With college bowl season just around the corner, football fans across the nation will be dazzled, not just by the on-field action, but also by the intricate "card stunts" performed by members of the stadium's audience. The highly-coordinated crowd work is capable of producing detailed images that resemble the pixelated images on computer screens — and which are coded in much the same manner.Michael Littman's new book, Code to Joy: Why Everyone Should Learn a Little Programming, is filled with similar examples of how the…

Combs’ version of Chapman’s song has been a radio juggernaut and marks its third consecutive…

“Aye, who’s dog is that?” It was an important question posed by a woman waiting at a crosswalk outside BMO Stadium on Saturday night. In a sea of people rocking skirts the size of dinner napkins and gold chains that could haul a broken-down Escalade, there was a lone German shepard wandering the street. Was it searching for its owner or, like the hundreds of people it was trotting past, waiting to descend into the maximum pura peda ensuing inside L.A. Football Club’s home turf, where Mexican banda Fuerza Regida was…
