Ahead of the premiere of S2 of House of the Dragon, here's an attempt at a design that's been in my head for a new family tree. If your uncle is also your husband, and the sister wives marry their children, stepsiblings become second cousins once removed, and it gets complicated quickly. I found that each character has to be treated alone, so after the incest continues this season, the challenge remains. In George RR Martin's world, Targaryens bred brothers and sisters for centuries to keep blood lines pure, making for an interesting family tree, er labyrinth. The books and TV show diverge at times, so this represents what has been shown so far on the HBO series. Milk of the Poppy and deathbed mumblings aside, a lot of drama could probably have been easily avoided if they just named the damn kids different names? But then it wouldn't be as treacherous of course. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bc7d4a3fb22a5557952f6df/1721910843213-5823NBPL1K1NQHKSK0YF/Screenshot+2024-07-25+at+8.27.21+AM.png Information Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bc7d4a3fb22a5557952f6df/1725993478369-EOVONTCFJTCKUHH0MWFI/SC.Insta.gif Information Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bc7d4a3fb22a5557952f6df/1748437575923-DGJ3XIF9OSJYQOLGA8SM/Snyder+ntroduction.Insta.w.ball.gif Information Design - Represented by Snyder Now represented by Snyder > https://wearesnyder.com/us/artist/msjonesnyc https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bc7d4a3fb22a5557952f6df/1761146123079-Y6N9KMMFPZ07AGO3K3BZ/Coinbasepost.gif Information Design October 2025 marks the 18th anniversary of the Bitcoin whitepaper, published by its pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto.

Cockapoos. Chiweenies. These dogs may not have serious names, but they’re a serious business. Known as ‘hybrid’ or ‘designer’ dogs, these canines are bred with a purpose – to optimize the best qualities of each parent. Unlike some mixed breeds, designer dogs are generally born from two purebred parents. Depending on the qualities of the offspring, one puppy can be like having two dogs in one. Labradoodles, for instance, were first bred from labradors (which are common guide dogs) and poodles (with a low-shed coat) to be hypoallergenic service dogs. Puggles – a cross between a pug and a beagle – usually have a muzzle of a beagle, which can eliminate breathing problems often associated with the short-nosed pug. Not all hybrids are desirable. Designer-dog critics says genetic experimentations are exacerbating the problem of puppy mills. For instance, when a puggle inherits a short snout from a pug and the hunting instincts from the beagle, it may not have a respiratory system that’s equipped to handle all the exercise it needs. These unwanted dogs often end up in shelters. Despite the controversy, designer breeds have made a mark on the $60 billion pet market by commanding high prices that often exceed their purebred counterparts. And so long as the market continues to demand them, cavachons, pekeapoos and schnoodles are here to stay.

So when Halsman set out to shoot his friend and longtime collaborator the Surrealist painter Salvador Dalí, he knew a simple seated portrait would not suffice. Inspired by Dalí’s painting Leda Atomica, Halsman created an elaborate scene to surround the artist that included the original work, a floating chair and an in-progress easel suspended by thin wires. Assistants, including Halsman’s wife and young daughter Irene, stood out of the frame and, on the photographer’s count, threw three cats and a bucket of water into the air while Dalí leaped up. It took the assembled cast 26 takes to capture a composition that satisfied Halsman. And no wonder. The final result, published in LIFE, evokes Dalí’s own work. The artist even painted an image directly onto the print before publication. Before Halsman, portrait photography was often stilted and softly blurred, with a clear sense of detachment between the photographer and the subject. Halsman’s approach, to bring subjects such as Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe and Alfred Hitchcock into sharp focus as they moved before the camera, redefined portrait photography and inspired generations of photographers to collaborate with their subjects. Narrated by Irene Halsman.

One advantage is they have more neurons than expected for an animal of their size. But there is still a gap in neuron number between birds and animals. It turns out, though, that signals traveling between densely packed neurons in a bird’s brain travel a shorter distance. So faster transmission speeds may compensate for the lesser numbers of neurons.

It makes total sense to me that America, with the seduction of a jackpot, brute force of competition, andunbridled capitalism, combined with life online makes us primed for this: the country as a Giant Casino. The author describes threats on athletes, rise in suicides, and range of emotions associated with gambling and prediction markets. One outcome is that Americans may think every game from now on is rigged, but if these predictive markets prove a viable social utility, more useful than polls or surveys or predictions by experts, remains to be seen. Putting down your own money on the strength of your convictions could prove more of an influence than anything. At the end of his year of gambling Coppins notes “it is reducing to the abstract money ventures that put distance between the U.S. and what’s really happening.” Sources: The Atlantic; Gamblers Anonymous; ProfG Media; Dune. 1-800-GAMBLER: Nationwide Helpline For Gambling Addiction https://msjonesnyc.com/maps daily 0.75 2025-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bc7d4a3fb22a5557952f6df/1554039932332-9Q2AK8LAWBRT96CEWR8H/image-asset.jpeg Maps Wave After Wave: Europe is facing the largest number of refugees since WWII.
