10cc - Headline Hustler (1973)
From 10cc's debut LP - the British press has always been ripe for parody.
If your brother's wearing dresses And your neighbour's swapped his wife Well, I'm gonna make the headlines With your private life

Wallpapers…… I made the Graham one for myself a while back and then made the rest today waiting nervously for an internship interview. They are pretty basic but hopefully someone else likes them!

A collection of quotes in which Eric Stewart describes Paul McCartney reacting to the death of John Lennon, approximately three months later.
McCartney and Wonder continued their collaboration in England, going into Eric Stewart’s Strawberry South Studios to work on a co-written song, ‘What’s That You’re Doing?’ During the session Paul fell into a lugubrious mood. Recalls Stewart: "He said, ‘I’ve just realised that John has gone. John’s gone. He’s dead and he’s not coming back.’ And he looked completely dismayed, like shocked at something that had just suddenly hit [him]. I said, 'Well, it’s been a few weeks now.’ He said, ‘I know, Eric, but I’ve just realised.’ It was one of those things maybe he wanted to say something to him, but it was too late to say it then."

Then one afternoon, probably a few months into 1981, he looked up at Eric Stewart, the 10cc cofounder he’d called in to help with backing vocals, and was suddenly stricken with horror. “You know, John’s dead,” Paul said. “John’s dead. It’s just hit me. He’s not around anymore.” Stewart gazed back into Paul’s eyes and tried to think of something reasonable to say in response. “I just nodded,” he recalls. “He looked quite sad and shocked. I think it just came home to him that this guy he had done so much with just wasn’t around anymore.”

Q: Another thing that must have been quite difficult, I guess – correct me if I’m wrong – but the timeline suggests you would have been in the studio in early ’81 when John had just died?
STEWART: Yeah. It was interesting, it was very, very sad, and I was working with Paul actually down at Strawberry South at the time, we were doing Stevie Wonder and he’d written a song with Paul, I think it was the Tug of War album, yeah, What’s That You’re Doing. And we had his girl backing group there, Wonderlove, who were doing the most wonderful vocals. Paul’s sitting there, just looking very, very strangely, just looking into the distance, and I said ‘Are you okay?’, and he said ‘Yeah’, he said ‘Do you know, I’ve just realised that John is really gone and I’m never going to see him again’, and I said ‘Bloody hell, you’re right, wow. You must be feeling it a hell of a lot more than I will'.  He said ‘Yeah, it’s so sad’, but I don’t know what was going on between them at that point in time, but obviously there were big fallings out with the Beatles anyway, as you’re probably well aware.

During these sessions [for What’s That You’re Doing?] Paul and I were in the control room one morning, just the two of us, and he looked a bit distant and withdrawn. I asked him if he was OK, and he suddenly said, ‘Yeah, I’m fine Eric, I was just thinking that John’s really gone, and I won’t ever be seeing him again!’

By: Rikki Schlott
Published: Aug 4, 2023
Florida State University criminology professor Eric Stewart was a guru of the claim that “systemic racism” infests America’s police and American society.
Now he’s out of a job on account of “extreme negligence” in his research.
The academic was fired after almost 20 years of his data — including figures used in an explosive study, which claimed the legacy of lynchings made whites perceive blacks as criminals, and that the problem was worse among conservatives — were found to be in question.
College authorities said he was being fired for “incompetence” and “false results.”
Among the studies he has had to retract were claims that whites wanted longer sentences for blacks and Latinos.
To date, six of Stewart’s articles published in major academic journals like Criminology and Law and Society Review between 2003 and 2019 have been fully retracted after allegations the professor’s data was fake or so badly flawed it should not have been published.
The professor’s termination came four years after his former graduate student Justin Pickett blew the whistle on his research.
Tumblr media
Pickett said they had worked together in 2011 researching whether the public was demanding longer sentences for black and Hispanic criminals as those minority populations grew, with the paper claiming they did. But Stewart had fiddled the sample size to deliver that result when the real research did not, Pickett said.
When the investigation into Stewart began in 2020, he claimed he was the victim and that Pickett “essentially lynched me and my academic character.”
After sixteen years as a professor of criminology at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Provost James Clark formally notified Stewart he was being terminated in a July 13 letter.
“I do not see how you can teach our students to be ethical researchers or how the results of future research projects conducted by you could be deemed as trustworthy,” Clark wrote to Stewart, who has been absent from his role since March.
Clark said as well as the six officially retracted studies, other work by Stewart was “in doubt.”
The retracted studies looked into contentious social issues, like whether the public perceives black and Latino people as threats and the role of racial discrimination in America’s criminal justice system.
One 2019 study, which has been retracted, suggested historical lynchings make white people today perceive black people as threats.
Stewart floated the idea “that this effect will be greater among whites… where socioeconomic disadvantage and political conservatism are greater.” 
Another retracted 2018 study suggested that white Americans view black and Latino people as “criminal threats,” and suggested that perceived threat could lead to “state-spon.sored social control.”
And in a third, Stewart claimed Americans wanted tougher sentences for Latinos because their community was increasing in numbers and becoming more economically successful.
Tumblr media
[ Some of Stewart’s research’s flawed data exaggerated the role race plays in the criminal justice system. ]
“Latino population growth and perceived Latino criminal and economic threat significantly predict punitive Latino sentiment,” he concluded in the 2015 study, which has now been retracted.
Stewart’s research also delved into the relationship between incarceration and divorce, street violence, the impact of tough neighborhoods on adolescents, whether street gardens reduce crime, and how race impacts student discipline in schools.
But the disgraced professor was able to rise to prominence as an influencer in his field despite his studies from as early as 2003 now being retracted.
Stewart was a widely-cited scholar, with north of 8,500 citations by other researchers, according to Google Scholar — a measure of his clout as an academic.
He was vice president and fellow at the American Society of Criminology, who honored him as one of four highly distinguished criminologists in 2017.
He was also a W.E.B. DuBois fellow at the National Institute of Justice.
The professor received north of $3.5 million in grant support from major organizations and taxpayer-funded entities, according to his resume.
The Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, the National Science Foundation, which is an arm of the federal government, and the National Institute of Justice, which is run by the Department of Justice, have all funneled money into research Stewart presided over.
The National Institute of Mental Health, a branch of the NIH, poured $3.2 million into research on how African Americans transition into adulthood.
Stewart presided over that initiative as co-principal investigator from 2007 to 2012.
Meanwhile, he reportedly raked in a $190,000 annual salary at FSU, a public university.
While there he served on the school’s diversity, promotion and tenure committees, giving him a say over who got ahead on campus.
He even passed judgment on students accused of cheating and academic dishonesty themselves, as a member of FSU’s Academic Honor Policy Hearing Committee.
The fired professor, 51, graduated from Fort Valley State University and earned his Ph.D. from Iowa State University in 2000.
==
Academic fraud has direct consequences. Aside from improperly obtaining funding, this kind of corruption directly influences society.
The riots had a body count and caused $2b damage, including to minority-owned businesses, many of which ultimately just closed.
Of course, the problem is that the exposure of this fraud won't stop those citing or using his work, since it's been accepted based on "faith" - "even if he got it wrong, I know it's true in my heart."
