It’s a high fee, yes. But I thought he was our best player once he arrived. He definitely outperformed my prediction. I’m happy with the amount, especially with the long contract and amortization
@ChelseasTopBoy
That’s a little deceiving. You have to control for inflation. Here’s what the numbers would be today:
Cech - £46m
Terry - Academy
Lampard - £69m
Makelele - £88m
Essien - £117m
Drogba - £117m
Ashley Cole - £42.5m + Gallas
The new website for criminology’s qualitative journal isn’t compete, but the homepage is; plus all the articles have been moved over (though I need to fiddle with some metadata).

Is the English Channel available in the USA? 🤔
Does it have every English-league game?
Anyone know?
Please let me know in the comments?👇
My new book is now available to ship from the US (different “release” date from UK). That said, it’s Open Access thanks to

I know nothing about this argument, I’m not commenting on it. But I do think it’s proper to tag the person you’re arguing against, not screenshot them. Otherwise, it shuts down disagreement and growth. Which is to say, May I ask why you didn’t tag him?
@FOXSoccer
They can’t even communicate directly to the fans via their own account. Instead they treat this as a marketing opportunity for their partnership with Fox. Pretty sad honestly.
@FrankKhalidUK
That’s not true. I watch him for both. He needs to play and be spotlighted to star. That’s the difference. If he was English or Spanish etc, people would say he’s one of the best.
Ziyech too!

This is exactly why these stars come here. It was Thierry Henry, I’m pretty sure, who once explained how nice it is to walk through NYC and ~nobody knew who he was. Must be so refreshing.

I recently started developing
@CriminologyO
to provide criminologists with
1) an open access journal that’s...
2) high quality, from review to production to dissemination
3) free to everyone
4) with running costs incurred by a supporting institution and me
Pleased to share this editorial by Heith Copes. Gives a glance at what’s possible with visual criminology, and how it can be uniquely disseminated in criminology’s qualitative journal
Got the cover for my next

Btw, I’ve agreed to serve as editor of criminology’s qualitative journal. Radical changes in the works, especially for website and production value. Also, e.g., all articles will have explicit implications for policy and quant research. All info to be relseased in 2 to 4 weeks

Agree! We also need to be faster in deciding on papers. We should move to concurrent review, like law journals. The following site is "under construction", but here's a draft of how the qual crim journal will review when I'm editor

@jkangbrown
I commend all parties for their open practices. In criminology, access to a paper’s data and code is far from the norm. What I hope won’t happen is open research becomes synonymous with “gotcha.” Criminologists are afraid as is, the authors faced that fear. Research is wrong all

I’ll add: The ONLY difference b/t quant & qual data are
#s
. Data isn’t made objective by putting a # on it. “Objective” has a meaning: directly observable. Quant & qual data can be objective or subjective. Those dichotomies get wrongly conflated. It hurts criminology. (1/2)
@InsaneRealitys
I wrote a book about this. Not open access, so I won’t shill it. Takeaway: The massive majority of drug market victimizations are nonviolent; responses to victimization are usually nonviolent too. To understand why drug market violence happens, we need to understand nonviolence.
Criminologists: We need to be making the equivalent of this: actual things that actually do something useful, in the real world, for real people. Signed, Seriously

If an asteroid hit criminology and took us all out, only our moms & dads or partners & kids would notice. We aren’t needed. We’re not fixing stuff. We need to *directly* and *concretely* fix things with *actual science.* We need to get going before it’s too late.

@TranscriBentham
For aspiring criminologists early in your career or education: You need 2 or 3 specialities. In the future, every speciality will need to practice open criminology; not vice versa. (Any arguments against?) If expert in open, you’ll be desired by colleagues in every speciality 📈
🙋🏻♂️ This is maybe the most annoying thing I hear. Quantitative work often (guessing more than not) puts a # on subjective phenomena. That doesn’t make it “empirical”. 🤦🏻♂️ Much qualitative work (too little) describes/analyzes observable stuff and so is “empirical” to that extent. 🔎

If you have a kid, don’t wait to paint with them. The younger the better, as they’re still unrestrained and do great with abstract. This is a 3 x 5 foot painting by my 3 year old.
