WHOA-LGERS   Milwaukee-based photographer Jack Long uses high-speed photography to capture the moment splashes are made in cups of coffee.  He won’t reveal exactly how his technique works, except to say that the technique employs “short-duration flash lighting.”  And perhaps not using decaf.  (Photo: Jack Long / Rex Features via the Telegraph)

“Milwaukee sticks out in another way: Civic boosters have mounted a major campaign to deny the city’s segregation. In 2002, a group of job training researchers at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, released a study contending that nationally recognized measures of segregation are “racially biased” and, using a new measure, argued that Milwaukee was actually the tenth most integrated of the largest 50 cities.

While people everywhere — especially whites — find it hard to talk about race, the methodological contortions undertaken in Milwaukee are striking.”
