The Bush-era operation 'Fast and Furious' allowed hundreds of US weapons to be passed to suspected gun smugglers, in the hope that they could be traced to Mexican drug cartels. But the US lost track of the weapons.

graaaah, it's like biker hats are impossible to draw from a front perspective.
No wonder nobody draws Jotaro from the front.
Hmmm. Maybe that's why Sombreros are so popular in animation, especially when anything Mexico-related shoes up. A sombrero is essentially the same from every angle.
You could always draw a character as wearingb a hat crooked-like or turned a bit sideways or backwards of something.
I mean, on The Magic School Bus, Ralphie always had his hat at that angle. Always.
I like both well enough, but they are very easily confused.
I don't think I've ever heard the term "New Pop" before. Could you explain it to me?
New Wave is a very broad term, but in England and other places during the late '70s/early '80s referred to bands like Talking Heads, XTC, The Cure circa Three Imaginary Boys and even DEVO who made very terse rock music with a punkish edge that was nonetheless not punk per se.
New Pop, on the other hand, referred to the boom of big-sounding, lavishly produced, frequently synth-driven pop and pop-rock that came out of the north of England (and to a lesser extent places like Glasgow and Liverpool) during the early '80s: Heaven 17, later Human League, Simple Minds after their third album, Duran Duran, Bow Wow Wow, and so forth.

ah, I get the distinction now
I love the former, to the point where it's one of my favourite genres.
I like some of the practitioners of the latter, although it's not one of my favourite genres.
I'm kind of curious about which one Gary Numan counts as, because he could lay a credible claim to being either.
I just kind of think of Numan as a synth-pop or synth-punk musician of the general sort. He was a big influence on a lot of New Pop musicians, but he was around too early and was a little too weird; likewise, New Wave seems like an odd label to put on him.
