ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to battery operated hand flashlights wherein the body is formed from two moulded parts connected together by a snap t. The flashlight has a moulded reflector which is integral with a socket receiving the flashlight bulb.
This invention relates to lamps and especially to hand lamps of the kind operated by dry cell batteries as known as flashlights.
According to one aspect of the invention there is provided a lamp comprising a bulb receiving socket and integrally therewith a reflector for a bulb when received in the socket. The socket and the reflector are made of a preferably moulded plastics material which is preferably polystyrene.
The bulb receiving socket preferably receives a terminal for the bulb, which terminal extends through the socket to the exterior thereof. The terminal preferably extends through a slot extending longitudinally from the free end of the socket.
Preferably there is further provided means for retaining the bulb in the bulb receiving socket. Such retaining means may carry a contact spring for engaging the end pole of bulb to retain the latter in the socket and to supply current to the said end pole. The retaining means is preferably a snap lit on the socket and preferably the retaining means has a tongue part which engages in the longitudinally extending slot to prevent relative rotation between the retaining means and the socket. The retaining means may preferably carry a second terminal which is connected to the extension of the first terminal through a make and break switch.
Preferably the lamp further comprises a dry cell container having an open end closed by the bulb retaining means and preferably the terminals carried by the retaining means are located to engage the terminals of batteries received within the container. Preferably the battery engaging portions of the terminals on the retaining means are identical.
The lamp preferably further comprises a lens for the bulb and means for holding the lens in position, which latter preferably forms with the battery receiving container an outer cover for the lamp.
One embodiment of the invention will now be described, by Way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGURE l is an end view of a flashlight of the invention,
FIGURE 2 is a section on line 2-2 of FIGURE l,
FIGURE 3 is a section on line 3-3 of FIGURE 1, and
FIGURE 4 is a section on line 4-4 of FIGURE 2.
Referring now to the drawings a lamp of the invention is in the form of a shaped iiat hand torch of generally rectangular section. The flashlight 10 has a casing having a casing body 11 which also forms a dry cell container and a casing cover 12, both the casing body 11 and casing cover 12 being moulded from high 4the other end of the slot density polyethylene or polypropylene. The casing cover 12 has a portion 14 fitting into the body 11 and this portion 14 has a raised bead 15 that is received in a recess 15 in the casing body 11. At its other end, the casing cover 12 has an inwardly directed bead 16 and slightly inwardly spaced therefrom a second bead 17 running along the shorter of the inner surfaces of the cover 12. A lens 18 is received between the two beads 16 and 17 as is a flange 19 on each of the two ends of a reflector member 21.
The reflector member 21, which is a polystyrene mould ing, comprises a pair of arcuate reflecting surfaces 22 which are joined by flat Side pieces 23 on which are formed a semi-circular series of stirations 24 arranged parallel to the axis of the curved reflecting portions 22. At its inner end the member 21 is provided integrally with a cylindrical socket part 20 which increases in diameter and is then provided with an extending skirt member 25. Within the increased diameter portion, the socket part 20 receives a cylindrical contact terminal member 26 having an inwardly directed iiange 27 that forms a contact plate for the contact ange 28 of a light bulb 29 which is contained within the bulb receiving socket 20 formed by the cylindrical extension of the member 21. The skirt 25 has a longitudinal slot 31 extending from one end and a contact strip 32 integral with the contact cylinder 26 is bent radially of the cylinder 26 to pass through the slot ,31 and again backwardly tn form a contact tag as will be hereinafter described.
A hollow boss member 33 receives the skirt and is provided with a recess 34 to receive a peripheral bead on the exterior of the skirt 25 so that the member 33 may be a snap tit on the skirt 25. This member 33 also has an inwardly directed tongue 35 (see in particular FIGURE 4) which is received within the slot 31 so as to prevent relative rotation between the member 33 and the skirt 25. The member 33 has fianges 37 and longitudinally depending members 38 which have feet 39 that engage against the underside of the portion 14 of the cover 12 to hold the member 33 in position. A small projection 41 is provided on each part 38 to engage in recesses in the portion 14 of cover 12 so as accurately to guide the part 38 in them.
The anges 37 carry two tags or strips 42 and 43 respectively by means of a rivet 44. rThe tag 42 which forms a -connector strip has a downwardly bent portion 45 and is then bent upwardly to provide a portion 46 which resiliently acts against the end pole 47 of the bulb 29. The tag 43 which forms a terminal strip has, on one side of the rivet 44, a portion 48 which is almost exactly the same configuration as the portion 45 of tag 42. On the other side of the rivet 44, the tag 43 has an upwardly extending portion having a contact edge 49 for engaging the part 32 of the extension of member 25 to form therewith a make and break switch.
The forwardly extending portion of tag 43 has a V- shaped portion 51 bent into it. This V-shaped portion 51 is engaged by a pin member 53 carried by a slider 54 that is recessed to receive an operators thumb. The cover 12 has a short slot 55 in which the pin member 53 is slidable from the position shown in full lines, in which the end of the pin 53 engages at the bottom of the V-shaped portion 51 of tag 43, to the position at 55, which position is indicated in broken lines and in which the end of the pin 53 abuts against the terminal so as to force the portions 49, 32 into engagement to -close the switch. A metal plate 50 is connected to the pin member 53 inside the cover 12 to hold the slider 54 in position.
The battery container 11 has a number of internal longitudinally extending projections 56 which serve to locate the batteries 57. At its closed end the container 11 has a battery spring 58 which can engage against either terminal of the batteries 57. Similarly the portions 45 and 48 of the tags 42 and 43 respectively can engage against either terminal of the batteries 57 to make contact therewith.
The flashlight which is a convenient size to hold is switched on and off by the slider 54 in a manner which is apparent. All the parts are connected together by snap connections due to the resilience of the various parts. It will also be seen that there is easy access for the bulb by virtue of the snap-on feature of the retaining member 33 so as to facilitate the replacement of the bulb during usage. It will also be seen that as the contact strips have identical battery terminal engaging portions, it will allow for reversibility of the batteries so as to Simplify loading of the ashlight.
The invention is not limited to the precise constructional details hereinbefore described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Thus, for example, the parts may be made from different materials, thus the casing may be made from any suitable plastics material.
What we claim is:
A lamp comprising:
(a) a dry cell container having an open end;
(b) a pair of batteries within the said container, each battery having a pair of terminals;
(c) a cover carried by the container at its open end;
(d) an integral reector and socket member carried by the cover;
(e) a bulb received in the socket, which bulb has two poles;
(f) first terminal means carried by the said socket and engaging one of the bulb poles;
(g) bulb retaining means closing off the open end of the said container;
(h) a contact strip carried by the bulb retaining means engaging the other of the bulb poles to retain the latter in the socket, the said contact strip having a portion engaging one terminal of one of the said batteries;
(i) a second terminal strip having a portion which is substantially identical to the terminal engaging portion of the contact strip, engaging a terminal of the other of the said batteries, the said second terminal strip also having a part in the proximity of but resiliently spaced from a part of the said first terminal means; and
(j) manually operable switch means movable to engage one of the two terminal strips to bias the two said parts into electrical contact.

Bulgarian Checkpoint Repairs Jam Turkish Border Again
A truck line has formed once again Friday at the Kapitan Andreevo-Kapakule border crossing point between Bulgaria and Turkey.
Over 300 trucks are currently waiting to cross the border.
Turkish authorities have issued an advisory calling on drivers to avoid Kapakule and use the other two crossings - Lesovo - Hamzabeyli and Malko Tarnovo – Derekoy. There is, however, a line of 150 trucks reported at Hamzabeyli.
The frequent congestions occur due to repair works at the Bulgarian border checkpoint of Kapitan Andreevo.
The World Bank granted a loan of EUR 52 M, which, in addition to State budget funding, is being used to expand traffic lines on the Bulgarian side and to construct a new administrative building.
Despite assurances of Bulgarian border authorities that the repairs would not affect the processing of vehicles, the works impede traffic through the checkpoint daily, particularly affecting freight trucks.
Traffic flow is down by half – from 1 000 trucks passing the border in 24 hours to 500. The repairs are supposed to take nearly two years.

Historical Traveler Reviews Mayflower Park Seattle
One of the nicest hotels I've stayed at!! Great location too!!
I really enjoyed staying at the Mayflower Park Hotel and I found the service staff to be very friendly. In fact, I almost wrote a letter to the company because I had such a pleasant stay there. The room was very big with a nice view of the city, and everything was in walking distance so I didn't have to drive anywhere. The staff even went out of their way to give me a cheaper price than I had already paid. I've never had a hotel do that before! The hotel itself was older but very clean and I thought it had a lot of charm. The connected restaurant was very good as well! All in all, I had a great Seattle vacation and part of it was because I stayed at the Mayflower Park hotel!
Not a good experience
The hotel is old, the bar is overpriced, the front desk people are unfriendly, the elevators take forever, there was pee all over the wall in my bathroom, the water pressure is horrible, the valet took forever, the pillows were rocks, the walls between rooms were paper thin, and did I mention the unfriendly front desk people. Need I write more?
You won't be disappointed
I've stayed at this hotel several times and it cannot be beat for service, location and amenities. It's a very lovely, historic hotel- a lot of class and charm. You won't be disappointed.
Mayflower Hotel tops!
HIstoric old hotel with upgraded amenities. Walking close to the Pike Public Market and monorail to Space Needle. Excellent service, very accomodating. Would recommend and stay there again.
Was not happy
My room, with a guaranteed check in of 4:00, was not ready until 5:30.
Housekeeping items were neglected during my four day stay, and a charge to my bill for in room emenities that was incorrect was dificult to get corrected.
Nice place but lacked atmosphere
The Mayflower Park Hotel is a great place to stay for families. The location is very central in the city and it even offers a family fun package with gifts for the children. The service was good, and the rooms were surprisingly spacious. The only complaint that I have is that the hotel lacked a unique atmosphere. It provided a place to stay, but seemed to lack the appeal that would cause a person to spend time in the lobby and other public areas.
This is a great hotel!
We selected this hotel for it moderate price and the excellent reviews we read. We were not steered wrong. The lobby is beautiful and the staff extremely gracious and helpful. The Concierge even managed to arrange a white water rafting tour for us at last minute and handled all the details. The rooms are small but clean and elegant. And, The location is very convienent. We could walk anywhere in the downtown town area. We will definitely be staying there when we return to Seattle.
Nice Place
Room was nice- bathroom was a little small. Great views and fantastic location. Would stay there again but would ask for a larger room.
Best of the moderately priced hotels
My wife and I stay downtown every year during X-mas time to shop. This was an excellent location, room, and service. The restaurant off the lobby was excellent and very good with the martini shaker. I thought our room was better than the 4 Seasons and at half the cost. My only complaint was check in and check out was slow, although not unbearable. Certainly the best value I have found downtown.
Fabulous Hotel
We stayed at the Mayflower Hotel for our 10th Anniversary. Staff was exceptional, from being greeted at the front steps, front office, bellmen, concierge, restaurant staff (Olilver's Lounge & Andaluca Rest.). Everyone on the Staff asked how our Anniversary Dinner in Andaluca's was. I don't know how they all knew, but we thought this hotel was (above & beyond) all others. We normally stay at Hyatt or Marriott which have always been good but the Mayflower Hotel is "one of a kind". The location is perfect, shopping so close & the Monorail to Space Needle is just out a walkway at the Hotel. Room was wonderful, we did upgrade from standard (small), but price difference was very reasonable! What else can I say-we are going back this summer.

Chalo Dilli…are we there yet?
As a wise man once said, it is the journey that matters, not the destination, and that certainly holds true for most road-trip films.
Think 'ÄúJab We Met'Äù or last year'Äôs 'ÄúRoad, Movie'Äù. Shashant Shah'Äôs "Chalo Dilli'Äù, starring Lara Dutta and Vinay Pathak uses the oldest clich√© in the book 'Äì that of two entirely opposite personalities thrown together on a difficult journey.
Lara Dutta plays one of the those characters – Mihika Banerjee, an uptight, snobbish CEO, who wants only the best in life and has no tolerance for anyone who doesn't live up to her exacting standards.
Thanks to a missed flight announcement, she finds herself in a rickety car, in the middle of a deserted highway with Manu Gupta, a gregarious saree shop owner from old Delhi.
As the unlikely pair tries to make it safely from Jaipur to Delhi, they face many disasters, encounter several memorable moments, including a shootout at a rundown police station, a shady hotel a la "Jab We Met" and a gang war.
Director Shah does inject some doses of humour into the film, and there are times when you will find yourself laughing. The film's length is just under 2 hours, but it seems longer, because several of the situations are stretched and don't seem plausible. It's just Jaipur-Delhi, you think to yourself, it shouldn't be this hard.
Also, the two leads try too hard to fit into their characters. Lara Dutta tries to marry the hoity-toity act with the oh-I'm-totally-changed-after-this-journey one, and fails. Vinay Pathak tries to be too outgoing and loud and doesn't leave with you with a lasting impression.
The twist in the end seems a tad too manipulative and designed to squeeze a tear or two out of the audience.
"Chalo Dilli" isn't entirely bad though. If you are looking for some laughs and don't mind having to endure Lara Dutta's half-baked English accent, perhaps you might give it a go.

Alternative sought to road work borrowing
Greenfield to explore options at paying for road improvement and construction costs
Greenfield — Going from virtually no debt for roads about a dozen years ago to a debt payment of $3.14 million last year, more than half for roads, Greenfield may look for alternatives for financing its road projects.
Currently, the city borrows for resurfacing and reconstructing roads.
"That's unsustainable for the future," said former alderman Tom Pietrowski who brought the concern to the Common Council before his term ended last week.
Richard Sokol, director of neighborhood services, said that as of Dec. 31, 2013, the city's debt stood at $36.9 million, of which roughly $23 million was for roads. The rest was for the Law Enforcement Center, the library, improvements to a fire station and the Department of Public Works garage, he said.
Until about a dozen years ago, the city paid cash for road projects, Sokol said.
"But that was not getting the job done," he said.
Because the roads were deteriorating, the city changed its policy and approved borrowing. The city has averaged about $3 million per year for road resurfacing and reconstruction, although that fluctuates greatly, Sokol said. For example, this year Greenfield will spend $5 million, the result of good interest rates and having a lot roads that need work, he said.
The money borrowed for roads has been appreciated, Sokol said.
"We've had $23 million in road improvements and they've been pretty well received by residents," he said. Property values sliding because of poor roads have been stabilized and people are investing more in their homes, he said.
"I think people value what we've done," he said.
But Mayor Michael Neitzke was doubtful that an alternative to borrowing could be found.
"We're using every option we have," he said, but the options are extremely limited. "We're looking all the time at cost effectively getting our infrastructure where it needs to be."
Pietrowski said he would like the city to use more of its state transportation aid for roads instead of using so much of it for operational expenses for police, Department of Public Works and other departments.
Sokol said the state expects cities to use transportation aid for these road-related expenses. For example, police have traffic control and accident response expenses, he said. The amount of transportation aid the city receives is based partly on estimates of those kinds of operating costs, he said.
When the aid comes in, he budgets it like any other revenue, Sokol said. Using more transportation money for roads would mean operations funding would be short. Because the state limits how much the city can raise property taxes, the city might not be able to make up an operations shortfall. The revenue caps don't apply to borrowing money.

From the Publisher"This book of cataloging examples is best suited for, and was intended as a supplement for, a textbook in a cataloging course. Examples are an invaluable source for teaching library science students how to catalog different sources. The cataloging course I took in graduate school had a similar workbook of examples gathered from the professor's everyday work in a large public library. This book would have saved my professor several hours of compiling, reviewing, and copying that information for class each semester."

Best Public Art (2008)
Pacific Nexus Gallery
In a town teeming with super-rad public art spray-painted across buildings, stickered onto scaffolding, dangling from power lines and hacked into digital billboards (yay, Skullphone!), who can say where and what "the best" is?
I can.
There's a building in Venice on the southwest corner of Brooks and Pacific that houses an art gallery of sorts, and is home to all kinds of strange, occult happenings. The outside of Pacific Nexus Gallery is home to a revolving, ever-evolving slate of artistic expression that beckons closer inspection, thoughtful reflection and smiles. A sticker series featuring cockroaches with security cameras as heads was followed by a herd of butterflies sprouting satellite dishes. In the passing days, the previously black-and-white butterflies attracted a layer of color, which then attracted a layer of glitter. Painted text that read "Kill Art Now" finished off the communal collaboration. The wall has since housed fighting zebras and unicorns and dead movie-star zombies and random gang tags and, my favorite, the chalk outline of a shade tree next to the words, "Lost. Have you seen my friends?"
Here's to more public art. Everywhere.—Dani Katz

Shade Cloth
Hello everybody, first time posting. I have a question about what kind of shade cloths I could use for my garden. I have a few piricicaba broccoli that I have planted and want to help out with the high temps that are coming to Houston. I also want to utilize something for some bell peppers that I transplanted too late. Any advice for a cloth to use? I have seen row covers that are more a white color, and the plastic ones that are more black. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I've seen shade cloth in multiple colors at Home Depot. They sell it by the foot, I think. How do you plan to support the fabric?
Shade cloth comes in % of sun blocked. One will have what crop and use each percent is good for. I have bought from Tec Supply years ago. . I would google "shade cloth" and look through the agricultural suppliers.
Growing broccoli during a Houston summer is ambitious. I would think the heat and the bugs would do it in. is this a particular heat resistant broccoli that I should know about?

I'm a fan (and you should be too) because... In 1996 I First heard slayer on MTV . A track called i hate you. It just hit me, so hard fast and powerful it ran through me . It drove me mad because i,m a determined person and later in life i saw dark days and a track like i hate you drove me on. For me there's such meaning and power in slayer's music, and it's today i came on to say i,m a fan because i,m grateful to slayer for such powerful hard hiting and driving metal, and i,m really loving WORLD PAINTED BLOOD.

Concord.org Five Lessons: A Taste of the Future, Today
This issue of @Concord features five ready-to-use "Lessons" that illustrate how interactive models and tools can fit into real classrooms today. Each of these lessons addresses important content that can be found in all the standards and frameworks, and does it by giving students tools with which to explore and interact. The lessons illustrate how sophisticated math and science content can be taught earlier and how generative the resulting understanding can be.
Foundations and opportunities for an interdisciplinary science of learning
In this chapter, we argue that the learning sciences are poised for a "decade of synergy." We focus on several key traditions of theory and research with the potential for mutually influencing one another in ways that can transform how we think about the science of learning, as well as how future educators and scientists are trained.

The CoVis Project: Building a Large-Scale Science Education Testbed
This paper describes the construction and research program of the Learning Through Collaborative Visualization (CoVis) Project. a testbed for exploring science education reform with telecommunications technology. The CoVis testbed is contrasted with other forms of cducational research in an "ecolo~yo f paradigms." which argues that testbeds are in fact a new setting for research with different requirements and challenges for the researcher. Two extended examples of telecommunications research ar
The Energy of Light
In this introduction to light energy, students learn about reflection and refraction as they learn that light travels in wave form. Through hands-on activities, they see how prisms, magnifying glasses and polarized lenses work. They also gain an understanding of the colors of the rainbow as the visible spectrum, each color corresponding to a different wavelength.
Web 2.0 for Content for Learning and Teaching in Higher Education
The study will provide a set of recommendations for the JISC, institutions, and teachers on the effective use of Web 2.0 technologies for sharing content for teaching and learning. This will be achieved by desk research building on JISC funded and other work already undertaken, and widespread consultation across the community through an online workshop. The desk research will look at both existing practice and institutional policies which can facilitate or inhibit the use of Web 2.0 technologie
Reactive Learning Objects for Distributed e-Learning Environments
We present a concept of reactive learning objects that goes away from the hydraulic view of e-learning and gives to students activity a central place. First experimentations suggest that this concept should be enlarged to include distributed computation, distributed storage and Web services.
The Climate Visualizer: Sense-Making Through Scientific Visualization
This paper describes the design of a learning environment, called the Climate Visualizer, intended to facilitate scientific sense-making in high school classrooms by providing students the ability to craft, inspect, and annotate scientific visualizations. The theoretical background for our design presents a view of learning as acquiring and critiquing cultural practices and stresses the need for students to appropriate the social and material aspects of practice when learning an area. This is fo
Cyclone in the classroom: bringing the atmospheric science community into the high school
There has been much discussion about the failure of traditional science education to prepare students for careers in science (Halloun & Hestenes, 1985; Rutherford & Ahlgren, 1990). Students may become adept at solving textbook problems, but they fail to apply the theories that are learned in school to the actual phenomena that the theories attempt to explain (Tinker, 1992). This is in large part due to the fact that students don't often experience phenomena in the classroom. They spend most of t
Opening an Hispanic restaurant
This lesson focuses on vocabulary and currency associated with food, restaurants, and menus. Students conduct research to create an authentic menu with a companion recipe books. The lesson culminates in short presentations and food samples.
Technology and pedagogy for collaborative problem solving as a context for learning

Selected Papers from the Kaleidoscope Convergence Workshop
To foster synergy between research on collaborative, mobile and inquiry learning and between different scientific and methodological perspectives (namely, educational design, psychology and computer science) and to strengthen the cohesion of the community, the Kaleidoscope network has decided to organise a âConvergence Workshopâ in conjunction with the 2006 Contractors' General Assembly in Amsterdam, Dec. 4-6. The two fields of collaborative and inquiry learning have bee
Multimedia and the learner's experience of narrative
This paper reports on research findings which show that the narrative structure of multimedia programs, or sometimes the lack of it, affects learners' comprehension, often adversely [1,2]. It also reports on initial findings from our current research which aims to develop a theoretical understanding of the forms and functions of narrative in interactive media, based on empirical research, and capable of informing instructional design.
Towards Collaborative Learning via Shared Artefacts over the Grid
The Web is the most pervasive collaborative technology in widespread use today; and its use to support eLearning has been highly successful. There are many web-based Virtual Learning Environments such as WebCT, FirstClass, and BlackBoard as well as associated web-based Managed Learning Environments. In the future, the Grid promises to provide an extremely powerful infrastructure allowing both learners and teachers to collaborate in various learning contexts and to share learning materials, lea

Be sure the access door release latch is vertical before proceeding.
Grab the white plastic tab and pull the battery up and out of the Unibody.
Remove the following eight screws securing the lower case to the chassis:
One 3 mm Phillips screw.
Three 13.5 mm Phillips screws.
Four 3.5 mm Phillips screws.
Release the tabs on each side of the chip by simultaneously pushing each tab away from the RAM.
These tabs lock the chip in place and releasing them will cause the chip to "pop" up.
Comments Comments are onturn off
Open back of unit, press two grey sides surrounding the chip, pull out the top (leave the bottom 2gb in) put in the new (4gb) chip; now there are 6gb of ram.
I just upgraded to 2 4GB chips. Works fine sofar!
That's awesome! I thought that I could only upgrade the RAM to 4GB (which is what I have now). Can you give me the type of RAM that you installed? I have this exact model MacBook.
Uh oh. I replaced my 2 1GB ram with 2 2GB. I turned it on and it beeps at me about every second, the front status light blinks in time, but nothing else....what next?
Sounds like bad RAM. I would contact who you purchased it from. If it was us, email support [at] ifixit [dot] com

World Cup Forecasting Challenge For Quants 111
from the kickoff-in-four-days dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
For somebody falling to the ground clutching their leg long enough to get a card thrown?
I mean, the financial market is still a mess and I'd rather have them working on the real issues we face. Or is this a quick glance at what actually always goes on at those companies? Are they nothing more than professional gamblers and don't care about their responsabilities?
For the record, quants rarely try to predict things in the market. That's left to people who work in econometrics. The main job that a quant does is to price financial instruments in a way that is consistent with the market prices of other liquidly traded assets. I'm being deliberately vague about what precisely is meant by "consistent" because that often depends on the choice of model, but there are also model-free results which require certain asset prices to obey certain relations: put-call parity [wikipedia.org], for example.
Worse than that, JP Morgan picked Slovenia to finish fourth. Ahead of teams like Germany and Slovenia.
...that's basically how credit default swaps work.
<spam>If you think you're good at this sort of thing, you might want to join the free online prediction game I run [scorefive.com]. There's a US$50k prize up for grabs, if you're better than these guys...</spam>
(Yeah it's spammy, but check my account ID - it's not like I just signed up recently or anything)
So quants are well accustomed to considering future events, designing models of the future and identifying critical factors that future outcomes are particularly sensitive to. So by considering future dependencies and what-if scenarios, and then attempting to measuring these outcomes, quants are well qualified to model what may happen in the world cup. Now we know there is major unpredictability in sport--this is particularly true for football (soccer), and more so in a cup-format tournament--so much like their analysis of CDOs and other funky products, don't be surprised to discover they are all wrong!
Just my tuppence worth.
