Big Data
Digital technologies have irrevocably changed business in recent years, and life in the era of big data inherently signifies that business decisions may never again lack for data.
But this big-data age, where crunching petabytes isn't uncommon and compute can be purchased on-demand, is just "the warm-up act," according to Andrew McAfee, co-author of "The Second Machine Age: Work, Progress and Prosperity in the Age of Machines.""
"We're nowhere near done with innovation and transformation, and I firmly believe during our lifetimes, we'll witness the biggest transformation since the Industrial Revolution," said McAfee, speaking at VMWare's Government Innovation Summit on March 6. McAfee is a principal research scientist at the MIT Sloan School of Management.
"The Industrial Revolution helped us overcome the limitations of our muscles. We are now overcoming the limitations of our minds," McAfee said. "Over the next 50 years economies will go through the biggest change since the Industrial Revolution."
Having ridden in Google's autonomous car and hung out with Baxter, a robot billed to have behavior-based common sense, McAfee said advances in digital technology, robotics and automation are beginning to change the world.
The changes have been rapid, limited only it seems by Moore's Law, money and imagination.
Jeopardy champion Ken Jennings was defeated by IBM's Watson less than two decades after former chess champion Garry Kasparov was defeated by IBM's Deep Blue computer, highlighting an important point: humans can now build machines that are better at tasks outside of arenas like number-crunching. Machines have always owned number-crunching. Now they're getting better than humans at other activities.
Machines can produce and sift through increasingly deep seas of data as fast as people can blink, leading to all sorts of "weird performance changes" that apply across the private and public sectors.
But the biggest changes occur not from machines or people, McAfee said, but from the combination of people and technology. McAfee used freestyle chess as an example. While the fastest chess-playing supercomputer can defeat the best human player, that supercomputer is dominated by a team of chess players and a slower computer.
"[Machines and people] don't have to be head to head. When we bring people and technology together correctly, the results are amazing," McAfee said.
The most obvious example in IT of teamwork between humans and machines is the use of computer algorithms to make predictions and data-driven decisions.
McAfee referenced Nate Silver, formerly of the New York Times, whose data-driven model predicted the presidential race correctly in all 50 states in 2012. Machines are great at producing data, compiling it and storing it, but there still is no substitute for human ingenuity in finding what best to do with data. And increasingly, organizations are releasing their big datasets to "the geeks of the world" for help. Allstate, for example, ran a 12-week contest for data nerds in hopes of improving its liability predictive prowess. In three months, the data teams had improved Allstate's predictive baseline by 340 percent.
"In the era of big data that we're in, data is the lifeblood of science. It is how you get smarter about the world," McAfee said.
Because of this influx of technology and data, organizations and federal agencies face enormous opportunities. At the same time, they face daunting challenges handling the kind of disruption that's only going to make the IT world seem more chaotic. Government sometimes struggles with innovation because of its traditionally slow-moving procurement process, while technology seems to evolve every few months.
"How we react to [the disruption] will be the defining issue for businesses, organizations, the economy and society for the rest of our lives," McAfee said. "Let's not screw this up, shall we?"

Gritt Ryder
Dec. 8, 2013
DENVER, Colo. – The Colorado State women's basketball persevered over a tough Denver team at Magness Arena Sunday, winning 86-78.
The win is just the second for CSU (6-3, 0-0 Mountain West) in the past eight years, and the first in Denver vs. the Pioneers (1-7, 0-0 Summit) since the 2003-04 campaign.
After leading by as much as 14 points in the second half, DU's persistence at shooting the three mounted a near comeback, but a huge block by Alicia Nichols, who denied a career-high three on the day, silenced the Pioneers' rally with 31.6 seconds remaining. Gritt Ryder iced the win with six-of-eight free throws in the final minute of play.
"The 86 is a really good job by our kids," commented Head Coach Ryun Williams. "Offensively, that's quite a performance on the road in a lot of different areas. We got a lot of good stuff inside today, we got to the foul line a lot, not just at the end of the game either. It was from our very first possession."
Colorado State saw five players in double figures for the third time this year, after not happening since 2010. Ryder led the team with 18 points, followed by Sam Martin, who has played particularly well against the Pioneers in her career, with 14. Caitlin Duffy also tallied 14, AJ Newton posted 11 and Ellen Nystrom had 10.
Before today's matchup the Pioneers shot .333 from three-point range, and just .289 without the likes of their leading deep shooter Morgan Van Riper-Rose, who was out with an ankle injury. Denver hit its stride from the beyond the arc in the first stanza, converting an impressive .545 percentage, making six treys. At the opposite end of the spectrum, CSU made four from deep (21.1 percent), sinking just one three in the first half.
Where the Rams failed out in the field, they excelled at the line, with a season-high 34-of-41 (.829) from the charity stripe, including a team-high 12-of-14 from Ryder. The 34 made shots is the third most all-time in school history.
Martin was the first of three Rams who entered foul trouble early on, earning her second at the 14-minute mark. She was later joined by Elin Gustavsson and Nystrom on the bench, giving the reserves a chance to shine. They did, bringing CSU from a 10-point deficit at the 6-minute mark, to within one point at the halftime buzzer.
Foul troubles continued into the second frame as Nystrom, Nichols, Gustavsson and Martin were all hit with their third foul with just over 12 minutes to play. Gustavsson was forced to take a seat when she was whistled for her fourth at the 8-minute mark. Five players would each have four fouls as the clock wound down, but none of them would foul out.
DU's leading rebounder Maiya Michel went down in the first half after knocking knees with a teammate on the court. She did not return.
Colorado State will return home for a matchup vs. South Dakota Mines next weekend on Saturday in Martin's 100th career game. Tipoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. MT.

Jazz is not a four letter word.
Every year the London Jazz Festival tries to spread the jazz message to the masses and every year the festival gets bigger and bigger. Although I am not sure big does it justice – 10 days, 60 venues, over 2,500 artists and over 650 hours of live music!
It's too big to try and see everything, obviously, but it does try and cover everything from world-renowned stars at prestigious concert halls to workshops for younger jazz musicians just starting out.
One of the great things about the LJF is the amount of free gigs going on.
The Southbank Centre has a free gig every afternoon I think and there is also normally a free gig most evenings. Check the website for full and up-to-date details (as things change) but if possible I try and get along to the those shows as they normally feature stars of tomorrow. This year I am looking forward to seeing the Ezra Collective for free.
The varieties of 'jazz' that fits under the Festival umbrella is also impressive. For example, on Saturday 15 November you can go and see Jazz in Polish cinema, the spirit of Charles Mingus via Papanosh, South African pianist Abdullah Ibrahim, the funky modern brass of the Hackney Colliery Band, free improv at Cafe Oto, Afro-jazz-funk with Yaaba Funk, or London Brazilica with Da Lata.
I love that variety that the Festival has. Even if you are not a jazz fan like me, there is bound to be something you will enjoy.

Skinny & Scales (of Nappy Roots) - We Out Here
Artist: Skinny & Scales (of Nappy Roots)
Producer: Sol Messiah
Album: 40 Akerz
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 20 votes )
Once a hip-hop group's members achieve big-name status, it's only a matter of time before they decide to record solo albums. That time is rapidly approaching for Kentucky's best known hip-hop group, the Nappy Roots; though R. Prophet left the group to focus on his solo venture, Skinny DeVille and Fish Scales have remained loyal to the movement while preparing their debut as a duo, 40 Akerz. The first single, We Out Here, embodies everything we've come to love about the Louisville quintet; over Sol Messiah's easygoing organ beat, Skinny & Scalez bring their trademark Southern-fried style as they discuss how far they've risen (both financially and spiritually) from their origins. If you enjoy We Out Here, stay tuned to DJBooth.net for plenty more coverage leading up to the summer release of 40 Akerz.

A Boeing 737 operated by Ukraine's Aerosvit Airlines made a
rough emergency landing Tuesday at a secret air base in
Afghanistan, causing extensive damage to the runway and forcing its
temporary closure.
The flight crew aboard the 737-300 reported they thought they'd
blown a tire on take-off from Dubai, according to the Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation. When the aircraft landed at Camp Mirage,
somewhere in the Persian Gulf, the undercarriage apparently dug a
deep gash in the pavement.
No one aboard the aircraft was injured, but there was no
immediate projection of when the damaged runway would be
The closure forced about 150
Canadian forces who were set to rotate home to delay their
departure from Afghanistan by several days. Several other Canadians
were also affected by the closure.
The exact location of Camp Mirage, a Canadian logistics
base, is supposedly a closely-guarded secret. However, senior
Canadian military officials are fairly open about the fact that
it's located in the United Arab Emirates south of Dubai.

Originally written on The Sports Bank | Last updated 11/9/14
For some fans, it's been rather frustrating to see all those Greg Jennings Old Spice commercials and not see the star receiver on the football field. Due to a variety of injuries, it's been since September 30th since Jennings saw live action for the Green Bay Packers. With his expected return to the gridiron this weekend against the Minnesota Vikings, Old Spice's official facebook page issued fantasy football coupons in honor of Jennings. It may be a bit too late as many fantasy players are starting their league playoffs and if you drafted Jennings there's a good chance you're not taking part in the playoffs. He played in only three games and has 12 receptions for 78 yards and one touchdown. However, Old Spice is trying to make amends by offering a fantasy coupon "good for 17 fantasy touchdowns." Not sure where they get the number 17 as Jennings has recorded only season-highs of 12 touchdowns in 2007 and 2010. For his loyal fans and fantasy owners, Jennings conveys the message "I'm ...

It's been widely accepted that the mechanism by which the experimental drug ataluren appears to benefit walking ability in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is that it causes "read-through" of premature stop codons — genetic instructions that cause cells to stop making a protein before the process is complete.

"We are very excited by how our message is resonating with leaders in the field and their willingness to share their expertise with our members during our first symposium."
The Cloud Gathering Conference is hosted in partnership with News Corporation, The New York Times, Time Warner Inc., and Warner Bros. Entertainment, Inc. Conference sponsors include Comcast/NBCUniversal, Pitney Bowes, Bloomberg, The Walter Kaitz Foundation and the Minority Media and Telecom Council (MMTC).
DDN plans to roll out a number of programs in the coming year that address the needs of sponsoring companies, entrepreneurs, investors and other stakeholders. These include customized recruiting programs; leadership development; building the diverse talent pipeline by encouraging students and young professionals to enter the industry; and sponsoring national events to facilitate and promote thought leadership. Plans are underway to host events in Los Angeles and Silicon Valley in early 2013.

Sony makes deal with i network, whatever that is
by Bob Sassone, posted Jul 6th 2006 12:04PM
There are so many cable channels now - I think I have one on my cable system which is just 24 hours of programming about cheese - that it's hard to keep track of them all. Did you know there's an i network? From ION Media Networks. I've never heard of it, but they reach 90 million homes.
They just made a deal with Sony to start showing classic Sony Pictures movies and television series. The shows include Charlie's Angels, Starsky and Hutch, The Monkees, The Partridge Family, and Silver Spoons.
So, basically, it sounds like TV Land or Nick at Nite, only with crappier shows.

Queer Compulsions Talk by Amy Sueyoshi at the Japanese American Museum of San Jose
Pacific Science, vol. 68, no. 4 (2014)
Pacific Science, vol. 68, no. 3 (2014)
The book is divided into three sections. The first, "From Above, Working the Native," focuses exclusively on the narratological reconsolidation of official Roman Catholic Church viewpoints as staked in the historic (seventeenth century) and contemporary (twentieth century) movements to canonize San Vitores, including the symbolic costs of these viewpoints for Native Chamorro cultural and political possibilities not in line with Church views. Section two, "From Below: Working the Saint," shifts attention and perspective to local, competing forms of Chamorro piety. In their effort to canonize San Vitores, Natives also rework the saint to negotiate new cultural and social canons for themselves and in ways that produce new meanings for their island. "From Behind: Transgressive Histories" shifts from official and lay Roman and Chamorro Catholic viewpoints to the author's own critical project of rendering alternative portrayals of San Vitores and Mata'pang.
Theoretically innovative and provocative, humorous, and inspired, Repositioning the Missionary melds poststructuralist, feminist, Native studies, and cultural studies analytic and political frameworks with an intensely personal voice to model a new critical interdisciplinary approach to the study of indigenous culture and history.

I still find myself fascinated with the correspondence between John Adams and his lady. While My Dearest Friend is not the first collection of their correspondence, the collection, covering the entirety of the relationship between John and Abigail, is one of the most complete selections.
Gone With the Wind. The Wizard of Oz. Stagecoach. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. Wuthering Heights. What these great films have in common is the year in which they hit America's movie screens.
In 1932 a poem titled "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year" appeared in the newspaper, written by a local poet. The first stanza and the fourth read: Do you remember way back when / (Say, thirty, forty years) You never saw your sweetheart's limbs / But judged her by her ears?
What's the saying? One man's trash is another's treasure? Lucinda Adams recalls the day, five years ago, when she was led into a converted storage room in the old Kansas City Livestock Exchange building in the city's West Bottoms.

CAST OF THOUSANDS: Gillett Sings Carnelia Comes To Don't Tell Mama's 1/7, 1/14, 1/21
MAC Award-Winning vocalist ERIC Michael GillETT will present CAST OF THOUSANDS: Gillett Sings Carnelia for three performances only, Fridays, January 7, 14 & 21 at 7pm at Don't Tell Mama. He will be accompanied by Musical Director Jeff Cubeta, with Arrangements by Cubeta & Christopher Denny.
ERIC Michael GillETT is considered by many, to be the foremost interpreter of Broadway & cabaret composer Craig Carnelia's intricate & moving portraits of contemporary life. CAST OF THOUSANDS weaves a rich tapestry of song, as Gillett enacts the lives of the thousands of people with whom we interact every day, but may never come to know.
Now, 15 years after it was first performed, Gillett returns to the material that inspired his first songbook collaboration, in an evening that explores not only songs from the original production, but also new material written by Carnelia in the intervening years. CAST OF THOUSANDS will feature songs from the acclaimed scores of Is There Life After High School?, Working & Three Postcards, as well as contemporary classics ("Flight," "Life on Earth") & new material from Actor, Lawyer, Indian Chief.
What the critics say about Eric Michael Gillett...
"An idiosyncratic, fearlessly emotive baritone. His lack of
conventional defenses allows him to have a vulnerability
that most male singers prefer to conceal."
Stephen Holden, NY Times
"Gillett is an exceptional performer who is present at
every moment, measuring each breath, phrase &
nuance in perfect harmony."
Sandi Durell, Cabaret Scenes
DATES: Friday, January 7, 14 & 21 @ 7pm
PLACE: Don't Tell Mama ~ 343 W. 46th Street/NYC
PRICE: $20 Music Charge/2 Drink Min. (Cash Only)

Letoaba: South Africa's State-backed electric car pioneer has unveiled a three-wheeler. Just saw some of the pictures, very interesting.
Creamer: This is linked to the Gautrain. We have had the concept of electric cars for some time. Eskom was promoting that in the 90s and the person at Eskom Carel Snyman who was doing that prototype, he has now linked up with a partner and they have introduced a three wheeler, which is an interesting concept because what he wants to do is have this electric vehicle at the various stations that the Gautrain is now going to implement. We saw the Gautrain coming in from OR Tambo to Sandton.
The next leg is the Pretoria to Johannesburg, which should be finished towards the end of 2010. So the idea is that someone in Pretoria may take their own vehicle to the Pretoria station then they will travel by train, say to Sandton, available in Sandton will be a pool of three wheeler electric vehicles.
They won't require keys or anything like that, they will use their thumb print, so it will be a personal identification. They will pay for these like you pay for your cellphone service and they will make use of these while they are in Joburg, although they live in Pretoria while they are in Joburg doing their appointments they can make use of these for their specific appointments.
If they end up in an area outside of Sandton, say they are in Rosebank, they then just add this vehicle back to the pool in Rosebank and they travel by train back to Pretoria, get into their car and go home. So, this is the sort of new thinking that is coming out the box linked to the Gautrain.
We know that the Joule, which is being developed in Cape Town is begin prototyped already and is probably going to be on the roads as we have this 2010 World Cup. That has been State-backed as well, you know you and I as tax-payers have helped to finance that through the Science and Technology grants. We see that there is this groundswell towards electric cars even from the commercial producers, all talking about producing electric cars in the future.
Letoaba: The search is on for 5 000 MW of electricity relief by 2016. Is this possible?
Creamer: You know, they have been talking about demand side management for a long time, that means getting people to use less electricity. It takes a long time to build a power station. Just look at Medupi in Limpopo, it started construction in 2007, the first electricity to come out of the first unit of that is only going to be in 2012.
Then it will be finally completed at the end of 2015 and it costs an arm and a leg, R125-billion for that. What they are saying is that we can build a virtual power station, not a real one, but a virtual one, by managing demand. The target now is to try and manage demand down by 5 000 MW, so you use 5 000 MW less.
South Africans have been talking about this for a long time, but finally a draft is going to be out at the end of this month that will crystallise all these ideas that have been coming in and formalise them into a plan so that it can be worked.
We can see they are looking at further incentives for people using solar geysers, further incentives for efficient lighting, but going right through a whole spectrum of activities even trying to shift the demand peaks and manage demand peaks in order to cut down on that electricity.
Then, on the other supply side, encouraging own generation. We saw a mine down in the Free State already wanting to generate its own electricity for own use and municipalities also becoming more involved in power generation.
The whole idea of independent power producers, as well, coming through five different supply side actions, but a lot of demand side actions, so that we reduce our use and consumption of electricity by 5 000 MW, which is effectively building another power station at a much lower cost in a quicker time.
Letoaba: Now, of course, this is one that we have been talking about on AMLive as well, Aurora the much-anticipated Chinese bid is now in to wrest two South African gold mines away from the financially troubled Aurora. Tell us more about this.
Creamer: You know we have had a lot of trouble with these goldmines, Grootvlei and Orkney. The only part of Pamodzi Gold, which was liquidated that has come out well is President Steyn and that was because it was bought by a well-known gold miner Harmony Gold, that knows how to deal with gold mining and knows how to carry this on.
We must realise that we are dealing here with national patrimony, the actual mining licences issued by the State. The State is the custodian. So, we need to look after these precious mines, even though these are marginal mines. We have had a lot of trouble with these.
We saw Aurora Empowerment Systems coming in and they had big high profile names like the Zumas and the Mandelas were in there in a big way. They were backed by a Malaysian funder who didn't come to the party. Now, all of a sudden they are underfunded.
They have got an alternative funder now which is a Swiss funder coming in with R700-million, but only if they can list on the Stock Exchange will those funds be triggered. So, they are accelerating their plan to get on the exchange, the liquidators are happy with the time cycle, but now coming in to steal it away from them, even though we have got these big names there, it hasn't sort of inhibited the Chinese from coming in with a local partner.
The name is Virgile Asian Mining Consortium and they are linked also to the Hong Kong listed Grand TG Gold. They have now put in a bid, which is not a very high price, it is $51,5-million for the assets. Two of these assets which is Grootvlei, which has got a lot of problems.
It not only has water problems, but it is hedged which means its sold its gold forward at a low price. Orkney is also not operating at the moment, so they are buying very stressed assets, but one would have thought they would have offered a little bit more. It is $51,5-million, but the big thing is not so much the price that they offer now, but what money are they going to inject into that.
That is going to be the important thing, because we see people haven't been paid and there is a lot of union unhappiness. People also threatening to walk off the job at the moment and those are key people who see to the water situation.
They are like little Dutch boy with a finger in the Dyke, if they pull that finger out we can have a lot of trouble, so this needs to be sorted out. Maybe such an issue should go be beyond the liquidators, the liquidators now faced with another bid, it creates a lot of confusion.
Perhaps we need a Parliamentary Portfolio Committee to sit down and to listen what are people going to do with this mines, because after all this is national patrimony, there is a lot of jobs and hardship and hurt involved. So one hopes that they can sort this problem out with the Orkney and Grootvlei mines in the hands currently of Aurora, but wanting to take that away now are the Chinese.
Letoaba: Thanks very much. Martin Creamer is publishing editor of Engineering News and Mining Weekly, he'll be back with us at the same time next week.

Watch A Farm Representative Punch A Union Organizer Right In The Face
A representative from the North Carolina Growers Association, a group that provides guest worker labor, punched a labor organizer in the face last week.
The fight started after the union liaison for the growers association, Paul Saffle, read aloud the names of workers he said had applied for benefits through a union group, the Farm Labor Organizing Committee.
A division of the AFL-CIO, the Farm Labor Organizing Committee has been advocating for changes to working conditions for the people who work through the North Carolina Growers Association over the past several years. The Growers Association provides workers, in part, who come to the U.S. from countries like Mexico on visas to work seasonally.
While Saffle was reading the names, he was approached by Oscar Sanchez, an organizer for FLOC, who first attempted to correct Saffle's pronunciation of the one of the worker's names, but then pressed the issue further.
"What are you going to fix, man? What are you going to fix?" Sanchez said, based on a translation of the video by BuzzFeed.
That's when Saffle threw the punch, landing square on Sanchez's right cheek.
"It's clear that you were threatening me," Saffle said.
"I didn't threaten you," Sanchez responded. "I'm relaxed."
