Algorithm Aversion - Why people don't follow the model! [Alpha Architect]
There are many studies showing that models beat experts, including the meta-study "Clinical versus mechanical prediction: A meta-analysis" by Grove et al. (2000). However, given this knowledge that models beat experts, forecasters still prefer to use the human (expert) prediction as opposed to

Bad penalties, bad defence, bad Hank, bad coaching
decisions and a really bad fourth quarter led to one inevitable
conclusion: a bad Ticats loss to a bad Winnipeg team.
Hamilton fell 34-12 to the Bombers on Friday night, in a game with few redeeming qualities for the visiting squad.
The Bombers opened the scoring after Buck Pierce, returning to action
after missing eight games with a foot injury, hit Terrence Edwards for
37-yard gain and set up shop inside the Ticat ten-yard line. The
Hamilton defence held to force a short Justin Palardy field goal and
Winnipeg led 3-0.
With the wind steady at 45 km/h an hour at game time – and gusting to 55
– the Ticat kickers did an excellent job in the opening quarter against
the wind. Punter Josh Bartel bombed two punts and Luca Congi buried a
37-yarder to tie the game at three after 15 minutes.
After Palardy hit another trey early in the second frame to restore the
Bomber lead, Winnipeg got the first turnover of the game when Andy
Fantuz fumbled near midfield after catching a short pass. Palardy turned
that miscue into points when he hit from 31 yards to make it 9-3.
The kick-fest continued when Congi buried his 17th straight attempt,
this one from 39 to cut into the Bomber lead. But the Ticats took a
number of bad penalties that cost them chances to score points with the
wind. A roughing the passer call and another infraction for bumping
punter Mike Renaud – both were borderline – extended Bomber drives.
The penalties – 75 yards in the first half alone – also limited the time
the Ticats had the ball with the wind, less than five minutes in the
second quarter.
Hamilton started the third with the ball, the wind and field position
inside Bomber territory. A toss from Burris to Sam Giguere turned into a
31-yard gain but the red zone offence – a trouble spot this season –
sputtered again and Congi kicked his third of the night to knot the game
at nine.
More Ticat penalty trouble. After an offside penalty kept the Bomber
drive alive, Pierce completed two long passes and got more help from
Hamilton infractions for face mask, too many men and two more offside
penalties. Short yardage quarterback Alex Brink finally ran it in from
the one – the Bombers first offensive TD in four games – and Winnipeg
led 16-9.
With time winding down in the third, Hamilton coach George Cortez
elected not to go for it on third-and-one inside Bomber territory,
electing instead for a 47-yard field goal try. Congi nailed it but the
Ticats started the fourth trailing 16-12 – and going into the wind for
the final 15 minutes.
Shoddy run defence – an issue with the Ticats all season – was the next
trouble spot, as Bomber running back Chad Simpson rumbled for gains of
30 and 18 on a drive that eventually stalled on the Hamilton five. But
Palardy's chippie restored the seven point lead with just over ten to
Then, the dagger: an eight-play, 71 yard drive that ended with a Pierce
touchdown pass to Kito Poblah and a 26-12 lead with under three minutes
left. With the wind their faces and the offence in neutral, the Ticats
weren't coming back. The rest was gravy.
Want some more bad news? With the loss, the Ticats fall to 4-8 and will
now spend the weekend scoreboard watching to determine how bad the
fallout will be. Wins by both Saskatchewan and Edmonton could move them
two games clear in the race for last playoff spot in the East Division
(via the crossover) with six games remaining. Winnipeg is now just a
game back with at 3-9.
And it doesn't get much easier: Montreal comes to town next Friday.
Notes: Friday's contest was the 1,000 regular season Ticats game since
the 1950 merger. The team is now 476-507-17 thus far ... attendance was
announced at 26,577 but that was clearly the number of tickets sold as
the crowd on a chilly Winnipeg evening was much smaller.

How significant are these changes? Currently there are 17 items that can be traded among players; after the update, that number skyrockets to over 300. With the addition of crafted equipment, troop customization increases from eight basic troop types to include thousands of possibilities. Other changes include over 50 new special resource types, nine new mounts, 72 new weapons, 53 new armor types, 13 new specialist buildings, and 187 new technologies to research.
The sheer number of additions is not the only change. With many commodities being regional, potential business moguls will find that establishing trade routes and even creating monopolies will be profitable. If you enjoy economic strategies instead of just military, check Illyriad out.

Ahmes From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ahmes (more accurately Ahmose) was an ancient Egyptian scribe who lived during the Second Intermediate Period and the beginning of the Eighteenth Dynasty (the first dynasty of the New Kingdom). He wrote the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus, a work of Ancient Egyptian mathematics that dates to approximately 1650 BC; he is the earliest contributor to mathematics whose name is known.

Nolton Joseph LaFleur III, Shot By Metro Officer, Bayou Body Count No. 115
For the second time in two years -- the only two times in its almost 30-year history -- a Metro officer has fatally shot someone.
Nolton Joseph LaFleur III, whose age is unknown, was shot by Metro police officer Richard Hernandez on the west side of town yesterday afternoon. (Update: HPD has corrected its spelling of the first name from "Norton" to "Nolton" and says he was 29.)
Hernandez said LaFleur was reaching for a gun that was in the front-seat cup container of the Nissan he was driving.
The incident, which happened about 2:20 p.m. in the 6000 block of Fairdale, began when LaFleur was seen speeding and driving through a red light, HPD says.
Then things got odd.
HPD's version is this:
Hernandez followed the Nissan to the entry gate of an apartment complex. The passenger jumped out. (That man, Brandon Stevenson, 27, was wanted on a robbery warrant out of Arkansas and was arrested.)
Hernandez approached the car on the driver's side and says he saw the gun and told LaFleur to put up his hands.
And then:
The complex gate then opened and Stevenson ran into the complex. Lafleur put his vehicle in reverse, backed the car around the patrol vehicle, continued in reverse on Fairdale and backed the Nissan into a drainage ditch on the north side of the street. Lafleur then repeatedly put the vehicle in drive and reverse in an attempt to get out of the ditch. METRO Police Officer Hernandez then approached the vehicle on the driver's side and repeated verbal commands for LaFleur to put his hands up. At that time, an HPD patrol officer arrived at the scene to assist METRO Police Officer Hernandez.
Lafleur ignored METRO Police Officer Hernandez's verbal commands and reached for his pistol.
HPD says Hernandez told them he had been "fearing for his safety and that of the HPD officer on the scene."
He shot "several times"; the HPD officer did not shoot.
"As is customary in officer-involved shootings occurring in the city limits, this case is being investigated by the HPD Homicide Division and the Harris County District Attorney's Office," HPD says.
In 2009, a Metro officer shot a man near the Rice campus when, he said, the man had "lunged" at him with a knife. The officer was no-billed by a grand jury.
Update: Metro tells us Hernandez is a 12-year vet and will be placed on three-day administrative duty.

TravelPod Member ReviewsThe Inn At Key West
We booked this through Hotwire so we didn't know what we were going to get apart from knowing it would be at least a three star.
What a great surprise. This is a cute boutique hotel, the most beautiful pool I've seen on Key West, very clean rooms, comfortable beds and...best of all in Key West when you travel with kids...a quiet room.
Service was great.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
A fantastic room just like photos on their web site show. Staff very friendly, pool area fantastic a little piece of paradise. Rooms furnished with top quality products and bathroom superb. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay there again.

Historical Traveler Reviews The Inn At Key West
Loved Key West
After reading reviews here, I was terrified that my entire trip would be a bust! My husband and I took a 20th anniversary trip. We stayed at Marriot Courtyard on the Gulf and found everything to be wonderful. Our room was big and roomy and clean. We had a beautiful view of the pool from our room.
It did not take long to get in that "tropical mood."
We found the staff to be very friendly and met our every need. I would absolutely refer anyone to this hotel. One more thing, if you visit Key West, it's true what they say, you MUST get out on the water.
We had a truly wonderful anniversary.
Our Vacation Oasis
My husband and I just returned from our first Key West vacation. This hotel was MAGNIFICENT! The pool is wonderful. The shade around it is an unexpected welcome once that sun heats up. Plenty of space to stay in the sun if you choose to. The breakfast buffet was excellent, not only the food, but the staff. The rooms were very clean and you are within walking distance to alot of amenities that you might need, ie. grocery store, dept. store, restaurants, fast food, even the movie theater is right next door. You are not within walking distance to the downtown area (Duval St., Mallory Square, etc) but transportation is available everywhere (taxi's, shuttles, rentals, etc). We will definitely return to Key West and will most definitely stay at the Marriott Courtyard again. We can't say enough good things about it!
Great Vacation
We enjoyed a family vacation at the Courtyard. The room was very clean and the staff was very pleasant. Maid service was above average. I would highly recommend the Courtyard by Marriott on the Gulf to anyone. We stayed in room 223 which was in the main building. We had access to the stairs in the lobby and side stairs if we wanted to avoid going through the lobby. We didn't eat at the Courtyard, but did enjoy the I-Hop next door. The pool was huge and had shaded areas which was a pleasant surprise to avoid sunburn. The tiki bar was always open and we enjoyed sitting under the mist sprayer by the bar. The lounge chairs by the pool are padded which was also a good surprise. The pool and spa were very clean and the gardens nicely kept.
Outstanding value
Stayed for one night here. The room for 39.00 dollars was a steal. Front desk was very courteous, the pool area was beautiful, just a little too shady. Very close to an IHOP, shopping center, and movie theatre. I didn't see any reason why so many complaints. it was wonderful, a bang for the buck.
Save your money...don't stay here!
I stayed one night at the Courtyard by Marriot-On the Gulf Key West. Thank God I only stayed one night. I do not think I could stomach any more. This place is disgusting. There was blood on my bed spread, dust ruffle and curtains. How does one get blood on curtains. Everything about my room was nasty and gross. The pictures on the internet look great. Believe me it is not what you get one you stay here. Spend your money somewhere else. You will be very disappointed.
10th anniversary ruined
I have stayed in courtyards before but this one really was horrible, and not to mention that they pretty much put a dark cloud over our 10th annniversary. sure the pics on the internet look great but it looks very run down and had to always call to have my room done up by the maids, tv had no remote alll channels were not clear (snowy) bathroom door was falling off the frame. had no shampoo maid said they havent had any in over a week. mentioned all of the problems to front desk and they just kinda brushed it off with oh i'm sorry about that. but never attempted to make things right. staff is rude including bartender at the tiki bar. i probably would have had a better stay at a hotel 6...
A great value
Myself and 2 friends stayed from 4/22-4/26, 2004. We had a great stay. Our room was nice, maid service was excellent considering there were three bachelors staying in the room! The staff was very accomodating - the third friend met us down there on the second day of our trip, and the staff was very happy to set us up with a cot for him within minutes of our asking! The pool was great (a bit too much shade in certain areas, but not a big deal.) I don't know, I think the other reviews were a bit harsh. The first one was during Spring Break - I mean come on now. The other one just sounded nitpicky. It's definitely a nice place to rest your head after a day of living it up in Key West!
Great time; great hotel; great experience;
My companion and I spent a most enjoyable week in the ambiance of this property. Breakfast and lunch are some of the best you'll find on the island. I had room 118 walked into the garden then to the Bar then to the Pool. What more could you ask for in Key West. Honestly, some people who write these angry reviews are pathetic.
Would not recommend this hotel
It was spring break when we were there 3-8 to 3-11-2004. Just got home. The students partied outside our room. Called the front desk 5 times the first nite, also called the police. They were around our motorcycles. and ours got scratched up with the students sitting on them. We were told the hotel had zero tolerance for students partying. WEll THAT WAS NOT TRUE. The second nite was bad, and then the third nite was the worst nite of all. Managers told us one thing and did the opposite. We had planned this trip for almost a year. And they ruined it for us. We didn't get a break on the cost. I know they were on spring break, but it was also our vacation, too. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. We ended up having to park our motorcycles in front of the front door, so they would not get damaged. Also a car window was broken out in front of our room. They did not care about our vacation and could care less about the cost we paid to spend time down in the keys. They were rude and lied to us on several occasions, saying they were going to evict the students. And that all we had to do was call the front desk and the police would be called. Neither was done.
Not aweful, not great either
This place needs some renovations. It is like an old run down hotel.
the pool was nice. that was about it. just not what I expected from a Courtyard.

sounds like the oil seal behind the harmonic balancer.
2 out of 2 people think this is helpful.
This would more likely be the oil adapter housing located right behind the power steering pump. The adapter will be on the left side of the engine and on your right when looking into the engine bay.

Randy Jackson Gives Me American Idol Insight
"The legend!" said Randy Jackson as he approached me at the Lacoste penthouse party for his record label last night.
That's now the official way all celebrities must greet me or they don't get a mention.
(By the way, he was bowing and scraping, too. A nice extra touch.)
Anyway, I asked Randy if he has survivor's guilt being the last of the original judges still on Idol.
"It's wild," he said. "We had an amazing year. We brought the show back. A lot of people had doubts.
"I love Jennifer Lopez and Marc. I've known her for a long time. I love Steven Tyler."
That's a whole lotta love.
But isn't his approach on the show encouraging yet realistic?
"I like to inspire and nurture," said Randy, "with a stern hand -- but not chokable! 'Don't kill me!'"
Except for William Hung, perhaps.
Anyway, Randy was celebrating his Dream Merchant 21 label, with artists like the girl group Brunette (pictured below), who are rather fetching-looking.

"It's more like Expose," he replied.
I love Expose! They're legends.

Cat's Eye, Apple Pie Lyrics
Artist: Nazareth
Album: Exercises
(copyright Nazareth, Tiflis Tunes,inc.-ascap)
Cat's eye, apple pie, what am I going to do,
The woman I loved walked out on me,
What am I going to do.
Hound dog, bull frog, she just up and gone,
The woman I love has done me wrong,
What am I going to do.
Green beans, blackeyed peas,
What am I going to do,
The woman I love has let me down,
What am I going to do.
She's a delta queen know what I mean,
As mean as wildfire lightnin',
She can win and break the heart of any man,
She's the delta queen of New Orleans,
And she loved me somethin' frightnin',
But she left me for a dollar wavin' man.
Nazareth Lyrics
