It only gets worse: Ms. Dreiling states that if Dominick were certified as an adult and convicted, "he'd serve his sentence until age seventeen in a detention center run by the Division of Youth Services. Then he'd be brought back before the judge, who could suspend the rest of his sentence or send him to an adult institution." The provision Ms. Dreiling speaks of, called Dual Jurisdiction, is only a sentencing option for the judge. The child must be accepted into the program and convince the judge to impose it. There is no guarantee that a particular certified child will get this as a sentence. In the present case, murder in the second degree, the sentence is up to 30 years in prison. It is misleading for the public to think that children are treated with less severity once transferred to the adult system. In most cases, they are not.

Fur Away
Heart pelt: I've reached that age when I find myself asking, "What's wrong with today's youth?"
While reading the partial transcript of the conversation with Miss Missouri USA, 25-year-old Shandi Finnessey, it became clear: Their spoken "beliefs" don't match their "actions" [Unreal, "Shandi in Furs," December 10].
Since when is it more offensive to turn down a gift of dead animals than it is to stand up for your love of animals and refuse to accept the raccoon fur coat from the Missouri Trappers Association? Would Finnessey also have accepted a nice pair of camouflage pants from the Rwandan Armed Forces, who went house-to-house, killing thousands, as camouflage pants are coming back in style?
Indeed, if Finnessey really believed that beauty is more than skin deep, she would know that animals need their skin more than she needs a fur coat -- no matter if she thinks fur is "in" or "out" of style.

The spirit of fair (gun) play: I must say that I am impressed that a St. Louis newspaper has run such a fair interview with one of the most articulate members of Missouri's pro-gun community [Ben Westhoff, "Love the Gun You're With," December 10].
Tom Zenthoefer
The Brown Chronicles
One good ad hominem attack deserves another: This is a response letter to Christopher Jackson's response letter [December 10] to Scott Miller's letter [November 26] regarding...who cares?
Mr. Jackson, as someone who has had the great misfortune of seeing several of your shows, let me first state that you above all in St. Louis have no business giving an opinion on what qualifies as good theater, good music or a good critique. Scott Miller may not be the next Harold Prince, but he at least makes a very valid attempt at moving the St. Louis theatrical scene forward.
Now I'm not saying I agree with everything that Scott Miller stated in his letter to the RFT, but if you and he were telling me different opinions, I would no doubt listen to him before even entertaining the thought of listening to you.
Your constant need for self-importance through your banal music, your incredibly sophomoric lyrics and your disgusting amateurish column in that rag you're employed by make you nothing but a joke in St. Louis. If you truly knew your reputation in this town, you'd either move or be unable to get out of bed in the morning.
I, for one, am sick of your whiny letters every time someone has an opinion that differs from yours.
I am the first in a line of many people who would like to see CJ Productions permanently shut down. You give theater in St. Louis, music in St. Louis and most of all, gay rights in St. Louis, a very bad image.
Mr. Miller, keep up your good work. If there is a joke to be had in St. Louis theater, its initials certainly aren't S.M.

Not wordy, literate: Dennis Brown says Agatha Christie's Ten Little Indians is too wordy ["Another One Bites the Dust," December 10]. No, it's literate. I didn't find the script word-laden when I played the male lead in the show at Roosevelt High School in 1970. To the contrary, Mrs. Christie took seriously her charge to flesh out ten characters before killing most one by one. Like many of the great movies on TCM (bless that channel) and the plays of yesteryear, Mrs. Christie's play is dialogue-driven.
The pace of many (not all) of today's movies is dizzying, as if speed -- and volume -- are required to draw fans. That contrast doubled my pleasure at the Rep.

On initial install of software caused "blue screen" crash with windows 7. Tried re-install and same problem occured. Went to web wite and installed newest driver v6.2 released April, 2012. After that Ilink worked properly as advertised. Video and audio are of good quality, range is about 50 feet.

Nice Product1/31/2011
Super fast shipping!! Nice job Buy.com. Follow directions carefully. You must install on your PC first before connecting to TV. Once that was done, got video to show quite easily. Audio was not working and no help anywhere. You need to install another setup which installed some audio driver which allow me to select sound to come out of either PC or TV. After that, I was able to stream video and audio. Streaming performance was as good as direct connection to TV. Video/Audio quality using HDMI was better then VGA direct connection. Overall, very satisfied with this product.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

It's now official: the Pentagon announced Thursday it's lifting the ban on women serving in direct combat roles.
"If they can meet the qualifications for the job, they should have the right to serve regardless of creed, color, gender or sexual orientation," said outgoing Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta.
Later in the afternoon, members of the Minnesota National Guard said the change had been a long time coming. The reality is, women have been in combat for years now. During the decade long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, four women from Minnesota have been awarded Purple Hearts for wounds received in combat.
Staff Sergeant Andrea Drost has not only been deployed to Kuwait and Iraq with the Minnesota National Guard, she's also a perfect example of what these changes will do.
"There was recently a position that opened in Laverne, which is my hometown, for a human resource specialist, which is the position I hold here," said Drost. "I would have been interesting in applying for it because it's in my job field, it's in my hometown. But because but because it's in a field artillery unit, which is a combat arms unit, I would not have been able to apply because of the combat exclusion policy."
Out of the 13,300 member Minnesota National Guard, 16.5% is female, above the national average of enlisted women at 15%.
"It gives me a greater pool of soldiers to assign to all the jobs we have in the national guard," said Minnesota National Guard Director of Personnel Lt. Col. Matt Vatter. He added that while women in the Minnesota National Guard won't immediately be put into direct combat roles, there will be some effects sooner.
"This now gives female soldiers the opportunity to do those jobs in their home town, that they might not have been able to do before," said Vatter.
"The best qualified soldier is going to get the job, however, gender is no longer a discriminating factor, and so there's something to be said for that, we finally don't have barriers there," said Drost.
This will have an impact in Minnesota sooner than in most places. Even before Thursday's announcement, the Minnesota National Guard had been selected to be part of a pilot program with expanding the role of women in service. It will start in May, and while women won't be in direct combat roles, they will be in similar roles to what they do now in previously prohibited units.

Cooking and Baking
Cooking for one (person) ideas?
So I'm moving out of NYC after 7 years (tear) to Paris (ok, maybe no tear, but still) for a few years and for the first time, I'm going to be living completely by myself (no parents, no roommates, no living with the bf) and will be cooking for one.
I've always had issues judging how much one portion is when I cook and end up with a ton of food. I'm going to be working a lot (12h+ including most weekends). I eat pretty much everything. I'd also prefer not to make a large batch of something and eat it for days (i.e., chili / curry, both of which I love), but rather make something and reinvent the leftovers (roast chicken into chicken salad the next day, for example). Any advice / suggestions / recipes serious eaters?
Merci :)

Session U2: Quantum Cryptography and Quantum Communication I
8:00 AM–11:00 AM, Thursday, March 8, 2007
Colorado Convention Center Room: Four Seasons 4
Sponsoring Units: GQI DCMP
Chair: Paul Kwiat, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Abstract ID: BAPS.2007.MAR.U2.3
Abstract: U2.00003 : Twenty two years of quantum key distribution
Preview Abstract MathJax On | Off Abstract
Richard Hughes
(Los Alamos National Laboratory)
Following their 1984 invention of quantum key distribution (QKD), Bennett and Brassard and colleagues performed a proof-of-principle QKD transmission over a 32-cm air path in 1991. This seminal experiment led other researchers to explore implementations of QKD in optical fibers and over line-of-sight outdoor atmospheric paths (``free-space''), resulting in dramatic increases in range, secret bit rate, security and availability. These advances have led to, and been enabled by, improvements in sources, single-photon detectors and the deeper understanding of QKD security with practical sources and detectors in the presence of transmission loss and channel noise. Today, QKD has been implemented with unconditional security over ranges greater than 100km, over multi-kilometer distances in high background environments in both fiber and free-space, and at high (GHz) clock rates over shorter distances. In my talk I will review the key enabling advances underlying these developments of experimental optical fiber and free-space QKD over the past 16 years, describe the present status of the field, and compare and contrast different approaches to implementing security against photon number splitting attacks. I will describe some recent results from QKD in dedicated (``dark'') optical fiber using ultra-high efficiency, low-noise transition edge sensor (TES) photo-detectors, achieving ultra-long transmission distances, and unconditional security over 107km through the use of a decoy-state protocol. I will also describe progress in making QKD compatible with all-optical fiber networks, including the co-existence of QKD signals with conventional optical data on the same fiber. I will conclude my talk with a survey of the prospects for QKD transmission distances exceeding 200km, which will include a comparison of the various single-photon detector technologies now becoming available for quantum communications.

Step 45: How Big Were Those Waves?
That means this is a graph of the average height of the 30% highest waves. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_wave_height wpedia explains more]
Peak wave heights are higher than the significant wave height. We weren't sailing the canoe right near these buoys, so our waves were different. So the answer to how big our waves were, is "pretty big, just like it seemed at the time". Does anyone have the wind and marine weather reports for the first weekend in October handy?

T-Mobile Takes A Jab At AT&T In It's Latest Commercial
Just a little less than a half-year ago now, AT&T and T-Mobile's merger fell through, and the struggling T-Mobile was left on its own, with no choice but to pick up the pieces and attempt to rebuild what it had lost in the last few years. Now it seems that T-Mobile's Carly has gone from pretty pink dresses to a feminine biker in the newest commercial take that uses motorcycles as visual aids to demonstrate how fast T-Mobile's 4G is versus the current AT&T standard.Read More »

Burial practices in China
From early in China's history, society attempted to cross the boundary between this world and the next, calling on the ancestors of both rulers and ordinary people. Ancestors were worshipped because of their ability to communicate with the many gods and spirits on behalf of the living. Chinese burial practices had two main components: tombs and their contents, and ceremonies to honour the dead, performed in temples and offering halls by their relatives.
The Chinese believed that the next world was a continuation of this one, and so the deceased were provided with everything they would need. Different dynasties emphasized different aspects. For example, in the Shang and Zhou periods (about 1500-350 BC), the dead were buried with sets of bronze vessels, so they could continue their practice of offering sacrifices to their ancestors. In the late Zhou and early Han periods (fourth-first century BC), fine bronzes, lacquers and jades used in court life were buried, and ritual vessels declined in importance. In the later Han dynasty (first-second century AD), replicas of buildings and other aspects of daily life were placed in the tombs. In the Tang dynasty (AD 618-906), the deceased preserved their servants, ladies-in-waiting and military escorts in ceramic models.
Despite these differences in detail, attempts to recreate the world show that the idea of life continuing after death was a constant feature of Chinese belief, right up to the end of the Qing dynasty in the early twentieth century.

I've tried being a member at other forums that are strictly hardware or strictly gaming. it's just not the same. It's all so serious. Least here I can kick back in the open forum and see what everyone else is up to in their lives.
Also a lot of people dismiss the linux forums. A lot of nvidia related discussion in there. Probably the premier source of Linux/Nvidia information on the net.
I first came here with with a 'nvldmkm stop responding' (or w/e it is) issue. Once i read the MASSIVE thread on the issue i realised there were a lot of people here that share the same interests as me. My favorite is the gaming forum where i have posted numerous posts there and tried to blend in with the community, now i visit this site everyday. There are some great guys here and with every forum community there are a couple of A holes too.
On topic: I find NvNews to be upto date with everything hardware related and more, and as been said in another post 'atm things on the hardware side are a little slow'. Once X58 mobo's and Nehalem is closer im sure the hardware thread will pick up a lot more.

Down the Garden Path: Prep for next year's garden starts now
Goodnight, My Garden By Colleen Plimpton/Life@Home It's been a long, hot summer, but, thankfully, it's time to think about putting the garden to bed. Though the days can still be relatively warm, they are significantly shorter and the rays of sun much less intense. Not only is this a perfect time to plant and transplant, […] [Read More]

In early June of 2010 Denny noticed a cat hanging around the backyard. This yellow long haired cat was skinny, matted and very vocal but kept his distance if you came near him. Steve said it was probably the same cat he had seen sleeping up against the basement window one morning. One day while gardening, Denny noticed the cat coming nearer and nearer until finally Denny bent down and held out his fist, and the yellow cat came and bumped his head against it.
Denny mentioned to our neighbor that a cat had been hanging around the yard but that he was determined not to pet or feed it. The neighbor's reply was "How could you not?" The next day Denny came home with a bowl and cat food. He gobbled it right up, and it was beginning to look like we owned a cat. We decided to call him Farrell (which we thought a better spelling than feral so he wouldn't feel self-conscious about his name).
He was to be strictly an outdoor cat. Then we decided it would be better to feed him inside to keep other cats and ants our of his food dish. Cold weather came along and one can't keep a cat out in the cold, so he came in on very cold days and evenings. It turns out now that he is inside or outside depending on his preference.
Farrell is not a cuddly cat but will occasionally sit on your lap. He still is very vocal and likes to bump his head against us. He feels comfortable with us but is not terribly accepting of strangers. We always said that if we were to choose a pet, it would probably be a dog. And if we happened to choose a cat, it would be a short haired one. But we guess when your pet chooses you; the choice is up to them.

Monday to Friday at 19:30
Barça fans have the chance to catch 'ADN Barça', the FC Barcelona talk show that keeps viewers up to date with everything that's going on at Barça
'ADN Barça' is directed by Xavi Rocamora and looks at the latest Barça first team and club news from a different angle. The idea is to generate passionate chat and debate with a very definite Barça flavour.
The programme goes out Monday to Friday from 19.30 to 20.30 and is recorded in one of the Barça TV studios in the actual Camp Nou.
Along with the two guests who are invited each day, 'ADN Barça' examines the latest stories about the football first team. Training sessions, press conferences and everything surrounding Barça team are analysed over the one-hour of the show. There are also interviews with the protagonists themselves.
But apart from football, 'ADN Barça' also deals with the club's youth teams and institutional activities. At the end of the show, Cristina Collado looks at some of the other issues of the day that were dealt with in the discussion.
Also, on Fridays at the same time, Cristina Collado presents a special 'ADN Barça' that takes a good look at the latest events involving basketball, handball, roller hockey and indoor soccer. The format is the same as that of its footballing equivalent, but it is specialist reporters and debaters in each of these disciplines that are the guests on this new-look news programme on Barça TV.
Tuesdays at 19:00 and 21:30
'Promeses' is the ideal programme for people that want to learn about the future Barça stars before anybody else
On Tuesdays at 19:00 and 21:30, 'Promeses' looks back at the news and matches involving the Barcelona youth teams.
This show is undoubtedly a window on the future. From the prebenjamins right through the ranks up to Juvenil A and Barça B all of the teams are covered, and where viewers can see how the same wonderful style is used at all levels of the club.
This is the ninth season in which FC Barcelona's television station has been airing this show, directed and presented by Jaume Marcet. Over the years, Barça TV viewers have been able to see players like Messi, Busquets, Pedro and Thiago grow up, who have all gone on to become consolidated first team players.
Daily at 14.00
Every lunchtime the news programme 'Barça Notícies' looks at the very latest stories of concern to Fútbol Club Barcelona, including all the different sports teams and the institutional and social aspects of the club
The show is essential viewing for all FCB supporters.
The main aim of this programme is for viewers to find out what has happened that day, including comments by the main protagonists, the latest pictures of the different FC Barcelona teams, statistics, results and tables for all the teams, and highlights of any press conferences given that day. In short, this is the only news broadcast that focuses only on Barça and things that affect the club and it is broadcast directly from the Camp Nou.
Thursday at 21.30
Weekly program about club members, supporters clubs and the fans in general
Information service for members, supporters club activities and the latest news from the Club are the main ingredients of this program on Barça TV, called '+ Club'.
Closer than ever
'+ Club' is a weekly programme that presents the issues and news of greatest importance to the members, supporters clubs and FC Barcelona fans in general.
The programme is designed to be an information service and also includes short reports about the clubs' fan base, and will air first on Thursdays at 21.30, with repeat showings throughout the week.
It is one of the new products for the 2011/2012 season, which combines news, services and entertainment.
Apart from the news about the club membership, the programme aims to go that little bit further and be a form of communication that answers members and supporters clubs' needs and explains the stories and personal experiences associated to the Barça sentiment.
In-house production
The programme is an in-house production that will also provide information about tickets, discounts, offers and other leisure options for FC Barcelona members, supporters club and fans.
Barça TV offers the chance to remember some of the best programmes offered before on 'Replay'
A lively and sometimes humorous cocktail of how the latest Barça news has been covered on the channel's different shows.
The news headlines, the best goals, the funniest or most emotional moments from 'Porta 104' and 'Assumptes Interns', the best of the youth players from 'Promeses'... In short, 'Replay' is a look at some of the highlights of Barça TV's productions in a thirty minute format.
As well as its miscellany of Barça TV's production, 'Replay' also presents some images that have never been seen before, which were recorded but never broadcast, such as outtakes, amusing shots and off the record commentaries.
The programme is directed by Àngels Prieto and goes out on Saturdays, at 19.00
Mondays at 21:30
'Quina Penya!' is a show produced and presented by Llucià Ferrer and which focuses on the Barcelona supporters clubs around Catalonia
What are they doing? How do they live the Barça experience? Who are their stars? What activities do they organise? All of these questions are answered on Barça TV each week. Trips to learn about FCB supporters clubs and their values, sentiments and events.
The programme is informative but at the same time provides wonderful family entertainment. There is plenty of humour, but we also get to tackle human issues as we learn more about these people that have done so much for their beloved FC Barcelona.
Every Monday at 19:00 and 21.30
Barça TV takes a break from its frenetic work schedule to concentrate on more personal interviews
'Estació Camp Nou' is the channel's way of allowing members, fans and viewers in general to find out a little more about the sportspeople at the club through relaxed, personal interviews in a jovial atmosphere that tells us more about the human side of the guests. Other interviewees include some of Barça's most famous supporters.
The interviews take place on an imaginary metro journey. The future Estació Camp Nou, which will form part of the city of Barcelona's future Metro Line 9, is the venue for these chats as the train gets closer and closer to the station.
The programme is presented by reporters Laura Aparicio and Cristina Collado and includes regular sections such as one where fans get to ask the guests questions, the quick-fire questionnaire and the selection of a personal object by the guest.
Before and after first football matches
'El Marcador' analyses every game that the first team plays, from an hour before kickoff when FC Barcelona are at home and 45 minutes before away matches
'El Marcador' analyses every game that the first team plays. From an hour before kickoff when FC Barcelona are at home and 45 minutes before away matches, Barça TV beings you all the information you need about the match.
Xavi Rocamora presents the show along with Sandra Sarmiento, which includes in-depth analysis of the match and the opposition. Statistics, opinions from the coaches, the line-ups and pre-match reports from inside the stadium are introduced by Marc Guillén and Edgar Fornós, who are always as close as possible to the action and protagonists.
Once the game is over, the second part of the programme begins. Match highlights, press conferences and interviews with the players are televised and analysed from the studio next to the Mixed Zone in the Camp Nou.
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Wednesdays at 19:00
'Porta 104' is a documentary programme that tends to reveal the unknown side of the Club's players
Their daily routines away from the field or court, their hobbies and their families are some of the juiciest parts of these documentaries.
However, the show also looks at the latest news and, on some of the most important FC Barcelona events, the team has produced reports with exclusive pictures and comments from the protagonists themselves. The reports tell stories that the team has experienced in person.
The name of the programme is taken from gate number 104 to the Camp Nou stadium, where many of the Barça TV facilities are located. 'Porta 104' is an in-house production.

While they are nicely done, with appropriate variation in sounds, some may find that this is covering too much in not enough detail.

Pryor Faces More Challenges
By Alabama Public Radio
Atlanta, GA – The opposition continues for former attorney general and recent federal court appointee Bill Pryor.
Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy says President Bush's recess appointment of Pryor to the 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals may be unconstitutional. Kennedy also has asked the 11th Circuit to determine the validity of the appointment. President Bush appointed Pryor's to the bench on the last day of Congress's week-long President's Day holiday break.
The US Constitution does give the president authority to install nominees in office when Congress is not in session. Therefore, the White House says Pryor's appointment was proper.
If Pryor's recess appointment stands, he will remain on the bench until at least 2006.

Clinton's legacy
In a nutshell, she did little to mitigate challenges the U.S. is facing and achieve a considerable breakthrough in areas that matter much for Washington or its allies.

Gear Review
Functional and Durable
These goggles look mad steezy, but you can tell that from the pictures so I won't harp on about it.
I have ridden 5 days with these and I have zero complaints so far. They have a really good field of vision and no distortion. I have an XL pro-tec classic helmet and these goggles fit very well over that massive bucket...none of the dreaded "gape"!
I have only had problems with fogging when breathing directly up into the vents. (This happens to me with all goggles, and the EG2's are always very quick to de-fog afterwards.)
Also, these goggles are still in brand new condition, whereas most of my equipment tends to get wrecked pretty quickly. After a few faceplants the lenses don't show any scratches.
I'd say these goggles are easily worth the sticker price. I picked them up on whiskey militia for $60, which is downright theft.

Small World in which we Live
I just left the home of new member G-2, whom I went to see to buy some For Sale snare hoops. Through our conversation it came out that he is friends with the family of the gentleman I had for physical education in the 6th grade. In 1960. 51 years ago. You just never know who you may meet in the drum forum. And a great guy is Geoff with good skills, and lots of drums. Say hi when you see him.
Re: Small World in which we Live
It is a small World. Meeting Andy and Ben yesterday at the London Drum Show made me realise this. I got a text today too from a friend of mine that I studied with who has just been interviewed for a job and whilst she was being interviewed bumped into another girl who was on the same degree course in Lancaster; which is the other end of the country! The bizarre thing is that there were fewer than thirty of us on the degree course and two of them both end up at the same company.
I keep seeing things like this. It's crazy!
Re: Small World in which we Live
Indeed. Makes you want to do the right things so they don't catch up to you.
Re: Small World in which we Live
Now you tell me! Guess I have a lot of work to do now!
Re: Small World in which we Live
I suppose it depends how specialised the degree course is really. Also lucky that you can call your PE teacher a gentleman. I have many other words to describe who I got for PE but I won't.
Re: Small World in which we Live
Yeah it is really weird how many people are connected in some way. It seems often where I realize a friend knows one of my other friends from 5 or 10 years ago.

FORT WAYNE — A contingent made up of military veterans and Toys For Tots officials from Whitley County met last week at the Allen County Library to air a show on Access 21.
Locally, the program has been around nearly 20 years.
Last year, the Whitley County Toys For Tots program helped almost 600 children who otherwise, according to the press release, "would not have had a Christmas."
The show recorded by the local group will air at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 25 on Comcast 57 and Frontier 27, and again on Nov. 28 on those same channels.
It will air at 9:30 p.m. Nov. 25 on Comcast 55 and Frontier 25, and again at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 26, 7 p.m. Dec. 1, and 11 a.m. Dec 2 on those same channels.
Applications are being accepted to nominate needy children at the Eagle Quest Church on Ind. 109 in Columbia City from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays through Dec. 8.

Guest post written by Barry Eggers
Barry Eggers is a partner with Lightspeed Venture Partners.
We live in a world of ratings and rankings; from Consumer Reports and Yelp to polls and best of lists, you name it we've got it. Unfortunately for consumers, there are so many lists and they have become subjective that they lack any true information utility. Do we really need another "30 under 30″ or "Best Places to Live" list?
What's more, many lists are now the result of "paid marketing," further undermining their credibility. Are these really Road and Track's top 10 cars? Wine Spectator's top 100 wines? Conde Nast's top 100 resorts? Do we really believe these are the 10 hottest startups – or are they the ones with the most discretionary marketing dollars? Even financial ratings agencies, which we have come to trust with our money, have taken a huge step backward due to their role in the recent mortgage crisis.
Let's face it: the majority of today's lists are useless. Fortunately, we have the technology to change this. It's called Big Data – or more specifically, technologies like Hadoop, MongoDb, and Cassandra. There is a ton of hype – and I am sure a few lists – around Big Data, but the basic value is pretty simply. These technologies make it possible to capture vast amounts of data and analyze them in the blink of an eye. Best of all, it's relatively easy and affordable to use these technologies; companies can even rent computers in the cloud to run analytics for virtually nothing.
My partner John Vrionis likes to say that "data beats math." He's right. Google taught us that if we index the entire Web, we get much better results. Data replaces subjectivity. Sure, I understand sample sizes, statistics and extrapolation, but we live in a world where we don't need samples – we can now capture and analyze the entire data set. So why don't we take Sergey and Larry's bright idea and apply it to everyday life, bringing Big Data to the masses…
My hope is that data scientists, with the help of the technology now available to them, will make subjective lists a thing of the past and give us real information utility.
For starters, here are 3 lists I'd like to see:
- The most trustworthy politicians. Let's take every Federal, state, and local politicians record of everything they say or represent in public, run a sophisticated fact check algorithm in real-time, and come up with an "honesty quotient." We'll see which politicians represent the truth and which bend the facts. Republican or Democrat, I don't want to vote for a dishonest politician.
- The best and worst doctors. Let's measure every doctor, over all of his or her patients. We'll compute the number of days it takes to treat (or not treat) a patient for each specific illness, the accuracy of diagnosis, etc. and compare that against the entire data set. I don't think anyone should have to go to a doctor in the bottom decile. Forget ObamaCare, my healthcare plan is to take the bottom 10% of doctors and re-train them to be productive members of society in a different occupation. That will reduce our healthcare costs and improve medical care.
- The most reliable and unreliable cars. Let's track every type of car driven in the U.S., and record every time they go in for a non-routine service. We can update the auto reliability index daily. Want to save Detroit? Then let's identify the dependable cars and rid of the world of lemons.
Don't get me wrong, there are some subjective lists that I really like – any of David Letterman's top 10 lists, the best and worst dressed at the Academy Awards, and of course George Carlin's timeless "7 words you can't say on TV." But in this new era of Big Data, we now have the technology to create lists that truly inform society in their day to day decisions. This is, after all, part of the big promise of Big Data.

From the same Dutch BMW dealer presentation which yielded the 381hp tri-turbo diesel M550d rumor, comes the report that a "M135i" F20 1 series hatchback is coming next summer. Those in attendance were reportedly told about a M135i featuring 320hp and powered by the N55 inline 6 engine.
As with any rumor, it's always just speculation until officially published by BMW. But, there may be merit to this rumor. We spotted what appears to be an M Sport 135i F20 some months ago (seen HERE), so we … CONTINUED
