Finally, November 6 is here. Election Day has come and that means the campaigns we've watched unfold over what feels like a lifetime are coming to an end. And this has been an election season the likes of which we've never seen: It's infiltrated every last pore of our existence thanks to the deluge of social media outreach and coverage.
And it's not over yet. While the votes have yet to be counted, we apparently already have an outcome: Obama will be our president for another four years.
How do we know this? Social media. Statistically, candidates who have more Facebook Likes and Twitter followers tend to win. Three recent gubernatorial races went to the candidate with largest Twitter follower counts.
But wait – there's also an argument that @mentions indicate who our winner is going to be. The candidate everyone's talking about will be the next president. In that case, Mitt Romney takes the lead.
And if you think Web buzz in general is going to predict our next president, then once again it's Romney for the win.
Social network-sourced election predictions are everywhere, but whether they mean anything is unclear. There's no shortage of infographics using eye-catching visuals to colorfully chart out how we're using Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to talk about our candidates, but not enough analysis about whether this content is signal or noise.
What we do know is this:
- People increasingly use social networks; as of May, eight percent of online adults were using Twitter on a typical day.
- People increasingly get their news from social media and digital outlets; according to a Pew Research Center Report, "the percentage of Americans saying they saw news or news headlines on a social networking site [from the day before] has doubled from nine percent to 19 percent – since 2010."
- 88 percent of social media users are registered voters.
The big picture take-away from this is that social media matters in an election; politicians should be creating content here, because constituents react to it. But the data raises more questions than it answers. What about sarcasm, mood, and sentiment? Or spam accounts? Or malicious posts meant to manipulate a social network? We just saw how completely faked information can take over a platform as well as the news cycle, so what's to keep us safe from similar effects with election predictions?
For all the revealing bite-sized data we can squeeze out of Facebook posts and followers and Twitter mentions and hashtags, there are plenty of glaring inaccuracies as well. According to Twitter, Ron Paul should have been the Republican nominee, and the Iowa primary would have ended quite differently.
For every insightful social media analysis, there are 10 terribly shallow ones. Countless news outlets launch tools or republish infographics that count "buzz" – and if that's all we we're looking for, Herman Cain would probably be our next president.
What's missing, of course, is context. So many of the endlessly-circulated infographics and charts we've seen this year are heavy on data and pie charts and graphs and lack anything to put those numbers into perspective.
As a rule, these prediction tools aren't able to determine if tweets or Facebook posts are coming from people who are even eligible to vote. According to a recent study, 73.7 percent of Twitter users are between the ages of 15 and 25, so there's plenty of opportunity here for users who can't vote to be sharing their opinions. To further complicate things, only 0.45 percent of Twitter users disclose their ages. 46 percent of Facebook users are 45 or older, but given how large Facebook is, this number is sort of insignificant; it means that there are plenty of under-aged users on the site who could very well be endorsing candidates they can't vote for.
Demographics in general are rather ignored – the most notable of them being that the people who use social networks to talk about politics are already politically motivated. This means that those who keep their political ideals to themselves or don't have strong enough beliefs to broadcast them – but will still vote – aren't being counted. In traditional prediction methods, pollsters specifically reached out to this subset in order to create more accurate views of the elections, but since the data being pulled from social networks is all self-motivated, this simply gets left out.
German researchers recently looked at Twitter's predictive abilities, saying: "While we find evidence of a lively political debate on Twitter, this discussion is still dominated by a small number of users: Only four percent of all users accounted for more than 40 percent of the messages." This was back in 2009, but surely the scale still speaks to a notable discrepancy.
"So long as you understand the data and the demographics of social users, you can measure sentiment in perspective and target relevant messages to those groups," says 140Proof founder and CTO John Manoogian III. "The problem comes when pundits and analysts mistakenly assume that social media aggregates the tastes and preferences of all voters — it does not. Sites like Facebook and Twitter have political leanings. But social media does pretty strongly indicate what young, educated, and/or professional voters are saying."
A much bigger factor is the failure of sentiment and mood analysis. The mechanisms we use to measure social media talk aren't sophisticated enough to know if you're slamming Obama or endorsing him. Some people can barely read sarcasm, so don't expect applications pulling in tweets and posts to consistently do so. If you write "Oh sure, I totally believe Romney has women's interests at heart," in a Facebook post, it will likely be interpreted as a pro-Mitt statement.
There's also the fact that we want this to work; we want to be able to use social media to tell us how we all really feel. "This is the so-called file-drawer effect: researchers do not publish negative results, hence, only positive results are known and it seems that something is possible most of the time when it could be due to pure chance," says researcher Daniel Gayo-Avello. "A paper [I wrote with] Eni Mustafaraj and Takis Metaxas showed that, in fact, results could be guessed roughly half of the time; that is not an impressive predictive ability, isn't it?"
"Thus, by not knowing (because they are seldom published) about negative results, everybody assumes that simple methods simply work; and, indeed, they 'work' but half of the time, akin to a broken watch which 'works' twice a day."
This doesn't mean all this information isn't valuable – it absolutely is, and interesting to boot. There's no argument that politicians should be using social networks, and this type of outreach is only going to become more common and more sophisticated.
The big lesson is social networking can be used as an indicator of opinion, but not necessarily decision. There are just too many loose ends involved, and until they can be tied up, you're just going to have to learn who will win our elections the old fashioned way: by waiting up all night for someone on TV to announce it.

BENEFITING: Soccer in the Streets
ORGANIZER: Soccer in the Streets
Soccer in the Streets wrote -
On October 7, 2012, the most amazing soccer game you've ever witnessed will be BIGGER THAN EVER. The match will take place in the Grady High School Stadium, right in the heart of Atlanta, GA. As a tongue-in-cheek protest to the typical formal banquet fundraiser, we host our banquet in the park and attire the soccer players in black tie and ball gowns. Some very sporting Atlanta celebrities, such asBert Weiss of the Bert Show and Frank Ski of V103, will join the festivities this year!
It's more than fun and games … generous people across the planet pledge their dollars for these unconventional players in their fancy duds (ladies and gentlemen, dresses and tuxes - not necessarily in that order!) to kick about for a serious cause: the kids of metro Atlanta who need a helping hand. All kids deserve a chance for success and Soccer In The Streets empowers kids who lack opportunity to become independent young adults by building character and self reliance through soccer and employment experience.
Complete with a professional British announcer, thrills and spills, hard-nosed tackles (in sequins), jamming music, delicious food and coveted awards for the best dressed players, this is an event not to be missed!

The incredibly dramatic McLaren P1 has been the undeniable star of the Paris Motor Show. But there is another place where McLaren has outshined the rest of the automakers as well: They gave pretty much everyone here their own P1 to take home.
Sort of...
During press previews at auto shows, the automakers give journalists a creatively packaged kit of information so they don't actually have to listen to the press conferences. Sometimes, there's an added surprise in store to keep you interested.
McLaren had an augmented reality app (click here for it) developed for the iPhone. It uses the camera to pick up a special design on paper that you print out from McLaren's Facebook page, which then generates a 3D P1 right on your iPhone.
It's unbelievably cool. Go to the app store to download your copy so you can get a bit of P1 coolness in your own hand, since you'll probably never own or see one yourself.

Dental Implant Alternatives
While dental implants are an appealing restorative dentistry treatment for patients who are missing teeth, they are not for everyone. Patients may be unable to receive dental implants for a variety of reasons, including if they do not have enough bone to support implants. In other cases, patients may simply want to avoid the lengthy dental implants procedure.
Fortunately, there are a number of dental implant alternatives that patients can turn to. These treatment options restore both the health and appearance of the smile. A qualified dentist can help you determine what course of treatment is right for you. In the meantime, learn more about some of the available tooth replacement options.

The current TeX4ht home page is tug.org/tex4ht. Please see that page for current development information.
TeX4ht is a highly configurable TeX-based authoring system dedicated mainly to produce hypertext. It interacts with TeX-based applications through style files and postprocessors, leaving the processing of the source files to the native TeX compiler. Consequently, TeX4ht can handle the features of TeX-based systems in general, and of the LaTeX and AMS style files in particular.
Pre-tailored configurations are offered for different output formats, including (X)HTML, MathML, OpenDocument, and DocBook.
TeX4ht was created by Eitan Gurari at Ohio State University. Eitan died unexpectedly in June 2009; we dedicate future development to his memory.
trouble shooting | Q/A | common problems for MathML
Typical LaTeX source files can be compiled into standard HTML and XML formats in a manner similar to the way they are compiled into print formats, namely, through variations of the command 'htlatex filename "options1" "option2" "options3" "options4"'. For instance,
For details, visit the calling commands section.
The main features of TeX4ht are described in:
To be installed, the system needs a port made up of native utilities of TeX4ht and of non-native utilities. The easiest way to establish an up to date port is to download an installed distribution of the system, and upgrade it with the files provided here.
Establishing ports from scratch for Unix and MS Windows require additional effort, mainly because of the need to set up non-native utilities. Alternative ports for these and other platforms can be tailored in a similar manner. The distribution assumes compilations through command lines but graphical user inferfaces may also be employed.
Philip A. Viton discusses in details issues of installing TeX4ht under MikTeX and Scientific Word/WorkPlace, but many of the topics apply also to other platforms. Steven Zeil offers improvements for the above settings.
The literate sources of TeX4ht are also available, but they are not needed for installing the system. The literate views are very far from being in a desirable state for a review by a public eye–they reflect their true nature as being privately used for developing and maintaining the available code. The views follow a basement mentality: throw in without much scrutiny any item of possible value at some point of time, and clean a corner when the need arises for working on a specific issue of the code. The leading lines in the files indicate how the files can be compiled.
trouble shooting| bug fixes
The development of the TeX4ht system is to a large degree driven by users' bug reports and requests. In most cases, when providing feedback, it is essential to include the following information.
Translations of source files are centered around logical structures. Formatting instructions receive only limited attention.

For ambitious workers who dream of one day becoming a chief executive officer, they should know that it may not be all they expect it to be. According to a poll of 83 CEOs in the United States, conducted by management consulting firm RHR International, being the boss brought with it feelings of isolation and job requirements that varied greatly from their original expectations.
While 87 percent of CEOs felt they were prepared for the demands of the position, 54 percent of respondents reported that the requirements of being a CEO were different then they expected. Those numbers only increased when looking at first-time c-suite executives. According to the research, 91 percent of first-time CEOs felt they were prepared for the position, but 72 percent reported the actual https://www.businessnewsdaily.com being different than they had anticipated.
Another challenge for many CEOs comes from the isolation that the position brings. According to the survey, 50 percent of CEOs felt secluded in the position and of this group, 61 percent felt that this seclusion was a https://www.businessnewsdaily.com. Not surprisingly, first-time CEOs were more negatively affected by this loneliness, with 70 percent reporting that it hurt them in their ability to do their job.
"This is not uncommon," said Thomas Saporito, chairman and CEO at RHR International. "Stress, pressure and loneliness all combine to create a job unlike any other they have previously had."
The survey also challenged the popular notion regarding toxic relationships between https://www.businessnewsdaily.comhttps://www.businessnewsdaily.comAccording to the research, 98 percent of CEOs stated they had a good relationship with their boards of directors. Additionally, 95 percent of respondents believed that their board supported many of the decisions they made, while 59 percent cited the board of directors as the most trusted source for feedback.
"While some CEOs have poor relationships with their boards, it's clear the majority don't fall into this category," Saporito said. "The ones who do are simply the ones that make for good press."
The information in this report is the result of the survey conducted by RHR International, a group of management psychologists and consultants who work with management in order to improve performance within organizations. The executives in the survey presided over companies with annual revenues ranging from $50 million to $2 billion.

A Collection of Shape Resist and Tie-Dyed Indian Turbans: Lahariya, Mothara and Bandhani
March 19, 2009
The flinty light of today's rainy spring day makes for a subdued atmosphere to present a collection of exuberantly colored Indian turbans that were dyed and worn in the bright desert sun of Rajasthan.
This is a tight little group of mothara, lahariya and bandhani turbans: generally speaking you can characterize the shape resist techniques as such: mothara , very simply put is pleated and twisted on two diagonals and can yield a complex and dazzling criss-cross effect. Lahariya–which literally means "waves"– shows an intricate chevron-like pattern, and bandhani is what is called tie-dye.
Three madder-dyed bandhani turbans are positioned on the right side of the group: do they seem familiar in design? Through a circuitous history of trade and travel, bandhani morphed into the present-day bandanna.
The group of turbans sits in a mended wooden trough from Gilgit, Pakistan; the trough sits on a collection of ralli quilts from Sindh, an area that traverses Pakistan and India.

Please follow the link to our website to view our inventory of Nissan LEAF's.
We currently have 23 vehicles in stock. All are single owner lease returns. All have low mileage, 12/12 battery capacity and a clean CarFax report. We put the cars thru a rigorous certification and reconditioning process. After reconditioning, our cars are stored in our new 30K sq ft climate controlled warehouse facility.
As you'll note from the website our prices are fixed at about 10-15% below CarMax. We offer free home delivery in Northern California and $200 flat rate delivery to Southern California. All contracts, documentation and financing is handled online.
Several people on our team drive a LEAF so we can answer many questions though by no means are we engineers. In the past we've actually come to this forum seeking technical advice.
We look forward to helping anyone who is looking for a 2013+ used Nissan LEAF in perfect condition. We're adding Fiat 500e's, BMW i3's and Chevy Volt's to the inventory in the weeks ahead.
Any and all feedback is welcome. Thanks!

Film Festival Research from an Organizational Studies PerspectiveRüling, Charles-Clemens; Strandgaard Pedersen, Jesper (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The annual film festival is a very European institution invented more than 60-70 years ago. As a research topic, however, film festivals have received surprisingly little and scattered attention within organization and management studies. Film festivals have recently met a mounting interest among film and media scholars. This article provides an introduction to the growing literature on film festivals and argues for a threefold research agenda within organizational studies by looking at film festivals as arenas of emergence, analyzing the role of film festivals within the global film industries, and studying film festivals as organizations. By suggesting this research agenda we intent to draw the attention of organization and management scholars to a hitherto overlooked and potentially promising area of research for organization and management studies.

Frankfurt am Main is the financial heart of Germany and therefore also being referred to as 'Mainhattan'. A very large number of banks, insurance companies, investment companies and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange are located within a radius of just a few hundred metres in the financial centre of Frankfurt am Main.
Frankfurt am Main is also the city of Sinn Spezialuhren. Founded in 1961 by Helmut Sinn, this watch company specialized in very functional watches. When Lothar Schmidt acquired the company in 1994, Sinn became even more technology driven and embedded all kinds of new materials and inventions, like TEGIMENT (hardening) technology, U-boat (submariner) steel, special oil, HYDRO technology and exposed these new watches and technologies to endurance tests of all sorts (extreme cold, heat and depth for example).
However, besides these mostly sporty watches, Sinn Spezialuhren also honors the Frankfurt financial district with the Finanzplatzuhr models. These watches are at least capable of showing two different timezones, and most of them are able to display three different timezones. The 6000 model has an additional chronograph functionality as well.
The Sinn Modell 6000 Finanzplatzuhr celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. Although the credit crunch is not over (yet), Sinn wants to share their joy by introducing two limited Modell 6000 Finanzplatzuhr watches.
The Modell 6000 Anniversary II (or Jubiläum II in German) watch in stainless steel, limited to 100 pieces worldwide and the Modell 6000 Platinum (Platin in German) limited to 10 pieces only. Technical specifications of these watches are very similair, with exception of the used material for the case (and in weight ofcourse).
Above is the stainless steel Finanzplatzuhr 6000 Anniversary II, with a brown galvanized dial and rhodanized hourmarkers. Below is the Platinum version, featuring an engraved anthracite galvanized dial with rhodanized hour markers.Both watches have the same movement ticking inside, the trusted ETA/Valjoux 7750 caliber. This movement has a module added for the timezone functionality. The rotor of the movement is engraved with the skyline of Frankfurt am Main. The mechanical automatic movement has DIAPAL technology, to ensure a lubricant free escapement. When oil isn't used, there is no problem of preventing the oil from aging in an escapement. Without lubrication and without causing friction, established by the use of special materials (diamond pallets), long-term accuracy of the movement and particularly of the escapement can be assured.
Also, the Modell 6000 is water resistant to 100 meters (10 bar of pressure) due to its double sealed crown and pushers. The sapphire crystal on both sides of the watch is anti-reflective and the watch case of the stainless steel model is polished. The platinum watch case is polished as well.
The dimensions of the Modell 6000 Finanzplatzuhr are 38.5mm (diameter) x 16.5mm (height), which makes this watch suitable for any banker's wrist.
The Modell 6000 Anniversary II watch will be available in October 2009, for 2.950 euro (100 pieces only). The Platinum watch will be available in november 2009 and has a price tag of 19.900 euro (10 pieces only).
Both watches come with a 5 year warranty by Sinn Spezialuhren.

text: Augmented reality has many applications in the fashion industry, predominantly it has been used to create interactive shop windows or responsive mirrors in-store. Uniqlo, for instance, implemented their so-called 'magic mirror' in some stores to help customers choose the ideal colour for their garment. In luxury fashion, Hugo Boss created an augmented reality game for their shop window in London. The jewellery industry has also found practical uses for augmented reality. Boucheron, for instance, created MyBoucheron, which allows customers to preview what a piece of jewellery could look like on them using their webcam at home.

Spaceship Earth
During his stay in orbit, André Kuipers had a unique view of 'Spaceship Earth' from his very own spaceship, the International Space Station. From the spectacular vantage point provided by Cupola, the ESA astronaut observed both the beauty and fragility of our planet.
His observations support ESA online lessons designed to help European children strengthen their knowledge in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Three themes cover topics such as Life in Space, Biodiversity and our planet's climate.
As part of Spaceship Earth, André performed experiments on board which can also be carried out by schools. ESA is providing school kits with replicas of the experiments on board the ISS. Please click on the link to the right to order a kit for your school.
Spaceship Earth themes
Lessons associated with Spaceschip Earth were released throughout the PromISSe mission. The PDF files of the lessons can be downloaded through the links on the right of this page.
Dutch teachers are requested to order their kits from the Ruimteschip Aarde website, also linked on the right.
Theme 1: Life
Radiation is the term used for all phenomena characterised by the transport of energy, either by waves or sub-atomic particles. This lesson for secondary school students (16-18), explains different types of radiations and how some forms of radiation pose a threat to astronauts.
Balance in Space
Keeping balance on Earth is relatively easy because gravity dictates how the vestibular apparatuses behave in the inner ears. In conditions of microgravity such as on the ISS, astronauts can be very easily disoriented. This lesson for lower secondary school children (12-14) demonstrates how balance can also be affected by visual cues and incorporates a fun practical activity.
Understanding how the immune system functions will eventually lead to answers about many diseases including cancers. This lesson, intended for upper secondary school students (14-17), explains the basics of the immune system but also discusses the fact that astronauts in Space, for various reasons, have depressed immune responses. This is particularly important to study if humans are to live in microgravity for extended periods of time.
Life Support Systems
We now have the capability to leave planet Earth. However, if man is to live in space and travel to other planets, we must learn how to survive out there for longer periods of time; we have to recreate in space the vital ingredients for life on Earth.
On the International Space Station many of Earth's environmental support systems have already been engineered. Examining how some of these key technologies work, allows us to understand the vital ingredients that make Earth such an ideal place to live.
In the DVD 'Ingredients for Life: On Earth and in Space', aimed primarily at 16-18 year old students, we explore how ESA is dealing with these scientific and technological challenges, and we answer questions like: Why do we need water and oxygen? How do astronauts get the oxygen they need to survive in space?
Theme 2: Biodiversity
Convection depends on gravity: as liquids and gases heat up they become less dense and lighter. When they cool again, they become denser and fall towards Earth. These processes can be observed in large scale on Earth but also in the small convection loops provided in the ESA EPO kits. Ocean currents and atmospheric movement due to warmth from the Sun determines where life on Earth flourishes and where life struggles. Biodiverse regions on Earth are largely dependent on convection.
Theme 3: Climate and Weather
We learned that convection depends on gravity and that convection affects atmospheric and oceanic currents. These never-ending patterns of rising and sinking gases and liquids together with Earth spinning on its axis, lead to interesting climates that in turn affect the biodiversity on our planet. In this lesson, you will learn about the differences between climate and weather, how to interpret weather observations and how you can participate in ESA's interactive Meteosat application and EduSpace.

Last week, we introduced the notion of "one-decision stocks," those infrequent investments where one can actually "buy and hold" for years without thinking of selling.
Expeditors International of Washington was the inaugural member, and today, I have another.
My "Call-to-Action" is to buy Ecolab. The second member of The Strategy Session's "one-decision stock club" should be a winner, and here's why.
Ecolab makes hand sanitizers, a most peculiar secular growth story that only seems to grow with each report of Mad Cow, Swine Flu or some other exotic disease that only seems to affect animals in Southeast Asia but somehow has everyone on the Upper West Side of New York City freaked out—hence the need to wash your hands.
While these phobias may fatten shrinks' bottom lines, it can also help shareholders profit too. There are also new products in the pipeline.
Just a few days ago, Ecolab launched Virasept, its first ready-to-use hard surface disinfectant. They are also developing with DuPont a coating for food processors that will reduce the risk of contamination.
And while Ecolab may traffic in sanitizers that use artificial ingredients, it has only just begun to tap its real organic growth potential in markets like China, India, and Africa. If Ecolab can catch on there, the stock should soar.
Membership in The Strategy Session's "one-decision stock club" is a particularly exclusive affair in these markets. But Ecolab's long-term and short-term trends look great. This is one you can hold for years.

Thought this might make a fun topic for musicians, seeing as little how activity this subforum is getting! In my time in and out of music, there's been some pretty heavy opinions going both ways as to which is more beneficial. With many things, I think having skill in both is the best of both worlds, but for a lot of people it seems to be one or the other. What do you feel the pros and cons are of each way to learn and express our music? How do you go about learning new songs?
I'm without a question someone who plays by ear, as I find I get the most fun out of my music when I struggle to figure out a song that I can't find sheet music or tabs of anywhere. The satisfaction felt when I do figure it out is pretty amazing for me. I'm sure life would be easier if everything had sheet music and we all took the time to learn to read! I can read a bit of sheet music as well, but it's truly just the basics.

The new draft business plan from California's high-speed rail authority says the first phase of the project will cost $98 billion.
If you read any further, you read an argument that this is a bargain -- since other transportation costs over the next two decades will cost nearly twice that.
Of course, that logic, we should ask what the state might get if it spent $100 billion -- let's round up -- on other things.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
What if the state were to make the same investment in restoring public support to the University of California and the California State University systems?
Giving $5 billion a year over the next 20 years -- the time it would take to build the high-speed rail first phase -- would be a game-changer, permitting tuition reductions and the expansion of the systems that would give us a better educated, more competitive population.
Or what if we invested that money in a combination of additional support for California's K-12 schools -- there'd be enough there to make us a national leader in this area?
One hundred billion dollars, by the way, is real money.
It's the combined profit of the big five oil companies.
One hundred billion dollars is the estimate of the total amount of American student loan debt. It's more than twice the estimated cost of a manned NASA mission to Mars.
High-speed rail is politically dead. But the debate is useful. Because it should remind us that the state has the resources to think big.
How would you spend that kind of money?

The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.
And since we're entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we've distributed just about $1,500,000 to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.
