Interesting site Predicting the future
https://www.recordedfuture.com/2012/pharma-it-on-recorded-future-for-the-enterprise/
The website "RecordedFuture.com" is pretty cool. They have some pretty advanced analytical tools to allow you to go pretty deep into the world of unstructured web sentiment. If you are not sure what I mean, keep reading the rest of my posts.
The site is has some relationship with Sergi and Larry, and some association with certain "Central" law enforcement agency. The tool is very powerful so take a look.

As a Biologist, I understand that what seems to be a simple cause and effect is often not the entire story. The important step in the scientific method is to experiment and try to repeat the results.

Strat-Wise: When Data Destroys Value
This article hits on the head a common issue in the business world. Our ability to create and process data far exceeds are ability to create strategic value of that same data. Further both IT and the Business think it should be the others responsibility to make sense of the vast pools of information that flow from our data centers, applications, and processes.
The solution lies in making sure we don't use the GIGO methodology. Just because we can measure and record something does not necessarily mean we should. We must be smart enough to understand and trust the data we do record so that we can best use the regurgitated information in a meaningful manner.

Anchors II Course with Jeremy & Shannon - Devils Lake Climbing Guides
I have a friend at work that loves to go climbing. We recently spoke of our recent adventures out west. I and my family went to central Oregon and their family went to Colorado. Central Oregon is fantastic btw, great for families. You can bike, raft, climb, hike, go spelunking, and end the day drinking some of the finest craft micro brew in the world. She mentioned she loves to climb and just went to Wisconsin to do a little climbing. They hired a guide and off they went. Here is the Guide's blog about their little day adventure.

DIY: front O2 sensor on 02 WRX
So I picked up a new toy from UltraGauge a week ago. I have a car that supports OBD2 output, but does not have a display in the dash that gives me all the cool info that today's late model vehicles do. I focus mostly on the MPG average and MPG instantaneous info, but there are 60 some fields reported. This little $70 unit will plug into your port and give you the ability to view tons of information about your car. It is a great unit for the money and I recommend getting one if you are looking to view real time information from your car. I found out that I had a bad O2 sensor from an error code that the unit pulled. So I ordered a new O2 sensor and plan on getting my hands dirty in the very near future.

Percolator, Dremel and Pregel: Alternatives to Hadoop - Data Science Central
I have been spending a lot of time discussing and working to implement a Hadoop cluster with my team mates at work. I agree that Hadoop is not the cure all for our collective data needs. It is a great tool but has it challenges when working with dynamic data sets. Vince Granville discusses alternative technologies that can consume data in a faster ecosystem.

NSA Mimics Google, Pisses Off Senate | Wired Enterprise | Wired.com
Sad example of where the one dept of the Fed comes up with a pretty good innovation and the bureaucracy tries to squash it. The NSA created Accumulo, a hadoop toolset, to tackle big data surveillance jobs. They had some issues with the available off the shelf solutions when they began this project. Namely the existing implementations were very immature, unproven, and not secure to the level that the NSA required.
Oh well, another example of how the government has snuffed inovation.

Real-time Twitter heat map with MongoDB « comSysto.com
Awesome depiction of Tweets being sent and received during a 10 day period. The twit tracked was "Good Morning" and they added a time lasped data set and overlaid the data set to its geographical value. The colors change as the broadcast of the tweets increases. The was made with MongoDB and I think the team at Vertaline created the visualization They also used a word that is "no-no' in my house, but gets said too much. Oh, the source code is available to fork, Why not try and see if you can add different variables and then create a new map.

Federal tool for developing information analysis strategies
Here's an interesting article discusses Lockheed Martin's involvement with the Air Force to develope a tool to search social media networks for sentiment data in Third World countries. It will be interesting to see if the defense industry can create better tools than the big web properties. History has shown necessity is the mother of invention. History has also shown that the innovators generally cash in on a big payday.
