OK, I can see we have a bunch of business majors here. If any of you "pointy-heads" had had a lick of classical Math (you gotta prove some theorems, folks), YOU WOULD KNOW that the mountain is high when you state that you have a PROOF of anything and it is higher yet for optimality. Fractional Kelly IS NOT KELLY!!!!!!!!! Fractional Kelly is NOT OPTIMAL because it is NOT KELLY!!!!!!!!! Therefore, it IS JUST ANOTHER BETTING SYSTEM!!!!!!!! Fractional Kelly NOT OPTIMAL BECAUSE IT'S NOT KELLY, get it Business Major?????? One other thing, wizards. None of you guys seem to have noticed I mentioned Kurt Gödel, so I'll repeat. Visit this link: [URL]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del%27s_incompleteness_theorems[/URL] I doubt you clowns'll understand it, but it tells you that there is a lot you CAN'T prove. Add in all the variability of sports stats, and "FULL" Kelly is there (even if it were provably optimal, which I contend it was not).

I'm not surprised a humorless, supercilious dweeb like you doesn't understand the comic genius of JJ and his ability to keep Player's Talk roiling with all sorts of inane shit. You're the type of pimply-faced dullard who won't watch The Big Bang Theory because the characters strike a little too close to home. Not only that, you don't get the humor. So you troll the Tank picking fights with well respected posters like Poker Joe after he posted a very nicely written NBA analysis in another thread, just because it hasn't the exact equations in it you like, or even worse: no equations at all. What happened? Did those mean jocks shove you into a locker a few too many times in high school so you want to take it out on folks now that you can hide behind a keyboard and internet anonymity? Game on asshole, I'm your huckleberry.

Limit all US politicians to two terms:
One in office...

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Times New Roman][FONT=arial]The Center for Disease Control has issued a warning about a new virulent strain of this old disease. The disease is called Gonorrhea Lectim. It's pronounced "Gonna re-elect 'em," and it is a terrible obamanation.

The disease is contracted through dangerous and high risk behavior involving putting yourcranium up your rectum. Many victims contracted it in 2008...but now most people, after having been infected for the past 1-2 years, are starting to realize how destructive this sickness is.

It's sad because Gonorrhea Lectim is easily cured with a new drug just coming on the market called Votemout. You take the...[/COLOR][/FONT][/FONT]

Mav, I really wasn't pointing at you, but maybe just the attitude in general. And Monkey is ALL about attitude; dumping on folks because they are not doing tech shit however which strange way Monkey does it. And how is that? Monkey is not going to tell you, besides you're so stupid you wouldn't understand it anyway. No matter what you say, it won't keep Monkey from shitting on you. We all know he's the Alpha shitter around here. The db/data miners like to think that the world began when they started building their "decision trees" in the 90s. Much of this is just glorified angle techniques and folks trying a million ways to basically partition data sets. And then they wait for effect and say: "I also use Neural Networks." What? OK, I'll just melt down into a jelly I'm so impressed. And then that crap falls apart too as it's mostly overfitted bullshit. I really, really want to see this. Monkey under the microscope.

AOL News (June 5) -- Women in Saudi Arabia should give their breast milk to male colleagues and acquaintances in order to avoid breaking strict Islamic law forbidding mixing between the sexes, two powerful Saudi clerics have said. They are at odds, however, over precisely how the milk should be conveyed.

A fatwa issued recently about adult breast-feeding to establish "maternal relations" and preclude the possibility of sexual contact has resulted in a week's worth of newspaper headlines in Saudi Arabia. Some have found the debate so bizarre that they're calling for stricter ...

Fishy and his sweetie made a deal that whoever died first would come back and inform the other of the sex after death.
Their biggest fear was that there was no after life at all.
After a long life together, Fishy was the first to die.
True to his word, he made the first contact:
" Billsfan?Billsfan?"
"Is that you, Fishy?"
"Yes, I've come back like we agreed."
"That's wonderful! What's it like?"

Vices like porn, smoking, shoplifting heat up in recession

There's something about a recession that makes us want to behave badly.

Yes, bad habits are booming in this bad economy, ABC News reports.

"I'm seeing an increase in bad lifestyle choices," Jonathan Alpert, a New York psychotherapist and relationship columnist, told ABC News.

"People are staying up until the wee hours of the morning; there's an increase in smoking, drinking and sexual behaviors like surfing porn and using hookers."

The data confirms his findings. The Centers for Disease Control saw an increase in...

In statistics, a result is called statistically significant if it is unlikely to have occurred by chance. The phrase test of significance was coined by Ronald Fisher.[1]
The use of the word significance in statistics is different from the standard one, which suggests that something is important or meaningful. For example, a study that included tens of thousands of participants might be able to say with very great confidence that people of one race are more intelligent than people of another race by 1/20th of an IQ point. This result would be statistically significant, but the difference is small enough to...[/1]
