...enormous processing ability—4,096 processors performing 11 trillion floating-point calculations per second, using five times less power than a traditional computer cluster with the same capability—will enable it to perform complicated simulations. “There are natural phenomena and processes which cannot be studied by direct observation or experimentation,” Watson Professor of Computer Science Michael O. Rabin wrote in an e-mail, referring to the need for computer modeling the Blue Gene executes. Use of the machine will be open to DEAS affiliates who submit a proposal...
...that positively stymie adequate response unless their particulars are reduced to deceptive simplicities. Every sentient human being knows this from daily experience ... Constantly hearing the truth, the cold, hard, brutal unsparing truth, from spouses, relatives, friends and colleagues is not a pleasant prospect. 'Human kind,' as T.S.

We cannot guarantee that they will be known [in advance...
...paper Joanna M. Maselko, a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Epidemiology at HSPH, said lung health was chosen as the dependent variable in the study to represent overall health because researchers had access to data on this measure. According to Maselko, the link between churchgoing and health cannot be labeled a causal effect despite the strong correlation between the two variables. The scope of the study is limited, she added, because it only examines the effects of Christian religious services. Maselko is currently working on another study examining similar factors in Hindu India in an effort to generalize...
