SmasHits Oct 24, 2008 Indian Equities Markets Suffer Worst Ever Losses
Indian equity markets suffered their worst single-day losses in history on Friday, with the benchmark Sensex index falling over 10% to close at 8,701.07 points. The broader Nifty index also had its steepest ever fall, dropping 12.2%. Analysts cited large-scale selling by foreign hedge funds and other international investors due to a liquidity crisis exacerbated by the strengthening yen, which has increased costs associated with yen carry trades and forced funds to sell assets globally to repay loans. Domestic analysts felt the RBI's decision to keep rates unchanged was prudent, as further liquidity may not have stemmed the fall and could fuel inflation. The outlook remains grim, with expectations of further declines

This project involved learning how to identify reliable websites from unreliable ones using 8 criteria: authorship, aims, achievement of aims, relevance, verifiability, date, bias, and choices presented. Students had to find information for a newspaper article using these criteria and explain whether sites were biased, nonsense, or reliable.
The student was unsatisfied with their final product because they forgot to explain website bias. They learned how to identify reliable sites using the 8 criteria to find real information without being teased. For improvement, they would provide more details on Petr Cech's friends' reactions to his injury and more information on biased sites to make their newspaper more professional.
Library Skills Week 5
This document discusses how young people are adept at using technology to find information but often struggle to evaluate its credibility. It provides questions to ask when evaluating online information, including "Who is the source?", "What am I getting?", "When was the site created?", "Where am I?", "Why am I here?", and "How can I tell this is a quality website?". The document then analyzes a hypothetical blog claiming to provide information about "pherotones" and determines it is likely not a credible source through investigating factors like the author's credentials, currency of the information, and nature of the hosting website. Students are reminded to consider the purpose and authenticity of websites when conducting online research.
Authenticity
This document discusses how to evaluate the authenticity and reliability of information found online. It notes that 68% of students want to know how to identify true online information. It then provides questions in 5 categories to help determine the credibility of a website:
1) Authority - Is the author knowledgeable and credible?
2) Accuracy - Is the information sensible and backed by sources?
3) Objectivity - Is the information unbiased and presenting multiple perspectives?
4) Currency - Is the website and its content up-to-date?
5) Usability - Is the site easy to navigate and obtain information from?
Evaluating websites using these criteria can help determine whether the information found is trustworthy and reliable.

This document introduces the CRAAP test for evaluating information sources. The CRAAP test consists of 5 criteria - Currency, Relevance, Authority, Accuracy, and Purpose. Each criterion is explained in 1-2 sentences. Currency refers to how up-to-date the information is. Relevance means how effectively the source communicates information to its intended audience. Authority evaluates the author's credentials and expertise. Accuracy examines the reliability and verifiability of the content. Purpose determines why the source was created and any potential biases. The document provides examples and guidelines for applying each aspect of the CRAAP test.
Fake news
Fake news is untrue information presented as news. It often has the aim of damaging the reputation of a person or entity or making money through advertising revenue. Once common in print, the prevalence of fake news has increased with the rise of social media, especially the Facebook News Feed
Fake news? Protect yourself.
Fake news stories look like real news but contain made-up or false information. There are two main reasons why fake news websites spread lies - to make money from clicks and to change how people think. It is important to check for reliable sources and verify information from multiple trustworthy media sources before believing or sharing news online. Key steps include checking the URL, looking at the 'About' section of websites, and asking questions like who created the information and what evidence and other sources say.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
