How Dating Became a Lopsided Numbers Game

It’s not that he’s just not that into you—it’s that there aren’t enough of him. And the numbers prove it. Using a combination of demographics, statistics, game theory, and number-crunching, Date-onomics tells what every single, college-educated, heterosexual, looking-for-a-partner woman needs to know: The “man deficit” is real. It’s a fascinating, if sobering read, with two critical takeaways: One, it’s not you. Two, knowledge is power, so here’s what to do about it.
    
The shortage of college-educated men is not just a big-city phenomenon frustrating women in New York and L.A. Among young college grads, there are four eligible women for every three men nationwide. This unequal ratio explains not only why it’s so hard to find a date, but a host of social issues, from the college hookup culture to the reason Salt Lake City is becoming the breast implant capital of America. Then there’s the math that says that a woman’s good looks can keep men from approaching her—particularly if they feel the odds aren’t in their favor.

Fortunately, there are also solutions: what college to attend (any with strong sciences or math), where to hang out (in New York, try a fireman’s bar), where to live (Colorado, Seattle, “Man” Jose), and why never to shy away from giving an ultimatum....












It may yield a short-term boom, but Trumponomics is a poor recipe for long-term prosperity

MUSIC STREAMING

Can Spotify dent streaming-averse Japan?

Streaming media is multimedia that is constantly received by and presented to an end-user while being delivered by a provider. The verb "to stream" refers to the process of delivering or obtaining media in this manner; the term refers to the delivery method of the medium, rather than the medium itself, and is an alternative to file downloading, a process in which the end-user obtains the entire file for the content before watching or listening to it.

As of 2016, streaming is generally taken to refer to cases where a user watches digital video content and/or listens to digital audio content on a computer screen and speakers (ranging from a desktop computer to a smartphone) over the Internet. With streaming content, the user does not have to download the entire digital video or digital audio file before they start to watch/listen to it. There are challenges with streaming content on the Internet. If the user does not have enough bandwidth in their Internet connection, they may experience stops in the content and some users may not be able to stream certain content due to not having compatible computer or software systems. As of 2016, two popular streaming services are the video sharing website YouTube, which contains video and audio files on a huge range of topics and Netflix, which streams movies and TV shows.

Live streaming refers to Internet content delivered in real-time, as events happen, much as live television broadcasts its contents over the airwaves via a television signal. An example of live streaming is Metropolitan Opera Live in HD, a program in which the Metropolitan Opera streams an opera performance "live", as the performance is taking place; in 2013–2014, 10 operas were transmitted via satellite into at least 2,000 theaters in 66 countries.^[2] Live internet streaming requires a form of source media (e.g. a video camera, an audio interface, screen capture software), an encoder to digitize the content, a media publisher, and a content delivery network to distribute and deliver the content. Live streaming does not need to be recorded at the origination point, although it frequently is.

Mouseketeer

Bob Iger
Mogul Mouseketeer
By Rupert Murdoch
Inheriting a legendary brand is both a burden and blessing. Bob Iger could have been haunted by the past, but he has instead created a powerhouse for the company’s future, diversifying the portfolio and yet not traducing the tradition.
Hollywood is full of what are loosely called “characters”, a term that is somethimes merely a lousy excuse for bad behavior. But Bob is a thoughtful leader and an earnest individual, decent and dignified, farsighted and focused.
The common theme running throughout the Disney businesses is family—whether it’s movies, television shows, theme parks, Broadway shows or cruises. They are beautifully and successfully integrated businesses. And there is no doubt ESPN is a juggernaut.
Hollywood blinked when Bob spent $ 15 billion on Pixar, Lucas film and Marvel. But they turned out to be great and logically investments that have kept Disney on the front foot. Under Bob, Disney is hardly Frozen in time.

Murdoch is the executive chairman of News Corp. and chairman and CEO of 21st Century Fox.

 Mouseketeer

1. One of a group of children appearing on the television program The Mickey Mouse Club in the 1950's. 

Etymologies

from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License

Blend of mouse and musketeer, from the Mickey Mouse ears worn by the performers.

Mouseketeer

When one decides to place a gerbil or other small mouse up their rectum, they become a "mouseketeer." Richard Gere was one of the orginal mouseketeers.

I don't travel to West Hollywood, but I'm guessing there are many famous mouseketeers living there.
