Safer Streets: Cutting Repeat Crimes by Juvenile Offenders.
FIGHT CRIME: INVEST IN KIDS is an anti-crime organization led by more than 3,500 law enforcement leaders -- chiefs, sheriffs and prosecutors -- and survivors of crime. Most of the survivors are parents of murdered children. Crime requires punishment. Punishment may be placing a young offender in custody, or, depending on the crime, imposing a range of other tough sanctions. The bottom line is that residents must be safe walking the streets. Research shows, however, that punishment alone will often not be enough; troubled teens will need help to stop their aggression, substance abuse, or other anti-social behaviors. It is usually not too late to change anti-social patterns of behavior. Sanctions that include strict and effective interventions can direct anti-social and dangerous juveniles onto a different path that will make Americans safer

Harold Jeffreys's Theory of Probability Revisited
Published exactly seventy years ago, Jeffreys's Theory of Probability (1939)
has had a unique impact on the Bayesian community and is now considered to be
one of the main classics in Bayesian Statistics as well as the initiator of the
objective Bayes school. In particular, its advances on the derivation of
noninformative priors as well as on the scaling of Bayes factors have had a
lasting impact on the field. However, the book reflects the characteristics of
the time, especially in terms of mathematical rigor. In this paper we point out
the fundamental aspects of this reference work, especially the thorough
coverage of testing problems and the construction of both estimation and
testing noninformative priors based on functional divergences. Our major aim
here is to help modern readers in navigating in this difficult text and in
concentrating on passages that are still relevant today.Comment: This paper commented in: [arXiv:1001.2967], [arXiv:1001.2968],

Thermal tides in the Martian middle atmosphere as seen by the Mars Climate Sounder
The first systematic observations of the middle atmosphere of Mars (35–80km) with the Mars Climate Sounder (MCS) show dramatic patterns of diurnal thermal variation, evident in retrievals of temperature and water ice opacity. At the time of writing, the data set of MCS limb retrievals is sufficient for spectral analysis within a limited range of latitudes and seasons. This analysis shows that these thermal variations are almost exclusively associated with a diurnal thermal tide. Using a Martian general circulation model to extend our analysis, we show that the diurnal thermal tide dominates these patterns for all latitudes and all seasons
