Current Information on Philadelphia - Research Guide

Look through the guide and try to really update it in PennPage. So, copy the things that look like they might still be useful, and then update books that have newer editions, and websites that don't work. Just make sure that you make a note of the things that you should check with Nick. Also, are there things about Philadelphia that should be added? Things you know about? Just amke sure someone can tell the difference between what you added and what you copied.

STATS: We Check Out the Numbers Behind the News

Since its founding in 1994, the non-profit, non-partisan Statistical Assessment Service (STATS) has become a much-valued resource on the use and abuse of science and statistics in the media. Our goals are to correct scientific misinformation in the media resulting from bad science, politics, or a simple lack of information or knowledge; and to act as a resource for journalists and policy makers on major scientific issues and controversies.

Many Eyes

"This IBM utility aims ‘to “democratize” visualisation and to enable a new social kind of data analysis'. Many Eyes allows registered users to upload their own data on the understanding that the data is made available to all. It also has the facility to visualise numeric data in a spatial manner (using the proprietary mapping utility World Map). Users can view (or create) topic hubs which are pages devoted to a particular topic or theme. It serves as a way to collect related visualisations and data sets."

Data360 embraces Web.2.0 concepts of participation and collaboration ‘to provide clear context on important cultural, environmental, social and economic issues’. By using ‘collaborative trend tracking’ Data360 allows organisations and users to create their own Data360 space, as well as to collaborate with others. The datasets held are predominantly aggregated and from the US, with sources including: US Environmental Protection Agency, National Science Foundation, US Geological Survey, Gallup, Federal Reserve, US Census Bureau, US Department of Energy. There are also datasets sourced from the World Bank, United Nations, the World Factbook Transparency International.

Russian Federation: Update Briefing: What progress has been made since May 2006 to tackle violent racism? | Amnesty International

In Amnesty International published a report, EUR 46/022/2006, which detailed the alarming regularity of racist attacks and killings of foreigners and ethnic minorities, and the disturbing increase in their number. While there has been an increase in prosecutions recognizing racial hatred, the authorities are still not doing enough to convincingly challenge racist and xenophobic ideas and ideologies. This update details some of the most recent developments and reiterates Amnesty International's key recommendations for the Russian authorities in relation to racist attacks.
