Just published two papers on a novel statistical approach for enhancing the generalizability of randomized clinical trials. Contact me for reprints.

Here is a novel scoring strategy for incentivizing fighting/decisive chess: Win=2; loss=1; draw=0 pts. Players have more to lose by drawing than by losing!

#Candidates2014 I am worried about Anand's chances. Why did he play so passively?

#Candidates2014 To GM Nielsen, why did you not work with GM Anand for the match against Carlsen? You were his good-luck charm!

My heart aches for Vishy, my long time friend, a champion & a gentleman. I hope he can forget it and focus on next game @FWCM2013 #FWCM2013

If Carlsen becomes the champion, do you see anyone dethroning him anytime soon? If so, who is the most promising candidate?
