In this example, one tries to increase the probability of a rare event occurring at least once by carrying out more trials...

Imagine if basketball games were played inside locked buildings without windows. The field goals and free throws were registered and counted by machines. The running score of the game was projected on the outside of the building. But it wasn't simultaneous with the game. The running score changed for days and even weeks after the contest was over. When at last there was a final score the fans cheered or slumped in despair.

How long would public interest and faith in such a sport last?

Today in 1973, the greatest horse race in history was run.

Secretariat won the Belmont Stakes by 31 lengths to become the Triple Crown winner and set a world record time that has never been beaten!

@walterkirn It seems less now an urban/rural divide, and more an urban/not-so-urban divide. The coastal mega metro corridors are formidable in their overwhelming economic and political preeminence with decisive and meaningful voluntary exodus from corrupt urban centers, too much to count on.

Amazon restocked my book just to sell it at a loss (currently priced at $6.47). They are probably treating it as a loss leader. But that means if you get a copy, without putting any other items in your cart, you can cost Amazon money and support my book at the same time

Did these guys expect to live on and move forward, or what?

90% of the soldiers on the first boats to hit the beach didn't live to see the end of the day. Look at those faces. Some of them never made it to 18.

Never forget that they paid the ultimate price for our freedom. We live our lives the way we do because of them.

82nd anniversary of D-Day, June 6, 1944. Always remember.

D-Day is underway. Some would argue that what's happening right now is the most daring and ultimately successful operation in the history of military Alliances.
Note: the majority of troops are friends of the US from eight countries. Eisenhower has been told that three-quarters of the 23,400 airborne troops will be lost. He's hoping that the prediction will be wrong.

[Military History Now @MilHistNow]

On this day in 1944, 150,000 Allied soldiers are being loaded onto ships all across southern England. Tomorrow, they'll take part in history's greatest invasion.

“At that time, we didn't know it was D-Day," one veteran would later recall. "We just knew we had a job to do.”

[CBS Evening News with Tony Dokoupil @CBSEveningNews]

This weekend will mark 82 years since D-Day, the largest seaborne assault in history. @TonyDokoupil spoke with 107-year-old veteran Arthur Rose, who was a Navy lieutenant on that day. “I love America. I think it's the savior of the world,” he said.
