title: Ford Everest

text: The Ford Everest is a mid-size SUV produced by Ford Motor Company since 2003. Developed and destined mainly for the Asia-Pacific region with production centered in Thailand, the first-generation Everest is based on the Mazda-based Ford Ranger pickup truck, while the following generations is based on the globally-marketed T6 Ranger. Unlike the Ranger which was paralleled with the Mazda B series or BT-50 until 2020, the Everest has no Mazda equivalent, as it was seen as unfitting for the brand.


title: Ford Everest

text: It is known as the Ford Endeavour in the Indian market to avoid legal issues due to the existence of a spice-making brand with the same name in the country.


title: Ford Everest

text: Ford unveiled the first-generation Everest in March 2003 at the 24th Bangkok International Motor Show. Designed especially for Asian markets, the Everest shares 60 percent of the Ranger's components, including its 2.5-liter intercooled turbo-diesel engine and the exterior styling from the front to the B-pillars. It was revealed that the development of the car took four years and costs US$100 million including investments needed to manufacture the Everest.


title: Ford Everest

text: As it is based on the Ranger, it retained the double wishbone independent front suspension and leaf spring rear suspension from the Ranger, while also engineered into making the level of ride comfort and handling of a standard that is better than the Ranger.


title: Ford Everest

text: The Everest was sold in Southeast Asia, India, Middle East, Central America, the Bahamas and several African countries. It was built at the AutoAlliance Thailand plant in Rayong, and as CKD kits in Chengalpattu, India and Hai Duong, Vietnam. In India, the vehicle was introduced as the Endeavour in 2003.


title: Ford Everest

text: In November 2006, the Everest underwent a major facelift that saw the whole front and side body panels replaced to match the redesign of its base vehicle, the Ranger. Changes also included an updated front fascia, new transmission and an improved engine. In addition, the redesign featured the new 5-speed automatic transmission with BorgWarner transfer case, and an Active-Shift-on-the-Fly function (4x4 only) for the first time. Despite the massive changes, it retained most mechanical parts along with its U268 project code. However, the 2007–2015 model is sometimes referred to as the second-generation Everest by Ford or journalists.


title: Ford Everest

text: A second facelift was introduced in 2009. While the changes were less prominent than the previous facelift, Everest now sports a rounder fascia than its predecessor and was similar with the facelifted Ranger. The changes were achieved by changing the front fender assembly, front hood, front headlights, front grill and front bumper, while it also featured larger 18-inch polished alloy wheels, a redesigned tailgate and new tail lamps.


title: Ford Everest

text: Another smaller update was introduced in 2012, now sporting a revised front grille. In 2013, the Everest received a final facelift, featuring a redesigned front bumper in line with some other global Ford cars.


title: Ford Everest

text: The second-generation Everest was unveiled as a near-production concept vehicle in March 2014 and as a production version November 2014 ahead of its public debut at the Guangzhou International Motor Show. Based on the T6 Ranger, the car is now developed by Ford Australia. In China, the Ford Everest is manufactured by the JMC-Ford joint venture, at JMC's Nanchang factory.


title: Ford Everest

text: It features a complete redesign which featured rounder proportions for a more modern appearance. Dimension-wise, the 2015 Ford Everest is shorter in length but wider and taller, altering its proportions compared to its predecessor. The wheelbase has been reduced from to .


title: Ford Everest

text: The second-generation Everest is used as a basis for a light-duty tactical vehicle for the French military, called the Arquus Trapper VT4.


title: Ford Everest

text: Production and sales of the Endeavour in India ended in 2021 due to the closure of all Ford manufacturing plants in the country. Attempts to continue its production in the country through a contractual basis had fallen through.


title: Ford Everest

text: This model received a facelift in May 2018, coinciding with the Ranger facelift. The facelift included design tweaks, equipment list update, new 2.0-litre bi-turbo diesel engine and 10-speed automatic gearbox. Other changes include Autonomous Emergency Braking, a standard kick-activated power liftgate, and new alloy wheels. Interior changes include more soft touch materials such as ebony dark colour scheme. Another facelift was released for the 2021 year model in November 2020 in Thailand.

title: Cairn Terrier

text: The Cairn Terrier is a terrier breed originating in the Scottish Highlands and recognized as one of Scotland's earliest working dogs. The breed was given the name Cairn because the breed's function was to hunt and chase quarry between the cairns in the Scottish highlands.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Although the breed had existed long before, the name Cairn Terrier was a compromise suggestion after the breed originally was brought to official shows in the United Kingdom in 1909 under the name Short-haired Skye terriers. This name was not acceptable to The Kennel Club due to opposition from Skye Terrier breeders, and the name Cairn Terrier was suggested as an alternative.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Cairns originated in the Scottish Highlands and the Isle of Skye, initially grouped in the "Skye Terrier" class alongside the Scottish and West Highland White Terriers. In the early 1900s, the three breeds began to be bred separately.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: The Kennel Club of the United Kingdom gave the Cairn Terrier a separate register in 1912; the first year of recognition, 134 were registered, and it was in that year that the breed was given Championship status.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: The Cairn Terrier has a harsh weather-resistant outer coat that can be black, cream, wheaten, red, sandy, gray, or brindled in any of these colors. Pure black, black and tan, and white are not permitted by many kennel clubs. While registration of white Cairns was once permitted, after 1917, the American Kennel Club required them to be registered as West Highland White Terriers. A notable characteristic of Cairns is that brindled Cairns frequently change colour throughout their lifetimes. It is not uncommon for a brindled Cairn to become progressively more black or silver as it ages. The Cairn is double-coated, with a soft, dense undercoat and a harsh outer coat. A well-groomed Cairn has a rough-and-ready appearance, free of artifice or exaggeration. The Cairn Terrier was registered into the American Kennel Club in 1903.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Cairn Terriers tend to look similar to a Norwich Terrier, but with some differences (for example the shaggy fur). Their outer layer of fur is shaggy, but they have a soft, downy undercoat. Their ideal weight is also 4.5-7.3 kg (10-16 lb), and the height 9–13 in (23–33 cm).


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Cairn Terriers shed very little, but always should be hand-stripped. Using scissors or shears can ruin the dog's rugged outer coat after one grooming. Hand-stripping involves pulling the old dead hair out by the roots. If done incorrectly, this can cause discomfort to the dog, causing it to shy away from future hand-stripping. Removing the dead hair in this manner allows new growth to come in. This new growth helps protect the dog from water and dirt.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Cairn Terrier ancestors are from Scotland, where the wire coat repels water and keeps the dog dry even in rainy or damp climates. Keeping the Cairn Terrier coat in its original state will prevent possible skin irritations. As dead hair is removed by stripping the coat, new growth comes in, and the skin and coat remain healthy. Clipper-cutting a Cairn might destroy the protective wire coat unique to this breed.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: It is wise to have a pet examined to rule out heritable skin diseases when a Cairn is obtained from unknown sources (i.e. pet stores, rescues, or puppy mills).


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Breeders, owners, and veterinarians have identified several health problems that are significant for Cairns. Some of these diseases are hereditary, and others occur as a result of nonspecific factors (e.g., infections, toxins, injuries, or advanced age).


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Currently, the Cairn Terrier Club of America, along with the Institute for Genetic Disease Control in Animals, maintains an open registry for Cairn Terriers in hopes of reducing the occurrence of hereditary diseases within the breed. Breeders voluntarily submit their dogs' test results for research purposes as well as for use by individuals who seek to make sound breeding decisions.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Cairn Terriers exist happily in an apartment when sufficiently exercised. They are very active indoors and suffice even without a yard. Daily walks help keep Cairn terriers happy and healthy. Fenced-in yards are strongly recommended for safety and well-being as well as being kept on leash when not in the yard.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Cairn Terriers are particularly easily trained; ethical breeders strongly suggest obedience school or some other type of training to direct Cairn Terriers's focus on the owner as the one in command if they are going to be used for hunting. If allowed to take control of the household, behavior problems may develop that only can be resolved by hiring a professional dog trainer. Many breeders only sell puppies to dedicated dog owners who agree to basic obedience school.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: Cairns are active dogs, thus need a daily walk. Play takes care of a lot of their exercise needs; however, as with all breeds, play will not fulfill their primal instinct to walk. Dogs which do not get to go on daily walks are more likely to display behavior problems. They also enjoy a good romp in a safe, open area off leash, such as a large, fenced yard.


title: Cairn Terrier

text: According to Temple Grandin in her book "Animals Make Us Human", dogs need 45 minutes to one hour per day of playing and seeking. Being a new owner of one, play time is more like two hours per day for this breed. After fulfilling this, dogs become balanced and well-mannered. Obedience school is often a good start to creating interactive play using words or commands for a dog to perform specific actions on cue. Teaching a Cairn Terrier tricks is also a clever way to direct their active energy into acceptable, controlled dog games.

title: Darr

text: Kiran is horrified by this and fears that she might go insane. To distract her and calm her, Sunil takes Kiran on a honeymoon to Switzerland while booking extra tickets to Goa so the stalker misunderstands that the couple is in Goa and goes there instead. Rahul falls for the trick and searches all over Goa but to no avail. Instead, he finds his college friend Vikram "Vicky" Oberoi who is suffering from a disease.

title: Darr

text: Sridevi, who had previously worked with Chopra in "Chandni" (1989) and "Lamhe" (1991), was the original choice for the role of Kiran. The role was crafted and planned much like her previous roles in "Chandni" and "Lamhe". Chopra too admitted dressing Kiran like Chandni and Pallavi/Pooja, which can be observed in the film as well. However, Sridevi refused to accept the role, as she wanted Kiran's character to be the obsessed lover instead of the victim, but Chopra refused this change of plot. After Sridevi, the role went to Divya Bharti, who also refused the role due to date issues. The role was then offered to Chawla who accepted it, having previously been a part of "Chandni" in a cameo appearance, as Vinod Khanna's dead fiancée, Devika.


title: Darr

text: Sanjay Dutt was the original choice of the role of antagonist Rahul, but Chopra was unable to finalize him because of his jail sentence due to illegal possession of arms. Sudesh Berry was then considered for the role, but was rejected after a screen test. Ajay Devgn was offered the role of Rahul, but he could not accept due to other commitments.


title: Darr

text: Aamir Khan, who had worked with Chopra on "Parampara" (1993), was then signed as Rahul. Chopra reportedly replaced Bharti with Juhi Chawla at Khan's request. However, problems arose when Khan asked Chopra for a joint narration of the script with him and Sunny Deol. Khan's reasoning for this was that since he and Deol were two leading actors, they could hear their roles and if they were both satisfied, no ego hassles would happen henceforth. However, Chopra refused to heed to such a request. Khan was also unhappy with the way Deol's character beat Rahul up in the film's climax. Khan was then removed from the project. Ironically, after the release of the film, Deol was miffed as he felt that the other male lead role was stronger than his, thus pledging to never work with Chopra and his banner again.


title: Darr

text: After Aamir Khan left the film, Shah Rukh Khan was cast as Rahul. "Darr" ended up catapulting him to stardom, and he went on to star in all of Chopra's future directorial ventures.


title: Darr

text: Rishi Kapoor, Mithun Chakraborty and Jackie Shroff were all offered the role of Sunil, but they all refused. Nitish Bharadwaj was then approached for Sunil's role, due to his popularity as Lord Krishna's role in B. R. Chopra's "Mahabharat". Bharadwaj however rejected the role claiming that the role was not challenging enough.


title: Darr

text: Post his refusal, the role was offered to Sunny Deol. Initially, writer Honey Irani requested Deol to play the antagonist. However, Deol refused to play a negative character due to the career risk involved with it, and hence ended up playing the role of Sunil.


title: Darr

text: The film's title "Darr" was suggested to Chopra by his younger son Uday Chopra and actor Hrithik Roshan.


title: Darr

text: The soundtrack for "Darr" was composed by the duo Shiv-Hari (Shiv Kumar Sharma and Hariprasad Chaurasia) and written by Anand Bakshi.

text: In the United States and Canada, the series was first launched exclusively on iTunes where it remained in the Top Five most downloaded TV seasons for two weeks, with several episodes in the top 100 most downloaded and a 4.5/5 viewer rating. In the United Kingdom, the series was released exclusively on Amazon Prime on 17 June 2016. In the United States, seasons 1-5 are now available to Amazon Prime customers, but require the purchase of either AMC Networks' Sundance Now or AMC+ premium channel additions. In Germany, it was sold to RTL Crime for broadcast in 2016. In Australia, it aired on public broadcaster SBS, and all five seasons are currently available on their free streaming service SBS On Demand until 30 November 2023.


title: The Bureau (TV series)

text: The programme was well received by audiences and critics. In its domestic market, the first season received very positive reviews. "Le Monde" commented on its "mastery of its subject" and "rigorous construction of narrative arcs" and lauded its "different and credible tone". "Le Nouvel Observateur" compared it to "Mad Men" and congratulated it on "staging that exceptional routine with flair and breathing life into a convincing team of heroes".


title: The Bureau (TV series)

text: The second season was immensely popular. "Télérama" called it "captivating, subtly written, staged and acted: a mission accomplished" and "Le Figaro" stated that "to this day, this series is the best ever made in France".


title: The Bureau (TV series)

text: "The New York Times" described the series as "moody, cynical & stylish ... consistently smart and understated". "Broadwayworld" also wrote a positive review, describing it as "a riveting spy story told with psychological sophistication and cinematic flair".


title: Call forwarding

text: Call forwarding, or call diversion, is a telephony feature of all telephone switching systems which redirects a telephone call to another destination, which may be, for example, a mobile or another telephone number where the desired called party is available. Call forwarding was invented by Ernest J. Bonanno. In North America, the forwarded line usually rings once to remind the customer using call forwarding that the call is being redirected. More consistently, the forwarded line indicates its condition by stutter dial tone. Call forwarding typically can redirect incoming calls to any other domestic telephone number, but the owner of the forwarded line must pay any toll charges for forwarded calls. Call forwarding is often enabled by dialing *72 followed by the telephone number to which calls should be forwarded. Once someone answers, call forwarding is in effect. If no one answers or the line is busy, the dialing sequence must be repeated to effect call forwarding. Call forwarding is disabled by dialing *73. This feature requires a subscription from the telephone company. Also available in some areas is Remote Access to call forwarding, which permit the control over call forwarding from telephones other than the subscriber's telephone. VOIP and cable telephone systems also allow call forwarding to be set up and directed via their web portals.


title: Call forwarding

text: In Europe, most networks indicate that unconditional call forwarding is active with a special dial tone. When the phone is picked up it is immediately apparent that calls are being forwarded, while in other countries same system is being followed now.


title: Call forwarding

text: The ISDN Diversion supplementary services standards document uses "diversion" as a general term to encompass specific features including "Call Forwarding Busy", "Call Forwarding No Reply" and "Call Deflection".


title: Call forwarding

text: The terms "call forwarding" and "call diversion" are both used to refer to any feature that allows a call to be routed to a third party, and the terms are generally interchangeable.


title: Call forwarding

text: Special types of call forwarding can be activated only if the line is busy, or if there is no answer, or even only for calls from selected numbers. In North America, the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) generally uses the following vertical service codes to control call forwarding:


title: Call forwarding

text: Most EU fixed-line carriers use the following codes based on CEPT and ETSI standards developed in the 1970s on both POTS and ISDN lines. (There may be some variation to these, but the unconditional code *21* is very much universally standard on EU telephone lines.) The general syntax for all European service codes always follows the pattern below:


title: Call forwarding

text: For GSM/3GSM (UMTS) phones, the GSM standard defines the following forwarding Unstructured Supplementary Service Data. These were developed by ETSI and are based on standard European diversion codes and are similar to those used on most landlines in the EU:


title: Call forwarding

text: If the prefix to the forwarding command is "**" (instead of the usual "*"), then the phone number in that command is registered in the network. If after that the forwarding is deactivated using a command with a single "#", then later it will be possible to re-activate this forwarding again with a simple "*" command without a phone number in it. The forwarding will be re-activated to the number registered in the network. For example, if one uses the out-of-reach code in a forwarding command:


title: Call forwarding

text: then later it will be possible to re-activate the out-of-reach forwarding without specifying a number:


title: Call forwarding

text: After the above command, all calls made to the phone, while it is out of reach, will be forwarded to 7035551212. It is possible to activate the feature to a number other than the registered number, while still retaining the registered number for later use. For example, issuing the command:


title: Call forwarding

text: will result in calls being forwarded to 7185551212 (and not to the "registered number" 7035551212). However, if later a command is issued:


title: Call forwarding

text: then the calls will again be forwarded to the registered number 7035551212 (and not to the number from the previous forwarding command 7185551212).


title: Call forwarding

text: In GSM networks, such as T-Mobile and AT&T Mobility in USA, and all mobile networks in EU, it is possible to set the number of seconds the phone will ring before forwarding. This is specified by inserting ""*SC*XX"" prior to the final "#" of the forwarding command, where ""SC"" is a "service type code" (11 for "voice", 25 for "data", 13 for "fax"), and ""XX"" is the number of seconds in increments of 5 seconds. If ""SC"" is omitted (just ""**XX"") then by default "all service types" will be forwarded. For example, forwarding on no-answer can be set with:


title: Call forwarding

text: In some networks there may be a limit of not more than 30 seconds before forwarding (i.e. “"XX"” can only be 05, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30; all greater values, like 45 and 60, will result in the forwarding command being rejected and an error message returned).


title: Call forwarding

text: Diverting calls can increase one's availability to a caller. The main alternative is an answering machine or voicemail, but some callers do not wish to leave a recorded message, suspecting that the party will delay returning their messages.


title: Call forwarding

text: Some businesses find that the human touch can improve contact, thus sales, but traditional wired answering services are expensive, so they have their calls forwarded to a call center, so the client can reach an operator instead of an answering machine or voice mail. Before the availability of call forwarding, commercial answering services needed to physically connect to every line for which they provided after-hours response; this required their offices be located near the local central exchange and be fed by a huge multi-pair trunk in which a separate pair of wires existed for each client subscriber. With call forwarding, there is no physical connection to the client's main telephone service, which is merely call-forwarded to the answering service (usually on a direct inward dial number) at the end of the business day.


title: Call forwarding

text: Often, a suburb of a large city is a toll call from many suburban exchanges on the opposite side of the same city, even though all of these suburbs are a local call to the city centre. A business located in such a suburb may therefore benefit from obtaining a downtown number as an "extender", to be permanently forwarded to their geographic suburban number.


title: Call forwarding

text: Where unlimited local calls are flat-rated and long-distance incurs high per-minute charges, the downtown number's wider local calling area represents a commercial advantage. Markham (directly north of Toronto) is long-distance to Mississauga (directly west of Toronto). A Markham business with a forwarded 416 number could receive calls from Toronto's entire local calling area without incurring long-distance tolls (as both legs, Mississauga → Toronto and Toronto → Markham, are each a local call).


title: Call forwarding

text: Some services offer international call forwarding by allocating for the customer a local virtual phone number which is forwarded to any other international destination. The number was permanently forwarded and had no associated telephone line. As a means to obtain an inbound number from another town or region for business use, remote call forwarding schemes tend to be far less expensive than foreign exchange lines but more costly than using voice over IP to obtain a local number in the chosen city.


title: Call forwarding

text: Call forwarding can also assist travelers who do not have international cell phone plans and who wish to continue to receive their voicemails through VoIP easily while abroad.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: In probability theory, Chebyshev's inequality (also called the Bienaymé–Chebyshev inequality) guarantees that, for a wide class of probability distributions, no more than a certain fraction of values can be more than a certain distance from the mean. Specifically, no more than 1/"k" of the distribution's values can be "k" or more standard deviations away from the mean (or equivalently, at least 1 − 1/"k" of the distribution's values are less than "k" standard deviations away from the mean). The rule is often called Chebyshev's theorem, about the range of standard deviations around the mean, in statistics. The inequality has great utility because it can be applied to any probability distribution in which the mean and variance are defined. For example, it can be used to prove the weak law of large numbers.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Its practical usage is similar to the 68–95–99.7 rule, which applies only to normal distributions. Chebyshev's inequality is more general, stating that a minimum of just 75% of values must lie within two standard deviations of the mean and 88.89% within three standard deviations for a broad range of different probability distributions.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The term "Chebyshev's inequality" may also refer to Markov's inequality, especially in the context of analysis. They are closely related, and some authors refer to Markov's inequality as "Chebyshev's First Inequality," and the similar one referred to on this page as "Chebyshev's Second Inequality."


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The theorem is named after Russian mathematician Pafnuty Chebyshev, although it was first formulated by his friend and colleague Irénée-Jules Bienaymé. The theorem was first stated without proof by Bienaymé in 1853 and later proved by Chebyshev in 1867. His student Andrey Markov provided another proof in his 1884 Ph.D. thesis.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Chebyshev's inequality is usually stated for random variables, but can be generalized to a statement about measure spaces.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Let "X" (integrable) be a random variable with finite expected value "μ" and finite non-zero variance "σ". Then for any real number ,


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Only the case formula_2 is useful. When formula_3 the right-hand side formula_4 and the inequality is trivial as all probabilities are ≤ 1.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: As an example, using formula_5 shows that the probability that values lie outside the interval formula_6 does not exceed formula_7.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Because it can be applied to completely arbitrary distributions provided they have a known finite mean and variance, the inequality generally gives a poor bound compared to what might be deduced if more aspects are known about the distribution involved.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Let ("X", Σ, μ) be a measure space, and let "f" be an extended real-valued measurable function defined on "X". Then for any real number "t" > 0 and 0 < "p" < ∞,


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: For "n" = 2 we obtain Chebyshev's inequality. For "k" ≥ 1, "n" > 4 and assuming that the "n" moment exists, this bound is tighter than Chebyshev's inequality. This strategy, called the method of moments, is often used to prove tail bounds.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Taking the Legendre–Fenchel transformation of and using the exponential Chebyshev's inequality we have


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: If P("x") has finite support based on the interval , let where |"x"| is the absolute value of . If the mean of P("x") is zero then for all


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The second of these inequalities with is the Chebyshev bound. The first provides a lower bound for the value of P("x").


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Saw "et al" extended Chebyshev's inequality to cases where the population mean and variance are not known and may not exist, but the sample mean and sample standard deviation from "N" samples are to be employed to bound the expected value of a new drawing from the same distribution. The following simpler version of this inequality is given by Kabán.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: where "X" is a random variable which we have sampled "N" times, "m" is the sample mean, "k" is a constant and "s" is the sample standard deviation.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: This inequality holds even when the population moments do not exist, and when the sample is only weakly exchangeably distributed; this criterion is met for randomised sampling. A table of values for the Saw–Yang–Mo inequality for finite sample sizes ("N" < 100) has been determined by Konijn. The table allows the calculation of various confidence intervals for the mean, based on multiples, C, of the standard error of the mean as calculated from the sample. For example, Konijn shows that for "N" = 59, the 95 percent confidence interval for the mean "m" is where (this is 2.28 times larger than the value found on the assumption of normality showing the loss on precision resulting from ignorance of the precise nature of the distribution).

text: A table of values for the Saw–Yang–Mo inequality for finite sample sizes ("N" < 100) has been determined by Konijn.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: In empirical testing this modification is conservative but appears to have low statistical power. Its theoretical basis currently remains unexplored.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The bounds these inequalities give on a finite sample are less tight than those the Chebyshev inequality gives for a distribution. To illustrate this let the sample size "N" = 100 and let "k" = 3. Chebyshev's inequality states that at most approximately 11.11% of the distribution will lie at least three standard deviations away from the mean. Kabán's version of the inequality for a finite sample states that at most approximately 12.05% of the sample lies outside these limits. The dependence of the confidence intervals on sample size is further illustrated below.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: For "N" = 100 the 95% confidence interval is approximately ±4.9595 standard deviations; the 99% confidence interval is approximately ±140.0 standard deviations.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: For "N" = 500 the 95% confidence interval is approximately ±4.5574 standard deviations; the 99% confidence interval is approximately ±11.1620 standard deviations.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: For "N" = 1000 the 95% and 99% confidence intervals are approximately ±4.5141 and approximately ±10.5330 standard deviations respectively.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The Chebyshev inequality for the distribution gives 95% and 99% confidence intervals of approximately ±4.472 standard deviations and ±10 standard deviations respectively.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Although Chebyshev's inequality is the best possible bound for an arbitrary distribution, this is not necessarily true for finite samples. Samuelson's inequality states that all values of a sample will lie within standard deviations of the mean (with probability one).


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: By comparison, Chebyshev's inequality states that all but a "1/N" fraction of the sample will lie within standard deviations of the mean. Since there are "N" samples, this means that no samples will lie outside standard deviations of the mean, which is worse than Samuelson's inequality. However, the benefit of Chebyshev's inequality is that it can be applied more generally to get confidence bounds for ranges of standard deviations that do not depend on the number of samples.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: An alternative method of obtaining sharper bounds is through the use of semivariances (partial variances). The upper ("σ") and lower ("σ") semivariances are defined as


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Stellato et al. simplified the notation and extended the empirical Chebyshev inequality from Saw et al. to the multivariate case. Let formula_29 be a random variable and let formula_30. We draw formula_31 iid samples of formula_32 denoted as formula_33. Based on the first formula_34 samples, we define the empirical mean as formula_35 and the unbiased empirical covariance as formula_36. If formula_37 is nonsingular, then for all formula_38 then


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: In the univariate case, i.e. formula_40, this inequality corresponds to the one from Saw et al. Moreover, the right-hand side can be simplified by upper bounding the floor function by its argument


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: As formula_42, the right-hand side tends to formula_43 which corresponds to the multivariate Chebyshev inequality over ellipsoids shaped according to formula_44 and centered in formula_45.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Chebyshev's inequality is important because of its applicability to any distribution. As a result of its generality it may not (and usually does not) provide as sharp a bound as alternative methods that can be used if the distribution of the random variable is known. To improve the sharpness of the bounds provided by Chebyshev's inequality a number of methods have been developed; for a review see eg.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Cantelli's inequality due to Francesco Paolo Cantelli states that for a real random variable ("X") with mean ("μ") and variance ("σ")


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The bound on the one tailed variant is known to be sharp. To see this consider the random variable "X" that takes the values


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The one-sided variant can be used to prove the proposition that for probability distributions having an expected value and a median, the mean and the median can never differ from each other by more than one standard deviation. To express this in symbols let "μ", "ν", and "σ" be respectively the mean, the median, and the standard deviation. Then


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: There is no need to assume that the variance is finite because this inequality is trivially true if the variance is infinite.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: this implies that the median lies within one standard deviation of the mean. A proof using Jensen's inequality also exists.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: Since formula_59 for "k" close to 1, this bound improves slightly over Cantelli's bound formula_60 as "κ" > 1.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The Vysochanskij–Petunin inequality generalizes Gauss's inequality, which only holds for deviation from the mode of a unimodal distribution, to deviation from the mean, or more generally, any center. If "X" is a unimodal distribution with mean "μ" and variance "σ", then the inequality states that


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: For symmetrical unimodal distributions, the median and the mode are equal, so both the Vysochanskij–Petunin inequality and Gauss's inequality apply to the same center. Further, for symmetrical distributions, one-sided bounds can be obtained by noticing that


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The additional fraction of formula_66 present in these tail bounds lead to better confidence intervals than Chebyshev's inequality. For example, for any symmetrical unimodal distribution, the Vysochanskij–Petunin inequality states that 4/(9 x 3^2) = 4/81 ≈ 4.9% of the distribution lies outside 3 standard deviations of the mode.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: From DasGupta's inequality it follows that for a normal distribution at least 95% lies within approximately 2.582 standard deviations of the mean. This is less sharp than the true figure (approximately 1.96 standard deviations of the mean).


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The Paley–Zygmund inequality gives a lower bound on tail probabilities, as opposed to Chebyshev's inequality which gives an upper bound. Applying it to the square of a random variable, we get


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: One use of Chebyshev's inequality in applications is to create confidence intervals for variates with an unknown distribution. Haldane noted, using an equation derived by Kendall, that if a variate ("x") has a zero mean, unit variance and both finite skewness ("γ") and kurtosis ("κ") then the variate can be converted to a normally distributed standard score ("z"):


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: This transformation may be useful as an alternative to Chebyshev's inequality or as an adjunct to it for deriving confidence intervals for variates with unknown distributions.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: While this transformation may be useful for moderately skewed and/or kurtotic distributions, it performs poorly when the distribution is markedly skewed and/or kurtotic.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: This inequality is related to Jensen's inequality, Kantorovich's inequality, the Hermite–Hadamard inequality and Walter's conjecture.


title: Chebyshev's inequality

text: The Environmental Protection Agency has suggested best practices for the use of Chebyshev's inequality for estimating confidence intervals.

title: Rizzuto crime family

text: The Rizzuto crime family () is an organized crime family based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, whose criminal activity covers most of southern Quebec and Ontario. The United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) considers the family a faction of the Bonanno crime family, while Canadian and most other international law enforcement agencies recognize it as an independent crime family. The Rizzuto family is sometimes referred to as the Sixth Family.


title: Rizzuto crime family

text: Nicolo Rizzuto, a Sicilian immigrant from Cattolica Eraclea, established the organization in the 1970s as part of the Sicilian faction of the Montreal Cotroni crime family. An internal war broke out by the late 1970s which resulted in the death of acting captain Paolo Violi and his brothers, allowing the Rizzutos to overtake the Cotronis as the preeminent crime family in Montreal. Nicolo quickly rose through the ranks of organized crime in Montreal, earning the nickname 'The Canadian Godfather' and 'boss of the Mafia in Canada' from international organized crime expert Antonio Nicaso.


title: Rizzuto crime family

text: Nicolo's son Vito Rizzuto was indicted in 2004 and imprisoned from 2007 until 2012 for murders in which he participated in 1981, causing a power struggle among criminals in Montreal. During Vito's imprisonment, his son Nicolo Jr. was killed in 2009, and Nicolo Sr. was shot by a sniper while in his home in 2010. Upon Vito's release, several people were killed in what was suspected to be retaliation for the murders of his family. Vito died of natural causes in 2013, and the head of the Mafia in Montreal is now assumed to be his son Leonardo.


title: Rizzuto crime family

text: Nicolo Rizzuto married Libertina Manno during the early 1940s, the daughter of a Sicilian Mafia leader, Antonio Manno. Rizzuto emigrated from Sicily with his family to Montreal in 1954.


title: Rizzuto crime family

text: In the 1970s, Rizzuto was an underling in the Sicilian faction, led by Luigi Greco until his death in 1972, of the Calabrian Cotroni crime family. As tension then grew into a power struggle between the Calabrian and Sicilian factions of the family, a mob war began in 1973. In 1977, Rizzuto and Cotroni capodecina Paolo Violi met face-to-face in the home of a Montreal resident for a last-ditch effort to resolve their differences, according to a police report. But the peace talks failed, and most of the Rizzuto family fled to Venezuela. This led to a violent Mafia war in Montreal which resulted in the deaths of Violi and his brothers, along with others, spanning the mid-1970s to the early 1980s until the war ceased. Antonio Manno's son Domenico was also instrumental in Violi's murder. He received a seven-year sentence after pleading guilty to conspiring to kill Violi; Rizzuto confidant Agostino Cuntrera received a five-year sentence in relation to Violi's murder. By the mid 1980s, the Rizzuto crime family emerged as Montreal's pre-eminent crime family after the turf war.


title: Rizzuto crime family

text: Nicolo's son, Vito, later followed him into the Mafia. He kept a low profile, working only with trusted people close to the family. They worked with the Cuntrera-Caruana Mafia clan, Colombian and Venezuelan drug cartels, and the Bonanno crime family in New York City. Gerlando Sciascia was a Bonanno caporegime that served as a representative for the Rizzutos. Rizzuto was the mediator who oversaw the peace among the Hells Angels, the Mafia, street gangs, Colombian cartels, and the Irish mobs such as the West End Gang.

text: Canadian Mafia journalists Lee Lamothe and Adrian Humphreys dubbed the Rizzuto clan the Sixth Family to describe them on an equal footing with the Five Families of Cosa Nostra in New York. According to the book "The Sixth Family":


title: Rizzuto crime family

text: After consolidation of their power in the 1990s, the Rizzutos became over-exposed and over-extended. Vito Rizzuto was arrested on January 20, 2004, in Montreal, for his involvement in the May 5, 1981, gangland killings of three rival Bonanno crime family captains (Alphonse Indelicato, Philip Giaccone and Dominick Trinchera) and was sentenced to a 10-year prison sentence on May 4, 2007.

text: In 2005, a 300 kilogram shipment of a total 1,300 kilograms of cocaine, co-organized by Rizzuto family confidant, Francesco Del Balso and West End Gang member, Richard Griffin, was intercepted in Boucherville, Quebec, by police. After Griffin invested $1.5 million in the purchase and transportation of the cocaine, he demanded $350,000 from the Rizzutos for not taking preventative measures in transporting the drugs. After arguments about the debts, Griffin was riddled with gunfire outside his home in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce on July 12, 2006. On August 30, 2006, 35-year old Domenico Macri, a Rizzuto family enforcer and protégé of Francesco Del Balso, was murdered in a drive-by shooting as he waited at a traffic light in his Cadillac car in downtown Montreal. On November 22, 2006, the senior leadership of the criminal organization was hit by the largest RCMP operation in Canadian history, named Project Colisée, lasting four years; the RCMP had fitted the Rizzutos' headquarters, the Consenza Social Club, with microphones and cameras to amass sufficient evidence against the organization. Among the 90 people arrested were Nicolo Rizzuto, father of Vito Rizzuto, Paolo Renda, Vito Rizzuto's brother-in-law, Rocco Sollecito, Francesco Arcadi, Lorenzo Giordano and Francesco Del Balso.

They were signed to Island Records from their 2004 launch until December 2007, before creating their own label, Super Records.


title: McFly

text: McFly rose to fame after fellow band Busted, with whom they later formed McBusted, helped launch them by inviting them to tour in 2004. In 2005, they won the Brit Award for Best British Pop Act. McFly's debut album "Room on the 3rd Floor" debuted at number 1 in the UK Album Chart and is certified as double platinum; this led to them becoming known as the youngest band ever to have an album debut at number one—a title taken from the Beatles. A month after the album was released, the band had their first UK headlining tour.


title: McFly

text: The band's second album, "Wonderland", which was released in 2005, also charted at number 1 in the UK making them the youngest band to have topped the UK album charts twice. Their third album, "Motion in the Ocean", was released on 6 November 2006 and charted at number 6 in the UK. McFly released their "All the Greatest Hits" compilation album on 5 November 2007, which charted at number 4 in the UK.

title: McFly

text: In November 2013, it was announced that McFly would be joining forces with Busted to form the "supergroup" McBusted. They played a 34-date tour with both Busted and McFly songs. The only member of the original groups not to participate in the new lineup was former Busted singer Charlie Simpson.

title: McFly

text: In 2001, Tom Fletcher auditioned for Busted, but lost out on the place to Charlie Simpson. Fletcher was originally accepted as part of Busted's line-up, but Island Records went on to reassess the situation and eventually decided to have the band as a three-piece rather than a four-piece. Though the record label decided against offering Fletcher a place in Busted, they were intrigued by his songwriting talents and later offered him a place on Busted's songwriting 'team', alongside band member (and already accomplished songwriter) James Bourne, whom Fletcher credits with helping him to compose melodies.


title: McFly

text: While writing Busted's second album, "A Present for Everyone", Fletcher was asked by the record label if he was available to film auditions for a new band, V. It was at this time that Jones and Fletcher met for the first time; Danny Jones went to the audition mistaking the band to be an instrumental band rather than the conventional, all-singing, all-dancing boyband, for which they were intended. Fletcher was impressed with Jones' unique style and so approached and invited him to write with himself and Bourne. When writing projects for Busted had come to an end, the two began collaborating for their own (yet unnamed) band and, eventually, moved into the InterContinental Hotel in London for two months, (while still receiving help from Bourne) to concentrate on writing together. Bassist Dougie Poynter and drummer Harry Judd were subsequently recruited via a classified advertisement in the "NME" magazine. The pair, both Essex lads, coincidentally turned up at the same audition and got to talking over their shared appreciation of the band The Starting Line, after Poynter noticed their name and logo was printed on Judd's T-shirt.


title: McFly

text: McFly's early sound was surf/pop rock. Their debut single, "5 Colours in Her Hair", released 29 March 2004, entered the UK Singles Chart at number 1 in April 2004 and stayed there the following week. In July 2004 their second single, "Obviously", also topped the charts. This was followed by the album "Room on the 3rd Floor" debuting at number 1 in the UK Albums Chart. It would go on to be certified double platinum by the British Phonographic Industry. The album broke records, as McFly earned an award from Guinness World Records for being the youngest band to have a debut album enter the charts in the top position, a distinction previously held by The Beatles. The idea for the album name came from where Jones and Fletcher wrote most of the songs for the album: room 363 in the InterContinental Hotel in London. The third single, "That Girl", was released on 6 September 2004, placing at number 3. The fourth single, Room on the 3rd Floor, the album's title track, was released on 15 November 2004 and reached number 5. McFly supported Busted on their nationwide arena tour along with V in February 2004 and then had their first headlining tour in September 2004.
