Tony Stewart Returns to Racing After Crash That Killed Fellow Driver

Tony-stewart

Three-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Tony Stewart returned to racing on Sunday in Atlanta following a three-week absence after his car hit and killed fellow driver Kevin Ward Jr. at a dirt race track in New York on Aug. 9


"I’ve taken the last couple weeks off out of respect for Kevin and his family, and also to cope with the accident in my own way," Stewart said in a statement. "It’s given me the time to think about life and how easy it is to take it for granted."



Stewart has missed or canceled races in New York, Indiana, Michigan and Tennessee since the incident, two of which were part of the Sprint Cup. Missing any regular season Sprint Cup race normally disqualifies a driver from competing in The Chase — NASCAR's version of the post-season — but NASCAR has granted Stewart an exemption Read more...

Free Legal Creative Commons Licensed Music Downloads [Sound Sunday]

Creative Commons Music Featured Image

Since man gained a notion of self, creative work has been haunted by the idea of ownership. Yet isn’t it in the nature of everything that one creation breeds the next? In essence, everything you see in this world is a copy or a remix of some kind. Whether you’re considering the origin of a tree, a human being, or this article, everything comes from something and nothing is created in a vacuum. It thus makes sense to release ownership and freely share your creations with everyone. This is where the idea of Creative Commons comes in. All music featured...

How Big Data Could Help Prevent the Next Ferguson

Ferguson-11

Watson is getting its data-analyzing hands into everything. From health care to food science, IBM's "cognitive supercomputer" — who won Jeopardy more than three years ago — is taking on the intellectual heavy lift of sifting through enormous amounts of data, so humans don't have to.


One area where it's just getting started is law enforcement, where Watson's data-processing abilities have enormous potential to speed up investigations, which generate thousands of pages of paperwork. The computer can process those documents in the time it took to read this sentence, potentially giving detectives the best actionable leads much faster than before. Read more...
