Crisis narrows China-UK gap About this Video 200 years ago, United Kingdom was a leading nation of the world – both in regard to health and economy.

Related content Data visualization Data visualization or data visualisation is viewed by many disciplines as a modern equivalent of visual communication. It is not owned by any one field, but rather finds interpretation across many (e.g. it is viewed as a modern branch of descriptive statistics by some, but also as a grounded theory development tool by others). It involves the creation and study of the visual representation of data, meaning "information that has been abstracted in some schematic form, including attributes or variables for the units of information".[1] A primary goal of data visualization is to communicate information clearly and efficiently to users via the information graphics selected, such as tables and charts. Effective visualization helps users in analyzing and reasoning about data and evidence. It makes complex data more accessible, understandable and usable.

Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2012 March 12 Information is beautiful: war games Amid confusion over the rise in defence cuts, I was surprised to learn that the UK has one of the biggest military budgets in the world - nearly £40bn ($60 bn) in 2008. But I was less surprised to see who had the biggest. Yep, the United States spent a staggering $607bn (£402 bn) on defence in 2008. Currently engaged in what will likely be the longest ground war in US history in Afghanistan. Harbourer of thousands of nuclear weapons. 1.5m soldiers. Fleets of aircrafts, bombs and seemingly endless amounts of military technology.
Behance Tesla Interface Concept Inspired by the 17 inch touchscreen of Tesla's awesome Model S we designed an interface concept for a new generation of car infotainment systems. Based on Teslas current interface we designed a concept using responsive widgets that can be rearranged on a flexible grid. The widgets are available in multiple sizes and can freely be combined for a customized user experience while a color coding system makes it easier to quickly find the functions you’re looking for. This is an early stage concept that was built within a few weeks as a side project. We are aware that it’s much harder to design a car interface under real life conditions with all the technical and budgetary restrictions of building a production car for the mass market. Rhetological Fallacies A brain-blending categorisation and visualisation of errors and manipulations of rhetoric and logical thinking. How many do you use? The word ‘rhetological’ is made up. Just so I can munge two types of entity: rhetorical techniques and logical fallacies. Both are used heavily by institutional powers – governments, religions, political parties, across the entire spectrum to sway opinion, confuse and obfuscate. And, unfortunately, we internalise them, like bad habits, into our own decision-making and mental processes.
Boxing Clever: What Law Firms Can Learn From Effective Business Intelligence (Edge Int'l) By Tony Bash, Edge International, UK Managing for success May 2012 10 PRACTICE MANAGEMENT: BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE Ihave been working with law firms for longer than I care to remember, and, over those years, one of the more common terms bandied about has been business intelligence (BI). Sadly, however, time and again, that intelligence has provided very little real insight. This is because effective BI isn’t what often masquerades as it in law firms – a pack of Excel spreadsheets about the firm’s performance that goes out in a hardcopy monthly management report. And no, it isn’t any better if the reports are emailed as PDFs or put on the intranet! BI isn’t anything to do with data that looks at the past, since, as we hear so often, the past is no guide to the future.
