Mathematical Forecasting Initiative 118

Last week someone sent me a link to this site and until today I didn't have time to go and have a look.

The Mathematical Forecasting Initiative is supposedly and offshoot of the DHARMA Initiative and has some interesting threories about mathematics and numbers in general. There are some entertaining videos with Dr Marvin Candle and lots of mentions of Valenzetti and the numbers.

While I'm reasonably sure that this not an official ABC or LOST produced website, as it is Italian in origin and has the initials of a defunct furniture sales chain in the UK, it is rather interesting for those that have followed LOST ARG's in the past.

I thought it was about time for a new post and this looks rather nice although I don't think it is anything official.

Ellen said...

Hi Zort! So glad to "see" you!
xxoo

Zort70 said...

Hi Ellen, I'm usually around just not posting much at the moment. Lots of things in real life to deal with.

ChrisL said...

Real life... ugh! who needs that!

Hi Ellen, hi Zort. Interesting site.

Amy Lynn said...

cool :)

Just Thinking said...

Well- first thing I notice is the videos were produced at "Ann Harbor"-so that does sound like someone listened to the name and just translated it wrong!

Hi Zort-yes-TRW is definitely a hindrance sometimes.

Tess315 said...

Happy Easter to those who celebrate.

Zort70 said...

Yes, Happy Easter to all

ChrisL said...

Too much chocolate in this house :-/

MJCarp said...

:( no chocolate in this house.

Happy Easter Day :)

IWish said...

I made homemade chocolate turtles...the candy. That's it for me.

I will make a pineapple up-side-down cake later. Yum-m-m-m...

Happy Easter!

ChrisL said...

Mmmmm, pineapple up-side-down cake...

Ray said...

Happy Easter everyone! I ate too much chocolate-stuffed
French toast and will definitely be in a food coma watching this laker game. Enjoy the awesome weather!

Sam G said...

I was wondering when no one was saying anything at all.

Patmc said...

I think everyone is in a Easter, sugar-induced coma! LOL

Good to see some people we haven't seen in a while!

Wooooah! Holy crap! Just had a pretty darn big earthquake! USGS says it was a 6.9 quake in Mexico... but it was a VERY strong shake here! I'm guessing there will probably be some pretty good aftershocks too. I'm happy to report that my LOST Shrine survived it's first earthquake... LOL

Gonna go check for any damage outside... but I think we're OK. Ah, the fun of living in Southern California! Talk to ya later...

Amy Lynn said...

Patmc, glad to hear you are okay. Hope all the SoCal LOSTies are doing well, and not too shaken up.

maven said...

Glad you and your shrine are okay, Patc! The quake swayed my chandeliers and last for a long time (I heard 25 sec.). But you're much closer to the epicenter and I'm sure felt it stronger than I did. It's now been upgraded to 7.2! And they're saying the whole area is very active seismically now!

Just Thinking said...

Saw some video of the quake on the news-water sloshing out of a swimming pool- yousa!

Best to all in CA.

Anonymous said...

Nice post. This is definitely a nice new thing to check out. :)

Martyn said...

Oooo, a shiny new post!

Best wishes to those in the earthquake zone. Hope there's not too much damage!

I defied myself and opened up my lost toys and displayed them in honour of patmcs awesome shrine. Not as cool though. My lost wall is also in honour of lottery tickets and andalones but alas it looks no where near as cool.

Patmc said...

@Martyn - good for you! Those toys were meant to be enjoyed... not spend their life closed up in a box! LOL

Thanks everyone for all the nice comments regarding the earthquake. Luckily, there was very little damage. Southern California has some of the toughest building codes in the world, and yesterday showed exactly why it is that way.

As a Californian, I'm used to quakes... but this was definitely the longest I've ever experienced. It was almost a full minute of shaking, including a few very large jolts. Pretty freaky, because you just don't know when it's going to stop. Not huge strength, but the shaking was strong enough to make you start to worry.

And I'm happy to report that the LOST Shrine is now earthquake resistant! LOL! I didn't go to sleep last night until I had earthquake straps on that bad boy. In the ultimate irony, I had just purchased the earthquake straps on Saturday... less than a day before the quake. I figured it would be best NOT to tempt fate again... :-)

@JustThinking - I texted my friends who are in El Centro (which is much closer to the epicenter of the quake) immediately after I saw where the quake was, to see if they were OK. She told me that her apartment had been hit with a mini-tsunami when the water in the swimming pool sloshed out, and ran right into her place! I'm still waiting for some pictures.

If anyone wants to see how many quakes have hit that area since the big 7.2, check out this link:

http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Maps/116-33.html

If you scroll down, you can click on individual earthquakes... including the 7.2 monster that kicked off all the activity. If you look at the direction the activity is spreading... notice that it is just about to touch one of those thin red lines. That line is the Elsinore Fault... which runs within about 15 miles of my home. We're hoping that everything stays south of the border!

Sam G said...

I was driving to Easter Dinner and we never felt the quake, of course, we went over some big bumps and one of those could have been the earthquake. ?

Ray said...

More good news: Lost won Hulu's best in show! woohoo!

IWish said...

That is good news...but not surprised. Lost is the best show ever.

For some unknown reason quite a few years ago, I began experiencing "motion sensitivity". I get vertigo when I feel the floor moving (in front of a row of elevators for example). I know...it's weird. A coworker told me that they could use me as an earthquake detector. lol...

Glad to hear all is well with our west coasters.

Happy LOST Day everyone! Can't wait to find out more about Des tonight!

Had another aftershock last night, but I think the worst is behind us now (knock on wood).

Sam G said...

Nate Duval had The Barracks up on Etsy today.

Martyn said...

internet working, but showing off. Going a bit too fast for a computer that hasn't worked for 4 days. My first negative experience with a Mac!

Anyway,i'd like to extend a special Happy LOST day to Maven!

And a Happy LOST day to all the people we haven't seen in a long time. Rev Milo, Thorsten, MiddayShadows, Zort and anyone else I have stupidly forgot!

Sam G said...

Very happy I got the Ab Aeterno poster and I think a few other ARGers might have gotten it also.

Patmc said...

Be sure to check out the latest Tyler Stout print... It is a movie poster for "Best Worst Movie" (about the making of the hysterically bad "Troll 2"):

http://www.slashfilm.com/2010/04/06/cool-stuff-tyler-stouts-best-worst-movie-poster/

And while I'm at it... be sure to grab this weeks LOST Bingo cards from Ian Leino. They've been updated for this week's Des-centric episode. They are free, but he will take donations if you feel so motivated:

http://www.ianleino.com/Share/BingoCards-C.pdf

Amy Lynn said...

@patmc, you might want to delete that. There are people who are still spoiler free about tonight's centric.

Martyn said...

Like me :(

Don't worry about it, it's mainly the aftermath that all you americans leave on twitter and facebook I have to avoid, otherwise my mind gets pre-blown and I feel slightly disappointed in an episode.

Best definition of mind pre-blowing: Everyone said Pulp Fiction was an amazing film and I really should watch it.

Watched it.

Didn't like it one bit.

NS said...

This site is fake.

Happy late Easter to all.

Martyn said...

And I just learnt there was a Spaced poster by Tyler Stout??? Seriously? I now have to spend my evening trying to track one down. I just can't get out of this poster buying business!!!

ChrisL said...

@Martyn... I think a few of us are having that problem... wall space wall space... bigger house bigger house...

Happy LOST day folks... enjoy.

ChrisL said...

Picked up Smoke Break from Bob The Framer at the weekend. Lovely.

Amy Lynn said...

I was browsing the Lostpedia forums, and they've been having a countdown to tonight's episode since December. So I'm thinking we're in for a good one, since I haven't seen any other countdowns there.

I'm really, really hoping tonight's episode has some kind of game changer.

Ray said...

@Amy Lynn: sounds like it will be, judging my Carlton's latest tweet.

Enjoy everyone! Can't wait!

Patmc said...

I'm very sorry! I thought that since we all got to see him with his head hanging off of the dock last week... that it was a bit implied. I always try to be spoiler free... especially as I have friends in the UK.

If I ruined it for anyone, I'm sorry... :-(

Amy Lynn said...

@Ray... just checked Carlton's tweet... A. MEN.

Amy Lynn said...

@Patmc, yeah, fairly obvious. However, there's still one main character who hasn't had a centric, and several times this season we have left off somewhere, only to pick the storyline back up two weeks later, instead of one.

Martyn said...

Don't worry about it Patmc, I was spoiled for whose episode Ab Aerterno was and I still think it my favourite of the season so I can only imagine this one will come as close! I guess I can roll my mouse over the countdown timer to see the name of the episode now.

Plus, I'll just spoil all the good Doctor Who's for you! :D

Seriously, it's cool, barely a spoiler!

Amy Lynn said...

Random schedule comment. The "off" week that was scheduled for May 18th was moved to 4/27, instead. There'll be a repeat of "Ab Aeterno" on 4/27, and that's it.

Ray said...

Another wall space issue: Just picked up Dan McCarthy's new print, Pink Moon. Loved it right away and bought it on impulse before I could change my mind.

Martyn said...

@Ray...

It got a loud WHOA from me as the image loaded in the email but it's just a bit too pink for me. I am staring at it though, trying to convince myself otherwise but no, I will be resisting this months print.

Sam G said...

I joined Dan Mccarthy's print club last month. Love the new print.

http://danmccarthy.org/PRINT.DETAIL/99165.pink.moon.html

Martyn said...

The one i'm saving my money for is the Tim Doyle Ghostbusters print. Glow in the Dark of course. Every time I look at it, I can hear the siren blaring from the wagon!

Also, I visited the fire station when I was last in New York so it's got dual meaning to me. Sadly, I can't convince myself with the Barracks in the same way.

IWish said...

Oh gawd, Amy Lynn. I'm so psyched for this ep now.

Sam G - McCarthy's Pink Moon is very nice.

I just emailed the link to Dan's site to my former supervisor earlier today. I'm hoping to convince her (in a nice way) that she really should consider buying one of his prints for her new office. Far be it for me to tell someone what they should consider as art ...but I'm SURE you won't find it at the local discount outlet.

ahh tonights episode was so good!!!!!!!!!

That was amazing!!!!!! Even better than Ab Aeterno!!! And Desmond is trending! UKers you need to find a way to watch the ep as soon as you wake up!

Holy cow, is my head spinning! We just finished, and my wife and I are about to start our re-watch! And the aftershocks aren't helping! We just had 2 aftershocks, only 12 seconds apart! Sheesh! I feel so freaky tonight!

XXXHardcore said...

@Jeffrey

Forget DCaaPB prints! I'm even more of a fan of the Sam & Max Hit The Road poster!

ChrisL said...

Jeffrey, nice job on your Crash and LS, they look superb.

I'm super excited about last nights Ep... about to download but have to get through the work day before I can watch :-(

Unknown said...

@XXXHardcore

Haha yeah, there are tons of old lucasarts games made into posters here:

http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s&threadid=195492

I get free high-quality printing at work, so I had the Sam and Max one made!

Patmc said...

I'm STILL trying to get a handle on last night's episode... even after two viewings! I can not believe that everything gets all wrapped up in 5 more episodes!

Just a quick update to the LOST Shrine: I have a resident living there now. Behold! The mighty (mini) Tawerete! I've already got earthquake putty on his feet to keep him standing during the next quake! :-)

And the latest "overall" shot of the whole thing...

Martyn said...

WHOA!

Ray said...

@PatMC

Where'd you get the taweret? Is that one of the replicas that I see on ebay occasionally?

Patmc said...

Sadly... I did NOT have the $800+ for a real one... so yes... it is one of the Ebay replicas. :-)

I got to see the real ones at the Gallery 1988 event, and I'm almost certain that the person I got my replica from, created a mold off of one of the real ones... and just makes additional copies to sell, from the mold. Pretty good scam... er... idea. LOL!

I don't remember which of the LOSTarg folks who were at the event, got one of the Statues (except LotteryTicket, who donated hers to the Autism fundraiser). If anyone here has one, maybe they could make a mold, and sell them to others here for a little bit more reasonable price. If anyone does have one, I'd be happy to walk them through how to make a mold themselves. Actually... I'd love to get a mold for myself, to make some for the folks in my local LOST group! If anyone has a genuine Tawarete, give me a shout... It would be awesome to let more folks from here get one! Let Operation "Little Man" commence! hahaha!

I also saw today that ABC is now selling sterling silver "Drive Shaft" rings... like Charlie wore. They look awesome, but they're $165! I actually have a plastic one, that I got as part of the LOST Fan Club (which folded after Season 1). I have been thinking about making a mold of that, and trying my hand at some metal castings to make some copies. It's quite a bit more complicated than resin or plaster casting, so I'll have to see how much it would cost to put all the materials together... and figure out if it is still worth it.

On a side note... has anyone else noticed how much more LOST merchandise ABC has this year? Why in the hell haven't they been doing this for the last 5 seasons???

Martyn said...

@patmc...

There seems to be new products emailed to me every week from ABC, inspired by last nights episode. Seems they've only just realised that we tend to buy anything lost related, lol.

Amy Lynn said...

LOL @ Martyn.

My problem with the ABC merchandise is that it's completely uninspired? I could go on Zazzle or CafePress and come up with something more than a bunch of crossed out names on a t-shirt.

I MUCH prefer TeeFury, which employs real artists to make LOST tees.

Martyn said...

Patmc said...

Bah! Just had another moderate earthquake. Looks like a 5.3, in the exact same spot as the original 7.2 quake that started all of this shaking.

I REALLY hate earthquakes at work! I'm on the 5th floor of an office building... and earthquakes don't shake the building like it does in a single story building. The motion is more of a side to side swaying motion... and it is VERY disorienting! It feels like your equilibrium is off-kilter... and it makes me dizzy.

@AmyLynn - I'm not crazy about ABC's T-shirts either, but mostly because the material is tissue paper thin. Tee Fury shirts are very thick cotton... much more comfortable, and doesn't feel like you could rip it if you brush against something. I do like the jewelry though...

@Martyn - Exactly! Have the ABC Marketing people been asleep for the last 5 years, or what? LOL

Sam G said...

I think that's why they let the fans go to town on Cafe Press.

Martyn said...

Speaking of t-shirts, here are a few awesome tees:

andalone said...

Patmc, I purchased one of the replica Tawerets from the ebay seller as well. I love it even though it is a knock-off. Taweret is such an iconic symbol of the show (and just plain cool!)I display mine in an acrylic case intended for bobbleheads.

http://twitpic.com/118zg9

I am also very excited that I was one of the first 5 purchasers of drMikey's "AB Aeterno" - he was guest artist at Justin's site - , so won a mini Taweret bust. I think I will put it in a matching acrylic display box (size intended for a baseball)

I have been a LOST TeeFury junkie as well, so have purchased a couple of the designs in XL to make into throw pillows. WWJLD and DUDE are on the sewing table now. I think they will add a nice touch to my LOST room. Will post pics when I am done. I am really behind on personal projects. Work keeps seeping into free time.

And lastly...(sorry for long-winded post)...The sterling DS ring is awesome, but for those that don't want to invest quite so much money, I purchased a nice non-precious metal version from a seller on ebay. The seller's name is costumebase and the ring costs $29.99. Here is link:

Ray said...

You guys hear about that petition to JJ Abrams to continue Lost? Totally NOT on board with this. The Producers have tried very hard to make this a standalone story and I think continuing something that is already so great would be disrespectful. I'm pretty sure JJ Abrams is on the same page, but I'm surprised so many people feel so strongly that it should continue.

@andalone - waiting for my mini bust of taweret as well! That was a great puzzle, I really enjoyed it

Jacob and MIB Action Figures

RobPerrin said...

I've got a bunch of the Mego Trek figures, so I'm very tempted to pre-order Jacob & MIB. I only wish Entertainment Earth's shipping to Canada were a bit more reasonable.

I'm also really into Branden Otto's LOST art. His new one, "Just Progress", will be on sale Tuesday. It features Desmond, Charlie and Daniel, which ties in nicely with this week's ep. Check it out on Branden's site

Unknown said...

Im watching the latest Lost video podcast (08.04.10). Anyway, in the first 10 seconds of it, there is a preview of the MIB/Jacob action figures. They actually look ok compared to Locke, Hurley, Kate and Ben. They don't look brilliant but there's a better choice of clothing chosen for them.

Patmc said...

@Jason - I know... I spent a half hour today using Google to try to find out where to pre-order them, with no success. Then, low and behold... @Jopinionated tweeted the details:

First #SDCC 2010 Exclusive Revealed! #Lost Jacob and Man in Black 8-inch action figures. Pre-order today! http://bit.ly/9u4leS

I've already got mine pre-ordered... :-)

$40 to ship to the UK??? No, I think I'll resist this one. Has anyone seen pictures of the figures, seeIng as EE says image coming soon?

Unknown said...

@Patmc - Haha. I would get it but I much rather have the bobbleheads. :) The only one that I have is Benjamin Linus. A month ago, I saw is on eBay selling for $103. Luckily I got it early.

Unknown said...

Well that's annoying. $36.95 to ship to Australia.

Unknown said...

@Martyn - The figures are in the new Lost Video Podcast. They are shown in the first 10 seconds.

Sam G said...

People really just have to learn to let go. They did the same with Harry Potter. The bet stories have a definite end.

Ray said...

Got my stuff from Dr. Mikey today, pretty cool! Giving the print to my mom, she's got a huge crush on Alpert. Got legless taweret plopped up on my desk.

Martyn said...

Ahh, will check the podcast out later then.

As for the toys, I reckon I'll have to do a bulk order to justify the postage cost. Hmmm, maybe I'll get the hurley and john Locke bobbelhead to go with my haliwax bobble. May throw in Richard Alpert and faraday if they're still available.

If any UKers want to add to my order and split the shipping, let me know. Just going to see if shipping increases the more you add first.

Martyn said...

Ok, I'm just going to order the Jacob and MIB as it's getting stupid with the postage costs. So if anyone in the UK wants the Jacob and MIB figures as well, let me know as it works out cheaper for us both.

MJCarp said...

Hi, all. Ray, "Legless" I like. Going to plop mine in red-carpet sand diorama. lol Spent an hour at framers, (got lots of weird looks and could not even begin to explain) for the balance of LOST 'other' art.

Received a nice note today from the LOST fan who donated to Autism Speaks for the statue. Turns out he is a member of the Dharma Dummies (www.dharmadummies.com). So cool. We've known each other virtually and now have a new connection.

Hope everyone has a nice weekend. Lotto

Unknown said...

@Martyn - There are now pictures of the figures on the site.

Martyn said...

I've seen them Jason. Not impressed with MIB but Jacob seems to be the best of all of them in my opinion. I'm only going to get this one though, they are pretty bad overall and makes me wonder what macfarlane would of done with them :(

Sam G said...

Can't remember if anyone has posted this
http://www.aintitcool.com/node/44406

http://www.fandango.com/timestalklivelost_132325/movietimes

Description: Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, the creators of LOST, will have an in-depth live discussion about the show's creation, its six years on the air, and its finale on May 23, 2010. The TimesTalks Participants include Award winning Carlton Cuse, who currently executive produces LOST, along with Damon Lindelof, the co-creator and executive producer for the LOST series. The discussion will be interspersed with video clips from past shows as well as a one-minute sneak peak from the finale. The discussion will be followed by a 30-40 minute Q&A with questions taken from the live crowd at the NYT Center, pre-submitted fan questions and questions texted from guests on event night. Guests will be offered the opportunity to text in a question.

Unknown said...

@Martyn - Yeh, overall they are pretty lousy. Dammit. Why did McFarlane stop?!?!!? I still need to collect Series 2, Locke and The Hatch.

Martyn said...

@Jason...

I think someone said it was because series 2 didn't perform very well. I don't even remember them ever being released to be honest, they sort of slipped under the radar. I was waiting for the eko one and was looking forward to desmond in series 3.

I just need the hatch, jack, Shannon and sawyer to complete my macfarlane collection. I'll put them on the backburner for a while as I'm trying to complete my Gorillaz kidrobot collection and failing with the two most popular ones. All this stuff came out when I could only afford one you see.

Unknown said...

Yeh... Its such a disappointment that Series 3 didnt come out. I would have loved to have the 'Plane Crash' diorama and Desmond.

Martyn said...

@Jason...

Was there supposed to be a plane crash diorama? That would of been awesome!

Martyn said...

While searching for all the toys that would have been in series 3, I found a petition that someone started, I imagine back in 2008, so I don't think they are paying much attention to it. but still...

http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?ab342ak3

Unknown said...

@Martyn - Yeah. According to Lost Wiki there was supposed to be a Sayid, Desmond, Claire, Ben and Plane Crash Diorama. Disappointing huh? I also joined the petition last year and nothing has changed :(

LOST PRINT in MAY

MJCarp said...

you need to email now with LOST as subject

Just Thinking said...

Re Claire and Squirrel Baby bobble-if they run out at Comic con- does that mean no one who preordered will get one? Is it first orders in first filled if they have some left over?

andalone said...

@Just Thinking - I think pre-ordering now reserves one. The preorders will be deducted from 1500 quantity.

I preordered Ben last year, and he shipped about a week after Comic Con.

Just wanted to let you all know... TeeFury has another LOST themed T-Shirt today. For anyone who is a fan of late 1960s TV... I think you're going to like it. :-)

As always... It's only available for 24 hours (Tuesday, April 13th), then it's gone forever! So if you like it... don't delay!

HAPPY LOST DAY!!!

Unknown said...

Bobbleheads... So awesome... When did the bobblehead craze (for tv shows) start? Dwight Schrute's Bobblehead from The Office?

RobPerrin said...

Exciting day yesterday, I received 3 LOST prints in the mail.
First, "We Have to Go Back" by Jimmy Goose -- there's something magical about this print that I really like.
Second, Tim Doyle's "The Numbers" a.k.a. "Hurley's Curse" which I purchased off of eXXX for a decent price. Still not one of my favourites style-wise, but it does look kinda cool in person.
Finally, Branden Otto's "Candidates", which looks just as awesome in person as it does on his site."Candidates" is actually the first print of a two-print diptych (forgive my redundancy). The second print, "Just Progress" is up for sale today at 2PM EST. Looks like Branden will also be selling six 2-print sets today, so if you missed Candidates you've got a second chance.

RobPerrin said...

Oh, and damn you teefury.com for making me buy another T-shirt! :-)
