    No, but PISA is somewhat rigged, not because of some conspiracy but because several countries like Denmark or South Korea have special programs to prepare it.

    western cultural norms.
    I'm sure Emotional Intelligence tests are more useful and not totally broken. IQ tests have their uses, aside from bragging rights, when used properly. People like to despise everything that challenges their intelligence because most are terribly immature when dealing with failure.

    I disagree completely. The links I posted show that the test measures knowledge that has nothing to do with intelligence.
    You are insinuating that anyone who complains about this BS "metric" is just engaged in sour grapes. Get real.

    Take the reported numbers comparing different countries. There are no error/uncertainty bounds on them. This is
    total BS since the tests are done as statistical samples. So a 2 point difference in IQ testing is meaningless.

    A commonly chosen confidence interval is 68 percent. Suppose you are trying to predict what an 11-year old child’s IQ score will be at the age of 21 and you know that there’s a .70 correlation in the general population between IQ measured at age 11 and IQ measured at age 21 (this correlation is at the upper end of what is typically found). Based solely on that information, what range of IQ scores can you expect he will obtain on his twenty-first birthday?

    It depends how confident you want to be. If you are only 68 percent confident, you can expect that the child’s true score is somewhere within 10 points of his 11-year-old score (in both directions—10 points higher or 10 points lower than his original IQ score). But that’s with only 68 percent confidence. As Alan Kaufman notes, “I wouldn’t cross a busy intersection if I had only a 65% to 70% probability of making it to the other side.”

    For high-stakes decisions, test administrators have the option of increasing their confidence interval to 90 percent or even 95 percent. Of course, higher confidence comes at a cost: it widens the range of possible IQ scores. In the example of this 11-year-old boy, if you want to be 95 percent confident of what this child’s IQ score will be at age 21, you’d have to expect a range of 20 points in either direction.

    http://www.salon.com/2013/07/07/iq_tests_hurt_kids_schools_and_dont_measure_intelligence/

    The mere fact that IQ measuring clowns use a 68% confidence interval tells me all I need to know. No scientific paper
    would get away with using such a useless interval. The only acceptable confidence intervals are 90% and higher. The
    higher the better. And as we see, the BS IQ test becomes progressively useless as one tries to apply tighter statistical
    constraints. One could take this as a proof of the uselessness of this test.

    British Expert Names Two Biggest Obstacles for Western Propaganda in Russia

    A new article by a Chatham House think tank fellow offers up two obstacles for the Western media in Russia and one pundit finds a solution.


    http://sputniknews.com/analysis/20150805/1025436018.html

    An article published in think tank Chatham House's The World Today magazine claims that the Western media needs "to come up with new ideas" to win what it calls "information warfare" with Russia.

    According to the author, Keir Giles, the biggest obstacles to that are InoSMI ("Foreign Media"), a website which offers translations of foreign media articles and the Federal Security Service's SORM system, which can track Internet activity under a court order.

    When it comes to SORM, the author does not make it clear what obstacle the system creates for viewing foreign media, although he says that it is not as well-known, in his own words, "unlike similar systems in the West." Giles' article was republished by the Moscow Times daily, which is distributed in paper form free of charge in Russia.

    In the case of InoSMI (a part of Rossiya Segodnya media group together with Sputnik), Giles' argument has some merit. Without being submerged in an overall Western media narrative, individual articles may appear nonsensical to readers to the point of being amusing, such as a recently translated listicle titled "5 Reasons Why the U.S. Remains the World’s Only Superpower," which includes having the world's tallest rollercoaster.

    Others, including opinion and analytical articles, which can make sense to readers when they are subjected to a certain media narrative, can similarly become nonsensical or even aggravating. Aimed at a domestic audience, they are essentially part of a view of reality in which some claims are treated as fact while certain facts that do not fit the picture are ignored.

    When US Ambassador to Russia Will Stevens tweeted Giles' article, his audience was left confused about his motivations, asking questions about Edward Snowden.

    Quality of translation also does not seem to be an issue, as even materials originally in Russian from government broadcaster sources such as Radio Liberty (RFE/RL), Voice of America, Deutsche Welle and others are published.

    So a solution has to be found as to how to make people in Russia watch Western media, according to Giles.

    A former producer at the Gazprom Media-owned entertainment channel TNT and now a sort of crusader against Russian state media outlets, Peter Pomerantsev suggested covering more local news and creating "docu-soaps about schools or hospitals; reality shows exploring ethnic tensions."

    It is not clear who would be interested in such programming in Russia, and Pomerantsev, who worked at TNT for ten years likely knows that even topics such as corruption, political favoritism and abuse of power are not taboo in Russian entertainment. It could, however, land Pomerantsev a pretty sweet gig as a senior producer if he pushes through the idea, considering that he is one of the few vocal supporters of the idea to have such a level of experience.

    But even if you could make Russian viewers absorb the Western media narrative, would you really want them to? Pomerantsev brings up the case of "Estonia, where viewers who followed rival Russian and western stories about the downing of flight MH17 over Ukraine last year ended up disbelieving both sides."

    And what would happen if Russians were exposed to Western media? While outlets such as Voice of America and BBC Russian Service were extremely popular in the Soviet Union because they put a twist on events in a society controlled by censorship and taboo, today they simply provide an alternative editorial position only interesting to a niche audience. If interest groups and governments want to influence Russian public opinion with media distribution, they should begin by making their goals transparent, at least to themselves.

    "State media" like the BBC(*) and CBC(*) but vastly more objective. The CBC in Canada is brazen Harperite pro-Kiev regime propaganda.
    If you watch so-called "state media" in Russia there is no goose stepping conformity and no "narrative" being shoved down your
    throat. I see posts in various fora routinely claim that Russian media is no better than the NATO media. This is utter rubbish based
    on total lack of knowledge of the coverage.

    The tone of this Sputnik article is the same liberast pro-NATO crud you could find previously in RIAN. It highlights an important
    fact: Russian media is infiltrated heavily with a pro-NATO 5th column. Routinely these articles use the standard NATO newspeak
    yapping about "pro-Kremlin" political parties and "state-run media". Pavolvian trigger phrases designed to lubricate the penetration
    of the NATO narratives about Russia as some "tyranny". The real tyranny is the NATO empire of the USA. The NATO media
    coverage of events in Ukraine totally discredits it as any sort of objective and fair collection of independent organizations. It
    is nothing more than a parrot chorus for the imperial elites running NATO. Daily slaughter of civilians by the NATO installed
    coup regime in Kiev is converted 1984 style into "the rebels/terrorists are shelling themselves". Thousands of volunteers from
    Russia are claimed as regular Russian army invasion forces. Of course the question of why Russia would not use its air power
    and even properly equip these "land forces" is never answered. As if Russia could not deploy more than 9000 troops to Ukraine.

    (*) Neither is private and just because they claim to be arm's length operations from the government means diddley squat.
    The proof is in the pudding and the bias of the BBC and CBC is brazen and primitive.

    There is. Every time there's some news item that they have to push, every single channel pushes it like crazy. Like every Ukraine tidbit, or Hiroshima&Nagasaki yesterday.
    News in Russia is like tv anywhere, it's utter shit. It was decent a long time ago, and now it's just shit. The newspapers have also gotten worse. Anybody with an ounce of self-respect goes online anyway so it doesn't really matter.

    So basically the "obstacles" are that Evil Putin censors out all kinds of Enlightenment and Liberty from the Free West and so Free West cannot persuade Russian to rebels for DemoCrazy and FreeDoom like the West lol1 lol1 lol1 lol1

    i think this video is absolutely great, you can compare the brilliant central europe and balkans metaphore for European distorted view of the balkans in the 90s, to todays view of EU political elite (not soo much the majority of the population) of Russia.

    its just soo simple in the minds of spin doctors

    Do not think the people in Europe is as indoctrinated. Many politicians and many media workers are just as nuts as it seems, since they have benefits and even are payed for it (media workers), but the citizens in many countries think not the same. The people in overall terms want not a war, and dislike people like Netanyahu, Bush, Poroshenko, Shakasvili... The people will not follow them in their efforts for war.

    Yeah, and everything closes the circle. So Al Douri, makes buddy buddy with people who wanted him dead and buried (MusBro), then accepts money from the guys (Saudis) that hung him and the other mustache guy (literally) to dry back in the 90's and the 00's. So finally the tautological gap is done for. Invading Iraq is justified after you've invaded them twice, and toppled their political system once. Did i addressed the Kurdish problem, you know the guys who get to fight the durka durka rasulil allah guys while being bombed by Turkey and the US through NATO approval.

    Nope my friend, I follow the cash, if the cash comes from your Allies (or weapons from NATO members), you own your pet. BTW Shahada morons aren't only ISIS, they're all Shahada bearing cunts. That's the greatness of this, like in Afshitistain you had to pull the Izb U Jihad card, like in Afshitistain you had to bundle up the scrape of the region's kettle and then some. It's all yaaars maiiite. It's like 9/11 never happened. Well gotta be some wording when the next "defining moment in US history comes to knock" otherwise I'll be "disappoint".

    Oh as for the "Russian Problem" in Southwestern Ukraine, you should take a page from your own manual, remember Kosovo. Ukraine gonna get Serbed. Never open a pandora box baby.


    It's called INAT

    About more propaganda, the BBC news was on at work last night and they had a piece on the fragments of a BUK missile being found by the investigators.

    Naturally, not a word about ukraine possessing BUKS, or the possibility that rebels could have stolen one. No, they only mentioned that the missile was of 'russian origin'.

    Fucking bastards.

    Makes me sick to be able to see from the other side and have the whole lying and distorting charade of our media ripped open and seen for what it really is.

    Fucking bastards.

    Makes me sick to be able to see from the other side and have the whole lying and distorting charade of our media ripped open and seen for what it really is.

    Same shit here in Dutchyland. For the record, I think it was the separatists who shot down the airliner and don't care so much where the Buk came from (it's the guy who pushed the button who is responsible after all), but I find it very unbecoming of the media and unprofessional to boot that all these insinuations are flying around without proper evidence to back it up yet. Zum kotzen.

    When the USA butchers several hundred people as "collateral damage" during its drone raids into Middle Eastern and South Asian countries
    the NATO collective just waves its hand and says "shit happens". But when the NATO puppet Kiev regime direct air traffic over a war zone
    and one of them is shot down, NATO cries rivers of tears of indignation.

    Even if the rebels shot it down, it is obvious they were not hunting for civilian aircraft to shoot down. So there is nothing more to
    talk about. All these NATO calls for international tribunals and "serving justice by punishing the guilty" are grotesque, obscene and
    infinitely fraudulent.

    What sort of rebel force could capture a system like BUK and actually use it in combat effectively?

    Standard operational procedure with night vision devices is to put a bullet in their objective lens if capture appeared imminent... with a BUK air defence system then disabling it would be much much easier... any BUKs the rebels had would not be functional.

    The only functional BUKs in the region were operated by Kiev at the time of the shoot down and within range to actually hit the airliner.

    Let us say that it should have been as easy for the Tanks and APC's captured by the initial insurgency, yet it happened. Ukraine is swiss cheese when it comes to these things. But that doesn't mean anything actually, capturing any equipment, doesn't explain the hit on MH17, so like you, I'm expecting to disprove that point.
