The God With Data - All the Americans I Know

I still remember, when I just studied in America, statistics began from the first semester. Do You Know These Temptation of ed hardy ? Cameron Diaz Give You the Answer The first lesson was not fresh, just about the significance of statistics. However, the professor`s quotation is still fresh in my memory.brand glasses are on the Top in the List of Most Wanted Articles in 2009

"In God we trust, everyone else must bring data. New Era Hats Boots Before Women's Day" I learned later that this sentence had its origin. The first half was quoted form the Amarican national anthem, which was the national motto, let alone being printed on American currencies. The latter comes from the American management scholar and statistician Edwards Deming, who makes weighty contributions to modern management. And he advocates that only data should be the scientific measurement. I learn it better with longer time I stay in America. God is the representation of the biggest, highest and most unreal divinity while data is the smallest, realest and truest logical unit. Not only trust in God, but also respect the data, the two seem opposite, but they blend in the U.S. mass values. It reflects the unique aspect of American society.

The United States possess more than three thousands colleges and over three hundred thousands churches. From quantity only, each college is surrounded by a hundred churches. Thus, studying in America, you cannot avoid close contacting with Christians Some religious sects even call at your houses to preach their religion, uninvited. I remember the first year I came here, in the early morning on weekends, my roommates and I were ever awakened by their knocking at the door, and we, in pajamas and rubbing our sleepy eyes, listened to two smiling young ladies introducing Bible. I have to admit that the unseen and untouchable God really applies [work": he pulls down the fences for people to guard against each other.

In the United States, I was a foreigner, an alien, "external" added with "foreign." However, from reading, traveling to working, I had never met any Americans who set me up or hurt me. On the contrary, most feelings I get is caring and tenderness from ordinary people or even strangers. Once I got lost and asked a passer-by for help. After explaining in details, he saw my puzzled looking and drove me to my destination. Still once I lost my cellphone, after twists and turns, I had it back. Like a hiden moral competition, everyone stretches to be a good guy. Why?.

According to the Polls of New York Times, 80% of American claim that they believe in God, they are doing while God is watching.No hierarchy, no race discrimination and no circles and foreigners, God is the only judge out of the circle. Apart from sharing the idea that God is the only exception, the Americans consider all the humans are fresh and blood. They have their own lusts, as well as make mistakes. Then forgiving each other must be in the lesson since all the men are ordinary. Believing in God is Americans` appeal for divinity. When they look up into the [heaven", their senses are [dormant" temporarily. But once their vision gets back to the external world, most Americans emphasize that you need to speak with data; no data, no science. Real "numbers" seeking truth, which is the consensus of American academia, the data is considered the source of knowledge, no data, research is difficult to move even one step. Americans even put forward data analysis into politics, and change this old subject into real science.

[Policy science" we often mention also stems from America, meaning the process to apply statistics, operations research, game theory and management to do analysis and deduction on policy problems on the basis of data and by seeing from the angle of details. In business world, data is always regarded as wealth. And the ability of collecting and analyzing data, as the Core Competency, is related to the profits directly. In recent years, American government has brought forth the new through the old in respecting data, using data and publicizing data, and data has become an important carrier to embody the rights of citizens.

In May, 2009, the American government first set up the data portal, www.data.gov, raising a wave of "data democracy" world-widely. The site, which publicize hundreds of thousand data materials of various department of the government,clearly encourage citizens and corporations recount, reanalyse and redevelop of the original data collected by government, so as to promote the government be more clear and open. During the first month, over one hundred thousand people went to download the data. There are certain number of them, holding their incredulity to the White House's statistical caliber, rechecked the data all by themselves.
