Perils of Polling - Polls have long been the gold standard for assessing politicians, elections and voter concerns. They haven’t been shining lately. Almost every poll missed the true voter support for Donald Trump, the Republican candidate who won the U.S. presidency. This followed failures to predict the clear victory of the “leave” camp in the U.K. referendum on whether to stay in the European Union and the rejection of the Colombian peace deal with rebels. In 2015, polls were wrong on outcomes in Israel, the U.K. and Greece; in 2014 predictions were far off the mark in the Scottish independence referendum and the U.S. congressional elections. These bungles have undermined the industry’s claim to scientific rigor and cast doubts on its methodology, including its handling of the switch away from landline phones. Can poll crafters devise a new formula that delivers more accurate results in this no-time-to-spare mobile era?
?????The Quantified Self: Data Gone Wild? Take a look at these new technologies that allow people to keep track and quantify every detail of their daily lives. It's a growing movement called “quantified self.” The personal data gathered is often health-related, but there are applications to measure productivity and time spent in REM sleep. Is this data gone wild? Mr. Nelson believes its just the beginning of a generational shift in the use of BIG DATA.
"Quantified Self" Presentation On Weight Loss Strategies Matthew Ames is a communications manager for a multinational bank and a member of the "Quantified Self" movement. At the end of 2012, he had a problem: he was about 50 pounds overweight. To reach his weight loss goals, Ames credits using apps and devices--like Weight Watchers and a wi-fi scale--to track his diet, behavior, and exercise regimen.

Sixty Minutes: Prosecuting Wall Street: Two whistleblowers offer a rare window into the root causes of the subprime mortgage meltdown. Eileen Foster, a former senior executive at Countrywide Financial, and Richard Bowen, a former vice president at Citigroup, tell Steve Kroft the companies ignored their repeated warnings about defective, even fraudulent mortgages. The result, experts say, was a cascading wave of mortgage defaults for which virtually no high-ranking Wall Street executives have been prosecuted.
