65. Each man selects his place as though at the theatre
66. If this procedure selects approximately 10% of combinations out of those that were chosen during two previous operations (we assume this percentage as an average estimate though in practice it can vary substantially), then the initial set is finally reduced to just 100 variants
67. where B is the number of stocks (initial set of underlying assets); K is the number of stocks for which the criterion judged a certain strategy as superior relative to all the other alternatives; P is the number of stocks for which this strategy turned out to be more profitable than the other strategies; KP is the number of stocks that belong to both sets K and P (in our examples KP is the number of matches of circles and rhombi; and in real trading a stock belongs to KP if the criterion selects a certain strategy for the stock and this strategy is confirmed to be the best one according to the realized profit)
68. Even though, at first glance, it looks like a superfluous activity, in practice it might appear that a certain criterion successfully selects stocks, for which strategy 1 is preferable to strategy 2, yet poorly accomplishes the opposite task
69. The coefficient value is high when the criterion selects the best option strategy correctly
70. Finally, consider the inverse situation when the same criterion selects combinations for which the “long calendar spread” is expected to perform better than the “short calendar spread
71. In all other cases the Pareto method can be used without any hesitation because, on the one hand, it selects the same combinations as the convolution by 90% and, on the other hand, in most cases it shows better performance than the convolution does (Figure 7
72. She seems waiting to be sought; but she will not wait too long: she herself selects a mate
73. An insurance company can in no way guarantee that the drivers it selects will not have accidents, but it certainly can help its business by selecting only drivers who have what it considers a low chance of being in an accident
74. From the Small Stocks universe, the best five strategies are buying the highest deciles of Value Composites One, Two, and Three, buying the decile of stocks with the highest EBITDA/EV, and finally the multifactor model that selects Small Stocks with price-to-book ratios in the lowest 30 percent that also have three- and six-month price appreciation higher than the median, and then buys the 25 stocks with the highest shareholder yield
75. It selects stocks from the All Stocks universe in decile 1 of Value Composite 2, and then buys the stocks with the best six-month price appreciation
76. In the case of methodical selection, a breeder selects for some definite object, and if the individuals be allowed freely to intercross, his work will completely fail
77. If the Commune, as it most generally does, selects a teacher from its own midst, a manorial servant, a soldier, or a church servant, the school is located at the house of that person, and the Commune looks only after the heating
78. Violence selects and attracts the worst elements of society, works them over, and, improving and softening them, returns them to society
79. What happens is this: the governor arrives at the place of action, makes a speech to the people, rebuking them for their disobedience, and either stations troops in the farms of the village, where the soldiers, quartering at times as much as a month at a time, ruin the peasants, or, satisfied with threatening them, graciously pardons the people and returns home, or, which happens more frequently than anything else, announces to them that the instigators ought to be punished, and arbitrarily, without trial, selects a certain number of men, who are declared to be the instigators and in his presence are subjected to tortures
80. And a man, in our times, if only he possesses such a talent and selects some specialty, may, after learning the methods of counterfeiting used in his branch of art,—if he has patience and if his æsthetic feeling (which would render such productions revolting to him) be atrophied,—unceasingly, till the end of his life, turn out works which will pass for art in our society
81. It has now become a distributer of diplomas for idleness; for it alone, in its sanctuaries, selects and determines what is parasitical, and what is organic activity, in the social organism
82. Power selects and attracts the worst elements of society, transforms them, improves and softens them, and returns them to society
83. The governor arrives on the scene of action and delivers an harangue to the people, reproaching them for their insubordination, and either stations troops in the houses of the villages, where sometimes for a whole month the soldiers drain the resources of the peasants, or contenting himself with threats, he mercifully takes leave of the people, or what is the most frequent course, he announces that the ringleaders must be punished, and quite arbitrarily without any trial selects a certain number of men, regarded as ringleaders, and commands them to be flogged in his presence
84. But, instead of this, the Secretary selects two subjects, which he must have known would be difficult to close, and tells Mr
