Occasionally, during the following month, I dropped in at 117 Wall Street to inquire how the repairing and refurnishing of the vessel was coming on, how additions to the passenger list were

The deaths were

They are a fine race of men
averaging six feet in height, lithe and active, with hawks' eyes and Roman noses.
I never saw a better,

The macroscopic equations result from a process of

We have, at the present moment, one hundred and seventy families, Miss Summerson,
averaging five persons in each, either gone or going to the left bank of the Niger."
Within a month from the taking of the first stickleback, Benjy had carried off our hero to the canal, in defiance of Charity; and between them, after a whole afternoon's popjoying, they had caught three or four small, coarse fish and a perch,

This paper presents empirical evidence on the efficacy of forecast averaging using the ALFRED (ArchivaL Federal Reserve Economic Data) real-time database.

In accordance with the literature, our results indicate that model averaging can--but does not always--improve forecast accuracy relative to the more-standard BIC-based approach to model selection.
In some, though not all, instances our decomposition meshes well with the permutations of types of models and types of averaging procedures that produce the most accurate forecasts.
