"The 'Big Brother' program is a prime example of why the Niagara encoders are such a critical component of our operations," said John Houde, network administrator for RBN Broadcast Technology Operations/Engineering. "During the live streaming, the combined up-time for all of the encoders was 99.9% and two of them experienced 100% up-time -- and the improved image meant that we were able to deliver a higher quality viewing experience for our audience. For webcasters that require extreme dependability in intense-use applications, there is simply no better choice for encoding and streaming technology than ViewCast."

Big Brother University has a very strict selection process, and normally has a maximum intake of 10 students per year. To achieve entry to this university you must have studied the arts of prostitution and coarseness or have at least a double D-cup grade from the College of LowestCommonDenominator, from which most entrants are selected. There is a rigourous interview process, in which all applicants who fail to blather on and complain about seemingly nothing are automatically disqualified. Applicants who choose to complain about very slight things, and are inclined to fall apart over nothing, are generally accepted. It ... helps if applicants dress like sluts.

National research has shown that the positive relationships between youth and their Big Brothers and Big Sisters have a direct, measurable and lasting impact on children's lives. Children are more likely to graduate from high school and less likely to be involved in violence. Big Brothers Big Sisters is the oldest, largest, and most effective youth mentoring organization in the United States. In 2006, the organization served 250,000 youths, ages 6 through 18, in 5,000 communities across the country in one-to-one relationships. Big Brothers Big Sisters particularly needs male mentors to sign on as volunteers. All it takes is a few hours a couple of times a month.

Big Brother displays status information as web pages or WML pages for WAP-enabled devices. These web pages have the systems monitored down the left hand side of the page, the tests for each system across the top of the page. This results in a matrix of color coded dots on screen. Green is Good, Red is Bad. In addition, the background color of the status pages is always the color of the most serious condition of any element being monitored at that time.

"In Orwell's seminal novel, Big Brother and the party control the past, because by doing so, they control the present and future. Enemies become allies overnight, and all evidence to the contrary is put down the memory holes in the Ministry of Truth, and new archives written to back up the current version." [2]
