 Idealist FAQ
In this situation, it is not surprising that donors and policy makers often wish for a simple way to identify the "top 40" – a list of organizations that could serve all community needs and do so in a way that is completely deserving of public trust.
Thoughtful advisors suggest that one way to deal with that uncertainty is to make up your own "top 40" ("top 5" or "top 100").
Thank you for your interest, and for supporting the important work done by your personal "top" charities, however many there are.

 Beatpaths » Blog Archive » NCAA Week 12 Top Forty Beatpath Graph
But I’ve managed to create a process to create a beatpath graph for the top forty ranked teams in NCAA Division 1-A. The system analyzes all 700+ college football teams and generates a beatpath graph of everyone (which is so laughably large that no one will ever see it).
Then I cull out all the teams that aren’t in the Top 40 and generate the graph that you see here.
Because of this, the length of the beatpaths aren’t really indicative of how good a team is… I mean, it sort of is, but not really.
