2. Did you stay on track with your New Year's resolution? It's the second week of January so you're probably doing a good job at staying focused. In case you're failing like I am, I found a great post by Dishes and Dust Bunnies: How to Achieve Your New Year's Resolution – for real this time!
3. Ahhh organization! I need all the organizational skills I can get my hands on. My closets are in dire need of organizing and purging! I'm glad I found a post by Mami's Time Out about getting organized!
4. Sometimes in life you just have to stop and realize what's around you. Start taking care of YOU and what is important. Let's start with wishing. Check out Unknown Mami's Wednesday Wishes post.
5. If you're a mom, then I don't have to tell you that parenting is HARD work! There's no manual out there to get you ready for the real deal – no matter how many parenting books are out for sale. Trust me! I'm a mom of 3 and I can tell you that you just have to do your own thing and see what works with your own children! Simple as that. I love Scary Mommy and her newest post of the week about parenting & forgetting.
I will have to visit some of these. Thanks for the list.

HomeSuccess StoriesSCORE Helps Nonprofit Pivot Amid Pandemic
Integrate for Good
: Bev Weinberg
Location: Creamery, PA
integrateforgood.org/
During her 25 years as an occupational therapist Bev Weinberg noticed "a lot of untapped talent" in many of the students with disabilities with whom she worked. Seeing beyond their disabilities, Weinberg was disheartened to see young people "graduate to the sofa," instead of furthering their education, contributing to the economy, or giving back.
"I saw a need to bridge that gap," Weinberg said.
In 2017, she began planting the seeds of change. By 2019, her full-fledged nonprofit organization, Integrate for Good was incorporated and she began serving roughly 3,500 people per year in the Montgomery, Bucks, Philadelphia, Chester and Delaware counties. Tapping into her passion for helping individuals who are often recipients of assistance assume leadership roles, Weinberg, through Integrate for Good, creates volunteer opportunities for people of all abilities to give back.
She met SCORE Bucks County certified mentor Bill Grant at a workshop in December 2019 and began mentoring with him. A few months later, as COVID changed the fundraising landscape in early 2020, Grant's insight was integral in helping Weinberg pivot her organization.
"We were a year old when COVID hit," Weinberg said. "We didn't have a brick-and-mortar organization. Everything we do is in the community. COVID shut all that down. Now how do we do what we do?"
With Grant's help – and connections – Weinberg was able to keep moving forward. Grant shared his extensive network of nonprofit contacts and business owners with her and helped transition the fundraising initiatives to a virtual format. As the only staff person for the organization, Weinberg wears many hats. Maneuvering through day-to-day tasks on top of last year's changes stemming from COVID was made easier with Grant's help. He made sure to keep her informed about impending deadlines and new initiatives.
"Our SCORE mentor Bill Grant really had been instrumental in keeping our head up and navigating," she said. "He was also really good at listening and being a sounding board."
Grant lauded Weinberg for "organically" creating the nonprofit and continuing to grow her following through a strong board of directors, events and transitioning as needed during the pandemic.
Integrate for Good has since moved to a hybrid model, blending virtual events with traditional in-person initiatives, such as the organization's recent gala. Integrate for Good also provides team-building events for companies that are led by people with disabilities. Weinberg collaborates with volunteers, her board and college interns to keep going.
The importance of collaboration was the biggest lesson she learned from her SCORE mentor.
"There's no way one person would be able to do that without strong community partnership," Weinberg said. "We don't operate in a silo. Take advantage of resources that are out there."
Weinberg lists SCORE's free webinars and mentoring at the top of the list for other nonprofits and entrepreneurs.
"Surround yourself with good resources and good mentorship," she said. "That all comes from SCORE. It's like hitting the jackpot."
Integrate for Good welcomes volunteers of all abilities. If interested in volunteering or donating to the nonprofit, email howcanwehelp@integrateforgood.org or fill out the contact form on the website.

How Frito-Lay Levels The Playing Field Between TV, Digital And Offline For NFL Promos
by Kelly Liyakasa // Friday, November 6th, 2015 – 1:20 pm
Frito-Lay, the $14 billion chip-and-dip division of PepsiCo, wants to engineer 360-degree marketing programs.
Ram Krishnan, CMO of Frito-Lay North America, recently outlined a 70-20-10 plan, which will enable it to do so. The brand will allocate 70% of its resources to proven methodologies, 20% to partners who prove value (Krishnan called it "validated risk") and 10% toward experimenting with transformational ideas.
"We get excited about newer platforms like Snapchat and Periscope, but we look at that as part of the 10%," Dana Lawrence, senior director of North America marketing for Frito-Lay, told AdExchanger.
"That 10% allows you to test and experiment, but the bulk of your budget remains invested in the platforms you know will deliver the ROI you're tasked with."
As exclusive chip and dip sponsor for the NFL, Frito-Lay brand Tostitos kicked off a season-long "Party Like A Pro" promo earlier this fall, blending traditional investments in TV with codes on packages in-store and digital redemption of prizes.
"This is really where you start to see the melding of mediums," Lawrence said. Frito-Lay packaging promotes the opportunity to win NFL tickets, which ties into its NFL TV advertisements.
"On the same note, if you've bought into the program, you're getting emails about it and you can bid on tickets or NFL experiences via Twitter," Lawrence added. "We're not looking at this as digital or traditional because digital is fully integrated into the promo."
Lawrence spoke with AdExchanger about merging digital to offline touch points and supporting campaign efforts with Frito-Lay's internal media analytics.
AdExchanger: In certain instances, you've removed traditional marketing aspects altogether. Can you elaborate?
DANA LAWRENCE: Ruffles is a brand which consumers think of [as a brand consumed by families on picnics]. When we look at the actual numbers, more growth is coming in from millennials.
And our core consumer target is that 23-year old millennial guy. Digital marketing lets us be much more specific in our content [delivery]. In certain cases, TV provides that broad reach that works from an effectiveness standpoint, but for Ruffles we shifted our focus entirely to digital marketing because of the strategy.
Who helps you make decisions around brand media allocations?
My team and agencies have come up with fun ideas to leverage Snapchat or Periscope, but we have way more ideas than media dollars. We have a media analytics team and we are measured by what efficiency and effectiveness we are driving with our media plan.
We have certain targets and goals, and it's really a balancing act between leveraging new technologies to reach your consumer in a fun, new way but with effectiveness and efficiency. We are doing more tests with some of these emerging media channels like Instagram and Snapchat, but they haven't been as easy to measure. We're investing more heavily in the platforms we know deliver for us and understanding ROI around platforms like Facebook and Twitter.
Where are overall budgets shifting?
For my brands within the [Frito-Lay] portfolio, we plan to increase year over year our digital spend. As the channels continue to be build out, we gain more ability to measure it and understand meaningful ROI. We still have a significant investment in TV but what you're seeing is less investment in other traditional media channels [like] radio, out of home, print. We're focusing more of our media on TV and digital.
Frito-Lay did an experiential campaign with the NFL during the last Super Bowl. How do you connect experiential to data-driven marketing?
We thought about what would be a relevant and engaging way for Tostitos to be part of the Super Bowl, so we came up with this idea for a Tostitos Party Boulevard. We took over two blocks in Phoenix and turned it into a giant spectacle with two-story high dunk tanks (and the like). The reality is a lot of football fans will not go to the Super Bowl, [so] digital became a huge extension of that localized campaign.
When people checked in to play these games on Party Boulevard, we gave them an RFID bracelet. Not only did it track their scores among games, it was also linked to videos and pictures of them falling in the dunk tank, and that was shared virally. It was important for us to embed that digital element to it and created an online hub via Twitter that featured the Tostitos #PARTYBLVD or other hashtags to capture the experiential element. There was this ongoing tracking of fans' experiences nationwide and it drove a ton of organic reach.

You may be an occasional gamer, breaking out the Nintendo Switch or Xbox controller when you need to give your brain a break from academia. Maybe you're a phone gamer, tapping away like the Fruit Ninja you are whenever your excitement levels dip. If you are like 44% of the world's population, you are a gamer who takes their game time seriously, making time to play games like Fallout, Rust, and Angry Birds a few times a week.
For those uninitiated with simulation and role-playing games, it may seem like online games are just another iteration of platform games like Super Mario Bros. and Zelda. Quite the contrary, modern online gaming goes well beyond the Konami code. Developers are delivering incredibly detailed and intricate worlds which challenge gamers to use a whole lot of brain power to solve complex problems inside of fully-designed worlds, often complete with players from all around the world interacting virtually with one another.
As game developers build increasingly multifaceted and interactive worlds, gamers are tasked to tackle ostensibly solvable problems that require them to make measured, tested, and learning-based decisions either alone or with a team effort. Games like Fallout have made a big impact in gaming communities because they are not only games that are set in realistic, interactive, and grand worlds, but they are games who have a very simple objective: to survive.
Because of the engrossing style of game play and the nature of the games themselves – allowing gamers to choose one of many paths in a 'choose your own adventure' type of play – gamers are spending more time than ever before playing their created roles in these worlds. An average gamer spends 6.5 hours a week playing video games of one sort or another, from app games like Crashlands to the world conquering World of Warcraft. Millions of survival game players, whether working in tandem with a team or gaming solo, dedicate more than 20 hours a week to play per person.
As game developer and gaming researcher Jane McGonigal noted in her World Innovation Forum and TEDTalk about gamers' untapped abilities, gamers are out-of-the-box problem solvers. Why? Because, as she puts it, players spend about 80 percent of their time failing while playing video games. Curiously, whereas constant failure would make one quit their task in other aspects of life, gamers are pleased with their failures. The more they fail, the harder they try to correct their failures and succeed at the task at hand.
Game developers like McGonigal see the potential for greatness in gamers. With all those improved skills and a desire to use creative thinking to solve (virtually) serious problems, gamers may be the greatest asset humanity never saw coming.
Imagine all that collective manpower, out-of-the-box thinking, and desire to succeed at overcoming extreme virtual obstacles working together to solve genuine issues that plague our real world today.
Could gamers be the key to unlocking solutions to 21st-century global issues? Let's talk about it in Part Two of this blog!

Your safety and security is the highest priority at Canberra Airport.
Accordingly, a number of security measures have been implemented in line with aviation security directives from the Australian Federal Government before a passenger or visitor may enter the secure area of the airport terminal or board a flight.
When checking in, airline staff will query whether you have any hazardous items in your check-in or cabin baggage. Flammable goods, gas cylinders, acids and poisons are all considered hazardous and will not be allowed on the aircraft. These may include items such as lithium batteries, bleaches, paints and some aerosol containers. For more information on restrictions applicable to dangerous goods visit www.casa.gov.au.
Once checked in, your carry-on and checked baggage will also be subject to security screening requirements.
Before accessing the sterile area or departures councourse, you will be subject to a security screening process. This is to check for items that are not permitted to be carried on the aircraft, either on your person or in cabin baggage.
All items that you take into the sterile area must be x-ray screened. This includes carry-on bags, wallets and any items in your pockets.
Persons and items will be selected on a random basis to undergo explosive trace sampling.
All cutting implements (such as knives, scissors, etc.) and sharp objects (metal cutlery, letter openers, razor blades etc.) are prohibited items in the aircraft cabin. These items may be carried in your checked-in baggage and stored in the aircraft hold.
Beverage containers of any description (empty or otherwise) are not to be carried through the walkthrough metal detector for the purpose of screening and clearing. Only sealed containers (flask, thermos etc) may be submitted for x-ray screening. A beverage such as a coffee cup with lid does not constitute a sealed container as the liquid may cause damage to the x-ray apparatus.
For more information on what you can take through domestic security screening visit the TravelSECURE website.
For information on travelling with children, including carry-on baby products, please see the TravelSECURE website.
When you fly internationally from Canberra Airport, you will need to complete the Domestic Passenger Screening process above as well as the International Passenger Screening.
To protect against the threat of liquid explosives, there are rules for taking liquids, aerosols and gels (LAGs) on flights in and out of Australia.
LAGs are classified as any liquid, gel, cream, paste or substance in an aerosol container. This includes water, drinks, toiletries, perfumes, cosmetics and food items that contain high volumes of liquids (soups, yoghurts, etc). It also applies to jam, honey and preserves.
Can I take liquids, aerosols or gels through security if I am travelling overseas?
Yes, but only if they fit within the current requirements.
All liquids, aerosols and gels that you intend to take in your carry-on baggage must be in containers 100ml in volume or smaller (this is about equal to 100g in weight). They must be carried in a transparent, re-sealable, airtight bag no more than 80 centimetres (e.g. 20×20 cm or 15x25cm).
Containers which exceed the LAGS restrictions, even if partially filled, will not be permitted through the screening point.
LAG items are to be presented separately for screening and restricted to one bag per passenger, with exceptions for carers. Please place your airtight bag in a tray for screening. An item detected which contravenes the Australian Federal Government laws cannot be taken on-board an aircraft and will be surrendered at the screening point.
For information on liquid, aerosol or gel items for babies or infants on international flights please see the TravelSECURE website.
From 30 June 2018, people travelling internationally will notice some changes to how they are screened at the international screening point. Passengers will be required to present all powders in their carry-on baggage separately for screening, and inorganic powders will be restricted to volumes less than 350ml per passenger in the aircraft cabin on departing flights.
Inorganic powders include things such as sand, salt, talcum powder and some types of make-up. You cannot tip powders out to fall under the 350ml/gm threshold as the restriction is calculated on total container volume.
There is no quantity restriction for organic powders such as food products, therapeutic and medical products (travelling with a medical certificate is suggested), powdered baby formula, coffee and sugar.
Domestic rules on powders have not changed, and international travellers will not need to unpack powders at the domestic screening point.
For more information about duty-free purchases, handling powders at international screening points, powders in checked baggage, or further information about different types of powders and the rules that now apply to international travellers, please check the TravelSECURE website before you travel.
Passengers departing the country may be randomly selected to undergo body scanner screening. Body scanners provide an additional layer of security detection with the equipment capable of detecting non-metallic prohibited items worn or carried on one's body.
The scanners use unobtrusive millimeter wave technology which emit low power levels and meets the health regulations in relation to licencing compliance. As such, internal medical devices including pacemakers and metal implants or women pregnant will not be adversely affected.
Persons with a medical or physical condition that may prevent them from being screened by a body scanner will need to advise the screening officer. This will require the use of secondary screening processes.
Privacy concerns have been diminished as the image displayed on the body scanner is a generic human profile with a general indicator of a detected item. A screening officer will apply the use of other screening techniques, including a targeted frisk search to clear an alarm.
Refusal to be screened will mean you will not be permitted to pass through the security screening check-point or board your flight for 24 hours.
Do not leave your baggage unattended at any time. Unattended baggage presents a security risk and may be disposed of by security personnel. Such incidents can cause disruption to airport operations which may also cause aircraft delays until the matter is resolved.
A number of security personnel from various agencies, are deployed around the airport to monitor operations. Some may be identifiable by uniform, some may not. You may also see detector dogs in operation around the airport.
Please remain respectful of other passengers, airport and airline staff. Refrain from making inappropriate remarks, including hoax bomb threats, threatening passengers or crew or taking replica weapons on board a screened air service. All are considered as criminal offences and will be dealt by law enforcement officers located at the airport.
Canberra Airport has an extensive closed circuit television (CCTV) system in operation, both within the terminal and car parks as well as surrounding outdoor areas. Your movements may be recorded for security purposes.
Like unattended baggage, idle vehicles within close proximity to the terminal represent a potential security threat.
Vehicles dropping off passengers at the terminal are not usually idle and may be permitted to drop off passengers on the kerbside area, provided the vehicle does not 'stand'. NOTE: any vehicle deemed to be idle may be moved on by security personnel.
Private vehicles are not permitted to pick up passengers at the road kerb immediately outside the terminal. Vehicles may not park or 'stand' for extended periods while awaiting arriving passengers, or while carrying out any other function.
Please use our Express Pick-up or 10 Minute Free Pick-up when you are collecting passengers.
Passengers with impaired mobility or the elderly may need immediate access to the kerbside areas for pick-up. This must be pre-arranged by contacting the airport in advance. Please refer to our special assistance page here.

Vel on stage in Japan
Japan is a leader in the deployment of commercial 5G networks, but the question for the country's leaders, is how best to use such technologies to benefit its companies and individuals over the coming decades. HolyWally co-founder Veljko Vasic, who's also the founder and CEO of venture builder Creitive, was invited to the Digital Transformation Leaders' CxO Summit in Tokyo to share his views about the Zero to One approach.
I've been on the road a lot recently, finishing 2022 off with a trip to Money 20/20 in the US, then to Web Summit in Portugal and now here in Japan.
I was invited to this prestigious event, organised by the GSMA, to talk about startups, venture capitalists, accelerators and service diversification.
I wear two hats. I am co-founder of HolyWally, the world's the world's first B2B2C wallet-as-a-service platform, but I'm also founder and CEO of Creitive Ventures. Having these two roles is great for me, as I am both a founder which all the challenges that that brings, but also a VC myself, helping startups in Europe, the United Arab Emirates and Portugal. So, I get to see the issues from both ends.
One thing I can say with certainly, that having been in the tech heartlands of the US, Portugal and Tokyo, the spirit of the startup is undimmed by the recent economic problems being seen around the world.
Down rounds
There is much talk of lay-offs, down rounds and an uncertain future. But, along with most of the people I have met on my travels, I remain very optimistic about the future of tech and how it effects the everyday lives of people around the globe.
Also, interestingly, the startup scene at the seed level remains strong, in recognition that we still need innovative thinking to build products and services that maximise such technological leaps as 5G. The demand for these has not slowed.
I have to applaud for Japan for adopting what I say is the right way to go about tech. They start by asking the question, what can such technologies as 5G do for our companies and people. In short, what benefits does the latest tech bring to the country.
It's the right way to look at tech — what problems do we have currently and how will tech help to solve those? This is not a question of tech for the sake of tech. And also, that national and local government, and industry, need to drive change — they cannot sit back and allow it to happen by accident.
Hyperscalers
Japan also understands that it is also a partnership, one that needs nurturing from the seed of an idea, onwards to a company that has the ability to make a difference. They see it as a virtuous collaboration between mobile network operators (MNOs), cloud providers, hyperscalers, venture capitalists, ecosystem players and innovative SMEs/startups. All play a part in ensuring the creation of a scalable digital ecosystem.
The conference highlighted the fact that many MNOs have their own CVCs and accelerator programmes. These identify, invest in, or partner with innovative SMEs and startups to create new revenue opportunities, and reinforce existing ones by facilitating digital transformation across sectors.
Our particular part of the conference included four presentations. The first one, a look at early-stage venture building, a zero to one approach, was given by me.
We then enjoyed a lively panel discussion, which included by co-presenters: Jongkap Kim, Chief Executive Director, Born2Global Center; Takahisa Ohira, Head of Asia, Deloitte Tomatsu Venture Support; and, Andy Zain, Managing Partner, Kejora Capital.

agadir press : Polisario / El Guerguerat: To drown the fish, Algeria sends loaded planes to Mauritania
As if to drown the fish, and hide the horrors perpetrated by its separatist militias, the Algerian regime, the historic support of the Sahrawi separatists of the Polisario, sent on Saturday, November 7, planes loaded with fruits and vegetables in the direction of Mauritania, at the time when militias Pirates of the Polisario are blocking the road to Moroccan trucks, a close source told Hespress FR who requested anonymity.
"They (Algeria, editor's note) send planes (loaded) with fruit and vegetables to Nouakchott," says our source. Meanwhile, hundreds of Moroccan trucks "remain stuck and vandalized by these thugs in El Aouche", on the border on the Mauritanian side.
For several days, pirate Polisario militias have been blocking hundreds of trucks transporting fresh Moroccan produce to West Africa at the El Guerguerat border post on the Mauritanian side.
While several West African countries depend on deliveries of fresh produce from Morocco, "Mauritanians are starting to get annoyed because they are fed up with this situation. The Malians are also fed up, "explains this well-informed source, with reference to the authorities of these countries, to economic actors and to the populations.
Two weeks ago there were more than 1,500 trucks stranded, unable to reach Morocco, and even today at least 200 trucks remain stranded by separatist groups who have set up roadblocks made of tires and stones. Flags of the self-proclaimed rasd republic were erected on the road.
In a new manifestation of hostility and violation of the ceasefire, the Polisario militiamen stop traffic, and attack the trucks of goods by emptying the trailers and the loads of trucks and putting the fresh products on the ground so that they rot.
As a result, tons of food products destined for West African markets and populations are wasted and thrown away, or even stolen by the Polisario militias.
This situation benefits Algeria, which is pulling the strings of this plan according to our source, which asserts that while the separatist militias prevented the passage of Moroccan trucks, the Algerian authorities opened the border of Tindouf (where the separatist camps are set up). and Moroccan captives, editor's note) to "sell adulterated products and goods and steal the commercial flow that there is in Morocco".
While the Mauritanians began to stomp their feet Thursday in the face of this situation, the Algerians on Saturday sent planes, the number of which could not yet be verified, to Mauritania to "be forgiven by the Mauritanians and sabotage the reputation of the Moroccans" .
As a reminder, Morocco, the Polisario, Algeria and Mauritania are the four parties to the Sahara conflict. While Algeria has always denied its involvement in the conflict, it is the only country in the region to defend separatists at all levels and rejecting a political solution based on compromise.
In its last resolution dated October 30 and extending the mandate of MINURSO, the UN observation mission, the Security Council cited Algeria along with the Polisario and the other parties to the conflict.
Since the extension of the mandate of the United Nations observation mission, the Sahrawi separatists of the Polisario, financially, militarily, politically and diplomatically supported by Algeria, have resumed hostilities, in particular by seeking to harm trade between Morocco and Mauritania , and by having Algeria imposed as the alternative.
Meanwhile, hundreds of Moroccan economic players, like fruit and vegetable producers and transporters, find themselves in a situation of economic crisis.

Laos, 1979: Dr. Siri Paiboun, the twice-retired ex-National Coroner of Laos, receives an unmarked package in the mail. Inside, is a hand-woven pha sin—a colorful traditional skirt worn by women in certain northern Lao tribes. A lovely present, but who sent it to him, and why? More importantly—and alarmingly—why is there a severed human finger stitched into the sin's lining?
Gallows humor aside, Siri's curiosity is now piqued. He's convinced someone is trying to send him a message—or perhaps a warning?—and refuses to let the matter rest until he's figured out the meaning of it all.
"Luang Nam Tha?" said Siri.
Easier said than done. This is a time of war with rising tensions in the region between China and Vietnam, and travelling is precarious at the best of times for most people. However, the unconventional Dr. Siri Paiboun is not most people. He is in the know, and knows how to manipulate that know when time dictates. His unconventional methods also include the occasional use of blackmail—but only if absolutely necessary— to get his way, and throwing live hand grenades at certain targets when he is irked.
Too long a journey to embark upon on his beloved and trusty Triumph motorcycle, he decides the only mode of transport will have to be via airplane, despite the fact that the only aircraft in the country belong to the military and state. Before long, his reputation has secured transport for Madame Daeng and himself. And as they take flight in search of answers, little do they realize that very soon they will be flying into a storm of deadly danger.
Other characters from the series make an appearance in the story, chief of whom is the omnipresent Inspector Phosy. He has been sent to the same area to investigate a double murder and finds himself having to confront some villainous characters.
Six and a Half Deadly Sins is the tenth book in the popular Siri Paiboun series. It is a terrifically entertaining ride with great atmosphere, zany and original characters. The exotic scenery, smells, and location are so authentic you will genuinely believe you are in the heart of Laos with the good doctor and his cohorts. If this is your first Paiboun book, don't be in the least surprised if you go searching for the rest in the series.

When James Naismith invented the game in 1891, it was played in two 15-minute halves with a five-minute break in between.
After a few years, it evolved into what is standard today in men's college basketball — two 20-minute halves.
(The women's college game went to four quarters of 10 minutes a few years ago.).
12 minutesIn a one-time preseason experiment, the game will be played using four 11-minute quarters, according to an NBA news release. Currently, each quarter is 12 minutes long, (48 minutes total), which is played out on average over 2 hours 15 minutes, including pauses, timeouts and other breaks in play.
Spalding has created the official game ball for the WNBA since the league's first-ever tip-off in 1997. This game-ready basketball has the same multicolor design as the one wielded by legends. Strictly made for the hardwood, its durable composite leather cover is game-ready out of the box.
around 2 1/2 hoursThe duration of the game itself is 48 minutes (four 12-minute periods) plus a 15-minute halftime. But since the game clock stops frequently in basketball, games run an average of around 2 1/2 hours, unless they go into overtime.
five playersDunking in women's play Sylvia Fowles is one of five players to dunk during a WNBA game.
The NCAA Women's Basketball Rules Committee, which initially recommended the rule change, believes the four-quarter format will enhance the flow of the game. The change also was endorsed by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association Board of Directors.
James Naismith published his original rules for "Basket Ball." The 12th of Naismith's rules states, "The time shall be two fifteen-minute halves, with five minutes rest between." So that's it: College basketball plays in halves because that's how the game was originally intended to be played."
1954In 1954 college basketball went back to playing in halves while the NBA stayed with the quarter system.
Since 1946, games in the Association have lasted 48 minutes, but because of growing concern that the NBA season is too much of a grind, the Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets will suit up for a preseason tilt with four 11-minute quarters, according to Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today.
BALL SIZE: The circumference of the WNBA ball is 281/2 inches, the same size as the ball used in women's college basketball. The NBA ball is 295/8 to 297/8 inches in circumference. DURATION OF GAME: WNBA games, like college, include two 20-minute halves.
NCAA women's basketball games will be played in four 10-minute quarters next season. The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel approved moving the game to the new format and away from the 20-minute halves the sport has always used in NCAA competition on a conference call today.
Currently, it is estimated the WNBA has about $60 million in revenue with about $12 million of this going to the players. To give the WNBA players 50 percent of league revenue would require league payrolls to increase by $18 million.
four quartersQuarters. The calendar year can be divided into four quarters, often abbreviated as Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4. In Gregorian calendar: First quarter, Q1: 1 January – 31 March (90 days or 91 days in leap years)
The N.B.A., which created the W.N.B.A. in 1996 and shares ownership with the women's teams, splits its revenue about 50-50 with the men's players. In the W.N.B.A., the players are estimated to receive just 20 to 30 percent of league revenue.
DeWanna BonnerThe highest earner in the WNBA, DeWanna Bonner, received 127.5 thousand U.S. dollars for her performances for Phoenix Mercury.
Original rulesThe ball may be thrown in any direction with one or both hands.The ball may be batted in any direction with one or both hands.A player cannot run with the ball. … The ball must be held in or between the hands; the arms or body must not be used for holding it.More items…
When we shoot or dribble a basketball, we shoot/dribble it no matter how the stripes comes into contact with our hands. The stripes are the seams where the panels meet. I like to hold the ball a specific way when shooting free throws or in a Tripoli threat position because it makes my shot feel more consistent.
Games are to be played in four 10-minute quarters. Previously it was two 20-minute halves. Teams can no longer waive free throws and take the ball at midcourt.
Most high school games are played with four 8-minute quarters, while NCAA, WNBA, and FIBA games are played in four 10 minute quarters. In 2015-2016 the NCAA changed the rules to 10 minute quarters from 20 minute halves.
12 minutesThey will have noted that in international league basketball games and inter-country play, the length of a quarter is only 10 mins. Whereas in the NBA it is at 12 minutes. This makes the length of a match 48 minutes in total, in contrast to 40 minutes in international play.
Kicking a basketball that's just out of arm's reach may seem like a good idea in the heat of the moment, but touching the ball with your foot has been illegal ever since James Naismath invented basketball in 1863.

Looking for a healthy Super Bowl snack? Try making Beanless Chili-Loaded Sweet Potato!
So why make a beanless chili? Beans contain phytates which inhibit nutrient absorption and cause inflammation–ever heard the term 'musical fruit'? Beans also contain lectins which can mess with healthy hormonal functions. And to top it off, beans are high in carbohydrates. Beans (also known as legumes) are promoted as a healthy food, because of their fiber, vitamins and minerals, and "high" protein content. In fact, beans aren't a dense protein source, since most contain 2-3 times as many carbs as protein. When compared to vegetables and fruits, beans are lacking in both fiber and micronutrient density.
Wash the sweet potatoes and pierce the skin in several places with a knife. Bake for 45 minutes.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium.
Add garlic, bell peppers and onion.
Cook for about 5 minutes, until tender.
Add the pork and chili powder and cook until the meat is no longer pink.
Add the rest of the spices, tomato sauce, vinegar and water.
Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered for 1 1/2 hours.
To serve: Slice open a piece of sweet potato and top with a big scoop of chili and avocado slices.
Season the avocado with lemon juice, cumin, sweet paprika and sea salt.
