NBA Basketball Betting Tips
Early-Week Waivers: NBA Basketball Betting Tips Cameron Johnson's meniscus injury, along with Jae Crowder's ongoing absence, propels Suns forward Torrey Craig (99% availability) into a key position in the coming weeks at the NBA Basketball Betting Tips.
Craig does a little bit of everything, as seen by his recent rebounding and defensive statistics. Looking at the Knicks, Mitchell Robinson is projected to miss at least a week due to a knee injury, increasing Isaiah Hartenstein's (87%) fantasy profile in terms of minutes and rebounding possibilities at the NBA Basketball Betting Tips. Hartenstein has eight blocks in his previous three games and 24 rebounds in his last two appearances. Rudy Gobert will not play for the Timberwolves on Monday owing to health and safety concerns. Kyle Anderson (96% available) will have a larger role in the starting lineup, while Jaden McDaniels (76% available) will continue to create value with his outstanding defensive productivity. When it comes to South Philly tonight, try to make space for De'Anthony Melton (78%), who is projected to play significant minutes as a vital two-way player with James Harden out.

Change of Guard: With Harden out, the Sixers offense will look different. Instead of Harden banging the ball, Tyrese Maxey gains usage. It didn't take long for that move to have an effect on this offense, as they ran 8.8% faster in their first game without Harden than they did in the first nine games of the season at the NBA Basketball Betting Tips. Joel Embiid sat out that game and is expected to play tonight, but Maxey is unlikely to change his stripes. Philadelphia faces a Suns club that has played slowly in nine games this season, including three against the Blazers. Phoenix has the athletes to run, especially with Embiid, but it's logical to expect them to crank up the tempo in this location. In Phoenix's best four speed games, an average of 227.3 points were scored, while in the 76ers' top four pace games, both teams scored an average of 226.3 points. The over/under for tonight is currently set at 215.
Important Injury Updates: After missing the previous four games due to a calf injury, Damian Lillard, who is presently fifth in the league in usage %, has been upgraded to doubtful for tonight's game against the Heat in Miami. Anfernee Simons, the team's leading scorer, is not anticipated to participate at the NBA Basketball Betting Tips. Brooklyn might see Ben Simmons return to the lineup tonight, as he has been upgraded to questionable to play Luka Doncic and the Mavericks. Simmons has missed the team's previous four games due to a knee ailment, so how he appears guarding the league's most heliocentric superstar will be telling. Former teammate Joel Embiid, who ranks seventh in usage, is classified as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Suns after missing the previous week due to a non-Covid sickness. Embiid's involvement in weekend practice looks to be a good indication.
Due to a groin injury, Toronto Raptors All-Star forward Pascal Siakam will be sidelined for at least two weeks. Without Siakam's high-usage game, Precious Achiuwa (92% available in ESPN leagues) was a logical pick to get more time in the frontcourt alongside Chris Boucher (50.1%), but Sunday saw rookie Christian Koloko (99%) thrive as the team's primary paint protector with a career-high six blocks in a win over the Bulls. With Koloko priced at the floor on DraftKings at $3,400 for tonight's rematch with Chicago, it's wise to try and roster both him and Boucher ($4,400) ahead of tonight's game.
With Gordon Hayward and LaMelo Ball ruled out for the Hornets' game against the Wizards tonight, Terry Rozier is positioned as a DFS building block ($7,700 on DraftKings) and a potential to outperform scoring projections as the team's high-usage offensive engine at the NBA Basketball Betting Tips. With Hayward out, Kelly Oubre Jr. (30% availability) is primed to take on a greater role. It's worth noting that he's scored at least 16 points in five consecutive games. Those in deeper category-driven leagues should keep Jalen McDaniels (91%), who has averaged 2.8 stocks (steals plus blocks) over the previous week, in mind.
Threading a Thin Needle on NBA Basketball Betting Tips: The Pistons' backcourt is dynamic, and their matchup with the Thunder seems to be advantageous, but OKC has the sixth most efficient defense in the league. When they played the Thunder this season, just 37.5% of guards with an average PRA of at least 23 outperformed their current season average (going under their average by 1.9 per game). On the other hand, what about those alternative options? Those having a PRA of less than 23? They have exceeded expectations 80% of the time (by an average of 4.8). Tonight, Cade Cunningham falls into the previous bucket and Jaden Ivey climbs the ladder. There are props where you can play Cunningham under his PRA total and Ivey above and break even if one of them comes through. If both come through and the current patterns continue, you'll be off to a tremendous start in Week 4 of the NBA Basketball Betting Tips season!

Sebastian Named One of the World's 25 Most Adventurous Men
MEN'S JOURNAL'S WORLD'S MOST ADVENTUROUS MEN LIST!
In its April 2017 issue, Men's Journal named Sebastian one of the World's 25 Most Adventurous Men of the last 25 years. It is an incredible honor considering some of the other names on that list. On a personal note, however, Sebastian says: "I am humbled by this inclusion. I feels strongly that there are names whose omission is notable, and should have been included even ahead of my own. In Polar exploration, for instance, it is hard to think of someone more deserving than Børge Ousland, one of my personal heroes. Still, it is nice to be included and always appreciated when the trips, successful or not, get the nod. So thanks a bunch, Men's Journal, this pushes me to do better!"

Men's Journal released its list of the 50 Most Adventurous Men. Sebastian was humbled and honored to be listed among many of his heroes. It is hard to compile such a list when so many others feel like they are missing.
Still, this reinforces his conviction that adventure and awareness work hand in a hand in the current climate crisis. As Sebastian has said: "we face an 'all hands on deck' moment if we are to reclaim our history and rewrite a happy ending for our children's generation".
It is also great encouragement for Sebastian's THE LAST GREAT MARCH–NORTH POLE 2016 mission–unsupported, unassisted walk from land to the geographic North Pole with partner Mark George. Stay tuned for more on that!
You can find the list here.

"Unstoppable": Dramatic New Research from NASA on Ocean Rise from West Antarctica
New findings: West Antarctic Ice Sheet is inherently vulnerable to change and creates "unstoppable" ocean rise.
This report on NASA's new study, led by glaciologist Eric Rignot at NASA's JPL and the of UC Irvine, points to dramatic and "unstoppable" melting and contribution of the West Antarctica ice sheet to ocean levels. The gist is that the grounding line–the point at which ice and ocean meet below the waterline–is receding as it erodes the ice below the surface with warm water, essentially transforming glacial ice mass into ice shelves.
This finding, which represents decades of research from NASA, points to ice valleys around the Pine island glacier in West Antarctica among six others in the Amundsen Sea region which are below sea level for hundreds of kilometers inland. This sets a positive feedback of receding grounding line for that entire regions for six similar glaciers. With no hill below the ice to slow or stop the water from eroding the ice, there is no way of effectively stop the melting of the Antarctica ice over the next couple of centuries, which alone will contribute to four feet of global ocean rise.
To further this dramatic finding, the positive loop on other regions of the world such as the East Antarctic ice or the Greenland ice sheet will affect the configuration of other ice shelves further increasing ocean rise over the coming century.
The full recorded report including media questions can be heard here.
A digest of those findings can be read here.
"Unstoppable" ice melt from West Antarctica leads to unavoidable and dramatic rise of ocean levels.

This picture proves that I was born to advertise.
As a young girl growing up in Brooklyn and Queens, the public library was my creative oasis. It wasn't just a hangout spot for me but a place where my imagination could run free. I would walk up and down aisles and aisles of books hoping to discover my next fictional adventure. When I searched for books I was more concerned about the story and less on the illustrations. I paid more attention to the book titles and the synopsis on the back covers. It was like the book covers were small ads enticing me to read the imaginative tale that was sandwiched between its covers. Little did I know that years later my interest in reading and creative writing would lead to my interest in a career as a copywriter. Besides writing poetry, I enjoy cooking, blogging about fashion, and tennis. I'm also a huge science fiction buff and an avid concertgoer.


I'm not sure about you, but when I don't sleep well, I can be pretty miserable. I'm not much fun to be around and I don't work well – I can't sustain my focus.
We already know that sleep deprivation among workers is a billion-dollar problem across the globe. But how about the absence of sleep quality for your leaders – what impact does it have on subordinates?
Current research suggests that there is a harmful trickle-down effect from supervisors to workers, particularly when there is a lack of leader sleep quality. Some even feel the lack of sleep can turn into leadership abuse. Certainly, some supervisors have personality characteristics that lead to harmful relationships and performance issues, but the lack of sleep quality exacerbates pre-existing challenges. And still, for supervisors who generally get along well with others – the lack of good sleep, can and will harm working relationships, especially if it's not well managed.
When leaders are sleepy and grumpy their workers just may get dumped on. And when leaders get dumpy, workers are treated poorly, often to the point where productivity suffers, but safety performance will be impacted too.
Organizations need to be aware of the current sleep-deprivation challenge which may be related to family and relationship problems, shift work, or health-related concerns. Individuals who have such issues should be offered counseling, medical support, and be made more fully aware of diet, exercise, and appropriate sleep management strategies.
In addition, leaders and associates need to work together to understand how sleep issues can harm communicationsand be willing to deal more appropriately with each other when there are sleep-related challenges.
It's very easy to trivialize the lack of sleep quality, but when you observe and experience the deleterious effects, you quickly realize the insidiously dangerous outcomes to the health and safety of all organizational members.

Exclusive: BetterDoctor being acquired
Ina Fried, author of Login
Screenshots via BetterDoctor
BetterDoctor, an online site that helps health care networks keep track of data on providers, is being acquired by Quest Analytics (no, not the people you go to for your blood work — that's Quest Diagnostics).
Why it matters: While much is made over the role of AI and machine learning in cutting costs for healthcare, those techniques are only effective if the underlying data is good. The deal brings together two companies that work behind the scenes to help health care systems keep accurate information on doctors in their networks.
Terms of the all-stock deal were not disclosed, though the two companies are of similar size (about 50 employees each). BetterDoctor CEO Ari Tulla will run the combined company.
BetterDoctor began life as a referral site for consumers, but pivoted in 2015 after finding that a good chunk of the data was inaccurate. For the last three years it has worked on helping provide better information to doctors.
"Almost half of the doctor information on the web and in health care directories is inaccurate," Tulla told Axios. "We got so many complaints it was impossible to run a service like that."
In many cases that leads to patients being given a wrong phone number or address. Worse, though, is when customers are told a particular provider is in their network but later learn that was wrong — via a giant surprise bill.

Samsung plucks an iOS 15 design change for its Galaxy phones
By Hannah Davies
November 4, 2021 11:50 am GMT
1. You might like
Samsung is testing one of Apple's more controversial iOS 15 features in its Samsung Internet app. The update sees the browser's address bar relocated to the bottom of your screen.
The Samsung Internet update was spotted in the beta version of the browser by the Verge's Dan Seifert.
well gee samsung, I wonder why you suddenly decided to add this option now to your browser, I just can't fathom a guess pic.twitter.com/WTTI98OwQv
— dan seifert (@dcseifert) November 3, 2021
The concept of putting the address bar at the bottom of the browser isn't a new idea, as Seifert points out in his Twitter thread. It also didn't originate with Apple, with companies like Microsoft having implemented it in the Windows Phone years ago.
However, it is interesting that Samsung waited until Apple rolled out the feature in its Safari beta before testing it out on its own phones – especially seeing as how Apple received so much backlash for it when the company originally made the changes.
Apple initially made it so that users were forced to use the address bar at the bottom of the display and removed a number of shortcuts from the browser. However, it later added the ability to choose where the bar is placed after complaints rolled in from disgruntled iOS and iPadOS users.

We found the biggest issue with moving the address bar was how it messes with your muscle memory at first, but some users will find it useful to have the bar closer to where their thumbs hover over the screen.
There's no clear winner here, meaning where you position your address bar will all come down to personal preference.
Thankfully, Samsung has included the ability to move the address bar to the top or bottom of the browser from the get go, so you won't need to worry about getting used to the new location if you already hate it.
Just head into the browser's settings and hit 'Layout and menu' to choose the placement.
If you're an iPhone user, you can also learn how to adjust the settings for the Safari address bar in our guide to changing the look of it in iOS 15.

Home/Blog/Holiday Gift Ideas & Ways to Reward the Scientifically Driven Person
"Scientific Reasoning" is a key intrinsic motivator for many individuals. This is one of the ten facets measured on the CDR Drivers & Rewards Assessment. Commonly, professionals and leaders who thrive on all things science, can be found in technical, engineering, research, natural sciences or medical fields.
Interestingly, if Scientific Reasoning is one's true calling, they may find other drivers such as "Business & Finance" or "Companionship & Affiliation" to be dull or potentially annoying. What this means is that pushing these individuals to focus on too heavily on budgets and economic analysis might drain their energy or cause their minds to wander. Those with high Scientific Reasoning may also have a couple of other high or low drivers that may complement this driver such as "Artistic Endeavors" or low "Companionship & Affiliation."
Additionally, scientifically focused professionals often tend to be introverts who prefer working in solitude. Forcing them to attend too many relationship-building or team events hoping for that Kumbaya-moment can be futile. Training and meetings should be carefully designed and facilitated with their unique scientific profiles and needs in mind.
Bottom line, those who score high on Scientific Reasoning simply love science.
They will tend to have:
"…strong interests in scientific analysis and discovery, fascination with technology, and a lifestyle organized around the pursuit of knowledge concerning the mechanics of how things work. They believe that the mysteries of the universe can be explained through good science, that research holds the keys to progress, and they will look for objective reasons for outcomes and events. They may also:
Derive pleasure from working through puzzling problems & answering esoteric questions
Be driven by the notion that science is critical to our success as a civilization
Enjoy spending time with other scientists
Like pursuing truth and could thrive in a research-oriented work environment
Prefer the precision achieved through science to operating on faith or conjecture"
It is the time of the season to think about holiday gifts for the high Scientific Reasoning person. Just think about, and consider, all things science within your budget. Here are more than 20 ideas from basic purchases to extravagant trips:
Computer or mobile device gadgets, apps & upgrades
Science museum tickets, Zoo Friend passes, planetarium and aquarium passes
The latest in robotic, AI or radio controlled toys
Tools and gadgets to fix things
DNA artwork. Turn DNA into a work of art. This company will take a swab of one's own DNA and turn it into the "world's most personalized art." They process one's genetic information and print the resulting bands that is them on canvases. They also do fingerprints.
Scuba or snorkeling adventure
The toughest puzzles anywhere (so they claim!)
Walking tour of a natural life setting park or reserve like an alligator park (Brazos Bend State Park near Houston)
Chemistry set, Molecular Gastronomy Kit, "The Art of Science" Trivia Game
An EcoSphere, developed by EcoSphere Associates, Inc., is a complete mini-ecosystem enclosed in a glass sphere. It contains micro-organisms, tiny shrimp, algae, bacteria, and sea water. The sphere's ecosystem has an average life expectancy of two years and requires little maintenance.
Bigger ticket item gifts for those who relish Scientific Reasoning with more planning, time and financial resources required:
Tours of volcanoes, safaris trips, glacier visits
A trip to the: Mütter Museum (the creepiest place I ever visited though the physicians in my family loved it….) This medical museum in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania "displays its beautifully preserved collections of anatomical specimens, models, and medical instruments in a nineteenth-century 'cabinet museum' setting. The goal of the Museum is to help visitors understand the mysteries and beauty of the human body and appreciate the history of diagnosis and treatment of disease."
A trip to the Rain Forest in Costa Rica or to the Galapagos Islands
Schedule a dinosaur dig vacation
Take a submarine ride!
Swim with the dolphins!
Visit Alaska
See "11 Geeky Vacation Destinations" according to PC Magazine that includes these four:
"The Large Hadron Collider at Switzerland's CERN center is the world's larges particle physics laboratory, conducting experiments that could give us insight into the essential composition of the universe itself.
For something a little more grounded in reality, NASA offers four-day programs at the Adult Space Academy, which will give you a little taste of astronaut training.
Mountain View, California's Computer History Museum is like Mecca for our kind. Located in the heart of Silicon Valley, this institution has a storied history—its first exhibition was in a converted coat closet in the lobby of early software vendor DEC way back in 1975.
If you're into retro games but emulation just isn't scratching the itch anymore, head out to Laconia, New Hampshire to pay the American Classic Arcade Museum a visit;" and,
many more ideas can be found by searching the internet.
At work, here's 10 ideas to reward and incent performance for the Scientifically driven person:
Provide opportunities for problem solving and recognize their inclinations and achievements as "technical experts"
Allow them to work on technical matters; serve as resident/team experts on technical and scientific matters
Encourage their expansion of knowledge and satisfy their curiosity
Use their solutions – when you can and recognize their contributions by sharing with others
Provide them with cool gadgets, updates and state of the art equipment
Opportunities to participate in research or develop inventions or products or services they find fascinating
Encourage these individuals to mentor others; possibly even participate in educating or talking to youth groups, or serving on science fair committees or judging panel (if other aspects of profile support this)
Provide opportunities as rewards for them to attend training or symposium and to stay up-to-date – advanced workshops (possibly not even directly work related — find out their interests), award of a trip to NASA
Purchase subscriptions to scientific publications and journals (even National Geographic, Popular Science, etc.)
Actual Case Idea – We had a case where an IT Director had a masters degree in meteorology and was the president of his local Hot Air Balloon Club. This would be a great opportunity for his company to consider sponsoring an event or his balloon, or at least cover his hobby with press in the company newsletter.
The point is when you honor and support (or reward) a persons true drivers or intrinsic motivators, you cannot miss. You will bring them joy, satisfaction and will peak their interest and potentially, for the science minded, their sense of adventure and discovery.
Note: This blog post is not intended to endorse or recommend any product or service from any vendor but rather to help readers with formulating ideas for rewards and gifts.
What is most important is for the False Advocate is to not go silent. The silence opens the door for the False Advocate reactions. Anticipate, plan, and practice and the False Advocate tendencies can be prevented.
