Online Overwatch Betting: Join the Ultimate Online Betting Experience
Overwatch is one of the most action-packed games in all of esports. In just a few years, it has gone from an obscure game built from the scraps of a canned Blizzard project (known as Titan in the industry) to one of the world's most exciting esports experiences. The Overwatch League is now among the premier esports competitions with production values and skill levels matching all that other big publishers can bring to the table.
Why you should bet on the Overwatch League
Betting on the Overwatch League is a great way to spice up your viewing experience and to have a bit of skin in the game when watching the best Overwatch teams duking it out with one another. There are also quite a few handy tips you can keep in mind to place well-informed wagers on the game!
In some games, it's easy to predict who will win, and this leads to static betting lines and tight margins. Not Overwatch. Anyone who's ever watched a game knows that anything can happen. Sure, skill wins in the long run, but with best-of-one tournaments, there's always a long list of Cinderella's making epic runs to the Final Four and beyond. The fast pace, the volatile format and the complexities of team composition leave plenty of room for underdogs to spring a surprise. One mistake and it's OVER (watch!)
Ever bet on a tournament and get no excitement out of it? As fans of all the major esports, we know exactly how you feel. We are betting because we are trying to spice things up, but even the spiciest of sauces can't make up for a game where the fate of one team is sealed from the beginning. In Overwatch, just one mistake can end even the biggest favorite's chances, and this leads to edge-of-your-seat action through the entire contest. You get hours of entertainment for just a few dollars. Hard to beat that!
Tons of in-game variables
Just like other online battle games, Overwatch's 6-v-6 format, first-person game mode, and different game types lead to a bunch of in-game variables. The more details there are, the more things there are for an enterprising bettor to analyze. That amounts to even more opportunities for you to gain an edge on the betting public.
You can still be an early adopter
Dota,LoL, CS:GO, and the other major esports games offer a lot of great betting action, but many of the teams and players involved are longstanding veterans of the game and there's a clear hierarchy of favorites and underdogs. This isn't necessarily the case with Overwatch as the scene is still developing and Activision-Blizzard are actively making adjustments all the time to accommodate their burgeoning franchises. The impending launch of Overwatch 2 should also serve as a shot in the arm for everything Overwatch-related.
Hitching your wagon to a team at this fairly early stage of a growing esport means you can cheer them on all the way from humble beginnings to massive success. Find your new favorites, watch them rise, place a bet: this way, when they win, you both win along the way.
Non-stop action
With 6 players on each team, tons of in-team strategy, 21 in-depth characters each fighting it out in a number of categories, and differing objectives, there's no shortage of heart-pumping action. Best of all, there are many competitions to follow, like the Overwatch World Cup or Overwatch Contenders, when the league is on a break or if you're looking for ever more exciting action.
Esports is a key part of the game
Unlike some other professionally played video games, Overwatch was basically designed from the ground up to enable exciting competition in the form of the Overwatch League, and the health of the highest level of gameplay has always been an important part of patches and other game design decisions. The importance of Overwatch's esports scene to the game's devs is almost unparalleled in the industry, and this is a big part of why you can always expect an exciting and well-curated experience when you tune into a competitive Overwatch stream.
How Does Overwatch Betting Work?
What are betting odds?
At Rivalry, we express Overwatch League betting odds as a decimal. For example, if Team A at 1.5 odds is going up against Team B at 3.0 odds, and you bet $1 on Team A, then you stand to win $1.50.
As an esports book, we use betting odds to reflect the likelihood of a certain outcome. The higher the odds, the less likely a team is to win (and the more money you stand to win if you deftly spot a mislabeled underdog). These are the basics you will find on all Overwatch betting sites.
What are proposition bets?
Proposition bets, or 'prop' bets can cover almost any in-game event for betting purposes. Who gets the first kill and who wins the first map? Both are prop bets. Who gets the best KDA and who will be the MVP? Prop bets as well. The over/under on the number of maps played? You guessed correctly - this is a proposition bet as well.
Overwatch Betting Tips
As big Overwatch fans, we've been following the game and its professional scene for quite a few years now and we've got a few tricks up our sleeve that can help you beat the odds as well. Having a better understanding of how to place a well-informed bet will make wagering on the Overwatch League and other such events all the more fun. Here are a few of them for you!
Keep up with the meta
Suppose someone decided to change the rules of football overnight. Surely you'd instantly think about how that affects the various teams and players. You need to do the same in esports, and especially when it comes to the Overwatch League. The various format changes, hero locks and other adjustments made by Blizzard have broken many successful teams, and if you can quickly figure out which teams are the most adaptable and who will benefit the most from a patch, you can easily find an edge when you want to bet on Overwatch League matches.
Reddit is your friend
Follow teams and players on the game's subreddit and listen to what respected names have to say. Learn how to spot what is clearly promoted rhetoric and what is level-headed analysis. If anything, just use the sub as a place to follow news and get insight before the general public does.
Players' social media can contain a lot of nuggets
You might think it's just tabloid gossip and bland platitudes that end up on Twitter in esports, but scouring the players' profiles can deliver a surprisingly high amount of little nuggets that can help you place a better-informed bet! If a player is actively complaining about the new meta online, chances are he won't be performing as well as usual in their next competitive match.
Some even go as far as to check their Steam profiles to see whether they've been grinding the game of their career or some other exciting title for a bit of fun. Having 40 hours in PUBG over the last two weeks doesn't bode well for your next Overwatch match, and the same holds true for professional players as well.
Understand team rankings
Since competitive leagues aren't nearly as well formulated as other sports yet, competitive rankings can be volatile. However, they are a good place to go to test the odds. If you see some odds that don't sit right with your intuition, check competitive rankings and how they've changed recently.
Understand team dynamics
Not only do you need to know the rankings of teams, but you also need to understand how they fit together. How well do they work under pressure? Which characters do they prefer? Do they do well without home-court advantage? Did they do a good job transitioning to online play? Follow your favorite teams on YouTube and try to spot up-and-coming teams first – or dig into the stats and identify which players are on the downfall long before the emotionally attached fans accept the same.
Follow tournaments
You can find all of the results here at Rivalry. If you follow tournament results closely and then analyze each team's performance, you can get unrivaled insight. There's nothing better than knowing more about the state of play than the talking heads at the desk dishing out the analysis on the official broadcast!

How does online Overwatch betting work?
Betting on Overwatch online is easy – find the match you're interested in, select a bet and place your wager!

Are there any bonuses for Overwatch betting?
Yes, Rivalry offers a generous welcome bonus, so you can bet on your favorite Overwacth matches.
Who is the richest Overwatch player?
Hong Jae-hee (also known as "Gesture") and Park Joon-yeong (also known as "Profit") were in the Guinness Book of World Records in April 2020 for their eye-popping $200 000+ lifetime earnings. The Overwatch League 2020 results shifted these numbers somewhat, and the data on esportsearnings.com suggests that Dong Jun "Rascal" Kim and Nam Joo "Striker" Kwon have overtaken their fellow Koreans with over $300 000 to their name.
Is Overwatch an MMO?
No, Overwatch is a team-based first-person shooter. The MMO you're thinking of would be World of Warcraft, another game made by Activision-Blizzard. Man, those people have a lot of blockbusters under their belt!
What kinds of bets can I place on Overwatch games?
Overwatch betting online offers many different opportunities for you to place a bet. Many betting sites don't go beyond the normal match winner or tournament winner bets with real money but we also offer handicap bets and over/under options here on Rivalry!
Is Overwatch a MOBA or an FPS?
The game could be best described as a first-person shooter with MOBA elements. There are no creeps on the map and no way to level up your heroes in the middle of the fight so it would be disingenuous to compare it to something like League of Legends. The closest cousin to Overwatch has to be Team Fortress 2 with its class-based team combat, but a mention of Call of Duty wouldn't go amiss either as the same company set up a similar esports structure around that title as well.

Capital One named Rose Bowl presenting sponsor
By John Ourand 11.23.2021
Disney Advertising Sales signed Capital One Venture X as the presenting sponsor for the Rose Bowl, which will be played on New Year's Day. Capital One first bought a presenting sponsorship for the game last year, when it was held in Dallas' AT&T Stadium due to COVID and hosted one of the College Football Playoff semifinals. Capital One will continue its title sponsorship of the Orange Bowl, which will be played on New Year's Eve this season and will host a CFP semifinal. Capital One is also an NCAA Corporate Champion.

Refactored Thinking | Upgrade your thinking, get the mental edge and dominate!
Agility as a term has been overloaded with multiple meanings, especially from the software development perspective. I define agility simply as the ability to change your perspective, your worldview (or orientation as Boyd would put it) and your actions to adapt to what's happening in the real world. There are two key ideas in that definition. The first one is about change and the second is about adaptability. You need to be able to do both if you have any hope of being agile.
So how do you create agility in your team so that you can respond quickly when the situation changes? Suppose a disgruntled customer tweets something negative about you, and then on top of that he buys an ad that will promote that tweet to 20,000 twitter users. How long will it take you to respond?
It happened last year when a British Airways passenger, unhappy that the airline lost his father's luggage, sent out a promoted tweet about their customer service being "horrendous" It took BA more than a day to respond to the customer. By then, the tweet had been picked by several media and news outlets. How would you have handled this if you were running the social media team at BA?
If you're like most companies, you'd have to first find out. if you don't have the necessary tools in place to get notified when something like this happens, you will unfortunately find out too late. This is the Observation stage of the OODA loop which I wrote about here. Assuming you find out early enough, you might have to go through a lot of bureaucratic red tape getting approval and sign off from everyone involved before a response is set in motion. Not very agile.
If your team was agile, you'd be able to respond a lot quicker and nip that negative publicity in the bud before it starts to spin out of control. Lets take another example. Suppose you notice a problem on your company's website that is severely affecting conversion. You enter a support request. How soon can the problem be fixed?
If the web development team was agile (and I don't necessarily mean that in the sense of following agile project management practices) someone can be pulled off of whatever they're working on to fix the issue quickly. More often than not, the issue will go unnoticed for weeks, if not months and even then, it will take more time to be properly fixed.
So how do you become more agile?
Here are some of the principles of the agile software development manifesto. Let's analyze them and see if we notice a pattern.
Your highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software.
What do you get by satisfying the customer through delivering continuous valuable software on a regular basis? What do you achieve by working together with the business? What do you get when your measure of success is working software?
What do you achieve by working with a team of motivated individuals who have the environment they require and the support and trust they need to get the job done? What do you get by communicating face to face and welcoming last minute requirements changes?
And what do you get when your single point of focus is delivering quality software at all costs?
If you study the OODA loop in my previous post, there's a part of it specifically about implicit guidance and control. This means that there could be a point where you don't need a formal process to actually get something done. A coworker recently mentioned that they had gotten so good at working with the developers that they no longer needed to discuss things formally, a lot of design decisions were made and communicated implicitly. This allowed both the designers and the developers to operate quickly and get things done faster.
In order to get to this level of operation, where the team knows exactly what to do and when to do it, the first element you need is mutual trust, unity and cohesion. Not just any type of trust, unity and cohesion, but the kind that is earned through working together through many different projects.
Of course it needn't be said that at the same time, the team needs to also spend time together outside of the context of work. This will help them get a sense of how everyone on the team thinks and allow them to build that level of trust.
In order to achieve that kind of unity and cohesion, both parties need to be striving towards the same goal. And so the second element you need is the concept of a single point of focus. The idea with single point of a focus is that all the surrounding activities must support it and everyone involved, not just everyone on the team but also the rest of the company, needs to understand, support and work towards this focus.
When team members in different departments do not have a single point of focus, they will focus on creating silos and protecting their department's turf. This is a sure-fire formula to get organizational politicking, power plays and turf wars and lots of bureaucratic red tape.
The easiest way to destroy agility is to mistrust employees by not believing in their ability to make their own decisions about what's right and what they should pursue. When things are going great, there's lots of trust in the team, but when sales start to shrink, many companies feel they need to pull the controls upstairs and start to manage by directive rather by mission.
One of the ways to communicate distrust is by micromanaging. When you micromanage, you are checking everything your team is producing and if you're not satisfied, you probably end up even doing it yourself. This is very common and it's a horrible way to manage people. I've been there before and it's not fun. After a while you lose any desire to produce quality work that you can pride yourself on and you lose any initiative you may have had.


LLLT therapy promotes healing – simple as that!
Low level lasers have been proven to be a remarkably safe, effective, painless, and medication-free therapy option for many decades now.
Low level lasers are also known as "cold" lasers, meaning that they do not have a thermal effect and are used to stimulate tissue rather than destroy it. The "cold" laser does not cause any tissue damage because healthy cells exhibit weak or no effects from the low-power laser while unhealthy cells exhibit strong effects. Low level lasers have been in use since the 1960's to help relieve a variety of conditions and no adverse side effects or negative impacts have been recorded.
With low level laser, a visible coherent light is applied to specific acupuncture points of the body (ears, hands, feet, etc.). Acupuncture points are access points to the body's energy path ways called "meridians". This light energy passes through the layers of the skin at these points and is received within the cell membrane by specific receptors. This causes an increase in the energy in the cell which jump-starts changes that positively stimulate the body's natural healing mechanisms to restore energy and re-balance the body.
Low Level Laser therapy promotes healing. It's as simple as that!
If you're struggling with migraines, stress and anxiety, weight control, or if you've been trying to quit smoking without any success, we can definitely help.
Get in touch today. Call 403-301-3730 for a free consultation and discover how low level laser therapy can be put to work so that you can get control over your life again!

Q: Boot freeze (black screen) when booting without power cable (ubuntu gnome 16.04 / Dell XPS15) I noticed some errors since yesterday. When I plugged in my power cable, my laptop froze (couldn't do anything besides a hard reboot).
When I tried to boot without power cable, I get a black screen after I log in to my account (so I do see the login screen)
When I boot with power cable, no problem. When I unplug power cable, no problem. When I plug power cable in again... freeze
I have my laptop for just 7 days, it's a fresh install. I only installed "tlp" as that was recommanded for handling power management.
I have a 512 GB SSD, nvidia GTX 1050, no touchscreen
Oh and I have a dual boot with windows 10. Windows doesn't have any of these issues.
I really have no clue what the issue can be.

A: I "fixed" it by replacing the nouveau driver with the nvidia driver. Now the problems are completely gone.
I guess I now need to read up on how to make sure that nvidia won't drain my battery...
If anybody knows any better methods that don't involve a nonfree driver, let me know.

An account of this collecting project is described in the essay Nuevo Mexicanos of the Upper Rio Grande: Culture, History, and Society. The Library of Congress has carefully researched the content of this collection to ascertain any possible legal rights embodied in the materials it contains. As is often the case with materials collected in the course of ethnographic field research, however, it is difficult or impossible to sufficiently identify specific songs sung by participants which precludes performing a comprehensive assessment of the copyright status of underlying musical rights in lyrics or compositions. The identification of specific speakers or singers included in sound recordings is also often difficult or sometimes impossible. It is our understanding that the folk music that Juan B. Rael collected in the summer of 1940 is within the public domain. Some of the alabado hymns in this collection are centuries old. The instrumental music dates to the mid-nineteenth century and some melodies are probably older. A few of the songs are twentieth century compositions but were created in traditional genres by anonymous authors and are part of the oral tradition as is the entire collection.

Suzanne Garment: The unending Rob Porter debacle highlights White House incompetence. And Trump's shrewdness.
Suzanne Garment The unending Rob Porter debacle highlights White House incompetence. And Trump's shrewdness.
Trump may figure that he can't win by reminding people of his own connection to sexual violence.
Why isn't this over already?
It's been more than a week since the Daily Mail first published charges of spousal abuse against White House staff secretary Rob Porter.
We're in the #MeToo era, which insists that we pay attention to such reports. We've even got a photograph of the black eye Porter gave one of his ex-wives. Porter himself is gone.
How did the White House get here?
Two big reasons: First, the Porter scandal has focused a spotlight on White House incompetence. Second, Trump sees an opportunity in this mess to appeal to his base while keeping the focus off his own allegations.
The White House can't get rid of this scandal. In fact, despite Porter's resignation, it's getting worse.
What's baffling is that the White House had ample history to learn from. One notable example dates back 30 years to the Reagan White House, which faced a spousal abuse scandal much like Porter's — involving high-profile official at the Securities and Exchange Commission John Fedders — and yet managed to emerge relatively unscathed.
Fielding may have spoken to Fedders, but there was no further official action until The Wall Street Journal broke the story on Feb. 25, 1985.
Like Porter's scandal, Fedders' had festered internally for months before it was exposed. Like Porter, Fedders claimed the abuse incidents were isolated. Like Porter, Fedders was defenestrated within days of the charges going public.
However, the Reagan White House got over this rough ground quickly and moved on. In contrast, we're all watching the Trump White House get further entangled in its own webs.
This is not to say that officials didn't make mistakes with Fedders. Even after the allegations were revealed, SEC Chairman John Shad said he wouldn't ask for Fedders' resignation: He had done his job well, Shadd explained, increasing agency enforcement actions by more than 50 percent.
A White House spokesman also initially told a press briefing that Reagan wouldn't act while there was a possibility of reconciliation. (There wasn't).
And yet, Fedders resigned within a day of the Journal story. So while Fielding was criticized for having let the scandal drag on, the White House was able to shift gears quickly when the story broke. The administration knew what to do: There were no mixed-up stories, no finger-pointing. The damage to the White House was contained.
The Porter scandal is already different.
The Trump administration would have had a higher hill to climb, even if it had behaved impeccably.
But the Trump administration didn't do that. Compare: Fielding, if slow to act, was also the very definition of an old Washington hand. He had been deputy White House counsel under John Dean during Watergate — and escaped with his professional life. After being Reagan's counsel, he would do the same job for President George W. Bush. Fielding is known for having an acutely sensitive political ear.
John Kelly is not. The former general was damaged goods even before the Porter crisis after his comments criticizing Rep. Frederica Wilson. And as Kelly stumbles, the rest of Trump's staff seems unwilling or unable to pick up the slack. White House Communications Director Hope Hicks, the co-drafter of Kelly's initial public praise of Porter, is — or was — also Porter's girlfriend. The 29-year-old, who formerly worked for Ivanka Trump's fashion label, is a daily reminder that this White House relies on people whom other administrations would have deemed clearly unqualified.
This chaos all came to a head on Feb. 14, when FBI director Christopher Wray publicly contradicted the White House time-line, laying out who knew what about Porter and when they knew it.
Then there's Trump himself. Where the White House's response hinted at a widespread incompetence, the president's betrayed a shrewd political instinct.
Initially, the president steered clear of the scandal. Then, once Porter was gone, Trump delivered his breathtaking victim-free speech about the former staff secretary: It's a "tough time" for him" Trump said, emphasizing that Porter had claimed "very strongly" that he was innocent. The president concluded by wishing his former employee well and hoping he had a "wonderful career" going forward.
Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere allegation. Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some are new. There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due Process?
But it did have to be said, and Trump barely said it.
Trump may figure that he can't win by reminding people of his own connection to sexual violence. He seems sure, though, that this is yet another issue on which his supporters can be mobilized against smug, self-satisfied, politically correct elitists. It's a clear signal to the troops. And there are signs that at least some of them have heard him.

When to banish your bainisteoir
May 15, 2018 by Cathal O'Gorman
A team's manager can be one of the most difficult factors to pin down when determining the factors that go into a team's success, or lack thereof. With so much of their work behind the scenes, how can you ever hope to determine how much they contributed to their team's performance? The nature of the work can also differ hugely depending on the team they're involved with: a manager who's good at organisation and tactics may do very well at the lower tiers, getting the most out of limited players, whereas at the higher levels more of the job may be about managing egos and trying to get the chemistry right.
Many attempts at trying to weigh a manager's impact have been made in other sports, and the results have often been inconclusive. For example, it's often been noted that a team on a bad streak improves after replacing their manager, but the numbers often show that it is impossible to place the blame on this change, rather than a simple reversion to the mean. Another issue is that, being such a thankless job, teams often have a high turnover of managers, reducing the available sample size to study.
Nevertheless, in this article, we're going to try our best to put some solid numbers on some of these difficult-to-quantify factors. Which managers stand out as exceptional? Should a team be quick to change things up during a lull, or should they value a strong and stable leader? And does switching the manager during a crisis help?
For this article, the 2018 season was excluded as it is still unfinished. The last 3 managers, from 2017 backwards, for the ten teams currently playing in Munster and Leinster were investigated. In order to compensate for the different length of different managers' tenures, and to acknowledge that not all teams faced the same quality of opponents, the metric used was the team's tournament rating.
The tournament rating, like the Elo rating its based on, originates in chess. Rather than basing a team's performance on simple wins, draws and losses, it also accounts for its opponent's strength. By looking at the total number of wins across a given number of games, as well as the opponent's rating at the time they played, a 'tournament rating' is generated. This rating represents what you would expect a team to have as their initial rating in order to end up with the same number of wins, draws and losses against the same opponents over the same matches.
For example: if a team wins five games against five opponents, whose average rating is 1500, then their tournament rating will be 1900, as a team with a 1900 rating would be expected to beat those at a 1500 rating over 90% of the time. Similarly, a team which lost all of these games would have a tournament rating of 1100, and a team with 2 wins, a draw and 2 losses would have a rating of 1500.
Though the tournament rating benefits from having a larger sample size, in order for teams to revert towards the mean, it still allows us to compare teams (or managers) who have had a different number of matches overall. Also, by comparing their tournament rating with their initial rating, we can see how much a team exceeded expectation. The ratings used for this article were the raw BAINISTEOIR ratings on the site; only the overall rating was taken into account, so other factors, such as home/away advantage or length of time since the last match, were ignored.
Who's best?
The table of the 30 managers investigated is given below:
Now, it's important to remember a few things here. For one, causation does not equal correlation; some teams simply have better raw talent than others, and there are many other issues and factors that can contribute to a team's performance which the manager has no control over. There are some names there who had a poor rating, who are better than the numbers imply, and vice versa. Similarly, managers with shorter tenures have less time to revert to the mean. Davy Fitzgerald, for example, performed extremely well in his first year in Wexford, with the highest performance over expectation, but his Waterford and Clare tenures have had more years to adjust; while he's clearly a good manager based on his tournament ratings, his 2017 season definitely looks like an outlier.
With all these ifs and buts out of the way, though, the numbers back up what we all already know: Brian Cody is absolutely exceptional.
Despite having an incredibly long stint in charge, and is possibly the only manager who's had enough matches for us to know for sure that his rating has reverted to its correct mean, he finished up with a total tournament rating of 2128 for his 19 year run from 1999-2017. Even with some less than stellar years thrown in, such as 2013 or 2017, he is still firmly in first place. At time of writing, there is no team with a BAINISTEOIR rating this high, meaning the average Brian Cody team, from anywhere within his 20 year run, would be favourites to beat any current team. Though it's tempting to dismiss his success as simply having better players, due to managing Kilkenny, it's important to remember that when he started, Kilkenny's BAINISTEOIR rating was an unspectacular 1869; their lowest point since the mid-fifties. The result of this is that he has the third highest performance over expectation, despite having to maintain this high standard for more than three times as long as anybody else that this study looked at. Even with the talent he has at his disposal, Brian Cody stands out as the best manager that was studied, and would likely appear top of the all time list.
There are a couple of other names that stand out in this list. Davy Fitzgerald is worth looking at on his own, as he appears three different times on three different teams. He is another manager who, given the larger than average sample size, appears to be confirmed as being particularly talented. His first year with Wexford was the highest performance over expectation of any manager. Though this will probably come down over time, it's almost certain that, by the time he's done, he'll have left the team in a better position than he started. His performance as Clare manager puts him in the top ten for total performance, and fourth for performance over expectation, and though his Waterford stint is not quite as impressive, his total rating is still at an elite level of 1982. Looking at his performance across his three different teams, he has a total tournament rating of 2001 and, on average, his teams have performed at a quality 174 rating points above what was expected of them.
Leaving into the performance above expectation, and leaving aside Davy's outlier performance with Wexford, we see his former teammate, Anthony Daly, is second place for his term with Dublin. Managing them for 6 seasons, his total tournament rating is about average for a top tier team at 1951, but when he began their rating was 1674, about what you'd expect from a team in the upper half of division 2A in the league. This is one of the rare examples of a hurling team breaking through from mediocrity into being genuinely competitive. Though some solid groundwork was laid by his predecessor, Tommy Naughton, who took the team from a rating of 1567 at the start of his tenure up to 1674 by the end, Anthony Daly's performance has been exceptional.
It can also be interesting to see that the ratings may not always line up with what we expect. The tournament rating system doesn't weigh any one match above another in importance, and so championship wins don't always align. Here we can see some of the managers who, despite coming very close, couldn't quite get their teams to an All-Ireland win, like Derek McGrath for Waterford, or Jimmy Barry-Murphy's 2011-2015 run as Cork manager. Nevertheless, they are rated higher than others who acquired more silverware.
The value of stability
So, looking at the chart, how do you know when it's time for a change? Do teams benefit from a changeup, or from keeping the same person at the helm, and ensuring that the players know who the authority is? The following charts look at how quickly each team got through their last three managers, and compare this to their performance:
Tournament rating vs Managers per year
Performance over expectation vs Managers per year
The results definitely appear to favour stability. Even taking Brian Cody, with his unusually long tenure, out of the chart, the trendline still points the same way. In other words, it's maybe not a great sign that both Limerick and Offaly have appointed yet another manager since last year.
However, there's another correlation versus causation question here: Are these teams struggling because they lacked stability, and a clear, guiding strategy? Or, did these teams lack stability because they were unsuccessful, and the manager changes simply a reaction to their inability to get going? How many second chances should a manager get before they're given the boot?
A fair go
In order to get a more general idea of how long it takes a manager to settle into their role, we looked at how each manager's year by year tournament rating compared to that of their entire term as manager. From this, we attempted to gain an insight into how managers appear in their first year, versus their second, versus their third, and so on. Of course, the sample size decreases with each year added; though there are 30 managers available for the first year value, this drops to 2 by year 6! Since the number of managers lasting more than a few years drops off so sharply, only the first 4 years were included in the chart:
The above chart shows how much the average manager performed above or below their overall rating in each year; each box contains the first and third quartile values for each year, and the lines extend to show the minimum and maximum values reached.
Of the managers studied, and excluding the six who are still in charge at time of writing (incumbent managers were excluded, both because we don't yet know the full length of their term, and because Cody is such an extreme outlier in terms of the length of time he's been around), the average length of a manager's term was roughly 2.8 years, with the median at 3 years. Funnily enough, this actually appears to be about right: Most managers need to have an adjustment period, and underperform in their first year. In many cases, this may be because they inherited a team in crisis (it's less often, though not unheard of, that the previous manager left in the middle of a good period), though in others, they simply need time for their changes to take effect. The second and third years are where things seem to take a turn for the better; the average performance in year 2 is the highest, though year 3 contains the highest maximum performance. By year four, we begin to see a decline; possibly by this stage other teams become more prepared for them, or their core of players begin to age, or the manager simply loses their enthusiasm for the job. Whatever the reason, most managers don't get past this slump in year four. Though it's not shown in this chart, due to the small sample size, the average performance begins to increase again for those few who survived more than four years; possibly because if you last that long, you must be doing something right. However, even if they don't decline, the performances really don't seem to get that much better than years 2 and 3. It seems that trial and error has found the solution; if a manager hasn't gotten things working after three years, the team is probably not going to get much better. However, if it's year 4 and they're still going strong, try to hold on to them!
A change in perspective
To wrap up on the topic of whether or not changing the manager makes a real positive impact, we looked at how tournament ratings changed year on year. By comparing the usual year on year change with those years where there's a new face in charge, we can see whether or not hurling has followed the trend of sports like soccer or basketball, where similar studies were inconclusive, or if a change of manager can really give a team the boost they need…
The chart compares the year to year tournament rating change experienced by the studied teams. The lines represent the minimum to maximum values, and the boxes represent the first to third quartile values. Looking into it, it does appear that hurling is in line with those other sports mentioned; there is no significant difference. There are signs which support the previous section's findings that a manager should at least get two to three years to prove themselves: Though there was slightly less year to year change, the highest peaks were achieved under incumbent managers, and the average performance improved slightly more year-to-year under incumbent managers than under new ones. However, at the same time, the standard deviation was a little bit lower, and the 1st and 3rd quartiles were closer together for incumbent managers. In other words: you know what you're getting with the incumbent. If things are going terribly, it might be worth the risk in trying out somebody new. However, whatever the final action, the main takeaway should be that the blame and the praise allocated to managers is rarely proportional to their actual impact. By and large, good teams will stay good, and bad teams will stay bad. There are some exceptions, with people like Brian Cody who can clearly make a difference, but at the end of the day, it's the players who matter.

Thiago Silva criticizes fields, logistics and ticket prices for Copa America
June 30, 2019	0	By admin
Thiago Silva endorsed the criticism of the lawns of the Copa America. After Messi, Suárez, Tite and other figures involved in the tournament talked about the matter, it was the turn of the Brazilian national defender to complain. And he took the opportunity to speak also about the value of the tickets and the difficulty of the traffic caused by traffic, especially in São Paulo.
"In terms of lawn, you all know the conditions on which the lawns are. Not only do we complain, but other players as well. I think it was the least that would have to be done to have good games, to have a larger audience. Suddenly, ticket a bit cheaper as well. The logistics of hotel in days of game is being very difficult, mainly in São Paulo. On training day that precedes the game, recognizing the lawn, we take almost an hour to arrive. Anyway, I think it could have been done a little better. I hope the next time they find a better solution – said the PSG player (FRA).
The Grêmio, Mineirão, Maracanã and Fonte Nova Arena lawns received criticism throughout the competition. After Argentina's 2-0 win over Venezuela in the quarterfinals, Messi went so far as to say that the ball "looks like a rabbit" in the Maracanã field. The only ones that received praise were Morumbi and Corinthians Arena.
On the other hand, it is in São Paulo that there are the biggest logistics problems. The duel between Colombia and Chile on Friday night needed to be delayed in 20 minutes because the Chilean delegation stayed two hours in traffic and arrived at the Corinthians Arena just 40 minutes before the scheduled time for the ball to roll. Many fans also had difficulty getting there. In the game of the Brazilian National Team against Paraguay, in the Arena of the Grêmio, part of the public lost the initial minutes facing queues to enter.
– I think the main thing is to have a good lawn, because then you will have a better show, well played. Much is said: ah, one team does not play, the other does not, it's just a kick. But unfortunately, sometimes, it has to be this way. Our team, which I find to be the most different from all of them, seeks to play even with bad grass, but we are at risk. Many times we do not want to take the risk and end up kicking the ball forward, out, end up not doing what is programmed in the trainings – completed Thiago Silva.
Brazil faces Argentina in the criticized lawn of the Mineirão at 21:30 on Tuesday in search of a vacancy in the decision, which will be in Maracanã. If you lose, you will make the third and fourth match at the Corinthians Arena.

LD Systems debuts latest DAVE G4X models
The DAVE G4X Series is a compact all-round PA for use on the road
Germany - LD Systems has introduced the new DAVE G4X Series. Exactly 10 years after the release of successful and long-running DAVE G3, the DAVE G4X 'sets new standards in the field of active 2.1 PA systems for DJs, live groups, solo entertainers, or parties'. Available in four sizes and performance classes – from the compact DAVE 10 G4X to the DAVE 18 G4X, which features a powerful 18" subwoofer – the DAVE G4X Series offers a modern range of functions and a professional acoustic design for a variety of applications.
LD Systems has extensively redeveloped the popular PA systems from the ground up. The models available are the DAVE 10 G4X (2 x double 4" satellites + 10" subwoofer, 680 W), the DAVE 12 G4X (2 x 6.5" satellites + 12" subwoofer, 1,460 W), the DAVE 15 G4X (2 x 8" satellites + 15" subwoofer, 2,060 W), and the DAVE 18 G4X (2 x 8" satellites + 18" subwoofer, 4,000 W).
All of the DAVE G4X versions now feature an integrated six-channel mixer with all of the important input options for a wide variety of setups consisting of microphones, instruments, line-level signals and auxiliary players – wired and wireless, thanks to integrated Bluetooth for easy streaming via a smartphone or tablet. The mixer's first two channels are designed as channel strips, allowing for the optional connection of a microphone, a high-impedance instrument – guitar and/or bass, for example – and line level sources.
Stereo line inputs 3 + 4 are suitable for keyboards, synthesizers, drum machines, or small e-drum kits. Making the DAVE G4X Series even more versatile is the digital SPDIF stereo input, and the Bluetooth connectivity. This way, the setup can be expanded with a media player, computer or smartphone to play backing tracks, sound effects, intermission music, or to use the DAVE G4X as a karaoke system.
The DAVE G4X Series is a compact all-round PA for use on the road. The three bigger models of the series DAVE 12 G4X, 15 G4X and 18 G4X are available now. The DAVE 10 G4X model will be available from the beginning of 2023.

Q: Don't systematically double the minimum amount to offer for a bounty
"if you offer multiple bounties on the same question, the minimum
spend doubles with each subsequent bounty (50 reputation on the first
bounty, 100 reputation on the second, 200 on the third, and so on)".

Since the amount of several of the bounties I have been offering (in the intention of drawing more attention to my questions) has just vanished without any profit to anyone, I prefer offering bounties in order to reward an existing answer.
In this case, some times after this bounty explicitly awarded, it happens that another valuable answer is posted to that same question.
I do would like to equally reward for that new work but just cannot offer less than two times the value I had awarded to the other answer. I think it would be just unfair!
Therefore, I suggest that the system should take into account the reason for offering the bounty and, in the particular case of rewarding an existing answer, does not apply the double minimum spend requirement.


The ointment was gooey and got forever to make, hours sometimes.. Australian neuroscientist tests Chantix University of Queensland pharmacy graduate Dr Selena Bartlett is beginning clinical trials of a fresh drug which could potentially curb addictions such as for example smoking, drinking, gambling depression even. The medication, marketed as Chantix by Pfizer, has reduced alcoholic beverages usage in laboratory rats by 50 % and you will be trialled in humans the following month by Dr Bartlett and Dr Markus Heilig's group in the usa. Dr Bartlett may be the Director of the Preclinical Advancement Group at the Ernest Gallo Clinic and Study Centre, among the world's top alcoholic beverages and addiction study centres, at the University of California in SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA.He stated municipal authorities released a campaign in the region to ensure the way to obtain clean water to occupants. Health officials are following a public awareness marketing campaign to educate and instruction people and doctors across Karachi about the condition, he said. Other areas of Pakistan are also alerted but up to now no full cases have already been reported elsewhere, Khan said. You don't have to panic of these deaths, he stressed. There exists a remote opportunity for the spread of the deadly disease. He stated people don't generally get the brain-affecting type of the disease by normal water, but by swimming in filthy water or washing their nostrils with contaminated drinking water.

The EoI process is complete. We aim to make an announcement of the successful practices by 11 July.
This month 12 General Practices from across New Zealand were officially certified Health Care Homes, in the inaugural certification for this new model of care. The Health Care Home model is designed to ensure primary care remains fit for the future; able to cope with increasing demand, an aging population and workforce challenges whilst at the same time delivering improved patient outcomes and satisfaction.

11 April 2018 Midlands has recorded a significant fall in hospital visits by patients of practices using a Health Care Home model.
A GP-run network in New Zealand has recorded a significant fall in hospital visits by patients of practices using a Health Care Home model.
The Kiwi version is bolder than the Australian government-backed HCH trial confined to patients with chronic disease, in that it involves whole patient populations.
"Our Health Care Home model is a much broader and radical redesign of general practice," Helen Parker, Health Care Home strategic development manager at the Pinnacle Inc network, told The Medical Republic.
Data collected by the GP-owned organisation showed that patients of HCH practices were 16% less likely to be admitted to hospital and 8% less likely to present to an emergency department.
The results will be presented in a report measuring the outcomes and performance of the HCH model, expected to be published next month.
Since Pinnacle kicked off the HCH model in New Zealand's Midlands region in 2010, a total of 15 practices, with 101,000 patients, have made the transition.
Exhaustive data collection has enabled the group to compare practices' performance and outputs on a range of indicators, Parker said.
It includes data on GP consultation types and rates, ethnicity and demographic data, email consults, and activity through patient portals where patients can check health records.
The raw data does not show precisely why hospital visits are reduced at HCH practices.
"We have yet to do analysis as to why that is so. But we can see that at the Health Care Home practices, the GPs and nurses see more patients," Parker said.
On the other hand, it's clear that the model is more efficient for doctors and patients.
"Patients registered with a traditional practice would have to go in for a face-to-face consultation if they felt ill or wanted some advice or treatment," Parker said.
The non-profit GP network is now supporting other practices and primary care organisations around New Zealand to roll out the model.
Although the New Zealand context is different from Australia's, with a long history of patient enrollment at general practices, Pinnacle is also sharing its expertise with Australian colleagues.

Health Care Home will be coming to selected practices in the Southern District during 2018, following an Expression of Interest process, starting soon.

The Westland Sea King has to be regarded as one of the most significant aircraft to see service with the British armed forces since the end of the Second World War. Proving to be more than an adequate replacement for the ageing Wessex, the Sea King was an exceptionally versatile workhorse, providing both the Royal Navy and the RAF with a helicopter that could adapt to any situation it was required to serve. From the perspective of the general public, the Sea King became a symbol of safety and reassurance, as these airborne sentinels would always be present in our hour of greatest need – no Search and Rescue Sea King would ever fly over a UK beach without immediately receiving the adulation of the holidaymakers below. As the Westland Sea King retires and slips into the aviation history books, it will leave a service legacy that is unlikely to be matched in the years to come.
The Royal Navy's Sea King HC.4 'Junglies' were specialist troop carrying helicopters and were synonymous with the Commandos of the Royal Marines and saw their combat introduction during the Falklands Conflict of 1982. Amongst the many roles performed by these relatively new aircraft included numerous rescue and replenishment flights and acting as decoys against the feared Argentine Exocet missile attacks. The threat posed by these devastating weapons resulted in a highly secret and extremely dangerous SAS plan to attack the Argentine airbase at Rio Grande and destroy the remaining Exocet missiles before they could be used. In advance of this attack, a small force of SAS troops were carried on board Sea King HC.4 ZA290, to be dropped off as near to the airbase as possible, so they could set up an observation post and provide intelligence. At the very extreme of the helicopters range, the crew of the Sea King knew this was a one way mission and after delivering their covert cargo, they were instructed to make their way to neutral Chile and destroy their aircraft.
Always an extremely risky plan, with the potential to go disastrously wrong, the SAS team discovered that the airbase was well defended and the inability to secure vital intelligence information resulted in the raid being cancelled. Sea King ZA290, which was the first 'new build' HC.4 to be delivered to the navy, made a heavy landing on a Chilean beach and was destroyed by its crew, who were later turned over to British officials.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (AlS) also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a rapidly progressive disease caused by degeneration of neurons that control motor activity in the brain and spinal cord. Adults between 40-70 years of age are the most affected group, and symptoms are primarily physical, not effecting cognition. The cause of this disease is not completely understood, but energy metabolism is believed to play a role. Mitochondria, which are the "power house" of the cell, process energy in the brain, and can affect how other cells perform. When a person develops ALS, there is a visible failure of energy production in the motor neurons that connect the brain to the muscles. The illness can cause symptoms similar to other neuro-muscular diseases, for example, Parkinson's disease, and include weakness, difficulty speaking, and impaired breathing. Life expectancy from the time of diagnosis is between two to five years. Currently, there are no known cure for Lou Gehrig's disease, though treatments exist to control symptoms, and certain drugs can slow the development of the disease.
The Ketogenic Diet has profound effects on the way in which the body processes energy. When the body is in a state of ketosis, its energy needs are being met primarily through the breakdown of fat into fatty acids and ketones, rather than carbohydrate-derived glucose. Since ketones seem to enhance mitochondrial energy production, and mitochondrial dysfunction plays a central role in neuronal cell death in ALS, research has been conducted to understand if the ketogenic Diet can be used to prevent the progression of ALS. Preliminary studies in mice have shown improvement in symptoms of ALS when fed a ketogenic Diet compared to non-ketogenic Diet-fed mice. Further studies are warranted to evaluate the potential benefit of ketogenic Diet therapy for ALS.

Ólafsfjörður is a town in the northeast of Iceland located at the mouth of the fjord Eyjafjörður.
The town is connected to Eyjafjordur via a 3.5 km one-lane tunnel. Fishing is the main industry in the town and several fishing trawlers make their home in the town´s harbor.
The municipality of Ólafsfjörður and Siglufjörður has merged to form a municipality called Fjallabyggð, which literally means Mountain Settlement.
The town grew up around the herring industry that was in much bloom in the 1940s and 1950s, but the herring are gone now.
Ólafsfjörður was connected with a road for the first time in 1940, when the horse riding trail through Lágheiði was improved enabling cars to get over the heath. Before, ships, seaplanes, and horses provided the transport.
