What is a Bankruptcy Proof of Claim?
Filing Decisions

By David Haynes
If you've received a notice from a bankruptcy court about someone who owes you money, do you know what you need to do to get paid?
In many Chapter 7 cases, there may not be anything left to pay creditors because the debtor can exempt quite a bit of property. Exempt property isn't sold or auctioned off during a bankruptcy. The non-exempt property is sold by the court-appointed trustee and distributed to creditors as cash payments. How does the trustee determine how much to pay each creditor? That is where the Proof of Claim comes into play.
Proof of Claim in a Bankruptcy Case
Before a creditor can be paid in a bankruptcy case, he has to fill out and file a Proof of Claim form with the bankruptcy court. The form is almost always available on the bankruptcy court's website. Or you can download a copy of the official form on the website for the United States courts.
The form requires that the creditor indicate the name of the debtor, the case number, the creditor's name and address, and the amount of the debt. The creditor must also indicate whether the claim is secured—protected by collateral such as a home or car—or unsecured.
The creditor must also fill out a few other details, including if the claim is entitled to priority payment over other creditors (domestic support obligation such as child support would qualify). Finally—and this is very important—the creditor must attach any documents that support the claim. The form must be completed and filed by a deadline established by the court.
Trustee's Notice to File Proof of Claim
Generally, a proof of claim will only be filed by a creditor if the bankruptcy trustee declares the case an "asset" case. In a "no-asset" case, there are no funds available to disperse. If it is an asset case, the court will send out a notice to this effect and will include information about how to file and the deadline.
The Creditors Who Are Paid First
The trustee pays himself a small percentage of anything he collects from the debtor. So this means that the trustee pays himself before all creditors. After that, priority debts are paid. Priority debts include domestic support obligations; wages, salaries, or commissions up to a certain amount and earned within 180 days of the bankruptcy; contributions to employee benefit plans; a certain amount of deposits for the purchase or rental of property; and taxes and penalties owed to the government. Once all the priority debts are paid, whatever's left goes to the unsecured creditors (those without collateral), on a pro-rata or proportional basis.
Claims Trading
A secondary market has sprung up for the buying and selling of bankruptcy claims, called claims trading. A creditor not involved in the bankruptcy may buy the claim of a creditor that is owed money by the debtor. If this occurs, a document indicating the claim trade must be filed with the bankruptcy court.
What Creditors Should Do in a Bankruptcy Case
If you are a creditor in a bankruptcy, you need to be aware of any deadlines to file a proof of claim. Deadlines vary according to the chapter that governs the case.
In Chapter 7, as described above, the court will send a notice of the claims deadline after the trustee determines that there may be assets to liquidate and use to pay creditors. In Chapter 13, the deadline is 90 days after the first date set for the meeting of creditors. In a Chapter 11 case, the court will set the claims deadline.
Therefore, you need to be very careful about reading all of the documents that you receive regarding the case. The best thing to do is to hire a bankruptcy attorney to help you navigate the bankruptcy case and to protect your rights as a creditor.
You'll likely need professional guidance, even it's simply to have an experienced attorney review the form after you've filled it out. Remember that just filing a proof of claim does not guarantee a creditor will be paid. In fact, in Chapter 7 bankruptcies most creditors will get nothing.

This Is Probably The New Dallas Stars Logo
Barry Petchesky
Filed to: dallas starsFiled to: dallas stars
The Stars were supposed to reveal their new logo and uniforms at a big, formal event on June 4. Yesterday, the team pushed out what appears to be the logo, as a wallpaper option on their official iPhone app. Oops?
Probably not an oops. These official-unofficial "leaks" are becoming the standard for logo reveals. Over just the past year, we've seen: the Nets logo on the wall of an under-construction Barclays Center; the Astros logo sold on iPhone cases; the Dolphins logo on some ready-to-ship merchandise. All put out to build up buzz before the official unveiling—and with the internet, just as effective.
Here's how owner Tom Gaglardi described what the Stars were going for back in January:
"What I wanted for this franchise was a logo and a look and a crest that when you look at it has timeless, original-six, vintage, classic qualities to it."
The problem is, (If there's a problem; I think it's a decent logo, though the internet is giving more mixed reviews), no one will ever mistake the Stars for an Original Six team, and it's not particularly original. As Puck Daddy points out, the above logo, lodged in a circular crest, seems tailor made for jersey fronts—just like those broken out in recent years by teams like Florida, St. Louis, and Minnesota. I know Dallas was thinking Boston's spoked B, but everyone else is thinking Winnipeg. That's not a good thing.
Here's a look at the logo without the crest. Now this could look good on a chest, or on a shoulder—but the smaller the better. The Stars have confirmed that green will be their new primary color, and the only team currently doing green—the Wild, with their third jerseys—walk a fine line of cluttering up a color that can't support much ornamentation.

Whatever your situation, I'm sure you have dealt with your own fair share of "fighting fires" in the workplace and that, by doing so, you've had to put some of your own work-related tasks on the back burner.
Have you ever wondered, though, when all of this firefighting might stop so that you can truly start to focus on your goals and earn that next promotion? You're definitely not alone there!
Many of you have reached out to me and shared your stories about how your goals have fallen to the wayside in the workplace… and many more of you have gone on to tell me that you're not too sure where to begin to get yourself back on track and set yourself up for success later on.
To me, the problems that arise for so many people are due to the absence of a system that helps keep us focused and on top of our bigger goals and priorities.
I talk about the importance of creating systems more on Episode 092 of Productivity Paradox this week as we kick off Season 8, but today, I thought I might share a few tips of my own that have helped me to significantly reduce the number of fires I have to put out at work.
It should come as no surprise that, without a sense of a big picture in mind in regard to what we're trying to accomplish and why it matters, we naturally tend to default to fixing problems and spending much of our time beholden to the needs of others.
The first major step to nipping our tendency to "fix things" in the bud is to remember our sense of purpose. So how do we do this?
Write down your goals. Whether your major goal is to earn that next promotion or to head your own company one day, I want to encourage you to write your goals down and to put them in a spot where you can keep them fresh in your mind on a regular basis.
The more you remember your goals and keep your purpose at the forefront of your mind, the more likely it will be that you are actually taking the steps toward achieving and making those goals a reality.
When we purge, we are moving information out of our brains. The act of writing it down is so important because it frees up your brain space so that you can focus.
To purge, we need to list all of the tasks that need to be completed. I recommend choosing a day or several days to do this. Our brains need to release this information and it's important that we designate a time and space for this to happen each week. The best part is that it can be done solo or with other members of your team!
I encourage you to give it a try: Jot down everything that needs to be accomplished that week. This is so important for getting things out of your head and onto the page, and the bonus here is that it can also jump start creativity—which is often a big component of boosting productivity and happiness in the workplace.
Being productive is about prioritizing and making the best use of our 1,440 minutes every day. Another way to make our time more effective and intentional is by batching, which allows you to group tasks by action like phone calls, emails, filing, and writing blog posts.
An important part of batching is preparing for the tasks you are about to undertake so that you're prepared to do them during the time you've allotted, which then enables us to be more effective overall.
The best part? Batching also reduces our transition time! It takes time to start new tasks and it takes time to transition to others. It's not the tasks themselves that make us tired and unproductive, it's switching from task to task that does.
We'll talk more about this throughout Season 8 of the podcast, but for now just remember… In order to stop focusing on all of the smaller tasks (fires) that we run into from time to time at work, it's important that make productivity our first priority instead.
If your main goal is to earn that next promotion—or just finding the time that you need to focus on creating your own business plan, then it's imperative that you learn how to protect the time that you have right now so that you're not constantly trying to put out fires instead.
Protect your time by thinking about who you are and how you work best. Remember those ultradian rhythms that we're always talking about on the podcast? We all have natural rhythms, an ebb and flow to our energy levels… and having an awareness of this allows us to better protect the most productive times of our day.
Some of us do this by waking up early so that we have the energy and space to work on things that are important to us–reading, writing, exercising, etc. Others do this in the workplace by filling in their schedule so that they're spending time on their biggest priorities first, and then by creating buffers in their schedule to ensure that their time is being spent productively.
Make time for your priorities and protect the time you want to spend on them… and see how quickly your goals come to fruition. I assure you, you will not be disappointed!
One of the biggest tips I can give you that will help you to put down your fire hose is to start delegating those smaller tasks that no longer serve you or your main purpose. If answering customer emails isn't your thing… delegate that task to an assistant or to a team member who's more comfortable with the task and has the time to complete it.
Spend too much time proofreading proposals, bookkeeping, or running the numbers for your business? Delegate!
Any task that you can assign to a member of your team will not only provide you with some major stress relief, but it will also give you the space that you need to refocus your energy on your goals and top priorities each day so that you're able to make the strides necessary toward the long-term success you want to see for yourself.
What are some of the ways that have helped you to stop constantly putting out fires in the workplace? Share your experiences in the comments below, and tune into Episode 092 of Productivity Paradox to learn all about my own planning process called the 5Ps and how it can set you up for success in the future!

Woodward's window touched on farce and leaves Van Gaal just a little short
September 7, 2015 by Ed Articles Ed Woodward, Louis van Gaal, Transfers
"Ridículo" ran the headline in two of Spain's leading sports dailies last week. No translation needed there. Except that the farce surrounding David de Gea's aborted transfer to Real Madrid extends beyond the Spanish capital to include a little too much of Manchester United's approach to the transfer window. It is the third summer in which the club's executive judgement must be called into question.
The window began with Memphis Depay's acquisition in May and ended amid bickering about the intricacies of FIFA's transfer matching system. From the hope of progress to come, to the relative embarrassment of a summer that offered a glimpse into a world of planned squad improvement, but concluded with too many questions for real comfort. It is a window that has left Louis van Gaal better off than 12 months ago, but still short of the resources needed to mount a truly effective title challenge
The club's critics, including Real Madrid chief Florentino Perez, crudely frame the narrative of United's summer as one of expensive incompetence where the truth encompasses a far broader story. There is a path forward to a future in which United returns to preeminence, albeit one there are few guarantees the club will take.
El Presidente was moved to labeled United's vice chairman, Ed Woodward, "inexperienced' following Madrid's failed de Gea chase. The Spaniard, like many, missed the nuance in the considerable farce – one that defies the basest evaluation. After all, subtly is a quality that rarely fares well amid all the media noise that accompanies each summer's extended haggling.
"It's the inexperience of the new people in charge," concluded Pérez last week. "This is exactly the same as what happened before with Coentrão and Herrera and we thought they would have learned from what happened in the past."
Base, perhaps, but Perez' accusation does cut to the heart of supporter concerns about Woodward's ability to land the biggest deals. The former banker has brought in more than £250 million in new talent since taking over from David Gill, but the impression remains that more astute executives have too often outmaneuvered Woodward.
The charge from Madrid is perhaps darker still – that Woodward's bumbling cost the Spanish giants a player, De Gea the move he so obviously desires, and United a £29 million fee.
Still, while the success of United's transfer strategy this summer will be judged in May, a window that began with the club having planned ahead, ended with more questions laid at Woodward's door. It is an uncomfortable position for the 43-year-old executive, who has enjoyed success on the commercial front, while being widely ridiculed for his exploits in the transfer market. Not all of it is fair.
In fact United's riposte to Perez' rant was sharp and, it is worth noting, credible. Briefing on the QT, United accused the Spanish giants of, essentially, bringing failure upon themselves with a bid at the 11th hour. Moreover, Van Gaal has privately expressed his delight at United's summer business, including retaining De Gea.
"The facts speak for themselves. The documents were in on time. Real seem intent to move the focus away from their own clumsiness this summer," a United spokesman told the Press Association. "We all like to blame others but if you let one slip through your fingers then ultimately the culpability is yours."
Quite. Others view Perez' agenda as less opaque than the childish sequence of claim and its rejoinder that filled the back pages last week. Some believe that the Real president was happy to leave De Gea in Manchester for another year, allowing the popular Keylor Navas to stay in Madrid, and the club to pick up a free transfer next summer.
Whatever the truth, Perez' narrative strikes a chord with some precisely because it hints at that wider perceived truth about Woodward. It is a view that may remain the dominant assessment of the Englishman until United lands the Premier League or the executive the 'worldie' he seemingly craves.
Outwith De Gea, United's summer appeared predominantly logical though. Signatures filled significant holes: Bastian Schweinsteiger and Morgan Schneiderlin add class and defensive cover in midfield; Memphis Depay pace and a goal threat in the attack. Matteo Darmian has already proven an inspired signing at a bargain price to cover the hole left by the departing Rafael da Silva.
Elsewhere, United's window has been more curious. And once again a little haphazard.
The discussion surrounding Anthony Martial has largely focused on the French teenager's price, which could potentially top £60 million if all bonuses are paid. Even in an inflated market, fueled by an upcoming 70 per cent increase in television revenues, the figure is eye watering. But the decision to complete the deal – with Chelsea seemingly closing in – was made at the very last moment, suggesting that opportunism and not long-term planning was very much to the fore. It is not the first time that observation has been made about United's transfer strategy under Woodward.
Van Gaal has stronger options now. No question about that. Yet, a transfer strategy is also one of balance. United's acquisition of six players this summer – two midfielders, two young forwards, a defender and a goalkeeper – is balanced, but counter-acted by Van Gaal's decision to let 13 players leave permanently. More still on loan.
Some departures were inevitable: the aforementioned Rafael, Jonny Evans and Nani. Tom Cleverley has long since accepted a future away from Old Trafford, while Anders Lindegaard has spent much of the past two years "picking his nose" on the bench. Angel Di María's unhappiness in Manchester was no secret. The Argentine's performances, if not his talent, are unlikely to be missed.
Other departures were more questionable in the context of Van Gaal's squad. The decision to let Robin van Persie leave for Fenerbache made sense only in the event United secured a replacement striker. The club did not. That decision was later compounded by Javier Hernández' sale to Bayer Leverkusen, which leaves Van Gaal with Wayne Rooney as the squad's only number nine. It is an imbalance that could well come back to haunt the Dutchman if Rooney's stark slump in form is not resolved in the coming months.
Meanwhile, United's failure to land an experience centre-back exposed the 'Sergio Ramos or bust' policy this summer. With Daley Blind still occupying a central defensive berth – and brutally exposed against Swansea City last weekend – the decision not to pursue Nicolas Otamendi, or another high-class option, could well become a source of regret. Not least because Van Gaal has fallen out with yet another player, Marcos Rojo, over the Argentine's failure to renew his passport, while Phil Jones is injured once again. Nobody should trust the Englishman's fitness.
The most oddball departure of the summer came with Adnan Januzaj's loan to Borussia Dortmund. The Belgian's technical excellence, pace and potential goal threat are all qualities Van Gaal has publicly identified as missing from his squad.
More broadly, Van Gaal's open-door policy has a led to a rapid transition in the nature of United's squad. Just seven first team players remain from Ferguson's time at the club: De Gea, Jones, Rooney, Michael Carrick, Chris Smalling, Ashley Young, and Antonia Valencia.
Moreover, of the youngsters offered an opportunity last season – Tyler Blackett, Patrick McNair, Reece James, James Wilson – few, if any, are likely to feature in the months ahead. Blackett and James have left the club; McNair and Wilson will enjoy only intermittent spells on the bench. The club's proud record of having at least one player from the academy in the match-day squad for more than 3,500 games in succession is likely to be broken this season.
The changes paint a picture of a squad development strategy that does not always sit well with supporters or everyone connected with the club.
"It was always about creating players. Now it is the opposite," said former assistant manager Carlos Quieroz last week. "There is panic buying. You have to prepare and then make the decisions together. You can still make wrong decisions but we never made panic decisions when buying players."
And yet, with so many millions spent, the focus also returns to United's balance, or lack thereof. Woodward's failure to land a world superstar may haunt the executive; his inability to fill all of the holes in Van Gaal's squad is likely to limit the team's competitiveness. Now that's an assessment worthy of the ridículo moniker.

nice one Ed, as always.
Question: and don't laugh here.. in the context of the outgoings, should we have kept Nani?
The Rookie says:
No way Nani would fit into Van Gaal's system.
Ben Turpin says:
Apparently Toby Jones is lined up to play Ed following his BAFTA winning performance as Neil Baldwin http://t.co/6FE4UdednV
DayusDred. says:
I am always looking forward to reading your views but am struggling to make sense of this.i will like to ask the following. Will you rather we allow Real to just do as it pleases them? Which of the outgone players will you rather keep? . Nani, Rvp, Rafa, or Henandez. Since when has taken displinary action again a professional player for not know when to renew his passport thereby reporting late suddenly become a fall out?. Has Januzaj with all his pace and technicalities justified his place in the team.? Is it not worth taking a gamble in securing a talent that city, chelsea, psg to mention but a few were also chasing rather than keep an old injury proned senior player? Will you rather keep an unhappy Di maria whose heart was never @ United but in Paris. I will like to know how best you think De gea episode should have been handled. We all have our opinions but unfurtunately we are no coaches.
DayusDred – hmmm I thought I was pretty clear. Any transfer strategy should be balanced and in letting so many go Van Gaal's been left with a senior squad of 19 + Wilson, McNair, Pereira and Valdes. Valdes is seemingly persona non grata and it's not clear how much Van Gaal trusts the rest. So United has a small squad with particular weakness up front (Rooney + Wilson + Depay/Martial, neither of whom is really a number 9) and at the back (Smalling + Jones, who is always injured + Rojo, who is out of favour + Blind, who isn't really centre back).
denton davey says:
"Has Januzaj with all his pace and technicalities justified his place in the team.?"
"all his pace" – what are you talking about ?
Adnan has demonstrated neither speed-of-foot nor speed-of-mind in is match-time this season. Yeah, I know, he scored a goal against Aston Villa but, other than that, he's been drab and off-the-pace.
Could his dreary play be a result of lost-confidence ? We don't know – what we do know is that he's not been TheMessiah….. In fact, he's been a disappointment since he burst onto the scene like a CR7-replicand but has turned out to be something of a hyped-up kid.
The skill leading up to this (deflected) goal wasn't too shabby. On debut for Dortmund:
https://youtu.be/xXqADdzbHzg
Skill don't matter to LvG! It's all about the system, philosophy, process and all the other BS.
We can all groan and moan about not bringing a "Big star" in to the team but i wonder where the signing of Falcao and Di maria got us last season. Moreover, who is that "Big star" that his parent club will be willing to let go?. Cavani, . Benzima, …… ? What is the guaranty that it wouldn't end like it did last season.? I think it was G. Neviell that said "We should be careful what we wish for". I completely agree with him.
And I agree with you – and RedNev.
bobbynoble says:
Bit of a dog's breakfast. Three decent signings of good value, ready-made players. Two teenagers for big money. Memphis a deal done at the beginning of the window, fair enough, but then Martial a last minute panic buy for seriously silly money.
It's not just who United signed but who they didn't.
No centreback, the Ramos thing was all ballocks and tying it it to the De Gea sale might have seemed clever but it was clear ages ago that it was a nonstarter. (The De Gea thing is funny and pathetic. Brinkmanship that leaves both clubs looking bloody idiots. The whole thing could well kick off again in January. The transfer might not go through but Dave could sign a pre-contract with Madrid in Jan and that'll be that. Probably play Madrid in C.L. in Feb.).
Madness not getting an experienced striker and relying too much on fatboy. Even if world class strikers are not available, United could still do with a stocking filler. We'll be stuck with Fellaini up front.
Loaning out Januzaj is a joke and I hear Wilson might now be loaned to Derby. United has the smallest squad for years, both in numbers and in experience, so how we fight seriously on four fronts baffles me. There's gonna be big pressure on Memphis and Martial to be successful this season and thats not fair. Even Ronny took a couple of seasons to get going.
Cant help wondering what the place would look like now if Gill and Ferguson had started spending all this cash three years ago.
Bob the Relentless says:
LvG as a coach has decided he is happy with his offensive options. A small squad may mean he is open to giving youngsters opportunities that were previously unexpected.. Look at the Mcnair situation. No-one expected him to get a shot at all and he started many games. Also the no CB makes sense if LvG believes that McNair will get a shot.
Maybe this season will uncover a new McNair. Maybe an Ashley Fletcher or James Wilson is expected to feature to some extent. Pereira, Powell and Lingard are all still in the squad too. Maybe him not purchasing more is a vote of confidence in the young players.
The goalkeeper thing is pretty dumb though. Why hold back Johnstone?
DenisL says:
Good article. Perez was absolutely right when he accused United of having a 'scatter-gun' approach to transfers. Is it a psychological ploy by Woodward to go after several 'big' names,thus detracting from the real failures in his transfer 'strategy'? Again,for the third summer running we have spent massively on one player at the very end of the window and again look like mugs.
The point is we are desperately short in key areas,areas that needed attending to early in the summer,before we let players leave.. It begs the question do Woodward and Van Gaal actually have a list of targets,which is then ignored or,more worryingly,do Woodward and Van Gaal actually communicate with each other?
Quieroz makes the point that players are not being created any more,at to a point he is correct.We used to sign moderately priced players and then opened up their full potential.Another thing that worries me is that by the very nature of Van Gaals 3 year contract it seems that there is a great deal of 'short termism' going on,the next manager is not going to have the same philosophy and we will be back to square one again.
Is a director of football needed? .
Opti says:
A tad harsh. If we had not signed Martial but kept Januzaj and Chicharito and De Gea, I think United's summer window would have been deemed a success (minus the established CB).
Instead, we sold Chicharito, loaned out Januzaj, bought Martial and kept De Gea… I think the difference is not enough to deem it a transfer window failure or joke. What about Chelsea's 33 players on loan or City's 16 players on loan at other clubs… how is that the mark of success?
In fact, it is rather clear that every window is improving as well (in terms of target refinement and acquisition).
Let May be the judge of the summer transfer window…
"Let May be the judge of the summer transfer window."
Totally agree.
All of us, sitting outside the decision-making process have no "real" idea of what has happened or why some prominent names splashed in the press were really targets – or just click-bait.
Will DDG re-sign for UTD ? Is he pissed with the rigamarole from Perez/RM/Marca ?
How good will Anthony Martial be ? Anyone of us who claims to know anything about this guy is either lying or just delusional.
Watching the German national team – a team featuring Schweini holding the parts together and Thomas Muller scoring twice – and the Spanish team – a team featuring the sublime talents of Andres Iniesta – has to make one pause when encountering negative comments about LvG's managerial ability. And, equally, the direction-less play of post-LvG Netherlands national team is also significant to bear in mind. Of course, Lvg is BillyBigBollocks but he's had a long run of success in a variety of settings and it remains to be seen whether he is just doing things his way or whether he is over-the-hill.
The criticism of Ed Woodward seems to me to be jejeune – he's an easy target but not one of us knows what he was doing. All we have to go on is rumour/click-bait and innuendo – like Opti said, if TheLads don't fare better by the end of the EPL/CL season then criticism is warranted; but, if not, then it's just premature preening by know-it-alls.
So let's not bother having a viewpoint until we have the benefit of hindsight?
bobbynoble – well quite. I normally find the "we can't judge until May" argument is essentially "I don't like your opinion so you have no right to have one"
"….. just premature preening by know-it-alls." says more about its author than anyone else. Plenty of smugness on that Canadian couch.
I hardly said – or meant – that. What I did say – and mean – is that "it's too soon to tell".
Does that mean that opinions are unfounded ? Of course, we don't have a full view of the situation or its evolution. But that doesn't mean that you (or Ed) or I can't have opinions but, rather, that those opinions are based on incomplete evidence – or, worse, the very smugness that you blame me as promoting.
The key point for me is that last season – and this one, so far – are very much a work-in-progress in which there has been a quite incredible amount of experimentation; some of it the result of giving everyone a chance by giving them game-time and some of the experimentation has been the result of last season's quite-incredible run of injuries which only enhance the sheer bareness of the midfield cupboard, as it were. In contrast, the result of last season's experimentation and this summer's recruitment seem to be a much more focussed and "leaner" first-team.
"sure the final judgement will be at the end of the season" (as Ed writes below) but I would argue that the results from the first few games is too small a sample-size to make serious, interim judgements. In that sense, I am neither an optimist nor a pessimist but, rather, waiting for more "evidence". I would think that we will be in a much, much better position to make a serious, interim judgement by Xmas when the season will be half-over and there will have been enough time for this post-experimental squad to gel.
With regard to Woodward's dealings in the transfer window – there is even less evidence for any of us to make a judgement in the sense that we don't know if the pursuit of Ramos and Bale was as much a form of click-bait as the proposed deals for Pedro and Otamendi. What we do know is that the purchase of Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin and Depay and Darmian were the result of a carefully conceived plan-of-action.
The later transfers of Romero and Martial – what we might call the "second phase of the transfer window" – seem to have been rather different, for rather different reasons, too. Romero was clearly brought in to provide insurance in case the DDG transfer worked out in a way that was acceptable. Martial's purchase seems to have been a case of getting an offer that seemed "too good to be true" insofar as this kid was a long-term target who suddenly became available. Martial was expensive and the reports about his up-side suggest that he has a very high ceiling – even if he is just a prospect, UTD's net spend was so low that splashing-the-cash seemed almost "reasonable" in the circumstances. That is how I see Woodward's actions in the second phase of the transfer season. I don't see how this "touched on farce".
Of course United is a work in progress, it always will be under Van Gaal. He is forever fucking around with it.
To move out Van Persie, Falcao, Hernandez, Januzaj and Wilson because they are surplus or not up to it, leaving only Rooney and presumably Fellaini (oh for fucks sake!) is ridiculous. To just replace them with two kids, who between them have little more experience than Januzaj and Wilson (and not in the premier league) is daft.
United have supposedly been following 'long term target' Martial for three years or more. So why didn't they sign him two years ago when he moved from Lyon to Monaco for a lazy five million euros? Too busy chasing Fabregas and Fellaini.
Brian Clough said promising kids should always be given time to develop and not pushed too hard too early. What will happen to Martial?
Opti – sure the final judgement will be at the end of the season. But I totally disagree if that's just another way of saying 'there's no point having an opinion now'. United should finish better than 17 points off the eventual Champions, but does anybody think a title challenge will be made. I find it hard to see a path to something better than 3rd, with 4th a more likely outcome. Is that progress? Did United get the summer right in terms of making that progress?
Of course, we are all within our rights to have an opinion, but most commentators have been focusing on the opinion+conclusion of the form: "I believe the transfer window has been terrible; therefore, Woodward/LvG are terrible for United." — I think this is just cheap shots at United [I am NOT saying that is what you did here, but many other commentators have made that point: I just prefer to comment on this site].
— Yes, the window was sub-optimal, but that does not mean that anyone else would have done better or that LvG/Woody were necessarily at fault for not having Plan B, C, …., Z (made public) or that the window was a disaster. In fact, it is very possible that United will do very well this season.. we are perennial slow starters… we beat City last year and did well against Top 8.
I will give LvG the benefit of the doubt on this one and I do not believe the transfer window was too bad. I think Woodward is learning, but is by no means the inexperienced novice put forth by the Madrid charlatans — the Viruses of Football…
If Fergie was in charge, you would expect siege mentality after the public Madrid assault. I think LvG will borrow a page from Fergie's playbook and hope to see the Virus get slammed with a transfer ban…
Optic – Sure. Well I think my headline sums up my opinion in 13 words 🙂
I don't think there's any chance of United breaking off ties with Madrid, not while Bale and (especially) Ronaldo might be available.
"I think LvG will borrow a page from Fergie's playbook and hope to see the Virus get slammed with a transfer ban…"
Aren't RM liable to the same kind of "transfer ban" that was implemented against Barcelona – one can only write "transfer ban" in italics since they purchased Suarez last year and Arda Turan and the guy from Valencia this summer even though they can't play before the new year. If anything has been farcical in this transfer season it's been the toothlessness of these "penalties".
I think its more a question of unfinished business rather than the wrong business. I don't have any complaints about any of the newcomers – even Martial who quite clearly is a huge talent in the making. I don't have any complaints about any of the departures either. Even Januzaj who, talented as he is, did not make the case effectively enough, when given the opportunity, for keeping him at OT as opposed to gaining regular first team experience elsewhere. I hope he returns a better player and much the wiser, ready to resume what should be a promising career with Utd.
The problem is that United could and should have bought at least two more players of experience and quality if they wanted to genuinely challenge for say the league title this season. With the numbers departing it is asking far too much for youngsters like Memphis and Martial particularly to hit the ground running and take the place by storm. In Martial's case it might take at least a couple of seasons for him to make the impact he seems to be more than capable of making eventually,
It seems to me that the unfinished business is probably only likely to be completed next summer and that Van Gaal will only then be able to say that he has a championship challenging team in what is almost certainly going to be his last season as manager. I just wonder if indeed this was always the intention – that LvG's basic remit was to restructure the squad over his three year tenure in time to attract and hand over to a successor who will then be in a good position to take it all a step further.
So, once again, a top four finish this season is about all we can realistically hope for. That objective will not be sufficient to protect LvG from mounting pressure, from the fans and media who expect more, if at the very least performances don't pick up in the near future, let alone next season. A trophy by way of one of hte deomestic cups might be a useful distraction but don't bet on it.
Gerald says:
Well well l agree with all opinions ,firstly Di Maria failed at United we all watched ,Van Persie has past his time,Nani was supposed to take over from Ronaldo never rose to that level,Hernandez has never been a starter always effective from the bench suddenly the press wants him to start,if he was a good starter Real would have definitely signed him ,Januaz is still young player to develop he has talent but still has to reach the level of Nemyer and ,Sterling ,The De Gea saga Real Mildred had all the time to sign De Gea in the world why wait for 12th Hour,then cry foul ,by not playing De Gea Man U was ready for life without him,so Perez is just covering for his failures,On Ed has done the best he can on the Market,Van Gaal has reduced the wage bill effectively why keep redundant and unhappy players,let's let the season roll see what happens ,remember Van Gaal has never failed before Barca and Bayer are still enjoy the his fruits even today .
" why keep redundant and unhappy players ?"
There's a lot of impatience – especially because LvG has given almost every single one of the "redundant and unhappy players" game-time. He has winnowed the pay-list but he has also sorted the squad so that he now has almost all of the guys he wants. I reckon that there's another couple to come: maybe a left-footed central defender like Aymeric Laporte and a real, "proper" centre forward like Robert Lewandowski or a quick-thinking forward like Thomas Muller (but not necessarily any of those three – I mean, really, did anyone have Matteo Darmian or Anthony Martial on their radar ?)
Wonder what our reactions would be if chelsea or any of our rivals have signed Martial now that we know Monaco had nocked back chelsea's £30m bid. ABUs complained about the fee yet they hailed the 49m paid for a 20yr old Sterling as City investing in the future.
Q: Wonder what our reactions would be if chelsea or any of our rivals have signed Martial ?
A: Who ?
Raphael C says:
I think fans and analyst sometimes get lost in playing fantasy football/football manager etc…
We have unquestionably strengthened our midfield core with Schneiderlin and Schweinsteiger. Darmian looks like an inspired acquisition. De Gea is staying and I have no doubt he'll be professional and return to top form. Memphis and Martial are exciting if big gambles that could come good spectacularly.
That is not a perfect summer, but it looks like a reasonable if not very good one. It's not like we fucked around all day and only got Feillaini last minute for twice the original price.
A title charge in the second season after the shambles of Moyes is unrealistic anyway. One or two more windows, hopefully addressing that GK, CB and CF positions, and then and only then probably we're realistically ready in the third year. This year should be about making sure we're properly back in the top three at the least, and the business done so far should probably just about do that, provided the attack as a whole and not just Rooney start to fire properly.
"It's not like we fucked around all day and only got Feillaini last minute for twice the original price."
— LOL 😀
I would personally satisfied with Top 3 and serious challenge (Semi-Final or better) in FA Cup or Champions League and play kids in Carling Cup while progressing a couple rounds.
Considering the number of competitions we are playing in this season, we are a bit short, especially after selling Chicharito and loaning out Januzaj. We will feel the effects during and after the festive season in December/January. I foresee a few injuries, and some panic buys again in January.
I think we have a decent squad, but LvG's tactics and emphasis on possession and control rather than creativity/unpredictability means that we will again struggle to finish 4th this season. Last season, we were certainly helped by Liverpool's implosion towards the end and our own winning run for a few games.
LvG has spent more than 200M, and plays a game that is absolutely boring to watch, and we struggle to beat teams that defend deep. This is not good, and I fail to understand what the 'philosophy' intends to achieve if we cannot beat teams like Newcastle at home.
Subterranean Steve says:
You've been reading my mind, Lucas. How do you do it?
I guess I only mentioned what's in the mind of most United fans, Steve 😀
ED, thanks for the bone which you threw us. Because of the international break, there's not been much to devour over the last couple of weeks and some of us appear to be on the verge of cannibalism.
Time to bring on the scousers and have a proper feeding frenzy.
Who is looking forward to Blind against Benteke this Saturday? Better start with Fellaini (can't believe I said that!), who can defend the corner kicks.
Smalling v Benteke would be fairer! Fellaini only if we are losing with 5 mins to go! (emergency plan B)
"Farcical" – would that change if the reports are true and UTD get DDG to sign a new contract ?
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/sep/11/david-de-gea-signs-four-year-contract-manchester-united
UTD 1; RM nil !!!!!
Surely the slapstick events of August 31st were not really part of a cunning plan masterminded by Ed 'Baldric' Woodward?
UTD 1; RM nil !
DDG signs new 5 year deal for 200,000 per week… well worth it @ 10,000,000/year.
De Gea will become the most expensive goalkeeper ever when Madrid sign him in May. 40-50M.
Great for us!
Sounds good but what if Madrid offer De Gea a back-handed sweetener of say 12 milllion to just see out his contract?
That's called tapping up a player right? Anyways, it's academic: he just signed a 4 year deal today.
Watch out for details on any release clause.
United wouldn't pay De Gea 200,000 per week (i.e., 10M/yr) if there is a small release clause. If there is one, it will be around 50m or more… but I don't believe United need to accept such terms. De Gea needed the contract to play, I am sure.
" De Gea needed the contract to play"
Another factor that has been given almost no attention is that his family includes his misses as well as his parents/siblings. Ms Edurne obviously had/has no great affection from my home town but, from what I understand – and, really, what any of us can "understand" in these matters is likely to be fairly marginal – his parents visited him regularly in M/C and were rather happy that he was out of the glare of the Marca-spotlight.
It would seem that, in addition, del Bosque's intervention – "he has to play to be picked for Spain in next year's Euros" – and the bungling by Florentino Perez (who tried to stare down LvG and EddieW) must have been a factor in making the move to Madrid less than completely appealing.
For DDG, home might not be where his heart is, but ten million quid a year can make it almost-OK. That ten million this year, ten million next year…… For that kind of money even I might consider a return to M/C !

Karl Schlosser (1807 nebo 1808 Praha – 2. března 1876 Praha nebo Vídeň), byl rakouský politik německé národnosti z Čech, v 2. polovině 19. století poslanec Říšské rady.

Biografie
Jeho otec Peter Schlosser byl významným pražským advokátem. Karl 28. června 1831 získal na Karlo-Ferdinandově univerzitě v Praze titul doktora práv. Působil jako advokát. Byl rovněž činný ve spolku na podporu sirotků a vdov po právnících. Byl velkostatkářem a od roku 1868 měl šlechtický titul svobodného pána. Byl tchánem poslance Jaroslava von Rilkeho.

V zemských volbách v březnu 1867 byl zvolen na Český zemský sněm za kurii velkostatkářskou, nesvěřenecké velkostatky. Zastupoval provídeňskou a centralistickou Stranu ústavověrného velkostatku. Zemský sněm ho 13. dubna 1867 zvolil i do Říšské rady. Do Říšské rady byl zemským sněmem opětovně delegován v roce 1871. 3. března 1871 složil slib. Opětovně ho zemský sněm do vídeňského parlamentu vyslal roku 1872. Složil slib 7. května 1872. Mezitím uspěl v zemských volbách v roce 1872, opět za velkostatkářskou kurii, nesvěřenecké velkostatky. Na mandát zemského poslance rezignoval roku 1873.

Zemřel ve Vídni v březnu 1876, po delší nemoci, kvůli které se stáhl z veřejného života. Tělo pak bylo převezeno k pohřbu do Prahy.

Jeho dcera Eleonore Schlosser byla manželkou politika Ernsta von Theumera.

the increase of experimental philosophy is producing urgent methodological questions for philosophers. Can findings from experimental experiences carry any importance for philosophy as a self-discipline? Can philosophical theorizing be better via attention of such reports?

Tackling significant topics, individuals speak about the new controversy over the measure to which instinct performs a tremendous position in philosophical technique and the characterization of the position of the experimental philosophy venture. in addition they examine the connection among so-called 'positive' and 'negative' initiatives and look at attainable hyperlinks among experimental and mainstream philosophical difficulties. shut dialogue of those topics contributes to the general objective of the amount: an research into the present importance and attainable destiny functions of experimental paintings in philosophy.

Q: Jenkins Pipeline - Start a stage 2 hours after the 1st one In a declarative pipeline parallel block, it is possible to specify 2nd stage to start with a lag of 2 hours after the first one has started?
Let's say I have 2 stages as below:
parallel {
    stage('A') {
        steps {
            script {
                sh do something
            }
        }
    }
    stage('B') {
        steps {
            script {
                sh do something
            }
        }
    }
}

When the job is kicked off, stage A starts. 2 hours later, Stage B would start. Is this possible?

A: You can use "sleep" within a stage to pause its execution.
stage("B") {
    steps {
        echo "Pausing stage B"
        sleep(time: 2, unit: "HOURS")
    }
}

Q: Can we not determine the minimum and maximum value of a function by just obtaining the value of the function at the critical points? Can we do the above or is it neccessary to find the sign of the second derivative. I find no problem with any of the above but the answer of the following question left me confused.
"The real number x when added to its inverse gives the minimum value of the sum when x equals?"
The given answer is 1.
The critical points are 1 and -1.
The value of the function at 1 is 2 and that at -1 is -2.
So the sum is minimum at -1 but if we check the sign of second derivative, the answer is 1.
Where am I going wrong?

A: The function is discontinuous (at $x=0$).  The local minimum at $x=1$ is greater than the local maximum at $x=-1$.  You may want to graph the function.

A: Your statement only works when the function is continuous in a closed interval. Otherwise you have to use the first derivative or second derivative test.
Here is a picture of your function:

A: $$ y = x + 1/x$$
$$ \frac{dy}{dx}=1-\frac{1}{x^2}$$
has extrema at $$ x = \pm 1 $$
$$ \frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=+\frac{2}{x^3}$$
At $ x = +1, $ it is a local minimum.
At $ x = -1, $ it is a local maximum, please note carefully.
Where is the confusion? A drawing also confirms all the above.
The second derivative test helps verify what you assume you know by intuition.


Had our first B.B. game tonite with New Cambria. I played whole game. Girls lost – 32-34 – Boys won by 1 pt. Dale was at the game & he brought me home. Today is my 16th birthday & he got me a pretty compact & a record. somewhere along the way.
I see being on first team in basketball has its advantages. She got to play the entire game, and it's their first one. Too bad they lost, although not by much! Apparently, the boy's game was a close one, too.

Q: How to create a new system or board to be emulated by QEMU I am new to QEMU, but to support a system modeling project, I try to figure out how to emulate a new ARM microcontroller(M33 based) SOC which is not on the supported system list. I have checked on the QEMU documentation: https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/about/index.html but was not able to find directions to construct and add a new system model. I would appreciate very much if someone can point me to the right documentation, or suggest steps I can follow to generate the new model for emulation.

A: I would highly suggest using Renode rather than Qemu as it's better suited for microcontrollers and it's well documented and actively maintained on GitHub.

A: There is no documentation for how to write new machine models for QEMU. The best advice is to look at the source code for an existing machine type that seems similar to the one you want to add. Avoid looking at machine types that have been added to QEMU a long time ago -- they are often written in an older style or using older APIs which are no longer recommended for new code.
As a very rough rule of thumb, you should assume that a new machine model is about as much effort as porting an operating system to that new hardware. (Roughly, a device model is about as much code as a device driver.) Depending on how much functionality you need, you may be able to leave some or many devices in your SoC unimplemented -- the absolute minimum is usually something like a UART and a timer. You'll need documentation of the SoC (technical reference manual or similar, with detailed descriptions of the devices down to the register level).
(Out of curiosity, what is the M33-based SoC?)

Zahra Schreiber Biography, Wiki, Relationship With Seth Rollins
Zahra Schreiber is an American model and professional wrestler who was previously under contract with the WWE. She made her official debut as a ring spokeswoman in a live show in 2015 and was later officially hired as manager for wrestlers such as Sami Callihan, Arik Cannon, Nick Brubaker, Donovan Danhausen, and Ruff Crossing.
Schreiber also stood in the corner of Aria Blake's match against Morgana on the ring. Throughout her time with NXT she had several small appearances at wrestling matches, including dressing up as a skeleton to play the role of one of Adam Rose's Rosebuds.
Zahra Schreiber Biography
Zahra (zare-uh) Brittney Schreiber was born on April 18, 1988, in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA. She once revealed that she was descended from Cherokee descent and that her mother, Gina James, was a former country singer. Schreiber attended the House of Truth Wrestling School, which is run by Truth Martini and Jimmy Jacobs, and graduated to pursue her dream career in the wrestling world. A dream that came to an end when she was fired from the WWE on August 31, 2015.
Wrestling Career
Zahra Schreiber debuted in 2015 with DreamWave Wrestling, but that was after her public stage appearance in LaSalle. Her first official wrestling match with DreamWave was later announced to celebrate her participation in the Survival of the Fittest on November 7, 2015.
Schreiber had teamed up with co-wrestlers like Danhausen, Crossing, Cannon, and Brubaker to win against Darin Corbin, Marshe Rockett, Prince Mustafa Ali, Mike Hartenbower, and Waylon Beck in a ten-man elimination match.

Release from WWE NXT
Schreiber was released on August 31, 2015, when photos of Nazi memorabilia that she had shared on social media with her then-fiancé Chad Ruglig appeared in her home in Saginaw. She published a statement on her Instagram to explain her site, saying that her interest in the Holocaust came from people who were against Nazism.
In her own words, she said: "The WWE made the decision to dismiss me from my contract because of posts I held in the social media years ago, long before I was even employed by them. Zahra Schreiber mentioned that working at WWE was her dream job. She accepted to take responsibility for her actions and to apologize to those who might have been offended by her position.
Schreiber also made clear her position on the controversial post, saying that she wanted to make it very clear that she is in no way an anti-Semite, nor tolerates anti-Semitism. Had one looked deeper into her post, one would have noticed, according to her, that the photo also showed Marlene Dietrich, a Polish actress who stood up against Nazism and fought for the oppressed in the Second World War.
The budding wrestler explained that the photos and relics were nothing more than a story to her.
Even though it may seem as if everything she had dreamed and worked for has disappeared, Schreiber said it did not define her life. Rather, she would learn, move on, and become a much better person.
Zahra Schreiber Relationship With Seth Rollins
Schreiber met with Seth Rollins before a scandal that probably triggered the relationship to the rock hit. The two have been together for a year but decided to end it quietly and she moved into a new apartment.
Their relationship was seen as controversial from the beginning and it was expected that it would fail. Rollins had a long-time girlfriend, Leighla Schultz, whom he cheated on with Schreiber. While both could have gotten away with it, the despised lover retaliated and published a nude photo of both of them on Rollins' Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook accounts. Neither Schreiber, Rollins nor Schultz ever explained the scandal. It was reported that the sexting photos would have been a career ripper for Rollins, but the WWE crowned him champion the following month.

Zahra Schreiber, however, was not so lucky, apparently, the Nazi iconography in her social media and other supposedly outrageous material was too heartbreaking to deal with. While she was promptly fired, Rollins stood by her in the months that followed, and it seemed as if their relationship was normal. Schreiber occasionally shared posts on social issues related to her happiness. But in the end, they separated.
Before she was with Rollins, Zahra Schreiber was engaged to Chad Ruhling, a singer of the metalcore band Fallen Dreams. The duo was together for eight years before they broke off their engagement.

East Berkshire College was a large project to complete in a short space of time, involving work throughout an occupied education environment, with shut-down periods kept to a minimum and scheduled for holiday periods. It was a mix of existing and new build locations, including a sports hall and gym, reception and hospitality areas, classrooms, changing facilities, toilets and kitchens. BBS were instructed to design, build and install every M&E aspect of the college with the exception of the gas supply for the science labs. All staff were DBS checked.


UNCAGE is the new label project from Norman Methner alongside Italian Marco Faraone who is known for releases on Adam Beyer's Drumcode, Josh Wink's Ovum and Shlomi Aber's Be As One amongst many others. Off to a strong start UNCAGE has already featured music from Marco himself, Eduardo De La Calle and remixes from Radio Slave and Markus Suckut.
The third release is a tidy various offering simply called V1 and goes into some classy, dubby, hypnotic takes from Parisian duo and Concrete residents Kas:st, Modig, Hertz Collision and Black Stone.
The track we selected for this DT:Premiere comes from Modig and marks the first ever outing from the Berlin based DJ/Producer. "What You Want" is a stripped back masterpiece with a rolling groove that's in essence fun, but is no doubt a serious dancefloor heavyweight.

Apple cider is one of the favorite drinks in the world when it comes to toast on special occasions, such as Christmas. It is the drink par excellence, next to champagne. For the after-dinner special meals and family events for its delicious and characteristic bittersweet taste and its low alcoholic gradation. From it you get one of the most used salad dressings in the world, it is the apple cider vinegar, and it is not for less, its flavor, aroma and qualities make it an elixir. As the name implies, apple cider vinegar is obtained by fermenting the sugar from the apple sumo or from the apple cider.
The fermentation of the apple sugars can be achieved by the action of the yeasts existing in the fruit, which is known as Natural Fermentation or by the centrifugation, pasteurization or elimination of the yeasts, techniques known as Fermentation by selected yeasts, technique used on an industrial scale. In the industrial production of apple cider vinegar, after fermentation lasting 4 to 5 days, it goes through a resting cycle where the alcoholic fermentation ends and the sugar disappears completely. The resulting cider is separated from the solid particles deposited in the bottom, since these can disrupt the acetic fermentation of the cider, which is nothing else than the transformation of alcohol into acetic acid, the main responsible for the flavor and aroma of this formidable product. After this fermentation, the vinegar is stored for 4 to 6 months in wooden barrels to develop flavors, to then be filtered again and bottled for distribution. But, since we do not live in an industry and in spite of the benefits, most of us are only simple connoisseurs of apple cider vinegar. Sometimes it is difficult to get it, either because of its price or because the supermarket in your locality does not offer it, and since naturally obtained is always a super healthy option we bring you a recipe so you can prepare it at home and take advantage of all its qualities and benefits, mainly those related to digestion and weight loss.
Although many people usually call it apple´s vinegar, the correct name is apple cider vinegar, because it is obtained from the fermentation of the apples before being used. This step is to prevent the spread of bacteria.
Reduces high cholesterol levels: helps reduce high cholesterol levels and triglycerides, in the case of high cholesterol helps reduce the presence of LDL cholesterol commonly known as bad cholesterol, which is a lipoprotein. This is responsible for bringing cholesterol from the liver to the tissues of the body. Apple cider vinegar helps prevent it from accumulating in the arteries by stimulating the production of HDL cholesterol, or good cholesterol, which sweeps excess cholesterol from the tissues.
A great place to purchase one of the best apple cider vinegar out there is at Omninatural's online retail store.
Reduces blood pressure: helps control blood pressure levels, optimal consumption in people with high blood pressure by breaking down deposits of phlegm and fat that exert pressure against the arterial walls leading to better general circulation. Reduce glucose levels: helps to effectively control blood glucose levels. One theory states that the acetic acid in apple cider vinegar reduces the rate at which carbohydrates are converted to glucose.
Apple cider vinegar should never be used as a substitute for a medication prescribed by a doctor, in the medical cases described above, but as an additional natural option. The apple cider vinegar has a strong and intensely acid taste, for this reason, it should not be taken pure, but, to take advantage of all its benefits and properties, it should always be diluted in water. In fact, used as a dressing, we do not consume it raw because it mixes with the properties of the other ingredients in salads.
Prolonged consumption of apple cider vinegar can cause low potassium levels and lower bone density. So, if low potassium levels are part of your medical history or you suffer from osteoporosis, consult your doctor before consuming it. With all this, the consumption of apple cider vinegar is ideal to maintain good health, in addition to that we make sure to use a 100% natural product, while we prepare our meals with a delicious product. Of easy preparation in our homes or buying it in the store of our convenience. The apple cider vinegar is definitely an excellent option for our meals and to improve the taste of them.

Ted Lasso (TV Series)
I didn't think I will like a TV show about Football, one of the many games I have hardly watched, but after starting to see Ted Lasso on Apple TV +, I had to binge-watch the entire season 1 in two days. It was that good. Jason Sudeikis has done the title role of Ted Lasso very well; it was a delight to watch him.
It had all the right ingredients for a TV series: an underdog sports team, a bit of British humour, and inspiring but down-to-earth coach who has absolutely no idea on the game he is coaching, one divorced couple, another divorcing, a broken relationship which leads to a new one, and more.
The show worked for me, as there was only a little about the football game that gets covered, I was able to follow easily. The story and plots were simple but effective. In most episodes, the screenplay moves at a brisk pace to cover the planned plot. There were no sub-plots or distractions, and only a few lead characters who have done their roles well. The series treats the viewers as smart; it doesn't elaborate on backstories and assumes we will follow the story from the hints in the dialogues. There are no flashbacks on Ted's broken marriage, the team captain's speech to the press, or on Rupert's (team owner Rebecca's ex-husband) past infidelity and so on. Also, the show doesn't show players miraculously winning or losing suddenly – it was mostly realistic.
There were many tiny humour bits throughout, like Ted's disgust for English Tea, his secret recipe Biscuits for the Boss, the superstitions of the two coaches and so on.
Footnote: Watching on Apple TV+ was not as easy as Netflix or Amazon Prime Video. Apple has a lot of work to do on improving its player app.
Season 2, Episode 10: 27/Sep/2021
Most shows lose their steam in the second season, some regain them in the third – But other than a couple of episodes, Ted Lasso maintains the tempo and keeps you engaged. It was not surprising that the show won the 2021 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series, Best Actor award for Jason Sudeikis and other lead actors. I thoroughly enjoyed the recent episode (10) titled "No Weddings and a Funeral" (S02E10), those who haven't you should start watching the show.
Season 2, Episode 12 (Finale): 8/Oct/2021
A perfect finale for Season 2. The new arcs that had been created in this serious and I am curious on how these will get developed in subsequent seasons. An adversary to the charming Ted was great. And to think till a few episodes before, none of us would've guessed who that will be!

"You know, farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil, and you're a thousand miles from a corn field," said President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1956.
That pretty much describes the bureaucracy at the Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C. Although the big building on Independence Avenue is full of smart and well-meaning people, there's no getting around the fact that they're far removed from the regular business of farming.
It doesn't have to be that way – at least not according to a couple of Republican senators, Josh Hawley of Missouri and Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee. They've proposed moving the Department of Agriculture and nine other federal agencies outside the D.C. beltway and into the heart of America.
It's a thought-provoking idea and it reminds me of what Norman Borlaug, the father of Green Revolution, said on his deathbed: "Take it to the farmer."
What he was saying is that if we seek excellence in food security, everyone in the food chain must collaborate with the men and women who work the land. That's what Dr. Borlaug did as a scientist who brought new technology to farms, boosting food production so much in the 1950s and 1960s that he received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1970.
The mission of taking it to the farmer continues today, involving not just the scientists who innovate but also regulators whose rules and mandates impact what happens to farmers a thousand miles away.

The Hawley-Blackburn bill calls for moving the Department of Agriculture into the middle of the country: Missouri. Other departments would go elsewhere: Commerce to Pennsylvania, Education to Tennessee, Energy to Kentucky, Health and Human Services to Indiana, Housing and Urban Development to Ohio, Interior to New Mexico, Labor to West Virginia, Transportation to Michigan, and Veterans Affairs to South Carolina.
They wouldn't relocate to just anywhere within these states, but rather into economically depressed regions. The bill's sponsors pitch their legislation as a kind of jobs program. They call it the HIRE Act, which stands for "Helping Infrastructure Restore the Economy."
That's fine, but the main benefit would come from putting regulators into proximity with the people whose lives and businesses they regulate. It makes sense for the Department of Agriculture to have its headquarters in a big farm state such as Missouri, and it also makes sense to move Interior to New Mexico, where it's closer to the western lands that occupy so much of its time.
Under this plan, federal regulators would become more likely to have firsthand knowledge and even experience with the policies they adopt and enforce: An official at Agriculture will have grown up on a farm or maybe live on one, a bureaucrat at Interior will be married to a rancher, and a deputy assistant secretary at Transportation will have a brother who works on an automotive assembly line.

This would be a government 'of the people.'something that is increasingly lacking in the administrative centers of Washington, D.C.
Before the advent of air travel and telecommunications, I understand how it made sense to cluster federal agencies in Washington. In the 21st century, however, technology enables us to do so much more – and to take advantage of a truly federal system, which seeks to disperse the power of government.
The Trump administration appears to understand the principle: The headquarters of the Bureau of Land Management soon will move to Grand Junction, Colorado, and a couple of the Department of Agriculture's research agencies are shifting to Kansas City, Missouri.
The Hawley-Blackburn bill could attract bipartisan support. Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, for example, also has proposed moving agencies out of Washington. There are also several liberal-leaning think tanks and journalists who have expressed favor for the concept.
So this creative idea deserves serious consideration and debate, along with another line from Eisenhower. "The proper role of government," he said, "is that of partner with the farmer – never his master."
Let's seize a chance to take it to the farmer, as well as everybody else who has a stake in the decisions that we ought to make closer to the people.

Ask Anything: Why Is Picking Up A New Language Easier As A Kid?
Short answer: You're less distracted by your native tongue.
By Daniel Engber
When learning languages, the earlier the better.Illustration by Jason Schneider
In 1967, neuroscientist Eric Lenneberg laid out his argument for a "critical period" in language acquisition: Beyond a certain age, he said, and without the normal stimulation, a person could never really develop a natural way of speaking. Then he added, almost as a throwaway: The same applies to second languages. If you don't start learning them during your youth, he suggested, you'll be doomed to second-rate pronunciation.
Studies found that Lenneberg was on to something with the latter point. When scientists compared the English skills of immigrants who arrived in the U.S. at different ages, the ones who showed up earlier in their lives seemed to have a clear advantage, even if they'd spent the same amount of time immersed in English overall. That's not to say that child learners end up with perfect second-language skills: Some who picked up English very young still grew up with certain linguistic quirks. But as a rule they were much better at pronunciation than their older peers.
Why is that the case? Some have argued that a child's brain has special qualities that make it more adaptable or nimble. We can't rule this theory out, says James Flege, professor emeritus at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, but several other conjectures might explain the data just as well. Flege believes children have an easier time with second languages because their minds are not as cluttered with a first one. The more trained we are to native vowel sounds, the more automatic those sounds become, and the harder it is to produce strange new ones. It's like trying to learn tennis when you've spent your life playing badminton, he explains. The movements are different, but they're close enough that you might be tempted to substitute one for the other. "It's so simple that very few people understand it," Flege says. "The biggest difference between a young child acquiring a first language and an older child acquiring a second language is that the first child doesn't have another language to compete with."
It's also possible that children simply have more and better sources of input when they're learning languages. When older immigrants arrive, they may socialize with fellow speakers of their native tongue. They may also be distracted by the necessity of working for a living. But young immigrants typically go to schools where they're forced to interact with English-speaking children, and they can focus on their studies. They're also given more leeway on their efforts to express themselves. While an adult with meager English skills might provoke annoyance or derision, "no one expects a child to be perfect," says Flege. "The learning situation provokes less anxiety. Kids get a lot of credit just for trying."
