The new imprint is called Palm Tree Records.
Sony Music Entertainment has entered into a “worldwide talent development partnership” with producer/DJ Kygo (a.k.a. Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll) and his manager Myles Shear, it was announced Thursday. Under the strategic agreement, Sony Music, Kygo, and Shear are launching Palm Tree Records, a new label imprint focused on identifying and cultivating emerging artistry in dance and electronic music, according to the announcement.
The label is part of a broader strategy by Kygo and Shear (pictured above, right and left, respectively) to develop a full-service system for breaking new artists, which also includes their newly launched artist-management company.
While the company is focusing on management and the label at the moment, Shear said he envisions it getting into television, headphones and content creation, among other areas.

 What is the difference between Baseball Reference's WAR and Fangraph's WAR?

Byron Buxton is having himself a very good month of August, now up to .330/.362/.649 through 27 games in the month. Some credit a new toe tap while others note that he had a very similar hot stretch last season. But whether or not you reference his 4.3 bWAR, 2.8 fWAR, or simply the eye test as he plays center field, one thing has become apparent this season; Byron Buxton is comfortably in the 10% of all baseball players.
But Buxton’s profile is an interesting one. His batting line on the season is .249/.310/.402 and those numbers are… not very good, to say the least. In fact, they’re very close to teammate Eduardo Escobar, who has hit .252/.312/.402 on the season and is a 0.4-0.7 WAR player depending on where you look. If you’d like to isolate Buxton’s season after his horrific 4-49 start to the season, fine, I’ll play that game, even though ALL players would look better if you remove their worst 16% of the season. After Buxton’s 4-49 start to the season, he has hit .275/.338/.449, a line similar to Jedd Gyorko’s .272/.341/.469 line.
These numbers are better. It’s better than most baseball players could do in a season. But Jedd Gyorko hardly comes to mind when people brainstorm the best hitters in the league. What separates players like Buxton and Andrelton Simmons is their defense. If you ask a baseball fan who the best defensive shortstop is, the answer should be Andrelton Simmons. If you ask a baseball fan who the best defensive center fielder is, the answer should be Byron Buxton (Kevin Kiermaier would also be an acceptable answer). But, if everyone is in agreement that Buxton, Simmons, Kiermaier and other players around the league are bar none the best defensive players in the game today, why can’t Baseball Reference and Fangraphs agree on a WAR total for these players? Byron Buxton, for example, has a 4.3 bWAR and a 2.8 fWAR, as noted above. Although there are a lot differences within the two WAR calculations, the answer in Buxton’s case (along with several others) is, unfortunately, very simple: defensive runs saved (DRS) vs. Ultimate Zone Rating (UZR).
These are huge differences, with Buxton, Simmons, and Kiermaier all varying by 1.5+ WAR each between the two sites. The reason for the discrepancies lies in DRS and UZR, as Baseball Reference uses DRS in their WAR calculation and Fangraph uses UZR in their WAR calculation.
Buxton, Simmons, and Kiermaier all have a much higher DRS than they do UZR, which explains their much higher bWAR. Xander Bogaerts, on the other hand, has a much higher UZR than he does DRS, and wouldn’t you know it, his fWAR is much higher. And I know what you’re thinking: There’s no way two defensive statistics that vary so heavily could influence WAR that much. And, again unfortunately, you would be wrong.
This is a plot of all 127 qualified position players with the exception of catchers, since there is no UZR for catchers (that’s right, Fangraphs doesn’t even calculate WAR consistently for all position players). Along the x-axis is the player’s difference in DRS and UZR and the y-axis is the difference in that player’s bWAR and fWAR.
When I began plotting these points, I knew there would be some correlation between the variance in defensive statistics and the variance in WAR totals, but this blew me away. The correlation is huge! This season, with an R-squared value of 0.805, over 80% of the variance in (non-catcher) position player WAR between Baseball Reference and Fangraphs can be explained by the variance in DRS and UZR. That’s incredible.
And this (very slowly) leads me to my point; defensive statistics are, in their current state, extremely incomplete thanks to a relative lack of data availability. UZR can vary drastically year-to-year, takes something like 3+ season to actually stabilize, and still “does not necessarily tell you how he actually played just as it does not necessarily tell you what his true talent is” (Fangraphs). DRS also has it’s flaws, including this kind of funny shift error that caused Brett Lawrie to lead the league in DRS in 2012. So why, with the knowledge that these two defensive statistics are incomplete, untrustworthy, and incredibly variable, are we accepting an equally variable WAR as gospel?
I think WAR is an incredible idea, and it has improved drastically over the short time that it has been prominent. In my lifetime, I’m fairly sure WAR will iterate to a point which you can add up all the WAR on every team and almost nail the team wins (or pythag team wins) perfectly. In fact, it does a pretty good job at it right now. But the fact of the matter is this; DRS and UZR are extremely far from perfect. If they were perfect, they would agree numerically, and that is something that will most like never happen. Thus, by extension, WAR is far from perfect as well. And as long as these two, imperfect, defensive statistics CAN cause WAR to differ so greatly, it will also always be an imperfect statistic.

 What is the Trump Administration's plan to limit migration to the United States?

The cartoonish nature of The Trump Era once again throws things into sharp relief.
Immigration hardliners are always quick to say their beef is with illegal immigration. But in all things, The Trump Era turns the subtext to text. From the jump, the Trump administration proposed cutting the number of legal immigrants the country will accept in half. Trump has unleashed ICE, with the immediate consequence that deportations of noncriminal immigrants—undocumented people who have not been convicted of a crime, and plenty of whom haven't been charged—skyrocketed in 2017 to double the previous year.
One of the great injustices of the "zero-tolerance" policy, beyond the barbaric separation of young children from their parents, was its flouting of asylum law. Under international law and treaties to which the U.S. is a signatory, people have a legal right to present themselves for asylum status--essentially, to claim they are refugees and have that claim adjudicated in court. The Trump administration flouted this by restricting the criteria for seeking asylum to exclude people fleeing gang and domestic violence—common claims among Central American migrants—and refusing them entry to border checkpoints, where they must present themselves under the law to claim asylum.
The Trump administration is expected to issue a proposal in coming weeks that would make it harder for legal immigrants to become citizens or get green cards if they have ever used a range of popular public welfare programs, including Obamacare...The move, which would not need Congressional approval, is part of White House senior adviser Stephen Miller's plan to limit the number of migrants who obtain legal status in the U.S. each year.
Ah, yes, Stephen Miller, the Santa Monica Gargamel who fought like hell for the policy of tearing kids away from their mothers and tells Definitely True stories about throwing away $80 of sushi as a matter of principle. One can hardly wait to see what other gears are in motion on this plan to wage war on legal migration. (Immigration is that thing some might recognize as the defining and singularly unifying feature of the American experience. Except for Native Americans, who might now wish they'd limited immigration before the Stephen Millers came along.) The phrase "pulling up the ladder behind you" doesn't seem to do it justice.
But what exactly is involved here?
So even if it's just an immigrant's child who uses benefits—a child who may be an American citizen—the parent, a legal immigrant, can be penalized. Across the board, the policy could mean forcing people to choose between food and healthcare for their family or a future as a U.S. citizen. According to Stephen Miller, you can't have both. This is a willful attempt to immiserate people and try to force them out of the country—just as the family separation policy put us in a contest of cruelty with Central American drug gangs.
This policy could impact 20 million immigrants or more, some of whom could be rejected despite earning 250 percent of the poverty level.
Of course, this is all borne up in the modern conservative notion that you cannot both accept government assistance and contribute to society—a notion that never seems to extend to government programs like Medicare--though some Republicans want to cut that too--or farm subsidies.
But more than that, it reflects the Trump administration's commitment to keeping The Other out, and to do so in an exercise of performative cruelty that gets The Base going. That's why the administration is also moving to revoke "temporary protected status" for half a million people who came here fleeing chaos and oppression in their home countries—people like Louis Charles, who came after a catastrophic earthquake decimated Haiti—despite the fact that research suggests the move will actually lead to more illegal immigration. The Department of Homeland Security told the White House as much, but it won't matter. More people will come here in the end? Just deport them, too.
The Trump administration could potentially waste billions of dollars on a border wall because it failed to fully account for factors like varying terrain and land ownership along the Southwest border, according to a new report.
The report, conducted by the Government Accountability Office, found that Customs and Border Protection, the agency responsible for construction of the wall, did not consider the cost of building along each segment of the border, which can vary depending on factors such as topography and land ownership.
The report also found that the agency selected locations for barriers without fully assessing where they were needed to prevent illegal border crossings.
This is unmitigated gobbledegook, except for the claims up top. No serious person believes The Wall will stop the flow of illegal drugs, which can easily travel via truck or air or tunnel. Many, including border patrol agents, don't see The Wall as especially key to slowing migration. It's a symbol, a big middle finger to The Outside, a monument to the enduring power of White America. That might be why Trump seems to think it may be the one campaign promise he'll pay for not keeping. That's surely the reason he now lies about it at every rally, telling the hooting and hollering faithful that construction has already begun. It hasn't, but it doesn't seem to matter. Nothing seems to matter in an authoritarian movement, except how it makes you feel.

 Explain the current dispute between Christian groups and St. Paul's Cathedral in London.

Christian activists have promised a non-violent 'ring of prayer' to defend protesters camped outside St Paul's Cathedral if eviction threats are realised.
A majority in the Chapter at St Paul's remain intent on seeking an injunction to break up the protest, and the Bishop of London has issued an ultimatum to Occupy the London Stock Exchange (OLSX) to leave the site in exchange for a discussion on terms determined by himself and City of London figures.
In response, Christian campaigners say that it is their duty to stand up for peaceful protest, economic justice, and a Gospel vocation to offer sanctuary, not eviction.
"Jesus threw the money changers out of the Temple, but St Paul's wants to throw out those who are criticising the money changers," one protester told Ekklesia. "This is a shameful betrayal of the Christian message."
Christian groups publicly siding with the Occupy London protesters include one of the oldest Christian charities, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, and the oldest national student organisation, the Student Christian Movement, together with the religion and society thinktank Ekklesia, Christianity Uncut, the Zacchaeus 2000 Trust, the Christian magazine Third Way, London Catholic Worker, the Society of Sacramental Socialists and Quaker groups.
A recent statement of solidarity declared: "As Christians, we stand alongside people of all religions who are resisting economic injustice with active nonviolence. The global economic system perpetuates the wealth of the few at the expense of the many. It is based on idolatrous subservience to markets. We cannot worship both God and money."
Jonathan Bartley, co-director of Ekklesia said: "There are some very unhappy people within the Church of England. The protesters seem to articulate many of the issues that the church has paid lip-service to. Many people are disillusioned with the position St Paul's has adopted. To evict rather than offer sanctuary is contrary to what many people think the church is all about. The whole thing has been a car crash."
Meanwhile, the Observer newspaper reports that Shami Chakrabarti, director of the civil rights group Liberty, is seeking to mediate in the dispute.
She says that protesters are eager to seek a resolution. St Paul's has so far only acknowledged her offer. The City of London Corporation, which appears determined to press a prosecution and eviction, has apparently not responded.

 Respond in 214 words. Write a short biography of Chuck Schumer.

November 14 2016, 9:14 p.m.
Schumer, who’s just about to turn 66, grew up in Brooklyn and went to the same high school as Bernie Sanders. Then their lives diverged: Schumer, the smartiest of the smartypants, got a perfect score on the SATs and then went to Harvard and Harvard Law School. He was elected to the New York State Assembly at 23, the U.S. Congress at 29, and the U.S. Senate at 47. He’s never had any adult job outside elected office.
Perhaps worst of all, Schumer gave Anthony Weiner his start, first hiring him on his staff, then encouraging him to run for office and then endorsing Weiner in the race for Schumer’s seat when Schumer was running for the Senate in 1998. Thanks, Chuck.
Are there any positive things about Chuck Schumer? Well … he did vote against NAFTA in 1993, and while he’s supported other trade deals since, he made negative noises about the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
Also, he’s a talented matchmaker with as many as 11 marriages to his credit. And he’s the second cousin once removed of Amy Schumer, which you might see as good or bad, depending.

 Describe your experience visiting Valencia, Spain.

Valencia (Spanish: València) is the third largest city in Spain located on the banks of the Turia, on the east coast of the Iberian Peninsula, fronting the Gulf of Valencia on the Mediterranean Sea.
It was founded by the Romans in the 2nd century BC, under the name Valentia Edetanorum.
It was held by the Moors from the 8th to the 13th century.
Its Old Town is one of the largest in Spain, with approximately 169 ha (420 ac).
UNESCO has recognised the Silk Exchange market (La Llotja de la Seda), erected in early Valencian Gothic style, as a World Heritage Site.
It is a bilingual city: Valencian and Spanish are the two official languages.
Have you ever been to Valencia? Feel free to post a comment below.
I've been to Barcelona but never to Valencia. This is much more historic looking than the unusual Barcelona city. And I'm always looking for a UNESCO world heritage site!
Thanks for sharing, we are visiting Spain next year and will definitely be adding Valencia to our list!
Valencia is a beautiful city, loved exploring the historic sites. The architecture, history and the modern monuments, they are all incredible. Gorgeous pictures, thanks for sharing the interesting facts.
I've seen pictures of Valencia but not the street arts you have in this post. They are beautiful. The Turia fountain looks spectacular. Awwwwn, the stray cat is a celebrity cat. Made it to your blog. It looks like I'll have to always look up when in Valencia, tall buildings everywhere. Nice pictures you have here.
Valencia looks so beautiful and looks like you had some gorgeous weather. I would love to see the Silk Exchange market and see why its a UNESCO Heritage Site. Did you go?
So interesting to learn more about Valencia! I had no idea that is was founded by the Romans in the second century BC, and that the Old Town in Valencia is one of the biggest in Spain. The architecture of the buildings look gorgeous, I hope to visit one day!
What a charming city in Spain! I would love to explore the next time I'm in the country. I love the old world architectures - so much character. A visit to the Silk Exchange market is a must!
It is very interesting to learn about Valencia's history. Imagine having two language in one city?! And the whole view is splendid sight. I would love to visit Valencia someday.

 Describe the themes of Ram Dass's talk on the roots of suffering.

In this talk from 1994, Ram Dass investigates the many roots of suffering. And how our perception shapes our experience of that suffering.
Ram Dass shares the predicament he found himself in when he realized that even though he was so spiritually connected and in bliss. He was still suffering. Ram Dass explores the way people find themselves in this kind of suffering. That comes when we run from our problems and fears. Choosing instead to stay high on the divine.
How do you respond to the immensity of the suffering around you? In a way that doesn’t close you down? Ram Dass discusses ways that we can meet the suffering in our communities. With compassion and equanimity, instead of armoring our hearts to that suffering.
Ram Dass talks about the judging mind. And the difficult teaching he was given from Maharaj-ji around the perfect nature of all things. Including suffering. He looks at the ways we cut ourselves off when we veil ourselves to suffering.
The Roots of Suffering (43:30) – What about the suffering that comes with old age? Ram Dass explores how much of the suffering that comes with old age comes from our mind’s perception of suffering.

 Summarize the remarks of Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin regarding the U.S. dollar.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin says a statement he made earlier this week that shook the dollar was taken out of context.
He says he isn't concerned with where the currency is in the near term but believes a strong dollar is better in the long run.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, under fire for comments he made earlier this week seemingly advocating a weak dollar, told CNBC on Friday the U.S. has a long-term interest in a strong greenback.
The dollar earlier had hit a three-week low on comments Mnuchin made Wednesday that the soft greenback would be better for the United States. Since then, he and President Donald Trump have said those remarks were taken out of context. Mnuchin and Trump spoke as they attended the World Economic Forum in Davos.
"I made the comment two days ago in a press gaggle in the morning. What I said was actually very even-handed and consistent with what I said before," Mnuchin said Friday in an interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box." He added a strong "long-term dollar" is in the country's best interests.
However, comments from the president and Treasury secretary did little to boost the dollar. In early trading, the currency was down about 0.4 percent against a basket of its global competitors, though it was off the lows of the session.
Mnuchin's comments were nothing terribly new from the administration. Trump himself has said in the past that he prefers a weak greenback.
For his part, the Treasury secretary repeated that he is not trying to influence the currency markets.
"Had the news printed my entire transcript the first time as opposed to just taking out one little point and kind of imply that I was trying to talk down the dollar, which I wasn't doing," he said. "As a matter of fact I was very clear in my open, saying the dollar is the most liquid trading market in the world, and where the dollar is in the short term is not of concern to us, and we respect that the market sets where the dollar is."
He added that it is not the policy of the administration to intervene in the currency markets.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch strategists also think the markets misinterpreted Mnuchin's comments and should be focusing on what he said about the long-term dollar direction rather than the short-term market vagaries.
"Mnuchin's statements, when taken in their entirety, reaffirm the existing strong USD policy by linking dollar value to relative US economic fundamentals ... while implicitly acknowledging a more competitive and thus growth-supportive USD valuation situation vs. this time last year. Recent comments by President Trump would seem to confirm our read," BofAML said in a note to clients.

 Have you heard about the First Amendment Battle on college campuses?

Roadblocks to college graduation can take on various forms, whether it be financial, academic, personal, or otherwise. But for Robert Dunn, it was his own university that set a roadblock squarely in his path.
Robert, a student at Iowa State University, is a Christian as well as the founder and president of a conservative student group on campus, ISU Young Americans for Freedom (YAF). And he was looking forward to graduating.
Then, earlier this year, university officials at Iowa State University sent out an email to the student body, announcing a new mandatory online training program regarding the university’s nondiscrimination policies and procedures. The training required students to pledge that they understood and would comply with university speech policies. As Robert went through the course, he realized that he could not make the pledge.
The university was asking Robert to sign away his free speech in order to graduate.
The university policies he would be forced to pledge compliance to expressly violate the First Amendment. One policy admits that “First Amendment protected speech activities” may constitute punishable harassment “depending on the circumstances.” Of course, since the policy doesn’t identify the “circumstances,” it just means that ISU administrators can limit “First Amendment protected speech activities” on their own whim.
With other YAF chapters across the country facing censorship by their universities – including this one where faculty and administrators tried to shut down a conservative speaking event both through discriminatory fees and then literally inciting others to block entry, this YAF chapter which was told they could not hand out literature at the student fair, this chapter which was denied access to student organization funding, or this chapter which was denied funding for an event which the university deemed “too political” – Robert was understandably concerned.
When Robert inquired about the policy and the ramifications he would face if he refused to sign it, he was told that his graduation could be put on hold and that he would be placed on a list of students for “review” by the dean of students.
That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom filed suit against the university yesterday on Robert’s behalf. All Americans are guaranteed free speech under our Constitution, and that right should never be taken away simply because students are not speaking a “university-approved” message.
Christian and conservative students should never be punished for expressing their beliefs, and that’s why ADF is standing with Robert to challenge Iowa State’s unconstitutional policy.
These types of anti-free speech policies are too often used to silence Christian and conservative students on campus. And worse still, they are teaching generations of college students that the Constitution means whatever a government bureaucrat says it means. We must defend the First Amendment right to free speech for all public university students, both because their own rights are important on campus, but also because today’s students will be tomorrow’s government officials. Tomorrow’s battle for the First Amendment in our culture begins today on our campuses.
Cases like Robert’s are not isolated and are occurring on campuses across the country. Your generous gift, which will be doubled by a matching grant, can help us continue to provide legal services to these college students free of charge.

 What does Barnaby Joyce have to say about the Adani Carmichael coalmine getting $1bn of government funds?

The Adani Carmichael coalmine needs $1bn of government funds for a rail line because it is “a tipping point issue” to get the mine going, Barnaby Joyce has said.
The Nationals leader has given a full-throated defence of subsidising the mine, telling Radio National that Australians should support it because they are “citizens of the world” and warning those that oppose fossil fuels “if you live with the butterflies, you will die with the butterflies”.
Joyce, who is currently acting prime minister as Malcolm Turnbull is in India, where he has met mining magnate Gautam Adani, was asked about proposals to give a $900m concessional loan from the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility for a rail line from the Adani mine to the port.
Joyce has previously supported the loan, although environmental groups warn it does not meet the criteria for the fund.
He called it a “great idea”, claiming it would open up the Galilee basin as a coal precinct, provide electricity in India and create 3,000 direct and 10,000 indirect jobs.
Joyce claimed that those opposed the project lived in suburbs outside the area and their attitude amounted to saying “we’re happy with our life, we want you in central Queensland to stay poorer than us”.
Asked why public funds should be loaned instead of commercial funds, Joyce said that “amongst other things, it’s a tipping point issue to get this mine going”. He said the government wanted open access to the line to allow other miners to use it and turn the Galilee Basin into a “cash cow for Australia”.
“I know the greenies will go off their heads, they’ll be all ringing me up and tweeting me right now, but I can deal with that.
“We’re going to have renewables – I know that – that’s going to be a big part of the energy program going forward. But we’re also going to have baseload coal-fired power.
Asked about the fact Adani has said it can build the mine without a government loan, Joyce said the government needed to be proactive in creating jobs.
The acting prime minister denied that the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility had become a lender of last resort, despite the fact that 14 banks and financial institutions had refused to provide finance to Adani.
Joyce questioned why the Construction Forestry Mining Energy Union and Australian Workers Union didn’t support the mine more vocally, and accused Labor and the Greens of having “fantasia ideas” about how to create jobs.
Asked about Adani’s unlimited water licence, Joyce said water could be supplied if projects including Connors river dam and Rookwood weir were completed.
When challenged about the increased emissions from coal-fired power, Joyce invoked South Australia’s blackouts, referring to the fact wind power settings had affected supply when transmission lines and an interconnector were down.
Joyce also dismissed concerns that the Adani mine could exacerbate environmental problems such as the release of coal dust into the Caley valley wetlands from the Abbot Point coal terminal during Cyclone Debbie, labelling it a “man-made wetland built for duck shooters”.
Joyce said the cause of the damage was the cyclone which had also “pulverised the reef” and occurred because “it’s the tropics”.
Joyce said that governments could mitigate environmental risks but in a “more competitive world … if you go for zero risk you may as well pack up and go home”.
He said the Adani mine should not be stopped because of “dust blowing over a man-made duck shooting pond”.

 Explain how to use Partial Least Squares Path Modelling to construct a team success index for NBA teams during the 2015-16 Playoffs.

There are a few ways to access how good a team is. In this post I use Partial Least Squares Path Modelling to construct a team success index for NBA teams during the 2015-16 Playoffs.
PLS-PM can be described as a tool to analyse the relationship between blocks of variables, taking into account some previous knowledge about the phenomenon observed. In most competitive team sports like basketball success depends on a large number of variables. However, most of these variables can be grouped under two major blocks: offense and defense.
The underlying theory is: as a team improves its offense it will lead to more wins and as it improves its defense it will avoid losing games, therefore improving success.
In this example I use data scraped from nba.stats.com using the same method described in my previous post about plotting shot data. The data contains offensive and defensive stats for the 16 teams that played the 2015-16 playoff series, from the first round to the game 6 of the final series.
In order to run PLS Path model and produce success indices I will use the R package plspm.
After running the code above we have a visual representation of the Partial Least Squares Path Model.
Is this scenario, offensive efficiency is influenced by field goal percentage, 3-point shots made percentage, free throw percentage, offensive rebounds, assists and number of personal faults drawn. On the other hand, defensive efficiency is influenced by defensive rebounds, steals and blocks. Success is defined by the number of wins, win percentage, points and plus/minus differential.
After running the code above, we have coefficients for offense and defense. As the command summary(nba_pls) suggests, the total effect of all offensive variables (summarised under the offense block) on the success of a NBA team during the playoffs is 0.6512 and the total effect of defensive efforts on success is 0.35. At this point I asked myself: “Is defense the best offense?”. The data suggests that, no, it is not.
Next lets inspect how important each of the 9 variable is for total offense and defense by checking the model loadings. Loadings are a numeric value that represents the strength and the directions of the relationship.
Three point field goal percentage and field goal percentage are the most important drivers of an effective defense. Note how offensive rebounds loading is negative and this may seem counter-intuitive at first. But, if a team has a high number of offensive rebounds, it also means that players are missing field goals (the most important drivers for offense). So, the less offensive rebounds a team has the better it is offensively. Personal faults drawn and free throw percentage are weak factors for in a good offense.
According to the model a good defensive team during the playoffs will have strong blocks and defensive rebounds numbers. A little far behind are steals, not as important as the first two.
Success as defined earlier is a set variables rather than one dependant variable. According to model loadings all four variables are highly significant. Plus/minus differential loading is equal to 0.934 and it means by how much a team win/loses games. Win percentage loading is equal to 0.939 followed by average points (0.9097) and number of wins (0.875).
Loadings greater then 0.7 are acceptable and loadings smaller than 0.7 should be removed or revised in order to show a direct positive correlation with the success measures.
A success index can be obtained by running the code below which will also produce an offense index and defense index.
Just before the last game of the finals, the Cleveland Cavalier had the highest success index followed by the Golden State Warriors. This is mostly because the “easier” path the Cavaliers had during the playoffs in contrast to the harder games played by Golden State, specially against Portland and Oklahoma City.
The code can be found in my GitHub repo. This book by Gaston Sanchez served as useful resources for this post. He used data from the Spanish football league and brings a complete explanation about PLS Path Modelling.

 Describe the trend of vegetarianism in China.

More and more people in China are switching to vegetarian food. In China, a country which is the world's largest market for beef, pork, and poultry, eateries are going all vegan to encash this popular sentiment.
With increasing health consciousness among people, the Chinese food eating habits are witnessing a paradigm shift. A recent PTI report suggests that more and more people in China are switching to vegetarian food. In China, a country which is the world’s largest market for beef, pork, and poultry, eateries are going all vegan to encash this popular sentiment. The report hints that people relate non-vegetarian food with high blood pressure and obesity. This has made the vegan eateries more competitive than ever.
Han Lili, a Shanghai-based artist told PTI that the number of vegan restaurants has multiplied from 49 in 2012 to more than 100 last year in China’s largest city, Shanghai. Another report by research firm Euromonitor pointed out that the demand for pork, beef, and poultry in China has seen a decline in the recent years. Another such report by Chinadialogue.net also highlights the decline in the sales of pork from 42.49 million tonnes in 2014 to 40.85 million tonnes in 2016.
Furthermore, the imports of vegetable and fruits have also registered a spike since the growing trend of vegetarianism. As per UN trade figures, imports of avocados rose alone saw a whopping 13,000-fold increase between 2010 and 2016. The report suggests that the shift is also an impact of many dietary guidelines in China advising to eat healthy, environment-friendly vegetarian food. Notably, around 150 million tonnes of carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere every year by the Chinese meat industry.
In 2014, a Xinhua news agency report claimed that more than 50 million people shun meat in their meal in China. It is worth mentioning here that as per many world vegetarian outfits, India habitats the largest world vegan population with over 500 million vegetarian people.

 Explain what a German journalist found when he interviewed a Jabhat al-Nusra terrorist group commander.

“This is a game everybody knows. It’s very clear that the Americans know that their weapons will in the end be in the hands of terrorists,” Todenhofer said speaking to RT.
This is neither a mistake nor a case of negligence, Todenhofer believes, despite some opinions suggesting that American weapons could have accidentally fallen into the hands of terrorists.
He recalled that in 2012 the Pentagon released DIA documents which revealed that Washington is seeking to destroy relations between Shia governments in Iran, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria.
“In a certain way he [the Jabhat al-Nusra commander] is repeating what Pentagon said four years ago,” he stated. “They are trying to get rid of Assad with the help of the rebels,” the journalist concluded.
Todenhofer conducted an interview with a Jabhat al-Nusra terrorist group commander for the Koelner Stadt-Anzeiger newspaper on September 17. In 2014 Todenhofer visited Syria and Iraq, and became the first western journalist who was allowed in IS-controlled territories and managed to safely return home.
In the interview the Jabhat al-Nusra unit commander Abu Al Ezz said that US weapons are being delivered to the terrorist group by governments that Washington supports and American instructors have been providing instruction on how to use them. “Yes, the US supports the opposition [in Syria], but not directly. They support the countries that support us. But we are not yet satisfied with this support,” he said.
He also echoed claims made by Moscow and the Syrian government that the militants were using the Syrian ceasefire, agreed on by Russia and US on September 9, to prepare for a new offensive. “We do not recognize the ceasefire. We will regroup our groups. We will carry out the next overwhelming attack against the regime in a few days,” he said.

 Narrate an example of how "a duty to die" is an outdated concept.

http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | One of the many fashionable notions that have caught on among some of the intelligentsia is that old people have "a duty to die," rather than become a burden to others.
At that time, we didn't have things like electricity or central heating or hot running water. But we had a roof over our heads and food on the table— and Aunt Nance Ann was welcome to both.
It is today, in an age when homes have flat-panelled TVs, and most families eat in restaurants regularly or have pizzas and other meals delivered to their homes, that the elites— rather than the masses— have begun talking about "a duty to die."
But my son didn't have a career. He was just a child who needed someone who understood him. I ended up with custody of my son and, although he was not a demanding child, raising him could not help impeding my career a little. But do you just abandon a child when it is inconvenient to raise him?

 What do you know about Tim Hortons?

Tim Hortons recently faced an onslaught of negative publicity as some of its Ontario franchisees clawed back employee benefits, such as paid breaks, to help offset the province’s minimum wage hike, claiming their corporate parent did not provide assistance. The move sparked nationwide protests and prompted some consumers to boycott the chain.
About 2,100 respondents 18 years and older assessed each company in the online study between Dec. 19, 2017, and Jan. 29, 2018.

 Describe the solution proposed to combat predatory lending in the U.S.

Regulating finance won’t cut it. To combat predatory lending, we need a fully public, state-owned bank.
Wilson filled out forty job applications, looking for a last-minute gig to supplement his work at a senior care center, but nothing came through in time. His bank wouldn’t loan him anything less than $3,000 with corresponding interest, which he was hesitant to add to his already substantial student loan debt.
Thus Wilson joined the nearly 40 percent of college-age Americans who, according to a poll conducted by CNBC, seriously consider taking out a payday loan — a small-sum, quick-turnaround, high-interest loan that can help in a pinch but can also easily lead the borrower down a spiral of debt.
There are nearly twice as many payday lenders as there are McDonald’s locations in the United States. Payday lenders rake in $46 billion a year. The business model is predicated on hidden fees, punitive fines and exorbitant interest rates — up to 700 percent in some cases. These high-risk loans often precipitate financial disaster, but people who are cash-strapped take them anyway, because they have no other option. Without them, they won’t be able to pay rent and may risk eviction, or they won’t be able to afford transportation or childcare and may lose their job.
Payday lenders operate in the void left by traditional banks, whose services don’t extend to everyone. Banks gamble brazenly with huge sums of money, but are notoriously skittish when it comes to the poor, rejecting working-class loan applicants even when they have good credit. Payday lenders make their money almost exclusively on the 7 percent of American households that are unbanked, meaning entirely boxed out of traditional financial services, and the additional 20 percent who — like Wilson — who are underbanked, meaning they have a bank account but still partially rely on high-cost alternative financial services like pawn shop loans, check cashing, money orders, payday loans and so on.
That makes more than a quarter of the American populace a target for predatory loan sharks. And an estimated 12 million people take the bait every year. They usually borrow no more than a few hundred dollars, but in just two weeks owe much more than they were lent. The loans roll over, and the vise of debt begins to tighten. “The cycle of debt is what makes these stores so profitable,” said one payday lender in a particularly candid interview.
Legislation regulating the interest rates and lending practices of alternative financial service providers is an obvious necessity, and good bills do sometimes squeeze through. But to really solve the problem, we need a more radical solution than simply regulating the bottom-feeders. We need to give them less to feed on. In a new paper from the Roosevelt Institute, researchers Thomas Herndon and Mark Paul suggest a concrete solution: a public banking option.
Herndon and Paul recommend that a public bank be established as a government corporation, or a state-owned firm that is required to generate enough revenue to cover its own operating costs — but, without executive salaries and shareholder dividends to pay, no more than that. The bank would be a member of the Federal Reserve system, and it would be regulated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. It would offer basic deposit and transactions services, including a checking account that would come with a debit card, which could in turn be used at charge-free public ATMs. And it would offer loans of varying sizes on “transparent, affordable terms that shielded borrowers from risk” — the complete opposite of how payday lenders operate today.
Public banking is not a new idea. It’s done around the world, and one iteration — postal banking — was actually done successfully in the United States for half a century. Progressives have increasingly advocated for the return of postal banking.
Herndon and Paul recommend that the public bank operate as a separate entity without competitive restrictions, but still partner with the postal service. This would facilitate universal access, since while private banks increasingly turn their backs on poor areas, there is already a brick-and-mortar post office in every ZIP code in the country.
Ultimately socialists believe that we should eliminate private ownership of the means of production, including private banks, altogether. But we also don’t imagine this is possible until a mass working-class movement coheres that can carry out such an ambitious program. In the meantime, if a public banking system were established offering a diverse range of financial services, not for profit, in every ZIP code in the nation, nobody in the U.S. would be unbanked or underbanked anymore. And predatory lenders would have nobody to prey on.

 What is the significance of 10,000 active journals using PKP's Open Journal Systems?

We are very pleased to announce that PKP’s Open Journal Systems is now being used by more than 10,000 active journals around the world. This makes OJS the leading online publishing platform, with more active titles than any other provider, including the major commercial publishers.
These numbers only include journals that are active, defined as having published at least 10 articles in the current year (with an average of 42 overall). There are many more OJS journals that have not published 10 articles this year, either because they have paused or ceased publishing, have a low publication output this year (i.e., less than 10), do not use OJS for their latest year of publishing, or because they are being used to display an archived journal.
Over the years, we’ve also learned of OJS being used for internal reports, for grant applications, as a Learning Management System, for theses submissions, and in other unanticipated ways. None of these innovative uses are captured in these figures.
Between these 10,000 journals, they have published over 420,000 articles, the vast majority of which are open access.
Latin America and the Caribbean account for 3,295 journals, making it the largest region of use. Brazil alone has 1,934 journals. Overall, 60% of all OJS journals are located in the Global South, playing an important role in building local publishing infrastructure.
Examples of the diversity of OJS journals include Holos Environment published by São Paulo State and the Jonathan Edwards Studies Journal at Yale; the Hydro Nepal: Journal of Water, Energy and Environment located in Kathmandu, and Canadian Journal of Sociology at the University of Alberta. The Indonesian Journal of Pharmacology is published by Gadjah Mada University in Indonesia, and the International Journal of Žižek Studies resides at Leeds University. Some surprising titles that have merged include BOSS: The Biannual Online-Journal of Springsteen Studies supported by the McGill University Library and Dancecult: Journal of Electronic Dance Music Culture from Griffith University ePress.
OJS is also increasingly being used by student-led journals, such as See Also from the University of British Columbia and the Canadian Journal for New Scholars in Education from the Canadian Committee of Graduate Students in Education.
Documentation writers and reviewers, who create and revise documentation to help others learn how to use the system.
All of these people donate their time and expertise for the benefits of everyone in the community, and we thank them for their invaluable contribution to this significant milestone for OJS and PKP.

 What is the significance of NASA's public-private partnerships for space exploration?

An artist’s concept for Mars Base Camp space station proposed by Lockheed Martin. Representatives from several space companies say private partnerships could accelerate NASA’s push to Mars.
Commercial space companies today (July 13) urged legislators to extend NASA's successful public-private partnerships for International Space Station transportation to future programs, including human missions to Mars.
NASA already is working with six firms to develop prototype habitats that would augment the agency's multibillion-dollar Orion capsule and Space Launch System heavy-lift rocket. NASA has said it intends to use the system to send astronauts to Mars in the 2030s.
Technologies that SpaceX would be interested in developing in partnership with NASA include heavy-cargo missions to Mars, deep-space communications systems, and demonstrations of vertical takeoff and landing on the moon, Hughes said.
He pointed to the results from NASA’s Commercial Orbital Transportation Services, or COTS, program, which leveraged $800 million of taypayer dollars with millions commercial investment to develop two medium-class launch vehicles and two cargo capsules at a far lower cost and much faster than any previous space vehicle development effort.
The key beneficiaries of COTS — SpaceX and Orbital ATK — now regularly fly cargo to the International Space Station for NASA under separate launch service contracts. A third company, Sierra Nevada Corp., is expected to add its winged Dream Chaser space plane to the fleet in late 2019.
NASA also is funding COTS-like partnerships with SpaceX and Boeing to develop two transportation systems for astronauts.
"The features associated with the COTS program can be more broadly applied now to the development of deep-space exploration systems for transportation, habitats, communications, reconnaissance and resource utilization," Hughes said.
SpaceX is planning its own private mission to Mars using its Dragon spacecraft.
"This encourages fresh thinking and creative problem-solving," Hughes said, adding that competition is critical to the success of COTs-like programs.
Jeff Manber, founder and chief executive of Houston-based NanoRacks, told the Senate subcommittee that public-private partnerships could also help the country transition to an Earth-orbiting research base after the International Space Station is deorbited. Whether the station's mission ends in 2024 or beyond, the United States should avoid a gap in low-Earth orbit human spaceflight, Manber said.
"It's critical that we don't end the International Space Station until we have established commercial operations in low-Earth orbit," said Kennedy Space Center director Robert Cabana. "Right now, the space station serves as a critical destination for our commercial partners."

 Describe how cognitive control and mindfulness may be used to treat ADHD and ADD. Respond in 24 sentences.

Which will it be — the berries or the chocolate dessert? Homework or the Xbox? Finish that memo, or roam Facebook?
Such decisions test a mental ability called cognitive control, the capacity to maintain focus on an important choice while ignoring other impulses. Poor planning, wandering attention and trouble inhibiting impulses all signify lapses in cognitive control.
Now a growing stream of research suggests that strengthening this mental muscle, usually with exercises in mindfulness, may help children and adults cope with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and its adult equivalent, attention deficit disorder.
The studies come amid growing disenchantment with the first-line treatment for these conditions: drugs.
In 2007, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, published a study finding that the incidence of ADHD among teenagers in Finland, along with difficulties in cognitive functioning and related emotional disorders like depression, were virtually identical to rates among teenagers in the United States. The real difference? Most adolescents with ADHD in the United States were taking medication; most in Finland were not.
“It raises questions about using medication as a first line of treatment,” said Susan Smalley, a behavior geneticist at UCLA and the lead author.
A large study last year, in The Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, found that while most young people with ADHD benefit from medications in the first year, these effects generally wane by the third year, if not sooner.
“There are no long-term, lasting benefits from taking ADHD medications,” said James M. Swanson, a psychologist at the University of California, Irvine, and an author of the study. “But mindfulness seems to be training the same areas of the brain that have reduced activity in ADHD.
Depending on which scientist is speaking, cognitive control may be defined as the delay of gratification, impulse management, emotional self-regulation or self-control, the suppression of irrelevant thoughts, and paying attention or learning readiness.
This singular mental ability, researchers have found, predicts success both in school and in work life.
Cognitive control increases from about 4-12 years old, then plateaus, said Betty J. Casey, director of the Sackler Institute for Developmental Psychobiology at Weill Cornell Medical College. Teenagers find it difficult to suppress impulses, as any parent knows.
But impulsivity peaks around age 16, Casey noted, and in their 20s most people achieve adult levels of cognitive control.
Among healthy adults, it begins to wane noticeably in the 70s or 80s, often manifesting as an inability to remember names or words, because of distractions the mind once would have suppressed.
Bolstering this mental ability, specialists are now suggesting, might be particularly helpful in treating ADHD and ADD.
To do so, researchers are testing mindfulness: teaching people to monitor their thoughts and feelings without judgments or other reactivity. Rather than simply being carried away from a chosen focus, they notice that their attention has wandered, and renew their concentration.
Stephen Hinshaw, a specialist in developmental psychopathology at the University of California, Berkeley, said the time was ripe to explore the utility of nondrug interventions like mindfulness.

 Tell me about the new weekly Avengers story! Respond in 37 sentences.

AVENGERS: NO ROAD HOME Launches in February!
Announced at New York Comic Con, there’s a new weekly AVENGERS story launching in February 2019. The creative team that brought you Avengers: No Surrender is back with AVENGERS: NO ROAD HOME, a 10-part mythic monument drawn by Paco Medina and Sean Izaakse, and co-written by Al Ewing, Mark Waid, and me!
Why is there a new weekly Avengers story?
Avengers: No Surrender rode the wave of interest surrounding the Avengers: Infinity War movie and, in that same way, No Road Home looks to capitalize on the excitement for the movie sequel. It’s a wonderful time for both long time fans and new readers to start reading The Avengers.
Our creative team on No Surrender ran a tight ship in terms of organization and production and was well received by readers, retailers, and reviewers, so it was a natural fit to see if we wanted to dive back in and do it again. The chance to tackle another Avengers epic was too good an opportunity to pass by.
That said, the pressure is on to make sure we deliver a story worthy of the format. We’re not an untested experiment anymore, we’re veterans of the weekly war with a desire to prove No Surrender wasn’t a fluke.
No. It’s a spiritual successor in the sense that it’s almost entirely the same creative team involved, but you do not need to have read Avengers: No Surrender in order to enjoy Avengers: No Road Home. They are distinct and self-contained stories. Obviously I want you to read both because they’re entertaining and we put our hearts into them, but they can each be enjoyed all on their own.
How many heroes are in the cast of No Road Home?
No Surrender had 26 heroes as three Avengers teams combined to battle 16 villains. It was epic, but also a ridiculous task keeping track of them all.
No Road Home is a tighter cast of Avengers, less than half the size, but no less exciting in terms of stakes and action. We wanted a leaner crew so we could spend more time with each character and advance their individual story lines more fully.
Revealed so far on the covers you see above are Hawkeye, Hercules, Hulk, Scarlet Witch, Spectrum, Vision, Voyager, and Rocket Raccoon.
Wait a sec – Rocket isn’t an Avenger!
Yeah, well he’s been drafted into the team, whether he likes it or not.
How does this tie into Jason Aaron’s flagship Avengers series?
Midway through No Surrender you guys resurrected the Hulk. Will there be big stuff in No Road Home as well?
You betcha. Our mid-point has a huge reveal that will definitely have readers talking. It’s going to be wild.
Who are those creepy villains on the left half of the issue #2 cover?
Who’s that lady with the big face in the back?
I want you to pre-order Avengers: No Road Home and wait at your local comic shop in frothing anticipation. I want every issue to hit you like a Kirby-crackling fist.
Paco and Sean are drawing the best pages of their career. Mark and Al are two of the best writers I’ve ever met and we’re all in sync with our plans and the way it’s delivered on the page. Writing epic action in the Mighty Marvel Manner™ is my jam and getting the chance to contribute new characters and key moments to No Road Home has been a thrill.
In February 2019, we are Earth’s Mightiest Heroes once again. I hope you join us.

 Provide an example of creative game terminology used in your role-playing game.

I have a luner based oracle in a Pathfinder game that likes to call anyone acting stupidly a sun blasted fool. Other phrases such as A bloody moon is rising for when things are turning ugly get used as well. For some reason the GM and players like hearing those phraseS.
