Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTH The movie starts harder than any kids movie has ever started before. The movie? Intense. And we see a little Gordon Bombay get told from his coach that it all comes down to him and losing isn't an option, he proceeds to miss the goal and lose.Cut to present day, Gordon Bombay is now a brash defense attorney that wants to win at all costs. After winning his latest case, he celebrates with some drinking and driving. He gets pulled over and that's not good.This gets back to his boss, Mr. Ducksworth. He puts him on paid leave and tells him he's been given 500 hours of community service coaching pee-wee hockey.Speaking of hockey, we meet the team. A group of rag tag kids who love pranking random people with dog poop. They also love hockey despite the fact that they suck at it.Coach Bombay gets out there and sees the team. They're currently 0-9. He starts by telling them he doesn't like kids. He tells them to scrimmage while he gets on a phone call in his limo. The kids don't scrimmage. Instead, they jump on the limo and begin to shake it. They get inside and demand a ride when Charlie's mom, the mother of one of the kids on the team, shows up, yells at Bombay and makes Charlie come home. Wouldn't you know it, their first game is against the Hawks - Bombay's old team that is still coached by his old coach, Reilly. The Hawks are a legit hockey team. District 5? Not so much. They don't even have the right equipment. They get absolutely destroyed. Convinced that they can't win with their play, Bombay teaches them how to take the fall, act hurt, and get indignant. Charlie's not having and refuses to play by Bombay's silly rules.Bombay, feeling a bit lost, goes to talk to his old mentor Hans who gives him the kick in the pants he needs to remember his love of hockey.He goes to apologize to Charlie and his mom and ends up staying for dinner. He is feeling inspired and convinces Ducksworth to sponsor the team.Bombay is suddenly the greatest coach of all time. They even tie a game.Bombay recruits three new players: siblings Tommy and Tammy Duncan, who are skilled figure skaters, and Fulton Reed, a giant who shoots a puck like a bullet out of a gun.Bombay discovers that due to rezoning, Hawks' star Adam Banks should be playing for the Ducks, and forces Reilly to transfer him. While arguing with Reilly, Bombay sarcastically says that the kids don't deserve to live. They take that personally for some reason and refuse to play the next game.Ducksworth calls Bombay and tells him he either lets Banks play for the Hawks or he's fired. Bombay says quack quack quack and leaves to go make up with the kids.The Ducks begins to win a lot thanks to their regained trust of Bombay and the addition of Banks, despite the fact that he is a cake-eater. They make it to the championship against the Hawks. The Hawks strike early and go up 3-0. Reilly wants to make sure it's a blow out by ordering his players to take Banks out. Literally puts him on a stretcher.Bombay tells Reilly he's going down and go gives the pep talk of all pep talks. They pull out all the stops. Fulton's big time. Figure skating. The flying V. and finally, when they need it the most, it's the triple deke to win the game.They celebrate by Bombay kissing Charlie's mom in front of everyone which is out of line if you ask me.The movie ends with Bombay boarding a bus to go try out for the minors again, his dream alive again. But promises he'll be back for next season no matter what.

What does it really take to spin out and start your own private equity firm?Stephanie Srulowitz, co-head of U.S. private funds at Weil, Gotshal & Manges, joins The Data Minute to break it all down. From legal structure to fundraising strategy to LP negotiation tactics, she and Peter walk through the three common paths to fund launch (and which is the hardest), why some seed capital can come at a steep cost, and how new managers should think about anchor LPs, placement agents, and fund terms that will echo into fund two and fund three.Stephanie also shares inside-the-room stories on restrictive covenants, compensating service providers before a fund closes, and why being “too creative” in today's market can actually limit your LP base. Whether you're thinking about breaking out or just understanding how PE firms begin, this is your private equity masterclass.Subscribe to Carta's weekly Data Minute newsletter: https://carta.com/subscribe/data-newsletter-sign-up/Explore interactive startup and VC data, with Carta's Data Desk: https://carta.com/data-desk/01:08 – Willkie's view of the PE landscape and emerging managers02:30 – Who starts PE funds?

Hey Strangers, #genz #jobs #6figures A new survey release by Indeed and Harris Poll shows that nearly 40% of Gen Z and millennial workers (ages 18-34) said they would leave a job because of political differences at work, and 40% said they would leave if their CEO expressed political views they disagreed with. Overall, 28% of workers would consider resigning over political differences, and 32% might leave if the CEO expressed views they disagreed with, Indeed found.It's rare for everyone in a workplace to share the same political views. Employees who find themselves in the political minority may feel trapped in a toxic work environment if it's not handled properly. The survey found that 39% of respondents experienced social pressure to align with a particular political perspective at work. Additionally, 39% reported instances of discrimination or harassment based on their political beliefs, and nearly 16% admitted to avoiding colleagues who hold different political views.=======================================My other podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw**************************************************Something Strangehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRjVc2TZqN4&t=4s**************************************************article links:https://www.sbam.org/40-of-gen-z-and-millennial-workers-would-quit-a-job-over-political-differences-in-the-workplace/https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/22/gen-zers-and-millennials-are-increasingly-rejecting-corporate-loyalty.htmlhttps://www.businessinsider.com/gen-z-sick-leave-pto-mental-health-work-from-home-2024-8======================================Today is for push-ups and Programming and I am all done doing push-ups Discordhttps://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxqTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoderYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@codingwithstrangersTwitchhttps://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangersTwitterhttps://twitter.com/strangestcodermerchSupport CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

Traditionally, headcount equals scale. But in the age of AI, is this still true? In this episode, we're joined by Amos Bar Joseph, the co-founder of Swan AI, the first autonomous business. Their goal? Reaching $30 million in ARR with just three founders and a powerful fleet of AI agents. Amos explains how he is building an enterprise-level business with just three employees, and how Swan AI's autonomous business model is different from traditional AI-powered businesses. While most companies simply bolt AI onto existing workflows to automate repetitive processes, Swan AI is designed around agentic workflows, where AI agents operate with memory, goals, and decision-making capabilities. It's not just automation; it's intelligent delegation. Amos is quick to clarify: this isn't about replacing humans, it's about giving small teams superpowers. He explained how each agent is purpose-built to make their founders 100x more effective, by designing agents around them, rather than 1:1 replacing a hire. Amos explains how to ensure your agents stay accurate and aligned with business objectives, avoiding ‘hallucinations' and maintaining customer trust. He also shares when to stick with classic workflows and when to switch to agents for higher-level tasks. We also tackle the provocative question: Is a one-person unicorn possible? If you're interested in building a smarter, leaner business using AI, this episode will challenge how you think about scale. Enjoy! Topics Discussed in this episode: What is an agentic workflow?

Most gym owners start with a fitness passion, instead Sheetal started with a tech background and a structured business plan, and it worked. He built three Club Pilates studios that together do over $100K/month with 50% profit margins and scaled without him onsite. In this episode, you'll hear how he built the system, sold the portfolio, and walked away with a multi-seven-figure exit. We break down the real numbers behind his sale, how “add-backs” boosted his valuation, why clean P&Ls attract better buyers, and how NPS helped him grow without ads. Whether you're building for freedom, scale, or a future exit, Sheetal's approach proves you don't need to be a fitness expert to run a wildly successful studio, you just need to think like a business owner and implement the right systems.

Vous n'avez peut-être jamais entendu parler d'eux, ou au contraire, vous les suivez depuis plusieurs années... Cet été, Code Source vous propose une série de portraits de personnalités très connues au sein de leur bulle mais pas toujours identifiées par le grand public.

Consternation et colère des autorités à Ouaga après la mort en Côte d'Ivoire de l'activiste burkinabè Alain Traoré, alias Alino Faso. L'influenceur, âgé de 44 ans, était détenu à Abidjan pour intelligence avec des agents d'un État étranger. Il a été retrouvé pendu jeudi dernier. Les autorités ivoiriennes n'ont annoncé sa mort qu'avant-hier dimanche. Fraternité Matin à Abidjan rapporte la version officielle : « Alino Faso a été découvert dans sa chambre à 7 h 30 du matin. Le rapport médical a conclu à un suicide par pendaison. Le détenu se serait pendu à l'aide de son drap de lit, après avoir tenté en vain de s'ouvrir les veines du poignet. Des enquêtes sont en cours pour déterminer les motifs et les circonstances de ce suicide ». « Alino Faso, rappelle Le Monde Afrique, avait été interpellé le 10 janvier dernier à Abidjan. Il était suspecté d'avoir des liens étroits avec les BIR-C, les Bataillons d'intervention rapide de la communication, un groupe de cyberactivistes burkinabés très influents sur les réseaux sociaux. Les BIR-C relaient la propagande de la junte burkinabé et menacent ou invectivent régulièrement toute voix critique sur la conduite des affaires au Burkina ». « Figure controversée, précise Afrik.com, Alino Faso avait été arrêté en Côte d'Ivoire après avoir été dénationalisé par les autorités ivoiriennes pour des propos jugés séditieux et des activités militantes jugées déstabilisatrices. Il s'était longtemps présenté comme un opposant en exil, critique à la fois du pouvoir ivoirien et burkinabè ». Défiance et suspicion… Les autorités burkinabé ont donc donné de la voix… Les ministres des Affaires étrangères et de la Communication, pointe le site Lefaso.net, « rejettent la thèse du suicide avancée par les autorités judiciaires ivoiriennes et parlent de déni de justice. Le gouvernement burkinabè dit rester engagé dans le suivi de ce dossier jusqu'à la manifestation totale de la vérité et salue la mémoire d'un homme de bonne volonté qui a vécu utile pour son prochain et qui a trouvé dans l'altruisme toute sa raison de vivre ». « Le Burkina exige la vérité et le rapatriement du corps et déclare que sa mort ne restera pas impunie », s'exclame pour sa part Sidwaya, autre site burkinabè. Commentaire de Ledjely en Guinée : « c'est un décès qui ne contribuera pas à apaiser les relations déjà tendues entre les autorités ivoiriennes et burkinabè. La mort, dans des circonstances pour le moins troubles, d'Alino Faso embarrasse logiquement la Côte d'Ivoire. D'autant que du côté de la junte du capitaine Ibrahim Traoré, la disparition de cet influenceur, considéré comme un relais de la propagande pro-Ouagadougou, est perçue comme une énième preuve des manœuvres souvent imputées au pouvoir d'Alassane Ouattara. Les discours se durcissent, les menaces fusent. La condamnation est énergique. L'exigence de vérité sur les causes et les circonstances du décès est tout aussi vigoureuse ». Côté ivoirien, poursuit le site guinéen, « main sur le cœur, on affirme qu'Alino Faso s'est suicidé dans sa cellule, se pendant à l'aide de son drap de lit. Mais cette version est tout simplement inaudible à Ouagadougou, où la défiance et les suspicions envers Abidjan sont installées depuis l'arrivée au pouvoir d'Ibrahim Traoré, en septembre 2022 ». Stratégie de diversion ? Reste, tempère Ledjely, que « cette exigence de vérité ne saurait justifier l'instrumentalisation politique à laquelle se livrent le capitaine Ibrahim Traoré et son entourage. La mort d'Alino Faso est certes dramatique et condamnable. Mais elle ne saurait en aucun cas exonérer les autorités burkinabè de leurs propres responsabilités, à commencer par celle de restaurer la sécurité sur l'ensemble du territoire, mais aussi de garantir le respect des droits humains et des libertés fondamentales. Elle ne doit servir ni de prétexte à la surenchère, ni de fuite en avant, dans une stratégie de diversion bien rodée ». Enfin, on revient à Afrik.com qui relève que « si la Côte d'Ivoire n'a pas encore officiellement réagi (après les protestations des autorités burkinabè), les prochains jours s'annoncent cruciaux. La gestion du dossier pourrait influer durablement sur les relations entre Abidjan et Ouagadougou, déjà affectées par les débats récurrents sur les questions migratoires, sécuritaires et politiques ».

"Send me a text"Are you secretly scared of your own desires? I see this all the time in my practice – we avoid knowing what we truly want because we're terrified of disappointment. But here's the thing: your desires are there whether you acknowledge them or not, and avoiding them is just quitting in advance (there's no benefit). In this episode, I'm walking you through a powerful exercise that will help you uncover what you actually want (not what you think you should want). We're going to dig past those surface-level desires – like wanting the perfect body or your partner to initiate sex more – and get to the real stuff underneath.I'll share how my own perfectionist fantasies were actually masking deeper desires for self-acceptance, and how recognizing this changed everything. You'll learn to distinguish between desires you can control versus ones that depend on other people, and why that matters so much.This isn't about repressing your wants – it's about getting smart about them. I'm giving you the exact questions to ask yourself that will help you figure out which desires are worth pursuing and which ones are just symptoms of other issues.Grab a pen and paper – we're doing this work together.Get my free email newsletter with helpful tips, plus a free guide to Finding Your Deepest Turn-Ons, and learn how to work with me at https://laurajurgens.com.

There is a buzz about longevity. Many people feel that we are on the brink of a lifespan revolution. There is talk of making living to 100 the new norm. But the reality is just the opposite. So, I thought I should. The truth:Life expectancy is actually declining. Since its peak in 2014, the average lifespan in the United State has declined about 0.5 years. This may not sound like much. But considering the trend has been consistent and represents the average of a population of over 300 million people, it's a hug deal. My big fear…..This is just the beginning and that this trend will continue. Why? Because even though we have more and better medical technology than ever, our environment is increasingly unhealthy. The world has become obesogenic, diabetogenic, and addicted. This is crippling our ability to live long and live well.Figure 1: Life Expectancy from Birth (2003 – 2023)Visit Longetrics.org/blog or fullscope.org/blog for the complete post!
