Drużyna koszykówki, Charlotte Bobcats z 2012 roku odniosła siedem zwycięstw i 59 porażek, co daje 10,6 procenta zwycięstw. W 1899 roku Cleveland Spiders ustanowili rekord nieskuteczności w baseballu, wygrywając tylko 20 ze 154 meczów.

Contra The Social Model Of Disability

Slate Star Codex Podcast

What is the Social Model Of Disability? I'll let its proponents describe it in their own words (emphases and line breaks mine) The Social Model Of Disability Explained (top Google result for the term): Individual limitations are not the cause of disability. Rather, it is society's failure to provide appropriate services and adequately ensure that the needs of disabled people are taken into account in societal organization. Disability rights group Scope: The model says that people are disabled by barriers in society, not by their impairment or difference. The American Psychological Association: It is [the] environment that creates the handicaps and barriers, not the disability. From this perspective, the way to address disability is to change the environment and society, rather than people with disabilities. Foundation For People With Learning Disabilities: The social model of disability proposes that what makes someone disabled is not their medical condition, but the attitudes and structures of society.  University of California, San Francisco: Disabilities are restrictions imposed by society. Impairments are the effects of any given condition. The solution, according to this model, lies not in fixing the person, but in changing our society. Medical care, for example, should not focus on cures or treatments in order to rid our bodies of functional impairments. Instead, this care should focus on enhancing our daily function in society. The Social Model's main competitor is the Interactionist Model Of Disability, which says that disability is caused by an interaction of disease and society, and that it can be addressed by either treating the underlying condition or by adding social accommodations. In contrast to the Interactionist Model, the Social Model insists that disability is only due to society and not disease, and that it may only be addressed through social changes and not medical treatments. . . . this isn't how the Social Model gets taught in real classrooms. Instead, it's contrasted with “the Medical Model”, a sort of Washington Generals of disability models which nobody will admit to believing. The Medical Model is “disability is only caused by disease , society never contributes in any way, and nobody should ever accommodate it at all . . . ” Then the people describing it add “. . . and also, it says disabled people should be stigmatized, and not treated as real humans, and denied basic rights”. Why does the first part imply the second? It doesn't matter, because “the Medical Model” was invented as a bogeyman to force people to run screaming into the outstretched arms of the Social Model. https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/contra-the-social-model-of-disability

What made FOX drop their most viewed and most influential host? Glenn Beck suggests it might be due to Tucker Carlson invoking God in a speech; Glenn says Rupert Murdoch ordered him to stop mentioning the God of the Universe on FOX News. Tucker's video that continues to rack up views that surpass in numbers his FOX News Show, says it's rare to hear truth on any news shows. FOX News is now trailing the lowly Chris Hayes on MSNBC! So, what really happened? Let's employ our favorite tool, pattern recognition. When I did that, I came up with the following theory: Tucker broke the big rule about performing as a conservative Republican TV host . . . Tucker Carlson REFUSED to perform, let alone to perform as a conservative Republican TV Host. Said another way, Tucker's show had become the Washington Generals beating the Harlem Globetrotters and we can't have that . . What does God say? Matthew 10:33 33 But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.Episode 801 Links -ANALYSIS: The Ripple Effects of Tucker Carlson's Exit From Fox NewsNew Fox Wednesday DISASTER… Chris Hayes crushes Kilmeade in Tucker's old slot… Fox News sinks lower into the depths… Hannity dragged down…I don't think I've ever heard a journalist admit before that they don't think their job is to be "adversarial" with WH officials and the President. But as I've said about NBC News allowing its "reporters" like Ben Collins to be explicit Democrats, the more candor, the better:Gates funds millions to NGO claiming kids born sexual, 10-year-olds should learn about 'commercial sex work'; The sex ed said kids under 10 should learn, 'As you grow up, you might start to be interested in people with diverse gender identities'Remember the daily "Covid deaths" updates and graphs they used to scare people into believing in the Covid scam? Now they've started doing something similar for the #ClimateScam. I love how they added nine decimal places to the miniscule 1.27°C temperature rise, to make it look like a huge number. And I love how they started in 1880 as if history started in 1880. If they'd started at the Medieval Warm Period, it would show a decline in temperature.Geologist, Ian Plimer, on the #ClimateScam: "It has nothing to do with climate. It has nothing to do with science. It has nothing to do with the environment, but it's got everything to do with control by unelected bureaucrats somewhere in the world, trying to control everything we do."

Three Things I Learned In SaaS, Sports, Tech & Live Events 1. Fate and a George Foreman grill. Did you know Hulk Hogan was offered what would eventually become the George Foreman grill? Hogan had the first choice between the grill and a mixing device. Only problem was, he wasn't by the phone for the call. George Foreman was. He picked the grill. A $100m mistake by Hogan. Work/life balance matters. A lot. But the best ability, is still availability (thanks to Danny Ainge for that one). The world doesn't wait for us. The sooner we learn, the better off we are in this dog-eat-dog world. Sometimes, you just have to take the call. As my co-founder would say "If you can't reach me, you're not trying." A big part of our early success. We are available to our customers and partners at all times. 2. "They only show the golfers who are winning." We're in a recession right now, and even the NBA feels the pain (so do the other leagues not-named-NFL, they just haven't had that story told….yet) Sports have exploded and seem to have had no signs of slowing down. Well, kinda. The NBA announced this week there would be hiring freezes and cutbacks on expenses in fear of a coming recession (it's not coming, it's already here). Fact is the league is talking to the same sponsors we are and the lagging numbers don't look good. In honesty, numbers really haven't looked good for awhile and were just artificially inflated by the inflow of new categories of gambling, crypto and VC funded company deals - two of the three of which were never real deals in the first place. That money is gone and there isn't anything new to take it's place. Sponsorship goals are usually lagging indicators, which means a whole lot of teams are missing a whole lot of numbers this year. The reason it doesn't seem that way? We pay all our attention to the winning outliers. The NFL. The Taylor Swift's. The F1 races. The Masters. Meanwhile, the middle-of-the-road teams are drowning. And we need more than just the Washington Generals to play against. 3. Boxing, Horse Racing, Baseball and Blockbuster Video. Nothing is disruption proof no matter how it feels in the moment. Many years ago I sat in a keynote with Bob Bowman, then top person at MLBAM. He espoused baseball's success in staying relevant by citing “the three top sports in 1955 were baseball, boxing and horse racing.” Each sport is still plenty lucrative, but boxing and horse racing don't have the same place in the zeitgeist or anywhere near it. His boast was baseball still does. Nobody saw the NFL coming. Nobody believed in the UFC. This excellent quote from Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph this week "If you are unwilling to disrupt your business, there will always be someone willing to do it for you." So who's next? PLL? Pickleball? LIV? Maybe. But it's likely something we're not even considering right now. Kudos to baseball for disrupting themselves with widely loved rule changes. Easy to overlook how big a risk they took now that it worked out.

The Great Coaches: Leadership & Life

Our Great Coach on this episode is Nancy Lieberman. Nancy is that rare individual who has had both a successful playing and coaching career. And her career highlights are so many that this introduction is a long one! She grew up in Queens in New York, learning to play basketball on the courts of Harlem and then as a High School senior she represented the USA at the Olympics and won a silver medal. From 1976 to 1980, she attended Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, and played on the team that won 2 National Championships. In 1980 she was selected with the first pick in the Women's Pro Basketball League (WBL) draft by the Dallas Diamonds. Then in 1981, she played for the Los Angeles Lakers Mens Summer Pro League team under the future hall of famer Pat Riley. In 1986 she signed with the Springfield Fame of the men's professional United States Basketball League. Later, she toured with the Washington Generals, who served as the regular opponent of the Harlem Globetrotters. In the newly formed WNBA's inaugural year in 1997, she played for the Phoenix Mercury and At the age of 39, she was the WNBA's oldest player She transitioned in to coaching in 1998 as the Head Coach of the WNBA team the Detroit Shock. In 2009, she then became the coach of the Texas Legends in the NBA Development League, an affiliate of the Dallas Mavericks, thus becoming the first woman to coach a professional men's basketball team.. In 2015, she was hired by the Sacramento Kings as an assistant coach, becoming the second female assistant coach in NBA history. And then in 2018 she was hired as the Head Coach of the Power in the Big3 league and led the team to the championship in her first year. We were very lucky to get this interview with Nancy, and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

"Big Al" Szolack (born 1950) is a retired American basketball player best known for his time spent on the Washington Generals, the traveling exhibition team who plays against, and always loses to, the Harlem Globetrotters. He played for just the 1974–75 season, one in which the Generals lost all 245 contests. Szolack became a favorite among the Globetrotters and was selected as the "unwitting" participant in many of their pre-determined entertainment plays. Szolack was raised in Woodbury, New Jersey. He was described as "reed-thin" but was a "sniper" on the basketball court while playing for Woodbury High School, from which he graduated in 1968. His ability earned him all-conference and all-county honors, and Szolack then continued his career at Atlantic Cape Community College for two years. After community college, Szolack attended Glassboro State College (now called Rowan University), a then-NAIA school located in Glassboro, New Jersey. He was an integral player on the team, serving as one of their best substitutes off of the bench for head coach Jack Collins. In both seasons the team qualified for the national tournament. Szolack graduated from Glassboro State in the spring of 1973. Right after college, Szolack tried out for the Scranton Apollos in the Eastern Professional Basketball League, but he was the last cut and did not make the roster. He came upon the Washington Generals when he went to see the Globetrotters at the Spectrum in Philadelphia and obtained Red Klotz' phone number. Szolack spent the next year touring the world and playing against (losing to) the Globetrotters. They played seven days a week and sometimes played twice in a day. After his exhibition basketball career ended, he moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida and became a bartender. Then, his 54-year-old mother—with whom he was very close—died from a heart attack. He began to self-medicate with drugs and alcohol, and even admitted later to using up to $1,000 worth of cocaine per day for a time. From ages 27 through 34, Szolack's life was in ruins. In an interview, he later admitted, "Drugs turned me into a thief, a liar, a cheat ... One day I found myself sitting in a corner, holding a shotgun. I lived the life of a vampire, peeking out windows for hours at a time. Sometimes I had only enough energy to get from the bed to the sofa. I was sick, very sick. I didn't live ... I existed." He now goes by the nickname Al "Hugs Not Drugs" Szolack and serves as an abuse awareness director at Hammonton High School in Hammonton, New Jersey. He is also a motivational speaker and runs an annual basketball camp which he calls "Big Al's Basketball Camp." Szolack travels across the United States giving speeches, many times at colleges and universities, and he is on the NCAA-approved speaker roster.

Taken from James DiEugenio's 2013 book, Reclaiming Parkland, we get into a sort of primer for the uninitiated. There are many aspects to the murder of JFK but one thing seems to be a constant, and that is Lee Harvey Oswald was not a “lone nut,” and the infamous “single bullet theory,” was a fabrication. The Warren Commission had more in common with the Washington Generals than an actual investigation. In addition to the DiEugenio book, we highly recommend Oliver Stone's Showtime documentary, JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass.

He attended Carver Vocational-Technical High School in Baltimore, where he helped the basketball team reach the state finals. He played at the Catonsville campus of the Community College of Baltimore County for a year without spending much time on court, but dropped out of college to help support his mother.

Exploring the Beltway "Uniparty" Concept. Republican Establishment muzzling the MAGA movement the same way they muzzled the Tea Party. Republican Donors wanting their party to be the "controlled opposition" -- much like the loser Washington Generals perpetually throwing games to the Harlem Globetrotters. Just enough phony competition to make it seem plausible. Rep. Matt Gaetz tells Lou Dobbs the GOP congressional leadership has never really wanted to get to the bottom of "the extent of the Deep State." The disastrous Speaker Paul Ryan has always wanted to run out the clock on SpyGate. The Uniparty Hypothesis for why we never quite get to the bottom of things, and how the sham Mueller Investigation fits right into the equation. So what can be done? Meanwhile, we summarize recent congressional testimony from James Comey, who claims it's "nonsense" there could have been FISA abuse during his FBI directorship. So totally dishonest -- thus we explain the Woods Procedures once again. When American "institutions" become this corrupt, perhaps it's time to tear down the FBI & DOJ and simply start over. Plus, with Paris burning, we dig deeper into the crisis of globalism in France. The haughty President Macron once lectured President Trump about the Paris Accords on climate -- but alas, Macron has now fallen to 18% approvals as he clamps down on working class Gilets Jaunes protestors. Spectacular incompetence from Macron. How long can Western Elites stay in power while harboring such "contempt" for their own people? Le Mepris. An explosive dynamic. A Long December.
