ARTICLES It’s Not About the Money: THE ROLE OF PREFERENCES, COGNITIVE BIASES, AND HEURISTICS AMONG PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES Michael A. McCann† I. INTRODUCTION Professional athletes are often regarded as selfish, greedy, and out-of-touch with regular people. They hire agents who are vilified for negotiating employment contracts that occasionally yield compensation in excess of national gross domestic products.1 Professional athletes are thus commonly assumed to most value economic remuneration, rather than the “love of the game” or some other intangible, romanticized inclination. Lending credibility to this intuition is the rational actor model; a law and economic precept which presupposes that when individuals are presented with a set of choices, they rationally weigh costs and benefits, and select the course of † Assistant Professor of Law, Mississippi College School of Law; LL.M., Harvard Law School; J.D., University of Virginia School of Law; B.A., Georgetown University.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Taming Anna by Elle Vaughn from Love to Art: Anna Hyatt Huntington, an American Sculptor
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Taming Anna by Elle Vaughn From Love to Art: Anna Hyatt Huntington, an American Sculptor. Anna Hyatt Huntington (1876-1973) was born Anna Vaughn Hyatt near Boston. Her grandmothers, mother Audella, and older sister Harriet helped her fall in love with art. In fact, she initially took up sculpture in order to follow Harriet, with whom she sometimes collaborated. While her female relatives inspired her career, her father influenced her subject matter. Alpheus Hyatt was a zoologist and paleontologist, so it is little wonder that Anna chose to specialize in animal sculpture. She seems to have enjoyed a close connection to and understanding of animals, both of which shine through in her art. Huntington started her career by making small-scale animal figurines. She was successful in this popular genre, selling hundreds of copies of some creations. She received between $25 and $335 for even the more modest versions. This was especially true once she moved to New York in 1902 or 1903. Although Anna Hyatt Huntington made her reputation through small works, she didn’t stop there. She soon graduated to large- scale public sculpture projects. Joan of Arc. In 1915, Huntington received a monumental commission for Riverside Park in New York City – an equestrian statue of the medieval French heroine Joan of Arc (ca. 1412-1431). Huntington had first planned Joan of Arc while in Paris in 1910. While the huge horse kept with her specialty of animal sculpture, the work overall represented a significant departure in scale and subject matter. Horses, in general, and equestrian statues particularly would thereafter feature prominently in her career.

  • CHAT BRIDGE ROCHESTER DUPLICATE BRIDGE CLUB Be Nice! Be Quick! Be Slow! May 2018
    PUSHY PEOPLE CHAT Bridge - April 2018 The Rochester Sectional tournament is over. It was a big success. Many participants gave us rave reviews for “Rochester Nice”. “Rochester Nice” is a step up from “Minnesota Nice”. Many of us heard participants say that they love the Rochester tournament and the friendly atmosphere they enjoy here. This a great statement for our club. The Board of Directors ordered a celebration – Good idea!! OK, enough about “Rochester Nice”. I want to talk about “Rochester Serious”. I am suggesting that you work on making your opponent’s life a “living hell”. Interfering in the bidding as much as possible, more penalty doubles, pushing the opponents bidding to higher levels, getting back at experienced players that consistently reduce your position on the leader board and finally, learning to smile in a manner that looks friendly but has an “in your face” aspect to it (better leave this one out). Have you ever noticed that some of our “Rochester Nice” members seem to be downright pushy? They do most of the things listed above. Their names are frequently at the top of the leader board. When you sit down at their table you get: “Welcome to Table 7. We hope you enjoy your time here”. Why wouldn’t they welcome you? Fresh meat! It may sound like I am picking on these good players. No! I like pushy players. They make you think. They “push” you into really difficult decisions. Research is showing that the mental and social aspects of playing bridge have many health benefits.

  • Play Bridge with Paul
    Play Bridge With Paul Paul Tobias 2/17/2018 In 1960, Terence Reese (generally regarded as the greatest British Bridge player of all time and, arguably, also the best Bridge writer of all time) wrote a book “Play Bridge With Reese”. It read as if I was looking over his shoulder and hearing his thoughts as he bid and played a series of hands from actual competition. It made a lasting impression on me and, in this lecture, I will imitate Reese for 6 hands taken from recent duplicate club play. All hands have been rearranged so that I am sitting (and declaring) in the South position. In a few cases, some details in the actual bidding and play have been altered to better illustrate the lessons of the hands. Hand #1 In first seat I held SAKQ762 1AQ84 493 c6. This is a powerful 4 loser hand, although only 15 high card points. I opened 1S and partner made the meager response of 2S, showing a minimum hand (5 – 9 high card points) with at least 3 trumps. Since all he needs to have is, say, the J10 of hearts and an entry to dummy in spades for me to have a play for game, I closed the auction with 4 spades. Here’s the dummy and my hand S983 1K72 4Q82 cJ1072 SAKQ762 1AQ84 493 c6 1 The opening lead was the cK and East signaled encouragement with the c9. West continued a low club and I ruffed East’s A with the S2. I would have to lose 2 diamonds in addition to the 1 club I had already lost.
