She was known as the lady Tof half a ton. She passed away last Monday morning at a hospital in the United Arab Emirates after suffering for a long time. Her death sent us all a message from the grave. Eman, 36, weighing half a ton, arrived in the UAE last April for treatment from Mumbai, India at the request of her family. The Egyptian Foreign Ministry transferred Eman to the UAE and although she seemed to improve and had lost some weight, the overall decline in health was too much for her heart and kidney. What a loss!. She was only 26 years of age. The World Health Organization (WHO) often issues warn- ings about the dangers of obesity, but I wonder if anyone is really listening?

  • Chapter Iv Individual Player Contributions in European Soccer
    Guy Wilkinson PhD Thesis (2017) CHAPTER IV INDIVIDUAL PLAYER CONTRIBUTIONS IN EUROPEAN SOCCER ABSTRACT This paper looks at applying new techniques to predict match outcomes in professional soccer. To achieve this models are used which measure the individual contributions of soccer players within their team. Using data from the top 25 European soccer leagues, the individual contribution of players is measured using high dimensional fixed effects models. Nine years of results are used to produce player, team and manager estimates. A further year of results is used to check for predictive accuracy. Since this has useful applications in player scouting the paper will also look at how well the models rank players. The findings show an average prediction rate of 45% with all methods showing similar rankings for player productivity. While the model highlights the most productive players there is a bias towards players who produce and prevent goals directly. This results in more attackers and defenders ranking highly than midfield players. There is potential for these techniques to be used against the betting market as most models produce better performance than many betting firms. Guy Wilkinson PhD Thesis (2017) 1. INTRODUCTION This paper focuses on producing models with a high prediction rate in professional soccer. The main challenge is to produce accurate estimations of player ability, a problem analogous to research on worker productivity. The study of worker productivity is of great value to businesses in almost every industry. Hiring the best workers will improve the overall performance of business and increase profit. It is of great importance for firms to be able to screen potential employees efficiently to determine their value.

Ek het toe besef wat aangaan. Omdat ek elke week die jongste uitgawe op talle Suid-Afrikaanse en Afrikaanse Facebook-groepe promoveer, skep dit by party mense (wat nog nooit ingeteken het nie) die indruk dat dit is hoe Brokkies versprei word. Dit is egter ‘n foutiewe aanname. Eerstens doen ek die promosie op sosiale media eers drie of vier dae nadat die uitgawe vrygestel is en per e-pos aan intekenaars bekendgestel is. Dit beteken as daar dan tydsensitiewe inhoud is, sal dit al oud wees teen die tyd dat mense dit deur sosiale media optel. Tweedens gebeur dit soms dat ek te besig is en nie kans kry om die promosie op Facebook te doen nie; dan kan mens maklik die betrokke uitgawe misloop. Ek is dankbaar dat Brokkies maand vir maand, jaar vir jaar ‘n mooi groei in intekenaars beleef. Ek vind dit waardevol om te weet hoeveel intekenaars daar is, en mense wat slegs via Facebook daarop ingaan (hoewel welkom om so te doen) kan my ‘n groot guns bewys deur in te skryf by www.brokkies.net/skryf-in . So ontvang jy ‘n e-pos wat jou inlig wanneer die nuwe uitgawe beskikbaar is; ‘n goeie manier om ingelig te word dat die jongste een uit is.
