neg: Athletic trainer An athletic trainer is a certified and licensed health care professional who practices in the field of sports medicine . Athletic training has been recognized by the American Medical Association ( AMA ) as an allied health care profession since 1990 .   As defined by the Strategic Implementation Team of the National Athletic Trainers ' Association ( NATA ) in August 2007 :   `` Athletic training is practiced by athletic trainers , health care professionals who collaborate with physicians to optimize activity and quality of life for patients both of the physically active and sedentary population . Athletic training encompasses the prevention , diagnosis and intervention of emergency , acute and chronic medical conditions involving impairment , functional limitations and disabilities . ''   To become an athletic trainer one must have a master 's degree from an accredited professional level education program and then sit for and pass the Board of Certification ( BOC ) examination . Each state then has their own regulatory agencies that control the practice of athletic training in their state . Most states ( 42 ) require an athletic trainer to obtain a license in order to practice in that state , 5 states ( Colorado , Hawaii , Minnesota , Oregon , West Virginia ) require registration , 2 states ( New York , South Carolina ) require certification , while California has no state regulations on the practice of athletic training .  Areas of expertise of certified athletic trainers include :  Apply protective or injury-preventive devices such as tape , bandages , and braces  Recognize and evaluate injuries  Provide first aid or emergency care  Develop and carry out rehabilitation programs for injured athletes  Plan and implement comprehensive programs to prevent injury and illness among athletes  Perform administrative tasks such as keeping records and writing reports on injuries and treatment programs   Services rendered by the athletic trainer take place in a wide variety of settings and venues , including actual athletic training facilities , primary schools , universities , inpatient and outpatient physical rehabilitation clinics , hospitals , physician offices , community centers , workplaces , and even the military . Emerging settings for athletic training include surgical fellowship opportunities .

neg: WENY (AM) WENY ( 1230 AM ) is a radio station in the Elmira-Corning market of New York state . It broadcasts at 1000 watts day and night on 1230 kHz from studios in Corning , New York . It is a talk radio station that airs local sports and a 3-hour morning local talk show with host Frank Acomb . It is simulcast with WENI-AM ( formerly WCLI-AM 1450 AM ) .   It was the first station licensed in Chemung County and the first in the market .   The station signed on in 1932 as WESG , broadcasting on 1200 KHz from a studio on Market Street in Elmira , which remains its city of license . Its call letters stood for Elmira Star-Gazette , the local newspaper and one of its owners . Earlier , the station had been known as WGBF , Glens Falls , New York . The change to WESG , Elmira , New York , came in 1932 `` by authority of the Department of Commerce . ''   At some point after 1940 , when WESG cut ties with Ithaca station WEAI , the station changed its call letters to WENY , which stood for `` Elmira , New York . '' It also changed frequency to 1230 kHz , where it remains today .   Sister station WENY-FM was launched in the 1960s .   In the 1950s , 1960s , and 1970s WENY-AM was a full service operation with an extensive air staff and local news department and by far the dominant radio station in the Elmira market .   In the 1970s , as a Top 40 music station , WENY adopted the slogan `` We 're the One , '' a play on the Orleans song `` Still The One , '' which was popular at the time and was used in promotions for ABC television , of which then-sister station WENY-TV 36 was an affiliate . The members of Orleans also were natives of the Elmira and Ithaca areas .   The station kept playing music until the early 1990s , when it switched to talk radio . That was when it dropped Voice of the People , a long-running local talk show that ran weeknights at 6 p.m. Ted Hodge was the host of Voice of the People in the late 1970s .   Longtime owner Howard Green sold the station cluster to Lilly Broadcasting in 1999 . As Lilly ( and its predecessor , SJL Broadcast Management ) was primarily a television company , Lilly sold off the radio stations to White Broadcasting in 2000 , which switched the AM side to an oldies format . Under a limited marketing agreement , the station was managed by Eolin Broadcasting Inc. , which also owned talk radio station WCLI , WCBA-FM ( adult contemporary ) , WCBA ( adult standards ) and WGMM ( oldies ) . White sold the station to EBI in 2001 , at which time the television station was separated from the radio stations .   EBI moved the station to its headquarters in South Corning and switched WENY back to talk radio , simulcasting with WCLI .   In 2003 , EBI sold all of the stations to Route 81 Radio , based in Hazleton , Pennsylvania . When Route 81 Radio went defunct , WS Media , a shell company for William and Paige Christian ( owners of TV station WYDC ) , bought the stations . To circumvent ownership caps , the Christians each operate some of the stations under each individual owner 's name .

neg: Monte Towe Monte Corwin Towe ( born September 27 , 1953 ) is an American basketball coach and retired player .   Towe attended Oak Hill High School in Converse , Indiana . He was the starting point guard on North Carolina State 's 1974 NCAA championship team , and also played varsity baseball for NC State , earning All-ACC recognition in basketball and playing on conference championship teams in both sports . In 1975 , the 5 ' 7 '' ( 1.7 m ) Towe received the Frances Pomeroy Naismith Award as the year 's best college player under 6 ft tall . Monte Towe and David Thompson are credited with `` inventing '' the alley-oop . Because dunking was illegal at the time , Towe would throw the ball to Thompson while he was in the air and Thompson would gently drop the ball in the basket . Towe was drafted by the Denver Nuggets in the third round of the 1975 ABA Draft and by the Atlanta Hawks in the fourth round of the 1975 NBA Draft . Towe joined Thompson in signing with Denver , for whom he played in 1976 in the final year of the American Basketball Association and in the 1976-1977 season when Denver joined the NBA . He played in the 1976 ABA All-Star game when the game format was Denver vs. All-Stars .   After his retirement as a player , Towe returned to NC State and became an assistant under his former college coach , Norm Sloan , for the 1979-80 season . He then followed Sloan to the University of Florida ( 1980 -- 89 ) . During the 1990s , he was coach and general manager of two teams in the Global Basketball Association ; coach of a professional team in Venezuela ( Marinos de Oriente ) ; an assistant coach of the Sioux Falls Skyforce of the Continental Basketball Association under head coach Flip Saunders ; coach of two junior college teams ; and an assistant coach at the University of North Carolina at Asheville .   In 2000 , Towe was named head basketball coach at the University of New Orleans . He compiled a 70-78 record over five seasons . In May 2006 , he left UNO to become associate head coach at North Carolina State under head coach Sidney Lowe . On April 14 , 2011 , he was named an assistant coach at Middle Tennessee State University .   Towe was inducted into the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002 .   He now coaches at Oak Hall School as an associate head coach ( 2015 ) .

neg: Notational analysis In professional sports , notational analysis is the study of movement patterns , strategy and tactics in team sports . Successful patterns of play can be identified and used in subsequent matches . Notational analysis has a history in dance and music notation . Notational analysis is a way that critical events in a performance can be quantified in a consistent and reliable manner .   In notational analysis , no change in performance of any kind will take place without feedback . The role of feedback is central in the performance improvement process , and by inference , so is the need for accuracy and precision of such feedback . The provision of this accurate and precise feedback can only be facilitated if performance and practice is subjected to a vigorous process of analysis .   Augmented feedback has traditionally been provided by subjective observations , made during performance by the coaches , in the belief that they can accurately report on the critical elements of performance without any observation aids . Several studies not only contradict this belief , but also suggest that the recall abilities of experienced coaches are little better than those of novices , and that even with observational training , coaches ' recall abilities improved only slightly . Furthermore , research in applied psychology has suggested that these recall abilities are also influenced by factors that include the observer 's motives and beliefs . The coach is not a passive perceiver of information , and as such his or her perception of events is selective and constructive , not simply a copying process . This importance of feedback to performance improvement , and the limitations of coaches ' recall abilities alluded to above , implies a requirement for objective data upon which to base augmented feedback , and the main methods of `` objectifying '' this data involve the use of video / notational analysis ( Hughes and Franks , 1997 p. 11 ) .   Coaches have been aware , consciously or unconsciously , of these needs for accuracy of feedback and have been using simple data gathering systems for decades . More recently , sports scientists have been using notational analysis systems to answer fundamental questions about game play and performance in sport . An early work , over some decades , on analysis of soccer was picked up by the then Director of Coaching at the Football Association , and this had a profound effect on the patterns of play in British football -- the adoption of the ` long ball ' game . Generally , the first publications in Britain of the research process by notational analysis of sport were in the mid-1970s , so as a discipline it is one of the more recent to be embraced by sports science . The publication of a number of notation systems in racket sports provided a fund of ideas used by other analysts . Because of the growth and development of sports science as an academic discipline , a number of scientists began using and extending the simple hand notation techniques that had served for decades . This also coincided with the introduction of personal computers , which transformed all aspects of data gathering in sports science . Currently hand and computerised notation systems are both used to equal extents by working analysts , although the use of computer databases to collate hand notated data post-event makes the analyses much more powerful .   The applications of notation have been defined as : -   1 . tactical evaluation ,   2 . technical evaluation ,   3 . analysis of movement ,   4 . development of a database and modelling , and   5 . for educational use with both coaches and players .   Most pieces of research using notation , or indeed any practical applications working directly with coaches and athletes , will span more than one of these purposes .

neg: Technical fall In amateur wrestling , a technical fall , or technical superiority , is a victory condition satisfied by outscoring one 's opponent by a specified number of points . It is wrestling 's version of the mercy rule . A technical fall is also known as `` tech '' for short ; colloquially : `` I teched him '' as verb .   In collegiate and scholastic ( folkstyle ) wrestling , a differential of fifteen points ends the match regardless of when it occurs . If the high-scoring wrestler is able to pin the low-scoring wrestler as a continuation of the near fall whose points gave the decisive margin , the pin is awarded , but if the wrestler is unable to get the pin , then the match ends as described above .   Under the old rules of freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling , a ten-point differential ended the match .   Under the rules adopted in 2004 -- 05 by FILA , the international styles moved to a three-period system similar to a best of three series ; the technical fall wins only the period , as opposed to a pin , which ends the match entirely . However , if a wrestler wins two out of three periods in this way , he is then the winner of the match by technical superiority . The new technical fall can be achieved in three ways :  Creating a six-point differential  Executing two three-point throws , which either take the opponent from his feet to the danger position ( his back ) , or are grand-amplitude throws which do not end in the danger position  Executing one grand-amplitude throw ending in the danger position . A grand amplitude throw is one in which the opponent is taken from his feet to his back with his feet going directly above his head .

The company was founded in 1962 . Education Management Corporation has operated 110 schools through its four higher education divisions : Argosy University , The Art Institutes , Brown Mackie College and South University .   In October 2015 , EDMC reported a student enrollment of 91,000 , a 43 % drop from its peak enrollment of 158,300 in 2011 .   EDMC has a reported 109 locations , but more than 40 Brown Mackie Colleges and Art Institutes schools are in the process of closing .   In 2011 , EDMC and its subsidiary , the Art Institutes , received greater public scrutiny with the release of the Frontline documentary : Educating Sergeant Pantzke . In the documentary , Iraq war veteran Chris Pantzke discussed the lack of disability services at the school . According to Pantzke , `` Being a soldier , you do n't want to quit , you do n't want to give up or fail . '' But after doing his own research , Pantzke concluded that the degree he was pursuing was n't `` worth much more than the paper is worth '' . And he felt he was `` throwing away taxpayer money '' by using GI Bill funds .   Todd S. Nelson , who was previously the CEO of Apollo Education Group , became the CEO in 2007 and the Chairman of the Board of Directors in 2012 .   From June 2013 to June 2014 , the company eliminated about 2,600 positions , and campuses have been closed or are in the process of closing .   EDMC has faced significant financial problems , including a 99.9 % drop in the value of its stock and a defaulted bond rating ( to junk bond status ) . Under a pending agreement , shareholder stock value will be diluted an additional 96 % . Moody 's credit rating service in January 2015 dropped EDMC to its lowest rating , D-PD . EDMC 's CEO , Edward West , resigned from the company on August 28 , 2015 , `` to pursue other interests '' . The company was never profitable under his leadership . EDMC was delisted from the NASDAQ in November 2014   EDMC has been the subject of several lawsuits and investigations alleging that the company made misleading claims in its efforts to recruit students .   On November 16 , 2015 , federal and state authorities announced a $ 95.5-million settlement resolving a whistleblower case in which former EDMC employees said the company was `` illegally paying recruiters based on the number of students they enrolled . ''   As of 2016 , EDMC announced that it was planning to close 19 of its Art Institute campuses and 22 of 26 Brown Mackie College campuses .

neg: Elliot in the Morning Elliot in the Morning is a morning radio talk show hosted by DJ Elliot Segal . It airs weekdays from `` 5:48 until 10-something '' on WWDC-FM in the Washington , D.C. metropolitan area , WRXL in Richmond , Virginia and on WBWZ in the Hudson Valley of New York . The program was simulcast on WOSC in Ocean City , Maryland from 2003 to 2004 and on WCHH in Baltimore , Maryland from May 2008 to November 2009 . Beginning in January 2014 , the show was briefly simulcast on WOR-AM , while continuing to simulcast on the DC and Richmond stations , with the show originally planning to leave the DC101 studios in January 2014 . However , after citing that `` significant changes '' would be needed for the show to succeed in NYC , it was announced that the show would no longer be carried on WOR-AM .   The format covers a broad spectrum of topics , ranging from in-person or telephone interviews with well-known celebrities , to gross-out stunts involving much of the show 's supporting cast . The show has regular telephone interviews with Patricia Murphy ( from The Daily Beast ) , Mark Steines ( from Entertainment Tonight ) during sweeps and Brandon Noble ( former NFL player ) during football season .   As of 2005 , Elliot in the Morning had been the cause of the fifth largest amount of Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) fines since 1970 , with $ 302,500 worth of fines leveled at the show . As a result , while the show still frequently involves euphemistic mentions of sexual topics , it is broadcast with a short tape delay , and is occasionally `` dumped '' to canned music for profanity .

neg: College interview A college interview is a short face-to-face meeting , usually between a college admissions officer and a high school student applying for admission . It is one of several ways for a college to assess an applicant along with grade transcripts and standardized scores and essays . Interviews can take place on the college campus , at the high school ( if the college sends representatives ) , and elsewhere such as at a local coffee shop if there is an interview between a student and an alumnus . In addition , several colleges have been experimenting with online interviews . If offered by a college , interviews are sometimes described as optional , but one report suggested that not doing an interview when one was offered could hinder chances for admission . Further , doing an interview signals an interest in attending .   Likely interview questions include :  Can you tell me a little about yourself ?  Why are you interested in our college ?  What are you interested in studying ?  How will you contribute to our campus community ?  What do you see yourself doing ten years from now ?   Counselors and teachers and professional consultants offer differing guidelines about interviews . Most suggest that an interviewee should `` dress to impress '' , avoid wearing provocative or inappropriate clothes , although a report in 2009 suggested that hiring a fashion consultant and shopping for expensive clothes before an interview was unnecessary and could backfire . There is strong consensus that rehearsing for interviews is important . Former Andover theater instructor and professional interview coach Mark Efinger believes that preparation is vital for a successful interview . Sometimes assistants help students prepare for the interview . Private secondary schools such as St. Paul 's in New Hampshire have a two-week `` boot camp '' in the summer before senior year to help students prepare which includes simulated practice interviews . Efinger advises students to write up their major achievements , organize them into themes , and have a three to five minute theme-oriented `` success story '' ready ( but not memorized ) before an interview , and suggests that interviewees should try to steer the conversation to show how their skills and experience meet criteria valued by the interviewer . For example , if trying to demonstrate an aptitude for `` planning and organization '' , he or she might show how they plan their schedule using their mobile scheduling app .   Advisers agree that a usual open-ended question to begin the interview will be along the lines of `` tell me about yourself '' , and that a student should be ready with a response . Several emphasize the importance of being able to back up adjectives such as `` hardworking '' and `` motivated '' with a brief and memorable anecdote to explain further what is meant . Efinger describes such anecdotes as `` arrows '' designed to `` hit the bull 's - eye '' to make a point which sticks in the interviewer 's mind ; in addition , interview preparation can include a private soul-searching exercise called a `` failure resume '' to get students to think about their past mistakes in order to help them outline what they learned from their experience . It helps for students to understand what they want and to show how a particular college can help them achieve their long range goals . While interviews can be stressful , one report suggested that the main purpose of the interview was to `` show that you are a good person '' who is `` polite and interesting '' with a `` sense of humor '' . Another report suggested the most important thing , when an applicant has strong grades and test scores and activities , is simply not `` blowing the interview '' , although this varies by college .

neg: Adaptive expertise Adaptive expertise is a broad construct that encompasses a range of cognitive , motivational , and personality-related components , as well as habits of mind and dispositions . Generally , problem-solvers demonstrate adaptive expertise when they are able to efficiently solve previously encountered tasks and generate new procedures for new tasks . This definition can be contrasted with more traditional ideas of expertise popularized by Chi and others , which do not typically consider adaptation to completely novel situations . Its empirical validity has been examined in a number of training and learning contexts . The term was first coined by Giyoo Hatano and Kayoko Inagaki , to tease out the variability within groups of experts . Hatano and Inagaki , described two types of expertise : routine expertise , or classic expertise , and adaptive expertise . They defined routine expertise as involving mastering procedures in such a way as to become highly efficient and accurate , whereas developing adaptive expertise requires an individual to develop conceptual understanding that allows the `` expert '' to invent new solutions to problems and even new procedures for solving problems . To illustrate , imagine two sushi chefs : one who makes every piece perfectly but routinely makes the same few types over and over ( routine , or classic , expertise ) , and one produces new menus frequently ( adaptive expertise ) . To some , this is an unfair comparison , as ones ' environment supports behavior . For example , the routine of the classic expert sushi chef may be tied to his restaurant environment , and this chef may be able to break out of the routines easily given a different situation . However , the adaptive expert chef clearly demonstrates flexible knowledge and performance of sushi-making . Learning Scientists are interested in adaptive expertise , in part because they would like to understand the types of learning trajectories that may allow practitioners break free from routines when necessary .   There is not , however , a true dichotomy between adaptive and classic expertise . Expertise can be thought of as a continuum of adaptive ability . On one end , practitioners can be classified as `` routinely skilled '' versus `` innovatively competent '' ; as `` artisans '' versus `` virtuosos '' ; or as those approaching a task in a routine versus more flexible way . The notion of adaptive expertise suggests that new problems can be viewed as a platform for exploration in a new problem space and not just an opportunity to practice completing a task more efficiently . For example , adaptability enabled the Apollo 13 crew to successfully build an air filter from ill-fitting parts whilst in space , while the TV chef , Jamie Oliver , is able to flamboyantly and creatively produce good food using only simple ingredients .   A distinguishing feature of adaptive expertise is the ability to apply knowledge effectively to novel problems or atypical cases in a domain . Holyoak characterized adaptive experts as being capable of drawing on their knowledge to invent new procedures for solving unique or fresh problems , rather than simply applying already mastered procedures . Adaptability allows experts to recognize when highly practiced rules and principles do not apply in certain situations in which other solvers might typically attempt to use a previously learned procedure . Moreover , studies have shown that this flexibility can result in better performance than that of classically defined experts , resulting in , amongst other things , better technical trouble shooting ; workplace error avoidance ; and more accurate medical diagnosis . John D. Bransford considers this flexible , innovative application of knowledge , in large part , underlies adaptive experts ' greater tendency to enrich and refine their understanding on the basis of continuing experience to learn from problem-solving episodes .

neg: Golf instruction Golf instruction is the art of equipping and training golfers to play better golf through improved awareness of swing cause and effects as a result of the actions by their body , the club , and their effect on the golf ball . Most great golfers have a few common elements that make them great including : proper intentionality , swing repeatability to produce an action that fits the golfers intentionality , and a strong level of automaticity for long lasting enjoyment of the game golf . Golf instruction is unique as golf consists of five primary skills : shots from a tee ( most notable : driving that uses a driver ) , full shots from the ground ( mostly known as `` iron shots '' , pitching ( or 3/4 shots designed for distance control , chipping ( short shots around the green the require less than a full swing ) , putting ( 1 club preferably `` the putter '' ) and course strategy or gamesmanship .   Proficiency in teaching golf instruction requires not only technical and physical ability , but also knowledge of the rules and etiquette of the game . Golf instruction offered on many platforms in the United States including : the PGA of America , GolfTEC , and independent golfers who `` may '' or `` may not '' have credentials that are recognized by credible teachers certified sources such as the PGA of America . Although there are many great golf instructors in the United States , who are PGA Class A Professionals , not all great instructors carry this status nor find it a major determiner of golf instruction proficiency .   Golf Instruction can be wide ranging , but many great modern day instructors are able to diagnose and prescribe swing frustrations accurately and present a clear fix that encourages the golfer in the discovery of lasting repeatability from the specific ailment that `` plagued '' them from a sound repeatable swing to play a golf course successfully ( varying terms of success as a golfer ) Many modern instructors include the following in their diagnosis  1 . visual feedback through video and bio motion analysis  2 . personalized golf club fitting for individual body and swing types  3 . on-course play under real conditions  4 . mental performance development  5 . golf specific body conditioning for optimal golf bio-mechanics   Beginning players can start lesson in several ways , but most do so in either a group or individual setting , covering the five primary skills of golf as noted above golf swing . Golf is an asymmetrical exercise that can break body balances , requiring also adequate exercises to keep the balance in muscles . Experienced recreational players often return for instruction , either to fix a specific problem they are encountering or to improve their game . Reconstruction of a golf swing to reach a high level of play often involves series of lessons over an extended period of time . Junior golfers often begin receiving instruction by age 10 or younger , and often retain private teachers even when coached on a high school golf team .   Some top instructors who work with professional golfers have become quite well known in their own right over the years , including Harvey Penick , Jack Grout , Dick Harmon , David Leadbetter , Butch Harmon , Hank Haney , Chip Thomson , Sean Foley , and Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer . Some of the teachers maintain teaching facilities or schools where they or their disciples use their methods or systems . A few instructors focus solely on a particular aspect of the sport , such as Dave Pelz with the short game . Some famous golfers have been tightly bound with their instructor , such as Jack Nicklaus with Jack Grout , while in other cases golfers have made high-profile switches from one instructor to another , such as Tiger Woods moving from Butch Harmon to various other instructors .   Recreational golfers are constantly seeking tips on how to improve , and the major golf publications such as Golf Magazine and Golf Digest devote substantial portions of their pages to instructional material of various kinds , often written by top-level instructors . Even television broadcasts of professional golf tournaments often contain short instructional segments , delivered by commentators who are also instructors such as Peter Kostis .   Golf instruction may be augmented by training aids such as specially weighting or jointed clubs , putting cups for practice on the den room carpet , mini practice tees with feedback for use in garages , et cetera . Some training aids are sold via television infomercials and the more peculiar varieties were satirized in the 1996 film Tin Cup .   Golf instruction is no guarantee of success or improved play in the game . Bad mechanics can be deeply ingrained in a subject 's swing , and psychological factors can also hinder progress . The 2009 Golf Channel program The Haney Project : Charles Barkley showcased some of these issues , as Hank Haney attempted to fix former NBA great Charles Barkley 's infamously bad swing .

neg: WZIM WZIM ( 99.5 FM ) is a radio station serving the Bloomington-Normal , Illinois area . The station signed on in late 2001 as WCSO , and the call letters were soon changed to WDQZ . It was a classic hits simulcast with WDQX in Peoria . In December 2005 WDQX was sold , and the simulcast with WDQZ was split . Since then the station has evolved into a more straight-ahead classic rock station . In September 2009 WDQZ stunted as an all TV theme station for a day and a half . On September 18 , 2009 WDQZ changed back to a classic hits format .   Scott Robbins , longtime Bloomington/Normal host , hosted mornings on The Eagle for many years , with two different co-hosts . In April 2007 Mancow 's Morning Madhouse was added , and Robbins moved to afternoons , then off the station in August 2007 to host mornings on Cities 92.9 . In February 2008 he returned to middays on The Eagle . The syndicated Nights With Alice Cooper serves as the night show .   On August 17 , 2010 WDQZ changed its call letters to WZIM .   On April 5 , 2012 WZIM changed its format from classic hits to sports , branded as `` The Ticket '' . The move meant that Bloomington-Normal had an all-sports radio station for the first time .

neg: Daily fantasy sports Daily fantasy sports ( DFS ) are a subset of fantasy sport games . As with traditional fantasy sports games , players compete against others by building a team of professional athletes from a particular league or competition while remaining under a salary cap , and earn points based on the actual statistical performance of the players in real-world competitions . Daily fantasy sports are an accelerated variant of traditional fantasy sports that are conducted over short-term periods , such as a week or single day of competition , as opposed to those that are played across an entire season . Daily fantasy sports are typically structured in the form of paid competitions typically referred to as a `` contest '' ; winners receive a share of a pre-determined pot funded by their entry fees . A portion of entry fee payments go to the provider as rake revenue .   In the United States , the daily fantasy sports industry is dominated by two competing services : the New York-based FanDuel , and the Boston-based DraftKings . Both companies were established as venture capital-backed startup companies , received funding from investment firms , sports broadcasters , leagues , and team owners , and became known for the aggressive marketing of their services . As of September 2015 , both companies have an estimated value of at least $ 1 billion , and control 95 % of the U.S. DFS market . The two primarily compete against smaller DFS services , such as Fantasy Aces and Yahoo! Sports . The popularity of the daily fantasy format has been credited to its convenience in comparison to season-length games , as well as the focus on major cash prizes in the promotion of these services . Daily fantasy has also been credited with helping to improve television viewership and engagement with sports .   Daily fantasy sports have faced notable legal challenges , including disputes over whether DFS constitutes gambling . Politicians and other critics have argued that due to their format , players are essentially making proposition wagers on the varying performance of individual athletes in specific games , and not managing the performance of their selections on a week-to-week basis . Proponents have defended DFS as being a game of skill , as the required familiarity with the players and teams , as well as salary cap management , rewards skilled players . Local laws have varying definitions of gambling games , such as whether a game 's elements of chance are predominant over those or skill , or how much control the player has over the outcome of the game .   In the United States , the legality of DFS has been determined on a state-by-state basis based on local gambling laws and other rulings . The federal Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act ( UIEGA ) contains language dictating that fantasy sports are not considered an unlawful wager under the act ; however , the act only prohibits the electronic transfer of funds from unlawful gambling as defined under state laws . A number of state attorneys general have issued opinions concluding that DFS is a form of illegal gambling , while the state of Nevada declared that DFS games must be licensed as a sports pool . The New York State ruling , which resulted from an investigation of DFS services after it was alleged that employees working for DraftKings and FanDuel had used inside information to win cash prizes from each other , spawned retaliatory lawsuits from the companies which alleged that the rulings were the result of a misinterpretation of the nature of their services . The state has since joined other states , such as Massachusetts and Virginia , in choosing to legalize and regulate DFS rather than prohibit it .

pos: Los Angeles Los Angeles ( -LSB- lɒs_ˈændʒəlᵻs -RSB- , Spanish for `` The Angels '' ; -LSB- los ˈaŋxeles -RSB- ) , officially the City of Los Angeles and often known by its initials L.A. , is the cultural , financial , and commercial center of Southern California . With a census-estimated 2017 population of 4,042,000 , it is the second-most populous city in the United States ( after New York City ) and the most populous city in the state of California . Located in a large coastal basin surrounded on three sides by mountains reaching up to and over 10000 ft , Los Angeles covers an area of about 469 sqmi . The city is also the seat of Los Angeles County , the most populated county in the country . Los Angeles is the center of the Los Angeles metropolitan area , and is part of the larger designated Los Angeles-Long Beach combined statistical area ( CSA ) , the second most populous in the nation with a 2015 estimated population of 18.7 million .   Historically home to the Chumash and Tongva , Los Angeles was claimed by Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo for Spain in 1542 along with the rest of what would become Alta California . The city was officially founded on September 4 , 1781 , by Spanish governor Felipe de Neve . It became a part of Mexico in 1821 following the Mexican War of Independence . In 1848 , at the end of the Mexican -- American War , Los Angeles and the rest of California were purchased as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo , thereby becoming part of the United States . Los Angeles was incorporated as a municipality on April 4 , 1850 , five months before California achieved statehood . The discovery of oil in the 1890s brought rapid growth to the city . The completion of the Los Angeles Aqueduct in 1913 , delivering water from Eastern California , later assured the city 's continued rapid growth .   Nicknamed the `` City of Angels '' , Los Angeles is known for its Mediterranean climate , ethnic diversity , and sprawling metropolis . The city is also one of the most substantial economic engines within the nation , with a diverse economy in a broad range of professional and cultural fields . Los Angeles is also famous as the home of Hollywood , a major center of the world entertainment industry . A global city , it has been ranked 6th in the Global Cities Index and 9th in the Global Economic Power Index . The Los Angeles combined statistical area ( CSA ) also has a gross metropolitan product ( GMP ) of $ 831 billion , making it the third-largest in the world , after the Greater Tokyo and New York metropolitan areas .

neg: Chinese enclaves in the San Gabriel Valley Chinese communities form a substantial portion of the population of the San Gabriel Valley . The region has achieved international prominence as a hub of overseas Chinese or hua qiao . Although Chinese immigrants were a noteworthy presence in the establishment of Southern California from the 19th century , significant Chinese migration to suburban San Gabriel Valley coincided with a trend of white out-migration from the 1970s onward . This opened an opportunity for well-educated and affluent Asian Americans to begin settling in the west San Gabriel Valley , primarily to Monterey Park .   High property values and overcrowding in Monterey Park have contributed to a secondary movement away from that city , and the Chinese community is now spread over a cluster of cities in the west San Gabriel Valley . Suburban cities in the valley with large non-white populations , also called ethnoburbs , include Alhambra , Arcadia , Rosemead , San Marino , San Gabriel , South Pasadena , and Temple City and then eastward to Diamond Bar , Hacienda Heights , Rowland Heights , and Walnut . Numerous Mandarin - and Cantonese-speaking businesses have been established in these suburbs to accommodate the changing population .

Numerous other world cuisines are available throughout the city , including Portuguese , Hungarian , Japanese , and Caribbean . Toronto 's large Jewish population has also ensured a variety of Jewish restaurants and delis , with varying adherence to kosher rules . In addition to ethnic cuisines , Toronto is also home to many fine dining establishments and chain restaurants ranging from fast food to casual or upscale dining .

neg: Filipino American music Filipino Americans have a rich and long history of music in the United States . The Philippines have a rich musical context and varied influences due to indigenous traditions and early colonial influences of Spanish and American occupation . During occupation by the United States , many Filipinos were recruited for manual labor along the West Coast . These early laborers commonly would perform Spanish-influenced rondallas as well as choral groups . With many Filipinos living in the United States beginning around 1900s , Filipinos have contributed towards early Americana staples such as blues and jazz , and continue to influence more modern contemporary genres such as hip hop and rock . American music has also been influential in the Philippines for artists and vice-versa . Though contributing to the evolution of American music , large number of Filipino Americans have a strong identity with culture of the Philippines by participating or organizing traditional dances and musical performances , largely in the form of PCNs on university campuses . Traditional dances and musical performances commonly practiced in the US are rondallas , choral groups , and gong chime ensembles . College campuses often organize performances on campuses , but can also have characteristics unique to America , as many Filipino Americans want to share their experiences of living in America and perform a more neo traditional variation of traditional performances .

neg: Ethnoburb An ethnoburb is a suburban residential and business area with a notable cluster of a particular ethnic minority population . Although the group may not constitute the majority within the region , it does compose a significant amount of the population . This can greatly influence the social geography within the area because of cultural and religious traditional values exhibited . Ethnoburbs allow for ethnic minority groups to maintain their individual identity , though this may also restrict their ability to fully assimilate into mainstream culture and society .   According to Dr. Wei Li , author of many writings on the subject , the ethnoburb has resulted from `` the influence of international geopolitical and global economic restructuring , changing national immigration and trade policies , and local demographic , economic and political contexts . ''   Although many assume that an ethnoburb is composed of immigrants with a lower economic standing , this may not always be the case as many ethnoburbs are made up of wealthy and high economic status individuals in more expensive neighbourhoods and communities . For this reason , there is not always a `` one size fits all '' definition of what can be expected when examining an ethnoburb . Through comparing different locations of ethnoburbs various degrees of social characteristics , including economic standings and cultural assimilation , can be observed .

neg: California Water Wars The California Water Wars were a series of conflicts between the city of Los Angeles and farmers and ranchers in the Owens Valley of Eastern California .   As Los Angeles grew in the late 19th century , it started to outgrow its water supply . Fred Eaton , mayor of Los Angeles , realized that water could flow from Owens Valley to Los Angeles via an aqueduct . The aqueduct construction was overseen by William Mulholland and was finished in 1913 . The water rights were acquired through political fighting and , as described by one author , `` chicanery , subterfuge ... and a strategy of lies . ''   Since 1913 , the Owens River had been diverted to Los Angeles , causing the ruin of the valley 's economy . By the 1920s , so much water was diverted from the Owens Valley that agriculture became difficult . This led to the farmers trying to destroy the aqueduct in 1924 . Los Angeles prevailed and kept the water flowing . By 1926 , Owens Lake at the bottom of Owens Valley was completely dry due to water diversion .   The water needs of Los Angeles kept growing . In 1941 , Los Angeles diverted water that previously fed Mono Lake , north of Owens Valley , into the aqueduct . Mono Lake 's ecosystem for migrating birds was threatened by dropping water levels . Between 1979 and 1994 , David Gaines and the Mono Lake Committee engaged in litigation with Los Angeles . The litigation forced Los Angeles to stop diverting water from around Mono Lake , which has started to rise back to a level that can support its ecosystem .

neg: Pueblo de Los Ángeles See also History of Los Angeles   El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles ( the Town of Our Lady the Queen of the Angels ) was the Spanish civilian pueblo founded in 1781 , which by the 20th century became the American metropolis of Los Angeles .   Official settlements in Alta California were of three types : presidio ( military ) , mission ( religious ) and pueblo ( civil ) . The Pueblo de los Ángeles was the second pueblo ( town ) created during the Spanish colonization of California ( the first was San Jose , in 1777 ) . El Pueblo de la Reina de los Ángeles -- ` The Town of the Queen of Angels ' was founded twelve years after the first presidio and mission , the Presidio of San Diego and the Mission San Diego de Alcalá ( 1769 ) . The original settlement consisted of forty-four people in eleven families , recruited mostly from Estado de Occidente . As new settlers arrived and soldiers retired to civilian life in Los Angeles , the town became the principal urban center of southern Alta California , whose social and economic life revolved around the raising of livestock on the expansive ranchos .

neg: Hollywood Sign The Hollywood Sign ( formerly the Hollywoodland Sign ) is a landmark and American cultural icon located in Los Angeles , California . It is situated on Mount Lee , in the Hollywood Hills area of the Santa Monica Mountains . The sign overlooks Hollywood , Los Angeles .   `` HOLLYWOOD '' is spelled out in 45 ft-tall white capital letters and is 350 feet ( 106.7 m ) long . It was originally created in 1923 as an advertisement for a local real estate development , but it garnered increasing recognition after the sign was left up . The sign was a frequent target of pranks and vandalism , but it has since undergone restoration , including the installation of a security system to deter vandalism . The sign is protected and promoted by The Trust For Public Land , a nonprofit organization , while its site and the surrounding land are part of Griffith Park .   From the ground , the contours of the hills give the sign a wavy appearance . When observed at a comparable altitude , the letters appear nearly level .   The sign makes frequent appearances in popular culture , particularly in establishing shots for films and television programs set in or around Hollywood . Signs of similar style , but spelling different words , are frequently seen as parodies .

KIWA was founded in 1992 by progressive minded Korean activists who saw class as the basic contradiction of the immigrant communities in Koreatown . It has since been involved in the aftermath of the 1992 Los Angeles Civil Unrest , campaigns to improve working conditions and immigrant worker empowerment in various Korean ethnic industries , the living wages campaign , and Koreatown 's multi-ethnic community developments .   KIWA is perhaps best known recently for its long campaign against Assi Market , the largest ethnic Korean-owned supermarket of the United States , located in Koreatown . Started in the late 1990s , KIWA demands that Assi management rehire dozens of fired Latino and Korean workers who were fired for trying to organize a trade union .   Although initially staffed mostly by ethnic Koreans , KIWA grew to encompass Asian-Pacific American and Latino organizers and members . The Spanish language `` Alianza de trabajadores inmigrantes del Barrio Coreano '' had been in common use since the early 2000s ; however the English language name was officially changed in March 2006 from Korean Immigrant Workers Advocates to Koreatown Immigrant Workers Alliance . The Korean language '' 한인노동상담소 '' ( Korean Worker 's Center ) has been changed to 한인타운 노동연대 to signify its geographical focus rather than on an ethnic group .   KIWA is a member organization of MIWON ( Multi-Ethnic Immigrant Workers Alliance ) , an alliance of four ( formerly five ) immigrant workers ' centers in the Los Angeles area , and ENLACE , a U.S.-Mexico network of workers ' centers .

neg: New York City ethnic enclaves Since its founding in 1625 by Dutch traders as New Amsterdam , New York City has been a major destination for immigrants of many nationalities who have formed ethnic enclaves , neighborhoods dominated by one ethnicity . Freed African American slaves also moved to New York City in the Great Migration and the later Second Great Migration and formed ethnic enclaves . These neighborhoods are set apart from the main city by differences such as food , goods for sale , or even language . Ethnic enclaves provide inhabitants security in work and social opportunities , but limit economic opportunities , do not encourage the development of English speaking , and keep immigrants in their own culture .   , 36 % of the population of New York City are immigrants .  African Americans , Haitian Americans , Jamaican Americans , Indo-Caribbean Americans , and Trinidadian Americans have all formed Caribbean ethnic enclaves in New York . Asian ethnic groups with enclaves in New York include Chinese Americans , Japanese Americans , Filipino Americans , Indian Americans , Indo-Caribbean Americans , Afghan Americans , Burmese Americans , Bangladeshi Americans , Nepalese Americans , Sri Lankan Americans , Bhutanese Americans , Thai Americans , Pakistani Americans , Indonesian Americans , Malaysian Americans , Taiwanese Americans , and Korean Americans . European ethnic groups with ethnic enclaves include Greek Americans , Irish Americans , Italian Americans , Albanian Americans , Jewish Americans , Polish Americans , and Russian Americans . Latin American groups with ethnic enclaves include Dominican Americans , Guyanese , Salvadoran American , Ecuadorian American , Mexican Americans , and Puerto Ricans . Middle Eastern ethnic groups that have formed ethnic enclaves include Palestinian Americans , Jordanian Americans , Egyptian Americans , Syrian Americans and Lebanese Americans .

neg: List of place names of French origin in the United States Several thousand place names in the United States have names of French origin , some a legacy of past French exploration and rule over much of the land and some in honor of French help during the American Revolution and the founding of the country ( see also : New France and French in the United States ) . Others were named after early Americans of French , especially Huguenot , ancestry ( Marion , Revere , Fremont , Lanier , Sevier , Macon , Decatur , etc. ) . Some places received their names as a consequence of French colonial settlement ( e.g. Baton Rouge , Detroit , New Orleans , Saint Louis ) . Nine state capitals are French words or of French origin ( Baton Rouge , Boise , Des Moines , Juneau , Montgomery , Montpelier , Pierre , Richmond , Saint Paul ) - not even counting Little Rock ( originally `` La Petite Roche '' ) or Cheyenne ( a French rendering of a Lakota word ) , compared to only two that are Spanish ( Sacramento and Santa Fe ) . Fifteen state names are either French words / origin ( Delaware , New Jersey , Louisiana , Maine , Oregon , Vermont ) or Native American words rendered by French speakers ( Arkansas , Illinois , Iowa , Kansas , Michigan , Mississippi , Mississippi , Ohio , Wisconsin ) , versus nine state names that are Spanish or Spanish rendered ( Montana , California , Colorado , Florida , Montana , Nevada , New Mexico , Texas , Utah ) .   The suffix '' - ville , '' from the French word for `` city '' is common for town and city names throughout the United States . Many originally French place names , possibly hundreds , in the Midwest and Upper West were replaced with directly translated English names once American settlers became locally dominant ( e.g. `` La Petite Roche '' became Little Rock ; `` Baie Verte '' became Green Bay ; `` Grandes Fourches '' became Grand Forks ) . In contrast , Spanish place names in the Southwest were generally not replaced by English names .

neg: Los Angeles Lakers The Los Angeles Lakers are an American professional basketball team based in Los Angeles . The Lakers compete in the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) , as a member of the league 's Western Conference Pacific Division . The Lakers play their home games at Staples Center , an arena shared with the NBA 's Los Angeles Clippers , the Los Angeles Sparks of the Women 's National Basketball Association , and the Los Angeles Kings of the National Hockey League . The Lakers are one of the most successful teams in the history of the NBA , and have won 16 NBA championships , their last being in 2010 . As of 2015 , the Lakers are the second most valuable franchise in the NBA according to Forbes , having an estimated value of $ 2.7 billion .   The franchise began with the 1947 purchase of a disbanded team , the Detroit Gems of the National Basketball League ( NBL ) . The new team began playing in Minneapolis , calling themselves the Minneapolis Lakers in honor of the state 's nickname , `` Land of 10,000 Lakes '' . Initially a member of the NBL , the Lakers won the 1948 NBL championship before joining the rival Basketball Association of America and winning five of the next six BAA and NBA championships in Minneapolis after the NBA formed in 1949 . The team was propelled by center George Mikan , who is described by the NBA 's official website as the league 's `` first superstar '' . After struggling financially in the late 1950s following Mikan 's retirement , they relocated to Los Angeles before the 1960 -- 61 season .   Led by Hall of Famers Elgin Baylor and Jerry West , Los Angeles made the NBA Finals six times in the 1960s , but lost each series to the Boston Celtics , beginning their long and storied rivalry . In 1968 , the Lakers acquired four-time NBA Most Valuable Player ( MVP ) Wilt Chamberlain to play center , and after losing in the Finals in 1969 and 1970 , they won their sixth NBA title -- and first in Los Angeles -- in 1972 , led by new head coach Bill Sharman . After the retirement of West and Chamberlain , the team acquired another center , Kareem Abdul-Jabbar , who had won multiple MVP awards , but was unable to make the Finals in the late 1970s . The 1980s Lakers were nicknamed `` Showtime '' due to their Magic Johnson-led fast break-offense , and won five championships in a 9-year span , including their first ever Finals championship against the Celtics in 1985 . This team featured Hall of Famers in Johnson , Abdul-Jabbar , and James Worthy , and a Hall of Fame coach , Pat Riley . After Abdul-Jabbar and Johnson 's retirement , the team struggled in the early 1990s before acquiring Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant in 1996 . Led by O'Neal , Bryant , and another Hall of Fame coach , Phil Jackson , Los Angeles won three consecutive titles between 2000 to 2002 , securing the franchise its second `` three-peat '' . After losing both the 2004 and 2008 NBA Finals , the Lakers won two more championships by defeating the Orlando Magic in 2009 and Boston in 2010 .   The Lakers hold the record for NBA 's longest winning streak , 33 straight games , set during the 1971 -- 72 season . 21 Hall of Famers have played for Los Angeles , while four have coached the team . Four Lakers -- Abdul-Jabbar , Johnson , O'Neal , and Bryant -- have won the NBA MVP Award for a total of eight awards .

They compete in the Premier League , England 's highest division of football , and are the former champions winning in the 2015-16 season . Having been promoted as champions of the Football League Championship in 2013 -- 14 , this signalled a return to the top flight of English football after a decade away .   The club was founded in 1884 as Leicester Fosse F.C. , playing on a field near Fosse Road . They moved to Filbert Street in 1891 , were elected to the Football League in 1894 and adopted the name Leicester City in 1919 .

Leicester City won the 2015 -- 16 Premier League , their first top-level football championship . They are one of only six clubs to have won the Premier League since its inception in 1992 . A number of newspapers described their title win as the greatest sporting upset ever , considering at the start of the season they were favourites to face relegation . Multiple bookmakers had never paid out at such long odds for any sport . Due to the magnitude of the club 's title win , it went down in English football history as one of the game 's finest ever achievements . The club 's previous highest ever finish was second place in the top flight , in Division One in 1928 -- 29 . Throughout Leicester 's history , they have spent all but one season within the top two leagues of English football .
