Why are Chelsea STILL at loggerheads with Antonio Conte? - Duration: 7:35.It is rapidly becoming football's equivalent of . Everyone thinks it is going to happen but nobody knows for certain when it will be
Negotiations continue with both sides at odds and no end seemingly in sight.All it needs now is for Danny Dyer to deliver a brilliant, sweary outburst on live television - and given he is West Ham and this involves Chelsea - do not rule that out
's departure from Stamford Bridge – Chexit, if you will – lingers on. More than 40 days and 40 nights have now passed since the Italian watched his side defeat Manchester United and lift the FA Cup in what was widely recognised as the final act in his west London run before Maurizio Sarri takes over the show, fresh from his departure at Napoli
The good news for all concerned is that significant movement, smail understands, is due in the next few days
There have been reports that the hold-up is at the Napoli end. Forget that. This one, is all about Antonio
Some wondered if the former Juventus and Italy coach, hair drenched in champagne and glistening silverware at the side of him, would even announce his farewell under the arch
Going out with a trophy under the arm is always a good look for the fashion conscious
But it did not happen. Then a week passed and it still did not happen. Then a month
And here we are. On July 9, 0 days from now, Chelsea's non- players are due to report back to leafy Cobham
40 DAYS OF SILENCE Chelsea beat Man Utd in the FA Cup final. Roman Abramovich's UK visa is not renewed by Office
Napoli hire Carlo Ancelotti as new head coach but DON'T sack Maurizio Sarri. Napoli reportedly lower Sarri's exit clause from £9m to £4
5m.Victor Moses admits he has no idea who will be in charge of the club next season
In three weeks' time they are due to depart for their curiously-assembled summer tour which sees them head for Perth,, before playing against Inter Milan five days later in Nice
It is no wonder Victor Moses, when stopped in the mixed zone following Nigeria's heartbreaking exit at the hands of Argentina, sounded frustrated
'I don't know yet, to be honest,' he said when asked by the Evening Standard if he knew when he was expected back at his club
'I might get a call later on tonight and will find out how long I've got off.' When pressed on who would be making that call, Moses responded 'I don't know
' Moses will know all about Conte's complex character. The man spent a season delivering quotes designed to wind the Chelsea top brass up
It worked. Now he is digging his heels in over his departure. This is a man who is not afraid of confrontation and for who stubbornness is something you are born with
Can Conte be blamed? Not really. He will feel that if he is going, he wants the £9m or so remaining on his contract
He may well get his own way. Push is now coming to shove. Sarri's release clause with Napoli, expires on July
There is nothing to say that an agreement could not be reached after then. Napoli, after all, have already named his replacement, Carlo Ancelotti
But Chelsea are well aware of the need for speed and there may well be movement this weekend
Agreement for Sarri, however, can only become official when Conte's situation is resolved
There is an increasing confidence that this will soon be the case. Meanwhile, pre-season approaches rapidly
The transfer deadline this year is August . As of yet there have been no incomings and senior players are understood to be harbouring concerns
The , however, is hindering progress more than the managerial situation and there is a relaxed confidence that additions will arrive
There have been reports that Conte has planned a suitably rigorous pre-season training schedule should the remain option end up winning after all
A U-turn – even if it would not need a second referendum – is unlikely.

Why can Trading Systems stop working? - Duration: 5:59.Hi guys, hi from Andrea Unger.
Today I would like to discuss about why...a question which often happens to arise...
Why do trading system deliver worse performance in live trading rather than in backtest?
So actually this is a common question because people work, develop a trading system and
once it goes live after a while it delivers poorer performance or it even becomes a loser.
The point is that on one side obviously we tend to develop something that looks nice,
because you would not try something that loses money and even though we might be skilled
we might be smart enough, we will somehow insert some level of overfitting, which means
we will insert rules that even though are logical, force a little bit the system and
therefore adapt too much on the past.
It's like if we go to a tailor and we get a suit and we use measures from our body which
are not the very last but are an average of a diary we kept over the years and therefore
once we have our new suit we put it on and we discover that we put on weight and so we
no longer fit exactly how we wished into it, which is...
It does not be we have to take the very last condition of the market of course, it's just
an example of how average measures of the past not always meet the expectations of the
future.
So let's say, we can limit obviously over fitting we can limit it based on our experience
on our common sense and so on, but than there is another point.
When we develop a system we normally find an edge in the market, some inefficiency that
is there.
The point is that we are not the only one out there doing this and the higher the number
of traders discovering that inefficiency the weaker the inefficiency starts to become,
which means that the higher number of traders trading a certain edge in the market the lower
the edge comes out to be.
If we discover, we know, that we can enter here and exit here for some reason and we
do it, if we are hundred thousand doing the same, each other would try to maybe enter
a bit higher and exit a little bit earlier and that kills the inefficiency itself.
At the end it is no longer an advantage for anybody.
It's like when you go on holiday, on vacation and you come back on Sunday and everybody
comes back on Sunday so obviously it creates an awful amount of traffic so there is the
clever, the smart return on Monday and that was something I did myself and people did
it and they found no traffic but slowly more and more people started coming back on Monday
and at the end of this story also on Monday there were queues all over the roads.
So the solution would be either you come back on a normal... on one of the days or you come back
on Tuesday, which might be possible, but it might create problems on your job for example,
because you need one extra day off and at the end of the all story you have no longer
a real advantage on coming back on Tuesday, because ok, you don't find a queue on the
road but you need an extra day off which is not what you desire or even not what your
boss wants you to do.
So the same thing is on the markets, it might happen that we find an edge we trade it but
if the edge becomes so small at the end the gain we could make out of that edge is no
longer compensating the costs that we face to trade that edge.
So if I gain 10 and I spend 20 to trade those 10 I'm an idiot or obviously I should avoid
doing that, this is the point.
So, overfitting, even kept to a minimum level somehow goes into the systems.
Each rule we had is sort of over fitting and this is something that we cannot avoid.
We can avoid the heavy overfitting, well, we put rules just to clean up the system as
much as possible, but we will never avoid completely a small level of overfitting.
On the other side, the edges in the market tend to disappear or to become smaller and
smaller depending on the number of players that discover these edges.
This is the main reason why things that worked in the past may stop working or work to a
much lower extent in the future.
This is it, I hope it helped, this is the reason why you have to be... keep on being
curious and study and always try to find new ways to trade markets, new instrument.
You've always to be active with your mind in the markets see you next time ciao from
Andrea Unger.

PepperMinute: Be clear why they will buy from you - Duration: 1:19.Do you know I was talking with somebody recently who is very successful and one
of the key attributes they believe is that they finally understood why people
bought from them. For ages they you know they were hit and miss as a lot of
people are with selling something. Sometimes they won and sometimes they
lost and they always thought it was down to the product or the service
and all that sort of stuff. He said I realised what it is that people buy and
I've realised they buy me, more importantly they buy the value set I
provide from the business that I am in front of - which is a family business of
course. I totally agree with it, family businesses have got an edge and
that edge is that they promote their own family values and people more and more
and more are buying into values. They don't want to deal with a faceless
corporate entity. They want to deal with people who have true values and family
businesses are brilliant for that so my suggestion to you is to understand why
people buy from you. It's probably to do with the values of your business and of
you as an individual.

What are the benefits of a revised SI? - Duration: 3:01.There are a lot of benefits.
If you think of the [current] kilogramme it can fall down.
Or you scratch it.
So, you are losing a part of the kilogramme.
The result would be that the whole universe would get heavier.
This obviously cannot happen with constants, the numerical values which you have fixed.
So they are fixed and they are graved in stone forever.
The system becomes more stable.
This is one of the very important ingrediencies.
The second one is, for instance that you can realise the units everywhere in the world.
You don't need to go to Paris in order to compare your kilogramme with that kilogramme.
But you can do an experiment in your own laboratory, also in industry, in calibration laboratories
and realise the kilogramme – so to say – by yourself.
You have to make sure that the experiment is correct and compared, but otherwise you
can realise it in your laboratory.
Another big advantage.
Another big advantage is that we then would have a coherent system.
So, we define these defining constants and we use the equations of nature, of physics,
and out of that the units emerge.
So, it is a coherent, consistent system, based on our present knowledge.
It is perfectly possible to connect now these measurements, these sensors to the internet
for instance.
Because it's as I said, you don't need to go to Paris for the kilogramme but you
have it in your laboratory.
You can automatically calibrate, you can bring these calibrated values into the internet.
The internet of things and the industry 4.0 is perfectly connected to that - another example.
Electrical units are, as I said before, back in the SI.
So, we have a wonderful and good system.
And very importantly, maybe the most important thing is that we think that we trigger a lot
of innovation in industry.
Because now, everybody in the world could say "Okay, here are these defining constants
and I have an equation connecting them and giving or connecting them to a unit.
And then I only need to invent a certain experiment finally, to realise the unit by my own."
And maybe better than it was before.
So, we can become better and better and better without changing the definition.
This is one of the big advantages: There is no limit in accuracy how we can realise the
units.
It's only limited by our technical possibilities but not by the definition.
If you look at the [current] kilogramme for instance, you can never be better than the
properties of this artefact.
This will not be the case [in the future].
And this actually we think, will then also trigger innovation in measurement industry.

Why Do CogMission Focus on Dementia and Alzheimer's Disease? - Duration: 1:59.I have a family reason.
I've seen what it has done in my family.
But also, I have one of the genes for Alzheimer's so for me it's very much a personal mission
to prevent it for myself, and at the same time, wanting to offer something for my patients.
Up until now, when people came in and said 'There's this diagnosis of Alzheimer's', there
was absolutely nothing we could do.
And it feels so disempowering when you don't have any tools.
We have something now which we can see is working.
For me personally, I'm doing it for myself and then for others as well.
It's the one condition that, when you see the prevalence, it's now the leading cause
of death for women in the UK.
That's frightening.
And we see patients on a daily basis - before we discovered Dr Bredesen - we already have patients with serious cognitive problems
Just to feel that there is actually something that will potentially make a difference.
And this is groundbreaking, this is right at the very beginning of this program and
just to be part of that, and to actually have something to offer, is just incredible.
And then, nearly every single person we see is affected somehow.
Whether it's a parent, or a grandparent, it just seems, with it being the number one in
the UK at the moment for women - everybody's affected, everybody knows somebody who's being affected.

Eclipse 2018: Why do Christians fear the July Blood Moon? Is it the end of the world? - Duration: 4:53.Next month, on the night of Friday, July , the full moon will disappear into Earth's shadow and reemerge as the red Blood Moon
Scores of Christian conspiracy theorists who follow the moon's movement have interpreted this event as a fulfilment of Biblical prophecy
End time preachers point towards the Book of Revelations which speaks of the moon turning into blood when earthquakes shake the earth and the sun turns black
Conspiracists at the Endtime Ministries claim the moon will turn red before the "great and terrible day of the Lord"
Preacher Irvin Baxter said: "God has at times used stars and used the heavens to indicate things to mankind
"Now let's talk about the prophecy of the moon being turned into blood. "Joel 2:3 says in the end time: 'And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood and fire, and pillars of smoke
"'The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord come
'"Eclipse 28: Some Christian preachers claim the Bible foretold the July Blood Moon The same biblical passages were cited by popular preacher Pastor Paul Begley, who targets online audiences on YouTube
According to Pastor Begley, we are already in the end times and are now waiting for the return of themessiah
He said in his latest Blood Moon prophecy update: "These Blood Moons always happen on significant days of prophecy
"And if you study the Blood Moons of 24 and 25 – the four Blood Moons Pastor Mark Biltz and Pastor John Hagee made everyone aware of back in 24, in 25 – they happened on the Feast of Passover and on the Feast of Tabernacle
"What's happening now?Wellthe Blue Blood Moon in January was showing us that something was going to happen with Jerusalem and with Israel on its 7th year
"But what is this Blood Moon saying? Is this the sign that a peace agreement going to happen? The Covenant of Many? "Or is it telling us a brutal war will happen in the Middle East? "We don't know yet, that's why you watch these signs in the heavens, you watch these signs of what's going on on Earth and you keep and eye on Biblical prophecy because we're living in the last days
"Eclipse 28: The Blood Moon will rise on the night of Friday, July Eclipse 28: A number of passages in the Bible mention the moon turning red in the end times Pastor Begley added he believes "something Biblical" is about to happen before the second coming of Jesus Christ
However, most Christian theologians will agree the Bible does not specify the time or day of the end of the world
And astronomers will further stress the Blood Moon eclipse is a common astronomical occurrence which happens at least twice a year on average
During the July eclipsethe moon will pass through Earth's shadow cast by the sun and change colour due to refracted sunlight in the atmosphere

Why Are Americans Not Crazy About The World Cup? - Duration: 6:43.Hi everyone! I'm Lauren from Peas in a Pod! And it's finally the World Cup!
Yay?
So I know that the World Cup is really important to a lot of people.
And they take a lot of national pride in it and people get really excited about it and really into it!
Um, so just for an example a couple days ago at work
I was talking to one of my co-workers and she was watching the game
on her computer while she was working.
So then I ask, "Oh, how's America doing?"
So that was a little bit awkward when she just kind of looked at me was like, "Oh... America didn't make it..."
And that kinda just demonstrates how little I know about the World Cup and I think sort of how little most
Americans know about the World Cup, it's not something that's....you know, really on our periphery.
But I know that a lot of people are really confused as to why Americans just aren't into it.
Soccer really isn't an '"American Made" sport.
So what I mean by that is that Americans like to have a sense of ownership
in the sports that are really big in our country. So baseball, football, basketball...
Like these aren't sports that we necessarily Invented, but they are sports that
we've kind of modified into the modern version that they are now.
And we don't really have that connection with soccer. Soccer came up completely independently of Americans.
So there isn't that, you know, that cultural connection.
There isn't that history behind it. And I think that's part of the reason why
Americans kind of feel disconnected from soccer in general.
Soccer tends to be kinda slow.
Ha!
Ha!
Ha!
So you can go the entire match and it might end in a tie or it might end,
you know, zero to one and it just seems like a lot of time and energy being invested in watching a game where
the winning score might literally just be one point. So I think Americans don't really have the patience for that.
And I think that that's part of the reason why Americans just aren't really into soccer.
There aren't really any big American soccer stars.
So, you know, famous athletes like Babe Ruth or Michael Jordan. Now, I don't like baseball. I don't like basketball
But I know who both of those people are, you know, I would recognize them in a picture.
I would be able to tell you random facts about their lives and that's just from, you know, being an American
living here in the culture. You kind of pick up those things because those people
are kind of legends. You know, they're larger than life.
And we just don't have any soccer stars that have quite reached that. So maybe one day.
You know, maybe if we have a soccer star who is just amazing
Maybe they'll be able to kind of energize American soccer fans,
but at the moment we just don't have the star power.
One thing that you see in soccer a lot is people will fake injuries.
Faking injuries is something that I think doesn't really.... I think a lot of Americans just don't like it.
And I think part of it is because we do have a lot of really heavy contact sports.
So we have American football. We have hockey.
And these are sports that if people get hurt they are seriously hurt. It's not something that you fake.
And I think that it annoys Americans when, you know, the referee has to spend a lot of time
and slow down the entire game because someone is faking an injury, when in reality they're completely fine.
A really big reason why Americans aren't into soccer is that we're not very good at it.
Um as,
you know, shown by the fact that we didn't even make it into the World Cup this year. So yeah Americans
tend to really like to win things and we don't really win at soccer
Or at least the men don't win at soccer because, when it comes to women's soccer,
Americans are crushing it!
The women's soccer team is the most successful women's team internationally.
We have four gold medals and three World Cups!
Unfortunately, they don't really get, you know, the attention that they deserve
or the respect that they deserve.
So I've just spent a lot of time explaining why soccer isn't popular in America, but having said that,
soccer is more popular in America now than at any other point in American history.
Also America has put in a joint bid to host the 2022
20.....22....
World Cup with Canada and Mexico.
So maybe if America hosts it they will kind of start to pay more attention to the World Cup
and maybe you'll see some real energy from American fans.
So I hope that this video has helped to explain why Americans aren't
all that enthusiastic about the World Cup.
But please don't let that discourage you from talking to your American friends about the World Cup!
At the very least we will enjoy your enthusiasm for the game.
