what's rude about a body?

totally fine with mcatee, he can do a job, and help turn games around or see them out I don't get Randall and he's one of the strangest signings I've seen all things considered I hope for all concerned he can find a new club one way or another

so last year some bloke from Texas got in touch via my website has two website's he want's me to look after as in, each month, I back them up, update the site plugins, and test all working ok then send him an invoice for £100 - it takes 5 minutes, easy money he's a fucking crank like these are his websites where you buy a PDF he's written that tells you about the truth of god, and also global warming https://www.spiritofmind.net/ Spirit of Mind is a true Spiritual Belief System and A True Perspective about God and spirituality for people worldwide regardless of their faith or religion, or if they have no particular faith or belief system at all. In other words, Spirit of Mind is a universal modern and true spiritual belief system for all persons of faith, religion, and non-believers too. Book 1 describes beyond religion how people worldwide have always been deceived, therefore misled about everyone’s God, and always deceived about what everyone’s true God really is? https://www.globalwarmingtruths.com/ After reviewing the proof and evidence provided by this Website, you will know that human activity global warming and climate change is not true. That this misguided untruth was made-up by deceitful and misinformed people. After reading and learning about the indisputable evidence provided by this Website, you and others will then know what actually causes Earth’s global warmingand climate change. his sites get zero traffic or sales anyway out the blue he just sent me this Hi Dave, The "Spirt of Mind" website is not functioning properly, and you seem not to be unaware of a product that is very important for you and everyone worldwide that has meaningful truths and realities for you and everyone else. I am paying you $150/mo to oversee my products that you do not seem to appreciate. Unless you understand that this is not "business as usual" and agree to help with a cause much greater than you and me, I will be required to move on to someone who is more observant and willing to look outside themselves for something more important than just "business s usual". Just think of the harm that you have caused you, you family and friends, about not wanting to share the website truths about Spirt of Mind to help them have a much better life experience. I am inclined to move on based on your absence of neglect, morality, and wanting to ignore important truths about everyone's existence that you should have figured out by now. The decision is yours, and for you and your support team to ignore about what I am saying and promoting is not good for your family and friends. Please let me know your response? I know that you are compliant about what a normal person would expect, however what you have failed to realize is that this is not "business as usual", and that you are not aware of realities beyond just you and your you, your family and friends. Therefore, not being very observant that this is not "business as usual" does not look good for you, your family, and friends. List to them more. Your response to this email reality will determine if I will continue with you as a steward for something much more important than both you, your family, and me? Please give this more consideration than you have been. Your future and your karma will depend on it Carl Fisher Author Spirit of Mind

it all comes back to human instruction if AI rewrite code or hacks a system, it's because it's been told to e.g. “keep editing this file until it runs faster”. the threat isn't that AI will break free and rewrite its own instructions out of nowhere of it's own free will the threat is that humans will give it broad instructions, give it access to powerful tools, and fail to anticipate the unexpected or catastrophic shortcuts it takes to fulfill those instructions I'd never heard of silent spring, but, had a look and it's pretty much the same thing I'm talking about the pesticide wasn't the problem, it did exactly what humans wanted it to, it killed insects, the issue was humans didn't consider the consequences and oversights that meant it caused my more damage than intended it wasn't the pesticides fault

Sharon & Co have done a great job in steadying the ship, getting us on the up, running the business and ehancing our reputation (at least from our fans point of view) then they bring in a guy who makes Ken Anderson looks like an honest guy but they're not running the show or got any major degree of control over things, so nothing to worry about right now seems to me initally they are just here to do stuff with the infrastrucuture that FV can't / are unable to

maybe write it 100 times or something so it doesn't happen again

they sold him for £20m and Lukaku for £28m (though they bought him for £10m) they sold KDB for £18m (£11m profit) £5m profit on Salah all whilst maintaining a team challenging for and winning trophies it clearly works well for them regardless if these players eventually go on to do well elsewhere they all had to go elsewhere and prove themselves before getting a really big move

seems he was given £5m to lead the party can't see him walking

yeah will see if I can switch that off

Sharon Brittan: Creating Sustainable Success at Bolton Wa...Caring, committed and courageous, Sharon Brittan is living proof that Football Clubs can achieve sustainable success under the right leadership. Sharon Brittan: Creating Sustainable Success at Bolton WanderersLong Reads 14 Jun Words: Jack Wylie Share Caring, committed and courageous, Sharon Brittan is living proof that Football Clubs can achieve sustainable success under the right leadership. Bolton Wanderers’ chairman has conviction in her beliefs and refuses to compromise in her pursuit of taking the Whites back to the top flight, while maintaining a stable economic structure. She explains: “I was very clear on how I would run a Football Club, with the right people doing the right job in the right way, with ethics, morals, principles, trust and transparency at the heart of everything. “You need people who are bought into the vision and the journey, because this is a business that is full of noise. We want the noise to be on the pitch, with peace and quiet off the pitch, so we can all get on with our jobs and have fun.“Each and every component has to come together for success. One thing that is a guarantee is that there will be highs and there will be lows – we share them all as one. “We've got a culture here. It sounds a bit of a cliché, but I feel that we have created a family at Bolton Wanderers Football Club. We certainly feel proud of it and a lot of people from within the football world and outside of the football world are talking about it, which is really positive.” In 2019, Bolton Wanderers was in freefall, with a desperate financial situation, a disengaged fanbase and a detached relationship with its community. Fast forward to the present, it’s a Club reborn, with a foundation in place to rise and rise. On and off the pitch, its future looks healthy. Brittan recalls: “I will never forget the day I walked into this Football Club in August 2019. Devastation seems like a really powerful word, but it was devastation. People had not been paid. They were unable to pay their mortgages. They were unable to pay their rent. Their anxiety was heightened. Their mental health and wellbeing had suffered. Devastation means great physical damage or extreme emotional sadness. It describes a state of total ruin or a deep feeling of being overwhelmed by shock and grief. [1, 2, 3, 4] Physical Damage Great destruction over a wide area Leaving a place in ruins or left as waste Common causes include storms, fires, and wars [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Emotional Impact Extreme sadness or distress Feeling completely broken or shocked by an event [1, 2] “I'm not sure that people ever realise quite how much goes on behind the scenes in the running of a Football Club – the amount of work is enormous. It’s a huge responsibility to own a Football Club and people need to be very, very clear on that before they do this. “We know what happens when a Club gets into the wrong hands. Here, we’re responsible custodians and I know that the EFL, because I’ve worked closely with Rick Parry, are doing everything they can to ensure the owner’s fit and proper test is rigorous.” Almost four years on from saving the Club’s existence – with the help and support of a key group of initial investors – Brittan is admired and adored by the Wanderers faithful. Win or lose, they know they’re on the right track with her at the helm. She continues: “When I came here, people had lost faith – the staff, the fans, the stakeholders, the community, everybody had fallen out of love with this Football Club. We had to come in and start from the bottom, and that doesn’t happen quickly. “I thought the only way I'm going to earn the trust of the fans and the community is by being visible. They need to see me, they need to know me, they need to understand me, they need to hear me. Being an invisible owner wouldn't have worked for the journey that we want to take the Football Club on. “I have a lot of communication with people in the community, with people at the university, with people at the Council. This is one of the largest towns in the UK and we should be singing from the same hymn sheet. I think the fans seem to be loving it now and we’re all proud of this journey. “When I left Barnsley after the Play-Off Semi-Final Second Leg, I was waiting to be let out and our fans were leaving in the coaches and they were banging on the windows, shouting at me saying the most wonderful things – and we’d just lost! We weren’t going to play in the Final and they were still shouting messages of support. That’s really, really special.” The financial sustainability of the game has been the focal point of discussions for a long period, with the Fan Led Review White Paper on Reforming Club Football Governance representing a once-in-a- generation opportunity to address the systemic issues that football has been unable to sort itself over the last 30 years. Brittan has implemented her own measures to protect the future of the Greater Manchester Club. “It’s really hard work to make a Football Club sustainable, but it’s our duty to run the Football Club in a smart way,” she admits. “I respect everybody’s money and I want people’s investment to be well spent. I think we’ve got a proven record of doing just that. “Four years in, we are running a sustainable Football Club in an organised and responsible manner. Doing that avoids the scenario of having the huge highs and then when the owner funding stops, you collapse. That's what can't happen. “I’ve talked to so many of our fans and I think they appreciate our approach. They’ve said to me, ‘Sharon, we want responsible owners – we don’t want the boom and bust’. “I am a great believer, first and foremost, that while we’re on the pitch for 90 minutes, there is no-one more competitive than me. I really like to win. But outside of that, we should all be collaborating and working together to ensure the future stability of the pyramid.” In constructing her financial model, Brittan has been innovative in her methods to raise funds. Wanderers launched an investment bond in May for supporters and other interested parties to support the future development of the Club. Within eight days, the funding target of £3.5 million had been achieved. “When you do initiatives like the Wanderers Bond – in order to maintain our financial position and be competitive – it will only work if you’ve got trust around you,” she adds. “To have raised so much in such a short space of time just completely humbles me, and every single penny of that will go back into this Football Club, every single penny. “My original four investors in 2019 – and our wonderful Swiss consortium who joined us in early 2022 – thought I was having a midlife crisis. However, thankfully, they bought into the idea that we were going to do things differently in football, alongside creating a platform to do good. “Suddenly, we've got people coming to us with money, because they believe in what we’re doing and they want to be part of this movement and this journey. We're fully funded for the season ahead, and it's extraordinary from where we were. “I think the fans know me well enough now to know that I'm very driven, I'm very determined and I know exactly where we want and need to be. I have enjoyed the last two seasons, but next season, we want to start in the right way and finish in the right way.” On the pitch, the Trotters continue to go from strength to strength under the leadership of manager Ian Evatt. Having secured promotion from Sky Bet League Two at the first time of asking in 2020/21, Wanderers have made gradual progress in the third tier, finishing ninth and fifth, although Play- Off success evaded them in May. “We were disappointed that we lost to Barnsley, but when we look back and reflect, we're very happy with our progress,” Brittan notes. “Next season, I want us to have automatic promotion – that is our aim. “I am very ambitious and I'd like to take this Club from the brink of liquidation back to the Premier League where it belongs. That’s the journey we’ve subscribed to and I, more than anyone, want to fulfil that.” Although they fell short of promotion, Evatt’s side did deliver silverware in the form of the Papa Johns Trophy, with the comprehensive 4-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle at Wembley Stadium marking a significant milestone in the Club’s resurgent run. “It was an utterly magical, perfect day,” Brittan recollects, gleefully. “It couldn't have been scripted any better. It showcased Ian, the players, the fans, the Club, the togetherness, the journey. It was a day I will never forget. “In my mind, I thought about what I saw when we arrived in 2019. Then, to see the number of fans there and the success we had on the pitch at Wembley, I was very, very emotional.” WATCH: Go behind the scenes of the Papa Johns Trophy Final 2023 Report: Bolton Wanderers cruise to victory in the Papa Johns Trophy Final Gallery: Wanderers Win at Wembley The Club’s welcoming culture at the top has filtered down into the dressing room, with Brittan and Evatt sharing a close bond, while loan players like Conor Bradley and James Trafford have been able to flourish in a settled environment. “I have a very close relationship with Ian Evatt,” she states. “Somebody gave me some advice very early on to not have a close relationship with the manager, because they're transient and they come and go. I thought that's the opposite of what I want to be. “I don't want our manager to feel that he's transient and that it's only a matter of time before he's gone. I want our manager to feel that he's part of a journey, and that's where I think we are different. transient Transient means lasting for only a short time, temporary, or staying in a place briefly. You can explore more detailed definitions and usage notes on the Cambridge Dictionary. [1, 2] Common Meanings Adjective: Describes things like a quick feeling, a short-lived trend, or temporary weather. Noun: Refers to a person who moves from place to place or stays somewhere for only a short time, such as a seasonal worker. Science and Physics: Means a brief change or short-lived surge in a system, like a sudden spike of voltage in an electrical circui “When you build a culture, you build relationships, and that's exactly what we've done. We've built relationships with Liverpool, with Manchester City, with Manchester United. They know that this is a trusted place for their players to come to. “We want them to progress here, so that when they leave, they're in a much better place than when they arrived. I think that's very clear to see with a few of the players we’ve had this season and that's enhanced our relationship with those Clubs, so that we can talk again and hopefully they'll see us as trusted custodians of their players.”From the outset, Brittan made no secret of her desire to use the Football Club’s platform to do good in the local area. In July 2021, she appointed Neil Hart as the new Chief Executive Officer, with his prior experience at Burnley FC in the Community viewed as a key factor in bringing community focus to the forefront of the Club’s priorities. His efforts were recently recognised at the Football Business Awards, where he was named League One CEO of the Year. Alongside Bolton Wanderers in the Community CEO Phil Mason, there is now significant collaboration between Club and Trust, adopting a ‘One Club, One Community, One Town’ identity. “I always felt that the Club and the Community Trust should work together and be intrinsically linked,” says Brittan. “The bigger the platform we can get, the more good that we can do, and the community side is equally as important to me as the football. “There are a huge amount of initiatives that are delivered to appeal to everyone in the town – all ages, all genders, all faiths, all cultures. Everyone is welcomed and embraced through the doors of this Football Club." Keen to put her words into action, Brittan often attends community events and has spearheaded multiple charity walks that have raised funds that will be put towards a new Wellbeing Hub. “I absolutely love the community activities – I love the walks and I love keeping fit,” she says. “We have this amazing interaction and I see the impact of the events and the programmes on the people in this town for their mental health and wellbeing, which is fabulous because people are struggling. “It was hard before the pandemic and now everybody's anxiety and mental health and wellbeing has been heightened. I think if we can provide a space which is safe for people to come to, it's brilliant. “I also had an evening with the Muslim community during Ramadan, where we broke the fast together and the tickets for the evening were taken up within 24 hours. More of the Muslim community are coming to games and engaging with the Club now – it’s brilliant. “I also hear from supporters all the time who write to me or approach me to tell me their stories and explain what Bolton Wanderers means to them. “It’s a regular occurrence that men and women alike will become incredibly emotional when they talk to me about what it means to see the place full of life again after coming so close to losing the Football Club they love so much. “So many have gone from desperation to once again enjoying football with their families and friends. Their stories never cease to amaze me. Things like that are very rewarding and make the work we do worthwhile.” In all aspects, the Bolton Wanderers model is a blueprint to follow. A sustainable financial standing, a thriving community programme, an award-winning supporter engagement strategy – scooping the EFL Fan Engagement Award in April – and a successful team on the pitch, Sharon Brittan, along with her fellow board members and investors, has transformed a Club in turmoil into one primed to prosper. “My ambition is to make a difference to people's lives and to ensure that this Football Club is on a firm footing – because it's going to be here a long time after me – and ensure that it never, ever finds itself in the place that it was in when I arrived,” she affirms. “The next steps are to continue to progress, and that's what we're planning for. That's what I'm working at with my team of incredible people. On the pitch, we want to get to the Championship. Off the pitch, we want to continue to make a difference to people's lives who need help in various ways. “Everything we're doing is for a reason. We have 300,000 people living in Bolton and how this Club is run impacts on their lives. I will not let them down.” The town of Bolton in Greater Manchester, England, has an urban population of approximately 184,000, while the wider Metropolitan Borough of Bolton has an estimated population of 310,085. [1, 2] Other places named Bolton include small locations in the United States, Canada, and Australia, which have significantly smaller populations.
