Fortunate NBA Champions (2001-2016)
Writing for The Pudding, Russell Samora recently put together a list of the "most ethical" NBA champions, wherein he used a formula (with many entertaining graphs) to determine, going back to 2001, which NBA champions benefited the least and most from missed games against their playoff rivals. I followed the NBA closely for most of...

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 06-09-26

I missed two days of Pook-Emu Bee links. But it is not all bad: Now we have even more links from around the web to choose from. 1. Why I Built Bubbles (Ben at Bubbles Blog. March 26, 2026.) I've been an RSS obsessive for years. Hundreds of feeds, hand-picked one by one. But RSS...

Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 04-22-26
The drags on, but the Pook-Emu Bee links are strong. Or so I tell myself, at least. 1, Italy Summons Russian Ambassador After Propagandist Calls Giorgia Meloni 'Whore' (Christian K. Caruzo for Breitbart. April 22, 2026.) That is not nice. Is Russian TV (which the Russian government has absolutely no control over, we are assured)...
