|Equity: Why Employee Ownership Is Good For Business
|Corey Rosen, John Case and Martin Staubus
|How employee ownership can pay bottom-line benefits? Today, more than 25 percent of American workers own stock in their employers. You can shop at employee-owned supermarkets such as Publix, buy Gore-Tex fabric from employee-owned W.L. Gore & Associates, and sip coffee served by employee owners at Starbucks. Now Corey Rosen, John Case, and Martin Staubus present convincing evidence that employee ownership can be much more than just a good benefit program. Done right, it can be the foundation for a new - and more effective - model of management. Drawing on first-hand studies of dozens of companies from large corporations to local retailers, the authors show that the "equity model" enables firms to grow faster and more profitably than conventionally run competitors. Vivid examples of both winning and failed attempts at employee ownership reveal the key concepts that make the model successful, and suggest how managers can adapt these strategies for use in their own companies. This lively and practical guide delivers a sound business case for making employees true partners in a firm's success.

Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio has been elected the new Pope. He has chosen the papal name Pope Francis.
Here are the facts:
-- He staunchly opposes gay marriage and abortion
-- He's from Argentina
-- He's 76 years old
-- He's the son of Italian immigrants
-- He's the first Latin-American pope ... and the first from the Americas
-- He's known for his advocacy on behalf of the poor, primarily in his home country
1:50 PM PT -- President Barack Obama has already commented on the election on Pope Francis ... saying, "I look forward to working with His Holiness to advance peace, security, and dignity for our fellow human beings."
Is he available for the memorial service of Justin's hamster?
I'll continue to wait for a Black Pope! Many Blessing however to Pope Bergoglio, love Italians!
DAN IT, I JUST LOST FIDDY BUCKS, i bet it was the black guy....how many kids has this one molested
C) over 200
That's a relief.
Him and I have the same birthday............I hate religion though, too bad cause maybe this would of meant better presents in the future or something....lol RELIGION = CULT
Special skill - sweeping child abuse under the carpet.
And the new Pope is.....Catholic again.
Looks like a guy that loves a good party.
Great, now we can stop watching the freakin' chimney.
This guy said that gays were lead by the devil. So.... another one that's gonna take catholics even more into the stone age. Way to go !
Awesome! More closed-mindedness! Cool!
This guy is not god, he is not Jesus, and he is not a deity. He is just unfortunately worshiped as though he is all of those things
Meet the new boss...same as the old boss.

A prominent venture capitalist, Wal van Lierop, of Chrysalix Energy Venture Capital, has begun to invest in companies (such as General Fusion) who are providing patents and click now viagra mexico technologies for economical fusion power. In a recent interview at the www.calamusdesign.it Clean Tech Investor Summit (which we're very sad we're not attending), van Lierop said that he expects large energy companies to start thinking about building fusion plants within the next five years.
As we've noted before here at EcoGeek, the best way to track down that technologies are going to (very shortly) change the world is to watch what the venture capitalists are doing. These are people who basically make ridiculous sums of cash by predicting the future...and investing in it. And since they've got so much riding on their bets, they like to do a lot of research.
Often this is research that people like me (because I don't have billions of dollars to invest) can't do. So I follow the VCs, and pay attention to what they're saying.
And what van Lierop is saying seems almost crazy, on the surface. But dig a little deeper, and things start looking exciting. Despite sounding like a comic book hero, General Fusion's technology is very realistic. In a world where we're all used to hearing that "Fusion power has been twenty years away for twenty years" hearing that it's five years away is pretty remarkable.
General Fusion hopes to create small fusion reactors that cost around $50 million a piece and generate roughly 100 megawatts allowing for roughly 4 cent / kwh electricity. That's about the we use it buy viagra on the internet same cost as coal.
The fusion system the use, called Magnetized Target Fusion which uses lithium as a fuel. The lithium is heated and mixed with intensely pressurized plasma. The lithium then breaks down into tritium (hydrogen with two neutrons), which is then mixed with deuterium (hydrogen with one extra neutron.) In the high energy environment, the tritium and the cialis shipped canada deuterium fuse to form helium, and create a whole lot of heat.
The heat captured is significantly greater than the energy used to run the device and the only byproduct is helium and other harmless gasses.

written by George Vaccaro, February 11, 2008
I'm pretty sure that the goal is to produce more energy than they consume, otherwise I'm pretty sure no one would invest in it.
If that assumption is correct, which it must be, they would presumably use some of the energy they produce for input.
They'd probably use energy off the grid to start the reactions etc., but again, what kind of power plant would it be if it consumed more than it produced?

The result is fusion heat. The heat is used to create steam and to feed back into the system.
The power generated costs about the same as Coal power. Just without all the pollution.

I am surprised to see that no one here has even mentioned Focus Fusion. In my opinion (and its only that) is that focus fusion offers the 50mg viagra retail price only real alternative that involves fusion. Focus fusion uses hydrogen and boron, two very abundant elements and online meds viagra combines to create helium. There are no extra electrons left over and thus no radiation. Only a small amount of x-rays are emitted and engineers of this project think that a type of solar panel can be used to encase the device and actually harness power from this as well.
The other advantage to focus fusion is the lack of a turbine. Instead of heating water to create energy, an electron beam is passed through coils which converts the energy directly into usable electricity. These devices are also significantly cheaper than 50million to build and can be housed in a building the size of a gas station. A runaway thermal event is also impossible, because if the reactor was breached the process would stop immediately.

The Bussard team is hoping to leapfrog tritium-deuterium and use boron for fusion... a process which has far less high energy neutron flux.

Our only two options for a "renewable" energy source at a large scale are Nuclear Fusion (Fission could work, but only for ~50 years, and it produces waste, which is safe, but undesirable) and BioFuels. A Hydrogen economy is only feasible as a fuel cell (read: Battery) to store the energy for use in vehicles and buy cialis on line backup generators. Hydrogen is not a viable energy SOURCE at a large scale-- you have to put energy into water to cause catharsis and produce hydrogen gas.
Nuclear Fusion allows us to harness mass-energy of matter. The science is there in principle, its only a matter of time until it is feasible in practice.
BioFuels are a great alternative. The CO2 emissions from fossil fuels right now are an issue because they come from plants and animals millions of years ago. If we were to move large scale to a BioFuel energy economy, the very plants that are needed to make BioFuel absorb CO2 from the atmosphere to grow. The level of emissions produced from these BioFuels is balanced by the level of absorption from the growing plants. In principle, this would leave our current level of CO2 where it stands today, and further steps to reduce atmospheric CO2 could be taken if necessary .

Controlled fusion typically fails because it is impossible to obtain the fuse the http://paradigms.com.do/best-price-viagra-online particles together (i.e obtain the necessary cross section) before they basically bounce away from each other ( decay due to turbulent effects ). Attempts have been made to over come this, by designing, for example, reactors in highly non-equilibrium configurations, but in every case so far, some kind of instability arises which causes everything to break down.
It is basically impossible to design a stable system because the thegracedarlinghotel.com.au underlying equations are so complex--may researchers try to rely upon some simplified macro-equations (i.e. Fokker-Planck ) which simply can not pick up instabilities that couple different time scales
Does this mean research should stop--certainly for large scale projects like ITER! There is no science here--the whole approach is to use a giant hammer to solve the problem.
Will anyone make progress--well, Steve Balmer thinks so, and has funded some work here.
Still, I would not put any tax money into these crooks.

Great discussion all around. I had the benefit of seeing both the CEO of General Fusion pitch his company to a room full of Pacific NorthWest VCs (in Vancouver at the Financing Forum in January) but I got to hear Wal van Lierop talk about his take on Clean Tech investments as well. Wal is a great guy and a good speaker and so is the CEO of General Fusion - Doug Richardson.
I didn't get any facetime with Wal but I had a good chat with Doug at the event. I think the cheap cialis biggest hurdle they face is the regulatory issues. Siting anything with "fusion" in the name is a big challenge. They want to try it out in an urban centre to start with and I'm not convinced that any amount of rational argument around the safety of this technology (which I believe, btw) will convince a fearful public.
The public will fear that this technology will have the potential to "melt down" in their backyard and will reject it outright. Remote communities might be willing to try it. The tar sands in Northern Alberta, for example.
I feel bad for Doug because I think he's really on to something with his platform technology and wow look it soft gel viagra with the right investments, it will be successful. I'm just not sure if the public is ready for it or not.
It sure as hell beats coal, nuclear or natural gas for electricity.
Good luck Doug and Wal.

Take a look up into the nightsky sometime, all those little bright dots are just little indicators that no fusion is not a scam. A scientific hoax for what benefit? Its not like anyone has a reason behind wasting billions of dollars on a fusion reactor that doesnt produce a higher energy ratio, just because scientists arent as smart as they think they are and they cant effectively do fusion doesn't mean it is a hoax, because that would mean they knew it wasnt going to work and made it not work on purpose. Any argument against fusion is retarded, it is the most natural and good choice cialis from canada proven source of energy out there and without it humans wouldn't be here. And to the person who said "how much does it cost to produce tritium and deuterium?" Well you dont have to worry, fresh water may run out but we are gonna have our oceans for a while, and those oceans contain a LOT of deuterium and tritium. The fusor will never produce any energy above the 1:1 energy ratio. My dad has been building wind turbines for most of his life so I should be biased towards wind, but to the person who said wind turbines everywhere could power everything once they were up and running and hydrogen would take care of energy storage. Well this is dead wrong wind energy will never be a real solution because of the cost of building a wind turbine. At least in solar you have the hope of it getting more efficient but wind turbines will always be a costly prodject, and theres no getting around that. People will argue fusion is expensive too but it produces way more than even the biggest of todays wind turbines. Oh and you act as if once the towers are up we can just leave them and that will be it for energy, but you dont know much about maintenance of wind turbines huh? That gets expensive and they typically need to be repaired before they even have produced enough energy to make up for the cost of construction. (which takes about 5 years now with good wind turbines) To the person who said "arent we about to face a shortage of helium too?" Fusion isnt like coal, the products of the reaction arent going to be in the gigantic quantities that coal and other plants release, it is going to be more like a tiny bit of helium released. And the person who was talking about the "issue" that never got explained, it is not as if terrorists could not get their hands on deuterium and tritium, it really wouldnt be that hard I am reading a book about a teenager here in america who obtained enough to get himself a lethal dose of radiation. (And he didn't have millions of dollars and a large sophisticated terrorist group) There really is no argument against fusion because as soon as power producing plants start getting built, (not gonna be for a while, this article about it being 5 years is totally wrong, but after ITER is done we prolly will start seeing it, unless ITER doesn't produce net power then scientists will have to say its 20 years away again) the whole world will shift to fusion and recommended site viagra usa slowly all those wind turbines and hydroelectic dams and stupid plants where they take mirrors and heat water (not efficient) will all just be abandoned. We will just have essentially free energy then and we will be able to power everything. There is no other way to produce the power humanity is going to need when we get to 10 billion in population size. Fission is the solution for now, fusion is the way of the future.
There will always be ways for humans to generate energy, we can convert waves (horribly inneficient) we could dig down to magma anything, the problem isnt finding a way to generate energy, but a way to generate it cost effectively, that is why ever eco energy thing coming out right now is stupid and the only answer to the human race is fusion. Everyone knows this, we just don't know when we will be able to do it, which is why instead of treating it like some fanciful scientific dream we should look at the fact that it is inevitable and we should start working as hard as we can on it.

is a great thing, existing Designs like ITER will most likely work, in the sense of making net energy, although as a model powerplant, it is like asking the Wright Borthers to make a commercial airliner...possible, but far from efficient or elegant. But the General Fusion thing is just a Joke,
the way you know for sure is not a single person at the company is any sort of expert on fusion plasma physics---a recipe for disaster given how difficult it

do not behave ideally due to turbulence, instability,

Down at atomic nucleus dimensions, the atoms are mostly empty space. Short of letting off a bomb, it is VERY VERY difficult to force nuclei together at a density where the probability of fusions happening in quantity becomes useful. Yet it is so very very worthwhile trying to contrive it because the payoff is so vast. It may be all we have to save the planet!
The whole business of burning fossil fuels is actually us trying to get at the Hydrogen, (unfortunately locked up with a load of Carbon), and expending it make water and CO2. With fusion power, if we must use portable fuels, we can drag it back by using the electricity to split the water. Meantime we should recognize that the evolved ideal solar collectors that directly take the CO2 from out of our polluted atmosphere, and locks the carbon up in a mass of wood and vegetable matter - are trees and grasses and other things with leaves and http://www.kachinwomen.com/cialis-without-prescriptions stalks!

Electrolysis is not that hard and can be easily done and there are very simple ways of "mass producing" hydrogen while releasing very little greenhouse gases and for a pretty cheap price (lower than $.o4 a kw)
Also Fusion power could easily replace all large energy sources but one big problem if we are successful, containment failure of fusion reactor, there goes the neighborhood.

Should ITER or another fusion approach that's aimed at making steam to drive expensive turbines ever reach energy breakeven, it's going to be despite all the energy it took to power up all of the electromagnets that attempt to control an unruly plasma.
Should they succeed, their steady-state confinement then poses the constant risk of containment breach, turning the hot plasma loose on the reactor walls.
Government fusion research has been a resounding success for decades now in terms of providing physicists with steady career paths.
Focus Fusion is an elegant approach to burning pB-11 (hydrogen-boron) using only the plasma's magnetic fields to guide the plasma through a series of instabilities. Nor is it steady-state, but very much like your car's sparkplugs, which authorize every new power cycle.
Just as elegant is Focus Fusion's power conversion system, which converts the resulting X-rays and and Helium-4 ions directly into electricity, entirely bypassing the the best choice mail order levitra bulky and expensive steam cycle.
Proof-of-concept experiments are scheduled for Labor Day, 2009, with energy breakeven (hopefully) in early 2010. Early model commercial units are expected to be around 6' x 6' x 9', complete, costing less than $500,000 FOB at the factory.

commented on Valve reveals linux-based SteamOS, but what is it?
My friend explains it. Basically it's a modified Linux Distro, that will be freely available for anyone to install onto whatever computer they want. The main modification is that it'll come with Steam auto-installed. The idea is that you build a Media PC that you hook up to your TV, that you then install SteamOS on, and it gives you Steam on your TV, which you can then play your games on.

Why do so many Americans deny climate change?
Are you puzzled by American attitudes on climate change? Within the international climate change community, U.S. policy has been met with a mix of hope and frustration. Following the release of the U.S. national assessment report on the heels of the IPCC fifth assessment, the characterization of climate change appears to be shifting in American public discourse. What was previously "a series of impacts that will only be felt in the distant future," is increasingly described as something that is already happening. Even politicians that in the past eagerly denied global warming, have begun to moderate their challenges of climate science, with some now avoiding comment altogether on grounds they are "not qualified to talk about it."

Wallie Smith can feel the pain. He goes to the hospital, remembers the doctors and the commotion, but when he wakes up it all seems like a dream. However, if that was a dream how do you explain waking up in another body and in another world? Little Wallie finds himself in the physique of a barbarian swordsman, accompanied by both an eccentric priest babbling about the Goddess and a voluptuous slave girl. Is this a rude awakening or a dream come true?
"An enjoyable listen"
The Goddess had rescued Wallie Smith from certain death, endowed him with a magnificent new body, and gifted him with the legendary Sapphire Sword of Chioxin. She asked only one service in return...So Wallie became the Goddess' champion -- and promptly found himself on the losing side in a battle against magics far beyond any the priests of the Goddess could hope to summon.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
Wallie Smith had been dying on another world when the Goddess transferred his mind to the body of the barbarian swordsman Shonsu. Then She gave him the great, magical Sapphire Sword of Chioxin and sent him on a mission. All he had to do was to lead the arrogant band of swordsmen to destroy the sorcerers and their Fire God. Now Wallie discovered that he'd already tried it - and been hopelessly defeated.
For 15 years the truce has held. Swordsmen of the Tryst of Casr have kept the peace and extended the rule of law over half the World, but now sorcerers have started killing swordsmen again, and swordsmen traitors are aiding them. Shonsu-who was Wallie Smith before he became a swordsman of the seventh rank and liege lord of the Tryst-must once more gird on the seventh sword of Chioxin, and this time he rides out to fight the war that he hoped would never come.

Scholomance is actually a school for necromancers, and I'm not 100% sure on this, but I think that necromancers should still be able to raise the dead even without the Lich King. I mean, Horde and Alliance Death Knights do it all the time, right? I would expect those crazy cult of the damned guys to keep doing their thing down there. They might even be driven to get a little more on the offensive to avenge their fallen leader, or something.

Lindsay Lohan: Jail and Bail
Monday, April 25th, 2011
Lindsay Lohan was sentenced to 120 days behind bars and 480 hours of community service for allegedly stealing a necklace. Her theft charge was downgraded from a felony to a misdemeanor. The misdemeanor charge still carries a possible one-year prison sentence.
Lindsay was booked at around 5:30 P.M., then out on $75,000 bail by 9:21 P.M. She'll be allowed to remain free while she appeals her jail time.
The community service is non-negotiable. Judge Sautner ordered Lindsay to do most of those hours at the Downtown Women's Center so she can, quote, "see how truly needy women have to live and that might change her."
Lindsay's theft trial is set to begin on June 3rd.

Target Math Facts Lite
Target Math facts app is made for kids under 10 years old. Practicing facts is very important for big number calculations. This app makes a child practice and remember all the necessary math facts in a fun way. With a theme of carnival games, kids never get bored while practicing their math facts.
Isn't remembering math facts FUN while playing shooting darts and balloons, tossing rings and throwing balls in a basketball hoop?
Test: In this mode 20 questions will be given. You answer them in the allowed time to pass the test. If you pass the test in very less time you get an achievement of excelling the test.
In this app, kids practice facts in 4 major mathematical operations like Additions, Subtractions, Multiplications and Divisions. In each section there are 10 levels with increasing difficulty. So in total there are 40 levels of math facts covered in this app.
Additions: Level 1 starts with simple one digit additions and as the levels progress kids practice various round number additions with 2 digit 3 digit and 4 digit numbers. For example in level 4 kids practice adding 2 digit round numbers and 2 digit numbers. 20 + 36 = ? In level 3 they practice algebraic additions based on fact family rules. 12 + ? = 18.
Subtractions: Just as in additions section level 1 in this section starts with single digit subtraction and as the levels progress kids practice various round number subtractions with 2 digit and 3 digit and 4 digit numbers. For example in level 4 kids practice subtracting round numbers from 2 digit numbers. 56 - 30 = ? In level 3 they practice algebraic subtractions based on fact family rules 16 - ? = 11 or ? - 7 = 5
Multiplication: In this section kids practice simple multiplication facts in the first 4 levels. In the advanced levels they practice how to multiply 1 digit numbers or round numbers by 2 digit 3 digit and 4 digit round numbers. For example in level 6 kids practice 2 digit round numbers by 1 digit numbers. 60 x 4 = ? In level 5 they learn how to find missing numbers in a multiplication sentence. 9 x ? = 54
Division: In this section kids practice simple division facts in the first few levels. Once they master basic division facts in the further levels they practice how to divide rounds number multiples by their 1 digit numbers.

Total Recall
I love this photo. Harold Ballard once said about Inge Hammarstrom "he could go into the corner with six eggs in his pocket and not break any of them." This photo brings Harold's words into view perfectly. Nilsson doesn't know where the puck is and doesn't care, he just needs to get out of the area immediately.
Row-bear has been re-called today, with JFJ going down to the farm.
If the Oilers could get them into a transporter and have their DNA mixed up like Tuvok and Neelix one of the guys who gets beamed up could play NHL hockey and the other could deliver drinks to customers.
Nilsson isn't a bad hockey player, but lordy he looks like a tweener (a guy who can't put up results despite looking like a player) and Jacques is a player who looks like a tweener whenever he plays for the Oilers.
If I was in Vegas and had $500 to put on one playing more career games than the other, I'd bet on the Quebec kid. However, it's a snail's race at this point.

Be it the Red Cross or American Cancer Society, sites asking for online donations are commonplace. Also common place are sites where the purpose is purely self-serving.
Social media expert Cristin Grogan likened it to online panhandling, where websites and elaborate sob stories have replaced the traditional street corner and a cup.
"And for really frivolous seeming things like paying off credit card debt and not for any medical expenses or anything like that but because they've over-spent or they've over-shopped," Grogan said.
Case in point: a same-sex couple in London engaged to be married and asking for money to help fly one groom's parents to their wedding from South Africa. Not so bad until you realize they are having not one but four wedding-related events across the globe with apparently no money left for parental airfare.
Helpmeleavemyhusband.com is exactly that: a woman looking for donations to pay for her divorce.
Helpoutbrian.com was started by Brian who racked up credit card and student loan debt that he wants the public to help pay off.
Grogan and other industry experts acknowledge that some of these sites claim to have more serious reasons for cyber begging, like alleged medical bills or mortgage help.
Just in case the online panhandler isn't skilled in setting up an online collection cup, there's even a site to help you do that as well.
"It's certainly taking advantage of people," Grogan said. "And I think it really affects the nature of the Internet and the seemingly good nature of the Internet and what it's supposed to serve."

Shining Through the Night: Bike Lights for any Rider
As the weather become nice across the country (or hot where we live) cyclist begin to come out of the woodwork. Part of cycling safely is ensuring that drivers can see you when the sun goes down. Below we have rounded up our favorite bike lights to keep you cycling safely.
Buying a good bike light seems like it is not such a difficult thing; buy a light, strap it on and go. Yet a bike light is an extremely important purchase if you ride at night. It is also a legal requirement in most jurisdictions. What headlight you buy largely depends upon your needs. A casual rider who just rides around town only needs a light that makes them visible. Hardcore commuters or those who ride dark trails will need very powerful models that can cast light far. You will notice we left off dynamo light and hubs. These were omitted due to the complexity of installing a dynamo light in addition we feel most cyclist would be better served by a simple detachable battery powered light. What ever you choose just make sure that you know the laws and safety guidelines for wherever you ride.
- Trek Ion 6: Having had the ION 6 as our main headlight, we can safely say it is one of the better values out there. It is bright enough for city and slow trail riding, and also has a great strobe feature (all of the lights do, the Trek's is just annoyingly attention grabbing). For its $35.00 price, a lot of piece of mind can be had in a rugged, simple little light.
- Planet Bike Beamer 1 & Blinky 3: The Planet Bike set is a basic light set that will equip you for night riding. Efficient LEDs will illumiate enough to keep you safe and hopefully let automobile drivers know you are out for a ride. We do not recommend these lights if you are riding in extremely dark areas as the throw of the headlight will not be sufficient enough if you travel more than 10 mph.
- Cateye Uno: The Cateye Uno is a solid, basic light that has more throw than the Planet Bike light. It is powered by a single 3 watt LED and normal alkaline batteries. If you ride darker streets, we would recommend it to help you navigate at higher speed.
- Cygolite Expilion 250: Cygolight is in our minds the gold standard of bicycle lights. Not only are their lower end lights brighter than our Surefire, their durability and rechargeable batteries make them a real winner for those who commute or ride extremely dark trails. While their prices are high, if you ride often in the dark, the price is worth it for their durability and reliability.
3 Comments
You can put a couple blinkies through the helmet vents on the back of your helmet to make yourself really visibile to drivers. This MK Lite puts the cygolite to shame for brightness for the same price.
Thanks Campbell for a bit of a look at what's out there. Ride On magazine just published results of a test of 50 bike lights available in Australia. It covers compact flashing lights, dynamo lights and high-powered units too. The article is under Lights test at www.rideonblog.com.au.
Planet bikes are bright (and they also make a super-bright version for paranoid night bikers) but they are not very durable. I have broken both the mounts and the mounting part on the main body in normal use. (IE, NOT during a collision.)
Since they get stolen frequently too you can acquire used mounts for cheap... but still, it's a lot to pay for some seriously flimsy plastic. My chinese knockoff rear light cost 1/10 the price and lasted longer than some of my Planet Bike lights have. (The knockoff light did finally come apart on the inside because it was, indeed, junk.)
Buyer beware.

There had been so much goodwill surrounding the Kings leading up to the NBA draft lottery Tuesday.
The fact the Kings were not the Seattle SuperSonics was testament to that.
But there wasn't enough good luck to cap the Kings' fairy tale with the best possible draft scenario. They ended up with the seventh pick, one spot below where they were slotted to select based on their record this past season.
The Kings had only a 6.3 percent chance of landing the first pick based on having the sixth-worst record. The worst-case scenario had them picking ninth.
The Cleveland Cavaliers won the first pick for the second time in three seasons. The Orlando Magic, which had the worst record, will pick second, and the Washington Wizards will select third for the second consecutive year.
With the Kings still in ownership transition, coach Keith Smart represented the team at the lottery. Basketball president Geoff Petrie watched the proceedings on television.
"I got to watch it in my living room," Petrie said. "History repeating itself in respects."
The Kings have been in the lottery the last seven years and never have moved into the top three picks.
"It is what it is," Petrie said. "What are you going to do? At least now you know where you are for sure and can move forward from there. So we'll see."
The signs that change is coming to the organization was evident at this year's lottery party at Buffalo Wild Wings in Natomas near Sleep Train Arena. No officials from the Kings' basketball operations attended.
There were cardboard cutouts of Tyreke Evans and DeMarcus Cousins and representatives selling season tickets, and the team's flagship radio station, KHTK (1140), broadcasted from the restaurant.
Petrie continues to plan as if he will make the decision on whom the Kings will choose on June 27 while waiting for new majority owner Vivek Ranadive to take control once the sale is finalized.
Petrie said the team is scheduling pre-draft workouts, but they likely would not happen until after next week's group pre-draft workout in Minnesota.
Last season, five of the top prospects refused to work out for the Kings. New ownership and stability might cause more players to be willing to embrace being a King.
Regardless of who the selection is or who makes the final decision, the new ownership group could overhaul the roster, coaching staff and front office.
The Kings also own the sixth pick in the second round, 36th overall.
Players who could be available at No. 7 include point guards Trey Burke and Michael Carter-Williams and small forward Shabazz Muhammad.
After projected top pick Nerlens Noel, Alex Len is viewed as the second-best center.
Petrie noted that the draft has its limitations.
"The idea that except in certain cases that the draft is the stairway to success except when you get that exceptional guy, (the draft) isn't necessarily the most important thing," he said. "You can get good players, but the really special ones, they don't come around very often."
The Bee's Jason Jones forecasts the first 14 picks in the June 27 NBA draft:
No. Team, Pick, position, school _Comment
1. Cavaliers, Nerlens Noel, C, Kentucky Plenty of bigs mean no need to rush back from knee injury.
2. Magic, Ben McLemore, G, Kansas Orlando needs a lot of help and could use the scoring immediately.
3. Wizards, Otto Porter, F, Georgetown Local college star is do-it-all small forward to go with young nucleus.
4. Bobcats, Victor Oladipo, G, Indiana Has the makings of an elite defender and is still improving on offense.
5. Suns, Anthony Bennett, F, UNLV Not as tall as an ideal power forward but would fill a need.
6. Pelicans, Alex Len, C, Maryland New Orleans fortifies its frontcourt with skilled big man who can score.
7. Kings , Michael Carter-Williams, G, Syracuse Big point guard (6-6) with savvy that would complement current roster.
8. Pistons, Shabazz Muhammad, F, UCLA Not everyone likes his game, but Detroit needs help at small forward.
9. T-wolves, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, G, Georgia It's time to address the hole at shooting guard.
10. Blazers, Cody Zeller, C, Indiana Was projected higher to start the season; still a big talent.
11. 76ers, Mason Plumlee, C, Duke Won't make fans forget failed Andrew Bynum trade, but he is a center.
12. Thunder, Steven Adams, C, Pittsburgh No help immediately, but OKC will need scoring from big in the future.
13. Mavericks, Trey Burke, G, Michigan Search for long-term answer at point guard ends if Burke slips this far.
14. Jazz C.J. McCollum, G, Lehigh Adds a backcourt scoring threat to go with young post players.

A Pharmaceutical Growth Story You Can't Afford To Miss
Jordo is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ: GILD) is the world's largest maker of HIV drugs, but has taken on a number of new initiatives to enter other areas of treatment. Gilead's stock rose almost 80% in 2012, the best increase in 17 years, primarily on the prospects of its experimental hepatitis C drug, acquired in its $10.8 billion acquisition of Pharmasset. Gilead's string of deals clearly indicates that the company's strategy includes blood cancer treatments in addition to hepatitis C. The market for treatment of leukemia and other blood cancers is one of the fastest growing markets in the cancer space. In this article, I will examine Gilead's fourth quarter financials, which have just been announced, and look at the market growth prospects for hepatitis C and blood cancer treatments.
Fourth Quarter Highlights
Gilead recently announced results for the fourth quarter and full year 2012. Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2012 grew by 18% to $2.59 billion, from $2.20 billion for the same quarter of the previous year. Net income for the quarter was $762.5 million, or an EPS of $0.47 per diluted share compared to $665.1 million, or an EPS of $0.43 per diluted share year on year.
Non-GAAP net income for the quarter, excluding acquisition-related, restructuring, and stock-based compensation expenses, was $823.4 million, or an EPS of $0.50 per diluted share compared to $743.1 million, or an EPS of $0.49 per diluted share, in the same quarter of the previous year. All these numbers have been adjusted to reflect the two-for-one stock split that became effective on Jan. 25, 2013.
For the full year 2012, total revenue was $9.70 billion, up 16% compared to $8.39 billion for the full year 2011. Net income was $2.59 billion, or an EPS of $1.64 per diluted share, compared to $2.80 billion, or an EPS of $1.77 per diluted share for the previous year. Non-GAAP net income for 2012, which does not include acquisition-related, restructuring and stock-based compensation expenses, was $3.08 billion, or $1.95 per diluted share, compared to $3.04 billion, or $1.93 per diluted share for the previous year.
As of Dec. 31, 2012, Gilead had $2.58 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities against $9.96 billion as of Dec. 31, 2011. The decrease was caused by the acquisition of Pharmasset in the first quarter of 2012. The company generated $3.19 billion in cash flow from operations in the full year 2012 and $705.7 million in the fourth quarter.
Phase 3 Studies - Sofosbuvir
Gilead reported that two phase 3 studies evaluating its hepatitis C therapy sofosbuvir had both met their primary endpoints and the data from the trials would support its regulatory filing for sofosbuvir. The company hopes to file for sofosbuvir's approval with the FDA later this year. If it is approved, the drug, which Gilead acquired as part of its acquisition of Pharmasset, would be the first purely oral treatment for hepatitis C.
Analysts have estimated that the market for the disease could grow substantially in coming years, with a potential of $20 billion in revenue. Dr. Norbert Bischofberger, Gilead's chief science officer and executive vice president of research and development, commented "These data support the favorable clinical profile of sofosbuvir as the backbone of a potent, safe, and well-tolerated treatment regimen that is effective across a broad range of HCV patient genotypes. The sofosbuvir regimens in these trials allowed us to shorten the duration of effective hepatitis C therapy to just 12 weeks for treatment-naive patients with genotypes 1 through 6." The hepatitis C treatment may generate as much as $3.8 billion in sales by 2020, according to Credit Suisse Group which would make it one of the company's biggest products
The Moves Into Blood Cancer Treatment
In the last year, four drugs have been approved in the United States to treat various forms of blood cancer. Gilead's most-advanced experimental blood-cancer product is aimed at chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or CLL, a disease that progresses slowly and can require prolonged treatment that can require treatment over years, opening up multibillion dollar revenue opportunities.
CLL is one of the four main categories of blood cancer, along with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia and chronic myeloid leukemia The drug, called idelalisib, was acquired in its February 2011 purchase of Calistoga Pharmaceuticals. Gilead has the credentials to succeed in this endeavor, which could produce another substantial revenue stream in addition to HIV and hepatitis C. Other blood cancers being pursued by Gilead include indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and myelofibrosis, a bone marrow disorder.
The Competition
Gilead's main competitor in the CLL market could well turn out to be Pharmacyclics (NASDAQ: PCYC), which also has an experimental therapy in the final stage of trials needed for FDA approval. Gilead's drug is being tested in combination with other medicines, while the Pharmacyclics' treatment stands alone. Pharmacyclics has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to buy, and no significant weaknesses can be seen that are likely to mar the company's positive outlook. Against the current price of around $70, Wedbush Securities has a price target of $110.
In the area of hepatitis C, Microbiotix, a privately-held clinical stage biopharmaceutical company, has recently licensed Merck (NYSE: MRK) for worldwide rights for the development and manufacture of MBX-700 and MBX -701 (formerly SCH 900942 and SCH 900188), two non-nucleoside inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus NS5B polymerase. Merck is continuing to struggle right now, as it has been affected by weak earnings as well as a failed heart drug, Tredaptive, in December 2012. This combination means that an investment is not recommended at the present time.
U.S. health regulators recently approved GlaxoSmithKline's (NYSE: GSK) drug Promacta to additionally treat low platelet count in hepatitis C patients, which should let hepatitis C patients use a standard therapy to fight the disease. Although revenue is likely to be under pressure and an aggressive cost-cutting program will not help in the short term, Glaxo shows investment potential. It should have multiple promising product launches this year as well as the results from several clinical trials.
AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV), the new pharmaceutical division of Abbott Laboratories, is developing its own experimental hepatitis C drug that is reported to have performed well in trials, but is unlikely to be available on the market soon. This new company has people watching a drug named Humira. This one drug accounted for more than half of AbbVie's 2012 revenues, which should exceed $10 billion in revenue in 2013. This blockbuster alone is a good reason to buy the stock.
Gilead is an extremely impressive company with strong results from its existing approved drugs, particularly in the HIV space. The company is showing a lot of growth potential in both the hepatitis C and blood cancer treatment businesses. I believe there is plenty of upside potential at current price levels, and I have no hesitation in recommending this stock to investors.

Governor Robert Bentley announced on Tuesday more than $30 million in grants will be awarded to 16 Alabama counties and municipalities devastated by the April 27, 2011 tornadoes.
"Alabamians have worked hard to recover from the impact of the April 2011 tornadoes," Governor Robert Bentley said. "We have seen a remarkable spirit of recovery in every area, but there are still effects from the tornadoes that communities need help to address. These grants will help Alabama communities continue the recovery process and become better places to live, work and raise a family. I appreciate Alabama's Congressional delegation for helping to secure funding for the recovery process."
The announcement is apart of a $49.1 million Community Development Block grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to aid disaster recovery.
This funding with help with infrastructure and flood management improvements designed to minimize potential damage from future storms.
Alabama began seeking funding after initial HUD funding was announced to meet the needed cost of cleanup and recovery. Governor Bentley went to Washington back in September to request for the additional funding.
The seven counties and nine municipalities receiving grants are:
Officials say 316 people were killed that day as a record 208 tornadoes touched down across the South. In Alabama and Mississippi, there were more than 15 twisters of EF-4 or EF-5 strength. In total, there was an estimated $11 billion in damage.
