January 17, 2013, 3:30 PM — Cost-savings, greater reliability, built-in disaster recovery and the simplicity of the cloud were all factors that sold Kaplan CIO Edward Hanapole on migrating the education products and services company from Microsoft Exchange to Google Apps. But there was another equally important reason: Staying ahead of the consumerization of IT curve.
"It's important for CIOs to stay current with trends: You don't want your employees to have better devices at home than at work," Hanapole says. "I want employees to be obsessed with tech and continue to be excited by the tools they get to work with."
After successfully migrating Kaplans 25,000 employees to Google Apps in late 2011, Hanapole embarked on a 500-employee pilot of Google+, Google's social network. This platform, he says, has been instrumental in bridging that gap between the tech employees use at home and at work.
"Part of what I've been trying to do is start embracing what our employees want from a core communications point of view," he says. "You need to acknowledge that your employees are increasingly digital natives and you need to stay current by living in the world they're living in. That's what makes you a better leader."
Kaplan's Google+ pilot wrapped up in December, and the service is now deployed to almost all employees. Here are four steps you can take to embrace consumerization of IT based on lessons Hanapole and his team learned from integrating Google+ in the enterprise.
[ How to Use Social Media to Create Business Value]
1. Makeover Your Mindset
Hanapole acknowledges that not everyone is "as obsessed" with technology as he is, and that not everyone is a digital native. But that's changing, he says, and he wants to stay ahead of that curve. That means moving toward social networks and collaborative streams.
"It's important to provide modern communications in the enterprise to encourage the same kind of communications and collaboration between our employees, partners and students," Hanapole says. "As CIOs, we need to advance along with what our clients expect from technology, and ensure that we're taking appropriate measures to keep the enterprise safe."
Keeping the enterprise safe is key: Hanapole says Kaplan isn't blind to the fact that employees access and use social networks regularly, which puts the company at risk. But, he says, you can either try to neutralize this risk by giving employees the tools they want inside the enterprise, or work tirelessly to block workarounds that employees find.

Martin Professional has released application software Version 2.0 for both the Maxxyz and Maxxyz PC controllers. Martin has also released Maxxyz OS (Operating System) 2.0. Version 2.0 software adds a host of useful features and feature updates to the Maxxyz controller range and is available for download at www.maxxyz.com/support .
Key features of Maxxyz Version 2.0 include:New Graphical User Interface
A complete redesign of the Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides more flexible control including saveable GUI configurations, new window docking and 16 views per touchscreen. Martin's Maxxyz and Maxedia Media Composer now share the same User Interface, making programming and operation easy and logical between different Martin Professional controller products. Further integration of Martin controller products is already in progress.
Fixture Cloning
Clones show content like cues, presets, and cue lists to alternative or additional lighting fixtures. Cloning allows users to copy fixtures for expanded lighting systems or to replace fixtures within the showfile between different types.
Auto Update Feature
Saves selected parameters and timings automatically for all programmed presets, cues and cue lists if and when required. Auto Update also allows users to adjust cues backwards inside the cuelist making it a very powerful tool for structured TV and theatre shows.
Online Help Support
Get questions answered quickly using the Online Help functionality. A fully updated user manual serves as a reference for version 2.0 and is now part of the software package.
New Menu System
Load and save show files on the fly from USB and CD. The Menu includes a new automated backup system that saves the showfile at specified intervals without interrupting the operation of the console. A console statistics window shows the amount of channels used, groups and cues written, etc. All console settings are now centrally located in an easy to browse interface and are logically grouped.
Hot Keys
Hot Key keyboard shortcuts have been added which are particularly useful for Maxxyz PC users.
Global Desk Timings
Allows for a fast override of programmed chase speeds and effect speeds, and adds speed to values in the Programmer, giving direct manual playback; also great for a quick and direct change of preset timings.
Improved Fixture Patch
The Patch can now be exported into .xml format, allowing for easy printing and distribution. The Patch window can now display each Universe graphically to quickly identify available addresses. Fixtures can be reassigned to various Universes by simply touching a cell.
Channel Expansion
In addition to the Ether2DMX, Maxxyz also supports the use of the Universal USB DMX box. Each device adds two Universes via the USB port.
Preset Export
The use of presets in cues can be exported into an .xml file which can be opened in Internet Explorer or Excel. This allows for easy documentation of the show and provides information to optimize the showfile and reduces focus times for shows.
As part of a complete networking package of Martin control products, the Maxxyz and Maxedia synchronize thumbnails for fast access to programmed cues on the Maxedia Media Composers.
Playback Options and MIDI Show Control
Users can now fine tune the desired behavior of the Maxxyz playbacks including fader levels, automated release on advancing through the various fader banks and adjustment of global release times.
In addition to the new functionality, the Maxxyz development team has improved the overall operation of the console for accurate playback and fast programming. During the development process, stability and reliability remained the most important focus.

Recognizing Domestic Abuse
Do you know what domestic abuse is? Many victims of domestic abuse deny that they have experienced abuse because they have never been hospitalized for injuries or filed a police report against their abuser. Domestic abuse is a system of behaviors that cause injury, guilt, shame and emotional pain. Each behavior depends upon and reinforces other behaviors. If you are experiencing any of these incidents, speak with someone. You can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline 24 hours a day, 7 Days a week at 1-800-799-7233.
Breakthrough Parenting® Classes
Unfortunately, children don't come with a book of instructions for parents that teach them how to navigate the challenges of guiding children through childhood and into adulthood. When parenting becomes a struggle between the parent and the child, it can feel more like a job than a joy! The Breakthrough Parenting® course offers a proven method for raising cooperative, happy and self-confident children.

During harvest, we're more aware that we live in a wine culture where grapes are groomed and prepped for the pick.
We're keyed up by the suspense of it — the pick — and we continue to root for the sleep-deprived winemakers all harvest long as they attempt to dance with, and maybe outsmart, Mother Nature yet again.
Getting close to the action has become sport, and thanks to Bob Fraser of Santa Rosa Junior College, there's a way in. Fraser, who teaches a class on Sonoma County appellations (AVAs), is privy to places that reveal harvest with the most authenticity. Here are some of his suggestions:
Stryker Sonoma Winery: This is a favorite choice for a harvest visit in Alexander Valley because winemaker Tim Hardin allows guests to "punch down" grapes during fermentation. There's also plenty of room to roam and ample vineyards, including an "old-vine" zinfandel block. Finally, there's a nice grassy area with picnic tables to have lunch or snacks. 5110 Highway 128, Geyserville, 433-1944, strykersonoma.com.
Forchini Winery: This family-owned winery specializes in zinfandel and pinot noir, and what makes it a standout is the scope of the harvest tour they offer. Owners Jim and Anita Forchini and vineyard manager Andrew Forchini lead guests on a journey from harvest to bottle. "Jim has some unique, gravity-fed winemaking processes that are totally mind-boggling," Fraser said. 5141 Dry Creek Road, Healdsburg, 431-8886, forchini.com.
Graton Ridge Cellars: This winery has a picnic area with a bocce court, and it's a great spot from which to watch harvest doings. Of course, for those who want a more hands-on adventure, owners Art and Barbara Paul will lead guests to a pinot noir vineyard and demonstrate viticulture practices, finishing up the tour at the winery. As for another perk, Fraser said the winery has a great picnic area. 3561 Gravenstein Highway N., Sebastopol, 823-3040, gratonridge.com.

Several firefighters from the Charlotte have returned from hurricane-ravaged areas of New York . They volunteered with the Firefighter Steven Coakley Foundation, which arranged the trip.
WBTV talked to one of the volunteering firefighters about the trip to New York. "It gives me goose bumps to talk about it," said Chris McCord. "They still need a lot of help."
McCord works for the Charlotte Fire Department at Station 8. When he learned of the trip to New York to help people hurricane victims rebuild, his fire station allowed him to take time off. He traveled to New York last Thursday, along with an 18-wheeler full of supplies. They purchased items such as tools, buckets, and toilet paper to help victims and aid in the rebuilding process.
"We were in there, basically doing salvage and overhaul," said McCord. "Tearing out walls, tearing out insulation, ripping up floors."
The volunteers worked in areas of Long Island the Rockaway Peninsula, which were damaged by floods from Hurricane Sandy as well as a fire.
"In Breezy Point, there was a location that looked like a bomb had been dropped in the middle of all these homes and it burnt like a 100 homes," he said. "Being in the fire service, we see a lot of stuff as you can imagine. I wasn't prepared for this."
McCord and his team were in New York just over two days, barely enough time to make a dent in the cleanup that needs to be done in the area. Still, the recipients of their hard work were incredibly grateful.
"Tears, crying, sobbing," said McCord as he described their reaction. "Just to have someone come from afar to help them."
Tom Stanton, a volunteer firefighter with the Long Creek Fire Department, said the trip has given him a new perspective.
"It restores your faith in humanity, it really does," he said. "If there was ever an issue that right there is a perfect example of neighbor helping neighbor brother helping brother."
Matt Greco, another volunteer firefighter with Long Creek, also said it was amazing to see people stay positive in the face of such devastation.
"The positive outlook on something that is completely life changing makes you really realize, I don't have it that bad," he said.
The Firefighter Steven Coakley Foundation, based in Charlotte, is planning another trip with volunteers to help out more in the next couple weeks.

This thrilling sequel to the much-talked-about Nightshade begins just where it ended-Calla Tor wakes up in the lair of the Searchers, her sworn enemy, and she's certain her days are numbered. But then the Searchers make her an offer-one that gives her the chance to destroy her former masters and save the pack-and the man-she left behind. Is Ren worth the price of her freedom? And will Shay stand by her side no matter what? Now in control of her own destiny, Calla must decide which battles are worth fighting and how many trials true love can endure and still survive.
About the Author
Andrea Cremer spent her childhood daydreaming while roaming the forests and lakeshores of Northern Wisconsin. She now lives in Minnesota, but she thinks of her homeland as the "Canadian Shield" rather than the Midwest.
Andrea has always loved writing and has never stopped writing, but she only recently plunged into the deep end of the pool that is professional writing. When she's not writing, Andrea teaches history at a very nice liberal arts college in St. Paul.
In the little spare time she can find, Andrea stares up at trees, rescues infant rabbits from predatory cats, and invents names for pug puppies. She has an unfortunate tendency to spill thingswhite carpets beware!

Low Humidity = Cool Mornings: Friday turned out very nice with sunshine and somewhat low humidity and Saturday will shape up similarly. Expect a cool stat to the day with low in the 60s for the Upstate and even 50s in Western NC.
Dry air heats up just as efficiently as it cools down though, so we'll still feel temperatures in the middle-upper 80s tomorrow in Upstate towns.
Tropics a Snooze-Fest: It's great news that the tropical Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico remain fairly quiet and have been quiet all summer. If there was one summer when heavy rain from a tropical system WAS NOT needed or couldn't be handled... it would be this one!
Tropical Depression either is not expected to have any impact on the US as it moves inland over Mexico.

NBC has learned its lesson. Last season, after a strong fall powered by The Voice and Revolution, NBC not only kept the shows off the air until March 2013, but chose not to launch any midseason series in January, cuing up a huge collapse."Essentially the momentum from last fall fell away. This year things are different," NBC Entertainment Chairman Robert Greenblatt said Sunday at the network's Television Critics Association winter previews. "Of course, we've got the Olympics for 18 nights, but I also think we've also gotten smarter about how we've scheduled January and February. We didn't take The Blacklist off the air in January. ...

After September 11, 2001, when terrorist attacks leveled New York City's World Trade Center towers, mayor Rudolph Giuliani's public bravery and pluck in the midst of his city's greatest crisis made him a hero across the country and around the world.
First, he was bugged by the almighty burger, now Morgan Spurlock (Super Size Me) is biting the hand that feeds him by exposing Hollywood's dirtiest little secret: the games they play to get advertisers products strategically placed in movies and on television. Spurlock uses his irreverent comedic style to infiltrate corporate boardrooms and ad agency pitch meetings to show how far they will go without our even knowing it!
After September 11, 2001, when terrorist attacks leveled New York City's World Trade Center towers, mayor Rudolph Giuliani's public bravery and pluck in the midst of his city's greatest crisis made him a hero across the country and around the world. However, while Giuliani's actions after 9/11 made him seem like a champion, there has been significantly less attention paid to his record before the attacks. Documentary filmmaker Kevin Keating focuses on Giuliani's early years in politics, his often controversial and uncharitable stands on civil rights, social services, education, and law enforcement, and his political ambitions after leaving the mayor's office in Giuliani Time. Featuring newsreel footage and extensive interviews with political analysts and people who worked with Giuliani, the film offers an overview of the totality of the former mayor's career than has been absent in most recent profiles of his life.

Initially, thermoelectric energy conversion, which means direct conversion of thermal into electric energy by means of a solid state effect, was developed as power supply of deep space missions. Their significance for wider application is growing for terrestrial utilization with respect to energy savings, reduction in CO2 and pollutants emission in economically and ecologically relevant dimensions.
Current developments focus on
In international cooperation (involving RU, CZ) prototypes of functionally graded converter modules for hot gas waste heat to be used in mobile thermoelectric auxiliary current sources are under development.
Extensive work is dedicated to iron disilicide as an inexpensive, technologically simple, long-term stable high-temperature material and qualified for the application from room temperature up to about 800 °C. Besides the opportunity to control temperature dependent sensor properties, this functional material paves the way to raise the output power and the efficiency of thermoelectric energy conversion by the principle of functionally grading, taking advantage of the control of microstructure by rapid solidification, thermal spraying, and additional thermal treatment. In extensive developments the influence of multiple doping and non-conductive additives is examined to maximise the material's thermoelectric quality such that a variation of material's properties (Seebeck coefficient, electrical and thermal conductivity) is achieved to adjust to a certain application situation.
To simulate functionally graded energy converters and to determine the optimal concentration function of the material along the thermoelectric element, a one-dimensional finite element algorithm was implemented (Galerkin method). Methods of analytic- numeric modelling are involved for the formulation of practically relevant analytical approximations as well as accurate calculations for the estimation of performance parameters of thermoelectric components (efficiency and the electric output power of thermogenerators, temperature differences and the cooling power of Peltier-modules). An exact one-dimensional continuous theoretical description of a homogeneous Peltier leg was developed under correct provision for real temperature dependence of thermoelectric properties. In the case of an inhomogeneous (segmented or continuously graded) pellet it is adjusted and was transferred to a similar treatment of thermogenerator elements.
Technologies for hot side contacting are being developed for thermoelectric generators based on iron disilicide, bismuth telluride, as well as cobaltate ceramics. Besides good mechanical stability, low electrical and thermal contact resistance, the contact at generator's hot side must be stable at operating temperatures and must not react neither to the silicide or oxide thermoelectric nor be oxidized/degraded by surrounding atmosphere. The characterisation of contacts includes yield mechanical strength, determination of contact resistance via travelling potential micro-probe and long-term studies for stability.

Backpacker Magazine – March 2012
Routefind across precipitous ridges to an ice-filled lake.
Beginning from the Drinnon Pass trailhead just south of Slocan City, climb two miles on a well-marked trail past spruce-ringed pocket lakes near timberline. Hit 6,739-foot Drinnon Pass, with views north to the rugged Devil Range. Leave the trail to traverse steeply southeast, climbing 800 vertical feet of talus to a saddle on the north shoulder of Drinnon Peak.
Drop north off the pass down gentler, grassier slopes, following a timbered ridgeline north-northeast to locate an obscure gully that descends diagonally back south, through thick brush and grass, to an unnamed yet obvious pond. From here, climb east through a half mile of boulders to Valhalla Lake. For more open and scenic lakeside camping, continue another .6 mile to a chain of ponds atop tundra shelves at the western foot of pyramid-shaped Asgard Peak.
Next morning, cross the northeast shoulder of Asgard via a half day of rugged boulder-hopping. Or go technical: Use ice axe, rope, and crampons to climb straight up a prominent 40-degree, snow-filled gully southwest of Asgard's 9,268-foot summit. Either route drops you east and south down steep meadows into Mulvey Basin, where ice-filled Mulvey Lake sits surrounded by the staggeringly steep granite spires of Mt. Dag, Wolf's Ears, and Gimli. Keep your eyes peeled for grizzlies and mountain goats.
Finish by climbing a rough mile over year-round snow, followed by a short, exposed rock ledge (rope recommended) to Gimli Col, a tiny rock saddle perched beneath thousand-foot granite walls. Close out with a 2.2-mile stroll down the Gimli Peak Trail. You'll need two cars for the 24-mile, dirt-road shuttle—it's too quiet to hitch.

Get There Start from Slocan City, on Highway 6 north of Castlegar in south-central B.C, about halfway between Vancouver and Calgary. Exit Slocan south on the graveled Little Slocan Valley Forestry Road, following signs for Valhalla Park and Gwillim Lakes, 27 miles to the Drinnon Pass trailhead.

I live almost in Castlegar, and have done this hike (Drinnon to Gwillim and back). I have to chuckle at your description of "just south of Slocan City" and some of the other references to distances. We measure distances here in hours, or kilometres. No mileage markers anywhere, and they would not make much sense anyway. Makes me wonder at some of the distances on some of the Utah, Arizona, and Montana and Washington hikes that I have not yet tried! Otherwise, thanks for telling the world about our very large piece of heaven.

Remember that if all the power plants and vehicles start changing to natural gas that is also going to raise the price it, and anything made of PVC in the US. PVC in the US is made from natural gas, not oil like many think.

Oil went from $17 a barrel in 1999 to $137 in July of 2008,, can anyone tell me who was the president during that time? Dah????
Posted by Jay Mcginnis at 9:37PM CDT 06/02/14
And $1.89 gas was Bush's fault, as stated by Obama when he was running the first time. Now who took it from $1.89 with $137 a barrel to $3.69 with $102 a barrel oil?
Posted by CRAIG MOORE at 9:11AM CDT 06/06/14
I guess Obama could bring gasoline back down to the price Bush had it when he left if he drove the economy into oblivion like Bush did with no regulation on the banks,,, yeah there is a plan, stock market went to 5000, $800 billion bailout to banks "too big to fail" ,, thats why gasoline went so low when Bush left office,,,, still can't see why you guys think thats a brag point? I am much happier now then I was then and do much better economically, especially the farm. Oh and stock market 15000.

Bumper Crop 2014 Crop Would Put ARC in Spotlight
Wed Jul 16, 2014 08:42 AM CDT
Gary Schnitkey at the University of Illinois wrote Tuesday at farmdocdaily that right now corn is looking at a 2014 market year average somewhere in the range of $3.65 to $4.35 a bushel. Under the new farm programs that will be rolled out later this fall, Schnitkey calculated that such price levels could mean ARC payments for Illinois farmers anywhere in the range of $77 per acre to $10 per acre at those price levels. A 200-bushel county average at $3.65 a bushel market-year average could still generate a $45 per acre payment.

We have twin daughters that will be 6. They picked this "theme' and of course wanted the shirts. Due to other reviews we were worried about the size. Our daugthers are avg height and on the slim to regular size. They typically wear a size 6 shirt/pants - but again - they are slimmer. If you have a "heavier" child bigger than a regluar 6 - it will probably be too small. It is just right on the twins - not much room to grow, but they fell in love after putting it on & they will probably wear it every week after their b-day, so we should get our money's worth :) Hope that helps anyone on the fence with the size 5/6, like we were (also knowing we had to buy two of them) - glad we got it!

Niese closes in on rotation spot
Manuel makes it clear that he needs Nieve in bullpen
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Last summer, before his leg betrayed him, Jon Niese provided his manager a glimpse of how good it all could be. Jerry Manuel has retained an image of a young left-handed starting pitcher finding and fighting his way through big league lineups. The Mets manager appreciated what he saw to such a degree that he wants to see more. So it is that Niese has all but secured the fifth position in the Mets' starting rotation.
Manuel indicated as much without saying the words Wednesday. Niese had pitched two scoreless innings in relief against the Astros in the Mets' 5-2 victory. And that cameo appearance, his body of work in 7 2/3 other innings, his large curveball -- pitching coach Dan Warthen says it's the best curve in camp -- and the club's need for Fernando Nieve in the bullpen left Manuel with no alternative. As a result, the rotation will be 60 percent left-handed, with Niese, Johan Santana and Oliver Perez -- not such a bad thing in the National League East -- and 80 percent unproven.
Niese had left the clubhouse Wednesday before Manuel provided a qualified declaration/lukewarm endorsement.
"I kind of see it might fit better for us, as we speak here today," Manuel said. "As I look at it today, I would say it's still open, but he would have somewhat of an inside track."
Those words were followed by an acknowledgment that the club needs Nieve to work in relief, possibly in the still-unassigned eighth-inning role.
Manuel was more direct in subsequent remarks, making a stronger case for Nieve in the bullpen, even though the club and scouts have wondered about Nieve's secondary pitches.

Spring Training Info
Niese, 23, has made five starts in the big leagues, three of them last summer before he ruptured the hamstring tendon in his right leg on Aug. 5. He produced a 1-1 record and 4.21 ERA in the five starts last year, after posting a 1-1 record and 7.07 ERA in two starts in 2008.
In four Grapefruit League appearances -- two in relief -- this spring, Niese has allowed 12 hits and four walks in 9 2/3 innings. He hadn't pitched in relief since 2005, his first season as a professional.
"He was pretty impressive when we called him up last year," Manuel said. "I haven't seen anything different from him [in exhibition competition]."
"I think his time has come," Warthen said last week, without reference to the rotation. "He's done his growing and his learning. Now it's time to do his pitching."

A fun, nostalgic and happy little ditty with the main melody played on the vibraphone. Backed up by the marimbaphone, 3 acoustic guitars, clarinet, flute, harmonium, Abbey Road drums from the 60's, bass guitar and tambourine. Great for those presentations, adverts, summer chilled commercials and more.

Back in early January, a regional bicycling publication BikePortland.org in Portland, Oregon covered the saga of a JetBlue customer who was charged $50 for checking his bike as baggage. The customer, and BikePortland.org, thought JetBlue's baggage policy regarding bikes was out of line. The unhappy JetBlue customer had worn himself out complaining via e-mail and phone and had been told this was policy and nothing could be done about it. But when BikePortland.org tweeted a link to its article on Twitter, Morgan Johnston, Manager of Corporate Communications for JetBlue Airways saw it.
"When I saw the link come up on Twitter, I followed the story first from their article and then to an article [by the JetBlue customer] at BTA4bikes ," says Johnston. "It was clear to me that the policy needed clarification. So, after a quick flurry of talks internally, we were able to clarify our policy, communicate that internally, and reach out through e-mail and Twitter to inform [BikePortland and the unhappy customer] that we had updated our policy." This all happened within 24 hours of the Tweet that got Johnston's attention.

Not every company has a team of people dedicated to staffing Twitter and other social media complaints the way Comcast, Mozy, and other companies I've spoken to for this series on social media do. For some companies, the effort is akin to keeping an ear to a listening post. In these cases, though, often the person -- or people -- tied to this listening post are in a more influential position than a customer service representative. In the case of JetBlue, the director of corporate communications was listening and was in a position to quickly clarify company policy when he saw a customer with a valid point. Because of the emerging nature of social media and how easy it is to simply tune in to the noise of the rabble, this might well be a common scenario in big companies.

The renewed Chris Paul rumors that sprouted the wheels of an M1 Abrams on Thursday and threaten to crush all of NBA free agency served as a reminder: NBA players largely do not share the same furry ideals of geographic loyalty that most of us fans do. Chris Paul is not a New Orleans guy -- he spent most of his life in North Carolina, and he had to move to Louisiana (and briefly Oklahoma) for his job. In the summers, he stays in N.C. New Orleans is just where he works.
CP3 also happens to be among the best in the world at his job, the top 0.5 percent of all professional basketball players in existence. Without question, he likes New Orleans just fine. He's done a lot of great charitable work there. But compare the working environments. The NBA owns the Hornets because the last owner was going broke. He has played with one true-blue All-Star in N.O. (David West) and another couple fringe cases (Peja Stojakovic, Tyson Chandler). His general managers, Jeff Bower and now Dell Demps, have tried to put a great supporting cast around him; the 2008 team was truly a contender. But George Shinn was never spendthrift enough to chase the Mark Cubans and Jerry Busses in the payroll wars, and it never added up on the court.
Now, in free agency, the Hornets are damned if they do and damned if they don't. Five players, including CP3, are under contract. (The others are Emeka Okafor, Trevor Ariza, Jarrett Jack and Quincy Pondexter.) None other than CP3 will bring much back in a trade; Okafor and Ariza are good players on painful contracts. If New Orleans brings back West, it's playing with fire: 31-year-olds coming off major knee surgery are usually a bad idea. Even if Demps did want to add a big name, he had less cap space than a few other teams (remember: empty roster spots have cap holds, too) and because of the market, he'll have to overpay to draw them in.
I'm sorry to say it, but when you put yourself in CP3's shoes, the future of the New Orleans Hornets basketball franchise looks pretty mediocre. Meanwhile, he's got two close friends sharing a basketball renaissance in another great city, but one whose franchise owner can afford nice things and whose team could become a legit title contender right away if Paul lands there. Put yourself in CP3's shoes, and of course New York is a better place to work than New Orleans right now and into the future.
No, no -- in the course of the lockout the NBA did not figure out how to strip young stars of free will. The reserve clause remains dead, much to the dismay of the most patriarchal fans. Paul is not threatening to do anything but that which is guaranteed to him as a right as set forth by the 35-year-old settlement of Oscar Robertson vs. the NBA. The agent for CP3, if the reports are accurate, told the Hornets that Paul would be exercising his right of free agency in 2012, and would prefer to be traded to the Knicks. There's no hold-out or retirement threat. If LeBron was killed for not giving Cleveland advance notice that he was fleeing, how can CP3 draw heat for giving too much advance notice?
Whatever the case, after LeBron, Bosh, Melo, Dwight Howard and now Paul, this has clearly become an issue for small-market teams. (Toronto isn't a true small market, but in NBA terms it sure comes off that way.) The NBA's attempts to incent players to stay with the team that drafts them have come up empty. Why would the NBA and its owners think that providing any extra year as a hometown bonus will help keep this level of stars? Have they not been paying attention? Most of these stars sign shorter deals to preserve their own ability to keep pressure on their GM to build a winner. The mini-max has been around since 2007. LeBron, Bosh, Dwyane Wade, Paul and Deron Williams have all signed them, allowing them to opt out after seven total years in the league and reach unrestricted free agency. They don't want your extra year. They want the ability to choose. Yet that's really the only mechanism that the NBA has heretofore invented in the quest to block future LeBrons.
(Who's going to be the first player to decline a designated player contract? Remember, under the DP rule teams can offer a longer first extension. That doesn't mean star players are going to take it. Consider Kevin Love a decent test case, should the Wolves offer it. Derrick Rose would probably take it, because he is where he wants to be.)
The only salve that currently exists for teams facing Chris Paul situations is to get out ahead. You know you'll have star player for the first seven years of his career, possibly eight (as in the Melo and Dwight cases; both took full five-year extensions for the second contracts with the standard player options on the final season). Try your absolute damnedest to win early -- not games, a championship. There's no time to build slowly. The Thunder managed to go from 23 wins in Kevin Durant's second season to 50 in his third. That's excessive, sure, but that's the idea. Go big. Let the young star taste success.
But if it isn't happening in Year 6, with potential free agency 18 months away? Do what Jazz GM Kevin O'Connor did: trade the star for an amazing package so that you don't have to later take a crummy package.
When it became clear that the Jazz's immediate championship aspirations were toast, O'Connor decided to trade Williams to the Nets for a pretty strong package: Derrick Favors, Devin Harris, the pick that became Enes Kanter and another future first. Harris will probably eventually be flipped for additional assets. Favors has the potential to be an elite defender, though the jury's out. Kanter may or may not have been the right pick at No. 3 in last June's draft, but Utah has pretty strong record with European players during O'Connor's tenure (Andrei Kirilenko, Mehmet Okur).
All in all, it's about 100 times better than anything the Knicks can offer the Hornets for CP3.
It remains to be seen if the Hornets will either be able to convince Paul to stay or take an extension somewhere else so that Demps can actually get a decent return. Or, New Orleans could roll the dice that the money giveaway in 2012 will be too much for CP3 to bear, and that he'll sign the five-year, $100 million contract only New Orleans will be able to offer. In the meantime, small-market teams with young stars need to be paying attention, and need to remain aware that the reserve clause is dead, free agency is just what it says on the box and that they could be next. You can be the Jazz, or you can be the Hornets. The choice seems obvious.

The freestyle was nice as you are not rushed to go to dinner whether you are hungry or not. We opted to have other guests sit at our table and met some interesting people.
I definitely liked the smaller ship over the mega ships. The staff seemed more attentive to the passengers. You have more interaction with the other passengers as you see them time and again.
The complimentary dining was a big disappointment. Service was poor to fair. Food was awful. I'm feeling this is ncl's way of pushing you to book the specialty restaurants.
The entertainment was average. The band in dazzles was excellent as well as, the band in the observation lounge. The band at the pool wasn't very good. Too much instrumental stuff without vocals. The hypnotist, the comedian were very good.
The ship itself is in need of repairs to it's flooring. Many times as your walking the floor is soft and you sink slightly. The aft stairway is the worst. Didn't wear heels when we went to dinner in the aft dining room.

The Neighborhood Defender Service of Harlem, (NDS) is known nationally and internationally for its innovative, community-based, holistic public defense practice. Our dedicated staff is committed to providing the highest quality legal representation to residents of upper Manhattan.
NDS opened its doors in 1990 to address some of the long-standing problems facing public defender providers.

NDS deploys all of these resources in the aggressive defense of its clients. Additionally, through our Pre-Arrest Services, NDS can begin representing a client before there has been any contact with law enforcement, allowing us to better protect our client's rights.
A core aspect of our holistic approach to public defense is a commitment to search for the underlying issues that bring our clients into contact with the criminal justice system, and providing comprehensive social service support to avoid or minimize future problems. Furthermore, when our clients face collateral consequences with their employment, schooling, or in family, housing, or immigration court, NDS strives to help our clients resolve those issues, either through direct representation or referrals to appropriate service providers.
NDS has also demonstrated a commitment to the community which it serves. Our offices are located not by the courthouse, but in central Harlem, allowing us to establish meaningful relationships with our clients and the members of their families who are also affected by their problems. NDS engages in Community Education activities to make sure community residents are aware of our services, and to help them better understand how the criminal justice system operates.
