4. Chief Technology Officer
The chief technology officer oversees the technical staff at an organization, but their role may vary from organization to organization, Wong said. Some are charged with software development activities, others work closely with the company's various partners on outsourcing, gathering data about new technologies or industry trends and oversee security assessments of products and services being considered by the company's various business units. The proper metrics include details on vendor assessments, the status of vulnerabilities and their remediation and the percentage of security vulnerabilities in software (if the discussion is about software security).
As solution providers position themselves for growth, the pressure is on vendors and distributors to meet their partners' needs. Here CRN presents the 2015 Channel Chiefs, our annual look at the executives responsible for running channels at today's IT vendors.

Doc not down on birthday boy Daniels
January, 7, 2012
Chris Forsberg | ESPNBoston.com
Brian Babineau/NBAE/GettyCeltics swingman Marquis Daniels.
After an improbable return to the NBA court this season following offseason spine surgery, Daniels has slipped into a recent funk, connecting on just 7 of 32 attempts (21.9 percent) over the last six games. In fact, he's missed his last eight shots, including all seven attempts against the Nets on Wednesday. Daniels played only eight minutes in Friday's loss to the Pacers, looking uncertain at times of his shot, and misfiring on the only attempt of the night.
For his part, Celtics coach Doc Rivers doesn't seem overly concerned at the moment, noting how the offseason surgery and lack of a preseason has worked against Daniels. And asked about his 0-for night against the Nets, Rivers cracked, "He blew five layups the other night, so we did a layup drill [Friday morning] just for him."
Turning more serious, Rivers added, "He'll be OK. He's playing hard and he's trying to do things the right way. When you miss as many games as he missed [last season after the freak spine injury in February] and you don't have the luxury of a preseason, it's hard."
Daniels' offensive woes are impossible to ignore. According to Synergy Sports data, he is averaging a mere 0.571 points per play (a possession ending in shot attempt, turnover, or generated free throws). That ranks in just the 4th percentile league wide (and Synergy grades him out as "poor" thus far). Daniels typically thrives as a cutter, but the majority of his shots right now are coming in spot-up situations (which might just be an indication of the second unit's lack of continuity overall). All that said, the Celtics don't necessarily need much from Daniels offensively. He simply needs to get back to 2010-11 caliber defense.
Last season, Daniels graded out as one of the league's best defenders during his shortened campaign. This season, he's been solid, allowing 0.825 points per play, but that lands him in the 53rd percentile and Synergy grades him as merely "good." Daniels is struggling a bit in defending 1-on-1 situations, but you expect that could improve as he gets more comfortable on the floor.
Even with Mickael Pietrus nearing his Boston debut, Daniels is a valuable asset to Boston for his ability to play three positions, including a shooting guard spot that no one has really grasped the reserve role of behind Ray Allen. When healthy and productive, Daniels remains an impact player for the Celtics.

An assessment of some of the global energy game-changers
Through a Glass Darkly
By Ian Walker, Executive Director of Windsor Energy Group
St Paul wrote about seeing the future through a glass darkly. That is particularly true of energy markets. You stand a better chance of making money by backing an outsider at a horse race than betting on global energy price trends. A lot of people have lost their shirts trying to predict energy futures so this article needs to be treated with caution. The energy market has proved massively unpredictable over several decades despite attempts by oil tycoons, such as Paul Getty, or energy producers, such as OPEC, to fix the market. So what is coming down the tracks that could make things different?

BMW Sports Cars Ratings
Getting firsthand information from an actual car owner is one sure way to get an idea of car performance once it leaves the lot. Autobytel features real consumer reviews that give the unbiased experience of a car.
2003 BMW Z4 - 2.5i (M5)
Pros: Handling
Cons: Power seats and roof not standard and expensive $2900
Advice: Try it you'll really be impressed
Handles real well, much improved from Z3 as far as power and trunk space. Thought Z4 much better ride than Honda S2000. While new styling has been criticized, I think the car looks great. -
2003 BMW Z4 - 3.0i (M6)
Pros: More powerful engine!
Cons: Styling of back.
Advice: Buy the first one available, if you liked the z3, consider yourself in love with the z4!
Perfect car, I'm trading my 2000 z3 2.3 for one of these. Makes z3s look, handle, and feel like a Pinto! -
2002 BMW M - Roadster
Pros: almost everything!!
Cons: driver's side floor mat tends to slide underneath pedals.
Advice: get one, buckle up........and hold on!!!
This car is a WILD ride!!! Had my son (24yrs old) in it a couple of weeks ago. We did some cruising and, later that day my mom asked him how he liked his father's new car? His reply was 'It rides like a formula car and he drives it like one too!!' With a 3.2L inline six powerplant which puts out 315HP..........this car is faaast!!! And with oversize antilock brakes, it stops fast too! So, seat belts are a necessity!

Mackay's first Asperger's workshop the key to change
To most people, Tia Euler seems like a normal seven-year-old girl; she's healthy, bright and loves horses.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
But a few years ago, Tia's mother Jody was struggling to understand why her daughter didn't want to be touched and why any change in her routine was like waging war.
The answer was simple: Tia has Asperger's Syndrome, but finding that out was the opposite of simple.
"There wasn't one particular moment, there were many, many leading up to it," says Mrs Euler.
"She was two-and-a-half at the time when her sister was born so that sort of disrupted her life and we had moved out of the home that she had known and started renovating it so there was so many changes to her life that disrupted the routine.
"It's quite challenging to pin point a child typically with Asperger's because they're quite advanced often in their development.
"Tia was speaking and articulating words above her years, dressing herself, so many skills that people would comment to us yet you give her the wrong colour plate at dinner time and it would result in a complete meltdown."
Mrs Euler had to travel to Brisbane for a diagnosis and workshops to help Tia because the resources just aren't available in Mackay.
"Tia and I last year actually flew every weekend for eight weeks on a Friday night to attend Saturday morning workshops in Brisbane.
"There just isn't that sort of assistance and intervention here so if you want to make a difference to your child's life they're the sorts of things we've had to do."
But not every family has the opportunity to seek help in the capital city, that's why Mrs Euler last year decided to ask one of the world's leading experts on Asperger's Syndrome, Dr Tony Attwood, to come to Mackay.
Mrs Euler says it's a first step in getting adequate resources to the region.
For those living with Asperger's Syndrome, there aren't a lot of available resources in regional Queensland.
Mrs Euler says while there has been great progress with Autism resources in recent years, there's still a long way to go.
"For Autism it is getting a lot better here in Mackay, it's really quite exciting some of the advances that we're seeing and Autism Queensland have been a big driving force behind that.
"They do have an early intervention clinic here now but that is limited to six small children that they work with on a weekly basis.
"When you're talking six small children and there are so many children here in need it's not a lot.
"When you're looking at Asperger's it's a whole separate set of challenges.
"These kids are really needing workshops on how to be a good friend, social skills, those sorts of things, and they just don't exist here in Mackay.
"It's frustrating because you can see what successes you have from going to those sorts of workshops and interventions so to be able to do it here on a regular basis would just be fabulous."
Raising awareness
Mrs Euler says she had no idea what Asperger's Syndrome was before Tia was diagnosed.
"I do remember getting the call saying it was the Mackay ASD clinic ringing and I asked, 'what is that?' and they said, 'Autism Spectrum Disorder'.
"I was mortified, thinking 'oh my gosh, you think my daughter's got Autism' and then the journey started for us."
Mrs Euler hopes that Dr Tony Attwood's Mackay workshop will raise awareness of Asperger's Syndrome as well as set a precedent for similar workshops in the future.
"I really would like to make this an annual event and perhaps grow it each year.
"I've also been speaking with a psychologist who actually works under Tony Attwood and she's very keen in coming to Mackay and doing some more frequent workshops, so I'm in negotiations with her at the moment about how we make that happen."
What is Asperger's Syndrome?
Asperger's Sydrome is on the Autism Spectrum.
Dr Tony Attwood says those on the Autism Spectrum look like any other kid but they don't understand social conventions.
He says a common misconception is that they're deliberately provocative or naughty.
"I describe them as French and Italian drivers," says Dr Attwood.
"Having been in Italy earlier this year I was amazed by how many red lights we went through, how people parked where they shouldn't park and they go too fast.
"And like we have traffic signals and traffic rules to prevent traffic accidents, we have social rules to prevent social accidents but these kids don't see the facial expressions that are like traffic lights.
"They don't tend to see the social signals but it's because they didn't see them and understand them not because they were deliberately trying to provoke you."
According to Dr Attwood's website, Children with Asperger's syndrome have the following characteristics:
- Delayed social maturity and social reasoning
- Difficulty making friends and often teased by other children
- Difficulty with the communication and control of emotions
- Unusual language abilities that include advanced vocabulary and syntax but delayed conversation skills, unusual prosody and a tendency to be pedantic
- A fascination with a topic that is unusual in intensity or focus
- An unusual profile of learning abilities
- A need for assistance with some self-help and organizational skills
- Clumsiness in terms of gait and coordination
- Sensitivity to specific sounds, aromas, textures or touch

Some Cordyceps species are able to affect the behavior of their insect host:
Cordyceps unilateralis causes ants to climb a plant and attach there before they die. This ensures the parasite's environment is of the optimal temperature and humidity, and maximal distribution of the spores from the fruiting body that sprouts out of the dead insect is achieved.

In the summer of 2006, the United States Soccer Federation invited 120 players to Middlesex School -- 20 miles outside of Boston -- to join a seven-day identification camp for the U.S. Under-14 Boys' National Team. The camp was run by Technical Director Manny Schellscheidt, a member of the National Soccer Hall of Fame who had coached the U.S. Men's National Team in 1975 and led the United States at the 1984 Olympics before beginning a 13-year tenure at the bottom rung of the U.S. youth national team ladder.
"I thought it was best to start with the little guys because it's definitely important that we get the first step right," Schellscheidt told USSoccer.com. "I felt that if we can get a good introduction at the bottom with the most talented kids that we could find in the country that would be a good thing."
Among those in attendance nearly a decade ago? Sporting Kansas City homegrown goalkeeper Jon Kempin -- making the trip from his hometown in Leawood, Kansas -- and at least three other future members of the U.S. Men's National Team: Will Packwood, Wil Trapp and DeAndre Yedlin.
Kempin, now 21, and Trapp are each currently in Carson, California with the full U.S. Men's National Team for the first time in their professional careers after steadily progressing through the ranks. In fact, Kempin has now joined eight different levels of U.S. Soccer's national team program (U14, U15, U17, U18, U20, U21, U23, USMNT) and has been named to a U.S. Soccer roster during nine of the past 10 years.
2015: USMNT (Training Camp in California, January)
2014: U21 (Training Camp in California, April)
2013: U20 (Training Camp in Mexico, January)
2012: N/A (sidelined due to fractured ankle)
2011: U23 (Training Camp in Germany, November); U18 (Northern Ireland Milk Cup, July); U18 (Lisbon International Tournament in Portugal, May); U18 (Training Camp in Oregon, April)
2010: U18 (Traditional Winter Tournament in Israel, December); U20 (Torneo de las Americas in Georgia, November); U18 (Training Camp in California, April)
2009: U18 (Training Camp in California, December); U18 (Training Camp in California, October); U17 (Residency in Florida, Spring)
2008: U17 (Residency in Florida, Fall); U17 (Training Camp in Florida, August); U15 (Training Camp in Missouri, June); U15 (Training Camp in California, February)
2007: U15 (Development Academy Nike Friendlies in Florida, December)
2006: U14 (Identification Camp in Massachusetts, July)
Unlike Kempin's first weeklong experience in 2006, the U.S. Men's National Team January Camp is a 28-day gauntlet highlighted by a pair of international friendlies on the horizon: away to Chile on Jan. 28 and home versus Panama on Feb. 8. Kempin is one of four goalkeepers on head coach Jurgen Klinsmann's roster and one of 12 Olympic-age players included with an eye toward qualifying for the 2016 Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro.
"I think it's going very smooth because the older guys help them to feel comfortable, to feel at ease and to enjoy it," said Klinsmann. 'I think this is a big plus for this team and has always been a big plus for the American team that they make it easy for new players to come in and feel welcome and to feel part of the group right after a couple of days. I think that's what happens now with these younger players. They feel accepted, they feel respected and they spend a lot of time together. Therefore, I think it's a nice thing to do with this January camp to help this younger group to grow into the next level."
Last week in Philadelphia, SI.com senior writer Grant Wahl sat down with Sporting KC Manager Peter Vermes to preview the 2015 season. Wahl and Vermes discussed the return of Roger Espinoza, losing Aurelien Collin and moving to the Western Conference. Sporting KC will kick off their preseason campaign Sunday with the first of two trips to Tucson, Arizona.
Sporting Kansas City midfielder Roger Espinoza traveled to Miami over the weekend to participate in the annual media / marketing tour for Major League Soccer. The World Cup veteran appeared on Univision's Republica Deportiva Sunday morning along with the LA Galaxy's Jaime Penedo and Seattle Sounders midfielder Marco Pappa. Espinoza also appeared on the Soccer Gods, alongside host Simon Carr.
Roger showed off his two-sport skills today on @Univision's @RepDeportiva. https://t.co/WvjHPKtZQk

Sporting Kansas City is in position to make a big splash at the 2015 MLS SuperDraft on Thursday. Manager Peter Vermes will have three first round draft picks—the 10th, 12th and 20th overall selections—to strengthen his roster ahead of the new season.
The MLS SuperDraft has been an invaluable squad-building tool for Vermes during his tenure as head coach. Matt Besler, Graham Zusi, Dom Dwyer, Roger Espinoza and Chance Myers all comprise the current core of a team that has won an MLS Cup, a U.S. Open Cup and two regular season conference titles over the last four years.
Vermes selected each of them in the MLS SuperDraft.
Could 2015 be the draft where Sporting KC strikes big again? With the 10th, 12th and 20th overall picks, the chance is certainly there. And a look at past MLS SuperDraft results indicate that impact players can come from just about anywhere in the first round.
Below is a successful crop of MLS players who were selected either 10th, 12th or 20th in the draft. As history shows, Sporting KC could be primed to make a valuable, long-term addition (or two) to its roster on Thursday.
Notable No. 10 picks in the MLS SuperDraft
- Kevin Alston (2009) – The defender has started 131 of his 138 MLS appearances for the New England Revolution (including postseason) over the last six seasons. His 2013 and 2014 campaigns were shortened by his battle with leukemia, but that didn't stop him from making four appearances in the 2014 postseason as the Revs advanced to MLS Cup.
- C.J. Sapong (2011) – Sapong took little time settling in at the professional level, earning 2011 MLS Rookie of the Year honors en route to becoming a fan favorite at Sporting Park. The forward scored 27 goals for the club in all competitions and appeared in all 11 of Sporting KC's playoff matches from 2011-2014.
- Ethan Finlay (2012) – The winger enjoyed a breakout season in 2014, leading Columbus Crew SC with 11 goals and seven assists and helping the club secure its first postseason berth since 2011.
Notable No. 12 picks in the MLS SuperDraft
- Wade Barrett (1998) – The 10-year MLS veteran defender won three MLS Cups with either San Jose (2001) or Houston (2006, 2007) and started 255 of his 262 MLS appearances (including postseason). Currently an assistant coach with the Dynamo, Barrett played three seasons in Denmark and Norway between 2002-2004.
- Jose Burciaga (2001) – After playing just seven MLS matches in his first three seasons at Kansas City, Burciaga flourished into a vital defensive cog. He helped the team reach the 2004 MLS Cup final and in 2006, recorded eight goals and eight assists en route to team MVP honors and an MLS Best XI selection. He finished his Kansas City career with 15 goals and 18 assists in 130 games across all competitions.
- Chris Wingert (2004) – An offseason acquisition for expansion team New York City FC, Wingert has played 292 league matches over 11 MLS seasons and helped Real Salt Lake quality for the playoffs every year from 2008-2014. He was a 2009 MLS Cup champion and a 2011 CONCACAF Champions League finalist.
Notable No. 20 pick in the MLS SuperDraft
- Baggio Husidic (2009) – The Bosnian midfielder spent three under-the-radar seasons with Chicago from 2009-2011 before moving to Swedish club Hammarby. He returned to MLS in 2014, enjoying a breakout season with MLS Cup champion LA Galaxy. He played in 38 of the club's 39 MLS matches, contributing five goals and four assists.
On Friday, Seth Sinovic was a guest on 610 Sports Radio during a segment of Fescoe in the Morning. Sporting Kansas City's 2014 Defender of the Year discussed a variety of topics -- anticipation for the preseason, the arrival of Roger Espinoza and Major League Soccer's collective bargaining agreement, to name a few. Alongside hosts Bob Fescoe and Josh Klingler, Sinovic also talked college basketball, the NFL Playoffs and prevailing over his teammates in fantasy football. Check out the podcast below for the full interview.
The best part of every draft season is the numerous mock drafts that float around the internet. This phenomenon isn't limited to soccer, by any means. When the NFL Draft rolls around in April, the Kansas City Chiefs will likely have been projected to take 20-25 different players according to draft "experts."
So with the 2015 MLS SuperDraft a week away, MLSsoccer.com rolled out their first Mock SuperDraft: Pre-Combine edition. The three experts doing the picking were MLS broadcaster Jonathan Yardley, MLSsoccer.com's Armchair Analyst Matt Doyle and MLSsoccer.com contributor and college soccer enthusiast Nate Sulat.
All three have studied the college game in 2014 and have a good grasp of the prospects in this draft class. All three will be watching the players throughout the MLS Combine and will be updating their predictions based on player performances.
So which three players will Sporting KC take next Thursday? Let's take a look:
Jonathan Yardley
10: Otis Earle (LB) - UC Riverside
12: Dan Metzger (M) - Maryland
20: James Rogers (M/F) - New Mexico
Matthew Doyle
10: Nick Besler (M) - Notre Dame
12: Otis Earle (LB) - UC Riverside
20: James Rogers (M/F) - New Mexico
Nate Sulat
10: Nick Besler (M) - Notre Dame
12: Otis Earle (LB) - UC Riverside
20: Miguel Aguilar (F) - San Francisco
After reviewing the mock drafts, it's apparent that Yardley, Doyle and Sulat feel that Sporting KC needs three things: a left back, speed and another Besler. Click here to read their rationale for each pick.
So there you have it. The first MLSsoccer.com Mock Draft is in the books. And if the experts are correct, Sporting KC could walk away with two players who have already signed MLS contracts. Guess we'll have to wait to see more.
What do you think SKC Nation? Do you like these projections? Is there a certain player/position you would like to see drafted? Let us know in the comments section below!
Attention Sporting KC fans with an appreciation for marine wildlife: Sporting Kansas City and SEA LIFE Aquarium have teamed up to create the ultimate Kansas City experience and overnight package.
To kick off the partnership, SEA LIFE named their new octopus Matt Besler after the Sporting KC captain on Monday. Bes (the Giant Pacific Octopus) impressed fans with his strength, though was deemed a ball hog by Bes (the World Cup veteran).
Sporting KC fans now have the opportunity to score some serious swag as part of an online auction with a package featuring eight items in honor of the newly-named eight-legged Besler:
- Two Sporting KC jerseys signed by Matt Besler
- Two Sporting KC soccer balls signed by Matt Besler
- Two Annual Passes to SEA LIFE Aquarium Kansas City
- One night stay at Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center with $30 food and beverage credit
- $50 Crown Center gift certificate
All funds raised will go towards SEA LIFE Trust, dedicated to the conservation of marine wildlife. Bid now! The auction closes at 5 p.m. CT on Sunday, January 11.
We are going to go out on a limb and say Sporting KC captain Matt Besler is the first professional athlete to be the namesake of an octopus. SEA LIFE Aquariam Kansas City recently named their octopus after the World Cup veteran and what better way to commemorate the occasion than with a meeting of the two Beslers?
Matt (the two-legged version) met Matt (the eight-legged version) at the Aquarium on Monday and all sorts of craziness ensued. Watch the TV clip below and click through the photo gallery for more details.

If you list the time of your party less than two hours, you will not be scheduled for a visit. Please make sure your party is up and running by the time you indicate the start of your party on your registration form.

What basketball sneakers should I get (Need Help Urgently)
Like (0)
I need basketball sneakers for the season and I can't decide on one. I play mostly point guard, and sometimes shooting guard.
The Kobe 5's are unbeleivable. They are extremely light and give amazing support.
Since Your PG You Need Shoes That Are Light...Im Also A PG And I Use The Shoes Dwight Howard Does And They Are AWESOME!!! I Completly Recommend Them!
DO NOT get shoes that are just popular and expensive. Shoes do NOT make you a better player. I would NOT pay more than $100 for a pair a shoes. You can find a good pair of quality shoes for between $80 to $100 if you pay more then you are getting ripped off. Then spend the other $10 on a set of orthotic inserts to extend the life of your inner shoe soles and make the shoe custom fit your special feet. Stick with the top name brands--black Nike is the main shoe I wear---Addidas is too stiff, Converse is too wide, Reebok tears up too easily.
Nike Hyperfuse are lightweight (12.5 ounces) and have good breathability. Nike hyperdunk 2010 are extremly light (11.5). Nike Zoom Soldier 3`s weigh about 14.5 but have really good stability. Adidas pro models are heavy too but have good cushioning. Also I would recommend insoles like the person above ^^^ said. It all depends on what you look for in a shoe. From the positions you play I would recommend a lighter shoe like the Nike hyperize, hyperdunk or hyperfuse.
i agree wit Morgan Raiders.i would say get da Nike Hyprdunks. but get da lowcut ones cause da high ones r lik 120$! u can get a pair of lowcuts online for lik 50$ here is da pair dat i hav. i kno u dont hav 2 tell me... THEY ARE SWEET!!!!
I recommend 2 different sneakers....
1.) Nike Hyperdunk 2010 - These shoes are newer and lighter than any high-top out there. Weighing only 11.5 ounces, they are a great choice for any point guard, shooting guard or small forward . With new flywire technology, many many different colors, and so many more features they are a great choice. (I am customizing them on NikeiD for AAU season)
2.) Nike Hyperfuse - I just bought these shoes, they are an excellent and comfortable pair. They are light supportive and super fly. Rajon Rondo wears them. Great choice.
"Good, better, best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better, and your better is best." ~Tim Duncan
* "Dare to be great." *
"Hard work, a positive attitude, confidence, and a smile are the keys to success."
Basketball is life....#14
old school jordans never go wrong
Do not get pro models. Those are not good basketball shoes. In the eighth grade they were my team shoes. By the middle of the season, most of my team was sliding around on the court because the sneakers had lost their grip. I recommend hyperfuses or hyperdunks or any other nike brand.
While I can't tell you which brand or type or size to wear, I can tell you that many different factors go into determining what's best for each individual player.
Your foot size (and width), your history of ankle injuries, the arch of your foot, the $$ in your wallet, and so much more.
I can also point you towards a potential resource: The American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine which, according to their website, "serves to advance the understanding, prevention and management of lower extremity sports and fitness injuries."
One of the resources they offer on their website is a listing of recommended shoes for different sports (including basketball). After examining different types of basketball shoes and grading them with a standardized assessment form, they offered their suggestions. But this only their suggestions.
Don't know how many of the good (foot) doctors actually played some ball in the shoes they evaluated, but it's a start.
Make sure that you check the size of both your feet, and try on multiple pairs of shoes to find the ones that feel comfortable while giving you enough support.
Also remember that, just like running shoes, you've got to change your basketball shoes when you outgrow and/or wear them out.

MercuryNews.com - January 06, 2009The rough magic of Romesco sauceAmy Scattergood Sometimes a sauce is more than, well, just a sauce.

Maritime Museum of San Diego is proud to host the 22th Annual Sea Chantey Fest featuring national, regional and local performers.
For centuries, sailors have honed their shipboard skills to the cadence of songs recounting the adventure, tragedy and romance of life at sea. These "sea chanteys" and the sailors life they describe, come to life aboard the Star of India. The Maritime Museum of San Diego, along with San Diego Folk Heritage, presents the 22nd Annual Sea Chantey Fest on Sunday, August 3, 2014. The music begins at 11:00 a.m. and ends at 4:45 p.m. with a group finale. Best of all, the whole event is included with Maritime Museum admission at no extra charge.
Visitors will enjoy sea chanteys and traditional folk music performed by popular local and national artists such as The Jackstraws, The Bilge Pump band, Gilman Carver and more. The Star of India sail crew will demonstrate various shipboard skills traditionally accompanied by sea chanteys and visitors will have a chance to join in and raise the sails of the historic ship.
