Managing Communications for the World of BYOD: Deploying the Right Technology for Today's Mobile World
Posted Date:
Today, everyone is a mobile employee. A fundamental shift from the traditional mobile workforce comprised of road warriors, executives and remote workers, this change to a mobile-centric business world is due in large part to the adoption of smart devices.
Frost & Sullivan research shows that a growing number of employees are using their personal mobile devices for business purposes, with or without approval or support by IT or management. This can be a boon to the organization, but it is also a risk; Frost & Sullivan recommends that companies leverage the BYOD trend by extending corporate communications to their employees' mobile devices.
In doing this, the goal is to be location-neutral and device-independent. Integrating smart devices into a business communications solution with one business identity gives end users the tools they need to conduct business efficiently from their own mobile device.

1977 BEST Sandwich, Eggplant Grinder
Natick Pizza Palace

Spyridon Ganas's breaded, cheesed, and fried eggplant topped with pepper and provolone and baked in a crisp sub roll is worth the trip. Eleven inches of vegetarian junk food for $1.50.

Until the end of the month, when it closes for the winter, Wallace's drive-in (right down the street from the Pizza Palace) scoops up gargantuan homemade ice cream cones. The toasted pecan fudge is especially good.

Hiking in Vysoke Tatry - Rysy
"Rysy" is very popular hill in High Tatras, which is quite overcrowded with tourists during the main season (from June to October) . But it is very nice trip, the top is 2500m high and there is also tourist chalet, which is highest-located in Slovakia. The trip lasts from 7 to 9 hours (4-5 hours up to 3-4 hours down) - it depends on your physical condition and also on weather conditions. The difficulty is moderate, but near the top is section (half an hour of walking) where is steeper terrain with chains.But if the weather is good, it´s no problem and you can enjoy this magic place :)
- Hiking and Walking
Cycling in Ticha Dolina - The Silent Valley
This cycling route is 11 km long and offers great views of the Tatras. The road, with asphalt surface and no other traffic except occasional vehicles of the TANAP (Tatransky Narodny Park) goes gently uphill. However, it is only on the way back that you really notice it. The ride downhill is easier of course, but the old asphalt can be a bit bumpy so take care.
Where to ride your bike in the High Tatras
Slovakia is a great country for cyclists: much less traffic than in the neighbouring Poland, good roads, but it is also quite hilly. You definitely need a mountain bike, especially if you want to explore more than just the main roads. You can't of course ride your bike in the High Tatras - that would be equivalent to suicide, but you can visit parts of the mountain valleys, like Javorova or Belovodska, but only as far as the signs let you. You will have to ride on gravel there. If you don't like that, use the main roads. The so-called Cesta Slobody, or the Road of Freedom, runs at the foot of the whole mountain range of the High Tatras, passing through Strbske Pleso, Stary Smokovec and Tatranska Lomnica. With little traffic, it is the dream of many cyclists, my husband included. If you want to get a beautiful view of the Tatras, like the one in the introduction, go a little way towards Poprad, not too far though if you don't want all sorts of industrial plants to obstruct the fantastic view, which is probably best just before sunset.

- National/State Park
- Cycling
Paragliding in the High Tatras
I have put this tip under extreme sports, though my husband says it's not as dangerous as it seems. Anyway, you'd better ask an experienced paraglider who knows the area well before embarking on paragliding in the High Tatras. It must be absolutely fascinating to soar over the Tatras with the fantastic panorama and in the brisk mountain air, but the very thought of the inevitable landing on the hard rocky surface would probably spoil the pleasure for me.
- National/State Park
- Adventure Travel
Vysoke Tatry is really nice place for hiking. Footpaths are very nice, not difficult at all. What I was missing here was climbing but like I said, these foothpats are suitable for everyone. For some more difficult ways you have to be guided by a local guide.

News Release
AUSTIN, Texas -- Even as much of the state remains in drought conditions, Texans should still consider purchasing flood insurance now. Following a season of historic wildfires and a continuing drought, the flood risk for Texans is higher because of a loss of trees and other vegetation with healthy roots that soak up rainwater, according to hazard mitigation specialists with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Storm runoff produced during a rain event can cause severe erosion, mudslides and flooding.

What teams risk in a lockout: Northwest Division
A look at what is at stake for the NBA's Northwest Division if a whole season was lost due to the lockout. Posted by Ben Golliver.
Talk of losing an entire NBA season is a bit ridiculous. But it's a possibility. And with all this hardline talk going on, it seems like neither the players nor the owners are wanting to budge. There's incentive for teams to get a deal done and not just for the money, but because a year without basketball and more importantly, basketball operations, could greatly affect each and every NBA franchise.
Earlier this week, we took a look at the Southeast Division, the Atlantic Division, the Central Division and the Southwest Division. Let's continue with the Northwest Division.
MINNESOTA Timberwolves
The NBA's worst team won just 17 games last year, had the league's seventh-worst home attendance and is generally mentioned at the top of the list of examples that "prove" the NBA's economic system is broken. That's because their local television, ticket and memorabilia revenue simply cannot compete with the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics of the world. Despite all of that, the Timberwolves might very well have more to lose than any other team in the Northwest Division if the league were to miss an entire season.
Let's start with 2009 lottery pick Ricky Rubio, who against all odds took the plunge and decided to finally join up with Minnesota. For multiple seasons, Rubio has represented hope, carrying Timberwolves fans through ugly winters and late-season collapses. The wait was excruciating. The uncertainty about whether he would or wouldn't stay in Europe further into the future made it worse. Now that he's on board, he's been greeted at an airport, introduced to his teammates, sold some jerseys and rallied the collective fan spirit a bit. To lose an entire season would make that interminable wait that much longer. It would also rob Rubio of a valuable development and acclimation year, which would be an absolute disaster. This is a point guard who needs to start on Day 1, entrusted with the full support of his coaching staff and allowed to make mistakes and build chemistry with his teammates while learning on the job. No season means no opportunity to do any of that.
Aside from Rubio, there are financial risks as well. That might be surprising, because the Timberwolves currently are the only team in the NBA that does not have anyone on their books for more than $6.3 million next season, a fairly astonishing accomplishment. Of course, there's a catch: All-Star power forward Kevin Love is on his rookie deal. Indeed, Love is heading into the last pure season of his rookie deal before Minnesota either must issue him a qualifying offer or sign him to an extension. Worse yet, it's possible that Love, one of the league's premier rebounders, will command a mini-max extension or close to it. The point here? He's set to make just $4.6 million next season, a bargain for his production. If the season is lost, the Timberwolves miss out completely on that outstanding value and are one year closer to biting the bullet on extending him without having reaped full benefits. That's tough.
Last but not least, a lost season is the perfect excuse for any franchise to delay tough decisions or to talk themselves into trying to make things work. With an imbalanced roster full of mixed and matched pieces, the Timberwolves, despite their accumulated talent, are going to struggle mightly again next season. The pains of those struggles, theoretically, could be enough to finally convince owner Glen Taylor to pull the plug on president David Kahn, a man who hasn't shown the ability to construct a team and outright wasted two second round draft picks on technical mistakes during the 2011 NBA Draft, by trading a hurt player (Jonny Flynn) and drafting someone who lied about his age (Tanguy Ngombo). A year without games, then, is a year without losses, which means another year for Kahn to preach patience and wiggle out of responsibility for this mess. The sooner Kahn is gone, the sooner this ship turns around. A lost season will make "sooner" feel like never.
OKLAHOMA CITY Thunder
While the Timberwolves need to get headed in the right direction, the Oklahoma City Thunder are already there. With the best designed roster in the league, two young All-Stars, an undisputed Northwest Division title and a Western Conference Finals appearance under their belt already, and a passionate fanbase that is guaranteed to provide 40+ home sellouts next season, the Thunder would happily start the season today. A lost season, then, would be a nightmare.
Name something, anything, and it's at risk for the Thunder. They lose the value of Russell Westbrook playing on a rookie deal. They lose the value of James Harden on a rookie deal. They lose the value of Serge Ibaka on a rookie deal. They lose one year of Kevin Durant's Hall of Fame playing career. They lose another season of playoff experience. They lose a very good chance at making a run at an NBA Finals. They lose a season of having their top eight players (Durant, Westbrook, Harden, Ibaka, Kendrick Perkins, Thabo Sefalosha, Nick Collison, Eric Maynor) all locked into affordable contracts. They lose the chemistry and momentum that goes with having an entire nucleus together for multiple years.
What's worse: they have nothing to gain from a work stoppage, other than perhaps the money that would come with increased revenue sharing. Without a single bad or untradeable contract on their books, there is no financial reason OKC would root for a year away from the game. In fact, any change to the Collective Bargaining Agreement that firms up the cap would make it more difficult for the Thunder to keep all this talent in house. That means they wouldn't get the chance to win now and their ability to win later could be compromised.
Usually, young teams that make a deep run through the playoffs can't wait to get back on the court for a second go-around. Multiply that feeling by about 10 and that's the situation facing OKC.
PORTLAND Trail Blazers
You might think the injury-plagued Trail Blazers would welcome some time off to lick their wounds and assess the damage, but missing an entire NBA season wouldn't necessarily be a good thing for this franchise. Really, it's a muddled picture.
The main benefit is clear: the Blazers have a very difficult cap situation next season, thanks to a mini-max contract for guard Brandon Roy, who is apparently no longer capable of reaching his previous All-Star level of play. Saving the $15 million owed to Roy, as well as the $10.5 million owed to aging center Marcus Camby, would be a tempting proposition for most small-market owners. Money aside, saving the miles on Roy's knees wouldn't hurt either.
Blazers owner and Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, however, has dealt with serious health problems in recent years and is clearly in spend-big, win-now mode. He would cut a check tomorrow for five times his team's total salary cap if it meant a shot at the NBA Finals, no questions asked. It's difficult to imagine a financial enticement that would make it worth Allen's while to take a year off.
Aside from Roy, the other big question is center Greg Oden. Missing an entire NBA season doesn't play in Oden's favor, as he hasn't taken the court for an NBA game since December 2009. A lost season means his layoff would extend nearly three full years to October 2012. That's a long, long time to be away from basketball. Complicating that further for the Blazers is the fact that Oden is a restricted free agent this summer. The Blazers would retain matching rights on Oden if a season was lost but they would be forced to offer him an extension without being able to see whether he recovers fully to be able to take the court and, more importantly, withstand injury once he's out there. Oden could command a mid-level type of offer on the open market, which would be a major investment for Portland, because the Blazers have already committed to nearly $80 million in salary for next season, with contracts to Roy, forwards LaMarcus Aldridge and Gerald Wallace and guard Wesley Matthews already on the books into the future. Without another center on their roster who is in their long-term plans, though, the Blazers wouldn't have a choice. They'd have to pay up. Given that situation, you want as much information as possible; a lost season would mean no information.
Finally, the Blazers have a big question at the starting point guard position. His name is Raymond Felton, and he was acquired in a draft day trade for previous point guard Andre Miller. Felton is in a contract year and hasn't played meaningful minutes with any of his current teammates, except for a stint in Charlotte with Wallace. Felton will require a good-sized contract extension next summer as well and the Blazers would surely like to see how he gels with their core, particularly Aldridge, before they commit to him long-term. Without any starting quality options on the roster, they would again find themselves stuck in a corner, forced to do what it takes to retain Felton without a readily available back-up plan.
To boil it down: the Blazers have enough questions without a lost season. Missing a full season would simply create an array of complications and made some tough roster decisions that much more difficult and, potentially, costly.
DENVER Nuggets
Sure, the Denver Nuggets lost franchise forward Carmelo Anthony to the New York Knicks, but they did an excellent job of stripping their roster down to allow for a quick bounceback rebuilding effort. The Nuggets, somewhat like the Thunder, are in a financial position where their salary cap situation makes it more advantageous for next season to take place unhindered. The Nuggets currently don't have a truly horrible contract on their books, although the mid-level deal for Al Harrington and the $15 million or so left to be paid to Chris Andersen over the next three years are regrettable. Indeed, the Nuggets have committed to less than $40 million in salary for next season, pending a potentially major financial commitment to big man Nene, who has decided to test the free agency waters, and a decision on guard J.R. Smith.
The biggest risks for Denver would be missing out on the value of point guard Ty Lawson on his rookie deal and managing whatever concerns might arise about Denver's ability to use its salary cap flexibility to continue work on its rebuilding situation. Most analysts believe teams with salary cap room will be in a position of strength, regardless of how the new CBA shakes out, so perhaps that uncertainty is more of an annoyance than a true concern.
The Nuggets have a lot of questions. How will they spend their money? Who will they bring back? Who will they let go? Are the players under contract currently good enough to compete for a playoff spot in the Western Conference next year or is it better to continue slashing and burning for another season? These are good questions to have because they all point to one fundamental truth: The Nuggets have flexibility thanks to their young, cheap assets. The worst case scenario is that Nuggets fans have to wait a year to watch a promising, athletic upstart group entertain. That's not too bad.
UTAH Jazz
If I'm the Jazz, I'm totally cool with taking a year off. A lost season means that Utah would save $14 million owed to Al Jefferson, $10.9 million owed to Mehmet Okur, $9.3 million owed to Devin Harris and $8.1 million owed to Paul Millsap. While Millsap is probably worth his number, the other three certainly aren't worth theirs, especially on a team that lost its foundational identity when it shipped franchise point guard Deron Williams to the New Jersey Nets at the trade deadline.
Right now, Utah's finances are pretty tight, with $61.5 million already committed for 2011-2012. Look ahead just one year, though, and that number drops to $48.7 million. To make things even nicer, Jefferson, Harris and Millsap will all be expiring that season. The Jazz will be poised to take advantage of their new-found flexibility, keeping the parts that fit (probably only Millsap) and dispensing with the rest.
The biggest risk in a cancelled season for Utah would be the lost development for younger guys like Derrick Favors, Gordon Hayward and 2011 first-round picks Enes Kanter and Alec Burks. In Favors, they have a potential franchise forward who needs to start enjoying a loose leash so he can blossom into the player the Jazz expect him to be. Forcing him to take a year off does him no good and, depending on how he responds, could do him some harm. Kanter, meanwhile, looks like an even bigger risk on paper because he was forced to sit out last year at Kentucky, his only year at the college level, due to eligibility issues and because he hasn't yet tasted the NBA game. A lost season would mean two full years away from competitive basketball, not an ideal situation for someone the Jazz selected with the No. 3 overall pick in this year's draft. As for Hayward and Burks, they are lesser concerns. Both have shown promise and clearly have room for improvement. Losing a year wouldn't be critical, but it would be better for them individually if it could be prevented.
On balance, the financial rewards seem to outweigh the development risks for the Jazz.

Mehmet Okur not retiring... yet
Posted by Royce Young
Last week, the Jazz officially announced what many of us already had figured out: Mehmet Okur was done for the rest of the season. Okur had been battling an Achilles injury, an ankle injury and a back injury. He tried to come back briefly during January, but as Okur admitted, it was too soon.
But with Okur shutting down after a lost season filled with injury, some thought he might be leaning towards retirement. Okur says not so fast.
"The smart thing was just to shut me down and get rehab and get ready to go next year," Okur told the Deseret News. "I should be OK. I'm not that old. I'm just 32. It's going to be a huge summer for me. Obviously, I'm going to keep getting rehab, especially start with my left leg and make it stronger, then my back. I can't wait."
Next year is the last year on Okur's contract (he's owed $10.9 million by the Jazz), so obviously he's looking to go ahead and cash those checks. But Okur said that he's got a few more years left in the tank and is hoping to play until his later 30s.
Easy to forget that Okur was a pretty darn good big man before injuries started slowing him down. He was an All-Star in 2007 and as a seven-footer with range past the 3-point line, he always was a difficult matchup for anyone. If he can get healthy, he'd surely make a difference for the Jazz next season and might be able to wrangle another contract after that.

Jazz C Mehmet Okur (back) out for season
Utah Jazz center Mehmet Okur has been ruled out for the season with a back injury. Posted by Ben Golliver.
When Utah Jazz center Mehmet Okur looks back on the 2010-2011 NBA season, he will view likely it as a lost year. Okur began the season rehabilitating from a ruptured Achilles suffered last April, and while he made it back to the court briefly, he strained his back in January.
The Jazz announced on Wednesday that the lower back strain had reached the point where it was in Okur's best interest to shut it down for the remainder of the season.
Following a complete and in-depth evaluation with Mehmet Okur, Jazz team orthopedist Dr. Lyle Mason, Utah Jazz medical staff and back rehabilitation specialist Dr. Graham Hill, Jazz general manager Kevin O'Connor announced today that it has been determined to be in Okur's best interest to discontinue any further attempts to return to play this season.
"His efforts and determination to return from his combined left Achilles' surgery and back issues may have put undue stress on his body," said O'Connor. "We feel that a concentrated effort to return his back and Achilles' conditions to acceptable levels is our main concern. Mehmet is expected to be at full speed for the start of the 2011-12 Jazz training camp."Things could be worse for Okur, 31, as he's under contract through the end of next season and set to earn $10.9 million in 2011-2012. He'll have the entire summer and any work stoppage to get his body right before making a run at his next payday.
On the season, Okur played 13 games and averaged 4.9 points and 2.3 rebounds in 12.9 minutes per game. In his absence, the always steady Jazz have imploded, as head coach Jerry Sloan resigned, franchise point guard Deron Williams was traded to the New Jersey Nets and the team is currently on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. If the Jazz don't make a late-season push, they will miss the playoffs for the first time since 2005-2006.

Your NBA Fantasy Black Friday Deals
Your NBA Black Friday Fantasy deals: come find the bargain fantasy guys you're looking for.
Posted by Kevin Goodwin
Well, folks, it's that time of year again. The day we shake off those paralyzing turkey chemicals and drag ourselves out of bed in the wee hours. The day we maraud from store to store like a pack of ravenous credit-wielding zombies. The day we do the ridiculous in the name of big deals and unparalleled savings. Black Friday hath cometh.
Fortunately, Fantasy owners don't even have to leave their couch to find great bargains … and it's the right time of year for those as well. I've got 10 super-saver steals that could put your team on the track to success in the New Year. Don't let those other fantasy shoppers beat you to the bargains!
1. Jose Calderon, guard, Toronto Raptors (Owned 77 percent/Started 36 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Calderon's Fantasy value is sky high, and Fantasy owners are clearing out long-term roster space to snatch him up. Since Jarrett Jack was traded to New Orleans, Calderon will see the lion's share of minutes up in Toronto. He has been producing at a high level recently, and is averaging 12.3 points and 6.5 assists over his last four games entering Black Friday. He should continue to perform for the Raptors, and for Fantasy owners from here on out.
Real Deal Equivalent: Squinkies Bubble Pack - $11.99 at Babies"R"Us
2. Jonny Flynn, guard, Minnesota Timberwolves (Owned 78 percent/Started 1 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Flynn still doesn't have a timetable for his return, but it's getting closer. Minnesota brought in veteran guard Luke Ridnour to push Flynn for the starting job this year, but a hip injury to Flynn deflated any competition. Now, Flynn will have to prove his worth to coach Kurt Rambis. We all know Rambis was limiting Kevin Love's minutes to start the season, so it's unclear how he'll treat Flynn when he does return. But Fantasy owners who are hurting in the guard position should keep an eye on Flynn. He has more of an upside than Ridnour, and can offer you around 13-15 points and 4-5 assists per game. He also shot 35.8 percent from downtown last season, which is a nice gift for Fantasy owners around the holidays.
Real Deal Equivalent: 1/3 Carat Diamond White Gold Bypass Bridal Ring Set - $219 at Wal-Mart
3. Troy Murphy, forward, New Jersey Nets (Owned 85 percent/Started 10 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Murphy has been inactive for five games now, and is sitting behind Kris Humphries and rookie Derrick Favors on the depth chart. Coach Avery Johnson hasn't been able to figure out what to do with Murphy. He missed the preseason and the start of the regular season with a back injury, but is now on the shelf because of his conditioning. The Nets traded for Murphy with the hope that he could be a starter, and now he's not playing or bringing in any Fantasy points. Not what anyone wants from a Round 5 or 6 draft choice (his average in CBSSports.com Fantasy leagues). Still, in leagues where he's available, Murphy would be worth grabbing while you can. If he gets traded by the Nets, he could go back to his 15-10 stat line, and smart Fantasy owners could get him on the cheap if they can afford to keep him reserved until he sees more court time. Keep in mind, Murphy also has a history of late-season success -- Since the 2006-07 NBA season he's averaged 11.7 points and 8.7 rebounds per game before the All-Star break and 14.8 PPG and 9.1 boards post All-Star.
Real Deal Equivalent: Samsung SMX-F40 SD camcorder - $119 at K-Mart
4. Mehmet Okur, center, Utah Jazz (Owned 58 percent/Started 2 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Okur hasn't played yet this season, and is available in almost half of Fantasy leagues. With the Jazz playing so well to start the year, owners with room on their roster may have good reason to add the veteran big man. As a career 37.8 3-point shooter, Okur is hardly a typical center, which makes him a nice player to own in category-based leagues. Utah's addition of Al Jefferson may scare some owners off, but nabbing Okur now before a timetable is set could pay nice dividends.
Real Deal Equivalent: Yankee Candle Pine & Cinnamon Jar Candles - $17.99 at Kohl's
5. Joel Przybilla, center, Portland Trail Blazers (Owned 6 percent/Started 0 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Przybilla is set to make his season debut on Black Friday, which gives Fantasy owners a perfect opportunity to check him out. He'll likely be rusty coming off knee surgery, but is a center worth keeping tabs on or adding in deeper formats. He doesn't score many points, but is a good source of rebounds and shoots with high efficiency from the field -- 55.5 percent for his career. Also, take in to account that Portland needs bodies on the frontcourt, which means Przybilla will get plenty of playing time. Remember he should be targeted in deeper Fantasy formats, not standard leagues.
Real Deal Equivalent: Craftsman 179cc 24'' Two-stage Snowblower - $583 at Sears
6. Caron Butler, forward, Dallas Mavericks (Owned 94 percent/Started 55 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Butler isn't having a very good start to the season, which means now is the time to buy. Some Fantasy owners may want to drop him, but realize he's worth too much to just throw away. That being the case, they may be willing to part with Butler for next to nothing. He hasn't fully adjusted to being in Dallas since coming over from Washington, and the one thing that would help Butler's Fantasy appeal most is being traded. So, owners that like to gamble could make the move for Butler now. Last year, Butler averaged 15.2 points and 5.4 boards with the Mavericks, so the potential is there for Fantasy owners to see a nice return on their investment.
Real Deal Equivalent: 55" Westinghouse 120Hz, 1080p LCD TV - $799.99 at Best Buy
7. Brandon Roy, guard, Portland Trail Blazers (Owned 99 percent/Started 22 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Roy should be owned in every Fantasy league out there, but while he battles knee injuries, owners are definitely grinding their teeth for drafting him so high. Some owners may be looking to jump ship, since this is the lowest Roy's Fantasy value has ever been, and that means it's the perfect time to get an upper echelon guard for dirt cheap. If you can pry Roy away from another owner, there's a good chance he would make your team better immediately. Portland may limit his court time to preserve him for the year, but Roy has the ability to produce solid numbers in 20-25 minutes of action.
Real Deal Equivalent: High-Performance Samsung Laptops - $150 off at Best Buy
8. Darren Collison, guard, Indiana Pacers (Owned 98 percent/Started 55 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Collison was undoubtedly overvalued entering this year. He was taken with an average draft pick of 40, based solely on his 18.8 points, 9.1 assists and 3.5 rebounds as a starter last year in New Orleans. This means that current owners are probably very disappointed with his 14.3 points and 4.3 boards per game through the first five weeks of the season. I smell a sale. Collison still has the potential to be a 17 and 7 guy, and owners should check their league and see if they can strike up a deal.
Real Deal Equivalent: All adult jeans - $15 at Old Navy
9. Vince Carter, guard, Orlando Magic (Owned 95 percent/Started 54 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Carter is currently dealing with some bumps and bruises which are keeping him out of the Magic lineup. He's also averaging career-lows in points, rebounds and assists: 13.9, 3.2 and 2.5, respectively. Clearly, Carter is no longer the high-flyer he once was, but he does have the capability to go off on any given night. Again, we've got a player who could be reeled in for cheap based on the disappointment tied to inflated preseason expectations. If you don't mind being patient with the veteran, trading for Carter could be a steal.
Real Deal Equivalent: Radio Flyer Big Wheel - $35 at Wal-Mart
10. Chris Andersen, forward, Denver Nuggets (Owned 10 percent/Started 2 percent)
Fantasy Shopping Cart: Andersen just made his season debut for the Nuggets, which is why he's available in 90 percent of CBSSports.com Fantasy leagues. He's coming off an offseason knee surgery, so he's a bit of a risky option, but there are definitely Fantasy owners out there who are in desperate need of a big man. Injury bug, anyone? Those owners might be happy to see Andersen fill a void in their lineups. He's not worth owning in standard leagues, but is definitely worth a flier in deeper Rotisserie formats. He's a bargain and a half right now.
Real Deal Equivalent: 46" APEX LCD TV, 1080p 60 Hz - $449 at Target

Preseason Primer: Utah Jazz
Posted by Matt Moore
Losing your second best player to free agency should be the kind of thing that sets your franchise back coniderably (don't tell the Suns). But the Utah Jazz, the model of consistency in the NBA since Jerry Sloan took over back in the Paleozoic Era, they just keep plugging right along. Making smart, well-reasoned decisions have led them to replacing Carlos Boozer with Al Jefferson. The question is if they can pick up where they left off. And that's where we begin the latest of our Preseason Primers with the Utah Jazz.
Training camp site: Salt Lake City, Utah
Training camp starts: September 28th
Key additions: Al Jefferson (trade), Raja Bell (free agency), Francisco Elson (free agency)
Key subtractions: Carlos Boozer (free agency), Kyle Korver (free agency), Wesley Matthews (free agency), Kosta Koufos (traded)
Likely starting lineup: Deron Williams (PG), C.J. Miles (SG), Andrei Kirilenko (SF), Al Jefferson (PF), Mehmet Okur (C)
Player to watch: Paul Millsap. Al Jefferson was brought in to replace Carlos Boozer, after Paul Millsap was given a huge new contract to replace Boozer. Now that Jefferson has arrived, Millsap finds himself in one of two positions entering camp. He either needs to battle on the glass and play "big" enough to prove he can play in tandem with Jefferson, or he needs to detonate to a degree where Sloan has a legitimate quandray on his hands between the two. Under the right circumstances, either is possible, though neither is likely.
Chemistry quiz: This really all comes down to Jefferson. Deron Williams is still the floor general, and many of the Jazz players have been there for years. Jefferson faces tremendous pressure not only to make an impact immediately, but to work in tandem with Deron Williams and commit himself to Sloan's defensive principles. The Jazz aren't exactly a superstar-centric team, and Jefferson has to prove he can fit that model from the get-go.
Camp battles: Outside of the aforementioned Millsap-Jefferson rumble, shooting guard should be lively. Raja Bell has had enough time off to be completely healthy, but he's got a lot of miles on those wheels. C.J. Miles has a fresher set of treads, but he's also maddeningly inconsistent.
Injury issues: Deron Williams was severely banged up at the end of last season, so keeping him in the best health possible is top priority. Mehmet Okur may or may not be available by start of the season, so that will be the biggest injury to keep an eye on. The Jazz have been banged up in general over the past few years, and that's before you factor in the knee problems of Al Jefferson. Keep the tape handy, trainer man.
Biggest strength: Versatility. The Jazz have the ability to get up the floor, to slow it down when need be, to work out of the post to an improved degree, and to hit from the perimeter. They play solid defense and can compete with anyone. Those elements shouldn't shift much with the new additions.
Glaring weakness: Cohesiveness. The Jazz have mostly had positive runs over the past six years, but the lows tend to be really low. Jerry Sloan will need to work with what is now a younger team to develop consistency. Additionally, while the Jazz have been very good, they've lacked a ceiling of great. That's the level they need to get to if they want to contend in the West.

Now that Dan Tangherlini has departed for the private sector, Turner Roth has been just named acting administrator. She joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with more on her plans for her time at the agency's helm.

Dan Tangherlini, administrator, General Services Administration
Dan Tangherlini calls back office functions in government "the boiler room." And he has positioned the General Services Administration to be the leader in providing services that stoke the boiler for agencies across government. Friday is his last day as GSA Administrator. On In Depth with Francis Rose, he discussed the federal real estate portfolio, GSA's establishment of 18F as one of the early leaders in digital services in government, and much more.
From scandal's aftermath to 18F, Tangherlini reflects on tenure at GSA
When Dan Tangherlini took over as the General Services Administration administrator in 2012, it was embroiled in the aftermath of the conference scandal. Stepping down after three years later, he reflects on how the agency has transformed itself.

Avoiding the projective hierarchy in expansions of the real field by sequences

Despite having three spots in their lineup open, Vandalia's wrestlers kept the Vandals' regional title streak alive on Saturday.
Chaston Womack has joined the 100 Club.
A Vandalia Community High School junior, Womack recently recorded the 100th victory of his prep wrestling career.
He joins Vandalia teammates Dalton Blankenship, Ryne Lipsey and Jake Stewart in the 100 Club.
Womack began the season with 71 wins. He recorded win No. 100 of his career at Petersburg-PORTA on Jan. 24.
"It was a great feeling," Womack said of getting to 100 career victories. "It's a good accomplishment. A lot of people strive for it."
ALTAMONT — South Central overcame a double-digit deficit and knocked off St. Elmo/Brownstown, 59-47, in the third-place game of the 2015 National Trail Conference Tournament.
The Cougars were down 10 points early in the game, 18-8. But they rallied in the second quarter and never looked back.
Three players reached double figures for the Cougars, as Brett Harmeier had 16 points, Dre Hill scored 12 and Evan Langley added 11.
Landon Feezel scored 19 points to lead the Eagles (8-14). He was the only SEB player in double figures.
FLORA — The Vandalia Lady Vandals had the lead early, but the Flora Wolfgals controlled the second half in a 56-37 victory on Monday night.
Flora outscored Vandalia 36-17 in the second half after the game was tied at halftime.
A solid Flora squad improved to 23-3 on the season. Flora has already wrapped up the Little Illini Conference title and the Wolfgals are having one of the best seasons in school history.
Vandalia fell to 15-12 on the season.
When the Vandalia Vandals played at Litchfield in December, they let one slip away.
Not this time.
History did not repeat itself, as the Vandals held off the Litchfield Panthers late, securing a 62-54 home victory on Friday night.
The loss avenged a Dec. 19 loss to the Panthers. In that game, the Vandals overcame an 11-point deficit late in the game, but then couldn't hold on, suffering a disappointing loss.
In Friday's rematch, the Vandals built a 10-point lead early in the game, and then held off the Panthers in the fourth quarter.
On the night the seniors were recognized, one of them came up with arguably the biggest shot of the game.
With the host Lady Vandals clinging to a four-point lead, visiting Roxana appeared to have all of the momentum.
But Vandalia senior forward Elizabeth Miller caught a pass, took a dribble and scored in the lane to make it a six-point game with time running out.
The hoop proved key as the Vandalia Lady Vandals knocked off Roxana, 55-46, on Thursday night.
It was Miller's only hoop of the game, but it was a big one.
LITCHFIELD — With four individuals champions and eight total medalists, the Vandalia Vandals finished second in the final team standings at the 2015 Rich Lovellette Panther Wrestling Tournament on Saturday.
Lena-Winslow won the team title with 213.5 points. Vandalia was second (165), Auburn was third (163), with Murphsyboro (161) and Orion (144) fourth and fifth, respectively. Other top 10 teams were West Frankfort, Litchfield, MICDS, Roxana and Harrisburg.
PANA — By doing just enough down the stretch, the Vandalia Vandals survived and escaped with a 66-63 win at Pana on Tuesday night.
A wild finish ended with Pana's Adam Miller missing a potential game-tying jumper, as the Vandals made enough foul shots late to secure a rivalry victory.
"That was crazy," Vandalia Coach Brian Buscher said of the game. "The kids played through it, though. I've been coaching since 1999, and it always seems to be crazy when we come to Pana."
Buscher said his squad got it done in crunch time.
"It wasn't pretty, but we'll take it."
That's how Michelle McNary summed up her team's 33-31 win over Greenville on Tuesday night.
The Lady Vandals had a double-digit lead, but the Comets put together a late spurt to make things interesting.
In the end, the hosts made enough free throws to hold on for the hard-fought win.
PETERSBURG — The Vandalia Community High School wrestling team improved to 24-7 in duals after two close wins on Saturday.
Vandalia defeated Beardstown, 40-39.
The Vandals also edged Petersburg-PORTA, 40-37.
Beardstown won by forfeit at 106 pounds, but Vandalia's Jarrett Paslay won by forfeit at 113.
Jake Lux of Beardstown defeated Chaston Womack, 3-2, at 120. Ryne Lipsey of Vandalia pinned Casimir Amare in 42 seconds at 126.

WASHINGTON Defense Secretary Robert Gates announced plans on Tuesday to overhaul Cold War-era rules on selling military equipment and technology abroad, saying they undermined national security, hurt defense industries and caused friction with allies.
Outlining a major administration effort championed by U.S. industry but likely to face resistance in Congress, Gates called for streamlining a regulatory system guided by a "byzantine amalgam of authorities, roles and missions."
"America's decades-old, bureaucratically labyrinthine system does not serve our 21st-century security needs or our economic interests," Gates told an audience of business executives in Washington.
"It is clear our current limitations in this area undermine our ability to work with and through partners to confront shared threats and challenges -- from terrorism to rogue states to rising powers."
Gates proposed a new system where "higher walls are placed around fewer, more critical items," and one which would streamline regulations to create a single export control list, a single licensing agency and a single enforcement agency.
He said the Obama administration would start laying the groundwork for these reforms in the coming months and "would love" to get legislation approved this year.
"We need a system that dispenses with the 95 percent of 'easy' cases and lets us concentrate our resources on the remaining 5 percent," Gates said.
Evoking national security as the main reason to overhaul export controls is a departure from failed attempts at reform in years past, which focused instead on how the rules hurt American industry by reducing U.S. exports.
A study by the Milken Institute for the National Association of Manufacturers estimated that modernizing export controls could boost real U.S. economic output by $64 billion and create 160,000 manufacturing jobs.
Executives welcomed the push but questioned whether Gates wasn't promising too much, too fast, given a heavy agenda in Congress that includes financial regulatory reform.
"It's very ambitious, to say the least," said Catherine Robinson, director of export controls for the National Association of Manufacturers.
Any reforms would have win over skeptics in Congress, adverse to relaxing controls on technologies sought by adversaries. Still, initial reaction from both Republicans and Obama's Democrats was positive, if cautious.
"We need to ensure it results in greater protection and monitoring of key defense items and technologies," said Howard McKeon, the ranking Republican member of the House Armed Services Committee.
Gates has criticized NATO allies for failing to invest enough in defense and championed getting U.S. technology into the hands of its closest allies.
In his speech, Gates said existing controls kept technology from allies, something which "tests their patience and goodwill and hinders their ability to operate with U.S. forces."
He cited a case of a British C-17 aircraft that spent hours disabled on the ground in Australia because U.S. law required Australians to seek U.S. permission before repairing it.
"These are two of our very strongest allies for God's sake," Gates exclaimed.
He called for the U.S. Senate to approve defense cooperation treaties with the United Kingdom and Australia before the summer recess in August.
A former director of the CIA, Gates noted how international consensus on technology transfer "has completely collapsed" since the end of the Cold War. He voiced hope that a simpler system could win back allies' support for restrictions.

|Rockies, Orioles win lottery for draft picks
|Written by Admin
|Wednesday, 17 July 2013 13:17
The lottery involved the 10 teams with the lowest revenue and 10 in the smallest markets and was six picks after the first round. A club's odds of winning the lottery were based on its winning percentage last season.
The teams that did not win a pick after the first round were entered into another lottery for picks after the second round.
The Padres, Diamondbacks, Cardinals, Rays, Pirates and Mariners won second-round picks.
The competitive balance draft was agreed upon as part of the labor agreement that went into effect in 2012.

Niskayuna police are investigating a Friday, April 17, murder-suicide in which 20-year-old Niskayuna man Even Schwarz allegedly shot Anthony Marko, 21, of Schenectady, before killing himself.
The incident is still under investigation, according to Niskayuna Police Department Chief of Police Lewis Moskowitz.
According to Sgt. Eric Clifford of the City of Schenectady Police Department, Schwarz was the boyfriend of Marko's wife.
It sounds crazy because it was such an amazing scenario [of events] of what happened, said Clifford. "The shooter was the boyfriend, the victim was the husband, and they shared a female, obviously."
The shooting took place at the home of Marko at 845 Union St. According to Schenectady police, Schwarz pulled up outside of Marko's home and asked him to come outside to talk. It was then, police said, that Schwarz shot and killed Marko.
"Based on the time of the call [from the girlfriend], which was right around 8 p.m., to the time that he actually shot himself, which was 8:30 " in that half-hour time frame there really wasn't that much that happened other than that he shot the one person, went back to his house and killed himself," said Clifford.
Prior to the shooting on Union Street, which occurred around 8 p.m., the girlfriend called the Niskayuna police to report that she was concerned about him and his behavior.
"She had actually called the police to warn them that he was going to do something and had just purchased a shotgun," said Robert Carney, Schenectady County District Attorney. "[The Niskayuna police department] was handling that call when they heard about the shooting in Schenectady."
Carney said that a dispatcher in Niskayuna heard the call from Schenectady police and realized that some of the details from the call matched the call from the girlfriend "warning them about her boyfriend's intentions."

Heads Up!

This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
Montreal is a city with a great many attractions, but its biggest draw may well be its beautiful women. I don't know if there's something in the water there, but an unusually high percentage of the city's female population are hotties. If you don't have the time or money to visit Montreal at the moment, you can go to Montreal Dream and see a small sample of what the city has to offer.
Having spent a good deal of time in Montreal during my life, I can tell you that the 60+ models found on MontrealDream give you a pretty good idea of the wide range of beauties that you'll find in the city. From nubile cuties to MILFs to skinny chicks to chubby ones, the entire spectrum of babes is covered. This diversity of models essentially assures that you'll find at least one who'll be to your tastes.
The number of sets for each chick can vary, but the quality seems to be pretty consistent. All the pictures I saw looked good. In all, there are 355 photo sets and they mostly show the various hotties stripping and posing.
There are videos to see on the site as well and they can be found in their own section. Unfortunately, they're not as well organized as the pictures, so you might have to do a little searching to find a movie that features your favorite Montrealer. There are 107 vids to view at the moment and they depict the cuties getting naked and masturbating.
They are available for download in Windows Media and MP4 files. Generally the vids are average in quality, but there are a few with excellent-quality bit rates. You can also stream each vid in an embedded Flash player.
You also get access to 27 bonus sites, video feeds and live cams. Addison St James, Lactalia, Inked Andi and Suicide Scarlett are just four of the sites that you can check out once you're done with the sexy chicks from Quebec's biggest city. As far as updating goes, with nothing being dated I can't tell you how often they are adding new movies.
Montreal Dream provides a good amount of content for a reasonable price and its bonuses add some value as well (although many of them aren't updating at all). If you can't visit Montreal in person, you may as well enjoy the city's gorgeous gals from afar.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

If you're like most Americans, you talk - a lot. If you're a doctor, lawyer, teacher or performer, you probably never give your voice a rest. All that chattering can mean problems for your vocal cords, but there are steps you can take to save your voice.
Janette Deschamps jumps, twists and sings four times a week at her church. But a few months ago, she lost her voice.
"Notes that I could sing, I couldn't sing anymore, so I started wondering, what is going on?" she said.
Deschamps had blisters on her vocal cords. She was over-using her voice, something more and more of us are doing.
"We're very demanding on our voices. We have a tendency to work hard. We have a tendency to play hard," said Dr. Jeffrey Leghman, otolaryngologist.
And it's not just performers. Anyone who talks a lot is at risk. When you speak incorrectly, your vocal cords collide and swell. And smokers are also at risk.
To prevent problems: don't smoke; drink enough water - about eight glasses a day; avoid caffeine; alcohol and spicy foods; use e-mail or texting when you can; take a deep breath before you speak; don't talk too loudly, but don't whisper either.
"A strained whisper like this actually causes more friction on the vocal folds," said Bari Hoffman-Ruddy, PhD, University of Central Florida.
Deschamp is learning new ways to breathe when she sings. She hopes they will help her keep her most prized gift: her voice.
Experts say if your have hoarseness or discomfort, you should first try to rest your voice for about a week. If symptoms persist, see a doctor.
