New export peak tipped to tail off
Relevant offers
March's record $920 million trade surplus was slightly stronger than market expectations but economists say exports, which passed $5 billion for the first time last month, have likely peaked.
Exports in March increased by $672 million, or 15 per cent, on the same month a year ago, driven by particular strength in dairy, meat, logs, wine and fruit.
The country's top trading partner continued to be China, as exports boomed by 54 per cent in the March quarter, compared with last year.
Meat and fruit led the increase in exports for the second consecutive quarter, Statistics New Zealand international statistics manager Jason Attewell said.
This was slightly offset by a fall in dairy product exports of 2.4 per cent.
But, for the month of March, dairy exports were up $474m, or 45 per cent, compared with March last year.
Exports were worth $5.1b last month, led largely by the increase in dairy exports.
"This is the first time monthly exports have exceeded $5b and annual exports have exceeded $50b," Attewell said.
BNZ economist Doug Steel said there were few surprises in the March trade figures.
It was the largest trade surplus for the month but there had been little market reaction following the result.
The healthy surplus and growth in two-way trade, however, were supportive of ongoing economic growth, he said.
"We think the monthly trade figures will look exceptionally good for a few months yet.
"But the double-digit annual export growth rates that we see over the coming few months will eventually fade, as the declines we have already seen in global dairy trade auction prices start to come through in the trade figures with the usual lag," Steel said.
In mid-April, dairy prices continued their recent slide, falling 2.6 per cent at the latest global dairy auction.
The average winning price was US$4047 (NZ$4750) a tonne, down from US$4124 at the previous auction.
Westpac senior economist Michael Gordon said exports had reached what would likely be their peak for the near future.
March was traditionally the strongest month for exports, he said.
"This is likely to mark the peak month for New Zealand's exports, at least for now.
"While dairy prices in the GlobalDairyTrade auction system began to fall sharply in March, these prices related to contracts for delivery in April and beyond."
As such, the impact of these falling prices would likely show in the trade figures over the coming months.
ASB rural economist Nathan Penny said dairy exports continued to lead the data, though March saw meat exports "join the party".
It appeared a recovery in meat-export volumes was now firmly entrenched, he said.
The United Kingdom market was recovering, while the United States and Chinese markets also continued to grow.
"It's hard to pinpoint the exact source of the meat-export recovery, but we can have a stab at a few.
"It may also simply be that production has held up better than expected following the 2013 drought."
Imports during March rose $483m, or 13 per cent, mostly because of a one-off import of a $216m oil-drilling platform.
Penny said import values were lagging for now but the Christchurch rebuild and broader economic recovery were driving a surge in capital exports.
But households continued to show restraint, he said.
"Sure the high NZ dollar and low inflation are helping, but continued modest consumption and consumption goods import growth suggest that households' cautious ways remain intact, at least to a degree."

E-crime investigations hit by specialists doing 'dog work'
Local police forces lack the resources either to outsource administrative tasks to the private sector or to employ civilian specialists to do the work, said Bob Ayers, former head of the information warfare programme at the US Department of Defense.
"We have a fundamental issue with cybercrime. We are not doing a very good job. The police are technically under-resourced," said Ayers, who has advised companies such as BP, CitiGroup and American Express on their IT security.
Ayers, who will be speaking at the Infosecurity conference, said police forces were making a false economy by using highly trained staff to carry out "dog work".
"It may be cheaper in terms of the impact on their budget, but not on the impact of criminal investigations," he said.
Ayers called for the police to be given funds to invest in technology to automate the initial analysis and copying of hard discs, thereby freeing up officers for more productive work.
He suggested that too many of the UK's high-tech policing resources were directed at fighting online paedophiles, at the expense of investigations into hackers and online fraudsters, and urged the government to make cybercrime a higher policing priority.
"When you choose to prioritise police resources to catch speeders on the M4, you are saying,'this is more important than cybercrime'. We need to reassess how we allocate resources," he said.

Five reasons to switch from Windows to Linux
Linux has been in the ascendancy ever since the open source operating system was released, and has been improved and refined over time so that a typical distribution is now a polished and complete package comprising virtually everything the user needs, whether for a server or personal system. Much of the web runs on Linux, and a great many smartphones, and numerous other systems, from the Raspberry Pi to the most powerful supercomputers. So is it time to switch from Windows to Linux? Here are five reasons why.

Grizzlies' Wright says Rockets better minus Francis
HOUSTON (AP) -- Playing without star guard Steve Francis didn't seem to bother the Houston Rockets.
Cuttino Mobley scored 29 points and the Rockets held off a late
Memphis Grizzlies rally for a 93-82 victory Saturday night, despite
Francis being sidelined with a strained lower back.
"I knew I had to pick up the slack without Steve,'' Mobley
said. "There are roles that you've got to take on and I had to
take on that role tonight. Moochie (Norris) was great. He got the
ball around to everybody and he ran the team well.
"He was the general out there.''
Mobley had 20 points in the first half as the Rockets snapped a
three-game home losing streak. Yao Ming had 18 points and seven
rebounds while Norris, starting in place of Francis, had nine
points and nine assists.
"I just wanted to come in and make plays,'' Norris said. "I'm
not going to shoot the ball and try to score 20-plus points like
Steve. I'm more of a playmaker. I think I did my job tonight. I did
my job, we got the win and the coaches were happy.''
Francis will be reevaluated on Monday prior to a game at Boston
but Grizzlies forward Lorenzen Wright thought the Rockets might
have even been better off with Francis nursing his injuries.
"They play better when he's not out there,'' Wright said.
"That lets the other guys show what they can do. The other guys
pick up their game. He carries so much of the scoring, when he's
not out there, everybody else can play and divide it evenly.''
The Rockets held a 25-point lead at 84-59 early in the fourth
but the Grizzlies outscored Houston 23-10 in the final quarter to
make the game close.
Wright led Memphis with 24 points and tried to slow Yao.
"I'm normally not that aggressive, but tonight I wanted to come
out aggressive, because he's so big, I can't shoot over him, I had
to go around him,'' Wright said.
Leading 56-45 at the half, Houston used a 21-5 run over the
final 6:52 of the third quarter to take an 83-59 lead. Memphis was
playing its second game in as many nights, after losing to New
Orleans 125-123 in overtime Friday night.
Mobley scored 11 first-quarter points and Glen Rice scored 12 in
the second as the Rockets used a 13-3 run to take a 56-45 halftime
"Cat (Mobley) had a big game,'' Rockets coach Rudy Tomjanovich
said. "He loves these situations. He did it all the time last
year. Cat carried us tonight.''
The Rockets used a 15-4 run to take a 23-12 lead in the first
quarter. The Grizzlies scored the next four baskets before Maurice
Taylor's basket ended a 3:50 scoreless run for the Rockets and gave
them a 25-21 lead heading into the second quarter.
"It was one of the poorest efforts we've had in a long time
and, despite that, we were able to get close in the second half,''
Grizzlies coach Hubie Brown said. "Unfortunately, we didn't get it
Tomjanovich watched Yao closely in the closing minutes of the
"He's tired,'' Tomjanovich said. "He's mentally tired more so
than physically. I've told him through his interpreter some
techniques I used when I played to try to rest your mind.''
Game notes
Prior to the game, the Grizzlies activated guard Brevin
Knight and placed forward Ryan Humphrey on the injured list with a
sprained left ankle. Knight had been on the injury list since Feb.

Wis. police create viral videos to catch criminals
The police captain hopes that spreading the faces of misdemeanor offenders will prompt more tips or people turning themselves in
By PoliceOne Staff
GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Green Bay Police Department are trying a new approach to catching criminals — by posting a weekly video called 'Wheel of Warrants' to YouTube, which features the mug shots of misdemeanor offenders.
Captain Bill Bongle came up with idea, and says he hopes it will catch the community's attention, according to Fox 11.
"Everybody knows these are serious situations that people are getting offenses for. We've tried other things without a lot of success," Bongle said. "There are a lot of warrants out there and a lot of these people have not been held accountable."
The city has 1,100 outstanding warrants that continue to be investigated. Though no one has been turned in yet as a result from the YouTube video, Bongle says more than 1,000 people have watched the clip, and the department's Facebook page has seen much more traffic.

The Milwaukee Bucks are having a decent enough season, but the team is exploring possible trade options to make their team better. However, there is one player they do not plan to trade. Despite being linked to trade rumors, the Bucks have no desire to trade Brandon Jennings.
According to Marc Stein of ESPN, Jennings is the least likely player on the Bucks' roster to be trade. He is a restricted free agent after the season, and Milwaukee wants to see what he will get in terms of offers. They will be allowed to match any offer and keep Jennings if they so choose.
Jennings suffered an ankle injury back in November, but he has been healthy for most of the season. He has been a big part of the Bucks' success this season. Jennings is averaging 18.5 points and 5.9 assists per game this season. In his career, Jennings has averaged 17.1 points and 5.5 assists per game.
The Bucks are 19-17 on the season. They are sitting in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, but they want to ensure they stay in the playoff picture. To do so, the team is exploring trade options. They will only make a move, though, if it makes them better right now.

Tsume is obviously my Favourite character out of the whole Wolf's Rain series. This ep is particularly special since it showed Tsume finally becoming one with the pack of wolves that he wound up traveling with. Though he doesn't appear to believe in Paradise, or in the Flower Maiden; he discover's that when he split up with them, he needed them. With Toboe going out to look for him, worried about his new friend getting hurt, though Tsume had pushed him away a few times, the young wolf doesn't know when to give up.
Tsume get's far enough from Toboe to be alone, though Toboe begins to howl to try and get his friend's attention. In the end he get's unwanted attention via an old machine that appears to want to track down wolves and kill them. This is where you learn that although Tsume acts like a tough guy, he really is anything but tough; considering that he saves Toboe on this occassion. You also learn that Kiba; unlike Tobie, didn't save Tsume from the machine because he thinks they are friends, but on 'instinct'. Which shows what kind of wolf he is. It may not impress a lot of people, but I loved this ep.moreless

On July 27, 1656, Baruch Spinoza was ejected from the Jewish community of Amsterdam by its Sephardic leadership.The ban on Spinoza was harsh – but he deserved it. The philosopher rejected the authority of the Hebrew Bible, the authority of the rabbis, and his Jewish identity. While he never formally converted to Christianity, he left the Jewish community and lived as a philosopher who turned his back on his past. It would be hard to describe his philosophical works as Jewish.Yet, despite all of this, Spinoza deserves our admiration: he dissented and stood up for what he truly believed. That is admirable – and necessary in a free society.

Don Auriello Shines Bright with Tinne Vilhelmson-Silfven in First FEI Grand Prix Freestyle of "Friday Night Stars" at AGDF
RELEASE: January 11, 2014
AUTHOR/ADMINISTRATOR: Jennifer Wood Media, Inc.
Don Auriello and Tinne Vilhelmson-Silfven (Susan J. Stickle)
Wellington, Fla.
- January 10, 2014 - The Adequan Global Dressage Festival kicked off the "Friday Night Stars" series with an exciting FEI Grand Prix Freestyle competition and full spectator stands at The Stadium at Palm Beach International Equestrian Center. Leading the way was Tinne Vilhelmson-Silfven (SWE) on Don Auriello, who won with a score of 81.575%. Lars Petersen (DEN) and Mariett scored 76.925% for second place. Fellow Dane Mikala Munter Gundersen and My Lady placed third with a score of 74.825%.
The first week of the AGDF, sponsored by MTICA Farm and Everglades Dressage, runs through Sunday, January 12. The AGDF continues for 11 more weeks of top dressage competition through March 30.
Vilhelmson-Silfven started with a win in yesterday's FEI Grand Prix class, but with the different atmosphere of the lights and spectators, she felt like Don Auriello handled the change well. "Today was a great atmosphere here. I really had a lot of fun riding in there today," she said. "I think Don Auriello got a little bit impressed, but then he focused and was really nice to ride the whole way through. It was lovely with so many spectators, and the feeling in here is really great."
She said of her test, "My highlight was really that he did let me ride, and I had a great feeling. He does everything without a big effort. It's a really nice feeling when you feel the horse is so mature that you can just ride. I think I had that today. The pirouettes is one of his highlights, and the piaffes."
Petersen said that he knows his music "in and out." He added with a laugh, "I also knew exactly where I was in places that I should not have been! But otherwise it's a great atmosphere to ride here; I think it's like riding anywhere."
He noted that Mariett was "a little bit tense, a little spooky," but that "overall though, it's the first show, so I was pretty happy." He continued, "I think the piaffe, passage was good. I normally get really good marks for my music (too)."
Gundersen has been working on her new freestyle routine for three months and had only ridden it at national shows to practice. "My Lady was unbelievable," she related. "She was paying attention, not looking at anything outside. I'm crazy about the music. I think it suits her very well. I think I had good piaffes, good changes. I was particularly happy with the walk. She was very relaxed in the walk and did very well. It doesn't sound interesting to be excited about the walk, but it was a bit of a highlight! I'm glad that she's relaxed enough with the big atmosphere to show a good walk."
Gundersen commented on the great turnout for the event. "I know there were a lot of people. I was very happy to see that because it's the beginning of the season. I'm happy we have so many spectators for a dressage show," she said.
Janne Rumbough of MTICA Farm, the sponsor of the class, noted, "It's wonderful that we have this here. I've been here a long time and seen dressage develop. Look at these riders and these horses. This is what we worked on for so many years. I look at the spectators tonight, and I believe the freestyle is the answer to have people enjoy dressage. What these three people showed today was beautiful. I'm just so pleased and thanks to Mark Bellissimo for doing this."
Allyn Mann of Adequan, the title sponsor of the GDF, was also on-hand to watch the first CDI of the season. "I would say year three started off beautifully. It's really humbling to come here and to have the opportunity to support a wonderful event and to see these wonderful riders and horses really embellish the sport of dressage," he remarked. "We're excited, and we did exceed expectations already. If this is as good as it gets for the season, I would be gracious and humbled by it. But I think it's going to continue to improve. As the prize money does continue to grow, I think we'll see a continuation of wonderful riders and horses be a part of this great dressage world."
Caroline Roffman and Bon Chance (SusanJStickle)
It was a win on home turf for Caroline Roffman (USA) and Bon Chance today during the FEI Prix St. Georges. Fellow U.S. rider Heather Mason and Zar followed in second place with a score of 69.711%, and Spanish rider Juan Matute Jr. with Don Diego Ymas rounded out the top three at 68.9974%.
Coming off a year of 'vacation' for the 8-year-old chestnut gelding, Roffman was very pleased with how he performed for her. "I haven't shown him for a year, but for him, he'll get better with each show," she commented. "That's what he needs."
Bon Chance, imported from Germany, was broke by Roffman herself. With her, he competed in the four, five and six year old US championships, with great success. "He was reserve four year old champion, five year old champion, tied for six year old champion. So yeah, he has had a pretty successful career!" she said with a smile.
Although Bon Chance is a sales horse in her roster, she is more than happy to continue showing him, saying he shows a lot of promise in the ring. "He has a lot of swing, a lot of elasticity, and he's like a metronome when he trots - it's always the same tempo," she described. "He's a funny looking horse on the ground. When people see him he's long, he has a skinny neck and he's just a little bit weird looking. But in the ring he presents himself, I think, in a really good way."
The gelding also offers somewhat of a challenge to Roffman. "He is a little bit of a handful, so you have to take it all in stride. It's his first CDI ever, it's his first international Intermediaire I, and I hope this year he continues to develop and get confident in the ring," she said.
While the Adequan Global Dressage Festival brings out the best in the world to compete, Roffman prefers to focus solely on the horses. "I find myself keeping a little bit of a goal in mind, but they're horses," she remarked. "They have their own feelings, their own agendas. You can want anything, you can plan 100%, but if they're not ready or willing or able to do it? For me, I just focus on developing the horses, and that's how you know you're ready. (They) hopefully get better and better as the show goes on."
AGDF 1 Dressage CDI-W continues Saturday with the FEI Intermediaire I presented by Everglades Dressage and FEI Grand Prix Special presented by MTICA Farm. For full results and more information, please visit www.globaldressagefestival.com.

Chat with James Walker
Welcome to SportsNation! On Tuesday, ESPN.com AFC East blogger James Walker will stop by to chat about the NFL and what to expect from your team.
Walker joined ESPN.com in 2008 after three seasons covering the Cleveland Browns for the Columbus Dispatch.
Send your questions now and join Walker Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET!
More James Walker: AFC East blog | Chats | NFL index
James Walker (4:00 PM)
Hey everyone. Let's talk about the AFC East.
Bill (Connecticut)
Is there any chance the Bills take a quarterback somewhere in this draft?
James Walker (4:04 PM)
With seven rounds, there's always a chance to take a QB, Bill. The biggest question is what round? I don't see Buffalo taking a QB in the first two rounds. But anything after that is possible.
John Boy (FL)
If the Fins can't land a top prospect at qb this year, wouldn't it be wise to build the oline and defense and then next year stick Barkley into a ready made winner?
James Walker (4:07 PM)
I don't like the idea of tanking the season before it every begins, John. Barkley is going to be a top-five pick. So I'm assuming you think Miami has to win five games or fewer next year to get him. I don't see that happening regardless of who's the QB. The Dolphins will be competitive with Matt Moore, Matt Flynn or Peyton Manning.
Jay (New York, NY)
Dear Mr. Walker,Is there anything you have seen from Henne from his days in Miami that would lead you to believe that he would be a better QB on the Jets than Sanchez? Thanks.
James Walker (4:08 PM)
It's not about who's better, Jay. Henne knows Tony Sparano's system and was a favorite of his in Miami. I just think it makes sense to bring Henne in as the backup and let him push Mark Sanchez to be the best QB he can be. If Sanchez falters or gets injured, NY at least has a decent fallback option who is better than Mark Brunell.
tom (ny)
do the jets actually take barron in the first round? i highly doubt they pass up on a big time pass rusher.
James Walker (4:10 PM)
It's a bit early for draft predictions, Tom. That's something I usually stay away from. We have enough college and draft experts who do mock drafts and I leave that up to them. But identifying team needs is right down my alley, because I covered the teams all year. And safety is a huge need for the Jets. They really need two safeties, because Eric Smith is not a great starting safety. Jim Leonhard is hurt and a free agent.
Brian (Denver)
Are there any free agent offensive lineman that you could see the Jets making a move for?
James Walker (4:14 PM)
Don't throw tomatoes at me, Jets fans. But Tony Sparano has always been a Marc Colombo supporter. He liked Colombo in Dallas, brought him to Miami, and I wouldn't be shocked if Colombo joins Sparano's offense in New York now that Colombo is a free agent. Miami is not bringing him back. He had a poor year. But the Jets need someone to compete with Wayne Hunter at RT, because he struggled as well. What do Jets fans think of a Colombo/Hunter training camp battle at RT?
Josh (Pennsylvania )
I'm a huge 'phins fan and my question is do they have any shot at the playoffs like i hope this year with the Patriots slowly declining and the Jets being continually inconsistent?
James Walker (4:16 PM)
Getting to the Super Bowl counts as a slow decline for the Patriots? I'm sure a lot of teams would like that kind of decline. But the Dolphins right now are a sleeper. I wouldn't peg them as a title contender or anything like that until Miami figures out its QB situation. If the Dolphins get a healthy Payton Manning, then they are a legitimate threat. But until then, the Patriots are the favorites to win the division.
James Walker (4:17 PM)
The Jets are a wild card. There's talent, but I anticipate some roster cuts, and I still have questions about them bouncing back. The jury is still out.
Mike newyork [via mobile]
Do you see the patriots trading one of there 1st round picks to acquire steelers wr mike wallace?
James Walker (4:20 PM)
It should be a possibility if Wallace is available. But I'm still having a hard time imagining the Steelers letting Wallace go. I covered the Steelers for years in the AFC North, and I know how smart those guys in the front office are. This would be a really dumb move to let Wallace walk. So I'm going to wait and see if Pittsburgh actually does this. If so, the Patriots should absolutely give up a late-round pick. They won't find a player of that caliber at No. 31. New England also has the cap room to give Wallace a nice contract.
Xander (Philly)
Are the Bills going to carry over their excess salary cap from last year and use it this year?
James Walker (4:22 PM)
Buddy Nix plans to spend to the cap, Xander. This is an important year in Buffalo. If the Bills have another 6-10 or 4-12 year, everyone there is on the hot seat, including the coach, GM and QB. So the Bills have to use their resources to win now.
Robert (Pittsburgh)
Lots of aging WRs that could or have hit the free agency - (Ward, Wayne, Moss, even TO). Any of these guys have something left in the tank that can ebnefit an NFL team?
James Walker (4:25 PM)
Of all these players, I would take Reggie Wayne. I think he can still produce in the right offense and still has something left in the tank. Moss and T.O. are old receivers who have personality issues. Ward is a great guy and locker room leader. But I'm not sure he has much left.
Robert (Pittsburgh)
And all this Mike Wallace talk, where was he the second half of the season? He doesn't want to be a one trick pony, but he cant block, and cant route run too well, so..
James Walker (4:26 PM)
Wow. Now a Steeler fan is bashing Mike Wallace? Well, there's about 25 teams who could use a Mike Wallace. If your Pittsburgh team makes him available, watch how fast he gets scooped up.
firstname.lastname@example.com (NEW YORK)
James Walker (4:28 PM)
At the combine, Loudogs. I wrote about that today in the AFC East blog. Check it out.
Robert (Pittsburgh)
Does Henne find a new home, does anyone even want him? He might do well in a different scheme.
James Walker (4:30 PM)
Henne will find a home somewhere. I mentioned the Jets as a possibility, because NY needs a No. 2 and Henne had a good rapport with Tony Sparano. But if that doesn't happen, there will be other teams interested.
James Walker (4:32 PM)
Henne is a young QB with starting NFL experience. Someone will take him in, at least as a No. 2. I actually think Henne would be a very good backup somewhere. IMO, he's more of a guy who is better to fill in for two or three games and doesn't need the pressure of being a full-time starter.
Rick (Miami)
Who do you think is the better & long term solution at QB for the Dolphins Peyton Manning, Matt Flynn, RG3, or Ryan Tannehill ?
James Walker (4:34 PM)
You're asking a trick question, Rick. When it comes to a healthy Peyton Manning (and health is the key), I don't care about "long-term solution." You have a chance to go deep in the playoffs NOW and for the next three years. Who cares about who the Dolphins' QB will be in 2016? Worry about that then. If Peyton Manning isn't healthy or is out of the running, then you think about long term.
Would the Patriots trade us Aaron Hernandez for Osi Umenyiora?
James Walker (4:35 PM)
Craig (NY)
if richardson falls to 9-10-11 i think the jets will move up to get him. a perfect guy to complement greene. sporanos offense works off 2 rbs. mcknights not ready yet
James Walker (4:36 PM)
Trent would be great for the Jets, but I think they are too far back. I don't think Trent Richardson makes it out of the top 10. So, the Jets at No. 16 need to think about other players and positions.
Justin (Shippensburg)
Can the Patriots be considered Super Bowl favorites next year or do you see a decline in production?
James Walker (4:37 PM)
Look, it's early. But I don't see the Patriots going anywhere. Tom Brady will be healthy, Bill Belichick is still the coach, and the team has plenty of cap room and draft picks. What's not to like about their situation?
James Walker (4:38 PM)
This year's team had a lot of holes, particularly on defense. You have to assume several of those holes will be patched up, and on paper 2012 could be a deeper team.
Justin (Shippensburg)
Also, what are some key free agents you'd like to see each team sign in the division?
James Walker (4:40 PM)
I'm not saying this is going to happen, but I'd like to see Mario Williams in Buffalo, Brandon Lloyd in New England and Peyton Manning in Miami. The Jets don't really have enough cap space right now, so they're hard to match with a big name. But the chances of all of this happening at once are slim. But it would make the division exciting next season.
Dave (Charlotte)
Patriots vs. Giants in a Superbowl rematch, again. Mark it down, it's gonna happen!
James Walker (4:41 PM)
It's a little too early for that, isn't it?
Mike newyork [via mobile]
Back to the previous question i posted if wallace is available and gets picked up by another team such as the patriots would the steelers get any compensation in return?
James Walker (4:44 PM)
It depends on the tender, Mike. The Steelers are expected to put the highest tender (a first-round pick) on Wallace to prevent teams from taking him. But many teams, especially in the second half of the round, would be interested because giving up a 20-something or 30-something pick for Mike Wallace is a bargain. There are no Mike Wallace-type WRs sitting there at No. 31, where the Patriots are drafting.
James Walker (4:45 PM)
The tricky part is giving Wallace a big contract that the Steelers won't match. Pittsburgh is in a lot of salary-cap trouble, so giving Wallace a lot of money up front could make it tough for the Steelers to match. They might be forced to take the pick.
Al (Wausau, WI)
James, has LaDanian Tomlinson retired from football yet?
James Walker (4:46 PM)
LT has not retired. He said after the season he would consider coming back in the right situation. But that depends if the right team comes calling.
James Walker (4:47 PM)
The Jets are not expected to bring LT back.
Harry (Babylon, NY)
Hi James - After a season of internal turmoil does Rex Ryan's "player's coach" reputation still carry clout among potential free agents (besides the $$$ of course)?
James Walker (4:50 PM)
I do know this, players love playing for Rex Ryan. He is a players' coach to the fullest. Did that work against him last year? Probably to some degree. But that won't stop free agents from wanting to play for Rex. Even though the Giants won the Super Bowl, players would much rather play for Rex than Tom Coughlin. That's just the way the league is nowadays. But money is always going to be big in free agency.
Mikey (Lackawanna,NY)
Do you think the Bills will get a last minute deal done with Stevie Johnson?
James Walker (4:51 PM)
I've been saying all along that it's 50-50. Some Bills fans said I was crazy and that Johnson is definitely coming back. But from everything I'm hearing, it can go either way in these next few weeks. I think if the Bills let Johnson hit the open market on March 13, he's gone.
Tony (Buffalo)
In all honesty, what would it take to get mario williams in buffalo? the highest defensive contract ever?
James Walker (4:55 PM)
Buffalo is going to have to pay significantly more than any other team to convince Williams to come to Buffalo. That's just the reality. Because if all things are equal, the Bills are going to lose out to a winning program and/or a more desirable city. The Bills are certainly not the favorites here.
Dr. H. Doofenshmirtz (Tri-State Area)
Everyone keeps talking about Manning going to the Jets, but is it just talk (speculation)?
James Walker (4:57 PM)
Don't believe everything you hear, Dr. H. Peyton Manning is not coming to the Jets next season.
Dolfan (DC)
Flynn, Tannehill, how do you rank the two and best fit for dolphins?
James Walker (4:58 PM)
Joe (New York)
Chances Mark Sanchez is the Starter for the Jets next season?
James Walker (4:58 PM)
According to Mike Tannenbaum and Rex Ryan, 100 percent.
Bob (Massachusetts)
If the patriots were to try to get a deep threat wideout, who would it be ?
James Walker (4:59 PM)
Brandon Lloyd.

Say one of your employees stops by your office with a troubled look on her face. She has a complaint, but wants to speak with you "off the record."
Can you comply with her request for confidentiality? Should you?
It all depends on the content and context of the complaint. In certain cases, managers should—or must, by law—move certain information up the chain to human resources or other organization officials.
Mishandled confidential information can lead to lawsuits, hurt the morale of employees, damage their reputations in the workplace and threaten their jobs.
Action tips
First, never promise confidentiality. When an employee wants to reveal something confidential, set the ground rules by saying: "I can try to handle this privately, but if you tell me something that I have a duty to share with the appropriate people, then I must do so."
Harassment-related complaints must be acted upon and moved up the chain, regardless of an employee's wishes.
However, there may be times when an employee wants to discuss a co-worker's behavior, but does not want a full-blown investigation conducted. It is not necessarily unreasonable to honor the employee's wishes—up to a point.
If the behavior in question does not rise to the level of illegal harassment and it is reasonable to honor an employee's request for confidentiality, take these three steps to protect both the employee and the company.
1. Document the circumstances and the basis for your decision. Also, spell out that you advised the employee to disclose any future problems to you, another member of management or HR. Ask the employee to sign the documentation so you'll have evidence that you didn't simply brush aside the allegation, but were abiding by the employee's request.
2. Have a chat with the accused. Without naming names or revealing specific complaints, discuss appropriate and inappropriate workplace behavior.
3. Follow up with the employee in a timely manner to see if the behavior in question has stopped. If it has not, you must go to HR, regardless of the employee's confidentiality request.
Note: Use the wording in the case study below as a model for handling requests for confidential discussions.

Mark Shuttleworth Resigns as Canonical CEO
Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Ubuntu and CEO of Canonical has announced the transfer of his post to Canonical COO Jane Silber.
Shuttleworth intends to concentrate his energy on product design, partnerships, customer contact and relationship building. The current CEO reported in his blog that these are the areas he thrives most in. Furthermore, these are points where he can use his abilities and influence most effectively. Shuttleworth intends to transfer the reigns to Jane Silber, who has been a trusted colleague of his since the beginning (more or less), in the year 2004, at Canonical. Silber is the chief operating officer and also lead the Ubuntu One project. Due to her change of positions, the post of COO and leadership of Ubuntu One will be open and the new occupant will take on both duties.
Mark Shuttleworth considers his commitment to Ubuntu very high: "I am more committed now than I have ever been." His positions at the Ubuntu Community Council and in the Ubuntu Technical Board will not be affected by his change of position at Canonical. Shuttleworth and Silber answered questions in an interview regarding the switch.

The Alpine Challenge raises over £50,000 for Snow-Camp's work
Good efforts all round in the Portes du Soleil!
Looking over Morzine
After a fantastic weekend of endurance skiing, snowboarding and mountain hiking in the Portes du Soleil - 18 teams returned to the UK after competing in the 2013 Snow-Camp Alpine Challenge.
Conditions in Morzine were close to perfect for the event and teams made the most of the blue skies and perfect snow as they raced around the ski area to reach 15 checkpoints and racking up GPS-tracked kilometres.
Snow-Camp Director, Dan Charlish, said, "The event went even better than we had hoped. Teams loved the new orienteering format which put them in charge of their route and strategy - and the improved tracking facility kept everyone in touch with how they were doing and how far they had ridden. As ever, the mountain night hike added an extra level of endurance and is certainly a challenge after a big day of riding - but the experience of sledging home in the dark with 80 participants provided a suitable reward!"
Tom Saunders, of the DHO warriors said,"It was a fantastic event – we thoroughly enjoyed raising money for such a good cause doing something we all love! We will be going back to the DHO Race Club and getting more teams for next year!"
Over 80 people took part representing companies such as RBS, Norton Rose, PWC, Barclays Wealth, Miller Insurance, Welbeck and London Bridge Capital, as well as snowsport industry teams including SCUK and the World Snowboard Guide. Combined fundraising across all teams has now passed £50,000, which will support Snow-Camp's work with young people.
"The effort teams have put into their fundraising has been phenomenal. The 2013 Alpine Challenge has now set a new fundraising record for an event run for Snow-Camp. The impact this will have on our work is huge – we couldn't be more grateful for all the support from everyone involved", said Dan Charlish.
Sponsors Ellis Brigham Mountain Sports were proud to have supported the event once again and have been supporters of Snow-Camp for many years. They were joined by Morzine Tourist Board, Basecamp Group and White Blancmange Luxury Travel as key event sponsors.
The Alpine Challenge 2014 will be launched soon. To enter your team contact Snow-Camp or visit www.snow-camp.org.uk/alpinechallenge to find out more. Make sure you also keep an eye on Snow-Camp's website for other events including:
