"We've had a few changes," said Nadia Rajsz, as she opened the April 7 meeting of the Upper Delaware Council (UDC). Rajsz, who is the UDC vice chair, was referring to the vacancy created in the position of chairman that resulted when the Damascus Township supervisors abruptly removed Dolores Keesler from her post as the township's UDC representative at their meeting on March 21.
The reason given for Keesler's termination was stated at that meeting by supervisor Joe Canfield, who charged that "she doesn't represent the whole township."
Some at the UDC meeting disagreed, with praise coming from other representatives on the council. Since the UDC had not received formal notification of the township's decision, it was requested that a letter confirming that action be submitted. Damascus Township alternate Jeff Dexter said he would look into the matter. Dexter added that the township has not yet determined who their new representative will be.
During public comment, several came to Keesler's defense. Damascus Township resident Bernard Handler praised Keesler's leadership, noting that she fairly represented the terms of the River Management Plan (RMP).
"I feel that her dismissal was fallacious," he said. "The fact that the majority of parcels of land have not been leased would mean that maybe she was representing a good portion of the township." Referring to the results of a poll conducted by Damascus Citizens for Sustainability last year, Handler added, "I request that whomever they place not be a representative of the third of the people who are pro-leasing. The 67% of the people who have not leased their properties also need representation."
The matter was advanced with the nominating committee's recommendation of Town of Cochecton representative Larry Richardson to the post. The UDC will vote on the nomination at its next meeting on May 4.
Council members then discussed a letter, which addresses Damascus Township's proposed zoning ordinance amendment pertaining to oil and gas wells and pads. The letter states that the RMP, drafted in 1986, did not envision high-volume slick-water hydraulic fracturing and that due to the scale of development, it should be considered a "heavy industrial use," which would be incompatible within the river corridor.
It continues, "We are concerned about the property rights of individuals living within the Upper Delaware River Wild and Scenic Corridor. There is a difficult quandary that natural gas drilling and exploration poses to the region: how to protect the rights of individuals who choose to contract for the extraction of natural gas, while at the same time protecting the rights of those who choose not to extract gas from their property."
The letter also recommends a minimum setback from the River District of 500 feet or greater. Dexter objected to that specification, adding that the township has been told it cannot establish a minimum standard. "If we put in 500 feet, we could end up in court," he said.
Town of Highland representative Andrew Boyar responded, "We haven't even sent the letter yet. Why don't we send it so we can get a written response on this?" The letter was approved as drafted.
Town of Tusten representative Tony Ritter noted that the NYC Department of Environmental Protection has announced what it terms a "landmark framework agreement" between the decree parties on management of the Delaware River Basin. The agreement provides a framework for a new interim flow program that allows for the release of more water from the city's reservoirs to help fisheries and provides for voids in the reservoirs to enhance flood protection. Town of Deerpark representative Phil Chase commented, "It's the biggest victory we've ever had for the river and I'm glad the UDC had a hand in it."
But while acknowledging some progress has been made, the council approved a letter to the Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC) on water flow management, prepared by the Water Resources Committee, favoring still stronger measures contained in a white paper by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission and the New York Department of Environmental Conservation. The letter also argues for the inclusion of a "habitat bank" of water to be used for unforeseen circumstances and a set of minimum targets on the upper rivers. The decree party agreement is only scheduled to last one year, so it is not too early to urge such additional changes.
Two other letters from the council were also approved. The first addresses a proposed cell tower on Henderson Road in Mileses, NY; the second applauds the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission's Draft Delaware River Management Plan. The letters are available for review at the UDC office.
It was noted that the deadline for the extended public comment
period for the DRBC's Draft Natural Gas Development Regulations is April 15. Comments must be received by 5 p.m. Visit www.state.nj.us/drbc/notice_naturalgas-draftregs.htm [1] for more information.
The UDC meets monthly on the first Thursday at 7:30 p.m. at its office at 211 Bridge Street in Narrowsburg. All meetings are open to the public. Visit www.upperdelawarecouncil.org [2] or call 845/252-3022.

The Cut Is in the Mail
It's Nixon's fault.
I speak of the financial woes of the U.S. Postal Service, and the news last week that its hopes to cut Saturday mail delivery to save a few billion dollars a year.
As it goes, President Nixon, tired of strikes by then-government postal workers, signed the Postal Reorganization Act into law in 1971. It established the Postal Service as a quasi-private organization required to pay its own bills with revenue it earns selling stamps.
To the Postal Service's credit, it has not, for the most part, needed taxpayer money to fund its operations. Taxpayer money, says PBS, "is only used in some cases to pay for mailing voter materials to disabled and overseas Americans."
But thanks to technology, the postal business isn't as lucrative as it used to be. Few people write and mail letters anymore. I used to spend three hours each months writing checks to pay my bills and dropping 15 or so payments in the mail – now I do online checking in about three minutes and the funds are transferred electronically, free of charge.
Annual USPS revenue, which peaked in 2008 at $75 billion, is down to $65 billion and will continue to decline as fewer people use the mail. Our struggling economy also is doing the Postal Service no favors.
Compounding USPS woes is a congressional mandate from 2006. It requires the Postal Service, through 2016, to make an annual pre-payment of $5.5 billion into a fund to cover health-care costs for future retired employees.
Unlike Medicare, Social Security or any other government organization, the Postal Service is required to put money into a real "lock box" to fund future liabilities – rather than let future taxpayers worry about covering the costs.
The $5.5 billion pre-payment, however, only accounts for about a third of the Postal Service's $15.9 billion in losses in fiscal 2012. No matter how you look at it, the Postal Service is bleeding red ink by the tanker load.
That doesn't bode well for the 550,000 people employed by the Postal Service – America's third largest employer, in fact, behind the federal government and Wal-Mart. And I feel sorry for these folks.
It's not their fault the Postal Service is unable to adapt to modern times – unable to find ways to sell new products and services to post offices' nearly 1 billion annual visitors.
Most postal employees are crushed under the weight of outmoded business processes and bureaucratic inanities. They lack the organizational support to serve customers as well as they would like. They are unable to help their employer grow and thrive.
But here is the real problem postal workers face: Because the Postal Service is technically an independent entity, the federal government won't extend it billions in printed money to cover its budget shortfalls – as our government does with every other government organization.
If only the Postal Service were still a full government organization, it wouldn't have a worry in the world – for the moment, anyhow.
Consider: Our government's annual deficit has been in the $1 trillion range for five years running. What's another $15.9 billion? All we'd have to do is print another $15.9 billion to cover the Postal Service's shortfall.
Actually, we'd only have to print another $10.4 billion. Because if the Postal Service were fully a government organization, nobody in Congress would make it put aside $5.5 billion a year to fund the needs of future retirees.
There's a lot of finger-pointing going on to explain the Postal Service's budget woes. I say blame it all on Nixon.

August 6, 2013 —
Monticello police arrested four persons at Number Four Greenview avenue in the Village of Monticello on August 8.
Arrested were Patrick Boughal, 36, Robert Sereda, 20, Alisha Purdy, 32, and Christine Carpenter, 24, all of Monticello. All of the defendants were charged with misdemeanor criminal possession of a controlled substance in the 7th degree and criminally possessing a hypodermic instrument. Boughal was additionally charged with misdemeanor criminal possession of a weapon in the 4th degree.
At 9:20 a.m. Monticello police escorted officers from the Sullivan county probation department on a home visit of Robert Sereda. Sereda is currently on probation in Sullivan County and was staying with Boughal at #4 Greenview Avenue. Immediately upon entering the residence officers observed in plain view numerous hypodermic syringes and used envelopes containing heroin residue.
All the defendants were then taken into custody. Further investigation resulted in officers recovering dozens of used hypodermic syringes, various drug paraphernalia, heroin, anabolic steroids and a 12-gauge Mossberg shotgun. Boughal was charged with weapons possession because he has a prior felony drug conviction from 4/16/2007 in Sullivan county court and is barred from possessing any firearms.
Purdy and Carpenter were released on appearance tickets to appear in the village of Monticello justice court. Boughal and Sereda were arraigned before village of Monticello justice Josephine Finn. Boughal was remanded on $7,500 bail and Sereda on $5,000 bail to the Sullivan county jail pending further court action. Sereda is also facing additional charges from the Sullivan county Probation Department for violation of probation.

Clovis Fire Department firefighters extinguished small fires Friday at a Clovis school and residence that caused no injuries, according to officials.
An electrical fire about 11 a.m. at Marshall Junior High School caused by a malfunctioning stove was put out with a fire extinguisher, according to Clovis Fire Department Public Information Officer Karen Burns.
"The panel on the stove that controlled the heat was smoking," Burns said.
No flames were actually observed, and damage was limited to the cafeteria stove, Burns said.
Firefighters remained at Marshall for about an hour, Burns said.
"Lunch was served on time due to the swift response of the Clovis Fire Department," Marshall Principal Diana Russell said via e-mail.
The fire department also extinguished a fire at a trailer home at 932 Gammon St. caused by a wood-burning stove, Burns said.
Burns advised residents to follow manufacturer's recommendations when using wood-burning stoves, making sure no paper or flammable materials are near stoves, chimneys are clean and stoves are installed properly.

BLM Seeks Public Comment on ATV Event in Eastern Utah
Moab, Utah—The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Utah Canyon Country District Office invites the public to review and comment on an Environmental Assessment (EA) analyzing the potential impacts of issuing a one-year Special Recreation Permit (SRP) for an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) Safari in San Juan County.
The EA analyzes a proposal by the City of Monticello, Utah, to host and conduct guided ATV tours on 15 designated routes in areas throughout the Moab and Monticello Field Offices. No cross-country travel would be allowed and the proposed event routes are already designated in the travel management plans for the Moab and Monticello Field Offices. Four routes are located in the Moab Field Office, and 11 routes are located in the Monticello Field Office. The event would provide guided tours for ATVs, Utility Task Vehicles and motorcycles over a three-day period in September. Guides would provide orientation sessions on safety, trail terrain, riding tips, and the Tread Lightly Leave No Trace program.
The EA is available for public review and comment on the Environmental Notification Bulletin Board (ENBB) at:
https://www.blm.gov/ut/enbb/index.php; search for project name "ATV Safari."
Written comments will be accepted by letter or email until September 9, 2013.

The World Series, Red Sox offseason?
Really, once again, you've gotta tip your cap to the Rays. We got beat, we just got beat, it's as simple as that, and it's not the end of the world. Really, with all our injuries, it's pretty amazing that we even forced a game 7. Everyone was overworked, so I think a week of consistent sleep is a good remedy. The ALCS MVP ended up going to Matt Garza, appropriate I suppose since he only gave up, what, two hits? I totally thought BJ Upton would've gotten it, after all, he's just been some kind of monster with home runs lately.

|When is a Perk NOT a Perk?
The dust is beginning to settle. I have my Podcast done, and may be only working on three hours sleep... but I still have the ability to grasp the fundamental shift the Alpha Client is about to instigate. This isn't about less is more. This is SIMPLER writ large, and for someone who's never really felt comfortable with losing anything in game, there are some real kicks to the soft issue in what we've been given here. People are already chastising me for not looking at the bigger picture, reminding me the sky is NOT falling. I know this. Change is inevitable, we've all been on that page for some time. But when you get down to the nitty gritty, the actual details, I find myself wondering if all those people who asked for ability bloat to be addressed really thought through the consequences of their desire. When your tower is so delicately balanced, you can't just take things away without some fairly serious consequences. That means lots of things vanish. Many, MANY things.
Ultimately, everyone misses out on something. Except Rogues [*]
|Visual representation for the win.
So if you consider the Jenga Tower of Class Abilities, to keep this whole thing resplendent and stable means those with the most utility are pretty likely to come out of the exercise a lot worse off than the classes who have less. It's also apparent that by the process of better distinguishing specs from each other, it has been necessary to restrict access to a lot of spells that were previously universal for all, locking them together in new (and often radical) ways. While this is all well and good people will look at these notes and without something to reassure them (i.e. the ability to actually play their class right now) will rightly feel slightly nervous. That's the risk Blizzard have clearly decided to take by letting this information out now. There will be those who will argue the timing is deliberate for whatever reason, but the fact remains that with the scale of change were being presented with, the longer people have to adapt to their circumstances the better it is for everyone concerned.
This means the sooner people have their hands on the Client the better.
There is one particular issue I would like to take issue with, however, and that's nothing to do with the actual changes and a bit more of an objection to a term.
|That's what Google sez :D
So these 'Perks' we get from 1-99 for our Specs: I assume they are offered every level and are the same for everyone. So, they're not a benefit because that implies that only some people get them and others don't. If EVERYONE gets them in every spec and they only change when you switch Specialisations, giving them a name is ultimately pointless. This is making people *think* they're being rewarded something when all Blizzard are doing is improving everyone's power IN EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, because they're not going to imbalance ANYONE by giving them a Perk over anyone else. Please don't try and fool me into thinking this is something cool and clever, Blizzard, that each level awards anything else other than a HIGHER RANKED SPELL I ALREADY HAVE, that is the same for EVERYONE who plays my Spec. This is Alpha, just drop the name and stop making people feel they're being made more powerful when really they're just getting more of what they already have.
If you are going to strip this down, then do just that. Rewards aren't really rewards if everyone has them.
Until I'm playing the game to which these Patch Notes are attached, pretty much anything else I'd want to discuss is utterly moot, and therefore pointless, which makes me rather pleased I'm not writing Class Guides today, because if I was, I could see myself getting quite emotional.
However, I cannot now complain there is no actual Warlords News, which suits me just fine.
Rogues got off really rather lightly :P

Wind development measure passes HouseBy Kirk Carapezza
Vermont Public Radio | April 27,2013
Wind turbines generate power at the Searsburg Wind Power Facility in Searsburg, Vt. Thursday, July 21, 2005. Two ridge lines in the southern Green Mountain National Forest soon could sprout 370-foot tall wind power generators, if the U.S. Forest Service approves what would be the first wind energy project on its lands anywhere in the country. A company called Deerfield Wind LLC has proposed up to 30 of the towers in a special-use application to the Forest Service. The review is expected to take up to 18 months. (AP Photo/Tim Roske)The Vermont House on Friday overwhelmingly passed a bill that was originally proposed as a moratorium on ridgeline wind development in Vermont.
Over the past two months, though, the bill was reduced to a study of how the state approves renewable energy projects.
The House voted 140-3 to approve the Senate bill.
Rep. Tony Klein, D-East Montpelier, chairman of the House Natural Resources and Energy Committee, has emerged as a lightning rod for opponents hoping to strike down wind projects. On Friday he rose to passionately acknowledge that the beleaguered bill has taken a circuitous route to the House floor.
A product of the 1960s, he quoted the Grateful Dead.
What a long, strange trip this has been, said Klein, whose committee found that the kind of research called for in the Senate bill would be nearly impossible and too expensive to conduct.
Some of the tasks that were sent to us in the Senate bill was on research that, quite frankly, hasnt been done anywhere yet, Klein told his colleagues, pointing to real estate values that may or may not be affected by energy-generation plants as one example.
To really get some sort of baseline of understanding, youve got to go to a community where a project has been built and remember that weve only had recently two projects built in the last few years and youve got to wait and see what happens to the real estate values there, Klein said.
He emphasized that his committee learned it would take four to six years to get reliable real estate information time, he said, lawmakers cant afford to take in developing energy policies.
There is an energy problem in this country, Klein added. There is an energy problem in this world, and we cant go on, business as usual and not pay attention to it.
Proponents in the House and Senate had hoped the bill would give greater local control to town and regional planning committees in reviewing renewable energy projects.
Rep. Don Turner, R-Milton, the minority leader, said his constituents who live near Georgia Mountain still hope for a more cautious, balanced approach to ridgeline wind development.
This week the wind turbines on the mountain didnt turn at all, Turner reported. We need to understand that.
Turner added, Georgia Mountain, which was this pristine mountain, now has a cut right up through the middle with four big turbines sticking out of it. Some say beautiful, some dont.
Turner and other House lawmakers said they are confident that the bill recognizes some of the flaws in Vermonts renewable energy policies.

Örebro Castle
Photo: © Örebrokompaniet AB
Always a castle of the times.
Unlike other Vasa castles dotted around Sweden, Örebro Castle has, almost without exception, been re-profiled to suit the times and undergone many facelifts, a bit like a castle 'complete makeover' before the television age.
Örebro Castle stands in the centre of this modern town, surrounded by a moat. A defence tower was built here in the 13th century and remained pretty much intact until the Renaissance came along and a new castle was built in 1560. Little remains of the previous versions of the castle, but then again this has always been a castle that reflects the times, politics, styles and fashion of the time in which it stands. Through the ages Örebro Castle has been used - no surprises here - as a prison, a military compound, a royal castle in the 14th and 15th centuries and the Swedish parliament was even convened a few times in days gone by.
There are guided tours, an exhibition centre and this is a very worthwhile sightseeing destination.

No easy answers to Syria situation
I have been paying very close attention to the Syrian conflict. I have been talking to people. I have been debating with the people I bounce things off of. I feel I am about to shoot myself in the foot, so to speak.
First, I am not for war. I have said nothing about Syria because I hadn't decided yet. I was torn.
On one hand I do not think that the USA should be the police in the world. I have decided to say what I believe and if it angers people so be it. In my mind that opens up debate and anyone is allowed to have an opinion and they do not have to agree with what I am about to say.
I think that the USA must strike. I came to this conclusion after thinking back to Hitler. I do not believe that we can let the use of chemical weapons stand. Watching the hearings I found myself thinking that we can not stand by. Something must be done.
I think that in the end Congress will give the authorization. I commend the President for asking Congress to vote on this. He did not have to under the War Powers Act.
I will also say I do have questions and I hope that they will be answered. What happens if it gets worse as I am sure it will? I would hope that the president would come back to Congress before sending in troops. I do not see a way out.
On the other hand I do not see how we can stand by and do nothing, seeing as how we are proud to be a superpower in the world. This goes back to World War I and World War II. I agree that, yes, Barack Obama drew a red line. I would say that the world and our own Congress did as well. Over 130 nations signed and agreed that the use of chemical weapons is a war crime. Our own Congress signed a Syrian resolution saying the same thing.
I hope that we will be able to come to an agreement with Assad with the aid of Russia. I am skeptical about this due to the fact that Russia is already blocking in the UN. I watched the president's address and I think there is a strong possibility that we will be involved in a strike. All eyes are on America now.
President Barack Obama says that the military is to stay in its current position and will respond if an agreement isn't reached. I have learned in studying politics that there are meanings in every word a president says. Read into that one as you will but what I am hearing is that Assad is going to do what he says or we are going to hit him.
I wondered to myself if the entire drum beat from the start up to taking it to Congress was a way for the administration to pressure Assad and Russia into trying to reach an agreement. Just an idea.
If my idea is true, does that mean that if an agreement does not happen we are hitting them without the president calling on Congress to vote? Will we wake up to hear that we have carried out a limited strike? Do we really trust Russia (who is already blocking things in the UN)? Do we trust Assad? Is this a plan to be able to say that the administration tried diplomacy but we had to hit them because they didn't comply?
It is an interesting situation. A big game of chess, so to speak. One that all Americans should be paying attention to. Any time our military may be committed in any way every American should pay very close attention.
You should also contact your representatives with your opinions. These are serious issues and we speak through the people's representatives.

It soon will be under threat.
At its next session this October, the U.S. Supreme Court will address the constitutionality of starting a governmental meeting with a prayer.
How it rules will affect entities ranging from the U.S. House and Senate down to the local Commissioners Court, the City Council, four school districts and a water board, just to name a few.
Anticipating the oral arguments before the high court, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott has filed an amicus (friend of the court) brief with 22 other states arguing to ban invocations is "improper and contrary to the long-standing history and tradition of legislative prayer in the country."
The case originates in Greece, New York, where a federal appeals court ruled in favor of two atheists and struck down the town's practice of allowing citizens to offer a prayer at monthly meetings of the town board.
Abbott, who announced July 14 he is running for governor, says his brief argues that "Public acknowledgments of God at official functions have been customary since the nation's founding."
The brief cites a 1983 high court ruling, March v Chambers, in which it upheld the constitutionality of a Nebraska legislature's practice of opening every session with a clergy-led prayer.
"Such prayers," the ruling stated, "are simply a tolerable acknowledgment of beliefs widely held among the people of this country."
That the high court already has issued a ruling has prompted Abbott, in his brief, to ask the Supreme Court judges to "adopt a single Establishment Clause test that is clear, workable and faithful to the text and history of the First Amendment."
In that amendment, the Constitution prohibits the government from making any law "respecting an establishment of religion," hence the clause's name.
The Legal Information Institute, based at the Cornell Law School in Ithaca, N.Y., notes that "it is not clear just how much the Establishment Clause tolerates."
In the past, it says, the Supreme Court has "permitted religious invocations to open legislative session, government funding of busing and textbooks for private religious schools, and efforts by school districts to arrange schedules to accommodate students' extracurricular religious education programs. The Court has ruled against some overtly religious displays at courthouses, state funding supplementing teacher salaries at religious schools, and some overly religious holiday decorations on public land."
The Jeffersonian wall of separation between church and state is a "shifting, porous barrier," says University of Missouri Law Professor Douglas Linder. "Small factual differences in cases often produce different outcomes."
The First Amendment Center, a team of five legal experts at Vanderbilt University, stresses that "the clause is absolute. It allows no laws. It is also noteworthy that the clause forbids more than the establishment of religion by the government. It forbids even laws respecting an establishment of religion."
It predicts, however, "for the foreseeable future a majority of justices will continue to view government neutrality toward religion as the guiding principle."
"Prayer at government meetings, even where conducted with sensitivity to diversity, is controversial," says Baptist Joint Committee General Counsel K. Hollyn Hollman.
"While most religious people believe prayer is an important spiritual practice, that doesn't mean they are united in how they pray or a willingness to have government-sponsored prayer."
The committee, she says, thinks a moment of silence is "a better way to solemnize a government meeting. There are countless opportunities to pray for our elected officials and recognize the diversity of religions in any given community without conducting prayer in a governmental forum and risking the alignment of government with a particular religion."
The BJC is a watchdog agency concerned with separation of church and state issues and policy.
"It would be a sad day if the court rules against the invocations because it goes against the very nature of the foundation of our country," says County Judge David Silva, also a Baptist minister.
Beeville Mayor David Carabajal agrees.
"Prayer is essential in all walks of life," he says. "I believe that God can help us through some of these difficult decisions and keep us balanced."
BISD Board Chair Nick Cardenas says that history is on their side.
"As long as I have been on the board, we have been praying. We have to put God first. I don't care if it's the board meeting or at an athletic function or what. People are moving away from God too much, and this is what is causing a lot of the problems in the world."
His counterpart at Coastal Bend College, Paul Jaure, views the provincial environment of a South Texas college as no longer a defense. "I know there's been a lot of controversy about it, but you always expect that to happen there, not here."
He predicts the Supreme Court will "leave it up to the individual institutions to do what they feel is correct."
When asked what he would do if the court banned invocations, Silva said he would comply.
Carabajal says he will continue to start City Council meetings with prayer, regardless of what the high court decides. "You see it in our currency, 'In God We Trust.' To rule against it is not considering our rights."
"Personally, I would want to defy it," Silva said. "But again, I represent the county. I would have to uphold the law. We are a nation of laws."

i'm not saying they should go undefeated over the next month, but three all star candidates are still in the lineup. jr, melo, and tyson. we may not be lights out, but we shouldn't be losing to teams like the blazers at the home.
That is assuming there is not setbacks with Shump Felton or Amare's return.
As we know and the Lakers are finding out right now, just getting players back on the court does not equate to success in fact it leads to underachievement most times.
We need all 3 of these players to compete but the fact that the 3 of them have never played together collectively and they are expected to be big contributors for us we are gonna have to give it time.
This means.....
No Fire Woody threads should be created (yet there will be some)
No "We should have traded Shump for..." or "we should trade Shump for.. threads (yet there will be)
It's gonna take time, we won't be terrible (we still have the talent to beat the lottery and low playoff seed teams on a regular basis) but we are gonna look unorthodox and clumsy for the next few weeks
Short Sighted analyst will say our struggles attribute to us not being that good to begin with....that's a lie! Our team is really good
It's gonna take time to gel...and Woody is a good enough coach to get it to work...he's also a smartest enough coach not to force them all in there together which is why it will take longer....a lesser coach would throw them all in there together and we then would start losing to those lottery teams and less talented playoff squads and the moral will be affected
If Shump is back Thursday and Raymond the following then it will be 3 weeks before they are both playing like themselves...then they will then have to gel together.
Point is....lets prepare for a rough stretch and know there is a huge light at the end of the tunnel.
"I'd Rather Melo shoot with 3 men on him than Jefferies shotting wide open"
-Jeff Van Gundy
i'm not saying they should go undefeated over the next month, but three all star candidates are still in the lineup. jr, melo, and tyson. we may not be lights out, but we shouldn't be losing to teams like the blazers at the home.
Well said.
How about 3 hall of famers + an outstanding all-star center in Howard? How did that work for the lakers?but three all star candidates are still in the lineup. jr, melo, and tyson
Chemistry for a team is an important key to the team's success, so yeah.. it needs time.
My Knicks are awesome, and this shall be the year of ultimate greatness
Amare is done. Shump probably never gets back to 100%. Felton was never good. Trade the lot if you find a sucker.
We'll be back.
Our situation is similar to 2011 Mavs.
They had good start of the season, injuries, main star injury, fall down in January - losing games against scrubs. Waiting for sophmore back in February, who didn't play since begin of the season. They wanted to make trade before ASG, but Cuban did nothing, didn't mess in team. Chemistry was just better and better, and they surprised all in play offs.
We can do it too, but Melo has to grow up and be at god level clutch as Dirk in 2011 PO, if we want to win title.
I absolutely agree with this thread .. coach Woody has a lot of overtime to put in during Jan. Feb. and March.
Grunwald decision-making before the February trade deadline will have the biggest effect to our Knicks .. our "Old-Heads" know this is a bussiness, and may not feel comfortable untill after the trading-deadline has past. Will Grunwald make trades this season for the 2013-14 season?
Collectively we are not a gellin chemistry team on offense, and our most minute played players when in a lineup may be the poorest team-defensive lineup in the NBA.
We still dont have a transition-format, and we look clueless on a 3 on 1 fastbreak.
The return of Shump is a mystery .. Shump brings all kinds of Energy when put in the backcourt with a running-passin PG like Jeremy Lin, to speedup the pace and tempo of the game.
Felton & JR are a quick turnover when passin off their dribble, which wont help Shump scorin in transition to receive above 18 minutes a game .. Shump is not a peremeter shooter, or a great decision-maker in a halfcourt-offense.
Coach Woody been working every player in our main "three-player lineup of Tyson/Melo/and JR" this season .. starting with Felton & Brewer, then Felton & Novak, now Kidd, Camby, and Amare.
Wallace Camby Thomas will be needed in April and playoffs
last april games will be pause for lot qualifieds teams and they will be played mostly reserves.
but Knicks march calendar can be nightmare for older players.
I agree with the OP. The team is still gelling and the injuries are just making it take longer than expected. Im not really concern with the losses we took so far because there were some good lessons to be learned in each of them. For the most part, they played hard and with a sense of urgency. In those losses... Ive yet to see anything that cant be corrected with more playing time and rest for our injured players. By the time the post season rolls around this team (players) should be very familiar with each other, knowing each other tendencies can make the world of difference. I just hope we go into the playoff healthy. If the Knicks manage to be healthy by seasons end they should be ready to ball out and become the next champions. They are built for the playoffs, built to win now. Im not sure if they will get another (or better) opportunity than they have with this current team, Im thinking they know this too.
I almost cant wait to see how much better this team will be playing later on in the season. As of now, we are still a work in progress, with team and coach making adjustments to better their chances. I can clearly see this happening and I cant help but to be supportive and optimistic about the Knicks in the near future.
Every team practice the hardest when preparing for the Miaimi Heat.
Playoff teams are saving their energy for matchups vs other playoff teams in Jan/Feb/March.
Beating Miami twice .. only made us "The team to beat." So keep lookin forward to all our oponents to keep comin at us hard at the tip-off of a game .. coach Woody & J.Kidd has to do overtime to keep us winnin ....
warning: it looks like Stat had no hops in N.O. game
Roseless Bulls also have no probs with Heat but they have been downed by Bucks twice..................
few upcoming games each other Knicks Nets Hawks Nets Celtics Nets
we will drop to 3rd temporaily IF Indiana and Bulls will be winning their games
But when Knicks will b back from europe already 3 games Nets Celtics and 76ers
and then 4 marathon @home
After our London game vs (the practice) Pistons we should be well rested physically, while fightin a helluva 3 day Jet-Lag before meeting Brooklyn .. our 2 PG's are a 35 old rookie, and a 39 old NBA coach who we will lean hard on throughout the month of January .. we have to win 75% of our games vs minus -500 record teams in Jan./Feb. plus we face four teams with above .500 record in Jan., and they are "must win games" to set the teams high-standard going into the month of Feb. where the return of our 3rd PG slashin-Felton should be in the rotation Feb. 4th vs (the practicing) Pistons .. giving-us the trio-direction at the point again .. our 3 fresh-leg PG in the rotation gave us a edge. A edge we must maintain to keep a win streak throughout the month of February, to keep Dolan oops, I mean Grunwald off the phone in February lol
I expect this team to continue winning games. No drop off! When you have a coach like Woody who commands respect from his players, you can count on getting good production on most nights. Amare appears to be getting better (offensively) every game and Felton will be back at the end of next week. Shump will fit in just fine. They have a lot of practice time in the next 10 days.

The NHL extended a new offer to the players on Tuesday that includes a 50-50 split of hockey revenues and a plan to play the entire 82-game schedule.
The proposal was announced during meetings in Toronto by commissioner Gary Bettman.
"We hope we've given our best shot," Bettman said.
Donald Fehr, executive director of the NHL Players' Association, said the league's offer includes a contract agreement for at least six years.
"Gary indicated to me and I assume he indicated to (reporters) that they would like to get a full 82-game season in," Fehr said. "We, of course, share that view and would like to get a full 82-game season in."
The players' union plans a conference call Tuesday afternoon to discuss the proposal, but a formal response isn't expected by the end of the day, ESPNNewYork.com reported.
"What our hope is that after we review this that there will be a feeling on the players' side that this is a proposal from which we can negotiate and try to reach a conclusion," Fehr said. "But we are not in a position to make any comments about it beyond that at this point."
The league is pushing to end the lockout, which began Sept. 15, with a deal that would allow a full season to get under way on Nov. 2. Regular-season games originally were to start Oct. 11.
"We very much want to preserve a full 82-game season and in that light we made a proposal, an offer really," Bettman said. "It is our best shot at preserving an 82-game regular season and the playoffs.
"We're focused on getting the season started on Nov. 2. That's what this offer was about."
Bettman said the league is not seeking salary rollbacks for the players. ESPN.com reported that the NHL's proposal is designed to protect players from salary reductions.

As almost any causal bystander could have predicted, Oracle and Google couldn't come to terms after a Pollyanna magistrate judge ordered them to try to settle their differences over Java and Android one more time last week ahead of a jury trial starting April 16.
It's just a good thing there have been no reports of Oracle co-president Safra Katz picking her teeth with the bones of Android chief Andy Rubin, both of whom were told to show up for the negotiations and presumably did.
The judge sent out word Monday that "Despite their diligent efforts and those of their able counsel, the parties have reached an irreconcilable impasse in their settlement discussions" and that "no further conferences shall be convened."
He wished them luck and said this was an example of a case that just needed to go to trial.
Oracle's case has been largely reduced to claims of trademark infringement after its patent claims were whittled down.
Google offered Oracle a pittance for patent infringement last week should the two remaining patents prove valid.
Court-ordered and mediated negotiations failed last year too.

In this strange new world where more and more power is drawn from business technology, companies are effectively straddling two paths on the road to innovation and transformation into digital enterprises. The first path is the heritage trail – with "legacy" technology forming the background. Here, extant technologies are transformed by core IT teams to provide more API-driven approaches. Legacy systems can restrict companies that are transitioning into digital enterprises. To truly become a lead...

"Once customers get a year into their IoT deployments, they start to realize that they may have been shortsighted in the ways they built out their deployment and the key thing I see a lot of people looking at is - how can I take equipment data, pull it back in an IoT solution and show it in a dashboard," stated Dave McCarthy, Director of Products at Bsquare Corporation, in this SYS-CON.tv interview at @ThingsExpo, held November 1-3, 2016, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA.

What happens when the different parts of a vehicle become smarter than the vehicle itself? As we move toward the era of smart everything, hundreds of entities in a vehicle that communicate with each other, the vehicle and external systems create a need for identity orchestration so that all entities work as a conglomerate. Much like an orchestra without a conductor, without the ability to secure, control, and connect the link between a vehicle's head unit, devices, and systems and to manage the ...

The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to simplify and streamline our lives by automating routine tasks that distract us from our goals. This promise is based on the ubiquitous deployment of smart, connected devices that link everything from industrial control systems to automobiles to refrigerators. Unfortunately, comparatively few of the devices currently deployed have been developed with an eye toward security, and as the DDoS attacks of late October 2016 have demonstrated, this oversight can ...

Over 35 searchers and two dog teams are currently involved in the search. Search efforts Friday are focused on Spruce Canyon, Navajo Canyon and Wickiup Canyon, according to a news release from the park.
National Park Service personnel are being assisted by Dog SAR Colorado. NPS personnel were assisted earlier in the week by Montezuma and La Plata County SAR teams, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe and the San Juan National Forest Hot Shots.
Temperatures in the park are expected to be in the 80s Friday. The terrain consists of steep canyons and mesa tops at an elevation between 6,500 and 8,000 feet.
Stehling was last seen wearing a brown shirt and hat, khaki shorts and hiking boots. He was not carrying any water or other gear.

NASCAR in need of some drama
"Banjo's, Where money buys you speed – How fast do you want to go?"
– Sign in the late Banjo Matthews shop.
Banjo Matthews was a NASCAR driver in the late fifties and into the early sixties, who became a mechanic and owner. Along with the likes of Smokey Yunick, he owned his own shop. Not like the clinical looking NASCAR shops today but garages where you could have work done, whether it was the day driver or your hot rod for racing out on Airport Road at night for 'Pinks.'
The NASCAR rule book reads the way it does today because of mechanics and racers like Yunick, Matthews, Junior Johnson and a host of others who reveled in the gray area of the older rule books.
Recently, Chad Knaus has been a quiet exponent of creative engineering, but with him, it's kind of like finding out that your accountant keeps a secret blue pen in his drawer. Wow.
Each year NASCAR wonders what has happened to its ratings and where attendance is going to. To solve the attendance problem, in part, they are removing seats.
Not exactly a cheat, since many of the tracks over built. But as to the viewing public, as Richard Dawson of Family Feud would start: "Survey says" Old time fans are going away, not just via the mortician, and new ones are not always staying.
Why? Because NASCAR has all the drama of a Progressive ad.
One of my favorite 'old time' stories concerns Dave Pearson at Darlington.
Richard Petty's take was this: "You'd be out here at Darlington with 50 laps to go. It's 95 degrees outside and you're just dying, and then David would go blowing by you and he's driving with one hand and lighting a cigarette with the other. You knew you were in trouble then, but it was kind of cool, too."
Corporate dollars have become an uneven double edged sword. Sure, we see the benefits of the money bringing quality and parity to the sport. But along with this we have seen the bleaching of passion away from the racing.
As a former holder of Patriots season tickets, there was no greater marker of trouble for a player than to see Bill Parcells pulling off his head phones after a play. Woe betides the player when there is only one hundred yards of sideline to hide on.
Yet at NASCAR races when they show the owner, no matter what is going on, they make the sphinx look like it's in a hip hop video. Whatever damage has been done, from Kyle Busch's smash mouth of Ron Hornaday into the wall with clear intent at 140 MPH to last year's cheatathon by Michael Waltrip Racing at Richmond, no one is visibly mad, overly upset or pulling off their head phones.
They retreat to haulers and trailers and have media personnel write nice 'how do you do's' about it that reads like so much legal puke and then move on.
Mike Helton's "Have it, boys" should be extended to the owners. How about seeing Rick Hendricks and Gene Haas storming down the pit lane to give Waltrip a fast ride off the top of a high pit box at Richmond? As to Waltrip's own driver, Martin Truex, eliminated from the chase by this Himalayan size stunt, I would have parked on the start-finish line and torched the car.
At every race there is a lot on the line. Everyone from owners, racers, crew chiefs and the guy who sweeps the garage all have emotions that make them work crazy, stupid hours every week from February to November. NASCAR needs to stop trying to put those emotions in lockers before the race.
"Have at it boys" should rule the whole garage, and when audiences return and ad rates climb, the corporate sponsors can act like they invented the concept of real drama.

Palestinians take part in a rally marking the 48th anniversary of the founding of the Fatah movement, in Gaza City, on January 4. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians joined a rare rally staged by President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah group in Gaza on Friday, as tensions ease with rival Hamas.
Updated at 8:40 a.m. ET: TEL AVIV, Israel — Officials with rival factions Hamas and Fatah will this weekend seek a reconciliation deal that would potentially give Palestinians a stronger position in future peace negotiations with Israel.
The talks are meant to help bury years of differences that have damaged Palestinian efforts to create a separate state. Discussions began Friday and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, of Fatah, and Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal were due to meet Sunday.
Salah Bardaweel, a senior official with Hamas — which controls the Gaza Strip, said the negotiations between Meshaal and Abbas would cover the creation of a new government headed by Abbas.
"Reconciliation is a national necessity and all are working on achieving it," he said.
Fatah and Hamas have starkly different visions of what a future Palestinian state would consist of.
Fatah controls the Palestinian Authority, which represents the Palestinian cause internationally, and is pursuing a negotiated solution with Israel with the eventual establishment of a separate state alongside Israel. Islamist Hamas, branded a terror group by the United States and other governments, does not recognize Israel as a legitimate state.
Alaa Badarneh / EPA
Palestinians participate in a Hamas rally as part of celebrations marking the 25th anniversary of the Islamist movement's founding in the West Bank city of Qalqilya on December 15.
A recent announcement that President Barack Obama was planning to visit Israel and the West Bank this spring raised the prospect of a new U.S. push to restart the long-stalled Israel-Palestinian peace efforts. Success is far from certain — Israel and the Palestinians remain deeply at odds on how to restart talks that broke down more than two years ago.
Israeli-Palestinian talks foundered in 2010 and Israeli then sped up housing construction in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem — land the Palestinians claim for a future state.
Bernard Sabella, a member of the Palestinian parliament, said reconciliation between Hamas and Fatah would give "the Palestinian people the chance to practice its national right in electing their president, legislative council and so on."
Ahmad Assaf, a Fatah spokesperson, said a transitional government would operate for three to six months until elections were held.
"The transitional government's role is to prepare for the elections and to unify the Palestinian institutions," he said. "In Fatah, we are determined on achieving the reconciliation through elections."
While Hamas and Fatah said that they were determined to reach a reconciliation deal, signs persisted of ongoing troubles between the two sides.
Palestinian security forces had arrested more than 25 members of Hamas over two days, Agence France Presse news service cited an unnamed security source as saying on Friday. According to him, explosives were found in the possession of some of those detained in the area of Ramalah in the West Bank.
And on Thursday, Hamas accused the Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority of escalating an arrest campaign against its supporters in the West Bank.
Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip area, said in a press release that eight activists had been detained in the previous two days in Ramallah and Nablus districts.
A recent report by the Palestinian Independent Commission for Human Rights (ICHR ) said that human rights violations have been continuing in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
The report said the ICHR last month received 31 complaints about torture and mistreatment and 24 alleging unwarranted arrests.
UN panel's report: Israel must withdraw all settlers from West Bank
