Masterclass: Knowledge harvesting
Tom Young provides guidance on how to recognise, capture and retain the knowledge that can be used for business benefit, using the knowledge-harvesting process.
In almost all organisations, you will find a process of lessons capture from activity, operations, cases and projects. A process of knowledge harvesting (or knowledge retention) from individuals is far less common. This article will look at knowledge harvesting. While the comments in this paper will be directed at a general audience, particular reference will be made to knowledge harvesting within a legal environment.
I will avoid the cheap jokes about lawyers, but rather acknowledge that the legal environment is distinctive. Having said that, each business environment has its own unique characteristics, which have to be factored into the design of your knowledge-harvesting process. Manufacturing is different from sales, sales is different from construction. This is why you need to understand the context and business environment when designing a knowledge-harvesting process. Replicating the harvesting process from one industry or profession to another doesnt necessary work.
Some definitions are probably required at this point. I will use the terms knowledge and best practice, almost as interchangeable terms. My intention is to refer to the knowledge that the organisation can utilise for business benefit. To me, it doesnt really matter what terminology is used as long as we are relatively clear and aligned on what the desired outcome is. That is, an improvement in the level of performance of the activity that the organisation is currently undertaking, or a reduction in the risk of reduced performance if knowledge is lost.
That desired outcome might be to manage the risk of losing key knowledge in areas such as how to win clients, the cost or time to service a client, the time to research and create a brief and the degree to which you retain staff. Knowledge harvesting is a process to manage the risk of knowledge loss.
When considering knowledge harvesting it is vital let me repeat that, vital to focus on the key knowledge required to drive performance. Do not attempt to harvest all the knowledge and all the experience of your organisation. Attempting to harvest all the knowledge in each practice area would require enormous resources and would be of questionable value.
Lets move on to consider what knowledge your organisation needs to harvest.
What to harvest
Please dont waste valuable resources in trying to harvest everything. Focus on the knowledge that you cant afford to lose. An excellent way of ensuring that you focus on this key knowledge is to create a prioritisation matrix (Figure 1). This plots the organisations ability to replace the knowledge along the horizontal axis and the risk of knowledge loss on the vertical axis. Ability to replace means the ability of your organisation to replace that knowledge should be it lost due to it not having been harvested in the first place. For example, could you go out and buy the knowledge on the open market if required? Perhaps you could engage a research company to create the best practice for you, but at a cost both in terms of time and money. The risk of knowledge loss could be the thought of knowledge being lost due to staff leaving. Perhaps all of your critical knowledge of a particular area of law is in the head of a single lawyer, who is rapidly approaching retirement age?
The focus of your knowledge-harvesting work should be the top-left hand quadrant knowledge that is at high risk of loss, with a low ability to replace that knowledge should it be lost.
The other thing to consider is who will this knowledge be harvested from and what resources will be required to do that.
Who to harvest from?
If you have constructed a matrix similar to that shown in Figure 1, then youre going to be focused on the top left-hand corner, the areas in which we can see that there is a high risk of knowledge loss and you have a low level of ability to replace that knowledge; the box we have called knowledge-harvest intervention. An example of the matrix populated with the knowledge that is at risk might look like Figure 2. In this example, knowledge about water rights and the law as practised by indigenous people have been identified as being at risk. (Please remember that your diagram will be very specific to your practice and will change over time).
A valuable next step is to identify those individuals who are associated with that key knowledge and transcribe their names on to Figure 2, to produce Figure 3. In this example we can see that knowledge of water rights is associated with P Davis, and indigenous people law with R MacDonald. Perhaps they are due to retire in the very near future or they have indicated that they will be leaving the practice. Whatever the reason, it has now been identified that the practice is at risk of losing access to the knowledge that they possess about topics that the practice needs access to.
Who does the harvesting?
Having decided what knowledge needs to be harvested, you will need to consider who will do the harvesting. There are essentially two generic methods available self-harvesting and assisted harvesting.
For self-harvesting to work the person involved has to have the time and inclination to do the harvesting. If you are going to use self-harvesting it is beneficial to provide detailed guidance to the provider on what the recipients think they need and also the level of detail to be provided. If we assume for a moment, that the knowledge that you wish to harvest is in the head of a client-facing lawyer, the probability of them having the time to document what they know by themselves is almost non-existent. The pressure on todays lawyer to generate fee income for the organisation should not be underestimated. In todays legal practice, it is not unusual to find targets being set that each lawyer has to achieve or their future career path in the organisation may be surprisingly short. This is the reality for many. Given that environment, assuming that knowledge harvesting will just happen and will provide the benefits that the practice desires without a carefully thought-out strategy and implementation plan could be risky. If that is the situation you face in your organisation then an alternative tactic has to be employed.
Assisted harvesting is where someone interviews and documents the thoughts and insights from the person who has the knowledge. Before conducting the interview they would normally consult with the recipients of the knowledge to find out what they want to know, then use that to steer and shape the interview. This is an ideal role for someone in the internal knowledge management (KM) team. In some legal practices, the know-how partner would work with the in-house KM team to identify and populate the diagram shown in Figure 2. At global firm Baker & McKenzie, the know-how partners are fee-earning partners with an additional responsibility for overseeing the KM objectives and plans within its legal departments1. This is a role similar to the knowledge engineer or knowledge manager in other industries.
Some organisations are now using PSLs [professional support lawyers]. The key is for the PSLs to identify that knowledge the organisation needs to harvest and to work with the fee-earning, client-facing lawyers to harvest, package, and transfer that key learning so that it can be used to generate future fees.
How to harvest
Given that the PSL is normally an experienced and senior lawyer, they will have a background in and an understanding of the topic to be harvested. The knowledge-harvesting interview needs to be planned and well executed as you may have only one opportunity to do it before the person leaves the company. Start by asking the intended audience what they would ask if they were doing the interview. Compile this into a set of themes that you can provide to the interviewee in advance to enable them to prepare their thoughts, but also to collect any supporting documentation and other artefacts that they may wish to pass on. Avoid the temptation to provide them with detailed questions as this has a tendency to narrow down the conversation to answering these specific questions rather than allowing an exploration of the topic. It is also worth asking the interviewee what, in their opinion, are the key themes that you should cover during the interview. It is worth sharing this with the knowledge receivers just in case it sparks areas that they had forgotten to identify. When you are conducting the interview, try to avoid open-plan office areas or other rooms where the interviewee could be distracted. Take detailed notes and if possible record the conversation and have a transcript produced. Having a transcript to work from when packaging makes it a lot easier but remember that the transcript can easily run to 40 or more pages of type. Plan the interview around sessions of about an hour. Check against your list of themes to ensure that you are covering the areas that you need to cover as it is very easy for the interviewee to talk without necessarily covering the areas that you are interested. Also ensure that the interviewee is providing sufficient detail to enable someone to replicate and implement their advice. So for example if they say: Allow sufficient time, you should ask the follow up question: How much time is sufficient time, and when would you start the activity?. Always keep in mind that you might only get one opportunity to interview the person who has that knowledge so careful planning and using someone with experience in knowledge harvesting is essential. If your organisation currently doesnt have anyone skilled in knowledge harvesting, dont worry, it is a skill that can be taught.
Because of their experience and background, PSLs can be used in transferring the case studies to younger members of staff via in-house training courses and modules. The PSL updates procedures, case notes, precedent drafting, legal updates and newsletters with this learning but frequently goes a step further to closing the learning cycle and organises and conducts training seminars to ensure that younger staff or new starters have taken the new learning on board.
There is a tendency to focus on the front end or capture part of harvesting but this may lead to disappointment in the end. I often suggest to people that they start at the end and work back. Start with the person who is going to use this knowledge in mind, think about their normal way of working, the way they prefer communications to be received. If they are newly graduated then receiving things in written form or in web pages could well be the norm for them. However if they have been in practice for a number of years they may prefer to receive things in verbal briefings or in the form of case studies. Think through who your intended audience will be and determine in which way they would prefer to receive that material before generating it. Its a lot easier to tailor the capture process at the beginning to give you the desired format rather than capture material and then try to shape it into the format youre looking for.
While KM commonly refers to the packaged material as a knowledge asset, this may not be the best terminology in legal organisations. In a legal environment you may wish to refer to it as a legal update, newsletter, advice or precedent on a particular topic. Be sure to use the terminology that the end user is comfortable with and will recognise.
In terms of technology, again start from the point of view of the end user of this material. Do they need instant access to it no matter where they are? Can you assume that they will always be sitting at a desk inside their office? Are there any particular security aspects associated with the material? All of these questions will have a direct impact on how you make the material available to the individuals.
The other thing to consider is the degree to which you want them to be able to interact with the material. For example, do you want them to be able to annotate the document so that the know-how partner can update the original document? Wikis, for example, can be used to capture thoughts and comments. The choice of technology will be dependent on the degree to which you want people to be able to interact with the document.
Managing risk
Many organisations that do not have well-developed, fully embedded KM systems, often find that some of their crucial knowledge is at high risk of leaving the practice. In this situation knowledge harvesting is an excellent method of managing that risk. If this is your situation, then plan your harvesting campaign, determine who your focus is, what topics you need to harvest, and who will do it. Then develop the skills of knowledge interviewing and packaging. This may be the most valuable investment of time and resource that you make.

Danny's the boy for Rovers, says Singh
10:12am Tuesday 26th June 2012 in Blackburn Rovers & Premier League Table & Results By Andy Cryer , Blackburn Rovers reporter
DANNY Murphy will prove a "very important signing both on and off the field" for Blackburn Rovers, according to new global advisor Shebby Singh.
Rovers confirmed Murphy's two-year deal yesterday morning, with his Fulham contract expiring, as their Championship preparations finally began in earnest.
The 35-year-old midfielder has said the ambitions of owners Venky's and boss Steve Kean lured him to Ewood Park, despite significant Premier League interest.
Singh declined to comment on other transfer speculation, but the Lancashire Telegraph understand Newcastle United striker Leon Best is next on Rovers' radar.
A price in the region of £3million is already understood to have been agreed with the Magpies and Best is expected to hold talks with the club in the next couple of days.
Newcastle boss Alan Pardew is believed to have also given Rovers permission to speak to midfielder Dan Gosling about a potential loan deal.
Another player understood to be on Rovers' radar is Scottish international striker Steven Naismith, who now claims to be a free agent due to Rangers' financial problems.
Murphy turned down lucrative offers from Premier League sides QPR and West Ham United to complete his Rovers switch as owners Venky's look to prove their fierce critics wrong.
Singh said: "It is a good signing for the club. He is a player who will bring calm and composure to the midfield.
"Not only is he a good player, he is very, very good in organising the team. We have got a player with vast experience and who will help the players around him.
"He has the ability to improve players around him on the pitch. He will very important for the club both on and off the pitch."
The former England international midfielder has surprised many by opting to drop out of the Premier League, with a number of top flight clubs understood to be tracking him.
But, after talks with Rovers' supremo Singh and boss Kean on Friday, he insists he was in no doubt Ewood Park was the right place to move.
Murphy said: "I am absolutely delighted to be signing for Blackburn Rovers.
"When meeting Steve Kean I soon realised the passion, enthusiasm and ambition he has for the club and how much he wants the team to bounce straight back up to the Premier League.
"His desire to get me to the club was a huge factor in my decision to join. The owners were also very passionate about their desire to move Blackburn forward as a club and create a squad that is able to achieve promotion.
"I'm excited about my new challenge and can't wait to get started. Now, my new challenge is to help Blackburn get promoted and repay the manager's and the owners' faith in me."
Kean added: "Being able to bring Danny on board is a massive boost. He is a model professional, who has a real hunger to keep on playing football.
"This is a pivotal signing for us."

For further information on inclement weather conditions, please check your local TV or radio station, and the school and/or district website.

Late Start procedures will be implemented when there is clear evidence that if the start of the day is delayed approximately an hour and a half from normal, it will be safe to transport your child. On Late Start days elementary schools will begin at 10:30 a.m. and end at the normal time. Morning kindergarten will begin at 10:30 a.m. and end at 11:35 a.m. The start of the Early Childhood program will also be delayed by an hour and a half, beginning at 10:30 a.m. and ending at 11:35 a.m. The parental decision to send your early childhood student or kindergarten child to school is an individual one.
I am aware that many parents rely on the KEEP Program for childcare before school . Unfortunately, the KEEP Program will not be able to operate on days when there is severe weather in the morning. Many of the excellent people who work with your children have other commitments later in the morning. Regular food service will be provided on late start days. Late start will only be implemented when the school's schedule needs to be adjusted for safety reasons.
Early Dismissal Prior to Noon
There may be some occasions where it will be necessary to dismiss prior to noon. On these days, middle and high schools will be dismissed first. Elementary schools will be released about 45 minutes later. No afternoon kindergarten or Early Childhood bus routes will run when this procedure is implemented. Please be assured that no child will ever be sent to an unattended home.
Early Dismissal After Noon
There may be some occasions where it will be necessary to have early dismissal. On these days, middle and high schools will be dismissed first. Elementary schools will be released about 45 minutes later. No afternoon kindergarten or special education bus routes will run.

Mentor High grad's life changes after previously undetected brain tumor is removed
Tom Lawrence didn't insist that his adult son see a doctor until Tom Jr. slept for 48 hours straight during a winter vacation the two took in Florida.
After all his boy was over 30 and had completed a stint with the Marine Corps, including time in Iraq. He joined right after his 1998 graduation from Mentor High School.
"He looked great and was the picture of health at 6 foot 2 inches and 220 pounds," the senior Tom Lawrence said. "But when he woke up he wanted to go back to sleep again."
His only son had returned to Northeast Ohio to look for work after jobs in North Carolina ended. He had settled there after his Marine Corps discharge but came to live with his dad while seeking work.
"Tom always had some things that weren't quite up to par with others his age," the father recalled. "But after he started sleeping 48 hours at a time and had terrible headaches and nausea I insisted he see my doctor."
The doctor said that Tom Jr. probably needed an MRI, so Tom went to the Louis Stokes Veterans Administration Medical Center at Wade Park for the magnetic resonance imaging,
"VA immediately sent Tom by ambulance over to University Hospital," Tom, Sr. said.
The imaging had found a tumor on the front of Tom's brain and surgery was set for January 2011. The tumor, doctors said, had begun growing aggressively.
The previous fall and winter the senior Lawrence had sensed something was wrong.
"Tom had bad headaches, was sleeping more and more, he wasn't speaking much and he had a faraway look in his eyes," he recalled. "I'd ask him something easy, like if he wanted toast, and he'd take 3 or 4 seconds to answer." Continued...
The father recalled something similar when Tom was 10 or 11.
"I remember telling him I'd fire off questions and he should give an answer as quickly as he could," he said.
His son couldn't do that, but except for a Little League coach who had observed that Tom was "different," none of young Tom's teachers seemed to notice a problem. So the senior Lawrence concluded his son was perhaps a little slow.
"I'd been the same way for so long that I just accepted it as the norm," Tom Jr. recalled. "It was just the way I was, so I adapted to it."
His father had reconnected with his Catholic faith and went to St. John Vianney pastor Rev. Thomas Johns, a cancer survivor, or counseling.
"I'd been pretty active the past 15 years with the middle age singles scene, so I asked them to pray for Tom and his surgery," the senior Lawrence said. "Then I tapped into my North High graduating class and discovered a lot of people were still around 40 years later. So I asked for prayer support from my Class of '66 classmates."
By the time Tom's surgery took place, Tom Lawrence Sr. had an estimated 500 people praying for his son.
"I sent an email telling people my goal was to fill that operating room with so much positive energy there would be no chance of failure," he said.
Dr. Lisa Rogers, medical director of neuro-oncology for both University Hospitals and its Seidman Cancer Center, said there's no way of knowing how long Tom had the brain tumor.
"But progressively worsening symptoms are always a concern," she said. "After the surgery Tom was dramatically improved, both in terms of his headaches and cognitive functioning." Continued...
Noticing his own improvement, Tom Jr. enrolled at Lakeland Community College while he was still undergoing the chemotherapy and radiation treatments that followed his surgery.
"Last fall I took economics and world geography and got a B in both classes," he said. "This spring I took intro to business and IT classes and did just as well."
He's currently enrolled in summer classes, which, he said, condense 16 weeks of information into five weeks.
Rogers said she's seen huge strides made in the technology used for treating brain tumors during her own 30 years of practice.
"I am astounded at how much better Tom is," she said. "But it's way too early to say he's made a full recovery. I hope the tumor stays away but the prognosis as of now is still uncertain."
But both father and son are celebrating.
Hospital personnel and all those asked to pray for his son have received Tom Sr.'s invitations to a dance and pizza party he's organized for Friday at American Legion Hall, 570 E. 328th St.. in Willowick.
"I haven't gotten the response I'd hope for, so now I'm throwing it open to anyone who wants to join us in celebrating this victory," Tom Sr. said. "It's our way of saying thanks."
The party, which will include music and a DJ, is from 7:30 to 11:30 p.m. He asks those who plan to come to call him at 440-364-7518 or email email@example.com.

I go to school near Providence so definitely trying to hit up a game when Albany plays there. Especially if theres a lockoutWas in Albany this weekend for Giants camp. Times Union Center was empty but still walked up and checked it out. Pretty cool arena in the middle of downtown. It was almost like half open with the way it is set up. Really want to go check out a game there this year now.

The evaluation camp ended but it sounds like Matteau and Pietila made decent impressions. Hopefully all 3 start off the year strong and get invited back for the pre-WJC camp.Anything new on Matteau, Boucher and Pietila??
Not much was known or expected from Pietila as a 5th round pick in 2011 but after a very solid freshman season at Michigan Tech: 39 GP 10-14-24 -3 46 PIM (t-4th on team in pts) and reading about Peters and others praising his defensive and skating abilities, it looks like he has a real shot to be a pro player down the road.THE WAY-TOO-SOON PROJECTED ROSTER (THAT IS SURE TO BE WRONG)
Gaudreau – Galchenyuk – Miller
Lucia – Kuraly – Noesen
Kerdiles – Trocheck – Biggs
Pietila – Fogarty – Hartman
On the bubble: Bardreau, Boyd
13th Forward — This is the position you have the most freedom with if you're Team USA. You can find out where you're deficient in your top four line and see if there's a guy you can get that won't play as much, but gives you that added versatility. Sometimes this goes to a guy with that extra bit of toughness the team lacks. Sometimes it's to a power-play or PK specialist. It really can go any way they want. I put Stefan Matteau in there because I think he did enough in camp to show he belongs on the team, but maybe not enough to earn a regular role.
Blake Pietila — It would be unfair to point out all of the guys who put up a bunch of points in camp and not talk about the much needed defensive play. As far as forwards go, I thought Pietila was a standout in the defensive department. The Junior team probably needs a guy like him in Ufa. He has enough speed to match up with top offensive units, and the grit to make life tough on them. He's a pretty strong individual and relentless in puck pursuit. Kind of makes sense why the Devils drafted him then.
Reid Boucher could be in the mix at that position despite a bit of a lackluster camp. His natural goal-scoring ability wasn't really showcased in Lake Placid, but he has a track record of coming up huge in big games. He should remain in the mix for a spot.

How low a league is the BCHL?
Edited by Triumph, 22 September 2012 - 12:42 PM.

Posted 22 September 2012 - 01:51 PM
Does the BCHL produce a lot of NHLers? Or do guys in the BCHL generally use that as a springboard towards the Dub or NCAA (ie Zajac)It's the league below major junior. Travis Zajac played there and crushed it with 187 points in 132 games. It's a high offense league, Kerfoot had 69 points in 52 games last season.
Thanks for the update fiesty, was checking out some of the scores last night, wondered why Thomson didn't play. FYI, Scarlett tweeted later that he is 'fine' and there's nothing major wrong.

"Sadly disappointed"
From the curt valet who wouldn't take our luggage or car until we had fully checked in - to the suite with a rooftop instead of a balcony, we were extremely disappointed in our entire stay at Marina Inn at Grande Dunes. While the room itself was nicely furnished, and for the most part clean, we struggled to find adequate towels, kitchen appliances that […] worked, and maid service who arrived before 5pm (except of course on the day we checked out when they knocked on the door at 9am). The "bathrobes" were more like dish rags with sleeves, and the do not provide slippers anymore. The pool area is very small and most of the lounges are taken first thing in the morning. The hotel staff was not very friendly and made you feel "small". I was never quite sure what high rollers they seemed to be waiting for? For the price, we had expected something much better. Our advice is to save your money and stay at a Hampton Inn instead. We will never return. Les merVirkelige gjesteanmeldelser
"Will stay with them again"
The hotel was very nice. The room was big. Staff is very polite, friendly and helpful. The front desk helped us with all our bookings and found us very good discounts. The exercise room and indoor pool were 24hr which I loved. Stayed out late can still use them. The only thing I wasn't so happy about was housekeeping. The shampoo, bath gel and etc weren't […] replenished properly both nights. The tile floor was not cleaned. The sticky spots were there all thru out. Les merVirkelige gjesteanmeldelser

We have stayed all over the world. Marina Inn ranks as one of our top 3 favorite resorts/hotels. Extremely clean, up-to-date high-end furnishings in the rooms and the rest of the facility.

I'm from the area- but booked a room at the Marina Inn for a romantic New Year's Eve getaway. The room was fantastic - I found a good deal for one of the Mediterranean Club Suites. The room was huge - had a full kitchen, roomy bathroom with a tub and separate shower, and a living room with a fire place as well as an outside sitting area. The kitchen […] came with all cooking utensils so was very convenient. The hotel gets only a 4 for quality of service because we arrived about an hour after check in is advertised to begin and had to wait an additional 30 minutes to get into our room. However, we couldn't get the fireplace to work and someone came to fix it immediately. As for convenience of location - it was perfect for us because we didn't want to go anywhere, but if you are visiting Myrtle Beach you can't really walk to anything and it's a 5 minute drive to the beach and about 10 minutes to other popular tourist destinations. I would stay again! Les merVirkelige gjesteanmeldelser

We got there and they told us they upgraded our room into a two bedroom grande suite! The size of our room was bigger than most people's apartment! It was a very wonderful stay and our room was spectacular. It rained the whole weekend but I was still 100% happy just staying in our wonderful hotel room.

Roomy, clean and comfortable. Perfect for the family that is tired of resorts that are over run by hordes of pre-adolescents.

"Great Place to stay in the off-season"
This is a great place to stay anytime of the year but due to costs, easier on the budget to stay in the off-season since the weather in SC is great all year round.

CMYK corner at Rossana Orlandi
During Salone del mobile in Milan I had two new lights. The RGB galaxy and the CMYK corner. This last lamp is derived from the CMYK lamp. Who was first exhibited during graduation show 2011 of the Design Academy Eindhoven. For the CMYK corner I wanted to use as less material possible. I really had a urge to make it as tiny as possible with the same effect as the CMYK lamp.
For me it resulted in a better piece. The light became brighter . It's a small light creature that can easily be hanged in tiny spots of your house.
It's a Rapid prototyped lamp. I took the lamp in own production because with this technique I can make a wide variety of lamps.

A word that can replace any word and be used in any context. Created in Kenmore, WA, the word "wangin" began spreading to other high schools and parts of the country. Experts predict that the word "wangin" will become a worldwide phenomenon in the next coming months. Variations of the word include "wang" and "wangster". Any hater of the word "wangin" is immediately frowned upon and shunned. "May the wang be with you"
"Wanna wang this weekend?" "You are so wangin" "What's up wangster?" "We are going to have a wangin race" |

Physical Traits: Red bellies have a rosy tummy, thus their name. They have white and black barred stripes on their back, much like a zebra. The nape and crown of the male is red, while only the nape of the female is red.
Habitat: They nest and raise their young in a hole of a dead tree. They are commonly in pairs foraging for insects. They will come to a feeder and eat sunflower seed, nuts, and fruits.
Recommended Feeder: Lyric Woodpecker Feeder
Feeder Tips: Selectively limit your feeding site for optimal pleasure by offering the food in a Lyric Woodpecker Feeder. This cedar feeder is uniquely designed so that only the woodpeckers' long bills and tongues can get the bits of food. We suggest smearing some suet or peanut butter on the cedar and in the holes to attract the bird and help it identify the food source. Hanging the feeder from a tree branch or close to a tree trunk is optimal. Conversely, if you'd like to offer the mix to all birds, a hopper feeder works nicely. We also recommend wire mesh tubes, but because most of the ingredients are shelled, protect them from direct exposure to the elements. Squirrel baffles are always recommended.
States and Regions Found: Primarily in the eastern United States and southeastern Canada.

United Airlines has been one of the last major airlines to jump into the business of offering on-board wireless Internet. But it's trying to make up for its tardiness.
The Chicago-based carrier offers Wi-Fi in about 3% of its fleet of about 700 planes, one of the lowest rates of any major carrier in the nation, according to a recent study.
But United recently became the first U.S.-based international carrier to offer satellite-based Wi-Fi Internet for passengers traveling on long-haul overseas flights.
The carrier has installed satellite-based Wi-Fi on nearly a dozen planes, with plans to expand the service to more than 300, or about 43% of the fleet, by the end of the year.
"With this new service, we continue to build the airline that customers want to fly," said Jim Compton, vice chairman and chief revenue officer at United.
Satellite-based Wi-Fi is typically as fast as ground-based Wi-Fi, experts say, plus it can give passengers Internet access when flying over areas where cellular towers don't exist -- such as the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.
Of course, there is a price to pay for the service.
United is charging between $3.99 and $14.99 for standard speed, depending on the duration of the flight, and between $5.99 and $19.99 for faster speeds.
United is not the only airline to offer satellite-based Wi-Fi. Southwest Airlines, the nation's largest domestic carrier, offers satellite-based Internet through Westlake Village company Row 44.

"A woman's natural beauty can be illuminated by the right piece of jewelry," says designer Jacquie Aiche, who sees jewelry as a personal, wearable art that can bring out different aspects of a woman's personality. Her own whimsical disposition and her uncommon upbringing are reflected in her jewelry: her Egyptian father and Native American mother inspired her to rework ancient designs in turquoise, fossils, and minerals. The result? Stunning, handcrafted pieces that make the wearer feel utterly unique.

Exactly what I was looking for..
This ring is so delicate and beautiful, and is exactly what I was looking for in a slave-chain ring! The quality is great and the yellow gold color is very classy. However, the bottom bigger ring is larger than what it's supposed to be..I ordered a size 7 because I fit a size 7 on my middle and index fingers..but it turned out to be more like a size 8. The smaller ring is really tiny but luckily is adjustable (you can pull it apart to make it wider) so that makes it easier to fit the fingers.
All in all, very happy with this purchase and loving it a lot!

text: DistractionsPOSTED: 19 August 2011 Distractions Some small clubs don't have enough players that could perform well both in league and cup matches. Especially in the Champions League where nerves play a huge factor in every match. Injuries play even a bigger in football that obviously bring down teams' performance. Let's talk about Rosenborg for an example. Before they began the Champions League, they only lost once in 8 games. When they played in UEFA and in the domestic league, they lost 3 of their last 4 local matches including a Norway Cup match. Now you can see the contrasts. Distractions In their next match, Rosenborg will visit Haugesund who have won their last 3 games. I know Rosenborg is a stronger team but I don't think they can grab a victory at this point. My pick: Haugesund win |

text: Zeke Jones is on a mission.The United States National Freestyle Coach is determined to close the gap on perennial powerhouse Russia on the World freestyle scene.One of the ways he hopes to do that is by providing the best training opportunities in the U.S. for his team.The next opportunity will come over the next week.Jones said 35 of the top wrestlers in the country will take part in a USA Wrestling National Team Training Camp on Dec. 10-15 at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Okla.2009 World silver medalist Jake Herbert and World bronze medalist Tervel Dlagnev are among the top Americans scheduled to participate in the camp."One of our goals in strengthening the American wrestling program is supporting our regional sites to see them grow in the Olympic movement," Jones said. "It's a great opportunity to leverage the resources that they have there at Oklahoma State. It gives us a chance to work with some of the best coaches in the World and a chance to work with some great up-and-coming athletes down there. Having that synergy with Oklahoma State and the National Team gives us a different look, and a different way to train and get better."A majority of the National Team members are expected to take part in the camp. 2009 World Team members Dustin Schlatter and Jake Varner will not be there since they are in the midst of their senior seasons in college.Oklahoma State coach John Smith and OSU assistant coach Eric Guerrero were heavily involved with USA Wrestling this past season."I think having the camp here is really a great idea," Smith said. "Not just because it's here, but it gives our top guys another site to train at and it's a nice change of pace for them. Training in a different setting is always good. I'm excited and Oklahoma State is excited about having this camp here."Smith, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and four-time World champion, was one of the U.S. coaches at the 2009 World Championships in Herning, Denmark. Smith's Oklahoma State teams have won five NCAA team titles.Guerrero coached the U.S. team at the 2009 Junior World Championships."John Smith is a difference-maker," Jones said. "We obviously know the long list of accomplishments he's had in the sport of wrestling. John hasn't been involved in our program in years. I haven't seen him this excited since we wrestled on World and Olympic teams together. The guys are real excited about working with John this week."Eric Guerrero coached our Junior World Team to a top-three finish this year. He will be very important this week to getting our team ready."The U.S. is hoping to build on its two-medal performance from the 2009 Worlds."We have a great leader in Zeke Jones," Smith said. "The biggest reason I'm back involved with the freestyle program is because of Zeke. The attitude seems to be where it needs to be again to have success. We have some individuals who are eager to learn and who are really committed to this program. That's what we want."Our guys competed hard at the World Championships, but we made some mistakes we need to learn from. We need to build on that performance and keep working to improve."Jones also said the college wrestlers from Oklahoma State are permitted to train with the international athletes in the camp. Junior World bronze medalist Jordan Oliver is among the wrestlers on the OSU roster.The camp in Stillwater also will provide preparation for U.S. World Cup Wrestle-Offs, set for Jan. 23 in Colorado Springs. Herbert and Dlagnev have secured spots on the World Cup team by virtue of winning World medals in 2009. Wrestle-offs will be held for spots in the other five weight classes.The World Cup will be held in early March in Russia."We will hold National Team Training Camps around the U.S. to help our program," Jones said. "We have a lot of great resources and people out there who can help us."Smith said he hopes camps like this one can unify the U.S. in freestyle."We need to all join together and work together as a country, and it needs to take place now," Smith said. "We need guys like Tom Brands and Terry Brands and Kevin Jackson and Kenny Monday to be a part of this. Guys like that all need to be involved in rebuilding this freestyle program."
