Since picking an all-time starting five of players who played their high school ball in North Carolina might be difficult, Fayetteville Observer staff writer Stephen Schramm has chosen teams based on the state’s six area codes.

  • The Maturation of Russell Westbrook
    The Maturation of Russell Westbrook Khris Matthews-Marion Contributing Writer, Sports Radio America “I think Russell’s demeanor and his aggression is what the DNA of a team should be. He’s aggressive and he’s unapologetic about the way he plays. “I believe Russell has the same mentality that I have had, which is that criticism doesn’t matter.” -- Kobe Bryant on Russell Westbrook’s development. Oklahoma City – When he was drafted fourth overall by the Seattle Supersonics in the 2008 NBA draft, analysts struggled to come up with a player comparison for him. Marc Jackson compared him to Gary Payton and because of his rebounding ability; the media tabbed Rajon Rondo as the best example of what he could turn into. Still, others thought he was built in the Steve Francis mold. However, it may be the Black Mamba, in terms of intensity and eye- popping athletic ability, who may be the closest and best equivalent when looking at the future of Russell Westbrook. Kobe Bryant is arguably the greatest player the NBA has seen in the last thirty years not named Michael Jordan. He has been the heartbeat of LA's most historic team for almost two decades and has hoisted the Larry O'Brien trophy five separate times. His comments during ESPN Grantland's Basketball Hour were revealing about the level of respect he has for a man who is walking down a similar path. His experience, success, basketball acumen and specifically his relationship with Shaquille O'Neal made him a perfect candidate to judge the maturation of man who is escaping the shadow of an established star.

  • When the Buying Stops, the Killing Can, Too Reducing Demand for Elephant Ivory in China
    When the buying stops, the killing can, too Reducing Demand for Elephant Ivory in China Program Update - January 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In April 2013, WildAid launched a three-year campaign to reduce elephant ivory demand in China. Using existing methodology, networks and contacts tested and proven on our shark fin campaign, WildAid aims to raise awareness in China of the elephant poaching crisis, support Chinese lawmakers in banning ivory sales, and measurably reduce demand for ivory in China. In the campaign’s second year, we built on our first year accomplishments and expanded our partnerships. We produced and released new TV PSAs, featuring actors Edward Norton, Li Bingbing, Huang Haibo, and NBA basketball stars Pau Gasol, Tyson Chandler, Al Horford, Serge Ibaka, Thabo Sefolosha, and Joakim Noah. We continued to build campaign momentum with the August CCTV broadcast of our documentary, “The End of the Wild”, in conjunction with an outdoor ad campaign featuring Yao Ming in China. We followed this release with a global premiere of the English version of the film, “Saving Africa’s Giants” on Animal Planet in November. We also collaborated with Oscar- winning director Kathryn Bigelow on a 3-minute animated short film, “Last Days”, dramatizing the connection between the ivory trade and the Al-Shabaab terrorist group’s attack on Nairobi’s Westgate mall. We have seen several governments around the world begin to take action, sending the message of a stronger stance against the illegal ivory trade by incinerating or crushing their ivory stockpiles. More recently, we have heard from internal sources that the Chinese government has adopted an unwritten policy forbidding any government official from accepting any ivory as gifts.
