Sheridan, Noblesville, Cicero, Arcadia, Tonight: Increasing chances of showers and storms by late evening. Atlanta, Carmel, Fishers, Westfield LIKE & FOllOW US! HIGH: 88 LOW: 72 Federal Hill Commons event parking request The REPORTER The City of Noblesville and Nobles- ville Main Street are asking patrons to be mindful of where they park when at- tending events at Federal Hill Commons. Since the park’s grand opening on May 13, officials have noticed that nearby pri- vate parking lots are being used instead of larger public lots. “We want to encourage people to use the Riverview Health overflow lot direct- ly across from Federal Hill Commons so normal business operations can contin- ue in the private parking lots around the park. A police officer is stationed at the intersection of Conner Street and Indiana 19 to assist pedestrians in crossing,” said Noblesville Parks Director Brandon Ben- nett. “We appreciate our neighbors being understanding, but we want to make sure we are not intruding on their businesses during events because there is plenty of parking opportunities in public spaces.” To ensure patrons have the opportu- nity to park and shop at those businesses, “No Event Parking” signs will be placed at the entrances to the private parking lot north of Logan Street (which includes Kroger) starting today. “Demand for the Farmers Market has steadily increased each of the last three years. Seeing attendance at an all-time high, we’ve been monitoring traffic with staff from Noblesville Parks and the No- blesville Police Department,” said Chris Owens, chief executive officer of No- blesville Main Street.

  • Renormalizing Individual Performance Metrics for Cultural Heritage Management of Sports Records
    Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records Alexander M. Petersen1 and Orion Penner2 1Management of Complex Systems Department, Ernest and Julio Gallo Management Program, School of Engineering, University of California, Merced, CA 95343 2Chair of Innovation and Intellectual Property Policy, College of Management of Technology, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland. (Dated: April 21, 2020) Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs and modern training regimens). Such historical comparison is more than fodder for casual discussion among sports fans, as it is also an issue of critical importance to the multi- billion dollar professional sport industry and the institutions (e.g. Hall of Fame) charged with preserving sports history and the legacy of outstanding players and achievements. To address this cultural heritage management issue, we report an objective statistical method for renormalizing career achievement metrics, one that is par- ticularly tailored for common seasonal performance metrics, which are often aggregated into summary career metrics – despite the fact that many player careers span different eras. Remarkably, we find that the method applied to comprehensive Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association player data preserves the overall functional form of the distribution of career achievement, both at the season and career level. As such, subsequent re-ranking of the top-50 all-time records in MLB and the NBA using renormalized metrics indicates reordering at the local rank level, as opposed to bulk reordering by era.

  • Zelmo Beaty Entering
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 4/5/16 CONTACT: Garin Narain, Jon Steinberg or Jason Roose, Hawks Media Relations (404) 878-3800 FORMER ST. LOUIS/ATLANTA HAWKS STAR ZELMO BEATY TO BE ENSHRINED INTO NAISMITH MEMORIAL BASKETBALL HALL OF FAME ATLANTA, GA — Former St. Louis and Atlanta Hawks center Zelmo Beaty was named yesterday as one of 10 members of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame class of 2016. Elected via the Veteran’s Committee, Beaty will be posthumously honored September 8-10, 2016 during this year’s Enshrinement festivities in Springfield, MA. Nicknamed “Big Z,” Beaty was a Hawk from 1962-69 (including two All-Star appearances), and in his seven seasons with the organization, averaged 17.4 points, 11.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 34.2 minutes. He also played for the Utah Stars of the ABA (where he won a championship and Playoffs MVP in 1971) and the LA Lakers. He was drafted third overall by St. Louis in 1962. As a college star at Prairie View A&M, Beaty led the Panthers to the 1962 NAIA National Championship, while earning the MVP Award. He was named to the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame in 2014. Beaty died on August 27, 2013. STATEMENT FROM THE ATLANTA HAWKS BASKETBALL CLUB “Zelmo Beaty was known as one of the toughest and most talented competitors of his time, and his recognition by the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame is well-deserved. He was a star with the Hawks for several years in both St. Louis and Atlanta, and made significant contributions as a union player representative in the NBA and as President of the ABA Players Association.
