More information about this work at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/gj_etds/241 Discover additional works at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu This work is made publicly available by the City University of New York (CUNY). Contact: [email protected] Luke Kornet remembers watching the 2017 NBA Draft at his home. As names were called and picks were finalized on that June evening, he knew that he wouldn’t be drafted. Then he was called by his agent. Kornet’s agent, Jim Tanner, called him with many offers but none presented the same elements as the two-way contract that the Knicks offered him. As they mulled offers the two “went through all the possible options,” said Kornet, a former Vanderbilt standout who in 2017 set the NCAA record for three-pointers made by a 7-footer. “The two-way really seemed like a good option of staying in the states and making a solid income and also staying in front of a team and hopefully end up being called up in the year.” What is a Two-Way? After the NBA and its players’ union renewed the collective bargaining agreement in January 2017, in came lots of changes. The two sides agreed on a shortened preseason, new maximum contracts for veteran players and the introduction of two-way player contracts.

  • Natural Streams Entering Combined Sewer Systems Geoffrey Lenat Design Research Fall 2014
    Natural Streams Entering Combined Sewer Systems Geoffrey Lenat Design Research Fall 2014 Abstract I am interested in locating natural streams that have been diverted into combined sewer systems. I want to research methods of reducing the amount of water entering the combined sewer system, especially in instances where streams are contributing to sewer flow during dry weather. I will begin my research by looking at historic maps showing natural stream routes that now enter combined sewer areas. I will look for points where surface streams still exist, the size of their watershed, and their entry point into the sewer system. I am hoping to discover situations where storm water entering the combined sewer system from a large watershed can be diverted and separated from the combined sewer system. This type of storm water diversion could significantly reduce combined sewer overflow.
