Annual event: The Great Cumbrian Litter Pick 2021 is set to go ahead this year in May There is unanimous agreement between Cumbrians through-out the county that littering MUST stop. With rubbish left on the paths and peaks of beloved fells, in the rivers, lakes and verges of residents and roads, a number of initiatives and schemes put forward by councils and charities help clean up certain areas. However, there is no other greater opportunity for people to clean up the whole region than to join the annual Great Cumbria Litter Pick, where communities can come together to create a natural and healthier environment.

MJ in NYC: The best of His Airness at The Garden (2:55)
Relive some of Michael Jordan s top moments playing against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. (2:55)
MONTHS AFTER THE 1998 NBA Finals, Michael Jordan sat on one side of a giant table inside a Manhattan conference room. It was the site of a bargaining session between NBA owners and players. The league was embroiled in a lockout. The season was in jeopardy. But Jordan had other unfinished business to attend to.
A group of players sat with Jordan, who was an advocate for the union despite being weeks away from announcing a second retirement. There was one microphone in front of the six-time NBA champion and another in front of Dave Checketts, president and CEO of Madison Square Garden, who sat alongside seven owners and commissioner David Stern on the other side of the table.

Becoming an all-time great in the NBA is hard. Winning a championship might be even harder.
Case in point is Chris Paul, the legendary Point God with the Midas touch, who bolsters the success of every franchise he touches.
At 35, Paul is producing like always.
In his first year in Phoenix – after he helped carry a rebuilding Oklahoma City Thunder squad to the fifth seed in the West last season – Paul is averaging 16.1 points and 8.7 assists in 31.8 minutes per game, and he has missed only a single game this season.
Most important is the fact that with 11 games to go, the Suns have the second-best record in the NBA (43-18) and are one game behind Utah for the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference, with the two teams set to face off Friday in Phoenix.
LeBron James vs. Michael Jordan: Would A Lakers Championship Over Nets Cement James As Greatest?
04/25/21 AT 2:48 PM
The LeBron James vs. Michael Jordan debate isn’t going away, and it might become more heated in a few months. With the playoffs just around the corner, the Los Angeles Lakers star has a chance to win another championship and strengthen his case to be considered the greatest basketball player of all time.
James led the Lakers on a title run inside the NBA’s bubble last year, winning both his fourth ring and NBA Finals MVP award in the process. The league’s top star is still two championships shy of Jordan’s six. Winning it all this season would cut that gap in half for James and arguably push him past the Chicago Bulls legend in the GOAT conversation.
