FAA to delay closure of 149 control towers
Updated On: Apr 05 2013 03:03:12 PM EDT
The Federal Aviation Administration will delay the closures of 149 unfunded federal contract air traffic control towers until June 15, the agency announced Friday.
The FAA said last month it would eliminate funding for these towers as part of the agency's required $637 million in forced spending cuts.
Tower closures had been scheduled to begin Sunday and were to have been phased in over four weeks, the FAA said.

My husband and I got these phones in December. Mine locks up daily and I have to hold the power button until it reboots. Occasionally, I go to make a call and no sound whatsoever. Also, there's been a couple of times now that when I reboot the phone, an alert goes off, over and over and over. This is my first smart phone. I need to know if there's a software upgrade that I need to fix this or do I have a defective phone. My husband's locks up, too and he can't get his bluetooth to work on his, even though it recognizes it.
Lockups in Android are not completely uncommon, and in all honesty, Samsung devices have far from the best track record in this department. The Galaxy line solved many of the issues that plagued phones like the Moment and Intercept in the past.
The first question is if you have any additional apps installed. If you do, and they run in the background and crash, this can cause the random lockups. If you are able to hold the power button and restart the phone, it hasn't actually frozen, its just become unresponsive.
If you purchased in December, your device should be running Android 2.3.5. You can check this by pressing Menu - Settings - About Phone - Android Version. You should be running build ending in CL625406. This is the most current software available.
Now comes an additional problem... Do you have good coverage? If not, the device might be locking up on you because of the poor signal. This can also create the nasty message failed issue. Wi-Fi calling can help in poor areas, but its not a solution to those "bad areas" of tiwn
Let's get started troubleshooting your device by looking at the Apps you've installed and see if we can find a solution with those.
Sorry to tell you but Tech Support says this screen freezing is part of the 'known issues' with the device. Ive had it since November 2011 - gone through more than half a dozen factory resets, two manufacture repairs, and two different devices- and the problem continues to happen every single day. Rep after rep just told me it was one of the known issues with the device- screen freezing and power cycling - and 'theres nothing we can do.'
Some reps said they were working with Samsung on a fix, but not a single person at Samsung knew anything about this...
Others have told me its just a crappy phone with a poor processor.
Its probably not an app issue cuz ive done every single troubleshooting step known to man and the problem keeps happening. Its the phone. I havent been able to go through a single 24-hour period where the screen hasnt frozen and Ive had to restart it - and then pray it doesnt start power cycling. Whether you have 1 app or 100 apps...as Ive only downloaded most popular, well -reviewed apps - even tried task killers- but it still happens daily.
Waazzuppp knows what he's talking about so you can try his suggestions, but from my personal experience, my conversations with other customers, and numerous phone calls and emails to tech support, I can tell you they have repeatedly told me - in writing - this is a KNOWN ISSUE of the device and THERES NOTHING WE CAN DO...(except continue selling this phone to people without telling them about these issues)
Basically, if you want to try to avoid the problem, dont use the 'smart' part of your 'smartphone - Not meaning to be cute- thats what I was told. Otherwise, TMobile's stance is 'youre on your own' - and if you dont like it, go find another carrier - which many customers are doing.
I still don't understand how you are the only one that the reps are telling, that the phone is NG. Maybe your rep doesn't know what they are talking about, or you are making up stuff, or your phone is defective. To keep posting that this phone is NG, when almost everyone seems to like the phone, makes you look like a Troll, just trying to stir the pot at every chance you get, frankly.
You can call me whatever names you want. It hasnt been one rep who has confirmed this BUT MULTIPLE REPS, INCL over 5 TechSupport...and its been via phone, in writing via email, on this forum, in live chat on website, and via Twitter tmobilehelp account. (Im not allowed to post employee names). I have it in writing, and even had reps who told me they had the same exact problems. Im just trying to help others & prevent them from gping thru what Ive gone through. Ive also tested 2 separate handsets & both had same issues. Maybe theres a % that are f-ed up; I dont know. Just stating the facts based on my experience & what Tmobile employee after employee has repeatedly told me. Cant help it if you dont like facts. I have no agenda. To this day, all the problems continue & Tmos response remains the same: "These are known issues with this device and theres nothing we can do."
For the record, just checked some of my notes
In addition to tech support phone call with Eric just last week who told me these are known device issues, and he had these exact same problems and gave the phone up - that is the only thing that will solve the problem, he said.
There was Jan 25 tweet from ^MG "We're sorry this is a known device issue. Samsung and Tmobile continue to work together to provide a resolution" On Jan 23 CG said 'permanent solution pending...Samsung and Tmobile are working to correct"
On Jan 12, MG also wrote on Twitter "We're very sorry. As of right now it is a known issue, we are working to get this fixed ASAP. ^MG "Samsung and Tmobile continue to work together to investigate the issue and provide a resolution" (Yes I do realize the irony that these employees dont realize they keep re-tweeeting the same responses but Twitter Support Team seems to have a real problem with keeping track of their responses. Also whomever they are dealing with Samsung doesnt seem to communicate with Samsung TechSupport or ECR because they blame everything on Tmobile and say they have no idea what Tmobile reps are talking about)
In an email reply, Ian wrote "That is a huge problem and T-mobile is working with Samsung to ensure the issue gets resolved as quickly as possible"
This post will get deleted but I could go on and on and on...Ive been dealing with this since November 2011 and the first week I got the phone.
The irony is then the reps always say (and theyre obviously trained with these pre-canned comments which makes it slightly amusing) -"We're sorry you're not satisfied with our resolution" (even though they havent provided one) and then "Contract expiring is a great time to upgrade to a new device" -- Well my new device doesn't work - and you admit it has issues so I have no faith that another device wont have simiar issues.
Ok, let's clarify something here... There ARE known issues with the Exhibit II 4G. It is not a fatally flawed device though, every Android device has some known issues - regardless of what anyone thinks or says.
Now, the where I question things is when a sales rep, says something like "The device doesn't work" or "Yeah, it's a bad device that should be recalled". These are the things that sales reps will NEVER say, because it will get them fired. If you don't like the device or if it's not working, sell it for a $25 loss and move to a new one. You have multiple options for staying on a Smartphone, including buying a new Lumia 710 for $350 if you want. If you are a post paid subscriber, I would demand a fix, or a non-contract renewal at a huge discount.
Now as far as the screen freezing issue or the 'poor processor' problem, that's simply not true. The lag in the device is caused by a lack of physical memory for apps to run in. This can even be the bloatware that is preinstalled. When updating T-Mobile TV the requirement for memory went from 12MB to 17MB. Now multiply this by 5 apps when we only have 100MB of available RAM, and you have instant problems with the device lagging and locking up due to insufficient memory. The processor in the Exhibit II is basically the same beast that was placed in the HTC Evo 4G for Sprint in 2010. It's not new, but it is certainly powerful enough to run the basics of an Android phone.
My advice to you at this point, root the beast, freeze all the T-Mobile apps you don't use with Titanium Backup or MyBackup Pro, and find a good home screen replacement program (Go Launcher has gotten some amazing reviews)...
You will quickly see that if you free up system memory, switch to Google Voice for your SMS needs (although I don't have a positive feedback on this one, many report that switching from the stock message program to GoSMS fixes the failed message issues?) and install GrooveIP or Skype (with the unlimited North American plan for $2.99 a month and a $6.00 incoming Skype number for people to call) you will see the Exhibit II really does a fantastic job.
I can also confirm that the SMS issue is completely a T-Mobile thing as I have been testing Red Pocket Mobile (runs through AT&T) on my unlocked Exhibit without any failed messages or issues. Too bad I only get 2G data with AT&T services though, it might be worth the switch if it was 3G...
Ive been postpaid for as long as Ive had a cellphone and let contract lapse. The terrible custserv + reps telling me to find another carrier or hanging up on me doesnt really encourage me to sign another contract. You shouldnt have to root a phone -which they dont recommend- to get a phone to work. Yes I can sell it & move to another carrier. And will. As longtime customer, I expected more..and also want to open mngts eyes to what customers are enduring & why churn is not all due to the iphone. And whether postpaid or prepaid, it all hurts your brand image & has longterm consequences. Alot easier to keep your longterm loyal customrs than find new ones. My experiences w/Tmob reps is not unique. I hate to be the ecr rep going for a new job and employer googles his name & sees he tells customers to go to competitors. I know 1 customer doesnt matter to them in long run. Its just symbolic of companys problems..and as someone whos worked in PR for MAJOR global brands, I just find the behavior puzzling to say the least
I'm sorry, but if they're telling you to go elsewhere or hanging up on you, that says a lot about the situation, i.e. they're sick of dealing with you.
Of course THEY don't recommend that you root the phone- they WANT to keep admin rights on the phone. I have a tablet that I have admin rights on and it's absolutely amazing what I can do without being hampered by all this stuff. The issue with all providers and these phones is that they lock up admin rights and put all this bloatware **** on it. They don't want you taking it off because their apps = exposure/more potential profit, should the customer choose to use that service.
That said, it seriously messes up the phones because they lock it down and load it up with THEIR bloatware. You see the same idea when you buy a computer from a certain brand. They put all their **** on there, and it slows the computer down. What do you do? Go in and delete all that junk to make the computer faster. Can we do it on phones? Nope. They lock them down and we're not able to.
Rooting simply gives you the capability to get rid of the **** that clogs up your phone. They don't recommend it because one, it voids warranty, and two, companies simply just do not want to give users that much access because it means not using THEIR apps. Not using THEIR apps means losing money. Ohnoes! It's just how it's been going in the mobile market lately, unfortunately.
You seem to live in a way too idealistic mindset as opposed to logical. I'm not saying all the wrongs are right, but if you worked for such MAJOR global brands, you'd understand the tactics used by these companies. Welcome to 2012.
I just have to say as someone that has been on all 4 major carriers, used everything from Blackberry to Windows Mobile to Palm to iOS to Android, and is in one of the best coverage areas for all the major providers, all smartphones are flawed. They all have issues and they all have positivies.
Poor Sajam is just stuck with an underpowered device, probably in an area that isn't covered well with the 4G rollout (which the Exhibit II needs to work well) and has had completely **** advice from tech support and zero help from customer disservice... I would run to the hills as well. As a matter of fact, I ran from Sprint despite their best efforts to keep us as customers just because the coverage wasn't good where we moved. They tried everything, but if a phone doesn't work, it doesn't work.
I wish I could help more with the little nagging issues and make you as happy with your Exhibit as I am, but I think you're just ready to move on to bigger and better. Good Luck - and enjoy shopping... And for the record, check out Sprint and the iPhone 4s if you are leaning that way, the carrier was always good to me - and if they have a strong signal where you are - you can't beat them...
For the record waazzuppp, Im in Atlanta GA and have never had problems with signals indoors or out of doors wherever Ive been (except the Grand Canyon)
And Ive tested 2 Samsung Exhibit IIs and both have had the exact same problems.
Dont get me started on the customer dissservice - Tmobile can blame the iphone all they want but this is costing them a lot of customers.
I am very worried about trying Sprint. I actually have a coupon code for $10 off a month on their unlimited plan...but Ive read so many customers complain about their network problems that Im terrified to get locked into their system. Id probably wait for the iphone5.
Just wondering since you are the cell phone expert, what do you know about Straight Talks recent BYOP $45 unlimited promotion - They claim you can bring any ATT or Tmobile locked or unlocked phone, purchase a Straight Talk Sim and get unlimited everything for $45. However their website does not state what data speeds youd get (is it 2G? 3G? 4G?) and Ive tried emailing them repeatedly and they dont answer that question - and I think thats a pretty important question because theres a big differnce between unilmited EDGE data at $45 and unlimiited Tmobile 4G data at $45 (compared to their prepaid plan of 2gb for $60 or 5gb for $70) . The fact they wont give me a straight answer and speeds are not mentioned on their website raises a big red flag for me.
And you can correct me if Im wrong, but I thought I read the Exhibit2 does not take advantage of the HSPA+42 so the speeds are slower. Every time Ive tested, Ive gotten from 1-3 mbps which seems like other networks 3G speeds.
Im not even responding to the other posters- yes mr captain - who are just into name calling...Call me a troll all you want - that says more about you than me. Ive read several threads now of other Exhibit2 customers having the screen freezing problems and other issues so I know Im not the only one. And whether theyre right or wrong, Ive had more than half dozen reps now tell me the phone has 'known issues' - whatever that means to anyone - including the freezing - and Ive got that in writing on three separate occasions. So it is what it is. Luckily, while Im still having daily freezing -and the occasional phone turning off mysteriously - I have not had the hours and hours of power cycling in weeks - but of course Ive probably just jinxed that. But I still dont understand how with lite use, the phone cannot go without freezing for a 24 hours.
when they say "it's a known issue" it's a euphemism for 'I can't/wont help you any more'. A real 'known issue' effects a majority of the products/users, not just a few people.
Any company I have ever worked for ( and I trained dozens of tech support people at these major electronic companies), telling a customer something like that ( this is a known issue) would have been a firing offence. That is why this entire story sounds really fishy.
agreed. I don't think it was the first thing said, ie: My phone freezes, CSR: that's a known issue with this phone. good bye.
You all can keep the name calling since it makes you so happy. The 'known issues' comment first came up on day 3 of ownership, and Ive already posted copies of emails & several Tweets where Tmob said 'known issues' - along with the employees' first names and or initials(which they use on tmobilehelp Twitter account). Ive also talked with other customers & Tmo employees who've had same problems. You represent whats wrong with Tmo & its lack of cust serv ...ignore problems,blame others, name call etc. Thats why people move to Apple;they take care of their customers & make sure their devices work. Even Google has pages of 'known issues' with their Google Play Store & Google Music.
So keep puffing your chests with your name calling; at least waazzuuppp tries to help. The device has problems..it is what it is. Maybe it doesnt affect all of them but a certain % ...as the saying goes 'u cant handle the truth.'
Have no reason to make things up as Ive been with Tmo ever since Ive had a cellphone

the TRIXX Band (not exactly as shown)
... The end of an era has come as our beloved John Wood passes along the TRIXX Band
name to long time band-mates *Don & Carole - he leaves the band Jan. 30, 2010. We still feel that it is important
to tell you about John because we wouldn't have come together without him. Thanks JW for guiding us for so
many years! We love you as a friend and TRIXX Band Family member and we respect you for your talent. We also give
you a standing invitation and will welcome you as our guest on stage whenever you feel like getting your groove
on! Don and CaroleLet's start with our
founder ... John Wood (Bass, Sax & Vocal)
John had been forming his own bands since his first musical experience in the hugely successful
band "The COUNTDOWNS". From 1966 - 1969 the Countdowns' members, with their great vocal and musical stylings
were the rage of the era! And just like the more famous bands of the day they had it all, right down to the matching coloured
suits! They were a band to be reckoned with and John learned alot. This band had a great sound, great talent, while looking
sharp! John would make sure that any of the bands he'd put together in the future would have alot to offer too. The original
TRIXX BAND was formed in the mid 1980's. After years playing and travelling with the very popular disco era band "CHIC",
John settled back into the Windsor/Essex music scene and formed the TRIXX BAND while he attended school to attain an engineering
degree. (Way to go John! Always a leader!) We'll miss you John ... but as I write this I'm actually
smiling because I know that you'll always be a part of this band be it as a guest or in forever in our hearts.
Don (Leader,
Guitar, Vocal, Musical Arrangement and Sound)
Eventually, Don joined the band in '89. John originally tried to talk him out of it stating that perhaps
Don may not be ready for such a change in repertoire and club atmosphere after just coming out of a couple of the hottest
groups in the city; "BARRELHOUSE & The PLAYER'S BAND." The Player's Band had ruled the west side for years through
the mid to late 1980's. (You'll remember them as the house-band at Tune-Ups. Don, not only the fabulous guitar player that
we know and love, was a successful entrepreneur owning and managing the Tune-ups Bar. While carrying on the nightclub business,
Don took care of musical arrangements and lead the Player's Band to their success. The Tune-ups
venue, Don will tell you matter of factly, " Always guaranteed him a place to play!" Another highlight for The Player's
Band was opening for Aretha Franklin in Detroit, MI.)
In contrast,
the TRIXX gigs were at Legion halls and local clubs in Essex County. Although the material varied greatly to what Don was
used to playing, Don was enthusiastic and loved the change. Always a "Player" no matter the band! And man can he
tweak that sound! Don takes over as new Band Leader Nov./09
Carole (Lead Vocalist) Answered an ad in the paper to
audition in early 1990. Again, while interviewing, John tried to talk her out of it. Saying... (you guessed it) that the TRIXX
Band material didn't suit what she was used to playing let alone that the atmosphere was totally different as well especially
after being in one of the most successful rock 'n roll groups in the city. "REFLEX" was at the top of the heap playing
heavy metal danceable rock throughout the early '80's, playing in all the "A" rooms in the city/county and travelling
to play in Detroit, MI. and Sarnia, ON. on a regular basis. She also sang for CONCRETE JUNGLE in 1990, another heavy metal
band! John remembers her audition like it was yesterday. He pictured a rocker in leathers maybe even riding in on a bike and
to his surprise, along came Carole, driving a mini-van, and nicely dressed in a mini skirt. He recalls how nervous she was
with her lyric page shaking in her hand, clenched tightly, desperate not to drop it. It didn't take long to make a decision,
a little Patsy Cline and Bette Midler and she settled into the groove. Carole became their new vocalist. She too loved the
change of material and singing alongside the fabulously talented Gene Davis (Keys and Vocals). Inspite of their different
backgrounds the band jelled and this version of the TRIXX Band played up tempo dance music through the end of Feb. '95 (with
the most talented Al Hughes on drums ('93-'95).
They enjoyed a house gig
at the Ottawa Tavern from Jan '94 til Jan '95 filling the house with friends and family every weekend. Truly one of the band's
best years! John, Carole, Don & Al continued to play in different bands until reuniting again early in 2002. This is when...
John "Bo" (Drummer,
Lead Vocalist)joined. The audition call went out once again when the band found themselves without a
second lead singer which had been the format they had enjoyed in the past. John having recently played (Drums & Vocals)
in the band "JUMPER" came highly recommended to the rest of the band by John W. Of course the audition went well
and John came onto the scene while we were working at the RCL #143 joining mid way through the gig! What a guy! Johnny on
the spot! And a fine job too we might add! John L. started his musical experiences with "THE JETS" winning a battle
of the bands event in 1974! Highlights of his playing career include the following very successful bands that played around
bars in the city/county for years: "The MOVIES" (5yrs), "JUMPER" (10yrs) and "10 to ONE". Fortunately
for us, when Al (Drums) left the band, we didn't miss a beat. John L. left the front of the stage to take on the responsibility
of both Drums and Vocals.
Again, this version of the TRIXX Band is fortunate, having talented musicians
and building on lasting friendships. More importantly, the best part of this story is YOU! You come to listen... visit...
dance and celebrate life...with the band. Thanks for all your support throughout the years! The Best is yet to come!
Best Regards, Carole, Don & John

Will Drug Use at Occupy Wall Street Become the Pretext for Eviction?
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Want to get the latest on America's drug & rehab culture? Sign up for The Fix's newsletter here.
Thirty-eight days since the Occupy Wall Street movement first took over Lower Manhattan's Liberty Plaza, the movement has spread to more than 100 cities around the globe. Close to 60% of Americans approve of the protests. And while the protests exact demands remain hazy, the frustrations that spawned them have clearly struck a chord with Americans whose wages have remained stagnant over decades as more and more wealth has been transferred to the nation's richest 1%—who now own 40% of the nation's total net worth. Occupy Wall Street has succeeded, for the moment, in moving the populist issue of corporate greed and economic inequality to the forefront of the political debate. But its position there has been repeatedly attacked by opponents' attempts to paint the protests as a druggy, radical carnival.
When the movement began, most of the media treated it as an object of mockery, if they covered it all. Even The New York Times was slow to cover the movement that was born in it's own backyard. Several days into the protest, the paper finally ran a condescending article summing up the encampment as "street theater" and the protesters as rebels without a cause, focusing on a Joni Mitchell look-alike dancing at the edge of Liberty Park in her cotton underwear "[with the apparent] wish to burrow through the space-time continuum and hunker down in 1968." The subtext was obvious: If these kids aren't high, they're sure acting like it!
But as Occupy Wall Street enters its second month without any signs of abating, respect is finally being paid by the media, the Democratic Party, President Obama and even some Republicans. Recent polls claim that 73% of New Yorkers support the grass-roots action. Zuccotti Park has been visited by a disparate array of advocate, celebrities and politicians. Caught off-guard by the growing popularity of the movement, right-wing outlets media like Rupert Murdoch's New York Post and the Fox News Network have worked hard to demonize the movement by alternately portraying protestors as violent anarchists or coddled, work-averse college grads. Drugs have been a reliable lightning rod for such attacks. The Occupy Wall Street protesters are criminals "lured by drugs and free food," the Post recently reported. In fact, the paper managed to locate only a single criminal among among the several hundreds of protestors massed at Zuccotti Park in Lower Manhattan—their reporter must have worked hard to spot him. Undaunted, Fox's Bill O'Reilly went further, denouncing the protesters as "a bunch of crackhead drug dealers." His guest, conservative author Margaret Hoover, then irritated him by correcting him. "They're not crackheads, Bill," she said. "There's soft drugs—marijuana, stuff that you inhale. I personally haven't smelled it. My husband has." She then added, "It's a counter-culture collective."
The truth is, that while the Occupy Wall Street movement is largely sober and self-enforcing, such criticisms have clearly impacted its organizers, who are awaiting the inevitable showdown with the city's cranky mayor, Mike Bloomberg, over the right of the unprecedented encampment to continue. After the October 13 threat of eviction—the urgency to clean the park was the pretext—by the billionaire mayor, the Occupy Wall Street General Assembly unanimously adopted a " Good Neighbor" policy that included the statement, "OWS has zero tolerance for drugs or alcohol anywhere on Liberty Plaza." Unlike many issues, the policy was not debated by the General Assembly. Instead it was presented as a fait accompli. OWS press representative Jeff Smith told The Fix, "The language of the 'Good Neighbor' policy was not decided by the General Assembly. The language was imposed on us from outside."

During an "out-and-back" cross-country flight in a glider, the pilot noticed that the thermal lift began to dissipate, and he decided to "land out" in a field 1,500 feet below. He made a traffic pattern entry, and performed a forced landing. While on the base leg, the glider struck the top of a row of 20-foot-tall "hedge trees" at the edge of the field, and came to rest suspended in one of the trees. Examination of the glider revealed no mechanical anomalies.

A committee tasked with studying the boundaries of San Mateo County's five supervisorial districts and recommending possible adjustments will hold its 10th and final meeting on Tuesday, September 24.
The committee, called the San Mateo County Supervisorial District Lines Advisory Committee, has held public meetings since June. The Committee has gathered public input and reviewed boundary adjustment plans submitted by the public and a consultant.
At its September 24 meeting the Committee is expected to consider whether to recommend one or more plans to the Board of Supervisors. The Board is expected to meet on the matter October 8.
What: San Mateo County Supervisorial District Lines Advisory Committee. View the agenda.
When: Tuesday, September 24, 6:30 p.m.
Where: College of San Mateo Choral Room, Building 2, Room 110, 1700 W. Hillsdale Blvd., San Mateo (Free parking in Beethoven lot). View a campus map.
The Committee last met September 12. At that time the Committee voted to focus on three draft plans. These plans are available for review on the committee's website, www.smcdistrictcommittee.org under "Active Maps."
The Committee on September 24 can still decide to revisit previously submitted maps (all currently available for review on the website), modify the three maps and consider any new maps submitted.
The public has until 5 p.m. on Friday, September 20, to submit additional maps. A map-making tool can be found at www.smcdistrictlines.org
Comments can also be sent by e-mail to email@example.com and will be posted on the Committee's website. Background materials, meeting minutes, videos and transcripts can also be found on the site.
The Board of Supervisors created the nine-member District Lines Advisory Committee after voters changed the County Charter in November 2012. The change requires that only voters within a district can elect a supervisor who lives in that same district to represent them. Under the prior system voters countywide elected all five supervisors.
With heightened interest in district-based elections, the Board of Supervisors tasked the Committee with hearing public comment, studying current and potential boundaries and recommending possible adjustments.
The Board of Supervisors is expected to consider recommendations from the Committee at its meeting on Tuesday, October 8, at 9 a.m. in the Board of Supervisors Chambers, 400 County Center, Hall of Justice and Records, Redwood City. Google map.

I think it definitely wouldn't help, just like Jindal being unpopular back home wouldn't help.
One thing I will say for Walker, is that his recall is probably the race that matters more than anything. The fact that he won such a high-profile race so big probably overshadows even a middling 2014 reelect.
This stuff matters most when wooing establishment support, which Walker would want to do.

On Tuesday, Sens. Max Baucus, D-Mont., and Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, introduced legislation intended to stop the granting of patents for tax strategies. The Equal Access to Tax Planning Act of 2011 (S 139) would provide that "any strategy for reducing, avoiding, or deferring tax liability" is deemed to be "prior art" under patent law, and therefore not patentable.
The proposed legislation would apply to any attempt to patent a strategy to reduce tax liability under federal, state, local or foreign law. Similar language is included in the Patent Reform Act of 2011 (S 23), also introduced on Tuesday.
"The AICPA strongly supports the legislation that Sens. Baucus and Grassley are introducing this week, and we applaud the decision by Sens. [Patrick] Leahy [D-Vt.], Grassley and [Orrin] Hatch [R-Utah] to include it in their comprehensive patent reform bill," Barry Melancon, president and CEO of the AICPA, wrote in a letter to the chairmen and ranking members of the Senate Finance and Judiciary committees.
The AICPA has for several years opposed the issuance of patents for tax strategies. Specifically, the AICPA in letters to Congress and the IRS has expressed its concerns that allowing tax strategies to be patented:
In a prepared statement, Grassley said, "tax patents undermine a tax system based on voluntary compliance. Our legislation reins in the cottage industry of those trying to own tax planning strategies that should be available to everyone or that would encourage inappropriate tax avoidance."

Former state Sen. Andy Berke was getting more than 76 percent of the vote tonight in early results for his race to be elected mayor of Chattanooga.
He is in a race for the top city post with former city employees R. Chester Heathington and Guy Satterfield.
The next mayor is set to take office on April 15.
The new mayor will succeed Mayor Ron Littlefield, who served two terms as mayor. Littlefield's 8-year term followed two mayors who served one term each — Bob Corker, who now is the junior U.S. senator from Tennessee, and Jon Kinsey, a leading developer. They were preceded by Gene Roberts, who was mayor of Chattanooga from the early 1980s to 1997. Roberts died earlier this year

As the summer months near, there are some hard facts to face about what the sun can do to you, and what doctors are doing to catch and cure melanoma.
Some say the number of skin cancer cases is growing at an epidemic rate. In fact, melanoma is the fastest growing cancer in the U.S.
Every eight minutes, someone in the United States will be diagnosed with melanoma.
"Your mind goes all different places, like how is this going to affect my life?" says Megan Brinker, who was told she had stage one melanoma.
"It wasn't anything that looked to me like it was really bad or anything," she says.
Early detection was key. Studies show if caught early, melanoma can be stopped in its tracks. And now, surgery to find it is going 3-D.
"Using our technology, we can see the tumor as well as the surrounding blood vessels," says Younan xia, Biomedical Engineer at Georgia Institute of Technology.
Photoacoustic tomography uses laser light and sound waves to create a 3-D image of the cancer inside the body.
Tiny gold nanocages show a contrast between malignant and normal tissue.
For more aggressive melanoma, doctors are testing a new compound that triggers cancer cells to self-destruct.
"What we manage to do is trick them into thinking they are being attacked or infected by a virus."
Megan was one of the lucky ones. She's not one of the ten-thousand people melanoma kills every year, and these two medical advances could catch and cure even more cases fast.
Researchers believe the 3-D imaging will be invaluable for detecting and treating a variety of cancers, including breast and prostate cancers.
Background: melanoma is the fastest growing cancer in the u.s. Melanoma is caused by changes in cells called melanocytes, which produce a skin pigment called melanin. Melanin is responsible for skin and hair color. A scary fact about melanoma is that it can appear on normal skin or start as a mole. Some moles that have been there since birth can turn into melanoma.
Types: there are four major types of melanoma:
Superficial spreading melanoma is the most common type. It's usually flat and irregular in shape and color, with different shades of black and brown and is commonly associated with caucasians.
Lentigo maligna melanoma usually occurs in the elderly. It is most common in sun-damaged skin on the face, neck, and arms. The abnormal skin areas are usually large, flat, and tan with areas of brown.
Nodular melanoma usually starts as a raised area that is dark blackish-blue or bluish-red, but some do not have any color.
Acral lentiginous melanoma is the least common form. It usually occurs on the palms, soles, or under the nails and is more common in african americans. Even though melanoma is not as common as other skin cancers, the number of cases is growing at a shocking rate. (source: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
Treatment: surgery is usually needed to treat melanoma. The cancer and some surrounding areas are removed in surgery; however, if the cancer has spread to lymph nodes or other surrounding organs, then the procedure becomes more hazardous. When this happens, treatments may involve chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation treatments. Early detection is important in fighting melanoma. Studies have shown that if it is caught at an early stage, then the cure rate is close to 100 percent.
New technology: surgery is now going 3-d to find melanoma at an earlier stage. It is called photoaccoustic tomography. It combines strong optical contrast and high ultrasonic resolution to produce a 3-d image. The images produced help surgeons see a tumor more clearly and improve contrast between malignant and normal tissues. Tiny gold nanocages show a contrast between malignant tissue and normal tissue (appearing as different colors) (source: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
Another new technology for more aggressive melanoma is a new compound that triggers cancer cells into self-destructing. Cancer cells usually go through a process of dying naturally at the end of their lives (called apoptosis), but sometimes they can bypass this process and multiply resulting in tumors. Dr paul hergenrother, from the university of illinois in urbana, and colleagues found that a synthetic compound, called pac-1, was able to activate cancer cells and "trick" them into "committing suicide" . With more testing, doctors think that these two new ways to treat and kill cancer will save many lives. (source: www.eurekalert.org).

West Chester, PA 19383
Steps to Follow when Injured at Work:
1. Immediately notify your supervisor of your injury
2. Complete an "Employee Incident Report" with your supervisor on the same business day as the injury. Be sure to include as much detail as possible regarding the injury. When the form is completed, and signed by both you and your supervisor, send the completed form to Desiree Norris by email (email@example.com) or fax (610) 436-3471.
3. If medical attention was sought and/or time was lost from work due to the injury, a claim will be filed by Human Resources with Inservco, our third party workers' compensation insurance company
4. If a claim is filed, Inservco will review the claim information to determine if it is compensable under the Workers' Compensation Law. Once this determination is made, Inservco will notify you directly whether or not the claim is approved
Tips to Remember:
- Even if you do not immediately seek medical attention or lose time from work, you should still fill out and submit an Employee Incident Report.
- Notify your supervisor immediately of any medical attention or lost time due to your injury.
- If you do choose to seek medical attention for a non-emergency, be sure to make an appointment with a panel physician, not the student health center (Click Here to view the list of University panel physicians). Employees must treat with one of West Chester's University's approved panel physicians for the first 90 days.
- If time is lost from work, you are responsible for contacting your supervisor as soon as your doctor certifies that you are able to return to work.

Ban warfare experiments on animals petition
Animal Experiments Letter to the Editor
Humane Medical Research Letter to the Editor
ANIMALS - The hidden victims of war
Throughout the history of human conflict, animals have been used as military tools for war. The purposes to which they are put are ever more diverse.
Animal Aid's new report exposes the truth about the ways in which animals animals are killed and exploited as a consequence of human warfare.
Animals: the hidden victims of war
Animals don't drop bombs, neither do they produce chemical weapons or killer viruses. Because we do, why should they suffer?
Animals: the hidden victims of war has received support from leading figures in each of the major parliamentary parties.
Says Norman Baker MP:
"Animal Aid's timely report reminds us just how many animals are exploited, suffer and die in order that one set of humans engaged in warfare can gain an advantage over another. I hope that one day the human race will leave behind the use of war, but until it does so, it should agree to try to minimize the impact on animals."
Says Anne Widdecombe MP:
"Inflicting suffering on animals to decide whether something can inflict even worse suffering on humans is a hideous misuse of our position in creation."
Says Tony Benn:
"War destroys all life - human and animal and lays waste to our homeland. Give peace a chance."

Sandwiches and The City #2 (Fuzzy's Grub).
SATC #2: Fuzzy's Grub (St. James's) – turkey Christmas dinner on wholemeal bap.
Where: Fuzzy's grub – St. James's Branch.
When: 8th December, lunchtime, I met up with Jonathan for a carb-based lunch in town.
Concept: Fuzzy's grub is all about the meat, carvery style. The idea here is basically that you can get a whole roast dinner – in a sandwich. I mean, I had to try it.
Bread: A wholemeal bap (I sniggered at the word bap). It was perfectly serviceable.
Flavour: We both opted for a Christmas sandwich with 'the works'. Turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, peas, carrots and gravy. To be honest, nothing in the sandwich really tasted of anything. It was all one big bland amalgamation of nothingness. Perhaps some of the other options, eg. beef, lamb are more interesting?
Quality: Crap, to be perfectly frank! Well, the meat was ok but the rest of it? Blimey.
Quantity: Just see for yourself, that sanger was a monster.
Textures: Just what you would expect really. Well, not quite. The Yorkshire had the texture of rubber – which was a surprise.
Spreads/Dressings/Sauces: They were unbelievably stingy on the cranberry sauce, it may as well not have been in there. I reached for the mustard on the table, both for flavour and moisture.
Assembly: Very good. We giggled watching them tower everything up and then squish the bread on top.
Value for Money: I think it cost around £6 but I'm not entirely sure as Jonathan is such a gent and wouldn't hear of me paying, which makes me feel bad for slagging it off but I've got to be honest otherwise my words are worthless. 'High margin' definitely springs to mind. It will certainly fill you up, if you can be bothered to eat it.
Service: Great, I think. No complaints anyway and they were cheery, I remember that.
Overall Score: 4/10
Overall, I was not impressed. I mean, the concept is great but the delivery? Poor. The vegetables were limp and lifeless, the stuffing was basically flavourless mush and the Yorkshire was incredibly dense and rubbery. They were also mean with the cranberry sauce and I found the whole thing bland to be honest. To be fair, I did have the tail end of a cold but then I have been eating other food during my period of sickness and I had no problems picking out flavours thus far. The four points they did accumulate are basically down to the fact that the sandwich was edible, the staff were friendly and the concept is brilliant. I must also say that Chris told me he has noticed a decline in quality since Fuzzy's first opened, which is a shame as he was basically existing on the lamb version of this for a few months. Apparently, the lamb is now often rubbery. Boo.
I must mention that Jonathan was marvellous company and if you want to know what he thought of the sandwich, read his review here.

SI.com's Jon Heyman suggests that "there's a sense out there" that if the Phillies include Domonic Brown instead of Jonathan Singleton in a package for Hunter Pence, the Phils have themselves a deal. Would you do it? Vote now.
« Friday morning: Phillies still in the hunt for Pence | Main | Trade talk: Other teams, players to keep an eye on »
Why in the world would we refuse to part with Brown for the best pitcher in baseball but give him up for Hunter effing Pence?? Give me a break. He's a solid playing masquerading as a star on the worst team in the league. We need to walk away from this deal. Cosart and Singleton was a more than generous offer.
I want to win now and that is why I said yes. Now, if Rubes can make it happen without Brown in the deal, I would much prefer that. But, as for winning right now, I have to say yes.
Because a year and a half have passed since then?
Not saying to move Brown, but it's not like they can't change their opinion on the guy.
I voted no.
From what it sounds like, a deal will get done today either way. So we should know by tonight.
Walk away r00b.
No, I wouldn't. I think.
Aramis Ramirez has a no-trade clause and doesn't want to go anywhere.
Yes, include Brown. That swing is tooooo long for the Majors and will be his undoing.
Heather: Fangraphs pegs Ibanez as 0.4 runs above average as a baserunner this season. He's not fast, but he's at least an average baserunner.
He's terrible in the field, but plays left field, so his defense is minimized.
But I get irrational hatred, it's always present on Beerleaguer.
I think we all want to "win now." Pence isn't going to be a guy that guarantees that (if such a player even exists). If we were acquiring a player simply to "win now," the Phils should have parted with Cosart for Beltran (and for what it's worth, I wouldn't have supported that deal either).
This would be a classic case of "buying high" on Pence and "selling low" on Dom.
Jack nails it. And GM's who sell low and buy high find themselves without a job.
Jack: Absolutely.
I voted "NO" and will a million times over if the price is that high.
jack: exactly. It would be stupid. One bat isn't going to completley change the fortunes of this team anyway. Christ, it's not like were not in the driver's seat in the NL.
I voted no. While I agree that it's a win now mentality, I would not give up the guy who you wouldn't give up for Halladay or Lee, 2 better players than Pence
From what we've seen from Ruben, he has to be smarter than this. He can't be that hard-up for Pence.
Rosenthal says Pence is the Phillies to lose.
For the first time, I'm rooting for the Phillies to lose.
If you include Brown, you might not have to give up Cosart and Singleton.
Do you value Brown more then both of them together?
Do you think Singleton has more upside as a major leaguer then Brown?
If you have to trade both Brown and Cosart, does Houston have to bring more then Pence to the table (maybe a nice low level prospect too)?
If you trade Brown, do you think a lower cost lefty bat can be acquired in the off-season to pair with Mayberry in LF? And how would that production relate to what you would get with Brown in LF?
And do you think Pence is the final piece of the puzzle? Does he help all of the lefty's in the lineup suddenly start hitting good RH pitching?
All of these questions are what Rube is mulling.
By the way, my opinions on Pence are not meant to suggest I think Pence is a bad player. I like him a lot. I'd be willing to include one of Cosart or Singleton and two or three lesser prospects. I think he'd be worth that.
He's not worth our top 3 prospects and he's not worth any deal including Brown.
repost(back to back last post of a thread for me, awesome)
I have more faith in Amaro than I do Twitter.
I appreciate all the work those guys do, but I dont let their stories/angles shape my thoughts on how/what Ruben is thinking about doing.
if Brown's the price for Pence, I'd rather have Upton even if he does have an contact issues
Absolutely no way in hell am I dealing Brown for Pence and if that means he goes to the Braves then so be it. I was sure last night he wasn't involved in this. Now that he is, I seriously am voting it down. I hope RAJ balks at this. Seriously, do the Ludwick/Adams package and call it a day if that's the case.
You know what wouldn't surprise me? If the negotiations involve including Brown AND Cosart in order to get the Astros to pick up the rest of Pence's salary this year, thus keeping us under the luxury tax.
Of course, Rube could be making a deal that has nothing to do with Pence. He's surprised us before.
lorecore: Do not question the Twitter!
Rube is driving up the price for Pence. He's like that Dave Hester guy on Storage Wars. He's making the others (Braves) overpay. Y-E-E-E-E-P!
It's ruben. For all we know a kemp deal will be announced on thursday. LOL
56 people (25%) voted "yes"? Wow. I guess we found the people calling into WIP to talk baseball. Stick to the Vince Young news, please.
I am shocked by that.
sunday rather. typo
If Wade manages to walk away with Brown, then all future Wade-is-a-dope jokes will be permanently verboten. He will have played the market expertly.
The trade deadline just needs to get here so we can stop arguing about hypothetical scenarios and criticize the results.
Jack hit it exactly. it's not the time to sell all these pieces for a guy won't put the phillies over the top IMO. if it was for beltran, i'd probably do it, but not for hunter pence.
Jack - Yup. I am not opposed to trading Brown necessarily either. Just not for a guy like Pence.
"Rosenthal says Pence is the Phillies to lose"
Since Rosenthal was the first to bring up the Halladay in/Lee out stuff a few years back, he's a guy I pay attention to.
bad deal. Cosart and Singleton was overly generous for a piece that isn't needed. I wouldn't do Brown straight up for Pence. No reason to think Brown can't produce at the same level as Pence over the rest of the year. Rube can't be serious on this one. Hopefully just driving up the price for others.
FWIW, I don't think Brown will be included in the final deal.
I think this afternoon, the Phillies and Astros will complete a deal involving Singleton, Cosart and May for Pence, with the Astros contributing $1M of salary for the rest of the year.
phils and nova: You'd have offered all these guys on a 2 month rental?
Bed Beard: My thought exactly. Ever since Rosenthal was all over that story, I have taken everything he says more seriously than other writers.
As long as it doesn't include the Vanimal...I am all for anyone we throw in!
Does this hunger for Pence make any more sense than the Nats' hard-on for Denard Span?
I think this afternoon, the Phillies and Astros will complete a deal involving Singleton, Cosart and May for Pence, with the Astros contributing $1M of salary for the rest of the year.
Jack, I don't think that deal would bother me that much. I'm not crazy about it, but I could live with it.
Brown is the #1 prospect in our system. He has shown he can hit at the ML level, which is far more than any other prospect we have. He has shown the kind of peripherals you drool over when considering his upside.
Trade that for Pence for 1 1/2 years at $25 MM?
Is there a "Hell, no" option?
Quentin would make this offense lethal
Singelton, Cosart, and May is more than the Phils gave up for Lee or Halladay.
Ooh, Denard Span. That would be nice.
god. please. no.
Brown's not going to go anywhere.
The Astros will get their prospects in Cosart and Singleton and some other piece. It's going down. That's not a bad move for Pence. By the time Singleton is ready we will have already developed other prospects, moved on from this core and made trades to acquire established names. We'll cycle just fine.
I'd like to point out that over the last few seasons the Phillies have been involved with a lot of big trades around the deadline.
During the previous deadlines, twitter was useful for one thing, and that was saying that Team X was interested in Player X. Never did I see an "expert" actually correctly predict the prospects involved.
Pence to the Phillies has been going back and forth for a few days, and I'd bet that if this happens the deal probably won't be one we are discussing here.
I expect to see either Pence or Upton as well as Dom Brown in a Phillies uniform next week. I get the sense that Rube wants to complete a trade that gives him an outfielder to play with Dom and Vic in 2012.
I don't know what it is that you all see in D-Brown that makes him so untouchable for a proven commodity like Pence............who BTW bats right (just what the Phils need right now). I totally realize that everyone in baseball is in love with Brown but so far, I see what I see. A .250 hitter with 5 HR's and 18 RBI's during an extended stretch of playing time. And have any of you seen him in the field this year?? Stumbling and bumbling around routine fly balls and his arm while strong has been TOTALLY inaccurate. Pence is a .300 hitter who will give you 25 HR's and near 100 RBI's and will field his position without angst. This could be a GREAT deal for the Phils who with the current staff and aging lineup are in a WIN NOW mode.
I think the surprise Rube will spring on us is Aramis for Dom Brown, Cosart and Singleton.. I'd do that in a heartbeat.. or maybe Brown and Polanco (if deemed healthy)
The only writer mentioning Brown in the deal is Jon Heyman. How can Jon Heyman have any credibility on this topic, considering yesterday he said that the Braves were the only team talking to Houston, only to have Rosenthal correct him an hour later with the fact that 8 teams were talking to Houston.
Unless Ken Rosenthal is saying something, I don't believe it.
SJM, have been reading any of our posts? ANY of them?
If the Pence deal gets done,with or without Brown,we also need to trade RAJ for Wade.RAJ can't be that dumb to let Wade pull it off. Pence is not any better than Upton or Quentin no matter what the stats say. Ludwig/Adams is even better.
I don't understand the "win now" argument. What does hat even mean? Trading Dom for a good but not great veteran means we can win this year whereas we couldn't with the current roster? Either it's a fair deal or it isn't.
The Phillies are actually an above average offense at getting on base this season. What we miss, and what we had in abundance in recent years was power. Call me crazy, but adding the guy who is 54th in the majors in slugging AND trending downward since summer started doesn't excite me much. Certainly not enough to trade our best young talent.
What happens if we acquire another outfielder? Whoever it might be will take playing time away from Brown anyway. I voted yes. If brown lives up to 100% of his hype how much better than will he be than Pence is now?
Brown has good at bats. He fouls off a ton of pitches. But It has yet to translate into much production. Brown has played some questionable defense lately as well.
Do the deal. Give them Brown and Cosart plus another prospect and ask for one of Houston's bullpen arms as well.
Chris, if he lives up to his hype Brown will be much, much, much better than Pence.
SJM: well, over the last 4 weeks:
Dom Brown .303/.410/.379/.789
Hunter Pence .286/.351/.429/.780
Robby J,
Who plays RF if that goes down?
If they have to trade Brown, do it for a long term closer or some massive bullpen piece and OF deal. Pence is not worth it.
Heyman is a joke. He said the Mets declined an offer around Fernando Martinez form the Blue Jays for Halladay a few season back.
This guy has never once published something that has come to fruition.
I don't often put complete stock in a player saying something like this, but Aramis is pretty adament that he's not going to okay a trade. This one doesn't sound like a money play.
"Chris, if he lives up to his hype Brown will be much, much, much better than Pence."
If he lives up to his hype, Brown will be much better than god.
(...also realizing that Denard Span is lefthanded and on DL...never mind...)
"I think the surprise Rube will spring on us is Aramis for Dom Brown, Cosart and Singleton.."
The surprise would be how dumb it is. That would be the dumbest trade in a long time.
Read them all DH Phils. What's your point? I just don't agree based on what I have seen that D-Brown should not be a consideration in a trade for Pence. You all talk about Singleton and Cosart.................how many of you have even seen them play? You only know what the "organization" tells you about them.
can we get a F NO answer?
Sneed - you're right, it's not a necessary move, we don't need to settle for something that's the best of what's around if it's a marginal upgrade or questionable upgrade. It's not like he's a Holiday type addition. We are in the driver's seat of the NL and really don't have any holes other than the RH bat, but I'd be more than fine with Mayberry. We're going to win with pitching, that's where we've put our chips, so no need to deviate from that because we lost two to the Giants. The offense like any other offense has slumps, but we'll mostly be playing RH pitchers where our lefties should hit.
I'd take Pence though for Cosart and Singleton straight up but other than that, thanks for playing.
SJM: The "organization" as well as a half dozen other sources specializing in prospects & the minor leagues including Sickles, Law, Baseball America, Goldstein. . .
Why wouldn't Wade demand Brown in a trade for Pence?
And if he isn't, does that say that others in baseball aren't as convinced of Dom's future as some were a year ago?
42.28% voting "yes" is shocking. Shocking! What planet am I on? I figured there would be a few people that would be misguided enough to vote "yes", but 42.28%? That's really, really surprising.
People are really undervaluing Dom and immensely overvaluing Pence. By a lot.
denby b.: Of course Wade should be demanding Dom. If he isn't, he's foolish. But, Rube would be a bigger fool to let him go for Pence.
R.Bill- I think Will Schweitzer and Ed Wade just keep refreshing their browser and stuffing the ballot box.
Bob-- with Aramis here, does it really matter? i.e. Mayberry and Ramirez trumps Polanco and Brown.. Off topic, why the drooling over Zack Wheeler? At high Class A, in 88IP he has a 3.99 ERA, 98K and 47 WALKS.. I have to wonder what makes him such a prized prospect other than the K rate
I have faith in Rube. He won't move Dom for Pence. Pence is no Doc. Pence is no Cliff Lee. Pence is not Oswalt.
Dan in Philly: Pence CAREER (2007-Present) .290/.339/.480/.818
I have faith in Rube. He won't move Dom for Pence. Pence is no Doc. Pence is no Cliff Lee. Pence is no Oswalt.
It would be Sandberg for DeJesus all over again except Brown is considered better than Sandberg was at the time.
Rube needs to think about next year too...if you trade Brown then there's still a void in one of the corner spots. I'm pretty confident Brown stays
LOL Little Ollie......................Pence is NOT a pitcher!!
I shutter to include Singleton in the deal, much less Brown. IF we can keep Brown, get Raul off the books and have a long term OF of Dom, Vic and Pence I'd be pretty happy though. (assuming one of them can play LF).
"I totally realize that everyone in baseball is in love with Brown but so far, I see what I see. A .250 hitter with 5 HR's and 18 RBI's during an extended stretch of playing time"
Quite honestly, I see the same thing -- although I would have used different stats to make my case. I don't know that I would trade him for Hunter Pence; I lean toward no, simply because of the future salary ramifications & our many off-season vacancies that will need to be filled. But I don't quite get the "Hell no" attitude, for a guy who hasn't shown much aptitude for anything except fouling pitches off & drawing walks. Perhaps he'll eventually improve at the actual skill of hitting . . . or perhaps he'll turn into Lastings Milledge or Jeremy Hermida, who were also can't-miss prospects. Or perhaps the most likely scenario of all is that he will eventually be good but it will take 4 or 5 years to do so like, say, Alex Gordon.
Whether or not to trade him for Pence is a close call on which reasonable minds can disagree. But I don't quite understand the adamancy of some of those who are against the deal. If some posters are guilty of overrating Hunter Pence, many more are guilty of overestimating the likelihood that Domonic Brown will turn into a good player, and underestimating the time frame it may take for that to happen, if it happens at all.
Still hope the Braves ending up paying the king's ransom for Pence instead to empty out of the their top talent instead. Suck up some of their limited payroll on a complementary piece while hopefully taking a few of their stud prospects. Braves have a really nice young core already at the MLB level, almost no bad contract going ahead forward for the long-term, and a couple of guys in their minors poised to really
Wow, I don't get most of you. If you wouldn't do Brown and one of the prospects for Pence then you believe our lineup is good enough to win the WS and if that's the case you guys are sadly mistaken.
If this trade doesn't happen and we don't win it all, I'd like to hear your reasons.
The audience coming in from CSNPhilly has made the voting much tighter. Before the link went up on CSNPhilly, readers were 80-20 against trading Brown.
mlbtr says Astros are lowering their price on michael bourn - if you can keep all your top prospects and get Bourne to play CF and move Vic to RF, then hope DOM takes over in LF.
You can bat bourne in the top, either 1st or 2nd - then keep Vic in the 5 hole(he's mashing LHP this year) and Polly down in the 7hole where he belongs - thats a nice lineup.
Bourne's got a .367 OBP with 39 SB already. CF/RF defense would be the best in the bigs.
He's cheaper in trade value, in salary, and gives you another year in 2012.
I'll repeat myself. Wit or witout Pence, Dom Brown will be the best hitter on this team by 2013.
Also, re: the Pence stats above. Those are true but we should see an uptick given the better lineup and better ballpark. His CBP split stats aren't very pretty but its a small sample size.
Well said bay_area_phan!!
When I look at Dom right now, I also see a .250 with 5 HRs and 18 RBI. So what?
I get what you're saying, BAP (and others) that we could be overvaluing Dom as well. But that's the problem with trading prospects. If Dom was in A ball, I'd be more willing to let him go because his chances of making the Big Club are a lot smaller. Right now, his chances of making the Big Club are 100%. A highly touted prospect that has shown the ability to play in MLB (albeit not up to what his ceiling is projected to be), is more valuable to me than a few prospects in A ball. It is also more valuable to me than a guy who may not be as good and will make close to 20x what Brown makes next year.
Beerleaguer intelligence >>>>>>>>>> CSNPhilly viewer intelligence
JW: nice
Bourn bats left.
J. Weitzel: The audience coming in from CSNPhilly has made the voting much tighter. Before the link went up on CSNPhilly, readers were 80-20 against trading Brown.
Further proof the average Philly fan is clueless.
Where's clout to settle this and put us all in our place?
BAP: I voted no for the poll. My reasoning is that I'm very impressed with Brown's minor league numbers, and it leads me to believe he will be a success in the majors. Obviously, he hasn't put it together in the majors yet, but the keyword here is YET.
We aren't talking about if Raul Ibanez can revive his career, we are talking about a kid who hasn't reached his full potential yet. I also think the recovering hand injury could be sapping some of his ability as it has with players with similar injuries.
bap, I don't want to trade Brown for Pence because I don't think Pence is that good. Brown may be anything from Jeremy Hermida (Good downside comp, BTW) to a 20-25 HR/year Darryl Strawberry. Pence is Jayson Werth-lite.
lorecore: We already have 4 left-handers in our starting lineup -- 3 of whom can't hit LHP. Bourn would make that 5 and 4.
Here's what I want:
Pence, Melacon, Myers
Sardinha, Francisco, Singleton and Baez
Do we have a deal?
Yeah, no thanks to Bourn...I still think Upton give you the best case scenario

Barnes & Noble preps Kindle punching Google machine
Amazon nemesis Barnes & Noble is on the verge of challenging the Kindle with its very own ebook reader based on Google's open source Android operating system. According to a source speaking with The Wall Street Journal, B&N could begin selling an ereader as early as next month in the US, and gadget-obsessed blog Gizmodo pegs the …
"Taiwanese outfit"
So, HTC then? At least they have experience with implementing Android. I just hope it doesn't take them 3 iterations to catch the competition.
I love my Hero, but it took the G1 and Magic before HTC got there. Let's hope the B&N reader doesn't take as many iterations.
said it before...
the first outfit to sell a waterproof e-ink reader with an inductive power supply and a wifi connection for under £200 will get my cash. If I can't read the thing in the bath, there's no point for me.
People keep saying this on every ebook thread - "if i drop it in the bath it won't dry out like a book would, so there's no point for me fiddle de dee"
Firstoff, who takes a bath? A bath? Where are you, the 1930s?
Second, who READS in the bath? The water gets cold quickly, and soon you're sitting in cold water holding something that isn't waterproof out of the water (yes, they'll dry out, but try reading the bastard once it's soaked) aching your arm. What kind of masochistic pensionable crank enjoys that?
Showers and ebook readers, or baths, bath salts, pipe, slippers, werthers original, coronary heart disease and death. Your choice. Probably.
Who doesn't read in the bath?
I mean there's two places where reading works best, bath and bog. And you can only sit on the bog for so long before the red ring of doom marks your posterior. You can keep topping up the hot water in the bath and the planet be damned.
You can even have a crafty cuppa AND a book in the bath and be warm and naked and happy.
Who do you bare your arse to shortly after having released the chocolate hostages?
Who needs it ?
I'm still using a 10 year old Handspring Visor to read. Holds anywhere from 1 to 20 full length novels, and it cost me less than $ 25 american on ebay.
Let those who have too much money get either of these readers, Paris likes mine instead, it leaves more money to spend on her.
Barnes & Nobel
Sorry but B&N didnot launch their own eBook site they purchased an allready existing one Fictionwise .com and as a result allsort of restrictoins have been put on what they will sell you.
you can only purchase the full range of titles if you live in the USA.
Some sort of progress
As a recidivist mature student, this seems like a step in the right direction - an eBook won't become useful to me until I can easily annotate pages, which I would be able to with a decent keyboard. Of course it would also need to be able to offer me digital copies of some of the obscure and very heavy course books I occasionally require for it to become completely useful, and I suspect that won't be for a good while yet.
For the time being, I'll stick to Book 1.0 - it's nice to have at least *something* that doesn't require charging to be useable.

This lecture reviews the long-running debate among historians over Hitler's role in the decision-making process that led to the Final Solution. With particular emphasis on documents that came to light after the fall of communism and the opening of East European archives in 1989, this lecture will argue for two incremental decision-making processes, the first of which reached closure in the July 1941 and sealed the fate of Soviet Jews, and a second of which reached closure in October 1941 and sealed the fate of European Jews.
This lecture is the first in a three part series in partnership with the Wheeler Centre, entitled The Holocaust, Genocide, Human Rights.
Bookings Essential. Bookings open 9am on Friday 6 September
It is also the first in a four-part series to be continued at Caulfield Monash, entitled: Explaining the Holocaust
