Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston Will 'Discuss' Move to Arizona, Plans for Son Tripp
Johnston's rep told TMZ Levi is "aware" of Bristol's plans to move away from Alaska, but that the two have yet to talk about relocating Tripp.
"According to court officials in Alaska, in order for a parent with primary custody -- like Bristol -- to relocate a child, she would need either consent from the other parent or she could file a motion for approval from a judge," TMZ reports.
Johnston's rep says Levi is "not at all upset" about Bristol's plans to move. "After the holidays, Levi and Bristol will get together and discuss plans for Tripp," the rep adds.
E! Online confirmed that about a month ago that Bristol purchased a property in Maricopa, Ariz., approximately 35 miles south of Phoenix -- a region hard hit by the financial recession (ABC's 'Nightline' has called Maricopa the "poster child of the housing crisis"). Public records show the five-bedroom home was originally built in 2006 and sold for $329,560. It went into foreclosure in January, with the most recent owners snapping it up for $137,200; it was then fixed up and flipped back onto the market for resale.
Sarah Palin's 20-year-old 'DWTS' finalist daughter reportedly paid $172,000 -- in cash -- for the large house.
A source close to Palin told PopEater's Naughty But Nice Rob that the entire Palin clan is planning to leave Alaska, with Sarah Palin also eying property in Arizona.
Earlier in December, Bristol said of Levi's new gal pal Sunny Oglesby: "I have to be happy for Levi's new relationship because it sounds like his new girlfriend is influencing him to want to actually spend time with Tripp. I sincerely appreciate her influence because [Levi] hasn't asked to see Tripp in over five months, so I'm happy for this new development!"
The 19-year-old Oglesby, is "In a Relationship with Levi Johnston," according to her Facebook page, which also features a photo of her kissing Palin's 20-year-old ex.

This is not news. Nobody should care where she lives. Why have we put so much "importance" on this person?

Reality check Bristol ! Single moms can need much family support -- who will help you with Tripp if you leave everyone behind ? I think she will miss the "fam", but if she is wanting to try & make it on her own, more power to her !

Do the sane people of Arizona get a vote? The state is already overrun with a nutty governor who "sees" headless bodies in the desert and a senator who is an enemy collaborator. Why would they want a someone who quit her job so that she wouldn't be indicted for illegally using government funds?

Ummm....Bristol is the "Teen Advocate"? Well, can someone pleae tell me what she has done for teens? I mean ok, gives speeches. But how often does she do that? Why don't we hear about it more? I'm sorry but the girl is nothing but a glory hound. And her stint on "Dancing With The Stars" just made her ego the size of China. I'm not saying she's arrogant. I'm saying that she's got it in her head that "Hey. I'm Bristol. I'm making a difference." When the truth is that other than a few speeches she gives, she isn't doing anything at all.
- Tuesday 28 DecemberBy LE WILHELM
I really don't get all the catty stuff on this story, it's not a big deal, and all the snipping makes the left look....well very immature. And no I would not vote for Palin for President. But snarky is snarky and swarmy is swarmy.
- Tuesday 28 DecemberBy Charles
Nobody hates the Palins, but you have to ask yourself why this family chose to expose themselves like this. Easy answer, money. In this day and age of gossip Media, and reality shows, this family fits right in. They offer no positve examples to follow, they send no positive message.
- Tuesday 28 DecemberBy Sharon
I am not a Palin fan, but I don't understand why people pick on Bristol. She is legally an adult but she is still a kid.
- Tuesday 28 DecemberBy pauntp
While it may or may not be true that Levi hasn't asked to see his child in five months, it is highly doubtful that Bristol or her mother is particularly enthusiastic that he be in the picture in the first place. You certainly don't move to Arizona if you want the father who lives in Alaska to be involved on a regular basis.
- Tuesday 28 DecemberBy SharonHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
I agree with you. I think about it this way, if Levi isn't going to do his part to support the child or be a father to him, then why should Bristol hold herself and her child back from a productive future? I'm sure Sarah is the one supporting Bristol and the child anyway.

Nearly Mint 1876-CC Liberty Half Eagle1876-CC $5 AU55 NGC. All gold coins of the Carson City Mint are popular and highly desired, and nearly every issue is a rarity within its series. Certainly that is the case with this issue, from a mintage of just 6,887 coins. Few of those have survived in any grade, and very few that are any nicer than this. NGC has only certified 10 examples of this date in higher grade, and only three of those in full Mint State preservation. Of the seven AU58 grade coins, we firmly believe that only a couple different coins are represented. We have only ever offered one finer example of this date, that being an MS61 coin in our 2003 FUN auction. This is a splendid specimen with pleasing light yellow-gold color accented by wisps of pink toning. The surfaces have only a few minor blemishes, and retain nearly full luster. This is an important opportunity that the specialist should not miss. Population: 6 in 55, 10 finer (5/05).(#8340) (Registry values: P3) (NGC ID# 25WX, PCGS# 8340)

It's Spring and we just can't get enough baseball. Frankly, there's only one thing better than baseball and that's fake baseball. If you're like me, you've probably already got yourself in 3 fantasy leagues, a pick 'em league, a Road to the Show season, an OOTP franchise, and a half dozen other forms of make believe baseball dreams. This year, however, we're taking it to a new level with a Bugs & Cranks WhatIf Baseball League.ÂÂÂВ
We're using WhatIf Sports' simulation engine to answer some of the greatest questions of a generation of baseball fans:  Who has more rage when 'roided Roger Clemens faces 'roided Barry Bonds? Would the world really be a better place without the Yankees? Would the space-time continuum tear if Rob Deer and Russell Branyan were in the same place?ÂÂÂВ
Twenty-four teams will be represented in our "theme league", and each owner drafted from players from his team's last 25 years. Players are season-specific, so my beloved Cubs include 1984 Ryne Sandberg and 1998 Kerry Wood, for example. Of course, I have to pay them and much to the Yankees' (and virtual player's union's) dismay, we used a salary cap.
Though the salary cap somewhat levels the playing field, there are a couple twists to our league — hopeful David Chalk has Barry Bonds ('01) because – my God —  he's the Devil Rays. Since expansion teams have a smaller selection pool, they got to pick an "at large" player (which is different than Rich Garces, who is merely a large player). Clubhouse superstar Andrea Reiher's team is drafted of attractive men, so we'll see if the pretty boys can really play.ÂÂÂВ
The league takes 6 division of four teams, which makes the NL Central feel slightly inadequate:
National League East — Mets, Phillies, Braves, Nationals/Expos
National League Central — Cubs, Cardinals, Pirates, Reds
National League West — Dodgers, Padres, Rockies, Astros (Texas is in the "West", right?)
American Patriot League East — Red Sox, Orioles, Devil Rays, Blue Jays American Patriot League Central — Indians, White Sox, Royals, Twins American Patriot League West — Athletics, Brewers (back in the AL), Hotties, Marlins (managed by Robboto Clemente, and frankly suffering from a lot of jetlag)
The WhatIf engine will simulate our season, one 3-game "series" per day starting today, and eventually crown a champion of the quarter-century. We'll keep you up to date on our rosters and simulations every Friday and throughout the season on Bugs & Cranks.ÂÂÂВ
A quarter century of baseball, 24 teams, one simulation engine – let's find out who's best.ÂÂÂВ

In the News: Bluetick hounds eligible for Westminster Dog Show in 2011
In the news
Blueticks going to big show
America's biggest dog show has a new volunteer.
The bluetick coonhound, best known to sports fans as Tennessee sideline mascot Smokey, will soon be eligible for the green carpet of Westminster.
The American Kennel Club will fully recognize three breeds next month -- the bluetick coonhound, redbone coonhound and Boykin spaniel, the official state dog of South Carolina. They will join the Icelandic sheepdog, cane corso and Leonberger as rookies at Madison Square Garden in 2011.
The bluetick is a "redshirt freshman" and needs a year to qualify in local competitions, Westminster host David Frei said. So don't look for them Thursday on the National Dog Show, a Thanksgiving telecast expected to draw nearly 20 million viewers.
It can take years and years for a breed to be recognized, AKC spokeswoman Lisa Peterson said. Several factors are involved: a sufficient population and distribution in the U.S., a solid parent club that oversees the registry and a precise standard on the breed's ideal dog.
Blueticks have been Tennessee's popular, live mascot since 1953. The current Smokey is 6 years old and lives with his owner most of the time, then by tradition is cared for by the Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity on football weekends.
Charges dropped against Vol
The next time Nu'Keese Richardson and Mike Edwards show up for court, their former Vol teammate won't be with them.
Prosecutors dropped attempted aggravated robbery charges Monday against University of Tennessee football player Janzen Jackson and a woman accused as a getaway driver but said they'll press ahead with the case against Richardson and Edwards, recently booted from the team.
Jackson's status on the football team remains to be determined.
Jackson, 18, and fellow UT student Marie Lynn Montmarquet, 22, had faced the attempted robbery charges after a botched holdup Nov. 12 at a Knoxville convenience store. Knoxville police said the players tried to hold up three men outside the store around 1:45 a.m., only to be shown empty wallets and offered a cheeseburger.
Prosecutors reviewed all evidence, including more than 10 hours of surveillance video and taped interviews, which "failed to show (Jackson or Montmarquet) had prior knowledge that the attempted robbery was going to take place and were unaware something had occurred until after they pulled out of the ... store," Knox County Dist. Atty. General Randy Nichols wrote in a news release.
Tim Tebow and Colt McCoy are set for at least one showdown off the field. The quarterbacks for No. 1 Florida and third-ranked Texas were chosen finalists for two of the biggest postseason awards outside the Heisman Trophy. Tebow, McCoy and Alabama running back Mark Ingram are the finalists for the Maxwell Award that goes to the best all-around player in college football. Tebow won the past two Maxwells. Houston's Case Keenum joins Tebow and McCoy as finalists for the Davey O'Brien Award given to the best quarterback. The winners of the Maxwell, O'Brien and seven other awards will be announced Dec. 10, two days before the Heisman winner is announced.
Tennessee freshman center Faith Dupree will be sidelined this season because of lower back pain. Coach Pat Summitt said that Dupree will be rehabilitated and treatment options will be explored. Dupree, from Knoxville, played in the first two games of the season, scoring five points and grabbing seven rebounds.
Briefly: Sam Houston State has fired coach Todd Whitten after a 5-6 season and a fifth-place finish in the Southland Conference. ... Northeastern University is ending its football program after 74 seasons because the investment required to make it competitive was too high. ... Western Kentucky hired Willie Taggart on Monday to replace David Elson, fired two weeks ago with the Hilltoppers (0-10) in the midst of the longest active losing streak in the country.
Anna Nordqvist has won the LPGA Tour Championship and Lorena Ochoa finished second in Richmond, Texas, to win her fourth consecutive player of the year award by one point over Jiyai Shin. The 22-year-old Nordqvist shot a final-round 65 on Monday to finish 13 under par. Ochoa was two strokes back and won the top player honor when Shin couldn't chip in from the front of the 18th hole.
Rafael Nadal lost to Robin Soderling for the second straight time, falling 6-4, 6-4 Monday in their opening round-robin match at the ATP World Tour Finals at London. Soderling, who handed the Spaniard his first ever loss on clay at the French Open this year, powered his way through the Group B match by mixing a hard forehand with a solid backhand to keep Nadal running all over the hard court at the O2 Arena. In the late match, Novak Djokovic rallied to beat Nikolay Davydenko 3-6, 6-4, 7-5.
Martin Erat scored two goals and the host Nashville Predators beat the Detroit Red Wings 3-1 Monday night for their sixth straight victory. The Predators finished off a five-game homestand in style and have won 10 of 12 overall.

Teaching and Learning
The strategic use of information technology has the ability to transform teaching and learning helping institutions realize EDUCAUSE's mission of "transforming education through information technologies." All institutions have made educating learners a critical priority. Technology is a means, not an end, toward that goal.
EDUCAUSE focuses on understanding learners, aligning learning principles and practices together and integrating learning technology—all with the goal of improving student success. EDUCAUSE members also benefit from tools and techniques that enable them to deliver high quality academic programs and support services in a flexible manner. The strategic use of information technology can enhance student engagement, improve access, and make services more convenient. As IT is integrated into the academic enterprise, a number of other issues are raised such as financing, policies, faculty involvement, and assessment.
We encourage you to explore EDUCAUSE's resources on teaching and learning. These include the work of our members as well as material contributed from EDUCAUSE's strategic initiative, the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative. We hope you will find the material of use and encourage you to contribute to future EDUCAUSE activities in teaching and learning.

Venture School
Re: Considering alternatives to public high school
If you believe your son is capable of working independently, you might want to consider enrolling him at Venture (http://www.venture.srvusd.k12.ca.us/), an independent study school which is part of the San Ramon Valley public school system. My daughter hated high school and started at Venture the end of 10th grade, graduated last spring and is now a freshman at UC Santa Cruz.

Oklahoma City Thunder backup point guard Eric Maynor has had successful surgery to repair a right knee injury that will keep him out for the season. Maynor was hurt during the fourth quarter of Oklahoma City's win at Houston on Jan. 7. The team announced that he had surgery Wednesday morning and should be ready for training camp before next season. Maynor was averaging 4.2 points and 2.4 assists this season as the primary backup to All-Star Russell Westbrook. Maynor finished each of his first two NBA seasons in the top 10 in the league in assist-to-turnover ratio. He had averaged more than three assists for every turnover both seasons. Rookie Reggie Jackson has taken over as Oklahoma City's backup point guard.

EarthLink aims to evolve

EarthLink wins Philly Wi-Fi contractOctober 4, 2005
Google faces obstacles in S.F. Wi-Fi bidOctober 3, 2005
Power line broadband gets popular with tech firmsAugust 24, 2005
FCC changes DSL classificationAugust 5, 2005
Cable wins Supreme Court battleJune 27, 2005
Cities brace for broadband warMay 2, 2005
The company has taken some heavy knocks in the past few months. In June, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld an earlier ruling declaring that cable providers do not have to share access to their networks. The Federal Communications Commission soon followed with a ruling that essentially said DSL providers don't have to offer discounted rates to ISPs, such as EarthLink, which use DSL networks to deliver services.
The two rulings sounded like death knells for a company that has become increasingly dependent on the cable and DSL providers that give it access to their networks.
But EarthLink isn't taking the setbacks lying down. Instead, the company has been busy exploring new technologies that would allow it to bypass the cable and DSL networks altogether. Examining opportunities in everything from broadband service delivered via power lines to wireless broadband systems such as WiMax and citywide Wi-Fi, EarthLink is determined to find a technology that puts it in control.
"When I look at the company in totality, I see the eroding dial-up base," said Keith Dalrymple, an equities analyst at Halpern Capital. "However, the service is stickier than I would have thought. And importantly, the company has several initiatives I expect to restart growth."
Municipal Wi-Fi looks to be the technology with the most legs at the moment. Just last week, the company announced a contract to build a wireless broadband network for the city of Philadelphia. EarthLink will shoulder the $10 million to $15 million it will cost to blanket the 135 square miles of the city. In exchange, EarthLink gets access to the rights of way to build the network and will also benefit from the city's marketing efforts to promote the new service.
While other municipalities have created local wireless networks, Philadelphia is the largest city to date to formalize such a project. EarthLink is also throwing its hat into the ring for other large projects. The company is one of 24 providers bidding for a contract to build and manage a wireless network in San Francisco. EarthLink will go up against some heavy hitters for this contract, including Google, which is proposing a 300kbps service it plans to offer for free.
Cities brace for broadband war
EarthLink isn't stopping with Wi-Fi. The company is also exploring the use of electrical power grids to deliver broadband service into homes. It's currently testing services with Duke Power in Charlotte, N.C., Progress Energy in Raleigh, N.C, and Consolidated Edison in New York. But most experts agree that broadband over power line, or BPL, isn't likely to become a widespread broadband alternative for years.
Still, EarthLink's efforts are a clear sign that the company is looking to free itself of the large cable and phone companies that essentially control its destiny.
"We have been so disenchanted about our ability to get access to broadband pipes that we felt like we needed to take a more proactive stance," said Garry Betty, chief executive officer of EarthLink. "Our model would prefer that we be a non-facilities-based provider, but if you don't have people who own the network willing to sell it to you at a price that you can make a living, you've got to change the name of the game."
EarthLink is in a tough position. Including its dial-up and broadband customers, it currently has 5.4 million Internet subscribers. But that figure is expected to fall by as much as 50,000 this year, according to the company's own projections. Today, 1.5 million, or roughly 20 percent, of its Internet customers subscribe to broadband service. Boosting that figure is crucial to the ISP's survival, and so far it has been an uphill battle.
The major problem the company faces is that it's dependent on phone and cable companies to sell it access to their networks. The company has commercial agreements with most DSL providers across the country, and as a condition of the America Online-Time Warner merger, EarthLink also has deals with Time Warner and Brighthouse cable.
EarthLink works well with cable and phone companies, Betty said. "But it's a hard living. It's like being a sharecropper. They are basically selling (access) to me for almost what they are selling it to consumers. And it's hard."
These relationships are unlikely to dissolve as a result of the recent Brand X Supreme Court ruling and changes to the FCC policy

- Earthlink True Voice - NOT Viable
- After 17 phone calls and 2 and a half hours on the phone (combined hold & tech support time) over the last two weeks, I have pronounced Earthlink's attempt at Do-it-Themselves Voice Over IP dead on arrival.
Not even a dial tone after all those calls. It took 3 tries up front just to get someone to take my order. NO - Earthlink doesn't have this anywhere close to right.
Please understand, I have been an Earthlink customer for years (dial up & cable broadband) ... and a very happy client at that. When I saw that they were offering their own brand of VOIP, I figured it was time to save some money. Instead - all I have is a big box of frustration.
Waiting for my R.M.A.

- Earthlink True Voice- not viable
- I placed an order for Earthlink True Voice on October 28, 2005. As of this writing, December 2, 2005, I have no Earthlink True Voice service. I have spent hours on the phone with courteous customer service representatives who have no new information. Is Earthlink True Voice dead in the water? I too have been a happy Earthlink customer. I begin, however, to doubt if they can pull this off.

- Earthlink Tru Voice
- I too am having problems with Earthlink phone service. I just waited on the line for 47 minutes for a rep. My phone service was interrupted from my previous service for 4 days when I had been told there would be no interruption. They switched me from my previous carrier on a target date they had predicted my adapter would arrive. It arrived 4 days later at 5:00 PM-I have just waited another 15 minutes for customer service only to be told that I have 334 days left on my contract. I was never told there was a contract. So beware. There were many things they did not tell me. I couldn't even find out from them how to forward calls from my phone. The only way they knew I could do it was log onto the net and forward them through their internet service. In the last 5 days, I have had phone service for only a few hours today. Their reason I have no service now is the the system is down and it should be back up in 2 to 6 hours at which time I can check my E-mail for a reply from them.
I agree with the others that Earthlink internet has been a good experience but my nightmare with the Tru Voice phone service continues. I do not recommend this to anyone until they get the kinks out if they ever do.
To top everything else off, I cannot go back to my previous carrier unless I get a new phone number because they do not accept transfer numbers from Earthlink. I have had my current phone number for 30+ years.

- I too am a 5 year+ Earthlink customer. My reluctant conclusion is that Earthlink is nowhere near ready to be a phone service provider.
My experience over the last several weeks might make for a great comedy skit (e.g. "What is your mother's maiden name?" repeated dozens of times...) but the end result is I have no VOIP phone service after hours on the telephone (my land line) with Earthlink's customer support staff.
Earthlink True Voice has managed to establish a new benchmark for amazingly poor customer service!

- Earthlink true voice
- I have had earthlink broadband service for quite some time now and decided to go with their internet phone service. It seemed fine and I have even signed up for true voice, supposedly an upgrade. Since I did it seems like I have had nothing but trouble with my connection. Half the time I have to reset my box & shut down my computer to get a signal!!
Has anyone else had this problem lately? I am thinking of going back to my regular phone service though I don't really want to.

- What a mess!
- Can't agree with you more.After a nightmare with E/L Ulmtd Voice, we still didn't learn our lesson and opted to go with E/L True Voice cuz of the cost.Lost our phone svc 3 days ago & have rcvd no response to our CustCare emails.Rcvd a new router in the mail yest only to find out that they moved our svc without providing a new router. More $ but we're going back to Verizon.

- I agree with Judy regarding poor service from Earthlink True Voice. Who in this wonderful country of ours would want a phone service that will only drive one phone? I was told that the unit would drive one line and this implies, to me at least, all extensions would be viable. However, the unit sent to me will only drive a single phone on an extreamly short phone cable! A call to Earthlink Service ended quickly with the statement, "We don't handle True Voice". After an interminable wait the True Voice tech told me, "yep, that's the way it is"! I have ended up purchasing a new phone system that still does not function in the upstairs area! Only the basement and 1st level are covered, and poorly at that! My frustration continues when I could not even cancel the service without loosing the phone number I have had for over 20 years! Earthlink Internet service has been pretty darn good, but I can't say the same for this True voice system! At least Earthlink could integrate the service organizations or at least provide a simple path that wouldn't require calling multiple numbers with 30 minute waits! GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!

- You are not alone. We have had Earthlink True Voice for about 4 months now and we have also had nothing but trouble. Our phone will just stop working sometimes. It will unusable for about 2-3 days. The connection is very bad even when it is working and the party on the other end can't hear us. I am very seriously considering returning to our old carrier. The only thing stopping me is the $30.00 a month savings. But is it worth it?

- I activated my Truevoice on 9/09/07. As of 9/16/07 I've had to reset and reboot twice so far, occasionally we get garbled voice, a horrific, garbled echo when calling to Truevoice from our cellphone and clipping. Not happy, don't know if we should stay with Voip (with a different company) or go back to landline.

- TrueVoice and Chordless Phones
- We just established service with Earthlink TrueVoice to replace
our home service with MCI. I have a router set up at home to
provide internet service to three computers and it is through this
router and cable modem service that our one line of Voip is
connected. After receiving confirmation that this was possible
from their Tech Support guys I hooked up two phones, a fax and
an external answering machine (so we can screen calls). I
hooked up their little converter box and took the output from
the live output jack on the voip box and connected it to my fax
machine. The fax has a line out, into which I plugged a splitter.
One line went to our answering machine, the other to a 5.8 Ghz
chordless phone which has two hand units. This took about a
day of wrangling, but in the end, everything worked. Almost
everything. We figured out quickly that there is one vital thing
that does not work. If you are entering an account access code
or making an automatic menu selection with your CHORDLESS
phone, TrueVoice will scramble the digits. You will not be able
to access your TrueVoice voice mail. You will not be able to
check your bank balance or anything else you may be used to
doing over the phone. TrueVoice tech support acknowledged
this problem and told me that the only solution for this is to use
a chorded phone. My fax machine has a phone built into it and
with it I am able to navigate menues via button pushes without a
problem. I will risk putting yet another line splitter in the
system to put a chorded phone next to the chordless phone
where it would be more convenient. From reading complaints
abour TrueVoice, I have become aware of non-integration issues
relating to home security systems that rely on phone lines. I
hadn't even thought about this. I will now check with our
security provider to see what nightmares may be waiting for us
there. If you are smarter than me and are doing this research
BEFORE getting service, consider all these issues... and good

- Update On My Previous Post
- Since my last posting I bought a push button AT&T phone to use
for making menu selections. The results are hit and miss. Some
times we are able to enter menu responces, sometimes the
button pushes are scrambled and cannot be understood by the
automated menu we are navigating. Since this is a critical, real
world condition, our conclusion is that Truevoice does not work
and cannot be considered a replacement for your standard
telephone service. We will dump them and look for a better deal
that works.

- Very Happy with True Voice
- I changed over to truevoice last month, and so far very pleased with the service. Love the Voice mail feature and my Nortel phones have voicemail lights when I have a message. Clarity is fine. Only problem i had was my older ReplayTV unit would not dial up using VOIP, but my Fax machine works fine. Got a Tivo unit that work through over broadband and solved the dialup problem. My Sprint bill used to run $46-$95 per month, now it s flat $24.95 with only about $4 tax added. Phil

I don't know about having decent talent. They just flat out couldn't pitch all year. They don't have any depth in the starting rotation. Gardenhire seemed to do a good job in years past when they had Liriano and Santana.

Letter: I look forward to voting for Allen West
Chris Smith, Port St. Lucie
Letter: I look forward to voting for Allen West
A political editorial on the front page? Your vendetta against Allen West is clouding your judgment.
If you truly wanted to question the direction of our political process, you might have mentioned the widespread voter fraud perpetrated by ACORN, and the fact that the White House tried to block Florida's attempt to clean up their voter registration lists. I no longer have to show a photo ID to vote, and that bothers me.
As for Allen West, columnist Anthony Westbury accused him of sticking to the "same old script." It is true that West tells you what he believes and how he will vote. He does not change his stance according to his audience. In the last election, he was also demonized by the opponents and press and still won handily.
If you don't like him, don't vote for him. I look forward to voting for Allen West in August and November. Many other Treasure Coast residents feel the same way.

Scott Rolen....He is the vet leader on this team and brings something to the table this team lacked last year. If he can't give the Reds 125-130 games this year we might be in trouble.
Scott Rolen....He is the vet leader on this team and brings something to the table this team lacked last year. If he can't give the Reds 125-130 games this year we might be in trouble.
Jay Bruce - Must step up and show some consistency throughout the season. No more 20 HR months (May 2011) followed by 2 months where he looks lost.
I think not having Scott healthy last year really hurt this team. In all of the excitement of the offseason and the disappointment that was last season, Rolen's injury issues are kinda forgotten. To be honest, I really hadn't thought of this much. Good post.
Let's get weird!
Rolen is not the Key player, Francisco is better than Rolen right now with a bat AND the glove.
Francisco has improved leaps and bounds with a glove, making plays last season Rolen can no longer make. He won the Baseball America's Best infield arm award in 2011
Rolen can not stay healthy and when he is healthy he no longer fields routine balls.
The Key player will be either HI-C, Stubbs, or Bruce. The Reds needs another consistent bat in lineup besides Votto. The Reds will go nowhere without it.
Bruce put up good numbers last season but most of the numbers were in a 5 weeks stretch (2 stretches that equaled 5 weeks)
Stubbs started fast but fell hard and never recovered
HI-C is just now given a chance
If one of those three can step up and be the consistent bat the team needs they will be the key player
If Bruce can put up the same numbers but be more consistent about it the Reds will be in good shape
Rolen has not been a driving force in baseball for a long time, the last good season he had was 2006. Last season he was horrible, the season before than he fell off a cliff in the 2nd half (he had 3HR and 26 RBI in the 2nd half of 2010)
The Reds OF combined for 536 strikeouts last season. That needs to lessen.
The key is jay bruce ppl
I think the key has to be Stubbs or Heisey. They both have to cut down on their strikeouts and get on base for this team to be successful. If they do that, we already have the missing pieces in house with Stubbs being our leadoff man (I know, I cringe saying that too) and Heisey as the right hand power bat to put between Votto and Bruce.
The key is Dusty. Let's hope he doesn't burn out the bullpen like he did in 2011.
Heads of state that ride and wrangle. That look at your face from more than one angle. Can cut you from their bloated budgets. Like sharpened knives through Chicken McNuggets.
I agree with what everyone said about high strikeout rates and an outfield that needs to improve its consistency, but I think the most important player could be Homer Bailey.
There were times last year where he looked dominant, and plenty of others when he appeared on the cusp of being a solid #2 or even 1 starter. If he finally capitalizes on his talent and quits with the every third start being a two - four inning long disaster, this team will run away with the division.
Imagine a staff with Cueto, Latos, an improved Leake, Bailey realizing his potential, and that dominant bullpen. With that in place, any improvement out of the offense is just icing on the cake.
(Referring to Jack Hannahan signing with a Korean team)
Since there are no teams on the moon, I guess South Korea's far enough from Cincinnati to satisfy me.
Third base is perhaps the biggest question mark on this team, and also the hardest to fix. Rolen's in all likelihood the starter, but he's injury-prone, unable to play more than 2/3 of the games, and hasn't had a great stretch since early 2010. Francisco clobbers chump pitchers, but occasionally looks overmatched. Frazier's performance has been uninspiring, and he'll probably be called upon in the outfield. Cairo is a great utility guy, but doesn't play great defense and isn't known as a guy who can start on a regular basis. We'll go with some combination of these guys, but don't expect us to be league average at the position. After Votto and Phillips, a whole lot of guys on this offense are going to have to kick production up a notch if we're gonna make the playoffs.
As long as Rolen and or Francisco stay healthy we should be fine at 3rd. A big problem last year is they both got hurt at the same time.
I have to agree with OGB, with a little more run support for Cueto at the top of the rotation Homer Bailey becomes the guy that if he reaches his potential this season it could really put the Reds over the top in the division. Its also imperative without Volzquez and Wood to fall back on that Bailey remain healthy as much as possible and limit those short dreadful outings.
I'm not too worried about 3B. Right now, most teams are struggling there, so, it wouldn't be a stretch that we are at least league average there right now. Rolen, I think provides more intangible than most 3B's do, and, yes that helps. But...
To me, the key would be at least one of the rookies (Cozart and Meseroco) has to perform at least at league average offensively.
Stubbs, Heisey and Bruce needs to progress.
Any of those to conditions are met, than, the Reds' offense will be fine.
As far as pitching is concerned, The goal would be for Arroyo to bounce back and Bailey and Leake to progress. Latos can't get overwhelmed by GABP and Cueto can't regress much. The bullpen, well.. On paper, is pretty much perfect.
All of the above is definitely do-able. Execution is the true key. (No pressure on me, though, I'm just a fan.)
"It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt."
I'm not a man of many words. Read my posts, and you'll see what I mean.
Some people are Optimists (They see the glass 1/2 full).
Others are Pessimists (They see the glass 1/2 empty).
Me, I'm a Realist. 1/2 empty IS 1/2 full.

Mississippi Senior
40: 5.29
Has a nice first step, which can get him leverage against the run and allow him to press the pocket. Shows ability to shoot gaps and penetrate, and can close quickly on the QB to deliver a big hit if he can get free. Has an effective spin move to get off blocks, and shows a nice combo of power and quickness. Shows ability to make the stop at the point of attack.
Plays with limited hand technique and hasn't quite mastered his power moves. Tries to speed rush around the edge when he lines up at the nose. Will get overextended at times when he tries to get leverage vs. the run. Gets pushed off the ball too much, especially when working against the double team. Doesn't get low often enough in short-yardage situations. Has limited range when moving in space and conditioning has been a major issue in the past.
Powe reminds me a lot of Peria Jerry coming out of Ole Miss. He's a big guy, but thinks he's much smaller and prefers to try and use his speed and quickness to beat blockers rather than understanding that no center in the world can handle his power if properly used. Like Jerry, he went to Hargrave Military Academy before coming to Ole MIss. He started two seasons with the Rebels and combined for 61 tackles, 20.5 for loss, and 5.5 sacks in that span. Powe has dealt with weight issues, being as big as 383 pounds before his junior year, but he slimmed down to 325 before the '09 season and has done a good job keeping his weight in check since then.
You do worry a bit about the weight ballooning back up again, but since he's shown the discipline to keep it mostly in check the past two years, you're not super concerned. As long as he stays under 340, you're okay. Powe is a nice disruptive player, but I think relies a bit too much on his quickness than his power. And I think he's going to be a bit of a project because of that. He doesn't use his hands very well, and frankly isn't as good a run defender as you'd expect. He flashes skills there, but not to a consistent enough degree where you think he can come in right away and be a major contributor in a 3-4 scheme. He can play in a 4-3 as a role player, but his upside is much higher in a 3-4. But I think it's going to take him the better part of three seasons before he really develops there. Keeping his weight in check will certainly help. But he really needs to improve his technique, and really start to understand that his job is to eat blocks, press the pocket, and use his power, rather than trying to use his quickness to get upfield. Once he understands that and gets some coaching, he should start to develop and produce. The ideal situation for him is to go to a team like Pittsburgh where he can play behind an aging but still producing nose tackle, which won't force him to have to play a bunch of reps early, and then he can grow into his role. He has good potential and with his power and quickness, he can be a nice disruptive nose tackle in the Jamal Williams mold. But he's a work in progress.
Again, Powe is comfortable playing in a 4-3 scheme, and playing with his "big brother" of sorts in Jerry would probably be good for him. But his weight is a much bigger concern in a one-gap scheme like the Falcons. With his shorter frame, you want him to be under 320, and I just don't think that's a realistic goal for him to maintain that sort of weight. He could eat blocks and be a nice two-down run defender. But his limited technique means that he won't be impacting in a 4-3 scheme that quickly either.
For a 3-4 team looking for a developmental nose tackle, I would take him in the third round.
1-poor, 2-weak, 3-above average, 4-very good, 5-elite
Strength: 4.0
Point Of Attack: 3.0
Quickness: 3.0
Pass Rush: 2.5
Motor: 3.0

Off-season Roster Updates
With the amount of roster moves (203) we officially had this season, it's kind of hard to think that there might be any left to make this offseason. But where there's a will, there's a way and the following six players were outrighted to Round Rock:
-3B Kevin Kouzmanoff
-C/1B J.P. Arencibia
-P Pedro Figueroa
-P Wilmer Font
-OF Engel Beltre
-INF/OF Guilder Rodriguez
Additionally, the Cubs clamied P Joseph Ortiz on waivers.
Since being outrighted, both Kouzmanoff and Arencibia have elected free agency and are going to test the market.
207, 208, 209…
Postseason: Giants vs. Pirates – Express Edition
The NL Wildcard play-in game took place last night between the San Francisco Giants and the Pittsburgh Pirates. There was one former Express player in both dugouts with OF Hunter Pence (2007) wearing the victorious black and orange and RHP Mark Melancon (2010) donning the Pirates' black and yellow. The Giants have another former Round Rocker in their system, RHP Juan Gutierrez (2007) who was reassigned before the beginning of the postseason. Gutierrez and Pence were teammates for a grand total of 23 games on that '07 squad (April 5 – 27, August 18).
Good luck to Hunter as the Giants continue on in the postseason!
Postseason: A's vs. Royals – Express Edition
The MLB postseason starts tonight with the AL wild card play-in game between the Rangers division rivals the Oakland A's and the Kansas City Royals. There are three former Express players on the A's active roster and none on the Royals. There were a total of six former E-Train players who played with the A's at some point this season… and none on the Royals. This might be the only time we say this, but go A's!
Here's the list of all six with the current players bolded:
P Fernando Abad (2010)
OF Craig Gentry (2011)
P Josh Lindblom (2013)
P Brad Mills (2013)
INF Andy Parrino (2014)
C Geovany Soto (rehab – 2014)
Who are you cheering for tonight?
Rangers Farmhand to the … Super Bowl?!
That's not a typo… as I'm sure you've heard by now.
Rangers minor leaguer (and current Express infielder) Russell Wilson is headed to the Super Bowl. Oh, he's also the star quarterback of the NFC Champion Seattle Seahawks.
The multi-sport talent was originally drafted by the Colorado Rockies and hit .229 in 315 career at-bats, reaching Class-A in 2010 and '11.
The Rangers selected Wilson in the Triple-A round of the 2013 Rule Five draft at the Winter Meetings, placing him on the Express roster. We haven't made Wilson's jersey up yet since that whole football thing seems to be working out pretty well for him now.
Either way, best of luck to the Rangers farmhand as he prepares to play on football's biggest stage.

Former Express Manager Bobby Jones Promoted to Major League Staff
Congrats to (the now former) Express manager Bobby Jones who will join the Rangers major league staff for 2014 as an assistant hitting coach. Bobby had an overall record of 229-203 (.570) in his three seasons as Express manager (2011-13). Round Rock made one playoff appearance with him at the helm in 2011. He spent a total of 11 seasons as skipper of the Rangers Triple-A affiliate, eight of those with Oklahoma City.
The Rangers made the coaching staff announcement today in the following press release:
Jamie Reed named Senior Director of Medical Operations; Kevin Harmon promoted to Head Trainer
Arlington, Texas — The Texas Rangers announced today the hiring of former catcher Bengie Molina as first base coach and catching instructor. The team also promoted Triple-A Round Rock Manager Bobby Jones to assistant hitting coach to complete the 2014 coaching staff.
Additionally, longtime trainer Jamie Reed has been named senior director of medical operations and Kevin Harmon has been promoted to head trainer.
Molina, 39, spent the 2013 season as the assistant hitting coach for the National League-champion St. Louis Cardinals, his first coaching job since completing a 13-year major league career with the Rangers in 2010. Acquired by Texas in a July 1, 2010 trade with the San Francisco Giants, Molina had a postseason average of .293 (12-41) with 2 home runs and 8 RBI in the Rangers' run to a first-ever World Series appearance that year. His last major league game came as the Rangers' catcher in Game 5 of the 2010 World Series. Molina hit for the cycle with Texas on July 16, 2010 at Boston's Fenway Park, when he became just the eighth player since 1900 to hit a grand slam as part of a cycle.
A career .274 hitter for the Angels (1998-2005), Blue Jays (2006), Giants (2007-10), and Rangers (2010), the two-time Gold Glove Award winner was the starting catcher for Anaheim's 2002 World Series champion club. He is the older brother of Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina and Rays catcher Jose Molina.
Jones, 64, will be in his third stint on the major league staff, as he served on Johnny Oates' staff in 2000 and 2001 (third base coach, first base coach) and again under Buck Showalter for the 2006 campaign (first base coach, outfield instructor). The 2014 campaign will be the 27th season as a coach or manager in the Texas organization for Jones, who is one of the longest-tenured members of club's baseball operations. In 24 years as a minor league manager, he has compiled a 1656-1621 record and led his teams to 12 postseason berths, amassing the most games and victories of any manager in the history of the Texas organization. Originally selected by the Washington/Texas franchise in the 1967 June draft, Jones made his major league debut with the Rangers in 1974.
Reed, who will be in his 12th season with the Rangers, will oversee all medical aspects of the organization on the major and minor league levels. He will travel on both the major and minor league sides of the Rangers' system. Reed previously worked in both the Tampa Bay (1997-2002) and Baltimore (1982-96) organizations and had a stint as President of the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society.
Harmon will be in his 10th season with the Rangers and his first as head trainer. In addition to his work as a trainer, Harmon has also served as a strength and conditioning coach in a career that began in 1986 spanning stints in the Atlanta, Baltimore, and Tampa Bay organizations.
Friday's Top 5
Happy Friday!
As the division series kick-off and continue today, we can't technically call it the "baseball off-season" just yet. However it is the off-season for the Express and all of Minor League Baseball.
Every Friday during the Express off-season, we're going to introduce "Friday's Top 5." It will be the top five of a bunch of different categories all pertaining to the 2013 season. We'll have the top five games, top five players, top five crowds, top five pitchers, top five hitters, etc. As we close in on next year and start pumping up our celebration of the Express' 15th season, we'll start going further back in time and might even expand it to a top 10 to accommodate all that has happened the past 14 seasons.
Talk around the office today is surrounding the Express 2013 team MVP so today's top five is going to be five candidates for team MVP this season. It was tough to narrow it down with so many contributors on so many different levels, but we couldn't make this a top 50 so we had to draw the line somewhere. So here, in no particular order, are the five biggest vote-getters in the front office:
1. Joey Butler
OF Joey Butler was the team MVP for 2012 and with the year he had this year, he's definitely a strong candidate for the honor again in 2013. His .291 average was third on the team (min. 200 AB) and he ranked in the top three in four other categories: runs (71- 2nd), hits (124 – 3rd), HR (12, t-2nd), total bases (186, 3rd). He was fourth on the team in two other categories: RBI (51) and doubles (26). He saw time at every outfield position and filled in a DH. On top of all that, he made his MLB debut on August 7 as a pinch hitter (he recorded his first ML hit on 8/9 – a double).
2. Jim Adduci
OF/1B Jim Adduci led the club in a handful of categories: batting average (.298), runs (75), home runs (16), total bases (219) and stolen bases (32). He finished the season in the top five in another bunch of categories: games (127 – 2nd), at-bats (473 – 2nd), hits (141 – 2nd), doubles (24 – 5th), triples (3 – 3rd), RBI (65 – 2nd), walks (65 – 3rd), OBP (.381 – 2nd), SLG (.463 – 2nd). His 32 stolen bases were also tied for second-most in the PCL. While he mainly saw time in the outfield (95 games), he filled in at first base for 33 games after the injury bug didn't leave many other options available at that position. A 10-year MiLB veteran, Adduci finally got his much-deserved cup of coffee with September call-ups. He made his MLB debut on September 1, going 1-2 and starting at LF.
3. Josh Lindblom
RHP Josh Lindblom was one of the Express' most consistent starting pitchers. He was 8-4 with a 3.08 ERA (108.0ip/37er) in 20 appearances (18 starts). He led the team in wins and had the fewest losses out of all starters. He gave up the fewest hits among starters (86) and allowed the second-fewest walks (31) while striking out the second-most batters (79). His 1.08 WHIP was the lowest among Express starters as well. Lindblom made a handful of appearances with the Rangers this season (in three call-ups), going 1-3 with a 5.46 ERA (31.1ip/19er) over eight games (five starts).
4. Cory Burns
RHP Cory Burns was Express-closer extraordinaire. In 38 appearances, he converted 20 of 23 save opportunities which was 16 more than the next closest reliever in the E-Train bullpen. His 2.15 ERA (37.2ip/9er) was second-lowest among relievers with at least 20.0 ip. He allowed just 15 walks while striking out 48. He made three trips up to Arlington this season to join the big league club, going 1-0 with a 3.18 ERA (11.1ip/4er) in 10 appearances out of the bullpen.
5. Yangervis Solarte
INF Yangervis Solarte was a true utility man this season. He name was on the lineup card at 2B, 3B, SS, LF and DH. In 133 games with the Express, Solarte batted .276 (5th best on the team) with 31 doubles (T-1st), 12 homers (T-2nd) and 75 RBI (1st). He was also among the team leaders in total bases (219 – 1st) and runs (66 – 3rd). Solarte also ranked third in the PCL in at-bats (526). He is the only Express player on this list to not get playing time in Arlington this season, but his time is due.
Former Express in the Postseason
It's the best time in baseball when the postseason really gets underway. The Wild Card games were fun and all, but now it's time to start the real chase for the World Series ring. With the NL division series starting in mere moments, I wanted to take a quick look at where some former Express players landed in the postseason.
Boston Red Sox (vs. Tampa Bay Rays):
Boston has two former Express players in catcher Mike Napoli (2011) and pitcher Koji Uehara (2012). Napoli had a brief four-game rehab stint in Round Rock in 2011 while Uehara threw 3.0 innings over three appearances in 2012.
Atlanta Braves (vs. Los Angeles Dodgers):
Infielder Chris Johnson played for the Express in 2008-10. He spent 30 games with the Express in 2008, batting .218 with one home run and nine RBI. He spent most of the 2009 season in Round Rock, batting .281 with 38 extra-base hits and 42 RBI in 104 games. In 2010, he appeared in 38 games, batting .329 (49-149).
Pittsburgh Pirates (vs. St. Louis Cardinals):
Pitcher Mark Melancon was in the Express bullpen for three games in 2010, going 1-0 with one save over 4.1 innings.
Tampa Bay Rays (vs. Boston Red Sox):
LHP Wesley Wright went 4-1 with a 4.65 ERA (69.2ip/39er) in 15 games (14 starts) for the E-Train in 2010. In 2009, he went 2-1 with a 3.32 ERA (19.0ip/7er) in 13 appearances (1 start).
Which former Express players are you rooting for this postseason?
OF Joey Butler Claimed Off Waivers by St. Louis
Outfielder Joey Butler, who was designated for assignment by the Rangers on Monday, has been claimed on waivers by the St. Louis Cardinals.
He spent most of the year with Round Rock, batting .291 (124-426) with 12 home runs and 51 RBI. His contract was purchased by the Rangers on August 5. He made his major league debut on August 7 going 0-1 as a pinch hitter. He saw action in eight games for the Rangers this season, batting .333 (4-12) with two doubles and a RBI.
Butler was originally selected by Texas in the 15th round of the 2008 June draft.
A waiver is defined as a permission granted for certain assignments or for the unconditional release of a major league player.
A team asking waivers must notify the commissioner's office by 2 p.m. ET Monday through Friday. The commissioner's office will then notify all of the other teams of the waiver request. The other teams then have three business days to file a claim. If no team claims the player, the waiver is granted and the player may be assigned as the team desired. If a claim is filed, the team may withdraw the waiver request and keep the player if they so choose. Otherwise the player shall be assigned to the claiming team. If more than one team files a claim, the priority goes to the team with the worst record within the same league as the team filing the waiver request.
Waivers are required for assignment to the minor leagues for any player who does not have options remaining. (BaseballAmerica.com)

Does anyone know if they are ever planning anything new/updated for Fantasyland? I think it could use a new dark ride or something...anything. I don't think much has happened in Fantasyland lately.
I would suggest a darkride in the Skyway terminal, or a coffee shop there (seems like a cute fit!).
