Bwahahaha: "On the day CVS announced it would stop selling cigarettes, the $2B loss it will suffer for it was already being felt in Mt. Airy, where the poor corporation couldn't even shovel or salt its sidewalk."

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A U.S. appeals court on Monday rejected Apple Inc's request to fast-track its bid for a sales ban on several Samsung Electronics Co Ltd phones, ruling the iPhone maker could not argue its case to the full appeals court right away.
A lower court judge had rejected Apple's bid for a permanent injunction following a blockbuster trial last year. In its ruling on Monday, the Federal U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C., said a three-judge panel will first consider Apple's appeal, and the full appeals court would not decide whether to hear the case until after that.
Representatives for both Apple and Samsung declined to comment.
The fight in the appeals court comes after Apple won a $1.05 billion verdict last year against Samsung in a California trial court. Apple followed up its win by seeking a permanent ban on several older Samsung phones, but analysts expected Apple to try to extend such a ruling to Samsung's hotter selling models like the Galaxy S III.
U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh in San Jose, California, rejected Apple's request.
The fight between Apple and Samsung has been widely viewed as a proxy war between Apple and Google Inc. Samsung's Galaxy smartphones and tablets run on Google's Android operating system, which Apple's late co-founder, Steve Jobs, once denounced as a "stolen product."
The Federal Circuit ruling on Monday allows Samsung to keep its products on store shelves while Apple's appeal proceeds on a slower pace. Brian Love, a professor at Santa Clara University School of Law, said Apple's request for immediate full court review was a long shot to begin with.
"In some sense, Apple was asking to 'cut in line,' and judges are generally reluctant to give certain cases special treatment," Love said.
The same appeals court had rejected a separate Apple bid for a pretrial sales ban against Samsung's Galaxy Nexus phone. Last week it refused to rehear that appeal before the full court.
The case in the Federal Circuit is Apple Inc. vs. Samsung Electronics Co Ltd. et al., 2013-1129.

Summary of UN panel's report on environment
The energy supply sector: Governments would need to promote a range of options. Carbon-intensive fossil fuels could be substituted for by natural gas or mature renewable energy technologies like large hydroelectric dams and burning biomass (which does not add new carbon dioxide to the atmosphere like the burning of a long-buried fossil fuel does). Other renewable sources in development include solar-assisted air conditioning, wave power and nanotechnology solar cells. The report also included nuclear power, which - while saddled with issues - does not generate greenhouse gases.

Sacramento Kings: Google Glass Usage More Than Publicity Stunt
We've seen the Jetsons cartoons with the whizzing cars and snippy robots come full circle. First it was the wearable wristwatch smartphone with the Galaxy Gear. Technology just seems to work better when it's combined with sports. However, in this age where technology is released, topped and replaced by something else every five minutes, we haven't seen any advancements in the sports world. That all changes Friday.
When Vivek Ranadive bought this team, he promised to make it the most technologically savvy franchise in the NBA. Ranadive and his company Tibco Software created a Sacramento Kings app and just a week ago, the team announced that they would be the first to accept Bitcoin currency as payment for tickets and merchandise from the team store. On the same note, their use of Google Glass is more than a publicity stunt.
The Kings announced they will equip their mascot 'Slamson', cheerleaders, PA announcer and various players with Google Glass. The team will livestream the various footage for tonight's game at Sleep Train Arena against the Indiana Pacers, and will show footage via the arena jumbotron during the game.
The footage will be used before the game and during warmups with coverage switching to other feeds during the game. The Kings worked with CrowdOptic to refine the technology, which was given a test run on Jan.12.
Google Glass is being hailed as the second coming of basketball — and technological — innovations. The glasses can also be set to measure a player's energy levels, curate statistics in real-time and even record video without having to be prompted. While it's too early to tell whether the gimmick will hold, it does have significant use to coaches who would likely benefit the most from the added information in real-time.
Will there be a benefit to the fans? Find out for yourself when the team 'goes glass' on Friday night.

This homegrown music maker lacks the elegance seen in the BeatBearing project, but gets your body bouncin' all the same.

From there, the Java-based software translates the data and pumps out whatever beats you can dream of. Ready to take a listen?

Of what world he talking about? Certainly it is not the world around me: as I was homeless person all my life, so I will be. Government of USA is super-fraud, and any president – the biggest frauder… The current 44-th have one relative who is an illegal immigrant from Kenia and who recently illegally got apartament in Boston, while I have nothing and living in the country legally for decades. Where is the justice in the USA? Its gone long time ago. Surely forever…, at least for me…

COLUMBUS, OH - OCTOBER 23: Johnathan Hankins of the Ohio State Buckeyes attempts a tackle on Keith Carlos of the Purdue Boilermakers at Ohio Stadium on October 23, 2010 in Columbus, Ohio. (Photo by Jamie Sabau/Getty Images)
Twitter/@BigTimeHank Last year, there was no pressure on the Ohio State football program to perform, as there was no hope (due to sanctions) of reaching a bowl game. This year, things are drastically different. With the Buckeyes going 12-0 in 2012, expectations are once again high in Columbus. Fans are excited. Players are pumped. Heck, even former players are making guarantees that the Bucks will reach the BCS Championship Game. Wait, what? That's right. Former defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins, who was drafted in the second round of this year's NFL Draft by the New York Giants, made the bold proclamation to Fox Sports Ohio earlier this week. "I guarantee we see Ohio State in the national championship game this year. We were supposed to be there last year but that's over. This time around, they'll get it done. I see a star in Braxton Miller and a bunch of really good guys on defense, starting with the secondary. They'll be well prepared and ready." Strong words, especially considering we're still over a month away from the season even starting. It's great to see Hankins believing in his former teammates, but you have to wonder how all of this pressure is going to weigh on the young Buckeyes. We'll find out soon enough.

Black Jack (GN 2)
Title: Black Jack
Volume: GN 2
Pages: 300
Distributor: Vertical
Release date: 2008-11-18
Suggested retail price: $16.95
Age rating: 13+
Black Jack is a mysterious and charismatic young genius surgeon who travels the world performing amazing and impossible medical feats. Though a trained physician, he refuses to accept a medical license due to his hatred and mistrust of the medical community's hypocrisy and corruption. This leads Black Jack to occasional run-ins with the authorities, as well as from gangsters and criminals who approach him for illegal operations.
Black Jack charges exorbitant fees for his services, the proceeds from which he uses to fund environmental projects and to aid victims of crime and corrupt capitalists. But because Black Jack keeps his true motives secret, his ethics are perceived as questionable and he is considered a selfish, uncaring devil.

Lustmord is like a numinous deity of disquiet. Oft-considered the creator of the "dark ambient" genre, Lustmord sculpts atmosphere and mood to create unsettling aural experiences rather than creating music of any conventional sense. On his latest record, the mysteriously titled Other, he is assisted by Adam Jones (Tool), King Buzzo (Melvins) and Aaron Turner (Isis). Their twangs and drones set against Lustmord's brooding backgrounds achieve an even greater impact than usual. Using sounds extracted from crypts, caves and slaughterhouses Lustmord summons the reek of primal dread and a sense of eternal, solitudinous voids in the same vein as movies like Alien and 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Some of Lustmord's compositions can be transposed to visuals that reveal coherent images when run through a spectrograph. Perhaps a visual element would also benefit Other since there is no narrative arc or noticeable hooks to prevent the experience from becoming somniferous. If some unfortunate soul does fall asleep while taking in Other, it will at least serve as an apt soundtrack to a terrifying nightmare.

VIDEO: Kent Butts on Climate Change, Security, and the U.S. MilitaryFebruary 5, 2009 By Wilson Center Staff"Climate change is an important issue that can be addressed by all three elements of the national security equation: defense, diplomacy, and development," says Kent Butts, in this short expert analysis from the Environmental Change and Security Program. Kent Butts, professor of political-military strategy at the Center for Strategic Leadership, U.S. Army War College, makes the case for considering global climate change a nontraditional threat to security and discusses how the U.S. military is reacting to a changing climate.

40 free research summaries worth examining. Point-Topic's broadband data are the best available. They've been at it more than a decade and constantly refining their methods. Their service is professionally but fairly priced. I assume nearly all the companies in the business subscribe. Point-Topic always have been generous releasing free data as well and just made 40 country summaries available. http://bit.ly/PTbroadband A wealth of data.
I commend the data to all those in the U.S. government who are spending $millions to create an Internet Governance framework that excludes China and Russia. China began this year with 189M broadband subscribers, twice America's 95M. The gap is getting wider. Russia is growing at 13% to 23M. China's growth was 8%, which is far down from previous years. 3G and now 4G will limit landline growth in China. The U.S. is at 4%. The fastest growth is from developing countries. Egypt grew 17% in 2013 despite economic chaos.
300-400 Meg (shared) now standard off the shelf. I've heard from an engineer that the gear for New York is being installed and tested. They've been losing customers to both Verizon FiOS and AT&T U-Verse in LA, Time Warner Cable is upgrading download speeds. My 15 down, 1 up service ($63/month) is set to go to 50/5 for the same price.
Going from 160 shared to 300-400 shared in DOCSIS 3.0 is only a software change on most equipment. Extra backhaul costs are minimal. Now that the analog switch-off has freed spectrum channels, expect that change almost everywhere. Giant Liberty Global is upgrading across Europe and offering 200-250 meg service routinely.
Time Warner has also committed to a gigabit (shared) in 2016, per this strong LAT article by Paresh Dave http://lat.ms/1rEQZrY. No one except the engineers believed John Chapman of Cisco in 2004 when he promised the gigabit in DOCSIS 3.0 but now equipment is starting to ship. Last year, TWC also offered a gig in 2016 to North Carolina.
Straight talk in a DC world of obfuscation. The automakers want to restrict users of WiFi despite having 75 MHz of monopoly spectrum of their own. That's enough to build two Verizon sized networks, far more than makes sense to monopolize in 2014. TIA, the manufacturers' group, is right to call it farcical. http://bit.ly/Autofarce The car guys want to hobble the WiFi band near the spectrum they control above 5850 MHz. I'm tempted to petition the FCC to return 40 MHz of the auto spectrum to the public domain. 35 MHz is plenty for even safety-related car communication.
Denise Coffey and Dileep Srihari of TIA were blunt, "The Automakers state that the FCC must protect the 'reasonable interests and expectations of its operators' – with which TIA, of course, concurs. However, what the automakers assert to be their "reasonable" expectations is entirely unreasonable, bordering on unbelievable."
In five or ten years more people will understand that we already have too much monopoly spectrum. WiFi provides enormous benefits with much more to come. Soon, adding WiFi to today's 100 megabit vectored DSL would allow nundreds of megabits to most homes without needing expensive construction. (The tech works although the business side needs to be developed.) Requiring car makers to add 50 cents or so of parts to make their radios work right is a very small price for major public benefits.
'Use it or share it" - Mike Calabrese's compelling slogan, is the way to go on all spectrum.
Any conclusion you want. In France in the first quarter, 3 of the 4 DSL providers grew faster than cable. But if I look at the prior twelve months, cable beat 3 out of 4 DSL companies. Without lying, I could say either DSL is beating cable or cable is beating DSL. I just have to choose which period to use. In fact, the data is too sparse to firmly support any conclusion.
9 out of 10 "studies" about telecom policy are similarly weak and prove nothing. Or, as Teresa Mastangelo promises clients, "I can guarantee my report finds you #1." As she explained to me, she simply looks carefully at the data until she finds some way to slice it to come to that conclusion.
The classic example in broadband was when Copper Mountain reached a market cap of $1.5B on sales of $120M/year and losses every quarter. Brilliant pr woman Molly Miller invented a new category of "business DSLAMs" in which they were #1. Actually, they were far behind DSLAM makers like Alcatel and went broke a few years later.
Earned a remarkable reputation. When someone on Dave Farber's IP list criticized Verizon for lying, I spoke up. Verizon's comment that there was congestion at the point where they peered to the Internet was accurate. That, and not congestion on the network, is the current battleground. Fortunately, problems at peering points can be resolved in a few weeks and at minimal cost. That's what happened when Netflix agreed to the carrier demands for money.
Covering dozens of Verizon stories, I only once heard a Verizon policy person tell me something he had reason to believe untrue. Even in that case it may be that the D.C. policy person really didn't know but should have.
In my experience, Verizon stands out as virtually the only lobbying shop that persuasively makes its point while not distorting the truth. In this case, Verizon is accurate saying the problem is "there is [not] adequate capacity for the traffic to enter our network."
Still not turned on and not all 100 megabits. Deutsche Telekom has promised 24M lines of vectored DSL at 100 megabits in three years. They are taking delivery on several million ports, many from Adtran. Adtran had a surprising increase in DSL sales this quarter, with profits also up. Adtran's financial call also announced a Tier 1 customer is cutting sales. That's AT&T, which I've separately reported has nearly frozen U-Verse builds to influence D.C. on the DirecTV merger.
German regulator Matthias Kurth told me five years ago that DT had no choice but to upgrade where they face cable, but they've been delaying in hopes of persuading the government to cripple their competition. Deutsche Telekom loses 89K subscribers because they delayed VDSL upgrades. Cable offers twice the speed for the same price as DT and covers 2/3rds of Germany. They finally blocked most unbundling in 2013 and began the build of fiber/DSL hybrids. CEO Tim Hottges,"The fiber is the answer on what we are doing," but of course he means fiber/DSL.
German regulator Jochen Homann and EU Commissioner Nellie Kroes are doing what politicians do, claiming their policy of raising prices created the build when everyone in the industry knew DT would do it anyway.
China Mobile giving up after $3B, 4.3M small cells. 100 MHz of spectrum - enough to build 3 networks the size of Verizon - will become available in much of the U.S. The military has agreed to share the 3550-3650 MHz spectrum in much of the U.S. They primarily use the frequencies on the coasts so they don't need the MHz. The high frequencies have a short range so can't be used from towers but are great for WiFi and other small cells.
Bill Smith, now of AT&T, taught me "The sooner the bit gets to a landline, the less it costs us." Every plan for the urban wireless future is based on WiFi, small cells or short range high frequency transmitters. You can usually have 10-30 small cells in the space covered by a tower, each reusing the same spectrum. The most efficient method turns out to be public WiFi rather than monopoly use, which is becoming obsolete.
Today's 100 megabit DSL combined with today's gigabit WiFi, driving to a gigabit. 50 MHz of newly available spectrum may be diverted from sharing to private use, particularly LTE small cells the Bells probably won't build anyway. I'm headed to Colorado for the TPI conference where the 3.5 GHz spectrum will be a hot topic. I wrote this quickly because I wanted a dramatic example of what could be done with that 50 MHz.
How DSL + WiFi can get to hundreds of megabits and more. Nobody believes John Cioffi (yet) but it's easy to understand why it will work. Vectored DSL is delivering 50-100 megabits reliably in Europe. ~40M lines are on order at Deutsche Telekom and others. Vectoring is ready although not all the problems are solved.
Because DSL isn't shared, that means six apartments or nearby homes receive a total of 600 megabits (at 100 megabits/home.) Most places, 99% of the time the total demand will be less than 200 megabits. The result: 400-500 megabits will usually be available to share with neighbors. With WiFi now going into the gigabits (links), that can be shared between 5 - or 25 - families.
Biggest current U.S. broadband build virtually stopped I haven't confirmed Paul de Sa's suggestion that the AT&T/DIRECTV deal is a cause.
"Prior to the DTV deal, Project VIP (announced November 12, 2012) planned to expand AT&T's U-verse video footprint from 24.5m customer locations as of 4Q12 to 32.9m by 4Q15.6 At the end of 1Q14, we estimate the project was ~45% complete, with ~28.2m locations offered U-verse video."
I have double confirmation that the AT&T neighborhood DSLAM (FTTN build) is barely moving forward. I've asked AT&T if they'd release the actual deployment figures for the last three quarters to get a precise measure of what's going on.
Winning in Canada and England. DSL upgraded since 2005 goes 25-50 megabits (VDSL2) and competes well with cable. 1998 ADSL (3-6 megabits) gets clobbered by cable. The dismal results from areas with obsolete equipment, especially in the U.S., have convinced many that the race is over. It's a different story where the DSLAMs aren't 10 years out of date.
British Telecom "added 104,000 retail broadband customers." Cable competitor Virgin Media actually lost 300 subscribers. Bell Canada added 18K and Telus 15K. Rogers and Shaw cable added only 14K, combined. In a recent quarter, AT&T actually beat cable in U-Verse homes, about 60% of their network.
Verizon until now hasn't imposed caps on some of their older customers, knowing many would leave if they did. Customers hate caps and limits are not required most places most of the time. They've changed that now, with what could be very modest restrictions that would have little impact on customers. There's not immoral - or neutrality breaking - about modest limits honestly related to actual congestion and costs.
Fortunately, technology is improving so fast that today networks can be built for reasonable cost with truly minimal congestion. That should continue well into the 5G future and next decade despite steadily rising traffic. Very few traffic limits limits are necessary for network purposes today. The caps are for raising prices by collecting more from heavy users, not avoiding congestion.
Verizon's actual proposal should be rejected by the FCC because it actually doesn't disclose what they are doing. How often would I be throttled? How much slower would I go? In nearly 4,000 words, Verizon doesn't answer those basic questions. Comcast's similar plan in times of congestion reduces some customer up to 30% but no more. 12 meg would fall to 7 meg when one of their engineers described it a while back. The fall would only be for 15 minutes and very rarely even several hours/month. That's so unobtrusive I don't think anyone has even noticed it in practice. I certainly would accept it, especially because the minimum speed on most Comcast networks has gone up.
Nowhere in the 3,779 word document below does Verizon tell you how much your speed would be reduced or how often.
As I travel, world class engineers are telling me what's coming is almost ubelievable. Palo Alto 6 February �Wireless capacity will go up 50 times in the next 5-10 years,� Stanford Professor Andrea Goldsmith predicted at a Marconi webinar. Her Stanford colleague A.J. Paulraj and Broadcom�s brilliant Henry Samueli thought 50X reasonable. Both have won the Marconi Prize, the "Nobel Prize" of communications.
Berlin. 8 April 2014 G.fast came out for the first time at the Informa Fixed Access Summit. Deutsche Telekom, British Telecom and France Telecom all described active programs and an intent to deploy. European and American telcos want the hundreds of megabits from G.fast to match cable speeds going to a gig. I�ve been skeptical: the cost is nearly as high as fiber all the way home, it will take until 2016 or 2017 to get the kinks out and the coverage is more like 100 meters than 500.
Brooklyn, 30 April Ted Rappaport�s NYU 5G Summit had an amazing group of speakers. AT&T #2, John Stankey, keynoted and is damned serious about moving to 5G before the end of the decade. CTO Seizo Onoe of giant NTT Docomo was also there and soon after the event announced plans for 5G in 2018 with Ericsson, Samsung, Alcatel & Huawei. (3 of which sent CTO level speakers to Brooklyn, flying from around the world.) The enormous support for Ted and his NYU Brooklyn Institute has made him �The Prince of the 5G World.�Rappaport is concentrating on 28 GHz, a top down build which needs access points on nearly every crowded urban block. Others raised the possibility of WiFi �bottoms-up� to deliver similar capacity. The debate is raging, with FON, Free in France and probably the U.S. cablecos on the �bottom-ups� side.
Paris May 20-22 2014 A dozen of the absolute top engineers developing G.fast came together at the outstanding Upperside G.fast Summit. Les Brown provided an in-depth overview of the 300! page standard. CTOs and their peers from Sckipio, Broadcom, Ikanos, Lantiq and more spent three days trying to resolve the details. Top folks from BT, FT, Alcatel & Adtran joined in. Sckipio promises full standard chips in 2014. Broadcom�s customers are being told they will have something in 2014, probably far less than the standard. Some folks thought deployments were possible in 2016. Others thought later. (Deutsche Telecom�s CTO has said trials in 2014. He misspoke.)
Paris May 21 At that same G.fast event, John Cioffi introduced his remarkable plan to get to a gigabit using 100 meg vectored DSLs and gigabit WiFi. It sounds impossible but it definitely could work. In my apartment I see 20-25 WiFis. There�s no technical reason we couldn�t all share bandwidth; WiFi is already at 1.3 gigabits and going higher. Even if 25 homes were watching 2 HD TV and surfing, there�s over a gigabit unused that could be shared. Check http://bit.ly/GIGADSL

You gotta see this: Marathon Man
Related Links
Relevant offers
You've just gotta go see this...
If I had to list a few of my least favourite things, exercise, Nazis and dentists would be so high on the list they would challenge the physics of the paper they were written on.
Marathon Man (1976) featured all three. And I loved it.
One of the marks of a good story teller is to take something boring or absolutely painful and turn it into something exciting and thrilling; John Schlesinger proved his directorial skills in this adaptation of William Goldman's Marathon Man for screen with a plethora of brilliant actors from the good old days of 1970's suspense films.
Dustin Hoffman, plays Babe, a historian graduate who has two ambitions in life, to run a marathon and to clear his father's name, after having committed suicide during the McCarthy era, by completing his dissertation on tyranny.
A liberal pacifist, Babe is completely unaware of the fact that his brother, Doc, played by Roy Scheider (the guy from Jaws), is actually a US secret agent, accustomed to a life of intrigue, mystery and the occasional life threatening situation.
I was gripped by the, "what on earth is going on?" momentum of the first hour of this film. Seriously, so much is going on that you think you might have to check your IQ before continuing.
An old German guy takes a package from a safety deposit box...
Cut to Babe training for a marathon...
Old German guy gets killed in a freak road rage "fail"...
Cut to Babe taking a shower...
Suddenly, you find yourself in Paris, where Doc is nearly killed not once, not twice, but three times, by a mysterious guy with a creepy eye, using killing methods involving baby dolls, soccer balls and a guitar string. Really creepy.
Cut to Babe hitting on a gorgeous, yet mysterious, Swiss student, played by Marthe Keller, who he just happened to meet in the library.
Bam! We're in South America, another old German guy, played by Lawrence Olivier, shaving his shiny white hair and embarking on an ominous journey back to America.
The story chops from Doc's suspense filled life to Babe's montage of young love to the mysterious bald German fellow until Doc appears in New York - and then you begin to have the a-ha moment, the, "now I get what's going on" epiphany you've been unconsciously hoping will come for the past 60 or so minutes.
The old bald German is none other than Nazi War Criminal, Christian Szell who, during the war, stripped Jewish prisoners of their wealth in exchange for their freedom.
Szell's brother, having died in the bizarre car chase in the beginning of the movie, has come to New York to procure an almighty fortune of diamonds which his brother had locked away in a safety deposit box.
Szell, paranoid that Doc was planning to steal his Nazi treasure, decides Babe must be in on the imaginary heist, has him captured and proceeds to torture him, horrifically with dentistry.
It is a complicated drama, but it kept me on the edge of my sofa and made me want to postpone my next trip to the dentist, indefinitely.
I should add here that the torture scene was brilliant. Not because I'm sadistically-challenged, but because it suggested more than it showed. None of this modern day Saw slash Hostel show-them-everything nonsense. It left a great deal to the imagination, which in a way made it worse. Especially, I think, because Dustin Hoffman did such a good job of portraying such a quiet, gentle but determined guy who really just found himself with the wrong brother at the wrong time.
The thing I also loved about this film, and most 70's films for that matter, is that most of the actors were completely normal looking. None of these beautiful twenty-something I-can-do-anything types trying to save the day - there were even ugly people in this film. It was wonderful.
There is some nudity and at least one "post sex" scene which you might want to close your eyes for, bad language which you might want to cover your ears for, and of course, a lot of blood. But to be honest, it doesn't hold a snuffed candle to a lot of the stuff that comes out these days as far as violence goes. The most disturbing part of the whole movie, apart from a tooth drilling, was seeing Dustin Hoffman's butt for way longer than I would have liked to, when he is trapped in his bathroom, about to be the prey of a nightmarish kidnapping.
I'll give this movie 7 out of 10 for its suspense and its ability to set my teeth on edge, and for the make-up they applied to Dustin Hoffman's teeth after his "appointment".
If I was a dentist on the other hand I would give this film 3 out of 10 for its contribution to my professions suicide rate!

NCAA investigation of Syracuse has grown to include 'major and wide-ranging' violations
Mar 20, 2013, 4:26 PM EDT
The Syracuse University men's basketball team is under investigation by the NCAA for "major and wide-ranging" violations, part of an investigation that has been going on for "years," Dennis Dodd of CBSSports.com is reporting.
According to the report, the NCAA's investigation into possible violations of the drug policy has grown larger in scope, but is not related to the alleged sexual abuse case against former assistant Bernie Fine. Syracuse has acknowledged an NCAA investigation previously and the Fine case has already been dismissed by federal authorities.
It should be noted that the suspension of Syracuse forward James Southerland earlier this season was a result of the NCAA looking into the men's basketball program. Perhaps the most striking quote in Dodd's report is from a source with knowledge of the investigation:
"Throw a dart at the [NCAA] Manual [and you would hit a violation by Syracuse]."
The report quotes a source in saying that Syracuse has received a letter of preliminary inquiry from the NCAA and the process will proceed from there.
Syracuse lost to Louisville in the Big East tournament championship game after giving up a 13-point halftime lead and being outscored, 56-26, in the second half. The Orange return to the floor Thursday against Montana in the Round of 64 of the NCAA tournament.

CHESTER – The Master Plan update that the planning board has been working on with the Southern New Hampshire Planning Commission (SNHPC) is nearing completion and a public hearing for residents to weigh in on the work should take place in the next couple of months.
The Master Plan is an important planning document for towns. It outlines not only current realities, from demographics to taxes to infrastructure, but sets community goals and a vision for the future. It's a lengthy document with multiple chapters, but one that also sets the foundation for other important planning documents, such as the Capital Improvements Plan (CIP).
