"Boston Red Sox: So, this is how you overhaul a team in one day. Give GM Ben Cherington and his lieutenants this much: they got creative Thursday. First was acquiring Cespedes, whom they've got for next season before he hits free agency, and then flipping John Lackey and his league-minimum deal for 2015 to St. Louis for a pair of players the Cardinals were down on, Allen Craig and Joe Kelly. They got a pitching prospect in Eduardo Rodriguez from Baltimore for Andrew Miller and finished the day by sending Stephen Drew to the Bronx in a salary dump. And they're not done, not by a long shot, not with all their young arms and surplus of usable bats. Winter is coming. It won't be quiet." *** straight it won't be quiet.
What a dreadful, yet encouraging day for the Red Sox. I have been bemoaning the thought of trading Jon Lester and hoping that instead the two sides would work out a deal (while knowing that wasn't going to happen). While I am very disappointed and sad to see Lester go, I am happy that he might help the A's and Billy Beane "win the last game of the year." I do have to say I was more upset until I listened to some of Ben Cherington's press conference. Some might not like him, but his acceptance of responsibility for this season's failure, along with explaining the thought process and plans moving forward helped me come to terms with today's trades. Now, I hope the Sox at least make a serious attempt to bring Jon Lester back. Although I recognize it isn't likely to happen.

July 9, 2014 at 8:12 pm ET by Conor Ryan Ben Cherington: As trade deadline approached, Red Sox in 'unusual … unique' position After 90 games, it's hard to *** the 2014 Red Sox season as anything but a failure. A Red Sox squad fresh off a 97-win campaign that resulted in a World Series title was expected to once again establish itself as the cream of the crop in the American League this season -- not slump to the status of cellar dweller. This is not the 1998 Marlins, who dropped from a 92-70 record (and a World Series title) in 1997 to a dreadful 55-108 season the following year due to a monumental fire sale. The 2014 Red Sox have a payroll of around $164 million and retained 17 of the 2013 team's 25-man World Series roster. Simply put, no one expected the Red Sox to be 12 games under .500 at this point of the season. General Manager Ben Cherington is among those struggling to make sense of what has transpired. Now 10 1/2 games behind first-place Baltimore in the AL East, the Red Sox have bee .. ...

So, Theo is now in Chicago and not really doing as well as he was in Boston. Meanwhile, Boston has seen tremendous success with both Theo and Ben Cherington running the show. It begs the question: Was the job that Theo Epstein did in Boston really that impressive? And/or: Is the job that Ben Cherington is currently doing as impressive as it looks? I'd like to think the answer to each question is "yes!" But I do wonder sometimes just how important a GM is to the success of the Red Sox. Or any team, for that matter.
Ben Cherington hates the year 1985 - Red Sox 2014 roster is a blend of old, young and not much in between
Once again, the Boston Red Sox are confident of certain things -- for instance, the group of players they've assembled. "It's all about people selection," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "You've got to do your homework and find the right people who fit what you're trying to establish." There may have been a time -- and not that long ago -- when people wondered if Boston had the right stuff. During a brutal 2012 season, everything from the Red Sox's attitude to their effort was questioned. And then, General Manager Ben Cherington remade the roster by signing seven free agents, most of them unheralded team-first guys who had plenty to prove. The Red Sox turned the 2013 season into a magical ride that ended with the hoisting of the Commissioner's Trophy at Fenway Park. Now, with today's 3:05 p.m. ET season opener, Boston begins the defense of its third championship in 10 seasons against the Orioles at Camden Yards. These two teams are dramatically different and coming off very different seasons. But they' ...
Sox hit pause button for now on Lester contract extension. The Red Sox and Jon Lester, who is scheduled to make his fourth consecutive Opening Day start on Monday and can become a free agent after the season, have "hit the pause button" on a contract extension, General Manager Ben Cherington said Saturday morning. Cherington didn't want to rule anything out, but he said the two sides may wait until the end of the year before resuming talks with agents Sam and Seth Levinson, allowing Lester and the team to focus on the season. "We've had a lot of good dialogue, sharing information," Cherington said. "Jon and Seth have made good arguments for their position. We understand their position. We feel like we have good arguments for our position. "Our desire remains to keep him here past 2014. We weren't able to find something that worked for everyone during this Spring Training. So in the interest of allowing him to get ready for Monday, let the team get ready for Monday, we'll kind of hit the pause button and h ...

I'd like to see one more strong BAT, but realize that they might acquire that bat on July 31st.
The Turn around Architect Ben Cherington —DougMost 'The Boston Globe' - 2013-12-22 It's your second year running the company. Your first year was a disaster. You took charge of an organization you grew up idolizing in New Hampshire but that was reeling from an ugly scandal. With the stench of that mess still festering, you hired an outsider, a new leader who talked a good game but merely proceeded to turn the smell of horse manure into the smell of boiled cabbage. Desperate, you got rid of three stars who were grumpy and overpaid, and you fired the new manager after just one year. By now the fans who used to love this company, who used to cheer it through the summer and pay it more attention than they paid their own children, hate it. And they're vowing to boycott it. Your job is on the line. So what do you do? You hire a group of less talented but hungrier and cheaper workers who promise to do whatever you want. You put your faith in team players, and you trust your proven performers to lea ...
Ben Cherington, Boston Red Sox Executive Vice President and General Manager, talks to Power Alley about the impact of losing Jacoby Ellsbury and hi...
In the fantasy world inside my head, the Yankees signed Ellsbury, and probably will end up signing Drew (I see Drew at 2 years for 21 Mil), what with the weakness inherent in their infield. Meanwhile John Henry and Ben Cherington has teamed up with Scott Boras in a double secret probation style circumstance, where both of them still hold allegiance to the SOX and will quietly and inconspicuously tank at their respective positions.
Red Sox manager John Farrell called the departure of Jacoby Ellsbury to the Yankees a jolt after the thrill of winning the World Series. But it was not unexpected. Ellsbury had steadfastly refused all entreaties to sign an extension with the Red Sox and entered free agency at a time when baseball is awash in revenues. That Ellsbury went to New York was a bit of a surprise. But if not the Yankees, it would have been another team. "When you get into free agency with a player of Jacoby's caliber, you know going in that there's probably a handful of spots where he could end up," General Manager Ben Cherington said Wednesday. "Certainly New York is always going to be one of those potential spots. "We wish Jacoby well. He was obviously a really good player here in Boston. During the time he was here, he was a big part of two World Series teams. We would have loved to keep him. But we felt like there was an area, a range, we were willing to go to and the market just got past that." That range was a ...
Boston Red Sox GM Ben Cherington says it's 'not altogether surprising' Jacoby ...
*** you John Lackey for redeeming yourself. This is really hard for me to say. Very, very hard for me to say... You're still an overpaid *** But I like you now. Theo Epstein, you're still overrated, but thanks for building this core so Ben Cherington can now take the praise for the 2013 World Series. Now you know how Dan Duquette feels. I've been a fan of Koji since he came over with Baltimore, and hopefully he can come back for one more year. Boo all you Jon Lester haters. Told you he was an ace. Have fun out west Ellsbury, you're up again Jackie Bradley, possibly with Matt Garza and Curtis Granderson. The latter a possibility if there's a chance today was Ortiz's last game. But great year for the Sox. Let's get 'em next year.

The Yankees have a five-year, $85 million deal in place with catcher Brian McCann. The deal includes a vesting option for a sixth season worth $15 million and a full no-trade clause. The Rangers and Rockies were players for McCann until the Yankees wrapped him up. For the Yankees, McCann will be a significant upgrade over Chris Stewart and Austin Romine. McCann, who turns 30 in February, hit .256 with a .796 OPS last season. The Red Sox were involved with the negotiations for McCann but did not approach that level of commitment according to major league sources. With Carlos Ruiz and McCann off the market, the Sox still have plentiful options for a catcher. They remain engaged with Jarrod Saltalamacchia, their primary catcher last season and now a free agent. Saltalamacchia is seeking a three-year contract but the Red Sox would prefer two. A.J. Pierzynski and Dioner Navarro also are free agents. Or they could pursue a trade, something General Manager Ben Cherington has hinted at. That McCann had a deal wit ...

"Red Sox GM Ben Cherington has acknowledged teams are inquiring about their rotation depth, but the Boston Herald's Michael Silverman notes there's an element missing from the starters' equation: a potential ace in his mid-20s. Silverman believes it will be close to impossible to acquire such a pitcher through trade or free agency, so the best bet is an internal option. Henry Owens, the 36th overall selection in the 2011 amateur draft, tops Silverman's list of future homegrown aces, as the 21-year-old left-hander posted a 2.67 ERA, 11.3 K/9, and 4.5 BB/9 in 135 innings (26 starts) across Boston's Class A Advanced and Double-A levels." source: MLBTradeRumors

This is Ben Cherington's off-season and the rest of us are just living in it. Boston's Baseball Baby Einstein is playing it cooler than Mike Napoli strolling shirtless through the Back Bay with a heater in his mouth on a Saturday night.
C'mon, Red Sox fans, we're playing with house money here, championship-wise. Anyone who wants Ellsbury for over $20 million per year or wants to give him a six-year contract, you're welcome to the next coming of Carl Crawford. The Rangers want Napoli...Oh pleze take him...and maybe we'll go grab the better bargain, James Loney (who proved he can play in the AL East last year). And anyone who wants to give Stephen Drew more than 3-4 years for absurd money, sold! Now, I want to see Ben Cherington, who proved he can find bargain basement specials and unload ridiculous contracts, prove he's GM-Triple Threat and make the kind of Great Trade that brings a young, consistent slugger (a Giancarlo Stanton) to town.
Koji Bamba - You asked about what's going on in baseball during the off season. This week, the following awards were given out: Exec. of the yr - Ben Cherington from the Red Sox; Rookie of the Yr - Meyers (AL) and Martinez (NL); Cy Young - Scherzer (AL) and Kershaw (NL); Manager of the Yr - Terry Francona; MVP - Cabrera (AL) and McCutchen (NL).

Just posted... the "Quiet Man" article by WCVB's Mike Lynch. Lynch writes articles exclusively for the VHL every month. Check out his latest piece about Ben Cherington.
Red Sox General Manager Ben Cherington disputed a report by ESPN Boston that shortstop Stephen Drew will not return to the Red Sox. "That's not something I've been told," Cherington said as he left the GM and Owners Meetings at the J.W. Marriott Grande Lakes. "We're still talking with him and we'd like to have him back. We'll see what happens." On Wednesday, agent Scott Boras said that Drew "very much enjoyed" his time in Boston and would consider opportunities to stay. He, too, said no decision had been made. Drew is seeking a multiyear contract, something the Red Sox would prefer to avoid. But because Drew was tendered a qualifying offer by Boston, signing him could cost another team its first-round draft pick. That could dampen the market for Drew and perhaps lead to a return to Boston. Source: Boson.com

ALCS, again.(The Sox may have six competent starters under contract for next season -- Jon Lester, Clay Buchholz, Jake Peavy, John Lackey, Felix Doubront and Ryan Dempster -- but GM Ben Cherington told MLB.com's Ian Browne that he doesn't envision trading one of them this winter.)
Ben Cherington laid out his blueprint for the Red Sox offseason
Congratulations to Ben Cherington and John Farrell for the jobs they did this year.
Yankees GM Brian Cashman says he will congratulate Red Sox GM Ben Cherington at the Winter Meetings in December, Anthony McCarron of the New York Daily News reports. Cashman says he texted Cherington before the World Series, adding, "I was rooting for them and thought they were the team to beat." Cashman notes, however, that the stress of the offseason means that Cherington won't have much time to enjoy his organization's accomplishment. "As GM, you don't have time to enjoy it long," says Cashman. "The work starts again right away." Source:
Thank you Ben Cherington for not making that Lester for Wil Myers deal.
INSIDE PITCH HIGH HEAT: Congratulations to the World Champion Boston Red Sox - Now get back to work, it's Hot Stove season! What does Ben Cherington need to do to get the Sox BACK to the World Series NEXT season? And what does Cardinals GM John Mozeliak need to do in the off-season to avenge this World Series loss in 2014?
What a year! Proud day being a Red Sox Fan! David with this 3rd, Pedroia, Lester, Buchholz, and Ellsbury with their 2nd, and another championship especially thanks to Napoli, Gomes, Uehara, Victorino, Lackey, and the entire 2013 Red Sox! Also to John Farrell, Ben Cherington and Larry Lucchino Ortiz and Lester are both worthy of the World Series MVP. Now after my Calc 2 test tomorrow, life can return to normal. GO Red Sox!
I know this probably isn't the time for reason, but I'm here to keep it REAL Red Sox fans. 1) St. Louis' pitcher tonight is ehhh...average. We will win tonight's game, so there's still a 50% chance we could win this series. 2) Stephen Drew, Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Matt Thornton.3 wastes of space, will be ancient history next year. I know NO ONE wants to hear this right now, but simply playing Middlebrooks, Bogaerts & Lavarnway all year makes this team 25% better. It's important to remember...this team has way overachieved. 3) St Louis has shown Ben Cherington what he needs: A flame thrower for the pen, a flame throwing starter and a bopper that can hit for average too
John Mozeliak needs to call up Ben Cherington as soon as this season is over and try and swap Matt Carpenter for Dustin Pedroia. Just so I can hear Pedey walk up to Still Dre when I go to Busch...
I want to apologize to Ben Cherington. This past off season I was very upset that he didn't deal Jon Lester to KC for Will Myers and other top prospects. It seemed obvious to me that the Red Sox were rebuilding this year. Jon Lester just won game 1 of the World Series. That is why Ben is running the Red Sox and I run a store and events. I hope Ben runs the Red Sox for a long time.
Fact: Jon Lester beat cancer. Ben Cherington traded it to Los Angeles.
Great game last night as the Red Sox advance to the 2013 World Series.! Young Red Sox fans are spoiled. Good for them:)) 3 trips in 9 years! Steroids era baseball is now gone. Pitching and defense back! Tigers series decided on three swings of the bat: Big Popi, Napoli and Victorino! Manny Ramirez should be acknowledged for his greatest gift to the Red Sox:) He brought us David Ortiz, before he was Big Popi in Red Sox Nation, at Fenway, in Boston: "Our 'bleeping' city." Ben Cherington brought us the new players: Nice work!! The Tiger starters-in-waiting do make a great in-game interview:) Max Scherzer is great and deserves the Cy Young, and it had to be painful to be him, again, last night as his bullpen let him down. BostonStrong was simply not to be denied, of course:)) But, if you can beat the Tigers with their starting pitching, grinding them down and out of the game, you can beat anyone.including the Cardinals!! Go Red Sox:)))
Ok, we have to acknowledge that Ben Cherington is the best gm since Bill Dewitt. Hope he can one day trade Frank Robinson 2.0 to Baltimore.

Alex Speier of WEEI.com looks at how the Red Sox are getting ready for the trade deadline at the end of this month. While they'll look to upgrade when a deal makes sense, they'll also try to keep things in-house where ever possible. "We've had some turnover at [third base] and in [the bullpen]," GM Ben Cherington said, "but right now we believe there is a good chance the solutions are internal. We'll keep an eye out in these areas and any other that crops up between now and the deadline." Source: MLBTradeRumors.com
The Red Sox have a long list of prospects that other teams would be interested in: Xander Bogaerts, Bryce Brentz, Jackie Bradley Jr., Matt Barnes, Garin Cecchini, Rubby De La Rosa, Will Middlebrooks, Henry Owens, Anthony Ranaudo, Blake Swihart, Christian Vazquez, Allen Webster and Brandon Workman. Outside of Owens and Swihart, all are at Double A or above and therefore close to being major-league ready. Obviously some of these guys are untouchable. But all 13 aren't going to be productive major leaguers, either. It's a matter of figuring out who is expendable. The Red Sox need pitching help and and Ben Cherington has the chips to make some interesting offers. But it's important to remember that the long-term success of the franchise has to be rooted in player development. The Red Sox ended up in last place because they relied too heavily on free agency. • Outside of Bogaerts, is there anybody you absolutely would not trade? Source: Boston.com
FORT MYERS, Fla. Tim Duncan Swingman Jersey . -- Pedro Martinez might have been the most popular person in a Red Sox uniform during the teams morning workout Monday. The former ace has rejoined the organization that was the beneficiary of most of his glory days as a special assistant to General Manager Ben Cherington. Martinez, who turned 41 in October, has not pitched since 2009, his final season with the Phillies. He last played for the Red Sox in 2004, when he helped them to their first World Series championship in 86 years. "Its weird," he said of putting on the uniform again. "But it feels like the first day to me. I get so excited to just be part of this team and be part of the tradition that we have here." Martinez won two of this three Cy Young Awards while with the Red Sox. In his seven seasons in Boston, he went 117-37, a .760 winning percentage, with a 2.52 ERA. The time was right, he said, to come back. He will be working with the major and minor league pitchers this season and expects to b ...

FORT MYERS — Red Sox General Manager Ben Cherington did a good job this offseason. He blended a repertory company of solid, professional, "good clubhouse guys" with the survivors of the Bobby Valentine era, and in doing so he didn't have to give up any of the organization's top minor league kids.
From Bleacher Report by Douglas Sibor... "While GM Ben Cherington told The Boston Globe's Peter Abraham last week that Salty will once again be the Sox's starting catcher, that doesn't mean the team will stop fielding offers for him. While having a catcher who can hit 25 home runs is a huge plus, it does not make him untradeable. Saltalamacchia has many deficiencies at the plate; namely, he strikes out far too often (139 last season) and doesn't get on base nearly enough (.288 OBP). His defense is solid, but unspectacular. If a starting pitcher goes down and/or Ryan Lavarnway looks strong in Pawtucket to start the season, the Sox's catcher may be one of the first to go." Just when Salty fans are starting to relax and get excited about the 2013 season, leave it to Bleacher Report to stir the trade pot and rain on the parade. Bear in mind Bleacher Report is about half reporting and half opinion. It is true that the Sox keep saying that Ryan Lavarnway is going to be a good player for them "for a lo ...
By Ellie Musgrave – Monday February 11 2013 VENICE— Shortly after resigning from the Popedom this morning, His Holiness Benedict XVI received a call from Ben Cherington, GM of the Boston Red Sox. The non-denominational American baseball team has faced more than its fair share of tough seasons, explained Cherington, and after hours of deliberation among the front office, they decided to "shoot for the moon" with their new management choice. "You've got to understand, someone big has to make up for our last manager," says John Farrell, a former pitcher who was scheduled to manage the team for the upcoming 2013 season. Farrell is referring to Bobby Valentine who, after functionally driving the team into the ground by trading beloved stars like Kevin Youkilis and Josh Beckett and failing to understand the importance of player order, was noted as "the worst person ever" by ESPN. The public seems to agree—in a matter of milliseconds, Google will auto-complete the phrase "Bobby Val ...

Poor pitching was at the heart of Boston's disappointing 2012 season. The team's closer, Andrew Bailey, injured his thumb in spring training and did not pitch again until August. Alfredo Aceves struggled to take his place. Meanwhile, the starters alternated between injuries and inconsistency. The result was a staff that surrendered 806 runs, the highest total among the five American League East clubs. Boston ranked 12th out of 14 AL teams and 27th out of 30 MLB teams in runs allowed. While the staff was poor on the road, they were dreadful at Fenway. Boston ranked 9th out of 14 AL teams in runs allowed on the road, but they were DEAD LAST in runs allowed at home. The Sox will feature some new faces on the mound for 2013, mostly in the bullpen, where the injury to Bailey and the ineffectiveness of Daniel Bard left gaping holes in 2012. GM Ben Cherington moved quickly to shore up the relief corps this offseason, but finding quality starting pitchers is not so easy. With pitchers and catc ...

Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, and Liam Hemsworth, the Francis Lawrence-directed The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, is expected to collect anywhere between $63-$70 million (according to Nikki Finke) and $67.5 million (according to Deadline.com) at 4,163 North American locations on Friday, November 22, 2013. That figure includes an estimated $25.25 million from Thursday evening shows, as found at Box Office Mojo. (Saturday update: Catching Fire opened with an estimated $70.5 million. See also: "'Catching Fire' Weekend Box Office: Poised to Surpass 'New Moon,' 'The Hunger Games'?")
Early, unofficial weekend estimates have the second installment in the Hunger Games movie franchise grossing anywhere between $140-$150 million in the U.S. and Canada by Sunday evening. Some early prognosticators had Catching Fire soaring much higher, up to Iron Man 3 heights ($174.14 million, with the advantage of 3D surcharges). Now, the Big Box Office Questions:
- Will Catching Fire break the November box office record that currently belongs to The Twilight Saga: New Moon?
- Will Catching Fire surpass the opening weekend box office take of the first The Hunger Games movie?
Domestic box office: 'Catching Fire' vs. 'New Moon,' 'The Hunger Games'
Chris Weitz's The Twilight Saga: New Moon, starring Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner collected $142.83 million (including Thursday midnight only screenings) at 4,024 venues in late November 2009. There's a very good chance that Catching Fire will surpass that figure. Now, before you buy into the usual "box office record-breaker" hype: a) Catching Fire had the advantage of Thursday evening shows and b) adjusted for inflation, New Moon took in approximately $151 million.
And that leads us to The Hunger Games, which debuted with $152.53 million (including midnight only screenings) at 4,137 theaters in mid-March 2012. If early Friday estimates for Catching Fire are on target – in the $63-$70 million range – barring a relatively major Saturday surge and solid Sunday hold, the sequel will fail to pass the $150 million mark by Sunday evening. Note: The Hunger Games had one advantage over Catching Fire, namely that it was released during spring break, when many students throughout the U.S. were free to attend early Friday shows.
If – and that's a big if at this stage – Catching Fire doesn't surpass the domestic opening of its predecessor, Lionsgate Pictures will likely be disappointed however excellent the actual box office figures. After all, sequels are supposed to outperform the original movies – not to mention the fact that whereas The Hunger Games cost a reported $78 million (plus $43 million in marketing and distribution costs), Catching Fire's production budget alone was a reported $130 million.
Now, having said that, Lionsgate undeniably has a gigantic hit in its hands, not only in North America but also internationally, where Catching Fire is far surpassing the initial box office take of The Hunger Games. (See also: "'Catching Fire' Box Office: 1 Million Tickets Sold But 'Breaking Dawn - Part 2' Record Safe in Brazil.")
Official Friday estimates come out on Saturday. Weekend box office estimates will be released on Sunday. Weekend box office actuals come out on Monday.
Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth topline 'Catching Fire' movie cast
Besides Jennifer Lawrence (soon to be seen with Bradley Cooper in Serena and a Best Actress Oscar winner for David O. Russell's Silver Linings Playbook), Josh Hutcherson (Annette Bening and Julianne Moore's son in The Kids Are All Right), and Liam Hemsworth (Miley Cyru's leading man in The Last Song; Sylvester Stallone's young bud in The Expendables 2), The Hunger Games: Catching Fire features Sam Claflin (Snow White and the Huntsman), Best Actor Academy Award winner Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote), two-time Oscar nominee Woody Harrelson (The People vs. Larry Flynt, The Messenger), and Best Supporting Actor Oscar nominee Stanley Tucci (The Lovely Bones).
In addition to the following: Jena Malone, Willow Shields, Elizabeth Banks, Alan Ritchson, Amanda Plummer, Toby Jones, Lynn Cohen, Jack Quaid, Taylor St. Clair, Nelson Ascencio, Sandra Ellis Lafferty, Jeffrey Wright, and Lenny Kravitz.
Screenwriters Michael Arndt (Little Miss Sunshine, Oblivion) and Simon Beaufoy (The Full Monty, Slumdog Millionaire) were credited for the Catching Fire adaptation. The film is based on Suzanne Collins' bestselling novel.

HONOLULU (AP) - Members of the state Board of Education on Tuesday questioned the cost and benefit of following a consultant's recommendations and overhauling Hawaii's student transportation program.
Management Partnership Services was hired to review the state busing system amid concerns about rising costs. The consultant found that the system needs substantive changes.
In its report, it cited problems with procurement rules and contracting, noting that the cost of school bus contracts has risen sharply since 2006. It also cited poor training of the state staff overseeing the nearly $70 million program. The consultant said a multiyear commitment to change would be necessary, and that it believed both the state and the Department of Education are "committed and able to undertake this critical transformation."
A department spokeswoman on Monday said the department will have to determine what changes it believes can be implemented and the board will have to approve any changes. Legislative approval would be needed for any procurement changes. The next legislative session opens in January.
During a Board of Education meeting Tuesday, several board members said they felt pressure to find a solution, given the public attention to the problem, but there were questions about how successful - and realistic - the consultant's approach was. Uncertain, too, is the cost of implementation.
Tom Platt, president of Management Partnership Services, said his firm lays out the ideal for its clients, and those clients see success with the recommendations they follow. He said he's never seen a situation where investing in management has failed to yield dividends.
The report followed a highly critical state audit that found that the department had "lost control" of the busing program and "ineffective and unsystematic" management had resulted in soaring costs.
Board member Wesley Lo said this may be a situation that calls for incremental rather than "revolutionary" change. He questioned how fast the Legislature could move to make changes to state laws and procurement rules - and whether legislation could be drafted to be taken up in the coming session.

Focus of the approach is the manner in which individuals construct meaning rather than the way they behave. The narrative approach is incompatible with systems thinking.

In narrative therapy, Functions like a unique outcome. It is a time that family members have had influence over the problem. "when is a time that you had more control over this issue?"
rhetorical questions
Designed to elicit specific response to help people see they are separate from and have power over the problem. "Was the way you handled it more or less effective?"
story development questions
Build the story from the unique outcomes. "How will you know when this new story has begun to play out for you?"
reauthoring (or meaning) questions
Designed to challenge negative self images and emphasize positive agency. "What does this tell you about yourself that is important for you to know?"
questions that extend the story into the future
Support growth and development. "How do you see this working out for you during the next six months?"
(postmodern in general) Therapist and client working together to develop a different view of the problem--as they develop new meanings, clients develop new ways of resolving problems.

Roster Update: As predicted in the Astros series preview, Jeanmar Gomez was sent back to AAA after struggling in Houston. For the time being Scotty Barnes has been called up and will be used in the bullpen, but Zach McAllister is scheduled to take his place this Thursday in Baltimore. Gomez started the season out playing well as almost every other starting pitcher struggled, but he has fallen off some as of late as the other pitchers are starting to come around.
Barnes will be looking to make up for his last outing as he gave up 5 runs while only recording one out. He was solid in all his other relief appearances for the Indians and has played well for the Clippers as well, so it should turn out that that one outing against Cincinnati was an aberration and not what to expect from the real Scott Barnes.
Player of the Game
Esmil Rogers won his first Player of the Game of the year as he an inning and a third and only allowed one more batter than the minimum. Rogers struck out two and stranded a runner at third when he first came in the game. His final score was 1.78. In fact, every member of the bullpen that pitched tonight had a score over one, but it wasn't enough to overcome Josh Tomlin's score of -9.08.
Feathers Up
Scott Barnes pitched well as he threw 2.2 innings in long relief after Josh Tomlin was removed from the game early. Barnes gave up a single run, but struck out three and only gave up one hit.
Feathers Down
Going into this game Michael Brantley had only a single hit against the Yankees and Josh Tomlin had never given up a home run to a Yankee hitter. Neither of those are true anymore. Thanks to the Yankees announcers at YES for repeating these things over and over during the first 3 innings.
Casey Kotchman had a bad night tonight, mostly noticeable because the players ahead of him had slightly better games. Kotchman went 0-4 with 3 runners stranded in scoring position. He also ended the game with an easy ground out.
Play of the Game
Casey Kotchman had a slick looking double play.
Final Score: Cleveland Indians 1 – New York Yankees 7

Seniors protest end of food-voucher program
Published 5:37 PM CST Dec 06, 2012
"Don't take our food" was the call from a group of Milwaukee seniors at the Clinton Rose Senior Center on Thursday.
They are angry about the end of the Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program.
That means 3,300 seniors will not get a $25 voucher for fresh vegetables next summer.
"You can only buy Wisconsin-grown produce with that voucher. As a result, the farmers are not going to get paid, either. That's $15 million (in) losses for farmers, as well," said Sherrie Tussler of the Hunger Task Force.
The voucher program was part of farm bill Congress did not renew.

On its 10th anniversary, the Northern Ohio Sprint Car Show at Tiffin Mall is getting a new twist - an American Cancer Society Relay for Life Family Fun Night is joining the show this weekend.
The Family Fun Night is 6-10 p.m. Friday, and the car show continues during regular mall hours through Sunday.
"Actually, the partnership with Relay for Life happened quite by accident," Steve Hartzell, car show coordinator, said. "The mall scheduled two events on the same night."
After a conference between Hartzell and Relay for Life coordinator Deb Hilborn, they decided to have both events together.
"I think it'll enhance both of them" Hartzell said. "One will help promote the other. It's a well-known fact that people who race are very generous with their money, too."
"I think it's a really great thing we can do together," Hilborn said.
"I told her, 'Be ready because you're going to sell a lot more food,'" Hartzell said.
Hilborn said Family Fun Night is to feature area Relay for Life teams offering fundraisers such as food sales, raffles, a 25-cent auction, children's activities, a bake sale, as well as information on how to volunteer, buy luminaries or participate in the Bark for Life.
She said music will be provided by Spotlight Music Entertainment and Aaron Smith.
The organization is to sell daffodils as part of its annual Daffodil Days. A potted mini-daffodil is $12, a bunch is $10 and a vase full is $15. A "Bear and Bunch" is $25.
"We'll also be promoting Project Care, in which people can purchase one the exclusive Boyd's Bears (for $25) from previous years and we would deliver them to children at various hospitals," she said.
Hartzell said more than 30 race cars are expected to take part in the show.
"The majority of them are sprint cars," he said. "There's going to be a good-sized group of vintage race cars, too."
People can walk through and see the cars, and there will be some vendors selling racing-related items.
"This is known to be one of the better of the mall-based spring car shows in this part of the country," he said.
The Hoserville Ohio benefit auction is to take place Sunday.
"Their purpose is help injured drivers from Ohio or injured in Ohio," he said. "Sometimes when they're hurt on the racetrack they can't work anymore either so this helps."
Items on the auction include body parts from some of the "better-known" cars, NASCAR memorabilia and lots of racing-related merchandise.
Hartzell said he used to attend a similar show at the mall more than 10 years ago. After an absence of a year, he discovered the coordinator was no longer running the show.
After some encouragement from a relative, he decided to take on the task.
"And I've been doing it ever since," he said. "This is my part in promoting the outstanding vehicles at Attica Raceway and Fremont Speedway.
"They are two of the most highly-respected sprint car racing facilities in the country," he said.
Both tracks help sponsor the show, so admission is free.
"A lot of the drivers will be on hand off and on, standing by their cars," Hartzell said. "Sometimes they even let kids get in and out of their race cars."
He said every racing team does something different, whether they promote the sponsors that help pay their way, or provide their own give-away items to fans. Some sell T-shirts.
"We pretty much fill the mall from one end to the other," he said. "For most, if not all, of those 10 (years) this has been the most-attended event for the Tiffin Mall."
The show attracts people from the entire area.
"Half or better of the people are people who live in Tiffin," he said.
Because some of the mall stores have closed that were available to provide refreshments, Hartzell said the Relay for Life teams will be providing a service.
"It's going to raise money for an excellent cause while we're at it too," he said.

The reverberations of the blockbuster billion-dollar deal announced this week that Vail Resorts purchased Whistler Blackcomb are already starting to be felt, both by skiers and other resort operators. "The competitive environment just went up a full notch," says Andy Wirth, President and CEO of Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows in California's Lake Tahoe basin, where three Vail Resorts ski areas already operate.
No fear. Sure, it was a cheesy clothing brand in the '90s, but it sums up Whistler in two simple words. It began with its founders, who hacked for days through coastal rainforest and swamp just to get to the bottom of a 6,000-foot behemoth, and endured unto Intrawest, which brilliantly predicted that high-speed lifts to the top of snow-pummeled peaks would, in the end, let them sell opulent timber-frame weekend chalets for millions a pop.
