Brett Myers has agreed to be optioned to AAA Lehigh Valley, according to the Phillies.
Myers is 3-9 with a 5.84 ERA this season. He was the Opening Day starter. From GM Pat Gillick:
"I can't say enough about Brett's willingness to accept this assignment. He understood and is eager to get back on track again. He is struggling right now, but he is a quality major league pitcher who we are going to need in the second half of the season.
"The idea was something that Ruben [Amaro], Charlie [Manuel], Rich [Dubee] and I talked about the last couple of days. We just felt it was the best situation for Brett. This way he can continue being a starting pitcher. We discussed it with Brett and his agent and we all came to a meeting of the minds."
Myers will start Wednesday night for the IronPigs against the Scranton Wilkes-Barre Yankees. A decision on his replacement is also expected tomorrow.
Tim Malcolm: The best move, really. Myers needs to regain his stuff and composure, and the team needs to press forward in the heat of a playoff race. Good on Myers for accepting the demotion, as well. As a veteran player he could've denied it. His replacement should be James Happ, who has looked sparkling lately for the IronPigs. As for Brett, he needs to get back on the horse. Give him a couple starts down there, let him find his way.
0 Comments
Wow! I think this was the best possible solution, next to putting him on the DL with an "injury." If the Phillies would have moved him to the bullpen, they would have been giving in to him and his stubborn, childish ways. Hopefully this fixes his issues.
Thats very grown-up of Brett to accept that assignment. Looks like its down to Carrasco or Happ
good job Brett. let's hope this helps. Happ is the man!
YOu guys misinterpret my rants sometimes i think. Im not saying dont root for them and tune them out. THeyll be in it, itll be exciting, theyll probly be in the playoffs. But you saw the gap during interleague play. They cant make up that gap at the trade deadline, its just too much.
Thank goodness myers is out. He was unwatchable.
Good for Brett, hopefully he turns it around (either in the rotation or the pen). The Phils now have to make their first pitching roster move of the season, and it's JULY. Talk about being fortunate with injuries.
I forgot about Lidge being activated for the 4th game of the season, but the Phillies have used the same 12 pitchers all year.
I STILL, despite everything I said today, maintain my prediction that they will win the division. despite all negative statements about blowing up the team in the offseason.
Excellent news and, as Geoff says, very mature of Brett to accept the assignment. His focus in Lehigh Valley should be: command, command, command.
Why wait till Wednesday for the decision? Happ should be called up right now.
Myers IS totally unwatchable right now. I was at his last start (yes I'm a phils fan living in Texas), and watching him blow a 4 run lead was killer on my weak stomach.
Its got to be Happ… Carrasco is starting to get hit around a little bit at Reading.
How far away is Benson from coming up?
With off day yesterday, the phils can skip myers start, thus getting 4 more days until they need someone so they could take more time to make the decision.
benson is an average pitcher at best when 100 percent healthy.
even if he comes back he wont be 100 percent, so he will only be able to giv eyou 4 or 5 innings of below average perforance..
I can't say enough about Brett's willingness to accept this assignment
I think Gillick and everyone else is giving Myers too much credit. All he's done is the simple, decent thing anyone should be expected to do at their job for the sake of their co-workers. People don't deserve attaboys for doing what should be expected of them.
I'm shocked…….never in a million years did I expect them to do this. I figured they would send him to the pen and send Condrey out. When can you remember a veteran pitcher with this type of contract get sent down. Hell, even Eaton didnt get sent down last year.
Do you think that they gave him the option of going to AAA to work it out or going to the pen to be a mop up guy to work it out and he chose AAA? I cant imagine that they didnt give him an option.
I'm kinda bummed. I mean, this is supposed to be our #1. Hopefully it will open some eyes in the clubhouse. Hey Ryan, if you dont pick it up the iron pigs need a DH next week. wink wink.
Happ will be called up. he deserves the shot.
I suspect part of the reason Myers was so "willing" to go to AAA is that he has been part of trade rumors lately. He likely doesn't want to get traded, so he'll do whatever is asked of him.
I doubt that. I think he wants to be a starter or a closer and if going to AAA will help him find his stuff again then oh well.
The guy is struggling with confidence on the hill………is shipping his ass to Lehigh really going to give him a confidence boost? I think we've seen the last of Brett Myers in a Phillies uniform.
Finally there is a god watching over Philadelphian sports teams… It's the best scenario to stand a chance of an effective Brett Myers making an impact down the stretch altough Leigh Valley doesn't seem like the most positive environment for the guys we want to see at some point in Philly.
Does anyone know how we were able to make the move without placing him on the DL and then down for rehab assignments as his minor league options were surely over long ago?
With Gordon creaky lets just hope this isn't the point where we loose continuity in the pitching staff.
I'm shocked that Myers accepted this. He's a much bigger person than I gave him credit for.
Cudos to you Brett. I know it's a tough pill to swallow, but I think he realizes how serious his problems are. Hopefully he will break his mechanics and mindset back down to basics and FOCUS! If you look at the video of Brett celebrating the 1st place finish last year as opposed to the expression and the body language that we have seen so far this year – an absolute animal vs. a cupcake. Come on Brett get your focus back brother! Hit your spots consistently and you will be right back in the bigs! Go Phillies!
I hope that Myers can regain both his confidence and ability that he has shown in previous years. Once he can resolve the problems whether it's mechanics, contol or pitch selection, he can still be an asset to the Phillies in the second half. I commend him for accepting the option to the AAA club. He's doing it for what it's best for him and the team. He took the same position last season in accepting his role in the bullpen.
I'm betting on JA Happ to be his replacement when that is announced
Should he start or move to the bullpen for IPs? Based on his first half results, maybe he would be more valuable to the Phillies in the bullpen down the stretch…especially if Gordon's arm is getting tired.
Good attitude on his part to accept the demotion but I have to wonder if he will be able to return and contribute. Some of his issues are mechanical but much of his troubles are in his head. Anyone? remember Joe Cowley?
Where's Kyle Lohse when you need him?
So much being said about "willingness" to accept the assignment, but quite frankly who else would want him with the season he's been having? He's not a viable option for any halfway decent team at this point.
"Boom.. outta here"
Thanks. U just guaranteed us a win on Thursday.
Pingback: The case for J.A. Happ « Them's Good Eaton: Philly/New York sports with a "PC twist"
so happy he is outta there, i swear he gave up more homeruns in the first than any other starter, ever.
About time!!
I too was surprised that he was demoted but am happy. Charlie has once again taken control which in itself is impressive.
Next on the list? Who would be sad to see 'No Hit' Nunuez's replacement, Carlos Ruiz, go? After his average reached a season high of .230 in the earlier part of June, he has pretty much gone girly on us all. Carlos Ruiz needs to move on, down or out…. Perhaps Coste is not the everyday answer but Carlos certainly is not.
Carlos, you have had enough time to show us what you are capable of my friend.
Time to move on.
Who's going to Coca Cola Park tomorrow?
Good move. I hope Gillick also included the Lehigh Valley's best therapist in this package too. We need the old, wild, and excited to play (but not abusive!) Brett back.
"Where have you gone Brett Myers…Phillies Nation turns their lonely eyes to you…..wooohoo."
"your fastball's belt-high… and crushed-away……FARaway-ay-ay….ay-ay-ay"

Phillies Five Good Omens To Start Spring Training
Hope springs eternal for all 30 MLB teams this time of year. Spring is a time of rebirth, renewal and new beginnings. At the first crack of the bat, anything is possible.
For the Phillies, 2011 could be all that and more. The potential of this team is unlimited. But potential does not guarantee success, as execution and a little bit of luck will play a major role in the outcome.
However, the Phillies do have plenty of reasons to be hopeful. Here are five good omens for the Phillies as they begin spring training.
If you have not heard all about the Phillies starting rotation, you are probably living in a cave. The media frenzy in Clearwater, Florida is in full swing but luckily, the players are not buying all the hype.
In a press conference on Monday, all five starters, Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, Roy Oswalt, Cole Hamels and Joe Blanton, looked very relaxed. They were so laid back that if one of them had dozed off, it would not have been surprising.
And it would be hard to blame any of these guys for taking a cat nap while reporters asked Lee all the same questions he has been answering repeatedly since signing in December. It became so redundant that a media member actually asked him if he liked the food in Philadelphia. Lee responded with, "I like Philly cheese steaks, but that had nothing to do with me coming back to Philadelphia."
The fact that none of these pitchers take the attention too seriously is a very good omen for the Phillies. This rotation understands what it takes to win and how to avoid distractions, like ridiculous questions from baseball-starved reporters.
Their nonchalance in the face of all the hype is even more impressive when you add in the overwhelming talent and potential of this group which includes three Cy Young awards, 13 All-Star selections and three postseason MVP awards.
In short, things look very good for the 2011 Phillies pitching staff.
Jimmy Rollins Becomes An Early Bird
Known almost as much for his consistent lateness as his batting average, Jimmy Rollins has never been a timely guy. He is normally the last player to report to camp every year. But for the first time in his Phillies career, Rollins arrived early.
Not only did Rollins show up a full week early but he arrived in excellent physical condition as a result of a more disciplined off-season routine. At 32-years of age and entering a contract year, Rollins obviously realizes the importance of the 2011 season.
It is important for Rollins as an individual and also for the team as a whole. After a very bad, injury plagued 2010, J-Roll needs to get back to being the engine that makes this Phillies offense go.
Arriving early to camp is a good sign that he is ready to do just that.
Brad Lidge Is Healthy
In his first year with the Phillies in 2008, Brad Lidge threw just one pitch off the mound in Spring Training and just like that, he tore the meniscus in his right knee. Lidge recovered well from surgery and went on to pitch the best season of his career and help the Phillies win a World Championship.
But in 2009, Lidge had a complete reversal of fortune. By the end of June, Lidge had blown six saves and landed on the disabled list again with a sprained right knee. Lidge finished the year with season with an 0-8 record, an ERA of 7.21 and he converted 31 saves in 42 opportunities.
Lidge then spent most of the first half of 2010 on the DL after elbow surgery. And although he finished the season much improved from 2009, questions about his healthy still lingered.
This year, Lidge reported to camp healthy and raring to go. When asked about the upcoming 2011 season, Lidge responded, " Fans should be pumped up. I know I am."
And if Lidge can channel his 2008 form while avoiding injury, the Phillies will have the anchor they need at the end of the bullpen to help propel them to another post-season.
Versatility And Depth
The Phillies have a handful of players in camp that they feel can fill multiple roles. Last year, Wilson Valdez was a lifesaver filling in for injured players and short stop, second base and third base.
This spring, the Phillies have decided to try him out in centerfield as well, in case Shane Victorino goes down. With Jayson Werth off to the Nationals, options in center are slim and Valdez has a rocket for an arm.
John Mayberry Jr. is another player who could fill other roles. Normally an outfielder, Mayberry played first base in college and will see time there this spring to add to his versatility.
Delwyn Young, a non-roster invitee, might be another possibility. He has played infield and outfield, although the odds of him making the team are not very good.
Still, the fact that the Phillies have a number of viable options for their bench is a good thing. And their willingness to experiment, moving players around, means they have confidence in this group they have assembled.
Competition In Right Field
Competition is good. It breeds motivation. Players like Domonic Brown, Ben Francisco, John Mayberry Jr. and Ross Gload have plenty of motivation since the departure of Jayson Werth.
The huge, gaping hole in right field is theirs for the taking. It will be a matter of whoever plays the best wins. The starting spot could go to one player or maybe two in a platoon situation.
Brown is especially anxious to show what he is made of. After a less than inspiring major league stint at the end of 2010 and then a bad showing in the Dominican Winter League which he left early, Brown has something to prove.
Only three days after leaving the Dominican Winter League, Brown went straight to Clearwater to work on his swing. With the help of hitting coach Greg Gross, Brown found the flaw in his swing and has spent the last two months fixing it.
There is nothing like a little competition to bring out the best in a ball player. Each of the right field-hopefuls have their work cut out for them.

Definitely good start to Spring Training- all the signs are there indicating that barring unfortunate serious injuries, the Phillies should be back in the World Series. I'm a big fan of Brown, so I hope he wins the RF job outright. I am not, however, a fan of Valdez, who was okay, certainly in comparison to Castro, but I think a Michael Martinez (Rule 5) and Delwyn Young combination are better options than Valdez and Mayberry. Should be a fun spring, and a great season- can't wait until April 1.
Phillies Insight
Being happy is over-rated. Where's little Damien when I need him? Attention Phillies Phans…MLBlogs will be closing down. There is no more need for you to blog here. Sorry for the inconvenience. And the 2011 season is also here-by cancelled. Thank you; That is all.

Freedom New Mexico
Eastern New Mexico junior cornerback Rodney Mitchell has been selected to the first-team defense of the NCAA Division II Don Hansen 2009 Football Gazette All-America team.
Mitchell, from Sarasota, Fla., was one of three Lone Star Conference first-team selections. He tied for seventh in Divison II last season with seven interceptions, good enough to lead the LSC, and also led the league with 23 pass breakups while compiling 72 tackles.
Sophomore quarterback J.J. Harp was a third-team selection for ENMU, while junior linebacker Nathan Uland made the honorable mention list.
Harp, from Argyle, Texas, was recently dismissed from the program for violating university policy. He set school records with 4,367 total yards and 4,373 passing yards last season, setting numerous school and Division II records along the way.
Uland, from Denton, Texas, led the LSC and was fourth in Division II with an average of 12 tackles per game. He had 18 1/2 tackles for loss, three sacks, two forced fumbles and two blocked kicks, and reached double figures in six of the Hounds' 11 games.

On and off, the website of musician Hrvatski (born Keith Fullerton Whitman) has offered a free MP3 of the month, many of them key entries in the ongoing Disquiet Downstream setlist: lightly edited field recordings from overseas, live guitar experiments from dank clubs in random cities. A few months back, though, Hrvatski switched from downloads to streams, and posted on reckankomplex.com a massive streaming jukebox (click on the word "radio" when you visit), which as of last count had 75 tracks, many of them his own — lonesome, meandering drones; elliptical reflections on static and low-key noise; layered live-looping ditties — and others credited to celebrated peers, including Pimmon, Kim Cascone and Fennesz, among many. There's no annotation to speak of, and if you don't click off the "random playback" button the interface can be unintentionally unwieldy, but it's a rich trove. Dig in.

When the Philadelphia Phillies named Ruben Amaro Jr. as their General Manager, I had my doubts. The Stanford graduate has proved me wrong and has made some terrific moves in the eight months he has be GM. The Lee trade was the icing on the cake.
Here are his top 10 moves since becoming the Phillies GM:
10 ) Acquired John Mayberry Jr. from Texas in exchange for Greg Golson.
Time will tell about this speed for power deal. Mayberry has minimal playing time, but Mayberry is more likely to put up the better offensive numbers in the future, while Golson tallies the steals.
9 ) Released So Taguchi.
Two days after becoming the GM, Amaro made his first move. Taguchi batted .220 and had a .580 OPS while with the World Champion Phillies in 2008. The Chicago Cubs signed Taguchi to a minor league contract, but hasn't played in the majors since.
8 ) Signed Pedro Martinez.
Time will tell for this move, but it's not a bad deal on paper. The Phillies get a former Cy Young winner, and cheaper than expected. It's only one year, so it can't hurt.
7 ) Avoided arbitration with Shane Victorino, Chad Durbin, Ryan Madson and Joe Blanton.
Amaro didn't overpay any of them after each of them had a phenomenal 2008 season. Victorino: 1 year, $3.125M; Durbin: 1 year, $1.365; Madson: 3 year, $12 million; Blanton: 1 year, $1.475.
6 ) Released Adam Eaton.
This is self-explanatory.
5 ) Signed Ryan Howard to a 3-year deal.
Many believed Howard would go through arbitration every year, receiving more money each year until he reached free agency and offered Alex Rodriguez type money. This deal was a safe bet, eating out Howard's arbitration years. The contract is $54 million.
4 ) Signed Chan Ho Park.
Park was signed to a one year $2.5 million contract. Park earned his way into the rotation, but struggled. However, since joining the bullpen, Park is 2-1 with a 2.67 ERA. Opponents are batting .222 against him.
3 ) Signed Cole Hamels to a three year deal.
The reigning NLCS and World Series MVP was signed cheap; only $20.5 million for the course of three years. Hamels is having an off year, but he is still the Phillies ace and has showed signs of rebounding.
2 ) Signed Raul Ibanez.
Pat Burrell who? Ibanez is batting .305 with 26 home runs and 74 RBI. He has a 1.009 on-base plus slugging percentage.
1 ) Traded Lou Marson, Jason Donald, Carlos Carrasco, and Jason Knapp to Cleveland Indians for Cliff Lee and Ben Francisco.
This is a steal. The Phillies get the reigning Cy Young winner, plus a much need right-handed bat. The best prospects, Kyle Drabek, Dominic Brown, Michael Taylor and J.A Happ were not part of the deal, which is huge for the club's future.

Great article. RA a job well done. Now go get us The Doctor. Jays GM is backed against the wall. He's currently on "over the bridge" watch. This is a once in a life time opp. RA at least give it onbe more. Here's how the call would go. Ricc: Hello, RA: It's Amaro from the Phillies, RA: Yeah?? RA: Are u ok their man. Sounds like you've been crying. Kinda like TO when the Cowboys cut'em. Ricc: No, no I'm ok. RA: Have u found a buyer for Halladay. Ricc: No(sigh). Well how about this: JA Happ, Drabek and either Taylor or Mayberry. Ricc: Really(screams like a school girl)!. RA: Yes I' am dead serious. Ricc: Where do I sign? Ricc: Oh wait, I got to run this by my Sups 1st. Can I call u right back. RA: Two minutes and not a sec more. Ricc: I just got a great off from Philly for Doc. Jays: What? Who? Names…. Jays: Hell yeah. I would've gave them Doc for Moyer, Brunlett and Tyrone Hill(former Sixer).Call him back. Ricc: RA it's a done deal and hangs up. RA: I am now king of Phillies Nation.
Should be RA at least give one more try.
ha what.
we aren't getting Halladay lol, but it'd be great if we could trade Bruntlett and Bako for him 😉
I see what you're saying Keith. But again, we got a whole lot less for Schilling. I know Schill was unhappy and it drove the price way down. But the Jays can be had. The reports on TorontoSun.com say Halladay was devastated when word of Lee became official. He is being very proff and is trying to hide that. Again their GM is still in shock that RA got Lee so fast. Jays will move Doc in the last hour. RA said "no comment" when asked if the Doc deal was now off. Probably just a PR ploy to make other GM deplete their farm to get him. But you never know. Lee gets us even with other top 1/2 punches. Doc makes us the dominate 1-2-3 in baseball.
okay let's trade Bruntlett, Bako, Kendrick, Register, and maybe Lopez then. 😉
When a Jays beat writer asked Blue Jays Manager Cito Gaston "Now that the Phillies got Lee are u relieved that Doc will probably stay. Gaston: "I don't know. Maybe they'll come back and grab Doc too. Wouldn't that be something to see."
I like the way you think, Repeat! It won't happen, but it's a great thought!
4:23pm: Jack Curry of the New York Times has additional comments from Ricciardi on Halladay:
"We've got nothing going on. We expect him to be with us."
The Phillies are out, and the other suitors failed to wow Ricciardi.
I know the chances are pratically non-existent. But until 4:01 7/31/09 I'm going to dream that RA will make the move/s of the last generation and bring Doc to Philly.
If that's true, then why did the Jays have scouts watching D. Brown play yesterday?
Because they still had interest in trading with the Phillies and they already sent scouts out there, than they got word of the Cliff Lee deal?
In response to Repeat!'s comment about Halladay being shocked when he heard the news of the Lee trade, late last night (2am) watching MLBN, they showed alot of clips from Halladay's game. In the dugout after he was pulled, he did look REALLY down, shaking his head, almost looked like he could cry, and I don't think it was a reaction to his performance. I remember thinking, I wonder if he just heard about the trade, and he's bummed. I really felt sorry for him.
if we somehow landed halladay, i think my head would explode
Tonight's lineup in SF: Rollins SS, Utley 2B, Werth RF, Howard 1B, Ibanez LF, Francisco CF, Feliz 3B, Ruiz C, Lopez P.
cliff lee starts tom blanton sat and moyer sunday
haha, boxage, that would cause a multitude of explosions all over the place, it's just too much for a Phila fan to handle.
Vic out of lineup tonight, francisco playing center, batting 6th, according to csn.
I think with Cliff Lee on the team, the Phillies are assured of a playoff spot barring something disastrous.
So adding Halladay would just be for a short playoff series in which fluky things can happen.
I love Halladay, but the fact that the Phils have kept their future intact and STILL landed another ace is good enough for me.
No need to trade away the future just to upgrade from Blanton to Halladay in a short series.
But Halladay is awesome, so maybe…
Nice list. I say Raul is #1 until Lee proves his worth
Get greedy Jays are rip for the picking we can set the price play harball with them and see what happens
i think David Blaine is calling up Ruben Amaro after this trade and asking him how he performs a magic trick like that.
I also think Bernie Madoff is calling up Ruben asking him how he got so good at stealing.
Any way since Halladay is a dream now we can balance the rotation out with Bannister he is young cheap and under contract thru 2012 he might be a step above happ in the long run ant thoughts?
Yea, Raul has to be number one. The Lee deal we can see in like 2 years. When, Lee performed for us, and the prospects we gave up do not turn out to be good. It was good to lock up Howard ,but his average and averything have only gone down. Pedro is still a bum

Amanda, that's a cheap shot at Pat. He'll always be a Phillie and won't be forgotten around our house.
That was fun wasn't it. I feel like it's "Chritmas in July." Almost game time folks. Unfortunately I got Direct TV. So it's old school for me. A radio and a beer and a computer. Enjoy the game!
Lee will definitely by virture of league change and his stuff, do well for us to finish of the season but with following caveats;
as a fly ball pitcher his numbers at AL And NL hitter parks might make you wince..in particular Great American Ball Park which thankfully is in the rear view mirror. Until just last year, is numbers significantly suffered in the late months just about everyday. I haven't had time to really look behind this but it did vastly improve and was definitely a the difference maker in his cy young year. I can't help thinking that coming to our great clubhouse, being on a team that hits like the Indians use to, are play-off bound, sell out every night, reigning WS champs is just the right shot of adrenaline to ward of any fatigue for the rest of the year….
If any contender gets Halladay however and we have to face him its bad not just because he the league's best pitcher but he comes bearing two fists of Phillies kyrptonite: the sinkerball (his is considered the most deadly and in colder weather its that much worse) and 3 off-speed pitches tooled for lefties and righties: a nasty cutter, curve ball and change-up….To most teams he's a buzzsaw but to ours a woodchipper…remember derek lowe first game this year, Halladay sinker is more nasty than that. If for any reason to get him it just not to have to face him.
that's "late months just about every year." not everday
What's probably going to stop Rublen from pulling off a Halladay deal now, even for lesser talent than previously offered, is that the Phils brass would not like to absorb both Lee & Halladay's 2010 salaries and keep the key players on the team that are either arbitration eligible or free agents.
love #6. so true
show the rest of baseball that the Phillies don't need P.E.D's to win a championship…
i laughed when i saw adam eaton's thing haha

A Homer City man will be sentenced today for nine offenses related to a scuffle with an Indiana Borough police officer last summer. 23-year-old Alan Bailey was originally charged with ten offenses, but a felony count of aggravated assault was dropped. The nine remaining charges are misdemeanors or summary violations, to all of which Bailey pleaded guilty. Those charges include simple assault, resisting arrest, and fighting. Bailey struggled with the officer in July at the Indiana Regional Medical Center when police took him there for evaluation after he'd been found sleeping in a backyard on Church Street.
23-year-old Zachary Dill of Indiana will be sentenced today for assault charges stemming from an altercation in which he pulled a switchblade knife on a patron at Wolfendale's in Indiana last summer. When police arrived, Dill scuffled with them and he had to be subdued with pepper spray. He pleaded guilty to simple assault, recklessly endangering another person, and having an offensive weapon, all misdemeanors. Several other charges, including felony aggravated assault, were dropped.
Both Bailey and Dill are due before Judge William Martin for sentencing this morning.

Cars by German automaker Volkswagen AG stand parked in one of two towers at the Autostadt customer reception center at the Volkswagen factory on the day of VW´s annual press conference on March 11, 2010 in Wolfsburg, Germany. VW Chairman Martin Winterkorn admitted that VW had been affected by the worldwide financial crisis in 2009, though reported that many of VW´s brands reported growth, especially in China. VW customers who come to Wolfsburg to pick up their car in person receive their new car after a robot extracts the car from one of the two towers and brings it to them via an automated, underground transport system. Each of the two towers hold 400 cars.

Elkins man arrested for driving revoked for DUI
An Elkins man was arrested for allegedly driving after his license was revoked for DUI and is being held in jail on a $10,000 cash-only bond.
Mark Allen Shiflett, 43, was arrested on charges of third-offense driving revoked for DUI, a felony, Thursday.
According to the criminal complaint in the Randolph County Magistrate Clerk's office, at about 3:20 p.m., Cpl. M.S. Wetzel with the Elkins detachment of the West Virginia State Police was driving south on Randolph Avenue when he saw a 1999 black Pontiac Firebird pulling up to the Center Street intersection.
When Shiflett saw Wetzel, Shiflett allegedly placed his vehicle in reverse, backed down Center Street and pulled into an alley. He then climbed out of the vehicle and ran away. Wetzel's report states he had prior information indicating that Shiflett's driver's license was revoked for DUI. Wetzel obtained the information during a drug investigation in early April that resulted in Shiflett being charged with possession with intent to deliver a Schedule II controlled substance, cocaine, according to previous reports.
Sherry Shiflett, the passenger in the Pontiac Firebird, made contact with Shiflett and he eventually returned to the vehicle. Further investigation revealed it was the third time Shiflett has been caught driving while his license was revoked for DUI, the complaint alleges.
Magistrate George M. Riggleman set bond. As of presstime, Shiflett remained in the Tygart Valley Regional Jail.
Also in Randolph County Magistrate Court Friday:
-The case of Shaunna Yokum, 29, of Beverly, was bound over to Randolph County Circuit Court. Yokum was arrested in January on charges of child abuse causing injury, a felony, after she allegedly struck her child with a plastic coat hanger until it broke.

It's funny that you say non-believers think believers are simpletons right after you make a statement that atheists can't think. Did you ever think of my point of view? From my side, believers seem like the pompous ones telling me I'm evil and will go to hell and their way of thinking is the right way and everybody else's view is wrong (all without any evidence).
If you do want to debate, then provide an argument or claim. Then I will provide a counter argument with either evidence or philisophical questions of logic based on current evidence. Otherwise, keep your mouth shut on the subject.

"Excellent product"
"This product is a great help when we first get our calves shipped in or are having issues with scours. It mixes really easily and is perfect for mixing ""in bottle"" in a pinch. Calves take to it really well and it isn't a thick gel like some (which we have never really had much luck with). I raise A LOT of bottle calves and this is a MUST HAVE in my book. "

Perl 6 Tidings for November 2008
Permanent link
A couple of small improvements to the spec made me a bit happier this past week:
There's now a Nil
type. A
Nilrepresents the empty list, but unlike a normal
Listobject it is undefined in scalar context. It is returned by a bare
A cleanup
of the global variables added (among other things) a
$?VMvariable, which holds informations about the backend being used to execute some code. I like this very much because currently some tests use the unspecced
$?PUGS_BACKENDvariable, which of course breaks other implementions.
File test operators look like this in Perl 6
$filename ~~ :e. This used to boil down to calling the method
:ein class
Str, which was a bit messy, because colons are not part of an identifier, and thus :e wasn't really a valid method name. Now this is special-cased in the smart match operator instead, and the method is named without the colon.
The smart links in the synopsis documents at http://design.perl6.org/ now contains syntax hilighted code.
In his report to the TPF grant comittee Daniel Ruoso informed us about his work to integrate SMOP into Perl 5 by means of writing an XS module.
I'm not sure how much you can actually do with it right now, but it seems like an important proof-of-concept.
Jonathan and Patrick refactored Rakudo's handling of containers and values, to great success. This resulted in quite a few tickets being closed, and some more passing spec tests. Great work!
It's now also possible to define custom stringification routines for your classes (what's called "overloading" in Perl 5).
Last but not least, both Patrick Michaud and Jerry Gay received grants from Ian Hague's fanastic donation. Patrick will work on protoregexes and longest token matching (LTM) as well as the prerequisites to use external libraries (which is needed if you want to write the prelude in Perl 6 - guess what the plan is...).
(I've tried to explain the importance of LTM in this article, but I'm not sure if I succeeded. Anyway, it's essential for parsing Perl 6 correctly.

- Abstract
- The increasing demand and limited natural resources for industrially important platinum-group metal (PGM) catalysts render the recovery from secondary sources such as industrial waste economically interesting. In the process of palladium (Pd) recovery, microorganisms have revealed a strong potential. Hitherto, bacteria with the property of dissimilatory metal reduction have been in focus, although the biochemical reactions linking enzymatic Pd(II) reduction and Pd(0) deposition have not yet been identified. In this study we investigated Pd(II) reduction with formate as the electron donor in the presence of Gramnegative bacteria with no documented capacity for reducing metals for energy production: Cupriavidus necator, Pseudomonas putida, and Paracoccus denitrificans. Only large and close-packed Pd(0) aggregates were formed in cell-free buffer solutions. Pd(II) reduction in the presence of bacteria resulted in smaller, well-suspended Pd(0) particles that were associated with the cells (called "bioPd(0)" in the following). Nanosize Pd(0) particles (3-30 nm) were only observed in the presence of bacteria, and particles in this size range were located in the periplasmic space. Pd(0) nanoparticles were still deposited on autoclaved cells of C. necator that had no hydrogenase activity, suggesting a hydrogenaseindependent formation mechanism. The catalytic properties of Pd(0) and bioPd(0) were determined by the amount of hydrogen released in a reaction with hypophosphite. Generally, bioPd(0) demonstrated a lower level of activity than the Pd(0) control, possibly due to the inaccessibility of the Pd(0) fraction embedded in the cell envelope. Our results demonstrate the suitability of bacterial cells for the recovery of Pd(0), and formation and immobilization of Pd(0) nanoparticles inside the cell envelope. However, procedures to make periplasmic Pd(0) catalytically accessible need to be developed for future nanobiotechnological applications.

>General Running>Taking gels on long run a good idea?
CPT Curmudgeon
I've got a fever...
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
Runners run.
12 Monkeys
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Trying to hammer along with nothing to draw on is like a biological grinding of gears, and the "sparks" that fly take the form of proteins and stray muscle enzymes glutting the bloodstream in unwelcome amounts.
Needs more cowbell!
Using gels on runs longer than 1.5-2 hours or so has made a significant difference in my training. If anything, I'm starting to suspect that the opposite of the conventional wisdom is true: I think that by using gels regularly on long runs, I'm now seeing my body respond more efficiently on days when I'm not able to use gels.
That said, I'm not sure you need to be taking them 3 miles apart. If I were you, I'd take one before leaving the house and one at the halfway point. One key for me was learning how to time the gel so that I took it before actually feeling hungry. The directions on the box work pretty well for me (something like 15 minutes before a run, and every 45-60 minutes after).
• Do some dus...and some CX...and some tandem gravel...and some podiums...
• PRs
• 130#s (or less)
• Stop letting my core go to hell
To quote one of my favorite writers on the subject: Trying to hammer along with nothing to draw on is like a biological grinding of gears, and the "sparks" that fly take the form of proteins and stray muscle enzymes glutting the bloodstream in unwelcome amounts.
Bottom line: for optimum performance its always a good idea to keep your glycogen stores topped off.
I once tried to take a gel every 4 miles at a marathon.
It did not help.
Also Derek, find out what brand of gel the marathon will be handing out and give it a try. I found that some gels didn't sit in my stomach as well as others and decided to carry my own on a few half-marathons. From what I have read about the Chicago Marathon, they offer PowerGels.
How'd that make ya feel about mile 18-20?

Hot off the press: youth-led Manor Ink
Helper said she is "extremely proud and amazed" at how far the fledgling paper has come in just a short time. "A town newspaper seemed like a perfect vehicle to potentially engage a wide range of personalities and talents and provide an outlet for young adults with immediate, measurable results and impact. I wanted the kids to have a tool to empower themselves and reveal their worth to the community."
The youth plan to put out a monthly paper and will delve into the topic of bullying next. "It's fun working with everybody in the community," said Tyler. "We'll keep going as long as we can."
Copies of the premier issue are available at no cost at the library and at numerous other locations on Main Street. Contact email@example.com for more information. Manor Ink can also be seen on the web at www.manorink.com and at www.facebook.com/LivingstonManorInk.

Cheats and Walkthroughs(116)
Since everyone is talking about or playing or buying extra copies of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 right now, Adam couldn't let this week's Soapbox go by without talking about the controversial "Airport Scene" we've all been hearing so much about.
While this video is fairly light on spoilers, if you haven't finished the single-player campaign in the game, you might want to wait before you hear what the Sess has to say on the subject. That being said, how did playing through that scene make you feel? Or did you skip the level, expecting it to be gratuitous and offensive? Let us know what you think, but again, please keep the discussion intelligent and civil.
Update: Adam did not go on Fox and Friends. It was his decision, and it was due to scheduling.

Minor updates to the Nirvana 8 keep things humming for runners who want a protective, comfortable ride along with some road feel.
There's a lot to like about the Nirvana 8. Mizuno's premium moderate-support shoe, the Nirvana series is all about protection and smoothness, not the pillowy cushion you get with many other high-feature shoes in this category.
The Nirvana 8 has one of the tallest heels of any running shoe we carry. So it's not surprising that the heel feels substantial underfoot – testers labeled it "beefy," "bulky" and "built-up." Heel strikers liked the transition of the shoe less than midfoot strikers, but all appreciated the amount of road feel the shoe offered.
The fit received wide praise, with several testers commenting that they liked the snug heel and the placement of the laces. We're not quite sure that they achieved nirvana, but Mizuno has assembled an impressive set of technologies to wrap a runner's foot and keep you comfortable.
It's a Mizuno, so it delivers on its promise of a smooth ride. But it feels too bulky for my taste. At 155lbs, I think I am too light for this shoe.
While the heel felt comfortable in the Nirvana 8, the forefoot almost felt too cushioned, even for a runner looking for a plush ride.
When I midfoot strike in this shoe, the transition is seamless. I really like the tight heel collar, which anchors you in and gives you confidence.

Civil Disobedience Fish?
Well this week has been an interesting one in the Smokies
I was looking at quotes on Civil Disobedience on the internet and here are a couple I wish to share.
An individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for the law Martin Luther King
if we dont rebel, if were not physically in an active rebellion, then its spiritual death. Chris Hedges
This week has been a test for the frequent Smokies fisherman. Who to listen to?, what's exact activities are not suggested, and what is illegal to do? Mixed messages and mixed answers everywhere
Well last night I heard the best info yet from someone on the ground on GoSmokies who asked the ranger at gate what he would do if he hiked up past him up the hill. The ranger said he would watch him walk up the hill. But as long as you didn't move barricades or enter with a vehicle (bike considered a vehicle) you were free to do what you wanted. He even offered to get the head ranger on the radio or something like that. That was pretty good news as I was considering a trip regardless, although being a Smokies regular knew where to enter where are unlikely to have a problem.
Was able to round up Adam (Crockett) as well as Nathan for the trip. It was Adam's first time here and I think he was a little nervous although I knew he would be fine and had the skill set to be there. After meeting Adam off the interstate, he drove us through the tourist **** (PF) and over the mountain. We were pleased to see the bypass open and head to the Park
Things did look a bit different
Rebels everywhere using the pull off not barricaded. While the park does own many a barricade, they don't have enough to close off every spot
We were all confused to see the Park Service removing barricades from Newfound Gap. It was packed on the way back
Over the mountain we went. Should had hit the breakfast joint 30 minutes earlier. Longest wait ever, but was good to fill up for a big day. We finished and drove to my buddies house. I asked him if he had seen any Park Rangers but he just looked at me real funny. I don't think they come up his way very often.
This next picture is for Mac. I know he will appreciate the look on Adam's face. I know it's 400 vertical feet in 300 yards but that's the crazy guys house and I'm not stopping!
And no that's not a fallen tree, It's a vine!
Time to drop in
Almost there
And we made it!
And the close up for you old folks who can't read the small print
But honestly this was the reason we were here.
Will continue
It always nice sharing this place with someone for the first time
Adam sneaking up
Mortal Combat
And please forgive me for calling this granite in a previous post. I got busted by the Granite Police(apparently New Hampshire is full of them), and part of my penalty is to explain that you are looking at Biotite augen gneiss as well as some metasandstone.
Nathan's 4 fish hole (on both trips)
And one of my better rainbows
More of that granite (shock bracelet goes off) I mean Biotite augen gneiss
Nathan thought he heard a Park Service helicopter above and signaled them for landing.
Adam caught the best Brookie of the day
Here Nathan fishes an awesome pool that is too big for one picture
Above is Nathan pointing out the half dozen large fish at the bottom of the pool that won't come up to even give a fly a close inspection.
Lots of climbing
A beautiful scene with Nathan's Razorback in the backround
And the intended species
We thought we saw the grade above and thought it would be easier to use it to get around razorback. Unfortunately what looked like the grade from below turned out to not be the grade which was higher up the hill.
You know you are close to the grade when old parts start showing up. I'm guessing this was for some hose on a train?
We reached the grade soon enough, and debated whether to drop back in just to drop back up again in a little more than a 1/10 of a mile. We opted for the easy road and headed back to the car. On the hike out we reached what was probably a turn around for the train and found some old coal
When we got back to Adam's truck, Nathan pulled a spider off him
I hope this isn't the rehab the Trails Forever crew is working on
Until next time
Nice fish, but it sure looks like you dry-handed a few.
Nice trip. I'm glad you guys went anyway. I know several other people that said they were fishing in the park this weekend. I love rebellion!
Thanks for the post, and keep fighting the good fight for the rest of us.
Great photos, thanks. That looks like a mite (not spider).
I appreciate your stance on this and the fine post!!!
Yeah I was feeling it on that one where we had to run up past the crazy people shooting at us. Duckypaddler will take you fishing in the strangest places. I had a great time hanging out with Nathan and James they are awesome Smokies fishermen and sure don't shy away from adventure. As we were driving by a bunch of folks at a pull off who were taking pics on 441 James yelled out the window "Happy Civil Disobedience weekend!" and they all gave thumbs up back at us.
Dropping off the mountainside:
Getting ready to fish:
Nathan casting:
Deep hole:
Some crazy waist deep rapids above a death falls that we crossed:
