ROBERT E. CHAMBERS, II, PETITIONER,v.ATTORNEY GENERAL, ET AL., RESPONDENTS.
Robert E. Chambers, II, has presented a petition for a writ of habeas corpus which he has been granted leave to prosecute in forma pauperis. For the reasons set forth below, the petition will be dismissed and because reasonable jurists could not conclude that a basis for appeal exists, a certificate of appealability will be denied.
Chambers is presently incarcerated the State Correctional Institution at Albion serving a five to ten year sentence imposed, following his conviction by a jury of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance at No. 3823 of 2006, in the Court of Common Pleas of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. This sentence was imposed on August 28, 2007.*fn1
An appeal was taken to the Superior Court in which the issues presented were:
A. Whether the trial court erred in denying the Appellant's pretrial motion to suppress evidence obtained by the New Kensington Police Department.
B. Whether the trial court erred in finding the evidence sufficient to sustain a verdict of guilty on the count of possession with intent to deliver cocaine.
C. Whether the trial court abused its discretion in sentencing the Appellant to "stay out of New Kensington, Arnold and Lower Burrell" upon his release from prison as it is a direct violation of the due process clause of both the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.*fn2 On May 20, 2008, the Superior Court affirmed the judgment of sentence.*fn3 On October 8, 2008, leave to appeal was denied by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.*fn4
The petitioner apparently moved for an extension of time to file a post-conviction petition and leave was granted until September 22, 2008 to do so.*fn5 However, the respondents represent that there is no record "regarding the PCRA petition."*fn6
In the instant petition which was executed on December 3, 2008, Chambers contends that he is entitled to relief on the following grounds:
1. The IV Amendment of the U.S. Constitution [apparently challenging the seizure of evidence which he had discarded and which resulted in his conviction].
2. Whether the trial court erred in finding that the evidence presented was sufficient to support a finding of guilt.
3. Due process under the U.S. and PA constitutions [referring to the portion of the sentence requiring that he "stay out of New Kensington, Arnold and Lower Burrell upon release" from custody].*fn7 It is provided in 28 U.S.C. §2254(b) that:
An application for a writ of habeas corpus in behalf of a person in custody pursuant to the judgment of a State court shall not be granted unless it appears that the applicant has exhausted the remedies available in the courts of the State, or that there is either an absence of available State corrective process or the existence of circumstances rendering such process ineffective to protect the rights of the prisoner.
This statute represents a codification of the well-established concept which requires that before a federal court will review any allegations raised by a state prisoner, those allegations must first be presented to that state's highest court for consideration. Preiser v. Rodriguez, 411 U.S. 475 (1973); Braden v. 30th Judicial Circuit Court of Kentucky, 410 U.S. 484 (1973); Doctor v. Walters, 96 F.3d 675 (3d Cir. 1996).
It is only when a petitioner has demonstrated that the available corrective process would be ineffective or futile that the exhaustion requirement will not be imposed. Preiser v. Rodriguez, supra.; Walker v. Vaughn, 53 F.3d 609 (3d Cir. 1995).
If it appears that there are available state court remedies, the court must determine whether a procedural default has occurred. If a procedural default has occurred, the court must determine whether cause or prejudice exists for the default, or whether a fundamental miscarriage of justice would result from a failure to consider the claims. Carter v. Vaughn, 62 F.3d 591 (3d Cir. 1995).
In construing § 2254(d)(1), the Court in Williams v. Taylor, 529 U.S. 362, 412-413 (2000) stated:
Under § 2254(d)(1), the writ may issue only if one of the following two conditions is satisfied - the state-court adjudication resulted in a decision that (1) "was contrary to ... clearly established Federal law, as determined by the Supreme Court of the United States," or (2) "involved an unreasonable application of ... clearly established Federal law, as determined by the Supreme Court of the United States." Under the "contrary to" clause, a federal habeas court may grant the writ if the state court arrives at a conclusion opposite to that reached by this Court on a question of law or if the state court decides a case differently than this Court has on a set of materially indistinguishable facts. Under the "unreasonable application" clause, a federal habeas court may grant the writ if the state court identifies the correct governing legal principle from this Court's decisions but unreasonably applies that principle to the facts of the prisoner's case.
In Hameen v. Delaware, 212 F.3d 226, 235 (3d Cir. 2000), the Court determined: The Court in Williams v. Taylor held that "[u]nder the 'contrary to' clause, a federal habeas court may grant the writ if the state court arrives at a conclusion opposite to that reached by [the Supreme] Court on a question of law or if the state court decides a case differently than this Court has on a set of materially indistinguishable facts." Williams v. Taylor, further held that "[u]nder the 'unreasonable application' clause, a federal habeas court may grant the writ if the state court identifies the correct legal principle from [the Supreme] Court's decisions but unreasonably applies that principle to the facts of the prisoner's case." The "unreasonable application" inquiry requires the habeas court to "ask whether the state court's application of clearly established federal law was objectively unreasonable." Thus, under the "unreasonable application" clause, "a federal habeas court may not issue the writ simply because that court concludes in its independent judgment that the relevant state-court decision applied clearly established federal law erroneously or incorrectly. Rather, that application must also be unreasonable." The Court in Williams v. Taylor made it clear that the "contrary to" and "unreasonable application"clauses have independent meaning.
In the instant case, it would appear that the issues which the petitioner seeks to raise here have been raised in the courts of the Commonwealth, and are properly before this Court for consideration.*fn8 It would also appear that the petition is also timely filed.*fn9
The background to this prosecution is set forth in May 20, 2008 Memorandum of the Superior Court in which it is noted:
Officer Gary Schubert of the New Kensington Police Department, in response to a 911 dispatch regarding a possible drug deal in the area, pulled his patrol car up alongside Chambers and attempted to engage him in conversation; he asked Chambers if he would stop and speak with him, and asked him for his name.
Officer Schubert testified that Chambers fit the broadcast description of one of the three people involved. Chambers ignored the officer and continued to walk. Sgt. Robert Laporte, who also heard the dispatch, arrived in the area. Sergeant Laporte viewed Chambers walking on the sidewalk, "digging at his waistband." Sergeant Laporte saw Officer Schubert's patrol car as well as another patrol car in the area and he cautioned both. He then saw Chambers discard what looked like two paper towels. Following a pat-down search, which revealed nothing, the officer retrieved the discarded paper towels, which turned out to contain four baggies of cocaine with a combined weight of 23.4 grams.*fn10
The first issue which Chambers raises here concerns the alleged illegal seizure of the cocaine and argues that it should have been suppressed. In Stone v. Powell, 428 U.S. 465 (1976), the Court held that where a state convict has had a full and fair opportunity to litigate his Fourth Amendment issue in state courts, a federal habeas court should not revisit the issue. See also: Deputy v. Taylor, 19 F.3d 1485 (3d Cir.), cert. denied 512 U.S. 1230 (1994). In her Opinion of December 4, 2007,*fn11 the trial court noted that in response to the petitioner's Omnibus pre-trial motion to suppress, a hearing was conducted on two separate dates following which the court concluded:
The Defendant has not alleged that he had a valid possessory or privacy interest in the location (the public street) where the drugs were discarded. Therefore, the question becomes whether the paper towels were discarded voluntarily... Having previously determined that the initial police interaction with the Defendant was a mere encounter, which need not be supported by any level of suspicion or cause, and that the encounter did not escalate into an investigatory detention until the pat-down occurred, and having determined through the testimony that the Defendant discarded the paper towel while walking partially behind the dumpster. He then came back around the dumpster and approached the police officers, who had by that time stopped their cars and started to get out. Based upon these finding, the abandonment of the cocaine by the Defendant was not coerced by any police illegality and was voluntary.*fn12
Additionally, abandoned property is not subject to Fourth Amendment protection. United States v. Pitts, 322 F.3d 449 (7th Cir.), cert denied 540 U.S. 849(2003). Thus, the petitioner's Fourth Amendment claim does not provide a basis for relief here.
The next issue which Chambers raises here is that the evidence was insufficient to sustain the verdict. Where the sufficiency of the evidence is challenged, the question is whether any rational fact-finder could have found guilt beyond a reasonable doubt based on the evidence presented. Orban v. Vaughn, 123 F.3d 727 (3d Cir.1997), cert. denied 522 U.S. 1059 (1998). The petitioner was charged with possession with intent to deliver. From the recitation set forth above, it is clear that if believed, there was sufficient evidence upon which a reasonable fact-finder could find guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
The final issue which the petitioner raises here seeks to challenge that portion of his sentence which requires that he not enter New Kensington, Arnold and Lower Burrell.*fn13 As part of the Order of Sentence, the Court added the following remark/comment/additional condition: "Stay out of New Ken[sington], Lower Burrell/Arnold Area."*fn14 At the sentencing hearing on August 28, 2007, following the imposition of a consecutive sentence to the one the petitioner was serving, the court commented, "In addition then, the defendant is to stay out of New Kensington, Arnold and Lower Burrell when he is released."*fn15 No objection was raised to this gratuitous comment.*fn16
In a habeas corpus petition challenging a sentence, the only matter before the court is whether the imposed sentence falls within the statutory range. United States ex rel. Jackson v. Myers, 374 F.2d 707 (3d Cir.1967); Cummings v. Burge, 581 F.Supp.2d 436 (W.D.N.Y. 2008).
In the present case, Chambers was convicted of violating 35 P.S. 780-113(a)(30), that is, possession with intend to deliver a controlled substance. The penalty, set forth in 35 P.S. 780-113(f) is imprisonment for a term not exceeding fifteen years. In the instant case, the petitioner was sentenced to a five to ten year period of incarceration, a term which is clearly within the statutory maximum. As such the term is not subject to challenge here.
Additionally, the petitioner contends that the court exceeded its authority in requiring that upon release from custody he not enter certain municipalities. As both the trial court and the Superior Court observed, where a sentence in excess of two years is imposed, under Pennsylvania law, the conditions of parole rest exclusively within the province of the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole and not the trial court, citing 61 P.S. 331.17 and Lee v. Pennsylvania Bd. Of Probation and Parole, 885 A.2d 634 (Pa.Cmwlth.2005). Specifically, the trial court stated: the Defendant was sentenced to a period of incarceration of not less than five and not more than ten years incarceration at the Bureau of Corrections. It is acknowledged that the sentencing court does not have the authority to grant parole in such a sentence, where the maximum exceeds two years; such power is the exclusive province of the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole... hence, the inclusion in any sentencing Order of Court involving a maximum period of incarceration of two years or more of language regarding a condition of parole is but a recommendation or suggestion only, and is clearly not mandatory or enforceable unless made a special condition of parole by the Board.*fn17
Thus, because the record reveals that the state courts' decisions did not involve any improper interpretation or application of federal case law as determined by the United States Supreme Court, there is no basis here for granting relief. Accordingly, the petition will be dismissed and because reasonable jurists could not conclude that a basis for appeal exists, a certificate of appealability will be denied.
An appropriate Order will be entered.
AND NOW, this 9th day of March, 2009, for the reasons set forth in the foregoing Memorandum, the petition of Robert E. Chambers, II, for a writ of habeas corpus is dismissed and because reasonable jurists could not conclude that a basis for appeal exists, a certificate of appealability is denied.

2004 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan E500 Rwd 4dr Sedan (5.0L 8cyl 7A)
Loaded. The first owner was the dealership managers wife. The second owner only used dealership maintenance. Babied car, always garaged.
What a nightmare! It's just so much fun to drive a 6 year old Mercedes with only 52,000 miles that doesn't have an operational radio. There is a widely known issue with the radio with these vehicle (go ahead and Google 2004 e500 radio problems) yet no one at MB cares! The dealers won't go to battle for you even though they acknowledge it's a widely known issue. MB Customer Care? Well aren't they the most pompous and arrogant individuals on the planet. Go buy something else, there are far better luxury automobiles out there.
At this point, ZERO!
Take care of your owners and stand by your product! Sure I know you offer a 4 year 50K warranty. But why does the radio break on a vehicle with only 52,000 miles that is only 6 years old? They want me to buy a radio for $800 yet they aren't even sure if that will solve the problem!
Bought the car new 5 years ago and now have 40k miles. Two minor problems fixed under warranty. What is amazing is the combination of performance, comfort and fuel economy. Highway is an easy 27mpg at 75 to 80 mph and yes, its the 500. Around town is 18mpg. So why the gas guzzler tax? Very comfortable and still looks virtually new. Main annoyance is noise from a pump for the brake system. Aside from that, quiet and dependable. Radio and in-dash CD player work and sound great, although the layout of the radio is a bit quirky at first.
Engine performance, good looks and solid quality. Still get complements on the car. The air suspension is quite amazing and very adaptable.
Real gas and temp gauges! The ones in this car look cheap and are hard to read. Take the clock out and replace it with real gauges that you need every day. I have a watch thank you.
Great car fun to drive. Lots of electrical problems, can't remember how many times I have had the radio repaired or replaced, still not fixed. Don't waste your money on this one.
Great style, is an eye catching car.
Improve dealer service and fix electrical system.
I have had this car for almost one year and have not had any problems with it. Great car, good power, fun to drive and definitely a head turner.
Nav, heated massaging seats, streptronic shift.
Seats can be a little uncomfortable sometimes, that's just my impression

WOODBURY - A new plan could replace LIPA with a New Jersey-based power company.
PSE&G will take over LIPA's electrical transmission and distribution system from National Grid in 2014. But now there's another proposal to have PSE&G take over most of the day-to-day operations in order to lower electric rates.
LIPA trustee Matthew Cordaro worries that having a private company like PSE&G take over a municipal power authority would be a difficult transition, especially with LIPA's $9 billion debt from the now-closed Shoreham nuclear power plant. Suffolk County Energy Committee chairman Wayne Horsley says that debt is funded with low-interest, municipal-backed loans. Horsley questions how the debt would be restructured by a private company.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo has previously discussed privatizing LIPA, but appears to be backing away from giving PSE&G total control.
Cuomo's press office confirms it is looking at the proposal but says it is exploring all options.

OK then, here we go... They fit like a dream! It's always a gamble with Jockey as their sizing is so inconstant but I'm a 40 inch waist with big thighs and these in size large are great. The elastic on the legs is good and strong so you won't end up pulling them out of your bum when you stand up. The ribbing is great, although they 'give' a little as the day progresses, in so much as they'll not be quite as snug when you take them off as when you put them on! A bit of lycra wouldn't go amiss, but that goes for their classic range too. But yes, EXTREMELY comfy nontheless! They are not optically brightened (God knows why not!) which means they are a truly horrible creamy yellow colour when you get them, but after a couple of washes with some vanish oxy stuff for whites, they will get closer to white, just don't put them next to anything that is truly white as it'll give the game away! so to sum up, well made, good fit (go for a size lower than you normally get), horrible colour and maybe, just MAYBE a little pricey! I'd buy them again though.

Comfortable pair of pants. I like the wide waistband and high rise. Underpants like they used to be. The double rib means that they have some 'give' when needed so they are very comfortable. Leg trims quite robust so they do show through trousers. The un bleached cotton is ok. Cream coloured until washed in a normal whites wash, then they go to being white pants as normal. They are on the pricey side, so maybe not everyday wear.
I like these a lot and also the tee-shirt, though I prefer the closer fit of the sports briefs, which are a tad cheaper to boot. Definetely recommended.I did realise from your ad that these are off-white, no problem.

When you have a child with autism, it is easy to get caught up in the extra work, the meltdowns or the fights with the school district. Raising a child with special needs means you are exhausted and frustrated more often than not. But, there are many positives to raising a child with autism and at this time of year – Thanksgiving – when we reflect on what we are grateful for in our lives, it seems a good time to post a list of things to be grateful when raising a child with autism.
- I am thankful for gaining a new perspective on success. Where I once thought success had to be "big" I now am appreciative of every small victory my child makes. Taking a step, saying a word, tying his shoes, every step he makes is celebrated.
- I am thankful for the enormous amount of research being done on autism so we can better understand how to treat it and how to best help our children learn.
- I am thankful for the support of my family and friends, for those who have kept an open mind, read, researched and learned about autism in order to better understand and relate to my child.
- I am thankful for the advances in our educational system. While we still have a long way to go, we have come a long way and every day we are learning more about educating children with autism to help them lead successful and happy lives.
- I am thankful for teachers who care, not because it is their job but because they genuinely care about the children in their classrooms and put an enormous amount of effort into not only teaching our children academics but about social skills and learning to get along in this world.
- I am thankful to have a child that doesn't care about trends, this year's fashions or whether others think he is cool.
- I am thankful for a child who follows his own heart and the "beat of his own drum." I am thankful for his ability to see the world through his own eyes without changing for someone else's benefit.
- I am thankful for the unbridled enthusiasm my child shows for those things that interest him. Whether those things are "appropriate" for his age doesn't matter to him. The joy he feels when able to spend time doing what he wants to do is amazing to watch.
- I am thankful that my child has shown me not to take anything for granted but to be thankful for the little things.
- I am thankful for the affection my child shows me. I know that one of the myths about autism is that children with autism don't show emotion or don't show affection, I know that isn't true. I am grateful for the times my child says "I love you" or reaches out to give me a hug.
- I am thankful for the unique perspective – the logical, black and white perspective – that my child shares with me. It is amazing to see the world through his eyes.
- I am thankful because learning to understand my child has made me more tolerant of difference in all people.
- I am thankful because raising my son and getting to know him has made me a better person.

Great little camera
I was looking for a new and smaller camera in a good price range. I am outdoors a lot and wanted to share my excitement with what I see. This is very easy to use, except it took me a while to figure out how the zoom feature worked, the manual wasn't very clear on this feature.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? This is exactly like I thought it would be.
- Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? Yes
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. I like the ease of use and small size.

the bitter and the sweet/
Zoe's our daughter. I don't think of her as a former orphan, though she is. We've settled into life with her, and it feels like it's been far more than eight weeks since we brought her home.
Today has been bittersweet. Precious, but only made so by the difficult realities of adoption.
First, a bittersweet and wonderful word...
She's been saying it occasionally, but we haven't been sure if it had meaning or not. Today, she was fussing on the floor with Jocelyn, and I scooped her up from behind. When she saw who it was who had her, our eyes locked and her mostly gummy grin let out a beautiful "Mama."
This moment with each of my other two was just sweet. No bitter in sight.
But the reality is that adoption only exists due to brokenness, be it poverty or death or sin or some other circumstance that won't exist in heaven and didn't exist in the Garden of Eden. In the absence of brokenness, Zoe wouldn't be ours. She would be saying "mama" to the one who gave birth to her.
The sweetness, though, is in redemption. Just as God's redemption of me transformed me from a sinner to His child, the beauty of redemption in earthly adoption takes an orphan and makes her a loved daughter.
A daughter whose Mama's heart fills with joy when she uses her first word to call me by name.
Second, a bittersweet and wonderful moment...
Lee went on a week-long business trip, returning today. Zoe has been a little cranky all week.
I thought it was teething, but she hasn't acted this way with other teeth. It could be that she has been carted around more, with school registration and carpools and a developmental evaluation. It could have been any of those realities. But I realized today that she might not know that Daddy - her favorite parent by far, which I love - was coming back.
With Jocelyn and Robbie, I could say, "We've always come back." And "Mommy and Daddy have always been here for you." And "Do you have any reason to doubt us?"
For Zoe, we haven't always been there. She's learning to trust us. It's different.
For Zoe, I don't think she knew that Daddy was coming back. She is more tentative with him this evening than she has been since our first days in Taiwan. In time, she'll trust him again, but we're not quite sure she does right now.
That's the bitter.
The sweet? It's this.

Minneapolis' favorite son was a whirlwind of creativity that knew no bounds, the purple-minded genius releasing dozens of albums on his own, but also mentoring and producing dozens of bands like dirty-minded girl group Vanity 6 and synth-funk dynamos the Time. His songs became massive pop hits for stars as disparate as Sinead O'Connor, Chaka Khan, the Bangles and Tevin Campbell. He turned his personal treatises on sexual persona, spiritual angst and social unrest into a universal art that spoke to millions, no matter their race, class, or gender. Few pop artists over the past four decades were as universally beloved as Prince. These are some of the best Prince songs that became hits for others.
Vanity 6, "Nasty Girl" (1982)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Didn't chart, but Number One U.S. Hot Dance Club Play
Four years before Janet Jackson converted "nasty" from a pejorative into a positive, Vanity 6 got the wheels greased with "Nasty Girl." The 1982 single was the first (and only) hit by the Prince-assembled girl group. He also wrote and produced the track, whose sleazy pleasures were tailor-made for the dance floor (as well as the stripper pole). "At first, Prince wanted to call me Vagina," said Vanity, who was born Denise Matthews, in an interview with Bam in 1985. "Even though he pronounced it Va-jeana, that would have been too weird. His next choice was Vanity. I liked that." The song reached the top spot in Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play chart, only to be knocked off, ironically enough, by Prince's "1999."
Stevie Nicks, "Stand Back" (1983)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number Five
Technically, the raspy 1983 Wild Heart dance track "Stand Back," was written by Nicks herself – but Nicks has said it "belongs" to Prince. She likes to tell its origin story: It was the day of her wedding, she and her new husband Kim Anderson were driving North to Santa Barbara for their honeymoon when she heard "Little Red Corvette" for the first time. She wrote "Stand Back" start to finish that day, humming along to the Prince single. When she later went to record the song, she called to tell him the story. Twenty minutes later the Purple One showed up at her studio. He "walked over to the synthesizers that were set up, was absolutely brilliant for about 25 minutes and then left," she later told Timothy White. "He spoiled me for every band I've ever had because nobody can exactly recreate – not even with two piano players – what Prince did all by his little self."
The Time, "Jungle Love" (1984)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number 20
Before splitting off to become one of the top songwriting/producing teams in the business, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis were members of the Time, the Prince-assembled group whose first hit came in 1984 with "Jungle Love." It's not hard to see why it made a splash; the song's hard funk groove, Tarzan-esque motif and hooky refrain carried all the formidable dance-floor oomph of a Prince song. Prince is credited as co-writer and producer of the track, although the Time's guitarist Jesse Johnson soon disputed his former boss' role in its creation – in less than diplomatic terms. "Prince is such an asshole," Johnson told the NME in 1986. "I wrote, played and produced stuff like 'Jungle Love,' that's my sound."
Sheila E., "The Glamorous Life" (1984)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number Seven
This funk-laced track about a woman who, despite having the outward trappings of "happiness," wants romantic love became the pop breakthrough for Sheila Escovedo, who met Prince in 1978. ("Oh, I know who you are," he said to her after she introduced herself.) The coda, which showcases Sheila E.'s incredible prowess on the drums and a wild sax solo by jazzman Jarry Williams, was snipped from the radio edit, but became well-known because of its delirious virtuosity. "'The Glamorous Life' was the last song we worked on. In fact, we weren't even going to include it on the album," Sheila E. wrote in her 2014 memoir, The Beat Of My Own Drum. "It started out as an instrumental, and I couldn't think of any lyrics for it at first. Once I got started, though, the words came quickly … It was very percussive and it had a catchy melody, incorporating all the black keys on the piano so that it almost sounded like a nursery rhyme."
Chaka Khan, "I Feel for You" (1984)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number Three
Prince allegedly penned "I Feel for You" as a valentine to one of his crushes, jazz-funk queen Patrice Rushen, and included it on his 1979 self-titled album. Years later, Chaka Khan and longtime producer Arif Mardin turned "I Feel for You" into a Gold-certified cataclysm of electro-funk, R&B and hip-hop. There is the seductive voice of Melle Mel of "The Message" and Beat Street fame serenading Chaka, a harmonica riff from Stevie Wonder and those loud, blaring synthesizer stabs typical of pop music of the era. Just as big was its heavy-rotation video clip that featured L.A. break dancers like Shabba Doo and Boogaloo Shrimp, fresh from their triumphant performances in the unexpected box office hit Breakin'. But Khan, who had spent much of the early-Eighties delving into sensuously mature boogie-funk and jazz-pop, wasn't entirely comfortable with the colorfully gauche "I Feel For You. " "Arif and I had to make a conscious effort to do that," she told Billboard in 1984. "'I Feel For You is obviously a song that appeals to a lot of the younger kids.'" Khan probably didn't mind when "I Feel for You" became the biggest hit of her solo career, topping the R&B charts and earning her a 1985 Grammy for Best R&B Song. As for Prince, he was too busy with Purple Rain to appear on the track. "Prince [had] schedule problems, couldn't do it," Mardin said.
Sheena Easton, "Sugar Walls" (1985)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number Nine
"I walked into the studio and there was no 12 bodyguards, just him," Sheena Easton told Q in 1991, recalling her first meeting with Prince in the Eighties. "He was very quiet and shy." As quiet and shy as Prince may have been, there's nothing modest about his first collaboration with Easton, "Sugar Walls." Listed by Tipper Gore's Parents' Music Resource Council as one of the "Filthy Fifteen" songs that were sure to pervert the minds of young America, the Prince-penned "Sugar Walls" contains one of the most viscerally erotic double entendres in pop history: "Come spend the night inside my sugar walls," Easton croons over dreamy alien funk.
Sheila E., "A Love Bizarre" (1985)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number 11
The only track from Sheila E.'s 1985 album Romance 1600 to have a Prince co-writing credit, "A Love Bizarre" is a sinewy duet between Prince and his collaborator/paramour that hints at kink with references to "outrageous sin" and things getting "kinda rough in the back of our limousine." As with their collab "The Glamorous Life," the album version is decidedly longer, with a slow-burn back end that incrementally turns up the temperature. Prince repurposed the track on the 1995 standalone single "Purple Medley," an 11-minute travelogue through his catalog that also includes the Time's "777-9311."
The Bangles, "Manic Monday" (1986)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number Two
After seeing an early Bangles show in Los Angeles, Prince sent the band a tape with two original songs he wanted them to record. One was "Manic Monday," a jangly, infectious diary of 9-to-5 office blues, that Prince was able to accurately capture without experiencing. The track is relatively innocent, but Prince does get in a classic line: "Of all of my nights/Why did my lover have to pick last night to get down?" It was the band's first hit, reaching Number Two in the U.S. "I remember going in and singing that song and being on the mike and it was kind of like red light fever," Bangles singer Susanna Hoffs told Songfacts. "I knew it was a Prince song, and I wanted to do a great job on it." Her mind was eased when Prince listened to the track. "He was really thrilled with how it came out. I think he might have said something like, 'Oh, I was surprised you guys didn't use my track,' or something. But he was very happy with it."
Art of Noise feat. Tom Jones, "Kiss" (1988)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Number 31
Prince's 1986 bluesy stomper "Kiss" has a long lineage. He originally wrote it for bass player Brown Mark's band Mazarati, but – just as Bruce Springsteen did with "Hungry Heart" when he wrote it for the Ramones – Prince stole it back for 1986's Parade, and the song went to Number One. Soon, Tom Jones added the song to his Vegas live show. The avant-garde group the Art of Noise got in touch after seeing him perform it on TV, and the unlikely pair teamed up. The result was an industrial and funky, the best thing Jones had done in years. "When they sent me the finished version I thought, 'If this isn't a hit, I'll bloody well pack it all in.' It was a busting hit." It got Jones on MTV for the first time, kicking off a commercial comeback.
Patti Labelle, "Yo Mister" (1989)" (1988)
Hot 100 Chart Position: Didn't chart, but Number Six on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs
Written for LaBelle's Be Yourself album, "Yo Mister" represents Prince trying his hand at New Jack Swing – he also produced the track. The song, a cautionary tale about what happens when a father can't overlook his daughter's indiscretions, became one of LaBelle's highest-charting R&B hits.

In the second-quarter survey, 65% of carriers indicated they plan to increase capacity. This presents no notable change from first-quarter 2013 and second-quarter 2012 percentages.
Carriers also remain conservative in their estimates for how much capacity they will add. Over three-quarters of carriers plan to add little (1% to 5%) or no capacity in the coming 12 months – very little change, again, from first-quarter 2013 and second-quarter 2012 numbers. Only 24% of carriers planned capacity increases of more than 5%. The very modest optimism regarding rate and volume expectations continues to influence whether carriers will add capacity, and, if so, to what degree.

A phone you can dance to the Samsung UpStage is so unique, you have to see it (and hear it) to believe it. On one side, it's a slim, stylish Samsung phone with Stereo Bluetooth Wireless Technology and a 1.3 megapixel camera. On the other side, it's a slim, stylish Samsung music player with touch-sensitive media controls and a stereo speaker. Either way, it's a phone you'll flip over.

When this phone came out i was totally in "had to have it" mode. I finally got one when it was about 6 months old and was kind of disappointed. I love all the features it had, the thing that got me was it had an MP3 player in in andyou could flip it around with screens on bith side. The things i did not like were, even though touch pad had a sensitivity conrtol in the settings menu, it was still a pain in the butt. There is no batrery cover becasue of the design all you have is a reset buttn. a feature that i liked since i am prone to dropping my phones. however becasue of this, it would over heat easily and you would have to reset it more than you would think needed. It comes with the MicroSD card (If you get it new in the box from sprint) which was a bonus becasue they can be spendy. i twas easy to transfer music too, however you don't really have that much room for that many songs. It also comes with an extended battery pack that doubles as a leather protectuive case for it, which i though was great at first unless you do alot of "flipping" it got to be annoying so i bought another case for it. Over all i like this phone, but i don't like sprint

I rarely ever buy new gadgets especially when it comes to phones but I decided to treat myself when the UpStage came out because I figured it would be saving me money because I'd have a cell phone and an MP3 player.
I rarely ever use the MP3 player because it takes so long for the music to load. I don't have any songs downloaded on the phone but it still takes a LONG time for the music to load and it doesn't just load the first time, it has to load every time you want to listen to music. The sound quality is typical cell phone sound quality too.
The sleek design is nice but impractical. It comes in a case which doubles as the backup battery which extends the life of the battery but makes the phone a little bulky to carry around.
There are a lot of features not on this phone which I miss from my previous phones like the shortcut navigation buttons.
They advertise it as a flip phone which is very accurate, you have to CONSTANTLY flip from one side to the other to go between functions.
I don't know if it's because of the slim design but I don't get good reception on the phone. In order to get a good signal, I have to take it out of it's case completely but then when I talk on it, it uses a lot of battery so it's a toss up, good reception or long battery life.
The one feature I do like is that you can flip the camera so that you can actually take a picture facing yourself and see what you're capturing on the screen.
It's a nice phone but I'd much rather have my old phone back.

Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
Although they had a great idea of combining a cell phone and ipod all in one - it's more of a pain then it does good. I hate the fact that you constantly have to be switching back and forth between the two sides for each different feature. Wouldnt suggest it, especially for the money paid on it.
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
I love this phone. It has everything I am looking for and it is very easy to carry around. It is slim so it can fit anywhere! It has been dropped it a few times and it has no scratches and still works perfectly. When you have a small child, you need a phone that can withstand anything, this phone fits the bill.

It's not a very good phone.. The screen is constantly freezing.. You keep having to reset it.. But reseting it doesn't always work.. It's not very loud.. and the Touch screen is so hard to work..The battery doesn't last very long with the bulky battery pack that you connect to it.. Really it's been one of the most worst phone that I have ever, every had.. It's really just hard to use.. The software for it takes up to much space.. I mean the design is great, but in all it doesn't make up for the all of the things that just don't work with it.. The touch pad is too touchy even when you put it to the lowest point.. You don't get very good service everywhere..
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
I wanted a reliable phone that was compact and was stylish at the same time. Good reception is also very important to me. The upstage for the most part has met all those features. It has a lot of extras on it, camera, camcorder, internet, music, etc. For the most part I just use it to talk, text and take pics. It takes a little getting used to the buttons, but overall I like it a lot, it meets my needs.
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
This cellphone requires a "average" learning curve. Like any new phone, you have to learn where to find everything. Also, you can not easy get dizzy. This phone will test your nerves. Remember that you most probably dug into your front pocket to get this phone. Not a cheap phone. Like any commitment, stick with it.
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
I was very excited to get this cell phone...however, the excitement did not last very long. The screen that you dial from is too small, so you have to scroll down when reading a longer text message. I think the most disappointing thing about this phone is the battery life. Yes, it comes with an extended life battery "wallet", but when it starts losing battery life, it happens too quickly. I will have two bars on each battery at the start of the day and half way through my work day the low battery sign is blinking. I do not use my phone during the day at work, so this is disappointing. I expected better from this phone.
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
This is a great phone, a cheaper version of the iPhone. Love the MP3 as well as having a digital camera and phone as well. I am a heavy cell phone user and see a huge value with this phone. Very easy to use and it fits nicely in the palm of my hand and in my pockets. Sound is very clear for both calls and playing the MP3.Also the battery life is great it last me more then a week.
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
I first got my Samsung Upstage when I switched to Sprint from Cingular almost three years ago. I simply wanted a bar phone that was small. I only used my phone for calls and liked the idea of the music player since I did not have an MP3 player. The phone is tiny, durable and lasts pretty good with battery time and adds even more talk or play time when the included battery wallet is added. I must admit that I rarely use the battery wallet and it adds to the size too much to be comfortable in my shirt pocket where I keep my phone. I added a 2GB card and now hold 500 songs in my phone, which I have never even updated since I got it. Now the bad part....I really love this phone, but after nearly three years, the battery does not last too long. I was told when I got it that it needed to be sent in to get the battery replaced, but to my surprise, after spending hours on the phone with Sprint and Samsung people, the nasty truth comes out....THERE IS NO WAY TO REPLACE THE BATTERY!!!!!! I will stick with this phone until I can no longer get through one day on a charge, but then it will be time to move to something else.
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
It is an ok phone if you like thin. Only thing is that I dont like is it is a flip phone meaning you hit a button and turn your phone over. It does have music on it but the sound quality of the music isn't that great. But other features of the phone include Music library, Sync my music, Buy music, Pictures, tools, calendar, web, tv, and on demand. The sound quality for voice calls is good. The text messaging is a little difficult to use the the keypads are also numbers and it makes it hard to use two hands to type because of how thin and small the phone is. When I had upgraded to this phone from my old phone I had no idea of what it looked like or how thin it was If I would have known I would not have upgraded to this phone. I know now to make sure to look at a phone and it's features before upgrading again. It is a good phone for basic use of voice calls. But I know I will never buy this type of phone again.
Comments about Samsung Upstage Cell Phone:
I purchased Samsung M620 at an authorized outlet in the Philippines. After few hours of using the unit, it suddenly shuts off. At first, I thought I just press something that makes it turn off. But it happens 4 to 5 times. I return it to the store. And it is so disappointing that it will took many days to replace the defective unit. I will never buy any samsung product again! Their replacement/return policy is not good.

A color graphics terminal having a cathode-ray-tube (CRT) display monitor generally includes a frame buffer in which information representing the distribution of color over the screen of the CRT is stored. The addressable memory locations in the frame buffer are associated on a one-to-one basis with the pixels of the display, and each addressable location is capable of storing a digital word comprising four binary digits or bits, representing one of 16 possible colors for the associated pixel. The four-bit words are read from the frame buffer in timed relationship to the scanning of the terminal's display screen, to provide a four-bit parallel signal. The four-bit parallel signal is converted into three two-bit parallel signals. Each set of three two-bit words represents the contributions of three primary color components (red, green and blue) to the color of the associated pixel. Two one-bit signals, representing blanking information and sync information respectively, are also generated. The three two-bit color signals and the one-bit blanking signal are logically combined in such manner that if blanking is asserted the color signals are each driven to 00 whereas if blanking is not asserted the color signals are unchanged. The three two-bit color signals, modified by the blanking signal, are applied to a DAC system in which they are compared with reference voltages, and three analog signals are generated. The one-bit sync signal is used to add sync information to at least one of the analog signals during the blanking interval, and the resulting three analog signals are applied to respective output amplifiers. Each amplifier either has an output impedance of 75 ohms or is connected to an impedance matching network having an output impedance of 75 ohms, in order to facilitate matching to the monitor input terminals. The analog output signals of the three amplifiers are used to drive the three electron guns of the CRT.
The conventional color video DAC system is subject to the disadvantage that it has a high parts count and a large number of different parts. Accordingly, manufacture and calibration of the conventional DAC system is expensive.
A preferred form of digital-to-analog converter embodying the present invention comprises a current source for supplying a current of predetermined magnitude to a circuit node, and a switch connected to the circuit node and defining a first current path leading to a reference potential terminal and a second current path leading to an output terminal. The switch has an input terminal, at which it receives a first digital signal of one binary digit for conversion to analog form, and also has a reference terminal, and has a first condition, when the voltage at the reference terminal is higher than that at the input terminal, in which the current supplied to the circuit node is delivered to the output terminal, and a second condition, when the voltage at the reference terminal is lower than that at the input terminal, in which the current is delivered to the reference potential terminal. The converter also comprises a level shifting network which receives a second digital signal of one binary digit and generates an output signal having a voltage that depends on whether the second digital signal is a logical zero or a logical one. If the second digital signal is a logical zero, the voltage of the output signal lies intermediate the voltage levels corresponding to the first signal's being a logical zero and a logical one, and if the second digital signal is a logical one, the voltage of the output signal is higher than the voltage level corresponding to the first signal's being a logical one. The output signal of the level shifting network is applied to the reference terminal of the switch.
For a better understanding of the invention, and to show how the same may be carried into effect, reference will now be made, by way of example, to the accompanying drawing, the single figure of which is a simplified circuit diagram, partly in schematic form and partly in block form, of a color video DAC system.
The illustrated color video DAC system has an input line 10 on which it receives a stream of parallel eight bit words. Two color information bits (an MSB and an LSB) are applied to DACs 12R, 12G and 12B respectively, for generating analog signals to drive the red, green and blue electron guns of a color CRT (not shown). The bits on the line 10 have TTL voltage levels, such that a voltage of 0 to 0.8 volts on a conductor of the line 10 represents a digital zero and a voltage of 2.0 to 5.0 volts on the conductor represents a digital one.
Each of the DACs 12 includes a level shifter 14 which receives the LSB and the MSB of the appropriate digital color information signal. The level shifter 14G receives the remaining two bits of each eight bit word on the line 10, representing blanking information and sync information respectively. The level shifters 14 translate the positive TTL voltage levels received from the line 10 to negative voltage levels LSB', MSB', BLK' and SYNC'. The voltage level corresponding to logical zero for LSB and MSB might be, for example, -5.3 volts and the voltage level corresponding to logical one might then be -2.4 volts. The voltage levels corresponding to BLK and /BLK might be -0.2 and -3.4 volts, and the voltage levels corresponding to SYNC and /SYNC might be -18 and -19 volts. The signals LSB' and MSB' are applied to the bases of respective transistors Q1 and Q3, and the signal BLK' is applied to the bases of transistors Q2 and Q4. Each pair of transistors Q1, Q2 and Q3, Q4 is connected in common emitter configuration, the emitters of the transistors of each pair being connected to a current source. The current source 16 connected to the transistors Q1 and Q2 supplies a current I, while the current source 18 connected to the transistors Q3 and Q4 supplies a current 2I. In a practical implementation, I might be 8.2 mA. Each pair of transistors Q1, Q2 and Q3, Q4 forms a current switching comparator that determines whether the current supplied by the source 16 or 18 is drawn from an output terminal 20 or from ground.
When the signal BLK is asserted, the negative voltage signal BLK' has a value such that the transistors Q2 and Q4 conduct the currents I and 2I respectively, regardless of the condition of LSB and MSB, and consequently the entire current 3I is drawn from the output terminal 20 with the result that the terminal 20 is pulled to a low voltage. If, while BLK is asserted, SYNC is also asserted, the level-shifted signal SYNC' switches on a logic controlled current source 22 which draws additional current I SYNC (e. g. 2 mA) from the terminal 20G, resulting in the terminal 20G being drawn to a still lower voltage. It will be understood that SYNC is not asserted except when BLK is asserted.
If BLK is not asserted, the negative voltage logic signal BLK' has a value between the voltage levels associated with LSB' and MSB' being logical zero and logical one. Therefore, when BLK is not asserted and LSB or MSB is at logical zero, the current supplied by the source 16 or 18, as the case may be, is conducted by the transistors Q2 or Q4 and is drawn from the output terminal 20. When BLK is not asserted and LSB or MSB is at logical one, the current supplied by the source 16 or 18 is drawn from ground through the transistor Q1 or Q3. The collector currents of the transistors Q2 and Q4 are summed, and provided that BLK is not asserted the aggregate current has four possible values depending upon the values of LSB and MSB.
The terminal 20 is connected to a resistor network comprising resistors R1 and R2. In the case of a conventional color monitor employing 75 ohm transmission lines, the resistance values of the resistors R1 and R2 are chosen so that when the terminal 20 is connected to an open circuit the voltage at the terminal can swing between -0.8 volts and +2 volts, and the output resistance at the terminal 20 is 75 ohms. In the case of the current values indicated previously, the resistance values of R1 and R2 are 191 ohms and 124 ohms respectively. When the terminal 20 is connected to a transmission line that is terminated with a resistor R3 having a resistance value of 75 ohms, the voltage at the terminal 20 swings between -0.4 volts and 1 volt, in accordance with normal video standards.
The color video DAC system illustrated in the figure provides the advantage of relatively small total component count, and relatively few different components. For example, the comparators are all identical, and the level shifting networks are identical except that the network 14G must provide level shifting for four signals. Moreover, the need for output amplifiers is avoided. In addition, by referencing all of the current sources from the same reference value, and by use of precision resistors, inherent calibration is achieved. By generating the signal BLK' in only one channel, the need to apply BLK to the other two channels and include level shifters for BLK in those channels is avoided. By using the signal BLK' as the reference voltage in the comparators, the operations of combining the blanking signal with the color signals and comparing the modified color signals with reference voltages are combined into a single operation.
It will be appreciated that the present invention is not restricted to the particular color video DAC that has been shown and described, and that variations may be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims, and equivalents thereof. For example, the BLK and SYNC signals may be applied to the red DAC channel or the blue DAC channel instead of to the green DAC channel, and indeed the BLK and SYNC signals may be applied to different DAC channels. Greater resolution may be provided by increasing the number of color information bits for one or more of the DAC channels, and increasing correspondingly the number of current switches and current sources.

I'm learning to deal with all this, apparently. (It used to alternately cause insomnia and nightmares.) I was completely desensitized to hearing my friend being called a coon, which, if it's your first time, is incredibly upsetting. It wasn't until my Facebook feed alerted me to follow-up responses that expressed anger and outrage over this insult that I realized how used to all of this I am.
But like most people who deal with Internet harassment, I rarely talk about it. I'm just supposed to be solely grateful that people know my name and bother to read my work, and that's all that should matter. So I shut up and play the part. Occasionally I save the really good hate mail (NSFW) to whip out over cocktails and appetizers with friends, like, "OMG! You will never believe this one!"
I think of it as the equivalent of an emergency room doctor horrifying her friends with stories of the wild things that happened on the overnight shift. Everyone who's listening—unless also in the media in some way—is shocked and weirdly intrigued at the depths and density of the unadulterated crazy in the world.
Maybe some unfortunate day you will experience this for yourself, since anyone on social media can be launched into a national conversation at any time. It happened to Karlesha Thurman, the young woman who dared to breast-feed her hungry baby at her college graduation and then post a picture that she in no way could have expected to go viral.
It happened to Alexis Carter, the teen who became the subject of Rihanna's ire when she had the nerve to be inspired by the celeb's red-carpet look and got clowned for her prom attire in a meme that went viral. It happened to Rachel Jeantel when she just so happened to be on the phone with Trayvon Martin when he was killed and she was later called to testify in a nationally televised trial.
Each of these young women was berated mercilessly across the Internet. Thankfully, all of them survived it (no easy feat)—unlike Scott. Hopefully you will, too.

Clerk, U.S. District Court, ILCD
On June 24, 2011, a Report & Recommendation was filed by Magistrate Judge Byron G. Cudmore in the above captioned case. More than fourteen (14) days have elapsed since the filing of the Report & Recommendation, and no objections have been made. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Lockert v. Faulkner, 843 F.2d 1015 (7th Cir. 1988); and Video Views, Inc. v. Studio 21, Ltd., 797 F.2d 538, 539 (7th Cir. 1986). As the parties failed to present timely objections, any such objections have been waived. Id.
The relevant procedural history is sufficiently set forth in the comprehensive Report & Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge. Suffice it to say that Plaintiff has brought this litigation alleging that Defendants made and are using and publishing a recording of allegedly defamatory comments made against Plaintiffs while Plaintiffs attempted to retrieve their son's car after their son was pulled over for a driving violation. Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Protective Order and/or Temporary Restraining Order/Permanent Injunction [#76] in order to prevent the dissemination of the video recording made by Defendant Hopp. The Court concurs with the recommendation that Plaintiffs' Motion [#76] be denied for the following reasons: (1) Plaintiffs cannot meet the standard for good cause as required for a protective order; (2) Plaintiffs have already filed the allegedly sensitive material in their own documents with the Court, making it part of the public record; (3) the Illinois eavesdropping statute, 720 ILCS 5/14-2, does not apply; and (4) the defamation claim has already been dismissed in a previous order [#50].
Accordingly, the Court now adopts the Report & Recommendation [#88] of the Magistrate Judge in its entirety. Plaintiffs' Motion for Protective Order and/or Temporary Restraining Order/Permanent Injunction [#76] is DENIED. This matter is referred to the Magistrate Judge for further proceedings.
