Shirley Collins
Saturday, July 19th, 2014, 6am - 9am
on Shrunken Planet with Jeffrey Davison
UK folk music legend Shirley Collins, without doubt one of the greatest British musicians of the 20th Century, played a pivotal role at a time when folk music was undergoing unparalleled revival and revolution. Though out of the music scene for more than three decades, her music nevertheless continues to be a source of inspiration for many. However, probably due in part to her enforced retirement in the late 1970s, her legacy is not as widely known as it should be. Musician David Tibet has been a key figure in bringing Shirley Collins' music once again to its rightful place. (And frankly, WFMU DJs have always had a place for her music.) Now, filmmakers Tim Plester and Rob Curry are raising funds on Kickstarter for "The Ballad of Shirley Collins", inspired in part by her poignant 2004 memoir "America Over The Water" and the connection her music has to the film "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" There simply is no musician more deserving of this growing renewal on interest and I would urge you to assist the filmmakers in their endeavor. Donations can be made up to July 22nd. The interview with Ms. Collins will focus mostly on the forthcoming documentary and the American sojourn which led both to her book and the film. For your additional enjoyment, there is also a tribute album coming out shortly, "Inspired by Shirley".

John Otway
Thursday, July 17th, 2014, 9am - Noon
on Surface Noise with Joe McGasko
The legendary John Otway bills himself as "Rock 'n' Roll's Greatest Failure," but few musicians have had such a long and colorful career with so many artistic successes. One of the great jesters of the punk era, famous for songs like "Beware of the Flowers 'Cause I'm Sure They're Going to Get You Yeah" and "Really Free," Otway could also deliver a tender ballad with the best of them. He's also staged some of the most memorable publicity stunts in the history of the industry, such as ensuring a Top 10 hit by having 900 fans sing back-up on his single (which, naturally, every one of them bought several copies of). Next week in New York, a documentary about his life called "Rock 'N' Roll's Greatest Failure: Otway the Movie" premieres, and we'll talk to John about the film and his 40-plus years of insanity.
Suzi Quatro
Thursday, July 17th, 2014, 3am - 6am

At age 64, she still tours extensively with no sign of slowing down. There's far too much in Suzi's history to touch on in a short interview, but lifelong fan Julie attempts to hit on some of the highlights.

His projects have been unpredictable, and his latest is no different.

The musical resumes of Valerie Gentile & Abbey Nex read like a who's who of contemporary goth and industrial: Cruxshadows, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, Angelspit, Combichrist, Genitorturers. But now they've joined forces as a duo, mingling Valerie's upbeat goth-pop with Abbey's darker industrial sound.
Musician/photographer Paul Zone
Wednesday, July 2nd, 2014, 9pm - Midnight
on The Evan "Funk" Davies Show
Paul Zone's new book Playground: Growing Up in the New York Underground documents a transitional time in New York music history: the years when a bridge from the glam-rock of the New York Dolls to the straight-up punk of The Ramones was being built by bands like The Mumps, Milk 'n' Cookies, The Miamis and The Fast. A teenaged Paul Zone was the singer in The Fast; he also became the resident DJ at Max's Kansas City, and went to numerous shows at the Mercer Arts Center, CBGB, Club 82 and other soon-to-be-legendary venues. Paul Zone's photos include on-stage and off-stage shots of Blondie, Suicide, Lydia Lunch, the Dead Boys, and many others -- including, perhaps more importantly, other prominent acts of that era that remain lesser-known today. After numerous worldwide exhibits his photos are collected for the first time in this exciting new book. Tune in at 9pm Wednesday night, July 2, as Paul Zone shares the stories behind the images with WFMU listeners.

Beth's back with "Would You Like To Go: A Curt Boettcher Songbook," a fun collection of '60s sunshine pop by the late songwriter best known for his work with The Association, Saggitarius and The Millennium. Beth Sorrentino plays some of those great tunes (and maybe a few of her own) live on Irene's show.

Thursday, June 19th, 2014, 3am - 6am
on Dark Night of the Soul with Julie
French chameleon Emilie Simon (pronounced Simone) finally drops in to WFMU for a solo performance preceding her Summer Stage concert in Central Park. Jumping from her unique electropop -- which uses natural sounds to complement her keyboard and guitar -- to composing the award-winning soundtrack to the original French version of March of the Penguins, from a collaboration with Tricky to the lush, orchestral sound of her latest album Mue, Emilie is a unique, unpredictable artist. After finding her CD in Montreal and falling in love with her strong and occasionally childlike voice (Kate Bush and Claudine Longet comparisons are inevitable) Julie invited Emilie after a Pianos show in 2011 but was unable to regain contact. In a session years in the making but planned with very little notice for either party, Emilie exceeds all expectations in this bilingual performance.

Her 2013 album, The Double EP: A Sea Of Split Peas, was released in the US on Mom + Pop Records. The world of Barnett has been described as "a hot, hazy place where suburban banalities and mindless procrastination can sound oddly compelling." Her single "Avant Gardener" is a hook-laden fog of country roots and discordant psychedelia in which Courtney sings of suffering an anaphylaxis-induced seizure during an Australian heat wave. This Wednesday, hear that song and more as Courtney Barnett and her band make their WFMU debut.
Kissey PLUS Sunrise Highway
Wednesday, June 18th, 2014, Noon - 3pm

The new disco funk supergroup Sunrise Highway will also swing by for an interview in anticipation of their live show that night at Glasslands. The trio comprises of vocalist Amy Douglas and multi-instrumentalists Tim Wagner & Nick Chacona, who have all had very rich careers, making groove-oriented new skool funk in a variety of different genres. But for this project, they wanted to make a the kind of classic sounding "AM Gold" fusion of funk that had that stamp of quality, that sounded great outside of the confines of the club. One listen to their results by rising star, Tensnake, was all it took, and the trio was instantly signed to his True Romance label. The Sunrise Highway EP is out now.

Shelly Sterling said Thursday that she would like to maintain for life her half-ownership of the Los Angeles Clippers, while allowing a new co-owner — who would replace her husband, Donald — to control the operations of the NBA franchise.
The statement clarified her long-term intentions, raising concerns among elected officials, civic leaders, fans and Clippers Coach Doc Rivers about the continued tenure of either of the Sterlings, who have owned the team for 33 years.
Los Angeles City Council President Herb Wesson called for a clean break from the Sterlings, while Rivers said Shelly Sterling's continued ownership could create "a very difficult situation" in which the team "wouldn't know really who was in charge."
The reactions came a day after Shelly Sterling said that — regardless of the NBA's pending vote to force Donald Sterling to sell the Clippers — it was her legal right to keep her half-interest in the team.
The Clippers have been operating under a cloud for two weeks, since the celebrity website TMZ released an audio recording in which Donald Sterling, 80, told a frequent courtside guest that he did not want to see her at games with black people. Days later, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver fined Sterling $2.5 million, banned him for life from the league and began a drive to get at least three-fourths of team owners to separate the Clippers boss from the franchise.
Shelly Sterling's lawyer on Thursday decried a "rush to judgment" against her and said that, as the Clippers co-owner, she "has the same right as anyone else in America to enjoy and control the fruits of [her] labors, and that includes deciding whether to keep or sell her 50% interest in the team."
As the Clippers prepared for Friday night's second-round playoff game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, observers said they didn't doubt that both Donald Sterling and his wife could wage a protracted legal battle to keep the franchise.
NBA officials said it would be at least two more weeks, following the issuance of formal allegations against Sterling, before fellow owners would be in a position to judge whether their longest-tenured partner should be allowed to stay in place.
Silver said when he announced his sanctions against Donald Sterling that "there have been no decisions about other members of the Sterling family." That would appear to provide some hope for Shelly Sterling to maintain her half-ownership, held in a family trust.
But analysts said that it could be difficult for Sterling's wife of 58 years to do so.
"If the ultimate objective is to get a new owner for the team — and it clearly is — it's highly unlikely that anyone would bid for 50% ownership," said Alan Rothenberg, a prominent attorney who worked for the Sterlings as the Clippers' president for 10 years. "And that's especially true if the other owner is someone connected to Donald — and with the same last name."
Attorney Pierce O'Donnell, representing Shelly Sterling, disagreed, saying: "Arrangements with a new owner group to their and Shelly's mutual satisfaction would not be difficult."
Civic activist and businessman Steve Soboroff said he believed that most of the public, players and sponsors would not accept ownership by Sterling's wife. Despite her claims to be estranged from her husband, the community will view her as a mere proxy for Donald Sterling, Soboroff said.
"My hope is that Donald and Shelly realize that their financial position will never be better than it is today," said Soboroff, who worked to bring the Clippers to Staples Center and to move their practice facility to the Playa Vista development near Marina del Rey. "The value of the team will decrease substantially if they fight this legally, so they should sell to benefit the people Donald and Shelly Sterling want to benefit most in the world, and that is Donald and Shelly Sterling."
A prominent agent for NBA players said a transfer of power from Donald Sterling to his wife would be "100%" problematic for the Clippers in attracting free-agent players. "That Shelly Sterling thing is not going to fly," said the agent, who did not want to be identified because of the sensitivity of the situation.
Although Shelly Sterling, 79, has not granted an interview since the recording was leaked, her representatives say she has been unfairly tarred for her husband's remarks and for multiple accusations of racial discrimination related to their apartment-rental business.
"They may share the same name, but they don't share the same values on race," attorney O'Donnell said.
O'Donnell also said that a court had never found that the Sterlings had discriminated while renting to 15,000 tenants over decades. The Sterling business paid a $2.8-million settlement in a discrimination case brought in 2006 by the U.S. Justice Department, but that agreement did not include an admission of guilt, O'Donnell noted.
Still, there has been little public support for the Sterlings.
L.A. City Councilman Bernard C. Parks said that "the community is looking for nothing less than a clean sweep," removing both Sterlings.
Ricky Chu, whose family has owned season tickets for more than two decades, said they would probably ask for a refund if either of the Sterlings remained involved. "At what should be the high point of franchise history, there's all this turmoil coming down," Chu said. "It's best to have them both gone."
Rivers, the Clippers' first-year coach, did not say whether he would remain with the team if Shelly Sterling kept her 50% interest. But Rivers, also the team's senior vice president of basketball operations, said that in the overall organization, "I can guarantee you every person wouldn't be on board" with her continued ownership.
Also contributing to this story were Times staff writers Bill Plaschke and Scott Reckard contributed to this report.

How Can I Offset My Air Travel?
The Fly Greener programme is voluntary and customers can offset the CO2 emissions of their flights by using our online carbon calculator. All money paid for the offsets goes directly to the running of these projects and Cathay Pacific does not profit from this transaction in anyway.
Customers may use cash or Asia Miles to purchase offsets to cover CO2 emissions from their flights or make a lump sum contribution to reduce their personal carbon footprint. Cathay Pacific also takes part in the programme as it offsets the CO2 emissions generated by staff on business travel on Cathay Pacific and Cathay Dragon flights.
We only source CO2 credit from independently reviewed and accredited projects that actually reduce CO2 emissions. We give preference to projects which are close to our major operations and our home base - such as in China.
Launched in 2007, the Fly Greener programme is the first provided by any Asian airline and the first programme in Asia to allow frequent flyer miles to be used for payment.

Jonathan Walker
Business Intelligence Manager
Make faster, better lending decisions
Jonathan Walker needed a faster, more reliable way to support risk management and marketing efforts at Local Government Federal Credit Union.
"We were trying to use Excel in a way Excel is not meant to be used,'' recalls Walker, LGFCU's Business Intelligence Manager. "We had big challenges consolidating our data across multiple sources."
In particular, LGFCU needed faster, more reliable insights about the impact of loan delinquencies on the balance sheet.
Excel was slow and unreliable. Manual data entry made errors common.
"Honestly," says Walker, "sometimes we would have to run programs overnight and just hope that something didn't break in the process and cause us to do it all over again.''
With SAS® Business Intelligence, analysis that once took hours now takes minutes.
"I was spending 80 percent of my time on data preparation before using SAS,'' explains Xin Pan, a Business Analyst on Walker's team. "Now that I spend less on data preparation, I can focus on building a credit risk management system."
Anticipating customer needs
Because SAS makes it easier to merge internal and external data sources, LGFCU can better anticipate the borrowing needs and understand the financial circumstances of all 230,000 members.
For example, LGFCU analyzes economic conditions in each of the state's 100 counties and merges the data with its member data for a more complete and accurate view of each community and customer.
"We've really been able to streamline the process using SAS," Walker says. "We have completely automated output without the need for tools such as Excel.''
Meanwhile, Marketing Strategy Analyst Danielle Brummitt has a better understanding of how to communicate with each member, thanks to the 360-degree customer view that SAS gives her.
"We can actually look at transactional data coming from the branches," Brummitt says. "We could not do that before we started using SAS. It was too much data."
Now we can work with billions of rows, and our processing time has improved, in some cases, from days to minutes.
Jonathan Walker
Easing the regulatory burden
Federal regulators keep a close eye on mortgage-assistance programs that many lenders, including LGFCU, offer to struggling homeowners.
In fact, one of the required compliance reports includes more than 70 calculated fields, which caused headaches using Excel.
"SAS has streamlined the process, allowing us to provide this data faster to the lending department,'' Walker says. "A federal regulator told me that the way we use SAS and analyze the data is something few other credit unions do and that our methods are paying off. It's just great having these SAS resources at our fingertips.''
Chris Koontz, the credit union's Data Integration Architect, applauds the ease of installation and the gains in computing power.
"It took about two days to install the BI component," he says. "Now we can work with billions of rows, and our processing time has improved, in some cases, from days to minutes."
Visualizing data
LGFCU is implementing SAS® Visual Analytics to give senior management a way to visualize data correlations across multiple variables and billions of rows to make faster, more informed decisions – whenever and wherever they need answers.
"Right now, we provide static dashboards – either in PDF or Excel format," Walker explains. "With SAS Visual Analytics, senior management will be able to interact with the data whether on the road through a mobile device or at their desktops. They'll be able to make decisions based on longer historical trends. And what they discover will spawn even more questions as they dive deeper into the data."
Make sound lending decisions based on an increasing amount of internal and external data, and make marketing decisions that are more relevant to each member.
Dramatic reduction in data preparation time and run time for analytics. In some cases programs that took hours – or even days – to run now take minutes.

Remembering Some of the Romances of Spring
But then sparkling memories like the Spring of 2008 come rushing into my brain like the Gulf of Mexico surf. This was the beginning of the "Magical Season of Rays Baseball", and their last time training in their hometown of St. Petersburg, Florida.
Breaking from the untold failures of the Rays recent Spring pasts has been accomplished. This new Spring edition of the Rays will again try and control the controllable from today's initial game throughout 2011, with an earmark to correcting past inferiors and mental stop signs. The team seems to be focused towards the immediate future, and what each of them can bring to the table.
But I am also a student of the past, and I personally know that sometimes you have to go back to review the past before you confidently step forward. So today as Rays shortstop Reid Brignac steps into the batter box against the Pittsburgh Pirates there will be a heightened sense of renewal in the air in Port Charlotte, Florida.
There is still the frsh pain smell on the wall of the Rays offices just beyond the Port Charlotte stadium pronouncing the Rays 2010 American League East title. Also in the air this Spring is a renewed crispness that only a great Spring Training baseball game can deliver. Potential meets expectations, just as the bat meets the balls this Spring.

I was so happy to be back at Camelback Ranch to watch my boys of Summer but when I heard about our Duke passing away, I took it very very hard.
Ah yes, Play Ball. One of the most beautiful two-word phrases in the English language. Enjoy the sun and all the great baseball! I think "Another Way" is the perfect philosophy for the Rays's 2011 season, representing future growth and new directions built on the past's strong foundation.
It's finally here! I wouldn't worry about being too much of an emotional fan. For me, it's the memories laced in that makes basbeall so special.
I was so taken back by the passing of Duke Snider. He was another of those "bums from Brooklyn( & LA)" that made baseball a romance as well as a game.
I always fear for the unfortunate same episode for Don Zimmer as he sees his circle of friends getting smaller and smaller over the years. It is one of the unfortunate events of our lives….we might pass, that should make us cherish and celebrate it more….Duke will be missed, and not by just those in dodger Blue.

There is nothing wrong with being a baseball romantic or an emotional fan or whatever you want to call it. For me, baseball is a great game and I love this time of year and the memories that come with it.
I know exactly wqhat you mean. The words, "Play Ball" ring in my ears like a Top 40 tune, echoing the same sweet refrain. Makes me giddy every time I hear them before a ballgame.
I think Maddon again has a mantras that is simple to remember and not too complex to having guys rationalize or generalize through their thought process. Just like the mathematical 9=8, or 9> 8, this philosophy is grounded in the plain fact that the team is going to call upon a different heroe every night to post a win….Possibly more of a team-grounding experience.
Rays Renegade
I like the way you phrased that….Makes baseball seem to fit like a glove into our lives.
Going to have to remember that quote….And I will attribute it to you when I tell the quote.
Rays Renegade
Sometimes it is an emotional wasteland out there. The belief that there is no crying in baseball must pertain to the regular season, because in the playoffs…I have seen tears of joy and pain….on either side of the field.
But I agree, the emotional side of this grand gasme can bring all of us to the quantum middle where we can celebrate what we all love individually about this great game.

Professor smacked for rant about killing children
'Next time, let it be your sons and daughters'
A University of Kansas journalism professor who suggested that the sons and daughters of National Rifle Association members would be good targets for a crazed killer has been suspended.
According to a report Friday at Campus Reform, which first uncovered the comment, school officials suspended David Guth in an announcement by KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little.
The statement said: "In order to prevent disruptions to the learning environment for students, the School of Journalism and the university, I have directed Provost Jeffrey Vitter to place Associate Professor Guth on indefinite administrative leave pending a review of the entire situation."
The statement said Guth's classes will be taught by others.
In a stunningly similar situation, see how a Democratic official told a speechwriter, "May all your children die."
The school also now is taking a position on Guth's comment, which he made on a private Twitter account earlier in the week after a dozen people were shot and killed by a gunman at the Washington Navy Yard.
"#NavyYardShooting The blood is on the hands of the #NRA," tweeted Guth, part of the university's William Allen White School of Journalism.
"Next time, let it be YOUR sons and daughters," he continued. "Shame on you. May God d— you."
The university said the contents of the professor's tweet "were repugnant and in no way represent the views or opinions of the University of Kansas."
"[I]t is truly disgraceful that these views were expressed in such a callous and uncaring way. We expect all members of the university community to engage in civil discourse and not make inflammatory and offensive comment."
An "AJ" responded to the professor's tweet: "Shame on you. I bet you think of yourself as a Christian while you are asking God to d— people and wishing their children dead."
Campus Reform writer Katherine Timpf said that when Guth was contacted, he not only confirmed he sent the tweet, he doubled down.
"Hell no, hell no, I do not regret that tweet," he told Campus Reform. "I don't take it back one bit."
After "AJ" criticized his statement, Guth said: "That moronic logic defies description," and "God's justice takes many forms."
The school's website notes Guth is an associate professor in the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications. He holds a bachelor's degree from Maryland and a master's degree from North Carolina-Chapel Hill.
He was associate dean of the school from 2004 to 2009 and chairman of the school's Strategic Communication track from 2000 to 2003.
Among his awards, according to the website, are the "Del Brinkman Teaching Award."
Guth previously was a public information officer for the North Carolina prison, probation and parole system, a broadcast journalist and a public relations consultant.
Campus Reform reported that Guth continued the conversation on his personal blog, Snapping Turtle.
"I don't wish what happened today on anyone," he said on the site. "But if it does happen again – and it likely will – may it happen to those misguided miscreants who suggest that today's death toll at the Navy Yard would have been lower if the employees there were allowed to pack heat."
In his interview with Campus Reform, he wished "a pox on our Congress and a pox on the NRA" for failing to have more gun control.
"It absolutely appalls me that after Newtown, we could not have come to some kind of sane agreement on something as simple as the number of bullets in a magazine or the availability of assault weapons," he said.
The suspect in the Navy Yard shooting Monday was identified as Aaron Alexis, who recently had been living in Texas but was working on a contract at the Washington location. He apparently was shot and killed by police after he had gunned down several dozen people, 12 of whom died of their wounds.
The NRA has not tried to intervene in the aftermath of the shooting tragedy but frequently has called for existing gun laws to be enforced.

All of a sudden, the U.S. has this funny thing called inflation, and no one knows what to do.
The Federal Reserve is shrugging off the May inflation report, saying numbers can be noisy. The market is a bit more worried that Janet Yellen & Co. are behind the curve. This divergence of opinions may pose a real test for the Fed.
To get a sense of what this all means, we have to go back to the communication policy that the central bank put into place as it began winding down its bond-buying stimulus program in December, called forward guidance. Basically, the Fed said it would replace its asset purchases with a promise that it wouldn't begin raising its key interest rate, now targeted near zero, until the economy closes in on the Fed's goals of a 2% annual rate of cost increases as well as full employment.
Those vague words are all well and good when the data are disappointing, and investors aren't expecting the economy to improve enough to meet Fed targets any time soon. But with data getting stronger, the economic forecasts of the central bank and of investors could begin to clash.
The consumer price index, a key gauge of inflation, increased by an annual rate of 2.1% in May, last week's data showed. Asked about those numbers at a press conference, Chairwoman Yellen called them "noisy," suggesting they were no reason to move up the timing of the first rate hikes just yet (See: 5 reasons the Fed isn't troubled by inflation).
Investors disagree, at least somewhat. Market expectations of inflation are around 2.29%, as calculated based on Treasury inflation-protected securities (See: The bond market is ignoring Yellen), above the Fed's target. Here's how that forecast has increased in recent sessions:
That hasn't necessarily translated to more hawkish market expectations about when the Fed will first raise rates, which traders now time for June of next year, according to CME FedWatch. And the market currently expects rates to rise slowly once they do get lifted. By the market's reckoning, the federal funds rate will be at only 1.79% at the end of 2016, according to James O'Sullivan, U.S. economist at High Frequency Economics. That's well below the Fed expectations of a 2.5% rate.
So beyond a nascent bid in the market for Treasury inflation-protected securities, inflation doesn't yet seem to be filtering into broader market fears. TIAA-CREF's William Riegel and Lisa Black write in a Monday note:
"There are really two points to emphasize here. First, the CPI is only one measure of inflation (and a "noisy" one at that). Instead of focusing on CPI alone, we should examine the trend across all measures. Second, we think the Fed will allow inflation to overshoot its 2% target. As long as inflation remains in the vicinity of this target and inflation expectations stay anchored, we are confident the Fed won't raise rates until late in 2015."
But if data continue to improve faster than the Fed expects, that clash may begin to get uglier as investors begin to pressure the Fed to tighten policy. It could look similar to what we briefly saw at the beginning of this year.
This week brings a number of economic gauges which may help flesh out the two sides of this debate. Chief among this week's data will be personal consumption expenditures, the Fed's preferred measure of inflation, due out Thursday.
As The Wall Street Journal's Jon Hilsenrath puts it in a piece titled "Fed Could Face Tougher Inflation Questions In Days Ahead":
"Should the central bank allow inflation to run above target for some time to make up for the long stretch it has been below target? That's a pertinent because the inflation terrain could be shifting on the Fed."

ABC Family wants "Pretty Little Liars" to keep its "A" game going: The network has renewed the popular teen mystery drama for a sixth and seventh season.
The series will continue through at least 2016. Season 6 is set to air mid-2015, and Season 7 is expected to roll out mid-2016.
"'Pretty Little Liars' has taken its place in the zeitgeist and reigns supreme in pop culture," said Tom Ascheim, ABC Family president, in a statement. "I am glad to bring another two seasons to our audience, because 'A' has a lot in store for our Liars."
The announcement comes ahead of the show's fifth-season premiere Tuesday night.
The Warner Horizon Television-produced drama remains ABC Family's top dog, ranking as its highest-rated series in its history across key demographics: adults 18-34 (1.5 million viewers on average), adults 18-49 (2 million), women 18-49 (1.7 million) and women 18-34 (1.3 million). In terms of total viewers, it averages 3.8 million.
And given the TV landscape these days, we'd be remiss not to note its hold on social media. Nielsen named it one of the most tweeted-about series in the last year.
It stands as the second series on the network to reach the 100-episode milestone, in the company of "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" — and, with its renewals, will claim the title of the longest-running original series on ABC Family.

Angels acquire closer Street from Padres in six-player trade
The Los Angeles Angels acquired All-Star closer Huston Street and prospect Trevor Gott from the San Diego Padres for minor leaguers Taylor Lindsey, R.J. Alvarez, Jose Rondon and Elliot Morris in a trade on Friday night.
Street (1-0) has 24 saves in 25 opportunities and a 1.09 ERA in 33 games this season.
"Were it not for the fact that we had the ability to control Huston for a year and two months, it would have been far more difficult to justify giving up the type of package that we gave up to get him," Angels general manager Jerry Dipoto said. "We had to get a guy like Trevor Gott included in the deal to replace some of that lost value.
"Huston's 30 years old, and arguably having his best season as a major leaguer," Dipoto added. "He's been one of the more consistent closers in baseball over time and one of the highest percentage conversion guys in the league for a number of years. I feel really strong about his character and what he brings to the clubhouse. It really deepens the back end of our bullpen and it gives us the opportunity to make games shorter."
Street was unavailable to the Padres during their 5-4 home loss to the New York Mets on Friday night. San Diego (41-55) is in third place in the NL West, 12 games off the pace.
"Losing is a miserable experience," Street said before the game. "I believe in the Padres' ownership. They want to win and they are not content with status quo.
"I blame the players for what's happened here."
In 10 major-league seasons with Oakland (2005-08), Colorado (2009-11) and San Diego (2012-14), Street is 35-27 with 258 saves and a 2.87 ERA.
He has converted 109 of his last 117 save chances, the best mark in the majors in that span.
Street, fifth on the active list in saves and 31st overall, said the Padres were upfront with him regarding the trade talks.
"I asked questions and they gave me direct answers," said Street, who was acquired by the Padres after the 2011 season. "They were extremely honest, said they were fielding offers, and asked me to not be offended."
Gott, 21, has split this season between Single-A Lake Elsinore and Double-A San Antonio. In 39 combined relief outings, he is 2-4 with 16 saves and a 3.56 ERA.
He was chosen as a mid-season California League All-Star.
Lindsey, a 22-year-old second baseman, was the No. 37 pick by the Angels in the 2010 draft. In four-plus minor league seasons campaigns, he has batted .289 with 43 home runs and 209 RBI.
He was rated as the Angels' top prospect by Baseball America.
Alvarez, 23, has gone 7-4 with five saves in two-plus minor-league seasons.
The 20-year-old Rondon was signed as an international free agent in January 2011. The Venezuelan infielder has played in 245 minor-league games, batting .300 with 146 runs and 116 RBI.
Morris, 22, has appeared in 28 games — 18 starts — in the Angels system, going 7-6 with a 3.43 ERA.

Israeli warplanes launched strikes on tunnels used for smuggling along the Gaza Strip-Egypt border and a building east of Gaza city on Saturday, causing damage but no casualties, security forces and the Israeli military said.
According to Reuters, an Israeli military spokesman conveyed the raid was carried out following the firing of a rocket and a mortar shell into Israel late on Friday. Both hit open areas.
"The aircraft struck two tunnels and a building that housed a munitions workshop. The air strikes are in response to what has become the daily launching of rockets and mortars into Israel," the Israeli army spokesman said.
A Hamas security source said two tunnels were targeted and the building that was hit was a marble factory. He said there were no casualties.

ATHENS, Greece — Greek police on Wednesday said they will demand that terrorism-related charges be brought against three Greeks and three Turks arrested for allegedly trying to ferry weapons and explosives in a speedboat to Turkey.
Greek authorities say they are investigating whether the Turks are involved in militant activities in Turkey, and a Turkish official alleged that one is a member of an outlawed leftist group that used a suicide bomber to attack the U.S. Embassy in Ankara in February.
Four of the suspects were arrested Tuesday near the Aegean Sea island of Chios, after coast guards intercepted their boat.
Officials said two anti-tank weapons, two pistols, four hand grenades, bullets and improvised explosive devices were found on board. Another two men were arrested later Tuesday on Chios.
All six were to be taken to a Chios prosecutor late Wednesday, under strict security measures.
Counterterrorism police also raided homes and offices in Athens, Thessaloniki and Corinth on Tuesday, and arrested two foreign nationals on allegations of possession of forged identity papers. Another 12 people were detained and then released without charges.
Greek authorities have not released the identities of any of the suspects.
But Turkish Interior Minister Muammer Güler said one of the three Turkish men detained Tuesday was Hasan Biber, accused of involvement in two attacks in Ankara in March, according to the state run Anatolia news agency.
He said Wednesday that Biber is a member of the outlawed leftist Revolutionary People's Liberation Party/Front (DHKP-C), which has claimed responsibility for the embassy attack.
DHKP-C has carried out assassinations and bombings since the 1970s, but has been relatively quiet in recent years. It is considered a terrorist organization by Turkey, the United States and the European Union.

WFUV Pop Quiz: Mary Chapin Carpenter
Mary Chapin Carpenter sat down with John Platt for an interview at the Canal Room in New York City in front of an audience of WFUV Marquee Members. They talked about her recovery from a near-death experience, her quiet life in rural Virginia, and her very personal new CD, The Age of Miracles. As they were finishing their conversation, Mary Chapin took a deep breath and submitted to the WFUV Pop Quiz.
Aside from gear, instruments or your band, what don't you go on the road without?
My pillowcase. It's just a certain kind of very thick cotton and it's not nylon or rayon or whatever you get in a hotel. It crinkles in my hands, it's soft against my cheek, and it smells like home.
What song do you wish you've written, and why?
There are so many. "Norwegian Wood" is one.
Who do you wish would have recorded one of your songs, dead or alive?
Bruce Springsteen - a song called "Naked to the Eye."
What song would you sing in the shower but never in public?
Something from a musical. [Sings "The Sound of Music."] I grew up in a house where we played musicals, and I always wanted to make a record where I could just sing every song from my favorite musicals. I've also always had this idea to cast a record and match a great artist of a certain genre to a great song from a musical and have the record be a fundraising record for Broadway.
What's the first album you bought?
Rubber Soul by The Beatles.
Someone finds your iPod and hits shuffle. What song do you hope does not come up?
I don't feel a lot of shame about what's on my iPod. I don't have a lot of songs that I could think of that I wouldn't want you to know. I'm iPod proud.
What's your favorite Bob Dylan Song?
"Tangled Up in Blue."
What job would you have if you weren't a musician?
I wish I could be a veterinarian.
Do you have any hidden talents that you can share?
I can fold my tongue back on itself. [Demonstrates, to great applause.]
Do you cook and, if so, what's your signature dish?
Yes I love to cook. I taught myself to cook when I was recovering from all those ailments and became addicted to cooking shows on television. Now there is nothing I love more than to have people over and cook for them.
What's the biggest misconception your fans or the media have about you?
That I am very serious. I think I have a hidden sense of humor.
What wacky thing would you do if you had the time, guts or money?
It's not wacky, but, fly in a hot air balloon.

What is it about Atlanta and Israel?
First, in response to a firestorm of criticism and vilification, Atlanta resident and iconic film star Jane Fonda issued a mea culpa about the wording of a petition she signed protesting the Toronto International Film Festival's celebratory spotlight on Tel Aviv. She said she signed it, "without reading it carefully enough, without asking myself if some of the wording wouldn't exacerbate the situation rather than bring about constructive dialogue". To her credit, Fonda did not remove her signature. But it was still an extraordinary move that reflected the intense pressure she was under. (This level-headed group of Atlanta Jewish leaders rose to her defense.)
And now, Jimmy Carter, reportedly in an effort to ease his grandson's political path to a Georgia state Senate seat, has written an open letter of apology to, well, the entire Jewish people.
An open letter to the Jewish community at the season of Chanukah from former President Jimmy Carter:
The time of Chanukah and the Christian holidays presents an occasion for reflection on the past and for looking to the future. In that vein, I wish to share some thoughts with you about the State of Israel and the Middle East.
I have the hope and a prayer that the State of Israel will flourish as a Jewish state within secure and recognized borders in peaceful co-existence with its neighbors and with all the Moslem States, and that this peaceful co-existence will bring security, prosperity and happiness to the people of Israel and to the people of the Middle East of all faiths.
I have the hope and a prayer that the bloodshed and hatred will change to mutual respect and cooperation, fulfilling the prophetic aspiration that the lion shall lie down with the lamb in harmony and peace. I likewise hope that violent attacks against all civilians will end, which will help set a better framework for commencing negotiations. I further hope that peace negotiations can soon commence, with all issues on the negotiating table.
