Research Initiative for Scientific Enhancement (RISE)
The RISE Program was created by the National Institutes of Health-National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) to enhance the research environment at minority-serving institutions. The overall goal is to increase the interest, skills, and competitiveness of biology and chemistry majors in pursuit of biomedical research careers. Students matriculate into PhD programs in biomedical sciences (Alumni Current Satus).
The RISE program at Barry University offers support for unique undergraduate student research education activities, which includes an introductory summer Research Beginnings Workshop, Building Foundations in Research (BFoRe) through on-campus faculty mentored research experiences, Summer Research Experiences (SRE), problem-based learning course enrollment, professional presentations at Barry and at scientific meetings, tutoring and time-management workshops, and graduate school preparedness. The RISE program also supports the Research Opportunities and Directions in Science (ROADS) club to encourage freshmen and sophomores to become engaged in biomedical science research.

D'Lo is sporting a new t-shirt this week.. "You're Looking at the Real Deal." If he's my deal - I fold.
Raven dominates from the start, and mocks Brown's shakey-neck gimmick. D'Lo knocked Raven to the floor several times, only to be helped up by his Apostles. As Julio is helping his mentor back into the ring, Brown launches himself to the outside (clearing the top rope) taking out both men. Very impressive!
With Raven down, Brown went up top and came down with a less than spectacular frog splash. Julio entered the ring with a superkick, allowing Raven to roll his man. The referee, who was busy chatting with Alexis, only counted 2. After a ref bump, the Nest dusted off an old chestnut by tossing white powder into Brown's eyes. Blinded by talc, the former Euro-Continental champion attacks Julio and Laree only to get caught in a DDT by his actual opponent. I think D'Lo's TNA-debut steam has finally run out.
Nice video package is shown promoting Raven's World title match in 14 days. This is easily the most hyped match and most thought out feud TNA has had since it's inception. I can't wait for the payoff.
Don West and Mike Tenay introduce themselves and the rest of the program.
TNA reporter Goldylocks is in the Sports Entertainment Xtreme locker room. Glen Gilberti is firing up the troops and talking about each man's opponent for the evening.
Both men come to the ring sporting jeans, t-shirts and boots. The match starts off in typical brawling fashion. Stomps, punches and tosses into the ring post on the outside. C'mon A.J. Stylize him!
As an aside - I really wish TNA wouldn't feature these matches where they battle into the crowds. It only serves to illustrate how small the arena actually is.
They battle on the outside for 10 minutes or so before A.J. finally gets busted open and is seen wearing a bright crimson mask. Members of S.E.X. work on Styles until D'Lo Brown decides to interject and fights them all off. The match is back down to a 1-on-1 encounter and is finally back in the ring, where Styles nailed a pump-handle backbreaker and a snap-side suplex.
Styles decides to go hardcore smacking Gilberti with several chairshots before getting caught with a kick to the midsection and a Stonecold Stunner. The stunner forced Styles' chin into the chair he was holding. Painful looking spot. Gilberti covers and wins.
Goldy is back outside with Dusty Rhodes. Dusty reminding Jarrett (who hasn't arrived yet) that there is nothing more important than being NWA champion. Eric Watts walks by and mocks Rhodes a little. Dusty puts himself over saying he is "The best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be". Oh, Dusty - Bret Hart's lawyer is on line two.
When he turns his back, Watts tosses his duffel bag at Rhodes' beefy back. While it appeared soft and cushy, the Dust went down like a ton of bricks. Weak segment. Thankfully it was short.
The champion was led to the ring by Trinity. Kash asks for the mic before his opponent is introduced. He says he is embarrassed and ashamed of the way he acted towards his valet last week. He says she really was part of the reason he became champion and she deserves his support if she decides to wrestle other men. He says he will always have her back. He asks her to accept his apology and continue their team. He drops the mic and plants a kiss on her. Trinity smiles and they go into their Impact Players style pose. I smell a swerve.
Sanders is introduced.
Kash starts in control but is quickly overpowered by the Above Average One. Sanders slows the pace and uses a variety of suplexes and various ground attacks. A nice fish out of water spot ended with fierce looking double clotheslines. That allowed Trinity to climb the ropes and look for a moonsault - but Sanders ran to the corner and pushed her to the outside.
Kash added a new move to his arsenal this week: a springboard-corkscrew-moonsault. Nice.
Trinity jumps into the ring and hits a spin kick and moonsault. Kash recovers, runs to the corner and comes flying out with the same moonsault Trinity just hit, but Sanders reversed this one into a short powerbomb. Only a two count.
The finish came with Sanders laying against the the ropes when Kash hit his summersault Van-Terminator. Amazing! 1-2-3.
Kash takes his title and heads for the ramp. The Harris' enter the ring and grab Trinity. They threaten to squash her if Kash doesn't return. The X champ smiles pointing to his title and leaves. Trinity takes an H-Bomb.
Goldy is backstage with the New Church. Father James Mitchell calls out Perry Saturn, saying that he has caused him problems over the last couple weeks. Above all, he cost him a great drinking partner in Sandman. Mitchell then says he has gone into Saturn's past to produce "the flesh-eating dragon" that will slay him tonight.
Perry asks for Mitchell to send his mystery opponent outOe. YES YES YES n It's Mike Awesome!
Awsome, who has been spending time in New Japan since his WWE release, is sporting long hair once again (no mullet) and is looking considerably thicker around the middle.
On the outside, Awesome connected with one of his old ECW spots - leaping over the safety rail and hitting his man with a spear. Awesome then set up a table on the outside that will come into play later on.
Saturn muscles the former ECW champ up with several brutal looking Germans.
Awesome landed his top rope splash and the ref's hand landed three times. Saturn rolled the shoulder at three and the ref screamed "Twoooo!". Ooops.
Without warning or reason, Sandman and New Jack crashed the party attacking Awesome only to be jumped by the New Church.
The match is thrown out.
I am really enjoying Saturn's newly developed shoot-fighting style. He appears to be working stiffer and attempting to make his matches look as real as possible.
It was great to see Awesome again, but he did look heavier and considerably slower. Here's hoping he can return to his 1999 form.
We then see a pre taped interview by Mike Tenay with America's Most Wanted.
Chris Harris is saying that there isn't an issue with the team, and the fact that he is friends with members of S.E.X. outside the ring is no big deal. Harris says his recent singles matches meant nothing as far as the future of their tag team is concerned. Apparently Harris still wants to re-capture the NWA tag titles with his partner James Storm. He goes on to say that when "The Cowboy" faces David Young this week, he will have his back.
Goldylocks (boy she gets around), is now backstage with David Young, Sonny Siaki and Desire. She asks Young why he attacked Athena last week. Sonny tells "Goofylocks" to mind her own business. He then re-introduces himself, "The Ace in the Hole". This gimmick of his has really grown on me. Goldy tells us that Siaki was scheduled to face Storm tonight. Siaki replies with a disgusted look saying, "Ace in the Hole face a nobody? Do you know Ace in the Hole's schedule? I'm a corporation. Ace in the Hole is very busy". He was hysterical.
Young interrupted and told Storm how he was going to kick his butt, etc etc...only to be interrupted by the Ace in the Hole. He told Young that everyone in S.E.X. is hip, but Young's promos suck! "This is not the Beverly Hillbillies. From here on out I'll do all the talking."
DAVID YOUNG VS. iCOWBOYi JAMES STORM
Melba Toast versus Vanilla Frosting. How exciting. Both men are in desperate need of emergency charisma transplants.
Young, starts the match off showcasing his power and the odd dropkick. Storm is looking very sluggish, but did redeem himself with a nice top rope moonsault.
After 4 or 5 minutes, Storm botched his finisher, the 8-Second Ride but went for the pinfall anyway. The ref was about to count three but was pulled out of the ring by The Ace In Hole. Storm went for another 8 Second Ride, but was distracted by Desire. Young hit his version of the Anderson Spinebuster and picked up the W. America's Most Wanted is still winless in singles competition.
Goldylocks is backstage and believe it or not - New Jack and Sandman are playing Chess. This is priceless!
She wants to know if they can co-exist in their tag match this week after last week's issues. Sandman says they are brothers of extreme blood, and hints that the boys from ECW will always stick together. New Jack reminds everyone that he is extreme and he is here for blood. He doesn't want a belt, because if he wins won he'll head straight to the local pawn shop! Nice.
Sandman tells New Jack he's in Checkmate. They scream at each other, Sandman cracks a beer on his forehead - good times were had by all.
The Brothers of Extreme enter separately, allowing the New Church to double team New Jack. Sandman hits the ring, and starts the match with a top rope huricanrana. Haven't seen him attempt that in years! Nicely done too.
The match quickly slowed to a stomp fest.
New Jack is set up on the table outside the ring (the same one Mike Awesome opened up earlier) as Slash attempts to leap from the top. Sandman interrupted with a cane shot only to be attacked by Lee and Father Mitchell. Mitchell put his evil spike into Sandman's head. That brought out Saturn, which brought out Awesome.
Awesome picked Sandman up in a Razor's Edge position and tossed him to the floor, through the table! Ouch. Slash rolls New Jack into the ring and gets the win.
The battle continues until the lights go out. When they come back up, JUSTIN CREDIBLE is in the ring!! Singapore cane in hand, Credible destroys the New Church and electrifies the crowd! The four ECW alumni celebrate and drink beers together. The crowd went bananas!
VS. AMAZING RED and JERRY LYNN
"The X-Division Dream Team" is cheered heavily by the crowd as Triple X is once again in action without Low-Ki. I'm guessing he's still in Japan.
The action in this match is lightning fast and very difficult to do justice via a written account. Unbelievable high spots by the Amazing Red early on, and great ring work by "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels.
Skipper entered the match with a slingshot corkscrew plancha onto a prone Jerry Lynn. On the outside of the ring, Lynn took out both members of Triple X with a springboard summersault, and then held the champions, allowing Red to come from the ring and leap over the ropes into a fantastic twisting dive. Welcome to Highspot City!
Incredible series saw Red take Skipper down only to have him Matrix out and then get caught with an unbelievable Infra Red! (Pendulum Style powerbomb, where Red starts on his opponents back).
Daniels locks Red into the Koji Klutch! This match is awesome. Lynn makes the save and allows Red to launch a series of cartwheel spin kicks before finally making the hot tag.
Lynn takes on both men while Red recovers. Jerry then put Daniels up in an Electric Chair position when Red came off a springboard onto Daniels and took him down with a Hurricanrana. WOW!
Red went up top again when he was attacked by that mystery luchador.
That storyline has become a little cloudy - especially since we haven't seen Konnan in two straight weeks. Guess we'll have to wait and see where TNA takes us with that one. After he did his damage the Spider wearing masked man ran to the dressing room.
With Red injured outside the ring, Lynn took a beating at the hands of both men. He took the Angel's Wings and several incredible double team maneuvers. Lynn then reversed a move and came up with a small package / victory roll / perfect bridge for the win! It was the single best roll-up I've ever seen.
As the new champs celebrate they are attacked by Triple X.
Jeff Jarrett makes the save but only to clear the ring so he can call out Raven. Raven doesn't show but he is attacked by Alexis and Julio (who he challenged earlier in the show). Jarrett is wiping out both Apostles with chairshots while the ring crew sets the ring up for a Clockwork Orange House Of Fun match - as Double J had requested earlier.
Raven's Clockwork Orange House Of Fun match
JEFF JARRETT VS JULIO DINERO AND ALEXIS LAREE (Non-Title Match)
Now in the ring, Dinero and Laree attack Jarrett with all of the weapons provided by the Clockwork Orange set up. There are nunchucks, steel gates, chairs, canes, etc. They dominated the World Champion for several minutes.
After a powerbomb to Laree on top of Dinero and a couple trash-can shots, Jarrett was back in control. He continued to beat on Raven's crew while waiting for the leader to make his appearance.
Jarrett set both family members up on a table and went up to the top rope. Raven picked his spot and clobbered the champ with a trash can lid. He then took Jarrett up and over with a superplex through the table and through Dinero and Laree! I love it!
The Raven Effect follows as Julio Dinero rolls on top for the win.
A solid show with not one, but two big surprises in Awesome and Credible. Match of the night, and maybe of match of 2003 had to have been the tag title bout. Absolutely a must see. If you missed this week's show, order the encore.

Hmmm... is that what's happpened to the release date of Scavolini's Nightmare? - it's slipped a year out of sync with your bullshit promises? Hence you no longer even address questions about it, such is your dereliction of your customer service duties.

Seems like Code Red was right all along. Fanboys will BITCH no matter what you do - there is no winning. Code Red is finally releasing two of their most long awaited titles (RITUALS and NIGHTMARE) and instead of fans rejoicing, the trolls still come out complaining and asking for a different movie instead. I'm sure when BUTCHER BAKER does show up, the idiot fanboys will then have to find another movie that isn't out yet to whine about. Jeezums, these morons are really irritating. Go outside and breathe some air and take a hike.

Hey this thread is about Last Chase not a release of Butcher Baker aka Night Warning. I think Code Red likes to make money if he had this why not release it or maybe he does this on purpose to see you all whine and cry to get a buzz for the movie.

An answer is due regarding Nightmare & Butcher,Baker, Candlestick Maker.
Even if that answer is "Nothing yet". Anything would be better than being ignored.
I'm hoping Navarre is actually releasing Rituals this coming Tuesday. Know anything about that? :P------The Unkown Commentor

Now, Now before you get yourself all worked up into a little tantrum -- I pre-ordered "Nightmare" at diabolikdvd.com on the 12th. Ask your mommy if you can use her credit card to do the same.

Thanks for the info on this! I feel if the God's Bloody Acre recall was handled with the same information given up front, people wouldn't have gotten caught up in paying through the nose for a copy.

It's really incredible how some people are clueless... If no news about a movie is posted it's because there are no new news to post about it. When people became so retarded that they loose all the ability to use simple concept like logic and deduction?
The dvd was already pre-ordered since the day it became available, so take your time to correct the problem. Unlike the troll I can wait, I have a life, I'm able to see that you deliver better than most label this year and I thank you for that.

I got my copy of The Last Chase from Amazon (pre-order), and I see what you mean. Poor ol' Lee Majors talks without moving his mouth. Amazon has already sent an email saying a replacement will ship when available, so just saying thanks for fixing things.

elektric necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 585 diseños de 141 diseñadores freelance.
We are looking for a brand new logo and associated branding materials. The design will need to be clear, modern, contemporary, have a high quality top end feel to it with a degree of impact to the logo. It should reflect the feel of a large company
Although we are a start up company, involved in the Electrical Contracting Industry - Electricians - in the UK, we have aspirations towards rapid growth, and it is therefore very important for us to portray the correct image, namely one of a larger company. Our work is primarily in the domestic market although this will expand to include commercial and industrial in time. We require a logo, business card, letterhead, fax coversheet and compliments slip.
We have not decided on a particular palette so the colours are up to you. The design should be contemporary, clear and distinct, with a high quality feel. The name may be started with a Capital 'E' or a small 'e'. We have a tagline which must be incorporated - Electrical Solutions. Please note that we don't wish for designs to contain volt and lighting symbols as these have an association with shock, which we want to avoid. Brown, Blue and yellow/green (earth cable is striped green/yellow in the UK) are the core cable colours in the UK . We are very keen to have these incorporated in the design as well as some form of house or abode as we are domestic electricians. In addition to this, we must have the tagline 'Electrical Solutions'. The logo itself should also be a stand alone item i.e. not incorporated into the first letter of 'elektric' or any part of it. It must be capable of being printed on its own. The final logo file should also be high res enough for placing on vehicle sides and possible company signs for offices. Please also see our comments on the competition page.
Logo incorporating any part of word 'Elektric'
shock/volt/lightning symbols

We investigate whether geographic proximity between corporations and the IRS affects tax examinations and tax avoidance. Our tax compliance setting provides evidence on the effects of proximity-induced information asymmetry on adversarial parties. Corporations avoid more tax when located closer to IRS territory managers unless they are also close to an IRS industry specialist.The IRS is more likely to audit nearby firms, and assesses more tax per hour from nearby taxpayers, except during constrained budget years.

Prior theoretical research in accounting concludes that companies facing strong competition from other companies will voluntarily disclose less information to the public than companies facing less competition because they do not want to provide information that can be used by their competitors. However, the prior empirical research on this issue has been mixed. We examine this issue empirically in a more powerful research setting than used in prior research: Large import tariff rate reductions that increase competition from foreign competitors. We find that companies in industries experiencing a sudden decrease in tariff rates significantly decrease their voluntary forecasts of future earnings. Management earnings forecasts are a common voluntary disclosure that has the potential to provide useful information to competitors, so this decrease in management forecasts following a tariff rate reduction that increases competition is consistent with the prior theoretical findings that companies generally try not to provide their competitors with helpful information.

We use experimentation to show that a statement emphasizing the importance of accuracy can actually lower the effectiveness of an incentive scheme to motivate accurate production. The likely reason is that too much emphasis on accuracy can suppress a more open production strategy that tolerates and corrects mistakes as a means to greater long-term efficiency.

We provide evidence that employee stock option footnote disclosures for as many as twenty percent of a large sample of public companies (a) are not internally consistent, and (b) the inconsistencies are likely due to unintentional errors that were not detected by their auditor. We also provide evidence that these errors make it more difficult for financial statement users, including sophisticated analysts, to forecast the stock option expense component of net income.

The authors find that corporate state effective tax rates and aggregate state collections increased slightly following FASB's issuance of Financial Interpretation No. 48. That guidance required firms to record liabilities for tax positions that failed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold, arguably having a more important effect in multi-state taxation where audit detection is lower than in federal taxation.

Recently, many companies have changed the model they use to value their employee stock option from the Black-Scholes model to the more flexible lattice model. Some argue that this model can provide more accurate option values, while others argue that its added flexibility can be used to understate reported option values. We investigate which is the case, whether companies use the added flexibility of the lattice model to report their option expense more accurately, or whether they use the added flexibility of the lattice model to further lower their stock option expense and increase reported income. We find that firms adopting a lattice model increase understatement of reported option values relative to firms that continue to use the Black-Scholes model. In contrast, we find no evidence that companies use a lattice model to improve the accuracy of reported option values. Thus, the evidence in this study indicates that firms adopt and implement lattice models primarily to lower reported option values.

Our study suggests that investors' reactions to firms' derivative use (or non-use) are more complex than previously contemplated. The prior research in this area concludes that derivative use has a positive effect on firm valuation, presumably because of the greater decision making care exhibited by those firms who choose to hedge risks via derivatives. Our study extends these findings by showing that this positive relationship is influenced by industry norms, and that the relationship can actually reverse when a firm's choices regarding derivatives are not the same as the industry norm. We also show that industry norms are viewed as stronger indicators of appropriate behavior than are firm norms.

FD's prohibition against the selective disclosure of material information eliminates the information advantage enjoyed by certain investors and analysts and thereby provides a more level playing field for all investors. However, an unintended consequence of Fair Disclosure is a reduction in the total amount of information available in the market (i.e., a "chilling effect") for small or high-technology firms. Ongoing research suggests that private access to management continues to provide select analysts or investors with non-material information used to complete the "mosaic" of information.

The substantial stake of family owners means that these owners stand to bear a large share of the costs of such price protection and the costs of litigation. Family owners therefore have strong incentives to demand conservative financial reporting in order to reduce legal liability and mitigate agency costs. Family owners are also actively involved in the firm as directors so that they have abilities to influence financial reporting policies. Thus we expect to find that conservatism increases with family equity ownership.

Contrary to conventional wisdom that short-term guidance fosters earnings management, we find that firms providing short-term earnings guidance exhibit lower absolute abnormal accruals, indicating these firms engage in less earnings management. Regular earnings guiders also exhibit less earnings management than do less regular guiders.

If you are looking at a bank's financial statements to try to predict the extent to which their loans will go bad, you should look at historical loan costs minus the loan loss reserve rather than reported loan fair values. This is important because many people (including standard setters) claim loan fair values are better at predicting credit losses.

An enhanced relationship program is a program under which taxpayers commit to voluntarily disclosing uncertain tax positions to tax authorities in exchange for timely resolution of these uncertainties. Our model suggests that despite the inherent adversarial nature of the taxpayer-tax authority relationship, these programs are mutually beneficial in many settings because in the program, taxpayers claim fewer weak positions and tax authorities are able to avoid auditing strong positions (on which they recover less than their audit cost, on average.)

Our results advance the burgeoning management accounting literature on creativity-contingent incentives by suggesting that reward systems are more likely to promote creativity through collaborative, rather than independent individual, efforts. We also provide important insights into when and why tournament pay can boost creativity in organizations.

By revealing bad earnings news on a timely basis, managers can significantly reduce the chance of securities litigation. Earlier studies suggested that bad earnings "warnings" actually triggered lawsuits, but we use a new research approach and find that timely disclosure clearly reduces the threat of litigation.

When Congress passes a tax break like a credit for buying equipment, competitive forces may shift that explicitly benefit other parties, like the supplier in the form of higher prices, employees in the form of higher wages, or customers in the form of lower prices. Prior to the landmark Tax Reform Act of 1986, the benefits of nearly all tax preferences for corporations were shifted to others, but after TRA86, we find that corporations retain about two-thirds of the benefits. Thus, after TRA86, explicit tax preferences increase the after-tax income of the corporations receiving the preferences.

Not all analysts forecast or publish their long-term growth forecasts. Those that choose to publish their long-term forecasts issue more valuable recommendations and have more favorable career outcomes.

A disproportionate number of firms appear to just avoid losses, earnings declines, and miss analyst forecasts. While many academics attribute these findings to pervasive earnings management, others disagree. Our analysis of firms known to have manipulated earnings supports the earnings management explanation.

The world already knows London as one of the cities with property prices soaring. The high price of the property is more surprising after a penthouse (penthouse) at One Hyde Park, Knightsbridge, London, sold for 140 million pounds. Even more surprising, the penthouse has absolutely no internal partition walls, furniture, and even floor coverings.
The Daily Mail reports, covering an area of 1486.4 m2 penthouse is believed to have been purchased by someone from Russia or from Ukraine. Later, the identity of the man who bought the apartment was leaking. He was known by the name Akhtemov and coming from Ukraine.

Purchase Akhmetov became interesting because he bought a penthouse that still requires a lot of processing.

Unrestored or Partially Restored Doors
We are occasionally asked for a more economical purchase and are able to offer from a range of doors which have not been subject to our extensive renovation. Of course these doors then require your labour, but the result is a door finished by you at a very good price.
The individual door may require the following: repairs to the original locking areas and other cosmetic repairs; some may require clamping to achieve a better fit at the joints; others may need panels to be glued, and finally of course the door will always require filling and sanding before they are treated to your chosen finish.
With any of these doors we can always instead price for the complete refurbishment of the door, but due to our labour costs this will then be reflected in a much increased price.

Crytek's very beautiful, yet tremendously demanding Crysis game released in 2007 and its sequel Crysis Warhead launched in 2009 were technological breakthroughs of their time. Unfortunately, their hardware requirements were so high that even today's high-end hardware cannot provide decent performance with maximum quality. But according to Crytek, the demands of Crysis 2 will be much more moderate.
Minimum system requirements for highly-anticipated Crysis 2 game describe a personal computer with AMD Athlon 64 X2 2GHz or Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz microprocessor, ATI Radeon HD 3850 512MB or Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT 512MB graphics card, 2GB of memory and 9GB of spare hard drive space. The game will work on Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 operating systems. In fact, minimal requirements of Crysis 2 are not too much higher compared to the original Crysis.
Quite logically, the minimum system will launch Crysis 2 with minimum quality settings, which will not allow experiencing the game in full. In order to play the game the way its designers meant and a PC with recommended hardware configuration may easily include cream-of-the-creams of todays hardware. Still, there is a lot of hope that Crysis 2 will not become a technology demo and a benchmark because of its hardware requirements.
The CryEngine 3, which powers the Crysis 2 title, is developed for personal computers as well as for Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PlayStation 3 game consoles which are akin to PCs from 2005 2006 timeframe. As a result, the game engine itself is scalable and should be optimized to provide decent image quality amid smooth frame-rate even on low-performance system.

On Wednesday, executives from Verizon, Comcast, and various experts on anti-trust law and competition testified before a Senate committee to help decide the fate of a deal worth more than $3.6 billion that could reshape the face of Internet connectivity in the U.S. If it gets a green light, Verizon Wireless will purchase unused wireless spectrum from a consortium of cable companies. That deal, which was reached last December, included controversial agreements between the wireless carrier and cable providers, in which each arranged to market and advertise the other's services — in some cases through "quadruple play" packages that could include TV, Internet, landline and wireless phone offerings. Although telecom and cable executives vigorously argued that the agreements would ultimately benefit consumers, the Senate committee raised serious doubts about the future of Verizon's FiOS service, and of competition in home broadband and cable service entirely.
The end of competition
Ever since Congress passed the Telecommunications Act of 1996 — effectively deregulating the telecom industry in such a way that allowed phone providers and cable companies to start competing in each other's markets — competition has grown relatively robust. Phone companies offer DSL broadband service in thousands of markets around the country, along with the increasing push of FiOS fiber-optic broadband. Cable companies offer their own cable broadband as well as television service, of which FiOS now also competes. And both industries offer traditional landline phone services, and even wireless services in many cases.
But the proposed agreement between Verizon Wireless and the consortium of cable companies — which includes Comcast, Time Warner, and Bright House Networks — will see cable companies paying Verizon hundreds of dollars for each cable contract obtained through Verizon marketing, and vice versa.
Steven Berry, President and CEO of the Rural Cellular Association, which includes smaller wireless carriers such as T-Mobile, Sprint Nextel Corp, and MetroPCS, called this arrangement essentially a "non-compete" agreement, guaranteeing cable won't contend with Verizon on the wireless side, and Verizon won't compete with cable in cable services. In fact, Verizon has specified as part of the deal that it will resell a portion of its proposed 4G LTE service back to cable companies once it acquires the additional spectrum, ostensibly making the cable companies mobile network operators (MNOs) for Verizon wireless service.
Originally, the cable companies purchased the spectrum in question in order to establish their own wireless carrier to compete with the likes of Verizon and AT&T. But they never mobilized the resources to commit to that endeavor, and instead have opted to sell the valuable asset.
Spectrum crunch
If the wireless carriers are to be believed, the additional spectrum could not come at a more crucial time. As Randal Milch, executive vice president at Verizon, stated in his testimony, it is "no secret we are currently in a critical situation. Customer demand for mobile bandwidth is growing faster than currently available spectrum." He added that it was "critical that this previously unused spectrum be put to use to meet customers growing needs." According to some FCC estimates, mobile data use will exceed current capacity by 2014.
But the FCC has already announced a looming auction to allay those concerns, in which wireless carriers will have the opportunity to bid on up to 120MHZ of unused airwaves. And Verizon Wireless already owns the largest portfolio of spectrum holdings in the wireless business, a principle motivator for the now-infamous AT&T/T-Mobile merger attempt.
Professor Timothy Wu of Columbia University warned in his testimony that if the deal is completed, Verizon's spectrum holdings will actually be greater than T-Mobile and AT&T's combined — Verizon is simply acquiring its wireless bandwidth in a more subtle way. Wu also offered that for the last decade, Verizon has been the "clearest and strongest competitor to the cable industry," and that an agreement to essentially work together with cable companies in the future would severely harm customer choice.
The future of cable
FiOS television and broadband service, which Verizon has been rolling out in select locales since 2005, has been a vital competitor to cable in those markets. Although David Cohen, executive vice president at Comcast, assured legislators "there is nothing in this transaction that is going to stop us from continuing to try to beat the brains out of FiOS," he did not speak to the 85 percent of cable subscribers who do not currently have the option for FiOS.
And that's really what is at the heart of this debate: Verizon spent nearly $23 billion laying the infrastructure for FiOS in the comparatively small area that it currently serves — it's financial incentive is to continue to offer its services in those regions, and to continue competing with whatever cable has to offer there.
But in the majority of the country — otherwise known as the 85 percent of customers who don't yet have access to FiOS — this deal is basically a capitulation: Verizon has decided to give up on its own cable aspirations and instead collude with the companies that have already established themselves. As Senator Al Franken acknowledged during his questioning, it is "almost as if companies got in a room and decided to throw in the towel and stop competing with each other."
Innovation at stake
The most insidious danger of such an arrangement may not be the most immediate one. Verizon had stated publicly as early as 2010 that it intended to stop its FiOS build-out when it reached its current size. And presently, no new services to directly compete with cable broadband have yet been planned. But as Professor Wu cautioned, what is truly at risk is "the future of disruptive innovation." 4G wireless broadband services in the home — a fledgling technology that could replace the need for physical transmission lines completely, and is currently being trialed by Verizon (Home Fusion) and other wireless providers — has the best chance at being a cable and broadband replacement. How exactly is that service expected to grow and flourish if Verizon is busy bundling its wireless with Comcast's cable offerings? And if Verizon consumes this additional spectrum at the expense of other wireless carriers (and at a relative discount), it is also limiting the future services those providers might offer. It would be shortsighted indeed to allow an agreement to pass that not only limits current competition, but in fact preempts future innovation.
In the end, what on the surface appears to be run-of-the-mill corporate deal-making, may in truth represent a fundamental change in the way cable and broadband is delivered in this country. We could end up with a a "perpetual quadruple play" instead of innovation, as Professor Wu phrased it. It's as if Verizon has decided to double down in wireless, cable companies have done the same with their services, and all have agreed to scratch each other's backs at the expense of the consumer. Before 1996, the telephone and cable companies had a government-sanctioned duopoly over their services — if we're going back to that era, the least everyone involved can do is call a spade a spade.
