Astros' Luhnow talks about his first trade
Jeff Luhnow was named Astros general manager only six days ago. His first nine years in baseball were with the Cardinals. So, how is it that he pulled off a trade so quickly, and one that two rival executives called a win for the Astros? Allow Luhnow to explain how he and new Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington negotiated the deal that sent reliever Mark Melancon to Boston on...
Bobby Jenks' Harrowing Tale Of Back Surgery Gone Wrong
Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Bobby Jenks has had his fair share of back injuries throughout his career, but it pales in comparison to what he when through this offseason. Jenks underwent surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital in December to remove bone chips in his back. A seemingly routine procedure, right. Wrong. While Jenks has at his home in Arizona, he noticed a strange...

Ben Cherington Pretty Much Just Admitted that Bobby V Will Be Fired
During an interview with WEEI, Boston Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington went just short of saying that manger Bobby Valentine will be let go at the end of the season. Cherington said, "One of the things, as I look back at last offseason, that didn't go perfectly was simply the amount of time that we spent on the manager search and what that did to the rest of the offseason...

BREAKING: Red Sox Dismiss Manager Bobby Valentine
The Boston Red Sox has announced that manager Bobby Valentine would not return for the 2013 season. This comes as no surprise as the Red Sox struggled mightily this season and Valentine clashed with veterans, coaches, and front office officials. The Red Sox finished last in the AL East and had the team's worst record since 1964. Red Sox team president Larry Lucchino said...

Assorted notes from the GM meetings
INDIAN WELLS, Calif. — Assorted notes from the baseball general managers' meetings: • I already can hear the New York Mets' spin on right-hander R.A. Dickey now — the tried and true "Greedy Ballplayer" theory. Dickey, the Mets will say, wanted too much in a contract extension, so the team traded him rather than get suckered into a bad deal.

An early look at the Jarrod Saltalamacchia market
The Boston Red Sox weren't expected to sign a catcher this offseason but reached agreement Saturday on a two-year, $6.2 million contract with David Ross, as first reported by Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- James Mallory, a man charged in connection with the murder of 15-year-old Gregory Holt in April, is now facing felony charges in a completely unrelated incident.
According to a criminal citation, the incident took place on Tuesday at Louisville Metro Corrections, where Mallory is incarcerated.
Corrections officers say Mallory threw a cup of urine on a work-aide, and when confronted by jail staff, he told a sergeant , "You know, I'm looking at the death penalty. You're next."
He also allegedly said, "You know my charges, and you're next."
The correction's officer wrote in the citation that, according to his reputation, Mallory, "carries out his threats."
He's been charged with assault and terroristic threatening.
Mallory is accused in connection with the shooting and killing of 15-year-old Gregory Holt in his apartment on Clover St., near Dixie Hwy., on April 11. He was a student at Farnsley Middle School.
Anthony Hogan, Jr. and Cannon Curtis Pendergrass were also arrested in connection with the murder.

Merrimack polls open today
There is one contested race. School board incumbents Christopher Ortega and Shannon Barnes and Gary Krupp, a member of the school district budget committee, are running for two spots on the school board.
Running unopposed for two slots on the town council are incumbent Daniel Dwyer and former councilor David Yakuboff. Councilor Jackie Flood has decided not to seek re-election.
Voters will be asked to decide on a $28.7 million town operating budget that would keep the tax rate steady at $5.25 per $1,000 of assessed valuation. Voters will also be asked to approve a $66.3 million operating budget for the school district, and a new contract with teachers that represents an increase of about $1.65 million in salaries over the next three years.

Jonah Goldberg: GOP must run gauntlet of racism accusations
If the GOP wants to win more black votes, it will need to get a lot more "racist."
The scare quotes are necessary because I don't think the Republican Party is racist now (and, historically, the GOP has a lot less to answer for than the Democratic Party does).
But that hasn't stopped a lot of people from slandering Republicans as racist for one reason or another.
Right now, many in Washington - particularly the leadership of the Congressional Black Caucus - insist that Republican attacks on U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice are racist and, yawn, sexist. The basis for this claim is that some Republicans are calling Rice unfit for the soon-to-be-vacated job of secretary of state. More specifically, they're cross with Rice for what they contend to be her dishonest and incompetent handling of the Benghazi scandal.
And, because Rice is a black woman, well, blah, blah, blah. Racism! Sexism!
Never mind that Republicans haven't had a white secretary of state since Lawrence Eagleburger concluded his term two decades ago. Never mind that Republicans appointed the first black secretary of state ever (Colin Powell) and the first black female secretary of state ever (Condoleezza Rice, arguably the star of the GOP convention in August).
Also, never mind that Rice's handling of Benghazi - and several other matters - can quite defensibly be dubbed incompetent.
But that doesn't stop Democrats or liberal pundits from crying racism.
Just consider some recent examples from over the summer. When Mitt Romney visited Michigan, he joked about not needing a birth certificate to prove he was from there. Not very funny? OK, sure. Poor taste? Eh, maybe, I guess. "The basest and the most despicable bigotry we might be able to imagine"? Errr, no. And yet that's what one respected "expert" on race, Michael Eric Dyson, called it on MSNBC. Rather than show some skepticism at the claim, MSNBC host Alex Wagner agreed that Romney was "scraping the very bottom of this sort of racist other-ist narrative."
At the GOP convention, MSNBC host Chris Matthews explained that "Chicago" was a racially loaded code word. Fellow host Lawrence O'Donnell said Republican convention speakers were reaching "for every single possible racial double entendre they can find." His sole proof? Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell made a joke about Obama playing a lot of golf.
Now, the cynical motivations behind this relentless drone of slander and stupidity are too numerous to count. Such moral bullying makes white liberals feel better about themselves. It scares moderates and centrists away from the Republican Party, and it no doubt helps dissuade wavering blacks from even thinking about giving the GOP an honest look. Obviously, it helps boost black voter intensity on Election Day. It also does wonders to stifle journalists terrified of having their racial bona fides questioned in any way. And it helps a feckless left-wing black political class explain away their own failures. Racial slander is like duct tape: There's no limit to what you can do with it.
It's worth pointing out that such slander isn't used to get blacks to vote Democratic in the first place. They already do that.
But can you imagine how much worse it will get if Republicans actually do reach out to black community (as they should)?
One of the points of racial slander is to signal that only liberal policies are guaranteed to be nonracist (even when such policies were forged with racist intent, like the Davis-Bacon Act). This is why the Congressional Black Caucus insists on calling itself the "conscience of the Congress."
That's why policies like school choice are routinely denounced as racist, even though they are largely aimed at improving the lives of inner-city blacks trapped in bad schools. Teachers unions don't like school choice, ergo it's racist.
Any serious attempt by the GOP to win black votes won't involve Republicans copycatting liberal policies. It will require going over the heads of the black and white liberal slanderers to offer a sincere alternative to failed liberal policies on schools, poverty, crime, etc. The more effective that effort, the more the GOP will be called racist.
When Romney, whose father marched with Martin Luther King Jr., spoke to the NAACP, Michael Tomasky of the Daily Beast dubbed him a "race-mongering pyromaniac," primarily for using the term "Obamacare" - a term Barack Obama used himself.
Just imagine the desperate, pathetic attacks in store for a more effective Republican.

ill iterations
I am a writer. My job includes:
Coming up with names like Playbutton.
Producing race-related content that some have described as troll-bait, which others see fit to syndicate on PBS.
Creating the public face and helming the strategic planning of various design-based startups for Imprint Lab.
Copywriting for a cane company, a sunglass brand, and a few different interactive platforms.
I believe Asians have big dicks, and promote this belief, especially to gay Asians. That might be why the Asian American Writers Workshop likes me on their board.
Asians came up with emoji, in case you didn't already know.
I review books and film for a lot of people. Including but not limited to The Village Voice and Guernica. I decided to name-drop these two publications so I don't come across as strictly an Asian-Am writer.
Did I mention I sell gay Asian paraphernalia?
I used to be a flack for Vertical and still contribute sporadically to Giant Robot when they want an opinion.
These days I am a regular contributor to DAME Magazine, where I talk about women in executive positions, make animated gifs and fake movies about dope women in the cub cougar set.
Also the Editor-in-Chief of Paperhouses, where we interview rockstars like Ai Weiwei and roadies like Tucker Viemeister.
I'm constantly working on screenplays and novels and standup routines, none of which are published here (or anywhere really), but check in on this blog for the detritus.
My favorite movie is West Side Story.

This is the website for Nurse First Community Interest Company.
Nurse First is a programme for health and social care professionals who want to create positive change for people and communities.
It is an intensive 21-day residential programme that runs over a year and includes learning sets and coaching support. It works by:
- creating innovative solutions to clinical challenges
- accessing the funding needed to make these solutions happen
- implementing the solutions inside the organisation
As part of the programme,participants are challenged to design, raise funding for, and deliver a real-world project to improve health outcomes in their local area. This is an ambitious goal to put development coaching into practice.
We produced a two year report alongside our partners Johnson & Johnson, The QNI and Bucks New University, to evaluate the pilots as we moved into our third year of the programme and you can view it here.(12Mb pdf). Alongside information on the programme it contains valuable insights into innovation within the public and private sector from our survey which we conducted earlier in the year.
The first cohort of Nurse First participants brought in an average of £16,000 each of funding for their projects. The Business Plans demonstrated cash-releasing savings of an average of £1.2 million each.
Nurse First provides an extremely effective way for an organisation to:
- generate "invest to save" business models
- increase their organisational capacity for innovation
- engage front-line clinicians in innovation
- improve the care they deliver
To book places on the programme for your staff, call 0845 123 7592 or email email@example.com
We are currently recruiting for the May 2014 cohort and future cohorts in 2014.
If you would like to apply for the programme, please visit our application page
There are a limited number of fully-funded bursary places on the Nurse First programme starting in May 2014.
These bursary places are entirely free to the participants and the oragnisation only has to release the staff for 21 days and fund their travel costs to Cambridge.

From the ARRL….
Newington, CT. April 7, 2010 –The International Amateur Radio Union (IARU), and its member societies representing over 150 countries around the world, will celebrate World Amateur Radio Day on April 18, 2010. The theme for this year's celebration is "Amateur Radio: combining communication experience with modern digital techniques."
Amateur Radio operators, called "Hams," have been the leaders in developing many of today's modern electronic and communications marvels. Today the citizens of Earth can think of "wireless" as being the ubiquitous cellular phone or WiFi systems because of the pioneering work in radio and associated technologies first explored by these "amateurs". Many leading electrical engineers were able to draw from their practical experiences as Amateur Radio Operators as they developed modern radio receivers, television, VCR's, high powered transmitters, FM radio, adaptive antennas, and many other inventions that are today's necessities.
Today's hams continue to explore new frontiers. Radio Amateurs are finding ways to use frequencies at the fringes of the radio spectrum while developing marriages of radio and the internet, and experimenting with digital and satellite communications. Ham Radio operators may be "Amateur" because they are unpaid volunteers, but their skills and contributions to the world are of the highest order.
Since 1925, the IARU has been instrumental in coordinating and representing Amateur Radio to the world. For information about the International Amateur Radio Union please see: www.IARU.org.

The best value jointer on the market

About Me

Comments about
Jet 6" Deluxe Jointer with QS Knives, Model JJ-6CSDX
So after lots of research and looking around I decieded on this jointer. I realized that this tool was used most often in my shop next to table saw, so it had to be good. After burning up a lesser quality jointer (ridgid) I decided to invest in one that I would not have trouble finding parts for and should last a very long time. This thing is powerful, straight, and heavy. There is adjustment every where to fine tune it to your needs. Even adjustment to make the tables coplaner should they ever sag (I don't see that being an issue). The quick set blades are a time saver plus they are two sided and cost less than regular blades. As with all Jet tools they took time to add little details that make a lot of difference and add value in the end. If you are interested in purchasing this planer go to wood craft and ask to see the user manual it shows lots of things you may not have know unless you are very familar with higher end jointers. Bottom line spend a little more and get this jointer it will save you money and time in the long run.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Jet deluxe jointer
The Doctor
About Me
Good dust control allows indoor use. Longer bed makes jointing 8 or 10 foot boards much safer, comfortable, and gives better results. I love the quick change knives. No problem with jointing 6 inch wide stock and gives excellent finish. Only complaint is that the fence is not 100% flat. Testing the bed with steel straight edge revealed perfect flatness. I would buy this jointer again without reservation.

RVSM group approval received for Sabre 65s
St. Louis-based Sabreliner received RVSM group certification for the Sabre 65. The approval, based on the installation and flight testing of equipment in six Sabre 65s, means customers installing the equipment won't need trailing-cone flight tests and subsequent data reviewed by the FAA, said Sabreliner. The company said it can install the required equipment in "two to three weeks," depending on an aircraft's current avionics configuration. Sabreliner offers analog and digital RVSM packages installed
for the Sabre 65 for $189,900 and $239,900, respectively. Sabreliner expects to receive RVSM group approval for its Models 60 and 80 next summer.

Second Season
Deer Biology
My family and I really enjoy the second deer season – shed hunting season! Shed hunting is about as fun as deer hunting – except that it doesn't provide wonderful, natural venison for the freezer…darn.
Bucks shed their antlers when their testosterone level drops below a certain threshold. The annual testosterone cycle is relatively simple. It's below the "antler threshold" all summer while the antlers are growing and covered with velvet. The shortening day length triggers an increase in testosterone level which triggers the hardening of antlers and shedding of velvet.
As long as a buck's testosterone level remains above the antler threshold they will hold their hardened antlers. During any given day a buck's testosterone may increase or decrease due to the presence of a receptive doe, being challenged by another buck, winning or losing a fight, etc.
It's not uncommon to find a shed earlier than normal – say during early December. Usually early shedding is due to a buck being injured or unhealthy which resulted in his testosterone level sinking below the antler threshold. If the buck survives the season without major injury, the increasing daylight will trigger a decrease in testosterone levels and the antlers will shed. The exact timing of this is related to the health of the individual buck. It's not uncommon for bucks to shed during January during extremely cold or low food quality conditions. On the other hand, it's common for bucks where there is plenty of quality food (especially grains) to hold their antlers till March.
Antlers don't have to be rubbed or knocked off. I've known mature bucks in captivity that were in a serious fight one day during February and the loser shed both antlers that night. Once the testosterone drops below the antler threshold, the antlers will usually simply fall off within hours. This is why many sheds are found within 100 yards of each other!
The best places to find sheds are where deer are spending time during the winter when the day length is increasing. I'll share the type of habitat where you have the best chances to find sheds in my next entry in this blog.

How to Start a Temp Staffing Agency
Starting a staffing agency may seem daunting, but staying organized and focused is key. Follow these guidelines and you'll be well-positioned for future success.
1. Gain some experience.
Too many people start a staffing business with little to no experience in the industry. It's always a good idea to come in with some knowledge of the industry – not just as a temporary employee, but as an administrator as well.
2. Research all the governmental requirements.
Evaluate areas such as licensing, taxing and workers' compensation, as requirements vary by state. And don't skip out on your taxes or borrow from your tax money – it will catch up with you in the end.
3. Execute a realistic cash flow analysis and projection.
In the first year, staffing firms should do this on a monthly basis so they can plan for cash flow needs. There are also many costs firms don't take into account, such as workers' compensation insurance, rent and phone bills. Determine your income and expenses and then how much cash you'll need to operate on a day-to-day basis.
4. Talk to people in the industry.
There's always free advice out there. Pick people's brains who have started a firm before. Talk to owners who are not in your niche or geographic area to avoid any competition.
5. Develop a niche.
While it may sound like a good idea to be a "jack of all trades," it is actually more beneficial to operate primarily within a single niche. This will allow you to stay up-to-date on current needs and trends in whatever industry you choose and also narrow down your competition. Take a look at where your strengths lie, what industries are prevalent and what is underserved in your geographic area.
6. Hit the streets.
If you're just starting out, you're going to need both clients and employees. Use the contacts you have to bring people on board. If you don't have any, knock on doors. Ask where you can post job listings in the area and talk to businesses about their temporary staffing needs.

Alton Brown Hosts Season Three of 'The Next Iron Chef' Premieres Sunday, October 3rd at 9pm ET/PT
NEW YORK, August 25, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — This October, The Next Iron Chef returns with its fieriest season-to-date. Ten of the country's most accomplished chefs bet on their skills and put their reputations on the line for the chance to join the industry's most elite culinary society: the Iron Chefs. Hosted by Alton Brown and filmed in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and New York City, season three premieres Sunday, October 3rd at 9pm ET/PT and challenges the chefs' culinary skills and mental toughness as they enter a clash of culinary titans.
"The third season of The Next Iron Chef certainly has no shortage of tough competitors," said Bob Tuschman, General Manager and Senior Vice President, Programming & Production. "These chefs are some of the fiercest and most decorated yet, which promises the most exciting culinary rivalries to date."
The ten contestants include: Marco Canora (Chef & Owner of Hearth, Terrior, and Terroir TriBeca, in New York), Bryan Caswell (Chef & Owner, Reef, Stella Sola, and Little Bigs, in Houston, Texas), Maneet Chauhan (Chef at Vermillion, in Chicago and New York), Mary Dumont (Executive Chef at Harvest, in Cambridge, Mass.), Duskie Estes (Chef & Owner of Zazu Restaurant + Farm, Bovolo, and Black Pig Meat Co., in Sonoma County, Calif.), Marc Forgione (Chef & Owner of Marc Forgione, in New York), Andrew Kirschner (Executive Chef of Wilshire, in Santa Monica, Calif.), Mario Pagán (Chef & Owner of Chayote and Lemongrass, in Puerto Rico), Celina Tio (Chef & Owner of Julian, in Kansas City, Mo.), and Ming Tsai (Chef & Owner of Blue Ginger, in Wellesley, Mass.). Click here for chef bios.
This season, the contestants battle their way from Los Angeles to Las Vegas to New York, for the right to compete in the finale in legendary Kitchen Stadium. Along the way, they will be challenged to showcase important Iron Chef attributes through their food: ingenuity, innovation, resourcefulness, transformation, respect, inspiration, seduction, and honor. Host Alton Brown puts the culinary warriors through eight grueling tests that pay homage to American cuisine. Challenges include: cooking on a desert island, catching their secret ingredients in the wild, dreaming up a 5-Star luxury menu and turning ordinary fair food into an Iron Chef worthy meal. Esteemed judges Donatella Arpaia (restaurateur and cookbook author), Simon Majumdar (food writer and broadcaster), and Iron Chef Michael Symon (chef and restaurateur) critique the challenges and narrow down the competition. The final two battle for supremacy in Kitchen Stadium in the season finale on Sunday, November 21st, at 9pm ET/PT. The winner joins the ranks of Symon, Bobby Flay, Masaharu Morimoto, Mario Batali, Cat Cora and Jose Garces and launches into instant fame as a member of the Chairman's team on Iron Chef America.
The winner begins their reign as Iron Chef with a heated Iron Chef America battle on Sunday, November 28th at 9pm ET/PT. The Next Iron Chef is produced by Triage Entertainment in conjunction with Food Network and is based partially on the format Iron Chef owned by Fuji Television Network, Inc.

Missouri City, Texas, isn't alone in asking drivers to pick up the tab for emergency services they receive by using a 'crash tax.' The practice is becoming increasingly common throughout the United States.
Missouri City, Texas, drivers may want to make sure they keep their eyes on the road. If they're involved in an accident, they could be facing more than just repair fees and insurance hikes, even if the other party is found at fault.
Starting March 1, the Missouri City Fire Department will impose a "crash tax" of as much as $2,000 for drivers who've been involved in an accident and are helped by first responders, KHOU reports.
Even if motorists don't call first responders, they'll be charged the fee if authorities show up.
City officials and the fire department hope the new charge will help plug the city's budget deficit, and believe the duty will be picked up by the driver's insurance.
In the past, according to NBC News, insurance companies have refused to pay for first responders. Insurers cover vehicular damages and medical fees related to the collision, but they say responder costs are outside of their domain. When they refuse to pay, the individual is usually saddled with the bill, which typically costs a few hundred dollars. At this point, they're contacted by a collection company hired by the municipality.
Insurance companies have cried foul with districts who assume they'll pick up the fees, which are becoming increasingly common across the United States. According to Fox News, different variations of "crash taxes" exist in 50 cities in 26 states.
By imposing these taxes, city governments are taxing citizens double, insurers claim, saying first responder fees are already covered by local taxes.
"It's our belief that responding to investigative accidents is a function of police and fire departments supported by local taxes," Joe Thesing, assistant vice president-state affairs with the National Association of Mutual Insurance Companies, told NBC News.
Thesing added that he believes third-party collection agencies are duping cities and towns into thinking that insurance companies can help shrink their expanding deficits. The taxes began appearing with increased regularity around 2006-2007 when the U.S. economy began to falter and municipalities found themselves struggling to pay for police and fire services.
Regina Moore Jones, president of Cost Recovery Corp., which has contracts with hundreds of municipalities in 16 states, says her company does not bill innocent drivers. Instead, she told NBC News, the company only invoices negligent drivers.
"We never bill for an 'accident.' There has to be some sort of negligence. There's never a victim that's ever assessed a fee," she said.
"Tax dollars should be used for core services. Core services do not include subsidizing for negligence," she added.
Like New York City residents and politicians who squashed a 2010 proposal to charge drivers as much as $495 for emergency response services, Missouri City locals have expressed outrage with their town's new tax.
"That really ticks me," Missouri City resident Meredith Johnson told KHOU. "I can't believe that. That's crazy!"
Missouri City Fire Chief Russell Sander assured residents that no one would be coming to their homes to collect money. He says insurance companies would cover the "crash taxes."
"I don't think they're going to see much differences in our services or their cost that's out of their pocket," Sander told KHOU.
According to Fox News, bills to prevent crash victims from paying for emergency services have been passed in 10 states. Oceanside, Calif., decided in 2010 to repeal a measure that charged out-of-town drivers for responder fees.
"We're talking about a program that hasn't worked, that isn't successful and has hurt us," Councilman Jerry Kern told The San Diego Union-Tribune. "I think for PR alone, we should drop this program and tell people we welcome them to this city."

Good Questions: Stylish Outdoor furniture?
An email from Brad:
"Hi AT, Do you know a good store site for highish end outdoor furniture like this?"
Link To All Good Questions
Brad, we haven't seen the exact style as in the picture you provided, but if you're looking for high end modern outdoor furniture, you might try checking out California Living, on La Brea. They might provide you with some more information and/or inspiration. Does anyone else have any recommendations for Brad?
7 Comments
I bought a bunch of outdoor furniture at...of all places...overstock.com. THey routinely have high-end knockoff stuff of fairly good quality for CHEAP. You didn't ask for budget prices, so maybe you can just go for the expensive stuff (restoration hardward has something like that if I recall), but overstock might be worth a look. good luck
Run, don't walk to www.curranonline.com. If you need a password to enter the site (I think you don't anymore, but just in case) it's "banana." Their stuff is fabulous, the prices are really good, and you don't pay for shipping. Plus, if you encounter any problems (delays, for example, since it all ships from the manufacturers) their customer service is really communicative and helpful. I've bought a lot of stuff from them over the years ranging from furniture (very similar to the stuff in the picture) to little stuff like linens, and I've been very happy with all of it. And definitely get on their mailing list so you can get their WASP fantasy life catalog (you'll just have to wait to see what I mean by that!) Happy shopping...
It might be worth checking out Grounded Modern Outdoor Living.
Sounds crazy, but Home Depot has a high end catalog called Crescent Lane, and they feature pieces in the exact style you're looking for...
I remember seeing similar furniture at the Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel.
If designer-connected, perhaps Brown Jordan and/or Janus et Cie.
The item is a Janus Et Cie.
Its about $12,000.
and you can get it @ Touch Of History in Scottsdale AZ 15507 N Scottsdale Rd 85254 480-991-8898

Dozens of city employees filled the Chattanooga City Council chambers tonight to ask for more pay.
They wore stickers that read: "We need a raise."
The local chapter of the Service Employees International Union organized the show of support for better pay and a message to Mayor Andy Berke that his proposed 1.5 percent raise for employees in next year's budget is not enough.
Instead, the public service workers said they need to be paid on average a higher amount. Some argued for a .50 cent-per-hour increase.
Berke's spokeswoman Lacie Stone said that the city's Human Resources department is evaluating pay issues for general employees.
"It's a complex issue that requires a strategic approach to ensure fairness and equity across the board," Stone said.
In other business, council members:
• Approved a 10-year tax break to French auto supplier, Plastic Omnium Auto Exterior. The company plans to supply bumpers and fender parts for the Volkswagen Passat sedan. The supplier will still have to pay the school portion of the property tax levy and the city and county taxes in gradual amounts over the next 10 years. If approved by the Hamilton County Commission Wednesday, the company will purchase a 27-acre tract of land at Enterprise South — that the county and city jointly own — for $1.4 million.
• Authorized the Chattanooga Police Department to purchase an electronic citation system for police officers for handheld equipment. The contract with Brazos Technology is for five years and costs $1.5 million.
• Approved a construction project of nearly $300,000 to improve the Shepherd Youth and Family Development Center's playground.

How to build a winner
I just spent about half an hour writing a thoughtful piece on different strategies for building a winning team. Then, when I went to save it for publishing, it mysteriously vanished. Damned gremlins.
Anyway, I don't have time to rewrite it right now, but I will try to publish it tonight when I have a chance. Instead, I'll just open the topic to everybody ... in your opinion, what's the best method for building a winning team? The Yankee Method? The Rays Method? The Cubs Method?
Discuss, and don't assume your perception of those methods are universal ... if you pick one, please define it too.
Good Question
I think it would be difficult to choose just one method for any team since every team has its own unique situation; concerning location, revenues, and current rosters. Any fool could operate the Yankee's system, but only they can afford it, so theirs' would be useless to the cubs. The Rays also are a product of their environment, where unless the cubs intend to have a fire-sale and become the worst team in baseball for 6-8 years their method doesn't really apply to where the cubs are at right now either. The Red Sox probably represent the closest comparison to the cubs in terms of current situation, where the cubs could likely benefit by looking more closely at how the sox system operates.
For me, any system's success depends on consistency, and the cub's drafting and player development system has zero consistency. Most of the players tabbed for success coming out of the farm system never pan out, and then other players the organization continually overlooks come out of nowhere and produce - where both situations happen far too often. So an organizational change has to take place, both in philosophy and practice. For the past ten plus years the cub's organization has stockpiled 6 foot 6 hard throwing right handed pitchers, while in that time 3 have risen through the system and only one remains with the team. The team has lacked true lefty-righty balance with the pitching staff and batting order for just as long or longer as well. And any team that can go a decade without producing a single game-changing position player has to consider fine-tuning their process at some point. The fact that these problems exist is an issue, but the fact that they persist is the true problem.
The cubs simply lack a system that they, themselves, believe in. I believe if the team developed a stronger international scouting reach along with changing how they evaluate players within the system, then the team could ultimately be more successful. But these problems in tandem with no real ownership group have all been too much to overcome at once.
So for me, I think the cubs need to develop their own system, that they believe in, and build it from the ground up. After the team does that, then they can begin to look around at what other teams are doing and cherry-pick the best ideas that the others use. Surely the team could benefit from valuing prospects on the level that the Rays do or spending money the way the Yankees/Red Sox do, but if they don't have their own system established to add these new ideas to then making those changes won't have much effect. A team can always find new horses to hitch to the carriage, but if the carriage is already broken then it doesn't really matter which horses you have pulling it.
our decent track
our decent track record with mid-level prospects makes me not so sad to see the cubs trade for quantity instead of quality. it comes down to a simple point. do you put all of your eggs in one basket, or do you spread those eggs out.
I hope that in the future the cubs can have a better record with higher profile players, but on the same note i am not sold on sinking huge signing bonuses into young players that may bust. I like the draft this season. Andrew Cashner could become a very effective major league pitcher, and ryan flaherty could so the same in the infield. Neither of these were bank breakers but both have upside.
I guess my answer to the question would be to keep the system the cubs have; a mixture of player development and trades/free agent signings. However, i would like to see them increase their play in the foreign markets like Venezuela and the Dominican, all while increasing their scouting of draft eligible amateurs.
It's obvious.
Sign Kevin Millar. He's a WINNER!
Whatever you want to call the Yankee method, I'll take it. I think it's having the most money and winning the most championships. I'm a big fan of both.
red sox. brilliant in the
red sox. brilliant in the draft, great at developing talent, and willing to use top tier revenues to sign the free agents they want, no matter the cost.
It wasn't very long ago
that the Red Sox wouldn't pay their top FA's either.
A couple of things to note however when building an organization. The minor league system is designed to help the big club and that can happen a couple of different ways. The players they develop can either grow into roles on the big club or they can be traded for complimentary pieces to add to the big club.
It has frustrated me to see so few position players drafted by the Cubs develop in to quality MLB players on the team or when traded. Still I think Hendry's plan has been to draft pithcers when in doubt, based on the assumption that their future value will always be in greater demand.
If the Cubs were a small market team, they would most certainly need to change the way they identify talent in the draft and may very well need to replace some in charge of development. But as of now, their plan seems to be working as they have a pretty good record on drafting good pitching talent.
What should not be overlooked however is the owners willingness to continue spending and that is my biggest concern, down economy or not.
