ANOTHER New York Yankees player linked to Miami clinic where baseball stars allegedly received performance enhancing drugs
You can add New York Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli to the list of Major League Baseball players like Alex Rodriguez who have been linked to the clinic that allegedly distributed performing-enhancing drugs to Major Leabue Baseball stars.
Milwaukee Brewers slugger Ryan Braun's name also appeared on the list, but Braun said he used the person who ran the Florida clinic under investigation by Major League Baseball only as a consultant on his drug suspension appeal last year.
'I have nothing to hide,' said Braun said in a statement released by his representatives to The Associated Press on Tuesday night.

New York Yankees Francisco Cervelli's (center in both pictures) name also appears in the ledgers of Biogenesis the closed South Florida anti-aging clinic the MLB is investigating as a potential source of illegal drugs
The Miami New Times recently released clinic documents that purportedly linked Alex Rodriguez, Gio Gonzalez, Melky Cabrera and other players to purchases of banned drugs from the now-closed anti-aging center.
Unlike the original six players identified by the New Times, the names of Cervelli and Braun were not listed specifically as purchasers of performance-enhancing drugs in the records obtained by Yahoo.
Even so, MLB officials could still seek suspensions for the trio if further evidence can be discovered tying them to PED use. A first-time offense results in a 50-game suspension.
In a statement on his Twitter account late last night, Cervelli denied buying banned substances from Biogenesis. 'Following my foot injury in March 2011,' he wrote, 'I consulted with a number of experts, including Biogenesis Clinic, for legal ways to aid my rehab and recovery. I purchased supplements that I am certain were not prohibited by Major League Baseball.'
Earlier in the day, Yahoo Sports reported the 2011 NL MVP's name showed up three times in records of the Biogenesis of America LLC clinic.
Yahoo said no specific performance-enhancing drugs were listed next to his name.
Braun said his name was in the Biogenesis records because of an issue over payment to Anthony Bosch, who ran the clinic near Miami.
Ryan Braun of the Milwaukee Brewers is also being investigated for his role in the Florida clinic which is now closed
'There was a dispute over compensation for Bosch's work, which is why my lawyer and I are listed under 'moneys owed' and not on any other list,' said Braun.
'I have nothing to hide and have never had any other relationship with Bosch,' he said. 'I will fully cooperate with any inquiry into this matter.'
On Tuesday, MLB officials asked the Miami New Times for the records the alternative newspaper obtained for its story.
Asked specifically about Braun's name in the documents before the five-time All-Star released his statement, MLB spokesman Pat Courtney said: 'Aware of report and are in the midst of an active investigation in South Florida.'
Braun tested positive during the 2011 postseason for elevated testosterone levels. He maintained his innocence and his 50-game suspension was overturned during spring training last year when arbitrator Shyam Das ruled in favor of Braun due to chain of custody issues involving the sample.
With that, Braun became the first major leaguer to have a drug suspension overturned.
Denials: New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez, pictured in May 2012, has denied all claims that he received injections of PEDs from Miami anti-ageing clinic Biogenesis of America
'During the course of preparing for my successful appeal last year, my attorneys, who were previously familiar with Tony Bosch, used him as a consultant. More specifically, he answered questions about T/E ratio and possibilities of tampering with samples,' Braun said.
These new details emerged allegations about the alleged doping ring said to have included Yankees star Alex Rodriguez were revealed last Friday.
Unnamed sources have claimed Mr Rodriguez received injections of performance-enhancing drugs at his Miami mansion and communicated directly with the alleged mastermind of the doping scheme, Anthony Bosch, via text messages.
A spokesperson for Mr Rodriguez flatly denied the new claims to the MailOnline, stating, 'The allegations are not true.'
Insiders spoke to ESPN's Outside the Lines blog, claiming the baseball player would send text messages late at night to arrange meetings with Anthony Bosch at Rodriguez's sprawling Miami mansion.
Mr Bosch had operated the now defunct Biogenesis of America clinic in Coral Gables, the alleged headquarters of the widespread South Florida doping ring. MLB players Melky Cabrera, Bartolo Colon, Nelson Cruz, Yasmani Grandal and Gio Gonzalez have also been named as having possible connections to Bosch's operation.
Lawsuit: Anthony Bosch faces a claim for unspecified damages after he was accused of doling out banned substances at his Miami clinic
'Only Tony handled A-Rod,' one source told the sport's blog about the meetings, said to have occurred every few weeks at the athlete's home in a gated community on Biscayne Bay.
Other sources have said Mr Bosch openly discussed his relationship with Mr Rodriguez.
But the two appeared to have had a falling out after a botched attempt by Bosch to administer a substance intravenously into A-Rod last spring.
Mr Bosch reportedly admitted that he had difficulty finding a vein but the sources indicated to ESPN that they weren't sure what he was injecting because HGH and testosterone do not need to be injected intravenously.
An exposé published in Miami's New Times claims
the baseball star received mixtures of drugs including Human Growth
Hormones (HGH) and testosterone creams on a fairly regular basis, according to handwritten notes viewed by someone familiar with the clinic.
When the injection failed, Mr Bosch said he was kicked out of the house.
'Tony said A-Rod was pissed at him. He said he was bleeding everywhere,' the source said.
The details emerged after the shocking report last week that said the Yankees third baseman had used performance-enhancing drugs as recently as the 2012 baseball season.
Rodriguez's name appears in handwritten notes, reportedly kept by Bosch's clinic, that indicate he received various substances from 2009 up until 2012.
'There was his name, over and over again, logged as either 'Alex Rodriguez,' 'Alex Rod,' or his nickname at the clinic, 'Cacique,' a pre-Columbian Caribbean chief. Rodriguez's name appears 16 times throughout,' according to the article.
Allegations: Sources told ESPN that A-Rod arranged late night meetings to receive injections of PEDs at his Miami mansion (pictured)
The banned substances were listed under Rodriguez's name and also under the name of his cousin, Yuri Sucart.
'The mentions of Rodriguez begin in 2009 and continue all the way through last season.'
Records in Dr Bosch's notebook also show that a payment of $3,500 was received for '1.5/1.5 HGH (sports perf.) creams test., glut., MIC, supplement, sports perf.'
According to the records, Rodriguez also received IGF-1 (Insulin-like growth factor 1) a protein that stimulates muscle growth.
The 37-year-old, who signed a 10 year contract with New York valued at $275 million in 2007, previously denied the newspaper report last Tuesday.
'The news report about a purported relationship between Alex Rodriguez
and Anthony Bosch are not true,' a publicist for Mr Rodriguez said last
Tuesday in a statement in response to the news.
'He was not Mr Bosch's patient, he was never treated by him and he was never advised by him. The purported documents referenced in the story - at least as they relate to Alex Rodriguez - are not legitimate.'
Boost: Anthony Bosch operated the now defunct clinic, Biogenesis of America in Miami, where Rodriguez allegedly obtained banned substances to boost his athletic performance
Given the doping allegations, some have suggested A-Rod could be shown the door at the Yankees.
Sources close to the team told the New York Daily News on Thursday that regardless of the outcome of the investigation, Rodriguez would be considered damaged goods.
He still has five years and $114 million left on his contract.
Since he has been suffering from several injuries of late, including hip surgery, he could retire citing medical reasons and still receive the remaining money in his contract, the bulk of which would be paid by insurance and not the Yankees franchise.
But team A-Rod blasted the claims,
telling the New York Post that Rodriguez is looking forward to returning to the team.
'Alex is working diligently on his rehabilitation and looks forward to getting back on the field as soon as possible,' the source said.
Denial: Alex Rodriguez, admitting in Feb 2009 to taking a banned substance, had said his period of doping was limited to 2001 to 2003
The Yankees star had admitted in 2009 that he 'experimented with a banned substance' during the time period of 2001 to 2003, when he played for the Texas Rangers.
In a mea culpa press conference in February 2009, he admitted to taking a supplement obtained by his cousin from the Dominican Republic but he said in his defense that he did not know it was banned by Major League Baseball.
'It was his understanding that it would give me a dramatic energy boost and [was] otherwise harmless,' Mr Rodriguez told reporters about the substance.

GRAND CHUTE, Wisc. - Reggie Golden's eighth-inning solo home run was the difference on Sunday afternoon at Fox Cities Stadium in the Kane County Cougars 4-3 victory over the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, snapping a seven-game road losing streak.
Before Golden led off the eighth inning with his third home run of the year, the Cougars (32-44, 2-8) had tied the game in the seventh against Harvey Martin (L, 0-1). With the bases loaded and two outs, Willson Contreras cracked the game-tying RBI single to score Kevin Encarnacion who had three hits and two runs scored on Sunday.
In the bottom of the fifth, the Timber Rattlers had taken a 3-2 lead after Michael Reed reached on a single and Alfredo Rodriguez was hit by a Brian Smith pitch before the Cougars' starter was taken out. With two outs and Armando Rivero on the mound, Parker Berberet knocked in a pair with a single.
After allowing the two inherited runners to score, the Cougars' bullpen would not allow any more runs to cross the plate. Rivero worked 1.2 innings allowing just one hit and striking out three. Lendy Castillo (W, 1-5) tossed 1.2 innings as well giving up just one hit and walking three. Righty Michael Hamann (S,1) retired the final batter of the eighth inning before working a scoreless ninth.
The Cougars and Timber Rattlers continue their five-game set on Monday evening with a 7:05 first pitch from Fox Cities Stadium. Right-hander Jose Rosario (0-4) starts for the Cougars against righty Eric Semmelhack (1-4). The Cougars return to Fifth Third Bank Ballpark on Thursday, July 4, to take on the Quad Cities River Bandits at 6:30 p.m. For tickets, please call (630) 232-8811 or visit www.kccougars.com.

8:00 am
48 hours of book programming beginning saturday morning at 8 eastern through monday morning at 8 eastern. nonfiction book withs all weekend, every weekend right here on c-span2. >> here's a look at some of what's ahead here on c-span2. next, "the communicators" continues its series of interviews from the international consumer electronics show in las vegas with a discussion on government's role many technology. then president obama awards this year's recipients of the national medals for science, technology and innovation. and after that we're live as policymakers, health care industry leaders and representatives of government gather for a national health policy conference. >> congress returns today to capitol hill. the house comes in at 2 p.m. eastern to take up a small number of bills under suspension of the rules with votes at 6:30. also this week a debate and vote on a measure to require the
8:01 am
president to submit a balanced budget to congress. over in the senate, members also come back at 2 eastern for general speeches. then at about 5:30, a vote on the bill to reauthorize the violence against women act, a domestic violence law that expired in 2011. a final vote on that could happen later this week. members of both parties are attending retreat this week. as a result, the senate will be out on tuesday and wednesday, and the house no legislative business on thursday or friday. live coverage of the house on c-span and the senate here on c-span2. >> host: and you're watching "the communicators" on c-span. we are on location in las vegas at ces international 2013 at the las vegas convention center. here's some of our interviews that we did this week. well, now at the ces international show in las vegas we're joined by representative zoe lofgren, democrat of
8:02 am
california. representative lofgren, what are you doing at ces? >> guest: interestingly enough, this is my very first trip to ces. i've had my staff go in the past, but they asked that i come down and be a panel about immigration which i did this morning, and this afternoon i'm going to look around the hall, and then i'm going to fly home to san jose. so it's been fun so far. >> host: what was your role on the panel, and what was your point of view? >> guest: well, there's a lot of problems with our immigration system, and everybody sees it from the such as they're in -- the situation they're in. so the technology world sees that people who just got their ph.d. in electrical engineering from mit can't get a visa to stay here even if they28 any sense. of course, if you're a farmer, you see your migrant workers don't have their paper, and you're going to have to tuck
8:03 am
your field under, and if you're chucking crabs in maryland, you see your season's going to be destroyed because you don't have workers. the whole thing is a mess, and i have hope we'll have a reform effort that's top to bottom and bipartisan. >> host: you represent a lot of companies out in silicon valley. >> guest: yes. >> host: what do you hear from them and what do you see as the solution to the h-1b h-1b visa problem? >> guest: it's not so much an h-1b problem. it does need reformed. it does have structural problems that can lead to underpaying immigrants to the detriment of the american coworkers. but the real answer is in permanent residents. we're competing on a worldwide stage, and if you've got some hot shot that just got his ph.d. in computer science from stanford, she's getting offers from all over the world. and to say, well, you can stay in some limbo for six years is
8:04 am
not really competitive. so what you want to do is for people we want to have stay here to create jobs -- and that's not just in the it can field, it's throughout the economy -- you need to make it easy for people to stay and create businesses and grow american jobs and help our economy recover. >> host: what's the atmosphere, the climate for potential immigration reform in congress and perhaps the administration? >> guest: well, on the democratic side we've had an interest in immigration reform for quite some time. we have not had that enthusiasm on the republican side. but here's the deal. in november mitt romney lost badly, and part of the reason why was because he got under 30% of the vote among asian voters and under 30% of the vote among latino voters. and analysts have devised that
8:05 am
that is partly because of the republican posture on immigration. so really the republican leadership needs to think do they ever want a republican president again? because these are the fastest-growing demographic groups in the country. and if so, they have to join us and do immigration reform. we're happy to compete for voters on some other subject. let's come together, reform this system that needs it so much. it'll be good for our country. >> host: and this is a priority for the tech community? >> guest: it is. and it's a priority for me. it's something i've been working on for a long, long time. and i just, it's a decision that the republican leadership needs to make. now, i can't make it for them, but i am hopeful that they will decide this is a good thing to put behind them. and i know that we can work together to make it so.
8:06 am
>> host: representative zoe lofgren, what else do you hear from your constituents in the silicon valley area about washington? we've heard from some people it's two different worlds. >> guest: well, it's interesting because in the bay area there aren't very many republicans. i mean, there's not a single republican house member from the bay area, and there's not a single republican in the state senate or the state assembly. i mean, anybody that has to identify their party is a democrat. and that reflects the constituency, not just the elected officials. so i get when i come home people can't understand what republicans are doing, and i find it difficult to explain it, honestly. [laughter] you know, it's an area that supports freedom, that doesn't want to manage somebody else's
8:07 am
religion or somebody else's life. it's an area that just so thed to pass -- just voted to tax themselves so we could have better health care and better schools and better transportation. they look at washington and don't understand the fight in a lot of ways. >> host: specifically when it comes to technology-related issues, though, do you hear anything that your constituents -- >> guest: well, yes. there is concern about innovation and the role that current law has in the area of copyright and patent in stifling innovation. that's difficult to remedy. we had a patent bill that i actually ended up not voting for last year having worked on it for the years -- for 12 years that really didn't do what we'd hoped it would do. we've got an overarching scheme on copyright enforcement that is
8:08 am
probably not that positive in term ors of technology -- terms of technology innovation. i'm sure you all remember the sopa brouhaha of last year. we stopped the overreach from the copyright max laws, but the technology companies -- i'm just talking about individuals who are inventing things and creating things -- feel that there is a problem many terms of -- in terms of the copyright regime and can we come together and make sure that those laws work in an internet age. that's something i'd like to work on, and i'm going to be introducing some bills -- i don't know that they'll pass the first session of congress, but at least to get the discussion going. >> host: when you walk around here at ces, do you see a lot of your constituents? >> guest: oh, sure. i run into a number of people already who i know, and one to have people walking around with me said do you want to go to x, y and z company from your district, i said, well, i go to
8:09 am
those companies all the time. let's go see some companies i don't see. so this afternoon i'm going outside the hall to another hall to visit the start-ups who couldn't afford to come into this hall and to see what's coming at us next. >> host: and they couldn't afford the rent here? >> guest: yeah. so they've got the little tiny boosts in the start-up ideas, and a couple years from now some of them will probably afford to be in this hall. >> host: representative zoe lofgren is a democrat from california. this is "the communicators" on c-span. >> guest: good to see you, peter. >> host: and ces international is held every year in las vegas. it's one of the largest trade shows in the world, about 100,000 people attend this every year. it's focused on technology. "the communicators" is here doing interviews and looking at some of the new technology. here's some more of our programming. former congressman tom davis, what are you doing out here at ces in vegas? >> guest: well, this is where it's a lot more productive here
8:10 am
than congress and my own life. i'm speaking at one of the conferences here and trying to enjoy the show. >> host: what's deloiotte? >> guest: deloiotte is the largest of the big accounting firms, consulting firms, professional services firms in the country. it's a partnership. >> host: since you've retired from congress, is that what you've been doing? >> guest: that's what i've been doing, work anything the consulting practice. >> host: what's the panel that you are headlining -- >> guest: well, i've got an issue on congress tomorrow. i've got a couple other members, and we're going to just talk about the fiscal cliff, we talk about what's happening or not happening in washington and try to let people understand why it's the way it is. for people who don't understand how washington works and how voters work, sometimes we try to demystify it for them. >> host: tom davis, is there a particular angle to legislative policy when it comes to tech companies such as we're seeing out here at ces? >> guest: well, they're conflicted because they tend to be on the social side, the
8:11 am
social issue side tends more with democratic policies on gay rights, abortion, seems to be more organized, affluent, educated societies. but on economic policy, obviously, walk around, free trade. it's not a union type of operation. a more market oriented on this, so they kind of get conflicted between the parties on this. so the politics have been in the bay area culture is the predominant force in people's political ideas. my corner, tyson, a little different orient toward the government to understand those regulatory issues and the like. so i think they're conflicted like everybody else. tech workers tend to be a little more obama than romney, but it's a swing vote once you get away from the social issues. >> host: when it comes to your service in congress, did you push tech issues at all?
8:12 am
>> guest: absolutely, i pushed them. i had a huge technology interest. i did a lot of legislation in that area. we had a y2k bill when it was coming. people were afraid to touch it because of the tort liability and afraid to make corrections because if something went wrong, they'd have a liability on it. so we put a limited liability into place there. i was one of the cosponsors for a bill we had on shareholder derivative suits that basically protected companies from lawsuits that were hitting innovative companies when you get into some of the property issues that, intellectual property issues. government procurement issues. government is not a very efficient procurer of technology. services acquisition reform act the last cybersecurity law to get through congress called fisma. so i was a pretty prolific legislator in those areas. which tended to cross party lines. >> host: well, speaking of the
8:13 am
government procurement process, does it work currently especially when it comes to technology? >> guest: well, the problem with government procurement is, i'll give you an example. i put an addition on my house about a year ago. i didn't have to worry about advertising it. i didn't have to worry about small business set asides or minority set asides. those issues, i didn't have to worry about o protests, and and i got it done pretty efficiently, and i could work it pretty quickly. i didn't have to worry about the buy america act. government procurement has all these bells and whistles on it that try to, basically, look at other government policies and make procurement part of that instead of just looking at getting the cheapest goods for the cheapest price for the taxpayer. we try to pursue too many public policy goals within that procurement system. is so it's, no, it doesn't. the answer is it doesn't work very well. >> host: is there one set of technology tools that the government uses, or does each
8:14 am
department -- >> guest: no, you know, that's one of the difficulties is the policies aren't always congruent. agencies have their own stove pipes, and they don't -- there's no interconnectivity, you know, between the government agencies. it just creates a lot of inefficiencies. in theory, the office of management and budget should be overseeing these kinds of issues between -- in refereeing between the different agencies, but even within agencies you have people procuring different systems that don't integrate very well and as a result of that we spend billions repairing them, billions of dollars sometimes doesn't repair them. and it's pretty inefficient. it's the nature of bureaucracy, the way that these people work up, build their own legacy systems, their own pride in them and don't coordinate with anything around them. peter, it's the same thing that in government the incentives to save money aren't there because if you save money, you don't get the benefit. it goes to somebody who overspent their budget somewhere else. so the incentives in government are just, don't make it very efficient without b somebody at the top coming down hard on them and saying, you know, for the
8:15 am
good of the order, overseeing it and making them -- [inaudible] >> host: but isn't it up to congress to make the system, to create the laws that make the -- >> guest: well, heaven help us if you leave it to congress. but the executive branch ought to be able to do that. the executive bran of. has the authority -- branch has the authority to do it if it should choose to do so. every president until reagan had authority. if you could reorganize the way you wanted to, you'd have to bring it to congress for an up or down vote without an amendment. they get into all these jurisdictional battles, and you end up with the department of homeland security. you design a thoroughbred, and you end up with a three-hump camel. so it's the nature of government. government operates openly, transparency, you're -- the bigger your budget, the more powerful you are. in business it's the opposite. you make a quick, fast decision. it's out of scrutiny.
8:16 am
you make a lot of mistakes in business, but you make a lot of decisions. in government you tend to put off those decisions because there's no reward in making them. >> host: tom davis, you used to be chair of the government affairs committee. >> guest: government reform and oversight. >> host: and represented also a tech area, tyson's corner in virginia. >> guest: right. >> host: does congress understand technology? >> guest: well, that's, i mean, some members. people like darrell issa, just hugely proficient in the area. he built up a tech company and made hundreds of millions of dollars doing it, and then you have some members who don't carry a blackberry. it's just like the population as a whole. but, you know, understanding the technology and how to use it is different than understanding its applications, understanding government policies that will encourage innovation and encourage efficiencies versus policies that discourage it. intellectual property rights. congress coming down one way or the other could have a huge effect in discouraging
8:17 am
innovation. tax can have, your tax policies can encourage or discourage innovation. our immigration policy right now where someone comes over here and gets a ph.d. and we kick them out of the country and make them go to their home country to compete against us. it doesn't make any sense to those of us who understand the way the world works, but it's the way the world currently works. so, yeah, government -- congress can do a lot, and you don't have to be proficient on your iphone or blackberry to understand the applications of tech policy and what makes it work and what doesn't. >> host: what's your area of expertise for deloiotte? >> guest: i get a lot of the i.t. area, information technology. also a lot of -- look, even if you have the right policy in government, making it work, basically, is very, very tough. the implementation of that, if you will, very, very difficult. where deloiotte excels is we take a look at what the policy is and then how do you integrate it and make it work. we're the largest her orier/acquisition firm in the
8:18 am
world the in terms of advisory. and we bring that source to government. so when you're trying to accomplish the same goals with less people and fewer dollars, those are the kinds of things we excel at. but sometimes the incentives in government are such that why would i do that? then my budget goes down. we have, i know a company that has this software that basically tests software much faster, ten times faster or than the government currently does it, but you don't need the people to do it. you can test it quicker and faster, but the managers say what does this do to my people? how do i protect them? so government just has a different set of incentives than the private sector does because it's a monopoly. and so change comes hard. >> host: over the past couple of years, we've seen google and facebook and their washington offices grow exponentially. >> guest: right. >> host: we did an interview with the executive vice president of samsung earlier here at ces, and he mentioned that they have one person in washington.
8:19 am
um, would you recommend to a panasonic, to a sony that they beef up or keep their washington offices strong? >> guest: well, you know, microsoft didn't have much of a washington office until all of a sudden the feds came after them on antitrust issues. and then you get the justice department going after you on something else, and then you get the sec on something else, then congress passes some law, and your whole business plan's out the window. they recognize -- i mean, it's unfortunate companies need that. but the reality today there are so many conflicting interests that somebody if they have an advantage in washington will write the rules to benefit them. and that can undo your business plan. so, yeah, i'd say to sony -- these companies come out of countries that don't have that kind of tradition. we're a full democracy where lobbying is embedded in the constitution. these countries it's a little bit different. and so they're a little late to the party on stuff. google learned the hard way, but google's been very successful. susan molinari is doing a great
8:20 am
job there. they've learned the hard way that if you don't have that washington presence and the tendency of a lot of these tech firms is we don't want the government, we don't need the government, let us just innovate on our own. that's great in theory, but all of a sudden the rules change, and you're out the window. >> host: what do you miss about congress? >> guest: very little. i miss the foreign trips, and i miss the members. but the dysfunctionalty right now, i'm a lot happier on the outside. i left voluntarily, undefeated and unindicted which is the way you want to leave the place. i was turned out as committee chairman. i'd been in leadership for two cycles and three cycles as committee chairman, a ranking member and a subcommittee chairman -- >> host: and you ran the national republican -- >> guest: yeah. i ran the congressional campaign successfully two times. that's a pretty good run. and so it's just time for me to do something else. i didn't get potomac fever. you know when members just gotta stay in washington, and they crave the -- the only known cure is embalming fluid.
8:21 am
and i just, i have, i was ready to do something else. i respect the people that have stayed there trying to make the most of a difficult situation, but for me it was just time to move on and do something else. >> host: and this is "the communicators" on c-span, and we've been talking with former republican congressman tom davis. and up next on "the communicators" an interview with the ceo and chairman of panasonic north america. now on your screen is joe taylor who is the ceo and chairman of panasonic north america. mr. taylor, we're here in las vegas at ces international. what products is panasonic debuting? >> guest: well, peter, first, thanks for having me. and second, i think the interesting thing about what we're doing here today is not just introducing some new consumer electronics, but really rolling out the new image of panasonic globally. and that's a company that's
8:22 am
almost a hundred years old that east $100 billion and has portfolio products far beyond consumer electronics. >> host: such as? >> guest: well, our b to b space is really, really growing for us. we have major market shares in the avionics industry, in-flight entertainment. automotive industry far beyond speakers and radios. complete multimedia interfaces and navigation systems. we have sports and entertainment venues as well as a very large energy business. and these are things, shame on us, but we haven't made people well aware of even though we're a hundred years old. >> host: well, mr. taylor, we are aware of panasonic televisions, cameras, things like that. you've got a brand called your tv. what is that? >> guest: your tv is the latest innovation. people want their content the
8:23 am
way they want it when they want it. they want to be able to communicate with each other, they want to use twitter, they want to see youtube, they want to shop. we're enabling that in a custom fashion on your tv. so we use facial recognition and voice recognition. you walk into a room, and you say my tv, and immediately the screen shows your home page. it's really the coolest thing. >> host: is it on the market? >> guest: it will be on the market this spring. >> host: 4k, oled. what are these terms? >> guest: so 4k is the latest innovation in terms of high resolution. it's four times the resolution of what you have on your hd-tv at home. it's got the same qualities as digital cinemas that you've been visiting around the world. when you go see a movie, that's 4k resolution, we can bring that into your home. oled is another technology for
8:24 am
displays. so we had crts for many years, those are the -- the it's the old, big old boxes. then the next one was plasma, led, lcd, the next is oled which is much more organic. in fact, o stands for organic les. and it's literally pape or thin, and we can -- paper thin, and we can bend it. it's the most amazing thing. you have to go over to our booth to see it. >> host: when you say organic, what do you mean? >> guest: we use a phosphorous rather than semiconductors as the activating agent. so it's much greener. much lower energy consumption than any display on the market. >> host: joe taylor, what happened to 3-d? is 3-d television successful? it was all the rage here last year. >> guest: i don't think anything happened to it. i think 3-d is still developing. there's more and more content coming out all of the time. i think the biggest impediment to 3-d still remains the glasses. and i think as 4k develops, i
8:25 am
think the future for glassesless -- that doesn't even sound right, 3-d without glasses, how about that? i think that future becomes more imminent. and i think then you'll really see an explosion in 3-d. >> host: in your keynote here at ces international, two topics that you brought in. the cloud and energy efficiency. what did you talk about? >> guest: well, the reality is they're both kind of related. the cloud allows us ways to collect, store and analyze data in ways that we've never done before. so as it relates to energy, every device that plugs in your home can be connected to the cloud and send data. as we analyze this data, we have new ways of helping you save energy in ways that we never dreamed possible before. we can manage the entire home electrically in the most
8:26 am
efficient way than you could have ever imagined, and we do that through the cloud. the cloud also provides many other opportunities for us, but in the end the cloud is a big server x all this data's coming in, and now we have ways to analyze this data in a very useful manner. >> host: what about apps? does panasonic use apps? >> guest: we don't make any app, but we create operates systems that are open -- operating systems that are open. the operating system for your tv is a very open architecture which means app developers all around the world can create apps for these tvs, similar to what's done on smartphones today. >> host: mr. taylor, you're the first north american ceo nonjapanese, correct? >> guest: i am. >> host: what's it like bridging the two cultures and the business cultures as well? >> guest: i don't know if i want to answer that question. no, it's been, it's been very interesting. it's been very challenging.
8:27 am
and i say that if panasonic waited 50 years for me, they should have done a lot better. >> host: want to ask you about u.s. jobs with panasonic. how many people are employed? >> guest: in north america right now we have approximately 15,000 employees. >> host: 15,000? >> guest: right. >> host: in what capacity? >> guest: well, everything from manufacturing through sales, marketing, engineering and r&d. a complete range of jobs that you would expect in any major corporation. >> host: when it comes to r&d expenditures, do you have a set amount or a set percentage that you put towards r&d? >> guest: we don't structure r&d that way, but it ends up to be kind of a percentage of revenue. but it isn't budgeted that way. we look at r&d business by business, and businesses that are growing spend more in r&d, and businesses that aren't growing or that we don't anticipate to grow perhaps we
8:28 am
spend less. but we have six r&d sites in knot america alone. -- north america alone. >> host: is the north american market unique? >> guest: well, we like to think it's unique. but what's unique about north america, what can't be disputed is roughly it constitutes 25% of the world gdp. it is by far the largest market in the world. the united states itself is the only developed nation on earth whose population is still growing. so from that standpoint, it makes it a very, very interesting market. some things in common we merging markets and, of course, the most advanced marketplace and the most competitive in the world. >> host: joe taylor, how much time do you spend on regulatory and policy issues with washington, d.c.? >> guest: as little as i possibly can. we have a whole organization of people who are very capable of dealing with that very frustrating process. and i'm very happy to let them do their jobs and stay as
8:29 am
distant as i possibly can. >> host: but as north american chairman, you have to be aware. >> guest: i'm involved, and i'm aware, and it's a mess, frankly. it's just a mess. >> host: why? >> guest: it makes it very difficult for business. so businesses can deal with anything but uncertainty, but uncertainty. it's very difficult to make investment decisions and expect any kind of return on investment when you have no way to predict the future. and our difficulty right now is there's no consistency or certainty in our policy decisions. and, in fact, i think it's become well beyond politics into ideology, and there's no compromise in ideology. so it's difficult as a business person today. >> host: joe taylor, what keeps you up at night when you think ten years down the road about what panasonic will be, how people will be watching tv, how your products will

Food Heaven - Come trough with me
... br>
Prior to going to Nantes I had asked the Quentels if we could have some langoustines - my favourite of all shellfish. Something they gave me years ago and I've been fond of ever since.
Quick shell fish lesson:
A langoustine is not a crayfish, which is fresh water, but rather...Nephrops norvegicus, known variously as the Norway lobster, Dublin Bay ...
In a roundabout sort of way...
... and Heinekens later, me and Will staggered out in search of food.
It was gone 11 and most of the food shops had shut but we stumbled, literally, across this fabulous kebab house.
Back to the hotel, fully fed and completely hammered.
PS No need to do the snore complaint now, Will has been that zonked I could let a hand grenade off and he wouldn't know.

Le Rive Gauche
We started the day with poached eggs at our B&B and acquainting ourselves with Mary and Doug, the other guests. We then walked the old town of Vannes and through the cathedral which houses the remains of sainted father René Rogues who was beheaded for refusing the oaths of the revolutionaries in 1796. Les Halles and the medieval streets down to the port area are well maintained and make for good lifestyle in a seaside town. ...

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
Ancient village house extensively enlarged, preserving old-world charm whilst incorporating modern amenities and comfort. Good-sized pool and patio with barbecues set in beautiful secluded child-friendly private garden. Spacious lounge and large well-equipped kitchen are a feature. There is central heating and air-conditioning. Private parking. Well-furnished with TV, Audio, DVD, library, washing-machine, and many extras. Fire-extinguishers and smoke alarms included.
Our location in the centre of the island means that such activities as are not available on site are within easy reach, either a stroll, a short drive or bus-journey away. A main cross-island road, with bus-stops, passes only 100 m from the villa.
Paul, Lula and Lionel, who manage the villa, live nearby, on call 24 hours every day, but we do not intrude upon our guests' privacy, wait to be approached.
Just as close is a taverna serving inexpensive delicious meals.
Corfu Town: This fascinating town is a product of centuries of influence by various cultures, Ancient Greek, Roman, Angevin, Byzantine, Venetian, French, British &, last but not least, modern Greek. Our villa is six miles from this cornucopia of history. Walk amongst faded Venetian edifices, haggle in the Jewish quarter, climb the massive fortifications, stroll along the French elegance of the Liston whilst watching a cricket match on the green, a heritage of the British. Barge through the crowded modern market or admire one of the many beautiful ornate churches. At night the ethnic disco strip is a must for party-goers and the shimmering lights of a hundred restaurants draw you in. Corfiots are justifiably proud of their catering. Food is prepared and cooked on the premises using only organic produce; no G-M junk here! There is virtually no crime on the island; the very old and very young wander around in safety at any hour of day or night.
Beaches and Countryside: Despite Corfu being a well-known and popular destination, there are still many quiet and unspoilt beaches awaiting the discerning visitor. Some of these are accessible more easily by boat, a splendid way to build up an enormous appetite before disembarking for a private picnic or lunch at family-run tavernas serving excellent Greek fare, including wine, at reasonable prices. For the adventurous there are caves to explore.
Beaches are extremely varied, some offering water-sports including windsurfing, hang-gliding, scuba diving, fishing, water skiing, banana boats, jet-skis etc., others safe bathing for little ones, yet others fiercer elements.
Hire a car; we can arrange that. Stop in a mountain village to admire the spectacular scenery whilst sampling the delicacies of the local taverna including their vintage.
Our villa is right in the centre of the island. All facilities are within easy walking distance or only a short drive or bus-journey away.
Guest Book: We welcome you to write what you will in our guest-book. These comments remain unedited for all to read. We think they provide the best testimony for you to add yourself to our list of friends. Excerpts from this book are available on request. One of the things most pleasing is the large percentage of guests who return, in some cases annually. Nobody has ever left us with a scowling face. We have even needed upon occasion to 'burgle' our own property in order to extricate a child who has locked himself/herself in, trying to avoid going home at the end of their holiday!
First-time guests arrive as strangers, depart as friends. Lula, Paul and Lionel live nearby and are on call 24 hours of the day, but we respect your privacy and wait to be approached. The village was the destination of the first back-packers who 'discovered' Corfu thirty years ago. It has extended a hearty welcome to visitors ever since, often greeting 'veterans' from those early days.
We are a family business. Over the past 16 years we have been welcoming guests from all around Europe at our villas, and in some occasions, even from North America and Oceania.
Well what can we say ? We had the most gorgeous two weeks of our lives. [ Derick Clarke and family, Derby.]
The best villa we have stayed in and the fastest two weeks holiday ever.[Brian Longhurst and family, Bolton.
Who needs a Caribbean for your honeymoon, when you have this gorgeous villa and its very relaxing setting ?[Slap and Tickle,. Lancs]
I had a lovely time here in villa Theodora. I especially liked the pool. I found the Bed very comfy too And felt very safe here in villa Theodora. Thanks very much from Aoife.[7]
This is the third time this year we have stayed at Villa Theodora so we must like it ! [ Paul Grove, Cheltenham].
On our third visit to Corfu we have now found our ideal place, a great base from which to explore the island. What more can we say !! Stunning villa. Smashing pool. Scenic views. Splendid people. [The Gascoynes of Derby]
Perfect- [The Soares, Surrey.]
Have had a WONDERFUL time at your lovely home. [Anne and Roger Evans, Wales

We stayed at Villa Theodora on our honeymoon after our first villa choice fell through, but what a wonderful thing to happen. Paul & Lula (not forgetting Lionel and everyone else in Agios Ioannis) are fantastic hosts, there when you need them, not when you don't.
Agios Ioannis is superbly located for exploring the island.
The Villa commands fantastic views across the Corfiot hills, has everything and more you need for a relaxing Greek holiday (are there are other sort?).
Dining on the plateau is a must, but don't be surprised if you see green spots after drinking Kosta's red wine!!!!
We have returned on several occasions, and plan to do so many times more!!!
We first holidayed at Villa Theodora in September 2000, shortly after its conversion from a traditional farmhouse, and we were smitten with the villa and its setting in Agios Ioannis as soon as we saw it. It wasn't just the villa that made this a perfect holiday for us, it was the whole thing. The owner and his wife, Paul and Lula, are charm personified and made us feel welcome and at home immediately. The village is very quiet, and has a timeless air, so that going to the square is like stepping back 60 or 70 years. Relaxing in the evening at the Taverna, where traditional greek dishes are served, and enjoying a jug or two of the local wine, is an experience not to be missed.
Agios Ioannis is located centrally on the island, so with a hire car you can comfortably explore the whole of Corfu. There are great beaches to be discovered, with lovely scenery, and Corfu Town is just a short drive away. The villa itself is spacious, with a great pool, secluded, and totally private.
All in all, we loved the place from day one, and nothing has changed our opinion since then. We have been back to Villa Theodora several times (I've lost count exactly how many) since 2000, latterly with our children and their partners, and grandchild, and we all feel so at home there. We will be back!!
Back again for another holiday in Villa Theodora. You just can't keep us away!
Yet again all of us, Mum, Dad, both kids and boyfriend enjoyed every minute of our holiday. The villa as usual was in great condition and the village was as full of action as usual. We were even lucky enough to be there during a village festival. Good night had by all and great to meet old friends, both local and other visitors.
Our holiday ended on a high as well as Andy, Paul and Lula's lovely springer spaniel turned up on our last day after many months missing!
Looking forward to our next visit, hopefully next summer.
Ruairi, Bernarde, Daniel and Aoife O'Connor and David Williams
My wife and I booked Villa Theodora not knowing what to expect. As soon as we arrived we could not help but smile, the pictures do not do it justice. We were met by Lula & Paul the caretaker/ owners who gave us a very warm greeting and were so knowledgeable of the village and the local area.
What a pleasant surprise, we had a whole 3 bedroom villa to ourselves; we like to book larger sized villas to give ourselves the more relaxing space that is offered by 2 – 3 bedroom villas.
You step in to a large entrance hall and the decor is light and airy.
There is a large very well equipped kitchen and fair size kitchen table which we hardly used as we had breakfast and most our meals outside in the warm Corfu sunshine.
We made good use of the good sized swimming pool (which was lovely & clear) with loungers and likewise the BBQ just outside the kitchen area.
The bedrooms are all a good size with air conditioning so we were spolit for choice, toilet and bathrooms on both floors.
There is a fair sized lounge area stretching across the back of the villa with a TV set up, which we hardly used.
Well stocked, lush, lower level garden with quite pleasant views and we spent many a long hour relaxing in the tranquillity of our surroundings.
Just a 2 minute stroll away is the little village tavern run by Anna & Nikos where we spent many a long hour dining & chatting with visitors and locals, would highly recommend.
If you want to go out and about, the villa is centrally located, just 10 to 12 Minuit's away from either coast.
We loved our stay so much; we have booked to come back in 2014 with our children and grandchildren.
Where do I start? This villa provided us with the most perfect break from our frenetic,busy lives.Don't believe the photos- they do not do justice to the villa. Also you cannot photograph the feeling of warmth and comfort as you walk through the enormous wooden front door.Yes,we fell in love with villa Theodora! I'm trying very hard to think of something to find fault with but I can,t.Oh wait--perhaps the sunbeds need to have a few more cushions (sometimes one has to be picky!).
We didn't hire a car but if you want to explore then I would advise you do although the bus stop is not too far.
There is only one shop within walking distance but it stocks everyhing and there is also a fantastic bakery which I highly recommend! The piece de resistance of the village is Kostas Taverna.Wonderful food and the people make everyone feel so special.
We went in late May and had one day of rain but otherwise the weather was really warm.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this villa to my friends but I would make sure that I had booked my holiday there first!
An old-world village set amongst the timeless olive groves, yet centrally located on the island within easy reach of town, airport, and beaches on east and west coasts. Aqualand, a large water park, with numerous rides to en-squeal your youngsters, and other facilities is a mile away. There are restaurants of a very good standard, tavernas and bars, mini-market, bakery, etc all within a short walk. The village square [platea] is the location for local festivities, where you can eat al fresco at the ancient taverna at sensible prices, whilst your children are frolicking in safety. This is a 'real' village, not a resort, so you will not be disturbed by noisy discos. However, if you want those, they may be found within For a holiday where you can absolutely relax, yet enjoy more boisterous pursuits if you wish, this IS the place for you. Walk amongst the groves, idle pool-side soaking up the sun. Forget your routines.
Other Activities: model aircraft, eating and drinking
Golf: The villas are only 5 km from Corfu Golf Club, reckoned by many to be one of the finest around the Mediterranean.

Los Alamitos bounces back
WESTMINSTER Los Alamitos' football team showed Thursday that it knows how to multi-task.
The Griffins bounced back from a tough loss and an unveiled a new weapon for its next showdown in defeating host Marina, 54-7, in a Sunset League game at Westminster.
Los Alamitos (6-1, 1-1) fell last week in overtime at Newport Harbor, 27-24, but geared up for its upcoming game against defending league champion Edison by scoring a season-high 54 points.
Led by the debut of sophomore running back Schuyler Whitehead, Los Alamitos scored 54 consecutive points after Marina (1-6, 0-2) scored on its opening possession.
"We showed our character," said Los Alamitos senior Dashawn Gordon, who returned a punt 40 yards for a score in the Griffins' 27-point second quarter.
"That Newport game was a tough loss. After that loss, we were down on ourselves."
Gordon said the Griffins, tied for seventh in the Southwest Division, built some confidence on offense Thursday.
Whitehead rushed for 176 yards and three touchdowns on 16 carries, 14 of which came in the first half. He scored on runs of 11, 6 and 25 yards.
"The holes were there," Los Alamitos coach John Barnes said. "He ran well."
Los Alamitos' offensive line of Sean Tulette, Mike Ampudia, Niko Correra, Tristan Frembling and Lorenzo Mendoza helped the Griffins rush for 268 yards and six touchdowns.
Griffins quarterback Nick Wendell completed 13 of 16 passes for 155 yards, including a 23-yard TD to Cameron Austin with six seconds left in the first half.
Defensive end/linebacker Mike Hayden led Los Alamitos' defense with two tackles for losses and a half-sack. The senior also provided a crushing block that freed Gordon on his punt return for a touchdown. Gus Lopez added 21/2 sacks for Los Alamitos.

Alpine Data Supplies Missing Link for Predictive Analytics
Startup develops big data predictive solutions that simplify the process of building predictive models for data sets.Predictive business analytics initiatives can be tricky to set up correctly and to obtain desired results, if each instance doesn't contain the exact right query and data sources. This is where data scientists can be extremely valuable. But what if you don't have a data scientist on staff? Many times, similar queries come up in an enterprise's use case. What if there was a sort of institutional memory to capture them all, so that the analytics work could be referenced and not have to be repeated, wasting time, energy and salaries? San Francisco-based Alpine Data Labs is a 4year-old startup that provides answers for those questions. This kind of solution becomes especially valuable because more and more analytics options are being added to workflows in new-gen IT systems. Alpine Data Labs develops big data predictive solutions that simplify the process of building predictive models for data sets. This week the company revealed the general availability of its Alpine Custom Operator Framework. This is a flexible methodology for developing custom algorithms that can be plugged directly into Alpine's parallel machine learning engine.
As a result, in correlation with Alpine's Touchpoints control-ware, the Custom Operator Framework enables data science and business analyst teams to create, manage and distribute frequently-requested analytic assets to business users directly into their existing activities and workflows.
