Pirates deal Dickerson to Padres
Bucs add Decker, Mikolas; release McPherson, Jones
By John Parker / MiLB.com | November 25, 2013 4:38 PM ET
The Pirates made a flurry of roster moves Monday, sending prospect Alex Dickerson to the Padres in return for fellow outfielder Jaff Decker and right-handed reliever Miles Mikolas. To make room for the new arrivals on their 40-man roster, the Pirates designated 1B/RF Garrett Jones and RHP Kyle McPherson for assignment.
Dickerson becomes the No. 11 prospect in the Padres system after ranking No. 13 with the Pirates. The 23-year-old was a third-round pick out of the University of Indiana in 2011 and is a career .295/.352/.475 hitter in 296 Minor League games. A left-handed hitter like Decker, Dickerson batted .288/.337/.494 for Double-A Altoona this season and was twice named Eastern League Player of the Week as well as earning league postseason All-Star honors. His 17 homers were fourth-most in the Pirates system this season and his .288 average ranked third among qualified full-season hitters.
Also 23, Decker was the 42nd overall pick in the 2008 Draft. He hit .299/.442/.514 as a 19-year-old in his first taste of full-season ball, helping Fort Wayne to the 2009 Midwest League title. Decker clubbed a career-high 19 homers for Double-A San Antonio in 2011 and owns a .402 on-base percentage in 529 career Minor League games.
Decker batted .286/.381/.443 with 10 home runs in 105 games for Triple-A Tucson this season and made his Major League debut with the Padres on June 20, going 4-for-26 (.154) with one homer in 13 big league games.
Mikolas, 25, went 4-2 with a 3.25 ERA in 54 appearances for Tucson in 2013 and ranked third in the Pacific Coast League with 26 saves in 30 opportunities. The Nova Southeastern product made 25 appearances with the Padres in 2012 but played in just two big league games this season.
McPherson, who turned 26 earlier this month, was the Pirates' Minor League Pitcher of the Year in 2011. The Alabama native made his big league debut in 2012, going 0-2 with a 2.73 ERA in 10 games (six starts), but appeared in just two Triple-A games in 2013 before undergoing Tommy John surgery on July 10.
The 32-year-old Jones spent the last four seasons as a full-time Pirate and hit a career-high 27 homers in 2012. He batted .233/.289/.419 with 15 home runs this past season, almost entirely against right-handed pitching. The lefty was 2-for-21 against southpaws.
In another move on Monday, San Diego sent reliever Brad Brach to Baltimore in exchange for Devin Jones, who split the season between Class A Advanced Frederick and Double-A Bowie. The 23-year-old righty was 5-7 with a 5.64 ERA over 25 starts.
It was also a busy day for the Nationals, who added 23-year-old outfielder John Wooten from the A's in exchange or Fernando Abad. Wooten hit .257 with 20 homers and 69 RBIs over 133 games for Class A Beloit. It was his first full season.

G'day lads,
I have a 1tb drive with 4 partitions:
sda1 is 40gb NTFS with Windows 7 x64
sda2 is 10gb Ext3 with Backtrack 3
sda3 is 10gb Ext3 (i wish to install BT4F here)
sda5 is 871gb NTFS (storage)
My problem is that when I run install.sh there is no option to install Backtrack 4 onto sda3
the only choices it gives me are to resize sda5 or nuke the lot.
Is there a way to install BT4F to sda3 or is my only option to resize sda5 so that the BT4 partition is last?
I haven't tried using the old BT3.kmdr installer yet but i'm guessing it won't work because BT4 is completely different.

He turned to acting in TV's The Substitute (1993), and earned nods from critics for his portrayal of Dirk Diggler in 1997's Boogie Nights (co-starring Don Cheadle). Late in the decade he starred with chum George Clooney in two more hits, Three Kings (1999) and The Perfect Storm (2000, also with Diane Lane). He has since carved out a career as a leading player of the Everyman variety. His other films include the re-make of The Italian Job (with Mos Def); Rock Star (2001, with Jennifer Aniston); as 30-year-old NFL rookie Vince Papale in the 2006 film Invincible; Martin Scorsese's The Departed (2006); M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening (2008, with Zooey Deschanel); Max Payne (2008, with Ludacris); and The Other Guys (2010, with Will Ferrell).

Self-proclaimed "missionary to the media" Falwell made 12th media appearance since election
Research ››› ››› NICOLE CASTA & KATIE BARGE
Reverend Jerry Falwell's December 2 appearance on MSNBC's Hardball with Chris Matthews marked his 12th media appearance on a major news program since the November 2 presidential election.
On Hardball, Falwell and Matthews discussed an advertisement for the United Church of Christ (UCC) that CBS, UPN, and NBC recently refused to air. The ad depicts bouncers outside a church turning away minority, disabled, and apparently gay parishioners. Falwell argued that unlike the minority and disabled parishioners, the gay people depicted in the ad were not born gay, because nobody "is born a bank robber or born a hostile left-winger or a hostile right-winger or gay or a promiscuous heterosexual." Rather, Falwell argued, the gay couple in the ad chose to be gay, because "all behavior is chosen." When Matthews asked Falwell if he chose to be heterosexual, Falwell answered, "I did." But moments later, when Matthews noted that when Falwell started dating he "chose girls," Falwell said, "I never had to decide. I never thought about it."
The media provides a frequent forum for Falwell, who considers himself "a missionary to the media," despite his incendiary rhetoric and false claims (which Media Matters for America has compiled). Since November 2, Falwell has appeared at least 12 times (according to a search of transcripts available on Nexis) on NBC, MSNBC, CNN, FOX News Channel or C-SPAN:
- CNN's Crossfire on December 2 (Falwell served as guest co-host)
- CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 on November 3, 5 and 29
- CNN's Paula Zahn Now on November 8 and 23
- CNN's Lou Dobbs Tonight on November 18
- CNN's American Morning on November 4
- MSNBC's Hardball on December 2
- NBC's Meet the Press on November 28
- FOX News' Hannity & Colmes on November 22
- C-SPAN's Washington Journal on November 14
In a November 10, 1999, commentary, Falwell explained his "rationale" for his "frequent media appearances." Falwell stated: "A quarter century ago, God gave me my instructions regarding taking the Christian worldview to the public square. ... I have a calling from God: I utilize the secular media because I feel a personal calling and Divine enablement to confront the culture." Falwell went on to say that "I feel I must go to them through secular, pagan, prime-time media. This is my prophetic ministry: I utilize the secular media to lift up a biblical standard against the broad forces of darkness." Falwell added that "I average doing five-to-10 secular, and usually national, television and radio shows each week because I consider myself a missionary to the media."
Author and CNN host Tucker Carlson had this to say about Falwell's frequent media appearances in his book Politicians, Parasites and Partisans: My Adventures in Cable News (Warner Books, 2003): "For Falwell, appearing on television is an intrinsically positive event, a self-justifying act, an end in itself. Jerry Falwell does TV because he believes it is Good. In a theological sense. I remember how disappointed I was when I figured this out. I'd gone to the interview assuming that Falwell would live up to his reputation as an uncompromising right-wing ideologue. Instead, he was just another publicity hound."
From the December 2 edition of Hardball:
FALWELL: They're [the UCC] saying that the African-American, the Hispanic, the handicapped and then the gay couple or all four bona fide minorities. I would disagree. The two ethnic persons are as God made them, as I am Caucasian.
MATTHEWS: Right.
FALWELL: The handicapped person, behind his power, his handicap.
MATTHEWS: Right.
FALWELL: And the gay couple. They chose to marry each other.
MATTHEWS: How did they get to be gay, though?
FALWELL: Well, we probably differ there.
MATTHEWS: I'm asking.
FALWELL: But I think all behavior is chosen.
MATTHEWS: I'm open. I don't know.
FALWELL: I think that --
MATTHEWS: Did you choose to be heterosexual?
FALWELL: I did.
MATTHEWS: You chose it? You thought about it and you came up with that solution? That lifestyle?
FALWELL: Put it this way. I was taught as a child that's the right way to --
MATTHEWS: But did you feel an attraction toward women?
FALWELL: Oh, of course.
MATTHEWS: When people are born and they find themselves having an attraction to somebody from the same sex, do you think that's a choice?
FALWELL: I think you can experiment with any kind of perversity and develop an appetite for it, just like you can food.
MATTHEWS: You don't think it's nature? You think it's nurture.
FALWELL: I don't think any -- I don't think anybody is born a bank robber or born a hostile left-winger or a hostile right-winger or gay or a promiscuous heterosexual. I think there comes a time in childhood where environment may be a part of it, whatever, teaching, instruction, one chooses, I will do this or that. And that's why good, godly parenting --
MATTHEWS: How old were you when you chose to be heterosexual?
FALWELL: Oh, I don't remember that.
MATTHEWS: Well, you must, because you say it's a big decision.
FALWELL: Well, I started dating when I was about 13.
MATTHEWS: And you had to decide between boys and girls. And you chose girls.
FALWELL: I never had to decide. I never thought about it.
MATTHEWS: I think it's a ridiculous proposition that you actually sit down and decide. Let me see, boy or girl this week. Anyway --
FALWELL: I don't think anybody does that.

UTOSC — Day 1
First things first, before I forget (something, sadly, that is more commonplace these days — what was I saying again?); It's good to see that the Utah Open Source Conference, now in its third year, is growing into one of the more established events on the annual GNU/Linux (or Linux, take your pick) calendar.
The reason I say that is because after a conversation with Will Smith — the UTOSC guy, not the actor — I was surprised that the event has come quite far in only three years. UTOSC is clearly one that I am going to mark on my annual calendar.
Day 1 at UTOSC — and this is from the perspective of the Fedora booth, where I am parked — started out quietly and as the day progressed, became busier with more visitors, questions and comments about the distro.
At 12:30 or a bit later, I was marshalling the forces for a Fedora Activity Day in one of the classrooms at Salt Lake City Community College, the venue for UTOSC. I say "marshalling" because the best part of organizing a FAD is letting people who know more than you take off with it after you introduce it. Such is the case at this event, with the FAD around Fedora Event Splash, or FES. After introducing it, both Ian Weller and Clint Savage — both of whom had been working on it for several months — took the reins and we had a productive meeting that Fedora folks will hear more about going forward.
Later in the day, Clint walked in and said "Here, you'll like this," and handed me a box. I looked quickly inside and noticed what I thought was a . . . tent? Actually, it was the vertical banners for the Fedora booth, a new addition to the event box.
Day 2, which starts in a few hours, appears to be shaping up to be another great day at UTOSC. More to follow.

Predator Becomes Prey: Microsoft Sued Over Windows 8, WinPhone "Live Tiles"
Jason Mick
October 31, 2012 2:00 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Microsoft finds itself on the defensive for once
Somewhere in Germany sit stocks of handsets from Google Inc. (
) subsidiary Motorola Mobility. The handsets were
seized by German authorities
after the courts found that the onboard mobile operating system likely violated user interface and file system patents owned by Microsoft Corp. (
) makers of the ubiquitous Windows operating system. Soon the handsets may be destroyed.
But after preying on newcomers to the operating system world like Google's
pay-or-be-sued approach
, Microsoft finds itself in the crosshairs of a major mobile suit that could compromise its most critical platform launch -- the
Windows 8
Windows Phone 8
The case lands in an unusual jurisdiction --
U.S. District Court for the District of Maine
-- far from Microsoft's home on the West Coast. The suit alleges Microsoft "stole" the concept Live Tiles, which the plaintiffs claim they invented in 2000 and received a patent for in 2004, with
U.S. Patent 6,724,403
Customizable Live Tiles in Windows Phone 8
The owners founded a startup named
. They describe it, writing:
SurfCast designs Operating System technology and has four issued patents with additional applications pending.
SurfCast designed a new concept referred to as 'Tiles'.
Tiles can be thought of as dynamically updating icons. A Tile is different from an icon because it can be both selectable and live -- containing refreshed content that provides a real-time or near-real-time view of the underlying information.
Tiles can provide dynamic bookmarking -- an at-a-glance view of the current status of the program, file, or content associated with it.
Tiles enable people to have all their content, applications, and resources, regardless of whether on their mobile device, tablet, computer, or in their Cloud -- visualized persistently -- dynamically updating.
It's hard to deny Microsoft's Live Tiles narrowly mirror the technology described in SurfStar's patents, which came out before the Live Tiles landed as part of the "Metro UI" in Windows Phone's 2009 launch.
SurfStar's Live Tiles (left) are uncannily like Microsoft's Live Tiles (right).
Microsoft appears to have known for some time about SurfStar's IP, so this suit shouldn't come as a big surprise. The electronics giant in 2005 tried to patent Live Tiles with
U.S. Patent 7,933,632
. The patent was finally granted in 2011, but only after Microsoft cited SurfStar's "relevant prior art".
The SurfStar suit targets "Windows Phone, Microsoft Surface with the Windows RT Operating System, Microsoft Windows RT, Microsoft Windows 8, Microsoft Windows 8 Pro, and Microsoft Windows 8 Enterprise Operating System" -- pretty much all of Microsoft's next-gen operating system platform. SurfStar also suggest that devices with Windows 8 or Windows 8 apps that use animated Live Tiles may also be in infringement and potentially liable for future damages.
SurfStar asks the court to force Microsoft to "account and pay to SurfCast all damages caused to SurfCast by reason of Microsoft's patent infringement."
On the surface (no pun intended) it appears that SurfStar has a compelling and valid case, but it's always hard to pick out savvy trolls from earnest inventors. Either way, the turn of events is certainly highly ironic, given the hell Microsoft has put Android through in terms of aggressive intellectual property threats and litigation.

Who the eff is coppin the 5? Seriously, I have 0 interest in this phone.
@jrhudson, Do you think everyone on modmyi only uses Apple products? A lot of us use different devices, from companies other than Apple. So maybe that's why they are here. It's not unthinkable that someone has both a S3 and a iPhone...I use both iOS & Android devices daily.
All yall apple haters get off this site man yall just hating cuz yall cant afford an apple product just go get yo lil S3 and stop complaining!
I don't get the people that just want to say "If you don't love Apple then leave!". This USED to be a tech site about iPhone mods and hacks and it's turned into some strange fanboy defense mechanism. From a technical aspect there is nothing amazing about the new iPhone. Software-wise it's basically the same as the 4s. If you want a bigger screen for $200-400, or whatever the price ranges are, then go for it. Why bash the people that don't understand the relevance of the device though? Kind of childish and catty. Some people actually like to use forums for discussion, debate, and the exchange of ideas/experiences, not just to blindly praise a company that only wants your money.
I've have both the IP4S and a Galaxy Note. (Prior to that I had the SII, which I kept a little over 1 month. I thought it would solve me lack of a 4S jailbreak itch). It was just two similar, yet inferior for my needs, to the iPhone 4S, so it got the boot.
The first month I had the Note, I carried both phones around with me (two separate numbers). I couldn't be without my iPhone. Second month I got a sim adapter and put my primary number sim in the Note, to be forced to use it realistically as my daily device. That lastest about 3 weeks and then I started back using my iphone as my primary phone and carrying around the Note for show and note taking. This went on until May when the 4S untethered Jailbreak became available. After that it was a wrap and the Note has been trapped in my work bag ever since, only seeing occasional internet and email usage or as a remote for my Samsung LED.
My point is I've tried for almost 1 year, started last summer with the Galaxy tab to compare with my ipad 2, to really like and use Android/Samsung products. (The tab was returned within 30 days-best buy return policy..ha). The entire Android/Samsung experience just has not worked out for me. They are nice products and they look great, but android just proved to be a headache for me. Will I upgrade to the IP5 yes, why? Well, because Apple is finally giving me everything that I wanted in a phone (LTE, somewhat of a bigger screen, and faster wifi that will finally work flawlessly with my Apple TV, all the apps I still know and love (not to mention spent a small fortune on, without a lot of fluff and unnecessary software/bloatware. I'm probably going to go through withdrawals until a jailbreak is available, but I'll live with it. I am disappointed in the lack of tru inovation by apple, bc it does still look almost the same as it did before (4 and 4S). Honestly I've not found anything else that fits my needs better. Now I just need to decide if I really want to pay $400 to get locked into another 2 year contract and keep both lines. Or upgrade my original number for full price....OUCH!!!! I hate you Apple for making mediocre products that may not have the flash and big screens like others, but dammit you know how to make a great phone that provides people with what they want.
That being said. I see why Apple isn't going for homeruns. I think a lot of phones out there have pointless tech crammed into them. I'd rather have something that improves on the general things that I use, works well and has focuses on being a solid product. It comes down to user preference, that's about it.
Everyone keeps saying the iPhone 5 doesn't have anything that's "new and impressive" what are you people expecting? Im really confused as to what you expect to get out of a phone? What do these other devices that you speak of do that the iPhone 5 doesn't do that's so "new and impressive" ?
iPhone 5 is not just a larger screen. I keep hearing people saying this.
- 4" Screen
- A6 processor (best in the industry) I can't wait for benchmark tests!
- LTE without loosing battery life!
- Improved audio over 4s
Reason why I like my iPhones:
- Ease of use, my 3 yr old knows how to navigate it. She can take pictures and view them, and plays multiple games. She can do all this from lock screen.
- Quality product (software and hardware)
- 100,000+ apps. I have an investment $300+ including music.

Samsung Electronics has unveiled an engineering sample of its application processor using 32nm HKMG logic process. Codenamed Saratoga, the new application processor was designed to provide a low power, high performance and cost effective solution for next-generation consumer electronics products such as PND, electronics dictionaries and e-book readers.
"We announced in June this year the successful qualification of our 32nm HKMG low power logic process and design ecosystem," said Kwang-hyun Kim, senior VP of System LSI Sales and Marketing, Samsung. "Saratoga is the world's first application processor that is implemented in this 32nm process which offers lower leakage current, higher performance, and higher gate density."
Likes its 45nm predecessor, the 32nm Saratoga application processor is based on an ARM1176 CPU core. It features 2D graphics acceleration hardware that supports the OpenVG API standard. Saratoga is also equipped with a MIPI display serial interface which minimizes the EMI and lowers the number of pins needed to connect with the display panel, greatly reducing design complexity and cost.

Freezer buildings on the Bull's Head Wharf Road were destroyed by fire on Sept. 25, 2010. Losses from the fire are the subject of a lawsuit in the Nova Scotia Supreme Court.
File photo
By Greg Bennett
A court battle over fish lost in a series of Cape Sable Island fires may continue on for another day as a result of a Nova Scotia Supreme Court decision issued on Feb. 24.
Merex Incorporated is suing to recover its losses from three fires at the Stoney Island Fisheries facility.
The lawsuit was launched almost four years ago claiming that the fishing company was negligent in caring for the stored fish in a Dec. 2008 fire. Merex added the insurance company Lloyds to the suit after two more fires at the facility during August and September of 2010.
Merex is claiming losses totaling more than $1.4-million.
Stoney Island Fisheries was seeking to have the claim dismissed through a summary judgment but Justice John D. Murphy rejected the company's arguments noting that it has the burden to prove that neglect did not cause the damages.
The Justice did find that the insurance company Lloyds has no obligation to Merex for the product destroyed in the fires – unless, among other things, there is a judgment against Stoney Island Fisheries for being legally liable for the losses.
The 2010 fires at the Cape Sable Island facility were pegged as suspicious early on in the investigation by RCMP.
The first fire occurred in August and destroyed a bait shed and storage building.
At the second fire at the facility, four departments were dispatched to the blaze on the Bull's Head Wharf Road just after 2 a.m. on Sept. 25, 2010. Firefighters arrived to find one of the freezer buildings engulfed in flames.
The freezer building, which contained a large quantity of fish products, was adjacent to the bait shed and storage building that was destroyed by fire the previous month.
Barrington RCMP say the case surrounding the 2010 arsons at the Stoney Island facility remains unsolved.

Feeling depressed involves dwelling on negative thoughts about oneself and one's life. The experience of depression is usually tied to our temporary inability to break the cycle of negative thinking. Learning how to challenge our negative thoughts and develop a more hopeful outlook is a crucial life skill that can be learned with practice and guidance. Developing a lifestyle based on resilience and acceptance is fundamental to experiencing satisfaction and minimizing heartache. Let us work together towards that goal! The opposite of depression is not happiness, but vitality!

Depression can be isolating and, most often, results in a sense of helplessness--as if you are in a hole and unable to dig or climb yourself out. I provide a sense of emotional safety and security where one can begin to explore the origins of their depression and how to overcome those overwhelming feelings. Through talk therapy, and various methods such as cognitive behavior and acceptance, one can reduce their alienation and begin to acquire a sense of hope. Learning coping strategies and self-empowerment also achieves a sense of ability with regard to being in the present and moving toward the future.

As a therapist it is necessary to meet a client where they are at in sessions. Negative thinking and self talk is at the core of all depression. In sessions individuals learn to restructure their thought processes and behaviors so they look upon their future with hope.

Depression can be a difficult thing for many people to understand. It's connected to a lot of shame, guilt, and low self-esteem. Without addressing these associated problems, it can be difficult to come out on the other side.

The International Year of Crystallography 2014 (IYCr 2014) highlights the continuing importance of crystallography.
It celebrates the centennial of X-ray diffraction. William Henry and William Lawrence Bragg showed that diffracted X-rays can be used to map the positions of atoms within a crystal. This allowed the detailed study of crystalline material.
Additionally, it commemorates the 400th anniversary of Kepler's first studies which lead in 1611 to the observation of the symmetrical form of ice crystals. This was the beginning of the wider study of the role of symmetry in matter.

Blind Riddles Articles
Blind Items on cheaters, affairs, love triangles, studio drama, power struggles, and other juicy smut.
Doing it through the underwear hole
Inexplicably, he's been linked to some really hot, pretty famous women, even though he's not exactly hot and he behaves, at least artistically, like a douchebag. What's the attraction? Certainly not his sex moves. This won't solve the mystery either. When it's time to f-ck, he doesn't like doing it at home. Full Story
She lost the cover
It's an opportunity that's been withheld from some of the most famous women in the world. It's considered a major honour – to make the cover, THAT cover, a cover her predecessors had achieved and one that was being offered to her just as she was moving forward with the next stage in her career. Full Story
Big super secret hookup
There's a reason she recently decided to flaunt her brand new relationship so publicly. Suddenly she'd found true love behind the scenes? And they were telling magazines about it? And getting papped on holiday in Europe? It was because she was sending a message. To the major Hollywood player with whom she'd been having an affair for 6 months. Full Story
What he does in his room
After a series of sh-tty relationships, she thought she'd finally found the one. He says the right things, he wants to be with her all the time, he isn't embarrassed to be seen with her. And he's not motivated to do much other than to be with her. Life is not particularly challenging for either of them. Full Story
Deal with the paps
She hates the paps, and she's been burned by the paps. So now she's dealing with the paps and is working exclusively with one agency, agreeing to give them photos on a regular basis. The agreement started several months ago when she approached one agency in exchange for information on a paparazzo working for another agency. Full Story
Nanny Diaries
No one wants to work with Hollywood's most difficult mother. She now has a reputation among child care agencies for being the most unpopular celebrity nanny employer and many now only send to her the nannies on their staff who specialise in dealing with mega bitch moms. She is surprisingly less organised than you would think, often requesting services with no lead time and expecting to be offered priority treatment. Full Story
Doing it to get her back
We were all a little sad, I think, when it was confirmed that they'd broken up. No one sadder than him. But she left him because of his drinking. It was excessive, and with the experience of her last relationship, she saw the signs and opted for self-preservation. In addition to his relationship with alcohol though, he also had an unconventional relationship with sex. Full Story
Mother Issues
She's a mega-star who started young and seemed to not be affected by the child star curse. Seemed to be. But eventually, that sh-t will find you, even on a delay. It's the mother. Though the parents were previously thought to be harmless... the mother now appears to be going full Dina Lohan. Full Story
Cold Young Feet?
At a pre-Oscar party this weekend... He's young, super hot, and engaged. To someone also young, also hot, and arguably more famous, for now. But she wasn't with him. Which is why he could focus all his attention on someone else -- a beautiful girl made famous by a franchise who is growing out her hair while his fiancée currently prefers it the opposite way. Full Story
Exes & Wives
Just some personality and colour I thought you might enjoy... Comeback Kid only dates famous girls. When he and Golden were together, he stepped out on her twice that she knows of: once with a stripper and the other with Pigtails. But even though it's been years, and she's well moved on, Golden still has a hard time hearing Pigtails' music. Full Story
He wants, she doesn't
The assumption: that in any discussion about marriage and babies, she's the one who wants it and would have his immediately if only he'd ask. But he's the one who wants, or at least is leaning more towards having kids, than she is. HE is the one who wants to start a family with HER. Full Story

H.R. 4012 - The Construction Quality Assurance Act
Mr. Chairman, Members of the Subcommittee, I am pleased to discuss with you today the Administration's views on H.R. 4012, the "Construction Quality Assurance Act of 2000." At the outset, I want to emphasize that the Administration shares the Subcommittee's desire to ensure quality construction on Federal public works projects. In my capacity as the Deputy Associate Administrator for Acquisition Policy of the agency primarily responsible for Federal public works construction, I fully appreciate the need to make the most effective use possible of taxpayer dollars on our construction projects. Contracting Officers and Program Managers in the construction business today have available to them a mixed set of tools. These tools range from traditional sealed bid contracting to the more recently authorized two-phase design-build selection procedures. These options make it possible for contracting officers to use the source selection process that will achieve the best results given the nature of any particular construction project. Irrespective of the process used, our overall goal is always the same: to take full advantage of competition and structure contracts to effectively incentivize quality and timely contractor performance.
H.R. 4012 raises the issue of whether our ability to achieve this goal is being undermined by "bid shopping" and "bid peddling." The bill finds that prime construction contractors, after being awarded a contract by a Federal agency, may seek or otherwise be induced to subcontract with lower price subcontractors to increase their profits. The bill states that bid shopping and bid peddling result in the use of subcontractors with questionable abilities that expose Federal construction projects to the dangers of substandard performance. To address this concern, H.R. 4012 would direct executive agencies to require that bidders for Federal construction contracts over $1,000,000 include in their offers specific information about subcontractors who would perform work over $100,000 under the contract. Contractors would be required to show good cause and seek a contracting officer's approval in order to substitute a subcontractor in place of one listed in the original offer. The government could impose damages on contractors who violated the substitution requirements, and repeated violations (where damages were imposed) could serve as grounds for possible debarment or suspension of a contractor from Federal contracts.
The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) does not currently include the subcontractor listing requirements called for by H.R. 4012. The FAR instead relies on our Contracting Officers to enter into effective contracts that hold prime contractors accountable for the performance of their subcontractors - a customary commercial practice. This notwithstanding, the FAR precludes a contractor from entering into a subcontract in excess of $25,000 with a contractor that is debarred, suspended, or proposed for debarment unless there is a compelling reason to do so. (This requirement is set forth at FAR 9.409(b) and FAR clause 52.209-6.) Before entering into a subcontract with a party that is debarred, suspended, or proposed for debarment, a corporate officer or a designee of the contractor must, among other things, provide the Contracting Officer with compelling reasons for doing business with the subcontractor notwithstanding its inclusion on the List of Parties Excluded from Federal Procurement and Nonprocurement Programs ("the list").
Beginning in 1984, GSA has included a clause in all building construction, alteration and repair contracts precluding the successful bidder from subcontracting with any contractor who, at the time of subcontract award, is identified on the list. Since that time, GSA is not aware of major resultant problems in its construction program or significant problems with inferior work due to bid shopping or peddling.
The Administration believes that mandating subcontractor listing requirements for our construction contracts as H.R. 4012 proposes would create more harm than benefit and strongly opposes H.R. 4012 for the following reasons. First, locking a prime contractor into business relationships that can be revised only with the permission of the contracting officer is contrary to the commercial practice of holding prime contractors accountable for properly managing their subcontracts. The bill would insert the contracting officer into contractor management decisions that should best reside with the contractor. There is little or no protection to be gained by the government through this process, because the government does not control the subcontractors used in the original bid or offer. Focusing instead on desired mission-related outcomes and tying payment to the contractor's success in achieving those outcomes -- a performance-based approach -- puts the burden of good contract performance on the contractor and enhances performance. The government's protection lies not in micro-managing the prime contractor, but rather in being a smart buyer, specifying the right quality, and holding the contractor and its subcontractors to meeting the specifications by performing sufficient quality inspections to ensure they are met.
Second, subcontractor- listing requirements could adversely affect the timeliness and cost of contract performance and would increase the government's administrative expenses. The process for changing a designated subcontractor is cumbersome and could well have an impact on the work completion schedule as well as any efforts of other subcontractors whose work is dependent on the replacement subcontractor. As a practical matter, a prime contractor may not be able to identify all subcontractors at the time of proposal. Often, a prime contractor proposes based on estimates and past experience. Prime contractors deprived of this flexibility might well decide not to bid on government construction contracts or, alternatively, submit higher bids that could increase the cost to construct public works. We are concerned that this would likely reduce the quality of the winning contractor's subcontract team if we force prime contractors to enter into binding relationships with potential subcontractors prior to award of the prime contract. No one contractor is going to be able to lock in each of the best subcontractors. One prime contract competitor will get the best mechanical, another will get the best electrical, and so on.
Third, the Bill would negatively impact the overall quality of the subcontractors by forcing primes to "sub-up" prior to contract award, thus depriving the prime and the government of the best subcontract team. Prime contractors sometimes enter into exclusive agreements with subcontractors. Because of such arrangements, the best subcontractors may not be available for Government work if they are part of a losing bid. The Bill would promote these practices to the Government's detriment.
Lastly, the bill could draw the government into disputes between contractors and their subcontractors, with concomitant liability. A major tenet of government contracting is that the Federal government has no privity of contract with subcontractors. This bill blurs that distinction and is unacceptable on that basis alone.
On a historical note, GSA adopted a policy similar to that in H.R. 4012 in 1963. We required bidders on construction contracts to submit with their bids the name and address of their subcontractors for designated categories of work. The intent was to curtail the practice of bid shopping by the successful bidder for lower subcontract prices after bids were publicly opened. We were concerned that in many instances bid shopping had resulted in substandard work by lower price subcontractors whose competence and responsibility were questionable. We also believed that the elimination of bid shopping would create a competitive market among construction subcontractors, with resultant savings accruing to the government. GSA's subcontractor listing requirements subsequently were included in GSA's procurement regulations.
During the late 1970's, GSA met with various general contractor groups such as the Associated General Contractors of America, subcontractor groups such as the American Subcontractors Association, and specialty subcontractor firms. The ultimate result of several months of discussions with these groups resulted in the agreement that the administrative burden to manage subcontractor-listing efforts exceeded the benefits.
In 1983, based on 20 years of experience with GSA's subcontractor listing requirement, GSA decided to eliminate the requirement and to add a construction subcontractor eligibility requirement. The new requirement incorporated a clause in all building construction, alteration and repair contracts precluding the successful bidder from subcontracting with any contractor who, at the time of subcontract award, was identified on the list.
We published the proposed change in the Federal Register for public comment in October 1983. Our notice explained that during the past several years, bidding problems and protests related to the listing of subcontractor's requirement adversely affected the GSA construction program. These problems resulted in delays in awards of contracts. Low bids were sometimes rejected, preventing the timely completion of important projects and resulted in higher procurement costs. The purposes of the proposed change were to simplify procurement procedures, reduce paperwork burdens associated with procurement, establish uniformity with other Federal construction agencies which for the most part, did not require subcontractor listing, and to eliminate potential delays and financial losses experienced as a result of the listing requirement.
GSA received numerous responses to its Federal Register notice from individual contractors, subcontractors, and specialty contractors, as well as their local and national associations and representatives. After reviewing the comments received in opposition to the proposed change, we found no evidence that the elimination of the subcontractor listing requirement would cause the prime contractors to bid shop, those few subcontractors now covered by the listing requirement to provide inferior work or to submit inflated bids, or the prime contractor to reap a windfall at the expense of the subcontractor or the government.
Accordingly, GSA concluded that eliminating the subcontractor- listing requirement would be in the government's best interest and published a final rule in the Federal Register on February 15, 1984. Since that time, as I noted earlier, GSA is not aware of major problems in its construction program due to the elimination of the subcontractor-listing requirement.
Mr. Chairman, Members of the Committee, for the reasons I have just outlined, the Administration strongly urges the Subcommittee not to impose subcontractor listing requirements on Federal construction contracts. The potentially significant resources that would otherwise be required to carry out H.R. 4012 should instead remain fully focused on the smartest application possible of the acquisition tools available to our workforce today. This focus will better serve our taxpayers in achieving the positive results on our construction contracts that we jointly desire.
This concludes my prepared statement. I would be pleased to answer any questions you may have.

Wash. Post editorial's "broad look" at U.S. poverty falsely claimed Bush poverty increases started under Clinton
A September 19 Washington Post editorial [1] falsely asserted that the overall poverty rate in the United States has steadily increased "since 1999." In fact, the poverty rate decreased during every year of President Clinton's tenure -- indeed, the rate was even lower in 2000 than it was in 1999 -- and has increased every year since President Bush took office. Further, while the editorial purported to present a "broad look at poverty in America," which it claimed "shows significant, and in some case impressive, progress," the Post never mentioned to readers the reversal of this progress that has occurred under the Bush administration, in some cases providing misleading statistics that hide this fact.
The Post editorial noted that the total poverty rate [2] has "disturbingly" increased in recent years:
The overall poverty rate fell from 19 percent in 1964 to 12.7 percent last year, though most of that decline occurred during the first decade. Since 1999, the rate has been edging steadily, and disturbingly, upward.
But the claim that the poverty rate has continuously increased "since 1999" is patently false. In fact, the rate dropped from 11.9 percent in 1999 to 11.3 percent in 2000, Clinton's final year in the White House. It has since risen every year that Bush has been in office, from 11.7 percent in 2001 to 12.7 percent in 2004.
And, in an example of the use of misleading statistics, the Post noted that the poverty rate among children [3] is higher now than it was in the 1970s but failed to mention that, as with the overall poverty rate, the rate decreased every year under the Clinton administration and has risen every year since Bush took office. Between 1993 and 2000, the percentage of children under the age of 18 living in poverty dropped from 22.7 percent to 16.2 percent. Since 2001, that share has increased to 17.8 percent.
The Post went on to highlight the fact that poverty among African-Americans [2] has greatly improved since President Lyndon B. Johnson's 1964 pledge [4] to "help replace their despair with opportunity":
In 1959, the first year poverty statistics were collected, 55 percent of African Americans were below the poverty line. By 1966, that had fallen to 41.8 percent; it was 24.7 percent last year.
While it is correct that the number of African-Americans living in poverty has decreased dramatically over the past 40 years, it also bears mentioning that the percentage fell under Clinton, from 33.1 percent in 1993 to 22.5 percent in 2000. By contrast, from 2001 to 2004, the poverty rate among African-Americans increased from 22.7 percent to 24.7 percent.
In the same vein, the Post noted that the poverty rate among families headed by African-American single mothers [2] has decreased during the past decade:
Some of the most dramatic gains have been made in recent years by black women. Before 1994, well over half of households headed by African American women lived beneath the poverty level; that number has since dropped below 40 percent.
But the Post failed to note that these "dramatic gains" occurred during Clinton's tenure in the White House. Between 1993 and 2000, the percentage of families in this category fell from 53 percent to 38.6 percent. During Bush's first four years in office, however, that rate has climbed from 37.4 percent to 39.5 percent.

Zombies Takeover Blue Ox Millworks
Zombies are set to take over the historic Blue Ox Millworks for a haunted house tour put on by the North Coast Repertory Theater. Volunteers have been working to transform the 1900s building and surrounding yard to be a haunted meat packing plant.
Tour Coordinator, David Hamilton, said transforming the area was easy.
"Just seemed like a perfect marriage of creepy old building with a fabulous history," said Hamilton.
About 50 volunteers will be acting as zombies, blacksmiths and other characters for the tour.
Chyna Leigh, the makeup and effects designer, said it is a huge job doing makeup on all the volunteers.
"I have never tackled anything quite like this before. It's a massive undertaking," said Leigh.
Several organizers working on setting up for the tour have been scared themselves said Hamilton.
"They will come back in shaking because something will have happened out there that really spooked them," said Hamilton.
Employees of the mill have told Hamilton that they believe they have experienced ghosts at the site before.
"There are actually rumors of the place actually being haunted. That's a little extra scary even for the people who are working here," said Hamilton.
"It's dark there's noises that we can't explain. I'm a skeptic, but I have definitely been creped out," said Leigh.
The tour will be open Friday, Saturday, Oct. 30th and Halloween from eight till midnight.

Best Uses
This case has a nice heft to it ensuring your phone is protected. Because I switch the chip when I am travelling in the States, I especially like the ease with which you can take the top off and slide the phone out. That you can charge simply by pivoting out the plug prongs is GREAT! I am glad that I made this purchase.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Tucson Padres' future unknown for now
Moorad mulls options as original Escondido plan falls through
By Benjamin Hill and Danny Wild / MLB.com | January 20, 2012 11:41 AM ET
The Padres previously operated as the Portland Beavers, but were forced out of the city after the 2010 season when their PGE Park home was converted to a soccer stadium. San Diego Padres owner Jeff Moorad then purchased the club with the intent of relocating the club to Escondido, a city just 30 miles from San Diego. The team moved to Tucson as a stopgap solution while Moorad's ownership group worked to secure funding for a new stadium in the Escondido area (often referred to as California's "North County").
Those funds may never materialize. The state budget passed by the California legislature in July eliminated redevelopment agencies, and last month the state Supreme Court upheld this decision. This turn of events has stripped Escondido of the public redevelopment funds it would have used to build the stadium. Escondido had supported the idea of a new ballpark, but only if it was paid for by the redevelopment funds. The San Diego Union-Tribune reported that the city has spent $350,000 on environmental studies in preparation for ballpark construction, in addition to spending more than $11 million on land in the proposed stadium area.
Moorad said his ownership group would "probably sell the team if it is not located in the North County," according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.
"We heard from three cities outside the state," Moorad told the paper, which reported that El Paso, Texas, is among the cities interested. "We have not heard directly from any city inside the state (of California). We needed to wait for the Supreme Court decision before we considered alternatives. In the next 90 days we will know if there is any serious interest in the North County.
"Escondido has been and remains our first choice. At this point, we will reconsider our options," Moorad said. "It is still our preference to be in the North County. Some in the North County are talking about other options. ... Those would have to develop quickly as we also pursue the opportunity to sell the club. We have been patient for more than a year."
The one certainty is that the club will remain in Tucson's Kino Stadium for at least the 2012 season. The facility is a viable option for the team as it previously hosted the PCL's Tucson Sidewinders (who relocated to Reno in 2009) and Major League Spring Training games. The Padres finished last in attendance in the Pacific Coast League last season, drawing 3,410 fans on average (Round Rock led the circuit with more than 8,500 per game).
