== Fuel Fix  ‘Gasland’ sequel accuses energy ==
 +
 +
<html>Associated Press
 +
 +
Josh Fox galvanized the U.S. anti-fracking movement with his incendiary 2010 documentary Gasland. Now he s back with a sequel ― and this time, he s targeting an audience of just one.
 +
 +
We want the president to watch the movie, and we want him to meet with the people who are in it, says Fox, whose Gasland Part II makes its HBO debut Monday.
 +
 +
He contends President Barack Obama s professed support of drilling and fracking for natural gas ignores the environmental and public health toll of the drilling boom: It looks like he s really sincere and earnest in , but he s got the completely wrong information and thus the completely wrong plan.
 +
 +
Shale gas:?
 +
 +
A typically bold statement from Fox,[http://park7.wakwak.com/~nymidi/cgi-bin/Y1dicPbUXGVlxwg5TR4vX/light.cgi?res=488 Questions To Ask Earlier than Hiring An website po], who s emerged as one of the nation s most visible and outspoken foes of the natural gas drilling industry.
 +
 +
Having made his name as an avant-garde theater director in New York City, Fox took an interest in drilling after a gas company approached him in 2008 about leasing his family s wooded 20-acre spread in Milanville, Pa.,[http://www.comebenezer.com/wiki/index.php?title=Usu%C3%A1rio:KevinLee202#BEIRUT-_Syrian_rebels_reject_Russian_claims_on_chemicals_0 BEIRUT- Syrian rebels reject Russian claims on chemicals 0], near the Delaware River. What resulted was Gasland, a polemic that argued energy companies are turning whole communities into toxic industrial wastelands.
 +
 +
Part II covers a lot of the same ground as the Emmy-winning and Oscar-nominated original, as Fox takes his banjo and camera on the road again to interview residents who say their air and water were contaminated by drilling. Beleaguered homeowners demonstrate how they can light their methane-laced tap water on fire ― same as in Gasland ― though the pyrotechnics in Part II are more spectacular.
 +
 +
What s new here is the focus on what Fox sees as the drilling industry s corrupting influence on politicians and regulators. In Gasland Part II, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is cast in the role of protector and defender. The agency starts to hold the industry to account for contaminating heavily drilled neighborhoods in Dimock, Pa.; Parker County, Texas; and Pavillion, Wyo. Then the drillers get to work, buying off politicians who, in turn, force the EPA to back off. Meanwhile, Obama s 2012 State of the Union address sets the tone for an election-year policy shift that replaces science with political expediency.
 +
 +
Sky is pink :?
 +
 +
Fox portrays an industry that is shadowy and malevolent,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Miami-Heat-Caps-014-17143/ Miami Heat Caps-014], the power behind the throne of government.
 +
 +
I felt like I could see it: a horizontal well bore, drilled down into the earth, snaking underneath the Congress, shooting money up through the chamber at such high pressure that it blew the top off of our democracy, he narrates. Another layer of contamination due to fracking, not the water, not the air, but our government.
 +
 +
Of course, the industry doesn t see it that way.  about fracking, the technique that s allowed drilling companies to extract huge volumes of natural gas from rock formations deep underground.
 +
 +
The real reason that shale development has expanded is not because of some nefarious plot on the part of industry leaders wearing black robes, writes Steve Everley of Energy In Depth, an industry-funded PR group. Rather, it s because people across the United States have recognized that there are massive environmental and economic benefits to be reaped. Both political parties are pushing for increased responsible natural gas production, and it s because of the facts, not because they ve been captured by Corporate America.
 +
 +
Attitudes and positions about fracking have only hardened since the original Gasland. Anti-drilling activists and Big Gas tend to view the other with profound distrust, and there is little common ground.
 +
 +
But the reality is more complicated than either side would probably care to admit.
 +
 +
Pro-gas:?
 +
 +
Landowners have become overnight millionaires, businesses catering to the gas industry have boomed and cheap gas has lowered utility bills. Some climate scientists say the rapid conversion of coal-fired power plants to natural gas has helped reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This is a side of the shale gas revolution that Gasland Part II ignores.
 +
 +
Yet it s also true that drilling has contaminated residential water wells and brought incredible truck traffic to rural roads never designed to handle it. Some residents have complained about underhanded industry leasing tactics; others assert that gas drilling has made them sick.
 +
 +
The industry s typical response? Gloss over problems or deny them outright.
 +
 +
Driving home the point, Part II plays audio from an industry conference in Texas at which a drilling company official encourages the use of military-style psychological operations, or PSYOPS, to counteract anti-fracking fervor. At the same conference, another company s PR rep urges his colleagues to read the military s counterinsurgency field manual because we are dealing with an insurgency ― namely, anti-drilling residents and environmentalists.
 +
 +
Fox said the industry has smeared homeowners who dared to speak up about their ruined water or ill health,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Nike-Panthers-1-Cam-Newton-Pink-Women-Draft-Him-II-Top-Jerseys-21910/ Nike Panthers 1 Cam Newton Pink Women Draft Him II Top Jerseys], employing tactics used by the tobacco industry decades ago to mislead the public about the dangers of smoking.
 +
 +
Celebrity cause:?
 +
 +
It s no wonder environmental activists and industry can t bridge the divide,[http://tatsujin.kitaku.net/bbs/light.cgi?page=0%253Ebuy Why Does Your Search Engine Marketing Campaign Fai], he said.
 +
 +
I don t see a middle ground. What we re talking about here is a force of people who are trying desperately to change the world, and a fossil fuel industry that is trying desperately to keep ruling it. I don t know what a middle ground would be, Fox said.
 +
 +
Beyond Gasland Part II, the filmmaker is working on a short documentary about what he calls an epidemic of illness among gas industry workers. Longer term, he said, he intends to move on to broader issues of climate and sustainability.
 +
 +
And then there s that meeting with the president.
 +
 +
I m hoping for a call one of these days, Fox said.</html>

== NORFOLK, Va.- Navy to attempt 1st unmanned carrier landing ==
 +
 +
<html>NORFOLK, Va. The Navy will attempt to land a drone the size of a fighter jet aboard an aircraft carrier for the first time Wednesday, showcasing the military's capability to have a computer program perform one of the most difficult tasks a pilot is asked to do.
 +
If all goes as planned, a successful landing of the X-47B experimental aircraft will mean the Navy can move forward with its plans to develop another unmanned aircraft that will join the fleet alongside traditional airplanes to provide around-the-clock surveillance while also possessing a strike capability. The aircraft's success would pave the way for the U.S. to launch unmanned aircraft without the need to obtain permission from other countries to use their bases.
 +
The X-47B experimental aircraft will take off from Naval Air Station Patuxent River in Maryland before approaching the USS George H.W. Bush, which is operating off the coast of Virginia. The drone will try to land by deploying a tailhook that will catch a wire aboard the ship and bring it to a quick stop, just like normal fighter jets do. The maneuver is known as an arrested landing and has previously only been done by the drone on land at Patuxent River. Landing on a ship that is constantly moving while navigating through turbulent air behind the aircraft carrier is seen as a more difficult maneuver.
 +
"Your grandchildren and great grandchildren and mine will be reading about this historic event in their history books. This is not trivial, nor is it something that came lightly,[http://munilaw.com/2008/12/blog-round-two.html#comments Ultimate Rockets  Rockets season_0]," said Rear Adm. Mat Winter, the Navy's program executive officer for unmanned aviation and strike weapons.
 +
Just like a traditional airplane, if the landing has to be called off for any reason at the last second,[http://www.sishichayuan.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=4324600 John Mauldin- This Country is Different], it can perform a touch-and-go maneuver. It performed nine such maneuvers in May, when it also took off from an aircraft carrier for the first time.
 +
The X-47B will never be put into operational use, but it will help Navy officials develop future carrier-based drones. Those drones could begin operating by 2020, according to Winter. Four companies are expected to compete for a contract to design the future unmanned aircraft, which will be awarded in Fiscal Year 2014.
 +
The two experimental aircrafts that have been built for the first round of testing will be retired and placed in museums at Patuxent River and at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida.
 +
The move to expand the capabilities of the nation's drones comes amid growing criticism of America's use of Predators and Reapers to gather intelligence and carry out lethal missile attacks against terrorists in Iraq,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Dallas-Stars-Men-Customized-White-Third-Jersey-13478/ Dallas Stars Men Customized White Third Jersey], Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen.
 +
Critics in the U.S. and abroad have charged that drone strikes cause widespread civilian deaths and are conducted with inadequate oversight. Still, defense analysts say drones are the future of warfare.
 +
The X-47B is far bigger than the Predator, has three times the range and can be programmed to carry out missions with no human intervention, the Navy said.
 +
While the X-47B isn't a stealth aircraft, it was designed with the low profile of one. That will help in the development of future stealth drones, which would be valuable as the military changes its focus from the Middle East to the Pacific, where a number of countries' air defenses are a lot stronger than Afghanistan's.
 +
The X-47B has a wingspan of about 62 feet and weighs 14,000 pounds,[http://www.jingxingyan.com/lgbbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1394258 Anchorage Chamber graduates 23 business professionals from leadership program], versus nearly 49 feet and about 1,100 pounds for the Predator.
 +
While Predators are typically piloted via remote control by someone in the U.S., the X-47B relies only on computer programs to tell it where to fly unless a human operator needs to step in. The Navy says the aircraft relies on precision GPS navigation, a high-integrity network connection and advanced flight control software to guide itself.
 +
Developed by Northrop Grumman under a 2007 contract at a cost of $1.4 billion, the X-47B is capable of carrying weapons and is designed to be the forerunner for a drone program that will provide around-the-clock intelligence, surveillance and targeting, according to the Navy, which has been giving updates on the project over the past few years.
 +
"It has taken several years of software development, thousands of simulated landings in high fidelity labs and many hours of flight test in the Patuxent River landing pattern to prove this aircraft is up for the challenge," Capt. Jaime Engdahl, program manager for the Navy Unmanned Combat Air System wrote in a blog post. "Today X-47B is ready!"
 +
The X-47B can reach an altitude of more than 40,000 feet and has a range of more than 2,100 nautical miles,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Nike-Falcons-33-Turner-Red-Elite-Jerseys-23315/ Nike Falcons 33 Turner Red Elite Jerseys], versus 675 for the Predator. The Navy plans to show the drone can be refueled in flight, which would give it even greater range.

<html>|  |  A local ?Army veteran is fighting for permission to own a gun after a misdemeanor pot conviction from 1971 stopped? him from buying .22 caliber rifle.
 +
 +
Ron Kelly,[http://park7.wakwak.com/~nymidi/cgi-bin/Y1dicPbUXGVlxwg5TR4vX/light.cgi?res=488 Virtual Assistant Online Training  Online Business], who retired from the Army in 1993,[http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=350246075558&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT Nine Suggestions for Assistance Choosing A Your ow], after a career of firing tanks, machine guns and an array of other weapons,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Youth-Nike-Packers-92-White-Green-Portrait-Fashion-Game-Jersey-19757/ Youth Nike Packers 92 White Green Portrait Fashion Game Jersey], was recently turned away at the Wal-Mart in Tomball after a computerized background check turned up the arrest.
 +
 +
Today s Houston Chronicle has a front page story on Ron Kellly and his fight to own a gun.
 +
 +
Kelly said he d forgotten all about the incident, in which he was arrested over a baggie of pot while in high school, and given one year of probation.
 +
 +
He was a bit embarrassed. Now he s outraged.
 +
 +
He says he should not be denied the very right he spent so many years defending.
 +
 +
More about Kelly s story is presented in an article posted on ,[http://www.anr3d.com/anrong/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=118907 10 die in Soldotna air taxi crash_1], where it is available to subscribers.
 +
 +
The story, by yours truly, made today s front page, as noted in the image posted to the right of this page.
 +
 +
Kelly said he was floored when he couldn t buy the gun. He has since contacted U.S. Rep Michael McCaul and U.S. Sen. John Cornyn hoping for some assistance. He d settle for a waiver.
 +
 +
According to the FBI, which runs the background checks known as the , the law states that a person can be prevented from owing a gun if they are convicted of ?a misdemeanor in which they could spend more than two years behind bars.
 +
 +
So no matter that Kelly was not even sentenced to one night in jail,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Nike-Giants-85-Bennett-Blue-Elite-Jerseys-23323/ Nike Giants 85 Bennett Blue Elite Jerseys], if this offense carried such a possible penalty back in the day, Kelly seems to be out of ?luck.
 +
 +
He said he wanted the gun to keep around the house and figures with it being such a small caliber he could stop an intruder by shooting them once or twice, of if needed, put them down by hitting them several times.
 +
 +
As an infantryman who fired perhaps 100,000 rounds government ammo over his 20 years of service, the odds are he s truly comfortable with a rifle.
 +
 +
As for checking his record back in [http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/North-Carolina-18156/ North Carolina], where he was born and raised, arrested and later joined the service his conviction is so old that officials there can t readily find the record.

== FAIRBANKS, Alaska- Fairbanks hospital gets nod for a top ICU ==
 +
 +
<html>FAIRBANKS, Alaska Ironically, it took an injury to one of its nurses for the intensive care unit at Fairbanks Memorial Hospital to be recognized as one of the top ICUs in the country.
 +
The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses recently conferred a silver-level Beacon Award for Excellence on the ICU at FMH, the first ICU in Alaska to be earn the prestigious award. Only 98 other ICUs in the U.S. were recognized with a Beacon Award in 2012.
 +
If it hadn't been for an injury that relegated ICU nurse Cindy Yocum to light duty, it might not have ever happened.
 +
It was Yocum who, while recovering from a leg injury that relegated her to desk duty for a month in February of last year,[http://yuyu.dental-clinic.com/imageup/imgboard.cgi Search Engine Marketing Tips  How to Manage Your O], took on the task of organizing and writing material that had been collected for the award application.
 +
"My boss (ICU director Brenda Franz) said, 'Why don't you do this while you're off?'" Yocum said, holding up the completed application. "We had a lot of the base work done through committee work, but we had all these pieces and parts that had to be put together."
 +
It was then Yocum realized how monumental of a task she had taken on. Even working on it every day for a month, Yocum wasn't able to finish the application. So Franz told her to take one day per week when she returned to regular duty to work on the application.
 +
Even then, and with the help of nurse managers Dawn Brefczynski and Erika Grant, it took another three months to complete writing the application, which requires an ICU to detail and explain all of its procedures and processes for caring for patients, collaborating with physicians, dealing with families of patients, enhancing professional development, communicating as a staff, fostering a healthy work environment and recognizing good work. All totaled, it took Yocum and the rest of the ICU staff eight months to compile the application.
 +
The unit submitted its application on Sept. 1 of last year and didn't hear it had won the award until earlier this month.
 +
"We're very proud of this," Yocum said of the Beacon Award. "We worked a long time on it and put a lot of money into it. It's been years in the making."
 +
The Beacon Award for Excellence recognizes a unit's caregivers who successfully improve patient outcomes and align practices with the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses' six standards for a healthy work environment. The six standards are skilled communication, true collaboration, effective decision making, appropriate staffing, meaningful recognition and authentic leadership.
 +
For the team of 30 nurses that staffs the intensive care unit at FMH, the award was validation for the work they have been doing for years.
 +
"It's a big deal,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Nike-49ers-21-Gore-Pink-Women-Elite-2013-Super-Bowl-XLVII-Skirts-29542/ Nike 49ers 21 Gore Pink Women Elite 2013 Super Bowl XLVII Skirts]," Franz, the ICU director at FMH, said of the award. "It's recognition of the level of care we pride ourselves on in the ICU and the investment of our staff into our patients.
 +
The award "is just one more way to assure our community that they can get excellent care right here at home," Franz said.
 +
There are three levels of the Beacon award - gold, silver and bronze. The silver level "signifies continuous learning and effective systems to achieve optimal patient care," a press release issued by the AACN announcing the award said.
 +
The ICU at Fairbanks Memorial Hospital earned its award by demonstrating leadership structures and systems; appropriate staffing and staff engagement; effective communication,[http://www.mystyleshop.com/shop/ eBay Ripoffs And Exactly how Traders And Sellers C],[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Heat--6-JAMES-White-Womens-Jerseys-12424/ Heat  6 JAMES White Womens Jerseys], knowledge management, learning and development and best practices; evidence-based practice and processes; and patient outcomes, according to the release.
 +
The award is good for three years, at which time the unit will have to submit another application to maintain its status as a Beacon unit.
 +
The ICU at Fairbanks Memorial Hospital has 13 beds and strives for a maximum nurse-to-patient ratio of one nurse to three patients.
 +
Nancy Spencer is the longest tenured nurse in FMH's intensive care unit, having worked there since 1980.
 +
"I like the people I work with; I like the collaboration we have with the physicians, and I like the support we get from the administration,[http://www.flokib.at/mediawiki/index.php?title=Benutzer:Taylor897#Ultimate_Rockets_Rockets_centers-_A_Hall Ultimate Rockets  Rockets centers- A Hall]," Spencer said. "We have a great crew here."
 +
Bevin Stephens, 35, who has worked in the intensive care unit at FMH for the last six years, considers it an honor.
 +
"To be involved in someone's life in these very critical, pivotal and potentially life or death moments, how powerful is that?" Stephens said. "People ask me all the time, 'How can you do that?' and my answer is how can you not do it?"

<html>SEOUL,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Women-Nike-Packers-12-Rodgers-Green-Portrait-Fashion-Game-Jersey-20065/ Women Nike Packers 12 Rodgers Green Portrait Fashion Game Jersey], South Korea Asiana announced Monday that it will sue a San Francisco TV station that it said damaged the airline's reputation by using bogus and racially offensive names for four pilots on a plane that crashed earlier this month in San Francisco.
 +
An anchor for KTVU-TV read the names on the air Friday and then apologized after a break. The report was accompanied by a graphic with the phony names listed alongside a photo of the burned-out plane that had crashed at San Francisco International Airport on July 6,[http://www.hnlyhqw.com/bbs/boke.asp?oranjijmm03.showtopic.83370.html Shedding -- A Coach's Fine art Associated with Sur], killing three and injuring dozens.
 +
Video of the report has spread widely across the Internet since it was broadcast.
 +
The National Transportation Safety Board has also apologized, saying a summer intern erroneously confirmed the names of the flight crew.
 +
Asiana has decided to sue KTVU-TV to "strongly respond to its racially discriminatory report" that disparaged Asians,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Boston-Bruins-77-Raymond-Bourque-Orange-Classic-Jerseys-18307/ Boston Bruins 77 Raymond Bourque Orange Classic Jerseys], Asiana spokeswoman Lee Hyomin said. She said the airline will likely file suit in U.S. courts.
 +
She said the report seriously damaged Asiana's reputation. Asiana decided not to sue the NTSB because it said it was the TV station report, not the U.S. federal agency that damaged the airline's reputation. Lee did not elaborate.
 +
KTVU-TV did not immediately reply to emails sent by The Associated Press seeking comment.
 +
Neither the station nor the NTSB commented on where the names originated.

== Ultimate Astros  Astros report- Harrell to adjust aft ==
 +
 +
<html>Pregame, Lucas Harrell was shocked, stunned and unwilling to talk.
 +
 +
Postgame, the Astros’ former No. 2 starter — now a long reliever indefinitely demoted to the bullpen — calmly and willingly answered questions about his new, undefined role and uncertain future with a rebuilding team.
 +
 +
“It was just one of those things where you don’t really think it’s the best thing, but it’s just one of those deals where it is what it is,” Harrell said following the Astros’ 5-4 loss to the Rangers on Sunday. “You just kind of have to do it, and you just kind of wear it.”
 +
 +
While Harrell’s move to the bullpen is being made in the hope he can regain his 2012 form, it’s also being done to send a message to the mercurial righthander,[http://you-group.fte.jp/cgi-bin/tetu/light.cgi?res=32595 Turning your Blogging Skills Up a Notch], who has blamed everything from the club’s increased defensive shifts to a lack of offense for his 2013 struggles.
 +
 +
Harrell, 28, was a candidate for the club’s No. 1 spot during spring training and the Astros’ best overall pitcher in 2012. This year, he’s alternately been one of the American League’s best and worst hurlers.
 +
 +
Harrell is 5-9 with a 5.04 ERA. He’s allowed one or no earned runs in 10 of his 19 starts. But he gave up seven earned runs Friday during the Astros’ 10-5 loss to the Rangers and has allowed five earned runs or more in six outings.

“The overall answer to (his return) will come down to him,” Astros manager Bo Porter said. “Sometimes we take a step backward to take three steps forward. And it all depends on how you take the news — (it) will go a long way in how you are able to get through this phase of your career.”
 +
 +
Harrell went 11-11 with a 3.76 ERA in 2012, striking out 140 and walking 78 in 193 innings. This season,[http://www7a.biglobe.ne.jp/~A_Space/cgi-bin/epad2/epad.cgi?res=9897 Social Media – Five Top Tips For the Starters], his strikeout-to-walk ratio has fallen to 1.26 (67 strikeouts,[http://cgi.members.interq.or.jp/rap/takepee/i/epad/epad.cgi?res=676036 Shop with internetroofing], 53 walks), and he’s failed to reach the fifth inning in five starts.
 +
 +
Harrell said he received no instruction about what he’s supposed to work on as a reliever and acknowledged his 10 strong outings this season make it “kind of tough to move a guy like (me) down to the bullpen.”
 +
 +
The fourth-year veteran has long been mentioned in trade rumors. Harrell would likely be a No. 4 or 5 starter on a winning team, though, and everything from his age and unproven track record to his uneven 2013 season limit his value as the July 31 deadline approaches.
 +
 +
Asked if he wants to remain with the Astros, Harrell provided a complicated answer.
 +
 +
“I mean, yeah,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Indianapolis-Colts-Purple-Women-s-Logo-T-Shirt-27228/ Indianapolis Colts Purple Women's Logo T-Shirt],” he said. “It’s one of those things where you’ve got a new regime in here. They want their guys, and it’s coming later in the season; it’s getting closer to September. So they’re going to try their guys and see what happens.”
 +
 +
Rotation tweak before break
 +
 +
The Astros will play five games in seven days before the All-Star break, and Bo Porter has yet to set the club’s rotation for a three-game series at Tampa Bay.
 +
 +
The manager said a new fifth starter could be named, and a short-term move — promoting a pitcher already on the 25-man roster from the bullpen — is an option. However, the Astros could simply use four starters until the break.
 +
 +
Bud Norris is scheduled to start Tuesday at St. Louis, and Jordan Lyles will face the Cardinals on Wednesday. Brad Peacock and Jarred Cosart are among the candidates for promotion from Class AAA Oklahoma City. But the Astros also have starters turned relievers such as Paul Clemens,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Nike-Ravens-21-Webb-black-Game-2013-Super-Bowl-XLVII-Jersey-29097/ Nike Ravens 21 Webb black Game 2013 Super Bowl XLVII Jersey], Brett Oberholtzer and Travis Blackley in their bullpen.
 +
 +
“It all depends. As the next couple days go along, Jeff (Luhnow) and Doug (Brocail) and myself and the staff, we’ll talk about it and try to figure out what’s the best move,” Porter said. “It really is one start before we finish the first half of the season before we head into the All-Star break. And then we basically will go back to a five-man rotation in earnest throughout the course of the regular season.”

== Ultimate Astros  Astros’ Lucas Harrell moved to ==
 +
 +
<html>ARLINGTON Lucas Harrell s unpredictable up-and-down season has sent him to the bullpen.
 +
 +
The Astros No. 2 starter has become a reliever indefinitely, Astros manager Bo Porter said pregame Sunday.
 +
 +
We ll see how it goes, Porter said.
 +
 +
Asked  for general comment, Harrell declined an interview request.
 +
 +
If it s about I don t want to talk about it,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Chicago-Blackhawks-Men-Customized-Red-Jersey-13461/ Chicago Blackhawks Men Customized Red Jersey], Harrell said.
 +
 +
Harrell was a candidate for the club s No. 1 spot during spring training and was the Astros best overall pitcher in 2012. This year, he s alternately been one of the American League s best and worst pitchers.
 +
 +
Harrell, 28, is 5-9 with a 5.04 ERA. He s allowed one earned run or less in 10 of his 19 starts. But he gave up  during the Astros 10-5 loss to the Rangers and has allowed five earned runs or more in six outings.
 +
 +
Harrell s demotion is much more similar to Jordan Lyles being cut from the big-league roster during spring training than Erik Bedard s brief move to the bullpen.
 +
 +
The overall answer to (his return) will come down to him. Sometimes, we take a step backwards to take three steps forward, Porter said. And it all depends on how you take the news (it) will go a long way in how you are able to get through this phase of your career.
 +
 +
Harrell went 11-11 with a 3.76 ERA in 2012, striking out 140 and walking just 78 in 193 innings. This season, his strikeout-to-walk ratio has fallen to 1.26 (67 strikeouts, 53 walks) and he s failed to reach the fifth inning in five starts.
 +
 +
It s a combination of wanting him to get back to the bullpen, get some things figured out,[http://www.ejglobal.com/blog.php?do=showone&type=blog&cid=6&itemid=1084469 Young players with AC Milan New Clothes have poor performance],[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Yankees-12-Boggs-Black-Fashion-Jerseys-13902/ Yankees 12 Boggs Black Fashion Jerseys], Porter said. This guy was one of our better pitchers last year. For whatever reason,[http://wiki.zakimi.com/index.php?title=%E5%88%A9%E7%94%A8%E8%80%85:KevinLee827#Ultimate_Astros__Astros.E2.80.99_Jason_Castro_earns_fir Ultimate Astros  Astros’ Jason Castro earns fir], there s been a lot of inconsistency.
 +
 +
in the Astros clubhouse following his recent loss to the Rangers. While his move to the bullpen is being made in the hope he can regain his 2012 form, it s also being done to send a message to the mercurial pitcher, who s blamed everything from the club s defensive shifts to a lack of offense for his 2013 struggles.
 +
 +
��I��m trying to find time when (my season) was really good,�� Harrell said Friday. ��I haven��t been good all year. It��s been a pretty bad year and I haven��t thrown the ball well at all.��
 +
 +
The righthander has long been mentioned in trade rumors. Harrell would likely be a No. 4 or 5 starter on a winning team, though, and everything from his age and unproven career track record to his uneven 2013 season limit his value as the July 31 deadline approaches.
 +
 +
Following a Sunday series finale against the Rangers, the Astros will play five games in seven days before the All-Star break. Porter has yet to set the club s rotation for a three-game series at Tampa Bay. The manager said a new fifth starter could be named and a short-term move promoting a pitcher already on the 25-man roster from the bullpen is an option. However, the Astros could simply use four starters until the break.

Brad Peacock and Jarred Cosart are among the candidates for promotion from Class AAA Oklahoma City.

It all depends. As the next couple days go along, Jeff (Luhnow) and Doug (Brocail) and myself and the staff, we ll talk about it and try to figure out what s the best move,[http://wikichina.ru/index.php?title=%D0%A3%D1%87%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA:KevinLee049#Cleanup_goes_beyond_trash_on_Bunker_Hill Cleanup goes beyond trash on Bunker Hill], Porter said.

== JOBS Act Interview- David Feldman Discusses Impact of the Ne ==
 +
 +
<html>As discussed in the, The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act is a major step in addressing one of the most critical components of the U.S. economy. If the White House and Capitol Hill―and for that matter Wall Street and Main Street―ever hope to get job growth in the U.S. back to where it needs to, then addressing the things that are holding back small businesses, entrepreneurs, and innovators of new technology as they try to grow is paramount.
 +
The  in that direction. In this interview, we speak with David Feldman, , as he breaks down some of the major provisions of the new law and how it may affect the future of the American economy. Feldman’s experience includes a wide range of corporate securities matters in public and private companies, and is an active voice in the media discussing topics such as financings, mergers and acquisitions, private equity, and more. He has also been closely covering the JOBS Act on his award-winning Reverse .
 +
EQ: The JOBS Act was positioned as a way to help the economy recover and to ultimately add more jobs for Americans. Most of the provisions involve how small companies can access capital. How does that translate and impact everyday Americans?
 +
Feldman: The theory is that small business is the engine of our economy. It produces 75 percent to 80 percent of all jobs, especially new jobs, and those jobs are created through the growth of the business or the business raising capital. So these changes were meant primarily to make it a little easier for smaller companies to raise capital, and if they can raise capital, they can then deploy that to new plans and new opportunities, which then leads to new employment.
 +
EQ: There has been a concerted effort in the industry to create more dialogue and awareness regarding issues and changes from the JOBS Act. What are some of the higher level points to the new laws that you think will be impactful?
 +
Feldman: Any time the pendulum swings more towards improving access to capital rather than reducing it, that’s positive news to me, especially when it comes to small businesses. Also, I think the actual on-ramp provisions provide a very helpful reduction in hassle and costs in doing an . The removal of the ban on general solicitation in private offerings is a major plus for people looking for a variety of different ways to get interest in their offering. Crowdfunding is going to be, I think, an exciting way for startups and very early stage companies to finally have a way to do a more broad-based offering to raise money for themselves.
 +
There are other changes in the act such as increasing the number of shareholders that you would meet before being forced to go public. One of the challenges that growing companies faced was that as they gave stock to employees, investors and others, they were ultimately forced to go public because they were approaching the 500 shareholder limit. The fact that the limit has now increased to 2000 allows other companies to choose to stay private longer. That’s also a very positive benefit.
 +
Finally, little talked about is the change to Regulation A that is proposed in the bill. We’re waiting for the SEC’s proposals on that. Here you can do a simplified mini-IPO, not in terms of dollars―though now limited to $50 million―but essentially with a question-and-answer type of form that is reviewed by the SEC. You could complete a  and issue people shares that they can trade. Congress has provided what appears to be a path not only for the amount of money they can raise to go up from $5 million to $50 million, but even more importantly, an ability for offerings to take place without state review of those offerings.
 +
Many people stayed away from Reg A as an alternative to an IPO because the state reviews of these offerings were extremely burdensome, time consuming, and difficult. The SEC has said if you sell only to “qualified purchasers”, which is a term that the SEC itself will have to define, then you can be pre-empted from that state review, which can be very significant for smaller companies that don’t otherwise get the benefit of that pre-emption that you get on the national securities exchanges.
 +
EQ: The JOBS Act was signed into law in April, but many of the main points are still in the process of regulatory discussions. Have there been any significant changes or developments to the provisions?
 +
Feldman: Much of the structure of the IPO on-ramp that they’ve talked about is now in place and not requiring further rule making. In particular, a company doing an IPO for example can now confidentially file their IPO registration, go through rounds of comments at the SEC without the public knowing about it,[http://www13.plala.or.jp/gakuki3/cgi_bin/aska/aska.cgi SEO Company Australia  Characteristics of a Excell], and they’re only required to notify the public about these filings 21 days before their first road shows. This gives companies that are uncertain about whether or not they definitely want to go public the opportunity to get through the process at the SEC before making that final decision that alerts their competitors and others that they’re considering this. So this is a positive development.
 +
In addition, the new rules about easing of the restrictions on analysts and research is also already in place. So that in many cases now, an analyst can actually appear at a road show and meet with investors and have an investment banker make those arrangements, which was not previously permitted. In addition, research can also be released immediately prior and immediately after the public offering, which was not allowed before the JOBS Act. Finally, the provisions of the law that ease restrictions on what are called “emerging growth companies” are also in place. Companies going public now with under $1 billion in revenues can release two years of audited  instead of three. These companies are also exempted from hiring an outside auditor to attest to the adequacy of their  controls. These additional rules have made it more attractive to consider going public, and in particular to a public offering.
 +
EQ: Crowdfunding seemed to be the provision that most people gravitated toward. The financing technique has garnered a lot of buzz, but mainly because of its social nature. Is there a lot of demand from small and emerging growth companies to tap into this type of funding in the future?
 +
Feldman: I think the amount of demand will depend in part of what the rules look like that the SEC chooses to write. The new crowdfunding law already has some restrictive elements to it that may make some to consider if it is worth the hassle to go through it. In particular, there’s a limit of $1 million that you can raise in a crowdfunding transaction, and if you raise anywhere above $500,000, you have to go through a full audit of your financial statements. That alone may make some people to choose not to participate. That being said,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Nike-Saints-Blank-Black-Elite-Jerseys-20643/ Nike Saints Blank Black Elite Jerseys], for the early stage and startup companies, it can be a very interesting alternative to not have to worry about finding only wealthy and sophisticated investors, but being able to go to customers and friends and neighbors and ask if they would like to put a few hundred or a few thousand dollars into your company without worrying about running afoul of the SEC restrictions on going to lots of people in a securities offering.
 +
EQ: Another significant impact that the JOBS Act will have is expediting the process for smaller companies to go public as well as reducing costs associated with regulatory filings. While large IPOs have dominated the market, the number of smaller IPOs has dried up over the years. Why is addressing this issue vital to the public markets and the economy?
 +
Feldman: It may not lead to a sudden, dramatic surge in IPOs going from the low hundreds back to the 500-a-year level that they saw in the late ’90s. Since that time we’ve also gone from 90% of IPOs raising less than $50 million to around 10% of IPOs raising less than that amount. But anything that limits or reduces restrictions on companies is a positive thing. So the fact that you don’t have to go back a third year and do an audit, and the fact that you can decide to go through confidential filing with the SEC, it creates a big cost savings that applies when you don’t have to hire an outside auditor to review your financial controls. These are all positive things. I don’t know if they alone would be the difference between a company choosing to go public or not, but in the end, any company considering this needs to answer two simple questions. Can I benefit from being publicly held? And can I handle the costs of doing so? If the answer to both questions is yes, then it is something you should seriously consider.
 +
EQ: The issue of the SEC lifting the ban on general solicitation on Reg D offerings is another major ongoing discussion. While there’s a definite need to help emerging growth companies and small businesses access the capital markets, investors also need to be protected from risks of potential financial fraud. How do you strike that balance?
 +
Feldman: I think the way Congress and the SEC is going about striking the balance on this issue is an excellent one. There previously was a ban on advertising and general solicitation in certain types of Reg D offerings, and that mattered whether you were going to accredited investors or not. In this electronic age where you would want to have the ability to promote something on the internet or send a huge email blast or something like that,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Washington-Redskins-28-GREEN-red-throwback-Jerseys-14996/ Washington Redskins 28 GREEN red throwback Jerseys], it didn’t seem to make sense that that this ban on general solicitation should apply for everyone regardless for who the investors are. Sure enough,[http://sea.scatv.ne.jp/~bodysaron/postmail/postmail.cgi Ways To Improve Response Using The Site Advertisin], in what I consider to be potentially the biggest sleeper provision of the JOBS Act, they’re now saying that as long as you limit your investors to people who fit the definition of being accredited, then we don’t mind that you go ahead and do general solicitation because the SEC’s view is that they’re not really there to protect wealthy individuals and that those people have the ability to protect themselves.
 +
EQ: How has the explosion of social media, and the internet in general, played a role in the way the market and regulators view solicitation?
 +
Feldman: What it’s going to impact on is how do you confirm that somebody’s actually accredited, and the proposed rule the SEC came out with about a month ago tried to address that by saying we’re not going to have a specific set of ways that you can determine if somebody’s accredited. We’ll give you some suggestions on things that will look good in determining whether somebody’s accredited, but in the end, each company will have to determine for itself whether they’ve taken reasonable steps to confirm accredited status. In the past, we’ve kind of relied on a statement from individuals that they’re accredited as well as some kind of pre-existing relationship either with the company or their placement agent indicating that they are wealthy. Now, if somebody responds to your advertising offering, you won’t have a pre-existing relationship with them. So it’s not yet clear what will be sufficient for a company to be comfortable that an investor is accredited.
 +
The SEC did make clear in their proposal that it is not going to be enough to simply have somebody to sign a check-the-box statement that says how they’re accredited without additional information that the company has to verify that they are accredited. This has caused some in the bar to say that it is a great concern and we need to have greater clarity as to what more will be sufficient. I think different people are going to develop different thoughts and techniques on that, and people will be submitting comments to the SEC on these proposals. It’ll be interesting to see how the final rules come out, although some are saying that may not happen until next year.
 +
EQ: You are one of the key panelists on an upcoming webcast to discuss topics surrounding the JOBS Act. Can you discuss some of the other participants that you will be engaging discussions with?
 +
Feldman: In addition to myself, we have Neal Wolkoff, who just joined Richardson Patel as Of Counsel. He is the former chairman of the AMEX, and is obviously a very prominent fellow. He’s very well-versed in a lot of these issues,[http://web.kaya.or.jp/cgi-bin/bbs/user05/bbs.cgi?page=0%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520%2520Result:%2520chosen%2520nickname%2520%25 Get More Traffic with Top Link Building Service], and very plugged into the regulatory environment. We know he will bring a very interesting perspective having been on the other side working with companies that are listed on national exchanges.
 +
Congressman David Schweikert of Arizona has been one of the main leading proponents and drivers of the JOBS Act. I was privileged to work with his staff on aspects of the bill. I saw how determined and driven they were. This took a long time. It started with one small bill that was one aspect of it, and it turned into seven or eight bills that had different pieces of the puzzle. They finally realized the benefit of putting it all together in one bill. Amazingly it sailed through Congress with strong bipartisan support and immediately signed into law by the President. Congressman Schweikert was really a phenomenal leader for someone who was new to Congress in really making this bill go through.
 +
David Weild is another prominent gentleman that will be participating. He has spoken at SEC conferences and has testified in Congress. He’s a very outspoken guy talking about some ways of bringing back a stronger IPO market. His focus is on essentially increasing the minimum tick sizes and spreads between the bid and ask as a way to encourage more players to come back into the fold of the small cap market. This is something a lot of people are talking about now. The SEC, at least initially, has recommended against doing that but they left the door open for further study, which is good. David is a tremendous speaker and I am excited to be on another panel with him.
 +
I’m very excited about the panel. I think it’s very rare to get these types of brains together at one place and for me to be a part of it is exciting. I really think it’s important for the public and broader Wall Street to have a really strong understanding of what opportunities lie from the passage of this bill.

== California prison officials say 30,000 inmates refuse meals ==
 +
 +
<html>Despite the widespread work stoppages and meal refusals,[http://nona.sakura.ne.jp/i/bbs/light.cgi?res=34689 Is SEO Worth for Your Online Business], Thornton said state prisons operated as usual through the day. "Everything has been running smoothly," she said. "It was normal. There were no incidents."
 +
The protest, announced for months, is organized by a small group of inmates held in segregation at Pelican Bay State Prison near the Oregon border. Their list of demands, reiterated Monday, center on state policies that allow inmates to be held in isolation indefinitely, in some cases for decades,[http://www.myip.cn/cgimage.lv Discover the Changing Nature of SEO], for ties to prison gangs.
 +
Though prison officials contend that the gang ties are validated, the state last year began releasing inmates from segregation against whom there was no evidence of gang-related behavior. Nearly half of those reviewed have been returned to the general prison population.
 +
The protest involves the same issues and many of the same inmates who led the protests in 2011. At the height of those hunger strikes, more than 11,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Nike-Eagles-9-Foles-Black-Elite-Jerseys-20571/ Nike Eagles 9 Foles Black Elite Jerseys],600 inmates refused meals.

== V.I.'s Lovett wins gold in Russia ==
 +
 +
<html>The V.I.'s Eddie Lovett has had a stellar 2013 in track and field. He's won a national championship with the University of Florida and been named an All-American. Now he adds another impressive accomplishment to the list.
 +
On Thursday, Lovett won the men's 110-meter hurdles gold medal in 13.43 seconds at the 27th World University Games in Kazan,[http://www2.toua-u.ac.jp/cgi-bin/bbs/vbbbs.cgi?res=12170 Where To Get Stylish As Well As Comfy Outfits], Russia. His time was mere hundredths of seconds from the second- and third-place finishers,[http://www2.toua-u.ac.jp/cgi-bin/bbs/vbbbs.cgi?res=11942 While SEO blogs will survive for at least a while], Konstanten Shabamov (13.46) and Sergei Shubenkov (13.47), both of Russia and running on their home soil.
 +
The win gives the USVI track team its first medal of this year's competition. The win was even more impressive as Shabamov edged Lovett in their qualifying heat earlier in the day, 13.51 to 13.53.
 +
Lovett, whose father is from St. Croix, is a five-time NCAA All-American and a two-time Southeastern Conference 60-meter hurdles champion. He was also first team All-SEC Indoors, second team All-SEC outdoors, and in previous years, he was the SEC Men's Indoor Freshman Track and Field Runner of the Year,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Raiders-55-McClain-white-silver-number-Jerseys-3164/ Raiders 55 McClain white silver number Jerseys], and 2011 first team All-SEC for both indoors and outdoors.
 +
He also ranks fourth all-time in the NCAA 60-meter hurdles.
 +
While Lovett had individual success, he and the rest of the USVI men's 400-meter relay team of Leon Hunt,[http://www.mobileklub.com/cgi-bin/app.cgi?m=Web&c=RTone&cat=Artist-Misha_Omar_/_Pontianak_Harum_Sundal&AgtID=2401&alphabet=All What Is On Page Optimisation], David Walters and Collister Fahie failed to advance from their opening heat, coming one spot shy of qualifying for the next round. The team finished in 40.48 seconds for third in the heat behind Poland (39.71) and China (39.86). That time also placed them ninth of the 17 countries in the event; the top eight teams (Poland, China, Canada, South Africa, Ukraine,[http://www.jerseys-hearts.com/Steelers-86-Ward-black-women-Jerseys-5833/ Steelers 86 Ward black women Jerseys], Thailand, Japan and Singapore) moved on to the final.
 +
Earlier in the day, Fahie and Hunt both competed in the men's long jump qualifying round. Hunt had a leap of 7.41 meters, placing him eighth in Group A of the event. Fahie followed in Group B, with a leap of 7.48 meters being the best of his three attempts. He also finished eighth in his group. However, only the top six competitors in each group advanced to the next round.</html>
