Obama FCC Expected to Abandon Net Neutrality, Universal Internet
h3rm35
enemy of exceptionalism
On Sunday, the Washington Post reported that the Federal Communications Commission is expected to abandon its pledges to protect Net Neutrality and to ensure universal, affordable broadband. The story cites anonymous insiders confirming that FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is "leaning toward" siding with the most powerful phone and cable lobbyists on a crucial decision: whether the FCC will have any authority to protect an open Internet and make it available to all.
It is a testament to the phone and cable industry's overwhelming influence that they seem to have convinced the nation's communications agency to swear off authority to protect Americans' right to open communications. But it is stunning that Genachowski would even contemplate allowing it to stand, given President Obama's repeated pledge to ensure fast, affordable, universal Internet broadband for every American.
So what's going on here?
In early April, a a federal appeals court ruled that, based on decisions by the Bush-era FCC, the agency lacks the authority to regulate broadband providers. In so doing, the court effectively handed control of the Internet to companies like Comcast, AT&T and Verizon -- allowing them to slow down or block any website, any blog post, any tweet, any outreach by a congressional campaign. The FCC no longer has the power to stop them.
Fortunately, the FCC does have the power to easily fix the problem by "reclassifying" broadband under the law. All it would take is a vote by its five commissioners -- and Genachowski already has the votes. But so far, he has done nothing, while proponents of Net Neutrality (the principle that prevents providers from indiscriminately blocking or slowing Internet content) have been watching and waiting with bated breath.
If Genachowski gives up on restoring FCC authority, you can be sure he will claim that Internet deployment remains the signature issue of his FCC and that he can still accomplish the goals outlined in the FCC's recently released National Broadband Plan.
But unless the FCC puts broadband under what's called "Title II" of the Telecommunications Act, nearly every broadband-related decision the agency makes from here forward will be aggressively challenged in court, and the FCC will likely lose. The phone and cable companies know this, which is why they're going all out to keep the FCC from fixing the problem.
The goals of the much-feted National Broadband Plan are to ensure all Americans can get high-speed access to the open Internet -- not a closed version of the Internet that looks more like cable TV, where phone and cable companies decide what moves fast or not at all.
Chairman Genachowski could stand up for the American people, and against one of the biggest lobbying juggernauts in Washington, but it will take courage. If he fails to stand with the public, it could mean the end of the Internet as we know it.
Before it's too late, we need to make sure the FCC knows the American people are watching, and we will not sit quietly as the largest companies destroy the open, democratic Internet.
RE: Obama FCC Expected to Abandon Net Neutrality, Universal Internet
i think we have less hope in these regulation authorities than just allowing the isps to battle it out, the free'est one wins.

This is another example of 'elite' faction warfare. The hope for the people to have anything resembling a free internet is for them (us) to create an alternative or create some competition through hard work, investment and innovation. The deck is stacked but we are the many. Unfortunately the corporate / government dependency in people has deep roots just a matter of how much people are willing to put up with before acting on a productive intelligent unified alternative to 'elite' rule.
More thoughts and discussion on the government protecting us from the evil corporations.

yup...
anyway, there's been an update to this particular series of events:
Quote: FCC To Protect Net Neutrality – Huge Win For Consumers
By: David Dayen Wednesday May 5, 2010 2:19 pm
Let's wait to see if this is true, but the Wall Street Journal says that the FCC will move to reclassify broadband services to give them a greater ability to regulate in that space, protecting their intentions to reinforce net neutrality and transform broadband access for the 21st century:
Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski has decided to reregulate Internet lines to protect net neutrality, siding with consumer groups and Internet companies worried that Internet providers have too much power.
On Wednesday, Mr. Genachowski's staff began briefing the FCC's commissioners on how they will propose to regulate Internet lines under rules that were written for traditional phone networks. Some of those rules won't be applied to Internet networks, FCC officials say, but others will be used to enforce net neutrality, or regulations that require Internet providers to treat traffic equally and not slow or block websites.
For those who haven't been following, under the Bush Administration the FCC classified broadband under Title 1 of the Communications Act, which gave them scant and vulnerable authority to regulate against the telecoms. A recent federal court ruling, saying that the FCC couldn't stop Comcast from blocking certain Internet traffic, showed the pitfalls of this approach. Genachowski has been wavering on reclassifying broadband under Title 2, which would give them much more authority by terming the Internet a "common carrier service." But the article states that he made the decision to go forward with that reclassification, for the most part.
Today, Henry Waxman and Jay Rockefeller, the Chairman of the Commerce Committees in the House and Senate, wrote Genachowski asking that he "consider all viable options," including reclassification, to ensure Internet freedom and allow the FCC to move forward with a national broadband plan.
A decision on the classification guidelines is expected to be made public shortly.

Bare Ranch owner Lani Estill, pictured with her daughter Anna, raises cattle and sheep on more than 40,000 acres in northern California. Photo/Paige Green.
Compost helps build healthier pastures that can sequester more carbon. Photo/Paige Green.
Guided by Estill's goals and developed using the NRCS' conservation planning process, the science-based Carbon Farm Plan incorporates data from USDA measurement tools like COMET-Planner and COMET-Farm. These whole farm and ranch tools serve as a greenhouse gas and carbon sequestration accounting system for the operation.
The Bare Ranch Carbon Farm Plan prioritizes practices that sequester carbon, add perennial biomass, and grow healthy forage. It assesses the ranch's ecology and soils, and then recommends management practices to improve soil health and sequester more carbon in the soil and perennial biomass. While conservation practices that build the land's carbon reserves can help mitigate climate change, they also help increase resilience to changing climate conditions, enhance overall productivity, and improve the water-holding capacity of the ranch's soil.
As the public becomes increasingly aware of the environmental impacts of their food and other consumer products, many ag producers and manufacturers are turning natural resource conservation practices into a competitive business advantage. The Bare Ranch Carbon Farm Plan has helped the owners produce a "climate beneficial" wool beanie in partnership with The North Face clothing retailer. The hat, and its conservation story, tap into a growing consumer demand for products that benefit the environment. By measuring the impact of their conservation practices, Bare Ranch has provided the transparency and quantified conservation value of their wool production that companies like The North Face—and consumers—are seeking.
The Bare Ranch Carbon Farm Plan has helped the owners produce a "climate beneficial" wool beanie in partnership with a national clothing retailer. Photo/Paige Green.
Thanks to NRCS quantification tools and the science-based Carbon Farm Plan, Bare Ranch can determine how much carbon it sequesters annually. And when consumers purchase wool products made from Bare Ranch fibers, they are directly supporting the conservation mission shared by Estill and NRCS.
You can learn more about the Bare Ranch story by listening to this Capital Public Radio story.
A "tip of the hat" to all of those at Bare Ranch, NRCS, and everyone on the conservation team that partnered to provide such an inspiring example for the rest of the world!
You may want to check out Mountain Meadow Wool, 22 Plains Drive in Buffalo WY. They are a wool yarn manufacturer. They work with local sheep ranchers to take in the raw wool and then turn it into wool yarn which is sold locally, nationally and internationally. The ranchers have a direct say in how their product is marketed.
It is great to see that there are so many benefits from implementing conservation practices.
I see a lot of rain gun action in the background of the photo, but no mention of irrigation in the text! Rain guns are not all that sustainable. Water losses through evaporation; energy to drive pumps; depletion of underground or river reserves of water... there are quite a few no-noes. Irrigation through dribble bars, perforated pipes and others is preferable. But getting the pasture to find it's own moisture with thicker and higher sward cover; not allowing sunlight to strike the soil surface; growing deep rooting plants that thrive in try conditions. These and other actions should reduce the need for irrigation. Especially when there is 40,000 acres to play with! I farm 150!
We have sheep and goats for many years. How can manure be re used?
You can kiss the bighorn sheep that share these grazing allotments goodbye. Pasturella hymolitica from the domestic sheep WILL result in a 90%-plus die-off in those wild herds...as the USDA knows full well.

Max Scheler, né à Munich le  et mort à Francfort-sur-le-Main le , est un philosophe et sociologue allemand.

Biographie

Famille
Sa mère est une juive orthodoxe, qui pousse son père à  se convertir au judaïsme. Aussi l'éducation catholique prodiguée au Ludwigsgymnasium de Munich met-elle le jeune Scheler au contact d'antagonismes confessionnels et philosophiques, notamment par l'émergence des idées marxistes et évolutionnistes.

Parcours universitaire
Max Scheler étudie deux ans la médecine à Munich et Berlin (1894-95), mais les conférences de Theodor Lipps, Wilhelm Dilthey et Georg Simmel le décident à s'inscrire en faculté de philosophie : il soutient sa thèse de doctorat en 1897 sous la direction de Rudolf Eucken (1846–1926), et sa thèse d'habilitation (« La méthode transcendantale et la méthode psychologique ») à l'université d'Iéna en 1899. Il est professeur à l'université de Iéna de 1900 à 1906 puis à Munich de 1907 à 1910. Ses premières œuvres sont marquées par l'influence de Nietzsche et de sa philosophie des valeurs et des intuitions (en particulier le concept de ressentiment développé dans la Généalogie de la morale).

En 1902, il rencontre Edmund Husserl dont la pensée (la phénoménologie) le marquera durablement bien qu'il n'ait jamais été son étudiant. En 1910-1911, il donne un cours à la société philosophique de Göttingen. De 1919 à sa mort, il enseigne la philosophie et la sociologie à l'université de Cologne.

Travaux et postérité
Il est considéré de son temps comme l'un des chefs de file de la phénoménologie (avec Nicolai Hartmann, notamment) à laquelle il donne toutefois quelques accents mystiques. Avant sa rupture avec l'Église, il contribue largement au renouvellement de la tradition catholique — Karol Wojtyla, le futur pape Jean-Paul II, qui comptait parmi ses admirateurs, lui consacre sa thèse de 1953. Mais l'entreprise principale de Scheler est la fondation d'une discipline nouvelle, l'anthropologie philosophique, et sa contribution au développement de la sociologie de la connaissance (Wissensoziologie).

Sa mort subite par apoplexie l'empêche de publier plus que les prémices de ce projet (La Situation de l'homme dans le monde publié l'année de son décès). Ses élèves Helmuth Plessner et Arnold Gehlen développent cette approche de l'humain dont ils revendiquèrent ensuite la paternité.

Les réflexions sociologiques de Scheler marquent un tournant audacieux dans l'histoire de la sociologie en tentant un rapprochement entre la démarche des sciences humaines et la phénoménologie (dont le primat subjectiviste et l'importance accordée à la conscience ne vont pas de soi dans le cadre souvent objectiviste de la sociologie).

Cette nouvelle perspective aura un écho, notamment, dans les travaux des sociologues Alfred Schütz, Peter Berger et Thomas Luckmann (La Construction sociale de la réalité).

Six Classic Ann Arbor Bars and Restaurants Everyone Should Try
by Hannah Lowe Jan 28, 2015, 5:27pm EST
Share All sharing options for: Six Classic Ann Arbor Bars and Restaurants Everyone Should Try
Ann Arbor certainly has its share of trendy eateries, but this week, Eater is serving up six historic establishments in honor of Classics Week. Surely someone's been left out (as this is not reputed to be a list of the oldest of the old), so feel free to add some other Ann Arbor classics in the comments.
If you buy something or book a reservation from an Eater link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics policy.
Alley Bar
Originally opened as Charles Binder's Saloon in 1880, the site of the Alley Bar has continuously been operated as such since then. Slid into a narrow storefront on Liberty Street downtown, Alley Bar prides itself on low-key laid-back style where one can drink canned beer and watch the games. They also have separate lists for scotch and whiskey, but don't expect of a glass of wine. Photo
112 W Liberty St, Ann Arbor, MI 48104
Old Town Tavern
Known as The Bismark when it opened in 1898, Old Town can be found just a few doors down from Alley Bar. It's also operated as a bar or saloon since its founding, and as Old Town Tavern for over forty years. Self-described as the "last of the townie bars" they used to open at 6 a.m. to serve third shift workers. Now you'll have to wait until 11:30am on weekdays and 4 p.m. on weekends. Photo
Weber's Restaurant
Weber's has been serving up classic steakhouse fare since 1937, although not in its current location on Jackson Road until 1962. The prime rib—still a menu staple—became the house specialty in 1950. Founder, Herman Weber, passed away last year after his 100th birthday, but leaves a family-owned legacy with Weber's Restaurant and the adjoining hotel. Photo
3050 Jackson Ave, Ann Arbor, MI 48103
Knight's Steakhouse
Founded as a meat market in 1952, the Knight family opened their first restaurant in 1984. With two more locations downtown and in Jackson, Michigan, Knight's hasn't forgotten its beginnings. The meat market is still open in its original location, serving a tremendous selection of cuts of beef, pork, lamb, veal, and poultry. There is also an on-site deli and bakery where one can grab a muffin, soup or sandwich. Photo
2324 Dexter Ave, Ann Arbor, MI 48103
Krazy Jim's Blimpy Burger
Featured on such shows as Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives and Man v. Food, as well as populating lists of the country's best hamburgers, Blimpy Burger opened in 1953. Known for lines out the door, the original location was shuttered in 2013 when University of Michigan bought the land and building on which the business ran.

While being interviewed by Chuck Garfien on Comcast Chicago (hat tip to MetsBlog), J.J. Putz admitted that he had bone spur in his elbow long before his trade from the Mariners to the Mets, the Mets were aware of it, and the Mets didn't put him through a physical prior to making the deal official.
There are so many things wrong with this I don't know where to start. Why would the Mets knowingly acquire damaged goods, especially knowing the high salary that came with it? Why would they give up so much talent in return?
The answer is simple: season ticket sales. The Mets latched on to the nonsense propogated by the media that the reason they missed the 2008 postseason was due to a terrible cast of characters in the bullpen (rather than the mismanagement of the bullpen, the lack of an extra slugger, piss-poor fundamentals, below-average defense, occasional lackadaisacal effort, or the fact the rotation was absent of a high-quality starter behind Johan Santana). It was easy to blame all the team's woes — and in particular their second consecutive late-season collapse — on one scapegoat, the bullpen.
Once everyone bought in to the idea that "the Mets bullpen needs a makeover", the signing of Francisco Rodriguez combined with the trade for Putz was a seemingly simple solution that would propel the Mets back into the postseason. Therefore, the story the Mets sold to prospective season-ticket buyers was: "we're bringing back the same team, adding two elite relievers, so we're a lock to make the playoffs — hurry and buy a ticket package lest you get shut out from the glory and celebration in October".
It didn't matter that Putz was damaged, and could possibly miss the bulk of the season. As long as the injury was kept secret, people would believe the Mets would have a fantastic bullpen — perhaps the best in all MLB — and therefore would easily trot to "meaningful games in October".
Why else would a team send seven players to two different teams for a $7M player? Why else would they completely ignore a documented history of chronic elbow problems?
Further, why would a team allow a high-salaried pitcher with a known injury compete in the World Baseball Classic? Perhaps because if they didn't, people would wonder why — and the injury could be revealed. Or, maybe the plan was to keep fingers crossed in hopes that Putz could stay healthy enough in short spurts to display his 95 MPH a few times — in turn getting Mets fans jazzed up to buy ticket packages in March.
This time, it's not a conspiracy theory. This time, the Mets really did know something, and kept it from the public, for the sole purpose of ticket sales.
Which makes one wonder about Jason Bay and the various concerns that caused the Red Sox to pull a 4-year contract off the table. Suddenly, we can't be so sure to believe Bay's assertion that he's completely healthy. After hearing this news from Putz, we need to re-examine the detailed, bizarre story written by Rob Bradford of WEEI regarding what happened with Jason Bay and the Red Sox. Perhaps the Red Sox cautious approach was valid. Maybe there is a good reason that the Mets were the only other publicly known bidders for Bay's services.
Of course, it doesn't matter whether Jason Bay has potential injury issues that may creep up as soon as mid-season. All that matters is you phone in your ticket order — NOW. Leave the worrying about what happens after Opening Day to the Mets.
The Red Sox made official the signing of third baseman Adrian Beltre, and at the same time announced the trade of Casey Kotchman for Bill Hall. Hall can play every outfield and infield position, but has played more MLB games at the hot corner than anywhere else.
These announcements virtually guarantee that incumbent 3B Mike Lowell will be traded as soon as possible.
So Jerry Crasnick of ESPN claims he heard about the Mets and Red Sox discussing a swap of Luis Castillo and Mike Lowell.
Because it doesn't make much sense from any angle whatsoever.
First of all, the Red Sox are set at second base with Dustin Pedroia. And they didn't sign Marco Scutaro to a $12.5M deal to be a backup to Pedroia at shortstop. And Luis Castillo is not going to push David Ortiz out of the DH spot, no matter how bad Ortiz hits.
The only thing that might make sense is the Red Sox quickly flipping Castillo to a third team for someone who better fits into their plan. A possibility, for sure.
As for the Mets going after Lowell … though I did mention Mike Lowell in a frightening hypothetical trade of David Wright to Boston, and do believe he could be worthwhile as a platoon partner / backup plan to Dan Murphy at 1B, I don't see the Mets as being that creative and bold. The truth is, Lowell might be able to handle SECOND BASE adequately, and provide enough punch to counteract defensive deficiencies — but again, the Mets are neither that bold nor that creative.
Could it be a four-team deal with players and bad contracts flying all over the place?
Anything is possible. But in this case, I'm guessing it's pure bunk.
David Wright to Red Sox?
With the Red Sox still looking for a third baseman to replace Mike Lowell, and the Mets in need of pitching (where the Bosox have depth), is there a possibility that Wright could be moved to Boston?
Jason Bay: No News is Good News?
A blizzard has come and gone, and still Jason keeps the Mets at Bay (bad, I know, but couldn't resist).
But for Jason Bay, time is running out — quickly. He managed to alienate the team he should be signing with, the Red Sox, and they have moved on by signing Mike Cameron. Four more years in Fenway Park would've been ideal for padding his stats for a rare second free agency jackpot at age 35 — because he IS going to be worth $16M+ when he's 35, isn't he?
Marco Scutaro Off the Table?
According to Venezuelan news source Lider, the Red Sox have signed Marco Scutaro. Terms are unknown at this time, and the deal is yet to be official.
So scratch him off the list of available second basemen / utility infielders, and stop voting for him when you Rate the Mets Free Agent Targets.
The latest on Matt Holliday is that the Yankees aren't interested (per Buster Olney), the Angels aren't either, and the Red Sox and Jason Bay appear to be on the same wavelength. That said, the Mets may have only the Cardinals to bid against when the Holliday auction begins — right?
Can Craig Hansen Get the Monkey Off His Back?
Craig Hansen was chosen with the 26th overall pick of the June 2005 draft by Boston Red Sox, and made his MLB debut less than three months later, smack in the middle of a heated pennant race. Hansen was not the best prospect in the draft, but was considered by many to be among the most polished — so it was not a surprise that he was in the Fenway Park bullpen so quickly. The 6'6″ St. John's closer touched 98 MPH on the radar gun, had the best slider coming out of the draft, and was judged as having the appropriate temperament for short relief work. He zipped through 12 innings split between the Gulf Coast League and AA before laying an egg in Boston. Though he was a disappointment in his first four games as a big leaguer, most predicted future success as an MLB closer.
