New Featurette for Zac Efron's 'Charlie St. Cloud' Comes Out
Universal Pictures has teased Zac Efron's fans with a new featurette from "Charlie St. Cloud". Debuted by Hulu, the video features the lead actor, who provides commentaries about the film and explains the storyline from his point of view, as well as some never-before-seen footage.
Efron explains he is excited to be involved in the upcoming movie because it's "different", claiming "It's a lot more adventurous and real". He later states the film has complete elements as it contains both romantic and supernatural things.
In the film, Efron plays accomplished sailor Charlie St. Cloud who has a bright future which is cut short when a tragedy that costs him his brother's life strikes and takes his dreams with it. As he meets high-school classmate Tess again and falls in love with her, Charlie is torn between honoring a promise he made four years earlier and moving forward with newfound love.
Amanda Crew stars opposite Efron as his on-screen lover, while Charlie Tahan and Kim Basinger play his little brother Sam and his mother Claire respectively. Burr Steers serves behind the lens for this drama, which is set for July 30 release in the U.S.

How far do you agree with the view that the wall street crash was responsible for the great depression of the early 1930s in america the wall street crash occurred in 1929 and is regarded as being the most devastating stock market crash to have ever occurred in the history of the united states. The wall street crash of 1929, also known as the stock market crash of 1929 or the great crash, is the stock market crash that occurred in late october, 1929 it started on october 24 (black thursday) and continued through october 29, 1929 (black tuesday), when share prices on the new york stock exchange collapsed. The 1929 stock market crash in early 1928 the dow jones average went from a low of 191 early in the year, to a high of 300 in december of 1928 and peaked at 381 in september of 1929.

Summary of the causes of the wall street crash summary and definition: the wall street stock market crashed on tuesday october 29, 1929 (black tuesday) due to the panic-selling of massive amounts of stocks and shares there were many reasons and causes of the 1929 wall street crash including the feeling of optimism and overconfidence during the roaring twenties and the economic boom in the era. The wall street crash of 1929, the largest percentage increases of the dow jones occurred during the early and mid-1930s in late 1937, there was a sharp dip in the stock market, but prices held well above the 1932 lows the great depression: america in the 1930s, 22–55 new york: little, brown & company, 1993.

OVER THE ’PHONE
Mrs. Forbes, Mr. Evringham’s housekeeper, answered the telephone one afternoon. She was just starting to climb to the second story and did not wish to be hindered, so her “hello” had a somewhat impatient brevity.
“Oh,” with a total change of voice and face, “is that you, Mr. Evringham?”
“Please send Jewel to the ’phone.”
She laid down the receiver, and moving to the foot of the stairs called loudly, “Jewel!”
“Drat the little lamb!” groaned the housekeeper, “If I was only sure she was up there; I’ve got to go up anyway. Jewel!” louder.
“Ye—es!” came faintly from above, then a door opened. “Is somebody calling me?”
Mrs. Forbes began to climb the stairs deliberately while she spoke with energy. “Hurry down, Jewel. Mr. Evringham wants you on the ’phone.”
“Goody, goody!” cried the child, her feet pattering on the thick carpet as she flew down one flight and then passed the housekeeper on the next. “Perhaps he is coming out early to ride.”
“Nothing would surprise me less,” remarked Mrs. Forbes dryly as she mounted.
Jewel flitted to the telephone and picked up the receiver.
“Hello, grandpa, are you coming out?” she asked.
“No, I thought perhaps you would like to come in.”
“In where? Into New York?”
“What are we going to do?” eagerly.
Mr. Evringham, sitting at the desk in his private office, his head resting on his hand, moved and smiled. His mind pictured the expression on the face addressing him quite as distinctly as if no miles divided them.
“Well, we’ll have dinner, for one thing. Where shall it be? At the Waldorf?”
Jewel had never heard the word.
“Do they have Nesselrode pudding?” she asked, with keen interest. Mrs. Forbes had taken her in town one day and given her some at a restaurant.
“Perhaps so. You see I’ve heard from the Steamship Company, and they think that the boat will get in this evening.”
“Oh, grandpa! grandpa! grandpa!”
“Softly, softly. Don’t break the ’phone. I hear you through the window.”
“When shall I come? Oh, oh, oh!”
“Wait, Jewel. Don’t be excited. Listen. Tell Zeke to bring you in to my office on the three o’clock train.”
“Yes, grandpa. Oh, please wait a minute. Do you think it would be too extravagant for me to wear my silk dress?”
“No, let’s be reckless and go the whole figure.”
“All right,” tremulously.
“Oh, grandpa, wait. Can I bring Anna Belle?” but only silence remained.
Jewel hung up the receiver with a hand that was unsteady, and then ran through the house and out of doors, leaving every door open behind her in a manner which would have brought reproof from Mrs. Forbes, who had begun to be Argus-eyed for flies.

A New Zealand woman has been handed a life sentence for killing a motorcyclist in a head-on collision while fleeing police and high on meth in Western Australia.
Kylee Michelle Tiraroa Fay King, 36, will spend at least 13 years behind bars after being convicted of murdering Jordan Thorsager.
King was on the wrong side of Leach Highway and had been chased by police on-and-off for about 40 minutes through several Perth suburbs when she ploughed into the 24-year-old as he rode over the crest of a bridge in the early hours of February 14 last year.
Her speeds reached more than 140 km/h, she went through stop signs and red lights, and repeatedly crossed to the wrong side of the road, including through oncoming traffic and roundabouts, forcing other drivers to take evasive action.
The crash ripped the front wheel and forks from the motorcycle, embedding them into the front of King's car, while Mr Thorsager was flung onto the verge.
His helmet was found 30 metres away on the other side of the highway, while his motorcycle caught fire.
King, meanwhile, abandoned her damaged car as it was still moving and fled the scene, with the vehicle coming to a stop when it hit a power pole.
In her interview with detectives, she was belligerent, persistently suggesting police were to blame because they had not stopped chasing her, calling them dogs who did not abort the pursuit because they wanted to "f**" her up.
WA Supreme Court Justice Bruno Fianacca said during sentencing on Wednesday that police ended the chase once King drove onto the wrong side of the road.
King was initially charged with manslaughter but it was later upgraded to murder. She pleaded guilty.
In WA, a felony murder is an act in pursuit of an unlawful purpose that is likely to endanger life, and there does not need to be an intention to kill or inflict injury.
"King made a conscious and deliberate decision to drive in a manner that she thought would force police to cease their pursuit," prosecutor Adam Ebell told the court.
"She drove with false registration plates, she drove without a valid licence and she drove having consumed methylamphetamine."
Justice Fianacca said the crash was the "culmination of a shocking course of reckless behaviour", describing dash-cam footage of the pursuit as frightening.
"Your deliberate, dangerous actions took the life of a young man who was using the road lawfully and had every right to believe he could do so safely," he told King.
"The sentence that I impose could never reflect the value of Mr Thorsager's life or the loss suffered by his family."
The court heard King's car attracted the attention of police because the stolen plates had been involved in high-speed pursuits in the previous fortnight.

In South Jersey, pet lovers stop at nothing to give their furry friends the best.
When economists study what Americans spend their money on each year, we expect essentials like housing, transportation and groceries to rank highly, followed by fun things like movie tickets, beer and alcohol. But one sector where spending is steadily increasing year after year is in the pet industry.
In 2012, Americans spent approximately $53 billion on their pets, according to the American Pet Products Association (APPA). And when 2013 numbers are reported, it’s expected to increase to more than $55 billion. But within those staggering amounts, we wonder what exactly that money is going toward. The APPA reports food and vet care account for two-thirds, and grooming, boarding and pet hotels amount to $4.4 billion. And believe it or not, Americans spend more than $300 million on pet costumes alone, according to the National Retail Federation.
These statistics reinforce what many can readily admit—pets are more than furry companions, they are full-blown members of the family. We take them to dog parks for play dates, put them on our holiday cards (even signing their names), and yes, dress them up on occasion. Call it torture if you will, it’s still pretty cute.
Pet lovers in South Jersey have a wealth of options to pamper their pets, from spa-like grooming treatments to dog-friendly restaurants; they are living better than some humans. In fact, one of the increasingly popular services for dogs is day care—places where Fido can go on a daily basis and romp around with fellow dogs while you work your 9-5.
“People’s view of their pets has changed from when I was young,” says Mike Sinko, co-owner of Villa La PAWS Resort & Spa in Maple Shade. “They are a part of the family, and owners want to make sure they are happy, which means getting socialized.”
Before opening his own doggie day care last September, Sinko says he remembers how sad his dogs used to look when he would leave for work every day. “I used to work in an office and of course I couldn’t bring my dogs with me, and it was hard to leave them home alone,” Sinko says. Now he spends his days with his own dogs, plus others, who play indoors and out in a fully supervised environment.
But is day care all that necessary? “Dogs aren’t that much different than people,” Sinko says. “Imagine being alone all day. When someone comes home, you’d be all wound up and ready to go. But when most people get home, they are tired and don’t devote the proper amount of attention to their pets.”
Ryan Kowalski, co-owner of Woof Day Care in Mantua, believes day care benefits both the pet and its owner. “After a long day at work, the owner doesn’t have to worry about rushing home to let their dog out, or wonder if they will find any surprises or chewed up items,” Kowalski says. “When they are at day care, dogs aren’t at home causing damage or dealing with separation anxiety. They are getting exercise and having fun. Both the dog and the owner will be happier.”
Kowalski opened Woof Day Care in April 2013 after seeing how the trends in pet expenditures were on the rise. “I’m not surprised people spend money on their pets like they do, and this is just another opportunity for owners to care for their pets,” he says. “Dogs are pack animals by nature, and sure, not every dog needs day care, but I think socialization is a big component of a dog’s happiness and this helps fulfill that for them.”
Dr. Jennifer Forsyth, a mobile veterinarian in South Jersey, has been taking her dog Martin to Woof Day Care since it opened. She says Martin’s pent up energy led him to some destructive behavior around the house. “The day care seemed like something that would be fun for him and an outlet for his energy,” Forsyth says. After taking him two to three times a week, she noticed a change in him. “He quit destroying stuff in the house and seemed a lot happier.”
As a professional in the animal industry, she sees doggie day care as a must, not a luxury. “Any dog trainer will tell you that dogs need an outlet, and that socialization is a necessity,” she says. Forsyth, who also cooks for her dogs and has them on a raw food diet, believes in caring for her pets on all levels. “I take care of them nutritionally by not feeding them kibble from the store and buying high-end dog treats from specialty stores; day care is the mental component. It’s part of the package of taking care of my pets.”
While how dogs feel on the inside is important, for many, it’s also about keeping their dogs in the latest fashion trends. Michael Baker and Brian Jackson, co-owners of It’s a Doggie Dog World in Voorhees, could never find things they liked for their dog, Rocky. After attending trade shows and seeing all of the products available for dogs that couldn’t be purchased in the area, they left their day jobs for the pet industry in 2008, and relocated from Egg Harbor to Voorhees in 2012.
It’s a Doggie Dog World offers an all-natural bakery, gourmet treats, toys with organic fibers, treat jars, gift items, grooming, and clothing and accessories. “It’s a whole different world that many pet owners didn’t know was there,” Baker says.
Lisa Torquati, a Voorhees resident, has been shopping at It’s a Doggie Dog World since it opened. For her cockapoo, Jersey, Torquati was looking for products that were not only trendy, but safe. “I buy all natural food and treats made in the U.S.A., which has become a huge conversation among pet owners,” she says. “I think that’s something that any knowledgeable pet owner should be doing.”
Torquati also looks for fashion-forward trends for her dog, whose collar and leash she changes by the season, and dresses up in the colder weather. “She is a smaller dog, so I want her to be warm, and I will put her in coats and sweaters, and I can find ones for each holiday, like Christmas or Valentine’s Day.”
She doesn’t think any of her purchasing habits are unusual. “I don’t do anything outlandish, but I do try to give my dog a certain quality of life. She’s part of my family and I think she should be treated as well as anyone I’m responsible for,” Torquati says.
Her feelings are reinforced at the parties held at It’s a Doggie Dog World, some for holidays, and others just for fun, like Yappy Hour, where humans and their dogs can mix and mingle with light refreshments. “It brings those of us with pets together, and helps us to feel not so, well, nutty,” she says.

There’s no way to know how Greg Norman thought the world would react when he agreed to team up with Saudi Arabia and take on the PGA Tour as the CEO of LIV Golf, but you have to imagine he knew there was a pretty good chance he wouldn’t exactly be welcomed as a savior.
While dozens of players have agreed to defect to LIV with the help of the massive bags of money that have been dangled in front of them, there’s still a ton of uncertainty surrounding the upstart league that hasn’t even come close to escaping the massive shadow of controversy and drama hanging over every single event it’s hosted.
Norman has also seen his reputation take a fairly solid hit (he—along with Phil Mickelson—were barred from the Celebration of Champions at the British Open this year). However, he’s slowly but surely leaned into his role as the golf world’s equivalent of Brad Wesley from Road House: a man with a vision and plenty of money to burn who couldn’t care less about the bridges he burns while trying to get his way.
On Wednesday, the man known as “The Shark” appeared to fire his latest shot across the bows of the PGA Tour and LIV detractors when he posted a video of a great white attacking a fake seal on Instagram along with the caption “LIVing up to the namesake” (while tagging @TheOcean for good measure).
It’s unclear if Norman is teasing some big news or was simply in the mood to take aim at his many haters.
However, the timing of the post is somewhat interesting when you consider the biggest LIV-related news of the week revolves around a meeting Tiger Woods organized with other high-profile players on Tuesday concerning strategies that can be harnessed to box out their new competitor (there’s also the lawsuit Patrick Reed filed against Brandel Chamblee and the Golf Channel, which certainly isn’t doing him or the league he now represents many favors based on the bulk of the reactions it’s generated).
I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Colombia’s Congress threatens to officially investigate Prosecutor General Mario Iguaran for withholding alleged evidence of Supreme Court magistrates’ criminal contacts.
The country’s financial police (UIAF) accused the judges Monday of having links to criminals by discovering financial irregularities. The financial police itself was criticized of monitoring the police without having that right to. Both the UIAF and intelligence service DAS are accused of illegally wiretapping government opponents.
Congress requested Iguaran himself had said that he received alleged evidence concerning the magistrates in September, but had not send the documents to Congress yet, who is constitutionally the branch to investigate members of federal courts.
“Once we have received the report and studied it, we will possibly start an investigation against the Prosecution for withholding evidence”, Liberal Representative German Olano told El Espectador Thursday. “The role of a PG is to submit any information he has and not to withhold it”, Olano added.

Pulsars are rapidly rotating highly magnetized neutron stars thought to have been formed in the core-collapse supernova of massive stars. Ever since their discovery, pulsars have shown complex behaviors. This is certainly true for their emission mechanism, which is still not fully understood. This is primarily because of the abrupt changes that appear in the pulse profile. Recent discoveries have shown that these emission changes effect the spin dynamics, particularly the spin-down rate. This indicates that pulsar emissions are even more complex than previously thought. The goal of this thesis is to apply new analysis techniques to help shed light on the pulsar emission problem.;Over the past decade, it has become apparent that a class of `bursting pulsars' exist with the discovery of PSR J1752+2359 and PSR J1938+2213. In these pulsars, a sharp increase in the emission intensity is observed that then tends to systematically drop-off from pulse-to-pulse. We describe the discovery of such a relationship in high-sensitivity observations of the young (characteristic age of 90; 000 yrs) 0.33 s pulsar B0611+22 at both 327 MHz and 1400 MHz with the Arecibo observatory. While it was previously shown that B0611+22 has mode-switching properties, the data presented here show that this pulsar emits bursts with characteristic time-scales of several hundred seconds. At 327 MHz, the pulsar shows steady behavior in one emission mode which is enhanced by bursting emission slightly offset in pulse phase from this steady emission. Contrastingly at 1400 MHz, the two modes appear to behave in a competing operation while still offset in phase. Using a uctuation spectrum analysis, we also investigate each mode independently for sub-pulse drifting. Neither emission mode (i.e. during bursts or persistent emission) shows the presence of the drifting sub-pulse phenomenon. While further examples of this behavior and studies at different wavelengths are required, it appears that this phenomenon may be quite common among the pulsar population.;Until now, PSR J1752+2359 is the only one of the three bursting pulsars that has not been accompanied by a lower energy level normal emission mode. Rather, it has appeared to null between bursting events. We have been able to show through the pulse-energy distribution that PSR J1752+2359 does indeed have a normal mode with a peak flux at 0.17+/-0.3 mJy with a pulse energy of 1.0+/-0.1 muJy-s. It is also shown that PSR J1752+2359 presents no evidence for the drifting sub-pulse phenomenon in either emission mode. This is consistent with what has been seen in PSR B0611+22.;We also present techniques that searched for chaotic behaviors within the spin dynamics of 17 pulsars. These techniques allow us to re-sample the original spin-down rate estimates without losing structural information, and to search for evidence of a strange attractor within these frequency derivative time series. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods by applying them to a component of the Lorenz and Rossler attractors that were sampled with similar cadence to the pulsar time series. Our measurements of correlation dimension and Lyapunov exponent show that the underlying behavior appears to be driven by a strange attractor with approximately three governing non-linear differential equations. This is particularly apparent in the case of PSR B1828--11 where a correlation dimension of 2.06+/-0.03 and a Lyapunov exponent of (4.0+/-) x 10-4 inverse days were measured. These results provide an additional diagnostic for testing future models of this behavior.;Lastly, we introduce future plans to further improve our understanding of the bursting phenomena and spin-down rate changes seen here. Simultaneous observations at different frequencies will help determine how a burst is propagating through different emission regions. Along with this, a recent analogous discovery to bursting implies that bursting events may be accompanied by X-ray changes. Scheduled X-ray observations will soon determine if this is true. As data sets cover even larger amounts of time, the non-linear analysis will improve and can be utilized to test theoretical models. We also present data provided by Andrew Lyne that hints at a connection between bursting and spin-down changes.

"Because it is shovel-ready construction": FCR's lame explanation for seeking federal stimulus funds for an essentially private arena
Atlantic Yards Report
It was one of the more astonishing exchanges at the informational meeting last Wednesday--Forest City Ratner's MaryAnne Gilmartin's explanation for why the developer has sought stimulus funds to boost its essentially private project.
Remember, the developer has lobbied for federal stimulus funds, and is almost certainly still lobbying for such help, even though former Empire State Development Corporation CEO Marisa Lago said at a May 29 state Senate oversight hearing that the ESDC hadn't sought such funds.
Why not? Because, as I note below--it's not a public project.
(Video shot by Jonathan Barkey; edited by Norman Oder)
“Can Forest City Ratner comment on why there have been public requests for federal stimulus funds to help with the construction of the arena?” asked moderator Craig Hammerman.
“It’s shovel-ready construction,” shouted Marie Louis of BUILD (Brooklyn United for Innovative Local Development), a Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) signatory.
Gilmartin at first looked a little uncomfortable with the question--perhaps because there's no good answer--but quickly recovered: “Because it is shovel-ready construction, and the fact of the matter is that the project, like other projects around the country, have suffered, based on the economic downturn, and it’s our responsibility to try to do what we can to make the project happen and to maintain its viability.”

9:00 – 12:00noon
Cancer Evolution and Precision Oncology – Li Liu, M.D. – Indigo 202 A
Cancer, as an evolutionary process, is born with a heterogeneous and dynamic nature. Precision identification and intervention of cancer shall consider the past, present and future of each tumor. With NextGen sequencing technologies, we can now catch a glimpse of this evolutionary process. However, is it possible to use these static snapshots to help hit the moving target? How close or how far are we to apply it in clinical practice? In this interactive workshop, we will:
Introduce the basic concepts of molecular evolution and cancer subclones
Examine the relationship of host, tumor and intervention as key players in an ecological system
Decipher the evolutionary process of a drug-resistant tumor sample with NextGen sequencing data and computational modeling
Discuss the promises and challenges of cancer evolution in precision oncology
9:00 – 12:00noon
Precision Medicine 101 – Genomic Literacy – Jeanette McCarthy – Indigo 202 B
Genomic literacy is essential for all members of the health care ecosystem, not just health care providers, but those involved in regulatory, legal, financial and technical aspects of precision medicine as well. Whether you are new to or already working in the field of precision medicine, this interactive workshop will strengthen your foundational understanding of the field. This workshop will cover
Human genomics (DNA, genes and genetic variation)
Genomics, heredity and disease (the link between genetic variation and disease)
Genomics in medical practice (current clinical applications of genetic testing)
Risks, regulation and ethics of genetic testing
12:00 – 1:00pm
1:00 – 4:00pm
Integration of Pharmacogenomics in Patient-Centered Healthcare – Adrijana Kekic – 204B
This workshop is intended for clinicians, researchers, and payers interested in results of implementation of pharmacogenomics in patient-centered model of care.
The workshop is focused on sharing examples of lessons learned from the clinic. Areas of practice covered will include cardiology, psychology, transplant, anesthesia and palliative care. The intent of this workshop is to provide an interactive forum for discussion on the role and integration of PGx at bedside, with specific emphasis on chronic disease management, polypharmacy, therapy selection and pre-emptive prescribing. Goals of the Workshop
- Discuss the impact of PGx in patient centered model of care.
- Increase enthusiasm for implanting PGx testing in the clinic.
- Encourage collaborations in PGx discoveries and clinical implementations.
1:00 – 4:00pm
Establishing the Evidence Base and Quality Standards in Next Generation Sequencing – Paul Langley – Indigo 204 A
The goal of this workshop is to detail the required framework for establishing the evidence base and quality reporting standards in next generation sequencing (NGS). Accepting NGS as an integral part of patient management in physician practice will only succeed if it can be demonstrated through real time systematic observations that claims made for improved outcomes and lower costs in target patient populations can be validated and reported to the physician and NGS assay vendor in a meaningful time frame. Reporting the results of an NGS assay with suggestions for potential therapy matching to gene expression is only a first step. An assay vendor needs to work with the practice to ensure improved patient care. Participants in the workshop will:
Consider the minimum evidence standards required to support adoption of NGS interventions
Consider the information framework required to support feedback in NGS interventions
Consider options for quality incentive programs to support adoption of NGS interventions as part of physician practice under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act
Consider complementary data elements capturing co-morbidities and adverse events to support NGS interventions in target populations

Several news agencies are reporting that Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has placed himself into “self-quarantine” this week at his Texas home, because he interacted with a person at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) who has tested positive for coronavirus.
Cruz said on Twitter that he had only a brief conversation and shook hands with the person. The interaction took place 10 days ago, he said.
Maryland officials warned Saturday that the person who attended the recent conference in the suburb of Oxon Hill had tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.
President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence were also in attendance at CPAC. White House officials said Saturday that there was no indication either had met or were in “close proximity” to the infected person.
Cruz said that he isn’t experiencing symptoms that are associated with the virus and that medical officials have told him the odds are low that the person passed the virus on to him.
He doesn’t meet the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria for self-quarantine, partly because of how brief his contact with the person was, he said.
“Nevertheless, out of an abundance of caution, and because of how frequently I interact with my constituents as a part of my job, and to give everyone peace of mind, I have decided to remain at my home in Texas this week, until a full 14 days have passed since the CPAC interaction,” his statement read.
Cruz added that people should take the coronavirus outbreak seriously.
“I encourage everyone to follow the recommendations of the CDC and other health professionals in protecting their own health and welfare, as well as the health and welfare of those around them,” he said.
Shortly afterward, Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., announced he and three additional staffers were “under self-quarantine” after “sustained contact” with the same CPAC attendee. He added, “We are all asymptomatic and feel great. But we are being proactive and cautious.”
Officials with the American Conservative Union (ACU), which hosted CPAC, said Saturday the attendee had been exposed before the conference, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed his case.
ACU officials said they were working with the Maryland Department of Health since the CPAC conference was held in that state.
“At this time, not a single person has reported any unusual illness. Thus the Dept of Health is not restricting movements or interactions with others of those hotel employees,” ACU said. “We continue to remain in close contact with the infected individual and he continues to be doing better. Also at this point, no other CPAC attendee, participant or staff has tested positive for coronavirus.”

The 2019 Trade Deadline Looms Large for the Phillies
Thursday is the last day of the 2019 All-Star Break and when the Phillies return to action on Friday against the Washington Nationals, all eyes will be on how the Phillies approach the July 31 trade deadline. At 47-43, the Phillies currently hold one of the two Wild Card spots in the National League. But with many teams nearby them in the standings, to what extent will the Phillies be active at the July 31 trade deadline?
The Phillies should be buyers at the trade deadline. Over at MLB.com, Mark Feinsand lists as many as 11 teams that could be on the bubble between buyers and sellers. The Phillies are not one of them. The reason the Phillies seek to win in 2019 is not because they feel that they are in an ideal position to win. It is because they made some big investments in 2019 to back up now.
No, that big investment was not necessarily outfielder Bryce Harper, whose signing is a long-term piece for the Phillies. It was not the $500 million the Phillies spent total this offseason. Instead, it was the high price in terms of prospects paid for catcher J.T. Realmuto that made the Phillies expect to contend. Realmuto is currently signed just this year and next.
The world saw former Phillies prospect Sixto Sanchez dazzle at the Futures Game on Sunday. The main piece in the Realmuto deal was a reminder that the Phillies paid big to win now. They will do what they can to win in 2019.
But the question is, how far in would the Phillies go to win in 2019?
The Phillies must add starting pitching before all else. There is a sense of urgency there, since Vince Velasquez is already back to starting and Jake Arrieta is pitching with a bone spur in his pitching arm. I think that if the Phillies will trade some of their system depth, they will likely look at trading for starting pitching that will be signed beyond this season.
Matthew Boyd comes to mind. Boyd is signed for two more seasons beyond this one. The two years of Boyd might make the Phillies willing to trade six of either Adam Haseley or Mickey Moniak, especially since both do not figure to fit on the roster at the same time right away.
In Arizona, both Zach Greinke and Robbie Ray might be had. Greinke is signed to big money for the next two seasons. The Phillies might be able to add Greinke by taking his salary instead of giving big prospects. Ray could cost the Phillies prospects, but he is signed for next season, too.
Should the Phillies land one long-term arm, I can see the Phillies adding a stop-gap arm whose contract expires. Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia mentions the likes of Tanner Roark as an option that will not cost too much and who will be a free agent at season's end. An arm like Roark, paired with someone like Boyd, might give the Phillies their best chance.
But of course, it takes another team to make a deal, too. With so many teams currently "in it" - MLB Commissioner Rob Manfried mentioned at the All-Star game that as many as 25 teams are still in contention - trade partners will be scarce. The Phillies will have to compete with the likes of the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox for starting pitching.
That means it's not easy task. With one lone trade deadline of July 31 this year, there is no Jamie Moyer available for an August trade. The Phillies will need to make an impact this month. A starting pitcher - preferably two - makes the Phillies advance their status as contenders.
A bullpen arm or bat would be nice, but they are not the pressing need right now. The Phillies should get some of their injured bullpen arms back and Velasquez or Nick Pivetta could move to the bullpen and solidify it. Starting pitching is key for the 2019 Phillies.

Boston police are urging people not to bring backpacks, sticks or anything that can be used as weapons. Police are planning to have extra officers on hand, as well as barriers to separate demonstrators and counter-demonstrators.
The Dig has details on the two counter-protests being planned.
On Monday, Mayor Walsh vowed to keep the city safe and said he was urging any families thinking of coming into Boston on a nice summer day to continue with their plans. One thing those families won't be able to do, however, is buy an hot dog or soda or try on a T-shirt or ball cap, because the city Parks and Recreation Department has banned all of the vendors who normally ply their wares along the Common's main paths.
In an e-mail to vendors yesterday, a Parks Department manager told the vendors:
Per order of the Boston Police Department and the Boston Parks Commissioner there will be NO VENDING OPERATIONS ALLOWED ON BOSTON COMMON on Saturday, August 19th. No vehicles will be allowed on the Boston Common as of 7:00 a.m. and throughout the day as needed.
I do apologize for any inconvenience this causes, however, public safety is of the utmost importance to the City of Boston. Please reach out to me if you have any questions. As more information becomes available I will update you accordingly.

We'll spend 3 nights on the Ozark Highlands Trail in a remote, rugged, and scenic part of Arkansas backpacking between the Lick Branch and Ozone Campground trail heads - the longest section of the OHT. Participation will be limited to about 6 people. Get on the waiting list here (preferably) or by email to [masked]. Once you're approved, I'll move you to the YES list.
Outings like this are one way our local Sierra Club group raises money to fund operations. A donation of $10 would be gratefully accepted.
I haven't been on this section of the OHT before. There will be two climbs of about 800' and total hiking distance will be about 30 miles so this will not be a casual trip. Maps 6, 7, & 8: http://www.ouachitamaps.com/OHT.html
We'll have a rendezvous point on the south side of KC and another at the lunch stop in Fayetteville AR to facilitate car-pooling. The most likely scenario is to drop at least one vehicle at Lick Branch TH and proceed to Ozone TH (about 45 minutes, some gravel road) and hike from east to west.
Sunrise will be about 7:20AM and sunset 6:35PM. Likely camping areas are Boomer Branch, Arbaugh Road, and Miller Mountain. This results in daily hikes of about 4, 11, 9.5, and 5.5 miles. Some camps may not have fire rings or nearby water.
As usual, we'll Leave No Trace (and that means a lot more than just carrying out our trash)
Don't have all the gear for a backpacking trip? No problem, we have some available for loan to Sierra Club members for use on this outing.
During the sign-in process all participants on Sierra Club outings are required to sign a standard liability waiver. If you would like to read the Liability Waiver before you choose to participate in an outing, please go to: http://www.sierraclub.org/outings/chapter/forms/ .

Season 6 Sunday Best winner Tasha Page Lockhart talks new marriage, new music and more in the upcoming Issue of WE Magazine (Empowering People Everywhere To Change The Conversation).
Tasha is one of my favorite female Gospel artist to keep up with. Not only can the girl sing her face off, but she walks boldly in her truth. I’ve never seen her conform to what the “saints” feel a Gospel artist should dress like or look like…. In her words …she’s just different and I love that about her!
Award-winning songstress Tasha (formally known as Tasha Page-Lockhart) reemerges on the music scene as the first lady of Legacy Music Group, and as a woman who is focused on healing and helping by sharing her powerful new single “Why Not Me” and the significance behind it.
“No one can escape tragedy and pain,” said the singer. “I could have been bitter, could have committed suicide and perhaps pointed the finger but instead, I owned up to my actions, unpacked the pain and through my emotions and lyrics have built a warrior who is healing and fighting every day.”
In preparation for the recording process, Tasha was determined to find the courage to face her tormented past consisting of sexual assault and substance abuse. Following extensive soul searching, she put pen to paper and what followed was a heartfelt moment of healing, resulting in her current single “Why Not Me” now on Apple Music, Spotify, and TIDAL.
In 2003, Tasha renewed her spiritual foundation, rehabilitated from substance abuse and subsequently found success. She was crowned the winner of season six of BET’s Sunday Best and followed up with a handful of sensational albums including Here Right Now, Jesus Revealed and The Beautiful Project. She’s graced numerous stages with electrifying performances on BET’s 106 & Park, TV One and Tyler Perry’s “Madea on the Run” to name a few. Along the way, she secured movie roles, experienced Billboard chart success, nabbed music awards and established herself as a prominent author. Backed by her spiritual rebirth and rehabilitation, Tasha became a certified crisis counselor to serve as a life coach to help lift anyone in need. In addition, she also Pastor’s a church in Mt. Vernon, NY with her husband Dr. Veron House.
Michelle Williams celebrated her 42nd birthday on July 23rd.
