Clean Up City of St. Augustine, Florida

In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!

IN HAEC VERBA re: TARBALL -- Crescent Beach tarballs' Coast Guard analytical chemistry report say they're not from BP's spill

From: Linda Stoughton
Sent: Friday, July 23, 2010 11:12 AM
To: Jan Brewer; Jerry Cameron
Subject: Verbal Report Conformation on Crescent Beach Tar Patties
Importance: High

Good Morning Jan and Mr. Cameron,

I just received “Verbal Conformation” that the Tar Patties collected on Crescent Beach on July 8, 2010, are “NOT” from Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The information was received from Florida Peninsula Command, Miami. FPC received the information from the USCG who had received the report from the Marine Lab. I requested a hard copy of the report and Florida Peninsula Command is going to obtain a copy and forward to Emergency Management.

The report will be only one to several pages long and probably will not contain any specific scientific information on the tar patties or their origin.

Because of the sensitivity of this issue and public concern, I have only notified the two of you of this information. I will certainly forward the hard copy report when it arrives.

Respectfully,

Linda

Rep. Alan Grayson

Well, we did it. We got some help for Americans who are living in their cars, and Americans who are eating cat food out of a can. Americans who have been out of work for almost two years, and then saw the right wing block their unemployment insurance payments for months.

Here is some interesting commentary on the speech that started it:
(link)

After that speech, the Senate voted to release the funds, the House voted yesterday, the President will sign the bill, and we're done.

We didn't get sidetracked by Dan Gainor's assault threat on Tuesday, or Mr. Anonymous' assassination threat on Wednesday.

Call them out.
Make them squirm.
Don't let them bully us.
Don't back down.

That's how we do it.

And it's working. Because in the House vote, 30 of the 179 Republicans peeled off from the all-powerful No Caucus, and voted to release the unemployment insurance funds. For the first time, they got that funny feeling that you get when you exercise a muscle that you didn't even know you had. That funny feeling the Republicans experienced was . . . a pang of conscience.

Evidently, 30 out of 179 Republicans in the House now have a functioning conscience. It's a start.

Truth,

Rep. Alan Grayson

Arnold & Porter on New Whistleblower Provision

Whistleblower Incentives and Protections in the
Financial Reform Act
Employers subject to the regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)
should be aware that the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act (Act) was recently passed in Congress and signed by the
President on July 21, 2010. The Act will create new financial incentives and
protections for employees who disclose information about alleged violations
of commodities and securities laws that subsequently lead to successful SEC
or CFTC enforcement actions. Protections also are provided to employees of
providers of consumer financial products and services that report violations of
consumer financial protection laws and regulations. Each of these provisions
must be implemented by the SEC, the CFTC, and the newly created Consumer
Financial Protection Bureau (the Bureau) through the rulemaking process within
270 days of the enactment of the legislation.
Financial “Bounties” for Employees to Disclose Information
Spurred by the perceived failures of regulatory agencies to discover improprieties in the securities
and commodities markets, Congress sought to create a whistleblower program to incentivize
individuals to assist with government investigations. The Act would authorize the CFTC and SEC
to provide monetary rewards to whistleblowers who provide “original information” that assists in
a successful enforcement action under the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 leading
to the recovery of greater than US$1 million in aggregate. These provisions would authorize
the agencies to pay bounties ranging, at their discretion, from a minimum of 10 percent to a
maximum of 30 percent of the total collected monetary sanctions from a corporation to any
individual or group that discloses such “original information.”
These new monetary incentives will likely increase the number of employees who report information
to the SEC or CFTC; they provide a financial award for any fruitful tips and, in combination with
the additional protections discussed in this advisory, may offset the perceived risk to employees
of filing reports that might have otherwise jeopardized their current or future employment

Orlando Sentinel: Gelber to Aronberg -- Let's talk and talk and talk and talk and talk

State Sen. Dan Gelber has asked his Democratic rival, Sen. Dave Aronberg, to agree to 11 — that’s right, 11 — debates before the Aug. 24 primary settles the nomination for attorney general.

In a letter to his counterpart, Gelber campaign manager Christian Ulvert says he like to see debates in all 11 Florida media markets, from Miami-Dade/Monroe all the way to Pensacola.

Orlando Sentinel: Florida may lose billions in tourism from oil spill

Florida may lose billions in tourism from oil spill
Travel industry makes case for $500 million emergency oil-spill fund

By Sara. K. Clarke, Orlando Sentinel

8:27 PM EDT, July 22, 2010
Advertisement

The nation's biggest travel trade group said Thursday the BP PLC oil spill will cost the Gulf region's tourism industry between $7.6 billion and $22.7 billion, with most of the economic damage falling on Florida's shoulders.

The U.S. Travel Association, in releasing a study it commissioned from Oxford Economics, asked for the federal government's help in securing $500 million for an "emergency" marketing campaign from BP, the British oil company whose blownout well is the source of the giant spill.

The industry trade group said the disaster, triggered by an explosion aboard the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig in April, could cost coastal-tourism interests and those that do business with them as little as $7.6 billion over 15 months or as much as $22.7 billion over three years.

Both sets of figures are based on historical data drawn from 25 natural and manmade disasters as well as National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration forecasts on where the oil may eventually wind up. The upper-range figure assumes the oil will find its way around the Florida Peninsula to the Atlantic coast as well.

"In the wake of any disaster, facts often take a back seat to fears and to rumors," Roger Dow, president and chief executive officer of the travel association, said in calling for additional marketing and advertising. "The result is people moving elsewhere and canceling plans."

In the worst-case scenario, Florida's $60-billion-a-year tourism economy would sustain more than three-fourths of the region's financial losses, or $18.6 billion over the three years, according to the Oxford Economics study.

The study looked at previous disasters that have harmed tourism, such as Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the recent H1N1 outbreaks that tainted the industry in Mexico, the Asian tsunami in 2004, and other oil spills such as the Exxon Valdez in 1989 and the Ixtoc spill near the Yucatan peninsula in 1979.

The travel group, as part of a 10-point plan it calls "Roadmap to Recovery," hopes to convince the federal government and BP that spending $500 million now on an oil-response marketing fund could generate $7.5 billion in tourism spending that would offset the group's projected losses.

"It is more cost effective than dealing with the damages after the fact," said Adam Sacks, managing director of Oxford Economics USA.

In addition to marketing dollars from BP, the tourism industry is asking the government for help getting businesses access to loans and tax incentives that could help them remain open and for incentives that would promote travel to disaster-affected areas.

According to the study, tourism supports 400,000 jobs in the Gulf Coast region, where leisure-and-hospitality employment in counties along the shore accounts for 15 percent of all private-sector jobs, compared with 12 percent for the nation overall.

Even areas along the Gulf coast that have not received any oil from the spill are suffering economically, the study noted. For example, data from the tourism website TripAdvisor.com shows that the share of searches for information about destinations such as Fort Myers Beach, which is still oil-free and, so far, nowhere near the spill, have fallen by almost 30 percent compared with a year ago.

Interest in areas where tar balls and matted crude have reached the beaches, such Pensacola and Destin, has fallen more sharply, by about 50 percent, according to TripAdvisor.

"The declines are clearly substantial," said Sacks. "It's really a dramatic effect on perceptions as well as current behavior."

BP gave the state of Florida $25 million in advertising money shortly after the spill to mount a quick-turnaround marketing campaign. But in recent weeks the oil company has given a chilly reception to overtures for more help. When Gov. Charlie Crist asked for another $50 million in late June, BP declined the request.

Raising the request for more tourism-marketing aid to a regional and a national level should reinforce the importance of the need, said Chris Thompson, president and chief executive officer of Visit Florida, the state's quasi-private tourism-marketing agency.

"We have the most at stake, and that's well recognized," he said.

Dow and others are expected to testify about the spill's effects on U.S. tourism before the House Energy and Commerce Committee in coming weeks.

He said the trade group hopes a multi-state request for financial help, backed by data, will be successful.

"I think it was disappointing that the governor's request was denied," Dow said. "We're just confident that, if we can build this request with the metrics, it's going to be very hard to deny the damages."

Saint Petersblog: Must-read -- the political case for Dave Aronberg

Face it Florida Democrats, having to decide between Dan Gelber and Dave Aronberg for the party’s nominee in the Attorney General’s race is like picking the starting quarterback for the AFC Pro Bowl team. Do you go with Tom Brady and his fistful of Super Bowl rings or do you start Peyton Manning with his otherworldly statistics and his own Super Bowl ring?

Brady or Manning? Gelber or Aronberg? Damn, I just don’t know.

One thing I won’t do is dog whoever I don’t pick. For me, it’s likely going to be Dave Aronberg, but that doesn’t mean I don’t admire, respect and wish good fortune for Dan Gelber.

If I do end up voting for Dave Aronberg (and I’m not there yet), and he doesn’t make it out of the primary, I’ll be the first person after the election to put a Gelber yard sign in their lawn. Gelber was in town two weeks ago and I raced to make his fundraiser, contributing the last $30 I had on me.

That said, let me make the case for Dave Aronberg, at least from a purely political standpoint. After all, almost every Democrat, and even most Independents and Republicans, can agree that both Aronberg and Gelber are eminently qualified to serve as Attorney General.

So, again, this is just a matter of pure politics.

First and foremost, too many of the people who support Dan Gelber are the establishment Democrats who have lost a decades worth of races to the Republican Party. Dan Gelber has all of the Jim Davis types on his side — very good people, people I may have voted for, but people who, as candidates, have just had their lunch handed to them by the GOP.

Gelber’s supporters will point to the fact that he was helping to run the party’s House Victory operations when the Democrats set some sort of record for the most pick-ups in an election cycle. This is just the exception that proves the rules. In fact, if the Democratic Party had not been so decimated by the Republicans in the five elections previous to 2006 then the opportunity for a “record” pick-up would not have existed in the first place.

Some will see that criticism as an attack on Steve Schale, but it’s not. Dude is one guy. His success is also an exception that proves the rule. Because Steve Schale would probably be successful running candidates if he worked in Bangladesh. It’s many of the people who worked around Steve – the cookie-cutter mail firms, the unimaginative production teams, the tone deaf pollsters, the inept field staff (you know who I am talking about) — that ran the party into the ground.

There’s still some good talent in Tallahassee, Screven and Co. Arceneaux, Jotkoff, etc., but the Democratic Party has yet to find someone on par with a Frank Terrafirma, much less an Andy Palmer or a Jim Rimes.

Point-blank: is there a political genius, some sort of counter-intuitive tactician, working for the Democratic Party who haunts the dreams of the RPOF? Um, no.

So anything that can be done to shake-up whatever constitutes Florida’s Democratic Establishment is a good thing. And by all accounts, that involves Aronberg beating Gelber.

(Man, am I gonna get in trouble for those last few paragraphs!)

Moving on, another political reason to support Aronberg over Gelber is because Aronberg makes a better candidate for Governor. Governor?Aren’t they running for Attorney General, you ask? Of course they both are, but Democrats need to plan for the future. I know that isn’t something Democrats are especially good at, but let’s assume that either Alex Sink wins this year and serves eight years in the Governor’s mansion or that McCollum or Scott beat her. The Party will need someone to either carry on Sink’s legacy and run against Adam Putnam in 2018 or challenge McCollum or Scott in 2014.

Who will be a better gubernatorial candidate in four or eight years? Clearly, the answer is the younger, more moderate, more telegenic Aronberg.

I understand that there are a million variables that may interrupt a Putnam vs. Aronberg showdown in 2018, but wouldn’t it be nice, for once, if the Democrats planned for the future. Returning to the Brady or Manning analogy, which quarterback do you build a franchise around. I don’t know if Brady could have won outside of Patriot coach Bill Belichick’s system, but I know Peyton Manning was going to be a successful quarterback wherever he went. Same thing with Gelber and Aronberg. Don’t know if Gelber, even with all of his gravitas, will have the drive in eight years, but I know Aronberg will.

Finally, let’s look at how each of these candidates have conducted themselves during this election cycle and determine who you’d want by your side if you were walking down the political equivalent of a dark alley.

Obviously, this is where I have the biggest problem with Dan Gelber. His decision to drop out of the race for the US Senate, at the time and certainly in retrospect, represents a cataclysmic failure in political judgment. I almost believe that, for that reason alone, Gelber doesn’t deserve the nomination, at least as some sort of sacrifice to the gods of political karma.

The domino effect that Gelber started with his decision to cede the race to Kendrick Meek, as magnanimous as it appeared then, is just the kind of disastrous thinking that has doomed the Florida Democratic Party for the last ten years. It’s ironic that Steve Schale, a veteran of the Barack Obama campaign, would let any candidate he worked with, fall victim to the idea that “they can’t win” when it was Obama who proved that no one is ever completely out of a race and that conventional wisdom, especially the conventional wisdom of the Democratic Party, is often wrong.

For the most part, Gelber has run a decent, if uninspired campaign for Attorney General. I say uninspired, because the man has such greatness within him. Unfortunately, I believe there is a significant difference between Dan Gelber the Legislator and Dan Gelber the Candidate.

Dan Gelber the Legislator is the man who deserved a Profile in Courage award for, during the 2008 legislative session, single-handedly standing up against the legislative arrogance of Marco Rubio and his Republican colleagues.

But Dan Gelber the Candidate is the guy who pulled the penny-ante trick of exaggerating how much he raised earlier this year — a trick that earned him a ‘False’ ruling from PoliFact.

Which brings us to the controversy surrounding Gelber’s resignation from the law firm selected to represent BP over the oil spill in the Gulf. While I agree that my friend Dave Aronberg has gone just a little overboard in his criticism of when and how Gelber resigned, at least Aronberg had the stones to make a move.

For a year, these two candidates have been playing footsies with each other, competing with each other not like political rivals, but like Dan and Dave the Reebok-sponsored atheletes from the 1992 Olympics.

Democratic voters have been waiting for one candidate to show them just enough of a reason to vote for him over the other guy. Who cares if Gelber was or was not a shareholder with Akerman Senterfitt or if the St. Petersburg Times editorial board doesn’t like Aronberg’s tactics?

Sometimes, it comes down to which candidate wants “it” more, like a great quarterback on Fourth and 1. For me, Aronberg looks like he wants to score more than Gelber.

In fact, I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who cringed when Gelber called Aronberg a “junior lawyer,” not because I felt bad for Harvard-educated Aronberg, but because Gelber’s sanctimony reinforced our worst thoughts about Gelber. Simply put, that he thinks he’s better than everyone else.

Of course, Dan Gelber is better, greater than us. He is, as Antony spoke of Brutus:

He only, in a general-honest thought
And common good to all, made one of them.
His life was gentle; and the elements
So mix’d in him that Nature might stand up
And say to all the world, “This was a man!”

Of course, Antony only said this of Brutus after he had defeated him in battle.

MIAMI HERALD: True crime in Florida -- West Miami Mayor Convicted of Crimes

WEST MIAMI
Ex-West Miami mayor guilty of misusing phone

BY JOSE CASSOLA
jcassola@MiamiHerald.com

A Miami-Dade jury has found former West Miami Mayor Cesar Carasa guilty of exploiting his official position.

The ex-mayor, suspended from office in December, was convicted Tuesday on charges of misusing his city-issued cellphone.

Authorities said he made $70,700 worth of unauthorized international phone calls to the Dominican Republic and China between 2006 and 2009.

Prosecutors say the calls had nothing to do with city business.

Carasa could face a $500 fine or up to 30 days in jail. He is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 2.

He said he thought his cellphone had unlimited calling.

The jury acquitted him on one exploitation charge of making the unauthorized calls since the city's cellphone carrier, Sprint, credited nearly $65,000 back to the account.

But jurors found him guilty of exploiting his official position when he directed West Miami officials to have Sprint waive or reduce the remaining $5,400 bill. He eventually paid that bill last summer.

``On the one count, my client was acquitted because there was nothing improper of him making those phone calls,'' Carasa's attorney, Bruce H. Lehr, said.

``He thought he had unlimited free use of his cellphone. On the other count, I would disagree with the decision because he paid the $5,400 bill in full.''

Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernández Rundle said in a statement: ``It is bad enough for a public official to use his city tools, in this case, his cellphone, for personal use. But trying to have the city eliminate a personal debt only compounded this misuse of office.''

Carasa campaigned to be reelected as West Miami Mayor this past spring, despite the pending charges. He lost to current Mayor Eduardo Muhiña in April.

Carasa could not be reached for comment.

Reprobate JOHN MICA Denies Being Part of House Tea Party Caucus

See below.

Yesterday, I quoted TPM to the effect that JOHN LUIGI MICA a/k/a "TARBALL" was a part of the Tea Party Caucus of the U.S. House of Representatives. MICA doesn't join caucuses, and TPM has run a correction. See below. We regret the error, which was Rep. Bachmamn's and neither mine nor TPM's mistake.

As Lt. Columbo said in a pilot for the great police procedural TV series, "Columbo," "Ransom for a Dead Man":
Leslie: Lt. Columbo?
Lt. Columbo: Yeah?
Leslie: Thank you for straightening Margaret out. I appreciate it.
Lt. Columbo: Oh, it was the only thing I could do. I mean I just can't have you accused of murder on the wrong evidence.

We wouldn't want to convict JOHN MICA of anything on the wrong evidence, either. We certainly don't want to convict MICA of sympathy with the racist Tea Party based on the wrong evidence. As I reported yesterday, MICA confessed his Tea Party sumpthaies to some 1400 St. Johns County residents on July 20, 2010: "Asked about the Tea Party, MICA defended it, saying it is “derided by the media, called all these bad names – I think they’re patriots.”

We've asked MICA for the tape and have not heard back. I have some 20 pages of typewritten notes on what MICA said, including the quoted remarks. Ipse dixit. Caucus member or not, JOHN MICA is part of the Tea Party.

TPM: Bachmann Bungles Rollout Of House Tea Party Caucus

Evan McMorris-Santoro | July 22, 2010, 9:59AM

Rep. Michelle Bachmann's (R-MN) House Tea Party Caucus debut yesterday mimicked the tea party movement it hopes to represent in Washington -- it was confusing, bumbling and offered a dearth of solid policy goals.

Bachmann says the caucus aims to be a "receptacle" in Washington D.C. for the tea party's frustration with spending, taxes, socialism and, uh, billboard design. But if the caucus' first day is any impression, Bachmann's group will also mirror the amateurish political organizing of the movement.

Before yesterday's unbelievably diverse press conference introducing the caucus got underway, a Bachmann staffer handed out a list of the 28 Republicans that Bachmann's office said were members of the caucus. Before we fourth estaters could fold the thing up and dutifully bury it in a pocket somewhere, we were told the list was wrong -- it was missing Rep. John Mica (R-FL), we were told.

The trouble is, Mica isn't in the Tea Party Caucus -- as a general rule, he doesn't join caucuses ever, his staff told reporters. Turns out that wasn't the only thing wrong with the list -- or the last stumble of the caucus roll-out.

As David Frum's blog reported all day yesterday, Bachmann's caucus list was about as good an example of a poorly-run organization as you can find this week, save for the Department of Agriculture. The Tea Party Caucus list changed throughout the day, with names disappearing and reappearing as reporters called to verify things. The list itself disappeared from Bachmann's website for a time, before finally showing up again and staying up for good.

One Capitol Hill Republican with knowledge of the process told me the embarrassing debacle of the list was a 100% Bachmann affair -- the caucus list is run out of her office and its errors were, as far as my source knew, thanks to Bachmann's staff.

But Bachmann can't be blamed for the other fail of the tea party caucus rollout yesterday: the complete and total lack of any policy specifics. The tea party, as Bachmann and other Republican representatives at the press conference yesterday rightfully stated, is one of the most powerful political groups on the radar at the moment. The movement strikes fear in the hearts of Republican moderates everywhere (and often causes total loss of perspective in less-Republican circles, like the aforementioned Dept. Of Agriculture.) Yet the movement has often been hard to read policy-wise, making it hard for anyone to understand exactly what the movement stands for.

The Tea Party Caucus rally yesterday was no different. Though the gathered members talked a lot about "taking our country back" and "not taking it anymore," they offered essentially no specific policy agenda moving forward. Here's how the New York Times reported what that sounded like:

The caucus will work against new taxes and government spending in an effort to keep activities of the federal government within "constitutional limits," Ms. Bachmann said. She would not elaborate on how the group would move forward, whether, for instance, the Tea Party Caucus would offer legislation of its own or whether its members would work collectively for or against bills put forward by either party.

For reporters there, it was a struggle to find anything specific to write in our notebooks. Mine has these two phrases underlined several times: "Add Skype" and "cite Constitution." Those represented the two clear policy goals I heard from the Tea Party Caucus and its members. The first came from Bachmann, who called on Speaker Pelosi to allow the use of the popular video phone service at the Capitol so that caucus members can speak to tea partiers more easily.

The second came from Rep. Steve King (R-IA), a caucus member and tea party superstar in his own right. Asked by reporters after the event what specific laws he'd offer as a legislator carrying the tea party banner into the House, King said the only thing he could think of for the moment was a law requiring members to cite the Constitution when sponsoring legislation.

"TARBALL" TAPDANCES -- An evening with Congressman JOHN LUIGI MICA --- MICA worried, places 10,000 robo calls for town meeting last night

TARBALL (Congressman JOHN MICA) with his oleaginous pal GEORGE W. BUSH

Big Oil Lobbyist DAVID MICA
Last night, starting at 7:30 PM, some 10,000 mostly St. Johns County residents received robotic telephone calls from Congressman JOHN MICA, a/k/a JOHN LUIGI MICA a/k/a “TARBALL.”
MICA’s recorded voice told listeners that he’d called 10,000 people to invite them to participate in a “Town Hall Meeting.”
Listeners could hit the zero key to queue up to ask questions.
MICA stayed on the phone line from his Washington office until just after 10 PM.
The telephone Town Meeting is the newfangled way for Congresspeople to reach out to constituents. Instead of having to put their clothes on and go somewhere, constituents sit at home and listen, some sucking on champagne.
Many of the questioners were from Ponte Vedra, a number with their noses predictably in the air.
A man who identified himself as “Bill” -- a Human Resources and Risk Manager for a company in Jacksonville -- asked MICA about illegal aliens qualifying for workers’ compensation payments. Bill complained that Florida was one of the few states that allows illegal immigrants to receive workers’ compensation.
MICA agreed it was a state law question but indicated it should be banned. “I don’t think they should be eligible anywhere in the country from any standpoint.”
The question of workers’ compensation for illegal immigrants was decided by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which held that illegal immigrants are eligible for benefits from the U.S. Department of Labor Office of Workers’ Compensation Longshore and Harbor Workers Compensation Act, upholding decisions by the U.S. Department of Labor Benefits Review Board and U.S. Department of Labor Administrative Law Judge Honorable Clement J. Kennington.
Human rights and common decency require that if a worker is injured, they be compensated. Hiring workers, injuring them and expecting to deny them compensation is immortal, indecent and depraved.
Shame on JOHN LUIGI MICA. Shame on “Bill”
MICA says he is “not a lawyer,” but he complimented a caller named Peter, who works in law enforcement, that Peter was “one of the cruelest people I ever talked to,” but MICA asked his staff to research whether felons can be denied Social Security or disability. (His staff did not know the answer – they apparently can unless they’re incarcerated, fleeing prosecution or their disability is the result of a felony or they murdered their spouse).
MICA was tired, yawning and sounding bored. Several people asked how he was feeling, saying he sounded tired. Toward the end, MICA said, “I’m getting a little frayed around the edges. I started early this morning – I really enjoy talking to people like you.”

MICA stuttered, stammered and uhhhhed his way through the evening, with a high-pitched nasal voice. MICA sounded like Ronald Reagan on a bad day, telling meaningless anecdotal stories. MICA told of one woman who was “walking her dog” who told her of a shiftless worker who, after working for her company for 30 days, immediately tried to get fired to collect unemployment.
In his own squirrelly world, MICA ducked and covered as voter after voter talked about tough times.
Sheldon from Northwest St. Johns County spoke of bankrupt, closed businesses and subdivisions with no homes. MICA said “hang in there,” saying that he and his wife moved to Florida the same way they got married, and that the economy “ebbs and flows,” saying you’re “having a pretty rough time right now,” saying of people in Washington, “I don’t think they get it.”
MICA said he voted against every economic stimulus bill, but complained that 2/3 of the money has not been spent yet, complaining of “red tape” before federal tax dollars are spent.
Gary from Ponte Vedra Beach asked about unemployment compensation extension. MICA said he was against it because of “deficit spending,” saying we are indulging in “Chinese credit card billing to our grandkids and our kids.”
Karen from St. Johns County asked who MICA was voting for and he said “the Republican nominee.”
Steve in St. Johns asked about passing a law that one’s credit rating not be increased merely because of unemployment – he was temporarily unemployed, kept paying his debts, but his credit rating was lowered because he was unemployed. MICA, who voted against the financial reform bill, tried to pretend he was on Steve’s side, asking his staff to check on possible legislation. MICA stumbled, “under the new financial reform bill, there are some provisions on consumer lending and credit issues – I don’t know if address it or not – the bill will be up for corrections in no time—Beth, make note to check bill and if it does not have that provision let me know .”
So, having voted against consumers, MICA pretended to Steve to want to help them. This is pure chutzpa.
There was a question about abortion, and MICA said “one of the most important things I do in Congress is protect the weakest in our society” (except for poor people and injured workers who happen to be illegal immigrants, apparently).
MICA allowed as how he opposes term limits (although he signed the Contract with America that sought term limits). MICA said that “when people like me go, you start all over, babbling on about “freshman, lack of institutional knowledge” and “some of the garbage they pull here … new guys can be run over, got to have a little bit of stability on the team.”
MICA said the “Founding Fathers were pretty smart people” (although he supports amending the Constitution at the drop of a hat, usually at the behest of people who want to violate human rights).
MICA said that “what’s become disgusting is the money chase,” which he said is “very difficult to change,” blaming “the Courts” (actually Chief Justice Roberts’ pro-corporate Supreme Court).
Asked about transportation, MICA complained that only 7% of federal funds go to transporation, overseen by the committee on which he is the top Republican. “I never give up. I do not give up easily,” MICA said.
Asked about the Tea Party, MICA defended it, saying it is “derided by the media, called all these bad names – I think they’re patriots.”
Cathy from St. Johns asked about H1B visas and foreigners with technical skills taking Americans’ job for less pay. MICA claimed he thought “we’d turned off the spigot.” (It hasn’t been). Then MICA bragged about getting a tip about illegal aliens working on courthouse construction in Orlando and his calling in a tip to Immigration, resulting in arrests.
MICA claimed he got “hate calls,” but that “my job is to enforce the law, not ignore it.”
Actually, MICA’s job is to write the laws, and the aging fratboy (onetime employee of his national fraternity) does a horrible of writing laws. Where it comes to our City of St. Augustine, MICA has not only not ”enforce[d] the law, he’s “ignore[d]” it, bragging on getting grants for the City of St. Augustine’s massive money-losing $25 million parking garage.
MICA whined that regulators were too tough on community banks. “FDIC hired another 500 bank examiners – they’re harassing even more of the small community banks,” MICA claimed.
MICA complained to Rep. John Boehner (House Republican leader) that House Republicans are “we’re all over the lot… we’re not getting our message out…. we do a much better job”
MICA said he had no problem with the Arizona immigration law: “I’m not an attorney – I’m just a normal businessman trying to bring in some common sense to Washington. Actually, MICA is a lying former developer who made millions bidding on cell phone auctions, winning money from speculation on government monopolies.
MICA later said that we need guest workers because there are some Americans who are unwilling to pick fruits and vegetables in 90 degree heat.
MICA said he supports repealing the health care reform bill and had signed a “discharge petition” to bring it to the floor for a vote. “I could easily support repeal,” MICA said.
MICA sniped at a recent Obama health care appointee as “a ration health care kind of guy” and lamented the number of people required to administer the national health care legislation.
Mike from St. Johns complained about Congress “sneaking” in legislation requiring small businesses to issue 1099s and said “I guess I’ll just fire someone to pay for it.” (What a lugubrious goober.). Mike asked MICA if he would support repealing that portion of the health care bill.
“Oh, yeah,” MICA said, saying “every day” he learns of some new provision in the health care bill of which he was unaware, saying he read the bill but that it makes many references to other laws and has hidden meanings.
MICA said on health care “we’ve got to do tort reform” (sic)(he means “deform) and that there are a lot of big corporations that will be willing to pay fines rather than provide health insurance, saying that perhaps this is what the Democrats intended.
Like the aging fratboy and George W. Bush crony he is, JOHN LUIGI MICA mocked the St. Johns County communities of Elkton (“you don’t want to blink”) and Fruit Cove (asking where uptown and downtown are), saying it’s “a lovely little community.”
On Amendment 6, MICA hem-hawed on about redistricting, stating (in response to Don from St. Augustine) that “I don’t have a problem with redistricting by commission – the legislature should do it, but if the people want to do it” through a Commission, that would be fine, although “I’m not in favor of an apolitical commission… – politics always enters into it even with commission.” MICA says he was “shafted” by both Democrats and Republicans on redistricting (a dig at ex-Speaker of the Florida House and now ex-Congressman Tom Feeney, who took most of MICA’s old District for a sinecure, sticking MICA in St. Johns County commencing January 4, 2003).
MICA said he’s prepared to be “shafted by a commission, too,” adding, “I may let someone else be around” for the redistricted seat. MICA said that Corinne Brown’s district is “a complete (inaudible) – it’s amazing.” He said minority legislators have a “legitimate concern” about majority minority districts.
MICA offered a few interesting aphorisms:
“Politics is a lot more interesting than anything that’s on the tube.”
MICA blasted AMTRAK as a “Soviet-style train system – we subsidize every ticket $54.80.”
IN response to Lois from Ponte Vedra Beach, MICA also endorsed nuclear power (“I’m a big nuclear fan if it can be done safely”) and danced around offshore oil drilling and oil drilling in the Everglades, never admitting or defending his support for both. “Thanks for inquiry and allowing me to rattle on,” MICA concluded his lengthy peroration.
Bonnie from Ponte Vedra Beach (who is both a special education teacher and the mother of a special needs child), questioned the controversial No Child Left Behind Act and how it has hurt her students and child. “I don’t think it’s fair that both teachers and public education are now the enemy,” she said.
JOHN LUIGI MICA patronized Bonnie like the “Pander Bear” he indeed, saying “thank you so much for your commitment to education,” saying he is “married to a public school teacher” and that his “son we wound up putting in private school last two years.” Then MICA said “No Child Left Behind is probably a pretty good law, based on accountability.”
After some two hours and 30 minutes of MICA yawning, extemporizing and boring more than 1300 of 1400 people into hanging up -- with elliptical answers from MICA on every subject, with only a few dozen of us still on the telephone line (out of 10,000 people called and 1400 who opted in), Congressman JOHN LUIGI MICA ended just after 10 PM last night, thanking everyone for letting him serve in Congress. (Not for long, we hope!)
A request for the tape recording of the Town Hall meeting to Rep. MICA’s office was not immediately answered.

JEB BUSH Shows His True Colors

Former Florida Governor JOHN EDWARD BUSH a/k/a "JEB" BUSH knows where his bread is buttered. BUSH went to work for two crooked companies (Tenet Healthcare and LEHAMAN BROTHERS) upon leaving the Governor's chair. Elect a Republican, and they go to work for Benedict Arnold corporations the minute they leave office. What do you reckon?

Huffington Post: Tenet Health Care Hires JOHN EDWARD BUSH, a/k/a "JEB BUSH" As Director for $474,500/year, for 13 days of work annually!

If you've been worried sick about what would become of ex-Governor Jeb "No Futuro" Bush since his big brother totally screwed his chances for ever being elected president, here's some great news. Jeb is now officially on the board of Tenet Healthcare, at an annual pay of $474,500--for 13 days of work per year. It's a special board seat created just for Jeb, at the suggestion of an old Bush family friend and fundraiser. (Do they even have any family friends who aren't also fundraisers?)

As calculated by TheStreet.com, Jeb stands to collect a tidy $36,500 per day. All he has to do is sit on the board of a hospital chain so ethically challenged that even the Bush administration went after them.

Tenet was forced to pay 900 million dollars to settle a Medicare fraud charge last year. They also owed 80 million in back taxes, going back more than ten years. And there was a 10 million dollar SEC settlement. Also, multi-million dollar settlements to cardiac patients who claimed they got infections after surgery because of unsanitary conditions at a Tenet hospital in Florida. And there was that FBI raid of a Tenet hospital in Redding, California, when they were accused of running an open heart surgery mill. That led to another multi-million dollar settlement (but, as always, no admission of wrongdoing). And it was a Tenet hospital in New Orleans where three people were accused of killing patients in the wake of Katrina. And if that's not enough, read here.

By the way, former US attorney Carol Lam was prosecuting a Tenet owned hospital when she as fired. The case had gone to trial but the jury failed to reach a verdict and a mistrial was declared. Alberto Gonzalez's chief of staff, Kyle Sampson, then wrote to Harriet Miers suggesting that Lam and several others be removed. Much more here at DailyKos.

When his appointment was announced, Jeb said, "As I have researched Tenet, I have been very impressed by the company's commitment to improving patient care as well as the board's commitment to strong corporate governance and transparency. I care deeply about the future of health care in this country, and I'm delighted to be affiliated with Tenet, a leading company in this field."

I guess $36,500 per day buys Jeb a big barrel of delight.

NEW YORK | Thu Aug 30, 2007 5:36pm EDT

NEW YORK Aug 30 (Reuters) - Lehman Brothers has hired Jeb Bush, brother of the President of the United States, as an advisor to its private equity business, a source familiar with the situation said.

Lehman hired another relative of U.S. President George W. Bush last year--George Walker, a second cousin, who heads up the bank's asset management business.

Jeb Bush is the former governor of Florida.

Lehman Brothers declined to comment.

Huffington Post: Dan Gainor, Right-Wing Media Critic, Offers Cash For Assault On U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson

Prominent conservative media critic Dan Gainor has offered $100 to the first member of Congress who punches "smary [sic] idiot" Alan Grayson (D-Fl.) in the nose, reports Media Matters. When fellow conservative Jim Geraghty responded (via Twitter) that Gainor should offer that $100 to Grayson's opponent instead of "financ[ing] violence," Gainor tweeted that he was joking, although he would "love to see the video."

The outburst was prompted by comments that Grayson made on the House floor last night regarding unemployment: namely, that Republican lawmakers are "taking food out of the mouths of children" and "trying to revive the America of desperate straits and cheap labor" by blocking the passage of legislation that would extend unemployment benefits. Gainor tweeted that Grayson is "a caricature of a Congressman," in addition to offering cash for a physical assault on him.

Gainor is the vice president of the Media Research Center, a $6 million-a-year organization that has been praised by Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, and Newt Gingrich, and he is often cited, interviewed and otherwise taken very seriously by Washington Post ombudsman Andrew Alexander.

But Grayson is not one to back down from a media brawl. He told HuffPost: "I think he's overlooking something important: I punch back."

Congressman Alan Grayson: Reichwingers offer $100 for someone to punch Congressman Grayson in the nose and videotape it!

They may not have a health plan. Or a jobs plan. Or a peace plan. But they do have a plan.
Here is the Republican plan:
"I'll give $100 to first Rep. who punches smary [sic] idiot Alan Grayson in nose."
That incitement to violence was tweeted yesterday, by Dan Gainor. Who is Dan Gainor? The Vice President of the Media Research Center (MRC). MRC is a right-wing Washington slur tank that glorifies Big Business in its "Business and Media Institute." It is a $6 million lie factory, blessed by Newt Gingrich, Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter.
And in case you missed the point, Gainor later tweeted, "I'd love to see the video."
Why is the D.C. Republican Establishment so angry at me? Because I stood up on the Floor of the House last night, and demanded that the Republicans release unemployment insurance. I demanded that the Republicans stop pushing people out of their homes to live in their cars, and that they stop taking food out of the mouths of children.
I'm not going to give up fighting just because they want to punch me, but I've got a tough race, and I need your help getting the money I need to win. I went on Ed Schultz's show on MSNBC to talk about all this.
Watch the video, and donate $5 or more today to make sure I'm there in 2011 to keep fighting.
This is their response. This is how the right wing does it. They pay people to clean for them, to cook for them, to drive for them, and now:
To punch for them. Or, more specifically, to punch me for them.
We knew they're crazy. It turns out that they're also lazy. Too lazy to throw a punch themselves.
So here they are, inciting violence against our elected officials. Just as they did during the healthcare debate, when many of my Democratic colleagues - and my five-year-old son -- got a death threat.
But they're forgetting something. Something very important.
We punch back. We punch back with our votes, and our voices. And we will be heard.
Watch the video and punch back with me now by donating $5 or more.
Thanks for your support.
Truth,
Alan Grayson

What the Florida AG should be doing

Check out the final judgment, below, against Republic Services, a client of DAN GELBER's former law firm, AKERMAN SENTERFITT.

Notice that several states joined in the federal antitrust lawsuit about anti-competitive practices by WAYNE HUIZENGA;s REPUBLIC SERVICES.

Florida's AG did not join with the Attorneys General of the United States and seven states (California, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Texas).

Wonder why? Our current Florida AG, WILLIAM McCOLLUM, is a known Republcan.

Sadly, Republicans (who adopted our antitrust laws in 1890) don't believe in antitrust laws -- they are handmaidens of monopoly, from sea to shining sea.

Republicans are pro-trust, pro-monopoly and pro-polluter.

If we were to elect DAN GELBER as Florida's Attorney General, do you expect him to bring antitrust lawsuits against the Who's Who of AKERMAN SENTERFITT's client list?

Do you think DAN GELBER would bestir himself and his staff to do something for what BP's Chair ineptly called "the small people," e.g., bring antitrust lawsuits under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act?

I don't reckon.

What do you reckon?

Defendants need not obtain such an agreement from the Acquirer of the assets divested pursuant to this Final Judgment.

IV. Divestitures

1. Defendants are ordered and directed, within 90 calendar days after the filing of the Complaint in this matter, or five (5) calendar days after notice of the entry of this Final Judgment by the Court, whichever is later, to divest all Divestiture Assets in a manner consistent with this Final Judgment to an Acquirer(s) acceptable to the United States in its sole discretion, after consultation with the Relevant State. With respect to the Atlanta, Georgia; Cleveland, Ohio; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and Ft. Worth, Texas areas, the Divestiture Assets in each area must be offered for sale to prospective Acquirers separately from Divestiture Assets in other areas. All of the Divestiture Assets serving any single relevant area shall be sold to the same Acquirer, unless defendants receive the prior written consent of the United States. The United States, in its sole discretion, after consultation with the Relevant State, may agree to one or more extensions of this time period not to exceed sixty (60) calendar days in total, and shall notify the Court in such circumstances. Defendants agree to use their best efforts to divest the Divestiture Assets as expeditiously as possible.

2. In accomplishing the divestitures ordered by this Final Judgment, defendants promptly shall make known, by usual and customary means, the availability of the Divestiture Assets. Defendants shall inform any person making inquiry regarding a possible purchase of the Divestiture Assets that they are being divested pursuant to this Final Judgment and provide that person with a copy of this Final Judgment. Defendants shall offer to furnish to all prospective Acquirers, subject to customary confidentiality assurances, all information and documents relating to the Divestiture Assets customarily provided in a due diligence process except such information or documents subject to the attorney-client privilege or work-product doctrine. Defendants shall make available such information to the United States at the same time that such information is made available to any other person.

3. Defendants shall provide the Acquirer(s) and the United States information relating to all personnel involved in the operation and management of the Divestiture Assets to enable the Acquirer(s) to make offers of employment. Defendants shall not interfere with any negotiations by the Acquirer(s) to employ or contract with any defendant employee whose primary responsibility is the operation or management of the Divestiture Assets.

4. Defendants shall permit prospective Acquirers of the Divestiture Assets to have reasonable access to personnel and to make inspections of the physical facilities of the Divestiture Assets; access to any and all environmental, zoning, and other permit documents and information; and access to any and all financial, operational or other documents and information customarily provided as part of a due diligence process.

5. Defendants shall warrant to the Acquirer(s) that each asset will be operational on the date of sale.

6. In the event that the Turkey Creek Landfill is not, for any reason, fully operational and capable of disposing of at least 675,000 tons of MSW annually at the time of its divestiture, defendants shall be required to divest alternative disposal assets in the Fort Worth, Texas area that are sufficient to achieve the purposes of this Final Judgment to the satisfaction of the United States, in its sole discretion, after consultation with the State of Texas.

7. Defendants shall not take any action that will impede in any way the permitting, operation or divestiture of the Divestiture Assets.

8. Defendants shall warrant to each Acquirer that there are no material defects in the environmental, zoning or other permits pertaining to the operation of the Divestiture Assets, and that following the sale of the Divestiture Assets, defendants will not undertake, directly or indirectly, any challenges to the environmental, zoning, or other permits relating to the operation of the Divestiture Assets.

9. Unless the United States, after consultation with the Relevant State, otherwise consents in writing, the divestitures pursuant to Section IV, or by trustee appointed pursuant to Section V, of this Final Judgment, shall include all the Divestiture Assets, and shall be accomplished in such a way as to satisfy the United States, in its sole discretion, after consultation with the Relevant State, that the divestiture will achieve the purposes of this Final Judgment and that the Divestiture Assets can and will be used by an Acquirer(s) as part of a viable, ongoing disposal or hauling business in each relevant area. The divestitures, whether pursuant to Section IV or Section V of this Final Judgment:

1. shall be made to an Acquirer(s) that, in the United States's sole judgment, after consultation with the Relevant State, has the intent and capability (including the necessary managerial, operational, technical and financial capability) of competing effectively in the disposal or hauling business; and

2. shall be accomplished so as to satisfy the United States, in its sole discretion, after consultation with the Relevant State, that none of the terms of any agreement between an Acquirer(s) and defendants gives defendants the ability unreasonably to raise the Acquirer's costs, to lower the Acquirer's efficiency, or otherwise to interfere in the ability of the Acquirer to compete effectively.

V. Appointment of Trustee

1. If defendants have not divested the Divestiture Assets within the time period specified in Section IV, Paragraph A, defendants shall notify the United States of that fact in writing. Upon application of the United States, the Court shall appoint a trustee selected by the United States and approved by the Court to effect the divestiture of the Divestiture Assets.

2. After the appointment of a trustee becomes effective, only the trustee shall have the right to sell the Divestiture Assets. The trustee shall have the power and authority to accomplish the divestitures to an Acquirer(s) acceptable to the United States, after consultation with the Relevant State, at such price and on such terms as are then obtainable upon reasonable effort by the trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections IV, V and VI of this Final Judgment, and shall have such other powers as this Court deems appropriate. Subject to Section V, Paragraph D of this Final Judgment, the trustee may hire at the defendants' cost and expense any investment bankers, attorneys, or other agents, who shall be solely accountable to the trustee, reasonably necessary in the trustee's judgment to assist in the divestitures.

3. Defendants shall not object to a sale by the trustee on any ground other than the trustee's malfeasance. Any objection by defendants on the ground of the trustee's malfeasance must be conveyed in writing to the United States and the trustee within ten (10) calendar days after the trustee has provided the notice required under Section VI.

4. The trustee shall serve at the cost and expense of defendants, on such terms and conditions as the United States approves, and shall account for all monies derived from the sale of the assets sold by the trustee and all costs and expenses so incurred. After approval by the Court of the trustee's accounting, including fees for its services and those of any professionals and agents retained by the trustee, all remaining money shall be paid to defendants and the trust shall then be terminated. The compensation of the trustee and any professionals and agents retained by the trustee shall be reasonable in light of the value of the Divestiture Assets and based on a fee arrangement providing the trustee with an incentive based on the price and terms of the divestitures and the speed with which they are accomplished, but timeliness is paramount.

5. Defendants shall use their best efforts to assist the trustee in accomplishing the required divestitures. The trustee and any consultants, accountants, attorneys, and other persons retained by the trustee shall have full and complete access to the personnel, books, records, and facilities of the business to be divested, and defendants shall develop financial and other information relevant to such business as the trustee may reasonably request, subject to reasonable protection for trade secret or other confidential research, development, or commercial information. Defendants shall take no action to interfere with or to impede the trustee's accomplishment of the divestitures.

6. After its appointment, the trustee shall file monthly reports with the United States, the Relevant State, and the Court setting forth the trustee's efforts to accomplish the divestitures ordered under this Final Judgment. To the extent such reports contain information that the trustee deems confidential, such reports shall not be filed in the public docket of the Court. Such reports shall include the name, address, and telephone number of each person who, during the preceding month, made an offer to acquire, expressed an interest in acquiring, entered into negotiations to acquire, or was contacted or made an inquiry about acquiring, any interest in the Divestiture Assets, and shall describe in detail each contact with any such person. The trustee shall maintain full records of all efforts made to divest the Divestiture Assets.

7. If the trustee has not accomplished the divestitures ordered under this Final Judgment within six (6) months after its appointment, the trustee shall promptly file with the Court a report setting forth: (1) the trustee's efforts to accomplish the required divestitures; (2) the reasons, in the trustee's judgment, why the required divestitures have not been accomplished; and (3) the trustee's recommendations. To the extent such reports contain information that the trustee deems confidential, such reports shall not be filed in the public docket of the Court. The trustee shall at the same time furnish such report to the United States, which shall have the right to make additional recommendations consistent with the purpose of the trust. The Court thereafter shall enter such orders as it shall deem appropriate to carry out the purpose of the Final Judgment, which may, if necessary, include extending the trust and the term of the trustee's appointment by a period requested by the United States.

VI. Notice of Proposed Divestiture

1. Within two (2) business days following execution of a definitive divestiture agreement, defendants or the trustee, whichever is then responsible for effecting the divestiture required herein, shall notify the United States and the Relevant State of any proposed divestiture required by Section IV or V of this Final Judgment. If the trustee is responsible, it shall similarly notify defendants. The notice shall set forth the details of the proposed divestiture and list the name, address, and telephone number of each person not previously identified who offered or expressed an interest in or desire to acquire any ownership interest in the Divestiture Assets, together with full details of the same.

2. Within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt by the United States and the Relevant State of such notice, the United States, in its sole discretion, after consultation with the Relevant State, may request from defendants, the proposed Acquirer(s), any other third party, or the trustee, if applicable, additional information concerning the proposed divestiture, the proposed Acquirer, and any other potential Acquirer. Defendants and the trustee shall furnish any additional information requested within fifteen (15) calendar days of the receipt of the request, unless the parties shall otherwise agree.

3. Within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the notice or within twenty (20) calendar days after the United States has been provided the additional information requested from defendants, the proposed Acquirer(s), any third party, and the trustee, whichever is later, the United States, in its sole discretion, after consultation with the Relevant State, shall provide written notice to defendants and the trustee, if there is one, stating whether or not it objects to the proposed divestiture. If the United States provides written notice that it does not object, the divestiture may be consummated, subject only to defendants' limited right to object to the sale under Section V, Paragraph C of this Final Judgment. Absent written notice that the United States does not object to the proposed Acquirer(s) or upon objection by the United States, a divestiture proposed under Section IV or Section V shall not be consummated. Upon objection by defendants under Section V, Paragraph C, a divestiture proposed under Section V shall not be consummated unless approved by the Court.

VII. Notice of Future Acquisitions

Unless such transaction is otherwise subject to the reporting and waiting period requirements of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18a (the "HSR Act"), defendants, without providing advance notification to United States and the Relevant State, shall not directly or indirectly acquire, any (1) interest in any business engaged in a relevant service in a relevant area, (2) assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) used in a relevant service in a relevant area, (3) capital stock, or (4) voting securities of any person that, at any time during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding such acquisition, was engaged in MSW disposal or small container commercial waste collection in any relevant area, where that person's annual revenues in the relevant area from MSW disposal and/or small container commercial waste collection service were in excess of $500,000 annually. For clarity, this provision also applies to an acquisition of disposal facilities that serve a relevant area but are located outside the relevant area, whether or not they are physically located in the relevant area.

Such notification shall be provided to the United States in the same format as, and per the instructions relating to the Notification and Report Form set forth in the Appendix to Part 803 of Title 16 of the Code of Federal Regulations as amended, except that the information requested in Items 5 through 8 of the instructions must be provided only about the relevant service. Notification shall be provided at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to acquiring any such interest, and shall include, beyond what may be required by the applicable instructions, the names of the principal representatives of the parties to the agreement who negotiated the agreement, and any management or strategic plans discussing the proposed transaction. If within the 30-day period after notification, representatives of the Antitrust Division make a written request for additional information, defendants shall not consummate the proposed transaction or agreement until thirty (30) calendar days after submitting all such additional information. Early termination of the waiting periods in this paragraph may be requested and, where appropriate, granted in the same manner as is applicable under the requirements and provisions of the HSR Act and rules promulgated thereunder. This Section shall be broadly construed and any ambiguity or uncertainty regarding the filing of notice under this Section shall be resolved in favor of filing notice.
