...Minor League Co-Pitcher of the Year last September after a 58-game relief stint with Class A Western Michigan. Birtwell went 7-2 with a 1.59 ERA and struck out 101 batters in 79.1 innings… With Lentz back in the lineup and a sudden, unprecedented logjam at catcher, Walsh has worked Mann out at first base and Lentz in left field to make a platoon situation possible… The Crimson will open its season during spring break against several Florida teams, then begin its home campaign against Rhode Island on April...
...wireless industry's recent Tower Summit and Trade Show in New Orleans. "Wireless companies have already paid the Federal Government over $20 billion for licenses that are tied up in local disputes," lamented Laura Altschul, government affairs director for T-Mobile USA. "We need to break the logjam in residential areas." To speed the process, the Bush Administration is trying to give the industry unfettered access to the public right of way. Municipalities could lose control over tower siting along major roads, but it's unlikely that citizens will have no say in what happens along the edges of their...

But the most forceful advocates of attacking Iraq, such as Defense Policy Board chairman Richard Perle, reject the notion that calming the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a prerequisite for attacking Iraq, arguing instead that removing Saddam's regime will break the logjam in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It's not an argument that resonates anywhere in the Arab world, but the neo-cons have little patience right now for Arab reservations...
...logjam won't be broken without a concerted international push, and the Bush administration has signaled it has no intention of weighing in. That could change, of course, if violence once again spirals to levels that foment crisis in Arab capitals and threatens to turn regional allies against an invasion of Iraq. But as of now Washington's preconditions for moving to Palestinian statehood have essentially put the peace process on the backburner...
