Yo, Philly in the News

• Philly International will not see a great reduction in number of flights this fall, unlike other major cities like Las Vegas and Chicago. If you're counting on that trip to Vegas paying the heating bill this winter, better head out there now.
• Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey will hold six town hall meetings in July. Each public meeting will focus on particular neighborhoods, and residents will be asked about local problems and suggestions on making the areas safer.
• "How did they persuade the ordinarily cocky Brett Myers, his confidence eroded by nine losses and a 5.84 ERA in 17 starts, to waive the veto rights he had earned over five major-league seasons and accept a demotion to triple-A Lehigh Valley to work through his pitching problems in a low-key environment?" Good old fashioned Phillies teamwork.
• Unfortunately there's more violence to report this week: a 21-year-old man from Port Richmond was stabbed to death yesterday morning, while a suicidal shooting took the life of a man and injured a woman this morning in Frankford.
• Details on the new PA budget? We got nothing.
• There'll be lots to do this weekend (we'll let you know a few later today), but watch out if you have a few too many and get behind the wheel in the suburbs: they'll be watching you.
