This is really important because french officials are trying to go over and see what did we miss, part of the planning and they cannot find very much when it comes to communication between the attackers.

They are going to ask for your credit card, steve, explain how this all works. Are these special kiosks. Reporter look it is christmastime. Usually only thing you get the from the ppa is Christmas Card and white and blue one by your wiper. But we are getting a christmas gift, just in time, and appropriately we showed up here at christmas village, that is opening up early, this weekend, in fact, before thanksgiving, and the announcement will be very happy news to the people that will shop here and park here because if it goes beyond a time limit on the meter, while you are shopping here in love pardoning, say your car is parked at sixth and market that far away, you can go on your phone with this new app and you can add time with your phone. You have your credit card already entered on the app a and that way you can never get a parking ticket ever again. The it is called pango. The company is. The app is meter up with the exclamation point because your meter is up, it is the idea and it will let you know when your meter is running out. It will give you a warning to add sometime or get back tour car before you ever get a ticket again. When you sign up for the app, it is really simple. Your name and a phone number. Your license plate of your car, and then a credit card information. Okay. Credit card information stored on a secured server, not related to the app, and then that is it. It takes about a minute to sign up. Once you are signed up, you can use it every where. That is awesome. I would be interested in that, yeah. It sound like something out of the future here in philadelphia, amazing. Exactly, i wouldnt have expect that for the city, it is great. If i want to reup my parking while im inside being interviewed by fox news, i just press add more time to my meter and i never have to leave. Reporter now ultra cheap people will like this as well. Why . I know it the bothers you when you put three bucks in one of these kiosks for an hour and only park for 20 minutes and donate 40 minutes to the the next guy, that irritates you this way you never again, pay for parking time you you are not using. That is other good benefit as well. I like that. It is less stress in my life too because that stresses me out. I have not had a car since 1999, so i dont necessity the deal with the kiosk. I have been to people just stand there for 20 minutes. You go to the machine and it is broken and you have to try to find another one that one is broken, you still to have pay for it. But meanwhile when you go get the the ticket they give you a ticket because you were going to try to get a ticket. Ticket on the ticket. Yes. 5dollar bill in there keeps spitting it back out. You dont like this. Make the bill flatter. Or what about this when i got my ticket. You put it in the dash but not properly displayed. I had to put it off to the side, closer to the sidewalk. Yes. Im just saying. If you stood up and looked over you would have seen it, it is all im saying. Boom, we have to get that app, to take. We like that app. Problems just keep stacking up for revel casino.

An accident on the schuylkill expressway out here in king of prussia, it is westbound schuylkill, right at the the off ramp, for 202, and then there is the king of prussia a mall, sues favorite spot there, in the background. For anybody heading wet after 476, as we head out toward king of prussia, already a delay heading out toward kop.

Mike and alex, back over to you. It is 7 16. Well, were trying to beat a different florida team what do you say. Eagles are prepping for tampa bay now after after lose to go miami on sunday. They will have to do it without sam bradford. He could miss next few days game have of separated shoulder and concussion. Mark sanchez is expect to start both games. Tony bruno is here, is what going on. Sam bradford has a concussion. We have to come in here whether we have a concussion or not the. Just dont c u. S. S. Even though you may want to. Chip kelly has said im very confident in mark chan zest. Should he be. You can play. When you throw i guy in the fire like he was in the other day but he hadnt even handed the ball off in practice to bradford Orion Matthews who is out. He a has not thrown to these receivers. These are all new guys last year. He should always be ready. I think the the play calling, i think throwing that touchdown, that interception. Bradford was playing okay. Offensive line, special teams, rose ann once said, they is always something with this team. Special teams, blocked punt, missed field goal. That is ten points off the board. We are showing good part of the game. We event up 16three. Then it fell apart in the second half. On paper mark sanchez, he did pretty well. He did. It is just that silly play call on the 9yard line. Pound it. You get the field goal you go up one and let this defense hold the game and try to win it. They had two chances, only neating a field gel to win. First interception, second one no time left and three inn completions, game over. Heres the thing, who is in the control room joe danker are you in the control room today. Di, can you do this. So they had all of the daily news sportswriters grade chip kelly a as a general manager. This looks like one of my report cards. Look at those grades. Is that a d. Cs and ds and f. C minus. Look at that. So do you agree. I dont know, shouldnt you wait until the end of the year to make that determination. I know we are negative. That loss to miami is next excusable. You could run on a team, you could not run, it the is the offensive line that played well against dallas and then they played horribly against miami. You have been up 16. That game was over. Then they kept them in the game because they had a Momentum Shift and we could not stop it. We had two passing touchdowns, called back. Exactly. Sanchez threw one that miles austin could not get to the second foot down. Then throws one to ertz because they were not set. They did everything enough to win but they made enough mistakes to lose. What about ryan matthews, what is latest with him. Concussion. Depending on how the week progresses this gets worse and worse. We have to suit up, mike. Hey thank you. That looks nice, today mike. I find you you very attractive. Heres the thing. We will talk real positive, we will beat tampa bay, we will beat detroit on thanksgiving. And then on to the white house. No, foxboro and beat patriots on their home field. Listen to me. Will we change our grades if chip kelly is able to do that. Tony, good to see you. Are you still doing your thing.
