First, pitchers and catchers! Yay!
Second, I do not have quiet confidence in this team. The front office frittered away about $30M in salary this offseason signing middling veteran relievers and middling position players, and that's going to come back to haunt them.
My only hope for right now is that they manage to get through spring training without signing Baker to an extension.

A skeptic might argue that something like "hitters who get on-base" should have been somewhere on that list, but its heartening to imagine that Hendry and Baker could possibly be held accountable if Scott Eyre doesn't lead us to the promised land.
Sure, but he's talking about what Dusty asked for. Dusty didn't ask for it, didn't really get. But we know Dusty doesn't really think he needs it. I like this point, and I hope the press keeps up on it.

The front office frittered away about $30M in salary this offseason signing middling veteran relievers and middling position players, and that's going to come back to haunt them.
While I agree with this, I'll take a slightly different view: The front office had many holes to fill. It also had $30MM (if not more) to spend, as well as a decent amount of minor league talent and serviceable players such as Hairston, Patterson, and Walker.
The problem was that this was the worst FA market in recent memory. For that reason, IMO, it was incumbent on Hendry to be proactive and creative this off-season -- looking both at the FAs as well as the trade markets. He did this with the Pierre deal, to some extent, but he needed to do more -- particularly in RF, but also perhaps in SS and in the MI, as well as in the bullpen and starting rotation. Don't even start with the bench. Hendry needed more than just "Plan A -- Furcal"; he needed Plans B, C, and D as well.
Hendry "frittered" away the $30MM, but this was not only because he overpaid for Howry, Dempster, Eyre, Jones, Perez, etc., but I believe it was also because he didn't seem to actively pursue other teams who may have been looking to make salary dumps or youth movements. At the end of 2004, he was looking to dump Sosa's contract on anyone who would take him -- not necessarily because he was a bad player (though he turned out that way), but for personality reasons. Hendry could have been on the other end of that this season, taking the same aggressive interest in Manny Ramirez, for instance, that he appeared to show in Miguel Tejada. Perhaps he could have matched or beaten the White Sox offer to get Javier Vazquez. Craig Wilson, while an injury risk, may still be available for the right price. Perhaps the Reds might be interested in dealing Austin Kearns for pitching. We'll never know.
In the end, Hendry had the $30MM to spend and, doggone it, he did. In that sense, he "frittered" it away when he could have spent better or perhaps not at all. Where this will "come back to haunt them," however, won't just be in 2006 -- it will be in the fact that he gave multi-year deals to most of these stiffs which will hurt the team in 2007 and 2008 as well.

Screw the WBC. That's pretty irritating, that both Cub catchers are missing most of ST.

Would the Cubs really be better off paying Manny his current salary and giving up on Matt Murton?
6. Kiko Sakata Posted: February 15, 2006 at 05:54 PM (#1863020)
Manny Ramirez used to be a rightfielder back in the day and the only positive I've really ever heard about his defense is that he's supposedly got a pretty decent arm (he had 17 assists last year, which is excellent for a left fielder, albeit fluky).
I would say so, but I can understand differently. I don't necessarily think the two are mutually exclusive, however; for all we know, the Cubs may have been able to get Ramirez and keep Murton as a bench/semi-regular.
It would have been a bold move, though; one that is largely out of Hendry's character.
8. Hendry's Wad of Cash (UCCF) Posted: February 15, 2006 at 06:03 PM (#1863033)
I'd have much rather seen Corey Patterson in CF and Manny in RF than Pierre/Jones. I think the Cubs probably could have gotten Manny for some good pitching prospects (like Nolasco and Pinto and some of the relievers they basically cut for nothing) if they agreed to take on the lion's share of the salary. Murton wouldn't necessarily have had to be included in the deal.
From everything I've heard/read, Manny's defense is an absolute joke. Still, I'd have a more visceral excitement over a team with an outfield of Manny/Corey/Murton (or whomever) than Murton/Pierre/Jones.
10. Bunny Vincennes Posted: February 15, 2006 at 06:12 PM (#1863050)
I completely agree. I think the whole thing is robustly stupid.
11. Kiko Sakata Posted: February 15, 2006 at 06:14 PM (#1863053)
From everything I've heard/read, Manny's defense is an absolute joke.
Oh, I absolutely agree. I just think that Murton-Patterson-Manny would be a much better outfield, even given his horrific defense, than Murton-Pierre-Jones. Of course, Manny would have cost more than Pierre, too (in terms of players), so it's hard to say if overall the Cubs would have been better.
12. CFiJ Posted: February 15, 2006 at 06:26 PM (#1863071)
Derrek, Michael, and Henry:
Give 'em hell in the WBC, boys!
13. Slivers of Maranville descends into chaos (SdeB) Posted: February 15, 2006 at 09:24 PM (#1863381)
That's assuming Manny would be willing to play in right. And I think the Cubs would have had to take on all of his salary.
14. Hendry's Wad of Cash (UCCF) Posted: February 15, 2006 at 09:27 PM (#1863389)
And I think the Cubs would have had to take on all of his salary.
I don't think the Cubs would have had any trouble taking on the salary. The money spent on Jones and Pierre makes up a pretty decent chunk of it, and (assuming more room was needed - there's talk that the Cubs still have money to spend but no place to spend it) forego some of the veteran relievers who are taking the place of younger guys (or guys who were DFA'd and/or traded for nothing prospects to make room on the 40-man roster). The money was there.
Jacque Jones is my new least favorite Cub.
This is what's so damn frustrating about the Cubs. Coming out of last season, their most glaring holes were OBP and the outfield, yet somehow they convinced themselves that their problems were speed and middle relief.
From what they had at the end of last season, their only really glaring hole was right field. I don't know that I'd have gone for Manny Ramirez to fill it -- he's got his problems, certainly -- but when you plug your biggest hole with Jacque Jones or, at best (worst?), a Jacque Jones / Marquis Grissom platoon, that's incredibly frustrating.
17. Fred Garvin is dead to Mug Posted: February 15, 2006 at 10:14 PM (#1863476)
I would've put Manny in LF and moved Murton to RF. He doesn't have the arm for it, but (a) his glove is better and (b) Manny doesn't have a RF arm either. Heck, I'd be tempted to put Murton in CF and Patterson in RF if I had to.
18. Sweet Posted: February 16, 2006 at 12:27 AM (#1863631)
I would have signed the best RF in baseball last year, who just happened to be a free agent. There was a price at which he would have left San Diego. OBP? Solved. Right field? Solved. Wildcard? Favorites.
19. Pops Freshenmeyer Posted: February 16, 2006 at 04:15 AM (#1863840)
I would've put Manny in LF and moved Murton to RF. He doesn't have the arm for it, but (a) his glove is better and (b) Manny doesn't have a RF arm either.
Manny's arm is quite good.
Don't fewer balls go to RF anyway? Isn't LF the place for the more mobile defender all else being equal?
20. Cabbage Posted: February 16, 2006 at 04:37 AM (#1863858)
Hey! even the likely crappiness of the cubs can't daunt my enthusiasm on Pitchers and Catchers Day. Who cares if they suck! At least they'll suck while playing baseball!
It was damn warm on tuesday and as I felt the sun on my back, I thought I smelled spring for a moment.
Baseball's comin' hide your heart girl.
21. Hendry's Wad of Cash (UCCF) Posted: February 16, 2006 at 05:03 AM (#1863875)
I would guess yes b/c I think there are more right handed hitters (and IIRC flyballs tend to be pulled).
22. The Polish Sausage Racer Posted: February 16, 2006 at 08:10 PM (#1864792)
Did Chad Fox retire like he was threatening to do? I see he's not on the 40-man roster.
23. diehard4life Posted: February 22, 2006 at 08:21 PM (#1871636)
We have so many issues, it is hard to sort them all out.
1. Excuses: Crusty has had excuses for everything. Clubhouse tension, Alou, Scammy, and his boombox are gone. Leaks 'n' snitches, Hendry has removed all Crusty's old toys and tried to replace them with baseball players. We get only spin and lies from the front office and media, of course we are dying to get real news from a player or two. So as of 2004 all the bad apples are gone. No Clubhouse Leader, We'll if Crusty gets his way, Grisom will be there. I kinda like the idea. But what we really could use is Lofton, circa 2003. He was the real deal. Leadership, and lead off singles. Bartman, I was there. I couldn't see from my angle, but like everyone else, it was apparent that this had nothing to do with anything. Alou even said that he would not have mad this play. I mean did Vegas get involved? Everyone knows Alou's muligan ball was in the Ivy, so he couldn't of even faked it.
2. Quality players: Last year I knew the platoon schmeme was not going to work. I like younger players, but did Mulletsworth or DuBois catch ANY ball hit to left before it bounced? It's not tennis is it? We need starters and bench players. They do different things. Use them correctly. We made some strides, but what happened to another REAL starting pitcher? In November Rothschild sounded like we need one. Then, we could count on Kerry, now we aren't sure again. WTF? I may have forgotten, but didn't we learn last year that catch up doesn't work unless you are Houston. I love Glendon Rusch, he is like the everyman that can also pitch pretty well. Jerome Williams has some potential. But we really needed another horse. Let's hope I'm wrong!
3. Health: No one could see Nomore's body melting down before we signed him. I know I was totally jacked when we signed him. But Prior and Wood continue to worry me. If Prior says he's OK, then let's let him play. He has perfect throwing motion right? Let's let Woody get back on track. They should have shut him down much earlier. Instead, it was the media circus. He'll never pitch in the pen. He makes too much to pitch in the pen. We're gonna try him in the pen. We need him for the penant race. What a bunch of BS. Aramis' legs worry me, I hope he comes back ready to roll.
4. Management errr uhh not: I'm not paid millions to make baseball decisions, but the toothpick chewer is. And he usually makes a no call or is too late in making a call. Like when a pitcher is starting to tire and loads up the bases. The Crusty call is usually after we have lost the game, then we through the whole damn pen at them. He's not consistent either. Last year a new trick was started. If you blow up an inning, say you don't feel well and come out. While this turned out to be true for Wood. It carried over to other guys. Remember after Remlinger's first bad spell. "oh he broke his pinky in a lawn chair." HUH?
5. WBC: On paper, this is the best idea ever. I looked into tickets, but it starts after I'm in Mesa. Now that I see who is going, this is STUPID! I think our boys deserve the honor of playing for their countries. But we have had so many injuries, I worry about loosing one of them to this sideshow. Also, We have new pitchers and pitchers that need to dial in. I also fear that with all of the above, the last thing we need is to have guys MIA for a few weeks.
6. Lies: I'm sick of all the BS from the front office. Nothing is more insulting than going to a game, watching the outcome, then walking home and hearing crap coming from the press. We are not all stupid. Let's give the fans a little credit. Are we really trying to win it all? Or are we aiming for an even 100 years? One lie that burns me is the Money lie. Suddenly, we don't have the money to get top notch guys. What about the extra 4.8 Million in bleacher ticket revenue? Add in whatever it's gonna cost for the as*clowns to rent out the batter's eye lounge. If you have a few beers, the tix should be free. Crummy Bud Scheit really costs less than 50 cents a glass. Maybe we should blame the Tribune. If we do that we could blame the LA Times which is like a cinder block attached to the Trib's neck. I mean are they selling the Cubs or not? Anyone beside Wirtz would treat us season ticket holders better. Heck, blame the fans, I have paid 28.5% more per seat this year than in 2003. And the team has done progressively worse.
All this ######## aside, I'll be headed to Mesa next week to watch whoever is playing. Spring will be around the corner and I can not wait to check out the new bleachers.
Let's stop spinning our wheels and play ball!
GO CUBBIES!

Our recipient this evening was born in the eastern United States and spent their early life there. I have it from the best of sources that at a very young age, building blocks were a favorite toy and drawing was occasionally a preoccupation. One early drawing was of a house on the rear of one of those ever-so-useful cardboard backings that came with their father's shirts. On presenting it proudly to their mother, she said it was wonderful, and then gently inquired, "but where is the bathroom?"
Our honoree has collected since an early age as many of us have. A father who collected stamps and coins passed this interest to our recipient through their special bond. A gift of appreciation for classical items and the fine arts is also a trait shared by family members and evident to this day. A gentle nature is combined with kindness and unrivaled loyalty to friends as well as dedication to household pets.
During their early school years, our recipient participated in sports, a passion continued to this day. Baseball, golf and softball remain particular favorites. School honors were also achieved with the distinction of high school class valedictorian, only a preview of things to come. Applications to many of the best colleges in the U.S. resulted in a 100% acceptance rate which provided no end of pride to parents and siblings. After graduation from Harvard and the Harvard Design School our honoree moved to southern California and joined a local architectural firm in the early 1970s.
In 1975, he returned to stamp collecting and he's been a source of unrelenting assistance to his local clubs and philatelists. He's served as a club Vice-President and hosted many, many meetings. His dedication includes providing transportation to and from meetings as well as a strong shoulder for collectors with physical difficulties or those too frail to walk even short distances. He's shared his gift of life with those less able and fully opened both his home and his heart to the hobby.
In the 1980s, he opened his own architectural firm and chose a specialized field in philately. His knowledge of U.S. postal services in general, and especially politics and history of the 1900s, has resulted in detailed in-depth research which expands our existing library of philatelic knowledge. His cooperative attitude endears him to fellow collectors and every one has only praise for his scholarly pursuits.
He maintains membership in several major societies and served on the Board of Directors for the U.S. Classics Society. He has been a Section Editor for the Classics Journal for the last 11 years, personally publishing 28 articles. His superior editing style provides authors with suggestions for research paths to enhance their articles in addition to his normal duties as Section Editor.
He's a founding member of the San Diego Exhibiting Workshop and provides novices and seasoned exhibitors with well thought-out comments. His is the voice of reason and we rely on his unbiased views as he has only one goal, the betterment of an exhibit, regardless of the exhibitor or exhibit subject. Our exhibiting community has benefited with higher medal levels after incorporating some of his insightful thoughts.
As an exhibitor, he ranks among the accomplished. His recognized strength, original research, has been rewarded time after time with gold medals for his multi-frame traditional and marcophily exhibits. National level Reserve and Grand awards and numerous specialty society awards are only part of this success story.
He's been instrumental with assistance to exhibitors building the most important U.S. Officials collections and exhibits in our country. We're speaking of exhibits earning international large gold medals as well as Champion of Champion participants and winners. This is no small feat as competition is fierce and his knowledge has proved to be the great key differentiator.
There are very few who provide so much to so many, without thought of recompense and with such modesty. I'm very honored to know this collector who shares himself and his knowledge without reserve. Please join me in welcoming the recipient of this year's Distinguished Service Award, on the day of his beloved father's birthday, Mr. Alan C. Campbell.


If you are a game developer, you might have dreamed of developing your game at some point in your career. After all, what would be more exciting than witnessing your brainchild developing with a hope that it might be the next big hit!
Big hits start to get their start from the mind of one person or few only to become the most loved and played a game of the time. However, with all these goals and dreams of creating your indie games, there come many misconceptions.
Well, developing a game completely depends on how you look it! If you have plans to develop a game like Wii U or Smash Bors, you would need more people with every member of the team using their talent to contribute in the game.
However, when it comes to developing the independent game developer, the task is even more difficult. It requires a lot more than just development skill. An indie developer would need to be a writer, tester, designer, and a lot more. In simpler words, then you will have to wear a lot more hats than just developing games.
Of course, the iOS and the Android game market is quite profitable; it doesn't mean putting up your developed game can give your huge profits. You have to realize the fact that there are millions of games on the app store, most of which end up making no profit.
Due to the nature of the app market, few titles give huge profits while others make zero success. Further, making an indie game isn't cheap for a single developer; you have to shell out bucks for everything.
If your game doesn't manage to impress gamers, don't expect to receive money. When it comes to the cash flow affecting small businesses, independent games are no exception.
While some developers are fortunate to receive a check of their game's success, some have to wait until they developed game reaches a specific number of sales or credit.
If there are only limited people who know about your game, there will only be limited players. However, to reach to the wider spectrum of audience, you have to tell them about it. This is one of the most important things that every indie game developer should follow after releasing their first title. This is also applicable if your game is not only good but one of the best and popular projects of the year.
Since many games are coming these days, pre-assuming that your game will automatically do a good business would not be enough. You have to do some studying to reach to the level where your game become popular.
There are game developers who started spreading a word about their game at the time of launch, and then there are others who start creating hype of the upcoming title and end up with success.
Of course, you can pick anyone to showcase your game, take help from social media and the internet to hype your game. Don't wait for completing your game, instead start the marketing process when the game is still in process.
So, instead of feeling low and getting discouraged because you are a novice and have just developed a game for the first time, keep up the work and reach toward your goal. While it won't take you to your dream job, you will surely get something bigger.

With a founding team consisting of Keith Bao, Truong Cao, Amy Chin, Jason Chow, and Eddie Lee, VDL began offering league play in Spring 2006 (Season 1), which became a permanent home for avid dodgeball players. VDL has now grown into the largest dodgeball league in Metro Vancouver, played across 4 nights a week including subsidiary leagues in Coquitlam (CDL) and Richmond (RDL), with over 260 teams total and surpassing 2,000 players.
The league is powered by its players. Run by a 50+ group of committed and hard-working executive volunteers, they are the backbone of the organization and all admittedly share their love and addiction to the game. Each executive contributes countless hours of work and a tremendous amount of dedication to keep the league running smoothly while simultaneously expanding it.
VDL has developed into a warm community that fosters team building, new friendships, recreational to high competition, and of course, fun, fitness, service and spirit. Each league night is filled with a unique and exciting experience shared by a multicultural group of players.
Today, VDL continues staying true to its mission to advancing the sport and building community by organizing a variety of activities, including league play, tournaments, skills clinics and pub nights!

IRS trying to aid uneasy filers
WASHINGTON (AP) — As the nation sinks deeper into recession, the IRS is offering to waive late penalties, negotiate new payment plans and postpone asset seizures for delinquent taxpayers who are fin…
WASHINGTON (AP) — As the nation sinks deeper into recession, the IRS is offering to waive late penalties, negotiate new payment plans and postpone asset seizures for delinquent taxpayers who are financially strapped, but make a good-faith effort to settle their tax debts.
IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman said Tuesday that tax agents are being given new authority to work with victims of the nation's economic woes who are struggling to pay their bills.
"We need to recognize that it's an extraordinary, challenging time," Shulman said in an interview. "We need to understand the taxpayers' perspective. We need to walk a mile in their shoes."
It's unrealistic to expect some taxpayers to make timely payments in this economy, Shulman said. However, he cautioned that those seeking help will have to demonstrate their inability to pay. Those who fail to file tax returns, or who simply ignore collection notices, will not be eligible for help, he said.
"The most important thing for people to do is to get on the phone or walk into an IRS office," he said. "The worst thing someone can do is go dark and not be in a discussion with us."
Just last month, the agency announced a program making it easier for homeowners with an IRS lien on their property to refinance their mortgages or sell their homes.
With the filing season for 2008 tax returns opening this week, the IRS expects to process 250 million returns over the next few months, including 130 million from individuals.
The new leniency program is geared toward people who have paid their taxes in the past, but who are now having facing a financial hardship. "This is not a free ride for people who can actually pay their taxes," Shulman said.
The IRS doesn't know how many taxpayers might take advantage of the new program for stretching out payments on overdue taxes or even reducing their tax liability. But millions could be eligible.
In the fiscal year ending last Sept. 30, the IRS took enforcement action against more than 3 million taxpayers. The actions included property liens and asset seizures, including homes, cars, bank accounts and garnishing wages.
This year, even more taxpayers could fall behind in their tax payments as the economy continues to sour. Record numbers of homeowners are falling behind on mortgage payments and the U.S. economy is losing jobs at an alarming rate.
Since the start of the recession last December, the economy has shed 1.9 million jobs, and the number of unemployed people has increased by 2.7 million — to 10.3 million now out of work.
The leniency program is an extraordinary step by the IRS, said Ellis Reemer, head of tax litigation at the law firm of DLA Piper. IRS agents, he said, are generally well-meaning public servants who want to work with taxpayers but are often bound by policies that limit their discretion.
"This is not a normal course of events," Reemer said. "This is an institutional determination that we are in very difficult economic times."
The program was described as the "give the tax man a heart plan," said Steve Ellis, vice president of Taxpayers for Common Sense, a budget watchdog group.
Ellis said the program makes sense given the state of the economy, but he cautioned that it should be closely monitored for consistency and fairness.
"You don't want people to get off the hook and not pay their fair share," he said. "They need to make sure that it's consistent."
The IRS is doing the same thing many private creditors are doing. She said the mortgage crisis, Wall Street meltdown and job losses have left many families unable to pay their bills, said Sharon Price, policy director of the National Housing Conference.

Times editors, columnists and contributors support the worst of US policies. They regurgitate official lies.
They abhor truth and full disclosure. They substitute managed news misinformation. They do so consistently.
They advocate business as usual. They betray their readers in the process. They do it unapologetically.
They march in lockstep with imperial lawlessness. They call aggressive wars liberating ones.They're in bed with corporate America.
They're silent about police state repression. They believe NSA spying keeps America safe.
They want Edward Snowden prosecuted. They call responsibly exposing government wrongdoing criminal.
Times history reflects complicity with US spy agencies. Articles benefiting CIA, FBI, NSA, and illicit US operations are published. It's done disgracefully. It's longstanding Times policy.
So is Iran bashing. Times editors endorse decades of ruthless US policies. They want Iranian sovereignty destroyed.
They want pro-Western governance replacing it. They want Iran returned to its bad old days. They want America's imperium advanced.
They support lawless sanctions. They're imposed for fraudulent reasons. They harm ordinary Iranians most.
Iran's a nonbelligerent country. It prioritizes peace and stability. It threatens no one. Sanctions are crimes against humanity.
The General Assembly's 1974 Charter of Economic Rights and Duties of States says no nation may use or encourage use of economic, political or other measures to coerce another country to to subordinate its sovereign rights in any way.
It specifically covers trade and financial restrictions, blockades, embargoes, and other economic sanctions. It calls them incompatible with UN Charter provisions.
They adversely affect the ability of nations to function politically, economically and socially. They harm civilians most.
C. occur primarily outside the territorial jurisdiction of the United States...."
The US Army Operational Concept for Terrorism (TRADOC Pamphlet No. 525-37, 1984) shortened the definition to be "the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to attain goals that are political, religious, or ideological in nature....through intimidation, coercion, or instilling fear."
Crimes against humanity breach fundamental international law. Civilian populations must be protected at all times.
Illegitimate sanctions harm human rights grievously. Imposing them against nonbelligerent countries violates international laws and norms.
Blockades are acts of war. Multiples rounds of sanctions targeting vital state functions have similar effects if pushed too far. Ones in place violate fundamental human rights.
They're illegal. It doesn't matter. Times editors support them. They endorse what demands condemnation.
They lie about Iran's nuclear program. It's legal. It's peaceful. It's non-military. US intelligence says so annually. Iran has no nuclear weapons program. No evidence suggests otherwise.
It wants a nuclear-free Middle East. It wants all nuclear weapons abolished. They threaten humanity's survival. Their existence is too great a danger to risk.
Complicit with Washington, key NATO partners and Israel, Times editors, columnists and contributors support Iran bashing.
They endorse red lines, timelines, deadlines, sanctions, sabotage, subversion, cyber attacks, assassinations, saber rattling, falsified IAEA hype, ad nauseam warmongering, and manipulated to fail P5+1 talks.
They feature anti-Iranian op-eds. Amos Yadlin's a retired Israeli Air Force (IAF) commander. He's a former US IDF attache. He heads Tel Aviv University's Institute for National Security Studies (INSS).
Avner Golov's an INSS researcher. He's a former IAF officer and Israeli National Security Council member.
New York Times editors gave them featured op-ed space. They did so disgracefully. They gave them a platform to lie. They let them fuel anti-Iranian sentiment.
"Is Iran finally ready to talk?" Will President Hassan Rohani "reach a deal on its uranium enrichment program?"
"(I)t would be dangerous to think that Iran's proposal for negotiations alone would pave the way for a deal. What matters is not the talks but the outcome."
Iran's nuclear program is peaceful. It's legitimate. It complies fully with Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) provisions. No evidence suggests otherwise.
Dozens of other countries enrich uranium the same way as Iran. Only the Islamic Republic is criticized. Doing so reflects double standard hypocrisy.
At issue isn't Iran's nuclear program. It's red herring cover for regime change. Don't expect Times editors to explain. Don't expect op-ed liars to do so.
Don't expect expect Israeli contributors. They endorse longstanding anti-Iranian policy. Priority's given to Israel's Greater Middle East agenda. At issue is eliminating key rivals.
It's expanding Israeli territory. It's making Israel the sole regional hegemon. It's waging imperial wars to do so.
Yadlin and Golov want Iran denied its legitimate rights. Lies substitute for truth and full disclosure.
"Whoever negotiates with Iran," they say, "must acknowledge that the enrichment of uranium from a low level (3.5 percent to 19.75 percent) to weapons-grade level (90 percent) is only one of three dimensions of Iran's nuclear strategy."
"A second dimension is Iran's progress toward a quick 'breakout capability' through the stockpiling of large quantities of low-enriched uranium that could be further enriched rapidly to provide weapons-grade fuel."
"Third, Iran also appears to be pursuing a parallel track to a nuclear capability through the production of plutonium."
"If there is going to be a nuclear deal with Iran, all three parts of its strategy must be addressed."
They want Iran's legal nuclear program compromised. They want the Islamic Republic returned to its bad old days.
They want its sovereign independence destroyed. They want another regional vassal state.
They claim Iran's able to build a bomb in months. They falsely suggest Tehran plans doing so.
"Any agreement must ensure that an Iranian breakout is detected quickly enough to allow for a Western response - meaning that the international community must be able to uncover any concealed facilities and activities for the production of fissile material."
"A solution will also have to address the potential for a plutonium bomb." In early 2014, its heavy-water Arak reactor's expected to become operational.
"Some American and European officials claim that Iran could produce weapons-grade plutonium next summer."
"These two announcements indicate that Iran is making progress on this alternative track."
"So far, the West has not paid much attention to the potential for a plutonium-fueled weapon. Now it must do so."
"A functioning nuclear reactor in Arak could eventually allow Iran to produce sufficient quantities of plutonium for nuclear bombs."
"Western negotiators should instead demand that Iran shut down the Arak reactor."
Iranian nuclear facilities operate legally. So will Arak. It's not being built to be shut down. Doing so's non-negotiable.
Yadlin and Golov want "Western leaders (to) maintain their current leverage - sanctions and a credible military threat - and ensure that any future agreement with Iran addresses all three dimensions of Iran's nuclear program."
"Moderate messages from Tehran should not be allowed to camouflage Iran's continuing progress toward a bomb."
Yadlin and Golov represent US/Israeli imperial interests. They want Iran neutralized. They want vassal governance replacing its sovereign independence. They want what they won't get.

Methadone is a synthetic opiate primarily used for the treatment of narcotic addiction. It was originally synthesized by German pharmaceutical companies between 1937-1939. By 1947, methadone was approved as a painkiller in the USA and is still occasionally used for pain relief. Methadone is a class A drug and is illegal to obtain without a prescription. It comes in liquid and tablet form to take orally or is sometimes prescribed as injectable ampoules.
The side effects of methadone are similar to other opioids including the development of tolerance and physical and psychological dependence. People who take it for the first time may become sick and get constipated. The effects can last 24-36 hours which are longer-lasting than morphine based drugs.
There are numerous health risks and life-threatening dangers when taking methadone. During the first 24-72 hours of taking methadone or anytime the dose is increased it can cause severe breathing problems that can be fatal. Some users may experience a prolonged QT interval which can cause an irregular heartbeat, fainting or sudden death.
Mixing alcohol, other medications or street drugs with methadone increases the risk of experiencing life-threatening side effects.
A physical dependency to methadone will develop for anyone using it regularly and if a person tries to quit, he or she will experience withdrawal symptoms similar to other opiates. The withdrawal period can be longer than with other opiates lasting anywhere from two weeks to several months. Some users who have experienced both heroin and methadone withdrawal symptoms have said that methadone withdrawal symptoms are worse than heroin withdrawal symptoms.
Women who use methadone while pregnant may cause their baby to experience life-threatening withdrawal symptoms after birth. This drug increases the chances of a miscarriage, stillbirth or premature birth which can lead to serious health issues. Contact your physician in the case that you become pregnant while taking methadone. Stopping methadone abruptly while pregnant can put your baby's life at risk.
Methadone is used to relieve pain in people for a long period of time and for people who can't use other medications.
It is also used as a maintenance treatment for opiate addicts which is referred to as Methadone Maintenance Treatment. It is supposed to prevent withdrawal symptoms in individuals who are addicted to opiate drugs. Although people are able to quit other opiate drugs, they develop another addiction for methadone that has its own side effects.
Watch methadone recovery success videos.
Many people who thought they had to continue taking methadone for the rest of their lives found a way out at Narconon Fresh Start. We provide a true recovery program that address all aspects of addiction.

I have decided to start a monthly blog post sharing a few "short-but-sweet" personal facts of where I am with my life right now! I split this in sections to keep it brief and hopefully interesting, trying to find connections with you out there sharing a similar mindset! Hope you enjoy!
to be returning to London after what seems like a lifetime. London was my home for 8 years and since I moved back to Greece in 2009 and with work plus my 2nd home in Paros, my visits have become more scarce. So I am spending a whole week in London, seeing good friends, visiting museums, taking long walks in the park, eating at my favorite places and I am oh so excited about the Dior Exhibition at the V&A museum!!
To be totally honest I have been feeling blue since the holidays ended and January is a very long and heavy month. So I wanted to devote some time to myself and focusing on being well inside and out. I have started Pilates again more regularly, invested on weekend naps and walks in nature. I planned a sisters massage session, to spend some time with my sister, went to the salon for general maintenance and devoted some well-deserved time in face, feet and hand masks!
to get as much work done. Each year when we enter January, it seems like the countdown is on and the rush to get tasks completed is a priority. This does result in a heavy workload during the first long month of the year and a significant amount of stress however I am keeping positive that we are making progress and building up our projects step by step each day!
I am ashamed to say that I have given up on Michele Obama's Biography for the time being as I need a fiction novel to help my mind wonder. Reading about love stories during WWII has been helping me escape from reality, and mind travel to different countries, times and circumstances when survival and love were the center of people's lives.
This is my favorite task of this job, starting to compile décor proposals for my couples. Lots of exciting ideas are coming through, we will be seeing a lot of color this year a lot more upscale events so although this is something new to me I am up for the challenge and already dreaming about the days when our plans become a reality!
that I hate to say I have been neglecting over the past months. One of the downsides of the seasonal nature of this job is that we are MIA during the summer months, trying to recover during autumn and then from December – April trying to do everything that we have neglected over the past months. I have been lucky to have true frineds that understand the reality of my job but I am making it a priority now to devote my time to them.
To be parting with my 1stcar, my dusty blue Fiat 500 after 9 years. I managed to sell it last week to a wonderful couple who lost their car in the wildfires in Greece last July. And expecting my new car, a largest version of the Fiat500 hoepfully in a few weeks to start some new adventures with!
Happy rest of the month everyone !


Ways to lose weight n.o eight: Ok there is some debate about raspberry leaves helping you lose weight.
And due to the fact that little to no research has been done the dieting aid is still in question.
Used as a diuretic, stops cravings of sugar and empty carbs and deaden appetite.
I've read some of the claims: one woman was able to drop caffeine and keep her cravings under control.
Many times that's way over half of the battle when dieting.
If you can control craving and have a satiating feeling after a meal you are going to lose weight.
So, give the raspberry leaves a try.
Otherwise you have wasted $20 USD.
Drink it as a tea, one bag per 8 0z cup before a meal, any where from 1/2 hour or and hour prior to eating a meal.
If cravings is a real issue with you, drink the tea with snacks as well.
Ways to lose weight are not limited and raspberry leaves is a bi-product when dieting with other forms of dropping pounds...like calorie counting.
It's not a do all end all.
The leaves should be combined with other simple but effective ways to lose weight.
Don't just stick with one thing, try many.
Then use only those products that assist weight loss.
Rather than starving yourself with a diet you know will fail you in the long run.
Use all of these tricks and more and eventually you'll be at the weight you want to be at.
Start thinking outside of the box then and only them will you get to the weight you're supposed to be.
Yo-yo dieting is not a place to be in because you'll be fat when it's gravely important to have less weight on your body...when approaching old-age!
Ways to lose weight no. 8 try the raspberry teas.
