It's been a whirlwind of a week in Boston.
The Red Sox part ways with their manager and everyone wants to know the dirt inside the clubhouse.
The Patriots are 3-1 with a defense leaking more than a Cape House roof following a Nor'Easter.
And the Bruins are the feel-good story of the year. They raised their banner and got their just rewards – brand new Stanley Cup champion rings.
For the second straight year, Boston College football is in dire straits but this time there may not be a lot of hope on the horizon for a turnaround like 2010.
Plenty to discuss as I empty my mind into the Trags Bag:
Let's start with the good.
Aside from a few minor appearances in the gossip pages, the Bruins have handled their first summer with the Cup since 1972 like a team that is happy but not satisfied with its crown. The perfect mix.
This all comes from the very top. Cam Neely is fulfilling his role as team president perfectly, establishing a mentality of toughness that mirrors the way he played, and everyone in the organization is on board with that.
That is precisely the problem with the Red Sox. The message from the top of the organization is confused. On one hand, you have an owner who has poured over a billion dollars into rejuvenating the franchise over the last decade, whether it's payroll, upgrading Fenway Park or branding its TV network. But the overriding message at Fenway is that entertainment has become more of a priority than the baseball product on the field. (See my final rant below).
It's why Theo Epstein left briefly after the 2005 season. And it's why he may be out the door again for good now.
The Patriots, while a billion-dollar sports franchise, never let entertainment drive the football product on the field. Bill Belichick's three Super Bowl rings long ago assured that.
As I will every week, I'll take questions from my loyal followers on Twitter and address their questions in the Trags Bag. You can also reach me at email@example.com and on Google+. If you have a question – off the wall or not – I want to hear it.
Into the Bag:
@jboston19 writes: @Trags does spaz last the season?
Yes, AD Gene DiFilippo doesn't want to kick the guy to the curb in the middle of a lost season anyway. While the lack of depth on the roster is his responsibility in recruiting, the incredible number of bad breaks (i.e., transfers and injuries) at the start of the season is out of his control.
More to the point, Boston College needs some semblance of stability. The only way this changes is if somehow there's a coach out there available to step in and help with the recruiting in mid-season. Don't think that's the case.
@BostonRocks asks: @Trags Lets face it Mike. The Patriots have a terrible defense right now. Is it fixable?
Yes, It's fixable if the level of play of their secondary steps up, namely Devin McCourty and Patrick Chung. Bill Belichick went into the season expecting a lot of these two young players, which explains his release of James Sanders as the best cover safety on the roster. There were going to be growing pains and the first four weeks have left the Patriots plenty sore.
This looks like the defense from the real bad Patriot teams of the past. Is there any hope?
Ah, now that's the more interesting and relevant question. Right now, with injuries to Jerod Mayo, Albert Haynesworth and Mike Wright, there's no play-making depth to speak of. The Patriots may get Haynesworth back this week, or maybe not. Same with Wright, as both returned to practice on Thursday. My concerns on the D have to do with the age of the defensive line as Haynesworth's back acts up, Shaun Ellis' knees require more "maintenance" and Wright's concussion requires close monitoring. The other players who need to step up are the safeties. It's not been a good two weeks for Sergio Brown and Josh Barrett, the two players called upon to replace Sanders and Brandon Meriweather.
@medicallyminded asks: @Trags Odds that Aaron Hernandez plays this week?
I'd have to say under 50 percent, well under. With the Patriots offense rolling and the bye week coming up in two weeks, hard to see why the Patriots would take a chance on a knee injury that was initially expected to take 4-6 weeks to heal. That would take us comfortably through the bye. All of which means it'll be a fascinating story when Hernandez returns Sunday and catches 10 passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns.
My final rant:
So this is what happens when you're more worried about putting fans in the seats and getting eyeballs on your team-owned television network than you are putting a sound team on the field.
Sure, general manager Theo Epstein and skipper field Terry Francona took their share of the blame pie.
But the September meltdown of epic proportions lies squarely at the feet of John Henry and ownership.
And to their credit, Henry and Larry Lucchino answered all the tough questions on WEEI on Friday morning with Dennis & Callahan.
The Red Sox have been ultimately concerned about image and marketing and the success of their 'brand,' and the 2011 Red Sox is what happens when you do at the expense of baseball operations on the field. It's why Theo left in the first place after 2005 and why he now might leave for good this winter.
It was widely known that NESN - the Red Sox' own network - wanted/needed to make a splash to keep interest/ratings in the team at a ridiculously high level because the financial margin of error is next to nil. The theory goes: Red Sox ownership sent out a directive to Epstein to go out and make a splash with high marquee names.
Theo did the best he could last winter. But it came with a big price tag. They overpaid Carl Crawford in a seven-year, $142 million deal that nearly every veteran baseball executive laughed at when it was announced last December. It was a flashback to 2007 when they brought in Daisuke Matsuzaka and J.D. Drew for a combined $170 million commitment on two players who never consistently met their expectations in Boston.
Theo made a very bright and shrewd trade for Adrian Gonzalez and then guaranteed that he will be a franchise cornerstone for years to come with a seven-year, $154 million extension. The issue of Gonzalez' ability to handle the pressure of Boston long term is still up in the air after his post-game address to reporters after Game 162 when the collapse was complete.
John Henry fancies himself an owner who knows baseball. In the end, he and his general manger relied on a faulty computer system that spewed out faulty data.
Henry, with the help of Larry Lucchino and Janet Marie Smith, did the absolutely improbable and made an antiquated Fenway an enjoyable place to watch and play baseball. Henry, Lucchino and Tom Werner put the money in the pot to revitalize a franchise that badly needed it in 2002.
Now, they just need to show Red Sox fans they can put all of those resources into players who can produce and handle another image makeover this winter.

MILWAUKEE (AP) - Jose Bautista's three-run homer capped a five-run sixth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays outslugged Milwaukee 9-5 Wednesday, snapping the Brewers' five-game winning streak.
Bautista hit a 1-2 pitch from reliever Brandon Kintzler into the Brewers' bullpen in right field. The homer made a winner of R.A. Dickey (10-12), who gave up five runs in 5 2-3 choppy innings.
Dickey left after Carlos Gomez's two-run homer in the bottom of the sixth made it 7-5.
Colby Rasmus also homered for Toronto, which outhit the NL Central leaders 15-10.
Jimmy Nelson (2-4) took the loss after allowing the first two runners to reach in the sixth.

Know Your Herbs
Herbs can be very striking visually, but they also possess many other characteristics that may remain hidden unless you get to know your plants' secret talents.
To unlock the hidden talents of your herbs, it is important to think before you plant. A plant growing in the wrong place, or under duress, will never perform well, so get to know herbs and the soil and site you have to offer, before you buy. A little bit of groundwork before you plant can pay huge dividends later, both in the looks of envy from neighbors and friends, as well as in the simple pleasure you will get from having herbs flourishing in your garden.
Scented Herbs
Flowers with scent are a great attraction to bees and butterflies, but leaves can also be used, fresh or dried, as a pleasant perfume. The essential oils that produce these aromas are at their most concentrated when the herbs are grown in a hot sunny location and it is worth planting a few favorites in a raised bed or basket so they can be stroked or gathered in passing. Not all herbs are sweet smelling and some can even be used as an insect or cat repellent.
Calamintha nepeta
Chamaemelum nobile 'Treneague'
Helichrysum italicum
Hamamelis mollis
Jasminum officinale
Lavandula angustifolia
Lonicera periclymenum
Monarda didyma
Rosmarinus officinalis
Flavorful Herbs
Herbs are generally best used freshly gathered. Intensity varies considerably, so only use a little at a time to begin with. Leaves are not the only parts that can be eaten whole or added to dishes as a seasoning. Many flowers have a unique and subtle piquancy while roots and stems are prepared in many inventive ways. Try nasturtium petals in a salad or horseradish sauce, but always remember to only eat herbs that you can positively identify as an edible variety.
Artemisia dracunculus
Coriandrum sativum
Foeniculum vulgare
Laurus nobilis
Mentha citrata
Ocimum basilicum
Origanum vulgare
Salvia officinalis
Thymus citriodorus
Medicinal Herbs
Medicinal remedies have been gleaned from herbs for centuries and many pharmaceutical medicines are made from plant sources. Mints, chamomile, and even Adiantum (the maidenhair fern) make very pleasant teas from freshly gathered leaves or flowers and can be safely self-administered in moderation. However, many tinctures, infusions, and tisanes of proven benefit in homeopathy and aromatherapy should only be used under the supervision of a qualified herbalist or doctor.

Hanging Herb and Vegetable Basket
Having a hanging basket filled with herbs and tomatoes is convenient and easy. Learn what you need to to have your own.
Feeding Herbs
All plants need sustenance to keep them healthy and herbs are no different. Soil and potting compost tire quickly and regularly need replenishing or feeding.

Plants can be expensive and identical cultivars difficult to source, but increasing your own stock or growing new varieties is not difficult and is very rewarding in exchange for a small amount of financial outlay.

Quite a kick in the head! Gary Barlow barely comments on Sam Callahan's X Factor performance as Big Band Night hots up
The pressure was on for young Sam Callahan on Saturday evening when he took to the stage for that he hooped was a rousing performance on Big Band Night.
Unfortunately for the teenager, his X Factor rendering of Sammy Davis Jr hit Ain't That A Kick In The Head left the judging panel divided on Saturday night – and garnered his worst response yet from Gary Barlow.
Indeed, as the performance came to an end the Take That front-man offered a noncommittal critique.
Scroll down for video
Hopeful: Sam Callahan hoped to win the judges over on Saturday night
'You look like you enjoyed it up there, well done,' he murmured.
'Why no comment? Asked a bemused Dermot.
'I have to respect you for getting up there,' he said. 'Look at the amazing singers we've had tonight, I respect you for getting up there.'
Quite a show: But Sam's performance would win him mixed responses from the judges on Saturday evening
Kick in the head: Sam works his way through a colourful performance of the Sammy Davis Jr classic on Saturday night
Centre stage: Sam works his way through another performance
Still smiling: Sam remains upbeat despite a negative response from Gary Barlow
Despite the cold response self-confessed swing fan Sam left the stage with a smile, but while his performance won generally negative comments it was a different story for Tamera Foster.
Indeed, as Big Band Night got into full swing, she took to the stage with a rendition of Cry Me A River, the much covered classic originally sung by Julia London.
The young singer was turning in her latest performance after admitting her appearance in eeh bottom two last week had knocked her confidence.
'You've got a God given voice,' said Sharon. 'You've only go one voice, use it.'
'That performance was absolutely mesmerising, added Nicole. 'I'm just so grateful that the judges saved you last week.'
Low on confidence: Tamera Foster was hoping to impress the judges after finding herself in the bottom two following Disco Night
Cry me a river: Tamera performed a classic on Saturday night's swing themed X Factor
Swing when you're winning: The 16-year-oldd performed with a live band on Saturday's show
Hopeful: Tamera aimed to win over the general public following last week's disappointment

By Paul Brenner on Friday 16th November 2007
Based upon the 2006 rape of a 15-year-old girl and the murder of her family by a group of American troops in Mahmoudiya in Iraq, the film bears more than a passing resemblance to Casualties of War, his exploitative examination of a similar incident during the Vietnam War. In fact, it is Casualties of War.
But in the re-treading, De Palma has re-conceptualized Casualties of War by conveying his story dramatically through multimedia recreations of soldiers' video diaries, a French-narrated documentary, CNN and Al Jazeera inspired news segments, web videos, night vision video, security camera videos, video blogs, one way mirror psychological observational videos, and iChat sessions -- all based on actual blogs and video streams found on the Internet. It is YouTube style utilized to condemn itself. There is no denying De Palma's howl of rage, but it all becomes another exercise in mannerism for De Palma, the fictionalizations demeaning the original video web clips by draining away their immediacy for the sake of shoehorning it into his Casualties of War remake.
Any kind of anti-war statement De Palma wants to make against this horrible sinkhole war in Iraq is tempered by distancing devices. De Palma once again totes out the director tributes -- in this case we get the Joseph H. Lewis of Gun Crazy, the Sam Peckinpah of The Wild Bunch (the ants eating the scorpion), and, above all, the Stanley Kubrick of Full Metal Jacket (what else?) and Eyes Wide Shut (and even "Saraband" from Barry Lyndon). Again, the parlor game.
De Palma doesn't stop there. He is helpless with his cast of unknowns, who play their roles as if trying out for a high school production of Bury the Dead. But sometimes the actors are not all to blame. As a screenwriter, De Palma continually overstates his case with his cast spending most of their screen time declaiming -- in a moment out of Brecht, De Palma has one of the recruits utter the obvious by explaining, "Our own band of brothers are losing our moral compass and trying to wreck vengeance on a 15-year-old girl." (De Palma is even preparing one-sentence movie summaries for the Sunday supplement television listings.)
Many critics have recently taken to task filmmakers like De Palma and Paul Haggis (In the Valley of Elah) for jumping on the anti-war bandwagon after the winds of change have safely shifted -- where were these guys in 2002? But it doesn't really matter, though, since these Iraqi war films have nothing specifically to do with the Iraq War itself, they just regurgitate bromides about the evils of war and the emotional effects of war has on the humanity of the soldiers and their families (the films could just as well be about the Korean War or the invasion of Italy) serving merely as salves to sooth the guilty consciousnesses of Americans who should have spoken out loud and clear five years ago.
But De Palma has taken all of this one step further -- with Redacted he has created war porn for the cognoscenti.
Needs more black bars.

Gift or Warning?
Bizarrely marked pencil suspiciously placed on my desk
By Summer Olsson [ Thu May 26 2011 3:03 PM ]
When I arrived at work today, there was a strange item smack in the middle of my desk. It was a pencil, but not one I had used or left there. It is a near-perfect number 2, unsharpened with an only slightly used eraser. But near the business end, there are three deep, narrow, perpendicular grooves, equally spaced and cut down to the lead.
What does this mean? Who left this pencil for me to find? What were they trying to communicate? Is it someone who, as a coworker suggested, is harboring a secret, tormenting crush on me and has to chew up pencils? Doubtful. The grooves are too small and regular to be caused by normal human teeth. Is someone trying to send me an ominous message? Confuse me? Make me waste time writing this blog?
Admittedly it's not as bad as a dead bird left by your cat, or a horse head left by the Godfather. But it's freaking me out. Who are you, mystery pencil leaver?!

Minn. chief asks FBI to examine tape of arrest
By David Chanen and Rochelle Olson
Star Tribune
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Minneapolis Police Chief Tim Dolan said today he will ask the FBI to investigate an incident in which a squad car video captured police punching and kicking a man as they tried to arrest him in February after a stop for speeding.
"The kicking is troubling to me," Dolan said after watching the video early today. "The public will want an investigation."
Jenkins was stopped by Minneapolis police at 3 a.m. Feb. 19 on Penn Avenue N. for allegedly going 15 miles per hour over the speed limit.

Post Racial America?
For the better part of his time in the national spotlight, the current White House occupant, with a major assist from obedient "progressive" Party Pravda puppies so eager for approval from their anointed one they have adopted criminally negligent journalistic practices, has meticulously hidden his racist self.
Obama's appointee for Attorney General Eric Holder, the man who said when it comes to race America is a nation of cowards, stopped a very clear cut case of voter intimidation by the New Black Panther Party dead in its tracks.
The Department Of Justice did not prosecute the New Black Panthers for voter's rights violations, but they did sue the State of Arizona for enforcing border security.: They have sued states to stop enforcement of voter ID laws.
The hypocrisy is palpable.
Welcome to Barack Obama's post racial America.
Republican Civil Rights Leader Martin Luther King must be rolling in his grave.
Where applicable, thank God he gave you enough grace, intelligence and common sense to remain open to hearing both sides, uncover the truth and see through the fraud that is Barrack Hussein Obama.: You were able to use your God given cognitive abilities to evaluate and judge him not by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character.
You can proudly say that you never voted for him.
For those who were fooled by Obama into voting for him in 2008, forget it.: You cannot undo that vote.
But you can avoid making that unfortunate mistake twice.

Thousands of students protested against education cuts on Wednesday.
On the second day of a three-day secondary school strike, University students joined in to protest against the rise in tuition fees and the reduction of scholarships.
The measures are part of the country's austerity package designed to reduce the public deficit.
Irene a 21-year-old student said:
"It is shameful the same people have to pay for someone elses fraud. So we are here to demand that we have the right to education because every year workers pay tax for a public education and public health."
The debt crisis has hit the young hard in Spain, where more than 50 percent of 19 to 25-year-olds out of work.
Protests continue to mount as concerns grow that the government might soon need to seek European aid to get its borrowing costs under control.

Cancer fight forces Cardinal George to cancel travel to canonisations
10 April 2014 16:34 by Abigail Frymann Rouch
Chicago's Cardinal-Archbishop Francis George will not travel to Rome for the 27 April canonisations of Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II after taking medical advice, the archdiocese said on Tuesday.
Last month the cardinal, 77, announced he had been given a new cancer diagnosis and received two doses of chemotherapy, one of which led to him requiring hospitalisation.
Pope John XXIII appointed George a bishop and Blessed John Paul II made him a cardinal.

Postman Pat: The Movie
- Review Date: June 25, 2014
- Rated: NR
- Genre: Family and Kids
- Release Year: 2014
- Running Time: 88 minutes
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Postman Pat: The Movie is a feature-length film based on the popular British preschool show Postman Pat. The movie, like the show, promotes emotional development, friendship, and community bonds, as well as the idea that close personal friendships are more important than fame and fortune. Preschoolers will be encouraged to participate in their community, acknowledge public servants, and be kind and courteous to others. Older kids may recognize the similarity between the reality show in the movie and talent series like X Factor and American Idol.
User reviews

What's the story?
POSTMAN PAT: THE MOVIE follows the lovable Pat Clifton (voiced by Stephen Mangan) on a feature-length adventure that takes him from his small village of Greendale to the big city of London. Pat promises his wife, Sara (Susan Duerden), that they'll use his annual bonus for a belated honeymoon, but his plans are foiled when budget cuts mean no bonuses for anyone. Desperate to still make Sara's dreams come true, Pat tries out for the reality talent show You're the One, hosted by the overly critical Simon Cowbell (Robin Atkin Downes, doing a Simon Cowell impression). As Pat faces tough singing competition from handsome singer Josh (Rupert Grint), a Draco Malfoy-esque exec uses the opportunity to release a robot postman prototype (a Pat replica) in Greendale.
Is it any good?
Little kids familiar with the Postman Pat series will enjoy spending more time with the inhabitants of the small village of Greendale, as well as cheering Pat on as he competes in the You're the One competition (Pat's singing voice is Irish singer-songwriter Ronan Keating). Adults will appreciate some of the parent-friendly humor, the Cowell impression, and the performances by Grint and David Tennant, who plays Josh's fame-hungry dad/manager.
Although the computer-generated animation isn't nearly on par with big-budget animated features by Blue Sky or Pixar, Postman Pat: The Movie is still a sweet, charming story about what happens when you start prioritizing fame or efficiency above relationships and human connection, respectively. And the earnest humor makes this British import a lot of fun to watch with little ones.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about how Postman Pat changes throughout the movie and why he loses sight of what he initially set out to do. What are we supposed to learn from Pat's experiences?
Why didn't the town like the robot postmen? How is the real Pat irreplaceable?
Does the movie make you more interested in the Postman Pat show?

We know Google has an Android event scheduled for October 29—invites went out last week—but we don't know exactly what the company has planned. The folks at The Next Web claim to have a pretty good idea, though. They say a "source with knowledge of Google's plans" tipped them off to pretty much every item on the agenda.
Among those items: a new version of Android, numbered 4.2, and a Nexus-branded tablet with a 10", ultra-high-density display. Word is that this "Nexus 10" tablet will be built by Samsung and will feature an impressive 2560x1600 display resolution. That would work out to a pixel density of 300 PPI, substantially higher than the new iPad's 264 PPI. (The Apple tablet has a 9.7" screen with a 2048x1536 resolution.)
There are no details about the Nexus 10 tablet's exact specs. However, driving that kind of a screen may not require anything stupendously powerful. Nvidia demoed its Tegra 3 SoC streaming 1440p video to a 2560x1600 panel all the way back in February 2011, when Tegra 3 was still known by its code name, Kal-El.
The Next Web claims Google will also unleash a new Nexus phone, the LG Nexus 4, as well as two 32GB versions of its existing, Asus-produced Nexus 7 tablets at the event. One of those 32GB Nexus 7 models will feature HSPA+ connectivity, while the other will just have plain-old Wi-Fi.

This is a great little Cathedral. I was especially struck by the custom embroidered kneeler pillows on the back of each chair. There seemed to be no two alike.
My family of three (2 adults & 1 teenager) visited St Anne's mid-afternoon on a Wednesday in early June. When we walked through the door, we were immediately approached (accosted) by a volunteer who informed us that we couldn't go beyond the entrance of the cathedral without paying the £5 per person fee.
The purpose of our visit to the...
There is no charge for anyone attending St Anne's for worship or prayer and the Chapel of the Holy Spirit is freely available to visitors before they reach our Welcome Desk, so we are sorry you felt pressured into paying the admission charge. We would love to give free access all the time to our beautiful building but as you...
We are glad you enjoyed your visit. The kneelers are indeed quite unique! There are around 1,000 in the Cathedral and each is different and handmade by a member of the congregation based upon the theme of unity.
I visited St. Anne's as my great-grandfather was baptized there. I was surprised that none of the original structure remained, and that it was heavy on war flags. For some reason there was an American flag as well.
I was also surprised to see that Edward Carson was buried there, in the plainest tomb I've seen.
Rather dour.
I went into this cathedral on Sunday afternoon to have a quiet place to sit and pray.. I wasn't allowed in unless I gave them £5. They should be ashamed..
There is no charge for anyone attending St Anne's for worship or prayer. We regret that there was any misunderstanding about this on the day of your visit. John Mann (Dean)
As it was raining on Saturday morning, my friend, Jane Glen, and I opted to visit the Cathedral which we had spotted on our way to our hotel, which was just around the corner. We loved it, it is a beautiful church with some amazing artefacts, including the Titanic Pall and some beautiful mosaics.
We are delighted you enjoyed your visit to St Anne's.
Beautiful old cathedral inside and out, we used the hop on hop off bus, great way to get around and visit all of the sites efficiently, not to pricey
An impressive building exterior and interior with some interesting things, like St. Patrick's landing paint. Unfortunately, for a complete tour is paid a fee (5 pounds), which I refused to pay, preferring to take photos only in the free part.
St. Anne's cathedral is near the city centre of Belfast. The cathedral is easy to find and is a very big building.
There are opening and closing times so the visitor is advised to check before visiting.
The inside of the cathedral are very peaceful and calm, the silence kind of invigorates the spirit and induces gratitude. The various mosaic...
This is a lovely cathedral which opens its doors to the public for visits. Furthermore, the staff within are very welcoming. Well worth a visit if you have the time.
Visually beautiful building and a Belfast landmark. Famous for the tradition of the Black Santa, its beautiful architecture and its Spire of Hope. St Anne's Cathedral which is often referred to as Belfast Cathedral is definitely worth a visit.

Edward VII's debauchery stemmed from parental neglect
Perhaps no Prince of Wales in history has been less trusted — or more spied upon — than the boy everyone knew as Bertie. When he attended a military summer camp, at age 19, the future King Edward VII was surrounded by minders: two stern Grenadier officers, a colonel and a general. He even had to share a general's quarters.
Happily, however, they had not thought to lock Bertie's bedroom window. So, one night, the heir to the throne wriggled out, made a beeline for the camp prostitute — one Nellie Clifden — and triumphantly lost his virginity.
Moreover, as I discovered from his engagement diary for September 1861, there was a '2nd time' and a '3rd time' with the luscious 'NC', proving he lacked in neither courage or enthusiasm....

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
22 Mar 2004 17:56 GMT
Field brigadier-general Abd al-Qadir al-Mafraji, a senior officer in the former Iraqi army told the newspaper that the conditions and requirements for nominating the minister and the staff personnel had been finalised. "Senior officials in the future ministry of defence must meet certain requirements" he said "the most important is that the nominee should be a former military attaché in the US or UK.""All Iraqi army officers who received military training in Russia and the former Soviet Union are excluded" he said. Iraqi sources have confirmed to Aljazeera.net that media reports which suggested a Kurdish figure is to be installed as the minister of defence are true. Secret training Meanwhile, the United States is secretly training several senior former Iraqi army officers to advise Iraq's intended military establishment, former Iraqi officers and a politician said on Sunday. US army spokesman Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt said he had "no information" about such a training programme. The politician, who refused to be named, said six major-generals and 11 other senior officers active in the Iraqi army until last year's US-led invasion to topple Saddam Hussein were being trained, mostly in the United States. Brigadier-general Najib al-Salhi, who defected to Washington in the 1990s and is now back in Iraq, said several officers were being trained abroad, but said they were all from the regular army, not from the elite Republican Guard units.
Soldiers from the dissolved Iraqi army demonstrating in Basra
The politician, who showed Reuters a list of officers he said were being trained by the United States, said the Iraqi Governing Council had not been consulted on the programme.
"Iraqi security forces have to win the consent of the people," he said. "Hiring these officers violates an understanding between the Governing Council and America that senior officials in the former regime would not play a role in the new Iraq." But former army officers said they saw no political threat from the men now reportedly being groomed by the United States. Brigadier Abu Nawar, another former officer, said the regular army had been a professional force, compared to the elite units and multiple security agencies during Saddam Hussein's rule. "These officers graduated before Saddam even came to power and had a reputation as excellent professionals. They were outside Saddam's circle and (Baath party) political commissars watched their moves," he said. Identity US forces are training officer cadets in Jordan for the new Iraqi army, due to number 30,000 by September, and the first batch graduated last week. The cadets include junior officers in the former Iraqi army and Kurdish "peshmerga" militiamen who once fought Saddam's forces. Iraqi army officers are resentful towards the training of officers outside Iraq, and believe that their army has enough knowledge and skills to train its own officers. Ayad al-Janabi, an Iraqi warplane pilot said an officer should receive his/her elementary training at home. "Receiving the basic training at home, guarantees the national identity of the officer" he said "after that an officer can receive further training abroad."

Youth Is Served
This iconic photograph of John, Jacqueline and a 9-month-old Caroline Kennedy was taken in July 1958. Young, handsome and vital, Kennedy, then 41, was a politician for a new age. Jackie, 29, brought an air of elegance and refinement.

At Home on the Water
Jack and Jackie in Hyannis Port, Mass., taking a break from the 1960 presidential campaign. JFK loved the water and was a superb swimmer and sailor. His legend as a hero began with bravery at sea on PT-109 during World War II.

Showing Vigor, Hiding Pain
JFK tosses Caroline into the air in the backyard of their home in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Back problems made physical play like this difficult for Kennedy, but he projected a healthy, athletic image for the camera.

The Calm Before the Storm
The future president and first lady of the United States sit unrecognized in an Oregon diner during a presidential campaign stop in the fall of 1959. Stephen Smith, with his back to the camera, was Kennedy's brother-in-law and the finance chairman of his campaign.

Prepared for Battle
This photo captures the Kennedys just days before the Democratic National Convention in July 1960. Opposed by Lyndon Johnson and twice-failed nominee Adlai Stevenson, Kennedy would win the nomination on the first ballot and ask Johnson to be his running mate.

Every Vote Counts
JFK speaks to supporters at a campaign stop in Vermont the day before the 1960 election. In one of the closest presidential contests in American history, John Fitzgerald Kennedy would win the popular tally by just 112,827 votes (less than 0.2 percent of the total cast).
