SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (MarketWatch) — Global risks are accelerating. This is our fourth major poll update of industry leaders: A critical review of their warnings from early last year when we first predicted a 87% risk of a crash: Bernanke's Fed saw an "unsustainable bubble" ... Gross: "credit supernova" ... Gundlach: "kaboom ahead" ... Ellis: "Don't own bonds" ... Shilling: "shocker" ... Roubini: "Prepare for perfect storm" ... Shiller: "Irrational exuberance is back" ... Schiff: "Doubling down" on "doomsday" prediction ... InvestmentNews' warning 90,000 advisers: "tick, tick ... boom!"
A few weeks later the crash risk was up to 98%. Then a dramatic preholiday uptick in investor sentiment. America's collective unconscious tired of negativity after a Halloween headline: "Economic guillotine dead ahead." A week later, 2014 became the "Year of the Boom." Bank of America's chief strategist screamed: "Bet on the bulls now." The Great Gatsby spirit was celebrating the holidays: "Even old grumpy Dr. Doom, celeb economist Nouriel Roubini, began humming a happy tune all over television: "A global recovery is going to occur, get into equities."
What really happened? Fed politics. Short-term, Larry Summers withdrew as a candidate for the Fed chairman's job. Dark cloud lifted as Janet Yellen become the pick. Wall Street cheered, Bernanke's easy-money printing presses would not screw up their year-end bonuses. Plus Main Street was mentally exhausted, tired of the bad news, relentless political drama. We needed a holiday break.
By Thanksgiving, "irrational exuberance" was accelerating in full holiday tilt: Headline: "Shiller's hot P/Es will power a roaring bull till 2017," and 2014 got branded the "Katy Perry market!" A week later, a Thanksgiving headline added: "10 reasons to be a bull in 2014."
But long term? What's really ahead for America in 2014? Warning, something bigger is hiding in the deep shadows of our collective brain. At a recent lunch with an old friend, one of the world's more successful commodities traders, he confirmed that "something" was dead ahead. But not just another brief statistical shift in sentiment. Not a medium-term volatility shift. America, the world, are in a historic transition, a paradigm shift, a mysterious upheaval that few will grasp till it moves further along.
Dark road dead ahead: Yellen, Gross, GOP, off-center, all tested
More losses? How bad? Worse than 2000 and 2008? Yes. Wall Street, Main Street, Washington, the global economy, will all be knocked off-center. Traders are focusing on St. Patrick's Day for guidance, below S&P 1,850, Dow 16,400, with a downturn accelerating after a macroeconomic news event in mid-April. For Wall Street's short-term thinkers, all easy to dismiss, they make money on the action, up or down.
But this trader's track-record says listen. His predictions fit our polls. The underlying reason is simple: Yellen's policy is to keep printing cheap money. Remember last summer: Bernanke still in power? Wall Street feared Summers would hurt bonuses. Gross screamed, "QE must end." Yet market kept rising. Pimco lost. Gross was off-center. His partner Mohamed El Erian left. Gross's confusion was just one of many signs of a fundamentally flawed monetary policy dating back to Greenspan and Reaganomics
What's ahead is even bigger: A black swan. Unpredictable. A macroeconomic catastrophe in China, Russia? Something politically dramatic, like the fall of the Berlin Wall? Oil wars? What do you see? Dismiss? Comment: Will 2014 continue the bull? Correction? Bear? The "big one" predicted for last year? Finally coming? Our poll resembles the one we reported on from 2004 to 2008, summarized shortly before the collapse.
To help you, here are highlights we reported over the last year. Read, comment, what do you see ahead? A critical mass of macroeconomic triggers that could accelerate a downturn, recession, something we'll deny, never hear, till too late:
Gary Shilling: 42% decline in S&P ... and global recession
"With a global recession depressing corporate revenues, unsustainable profit margins and currency translation losses spawned by a robust dollar." In early January Shilling saw "S&P 500 operating earnings ... a quarter below Wall Street consensus. Throw in a bear market P/E low of 10 and the S&P 500 Index drops to 800, a 42% decline."
Bill Gross: Credit supernova dead ahead
In February, Gross warned of a "credit supernova." Pimco has $2 trillion at risk if the Fed's cheap money explodes, brings down the economy. Worse, "investment banking, which only a decade ago promoted small-business development ... now is dominated by leveraged speculation and the Ponzi finance."
Nouriel Roubini: Global collapse, prepare for perfect storm
Roubini on Slate: "Sooner or later, another ugly fight" over debt, and markets get "spooked." Any one trend "would be enough to stall the global economy, tip it into recession."
InvestmentNews: Bond crash coming, "Tick, Tick ... Boom!"
InvestmentNews March front page was so overwhelming, you could hear sirens flashing, warning in huge bold type: "Tick, tick ... boom!" Their readers, 90,000 advisers, trust INews forecasts. Warning: Millions of investors have "no idea what's about to happen."

|Avery Meth Lab Discovery Leads to 2 Arrests
|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 19 February 2013 08:13
Avery Deputies and Elk Park officers, trying to serve an arrest warrant at an Elk Park residence last Wednesday were supplied information about another location where a meth lab might be located, and going there, were overwhelmed with the noxious fumes of ammonia
—a common smell from meth labs, according to their release. The lawmen were trying to arrest 30-year old Jonathan Huskins on a habitual felon warrant when told of the second location, but after being turned away by the smell, they ordered the evacuation of the residence, checked the outside to find other evidence of a meth lab, then entered with breathing apparatus, finding chemicals and equipment for the manufacturing of meth. With the SBI called to the scene, Steven Ray Pruitt, 49, of Elk Park was taken into custody, charged with a number of felonies including Manufacturing of Meth, Maintaining a Vehicle and/or Dwelling for the Manufacture of a controlled substance, Possession with Intent to Distribute Meth Precursor Chemicals, Pruitt set $150,000 bond with a March court date.

When you were a child, did you enjoy taking things apart and putting them back together? If you did, you are familiar with the idea of module design. Modular design uses a series of parts to create a complex unit. It's often used in the furniture and electronics. One example of its' use in electronics is in modular connectors.
When it comes to the world of connectors, the context of modular design manifests itself in a family of products that can be customized to meet the unique demands of the consumer. These customizations can include custom parameters, specs, and yes…limitations.
There are 4 main types of modular connectors. Let's review them.
- Fixed envelope (factory-assembled)
- Fixed envelope (user-assembled)
- Expandable envelope (factory-assembled)
- Expandable envelope (user-assembled)
Modular connectors allow design engineers (and novices alike) to attain an ideal set of specs, including size, weight, and power combinations by assembling these components to their individual tastes, preferences, and needs. That makes them both incredibly effective and versatile.
Are you curious about the history of this unique adaptation in the world of power connectors? Then it may interest you to know that modular connectors were first developed and then patented by
Modular connectors were originally developed and patented by Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1975. This was a welcomed development in the world of technology, as they replaced screw terminals and 3-4 pin telephone jacks in commercial and residential buildings.

FORT DRUM The Army has selected the general who will lead the post and 10th Mountain Division when the divisions headquarters leaves for a much-discussed deployment to Afghanistan.
Brig. Gen. Michael L. Howard, who serves as director, future operations for the International Security Assistance Force Joint Command in Afghanistan, will become senior commander at a time to be determined.
The title of senior commander has been used to describe leaders who take up the rear detachment roles, including Maj. Gen. Harry E. Miller Jr., who served as senior rear commander from October 2010 to October 2011, when the division headquarters was deployed to Afghanistan.
Gen. Howard was nominated for his current rank in December.
The placement, first announced by the Department of Defense on July 25, drew some initial confusion, with concerns that it meant the replacement of post and division commander Maj. Gen. Stephen J. Townsend.
However, it was clarified that the placement was meant for the rear detachment role.
A spokesman said Tuesday the post would not comment on the announcement.
Though a division headquarters deployment has been discussed frequently in recent months, it has not been listed formally by the Department of Defense.
Gen. Townsend has discussed the anticipated headquarters deployment several times, including an Aug. 6 statement announcing the militarys decision to reduce furlough days for civilian workers during the current fiscal year.

Hi My name is Doralee and I have opened Doralee's Handspininng in Sanford Maine. I am starting to teach classes and have run in to the problem of getting across core ideas of spinning techniques to students who want to learn spinning but are having a hard time getting over the fact they have to let go of the fiber so it can draw into the orifice of the spinning wheel. Its been so long since I was a beginner (1970s) that some things are self evident to me but I know they are not to my students. Are there handspinning teachers workshops I can go to or is this something that takes time? I don't get angry but try to be reassuring but how do I overcome their frustration?
Hi Doralee - I have been spinning several years and have taught a few friends to spin. I found the best way to begin is to use a ball of yarn surprising as that may sound. Attach the yarn to the lead as you normaly would wool roving and let the new spinner get the feel of the action of the wheel, how it twists and how it draws. By the time they have 'spun' the ball of yarn they will be ready to try spinning wool roving. Hope this helps. Good luck - Rebecca
I don't have anything to offer for your question, but can you tell me what the hours are for your store? We've been past it a few times, but haven't been able to stop when you were open.
My wife is interested in getting into spinning, and I've been researching spinning wheels to try to figure out what's decent for wheels.
I recently taught my niece to spin and had the same problem, this was my solution.
I had her hold the fiber in her left hand with her right hand pinching the drafting, I had her spin a lot of twist into the fiber and then stop spinning. Then I told her to just release her right hand watch the twist snap up the line, we repeated this process several times until she was confident that it would not fall apart. Then we practiced loading the twist, stopping the wheel and focus just on drafting and slowly releasing. This gave her the confidence to start working the wheel together with drafting and not worry about the yarn falling apart.
The ONLY difference between an accomplished spinner and a new one who feels they don't have "the touch for it", is practice and not quitting.
When I taught, I usually used the imagery of feeding the wheel the fiber. If you withhold the food, the wheel gets cranky and will do interesting things to the fiber. If fed at regular intervals (baby bear just right) everything usually goes smoothly. The difference between beginners and us is we know how to troubleshoot and they don't.
LOL, that's an angle I never thought of before. I remember my biggest fear was if the yarn broke loose and I would have to start again, that part was both difficult and scary, as a result I would over spin to the point where I broke the yarn anyway. What I wound up doing was taking several small pieces and constantly practiced re-attaching the new fiber to the spun fiber.
I am open Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. From 8am to 2pm. and longer when I don't have to work at night. These odd and limited hours are due to the fact I work second shift at one job and third shift at another job, about 50 hours. The shop is about 24 hours. I knew that when I started this business, it would not be able to stand alone until I was more established, hence I work other jobs to support it. I hope in another two years to do this full time, but I still expect it will be just breaking even at that time. If you want me to be available at another time, call me and I can make arrangements to be open for you. I do look forward to meeting with veteran spinners and prospective ones, I really have a passion for this!
Just letting go IS the hardest lesson in spinning! When I was first introduced to the wheel, I started with some acrylic yarn fed it through the orifice, attached it to the bobbin and just learned the motions first THEN when to working on actual roving. But one question: do you start complete beginners (never spun before) with a spinning wheel? If so, try teaching them hand spindle first, it might help they understand what they need to do. Also, teach both hand spindle and wheel beginners to "park and draw". They wind up a lot of wool, park the spindle between their knees or feet (or stop the wheel) and draw the yarn out, letting the twist ride up. Then they wind it on the bobbin or spindle and start again. That may help.
One more idea: get a basic " how to spin" DVD or book and use it as a model to teach. Teaching methods that others have figured out will help you at the beginning.
Good luck!

Tactical Preview
The Fire will host Sporting KC on Sunday afternoon at Toyota Park attempting to extend their unbeaten run to double digits after a dramatic five-goal thriller against San Jose midweek while KC comes to Chicago after a disappointing home draw against Vancouver.
Both teams are not on friendly terms and this looks set to be a thriller. Here are some tactical things to look out for.
Limiting the set pieces – Don't allow Zusi to work his magic
Sporting KC have a double threat on set pieces with a number of players who are very good in the air and they have Graham Zusi, one of the best strikers of a dead ball in MLS.
At the back, Frenchman Aurelien Collin is not only strong but always makes a nuisance of himself in the box. Up front, they've benefited from the return of striker Kei Kamara who spent some time with Norwich in the Premier League.
Dan and Kevin talk Sporting KC
In KC's last match against Vancouver, Kamara came very close to scoring from headers on multiple occasions not by outmuscling his opponent like Collin does but simply by out jumping them.
Like quite a few teams in MLS, Kansas City also possesses a modified set play – the long throw. Just as Jalil Anibaba deploys the it almost whenever possible for the Fire, SKC center back Matt Besler does the same.
The Fire gave away a silly goal from a set piece last week and better defending will be needed against a team that is well known for their set piece prowess.
Keeping SKC's attacking wide players at bay – neutralizing Saad and Kamara
Kansas City starts in a 4-3-3 formation with striker Claudio Bieler in the middle with Kei Kamara and Soony Saad supporting him wide. Many teams are so focused (and I don't blame them) on Bieler and attacking mid Graham Zusi that sometimes Saad and Kamara are overlooked and both players are good at finding space.
Coach Peter Vermes constantly orders the players to switch sides during play which makes picking them up even harder. In Kansas City's last win against Columbus, Kamara chipped in with two goals, the first coming from a fantastic switch of the field which found Kamara in space that he was able to control and finish.
The attacking nature of Sporting's outside defenders also gives Kamara and Saad an excuse to get into the middle and support Bieler. There will be some 1v1 battles between Saad and the Fire outside defenders but it will certainly take a team effort to keep the wide men at bay on Sunday afternoon.
Letting the Fire wingers create – creating room for Nyarko and Duka change the game
Anyone who has watched the Fire closely this season will tell you that winger Patrick Nyarko is playing the best the best soccer of his career and if he can overcome the tight hamstring that brought him out early against San Jose and start against KC the Fire have a great chance of winning.
Athletico Coaching Corner with Mike Matkovich
Nyarko has done it all for the team this year, be it tracking back to win the ball from his opponent, beating a man in a 1v1 situation or combining well with his teammates.
In the midweek win against San Jose, Nyarko did something many critics of the Fire often call out for more of, getting into the box to support the strikers. Nyarko not only got in but made a great near post run and finished superbly.
The cross provided for the Nyarko goal came from Dilly Duka who is starting to show his true potential. Duka had a goal and an assist in the win against San Jose and could've had a few more if not for narrowly missing a few rockets from outside the box.
READ: Will Nyarko be good to go Sunday?
In the past few weeks, Dilly has been a major threat from the wide positions, beating players at will and putting in numerous dangerous crosses. Duka has also got into the box to great effect, scoring two goals in as many matches.
The dual threat of attacking from wide areas as well as providing support in the box should cause the SKC back line some major issues on Sunday afternoon.
Prediction: Fire critics have claimed the club has yet to beat an elite team during the side's nine-game unbeaten streak but I think those critics will be silenced on Sunday afternoon. 2-1 Fire with goals from Magee and Alex.
Tactical Preview: Despite international absences, San Jose will be reeling from stoppage time win over LA
After the weekend off, the Fire head back on the field Wednesday night against the San Jose Earthquakes with the team looking to extend its eight-game unbeaten streak to nine (LIVE 7:00pm CT on My50).
San Jose played late Saturday night against LA and came from two goals and a man down to win 3-2. Both teams are still on the outside of the playoff spots looking in but are moving in the right direction. Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective Wednesday night.
Gold Cup changes – Both San Jose and the Fire missing players – who will it affect more?
Both the Earthquakes and the Fire will be missing players due to CONCACAF Gold Cup commitments but in terms of sheer numbers, San Jose is certainly hit harder. The California club is sending four players to compete while goalkeeper Sean Johnson is the Fire's only representative.
The Earthquakes will also be without center back Victor Bernardez who picked up a red card against LA.
READ: "July is my moment" says Paolo Tornaghi
The losses of last year's MLS Golden Boot winner Chris Wondolowski and dynamic midfielder Marvin Chavez are especially tough and San Jose will certainly be relying even more on strikers Steven Lenhart and Alan Gordon Wednesday.
Paolo Tornaghi is no stranger to the Fire net but will be looking to put in a better performance than his last MLS outing, giving up four goals at home to Chivas USA back in March.
Still, Tornaghi is an excellent goalkeeper and could easily be starting for another team in MLS. With Sean Johnson missing for the better part of a month, this is a chance for the former Inter Milan 'keeper to really step up and force coach Frank Klopas into making a tough decision on the starting job once Johnson returns.
Keeping an eye on the outsides – Morrow and Beitashour are attacking threats
When you have strikers who are good in the air like San Jose has with the likes of Wondolowski, Lenhart and Gordon you want your wide players to be able to put a good cross in. The Earthquake's wing backs can certainly do that.
Rolfe, Tornaghi Preview San Jose
Both Justin Morrow and Steven Beitashour enjoy getting forward and their crossing ability is outstanding. Thankfully Gonzalo Segares did not get called into Costa Rica's Gold Cup squad and his battle against Beitashour will be one to watch on Wednesday.
Beitashour's numbers are certainly down from last season where he recorded six assists but he is still a player the Fire cannot allow space to cross the ball into the box.
In the 'Quakes last away match against D.C. United last month, Morrow got forward a lot more than this past weekend's match against LA. The outside backs attempted a combined 13 crosses in that match compared to only seven in the LA match.
Limiting the number of crosses should be a goal for the Men in Red on Wednesday night.
Tightening up at the back – important for Berry and Soumare to get their positioning right
With the possibility of both Lenhart and Alan Gordon starting for San Jose, both Bakary Soumare and Austin Berry must be prepared for some bruising physical battles.
Another thing the central defenders must keep an eye on is their positioning. An overlooked aspect of the Fire's 5-1 victory over Orlando City in the U.S. Open Cup quarterfinal last week was the amount of good chances Orlando had, especially on 1v1 duels with Sean Johnson.
READ: Could Victor Pineda's first team debut be in sight?
The Orlando strikers were able to get as many chances as they did due to some positioning errors by the Fire's central defenders. Better communication between the pair, the back line and goalkeeper as a whole should correct this problem.
This will also be Tornaghi's first match playing with Soumare so it will be interesting to see how good the players' communication with one another is.
At times Berry and Soumare make it hard for themselves with some lackluster positioning which resulted in them having to make up ground and make some last ditch tackles, something we saw against Orlando on more than one occasion.
Though Gordon and Lenhart are more about physicality than movement, I look for the Fire center backs to tighten up a bit on Wednesday and continue to improve on their less than one goal a game against average during this current eight-game unbeaten streak.
Prediction: 2-0 Fire with goals from Patrick Nyarko and "Magic" Mike Magee
The Men in Red extended their unbeaten streak to six games across all competitions on Wednesday night (4-0-2), coming behind to defeat the Colorado Rapids 2-1. Columbus notched a big win against Montreal last time out and face difficult trips to Kansas City and LA after the Saturday's home game against the Fire.
Here are some things to keep an eye on from a tactical perspective in this big match for both teams (LIVE Saturday 6:30pm CT on My50).
The turnover game - both teams will look to pressure each other's back line
In the Crew's most recent loss to the Union earlier this month, the Ohio team had major problems retaining possession when put under pressure. The Union forwards, especially Jack McInerny, did not allow Columbus time on the ball and the pressure led to Philly getting on the score sheet.
Johnson, Rolfe Preview Columbus
As we know, players like Mike Magee, Chris Rolfe and Patrick Nyarko are excellent at putting pressure on the opponent's defense and this will be important on Saturday night.
On the other side of the coin, the Crew like to deploy the high pressure tactic too, with former Fire player Dominic Oduro often hunting down defenders and not allowing them time on the ball.
READ: Berry recovers from blunder with winning goal vs. Rapids
In the Crew's 2-0 win over the Montreal Impact last weekend, Oduro stole the ball from a Montreal defender before slotting home the Crew's second goal in the 22nd minute.
Fire defender Austin Berry had an unfortunate incident in Wednesday's match against Colorado where he was stripped of the ball allowing rookie Deshorn Brown to give Colorado the lead.
In a game that is expected to be very tight, the team making the least mental mistakes could end up on top.
The battle on the left side - Duka/Lindpere vs Anor
Columbus winger Bernardo Anor won many plaudits for his performance against Montreal last week on his first start back from a horrible ACL injury.
The left-footed Venezuelan started on the right against the Impact and will be looking to build on that performance against the Fire Saturday night.
On the same side of the field, coach Frank Klopas will be choosing between former Crew winger Dilly Duka and veteran Joel Lindpere for the start.
Dan and Kevin Talk Crew
Duka played his best game for the Men in Red against Colorado on Wednesday night as he was able to get in 1v1 situations on numerous occasions and earned the penalty that equalized the match.
Lindpere has yet to fully live up to the high expectations put on him by Fire fans after his move from New York this offseason.
With the team in the middle of a 4 games in 11 day stretch, a start for Lindpere seems plausible.
Getting back into the stating XI in a huge Eastern Conference showdown could be the perfect motivation for Lindpere to put in a man of the match performance on Saturday night.
Dominic Oduro - A striker with a point to prove
With seven goals to his name this season, Dominic Oduro has landed on his feet in Columbus after his trade away from the Windy City. Oduro also seems to have developed into a more complete striker since his move.
The speedy Ghanaian's patience on the ball has resulted in him making better decisions and linking with his midfielders more instead of going alone and trying to score.
What has impressed me about Oduro since the trade is his move away from a reliance on his right foot to a player that is comfortable shooting with both.
READ: The Influence of Jeff Larentowicz
Fire fans will remember Oduro's hot and cold finishing but on his day, he can be unstoppable. The Fire have held Oduro scoreless in two matches already this season but at home, the Ghanaian will be aiming to prove a point and it is up to the Fire defenders to keep him quiet on Saturday night.
Prediction: 2-1 Fire with a brace from midfielder Alex
Stephen Piggott is a contributor to Chicago-Fire.com. Follow him on Twitter @irish_steve.
After a rousing comeback against Portland last time out in the league, the Fire start a busy period Wednesday night against a tricky Colorado Rapids team (LIVE 7pm CT on My50) who just their six-game unbeaten streak snapped at the weekend by San Jose Earthquakes. Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective:
Exposing the Rapids center backs: targeting Drew Moor and Marvell Wynne
Colorado's usual starting pair at the center of the defense is Shane O'Neill and Drew Moor but with the Irish-born youngster in Turkey with the US U-20 team, right back Marvell Wynne has slotted into the middle.
FIRE vs. RAPIDS: Tickets Still Available
Against San Jose last week, this pairing had a lot of trouble, especially when the Quakes attacking players separated and isolated the center backs.
The movement of Rolfe and Magee, both very mobile strikers, could open up the Colorado defense. If the Fire's attacking pair can draw Moor/Wynne out, it can lead to space being created behind them, something San Jose did well last weekend.
Keeping an eye on Deshorn Brown - the rookie has 4 assists this season
Similar to my thoughts a few weeks ago about D.C. rookie Kyle Porter, Deshorn Brown has caught my eye for Colorado this season.
Playing on the left of a front three he's dangerous and a good supplier of the ball for striker Edson Buddle. Much of Colorado's chances in the past few matches have come from Brown's side.
Larentowicz, Duka Preview Colorado
The Rapids will be without Atiba Harris after his red against San Jose last week which puts even more emphasis on Brown to step up in the Kittitian's absence.
Right-sided players Jalil Anibaba and Patrick Nyarko will need to be very wary of the rookie on Wednesday night.
Fire squad rotation - my case in for it
The Men in Red have a tough stretch of 4 games in 11 days and it would be very demanding on the players to try and stick with the same starting XI for all four because of a risk of burnout.
A more likely approach would be one of steady and not drastic rotation meaning making a few changes each match and not starting a completely different team. This is of course assuming the team doesn't pick up any injuries or suspensions during this stretch.

Giving a few players a break Wednesday night with one eye on the tough away Eastern Conference match against Columbus on Saturday might be a worthwhile policy for head coach Frank Klopas.
Fire squad rotation - my case against
Something fans have criticized coach Klopas for is sticking to a regular starting XI and not making too many changes from game to game.
That being said, the team is currently unbeaten in four games and if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
The last 20 minutes against Portland last weekend was the team's best spell all season and if they can continue that form the next few weeks could see us in the U.S. Open Cup semifinals and moving closer to the MLS Cup playoff positions in the East.
With the back line finally stable and the Mike Magee/Chris Rolfe partnership starting to really gel, there is a strong case for coach Klopas to stick with the same XI during this run of games.

After a week of very positive results on the field, the Fire team will be full of confidence as they welcome the Portland Timbers to Toyota Park on Saturday night (LIVE 7pm CT on My50/La Ley 107.9FM) .
Portland are not short of confidence themselves, riding into town on an 11 game unbeaten streak. Both teams are missing players due to international duty. Here are some tactical things to keep an eye on...
The 4-4-2 diamond formation option #1 – keep the diamond for the Portland game
In the Fire's most recent MLS game against D.C. United, the team tweaked the formation and started with a 4-4-2 with a diamond in midfield. Jeff Larentowicz played just in front of the back four while Alex got the start at the point of the diamond.
Against D.C., this tactic worked very well as Alex was given license to stay forward and almost act as a third forward at times while helping Mike Magee and Chris Rolfe put pressure on the United back four.
Frank Klopas echoed this in a recent interview, stating "He's had two good games, he brings that ability onto the field – when he gets the ball he can make good passes and connect plays together, another guy that supports the forwards."
Like Magee and Rolfe, Alex is just as good without the ball at his feet, constantly making runs wide and connecting with Patrick Nyarko and Joel Lindpere on the wings. Though the Fire didn't have as much possession as D.C., Alex was involved in a number of counter attacks which caught United off guard.
Every fan wants to see attacking soccer from their team, especially at home, and starting Alex at the top of the diamond would certainly signal that the Fire don't intend to sit back and allow Portland to come at them, but rather the opposite.
The 4-4-2 diamond formation option #2 – revert to two more defensive minded players in the middle
Even without starting striker Ryan Johnson (gone for international duty), Portland boasts one of the most potent attacks in MLS. To date, the team has scored 22 goals, only 12 away from what they put up the entirety of last season.
Frenchman Frédéric Piquionne will start as the lone striker in place of Johnson but it is the support behind him that the Fire must be wary of. With players like Diego Valeri (who I will talk about more later) Darlington Nagbe and Will Johnson, the team from the Rose City have a wealth of attacking options.
Because Portland plays with a 5 man midfield, a lone holding midfielder might not be enough for the Fire on Saturday night. Jeff Larentowicz did a fantastic job of stifling the D.C. attack last weekend but against a team not afraid to push men forward, a two-man combination of Pause/Paladini/Larentowicz makes more sense tactically.
Two holding midfielders would also put less pressure on wingers Patrick Nyarko and Dilly Duka to drop back and help out defensively. Coach Klopas also called for the team to dominate more in possession against the Timbers and playing the two central midfielders close to one another would suit this strategy.
What will be interesting is which option the Fire start the game with, knowing that the team can revert to either option simply by making a substitution and either bringing Alex on the field or off.
Stopping Diego Valeri – taking a physical approach
Over the past two seasons teams have used a number of strategies to stop Fire playmakers such as Patrick Nyarko, Chris Rolfe and Sebastian Grazzini. One tactic that is used very often is to be physical (and in some cases overly physical) in an attempt to keep the player from making an impact. One way to try and contain Timbers creative midfielder Diego Valeri is to take this very approach.
Back in 2011, Paladini employed this tactic against RSL's Kyle Beckerman and after 11 minutes, Beckerman snapped, head-butting Paladini and getting sent off with the Fire ending the game as 3-0 winners.
There is certainly a fine line between kicking lumps out of a player and just being physical with him. Thankfully, the Men in Red are blessed with veteran players such as Pause and Larentowicz and players like Paladini who are well versed in the "dark arts."
Because Valeri is so mobile, another option would be to man-mark him but that essentially eliminates one of the Fire players' ability to contribute to the attack. The physical approach is certainly a more practical tactic than the man marking one and if the Fire can contain Valeri and prevent him from pulling the strings in midfield, it will be very detrimental to a Portland team who rely heavily on his creativity.
Prediction: The Fire will continue to turn the corner and hand the Timbers their first defeat in 11 games. 1-0 Fire with a goal from Chris Rolfe.
The Fire entertain lowly D.C. United this Sunday at Toyota Park (LIVE 4pm CT on My50/UniMas) after a week of very positive results in MLS and U.S. Open Cup play. The Men in Red got a credible draw at RSL before traveling to South Carolina to take on the Charlotte Eagles, winning 2-0 and advancing to the fourth round of the Cup.
D.C. dropped a 2-0 result to Portland at RFK Stadium last weekend and squeezed by the Richmond Kickers on penalties in the Cup at midweek. Here are some tactical things to look out for during Sunday afternoon's game.
Magee and Rolfe – a budding partnership to continue up front?
Fire newbie Mike Magee made his debut against the Eagles on Tuesday and combined well with Chris Rolfe up front with both players tallying in the win.
Rolfe and Magee looked to get each other involved in the attack and tried to play as close to one another as possible.
Coach Frank Klopas indicated after signing Magee that he feels his best position is playing up front and because both he and Rolfe are so mobile, it makes sense to continue to start the pair against a D.C. team
that has struggled on the defensive end this season.
Soumare, Rolfe preview D.C. United
Magee showed on Tuesday how much of a threat he is in the air and his inclusion in front of Maicon Santos and Sherjill MacDonald will not hurt the Fire in terms of having an aerial threat up front.
Magee's move up front also allows Patrick Nyarko to slot back into a wide position which allows him to be more creative and take players on.
This new partnership has the potential to blossom into a very successful one and the more time both players get to spend on the field together, the better.
Exposing the Kitchen/DeLeon partnership – taking advantage when one gets forward
In D.C.'s last game against Portland the team played Nick DeLeon and Perry Kitchen together in the middle of the field, similar to how the Fire play with Jeff Larentowicz and Logan Pause.
When D.C. attacked, either DeLeon or Kitchen would get forward to support Chris Pontius and Carlos Ruiz.
This left the team with only one holding midfielder and Portland took full advantage of this, breaking at every opportunity and opening D.C. up with either a long ball into space or attacking through the middle where they only faced one holding player.
Portland's stretching of the field during the counter attacks opened up huge pockets of space in the middle and players like Will Johnson and Darlington Nagbe were able to get forward and put real pressure on the United defense.
Kitchen is a more disciplined player than the sophomore DeLeon and the Fire must look to try and take advantage of this when D.C. turn the ball over in an advanced position.
Keeping an eye on Kyle Porter – DC's tricky winger
I admit that the Portland/DC game was the first time I had seen Kyle Porter play and he impressed me a lot. Porter reminded me of a young Justin Mapp, a player with great promise but who can also be very frustrating at times.
Porter is very good in 1v1 situations but sometimes tries to do too much with the ball and not make the simple pass. Porter's crossing ability is also very impressive and he put numerous free kicks into dangerous positions.
Porter combined well with veteran James Riley on the right wing and Fire left back Gonzalo Segares will be tested on Sunday night. That being said, Porter can also be a bit naive on the defensive side of the ball and the Fire should look to exploit the space behind him if he is slow to track back.
Prediction: Statistically, D.C. is the weakest team in MLS and with the Fire playing at home, three points is a must. 2-0 Fire with goals from Chris Rolfe and Dilly Duka.
The Fire head west to Utah on Saturday night after dropping two games against the Union both at home and in Philadelphia. The team is without a goal in three games and face a daunting task against \ in-form Real Salt Lake (7:30pm CT on My50). RSL swept Chivas aside last weekend, cruising to a 4-1 victory. Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective.
The return of Soumare – more changes for the Fire back line?
On Thursday, the Fire acquired former player Bakary Soumare from the Union. Soumare will provide some much-needed depth at the center back position with the long-term future of Arne Friedrich in doubt.
Soumare's return comes at a good time for the Fire who are without a number of players due to injury and suspension. With Wells Thompson suspended, Frank Klopas could choose to move Jalil Anibaba to the right side of defense and slot Soumare in alongside Austin Berry.
Athletico Coaching Corner: Real Salt Lake
The injury to Friedrich has meant a longer than expected spell in the middle for Anibaba and in his absence, the right-back position has changed hands on numerous occasions this season.
READ: Soumare ready to start vs. RSL
Though right-back isn't Anibaba's natural position, the defender has played there for a lot of his Fire career and is comfortable in it.
Against a team like Salt Lake who are known for their aerial prowess, another big body on the back line like Soumare's in addition to Anibaba and Berry would be very useful.
Getting some consistency in defense is very important from here on out and a starting four of Anibaba, Soumare, Berry and Segares would appear to have the right blend of youth and experience.
The Fire's attack – pace vs possession
In both games vs. the Union, coach Frank Klopas started Patrick Nyarko up front with Chris Rolfe in an attempt to bring some speed to the forward line.
Against Salt Lake however, a more logical tactic would be to use a bigger body who can hold the ball up and can be used as an outlet to relieve pressure.
Sherjill MacDonald is fit again after an illness and could start up front as the target forward. This would allow the Fire to move Patrick Nyarko back to the wing, possibly in place of Joel Lindpere who has logged a lot of minutes this season.
READ: Nyarko keeps ticking despite reckless tackles
Though Nyarko's creativity and pace in the attack worked well against Philly, his desire to track back and help the defense could prove very important, especially against a team with a wealth of attacking options who are so offensive minded at home.
The problem with starting MacDonald up front is that he can oftentimes be left devoid of support and it will be up to players like Rolfe, and Duka to get forward and support the Dutchman.
If he does get the nod, the battle between him and the RSL center backs such as Kwame Watson-Siriboe will be very interesting to watch.
RSL's midfielders – tracking runs into the box
RSL plays with a diamond midfield system with Kyle Beckerman anchoring and Javier Morales playing at the top of the diamond. Morales is the team's playmaker and oftentimes acts as a third striker, getting forward to support the front two.
Duka, Larentowicz preview Real Salt Lake
Though Morales is an obvious target, players like Ned Grabavoy and Luis Gil who play on the flanks cut inside on a regular basis, making runs into the middle when joining in the attack.
With this many players getting forward, the Fire must be aware not only of who is marking who but must prevent RSL from getting second ball opportunities.
Similar to the Fire for most of the season, RSL likes to play with at least one mobile striker while the other tends to play higher up the field.
The mobile striker, oftentimes Joao Plata, drifts into wide positions, usually on the right hand side. His moves out wide open up more space for players like Morales, Grabavoy and Gil to move into.
Plata has four assists this season and is a good crosser of the ball. His crossing ability was displayed earlier this month against Vancouver where he put in a perfect ball Gil to head home the winner.
Staying tight with runners from midfield and not allowing second ball opportunities will improve the Fire's chances of getting a result on the road dramatically.
Prediction: Rio Tinto Stadium is one of the hardest places in MLS to get a result in. The Fire has had no luck this season and perhaps Saturday night will be the night. 1-1 with Chris Rolfe scoring the Fire's goal from the penalty spot.

The Fire head to Philadelphia on Saturday night to take on the Union for the second time in seven days (Coverage begins 6pm CT on My50). The Men in Red dropped a heart breaker 1-0 at home last week despite creating a number of chances. Philly played LA at home at midweek and lost 4-1 after a second half defensive collapse. Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective.
Rolfe and Nyarko up top – repeat the first half of last week
In the first half against the Union at Toyota Park last week Patrick Nyarko terrorized the Philly defense, running at them with pace and creating a number of opportunities.
Rolfe and Nyarko combined well and were very close to each other on the pitch. The movement of the pair dragged the Philly center backs out leaving massive pockets of space in behind for the Fire to exploit.
WATCH: Nyarko, Berry Preview Philly
This happened on a number of occasions and NBC analyst Kyle Martino pointed it out over and over again on the broadcast.
In the second half however, the duo were too far apart and then Rolfe was moved out wide later. It goes without saying they'll need to play closer together on Saturday.
When Rolfe and Nyarko force the center backs out of position, players like Dilly Duka and Joel Lindpere need to do a better job of tucking in and taking advantage of that space, something the team didn't do enough of last week.
Philly were unable to deal with the pace of Nyarko last week and the Fire should look to get the ball to the Ghanaian as much as possible again Saturday.
Kleberson – keeping an eye on the "unknown" Brazilian
In Philly's game against the Galaxy Wednesday night the Union gave a first start to Kleberson in midfield. In the first half, LA was unable to deal with his movement and defense-splitting passes.
Kleberson got forward constantly to help out Jack McInerney and Sebastian Le Toux in the attack and was allowed two or three shots from just outside the box. He also dropped deep and found the strikers with some brilliant through balls.
In the second half, LA was a lot tighter on the Brazilian and he was less effective. Though he may not be fit enough to play the entire 90 minutes against the Fire, I would expect him to start after his excellent full debut against LA.
Logan Pause and either Daniel Paladini or Jeff Larentowicz must track Kleberson's runs and be wary of balls played in behind. Logan did a fantastic job of cutting out through balls in last weekend's match and the Fire will need a similar effort from the captain on Saturday, especially if Kleberson gets the start.
Focusing on Philly's left side – opportunities for Duka and Thompson
I spoke last week about the weaknesses of Philly defender Raymon Gaddis who filled in on the right for the suspended Sheanon Williams last weekend. Against LA on Wednesday night, Gaddis returned to left back and was again caught too far forward on a number of occasions.
On the one hand, Gaddis and Keon Daniel combine very well in the attack and are certainly a threat but both players fail to track back defensively when the Union turns the ball over.
On a number of occasions on Wednesday night Bakary Soumare had to come over to almost the left wing to cover for Gaddis who was nowhere to be found. LA took full advantage of this, attacking down Gaddis' side for most of the match.
Against Philly last weekend, right back Wells Thompson looked somewhat reluctant to come forward despite the fact that Dilly Duka was constantly coming inside and leaving space for Wells to run into. Both Thompson and Duka should be looking to attack Gaddis at every opportunity on Saturday night.
Prediction: 3-1 Fire with goals from Nyarko, Rolfe and Lindpere

The Fire head into Saturday afternoon's game against the Union (12:30pm CT on NBC Sports Network) on the back of a much-needed bye week after the tough loss in Montreal the week prior.
Philly tied 2-2 against lowly Seattle last time out and are set to be missing a few defenders due to injury and suspension. Both teams play each other twice over the next seven days. Here are some things to look for from a tactical perspective.
Philly's makeshift back line – Fire must take advantage - part 1
The Union come into this game missing starting right back Sheanon Williams and it appears former Fire player Bakary Soumare will get the start at center back for the first time all season.
WATCH: Match Preview
This major reshuffle combined with the Fire being the home team should mean Frank Klopas' side will be set up to attack Philly whenever possible. Williams is a loss on the right, not only for his defensive play but also his long throw ability which can be used as an offensive threat.
Filling in for Williams should be usual left back Raymon Gaddis. Gaddis looked particularly uncomfortable against New England in the Union's last away match in April, with the youngster getting caught out by balls in behind on a few occasions.
He was also exposed when put under pressure. The Revs wingers had luck getting the ball in the box from Gaddis' side and with this in mind, I expect to see Joel Lindpere and Gonzalo Segares getting forward and attacking Gaddis whenever possible.
Philly's makeshift back line – Fire must take advantage - part 2
Ironically, last season's match against the Union saw Bakary Soumare play his first and only game of the 2012 season for the Union. In that match, the Fire looked to get in 1v1 situations with the rusty defender and it paid off, with MacDonald beating Soumare before crossing for a Chris Rolfe tap in goal. This weekend's game plan should be no different with Soumare not playing in a match since the game last August.
The Men in Red will also look to force Soumare out of the middle to cover on the outside, something no centerback likes to do. Presumed starting wingers Patrick Nyarko and Joel Lindpere will be relishing 1v1 opportunities with the big defender.
Another area to test Soumare will be in the air. New England was able to win the ball in the aerial battle on numerous crosses into the Philly box, partially because of the hesitancy of goalkeeper Zac MacMath to come and challenge them.
A new center back pairing combined with a sometimes hesitant goalkeeper can lead to defensive errors and one such error could be decisive on Saturday afternoon.
WATCH: Athletico Coaching Corner
Stopping the Philly attack - be ready for different combinations
When one looks at the Philly attack this season, it is easy to get distracted by the exploits of 20-year-old Jack McInerney who has notched six goals already for the Union this season.
He picked up April's Player of the Month award and is playing the best soccer of his young career. Beyond McInerney, the Union have three excellent strikers who bring different playing styles to the table.
Veteran Conor Casey has played up front with McInerney in recent matches and has combined well with the man 11 years his junior. Both strikers are very fluid, dropping deep, moving out to the wing or playing in the advanced striker role and switching at a moment's notice.
It is much easier to prepare for what you presume to be the starting strikers will be. The challenge in Saturday's game will be the adjustments the coaching staff make if and when the Union decide to bring on some attacking substitutions.
Antoine Hoppenot and Sebastian Le Toux have started from the bench in recent matches but both have a tendency to make a big impact once brought on. Le Toux is very good with the ball at his feet and he can easily play in the second striker role, allowing McInerney to permanently move higher up the pitch.
Hoppenot scored four goals off the bench last season and has come off the bench in all but one game this season. If Le Toux does come on, dropping presumed center-mid starter Daniel Paladini a bit deeper to reduce the space Le Toux has to operate in is an option.
In-game adjustments are not often talked about but can often be the difference between three points and one.
Prediction: 2-1 Fire with goals from Nyarko and Lindpere
The Fire head to Canada on Saturday to face the Montreal Impact (3:00pm CT LIVE on NBC Sports Network and La Ley 107.9 FM) on the back of their best performance of the season last weekend against Columbus.
The Impact rested quite a few players in the 2-0 Canadian Cup loss to Toronto at midweek but can jump back to the top of the Eastern Conference standings with a win. Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective…
More changes a right back – Pause or Videira to get the start?
Johnson, Anibaba Preview Montreal
With the retrospective ban handed down to Wells Thompson, the Fire will need to make yet another change at right-back for Saturday.
Arne Friedrich's continued absence means Jalil Anibaba and Austin Berry will continue at center back, so the battle for the open spot is between Logan Pause and Mike Videira.
The latter played very well in that position away to Kansas City where the Fire got men behind the ball and held out for a 0-0 draw.
It could be argued that Videira could have held on to the right-back spot based on that KC performance if he didn't get sidelined with a concussion late in the match.
READ: Thompson "disappointed" but accepts suspension vs. Montreal
Logan is certainly the more experienced of the pair but if he is moved to right back it would break up the three-game run the captain has had in central midfield with Jeff Larentowicz which has paid dividends of late.
Many fans were upset at Frank Klopas' decision to drop Daniel Paladini last week (which turned out to be a stroke of genius) but shifting Logan to right back would make room for Paladini to move back into the starting eleven.
Playing away against a team with excellent wingers will require whoever Klopas chooses on the right to be very disciplined and with players like Pause and Videira, we are spoilt for choice.
Pressuring the Montreal backline – don't let them play out of the back
Under new coach Marco Schällibaum, Montreal like to play the ball out of the back whenever possible. This can be problematic, especially when the opposing teams pressure the defenders and goalkeeper when they have the ball.
On a number of occasions this season, Montreal has been too casual when playing the ball out of the back which resulted in great opportunities for the other team. In some matches, even goalkeeper Troy Perkins was caught out trying to pass the ball to one of his defenders instead of just clearing it out of danger.
Because the Fire are playing away, they will almost certainly play on the counter attack, but if the attacking players like Chris Rolfe and Sherjill MacDonald can hound the Impact defense, it could result in a chance from a turnover.
Stifling Di Vaio – cutting of the supply to the frontman
Athletico Coaching Corner with Mike Matkovich
Montreal play with one striker, namely 36-year-old striker Marco Di Vaio. The Italian is not as mobile as he was in his younger days and he relies on his wide and attacking midfielders to get him the ball.
Montreal's wealth of attacking midfielders like ex-Fire winger Justin Mapp, MLS veteran Davy Arnaud and the extremely influential Brazilian Filipe are very difficult to control and when you add Di Vaio playing off the shoulder of the last defender to that mix, it makes it even harder to contain.
Though he lacks pace, the Italian gets himself into great positions and makes very smart runs off the ball. Against the Fire, Montreal will try and get the ball wide to players like Arnaud and Mapp because the Klopas' side will pack the midfield when they are not in possession.
This means the Fire must be wary of Di Vaio's movement in the box and also the late runs by other midfielders who will also be looking to get on the end of a cross.
Prediction: 2-1 Fire with a counter attack goal from Sherjill MacDonald and a goal from a corner by Austin Berry.

We've moved past the Winter Meetings and although there has recently been a few big trades, the buzz surrounding the Orioles had calmed down.
Do you still see the team trading for a bat?
Billy Butler is probably off the board. The only other options I really see:
- Garrett Jones
- Justin Morneau
- Michael Morse if the Nats re-sign Laroche
I would be interested in Morse but the price is probably a bit too high.

I use this soap every time, it helps me to get rid of skin problems, my allergist recommended me this bar.I also use this soap for shaving purpose.
I no longer use conditioner and my shoulder-length hair is doing all right with gentle brushing to spread natural oils along the length and the alternating of the cleansers. I can even blow dry my hair when I really need to, but I usually let it air dry.It also works great as a body wash. (as it is intended to be for the skin) :) My skin is much happier since I have been using it and my son's eczema is better in control since he has started using it instead of soap or body wash.
I have dry, sensitive skin. I've tried a number of cleansers like this one (Cetaphil, Ponds cold cream, Boots cleansing lotion, etc.) and this one seems to work the best. It takes make up off well and doesn't leave behind a 'filmy' feeling if you just wipe off. If you do rinse with water, it doesn't leave you with a tight, squeeky-clean feeling. It really does leave your skin feeling moisturized and yet cleanses enough to get rid of the dirt and make-up! I'm very happy with this cleanser and will purchase again.
Used this when in the hospital then nurses gave it to me to take home. Liked it enough that I not only used it when I physically couldn't shower, but continued to use it in the shower. Really liked this product. CS

What Was "The Program" Before Goldsmith and Comey?
Marty Lederman
"We're doing what?"
Here are two theories:
1) Mueller is involved because the FBI gave national security letters (NSLs) to the phone companies demanding ALL of their records. This caused Comey and Ashcroft concern because it was like a "general warrant" (not for an individual but rather for all customers).
2) Comey and Ashcroft had problems with the phone companies giving the NSA access to all communications via splitters (see Mark Klein testimony in EFF case / Frontline documentary).
In "State of Denial" Bob Woodward says George Tenet approached the CEOs of the phone companies to make the deals. Is this the result of better communication among intelligence agencies. Were the NSA, FBI, and CIA ALL part of this?
[Prof. Lederman, from the post]: A program in which once a U.S. person was suspected of receiving a call from a suspected Al Qaeda individual, that U.S. person's calls were all monitored thereafter?
That's the differene between what FISA does not cover (the "target" is not a U.S. person, in which case anything goes), and what FISA covers (U.S. persons as targets, regardless of who they're calling or called by), for which a FISA court order is required by law.
Normal wiretap equipment required a "target specifier", a phone number or identifier (RADIUS username/login) to identify what's to be snooped and what is not. Without target specifiers, you'd get everything (illegal as well as nigh impossible to do physically).
The defenders of Dubya's spying keep saying; "Don't you want to us to listen in when al Qaeda calls?" The disingenuousness here is that when you're targeting foreign al Qaeda, you can tap away to your heart's content. It's only when you ask for all calls made from or to a U.S. person that FISA kicks in.
If what the maladministration was doing is targeting U.S. persons without a FISA court order, they wer breaking the law.

that is EXACTLY the conclusion
i just reached over at my blog,
too. . . excellent.
. . .If what the maladministration was doing is targeting U.S. persons without a FISA court order, they wer[e] breaking the law. . .
Think about this scenario. You dial a wrong number and it turns out the person on the other end really is a terrorist. You hang up and now all your calls are tapped. Illegal!
Armin Tamzarian:
Think about this scenario. You really are a terrorist who gets an order to initiate the next big 9/11 attack with the code phrase disguised to sound like a "wrong number" call. Better safe than sorry, I say.
After what we've learned these bozos were willing to do with the Justice Department -- poison the entire Federal Court system with political prosecutors and political trials, in order TO WIN ELECTION(s) - and kill the Cunningham and who-knows-what-other-Bushie-crony investigations -- I wouldn't doubt that (Rove) they desperately needed to continue (renew) the secret-wiretaps because they would need it during the lead-up to the 2004 ELECTION...
[Why not?]
Charles: Better to strip away liberties ourselves now than wait for the on-the-run losing terrorists to execute a Fall Weiss, take over our country, and take away the freedoms they hate so very much.
Edited for accuracy. Yet more "I-want-to-surrender-early" logic from the right wing.
You really think terrorists are calling random numbers in the U.S. as part of some grand, master plan? LOL
Professor Lederman:
Thank you for all of your work on this post in response to my previous argument that the NSA program does not appear to have substantially changed after the confrontation between Justice and the White House. I believe this quotation from the NYT summarizes what Justice gained in this confrontation:
For the first time, the Justice Department audited the N.S.A. program, several officials said. And to provide more guidance, the Justice Department and the agency expanded and refined a checklist to follow in deciding whether probable cause existed to start monitoring someone's communications, several officials said.
It appears that Justice simply refined a preexisting checklist to make a determination of probable cause to conduct surveillance. As I posted before, the TSP - the continuous warrantless surveillance of captured al Qaeda telephone numbers with a data mining program which you believe to be illegal - appears to remain unchanged.
Under these circumstances, the "probable cause" required under this Justice checklist is probably a shell of that normally required by the 4th Amendment. There does not appear to be evidence that the user of a surveilled number has committed any particular crime. Rather, the simple fact that the number was in possession of al Qaeda appears to be enough. This would normally qualify as a reasonable suspicion and not rise to traditional probable cause.
There was some speculation that the NSA might have been extending their surveillance to additional numbers which had been in contact with the captured al Qeada numbers, but there was no evidence whether or not such extended surveillance actually took place before the Justice confrontation, was a matter in dispute during that confrontation or continued after the confrontation.
Yesterday, I also speculated in an earlier thread on this subject that Justice's motivation in seeking these changes may have been to assist Justice's negotiations with the FISC which eventually led to the recently reported deal whereby the FISC is reportedly issuing blanket warrants for the entire or substantial parts of the TSP.
While the Truong line of cases holds the 4th Amendment allows warrantless surveillance for intelligence gathering, it generally bars evidence gained for intelligence gathering to be admitted into criminal court. If Justice wants to use the evidence gained under the TSP in court, it needed to get the FISC to issue warrants.
The NYT report appears to reinforce my speculation. The only reason to refine the probable cause rules under which the TSP operates would be to gain warrants.
Arne Langsetmo said...
The defenders of Dubya's spying keep saying; "Don't you want to us to listen in when al Qaeda calls?" The disingenuousness here is that when you're targeting foreign al Qaeda, you can tap away to your heart's content. It's only when you ask for all calls made from or to a U.S. person that FISA kicks in.
In other words, you can gather intelligence at will against al Qaeda when they are overseas, but you cannot do so after they invade the United States?
Bart's "speculation" (a/k/a blowing smoke, making stuff up) does not remotely fit the known facts.
Gonzales has testified that the confrontation with Comey did not even involve the NSA program later disclosed by the administration and named the "Terrorist Surveillance Program," but rather other undisclosed "operational capabilities."
And the outcome of the confrontation -- the revised program that Gonzales and Bush announced in December 2005 -- did not provide for FISA warrants at all! The new warrant procedure, which Gonzales says now supersedes the TSP, was not announced until January 2007, almost three years after the incidents Comey described.
It is not surprising that Prof. Lederman has not responded to this troll's specious disinformation.
You really think terrorists are calling random numbers in the U.S. as part of some grand, master plan? LOL
Did I say that?
My question for you: do you think the terrorists ultimately can win?
If you don't think they can win, they aren't worth sacrificing our rights and principles for.
If you DO think they can win, well, I would say you underestimate the fine men and women on the front lines of this struggle.
Enduring an attack or two shouldn't bring democracy to a halt. Remember the immediate post 9/11 rhetoric: we win by showing them that nothing has changed. Of course, somehow that's evolved into "the world has changed since 9/11"--possibly the worst trope to infest political debate since the liberal-conservative division.
It is interesting to me that all of the articles Marty links to link back to his article (at least some of them cite JaO's argument as well), especially in light of this...
"Bart" DePalma:
[Arne Langsetmo]: The defenders of Dubya's spying keep saying; "Don't you want to us to listen in when al Qaeda calls?" The disingenuousness here is that when you're targeting foreign al Qaeda, you can tap away to your heart's content. It's only when you ask for all calls made from or to a U.S. person that FISA kicks in.
In other words, you can gather intelligence at will against al Qaeda when they are overseas, but you cannot do so after they invade the United States?
No. Nor did I say that. What I said was that FISA was silent WRT taps "targeting" foreign persons (excepting the other clause for wiretaps physically instituted on U.S. soil; perhaps something that does need re-evaluation in light of today's modern telephony). FISA does not bar such wiretaps. FISA also doesn't bar wiretaps of U.S. persons or wiretaps performed on U.S. soil. It just says that if you want to do that, you need a freakin' warrant (or more accurately, the similar FISA court order).
That's just what the law says, "Bart". It's hard to argue about that; it's there for all to read.
Of course, the terrorists can ultimately win, both on the battlefield and here. One nuke exploded over Baghdad would wipe out most of our forces there. It would probably take more than one here. Are you waiting for the smoking gun to be that mushroom cloud?
I think that it's fairly obvious what "the program" was before the confrontation. It was completely open wiretapping within the United States, of any person, without warrants; and, more to the point, it was the elimination of barriers which would prevent the information from being used for political purposes. I can't imagine that in 2004 the Bush Administration was really afraid of the resignation of Ashcroft et al, or of what they might say, so long as they could be painted as "soft on terror" by the people who remained in power; but if there was a chance that they would start saying things which would lead to public awareness that the intelligence and justice systems were once again being used for partisan political gain by a Republican President, that would have been a different story.
Additionally, I speculate that we will ultimately find out that it was not the President who sent Card and Gonzales to Ashcroft's ICU bed, but Karl Rove.
A couple of years back I got word that postal inspectors were complaining about a massive number of orders to hold all mail for certain people to be delivered to federal authorities. That mail was then returned to the post office a day or few later for final delivery to the subject.
Those are all the details I have. The source is trusted by me. I don't know if this was done with or without warrants. But if it wasn't, perhaps this is another piece of the warrantless surveillance program.
Charles: Think about this scenario. You really are a terrorist who gets an order to initiate the next big 9/11 attack with the code phrase disguised to sound like a "wrong number" call. Better safe than sorry, I say.
HAHAHAHAHA. HaHaHaHaHa.
How can one even respond to such a puerile statement? Charles, are you an agente provocateur?
Let's see, what if the trigger is someone posting a stupid right wing troll comment on a legal blog? What If! What If! What If!
What if the trigger is a you-tube movie of two-girls singing inane songs about growing up in Hialeah? What If!
What if the trigger is someone calling into Rush Limbaugh and fawning obsequiously over him, with the nickname CharlesDebarge? What if! What If!
What if the trigger is someone moving three blocks over from an operative, and putting up two american flags? What If! What If!
Do you want the first evidence to be a mushroom cloud? Huhh, Huhh? We must immediately begin full surveillance of every individual in the US, and world wide, by implanting a recording device in their buttocks!
Charles: Of course, the terrorists can ultimately win, both on the battlefield and here. One nuke exploded over Baghdad would wipe out most of our forces there. It would probably take more than one here. Are you waiting for the smoking gun to be that mushroom cloud?
Are you going to surrender? What army is going to occupy us? Do you think Americans are more cowardly than Iraqis?
Are you even an American, Charles - you sure don't sound like one.... Hmmmm, maybe you need to be on that Narus watch-list...
Early last year I recall accounts in the New York Times andWashington Post describing a broad datamining program much more extensive than just wiretapping calls from numbers captured from Al-Qaeda.
The program has touched many more Americans than that. Surveillance takes place in several stages, officials said, the earliest by machine. Computer-controlled systems collect and sift basic information about hundreds of thousands of faxes, e-mails and telephone calls into and out of the United States before selecting the ones for scrutiny by human eyes and ears.
Successive stages of filtering grow more intrusive as artificial intelligence systems rank voice and data traffic in order of likeliest interest to human analysts. But intelligence officers, who test the computer judgments by listening initially to brief fragments of conversation, "wash out" most of the leads within days or weeks.
This was the program that swamped the FBI with so many false leads they started calling them "more calls to Pizza Hut."
Could this be what the Justice Department was objecting to? It would certainly explain why the FBI was so interested; they were tired of being asked to investigate "calls to Pizza Hut."
If you'd rather not answer my question, that's fine with me.
I am not an agente provocateur. I am an American citizen, born and raised here. So, I don't think Americans are cowardly, and I am not going to surrender, especially since I don't think any current army can occupy us. That being said, however, it wouldn't take that many nukes to destroy the United States.
You guys are all looking in the wrong places
Alberto Gonzales forced the resignations of Debra Yang and Lawrence Friedman (Director of US Trustee's in Washington DC)
Lawrence Friedman is only 2 steps down from Gonzales and Lawrence Friedman Removed Roberta DeAngelis as Region 3 Trustee.
Then Lawrence Friedman Resigned and Gonzales promoted Roberta DeAngelis as General Counsel in Washington DC who is now in charge of investigating her own failure to perform!

RE: In re: eToys 01-706 (Delaware Bankruptcy 2001) Conflict of Interest Fee
Disgorgement, Fraud upon the Court, failure to pay disgorgement fee's.
Following up on the phone conversation between the Former Chairman of the Official Creditors Committee of eToys we give you the short version of the situation in the bankruptcy matter of eToys.
1. The case is In re: eToys 01-706 Wilmington Delaware Bankruptcy
2. Traub Bonacquist & Fox "admitted" to placing in his paid associate as "wind-down coordinator" then CEO/President and finally Plan Administrator without seeking Court approval. (Transcript D.I. 2228)
3. The Asst United States Trustee made a Motion to Disgorge on February 15, 2005 stating that the actions were "deliberate –rather than inadvertent". (Disgorge Motion )(D.I. 2195)
4. The Asst UST also stated that the actions were "materially adverse", that the line between "Creditor v Debtor" had been destroyed and that "fraud upon the Court" had occurred because the UST had specifically had conversations with the parties instructing them "not" to engage in such behavior with replacing "key personnel" of the Debtor. (D.I. 2195 p 19 & p 35).
5. The "non-disclosure" of "conflicts of interest" was discovered by Laser Steven Haas where his company Collateral Logistics' Inc. (CLI) was Court approved as the Liquidation agent of the Debtor. Who refused a gratuity and "blew the whistle".
6. There are 140 statutory violations with a great majority of them admitted, including the fact that Traub Bonacquist & Fox paid their associate Barry Gold 4 separate payments of $30,000 each, both pre and post petition filing before placing Barry Gold in as "wind-down coordinator" of the Debtor without seeking Court approval by a hidden hiring letter that permitted Barry Gold to choose, whether or not, to apply per 327(a).
7. The parties that participated in the subterfuge have received over $14 million in fee's and every attempt to examine books & records to verify disgorgement has occurred "properly" has been ignored.
8. The Court issued an Opinion on October 4 2005 that approved an Order that contained the Clause (D.I.2319)
a. WHEREAS the United States Trustee shall not seek to compel any additional disclosures from Traub Bonacquist & Fox.
9. We simply ask that you read the U S Trustee Disgorge Motion Docket
Item 2195 which only addressed 4 of the "non disclosures" out of 140.
Including selling the assets to their connected parties "undisclosed"!

I love exfoliating products

I have tried every exfoliating product on the market some worked , some broke me out! But My sister and I have found one that has changed our lives. It's called Spa-Exfoliare Whole Body Bath Net,It's awesome. I had severe eczema all my life and had these really ugly thick patches on my feet. I never wore sandals until this summer! It is changing my life. Its such a simple tool. It caught us both by surprise. I think it's the best kept secret. I got mine from their site but my sister went to Etsy. I even had better tans this summer because my skin tone was more even. It surprised us that we couldn't find them at our local stores, but I tell everyone I know because it really works! and they don't use chemicals! I love my Bath net, you've got to check them out!

"Tree Hut" makes a fantastic sugar scrub in a variety of scents and it's very affordable! I recently purchased the Bath and Body works True Blue Spa Invigorating Spa Scrub, for which I paid $24.00, and I prefer the Tree Hut stuff, which is under $10.00!

I have used many of these scrubs and they are all awesome. Favorite for sure would have to be The Body Shop scrubs. All of them. Very different smells, work wonders, and a great store for the environment so I don't feel guilty!
by Lamexicana1 Friday, November 9, 2012 at 08:44PM Report as inappropriate
What about scrubs that aren't so strongly scented? I realize that most are "salt" or "sugar" scrubs, but do they actually have to smell overpoweringly salty or sugary?
by schien Sunday, November 4, 2012 at 12:33PM Report as inappropriate
Another option for people looking for a great scrub is to look on etsy or at local soap maker shops. You can get amazing scrubs that contain fewer chemicals and are a fraction of the price. You can check out my scrubs on etsy by searching Scrubxury.

Bejarano Notches 3,000th Win
Jockey Rafael Bejarano earned the 3,000th victory of his career when 1-2 favorite Ondine won the first race Saturday at Betfair Hollywood Park.
The milestone in the $54,000 allowance came less than 12 years after the 30-year-old native of Arequipa, Peru began his career. He won his first race – aboard his initial mount – Dec. 8, 2001 at Hipodromo de Monterrico in Lima.
A winner of four riding titles at Betfair Hollywood Park, Bejarano is the leading jockey at the current Spring/Summer meet. The 3 ¾ length length win by Ondine, a 3-year-old Medaglia d'Oro filly trained by Hall of Famer Bob Baffert for Peachtree Stable, was Bejarano's 16th as he attempts to defend his crown. He ran away with the 2012 Spring/Summer championship, finishing with 74 victories, 25 more than runner-up Edwin Maldonado.
"I'm so happy to do this in front of my friends and people who have always supported me, especially my agent (Joe Ferrer) and valet (Armando Sanchez),'' said Bejarano. "I've had a lot of opportunities since I've come to California.
"I'm really happy for this moment. A week ago somebody told me I only needed seven or eight to get to 3,000, so I was starting to get excited and preparing for it. Nobody can get to 3,000 that easy and I'm really honored to be here.''
The win was the 571st for Bejarano at Hollywood Park. He's been a regular at the historic track since the 2007 Autumn meet.
