Robert Reich: Every CEO of every company that continues to squeeze payrolls (Verizon, are you listening? Ford?) needs to understand they're shooting themselves in the feet. Where do they expect demand for their products and services to come from?
The Right to a Job
Herb Engstrom: At this time of TEA Party hysteria, Fox News mendacity, and GOP hypocrisy a government guarantee of universal employment might seem like a radical idea, although it seemed not to be so to Franklin Roosevelt.
Stock Market Crash: What are the Politics Behind It?
Inflation — Fighting the Last War
Steven Conn: For thirty years inflation has not been a serious threat to the American economy, yet politicians and pundits continually fret about it. The never-ending worry about inflation is like fighting the last war rather than the current one. What's needed today is a war on unemployment and wage stagnation, not inflation.
Blacks and Obama
Sharon Kyle: Even though blacks in America are suffering more than most during this economic crisis, they are least likely to complain that the Obama administration policies are not benefiting them.
Vicious Cycles: Why Washington Is About to Make the Jobs Crisis Worse
Robert Reich: The only way out of the vicious economic cycle is for government to adopt an expansionary fiscal policy — spending more in the short term in order to make up for the shortfall in consumer demand.
Don't Let Doom Merchants Obscure True European Picture
Steven Hill: Fearful headlines hide success stories such as Poland, which show Europe is taking the right steps to economic recovery.
At What Point Does the GOP Become a Hate Group?
David Love: There is no question, based on the evidence, that the GOP is that peculiar institution in which people thrive, based on an alternate set of facts, divorced from reality.
The Swamp of Washington and the Morass of the Economy
Robert Reich: If the Democrats remain silent, the vacuum will be filled by the Republican snake oil of federal spending cuts and cut taxes on big corporations and the wealthy.
Politics of Inaction: The Reality Behind the Jobless Stats
Grover Norquist and the American Dream
Robert Illes: Grover Norquist, toady of America's wealthy business class who few but political wonks have heard of, heads the so called "Club for Growth" which requires every Republican who wants to keep his or her government job to promise not to raise taxes.

That Creepy Website Owner Who Made You Worry About Online Shopping Is Now Going to Jail
Oddly, his website is still up and running.
You may recall reading about DecorMyEyes.com back in December when its owner, Vitaly Borker (also known as "Tony Russo" and "Stanley Bolds"), was charged with selling fake designer sunglasses online, stealing customers' credit card information, and then stalking them and making threatening comments like "I AM WATCHING YOU" when they complained about any or all of the above. He's pleading guilty to all charges and faces fines of at least $250,000 as well as up to 50 years in jail. He'll receive his sentence on September 16, 2011.

NJ Public Safety Deputy Attorney General Files Federal Suit against IBEW Union
IBEW union officials fail to follow federal disclosure guidelines while requiring deputy AG to pay mandatory union fees
Trenton, NJ (March 20, 2015) – A New Jersey Department of Law and Public Safety Deputy Attorney General has filed a federal lawsuit against a local International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) affiliate for violating his rights and refusing to follow federal disclosure requirements.
James Bennett filed the suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey with free legal assistance from National Right to Work Foundation staff attorneys.
Even though Bennett is not a member of the IBEW Local 33 union, he must still accept union officials' monopoly bargaining "representation." Further, IBEW Local 33 union officials force him and other nonmembers at his workplace to pay the equivalent of 85 percent of full union dues, the maximum amount allowed under state law, as a condition of employment.


text: newsroom Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site - A Story of Resistance By Andrea Chalfin & Jake Brownell • Jul 2, 2015 During the Cold War, the Army began making land acquisitions to develop a training site where mountain post soldiers could prepare for war in an environment similar to potential areas for deployment. The result was the establishment of the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site, an over 200,000 acre training area in Southeastern Colorado. More than 20 years later, in 2006, the Army sought to expand the site. Instead, they met a local organized resistance, and were unable to extend their training ground. Colorado's Evolution Toward Marriage Equality Has Been Incremental, But Quick By Bente Birkeland • Jun 26, 2015 Current and former Colorado state Democratic lawmakers are praising the U.S. Supreme Court's decision legalizing same sex marriage nationwide. In the 5-4 decision, the court ruled that same-sex couples have a right to marry under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. "Today is an amazing day for America and equality, said Democratic former Speaker of the House Mark Ferrandino, who served as Colorado's first gay speaker and helped pass a bill to make civil unions legal in the state. "I knew we would get to this day in my life time, but never thought it would come so quickly. I am so proud of our nation's ability to move towards full equality for all people. The work is not done to end all discrimination but today was a gigantic step forward." Construction Changes to Cause Loss of Pueblo Levee Mural Sooner than Expected By Shanna Lewis • Jun 24, 2015 Shanna Lewis / KRCC A lot of dirt needs to get moved to repair the Arkansas River levee in Pueblo, and plans for the repairs are changing so that dirt can be put to use on other projects. Those changes may affect efforts to preserve historic sections of the murals painted on the levee. Originally plans called for reducing the height of the levee by 12 feet in phases, but now other projects can use the dirt quicker than first thought. Pueblo Conservancy District consulting engineer Kim Kock said that means they need to keep moving forward. Colorado's IUD Program Remains Confident On Continuing, Still Seeking State Support By Bente Birkeland • Jun 24, 2015 Despite state lawmakers failing to pass a bill to fund the effort, a program to provide long acting reversible birth control to young, low-income women in Colorado is being extended for another year. The long acting contraceptives, according to state figures, have helped cut teen pregnancy rates in the state by 40 percent. Abortions have gone down too. High Water Levels Prompt State Park Restrictions By Madeleine Schmidt • Jun 18, 2015 Record-breaking rains leading to high water levels have prompted Colorado Parks and Wildlife to restrict access in some recreational areas. Boat ramps, shoreline access points and parking areas are limited at Lake Pueblo State Park. The department isn't sure when they'll reopen. Near Lake George, the South Platte River is running usually high, resulting in the closure of Spinney Mountain State Park's river access lot. The department is discouraging fishing along many areas of the river. From the Statehouse to the Ballotbox By Bente Birkeland • Jun 18, 2015 clipart.com It's been more than a month since Colorado lawmakers wrapped up their annual legislative session at the state capitol, but the work is far from over. Many of the bills that failed this year will likely be back next year, and some long-standing issues may already be poised to go before voters in 2016. "I've worked on issues that have taken a couple of years to get through," said Representative Don Coram (R-Montrose). Shooks Run Planning Kicks Off With Meeting By Madeleine Schmidt • Jun 17, 2015 The City of Colorado Springs is looking at the future of Shooks Run, a corridor located east of downtown between Fountain Creek and Patty Jewett Golf Course. The first of several public workshops takes place on Thursday, kicking off a 16-month collaborative planning process called Envision Shooks Run. The project will create a plan to address issues like drainage, multi-modal transportation, and urban planning to help improve infrastructure and enhance the corridor. Survey: Nearly 14% of Colorado Adults Use Pot By Madeleine Schmidt • Jun 16, 2015 CDPHE In a newly released survey, the state Health Department says nearly 14% of Colorado adults currently use marijuana. Of those who currently use pot, one third use it every day. About 19 percent drove after using. Slightly more than half of Colorado adults have never tried marijuana. The survey also showed young adults aged 18 to 24 are ten times more likely to use pot than older adults over the age of 65. Record Breaking Rain in Colorado Springs; Sandbags Available By Andrea Chalfin • Jun 16, 2015 The National Weather Service in Pueblo says Colorado Springs received a record breaking 3.16 inches of rain Monday. The old record, set more than a century ago in 1914, was 2.27 inches. The record-breaking day comes after a record-breaking month of May, which, for the most part, removed southern Colorado from lingering drought conditions. Colorado Supreme Court: Yes, You Can Fire Someone Over MMJ By Bente Birkeland • Jun 15, 2015 Brett Levin Flickr / Creative Commons The Colorado Supreme Court ruled unanimously on Monday that companies can legally fire employees for using medical marijuana, even off duty. The decision is based on the case of Brandon Coats. He is a quadriplegic who takes medical marijuana to control muscle spasms in his legs. Dish Network fired him from his job as a customer service representative in 2010 after he failed a random drug test. Coats then sued for unlawful termination. Business groups praised the court's decision. Officials Urge Changes to Wildfire Prevention, Suppression Funding By Bente Birkeland • Jun 15, 2015 Bente Birkeland / RMCR After a mild and wet spring, temperatures along the Front Range are expected to soar this week and that has fire managers on edge. The Secretaries of Interior and Agriculture are using this lull in the fire season to call for changes in how the federal government funds wildfire suppression. While Colorado has experienced much needed rain, fire officials are still expecting an average fire season. Developing Colorado with Water Conservation in Mind By Maeve Conran • Jun 10, 2015 clipart.com Finding enough water to meet the demands of the booming Front Range has city planners closely looking at how new developments can be built with water conservation as a key component. With the second draft of the State Water Plan scheduled for release in July, many water advocates are hoping to see the issue of land use addressed. Colorado has experienced massive population growth in the last few years, and that trend is projected to continue. Reporter Roundtable: Bills Signed, Bills Vetoed By Bente Birkeland • Jun 8, 2015 KRCC The deadline for bills that passed during the state's legislative session to become law or get vetoed was Friday. Measures are either signed by the Governor or become law without his signature. Some proposals have large signing ceremonies, while others are done quietly. Bente Birkeland talks to state capitol reporters about some of the measures. Expanded Training at Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site Receives Approval By Andrea Chalfin • Jun 4, 2015 Andrea Chalfin / KRCC The Department of Defense has approved plans to modify and increase training at the Army's Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site in Southern Colorado.

Previously schools had absolute immunity. The law would cap damages at $900,000 for multiple injuries per incident. Governor Hickenlooper says the state has experienced its fair share of tragedies in schools and hopes the law will make students safer. Pueblo Nature and Raptor Center Cares for Rare California Condor By Madeleine Schmidt & Andrea Chalfin • Jun 3, 2015 Jason Turner / Photo courtesy: Pueblo Nature and Raptor Center A member of the endangered California condor species was found far from home in a backyard near Colorado Springs. The large bird was taken to the Nature and Raptor Center of Pueblo after being picked up by the Ellicott Wildlife Rehabilitation Center and transported via Colorado Parks and Wildlife volunteers. Diana Miller, director of the Pueblo Nature and Raptor Center, said the bird was in good condition, despite being a little thin. It was sent Tuesday morning to the Peregrine Fund in Arizona to be reintroduced into the wild. Suthers Sworn in as Colorado Springs' Newest Mayor By Andrea Chalfin • Jun 2, 2015 Andrea Chalfin / KRCC Colorado Springs' newest mayor was sworn into office Tuesday with a ceremony outside the Pioneers Museum. Former state Attorney General John Suthers took the oath of office as city council, employees, residents and military representatives watched. Oil & Gas Issues Still Simmer after Task Force, Session By Bente Birkeland • Jun 1, 2015 clipart.com Energy development is always a hot topic at the statehouse, but 2015 was oddly quiet. Even with recommendations from a task force studying the issue, state lawmakers did little this past session where oil and gas drilling is concerned. As a result, some of the more long-standing issues as local control and public health concerns are still simmering. Feds Announce New Plans For Sage Grouse Protection By Bente Birkeland • May 28, 2015 The Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service has announced a new plan to protect the greater sage grouse from extinction, while hoping to prevent the bird from being added to the endangered species list. The sage grouse population has dropped from 16 million birds to less than half a million, mainly due to lost sagebrush habitat. The bird's range spans 11 western states including Colorado. "As land managers of two-thirds of greater sage grouse habitat, we have a responsibility to take action that ensures a bright future for wildlife and a thriving western economy," said Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell at the announcement in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Governor Responds to Human Services Criticisms By Bente Birkeland • May 28, 2015 Bente Birkeland / RMCR Governor John Hickenlooper joined the head of the Department of Human Services in their first public appearance together since lawmakers called for Hickenlooper to overhaul the department, and possibly fire the executive director. Rural Communities, and the Ebb and Flow of Severance Taxes By Bente Birkeland • May 26, 2015 Bente Birkeland / RMCR As a result of Colorado's booming oil production, energy companies are paying more in severance taxes – money they pay the state for taking minerals out of the ground. Half of it is supposed to go to back to local communities, both directly and through grants. But thanks to market forces and political conditions in Denver, it's not always a stable source of funding. CDOT Approves $1 Million for the Southwest Chief By Bente Birkeland • May 21, 2015 Steve Wilson / Flickr - Creative Commons The Colorado Department of Transportation Commission voted unanimously to approve $1 million to help preserve the Southwest Chief rail line in southern Colorado. It's part of a route that stretches from Chicago to Los Angeles. The aging track needs major upgrades or Amtrak will have to reroute the line out of Colorado and parts of New Mexico and Kansas. The train stops in Lamar, La Junta and Trinidad, in southeastern Colorado. Farmers Step Up To Solve Rocky Mountain National Park's Pollution Problem By Stephanie Paige Ogburn & Luke Runyon • May 21, 2015 It's May in Rocky Mountain National Park, but on a mountainside 10,829 feet above sea level, snow is falling. It's pelting Jim Cheatham, a biologist with the National Park Service. Shrugging off the cold, Cheatham seizes a teachable moment. This snow, he said, holds more than just water. "Chances are it's carrying the excess nitrogen we're talking about," mused Cheatham. For the past eight years, the biologist has spent most of his time thinking about how nitrogen pollution is changing the park's forests, wildflowers, and alpine lakes. He's also been looking for a way to stop it.

"And so I take delight in the political victory tonight, but tomorrow, we hit the ground running and working very very hard." Colorado Springs, El Paso County Officials Seek Disaster Assistance By Andrea Chalfin • May 19, 2015 Colorado Springs officials are seeking disaster assistance after rain in early May caused an estimated $8.2 million in damages to public infrastructure, including roads, stormwater, and parks and trails.

Durbar Square
The temples and palaces that still surround the bustling Durbar Square demonstrate the intricacy of Newar architecture, characterized by carved wooden windows and fine brickwork. The structures of the palace complex now house the King Tribhuwan Memorial Museum, the Mahendra Museum and the bizarre Kumari Chowk, a gilded palace where a young girl lives who is worshiped as the human incarnation of the goddess Durga. You can sometimes catch a glimpse of the current Kumari through her palace windows. During the Indra Jatra festival each September, the Kumari is paraded in her chariot through the square.

About Me
I love photographing ridiculously good-looking people. Here are the basics...
When will I get the images?
I like to give you a disk with the images on it on your way out the door so you can have fun reviewing them and picking out your favorites. Often the images on my portfolio are heavily post-produced, and it can take a week or two to get the finals from me, delivered via email/dropbox.
Can I bring my entourage?
I prefer to work with no extra people on set.
Will you shoot my cousin Shanna?
Maybe. I'm *very* selective about who I shoot these days. I generally prefer to work only with very experienced female models who have a particular look. Occasionally I'll work with newer models if I think they really have something special.
What kind of wardrobe should I bring?
Take a look at my portfolio and you can see the type of wardrobe I normally shoot. Ultimately, though, it's up to you. Experience tells me you'll probably end up with pictures wearing 3 different outfits. Feel free to bring several outfits and we can go through them and decide together. Everything you bring should fit in one duffle bag.
Are you a weirdo?
Why, yes. Yes, I am. Thank you for noticing.
How does a typical shoot go?
Usually we'll meet for a fun, quick, totally casual shoot at a park. Once I determine you're not a total psycho, we can head to my studio nearby. Then we'll look at outfits and decide what to shoot first, second and third. If you're still learning how to pose, I have a big mirror and a computer monitor serving up different poses for you to try if you want. I think the ideal shoot is 60-90 minutes, and if you have time afterwards it can be fun to go through the images on a big monitor and choose favorites. I burn you a disk, and you're on your way!

At the beginning of pre-season this summer, Sampdoria's coaching staff received a new toy to play with. Designed by local company Flyonaction, it was an orange drone with four rotor blades and a camera attached to its undercarriage. Created with filming training for analysis in mind, Samp's players had to get used to it whirring overhead as coach Delio Rossi put them through their paces at Bogliasco.
Associated with spy games and modern warfare, the drone was unnecessary in the detection of an intruder at the club's training ground on Friday. While observing the players practice ahead of the weekend's Derby della Lanterna, Samp's team manager Giorgio Ajazzone noticed something moving in the trees around the perimeter. Communications director Alberto Marangon went with him to check it out.
It could just be a mushroom picker, they said to each other, but you never know. Instead they found a man in full camouflage gear, the uniform of the Bundeswehr, dressed as though he were on a military operation. Ajazzone recognised the face. It was Luca de Prá, Genoa's youth team goalkeeping coach and grandson of the club's greatest ever shot stopper Giovanni, the man who had been between the sticks when the Grifone last won the Scudetto back in 1924.
Just what was he up to? A pair of binoculars by his side suggested de Prá had been on an espionage mission behind enemy lines. Such incidents aren't uncommon in Italian football of course. "Come on! We all do it," de Prá protested. He's not wrong.
Samp's former manager Walter Mazzarri has been known to send his assistant Claudio Nitti out On Mazzarri's Secret Service. A master of disguise, he has done reconnaissance on opponents dressed as a cyclist tending to a puncture or as a casual shopper on his way home from the Supermarket.
Aware of his old coach's antics, Beppe Marotta, the former Samp director of sport who left to become Juventus' general manager in 2010 had his security detail comb the Olympic Sport Centre in Beijing prior to their encounter with Mazzarri's Napoli in the Italian Super Cup a year ago. They discovered Nitti in a judo hall with a perfect view of the pitch on which Juventus were training.
But back to de Prá. Described as a "Rambo genoano" by La Gazzetta dello Sport, he found himself in a compromised position. For all he knew Samp could take him hostage, demand a ransom [how about three points?] or make him sing "Doria Olè, Doria Olè, Forza Doria, Doria Olè." Please, de Prá presumably thought, anything but that.
Comparatively speaking, he got off lightly. Pulling out his camera, Ajazzone declared: "I've caught you red-handed," and snapped a picture. A short while later it was posted on Sampdoria's official website with an amusing accompanying statement. They were to act in accordance with the Geneva or should that be the Genova convention? "No prisoner has been taken," it read. "the soldier was free to return to his base. We must always forgive our enemies. Nothing annoys them more."
Like the IMF, Genoa disavowed all knowledge of de Prá's actions. He was at Bogliasco on his own initiative, they said, and as punishment he'd be suspended by the club.
In hindsight, Samp's supporters now wonder whether their club were perhaps too magnanimous in their handling of de Prá. Did he know too much about Samp and their plans for Sunday's game? The result would indicate that he did. After being knocked out of the Coppa Italia by La Spezia and losing both of their opening games in Serie A this season, Fabio Liverani's first win as coach of Genoa came in this game of all games. And it wasn't just any win either.
A volley from the former Samp loanee Luca Antonini, a tap in from Emanuele Calaio and a trademark Francesco Lodi free-kick contributed to a 3-0 victory, the biggest ever recorded by the 'away' side in this derby.
Running to celebrate with his players, Liverani went under the Gradinata Nord at full-time to savour the moment. It was, he said, an "indescribable joy." Mission accomplished for de Prá.
Afterwards, Genoa president Enrico Preziosi announced that de Prá "will be reintegrated because it's the right thing to do." And there you have it, the Derby della Lanterna, with a final chapter that reads like John Le Carré's 'A spy who came in from the cold.'

|Deprotecting Thioacetyl-Terminated Terphenyldithiol for Assembly on Gallium Arsenide
|May 08, 2008
|We characterize the assembly of terphenyldithiol (TPDT) on gallium arsenide from ethanol (EtOH) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a function of ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) concentration. NH4OH facilitates the conversion of thioacetyl end groups of the TPDT precursor to thiolates in the assembly solution. The final structure of TPDT assembled on GaAs is not only sensitive to the assembly solvent but also to NH4OH concentration. In the presence of low concentrations of NH4OH (1 mM), TPDT assemblies from EtOH are oriented upright. The same assemblies are less upright when adsorption is carried out at higher NH4OH concentrations. In THF, TPDT does not adsorb significantly on GaAs at low NH4OH concentrations. The surface coverage and structural organization of these assemblies improve with increasing NH4OH concentrations, although these assemblies are never as organized as those assembled from EtOH. The difference in the final structure of TPDT assemblies is attributed to differences in the thiolate fraction in the assembly solution at the point of substrate immersion.

Who says that a chicken dinner can't be elegant? If you're not into beef but want something special for the New Year, this delicious alternative will impress even the fussiest guest. Double the recipe for more people, if needed. Enjoy!
1. Place each chicken breast between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet or heavy skillet, pound each breast until it is uniformly about one-quarter-inch thick. Season each piece with one-fourth teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Place each breast on top of a large piece of plastic wrap or wax paper.
2. In a large skillet, heat the butter and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken, one piece at a time, and saute until golden-brown, about 2 1/2 minutes on the first side and 30 seconds on the other. Remove the chicken to a plate. Set aside in a warm place.
3. Drain the excess fat from the pan and add the remaining tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the pancetta and saute until browned, about 2 minutes. Add the shallot and saute for 1 minute, until tender, then add the garlic and saute just until aromatic, a few seconds, being careful not to brown. Add the wine, stirring to scrape up the browned bits at the bottom of the pan.
4. Stir in the chicken broth, the Espelette pepper, thyme and tomatoes. Allow the sauce to come to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes so that the flavors develop. Stir in the olives.
5. Add the chicken back to the pan, spooning the sauce over it. Cook for 1 minute, then remove the chicken to a plate. Spoon the sauce evenly over each piece, and serve immediately.
Servings: 2
Total time: 35 minutes

Updated Cubs 2014 Minor League Camp Rosters (3/20)
The Cubs have added a couple of 25-year old "suspects" to Minor League Camp, acquiring 1B Matt Scioscia from the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for 1B-OF Trevor Gretzky, and signing RHP Reinier Roibal (ex-SF).
The 6'3 230 Roibal was a high-profile Cuban defector signed by the Giants in 2010, but he was unable to work his way out of Lo-A ball after three seasons in the Giants organization, and was released at the end of Minor League Camp this time a year ago. He then spent the 2013 season pitching for the Newark Bears in the independent Atlantic League.
The son of Angels manager Mike Scioscia, the right-handed hitting Matt Scioscia was selected by the Angels in the 45th round of the 2011 draft as a college senior out of the University of Notre Dame, where he had been a catcher, first-baseman, and DH. The Angels moved him to 1B full-time in 2013, but like Roibal, the younger Scioscia has been unable to progress, hitting a combined 194/248/224 in 46 games (146 PA) between AZL Angels, Burlington, and Inland Empire in 2013.
I strongly suspect the Cubs will immediately move Scioscia back to catcher, the one position in the Cubs system that lacks quality depth, perhaps hoping that his catching "bloodlines" might awaken. The Cubs are also probably hoping a change of scenery might help the younger Scioscia fulfill his promise, but at age 25 he won't have a lot of time to show what he can do.
21-year old Trevor Gretzky is (of course) the son of hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, and was the Cubs 7th round pick in the 2011 June draft. But through no fault of his own, he was seemingly buried in a Cubs system that is chock full of outfielders with promise. The younger Gretzky never fully recovered from right shoulder surgery (he suffered a torn labrum while playing QB in a football game his senior year in HS) and so he been has been relegated to playing only DH, LF, or 1B in pro ball. (He has what is sometimes called a "rag arm"). However, he doesn't have the HR power you would want out of DH, 1B, or LF, he has just average speed so he doesn't profile as a CF, and he is a below average defender at both 1B and LF. What the younger Gretzky does have is decent eye/hand coordination, a good eye for the strike zone, and a nice opposite-field line-drive stroke at the plate (albeit without any HR power).
2014 CUBS MINOR LEAGUE CAMP ROSTERS (last updated 3-20-2014):
NOTE: ROSTERS AT MINOR LEAGUE CAMP ARE FLUID. Minor League players are often initially assigned to a squad one or even two levels above where they will ultimately be assigned once the regular season starts. Minor League Camp roster assignments are based on several factors, including the player's position as it relates to the specific needs of the organization, and the player's age, amount of professional experience, and previous season's performance (including any time spent at a post-season Instructional League). As players are sent to Minor League Camp from the Major League squad during the course of Spring Training, there are corresponding roster moves made at Minor League Camp as players are either moved down a level or released.

Thanks, Phil.
Thanks, Phil.
1. Doesn't look like any significant new listing of injured pitchers, at least not among the more noteworthy prospects.
2. Did we ever find out what Michael Jensen missed last season for? TJ, or something less substantial? Would be fun if he bounced back well.
3. Phil, you don't list Bruno as non-participating. Is he actually throwing the ball overhand, and able to participate in fielding drills or maybe even exhibition games (defensively) already?
4. Note: I'm not sure there are a lot of very significant pitching prospects in the big-league camp who will go down and trickle-down push minor leaguers down levels. In other words, I don't think pitchers on the Iowa group are going to get dropped and take Tennessee rotation spots, other than possibly Vizcaino, Rivero, or perhaps Rondon. For the most part, I think the Tennessee rotation will primarily be populated by guys already with Tennessee pool.
5. Seems Daytona could be short for rotation on good prospects, and Kane overstocked. I wonder if they have any consideration to actually starting Zastryzy and/or Skulina right out at Daytona, to clear the piggy-back/rotation spots at Kane? Seems unlikely, but Kane looks like it will be crowded with rotation options, and Daytona might look pretty uninteresting rotation-wise.
Phil, one other question:
Phil, one other question: When XST gets rolling, there are usually lots of Latin guys there. Are those guys already at Mesa practicing, and just on the "Boise" roster at this stage? Or are a lot of them still at the DSL to avoid crowding, and once the Cubs and the minor league teams move out, then a bunch of the international kids will move in then?
Thanks for your thoughts,
Thanks for your thoughts, Phil. As you say, there are a 10+ guys already at Kane who could start, so if Skulina and Zastryzny were to go there, that would clutter it even more. So yeah, if those guys did look advanced and mature enough for Daytona, that could really set up a batch of nice rotations everywhere. But Kane could have lots of piggy-backs, I think, and some of those guys to XST or relief.
I'd thought Wells might step up to Tennessee, (with Loosen to relief), but he's young, two seasons back was largely lost to injury, and I think a lot of last year was "getting through healthy" rather than necessarily working on breaking stuff. So no problem with him staying at Daytona. Probably just a guy, not fast enough, no excellent breaking ball, not enough control, and probably not healthy enough either. But his movement is quite good, so that if the control/velocity/breaking ball stepped up, he might become a nice value.
Also glad Jensen seems healthy enough where you think he's rotation track.
You mentioned three new Latin pitchers. Have you seen Luis Hernandez throw? He's listed as 6'5" 210-pounds, a big guy; and he only pitched 9 games or so in DSL. Surprised he's over so quickly; hopefully that means he's got a power arm?
Thanks, I'd wondered about
Thanks, I'd wondered about Jordan Hankins. If he can't catch, his chances as an infielder are probably pretty remote.
So, Phil, you listed Mark Malave as a catcher; does it look like he's exclusively catcher these days? Has he filled out very much physically?
Are there any hitters who look noticeably stronger/more powerful? Obviously physical maturation is central to the scouting/projection game. But not every pitcher who's hoped to mature into 5 more mph does, nor every hitter who's projected to perhaps hit HR's when they mature.
Thanks, Phil, good stuff.
Thanks, Phil, good stuff. Candelario showing increased long-ball both-sides power is very good news. He's had strong splits, and given that he's never going to be average-at-best defensively at any position, serious HR production is essential if he is to become an asset starter.
Interesting that Hanneman showed reasonable power. Don't know what we'll have with him, but a lot easier to make it work if he's got more Michael Barrett power than Theriot/Barney type situation. But encouraging to read something a little encouraging in that regard.
Geiger this could be interesting year. Balanced and improving hitting approach, but it's all about the HR-power for him. If he hits enough HR's without selling out to do so, then all of his offensive numbers will grow and he'll be valuable. He's an under-the-radar guy who could conceivably put up some pretty big numbers in AA at age 22, in which case he could generate more discussion.
Thanks for Malave observations. Interesting that he's back to full-time catcher. Like Geiger and Candelario, seems yet another case where power is the key. Hopefully something will happen so that he starts to translate some of his power potential into actual HR's. He's been so young and new, but thus far his actual results have been no-HR output, mostly singles and walks offensively. His defense isn't going to get him far as a contact hitter. For him to really make it, I assume it will again need to be as an average-at-best defender with enough offense to more than make up for it. With HR's, maybe; no HR's, not likely.

this is one of the worst
this is one of the worst places for a foot bruise.
There is no good place for a foot bruise but as long as he didn't break his calcaneus (heel) it might just be a few days off. Also have to be careful not to develop plantar fascitis (inflamed arch support) or achilles tendonitis. It it's not better in a day or two, they usually get an MRI, which can identify a bone bruise or subtle fracture (assuming the more basic x-rays are negative).
You probably have read since
You probably have read since your comment that Baez says he's had this happen before, and it comes from wearing metal cleats - and that he normally grinds one of them down when he has to wear them. Anyway, it sounds like it was pretty minor. One thing about Baez is it seems like he goes all out in everything he does, from his swing to everything else. It's probably not a question of if, but when he'll get hurt. You can't ask a guy to not go all out, that's even more dangerous I think when it comes to potential injury, but I know that once he gets up to the big club I'm going to brace myself for that injury and hope nothing major happens. Of course, he could be quite the specimen and his body may simply be able to withstand a lot of punishment. I sure hope he learns to take a walk or two down there.

Carlos Rodon slipping...losing a little velocity, control off this spring although last start was much better. Brady Aiken moves to #1 according to Law at least. Jeff Hoffman hasn't been doing too great either. Tyler Kolek(HS) and Tyler Beede in that top 5 mix at the moment as well most likely.
More links.
also this Baez note in the Keith Law chat
Mike (Chicago) Seen anything from Baez to think he'd be successful from the get go this spring or is it just feasting on spring training pitching? He sure hits the ball hard and far.
Klaw (1:56 PM) He's always done that, but I worry that his contact rate overall will be very low if he starts the year in the majors. Huge, huge ability, just not as advanced a hitter as the spring might indicate.

hampton had control issues early and valentine had a short visit to the mound where he simply told hampton "throw the goddamn ball over the goddamn plate." and walked away.
the announcers chuckled, apologized, and stated they wouldn't be using that mic anymore.

I want this Australian series to end just so 'journalists' will stop making stupid puns. Plus, why the hell is the opening series a week before the rest of the games? Selig is a fart.
people in the past complained
people in the past complained a lot about the international game/regular season scheduling being so close to the "real" season involving a lot of wear/tear/jetlag/fatigue/etc on doing all the travel + PR + actual games...so they're giving the teams a chance to do all the crap while giving them time to come back and recharge.
my biggest issue with the "new" scheduling is the erratic as hell "some teams get strategic breaks in april, some teams get none" scheduling that's been going on for a few years.
this year the cubs (and many other teams) get royally screwed with almost no "strategic" days off when april was traditionally a time where teams could count on a 2-3+ week schedule with strategic days off to accommodate using a 4-man rotation schedule and allowing for april weather makeup games in an unpredictable time of year.
it's also kinda weird to see interleague play in april...whatever...

i don't get "making the games count" either...out of all the things people/fans would care about with visiting mlb baseball, the matter of whether it "counts" or not would probably be low on the list as long as they can persuade teams to treat it with more respect than a spring training game when it comes to lineups/pitching/substitutions.

The Cubs have some tough cuts
The Cubs have some tough cuts to make yet, but looking at the Iowa roster, there are some questions to be answered there.
Pitchers: Hendricks, Jokisch, Beeler, Negrin, Rhee, Loux, Pimentel, Vizcaino, Batista, Zych, Hottovy, Hatley, Gutierrez, Coleman, Espino, McNutt, Mateo, Rivero, and Rosscup.
Catchers: Cutler, Lopez, and Flores.
Infielders: L.Anderson, Alcantara, Villanueva, Watkins, E. Gonzalez, Mota, Baez,and Valaika.
Outfielders: Szczur, Ha, Andreoli, B. Jackson, Meier Wells,and Vitters.
Plus, there are a bunch more cuts coming. It should be interesting.
AZ Phil, do you care to give us your guesses?

Certainly might be the hottest pitcher right now, but he's behind a few pitchers by most objective full season standards.
Well noted. You may also note that Lester's Career Playoff ERA is almost a full point lower, and he has a lower WHIP as well.
Can't have everything, I guess.
i'm happy enough with the Lester signing, but Scherzer has more than earned the extra money so far. If he was in the rotation instead of Lester, this team would feel practically bulletproof to me.
Blaspheme maybe, but I think Scherzer is the best pitcher in the NL right now.

Perfect storm of strong desire, weak skill may have sunk Yogi
by Gordon Reid on 8 Jul 2012
Last sight of the 60m motor yacht Yogi, which sank in Greek waters in February .. .
In February this year a yacht which had just won accolades as 'The Most Innovative Yacht for 2011', the motoryacht Yogi, sank in Greek waters (see Sail-World http://www.sail-world.com/CruisingAus/Most-Innovative-yacht-in-mystery-sinking/94002!story). Here yachting writer Gordon Reid, also a professional yacht consultant and delivery captain, talks about how poor seamanship may have been responsible for the sinking of the 60m yacht:
I'm an old sea-dog. I can recognize a storm brewing.
The 'perfect storm' can be described as the collision of two weather systems: one a high pressure, cold stable air mass circulating in a clockwise direction (in the northern hemisphere); the other a depression or low pressure warm air mass circulating in a counterclockwise direction.
I offer this metaphor to describe an emerging phenomena in the yachting industry in Asia. More than $500 million will be spent on yachts and equipment in the next 12 months. Most aspiring owners are long on love of yachts and yachting, but a wee short on seamanship and practical experience, hence a perfect storm.
The recent sinking of the 60m M/Y Yogi in a mistral off Skyros, Greece, has popped yacht safety onto the front page of industry publications. Not to put too fine a point on this accident, but it begs more questions than it answers.
M/Y Yogi foundered due to what the Greek Coast Guard reported as mechanical failure. In other words, the engines stopped.
The usual suspect when this occurs in heavy weather is fuel starvation. My hypothesis goes something like this: During construction the fuel tanks are exposed to litter from construction crews. The plot thickens when the first force eight gale begins to stir the pot.
Inertia forces sediment off the bottom of the tank and into suspension in the fuel. Small particles of foreign matter begin to clog the screens on the fuel pick-up pipes. Soon, the fuel pumps are working overtime to maintain pressure to the injectors. The injectors begin to 'hunt' for fuel pressure; engines rev up and down without throttle control and die. The emergency begins.
Without power, the yacht lays a-hull, at the mercy of beam seas. She rolls rail to rail through an arc of almost 180 degrees. Imagine the rinse cycle in a washing machine; imagine searching for the source and solution to the malfunction in such a cycle. The chief engineer cannot work alone and the skipper should not leave the bridge. The rest of the crew may be willing, but they may be ill equipped to achieve a re-start in a roller-coaster engine room full of scalding iron.
Waves crash into vulnerable top deck ports and hatches; cute French doors crash and allow the sea access to below decks. The yacht lists, which signals the final throes. The only maneuver that can save a yacht in these conditions is to deploy a sea anchor, which is usually not standard equipment on a designer yacht. The crew is ordered to abandon ship. The yacht fills with seawater and goes down by the head.
By contrast, long line tuna boats routinely fish in ocean conditions far worse than a force eight mistral in the Med. But their power systems are routinely maintained by professional crews, and their ports, hatches and doors are small in size and indestructible in construction. Modern expedition yachts are also well designed and built to take a sea.
Who is responsible for clean fuel tanks on a new yacht: the construction crew, yard manager, president of the shipyard, insurance agent, brokerage firm, sales agent, dock master, delivery captain, regulatory agencies, owner?
Reality is that that none will fill this role.
The design flaws of the modern motoryacht are hatched on the palette of the marine architect usually as a result of modern aesthetics. Professional skippers have to operate yachts within design parameters. In some cases, this means they must reschedule trips to avoid bad weather and adverse sea conditions, often to the dismay of owners.
Mechanical malfunctions usually occur as a result of lack of seamanship and maintenance. Rarely does a piece of equipment fail due to a mechanical defect.
What measures could have been taken to mitigate the M/Y Yogi accident?
Yacht design: Center-of-gravity and balance must be calculated and considered when a skipper plans a voyage.
Weather: Reports of pending mistrals are routinely forecast days in advance in the Mediterranean.
Maintenance: The skipper (and chief engineer) should personally verify that all power systems are well maintained.
Schedule: The single most preventable factor in yacht accidents is a schedule that forces procedure into decreasingly favorable conditions.
Storm Covers: Strong, temporary sea covers should be routinely installed over all vulnerable ports, hatches and doors before putting to sea. It is too late to install storm covers after weather conditions deteriorate.
It goes without saying that venturing away from the dock can be risky business. But professional skippers and crew can preempt most hazards by thorough planning and the use of check lists.
Editor's Note:
This surely applies to leisure sailors as well!
