Absent Healing NPL healing (New Personality and Life) is a new effective form of absent healing. Many problems for which there was no solution before can be remedied by NPL. But above all, NPL healing (New Personality and Life) is a technique for personal growth, for people who want to fundamentally improve their personality and to release all possible talents and abilities.

CRPS Pain Relief Our mission is to be a reliable, timely and complete resource on the internet for people suffering from CRPS. The onset of CRPS carries with it several symptoms, which include persistent pain and swelling in the affected limb as well as perceptible changes in skin color and temperature. According to studies done on CRPS and its symptoms, some patients undergo mild cases of the condition and eventually recover without any long-term problems. Some cases, however, are not as fortunate. In more severe attacks, patients are unable to recover completely and are left with disabilities for a lifetime. These injuries can be devastating, causing physical and emotional distress, as well as loss of wages. http://www.ernstlawgroup.com/category/brain-injury/.

Interested parties will have more time to comment on the FAA's proposal to require all air-tour operators to be certified under air carrier regulations. Since the proposal was published last October, the FAA has received more than 1,160 comments, many of them asking for an extended comment period and a public forum. In response, the FAA has pushed the comment deadline from last month to April 19, but the agency doesn't believe that all interested parties would be able to assemble for a public meeting.
Instead, the FAA said it would hold a "virtual public meeting" on the Internet "to allow participation by as many as possible." A notice on the Internet meeting will be published in the near future. Under the proposal, several hundred commercial air-tour operators that are currently permitted to operate under Part 91 (those that fly within 25 miles nonstop to and from the same airport) will have to become certified under Part 135 or 121. Part 91 operators would get 180 days from the effective date of the new rules to file for certification. For more information contact Alberta Brown at the FAA's air transport division by calling (202) 267-8166.

PICTURES: Aylsham High School Class of 2012 prom at Wolterton Hall
PUBLISHED: 11:24 02 July 2012
Arrivals at Aylsham High School's masqued-ball prom swept down the drive of a north Norfolk stately home in modes of transport ranging from an oil tanker to a uni-cycle.
The year 11 pupils held their end-of-year party Wolterton Hall, owned by Lord and Lady Walpole.
The evening included a hog roast, dancing to rocakbilly band Dawg House, a chocolate fountain and fireworks.
As usual prom-goers vied to arrive in the most head-turning style and a crowd of family and friends watched, cheered and clapped as a succession of cool, comic and enterprising "vehicles" made their grand approach to the red-carpet entry.
Lily Smith and Hugo "Huggy" Parry puttered up aboard "Buttercup", a unique one-horsepower, petrol-driven horseless carriage made from scrap in 1974 by steam-engine builder, the late David King, of Suffield. It was the vehicle's first-ever outing.
Bunnie Ennals tucked up her long dress, took off her high heels and unicycled to the entrance beside Stefan Bryant, while Emma Thompson and Atsuya Slater jumped down from the cab of a gleaming Goff petroleum oil tanker. Stretch limos, classic cars, camper vans, tractors,a boat and large motorcycles were also in the convoy, and two brave boys joined hands and skipped their way along the drive.
A party of seven - Emma Atkin, Peter Engelsen, Alice Gaudet, Lottie Howard, Annie Lamb, Liam McCarthy and Dec Sowter - took first prize for the most inventive arrival with their Chinese dragon costume.
Kirsty Nichols was chosen as prom queen, head boy Daniel Rivett as prom king, Joe Morrell prom prince and there were two prom princesses - Hannah Grix and Esme Follas-Shell.
Charlotte Wright won the prize for the best masque.

Have I permanently scarred my face? Will these red streaks peel as normal?
Permanently Scarred from TCA Peel?
Doctor Answers 1
You should be fine.
{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
Thank you for your question.
It is customary to have redness, peeling, crusting, and sometimes oozing after a TCA peel. Sometimes these can heal with a little darkness, but even that goes away over time. Your redness and streaking should do fine and resolve on their own over time without any residual effects. Unless you vigorously applied the peel in multiple layers, scarring should not be a worry.
Hope this helps.

And yet some of us continue to show indifference and disrespect to our elders in our own families and in the society.

Let us try to put a right perspective for these various problems and what we could do to keep our elders happy.

The ability to dream big and then the common sense to put into place the things necessary to achieve your dream are two traits that I think are necessary for success. It's also a great idea to keep a journal of your ideas. Reading the journal on those difficult and occasional down days may help to keep you focused and motivated.

It appears that China tries to keep the world off balance in projecting what the country will or will not need to feed its people today and the coming years. Rice supply and need is a prime example.
Within the last two weeks, two reports have indicated contradictions about the Chinese rice situation. The Qatar News Agency of the Middle East reported China is producing 98 percent of its rice consumption, per statements by the Chinese ministry of commerce.
But according to an LSU AgCenter report in The Advocate, Baton Rouge, La., newspaper, Louisiana rice farmers could see better prices this year because of demand from China and a smaller crop from Brazil.
The AgCenter quoted Milo Hamilton, a rice marketing consultant, who spoke at the National Conservation Systems Cotton and Rice Conference, as suggesting Brazil's rice crop could be suffering from weather issues and China could be importing more American rice because the country likes U.S. rice quality. The Chinese like American rice because it is cadmium-free, unlike the rice from some other exporting countries, Hamilton is reported as saying.
Meanwhile, the Chinese have released figures that show China doesn't expect to be bigger importers in any kind of a normal year. "Over the last year, China has imported 2.316 million tons of rice, which amounts to 1.7 percent of the Chinese production of rice and 6 percent of the world's total rice trade," according to the Qatar News Agency.
Unless U.S. rice is the preferred rice over all other rice, then the China ministry numbers don't seem to support huge optimism for U.S. rice farmers. But the U.S. Agriculture Department disputes Chinese numbers in reporting Chinese rice consumption in 2012 reached 144 million tons, which was 1 million tons above the domestic production level—both figures being the highest in the world.
Regional Asian reports support that American rice has replaced Thailand rice, which became higher priced under a government program to guarantee increased income for the Thai rice growers. Until two years ago, China according to reports, imported mainly the already expensive "fragrant rice" from Thailand that was preferred by many well-off Chinese. Additional cost for this rice broke the camel's back.
More numbers pulled from the Qatar report are of Chinese released production numbers. "According to the data, grain production in China has been increasing in nine consecutive years until 2012, with an overall yield of 589.55 billion kilograms last year. The country has been producing 525 billion kilograms or more in five consecutive years."
No matter the Chinese or even the Brazilian situation, it doesn't appear that rice will be a food crisis commodity in 2013, but prices could be impacted on what China does compared to what it says in government statements.

Hello Pros: we have just purchased a raised bunglow with above grade accessory apartment. Since the ceilings are already drywalled and painted we are not sure if type x drywall has been used or if there is a right insulation between to help sound proof. Is it possible to inject some kind of spray insulation and retaining the current drywall? what is a better approach accoring to you all 1) Rip off all the existing drywall, use sound proofing insulation and new drywall using Quiet Rock or 2) just attach tape and finish new Quiet rock drywall over existing drywall. What will be rough pricing difference for 900sqft space? Thanks
HI SACH IF YOU USE 1/2'quiet rock over existing drywall,it would give you 1 1/2 hour fire rating.but it will only muffle noise.cost would be $5,200 material and labour.
to completly soundproof you wood need to remove existing drywall.add safe and soundand install type x drywall.total cost would be $6,800 complete.i hope this helps
quiet rock works as a system including joists, hangers,sound baffles, quiet rock sheets, putty and acoustical sealers and they use the entire system when they do the noise rating as the same as 8 sheets of drywall. I had many meetings with the rep for Ontario about how they misrepresent their product as a stand alone noise solution.
Whom ever talked you into that should be reprimanded, what you are thinking about will be a sad waste of your money for the real noise reductions you will get.as the product is very expensive and is not designed to fill the gap's in your situation.
If during construction all of the system parts are used then and only then do you get any benefit from using this product . Sorry Mike Holmes
for rating on fire CSA ULC standard on all untested plaster and gypsum products is 20 min. a typeX 1/2" drywall is 30min but more expensive and less durable than 5/8" drywall and all 5/8" is fire rated to 30 min.
For noise transmitting it is unlikely you will have insulation in the basement ceiling unless it was a legal apartment recently most single family homes would pass on the $2 a square foot to add insulate unless they were required to.
Insulation can be blown in a number of holes cut into the ceiling and done the same way as outside walls but is not a very efficient method and if at some time you experience a leak from above then its disastrous.
So your options are
1. take down the existing drywall and add insulation replace the drywall with 5/8 drywall tape finish and paint on 900 sq about $5400 materials in.
2. leave the old drywall in place and add a 2nd layer and finish $3150
3 leave the old drywall add resilient Chanel for more noise absorption and 5/8 drywall in 1 or 2 layers $4000 - $5000
4 go with the quiet rock 30 sheets are $3300 retail the balance of the other materials is in the $2000 range and the installation using piecework rates would be $3600 for a total of $8900 and will offer no more reduction in sound transfer than the other 3 options.
I am a Licensed Acoustical Mechanic it's been my trade for 25 years
I'm looking at Ron's response to this question. How does 2 (the cheaper of these 3 options) compare with 1 and 3 for results?
Ie, appearance and time to complete. (likely hiring a contracator for all or most).
Thanks for your time.

The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as Amended by FDAMA of 1997
FDAMA added the following two provisions to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. These two provisions are commonly referred to as the "Least Burdensome Provisions."
Section 513(a)(3)(D)(ii)
"Any clinical data, including one or more well-controlled investigations, specified in writing by the Secretary for demonstrating a reasonable assurance of device effectiveness shall be specified as a result of a determination by the Secretary that such data are necessary to establish device effectiveness. The Secretary shall consider, in consultation with the applicant, the least burdensome appropriate means of evaluating device effectiveness that would have a reasonable likelihood of resulting in approval."
Section 513(i)(1)(D)
"Whenever the Secretary requests information to demonstrate that devices with differing technological characteristics are substantially equivalent, the Secretary shall only request information that is necessary to making substantial equivalence determinations. In making such requests, the Secretary shall consider the least burdensome means of demonstrating substantial equivalence and request information accordingly."

A baby leaf still curled up tight
That's pushing upward toward the light.
What will it be? A tree? A weed?
Each one is started from a seed.
To read a poem by Mary Ann Hoberman, such as this one, is to see that there is poetry in everyday things. Hoberman fell in love with poetry as a child and has spent her life writing fun, funny and observant verses for children about the simplest of subjects, such as a squirrel searching for nuts, annoying siblings, snow and birthdays.
Now 79 and the mother of four grown children, Hoberman is serving a two-year term as the Poetry Foundation's national poet laureate for children. That basically means she is the nation's ambassador for children's poetry, so she spends a lot of time encouraging young people to explore poetry without letting it become a chore.
"It isn't so much even thinking about poetry," she said. "Think about language, about words. What words do you like?"
April is National Poetry Month, so it's a good time to share a few of Hoberman's simple tips for getting the most out of poetry.
-- Go with what you like. If you like poems that rhyme, that's what you should focus on. You don't need to force yourself to read poetry that doesn't appeal to you. Hoberman likes poems that rhyme, and almost all her work is written this way. "I always come back to that very bouncy kind of work," she said.
-- Start small. Poems can be short and still be wonderful. But you might also find that you like just a piece of a poem, maybe even just a few words or a couple of lines. Sometimes if you think about just that part, and let it sink in, you'll find you actually like more of the poem than you thought. "It's like a door into a poem," Hoberman said.
-- Play with other people's language. There is a kind of poetry that Hoberman thinks is not appreciated enough: It's called found poetry. Typically, it's a short verse using, or largely based on, someone else's work: writing, a picture, a piece of art. "Read your newspaper today and see if there's something in that newspaper, maybe an image, or something that's not even poetic, that you like," she said. Of course you want to give credit to the original author!
-- Memorize poetry. This may seem old-fashioned, but Hoberman can go on and on about the benefits of children memorizing a poem or a bunch of poems. Often, she said, poems come alive if you know them by heart; they may pop into your head when you don't expect it and become more meaningful, or just more enjoyable. "I wish my head were far more full of things I memorized when I was a child," Hoberman said. "Those are things you never lose."

WATKINSVILLE — Oconee County jurors heard today from the boy whose parents handcuffed him, locked him in a closet and fed him bread and water.
"I lost my privileges," said the boy, now 13.
"I think I stole a honey bun out of the kitchen closet," he said.
Jimmy — not his real name — testified on the third day of a child cruelty trial in which his mother and stepfather face a total of 82 felony counts for the way they allegedly treated him. The punishment lasted for weeks, and only got worse, Jimmy said.
Damita Devonna Peak, a jailer in Walton County, pepper-sprayed him in the face, the boy said.
And his stepfather, Norris Lazarus Walker, shot him with plastic pellets, he said.
Prosecutor Jon Forwood asked Jimmy to tell jurors where he was shot.
"My arms, my back, my chest, my head and one time on my privates," he said.
Defense attorneys maintain that Walker and Peak couldn't make Jimmy behave, and they punished him so he wouldn't grow up to be a criminal like his older brother and biological father.
They wanted the boy to know how it would feel if he ended up in jail, the attorneys said.
Jimmy's younger brother, who told a counselor at Rocky Branch Elementary School about the alleged abuse in December 2008, also testified today.
The trial is expected to continue into next week.

"Okay, Buddy, put your mitt on."
"No, your left hand."
"No, the other left hand."
"That's your left hand."
"Because you throw with your right hand. "
"Not a mitten, a mitt. It's also called a glove."
"A bat is the thing you hit the baseball with."
"Yes, baseball like the Cincinnati Reds. We watch—yes, like the Chicago Cubs too. We watch—right, like the Chicago White Sox."
"Yes, yes, like those other guys. Just listen. I'm trying to teach you about baseball. I want you to learn to play baseball when you're older."
"Sure, you could be a baseball player when you grow up. Or a football player."
"Depends on which one you like better."
"I like them both. It wouldn't matter to me what you played, just so long as you were happy."
"Because your mother and I haven't been planning for our retirement, so we're counting on you to become a professional athlete to take care of us in our old age."
"Never mind, I'm just kidding."
"Sure if you want to play for the Reds, you can. They're Daddy's favorite team, so that would be great. Now, just listen, please."
"You catch the ball in your mitt – right, or your glove – and you squeeze it tight."
"So it won't fall out."
"Let me toss it to you."
"Hold your mitt like this."
"No, out like this, so it's up like a bowl."
"No, hold. . . no, just. . . more like. . . just let me move your hand."
"Good, now hold it there like that. Ready?"
"Nice try, but you have to move your mitt to where the ball is."
"I know I told you to hold it there, but – never mind. Let's do it again. Ready?"
"Good job, but don't forget to squeeze it when it hits your mitt. That way it won't fall out."
"All right! You got it. That's great. Now see if you can throw it back to me."
"Whoops. We need to work on your throwing too. Be sure to take a step with your left foot as you throw."
"No, the other leg. The other. . . no, the other. . . Just a minute. Hold up your mitt. Good, now touch the mitt to your leg. No, the other leg. Jeez, we need to work on your right and left too."
"Okay, good. Now, when you throw the ball, you take a step with your left leg – that's right, that one – and then you throw the ball."
"Good job! Now, this time try throwing it when you're looking right at me."
"That's right, it's dangerous when the ball goes into the street. That's why you should let me get it."
"I'm going to throw it to you again. Ready?"
"Why'd you move your mitt?"
"No, you're supposed to catch it with the mitt. You don't want to keep your mitt away from the ball. You need to get it in the mitt. Now throw it to me. Remember to look at me first."
"Good job, Buddy. Just remember to step before you throw next time, not after."
"Here, try it again."
"Don't move your mitt out of the way."
"Now throw it. Just remember: look, step, throw."
"Great job! That was right to me. Here it comes. Don't move your mitt."
"Sorry, that one's my fault. I threw it too gently. I'll do it better next time."
"Good throw! See, the look, step, throw works, doesn't it. Ready?"
"Ooh, sorry, Buddy. Let me see, are you bleeding? Good thing we're using a soft ball, not a regular baseball. Yeah, you're a tough guy. Let's keep going."
"Wow, way over my head. Nice try. You've got some pretty good velocity. Just don't forget to—it means speed. How fast you threw it."
"That's right. Just let me get it."
"I know I need to look both ways."
"Good catch, Buddy! You did it. That's awesome! You're turning into my little baseball player."
"No, you're not quite ready for the big leagues yet."
"Well, first you need to be older than five."
"Five-and-a-half doesn't quite get it."
"About 22."
"That's 17 years from now."
"Don't worry, you've got plenty of time to get there. Let's just keep working on your catching and throwing first."
"Good shot. That had some heat on it."
"It means speed."
"With a V. Velocity."
"No, you're not ready to bat yet. We'll do it another time."
"When there aren't so many cars and windows around."

North Korea's women's soccer coach made headlines yesterday when he came up with a fantastical excuse for his team's loss to the United States in opening round of the World Cup. Kim Kwang-min said his players had been struck by lightning three weeks ago, and were in too weak a state to win the game:
When we stayed in Pyongyang during training there was an unexpected accident so our team was not capable of playing. Our players were hit by lightning during a training match. More than five were hospitalised. The match was on 8 June.
This was the first anyone had heard of the June 8th incident.
Strange as the story sounds, it's not the first time a North Korean official has gone to bizarre lengths to excuse an athletic shortcoming. Here are five strange ways the repressive country has handled sports defeats in the past:

Yay! I have another super awesome foodie on My Favorite Finds today, sharing her Cardamom Pears for this week's Must Try Monday. I'm encouraging a "co host" with me each week….and if you want to join in, please email me and we'll get all set up. Today is CJ from Morsels of Life. She is a true "foodie", consistently sharing unique combinations of flavors on her blog, Morsels of Life.
I had some pears I needed to use, but I didn't want to just eat them, so I looked at what else I had. I thought about the Balsamic Pears, but I kinda wanted something more along the lines of a Quick Apple Crisp or Easy Peach Cobbler. And then I saw cardamom.
Native to India and Bhutan, cardamom comes in a small triangular seed pod with a papery shell and several small dark brown/black seeds inside. Cardamom's got a strong, sweet fragrance, and a little goes a long way. A good thing, since cardamom's apparently the third most expensive spice – only saffron and vanilla cost more! You should be able to find it reasonably priced at Indian or ethnic groceries. If none is available locally, there's still Amazon! Remember, a little goes a long way, so even a small package will last quite a while. You can also use cardamom in Indian dishes, Nordic breads, garam masala, or even to flavor your coffee or chai tea.
I just served these pears with some candied ginger, but you can easily add some toasted oats and make a quick pear crisp or serve it with some vanilla ice cream. Or both 🙂
Warm pears flavored with cardamom and vanilla, then garnished with candied ginger. Perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 5 minutes
Total time: 10 minutes
Yield: 2 servings
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 pears, cut into eighths
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cardamom
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- candied ginger, chopped
- Place butter and pears into pan, and melt butter.
- Stir in remaining materials, cooking until pears soft and syrup thickened.
- Garnish with candied ginger, and serve with vanilla ice cream if desired.
Welcome to Must Try Monday! The weekly link party where you can share your favorite recipes…those that everyone "must try". To link up, please to the following:
1. Include a Must Try Monday OR a text link back to My Favorite Finds and Morsels of Life

Cold Cave @ Bottom of the Hill
Ever since Ian Curtis shuffled off this mortal coil (4AD pun intended), gobs of acts have attempted to recreate his chilly post-punk aesthetic. The latest contenders, Cold Cave, go Curtis one further, aping the style of both Joy Division and that seminal band's successor, New Order.
On Cold Cave's debut LP, Love Comes Close, Philadelphia-based multi-instrumentalist Wesley Eisold throws together the former band's mopey groaning, thudding bass, and spiky guitar with the latter group's dancey electronic beats and thick, distorted keyboards. His lyrics similarly revel in love and catastrophe, as when he moans, "Look outside, world is exploding/ Stay inside, still never knowing/ Taking cover with each other/ Sleeping off a century of hope" on the title tune.
Although Eisold, who used to play in hardcore outfit Some Girls, started Cold Cave as a solo project, he's since added ex-Xiu Xiu member Caralee McElroy, and her vocals add a welcomed lightness to the proceedings. (Her presence also makes sense, considering how Eisold originally wanted the group's recordings to sound like '80s synth-pop act Yaz ... crossed with '90s guitar- and angst-heavy band My Dad Is Dead.) Matador Records just reissued Love Comes Close, perhaps because label honcho Gerard Cosley always wanted to have a Power, Corruption, and Lies (New Order's second release) of his own. One listen to Love Comes Close, and it's hard to blame him.
Former Ghosts and Veil Veil Vanish open for Cold Cave tonight at Bottom of the Hill (9 p.m., $10).

2007 Dodge Durango SUV - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Chauffeur by choice
By ON DA GO IN SO. CAL. on
Vehicle2007 Dodge Durango SLT 4dr SUV 4WD (4.7L 8cyl 5A)
ReviewWe just had our first child & needed something with more room than my mustang. Even though there were many choices out there (and we test drove them all) the durango slt had the power (v8), room (3rd row seating), cargo space (when the 3rd row is down), looks (husky - in a good way)& comfort we were looking for. Long trips I used to take with my wife (b-4 the baby came) in the convertible mustang seemed really long. Now that we have the durango, I hate to say it - I like taking long drives (375+ miles). Don't get me wrong, I'm keeping the mustang - but if it's a family trip I want the durango. From Las Vegas to San Francisco to lake havasu we found a great car. Family chauffeur by choice.
Best FeaturesSmooth ride, interior space, looks & extras. Alpine sound system w/six cd changer (I like). Easy access to the center seat on the 2nd row to place baby Carrier in. Plenty of room (w/folded down 3rd row) for carriage & grocery bags. Controls within reach.
Worst FeaturesSlow off the start (minivan slow). Miles per gallon on the durango are more like "blocks per gallon". On the city driving part - well lets just say that I get better mileage from my 5.0 mustang, with the top down. On the highway it gets somewhat better, nothing to write home about.

China Wireless aims for China's No 1 spot
Firm says low-cost smartphones will help it pass Samsung and Lenovo in the mainland market
China Wireless Technologies, the mainland's third-largest smartphone vendor, believes demand for low-cost phones will help it eventually overtake the market leaders, Samsung Electronics and Lenovo.
A 50 per cent surge in smartphone shipments will allow China Wireless to pass Lenovo for the No2 spot this year, though catching Samsung will take longer, chief financial officer Jiang Chao said yesterday.
"Lenovo's share is only 2 per cent higher than our company, so we will catch up to them very fast," Jiang said in Shenzhen. "This year we could catch up with Lenovo, but Samsung will be another few years in the future."
China Wireless surged to third place in the smartphone market in the three months to September, up from sixth in the preceding quarter, according to the researcher IDC. That was the first time the company entered the top five. For 2012, Samsung led the mainland smartphone market with a 17 per cent share, against 11 per cent for Lenovo, IDC data showed. China Wireless did not rank among the top five for the full year.
Mainland smartphone shipments will rise 44 per cent to 300 million units this year, driven by handsets costing about 700 yuan (HK$870), IDC forecast in December. Demand is surging as China Mobile, the world's largest carrier by subscribers, aggressively encourages users of second-generation networks to upgrade to third-generation services with low and middle-end smartphones. China Wireless, formed in 1993, has sold phones through China Mobile for a decade.
Yuji Fung, a Hong Kong-based analyst with Oriental Patron Financial, said: "Unlike Lenovo, which may rely more on open market channels, China Wireless's strong business relationship with domestic telecoms operators secures a high level of shipment growth. Strong smartphone growth is driven by the operator channel at the moment, via handset subsidies."
China Wireless will boost smartphone shipments to 30 million units this year, and 40 million units next year, from more than 20 million units last year, Jiang said. Samsung shipped 37.1 million smartphones in China last year and Lenovo 23.5 million, according to IDC.
Jeffrey Shafer, a spokesman for Lenovo, said: "We are highly confident that we will continue to build on our momentum in China smartphones and in fact our global smartphone, tablet and PC businesses."

Selig Happy With New Drug-Testing Policy, Tougher Penalties For Positive Tests
Published March 31, 2014
USATODAY.com, 3/28).
PLAYERS A DRIVING FORCE: In New Jersey, Bob Klapisch wrote the new drug policy "isn't some draconian, unilateral proclamation that Selig cooked up in the middle of the night, daring the union to take him to court." Rather, an MLB official said, "Most of (the changes) came from the players themselves." Klapisch noted there was "no contractual incentive for the union to strengthen the policy," as the CBA does not expire until after the '16 season. The "only reason to do so was to root out the game's rule breakers" (Bergen RECORD, 3/30). MLB Network's Matt Vasgersian said, "Players are tired of the general public's perception that everybody is on steroids. They don't want that out there anymore. So the players were just as big a part of this as management was." MLB Network's Tom Verducci: "In a short period of time, it has really flipped where the players now are being outspoken and their voices are being heard" ("MLB Tonight," MLB Network, 3/28). Tigers P Max Scherzer said, "The players want a clean game from all angles. I think what we did was we addressed a lot of different areas where we needed to improve in our JDA. Through the leadership of [MLBPA Exec Dir Tony Clark] and the rest of the Players Association, we accomplished that" ("Mike & Mike," ESPN Radio, 3/31). Indians 1B Nick Swisher: "We are making strides to let guys know that if you do take a chance of doing this, you will get caught." He added, "You break the law you've got to pay" (AKRON BEACON JOURNAL, 3/29). Angels P C.J. Wilson: "I hope this is the padlock, and closes this chapter. We don't want to keep going through this" (MLB.com, 3/28). Red Sox P Jon Lester: "Obviously, the 50 games wasn't enough to maybe make these guys think twice about it. Hopefully 80 games takes enough money out of these guys' pockets. ... Hopefully this will weed out 99 percent of the guys" (ESPN.com, 3/29).
LEGACY BUILDER: MLB Network's Ken Rosenthal wondered if the new testing policy reflects the legacy late MLBPA Exec Dir Michael Weiner left. Rosenthal: "It actually does, because his position ... was always that penalties and increased penalties, that was not enough. That was not enough of a deterrent. He was not even sure it was a deterrent." MLB Network's Bob Costas said former union leaders Marvin Miller, Don Fehr and Gene Orza all were "so completely wrong on this issue, and it is a demerit on their respective legacies." Costas: "It is a plus for the late Michael Weiner and now for the early tenure of Tony Clark." He noted players during the 90s and 00s either "wouldn't say anything at all, it was just this code of silence, or it was like, 'What's the problem?'" Costas: "They were taking all of their cues from Fehr and Orza. ... Eventually, there were little cracks in that and now the whole thing is busted wide open, and for the better" ("MLB Tonight," MLB Network, 3/28).

Indian prime minister's political stars shine no more
Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh is facing criticism not just from the political opposition — which is always ready to give him a mouthful — but also from around the world. The barrage of uncharitable monikers comes, mainly, from the foreign media — from Time's 'underachiever' cover story to The Independent's 'Sonia's poodle' tag. Foreign businesses and investors have also been critical of Singh's weak leadership and his inability to push reforms.
Singh's major problem stems from the fact that he has had no political legitimacy since he was appointed — not elected — as prime minister in 2004. The Congress party president Sonia Gandhi had 'sacrificed' her own ambitions and chosen the docile Singh as prime minister because he would be easy to control. Without a political base, Singh has been privately mocked by senior Congress party figures who do not agree with his policies.
Singh's first term in office was characterised by confrontation with the Leftist parties, which blocked many of his economic initiatives. His second term has been characterised by a series of high-profile scams and scandals that very nearly brought down his government.
Ironically, the same middle class that had applauded his 'bold stand' against the Leftist parties on the nuclear deal with the US in his first term, is now turning against him. This is reflected in the plethora of criticism and jokes about his leadership in the Indian media.
Singh, a technocrat and brilliant economist, also faces the 'new kid on the Congress block', Rahul Gandhi, whom mother Sonia wants to see ascending the prime minister's throne. Rahul has, so far, not made any impact on the Indian political scene. The advent of the scion of the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty also disgusts millions of educated and middle-class Indians who ask if a nation of 1.2 billion, with brilliant mathematicians, scientists, thinkers, strategists and others, cannot produce a strong nation-building leader, and must rely only on one family to provide leadership.
Indeed, the rich and politically powerful Indian diaspora in the US believes that the cancer of sycophancy is the root cause of the Congress party's decay. But the Congress blames its allies in the coalition government for blocking major reforms aimed at opening up the economy to much-needed foreign investment, and removing obstacles to growth such as anachronistic infrastructure, endemic corruption and red tape.
Insiders say that Singh, who turns 80 this year, did not get much support from former finance minister Pranab Mukherjee. Now India's 13th president, Mukherjee is believed to have left the finance ministry without resolving many issues of national importance. Singh and Mukherjee reportedly also had major differences on the economy: Singh wanted to see India integrated in the global economy while Mukherjee, a party troubleshooter, favoured populist policies that would play well domestically.
With India's economic growth falling to a near three-year low and its current account deficit the highest since 1980, the government has projected a budget deficit of 5.9 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP). The government's backtracking late last year from its plans to open up the $450 billion (Dh1.65 trillion) supermarket sector to foreign retail chains such as Wal-Mart, after a political backlash — including from within the coalition— alarmed the foreign business fraternity.
Singh, once the darling of foreign politicians and foreign investors, increasingly finds this constituency of admirers turning their backs on him. India's foreign policy profile has also suffered because of weak leadership. There is criticism, for example, of Singh's appeasement of Pakistan, which has inflamed tempers in India and abroad. While admitting that peace with Pakistan is important, Indian public opinion is against India bending backwards. Many believe India is making a strategic mistake. The right strategy would be to give only if India gets something in return.
Singh, who looks pale, exhausted and at his wits' end, knows he will not become prime minister again. But he deserves an honourable exit.
