The company I work for is slowly converting to work-at-home. Five more in
my office have been picked to begin work at home in the next few weeks. By
the end of the year, all of us will be doing this.
Just think.... one tank of gas to last at least a month, since 80% or more
of most people's driving consists of the daily commute to and from work. My
commute to work will be about 20 feet into my den. SWEET!!!
And the best part is, that I will be doing my part to really stick it to the
damn Arabs :-) EVERYONE should work at home. The technology is out
there, and the pay off will be HUGE!!!

Remember the Yom Hakippur War. Nassar was yelling over the radio at
Israel, taunting and threatening the Jews and then Egypt attacked and
the Egyptians were almost to Tel-Aviv, in fact Golda and Moshe Dyan
were seriously preparing to commit suicide rather face being over run
by the Arabs when something happened that changed the whole earths
respect for Israel, the God put the spirit on the Army to fight and
they fought pushing the Egyptians to the Suez Canal where they laid
down there weapons a stopped fighting as they unconditionally
surrendered to the Hagganah. The Tzvah Hagganah LeIsrael took the
whole Sinai as you probably know for all of Israel and a Jewish lady
that was once a public school teacher that lived right here in Denver.

I won't be accepting suggestions because I will have to work as hard as
the situation warrants. Having been assigned any number of
unachievable goals to be delivered tomorrow, I had to work far more
than the required amounts of hours, and then there is the staff that
relies on me while they are working long hours.
I don't have a clue why you think there is a relationship between sad
thoughts and this but as this is an essential part of my nature, I
don't desire to change it.
It is what defines me.

I don't like to write. I write all day. I get paid to write all day.
I don't want to be a free lance journalist it doesn't interest me at
all. I write on usenet when I am tired and lonely because my vision no
longer grants me the right to do social things that I used to do with
great frequency. I would rather hang out with people all day long.
But as I can't here is the internet to give me a virtual chance at it.
If I were doing that, hanging out with people all day long, I'd never
write. I'd never find a reason to write. It would never occur to me
to do so.
The visual impairment plus the long hours prevent a social life. Hence
I write.

It was interrupted. It was a film critic comparing his predictive

Not whigger, Jack... loser. You kicked her ass in this thread and she

because that someone doesn't like the way a certain race acts, as a

GW works for interests which are not of the common man, but
rather his base, and it could therefore be argued that we should find
somewhere to deport him to, could it not? The problem isn't with the
illegals from South and Central America, and Mexico; it's with Bush's

appoint a bunch of conservative Catholics to the supreme court, or

Subject: Durante 2005 Venezuela compro $500 millones en bienes a Cuba
Durante 2005 Venezuela compró $500 millones en bienes a Cuba
FABIOLA SANCHEZ
AP/EL UNIVERSAL
La Habana. Los estrechos vínculos que mantienen los gobiernos de
Venezuela y Cuba han permitido que la relación vaya mucho más allá de lo
político, y han abierto el camino para el desarrollo de un creciente
comercio binacional que se espera que este año alcance los 3.500
millones de dólares, superando en 40% la cifra de 2005.
La favorable balanza convirtió a Cuba el año pasado en el tercer socio
comercial de Venezuela, superado sólo por Estados Unidos y Colombia.
El grueso del intercambio se concentra en el área petrolera,
representado por los 90.000 barriles diarios de crudos venezolano que
recibe la Isla, que han aliviado en gran medida los problemas
energéticos y de suministro de combustible de Cuba, que a pesar de
poseer plantas petroleras no genera lo suficiente para abastecer su
mercado de 11,2 millones de habitantes.
El embajador venezolano en La Habana, Adán Chávez, dijo que en 2005 las
exportaciones petroleras de Venezuela hacia la Isla representaron unos
1.800 millones de dólares.
"Terminamos 2005 con un monto de cerca de los 2.500 millones de dólares
en ese intercambio comercial", precisó.
Indicó que la idea es "seguir aumentando el envío" hacia Cuba de
productos no petroleros. "2006 debemos terminar con la balanza de unos
3.500 millones de dólares".
Durante 2005 Venezuela le compró a Cuba diversos bienes que alcanzaron
"500 millones de dólares", señaló.
Chávez expresó que para potenciar el comercio binacional ambos gobiernos
acordaron este año la constitución de tres empresas mixtas para la
producción de discos, de cine, y la edición de libros y revistas, así
como una compañía de construcción.
Los gobiernos de Cuba y Venezuela tienen previsto desarrollar un
programa de viviendas populares estimado en 1.000 millones de dólares.
Insistió en que "más allá de lo económico...está el sentido de la
cooperación, de la solidaridad, de lo que es la auténtica integración".
El presidente del Banco Industrial de Venezuela, Luis Quiaro, dijo que
el bloqueo comercial que mantiene Estados Unidos contra Cuba desde la
década de los años 60, así como los acuerdos de cooperación suscritos
por los gobiernos cubano y venezolano, y la recuperación de la economía
de la Isla, han impulsado el intercambio entre los dos países.
Señaló que Venezuela está exportando hacia el mercado cubano una
diversidad de productos tales como uniformes, botas, materiales de
construcción, chocolate, salsa de tomate, sardinas, gelatina, mermeladas
y jugos enlatados.
En algunos mercados de La Habana es posible encontrar diferentes
alimentos de empresas privadas venezolanas tales como Adda's, Eveba, La
Giralda, que compiten con productos de factura española, holandesa,
italiana y colombiana.
Tania Carvajal, jefa del área de mercado del centro comercial capitalino
Galerías Paseo, expresó que desde que entraron al mercado cubano, hace
un año, los artículos venezolanos "se venden bastante".
Entre los bienes venezolanos se que comercian en la Isla figuran los
productos de limpieza, las salsas de soya, tomate y de ajo, las mezclas
para gelatina, las sardinas enlatadas y los jugos enlatados.
Los productos de Venezuela han tenido receptividad entre los cubanos
porque "aparte de que son buenos, salen más económicos que otros".
"Cuando salieron las sardinas venezolanas, enseguida se corrió la voz y
vinimos a comprarlas", dijo Arelis Tamayo, ama de casa de 36 años.

Damas de blanco invitan Llamazares viajar a Cuba conocer realidad
10 de Abril de 2006, 09:40am ET
La Habana, 10 abr (EFE).- Esposas de disidentes cubanos presos agrupadas
en las "Damas de blanco" invitaron al líder de IU de España, Gaspar
Llamazares, a viajar a Cuba para conocer la realidad del país después de
que la coalición vetó una propuesta en favor de la liberación de los presos.
El pasado 28 de marzo, Izquierda Unida vetó una enmienda pactada por
varios grupos políticos e impidió que el Congreso español aprobara una
Proposición no de Ley sobre Cuba que, entre otras cuestiones, reclamaba
la liberación de los presos políticos y de conciencia encarcelados por
el régimen cubano.
En una carta abierta dirigida a Llamazares y divulgada hoy en La Habana,
más de una docena de mujeres agrupadas en el movimiento "Damas de
Blanco" expresaron su contrariedad por la postura de IU e invitaron a su
líder a visitar la isla "sin programa oficial ni turístico".
"Comprendemos que personas honestas estén confundidas o no pueden
sustraerse de los sueños de tantos cubanos en 1959 y que, desde hace
años, se han convertido en una pesadilla", continúa la carta, en la que
sugieren a Llamazares que recorra las calles, visite sus hogares y "se
presente en cualquier prisión (...) de cualquier provincia, todo al azar".
"No deje de pasar por un mitin o acto de repudio (...) además, debemos
prevenirlo de que será estrechamente seguido y escuchado por la
Seguridad del Estado (Policía Política)", añaden las mujeres.
Las "Damas de Blanco" es un colectivo formado por mujeres familiares de
75 disidentes cubanos encarcelados en 2003, que recibió el premio
Sajarov de los Derechos Humanos 2005 otorgado por el Parlamento Europeo. EFE

Subject: Enjuiciaran a mexicanos por trafico humano
Posted on Tue, Apr. 11, 2006
Enjuiciarán a mexicanos por tráfico humano
ISABEL SANCHEZ / AFP
WASHINGTON
Tres pescadores mexicanos comparecerán mañana en un juicio en la ciudad
de Cienfuegos, centro de Cuba, bajo cargos por tráfico de inmigrantes,
en medio de un clima agitado por acusaciones contra México por supuesta
tolerancia con las redes de contrabando de personas.
Luis Nicolás Chan Campos y Juan Ramón Barco Rivero, ambos de 45 años y
Johnny Enrique Fuentes, de 22, enfrentarán a los tribunales casi un año
después de haber sido detenidos el 31 de mayo del 2005 en aguas cubanas.
Los tres mexicanos están recluidos en el centro de detención para
extranjeros La Condesa, en Güira de Melena, 40 km al suroeste de La
Habana, pero para el juicio serán trasladados a la ciudad de Cienfuegos,
a 260 km de la capital, por haber sido detenidos frente a las costas de
la provincia del mismo nombre.
El embajador de México en Cuba, José Piña Rojas, la cónsul Ana Hernández
y un funcionario de la sección de protección a los ciudadanos mexicanos
viajarán a Cienfuegos para el juicio, que podría tardar dos días.
Las leyes cubanas castigan duramente el tráfico de personas con penas
que van de diez a 20 años de prisión para quien penetre en territorio
cubano utilizando nave o aeronave para la salida ilegal de personas, y
de 20 a 30 años o cadena perpetua cuando se usa un arma, hay violencia o
intimidación, o muere alguien.
La pena más grave también se aplica cuando, entre las personas que se
transportan, se encuentra algún menor de 14 años. La fiscalía cubana
acusa a los tres mexicanos de intentar trasladar a México a 17 personas,
incluyendo cuatro niños.
Pero los pescadores sostienen que son inocentes, que se dedican a la
pesca y que el 26 de mayo del 2005 salieron a faenar del puerto de
Progreso, Yucatán, a bordo de la embarcación CPI-8, pero el motor se
descompuso cuatro días después, lo que los obligó -según su versión- a
ingresar a aguas cubanas.
El juicio tendrá lugar una semana después de que la policía cubana abrió
fuego contra una lancha con matrícula de La Florida, interceptada cuando
intentaba recoger a 43 emigrantes -entre ellos 14 mujeres y siete
menores- en las costas de la occidental provincia de Pinar del Río.
La operación dejó un muerto, así como dos detenidos, cubanos con
ciudadanía norteamericana que según Cuba pertenecen a una red que opera
desde Cancún y ganó $2 millones transportando a 204 personas en el año 2005.
A raíz del incidente, el Gobierno cubano denunció que existe una red de
traficantes de balseros, organizada por ''la mafia (anticastrista)'' de
La Florida , que usa a México y estaría apoyada por autoridades del
estado de Quintana Roo.
El canciller mexicano Luis Ernesto Derbez dijo que ''no existe evidencia
de que haya una organización'' de traficantes que utilice México; pero
la segunda visitadora general de la Comisión de Derechos Humanos de
Quintana Roo, Laura Susana Martínez, denunció que sí había autoridades
implicadas en ese delito.
Según un informe de la fiscalía general mexicana, publicado el domingo,
la llegada de balseros a las costas del estado de Quintana Roo, se
incrementó en los últimos meses.
Datos del Instituto Nacional de Migración (INM) de México señalan que
entre diciembre y febrero fueron detenidos en ese país 757 cubanos
indocumentados, frente a los 486 de los tres meses anteriores.
Cuba ha arrestado a 400 personas por tráfico ilegal de inmigrantes desde
mediados de 1999. El año pasado fueron detenidas 77 personas, cinco de
ellas mexicanas.
La Habana acusa a Washington de estimular las salidas ilegales con la
Ley de Ajuste Cubano (1966), que privilegia a los cubanos que toquen
territorio de Estados Unidos con residencia inmediata y facilidades
laborales. En el 2005 fueron interceptados en el mar a 2,834 cubanos, el

Damas de Blanco invitan al líder comunista Llamazares a viajar a la Isla
'sin programa oficial ni turístico'
'Comprendemos que personas honestas estén confundidas o no puedan
sustraerse de los sueños de tantos cubanos en 1959, que se han

Las Damas de Blanco, esposas, madres, hermanas e hijas de presos
políticos cubanos, han invitado al líder del partido español Izquierda
Unida (IU), Gaspar Llamazares, para que viaje a la Isla a conocer la
realidad de los cubanos, informó EFE.
El pasado 28 de marzo, el veto de Izquierda Unida e ICV (Iniciativa per
Catalunya Verds) a una enmienda pactada por los principales partidos
políticos de España impidió que el Congreso español aprobara una
Proposición no de Ley sobre Cuba que, entre otras cuestiones, reclamaba
la liberación de los presos políticos y de conciencia encarcelados por
el régimen cubano.
En una carta abierta dirigida a Llamazares y divulgada este lunes en La
Habana, más de una docena de Damas de Blanco expresan su contrariedad
por la actitud de IU y lo invitan a visitar la Isla "sin programa
oficial ni turístico".
"Comprendemos que personas honestas estén confundidas o no puedan
sustraerse de los sueños de tantos cubanos en 1959 y que, desde hace
años, se han convertido en una pesadilla", agrega la misiva y sugiere a
Llamazares que recorra las calles, visite sus hogares y "se presente en
cualquier prisión (.) de cualquier provincia, todo al azar".
"No deje de pasar por un mitin o acto de repudio (.) además, debemos
prevenirlo de que será estrechamente seguido y escuchado por la
Seguridad del Estado (Policía Política)", advierten las Damas de Blanco.
La iniciativa vetada por IU instaba también al gobierno español a
reforzar la labor humanitaria que desarrolla la embajada de Madrid en La
Habana, dando especial atención a los familiares de los presos de
conciencia.
Asimismo, el texto instaba al Ejecutivo a realizar las gestiones
necesarias ante las autoridades cubanas para que permitan la salida del
país de las Damas de Blanco a recoger el premio Sajarov que les otorgó
el Parlamento Europeo en 2005.

AFP/ La Habana. Fidel Castro asistió este lunes a la firma de un acuerdo
para la compra de cinco aviones comerciales rusos, lo que se considera
un segundo paso en la modernización de la flota nacional, informaron
medios oficialistas.
El contrato se suscribió en el Palacio de la Revolución entre el
vicepresidente del Instituto de la Aeronáutica Civil de Cuba (IACC),
José Prieto, y el director general de la Ilyushin Finance Co., Alexander
Rubtson.
Según el texto, la empresa rusa financiará a la parte cubana la
adquisición de dos naves Ilyushin (IL) 96-300 y tres Tupolev (TU)
204-100, una de estas últimas destinada al transporte de cargas.
Prieto apuntó que la compra significa un segundo paso en la
modernización de la flota aérea de la Isla, tras la compra hace unos
meses de dos IL 96-300, empleados en la transportación de brigadas
médicas cubanas a Pakistán, y de pacientes latinoamericanos enfermos de
la vista, para ser operados en Cuba, en el ámbito del proyecto
"Operación Milagro", que el gobierno cubano lleva adelante con Venezuela.
Uno de esos aviones IL 96-300 adquiridos anteriormente, posee una cabina
VIP, destinada a Castro, según fuentes rusas.
Prieto recordó que la aviación civil cubana siempre ha colaborado en la
transportación de ayuda de La Habana a otros países y mencionó los casos
de Venezuela, Guatemala y más recientemente Bolivia y Paquistán.
"Siempre hemos estado listos para cumplir las misiones de nuestro
partido y gobierno. Para unir los pueblos ya sea con médicos, maestros,
deportistas o turistas", subrayó el directivo.
Por su parte, el presidente del Comité para la Industria de Rusia, Boris
Alioshim, mostró su satisfacción por el acuerdo.
"Este paso es un gran aporte a nuestra amistad y abre nuevas
posibilidades de intercambio en éste y otros sectores", aseguró el
funcionario.
Alioshim aseguró la calidad de los aviones adquiridos y opinó que este
paso influirá en la apertura de una nueva era de negocios entre su país
y el gobierno de Castro.

Czech ambassador sends Easter greetings to Cuban dissidents
New York, April 9 (CTK) - The Czech ambassador to the US, Petr Kolar,
has sent Easter greetings to Cuban dissidents imprisoned in Cuba for
their political stands, he told CTK.
"We want to support our Cuban friends who could [otherwise] lose hope
and start believing that the world has forgotten them," Kolar said.
He said the greetings he had sent to 188 Cuban political prisoners means
an expression of direct support and a call on them not to give up hope.
"We know about them and we think about them. Easter has come nearer and
it is natural for us to send greetings to the people we like and we
think about," Kolar said.
He said the greetings do not contain any political declarations. "We´ve
only expressed support to them and our belief that their hope will hold
on," Kolar said.
He said that it was Cubans living in U.S. exile who had proposed the
idea to him. "I suppose they did not address only us," Kolar said,
adding that he has not tried to found out whether other countries´
diplomats have joined the initiative.
The Czech embassy in Washington has actively supported Cuban dissidents
for a long time, along with human rights observance and promotion of
democratic principles in Cuba.
In exchange, Cubans in the US have promised to back Prague´s effort to
have U.S. visa requirements lifted from Czech citizens.

Cuba Signs Deal to Buy 5 Russian Aircraft

minutes ago
MosNews
Cuba will buy five Russian aircraft for use in the island's growing
programs to provide social and health services to impoverished people
around the region, The Associated Press reported, citing official media.
The official Prensa Latina news agency on Monday carried several
photographs of President Fidel Castro meeting with Russian officials,
including Boris Alyoshin, head of the Federal Industry Agency, when the
agreement was announced in Havana.
The purchase agreement was signed by representatives of Cuba's Civil
Aeronautics Institution and the aircraft manufacturer Ilyushin Finance Co.
Prensa Latina did not say how much the two IL 96-300 and three TU
204-100 passenger jets would cost, reporting only that the Russian
aviation firm would provide Cuba with financing.
The IL 96-300 is a long-haul, wide body passenger airplane, which can
carry up to 289 passengers to a distance of up to 13,500 kilometers
(8,400 miles), according to an Ilyushin Finance Co. web site. The TU
204-100 is a mid-range aircraft for 210 passengers. One of the three
planes will be used for cargo, Prensa Latina said.
The news agency said the five aircraft will join two other IL 96-300
passenger jets recently purchased for "solidarity" missions such as
"Operacion Milagro" ("Operation Miracle"). This Cuban-Venezuelan program
provides free eye operations to needy people from around Latin America.

Cubans already exceeding 2005 arrivals
Monday, April 10, 2006
The number of Cuban migrants to reach Cayman territorial waters this
year has now surpassed the total figure for the full year of 2005. A
Cuban vessel with fifteen men and two women on board was spotted off the
coast of Cayman Brac Thursday, 6 April, bringing the total number of
migrants to reach Cayman waters since the start of January to around one
hundred and sixty-four, according to figures based on Government press
releases.
New guidelines on dealing with migrants that were introduced in January
2005 to discourage such arrivals appeared, initially, to have an effect.
Figures supplied by Chief Immigration Officer Franz Manderson indicated
that approximately four hundred Cubans arrived in 2004, dropping to 148
arrivals in 2005.
However, the number of Cuban rafters reaching these shores began to rise
at the end of last year, and at the start of 2006, there were
ninety-nine migrants in Cayman custody. With a steady flow of Cuban
vessels passing through or remaining in Cayman, the number of arrivals
this year looks set to top 2004 figures as well.
Almost 1,200 Cubans arrived in 1994, creating the "Cuban Crisis" that
was not resolved until early 1995. Between this time and prior to 2004,
only a few boats arrived each year. One hundred and thirty-eight Cubans,
including a number that arrived at the end of 2005, have been
repatriated to Cuba so far this year.
Under the current guidelines, migrants encountered in Cayman's
territorial waters or who come ashore any of the three Islands are
refused permission to land and are not given assistance to enable them
to continue their journey. Those able to depart immediately and wishing
to do so are allowed to leave.
Otherwise, they are detained and repatriated to Cuba, unless they are
determined to be refugees under the 1951 United Nations Convention on
Refugees. The seventeen Cubans that passed the Sister Islands Thursday
were the twelfth recorded group this year.
They were in 24-ft wooden boat, said to be in good condition, which was
last seen off Little Cayman, heading in a south-westerly direction.
Eleven Cubans who stopped at Cayman Brac Monday, 3 April, initially
tried to continue their journey, but later returned. According to an
official release, the Cubans said they could not continue their journey
because of concerns about engine problems.
Tourists visiting Cayman Brac said they saw a Cuban vessel while they
were out diving on Sunday 2 April. The boat was leaving the west end of
Cayman Brac, heading towards Little Cayman. Humberto Suarez, who is
visiting the Brac for a week, said what appeared to be the same vessel
came through the cut on the south side and docked at the Channel Wharf
on Monday, around 9:00 am.
The same boat was seen in the sound heading east at 1:25 pm and then
again an hour and a half later heading west. Witnesses said the Cubans
were "bailing like mad" even in calm waters inside the sound. Mr Suarez
noted that the seas were very rough around Cayman Brac on both Sunday
and Monday. "I wish I could help.
I can't see any lawful way to contribute to a charity or organization to
help those people. It breaks my heart to see them going out to sea in
those little boats. It's as if nobody cares if they live or die. They
are people," he said. Mr Suarez, a Cuban national who left Cuba in 1962,
said he has seen far worse vessels that the one he saw off Cayman Brac.
Some that reach Florida, where he lives, are just inner tubes, he said.
According to District Administration officials, the group was initially
held at the Cayman Brac Police Station, and transferred to Grand
Cayman's immigration reception area Tuesday afternoon. The seven men and
four women in the group will be processed in accordance with
international conventions.
Meanwhile there has been no official word on the twenty-eight Cuban
asylum seekers who disappeared Sunday 19 March. The missing Cubans
included a group of twenty-seven (eleven females, nine males and seven
children), who had arrived in Grand Cayman on 9 December, 2005. Also
missing is Juan Guerra, who arrived on 13 April, 2005 and was relocated
to the centre after ten months HMP Northward.
Cayman Net News reported on 6 January that the group of twenty-seven had
made written allegations that they were forced to leave their vessel
after it was rammed and damaged by the Cayman Protector, the Drug Task
Force/RCIPS marine patrol vessel. They further claimed that Cayman
officers pointed guns at the group, which included eight children, and
threatened to sink their boat to force them to disembark.
They alleged that ten out of the original thirty-seven Cubans continued
on their journey, despite the fact that the Cayman enforcement boat
damaged their homemade craft. According to RCIPS Public Relations
Officer Deborah Denis, the matter is still under investigation.

Havana (VNA) - Two-way trade between Cuba and Venezuela is expected to
reach 3.5 billion USD in 2006, an increase of 40 percent over the
previous year.
Venezuelan Ambassador to Cuba Adan Chavez told reporters on April 10
that last year Cuba was Venezuela's third largest trading partner,
following the US and Colombia. Two-way trade between the two countries
in 2005 was nearly 2.5 billion USD, of which Venezuela's crude oil
export to Cuba alone reaching up to 1.8 billion USD.
Ambassador Chavez said that his country will further promote trade
cooperation with Cuba, not only in the field of oil and gas, but in
foods, garments, footwear, and building materials as well.
He stressed that Venezuela has paid due attention to medical equipment
and devices made by Cuba and will continuously import a large amount of
these products from Cuba for implementing national health programmes.
Chavez added that the governments of the two countries have agreed to
establish three joint ventures: film, DVDs print and distribution; book
publishing, and a one-billion USD housing programme.-Enditem

Imported cement to ease construction crisis
published: Tuesday | April 11, 2006
Dionne Rose, Staff Reporter
MORE THAN 200,000 tonnes of cement will be imported into the island in
the coming weeks in an attempt to address the severe shortage of the
commodity on the local market.
Minister of Information and Development, Senator Colin Campbell made the
disclosure yesterday while addressing the weekly post-Cabinet press
briefing at Jamaica House.
"Cabinet did deal with the cement situation and I am happy to report
that ... the cement supply situation was steadily improving even though
there is still some level of shortage in the market," said Mr. Campbell.
The minister revealed that the importation was being done through the
Jamaica Bauxite Institute, which will this week finalise an agreement
with the Government of Cuba for 64,000 tonnes to be delivered in three
tranches.
The first shipment, he said, is expected within the next two to three weeks.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Finance and Planning has approved some
150,000 tonnes of commercial imports with the first shipment expected
within a matter of weeks. Other imports include 20,000 tonnes by local
manufacturer Caribbean Cement Company Limited (CCCL).
WORK HAS RESUMED
Mr. Campbell said that work had resumed on all government projects,
including the transportation centre in Half-Way Tree, St. Andrew, and
the two cricket stadiums at Sabina Park in Kingston and at Rock in Trelawny.
He said that the CCCL had also resumed its daily production of cement.
The minister said CCCL had received 220 claims from consumers for
compensation. The country has, over the past six weeks, suffered from a
severe shortage of cement following the recall of 500 tonnes of faulty
cement by the CCCL.
The recall led to a halt in construction projects, the temporary laying
off of an estimated 30,000 workers, and a fear of likely funeral delays.
Some buildings that were constructed during the period had to be demolished.
Carib Cement has admitted that the defective cement was on the market
for much longer than it had earlier stated and blamed, among other
things, the quality of the material for the sub-standard product. The
company hinted at changes in its quality control department.

Subject: Trade with Venezuela grows every day
Posted on Tue, Apr. 11, 2006
CUBA
Trade with Venezuela `grows every day'
The trade relationship between Cuba and Venezuela has skyrocketed
recently, with more growth expected.
BY FABIOLA SANCHEZ
Associated Press
HAVANA - Friendly ties between Fidel Castro's Cuba and Hugo Chávez's
Venezuela have opened the way to a burgeoning trade relationship
projected to reach more than $3.5 billion this year -- about 50 percent
richer than in 2005.
The favorable balance converted Cuba last year into Venezuela's third
most important trade partner, after the United States and Colombia.
The bulk of trade comes from the 90,000 barrels of crude petroleum that
oil-producing Venezuela sends daily to the communist-run island, but the
South American nation also has increased non-petroleum exports to Cuba
in recent months, with products from construction supplies to chocolate.
''The potential grows every day,'' Adan Chávez, Venezuela's ambassador
to Cuba and the president's older brother, told The Associated Press in
an interview here last week.
Chávez said the countries ended 2005 with $2.5 billion in trade. By
increasing Venezuela's nonpetroleum exports to the island, ''in 2006 we
should finish with a balance of some $3.5 billion,'' he said.
The ambassador said Venezuela's oil exports to Cuba last year were worth
about $1.8 billion.
Sold on preferential terms, Venezuelan oil has helped Cuba deal with
serious problems in supplying power to its 11.2 million people.
Cuba, meanwhile, sold Venezuela about $500 million of goods and services
in 2005, Chávez said.
Venezuela's purchases of Cuban products will continue growing in areas
such as medicines and medical equipment, supplying a program providing
free medical care in poor Venezuelan neighborhoods, he said.
Cuba has about 22,000 doctors and other health workers in Venezuela as
part of that program, but the costs to Cuba for sending the doctors --
along with other government-to-government cooperative programs -- are
not included in the trade estimates.
Other planned programs include building housing in Venezuela and Cuba,
Chávez said. Cuban officials have estimated that project will involve
more than $1 billion in investment.
Though much has been direct government trade, private companies also are
involved, and the ambassador said the countries agreed to launch several
mixed enterprises this year -- using government and private funds -- to
produce musical recordings, films, books and magazines. They also plan
to form a construction company, he said.
''Beyond the economic . . . there is the feeling of cooperation, of
solidarity, of authentic integration,'' Chávez said, referring to the
Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas -- the two countries' regional
trade initiative that is meant to follow socialist principles, in
contrast to the Washington-backed Free Trade Area of the Americas.
Lamigal, Venezuela's No. 1 manufacturer of galvanized steel sheeting for
construction, is selling Cuba material for roofing of homes and to build
sheds, said company export analyst Javier Leon.
Venezuela's Foreign Commerce Bank approved an initial line of credit of
$24 million to finance the exports that began last August, said Leon,
and the company expects the eventual value of exports could reach $96.8
million.
Cuba says Venezuelan products do well against products from Spain, the
Netherlands, Italy and Colombia.

Subject: India Wont Import Sugar China's Purchases to Slump
India Won't Import Sugar; China's Purchases to Slump (Update1)
April 11 (Bloomberg) -- India won't import sugar for the first year in
six and China's purchases may slump 21 percent, U.S. government reports
said. Increased production from the two countries, which account for a
fifth of global supply, may end a two-year rally that pushed prices to a
25-year high.
In India, the world's biggest sugar consumer, imports will fall to zero
in the year starting Oct. 1 as domestic production rises to a record,
the Foreign Agricultural Service in New Delhi said in a report
yesterday. A forecast 16 percent jump in Chinese output will cause its
sugar imports to slide to a four- year low, the service said in a
separate report.
``More sugar coming onto the market will lower prices,'' Tobin Gorey, a
commodity analyst with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia in Sydney,
said in an interview. Raw sugar may trade between 14 and 19 cents a
pound in the next 12 months, he said.
Sugar's rally to its highest in at least 25 years in February is
spurring increased production from farmers in India, China and Thailand,
broker C. Czarnikow Sugar Ltd. said last week. Additional supplies may
spur hedge funds and other speculators to reduce their bets that prices
will rise.
Speculative buying of the commodity and expectations that Brazil, the
world's biggest grower, will use more sugarcane to make ethanol as an
alternative to gasoline helped cause prices in New York to double in the
past year.
Record Oil
Higher prices for crude oil, which rose above $69 a barrel in London
today for the first time on concern over supplies from Iran, will limit
declines in the sugar price, Gorey said.
Raw sugar for delivery in May fell 0.6 percent to 17.01 cents a pound
when last traded yesterday on the New York Board of Trade. The futures
reached 19.3 cents a pound on Feb. 3, the highest closing price since
April 1981.
The Foreign Agricultural Service in New Delhi slashed its forecast for
India's raw sugar imports in the current year to 50,000 metric tons,
from an earlier prediction of 1 million tons on larger-than-expected
domestic production.
India, which began importing sugar in 2001-02 to plug a local production
shortfall, may produce 22.3 million tons of the sweetener in 2006-07,
almost 10 percent more than the 20.3 million tons estimated for the
current year.
``Due to higher domestic production and firm international sugar prices,
India is set to emerge as a net sugar exporter in 2005-06,'' Santosh
Singh said in the report. He forecasts exports to reach 1.5 million tons
in the coming year from 600,000 tons in 2005-06.
China
In China, the world's second-largest sugar consumer, imports may slide
to 1.1 million tons in the year starting on Oct. 1 from 1.4 million tons
in 2005-06, James Butterworth and Jiang Junyang said in a report yesterday.
The country's sugar output is expected to reach 11.1 million tons in
2006-07 from 9.6 million tons in the current year.
Growing demand for sugar in Russia, the world's largest importer of the
sweetener, may cause stockpiles there to dwindle to 400,000 tons by
Sept. 30, 2007, the lowest since at least 1988, according to the U.S.
Foreign Agricultural Service.
Russia
Growth in Russia's food-processing industry is expected to help drive a
1.6 percent increase in domestic sugar consumption, forecast to reach
6.81 million tons in the year starting Oct. 1, 2006, Mikhail Maksimenko
said yesterday in a report, which was prepared in the U.S. embassy in
Moscow.
He predicts production will be little changed at 2.55 million tons in
2006-07, while imports may increase 2.4 percent to 4.3 million tons.
Brazil and Cuba are the biggest suppliers of sugar to Russia.
Sugar output in the Philippines is expected to climb 8.9 percent to 2.2
million tons in the year starting Sept. 1, 2006, the Foreign
Agricultural Service in Manila said yesterday. A 2.6 percent increase in
domestic consumption of the commodity will reduce the country's exports
in 2006-07 to 156,000 tons from an estimated 224,000 tons in the current
year, the report said.

Cuban water engineers to learn from SA
Sapa
CUBAN water engineers are set to visit SA to learn how this country and
its partners build and manage big dam projects, the department of water
affairs announced today.
It said the fact-finding mission, to take place in the next few months,
followed a visit to Cuba last week by Water Affairs Minister Buyelwa
Sonjica.
The minister's trip "was undertaken under the auspices of the SA-Cuba
Joint Bi-National Commission".
While there, Sonjica held talks with her Cuban counterpart, Jose Luis
Aspiolea, on finalising an agreement forming the basis for a meeting of
the commission in September this year.
"Cuba has also said that as they have a need to build new concrete dams,
they are interested in some of the projects... (for example) the Lesotho
Highlands Water Project.
"Their interest is to see how such big projects work, and to further
understand the concepts behind such projects.
Cuba will send a fact-finding mission over to SA within the next few
months," the department said.

Cuba keen to expand ties with Iran
MADRID (IRNA) -- Cuba's Minister Without Portfolio Ricardo Cabrisas and
Minister of Transportation Carlos Manuel Pazo in separate meetings with
Iran's Ambassador to Cuba Ahmad Edrisian in Havana on Saturday called
for expansion of bilateral ties.
At the meetings, the two ministers urged that given the will of the
officials of both states for broader relations, implementation of
mutually signed agreements should be expedited.
As the Head of Iran-Cuba Economic Commission, Cabrisas reviewed joint
achievements in the domain of trade and economy and stressed that his
country is determined to bolster its economic exchanges with Iran.
He hoped that given the recent visit of Majlis Speaker, Gholam-Ali
Haddad-Adel to Havana and those of numerous Cuban delegations to Iran in
the current Christian year, the next joint commission meeting will be
more fruitful.
For his part, Pazo, who is just back from his recent visit to Tehran,
expressed satisfaction with the result of his trip and the growing trend
of mutual ties.
Meanwhile, he praised Iran's progress in the field of transport.
The minister hoped that once the agreements reached during the visit are
implemented, a crucial step will be taken towards further collaboration
between Tehran and Havana.

Florida companies push to expand trade with Cuba
By Agustina Guerrero
Tampa Bay Business Journal
Updated: 8:00 p.m. ET April 9, 2006
TAMPA -- With Fidel Castro still entrenched as the president of Cuba,
Florida companies salivating for a chance to do business there have had
a long wait to implement plans for a "what if" scenario, should the
regime fall.
But while the issue of planning for free trade with Cuba has been South
Florida-focused, there is movement on a statewide level to increase
business despite long-standing embargoes on trade.
The U.S.-Cuba Trade Association, a nonprofit organization based in
Washington, D.C., will host a statewide seminar April 13 for Florida
companies interested in starting or increasing trade with Cuba. The
Orlando seminar is the first step in creating a Florida chapter of the
organization and is drawing real interest from Tampa Bay companies.
A starting point
Trade at this point is small, said Arthur R. Savage, president and CEO
of A.R. Savage & Son Inc. in Tampa and one of the founding members of
the USCTA's Florida chapter. It has resulted only in a few animal feed
supplement shipments, phosphate-based products and refrigerated cargo
going to Cuba from Tampa Bay.
"The U.S.-Cuba Trade Association is there to help people navigate that
minefield so they can be successful," said Savage. "The only thing that
is hampering business right now is the U.S. government. That's not the
way it's supposed to be. We have products to sell, and they have needs
and vice versa. The only thing standing in the way, are our governments."
A.R. Savage & Son's experience in Cuba has been good so far. "We have
found them to be wonderful people to work with," Savage said.
Sharing the vision
Other companies that have local operations and that have done business
in Cuba include Florida Produce of Hillsborough County Inc. and The
Mosaic Co. (NYSE: MOS).
Initial organizing members of the USCTA's Florida chapter include A.R.
Savage & Son Inc., Buffalo International, Caterpillar Americas, Duane
Morris LLP, North American Partners, Tucker/Hall and United Americas
Shipping Services.
"Florida stands to gain the most from open trade and business with
Cuba," said Kirby Jones, president of the USCTA. "More companies have
visited Cuba from Florida than from any other state in the country."
Tampa Bay in particular can gain a lot, said Albert A. Fox Jr.,
president of the Alliance for Responsible Cuba Policy Foundation and a
democratic candidate running for Congress to represent the 11th
congressional district.
"The Port of Tampa is closer to Havana than the Port of Miami. Why not
take advantage of that?" Fox said. "Once it opens up, Tampa can be
tremendously influential."
Mapping potential
A study conducted by Tim Lynch, director of the Center for Economic
Forecasting and Analysis at Florida State University, concluded that
lifting the embargo would result in a $5 billion to $13 billion annual
dynamic increase in U.S. GDP over 20 years, and $1.1 billion to $2.1
billion growth in Florida GDP over 35 years.
The Florida economy also would add 14,000 to 27,372 jobs over 35 years.
The embargo was implemented primarily through the Cuban Assets Control
Regulations, issued in 1963, and is currently administered by the U.S.
Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control.
"The real opportunity is in the future, when trade resumes
unrestricted," Savage said.
The local ports are expected to benefit from that increase trade.
"Because of its proximity and growing inventory of modern inter-modal
facilities, Port Manatee is well positioned to benefit from existing and
future trade opportunities with Cuba," said Steve Hollister,
communications manager for Port Manatee.
Port Manatee was the site for two shipments of animal feed supplement in
the fall 2003.
A beachhead of opposition
Not everyone is happy with the USCTA's push for more trade.
"Instead of talking about how to benefit from the pain of the Cuban
people, they should be talking about how to support a transition to
democracy," said Camila Ruiz-Gallardo, director of government relations
for the Miami-based Cuban American National Foundation. "We can talk
about trade when Cuba becomes a democratic and open country. Today it is
a centralized economy where the Cuban does not take advantage. He is a
slave employee of the government. Under those circumstances we don't
agree with continuing or increasing business with Cuba."
But the trade group is indeed looking to the future and helping the
Cuban people when trade opens up, Savage said.
In October 2000, Congress passed the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export
Enhancement Act, making it legal for U.S. companies to sell some
products to Cuba.
Since then, U.S. companies have conducted almost $2 billion worth of
trade with Cuba.
When asked how many licenses have been issued to Tampa Bay companies so
far, the Treasury Department said numbers were not readily available.
"The way our database is set up doesn't allow us to sort by location,
per se," said public affairs specialist Molly Millerwise.
"Unfortunately, it would require our folks going through tens of
thousands of licenses to sort out any possible Tampa Bay-specific ones,"
she said.

Cuba Allowing 2 Bishops to Broadcast
Radio Messages, in Time for Holy Week
KOENIGSTEIN, Germany, APRIL 10, 2006 (Zenit.org).- Cuban authorities
allowed two bishops to broadcast Holy Week messages on the radio. For
one of the dioceses, it was a "first" under Fidel Castro.
The developments were confirmed by Bishop Emilio Aranguren of Holguin,
in a message addressed to the international charity Aid to the Church in
Need.
According to the prelate, the Office of Religious Affairs, affiliated
with the Central Committee of the Cuban Communist Party, permitted him
and Bishop Dionisio García Ibáñez of Bayamo-Manzanillo, to broadcast
radio messages for the start of Holy Week in their respective dioceses.
In Holguin, it was the first time in 46 years that this took place. When
Bishop Aranguren, 55, informed his faithful at the end of Mass last
Saturday, the congregation gave a standing ovation.
Bishop Aranguren explained that when he visits "the sick in their homes,
I realize the large majority of them select foreign radio stations in
order to hear religious messages. . They need it for their faith."
"For this reason," he continued, "I have asked the authorities to let me
address the sick in order to encourage them to celebrate the great
events in the life of Jesus Christ: his passion, death and resurrection.
God willing, may I do that every week."
In his 12-minute radio address, broadcast on Palm Sunday, the bishop
also addressed the elderly, telling them: "I want to bring you a message
of consolation, strength and hope. I know that you need this, just like
all of us.
"When you hold a crucifix in your hands or look at Jesus Christ on the
cross, I invite you to renew your trust in him. You will find a new
disposition, a spiritual aptitude to continue to carry your cross with
confidence, courage, dignity and hope."

Oh, so you want to play the "Oppressed by Whitey" game.
Okay.
Care to tally up the number of those killed - either black or white let
alone combined - in the course of black-perpetrated crime in the U.S.
in just the last 20 years -vs- black lynching victims? We won't even
deduct those blacks lynched who were actually guilty of some crime of
violence, we'll just assume they were all innocent victims of mob
mentality.
Let's go back even farther to the motherland where the blacks were
obtained from. I assume you know it was other blacks who delivered
their neighbors into the hands of European slave traders. How many
blacks were enslaved and killed by other blacks in the eons before they
ever saw a white man? How many African blacks have been enslaved and
murdered by other African blacks in the time since the beginning of
North American slavery?
Who do you think is better off overall - the American black descendents
of slaves or their kinfolk back in Africa? If you're black and you
haven't hopped on a boat back to Africa, I guess that gives us your
answer.
Fact is, yours is the typically myopic, facts be damned, I'll never
admit OJ did it, Rodney King was an innocent victim point of view that
was displayed by the blacks at that forum. They don't care what really
happened, they're laying reactive blame on the "rich white boys".

I have to agree with that opinion. Though it does seem that these black
residents are jumping to conclusions, because this was a black woman,
supposedly raped by white men.
Would they have the same outrage if the races were reversed? I don't
think so, though white people would probably have the same lynch-mob
mentality.
Not EVERYTHING that to be because of racism. When a black man rapes a
black woman, is it because of racism? When a white man rapes a white
woman, is it because of racism?
We need to do away with the notion of 'everything is connected to
racism'.
It could just be, that this woman was raped because she was the closest
woman at hand, when these men got horny. That is what the usual
reasoning behind rapes is, the closest person who you are sexually
attracted to and can get alone if you are a sexual offender, gets raped.

All the more reason to give them back thier land. Yet at the same time,
it's a matter of original ownership, and not what they do to keep it,
or get it
back.

Say what? American Indian Jews? What have you been smoking..

And this is how we see that so-called Palestinians' propaganda has taken
root in the general subconscious. Unfortunately for your observations, there
was NEVER a country called "Palestine" inhabited by "Palestinians."
What was there ever since 1918 was the colonially adminstrated leftovers
of the Ottoman Empire that he British all but arbitrarily decided to call
"Palestine". No government was put out - no one would even have bee forced
out if the neighboring Arabs hadn't started attacking Israel the minute she
was established, leaving the local Arabs with the choice of allowing them to
slaughter the Jews (which they openly called for) or be seen to collaborate
by just not joining in. Up until 1967, you would NEVER even HEAR an Arab
pour anything but scorn and rancour on the very *idea* of "Palestine" - they
considered it a demeaning enforced designation and wanted no parts of it. It
wasn't until they decided terrorism was the way to go to get rid of the Jews
that they decided they were oppressed victims.

La Habana, 9 de abril de 2006
Sr. Gaspar Llamazares
Coordinador General
Izquierda Unida
Con el mayor respeto nos dirigimos a Usted. En nuestras manos gladiolos
rosados y en nuestros corazones amor y convicción de que nada es imposible.
Profundo dolor nos produjo conocer que el Parlamento de España no aprobó
una Resolución No de Ley en relación con la situación existente en Cuba.
Según las limitadas informaciones de la prensa española a la que
tenemos acceso con mucha dificultad, Usted bloqueó la posibilidad de
adoptar el proyecto que gozaba del consenso de la mayoría de los partidos.
Somos especialmente sensibles a las decisiones provenientes de España.
Más que recordar sucesos desagradables de nuestro pasado colonial, los
cubanos hemos estado colmados de demostraciones de comprensión y amor
hacia los españoles. Nuestros abuelos y padres nacieron en su tierra;
fluye en nosotros la misma sangre. No hubo revancha ni odios al
retirarse España de Cuba, sino que los peninsulares e isleños fueron
acogidos y considerados. Muchos ocupan sitiales prominentes en nuestra
historia.
No deseamos recordar a Valeriano Weiler, sino a hombres ejemplares, cuya
más señera expresión actual es el Rey Don Juan Carlos. Igualmente,
quisiéramos que otros españoles sean considerados con aprecio cuando se
escriba la historia que hacemos hoy. Nosotras, al igual que nuestros
prisioneros de conciencia de la Primavera Negra del 2003, no guardamos
odio ni rencor. Aspiramos a la justicia y la reconciliación entre todos
los cubanos, los que permanecemos en nuestro Archipiélago y los de la
diáspora, así como a la amistad y la colaboración respetuosa entre el
nuestro y otros pueblos.
Comprendemos que personas honestas estén confundidas, o no puedan
sustraerse de los sueños de tantos cubanos en 1959 y que, desde hace
años, se han convertido en una pesadilla.
Muchos serían los argumentos que pudiéramos brindarle, pero preferimos
invitarlo a que visite Cuba, sin programa oficial ni turístico; que ande
las calles, vaya a nuestros hogares sin previo aviso y, sobre todo, que
se presente en cualquier prisión (no el Combinado del Este de La Habana,
preparado para visitas de protocolo), de cualquier provincia, todo al
azar.
Por las carreteras podrá apreciar los campos cubiertos de marabú, las
ruinosas fábricas, los centrales azucareros desactivados y baches tan
grandes, que quizás dude si está circulando por una calle o una
guardarraya. Si no es mucho pedir, por favor, en La Habana súbase a un
Camello o a un Almendrón (transporte normal de los cubanos), y si va a
provincias, disfrute de un maltrecho coche a caballo (único medio en la
mayor parte del país). Entre a una Shopping (tiendas en divisas),
compare precios con salarios y pensiones; escudriñe las bodegas de
magros productos racionados; y lléguese a un Consultorio Médico, un
hospital o una farmacia para cubanos, para constatar donde están los
médicos y los medicamentos. Finalmente, no deje de pasar por un Mítin o
Acto de Repudio. Muchos más lugares podríamos sugerirle, pero no
deseamos abrumarlo. Además, debemos prevenirlo de que será
estrechamente seguido y escuchado por la Seguridad del Estado (Policía
Política).
Como el debate en el Parlamento de España ha sido público y allá se
profundiza la democracia, le enviamos esta carta abierta. En realidad,
en Cuba no tenemos el elemental derecho de poder expresarnos libremente
sin el riesgo de ser llevadas a prisión acusadas de ¨Desacato¨, como
mínimo.
Reciba nuestra consideración y respeto.

'Morals' is not crap, but some people don't have to obey the rules or

function of power.
The country least likely to go down is the US, so we've backed a good horse.
