Guardiola is already in excess of the last Rijkaard Barca

Barcelona

Pep Guardiola, who leads the league with 69 points and two points above amount throughout last season, when finished third with 67, and returns be a way to overcome even the record goalscorer in the history of the league, established in 107 goals from Real Madrid in the 1989-90 season.

Triumph of Almera Real Madrid before the three goals to zero seemed to spur Culs, which jumped to lawn with a desire to prove many things. His overwhelming victory in the Mlaga (6-0) allowed him to consolidate the front of the table and earn his twenty-second game of the season. Also, perhaps most importantly, reminded his persecutor that despite the small drop that was the loss of six of the 12 which had an advantage, keeps intact its eagerness to win.

Looking at the points on which the last Champions League title secured, it is clear that the Deportivo La Corua was first with 69 times that amount in Barcelona. You can not skip it if not for the phenomenal run of results of Real Madrid since the arrival of Juande Ramos, the competition would be totally sentenced.

Closer

Record goalscorer

The six

On that occasion, the passing of almost 20 years, whites scored 107 goals. The sum Barcelona and 84 in 28 matches contested, which means an average of three per game. To improve the historic record, suffice sign that many in the 23 remaining 10 days (average 2.3).

Offensive capability of Barcelona is about to make history, but whether it will or not, can already boast of having got so many goals as Real Madrid throughout last season and more than 18 targets in the ongoing 2006 -- 2007. On both occasions, the League went to the eternal rival. Will be in June when data must be weighed with titles, and if it becomes Cibeles to celebrate the title, the goals will not be used for anything.

Lukashenko and his officials extended the right to attend the EU

The Foreign Ministers of EU countries at a meeting in Brussels on Monday decided to retain sanctions against Belarus in the "Light Mode". In practice, this means that President Alexander Lukashenko and 36 senior Belarusian officials will be able to attend any of the 27 EU member states at least nine more months.

The document, adopted by the ministers stated that they had "reached a preliminary agreement to extend the regime of suspension of European sanctions against Belarus, passes BBC.

The term "preliminary" means that a decision must be approved by ministers at the EU summit, which will be held on 19-20 March.

By the end of a nine-month period, the EU will conduct a deep analysis of the restrictive measures in respect of a number of senior officials and politicians of Belarus to the situation in the republic, and if there is further positive developments will be ready to consider the abolition of restrictive measures, "adds the" Interfax ".

Earlier, the EU resumed direct contacts with Belarus. Its High Representative for Foreign and Security Policy Javier Solana, met in Minsk with Alexander Lukashenko, during the meeting the sides noted the warming in relations.

So the extension of a moratorium on sanctions against the official Minsk has not been a surprise. The idea was first launched at the informal meeting of foreign ministers of EU countries in the French Avignon on 6 September and implemented in October at the EU summit in Luxembourg.

This was preceded by the release from prison of a number of Belarusian opposition and the easing of restrictions on independent media.

According to some estimates, the Belarusian leader is seeking to take a unique position in the world, which was once the Yugoslav leader Josip Broz Tito: and the East and the West economically supported his regime, fearing that otherwise the whole of Yugoslavia will go into the opposite camp.

Sanctions in the form of travel bans and freezing of bank accounts to 42 citizens of Belarus, mainly belonging to her leadership, the EU were introduced in April 2006. The occasion gave the March presidential election in which Lukashenko for a third time to serve the highest office in the country.

In October 2004, Belarus held a referendum on the abolition of the constitutional restrictions. The EU considered the Belarusian presidential election of 2006, "the standards of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe" and accused Minsk of pressure on voters and the repression against the opposition. In the U.S., called Lukashenko the "last dictator in Europe".

However, the EU still does not cancel the authorization . Some experts attribute this to the desire to encourage Minsk to refrain from recognizing the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia.

Observers have noted that Alexander Lukashenko on Friday canceled a planned meeting with European Commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner, this went on a visit to Armenia.

Chairman of the United Civil Party of Belarus Anatoly Lebedko on Wednesday told reporters in Minsk, in the case of the lifting of sanctions without any conditions, "fight for democracy in Belarus will be even harder." The opposition politician called on the EU to insist on specific dates for the country's democratic reforms.

Lukashenko: Our interest in our relationship with the European Union is beyond doubt.

Bad Education

A few days ago in the Madrid several people enter on line 2 station in the Sun

Beside me came a woman of about 40 years with a baby in her arms.

Noting

With amazement that nobody had not the slightest intention of giving your site, I approached a girl about 15 years and directly I asked to please dispose of your site to the woman with the baby.

What was my surprise when the girl told me no? And has not even moved. But neither she nor Mr tie on his side, neither the girl further.

I felt so powerless that I did not know what to do. The I was ashamed! Where are we going to stop? I can not appeal to anyone because education does not exist. And I wonder: Should not be a penalty, fine or lawsuit against

The most absurd is that when I needed to come to my destination and most impressive was the one question that made me: Was the immigrant lady? And this has been!

I remain in a state of 'shock'. And no, it is true that not because it felt foreign. One of those who sat there was also a foreigner. Is that we have lost the minimum standards of respect and social education.

Today I am ashamed

Madrid.

Rosaleny warned that "a serious case of deep draft, which may be the foreshadowing of other things" and assured that CC.OO will "try every possible way to negotiate the ERE, try to reduce and to supplement the salaries of those affected. "It is shameful that while Ford Spain receives a direct subsidy of the Council, these workers were unemployed with 80 percent of wages," he said.

Meanwhile, representatives of the CGT trade union section will meet with the director general of Labor, Romn Ceballos, to transfer their "demand to correct the many errors that were detected on the payroll of the workers who were affected by the ERE of the last quarter of 2008. "
