3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite in a league of its own.
I'm not a big football fan and borrowed this book because I'm interested in sports psychology and leadership.
I thought this provided limited insight into the man and what made him the great manager that he undoubtedly was. [ it wasn't a case of sweet F.A with regards to this, but just not as much as I hoped]
No doubt Sir Alex is a man with as many...

5.0 out of 5 stars Fergie - bloody hell!,
I would have read this book in my own time, but the hyperbole and screaming headlines in the press, and reactions from those allegedly disrespected, prompted me to buy and read it quickly. After all, the single star reviews on Amazon were prolific and, if accurate, showed two surprising facts: 1) Sir Alex had betrayed the club; 2) there had been a sudden increase in the literary critique ability of the fans of other clubs. So I read it in three days - I had to as I could not put it down.
Sir Alex always maintained this was a book for the fans; fans who had remained steadfast with United and were owed an explanation of the gaps remaining in the journey of the last 26 years. And I found this was so. It is written in such a way as to be conversational, not great literary prose, but solid, honest words which every United fan would understand. He deals with his own errors of judgement and his drive to maintain a high standard, recognising early on that no man was greater than the club.
This is a book of Sir Alex's personal view of his time in charge and he lays everything out for a reader to digest. His dealings with Keane, Beckham, van Nistlerooy and his comments about Gerrard, Chelsea, Liverpool and all the rest from the headlines were not as reported. Even Wayne Rooney would find more praise than he may deserve - though he remains on the brink of becoming one of The Manchester United Greats, should he chose to [I hope he does]. I found the comments full, sound and robust, but not unfair. This is not a book about training methods and the technicalities of the game, though there are enough references as to tactics of particular games, or years, but a filling in of the gaps left unanswered from the last couple of decades.
If you are a Manchester United fan read it as a personal gift of information to you. If you are not, but love football, this will give you an insight to how the Premiership works, and how managers and players react to the demands. If you are not a fan, at least read the book with an open mind before dishing out a single star.
There is no ending to this book; just an open road to a new era by a man Fergie trusted to succeed him, and beyond.The updated version is equally pragmatic and answers the outstanding questions remaining over the demise of David Moyes and the next big step of the van Gaal era with the new group of stars. Sir Alex has earned his place as the greatest manager through hard work and a resilience seldom seen. I have to give this book five stars as it gave me a great deal of pleasure. And, yes, I am a United fan (since 1967).

5.0 out of 5 stars Fergie Time...On Your Own Time (And Chair),
The 90's Guy (North Devon, England) - See all my reviews
(WARNING: The review of this book may or more likely will contain spoilers!)
Do you know what's ironic, or at least has the potential to be ironic? In the opening chapter of Sir Alex Ferguson's autobiography, he mentions that after an entertaining 5-5 draw with West Brom in his final league game in charge of Manchester United at the conclusion of the 2012/13 season, Ryan Giggs jokingly said in the dressing room that "David Moyes has just resigned." Well based on United's performances so far this season, that piece of supposed light humour may very well become a reality in the near future.
But while that debate rages in the football forums, I have a review to take care of...this book. It's been highly talked about since its release with some ex-United players not taking too kindly to Fergie's opinions and choice of words. As a Manchester United supporter (there, I said it!) I found it to be a highly enjoyable read; but even if I wasn't a supporter I still would've found it more than engaging enough to see it through to the end. I don't think it's quite the blow-your-eyebrows-off-of-your-face book that the media have made it out to be, but it certainly grabs your attention and gets you thinking.
While there is a bit of talk about Alex Ferguson's early life and managerial days at St.Mirren and Aberdeen, this book mainly focuses on the period between 2001/02 (the season he was supposed to retire but then changed his mind) and 2012/13 (when he did actually retire). He talks a lot about his thinking behind his transfer purchases, the United youth system, his methods of dealing of problematic players, and the in-game tactics used to ensure the Red Devils remained a competitive force both in the English Premiership and in the UEFA Champions League.
In the early chapters Ferguson talks about his no-nonsense temperate; the importance of keeping his teams focused and in line, reminding them that he was in charge and that they would be facing severe consequences if they stepped out of line. One example of this is when -during his early years of management- he fired a player for making a rude gesture in a team photo. He comes across as being a very, VERY passionate man when it comes to football (as if all that TV coverage wasn't obvious enough). In fact, in those same early chapters, he talks about having a steely determination, never giving up and always looking for a way to comeback and improve on previous results. The words are actually quite uplifting. If you're a person who's currently down on their luck and can't seem to catch a break, those are the kind of words you need to hear...the kind of words you want to hear. In spite of Ferguson's notable fiery temper though, the foul language is kept relatively light in this autobiography, unlike Harry Redknapp's offering which was pretty much profanity-laden from start to finish.
The so-called juicy bits can be found halfway through, and Ferguson doesn't mince his words for even a short line. He rates Australian goalkeeper Mark Bosnich poorly, portraying him as a greedy pig that couldn't stop eating; while Owen Hargreaves apparently disappointed him by having no confidence in his ability to overcome injuries. Even the better Manchester United players get a text book slapping. While Fergie acknowledges David Beckham to be a hard worker and a fine footballer of his generation, he does express a strong disliking towards his celebrity lifestyle, and that from his POV his focus was more on being famous than improving the United team. Having seemingly patched up their differences a few years back, you can't help but wonder if Fergie is trying to reopen old wounds with comments like that towards Beckham; and if so, why? Why bother kissing and making up when you're just planning to shoot him down again?
However the ex-United player who bears most of the criticizing brunt is the 90's midfield engine, Roy Keane. According to Alex, Roy's attitude was especially problematic during his final few months at Old Trafford with a series of petty arguments, and a general feeling that Roy was trying to take over the manager's hot seat in an underhanded manner. The chapter on Roy Keane plays out more like a well-written thriller, and every page turn builds up the excitement more and more and more until his eventual departure. Definitely a chatterbox worthy bunch of pages.
The truly unexpected stuff for me comes in Ferguson's interests outside of football. Sure he's dabbled in owning race horses for quite a while, but aside from that I couldn't help but feel that football was all he knew, that there was very little beyond the goalposts of the beautiful game. So to read that he has a strong fascination for former US President John F.Kennedy, and more precisely his assassination (with many books on the subject in his home), made me let out a sizeable "Huh?!" Mind you a few surprises are usually welcome in a book, and I suppose many of us do have an unexpected hobby or two, so it's all good.
One thing that'll surely get the football lovers talking is Ferguson's choice of words before and after matches, and in the media. Many a paper have stated that Fergie was playing mind games with his opponents (managers in particular) in order to unsettle the opposition and give his team the advantage. However Fergie insists that this has never been the case, saying that he was merely expressing his honest opinions about his opponents and that the papers (and other media) simply made it out to be mind games. Is he telling the truth? Well, I'm trying to look at it like this. This is his autobiography, his page-by-page opportunity to tell it like it is. Why would he lie about that in his own book, especially knowing that he is now in the late autumn of his life?
Overall Alex Ferguson's autobiography gets full marks from me. Its mixture of strong views and exciting action, mixed in with small amounts of surprises and even a motivational speech, all add up to make it one of the best books I've read so far. At times I even found myself reading about four chapters in one sitting, it is that good. Whether you're a diehard Manchester United fan, or an individual looking to bash them at every single opportunity, this is a book you simply HAVE to read.
Update - 26/4/2014: Well, looks like David Moyes is gone. More of a sacking than a resignation, but he is gone.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite in a league of its own.,
I'm not a big football fan and borrowed this book because I'm interested in sports psychology and leadership.
I thought this provided limited insight into the man and what made him the great manager that he undoubtedly was. [ it wasn't a case of sweet F.A with regards to this, but just not as much as I hoped]
No doubt Sir Alex is a man with as many talents as A Wenger Swiss Army knife has blades, but I think that writing is not one of the skills in his arsenal. To my mind he often comes across as grudging in his admiration towards others which is a great shame as acknowledging others generally should not diminish your own worth - and he no longer needs to compete.
That's what I thought, but then other readers will be approaching this book from a very different angle.
So, if you are reading this because you are Man Utd fan then irrespective of all of the above this will no doubt find a place on your bookshelf, and you probably will love it.
I however have loaned it out and may consider letting it go on a free transfer.

4.0 out of 5 stars ''FERGIE'',
A great read and most informative. He takes us through the hard times and the good of his career. It is full of fascinating facts and figures about the many world class footballers he brought to the club. He makes no attempt to blow his own horn although he of all people could be forgiven. A fascinating book for football fans in general but an essential read for MANU supporters.

4.0 out of 5 stars Insightful, honest,,
An interesting read, surprisingly humble and an honest appraisal of a man dedicated to control and success. Would have liked to have more insight into his reasons behind retirement and the moment he decided to do it with a mention on his feelings towards the modern game.
5.0 out of 5 stars As inspirational as it is fascinating!,
Stephen Nand-Lal (Manchester) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Alex Ferguson My Autobiography (Paperback)
I've been a united fan since birth (23 years ago) and this book runs through all the big nights which were the spine of my youth. The insights offered from Sir Alex are inspired, and to understand how a football club works from the inside is fascinating. The book is full of personal opinions which make Sir Alex feel all the more human; it would have been easy to write a book and say how amazing everyone is but to hear tales of Giggs, Beckham and Scholesey as youngsters is a reminder that they were just Ryan from down the road one day, and that by believing in yourself you can accomplish anything!

An engaging and interesting autobiography from one of the greatest football managers of all time. A very distinctive and legendary character in sport.
3.0 out of 5 stars I would consider it a good book, despite being an Arsenal fan,
Completely frank Spencer (Bromsgrove, UK) - See all my reviews
I would consider it a good book, despite being an Arsenal fan! Quite revealing and insightful, but not as much as the first book, and indeed not as good overall. I've seen it priced at �25 for the Hardcover, for which I most certainly would not have considered good value. It was much cheaper on the Kindle though of course, and I was happy with my purchase in the end. I would certainly recommend the book, even to non-United fans, but not at �25!

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but that's it,
An interesting account of his time at the top but I can't help but feel that it's just been thrown together in order to make him an extra few pounds and cash in on his retirement.

The Continuing Spread of Carbon Pricing
Carbon pricing continues to spread around the world, with major schemes in Chinese provinces now in place.
For my first post this year it seems timely to review progress on implementing carbon pricing around the world. As I've previously noted, the spread of carbon pricing during the past decade has been remarkable. Once confined to a few small economies in northern Europe, it has become a worldwide phenomenon, with more than a dozen major carbon pricing schemes either in place or under development around the world. The major step forward in last year has been the start of five regional pricing schemes in China, although trading in these markets remains relatively illiquid. The expansion of carbon pricing in China is set to continue this year as two more trial schemes go live. A year from now, assuming current programmes run to schedule, carbon pricing will be in place in jurisdictions that together account for between a fifth and a quarter of total global CO2 emissions from energy and industrial processes.
Not all emissions in these jurisdictions are priced, as governments use other policy instruments to reduce emissions in particular sectors, for example surface transport in the EU. Nevertheless, by next year over 10% of the world's energy and industry CO2 emissions are likely to be priced.
On the Chart below the top (blue) line shows how the percentage of emissions in jurisdictions with pricing has grown over the last decade. The total includes all energy and industry CO2 emissions taking place in each jurisdiction with carbon pricing. Thus, if all jurisdictions in the world had carbon pricing in place the total coverage would be shown as 100%. The lower (green) line shows the percentage of energy and CO2 emissions that are actually priced. For example, the EU accounts for around 11% of emissions, but only a little under half of these are priced by the EUETS. The gap between the blue and the green lines is the proportion of emissions covered by other policies, or by no policy. Even if carbon pricing were to be extended to 100% of jurisdictions it is likely that some emissions would remain unpriced.
CO2 emissions from land use and emissions of other greenhouse gases are excluded from the calculations. Including these would reduce the proportion of emissions in jurisdictions with pricing, in part because of a large volume of emissions from deforestation in countries without national carbon pricing, notably in Brazil and Indonesia. Nevertheless the trend is remarkable, and implies that any country considering carbon pricing is very much part of the worldwide policy mainstream.
Coverage of carbon pricing is increasing …
By far the most significant new development over the next few years is likely to be the extension of carbon pricing across all of China, which the Government has indicated it wishes to see in the next few years. This alone would raise global coverage of carbon pricing to over 40%. Indonesia is also looking at carbon pricing with a prospective voluntary market potentially leading to a compulsory market in due course.
We may also see somewhat more widespread carbon pricing in the USA. EPA regulation of existing power plants under the Clean Air Act will oblige states to put in place implementation plans. This may lead states to establish emissions trading schemes, or (more likely) join the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), which covers the power sector only. Indeed some states are understood to have already expressed an interest in doing so, although it is not yet clear in which states interest is strongest. Expansion of Western Climate Initiative trading schemes beyond California and Quebec also remains possible.
There also appears to be a trend towards carbon pricing in Latin America. Mexico may strengthen its currently very limited carbon tax (excluded from the chart) over time. Provinces in Brazil have looked at emissions trading schemes, and discussions on an ETS are now underway in Chile.
Future trends are, however, far from clear, and the commitment by the Australian government to repeal its carbon pricing legislation is an indication that consistent progress is far from guaranteed.
For those involved with carbon pricing day-to-day it is often easy to forget just how recent it is, and just how much progress has been made in a short time. There is still only a single decade of experience, compared with many decades, and in some cases centuries, for other types of regulation. As a regulatory "technology" large scale carbon pricing remains more recent than the ipod, and there is still much to learn and a long way to go. But the achievement to date is both substantial and encouraging.
Notes on inclusion and exclusion from the chart: The small carbon tax introduced in Japan in 2012 by modifying energy taxes is excluded, as is the carbon tax in Mexico, which is small and has limited scope. The Tokyo emissions trading scheme is excluded as its current status is unclear. The Swiss scheme is included in the total for the EU. The status of the Kazakhstan scheme is currently uncertain and I have allowed for a year's delay to 2015. For simplicity the California and Quebec schemes are shown with full coverage from their introduction in 2013, although they do not reach this in practice until next year. Question marks indicate measures which have yet to be enacted.
Comparison with World Bank study: The results here are similar to those from a World Bank Study of carbon pricing from 2013, but on a slightly different basis. The World Bank study quotes just over 10Gt out of 50Gt of emissions taking place in jurisdictions with pricing. This is for all GHGs. The total shown here is around 8Gt out of 34Gt (2012 data) for carbon dioxide emissions from energy and industry. The main difference in the total Gt of emissions in jurisdictions with pricing appears to be due to the inclusion in the World Bank study of a number of jurisdictions where pricing is at an earlier stage than shown here, notably Turkey, Ukraine and Brazil. However South Africa is excluded from the World Bank total, as is British Columbia. The total emissions actually priced is quoted by the World Bank as 3.3 Gt, which is 10% of carbon dioxide from energy and industry and 7% of total GHGs, but this excludes some of the China pilots for which no data was available. I have included estimates in these cases. If the other pilot Chinese schemes were included in the World Bank totals their estimates of coverage would likely increase by about a percentage point (to 11% of energy and industry and 8% of total GHGs), roughly in line with the totals quoted here. The World Bank study can be found at http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2013/05/17751166/mapping-carbon-pricing-initiatives-developments-prospects.
Data: Emissions data is for 2012, from the EDGAR database, with no adjustment for changes in relative volumes over time. Shares at subnational level are estimated based on a range of data. Data sources include http://edgar.jrc.ec.europa.eu/ and Zhao et. al., China's CO2 emissions estimated from the bottom up: Recent trends, spatial distributions, and quantification of uncertainties Atmospheric Environment, Volume 59.

Hi Simon,
I don't know the answer to this, but I think most don't price emissions from biofuels as they are considered renewables and in principle carbon neutral, although of course most are not. Also many carbon pricing schemes exclude the power sector, so would exclude transport biofuels on those grounds anyway. If I find out more I'll get back to you.

9 Women Who Can Cover Whitney Houston Songs
As you're all aware, today is Whitney Houston's birthday! Which means it's time to dust off the old vinyl and have a mini karaoke session. But let's face the facts: we'll all sound horrible trying to copy Whitney's beautiful voice. Only a select few people could pull it off without a hitch. In fact, when it comes to young stars, we can only think of nine females that can sing a Whitney song and make it sound almost as good as the original.

No Shortage Of Potential Bidders For Clippers, As Geffen, Mayweather State Interest
Published April 30, 2014
SMALL CHANGES IN SHORT TERM: In L.A., Broderick Turner notes Clippers President Andy Roeser will "continue to run the day-to-day business operations" of the team following Sterling's lifetime ban from the NBA. Clippers coach Doc Rivers, who also is Senior VP/Basketball Operations, will "continue to run the basketball side" (L.A. TIMES, 4/30). In N.Y., Billy Witz notes after Silver's announcement, the Clippers released a statement declaring, "We wholeheartedly support and embrace the decision by the NBA and Commissioner Adam Silver today. Now the healing process begins." Roeser said of the statement, "Doc and I approved that." Witz notes an "example of how the Clippers operate came Monday, when they had meetings to address Sterling's comments and answer questions about the league's investigation." Rivers "directed a meeting at the team's facility in Playa Vista, Calif.," while Roeser and Senior VP/Marketing & Sales Carl Lahr and VP/Marketing & Broadcasting Christian Howard "met in the team's business offices at Staples Center." Sterling's absence for now will "have little effect" (N.Y. TIMES, 4/30). In L.A., Bresnahan, Bolch & Rainey note Sterling's own management team yesterday "distanced itself from the owner," posting a "WE ARE ONE" message on the team's website. Clippers VP/Communications Seth Burton said, "As an organization, we wanted to make a stand, apart from Sterling's comments. As players, coaches and an organization, we don't agree with those comments." Silver yesterday "informed Clippers representatives shortly before he went on national television to announce Sterling's fate" (L.A. TIMES, 4/30).
LONG-TERM FUTURE UNCERTAIN: In Newark, Craig Wolff notes it is "possible that at least in the short term, the Clippers will fall under the stewardship of Sterling's estranged wife, Rochelle." The couple is separated. Sources said that the NBA's investigation "began in haste on Saturday and wrapped up Monday night." That was after an attorney for the league and second lawyer hired by the league, David Anders, met with V. Stiviano, Sterling's girlfriend whose voice appears on the audiotape in which Sterling makes his racist comments, and her attorney (Newark STAR-LEDGER, 4/30). Meanwhile, Rivers said that he "didn't believe the sale or the transfer of the franchise would include" Rochelle Sterling, who attended last night's Warriors-Clippers Game 5. He added, "I don't know. It doesn't sound like it to be honest. And I think she knows that but she still wanted to be here" (ESPNLA.com, 4/30).

'I am very happy to make this website, designed by Liz, official.'
Zoë Wanamaker CBE
My name is Liz, and I manage the website. For details of when and why it was created, please see the section about this website.
Zoë has an official Twitter account, @ZoeWanamaker, that she runs with her PA, Vanessa. I tweet at @LizLockhart1985.
Sam Wanamaker Playhouse:
You can donate to the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, and find out more about this recreation of an indoor Jacobean theatre, on the Shakespeare's Globe website. Zoë, who is Honorary President of the Globe, talks about the history and significance of the project in a video by the theatre.

You can now listen to Zoe's 'Off the Record' interview, which was organised by The Actors Centre and recorded on 4 November in front of a lively audience at London's Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
It's a wide-ranging, fascinating talk. Enjoy!
21 November 2014 23:59
Whether you saw Zoë as quirky poet Stevie Smith at the Chichester Festival Theatre earlier this year or have yet to witness her powerhouse performance, you are sure to find this news exciting: Stevie transfers to London's Hampstead Theatre from March.
The news was first announced late last night by the Daily Mail's entertainment columnist, Baz Bamigboye, and has been widely reported in the performing arts press today. Articles appear in The Stage, Official London Theatre, Whatsonstage.com and LondonTheatre.co.uk. You can also read the theatre's own announcement about Zoe's 'highly anticipated return' to its main stage, where she last performed in 1994's Dead Funny.
Zoe won rave reviews when Stevie opened the prestigious Chichester Festival 2014. In the Guardian's words, 'Zoë Wanamaker is so perfectly cast in Hugh Whitemore's play about the life and work of the poet Stevie Smith that you don't feel so much that she's acting as simply channelling the mid-20th century poet and novelist'. Now Zoe looks set to take audiences in the Capital by storm too.
Stevie is scheduled to run at Hampstead Theatre from 6 March to 18 April 2015. Priority booking for Friends of the theatre opened today; public booking opens on 28 November. For details and to book tickets, please see the theatre's website.
21 November 2014 23:21
Zoë is set to play the nineteenth-century German musician and composer, Clara Schumann, when Clara's Song premieres at London's Royal Academy of Arts on 30 November. This one-off performance will celebrate the music of Schubert, Schumann and Brahms.
Clara's Song has been devised by tenor Keith Lewis and written by Zoe's husband, Gawn Grainger. Zoe will provide the spoken word; Keith Lewis will perform several songs; and classical pianist Melvyn Tan will provide musical accompaniment.
For details and to book tickets, see the RA's website.
21 November 2014 22:34
The past month or so has generated a whirlwind of news, events and other activities, hence this bumper news round-up!
Zoë will appear in an episode of ITV's Let's Do Christmas... With Gino & Mel. Presented by chef Gino D'Acampo and Melanie Sykes, the daytime series will offer TV viewers culinary tips for the festive season, while a range of famous faces lend a hand in the kitchen. Let's Do Christmas... will be broadcast on weekday lunchtimes from 8 December. More details about Zoe's episode to follow.
Zoë's fans have plenty of opportunity to enjoy some festive cheer while supporting good causes this Christmastime. I've previously mentioned that Zoe is due to be a speaker at The Sick Children's Trust carol service (4 December; St Marylebone Parish Church). She is now also due to speak at the Asthma UK carol concert (2 December; St Luke's Church, Chelsea) and the Prostate Cancer UK 'Carols by Candlelight' service (3 December; St Paul's Church, Knightsbridge). Tickets for each of these London events are currently available.
Zoë's other charity work includes presenting and narrating an awareness film about Leuka, the Leukaemia research charity, and its work. As Leuka explains, this moving film 'shares the compelling stories of two patients and their loved ones'. It looks at new treatments as well as highlighting the importance of more research.
Last Sunday, Zoë was a special guest at The River's opening night on Broadway. Other special guests included Anna Wintour, Ivanka Trump and Donna Karan. The drama, by Jez Butterworth, focuses on a new couple's moonlight visit to a fishing cabin. It is directed by Ian Rickson, and stars Hugh Jackman, Cush Jumbo and Laura Donnelly. For details and photos, see BroadwayWorld, Playbill and TheaterMania.
Earlier this month, Zoë was interviewed by fellow actor Paul Clayton as part of The Actors Centre's 'Off the Record' series of talks, which are designed to help and inspire the next generation of performers. The event, hosted by the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London, was a sell-out success. Zoe and Paul were photographed behind-the-scenes shortly before it began. More details to follow.
A couple of days before that, Zoe attended the British Guild of Travel Writers awards dinner, held at The Savoy in London. Shakespeare's Globe's Sam Wanamaker Playhouse was highly commended in the Best UK Tourism Project category. You can see a photo of Zoe accepting this honour, courtesy of the BGTW's Twitter profile.
Going back further, to mid-October, Zoë helped to judge The Alternative Miss World 2014 competition, the brainchild of English artist and sculptor Andrew Logan. This spectacular, neon-themed show, which celebrated transformation and self-expression instead of conventional beauty, took place at a packed Shakespeare's Globe. Among Zoe's fellow judges were Fenella Fielding, Daniel Lismore, Zandra Rhodes, Suggs and more. Zoe is pictured alongside Daniel Lismore and Suggs on Twitter. The winner was Miss Zero + (real name Sasha Frolova), who wore a show-stopping latex outfit. For insider insights and photos, see The Globe's blog, David McAlmont's article for Beige Magazine and Nicola Middleton's article for This is Cabaret.
Last but not least is the news that Zoe has lent her voice to food brand Bisto's Together Project advert.
Bisto says the initiative is intended to go a step further than bringing people together round the dinner table – it aims 'to bring even more people together, whatever the barriers'. If you'd like to be in with the chance of Bisto helping to bring you together with someone, you can submit your story through the project's website.
Thanks to Janet for her help.
30 October 2014 23:10
A large new collection of screenshots from some of Zoe's TV roles, including Love Hurts and My Family, is available to view online, thanks to River Song, a digital and screenshot artist.
You can view all of the images on Facebook.

Detroit, MI (SportsNetwork.com) - David Krejci and Reilly Smith scored once each in regulation, then tallied again in the shootout and the Boston Bruins posted a 3-2 victory over the Detroit Red Wings at Joe Louis Arena.
Tuukka Rask made 18 stops for the Bruins, who had lost three in a row after a season-opening win against the Flyers.
"A real tough win. But a win we deserved," Boston coach Claude Julien said. "Probably the best game we've played to this point."
Tomas Tatar and Gustav Nyquist lit the lamp for the Red Wings, who fell to 1-1-1 on the year. Jimmy Howard took the loss despite stopping 37 pucks.
"Howie stole us a point here tonight," noted Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock. "All in all tonight we weren't as good as we'd like to be. We've just gotta be better."
Krejci's successful split of two Detroit defenders up the middle resulted in the game's first goal on a forehand from the low slot at 5:12 of the first period.
The Wings evened the score at 8:40 on Tatar's high, sharp-angle shot from the right wing.
Rask did the splits to deny a Luke Glendening breakaway just prior to the five-minute mark of the second period, and the Bruins repaid that effort by taking a 2-1 lead at 13:31 as Patrice Bergeron fed into the slot for a successful one-timer from Smith.
On a Wings advantage with less than three minutes elapsed in the third, Nyquist was allowed to skate in alone from the bottom to the top of the right circle, before snapping a shot home high and to the far side.
Daniel Paille's drive from the left wing rang off the far post inside of five minutes left in regulation, and Boston failed to click with a 3-on-1 break almost 90 seconds into the extra session.
Krejci completed the first round of the shootout with a hard wrister past Howard, and after Nyquist missed just wide of the left post, Smith ended the contest by scoring inside the right post after several dekes.
Boston had accumulated a 3-6 record in shootouts last year, while Detroit
finished 5-9 ... Simon Gagne, signed by the Bruins to a one-year, $600,000
contract on Tuesday, participated in his 800th career game and first
since April 27, 2013 with the Flyers.
Oklahoma freshman Samaje Perine rushed for 427 yards against Kansas on Saturday to break the single-game FBS record, which was just a week old.
Kasey Kahne will continue to drive for Hendrick Motorsports through the 2018 Sprint Cup season, signing a three-year contract extension on Thursday.
The Cleveland Browns activated wide receiver Josh Gordon on Saturday, a day before he is set to make his season debut against Atlanta.
The Chicago White Sox have reportedly agreed to a two-year contract with first baseman Adam LaRoche on Friday.
The Orlando Magic revealed on Friday that rookie forward Aaron Gordon underwent successful surgery on a broken toe.
Edmonton Oilers forward Benoit Pouliot is out indefinitely after suffering a broken foot in Friday's game against the New Jersey Devils, the team announced during the second intermission.

Former Prime Minister of Ukraine Mykola Azarov.
© www.kmu.gov.ua
Azarov orders officials to repay wage arrears within two days
Party of Regions says Azarov has every chance of again becoming prime minister
Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Andriy Kliuyev says Mykola Azarov has a good chance to lead the government again.
When asked the odds of Azarov becoming the prime minister again, Kliuyev said: "The odds are good I believe. The thing is he is an experienced prime minister, he has worked in the cabinet for a long time, and I think that he is a worthy candidate. "
When asked whether he himself was ready to lead the government, Kliuyev said: "It is a big responsibility to be prime minister, especially in such a difficult time."
Kliuyev was elected to the parliament on the list of the Party of Regions, but has turned down his MP's mandate.
As reported, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych accepted the resignation of Prime Minister Azarov and the entire Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
The head of state has signed a relevant decree on December 3, after Azarov filed in his resignation, due to his election as an MP.
According to Article 115 of the Constitution of Ukraine, the entire government has to be dismissed following the prime minister's resignation. Thus, the president accepted the resignation of the Cabinet of Ministers.
At the same time, following Part 5 of Article 115 of the constitution, the president ordered the government to carry out its duties until the new government begins to work.

From: Oak Grove, VA
Region: Mid-Atlantic
Topic: Container Gardens
Title: Native plant for container on deck in Oak Grove VA
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:What VA native plant can I grow in a container on my deck that will block the view from the neighbor's deck? I am thinking columnar. This is in full sun and gets hot winds off of a bay. The plant will cook out there, even if I water it 2 times a day.
You may have answered your own question when you said "the plant will cook out there." Container plants are much more susceptible to variations in temperature in a container than they would be in the ground. In the ground, the roots have the insulation of the Earth all around it. In a pot, they have a few inches of soil and a plastic or ceramic skin between them and the heat or cold.
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is dedicated to the growth, propagation and protection of plants native not only to North America but to the areas in which those plants natively grow. Begin by reading our How-To Article Container Gardening with Native Plants.
We will look at possibilities by going to Recommended Species, clicking on Virginia on the map and, on the sidebar on the right-hand side, select "shrub" under General Appearance and "sun" under Light Requirement, and Narrow Your Search. Our of 7 shrubs on the resulting list, we found exactly one shrub that we thought might work, Morella cerifera (Wax myrtle). This plant is evergreen, graceful and open and the foliage is fragrant. If you follow the plant link above and read the webpage on this plant in our database, you will learn that it grows to from 6 to 12 ft., is an excellent screening plant, likes slightly acidic soils and sun or part shade. We have grown many of these, but have no experience with them as container plants.
Another thought we had concerned native grasses. None of them get any taller than about 3 ft., but in, say, 3 containers grouped in a row to make them taller, they would make a nice screen. Because their roots are rhizomes instead of spreading woody roots like the wax myrtle, they might fare better in the containers. We found these by going to our Native Plant Database, because we don't have very complete lists of grasses and grass-like plants in our Recommended Species. We selected "Virginia" on the drop-down menu, "grass or grass-like" under General Appearance and "sun" under Light Requirements and Submit Combination Search. From those we chose 3 possibilities:
Calamagrostis canadensis (Bluejoint) - 3 to 5 ft. tall, perennial, stands up well in Winter
Muhlenbergia capillaris (Gulf muhly) - perennial to 3 ft. tall, sun
Schizachyrium scoparium (Little bluestem) - perennial to 3 ft, sun or part shade
Beyond these plant suggestions, you may find you need to construct or have constructed some kind of screen, like a trellis, that will stand up to the winds and give you the screening you need.
