They chew the fat, set the world to rights, take the piss. They talk about their wives, their kids, their kids' pets, their football teams and - this being Ireland in 2011-12 -about the euro, the crash, the presidential election, the Queen's visit. But these men are not parochial or small-minded; one of them knows where to find the missing Colonel Gaddafi (he's working as a cleaner at Dublin Airport); they worry about Greek debt, the IMF and the bondholders ( whatever they might be); in their fashion, they mourn the deaths of Whitney Houston, Donna Summer, Davy Jones and Robin Gibb; and they ask each other the really important questions like 'Would you ever let yourself be digitally enhanced?' Inspired by a year's worth of news,Two Pints distils the essence of Roddy Doyle's comic genius. This book shares the concision of a collection of poems, and the timing of a virtuoso comedian.Product details Format HARDBACK Categories Contemporary Fiction, Irish Fiction, Christmas Gifts Under €15 ISBN 9780224097819Publisher Jonathan Cape Delivery DeliveriesPlace a book or eReader order for over €10 to receive free delivery to anywhere in Ireland and the UK!

bagyo 5pts My my my how the world has changed. I couldn't imagine the day that i would see a $69,000 Hyundai. Are pigs flying right now?! LoL It's nice and all but i wonder whose going to spend their hard earned 69K for a Hyundai. I'm not hatin', I'm just sayin'. I'm sure this will to well but i dont know man. Really?..........LoL
ThrottleBlip 5pts Thats perhaps the best looking digital gauge cluster i've seen. Plenty of color (Red!), easy to read and elegant looking. Not so sure about the outside though. Time for a redesign.
JamesCMan 5pts This is just another wannabe car. Hyundai is still a low-class company. Making a car $60k and copying German cars styling still doesn't make it any good. You can dress up a monkey, but it's still just a monkey.
bluepond 5pts With this 2014 Equus you are getting a car that is so much more luxurious than the Merc E Class, while being in the same price category. It is up to you to pay 10~20k more for just a Badge in order to show off to your shallow neighbors or not. We all know that truly rich people mostly do not care much about what others think about what they drive.
GeepSpot 5pts I think I would get a Chrysler 300 SRT8 over this. The Chrysler is still loaded with features and can be had for about $10K less. Plus the SRT8 would blow the doors off this thing.
KEC 5pts I would consider this car if i could afford that price range, except, there is only one Hyundia and Kia dealer around and i refuse to put up with their crap. I've never been so insulted trying to buy a car in my life! I won't own a car i have to go 50+ miles to get to a dealer.I've never owned a Mercedes, but know people that have. The only comments i ever hear is they are always in the shop and no mechanic will touch them around here. Its 50+ miles to nearest dealer.
carenthusiast13 5pts This is the car for the person who is content with being able to get into a full-size luxury sedan without the price associated with one. They must enjoy pulling up to a Mercedes, Audi or BMW owner and showing off the amenities they got for their money, however an owner of that car would not care what the Equus has to offer because in that segment, the only thing that matters is status.
justbeinghonest 5pts Why are so many people bashing this car? It has a nice interior, good ride, and pricing that undercuts the competition by thousands. If what you are looking for is a good ride, tons of space, nice interior, and nice price, then this is sure to meet those needs.
Robert E 5pts I have been reading the comments and I realize that most of you have never owned any of the cars you are talking about and that OK. It's BS for you to comment about something you don't actually know anything about. For what it is worth I have been a new and used car dealer for almost 40 years. I have owned those cars.. I have owned a Mercedes S Class. It was the best driving car I have ever owned; but, it was a maintenance hog. Replaced the timing chain at 60K and had leaking head gaskets between the block and head (oil leak) that cost over $5,000 to fix. Have had Jaguars.. They are much better now; but they until the current model drove like an old car. You can really see this when you have access to a German luxury car to drive at the same time. The new LS460 Lexus looks like a small LS. I think the car is really ugly with the new grille. Who wants an $80,000 luxury car that looks like a $40000. car. The LS is a great car..The point you are missing is the $$$ amount.. For the price of an "E" Class Mercedes with comparable equipment you can buy an Equus.. That is the comparison that should be looked at. My son owns a new E550 and I am in the process of getting a new 2014 Equus. I have driven the 2012 Equus and the E550 and the Equus has the room, ride, and comfort I am looking for.
Kvnceleste 5pts You have to give Hyundai credit for a good first attempt at a full size luxury sedan. Personally, I would rather get the new Kia Quoris when it reaches dealers here next year (I heard that Kia might change the name of the Quoris)
SAharino 5pts This is overpriced Korean crap. And it just looks like a copy of luxury cars already out, they are shameless with the copying.
Seva25 5pts I hope that Hyundai has used that $1,750 to figure out a way of reclining the rear seat without making the front passenger get out of the car.
Tina_Dang 5pts It's so sad/funny that Hyundai ( a brand that has a history of cheap FWD econoboxes) has a fullsized, RWD, V8-powered luxury sedan in its stable and Cadillac, the so called standard of the world, does not. Sigh.
LL909 5pts This amount of money for a HYUNDAY ?? im sure its nice but still the name says somethign too
0-60 5pts My grandfather has this car and loves it. It's all about the buyer. I doubt this car will pull anyone away from an s class, 7 series or A8 but it will from the ls460, RLX, and xts. I personally think the car is very good in every regard except the outside styling. So bland.
ALF- Gordon Shumway 5pts Get a everday commuter, run-about nameplate and add luxury models (sprinkle wood here and there, vinyl [lol], leather) and sell it off as luxury. It's like a play from MB's playbook; a play that has carried out here in the US for years.
BlackDynamiteOnline 5pts All they did was reverse-engineer a Lexus LS, build it with cheaper Korean labor, save money on the overhead of not having a luxury marque (AKA luxury in a brown paper bag), and sell it at a 10-15% discountWhy do you think they won't make a luxury marque in the first place? Their cars would have to stand on their own for floor traffic, and they'd have to actually put some work into making original product, and not copying the rest of the major players like the 5-series (Genesis) and the LS460 (Equus)BD
bdean 5pts @bagyo Not like you really have to wonder since Hyundai has sold over 9k Equus sedans in NA.
bdean 5pts @JamesCMan What German styling is the Equus copying?IMercedes took a cue from Hyundai's "fluidic sculpture" design language in designing the F800 Style concept which serves as the foundation of the current Mercedes design.And while you may consider Hyundai to be a "low class" company, the most exclusive European fashion/design house, Hermes, does not since they joined Hyundai in developing the special edition "Equus by Hermes" (and Prada previously had worked on the Prada Genesis).And you think the old A and B Class Mercedes were anything other than cheap econoboxes? lolEven the C Class, GLK, 3 Series and X3 (among others) finally got interiors that weren't embarrassing for their price and even now wouldn't really be considered the level of luxury (and that's only counting the higher end US spec models and not counting the cheaper Euro models with cloth seats and anemic powerplants - like for the E Class which serves as a go-to taxi fleet model in Europe).
yquinterobuy 5pts @Mchicha That's what I'm saying, I work for Cadillac and thy're planning on making a big sedan, it will be a game changer
Uncommon Sense 5pts @bluepond Truly reach do not care about this 10-20k difference. You get Equus - you pretty much declare that you don't belong. Even though Hyundai deserves the credit for trying. Who knows, it might create a business case for bringing back modern day Caprice Classic, Grand Marquis, or Phaeton.
bdean 5pts @justbeinghonest And that was exactly the same thing with the LS400 when it launched with an MSRP of $35k (which was below the price of a well-equipped E Class, much less the S Class).Plus, the LS460 still undercuts the Germans by thousands as well.
Uncommon Sense 5pts @Robert E Your Lexus paragraph seems to be messed up. Perhaps you meant to type "GS" in few spots. Hyundai is an easy target because the brand is associated with cheap cars, not ultra luxury. According to JD, long term reliability is not consistent either (though, it seems to be improving according to some). Perception is that Genesis/Equuis are step down vehicles for those who cannot afford the real deal.
deeperseoul 5pts @SAharino Like Ford Fusion to Aston Martin? or Corvettes starting to look more like Ferraris? So why people still buy Copy-cat cars by Koreans still? Also, most Hyundais are designed in Irvine CA, USA by mostly Americans so you might want to call those "Shameless Americans".
bdean 5pts @SAharino Only automaker that has been called out for copying has been Toyota/Lexus for the LS430 by the head of Mercedes design at the time.
bdean 5pts @Fb22279 So what?Mercedes sells garbage trucks with the Tri-Star badge in Europe and the flagship of the Toyota fleet is the Toyota Century and not the Lexus LS (which at one time was badged a Toyota in Japan).
SAharino 5pts @ALF- Gordon Shumway Sounds to me like you're jealous because you drive a crappy Toyota. Mercedes has the strongest build quality in the world and has various supercars that run 0-60 mph in less than 4 seconds. And of course, Mercedes has the prestigious name of being a racing legend along with being the ultimate standard of luxury. Just look at the famous Mercedes S-class and all of its innovative advanced technology.
bdean 5pts @mynamehere Don't look much like each other and kinda tough to do when both came out around the same time.
Mchicha 5pts @BlackDynamiteOnline Labor eh? No one reverse engineers a grandpa car. Korea is coming to eat Japanese lunch.
bdean 5pts @BlackDynamiteOnline Hmmm - and yet, Hyundai managed to make the Equus have better driving dynamics than the LS460 (well, according to Car & Driver - granted, that doesn't mean much).And selling at a "discount"? LOLThat's what Toyota did with the LS400 when it launched with an absurdly low MSRP of $35k - which is LOWER than a well equipped E Class, nevermind the S Class.And even today, the LS460 still sells for a cool $20k less than the S Class which is a major reason why it sells relatively well in the flagship segment (albeit not nearly as well when it was beyond cheap) - which is pretty much only the diff. of the expense of having a separate luxury brand/dealer network when it comes to the pricing of the Equus in comparison.As for "copying"- Toyota totally copied the German luxury segment with the IS, GS and LS sedans and the LS430 forced the head of Mercedes design to publically call out Toyota for copying.Even today, the fugly "Predator grill" on the Lexus lineup is a copy of the grill on the Hyundai Nuvis concept.
COO 5pts @BlackDynamiteOnline The dash of the F150 has more personality that this Equus.. I agree with your comparison, still dont you think they do poorly at it? A 5 Series BMW even do I dont like the new model still looks stunning, and the Lexus LS460 with the sport package F what they call it looks menacing.. I mean what I am trying to say is they try.. But I guess the chinese only want to copy the competition as it has been shown in past years..
Jeremy Moore 5pts @bdean @bagyoAnd in that same amount of time BMW sold 33k 7series, Mercedes sold 36k S classes, Lexus sold 28k LS's, Audi sold 18k A-8's, even low volume Jaguar sold 15k XJ's. The Equus is getting outsold by pretty much all of it's rivals. Handily. I'd be surprised if it sees 3 more years in production to be honest.
bdean 5pts @JamesCMan In addition, the modern-Audi got their start with the Audi A50 econobox hatch which was later taken by VW and renamed the Polo and only fairly recently has Audi been taken seriously as a luxury make.Even BMW had periods of modesty - such as the time when the BMW Isetta (the "Urkelmobile") saved BMW from financial ruin.
bdean 5pts @Uncommon Sense @bluepond Um, who did you think bought all of the original Lexus LS400 when it was priced at $35k and Lexus had no brand cachet?Even today, the LS460 is a bargain compared to the S Class.
yquinterobuy 5pts @BrianD Good for you I'm sure someone out there has a Kia sorento with the same miles some where out there, my chevy has 288K miles , and runs great, let me know if yours gets there....
Jeremy Moore 5pts @bdean @bagyoI might also add that those numbers are just for the US. You add in Canadian sales and the gap widens even bigger.
bdean 5pts @Uncommon Sense @bdean @bluepond Sorry, but the original starting MSRP when the LS400 was launched was $35k .And so what about Lexus being a "luxury brand"?It's simply nothing more than a separate SALES channel as Lexus models were sold in Japan as Toyotas until Toyota later launched the Lexus brand in Japan.Are you the type that would say that the USDM Lexus branded LS400 was superior to the JDM Toyota branded Celsior?And the Lexus LS460 isn't even the flagship sedan of the Toyota fleet - that being the TOYOTA Century.And Equus owners don't ever have to step foot in a dealership so they have one up on LS owners who have to schlep their way to the dealership.As for the LS600h, it has been a complete failure (doesn't even sell with discounts as much as $15k) so who cares.
Uncommon Sense 5pts @bdean @Uncommon Sense @bluepond Well, the price was $38k, so if you want to round the number properly then it should be $40k, not 35. It also competed with Cadillac and Lincoln. So, no it was not aimed at super rich exclusively (even though rich did not ignore the LS).Other thing: Lexus was started as Luxury brand with its own dealer network (luxury/premium treatment all around). When I think of Hyundai dealer I think of people who are happy to get a loan on Accent or Elantra, not the people who can write a check for $70k like it is not a big deal.LS 460 is a bargain: well it is outclasses by S class, so the price seems to be right. But LS 600h starts at $120k (you can get Equus + Genesis for that money). That's hardly a bargain.
bdean 5pts @Marcus So what does it say when the Equus beat the LS460 in a Car & Driver comparison?And pretty much all the reviews say the Equus rides/drives like a full size luxury sedan, albeit more in the mold of the LS or an old time Cadillac than say, the 7 Series.And the Equus was developed solely to ferry Korean CEOs around and wasn't developed for the world market, the next gen Equus will be markedly improved in all areas (mind you, the 1st gen A8 wasn't exactly a world-beater either).As for fools, the real ones are ones who overpaid for a German badge such as buyers of the 1st gen X3 which not only had a horrible ride, but a chinzy interior that was simply embarrassing for the price.I guess all those people who had bought the pre-MCE E Class are fools as well since it was rather underwhelming when it came to driving dynamics and handling (the MCE E Class is much better in that regard that one wonders why Mercedes didn't make the E Class like that from the start).
Marcus 5pts @bdean @Uncommon Sense @bluepond Yeah if you consider just being cheaper as being a "bargain", then yes the LS is a one. It is also much less car than a S-Class and this tarted up Hyundai is even less. You get what you pay for. This car doesn't feel, ride, or drive like a true full size luxury car. The interior is cheap and the design inside and out is completely forgettable. Unlike the first generation Lexus LS, this isn't a great car, the Lexus was. Unlike 1990, the Germans aren't sleeping now either, they're at the top of their game right now. The new S-Class, the outgoing one, the Audi A8, BMW 7-Series all blow this wannabe mess away. Only a fool would pay 60K for this car, the same one that would pay 90K for Lexus LS. The only thing this car offers over the mid-size group of cars like the E-Class and 5-Series is space. Go drive one, there is no way you will come away thinking its worth 60K. At this level it would be the Lexus LS all day long and any higher one of the Germans. M

After getting lured to the arcade and then hit with a barrage of water balloons filled with paint, Chris wants out of Corleone. He begs Rochelle to let him transfer to the neighborhood school, Lamont Sanford Junior High, but Rochelle refuses. Chris tries to get kicked out of school, but can't, until he throws a book at Caruso and it careens out the window, causing Mrs. Milone to get into a car accident. This finally gets him suspended for a week and Chris is excited until he has to deal with Rochelle. After having a talk with Julius it is agreed that Chris can go to another school. After checking into a few private schools it is decided that Chris can go to Lamont Sanford Junior High. Excited, Chris decides to stop by the school to see what his new environment will look like and he accidentally witnesses a scene reminiscent of Corleone; a kid who looks similar to him getting picked on by a group of bullies. Chris realizes that he's going to have the same problems no matter where he goes and he goes back to Corleone.
Julius gets a new job at a fish market. He makes enough money so that he can quit all his other job, but he comes home stinking like fish. The family can't deal with the smell and Julius has to go back to working two jobs.

...is what I set the treadmill on for a brisk walk.
The Number 23, why is it so important?
The other day my family was over and we were planning my daughters communion. When I asked what time would be a good time for the party everybody agreed on 2:30. I didn't think much about it till today when I was writing out her invitations. Jims birthday time is starting to haunt me.lol Then to make things even more stranger is that my house is where we are having the party at. My house is no.23.
I've been looking for 23 all over. I don't find it everywhere....now 7....that's all over the place.
There's enough about mystery in life that I guess I don't need to pay attention to those numbers. "When in doubt, tell the truth."
Mark Twain
I WAS BORN ON THE 23RD AND AM MORE Jim'S AGE. I ALSO HAVE HAD A LOVE FOR THE NUMBER 23 FOR YEARS & PSALM 23 IS ALSO MY ICON!! THANKS Jim!

It's 1 a.m. in the East, and the NHL and the NHL Players' Association just broke up for the day. They are expected to meet again Thursday afternoon -- a third day in a row between a select group of owners and players.
That's a good thing because about two hours ago, it nearly blew. But the two sides are working through what's been a tense-filled, yet productive day as they work toward trying to reach a collective bargaining agreement and end the now-82-day lockout.
Good morning. I will be in studio on KFAN on Thursday morning from 9-9:35 a.m. CT.
But, ...
After the Board of Governors meeting earlier Wednesday, players and owners gathered in Manhattan at 2 p.m. The players made a proposal. The owners countered an hour later. The players spent time putting together a response, and that was presented after dinner. The owners quickly left the room, came back, and so on and so on.
Basically, the excitement and optimism of yesterday turned into natural difficulty at times today as both sides got down to the nitty-gritty. I am told there were some very tense exchanges, some near blowups, but they patched that together and were still working with smaller groups until 1 a.m.
Ron Hainsey told reporters on the scene they had a series of "candid discussions."
I've talked with both sides of the aisle about an hour ago and there was a lot more positivity than I was hearing earlier in the day. But the way it's being described from people very much involved is "delicate juncture" and at a "serious point."
Said Deputy Commissioner: "There are critical open issues between the two parties."
USA Hockey unveiled a new "Heads Up, Don't Duck" instructional video featuring Olympians Jenny Potter and Ryan Suter, the new Wild defenseman.
The :Heads Up, Don't Duck" safety initiative dates back to 1996 and is aimed at reducing spinal cord and other debilitating injuries.
"Dr. Ashare, the current chair of our safety and protective committee, helped launch this important program nearly two decades ago," said Dr. Michael Stuart, chief medical officer of USA Hockey. "The basic premise of the program has not changed, however, we created this updated video piece to ensure that every player and coach understands the importance of keeping your head up."
"We've been out in front on safety issues over the course of our history," said Dave Ogrean, executive director of USA Hockey. "Heads Up, Don't Duck has long been one of our signature safety programs and is part of our broad SafeSport program that addresses both on and off-ice safety of our participants."

check my spam
The act of checking one's e-mail even though you're certain you've received no important communication. In other words, it's when people compulsively and frequently check their e-mail even when they're not expecting an important message, and hence only end up deleting all of the spam. For example, "Could you hurry up so I can get online and check my e-mail?" "Who are you kidding, you just checked it an hour ago and all your friends are at practice." "Yeah, I know, I gotta check my spam."

Friends joke that i 'look like a girl', not knowing that i'm certainly not taking that as a negative :) (self.transpositive)
submitted 2 years ago by Confused_1208
Over the holidays, going to some parties with friends that haven't seen me with my hair grown out a bit and a totally clean-shaven face resulted in a couple people joking that they confused me for some girl that they didn't know. Joke is on them, that's certainly a compliment to me!
It is nice to have something that gives me a little ray of hope in light of the trouble that i'm having figuring out transition stuff. I'm not yet on hrt, and i feel like the clock is certainly ticking and there's not much that i can do. I'm not out to my family other than my mom, and i'm not sure if i ultimately can transition because i don't want to hurt my family, but at the least i had fun with friends and got a few compliments, even if they were unintentional! :)

I love your attitude :) I'd probably be a bit taken aback that they meant it as an insult-ish joke, eventhough I'd love it at the same time. Does this make sense? How did you react?
[–]Confused_1208[S] 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
It makes sense, but i was just surprised and kinda happy. fortunately the only friend that i am out to was at the party as well, so he found it amusing too!

A few months after starting hormones, I was still firmly in the closet at work. To save some money, I bought a scooter to commute to work on.
One of my female coworkers asked me in private, "I mean, doesn't it bother you? Isn't a scooter usually seen as a girl's bike? Why not a motorcycle?"
I'm just thinking, "I am standing in front of your wearing panties and a sports bra under my boy clothes. I have barely any testosterone in my system and estrogen is running through my veins. Do you think I give a FLYING FUCK about riding a "girly vehicle" :D"
It took so much effort not to blurt that out. In the end I gave some BS about practicality, preferring an automatic transmission, etc. But that moment was just priceless.
[–]Confused_1208[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Haha that's hilarious! :D Since i'm not out to most of my family/friends, I try to make sure that everything that i want to do has a 'reasonable excuse' so that i have an explanation that doesn't raise any questions. for example, when i decided to paint my nails, i justified it to everyone as simply a way to break my habit of biting my nails, which while true was certainly not my only reason for doing it.

[–]Fahris<3 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Haha. I was at my aunt's house for Christmas Eve, and their 6 year old daughter said I looked like a girl because I'd painted my nails (my 13 year old cousin from the same family had called me a faggot when he saw a painted nail on my left hand the previous day, so I painted the rest to weird him out more). She proceeded to dress me up as a princess.
I got a kick out of that. The other cousin, less so.
Hehe that is adorable! I am glad you got to dress up and stuff, kids can be great because they are so innocent and loving, but some kids can be hurtful without even realizing that they are being mean.

Fwiw, before I came out, my sisters and a few of my friends would joke me and say stuff like "You girly fuck" or "Are you sure you don't have a vagina?" or "I swear, you should have been a damn girl". But you know what? During my coming out and through transition they ended up being some of the most receptive and supportive people. Why you may ask? Because according to them when I came out, all of it all of a sudden made sense. Sure, I lost a friend or 20 over my transition but that's their loss, not mine.

man i really know how you feel :D. i've moved with some friends together in a shared flat.. first time after shower, clean shaved and open hair one of them gave me a confused look and said something like "it's... uhm... different to see you like that..." made me chuckle inside ~//~
also (yay anecdotes \o/ ) a skinhead once asked me "are you a boy or a girl harharharharhar!" not knowing he gave me a huge compliment :3
anyway. glad to hear it happens to others too. i'm happy for you :3

Weak or damaged valves in the veins can cause varicose veins. After your arteries and capillaries deliver oxygen-rich blood to your body, your veins return the blood to your heart. The veins in your legs must work against gravity to do this.
One-way valves inside the veins open to let blood flow through, and then they shut to keep blood from flowing backward. If the valves are weak or damaged, blood can back up and pool in your veins. This causes the veins to swell.
Weak vein walls may cause weak valves. Normally, the walls of the veins are elastic (stretchy). If these walls become weak, they lose their normal elasticity. They become like an overstretched rubber band. This makes the walls of the veins longer and wider, and it causes the flaps of the valves to separate.
When the valve flaps separate, blood can flow backward through the valves. The backflow of blood fills the veins and stretches the walls even more. As a result, the veins get bigger, swell, and often twist as they try to squeeze into their normal space. These are varicose veins.
Normal Vein and Varicose Vein
Older age or a family history of varicose veins may raise your risk for weak vein walls. You also may be at higher risk if you have increased pressure in your veins due to overweight or obesity or pregnancy.

Rookie goaltender Chad Johnson earned his first victory in the National Hockey League, and Marian Gaborik scored three times, as the Rangers snapped a five-game losing streak with an impressive 3-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche at the Pepsi Center in Denver on Sunday night.
Johnson started for the second straight night in the place of No. 1 goalie Henrik Lundqvist who has been felled by a virus. The 23-year-old Johnson, who made 21 saves in a 3-2 loss in Phoenix on Saturday, stopped 34 of 35 shots Sunday to earn his first NHL win in while appearing in his fifth game. He made 17 of his saves on Sunday in the third period.
"You could just sense he was going to play well," said Rangers head coach John Tortorella. "A young guy in this situation, not expecting to play, comes through like this. And the team played well as a team defensively for most of the game. They ramped it up against us in the third period, but that's where Johnny stood tall."
Johnson lost his bid for a shutout with 7:21 remaining in the contest. With the Rangers leading 3-0, the Avalanche put forth a dominating shift in the offensive zone, pinning the Rangers for an extended period in their own end. Cody McLeod finally nudged a rebound past Johnson after the rookie had made a series of strong saves.
"For me, the more I play, the better I am in back-to-back games," said Johnson. "I felt good tonight. And the guys battled hard in front of me. The D played so well, and the forwards blocked a lot of shots, which was awesome. I just wanted to be steady back there and give the team a chance to win."
Gaborik scored one goal in all three periods, and had numerous other good scoring chances throughout the contest. Perhaps energized by his 30th goal one night earlier in Phoenix, Gaborik seemed to snap out of his recent offensive doldrums in which he had scored just twice in the previous 11 games.
"You could tell his first two shifts he was skating," Tortorella said of Gaborik. "You could tell he was ready to skate tonight. Obviously he was a big part of us winning the game."
With 6:07 to go in the first period Gaborik opened the scoring, using defenseman Ryan Wilson as a screen as he unleashed a wicked wrist shot from just inside the blueline. Gaborik actually fired the puck between Wilson's legs and beat Avs goalie Craig Anderson to the stick side to give the Rangers a 1-0 lead.
"You feel better playing with the lead, and we haven't had the lead in too many games," said Gaborik. "When you get that first goal you feel more comfortable and more confident. So it was a huge moment."
Gaborik doubled the Rangers' advantage at 4:57 of the second period by finishing a great cycle of the puck in the offensive zone with Vinny Prospal and Marc Staal. Gaborik laid the puck off to Staal along the left-wing boards, and Staal carried the puck down low to Prospal. The veteran forward then sent a no-look backhand pass to Gaborik in front, and Gaborik beat Anderson to the short side for his second goal of the night.
A couple of minutes later Gaborik nearly scored his third goal, but his tricky left wing snap shot around a defenseman was kicked just wide by Anderson.
Gaborik finished off the hat trick at 9:17 of the third period, beating Anderson on a breakaway snap shot. The Rangers had just completed yet another successful penalty kill, and Prospal sprung Gaborik on left wing with a perfect head-man pass.
The hat trick was the 10th of Gaborik's career, and first since he netted a career-high five goals as a member of the Minnesota Wild against the Rangers back on Dec. 20, 2007. With 33 goals on the season, Gaborik now ranks fourth in the NHL, just four behind Patrick Marleau, the league-leader with 37.
The last Rangers player to record a hat trick prior to Gaborik had been captain Chris Drury on Nov. 6, 2008, at MSG. Gaborik's achievement Sunday was also a rare "natural hat trick", since no other players scored between the Gaborik goals.
Following Gaborik's lead of playing well in both ends of the ice, the Rangers dominated the Avalanche in the second period. Winning battles along the boards, blocking shots and passes in front of Johnson, and producing good offensive chances at the other end, the Rangers thoroughly controlled play over the middle 20 minutes, though they were unable to add to their 2-0 lead before intermission arrived.
So dominant were the Rangers that they did not allow the Avs to record a shot on goal until 4:27 remained in the period. The shot came during a Colorado power play and was followed by a pair of excellent chances down low for Paul Stastny that were denied by an alert and sprawling Johnson.
The Rangers survived that Colorado power play, and were a perfect 6-for-6 on the penalty kill Sunday night, one night after going 7-for-7 on the kill in Phoenix. Staal was a tower of strength on the PK for the Rangers, though contributions came from all members of the penalty killing unit.
Early in the third period the Rangers even received a pair of excellent scoring chances from Christopher Higgins and Wade Redden while shorthanded.
The other part of the Rangers' specialty teams did not fare as well on Sunday. The Rangers had six power-play chances, but were unable to score against the Avalanche, extending their recent struggles on the power play to no goals in 22 opportunities the past six games.
The Rangers actually were awarded a full two-minute two-man advantage just 1:13 into the game, an incredible opportunity to get on the scoreboard early in the contest. But the Rangers could find a way to score, and Ryan Callahan's hooking penalty at 2:53 negated the final 20 seconds of the two-man advantage.
"Overall I thought we played a good game," said Gaborik. "The most important thing is that we got the two points. It's a huge boost of confidence for this team."
Having split the first two games of their three-game road trip, the Rangers finish their trek to the west with a tilt against the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night before returning back home for a big match against the Washington Capitals at Madison Square Garden on Thursday.

UPDATE: The lies of Pink News
Since the LGBT Network's email about twenty minutes ago to Pink News, they have now changed the headline to put the word wedding in inverted commas; who are they quoting?
Anyway nice work Pink News, you now report on issues of same-sex relationships in the same way that the Daily Mail does, by describing our relationships in inverted commas. We are full, equal citizens, Pink News, and our relationships should be afforded the same respect as any one else's. For goodness sake why do we have to explain the struggle for equality to you??
The lies of Pink News
Dear Pink News,
I am writing to complain about the use of the term 'gay wedding' in the above article. What Chris Bryant had was a civil partnership, which as you well know is not a marriage or a wedding. For example adultery is not grounds for dissolution of a civil partnership, as it is for marriage. There are too many differences to properly list here, but the fact that you would call it a marriage is disingenuous and a downright lie to the gay community.
Not only, but the term 'gay marriage' is deeply offensive to those people who believe that LGBT citizens deserve equal rights. It is not a gay form of marriage we should have, but a real, proper marriage, a same-sex marriage, not a gay one. It is incredible to me that Europe's leading LGBT news source does not even know the difference between 'gay marriage' and same-sex marriage.
One further issue is that Pink News never presents a balanced view of the same-sex marriage/civil partnership debate. Some our our staff have sent you articles and opinion pieces about same-sex marriage, none of which you have published, despite often saying that you would. There is never any in depth, journalistic inquiry into the discrepancies of the civil partnership act, and why we should have equal rights.
Yours in disappointment,
LGBT Network

Steven Purcell, Organised Crime and the Fatal Blow
Purcell has now apparently fled the country; to where? One can only guess. They say it's Australia, but our bet is that right now he is sitting in the dark corner of a Costa Del Sol cocktail bar, sharing a bad sangria with his old pal, Tenerife Tony.
Steven Purcell could certainly blend in amongst the red faced British tourists on the Spanish coast, but a overweight, teary eyed, greetin faced Scotsman wandering around Bondi Beach is going to be noticed, and, hopefully extradited.
It's a well known fact that Steven Purcell was also severely suffering from gout pain and was looking for a relief. He found it here while browsing online. We decided to share this really good health website where you can learn how to relieve gout pain so that our readers also take advantage of this resource.
Purcell has left an almighty mess in his wake. A young protege, Danus McKinley, was apparently being groomed by Purcell to become a councillor, collapsed and died, supposedly heart stricken over the downfall of his mentor.
It has now emerged that Purcell's 'chemical dependency' was cocaine, which could explain his erratic behaviour before he jumped ship.
And most worryingly, he was interviewed a number of times by the Scottish Crime and detective agency. Click here to know about this detective agency What most Glaswegians know, but don't really seem to bothered about, is that most things in Glasgow are run by organised criminals. Of course there's the drugs, weapons smuggling and prostitution; but also nightclubs, taxi's and chippy's.
That Purcell could rise to his position, stay in it for five years whilst bringing the Commonwealth Games to the city and NOT having any contacts with the criminal underworld is as likely as him coming back to clear his name. What we need to know is not were there contacts between Purcell and the Mafia, but what were the extend of those contacts, what did they involve, and how much of a blind eye, or a complicit hand, does the City Council have in organised crime?
Remember Kenny MacAskill's big kick against organised crime a while back? It was the one that fizzled out and fell on deaf ears over at Glasgow City Chambers.
What emerges from this unfolding scandal is not a bad willed, coked up megalomaniac, but a poor soul, being used as a mere pawn in the dark agendas of the criminal underworld that really controls Glasgow.

Piss Poor and Damn Right Dangerous...
Mark McDougall (26) and Kerry Robertson (18)
You may remember the story reported by a variety of media sources in 2009 about a Council in Scotland who smashed a couples wedding hopes, claiming that the bride was 'not intelligent enough to get married'. Kerry Robertson originally of Dunfermline, who lives with minor learning disabilities, was prevented from marrying her boyfriend Mark, as the know-it-all civil servants feared she didn't know what she was doing.
Fife Council then decided to make an arse of themselves by telling the media that they had not decided what to do about the baby that Kerry was carrying. This sparked a media furore (BabyChums, The Mirror, GMTV, Daily Telegraph, BBC, FOX News USA, All Right)
Reading the heartbreaking story of Kerry and Mark (and Baby Ben) certainly gets our blood boiling. We hear of Councils making a tit of themselves daily, officers (paid by you and me) making a fool of themselves, yet... never have we heard of an army of arseholes who are employed as social workers and child protection officers within Fife Council, effectivly driving a family from their home and THEIR HOME COUNTRY!
Baby Ben graced the lives of Kerry and Mark on 15th January 2010 and weighed in at 7 lbs 3 oz. What was sure to be the happiest and serene day of his parents lives was spoiled by Irish Social Workers acting on the instructions of halfwits at Fife Council. The Social Workers effectively kidnapped Baby Ben and ruined what should have been the most spectacular few weeks of any couples life.
All excited at the prospect of bringing a bundle of joy into the world, Kerry was offered some words of 'encouragement' at the hands of a Fife Social Worker, who suggested that she may be better served to have a termination. Perhaps the Social Worker won her degree in a lucky bag, or maybe she is just a cold-hearted and callous excuse for a human being? god knows, all we do know is that a cold heart will most certainly win you a promotion and a job for life in Fife Council's Social Work Department.
A blog started by the proud father, lists some really horrific episodes at tells of the abuse suffered at the hands of Fife's Social Work Department. Fife Council seems to be full of pathetic, self obsessed individuals who are only interested in bettering their career prospects and victimising young families. It is all about figures, money and the ratio of success; if they pick an easy target they will have more of a chance of coming out victorious.
On his blog, Mark recalls one incident where a senior social worker thrust a door into Kerry's stomach while she was carrying Baby Ben. Barbara Barnes threw open a door which slammed into heavily pregnant Kerry's tummy, knocking two hot cups of coffee flying all over her. When pressed, sickening Barnes barked "I didn't touch the door, It swung open by itself". Read more about this here.
Social Services are tasked with protecting children and offering support to families, a job which is very difficult and no doubt takes its toll... however, that's no excuse for arseholes like Barbara Barnes to terrorise a young family.
Mark has prepared a roll-call of the arseholes at Fife Council who stopped his wedding and abused him and his girlfriend during her pregancy:
• Amanda Jane Ritchie (Mandy) - SSSC Reg No: 1094568
• Tamara Denise Chalmers Greenhalgh (a student social worker) SSSC Reg. No: 2028053
• Lana Harkness (Arc Housing)
• Barbara Fleming Barnes – SSSC Reg. No: 1096273
• David Deacon – SSSC Reg. No: 1094131
• Charles Gerard Gracie – SSSC Reg. No: 1002887
Kerry and Mark have started a new life in Ireland after being hounded
out of their home by the evil bastards within Fife Council's Social
Work Department.
Read all about Mark and Kerry's ordeal on their blog - http://fifesocialservice.wordpress.com
The service Mark and Kerry has received has been piss poor and highlights not just the wankers at Fife Council's Social Work, but shows the culture of bullying and intimidation which oozes from many of Scotland's Social Work Departments.

"Chemically dependant" Purcell swaps top Glasgow job for rehab
The rate payers of the Glasgow Corporation will be forgiven for wondering what on earth their elected, well furnished, local government members are up to behind the Council's closed doors, doors of course which more often than not shut out us, their bosses.
Steven Purcell, the camp-as-Christmas leader of Glasgow City Council, who ruled the city with a soft skin hand in a mauve glove, resigned over the weekend, citing "stress and exhaustion." What could have been the cause? He dumped his wife and came out as gay back in 2006, so it couldn't have been that. Although 50% of gay men in Glasgow experience mental health problems at some point. For mental and physical well being and to remain healthy, we strongly suggest to do apple cider vinegar body cleaning system caused by the total lack of services for gay people in Scotland's largest city. Bear in mind that Purcell was one of those Councillors who happily let the so called Castro, an unincorporated, unsubstantiated front for scary Socialist turned Solidarity turned Labour Councillor Ruth Black, take over the running of the still and eat pumpkin seeds. Pumpkin seeds are really good for your health. But are pumpkin seeds good for your health? You can get detailed information vy visiting the link we provided before.closed Glasgow LGBT Centre. Never mind of course that the Centre was plagued by allegations of mismanagement and corruption, not that the esteemed Councillors minded that many of those implicated in that scandal were behind this "Castro" bid.
There was the scandal over the otherwise incredibly efficient transport body, known the world over for it's helpful staff and friendly customers, Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT). Ron Culley (pictured), who resigned as the big wig at SPT in February over a £100,000 expenses scandal, has been described as the gay, now ex Glasgow leaders' "mentor".
British politics is knee-deep in euphamisms. Charles Kennedy, the former Lib Dem leader was described as being "tired and emotional," which we now know was shorthand for the fact that he was a raging alcoholic. Purcell resigned citing "stress and exhaustion." And what brought that on? The resignation of one's closest "mentor"?
But to add another twist in the sordid tale, Purcell was admitted to a drug rehab centre, far away from the prying media in the Scottish Borders. The Scotsman reports that the phrase "chemical dependency" was proposed to explain his condition. And what might explain why he allegedly escaped from the rehab clinic? Celebrities and politicians checking into rehab is as regular as them having extra-marital affairs, (see Woods, Tiger and Oaten, Mark), but to then escape and have the police searching for you? The police said:
"A 37-year-old man was reported missing in the Borders area on Sunday, February 28, 2010. While a search was being organised, the man returned."
So what was he doing, popping back into the office to make sure "all his papers were in order" and that "all personal files and effects were stored or removed?" We can only imagine.
In fact we may all have to use our imaginations over this one. Steven Purcell, despite suffering from "stress and exhaustion," he was well enough to hire a crack PR team, who threatened to go to the Press Complaints Commission over the level of media interest. The media interest is hardly on the scale of the Prince Charles Gay Sex Scandal, but all this talk of chemical dependency fuelled relations with a close mentor who was swindling a hundred grand from SPT has got us turned on, turned on to finding out the circumstances of just what it was that brought the grand old Steven Purcell to his knees.

Released: Nov 01st, 2000
Running Time: 59
Director: Vince Benedetti
Company: Gotham Gold
Jessica Lee, Annie Ander Sinn
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Specialty
Knotty boys and girls of legal age and of refined and specialized tastes.
Mmmm ... the many, many splendid pleasures of a bound and gagged hottie, fighting her trusses and whimpering like the abject little victim she is. All sweaty and helpless and pleading for pleasure or pain or, let's hope, a measure of both. How supreme the power, how sublime the authority. Absolute subjectivity to her passive objectivity.
