Israel-Gaza conflict: Glasgow City Council accused of 'gesture politics' after flying Palestinian flag
In a controversial show of support for the people of Gaza, Glasgow City Council raised the Palestinian flag over its chambers in George Square
Saturday 09 August 2014
The Glasgow Jewish Representative Council was left "hurt and betrayed" by the City Council's decision to raise the flag of Palestine as a symbol of solidarity with those in Gaza, in the latest of a series of flag-related controversies around the UK.
"Flying the flag is the worst kind of gesture politics," said Paul Morron, the Glasgow Jewish Representative Council's president.
"It does nothing to alleviate the suffering on either side of the conflict, nor does it bring peace closer by one single minute."
In a letter addressed to Glasgow's sister city Bethlehem, Lord Provost Sadie Docherty from the City Council wrote: "I offer heartfelt sympathy to the people of Gaza who are suffering during this most recent outbreak of violence.
"Glasgow is home to many friends of Palestine and this is a deeply distressing time for them. They represent a variety of ethnicities, political persuasions, faiths and none. However, they are united by a common desire to support the Palestinian people."
Fewer than 70 miles north west of Scotland's largest city, the city of Fife is embroiled in a similar controversy, as the Fife Council announced plans to raise the Palestinian flag over its HQ for one week.
David Ross, leader of Fife council said: "I hope that by flying this flag we can add strength to the public pressure for a lasting ceasefire which can bring about peace and stability in the area."
The chairman of the Tayside and Fife Jewish Community said it was concerned this move could "ferment" anti-Jewish sentiment in Scotland, according to The Courier.
These flag fights are not isolated incidents, controversies over the symbolic support of the Palestinian people have been cropping up across the country, most notably in the London borough of Tower Hamlets.
Lufur Rahman, Mayor of Tower Hamlets, was criticised last week for raising the flag over the borough's town hall. This week, a Roman Catholic nun removed a black Islamist flag from the entrance of an east London estate.

NEW DELHI Bharti Infratel Ltd, the telecommunications tower arm of top Indian mobile carrier Bharti Airtel (BRTI.NS), said it will allot shares worth $120 million to cornerstone investors as part of its up to $832 million initial public offering.
Investors including units of Morgan Stanley (MS.N) and Citigroup (C.N) have agreed to buy 28.3 million shares of Bharti Infratel at 230 rupees apiece, the company said in a regulatory filing on Monday.
The share sale opens for public subscription on Tuesday and will close on Friday.
Bharti Infratel has set a price band of between 210 rupees and 240 rupees a share for the issue of 188.9 million shares, or 10 percent of its equity, in what will be the country's biggest IPO in two years.
Bharti Infratel is selling about 146 million new shares in the IPO, while four private equity investors including arms of Singapore state investor Temasek TEM.UL and Goldman Sachs (GS.N) are selling the remainder.
Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BAC.N), JPMorgan (JPM.N), Barclays (BARC.L), Standard Chartered (STAN.L), Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE), HSBC (HSBA.L) and UBS UBSN.VX, and India's Kotak Mahindra and Enam, are Bharti Infratel's advisers for the IPO.

At some point in early childhood, children realize that letters are different from each other. They learn to recognize all letters, in both lower and upper cases. They learn the name of each letter and what sound accompanies each letter. This process is known as letter knowledge. This skill can be developed by every day reading and writing activities such as playing with alphabet letters on a refrigerator, reading and pointing out letters in alphabet books, naming letters on signs at the grocery store and even tracing letters on a dry erase board. This short video shows just how easy it is to fit this into any busy parent's schedule:
Try this fun idea! You can make your very own magnetic letter board. Just spray a cookie sheet a fun color and add magnetic letters!
The UAPL has a wonderful collection of alphabet books. Check these out:

Vocabulary is simply knowing the names of things. Words and their meanings are the building blocks of literacy development. The more words a child knows, the easier it will be for him or her to understand what they read. A parent can help their child build vocabulary by exploring different types of books, formats, and subjects in both fiction and non-fiction. As unfamiliar words are encountered, the parent and the child can sound them out together and talk about what each new word means. At home, parents can introduce new words into every day conversation. For example, instead of the usual, "Get in the car, we're going to the library!" you could say, "Let's get into our automobile (or vehicle)!"
Enjoy these books from our collection, chosen especially for their colorful vocabulary:
Senor Sasquatch is just trying to get somewhere on the bus and not get squished in the process. What happens when the bus driver keeps picking up more passengers? Will Senor Sasquatch be squashed and squished? This is a fun read aloud for all ages, but especially ages 1-5.

The DS motion card has not yet been released, but is available for preorder at the very reasonable price of $25. You need to already be familiar with homebrew and be able to run new apps on your DS, so if you haven't already done so, you might want to look into a handy tutorial to help you get started. Since this card won't be available until the first of the year, you've got some time! Until then, we'll just have to wait until someone gets their hands on one so we can see a full review of how well this is actually going to work. If it's even half as exciting as it sounds ... well, we just don't know if we could handle it.
Who wants to be the first to make a joke about Sony's tilt-o-matic PS3 controller now that the DS can perform in a similar fashion? We know someone is gonna do it ....

In a tight labor market, it pays to act quickly. In April 1997, a programmer sent her curriculum vitae to Statprobe, an $11-million drug-trial research company based in Ann Arbor, Mich. She explained that she was looking for ajob because her current employer, one of Statprobe's competitors, was closing its office in Lexington, Ky., at the end of June.By July 1, Statprobe had opened an office in Lexington &@151; and staffed it with 50 of the competitor's former employees.
In Statprobe's industry, competition for talent has been fierce. "If we can find the right people, we'll set up an office forthem," notes Statprobe president Lora Schwab. Schwab's 10-year-old company, which projects 1999 revenues of $23million, has six offices nationwide and has made the Inc. 500 list of the fastest-growing privately held U.S. companies.
Some entrepreneurs target competitors' employees even more aggressively. When Barry Brodersen, cofounder andvice president of Domino Equipment Co., in Clinton, Okla., hears about a particularly good service or constructionspecialist, he tries to get as much information about that person as he can and looks for opportunities to become acquainted.
Once, Brodersen literally pursued a service specialist he had heard about by tailgating him for 30 miles. When the twovehicles finally stopped, Brodersen introduced himself and said, "Why don't you come work for me?" Now the man is aservice manager for Brodersen, whose company installs and services petroleum equipment.

Fran Drescher 'Blessed To Have Met' Gay Ex-Husband
Although he broke the news to her after they divorced in 1999, Drescher has finally come clean about her ex's sexuality, admitting his confession brought them closer together. "Peter and I feel so blessed to have met each other and to still have a caring, loving relationship," Fran says. "Love is what we're all about."
In the interview, Drescher speaks candidly about her openly gay ex-husband and the traumatic burglary that changed everything.
The two first met while attending Hillcrest High School in Jamaica, Queens. The couple married in 1978 when Drescher was 21 -- shortly after she made her film debut in 1977's 'Saturday Night Fever.' In hindsight, Drescher admits young love had its pitfalls, but the two went through life-changing experiences that would later define their careers in Hollywood.
"Peter and I met when we were 15," Drescher tells In Touch. "We were just kids and didn't know who we truly were. We went through a lot together."
Jacobson and Drescher became an unstoppable team when he wrote, directed and produced her signature television series, 'The Nanny.'
But not everything was as simple as it seemed.
The couple had quite a few ups and downs -- including a traumatic experience in January 1985 when two armed robbers broke into their Los Angeles apartment. While one robber ransacked their home, the other sexually assaulted Drescher at gunpoint. Jacobson was also physically attacked, tied up and forced to witness the entire ordeal.
Although the man was sentenced to two life sentences, Drescher had a difficult time overcoming the horrifying ordeal. "At the time, it didn't seem to hurt the marriage," Fran told Larry King in 2002, but added, "Nothing was ever really the same again."
The couple separated in 1996 and were officially divorced in 1999. They did not have any children together.
That's when Jacobson finally told Drescher that he was gay. Although the two split, Drescher reveals they're still "the best of friends" and continue to collaborate. "We love each other dearly," she says. "We have even fixed each other up! I more successfully than him, by the way."
The couple even co-hosted a cocktail party in LA to benefit an organization that sought to block California's ban on same-sex marriage -- known as Prop 8. "I'm a gay icon," she explains. "But even if I weren't, I'm a political activist who believes in preserving the American dream, which is tolerance of diversity and the separation of church and state."

What makes anyone inm their right mind think STDs are exclusive to gay people? You either skipped the 70s and 80s or just closed yourself off from reality or something. WTF?
- Thursday 03 JuneBy Ron in NY
The word 'lifestyle' puts a lot of different 'lifestyleS' into one category.
For instance, if I referred to the 'heterosexual lifestyle' that would put you in the same category as that woman on Jerry Springer who sleeps with all her daughter's boyfriends. I think the word you're looking for is 'orientation'.
I think some closeted men marry women thinking it will help them deal better with society, or they just can't face the fact that they are gay, and that's wrong - because then you're messing up somebody else's life besides your own.
I knew a guy when I was in the army who had sex with half the guys in the barracks (I'm proud to say I wasn't one of them, thank God!), including a very open relationship he had with one young kid who slept in the bunk over him. Everybody knew what was going on and nobody seemed to care. When he got out of the service, he married an ex-nun and adopted kids just to make people think he was straight. Talk about denial! It's not just a river in Egypt! What kind of lifestyle do you call that? (That's rhetorical.)
- Thursday 03 JuneBy irateredhead
How do you know that he cheated on her while they were married? Just because he revealed to her that he was gay after they split up does not mean that WHILE THEY WERE TOGETHER he had sex with men. And even if he did, maybe he practiced safer sex and was never infected w/anything. What garbage to focus on! Instead of embracing the real message of the story, which is that she was able to maintain a friendship with this man even after their marriage ended and is able to continue being a grown up about it and support him AND speak kindly of him....rather than judge him like the rest of you. Ugh. No wonder I hate most of humanity.
- Thursday 03 JuneBy Chase
Just because hes gay does not mean he cheated on Fran during their marriage which could have resulted in the STDs you claim he could possibly have and given to her.
- Thursday 03 JuneBy gchad2003
Sorry, Steve, but JT's facts are correct. Check with the CDC if you don'e believe it. homosexual men are by far the highest incident rate and risk of STD's and growing all the time. There is no doubt that other groups are increasing as well, but by FAR, homosexual men are at the greatest risk. You get real.

Just because heis gay doesn't mean he cheated on her or had any diseases....can you really be that simple minded?
- Thursday 03 JuneBy D.
You mean the std's she could've gotten from the burglar who violently raped her? You think if a person is straight they don't carry diseases? You don't think having unprotected sex with those of the opposite sex, you can't catch anything? Maybe those of the opposite sex has to be weary of having sex with you.

Are you serious? Makes you wonder what? That someone might live a lie to be "acceptable" to world. That's the problem with homophobia.

You ask how people can marry not knowing the other is gay? At a time, or in a culture, where being gay is not acceptable, gay men and lesbians denied their own sexual orientation, even to themselves. In many cases this led to great unhappiness, particularly where chidren were involved. It is a better day when people can be who they are.

CEO Who Escaped Vietnam Warns That America is Going Communist
My son and I L-O-V-E Sriracha sauce, that yummy thick red spicy stuff you put on your Vietnamese Pho or if you're lucky like us you put it on everything: at your dinner table: with 2 bottles in the fridge. We have both been: anxious and irritated: watching the nearly 25 year, Huy Fong factory get beat up by local government in California and almost chased out because of the 'smell'. The Owner David Tran has compared his experience in CA with communism in Vietnam.
He has experienced communism. Possibly he is confusing the U.S. with California.
Via Red Alert Politics
The CEO of Huy Fong Foods – the company that makes the famed Sriracha sauce – sees a lot of similarities between the United States government and communist Vietnam.
David Tran escaped from the country in southeast Asia about 35 years ago, he told National Public Radio. Tran wanted to be free from the communist government's intrusions, NPR reported, but he apparently sees the U.S. government as almost as bad.
"Today, I feel almost the same," Tran told NPR. "Even now, we live in [the] USA, and my feeling – the government, not a big difference."
The businessman's view of the U.S. might be a bit tainted by his company's circumstances, however. Tran is currently embroiled in a battle with Irwindale, Calif., the town where his sole manufacturing facility is located. Residents of Irwindale have complained that the sauce's distinct smell has caused ailments such as nosebleeds and heartburn. The city sued the sauce company in October 2013 and a judge ruled that part of the factory needed to be shut down so procedures could be implemented in order to mitigate the smell.
Despite the rough relationship between Irwindale and Huy Fong Foods – as well as countless other towns and states that have courted the sauce maker – neither party wants to part ways.
City attorney Fred Galante told NPR that Irwindale would continue to try to resolve the problem "informally." And on Monday, Tran made a decision: he and his factory would stay put.
The caveat? Tran might open a second factory – outside of Southern California.
Long live Sriracha.
Mr. Tran is just like any other American afraid of losing the American dream to government tyrants. Government will find any way to siphon money out of business, it's sad really. Mr. Tran has decided to stay in CA as the city has realized how many people Tran employs and how closing would affect the local economy.
If you haven't tried it yet… try this stuff. You will replace ALL of your hotsauce with sriracha and remember with every knockout bite that you are tasting freedom and that even in California it still prevails.

Broadview Networks, a leading provider of cloud-based business communications services, was chosen by Quality Services for the Autism Community (QSAC) to upgrade its communications systems with OfficeSuite®, Broadview's award-winning, cloud-based business phone system. QSAC provides educational, habilitation and residential support, as well as recreational programs, to the residents of all five New York City boroughs.
With more than 1,000 staff members and 20 branches, QSAC was searching for a better way to unify communications among its locations. Chief Financial Officer Paul Naranjo and his team became frustrated trying to communicate between offices and maintain multiple systems. "It proved very difficult to have different equipment at each location, as none of the systems could speak to one other. Not having an integrated system was causing all kinds of problems," said Naranjo. "If one system went down, we had no way to access that office. We needed a solution that would provide total integration among all of our sites."
After careful consideration, Naranjo and his team chose OfficeSuite® to unite all of QSAC's locations—not only to save time and money, but also because they needed a future-proof system. OfficeSuite® provides free software upgrades and evolves with the technology, so the system never becomes outdated. "OfficeSuite has allowed me to re-allocate my time and focus on our operations, rather than exerting so much effort on vendor equipment," said Naranjo. "Before we implemented OfficeSuite, we were incurring extra costs for each new service agreement. Our organization is growing quickly, and now [with OfficeSuite] we can expand without having to buy additional equipment for new offices."
Multi-site organizations like QSAC often struggle to unify their locations at an affordable price. OfficeSuite® allows businesses to take advantage of cloud-based enterprise features without start-up costs, maintenance contracts or expensive equipment to purchase. Business owners and employees can redirect calls to other offices, mobile phones and home phones with the click of a button via Broadview's intuitive website. With OfficeSuite®, employees can use any phone at any office while maintaining their own extensions and personal preferences, including voicemail, which can be accessed anywhere at any time.
Perhaps most importantly, QSAC now has a true technology partner in Broadview Networks. "The whole team of Broadview experts became like my team—I feel so much more supported. I have been working for QSAC for 20 years, and none of our previous vendors ever gave us the level of support that we receive from Broadview," said Naranjo. "I regularly attend IT seminars where other non-profits come together to share their problems and successes. I have already recommended Broadview, and I would be happy to do it again."

A lot of us find men in suits incredibly sexy. He does look amazing in the trailer.
A lot of us find men in suits incredibly sexy. He does look amazing in the trailer.
Watch the trailer for The Man from U.N.C.L.E., his spy voice is sooooo sexy and he plays an Archer type American spy
Ofcourse this being set in the 60s when most men lived their lives in suits - many still do - I didn't expect anything else but at least they could have done shirtless scenes when Henry's looks are a big selling point. Instead you get the glamour girls in sexy outfits and out of it. Understandable for the target audience I guess but unlucky for us.
I didn't realize how handsome Cavill really is until I saw that picture of him standing next to Chris Evans and it occurred to me that Evans was the plainer one out of the pair.
he's gorgeous, no doubt. but in those pics above where he's wearing the blue teeshirt - his body just looks weird. maybe it's the terrible posture.
either way - i think he looks better with less bulk. like, Henry Cavill in The Immortals?! insane. impossibly beautiful and sexy. same wit The Tudors.
but then i'll completely contradict myself and say that in the Superman film, he was basically the hottest man i've ever seen. just like a walking, breathing God. and he certainly bulked up for that role. definitely the best looking Superman ever.
I think either middle-of-the-road or extremely buff work great for him, but overly lean (like in Immortals or that godawful musical Little Red Riding Hood with Lainie Kazan) dispels most of his hotness.
Finally saw Man of Steel first time, was lying dormant in my DVD collection for a bit. Well, I take back what I said about Tom Welling being my preferable Superman. I still like Tom, but Henry was better in the part, although at the same time it's hard to compare a movie with an ongoing TV-series. Henry was definitely buffer though.
That scene was wow. They definitely didn't exploit his body enough in the film. Gratuitous shirtless scenes everywhere would be cheesy, but like, loose-fitting shirts everywhere, barely any parts where his arms got flexed noticeably. Come on!
I'd still take first Evans then Hemsworth among the hot comic heroes around the same age and body-style, but Cavill is a close third. Not sure why, I just didn't quite fancy him as much as the other two.
What a handsome pair.
Henry's a great Superman it's just the film wasn't great. Looking at the Batman v Superman trailer I still have high hopes for that film and Henry's physicality in the role looks impressive again.
I cannot wait until Man from Uncle both he and Armie Hammer
"Flipping Dykes I though they were a myth like Weapons of Mass Destruction" Grace Adler.
Yeah I think the man from uncle will be more perv worthy than batman versus superman. Bvs looks very testoseroney and macho
That doesn't necessarily prevent it from being perv-worthy. Case in point: 300.
I'm really excited for the Immortals sequel. Idk if he can go back to that lean state which for me was his best look. Also what is his current beard for? His fans on FB aren't happy at all.
Stay tuned for more Henry love
- - - Updated - - -
Thank you goldenmoth!
Weird watermark that wasn't there before! :O
I bet he has such a great smelling ass.
Kryptonian Power fuck
Some Henry Cavill fakes..
That gif is awesome, lucky zac.
Not liking this pic not very flattering imo.
Well, the beard and facial expression aren't doing him any favors, but I'll forgive a lot in a picture of Cavill being kissed by a hot, (at least) half-naked guy.
I would hardly say he doesn't look good in the picture though. Just a shame he's not shirtless too
I reckon they might be laying it on a bit thick with the Christian allegories in the batman versus superman trailer.
They both look very hunky in that trailer
Henry Cavill is one of my favourite guys. However, I prefer how he looked in The Tudors (he needs to bring back the buzz cut) and The Cold Light of Day.
Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck
Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer
hard to choose
Armie Hammer. Ben Affleck does nothing for me. Good actor and director though.
I'll sell my soul to have even just one night with Henry, receding hairline included.
One of the most handsome men I've ever seen
Years ago I was at a park with my sister and it was right before he star really took off and he is the coolest nicest guy you could have ever wanted to meet.......

Big 12's Bowlsby Says Conference Execs Are "Concerned And Frustrated" With NCAA
Published May 31, 2013
CONNECT FOUR? In Austin, Kirk Bohls notes Dodds is "not promoting a mass movement away from the NCAA, just more flexibility." Meanwhile, Emmert "did acknowledge that 'perhaps' a fourth subdivision could emerge under the NCAA umbrella." Bohls writes it could be a "Super Division I," which would be "a huge undertaking." Emmert said, "I don't sense from the members nor have I heard from any of them that there's an interest in going out and starting another association. I do hear about trying to find greater flexibility for schools with larger budgets, the predominantly big five conferences, to make decisions on their own. I think a lot of people have an interest in doing that. I don't think it would send anyone over the wall" (AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN, 5/31).
EXPANSION OPTIONS: In Ft. Worth, Jimmy Burch reports Dodds "called for expansion of the four-team playoff field in future seasons to minimize the potential controversy around the first team omitted from the bracket." Dodds: "I'm kind of an eight-team person. I think there will be a lot of conversation about the fifth team that didn't get in or the 11-1 team that didn't get in because somebody's 12-0 that maybe wasn't quite as good as the 11-1 team. If you take eight, then you don't really have that." Meanwhile, Big 12 administrators "selected the American Airlines Center in Dallas as site of the 2015 women's basketball tournament, with the 2016 event headed to Oklahoma City." Bowlsby said that both events "will be played the week before the men's basketball tournament in Kansas City, Mo., in those seasons" (FT. WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM, 5/31).
PACKAGE DEAL? Dodds said that the Longhorn Network is "expected to exclusively air three Longhorns football games this fall." The AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN's Bohls notes the Aug. 31 season opener against New Mexico State is "expected to be one of them; LHN has aired Texas' past two openers." The Texas-Kansas game on Nov. 2 also is "expected to be carried on LHN" (AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN, 5/31). Meanwhile, in Dallas, Kate Hairopoulos wondered if LHN and the SEC Network could be a "package deal." The LHN's "distribution problems are well-reported." ESPN Senior VP/Programming Justin Connolly said, "These are two different networks. They stand alone. We talk about them alone. When we do big renewals with distributors -- I mean the ESPN portfolio -- both of these networks will be in that conversation. But we don't look at it as tying these networks together" (DALLAS MORNING NEWS, 5/31).

Right-wing extremists have committed far more acts of political violence since 1990 than American Muslims. That law enforcement across the country hasn't felt compelled to infiltrate and watch over conservative Christian communities in the hopes of disrupting violent right-wing extremism confirms what American Muslims know in their bones: to be different is to be suspect.

When I first practiced photography in 1988 I ended up using D76 with Tri-X film. My dad helped me develop my first film.
For some reason I haven't used D76 much over the years, but recently I was given a few bags of it, so I decided to try it. With Tri-X and TMax 400 it has been absolutely wonderful so far. I plan on continuing to use it, due to its broad availability, and for the lovely results. The negatives print like a dream.
I've even experimented a bit with Thornton's two-bath for dummies, where you use your normal developer, like Xtol or D76, and develop for about two thirds of your normal developing time. Then you follow with a three minute bath in a solution of two heaped tea spoons sodium metaborate in one liter of water. Really great for controlling highlights and obtaining easy to print negatives. You retain most of the original D76 quality, but you 'even out' the tonality of lower and higher contrast frames a little bit.
Anyway, film and developer choice is an important piece of the equation, but it isn't nearly as important as what you do with it...

"This was a girls weekend away and this condo was perfect! Loved having the shuttle to get to the village, very convenient! The pool is nice and close, great as long as you are okay with a lot of young families around. The condo has everything you could need, was very clean, and information was readily available through Trish! Thanks for all your help! Would definitely come back!"Guest: Suzie M. Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 8, 2014View listing
"The process of booking the condo unit was very easy. Michael answered all our questions prior to arrival. Check in was a breeze. We were met at the condo and taken to the unit and they showed us the essentials. The two are very polite and very informative. We were on the 23rd floor and loved the view from the patio. We stayed there for two wonderful weeks. The condo had security measures of needing a key fob to enter the building and through some doors, it made me feel very comfortable and appreciated the added security. I read a previous review that the air conditioning was not to their satisfaction. I can say the air conditioning was working just fine during our stay. There are different thermostats for the master bedroom and living areas. We were very comfortable. We did not use the 2nd bedroom so can not comment of the comfort of the 2 twin beds. The master bed was comfortable. I will say I enjoyed having nice fluffy towels in the condo. We use vrbo's frequently and some people skimp on cheap towels. This is not the case with this condo, they provide nice thick white towels. I appreciated having a stackable washer/dryer in the condo. We took advantage of having the grocery store in the condo on the ground floor. The items were reasonably priced. I liked going for walks in the area. There is a nice large green space less than a block away. Also the people in the condo were very pleasant. Also a plus that I haven't seen mentioned in reviews is the garage parking space allocated for the unit is very close to the entrance door and very convenient. A few days before we left we went to Nova Pastry and bakery. The custard tarts are so very good as was their pie. When we return to Mississauga we will definitely want to stay at this condo unit and go back to Nova Pastries for their custard tarts. Thank you to Michael and Yvonne. We truly enjoyed our stay."Guest: G D. Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: July 14, 2015View listing

Crusaders tactics backed by coach Dave Hewett
Relevant offers
Super Rugby
The Sharks disaster isn't expected to scare the Crusaders coaches into scrapping their conservative game plan for Saturday night's match against the Highlanders.
Heavy criticism has been showered on the Crusaders following last weekend's 30-25 loss against a 14-man Sharks side, who went down to 13 men in the second half, but assistant coach Dave Hewett remains unrepentant.
Even All Blacks coach Steve Hansen weighed in, stating the Crusaders blew a golden chance by refusing to reduce their kick-count against the depleted defence.
Hewett defended his team, noting the Crusaders were wary of Frans Steyn's prolific goal kicking ability.
"Our opinion was that was the best one [game plan] to go into the Sharks," Hewett said.
"One thing you don't want to do is give Francois Steyn opportunities to kick inside your 60m, essentially. And we did that through silly mistakes."
Had they executed their game plan correctly the Crusaders believed any errors in the Sharks half could have been negated by pressuring their scrums and lineouts.
Even after Jean Deysel was red carded for stomping Jordan Taufua in the 16th minute, the Crusaders saw no reason to rejig their attack.
"And we would have done that regardless of them being a man down or not," Hewett emphasised.
"I think the plan was right. It just wasn't executed to the level that we needed."
Hansen used the defeat as an example of why teams need to adapt on the field.
"Circumstances changed the way they should have played and they didn't adapt to that and that's something we [the All Blacks] as a team have to be really good at and there are good lessons there for all the sides."
The Crusaders decision to kick for goal instead of opting for a lineout, when the Sharks were down to 13 men, has also been questioned by frustrated fans.
Hewett supported captain Ryan Crotty's decision to instruct Colin Slade to kick for goal, which put the Crusaders in front, saying they were building pressure.
He confirmed the coaches send instructions to the players during games but said the players are entitled to ignore them.
"There are those messages going out but you have to realise the players on the field are the ones who have the feeling for the game," Hewett said.
"Coaches are slightly removed. Me and my role, being on the sideline - you have that hybrid position.
"We do give them information to say 'here is an option'.
"But they are the ones that make the final call and we will back what they say."
Which brings us to the Highlanders fixture in Dunedin.
The Crusaders will be wary of being seen as a one-trick pony but Hewett wasn't worried about other sides being able to work them out too easily.
Having recorded five consecutive wins before the Sharks loss suggests little will change.
"I think there is elements of everyone's game plan that could be viewed as predictable because that's how that team plays," Hewett noted.
Whether No 8 and captain Kieran Read, who hasn't played since April 19 because of concussion, will play the Highlanders will be decided within the next few days.
