Frozen bagel sections used to be one-horse towns, but that is changing. Indeed, some retailers are making more room in their sections for other products besides the category mainstay, Lender's original bagels. Lender's is still by far the market leader nationally, and up until a short while ago the typical set was Lender's and maybe a private-label item or two. But new competition is creeping into the category, retailers said. New items, including new brands and even Lender's Big 'N Crusty ...

Released: Jul 01st, 1996
Running Time: 69
Director: Jim Gunn
Company: Pleasure Productions
Cast: Eric Adams, Nicole Anna, Jay Michaels, Kianna, Roxy Ryder, Jessie James
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
This east coast team travels to the west coast (of Florida) and invades Jessie James' turf in Tampa. Twenty-year-old newcummer Nicole Ann's squeezable, natural, large breasts and slender body alone should propel her towards adult video stardom, but this doe-eyed lass has the added bonus of being very capable of doing a helluva scene including a teasing b.j., messy facial, and a kitchen sink strap-on girl/girl with james who takes a two-pronged "tuning fork" dildo up both holes at the same time. Also, Roxy Ryder maneuvers her massive mammalian protrusions into tit-fuck mode, and Kianna indulges in a much-too-short five-minute quickie on a staircase.

Elvis Costello unveils solo 2014 tour dates -- St. Paul in June
Elvis Costello at State Theatre in 2011
Photo by Erik Hess
The unparalleled genius of Elvis Costello will hit stages across North America this June. For the first time in 15 years, the versatile songwriter will be traveling light as he delivers 10 dates in the Midwest and surrounding cities.
Launching with an early-June stop at the O'Shaughnessy Auditorium on the St. Catherine University campus, Costello's tour is expected to provide a career-spanning set that probes the most popular and most obscure moments of more than 30 years in the rock 'n' roll limelight.
Costello's St. Paul date at O'Shaughnessy is Monday, June 9. Ticket sales begin on Friday, March 28.
Here's one from last year's Wise Up Ghost, featuring the Roots.
With all of his collaborations in recent years -- the Roots, Burt Bacharach, Allen Toussaint, etc. -- it'd be easy to forget that the man born Declan MacManus 59 years years ago can be mighty commanding on his own. During a Minneapolis date in the late '90s, he even challenged a heckler who wanted to hear some "angrier" cuts to a fistfight.
Here are the dates:
6/9 St. Paul, MN - OShaughnessy
6/10 Milwaukee, WI Riverside Theatre
6/11 Chicago, IL Copernicus Center (on-sale April 5th)
6/13 Ann Arbor, MI Michigan Theater
6/14 Toronto, ON Massey Hall
6/16 Cleveland, OH Palace
6/17 Louisville, KY Palace
6/19 Atlanta, GA Cobb Energy Centre
6/20 Knoxville, TN Tennessee Theatre
6/21 Nashville, TN Ryman Auditorium

I have been off of chewing/dipping for three months now, and it is just now becoming somewhat normal.
Some may wonder how I did it. It was with encouragement from the VA hospital. They recommended Bupropion which frequently is used for depression. I said that I would not take anything that might contaminate my medical records. I was assured that its alternate use was to curb smoking and that my records would be so noted. Actually is is stated "To curb tobacco usage." It has worked so far, and I am no longer taking it. I swear that it did nothing and that it was my shear will power that made me stop. Who knows, I never quit before after numerous attempts.

The Addicks have climbed up to ninth in the table, and are still in with a slim chance of making the play-offs with two games left, after a run of six matches without defeat.
They have also won their last three at The Valley, having previously won just four times in front of their own fans all season, yet Powell says there has been no radical change to their approach to home games.
"There's been no changes whatsoever," he said. "That's why I was saying when we were losing games it was very close. It was marginal.
"This league is marginal, trust me. Everyone can see it's a point here, it's a goal that goes in for you late on or early on there, that's how this league is.
"You see it week in, week out. We've been on the front foot a little bit more of late, but I felt the international break really helped us.
"It was a really tough time before then, but I think it gave us a bit of breathing time and thinking time. And the players have really responded.
"My staff and myself have looked at what we could do and the players have really pushed themselves at a time in the season where a lot of teams' energy levels drop.
"I won't allow that and they've been really worked hard and they are looking fit and strong. I suppose we wish there were 10 games to go, not two."

The Japanese government on Sunday commemorated the day the country recovered its sovereignty in 1952 after its defeat in World War II, amid opposition from Okinawa, which remained under U.S. control for another 20 years.
At the government-sponsored ceremony at the Parliamentary Museum in Tokyo, attended by Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko as well as around 390 lawmakers, prefectural governors and government officials, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said he wished to make the day one to renew people's resolve and hope for the future by keeping in mind the steps Japan has taken since 1952.
Abe, known for his nationalistic views, also said his generation has a responsibility "to make Japan stronger and create a country that people around the world can rely on."
Japan recovered its sovereignty on April 28, 1952, when the San Francisco Peace Treaty took effect, ending World War II and the seven-year occupation by the U.S.-led Allied Forces.
Okinawa opposed holding the ceremony as April 28 is referred to in the southernmost island prefecture as a "day of insult," when the prefecture was cut off from the mainland and forced to remain under U.S. control until its reversion to Japan in 1972.
Okinawa Gov. Hirokazu Nakaima skipped the ceremony in Tokyo in consideration of local opposition to the event. Deputy Gov. Kurayoshi Takara attended the event in place of Nakaima, joining governors from across the country.
Okinawa Prefecture assembly members from opposition political groups staged a rally in a park in the city of Ginowan in Okinawa at the same time the ceremony in Tokyo commenced, with around 10,000 people participating in the protest, according to the organizer.
Even after its reversion, Okinawa, despite accounting for less than 1 percent of the country's land area, continues to host more than 70 percent of U.S. military forces in Japan, prompting locals to urge the bases to be moved out of the prefecture.
The ceremony reflected Abe's desire to reform the country's Constitution to boost the country's defense capabilities, among other conservative agenda items.
Abe's ruling Liberal Democratic Party has pushed to revise the Constitution, saying it was drafted under the strong influence of the United States.
The event came as Japan's territorial sovereignty is being challenged, with Chinese vessels repeatedly intruding into Japanese waters near the Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea. The Japan-administered islets are also claimed by Beijing, which refers to them as Diaoyu.
Tokyo is also asserting its sovereignty over South Korean-controlled islands in the Sea of Japan and is pushing to settle a dispute over Russia-held islands off Hokkaido.
In his speech, Abe said he is seeking to make Japan a more "beautiful nation," a term he employed during his previous stint as prime minister from 2006 to 2007. The term drew criticism for having a nationalistic undertone.
His comments came after some of his Cabinet members and a large number of Japanese parliamentarians visited the war-linked Yasukuni Shrine, which honors the war dead along with Class-A war criminals from World War II, a week ago.
The visits angered China and South Korea, which suffered from Japan's wartime aggression and see the shrine as a symbol of the country's past militarism.
Abe, who did not visit the shrine but made an offering, has said he sees no problem with the visits and it is a "matter of course" to respect those who sacrificed their lives for the country.
At the ceremony, Abe called on younger generations to think deeply about the pain that Okinawa experienced until its reunification with the country.
Okinawa Deputy Gov. Takara told reporters after the ceremony, "It was the right decision that I attended (in place of the governor) because the people of Okinawa have complex feelings" about the day, but indicated that he understood that Abe, in his speech, was trying to "face up to the problems of Okinawa."
The government's decision to invite the emperor and empress to the ceremony also drew criticism from opposition parties that said the imperial couple were being used for political purposes. The emperor and empress did not make speeches.
Japanese Communist Party leader Kazuo Shii had called on the government to cancel the event, arguing that the attendance of the emperor at a ceremony held amid a lack of national consensus went against a key principle of the Constitution, which states that the emperor is the symbol of the nation.
Lawmakers, including Abe, and some other participants at the event gave a traditional shout of "Tenno Heika Banzai" (Long live the Emperor) as the emperor and empress left the ceremony.
The shout, often made during celebratory occasions and to praise the emperor, created confusion and drew criticism from other participants.
Natsuo Yamaguchi, leader of the New Komeito party, the junior coalition ally of Abe's Liberal Democratic Party, complained, "I doubt the action was based on the significance of the ceremony," adding the ceremony was intended to commemorate Japan's independence with its Constitution stipulating that "sovereignty resides with the people."
Writer Keiko Ochiai said, "It just shows a lack of imagination for those who are deeply hurt and feel sad because of the ceremony," referring to the people of Okinawa, while the Okinawa deputy governor said, "I didn't think it was necessary to do so on this occasion."
In its campaign platform for the general election last December, the conservative LDP pledged to hold a ceremony to mark the 60th anniversary of Japan's restoration of sovereignty and its return to the international community.
Prior to the event, Abe said a ceremony would help the public to "recognize" that Japan regained independence following its occupation by Allied forces after its surrender in World War II on Aug. 15, 1945.

Skip to comments.Large Shark Gives Maui Kayaker A Scare
Posted on 02/04/2006 4:50:44 AM PST by Tyche
click here to read article
Bruce just out for a nibble.
Yup... A Tiger nibbled a few fingers off of a tourist in the same area last December.
Right..... like THAT'S ever gonna happen.... a kayaker out-paddling a swimming great white? Get real.
Thank you! I am literally counting down the days until we leave! (108 left!!)
Not that I'm aware, just an example of another "nosy" shark. Oceanic whitetips are also investigatory, but prefer open ocean.
I think Bull sharks are found primarily in the Indian and Atlantic oceans, certainly GofM and Carribean.
How perfectly horrifying that must have been.
We really don't belong in the water, do we?
They're allowed if you don't get caught.
Air is the only practical way into HI. You have to declare them even if they're in your checked luggage. I suspect the airlines would rat you out on the other end. It isn't just carry that's illegal in the Peoples' Democratic Democracy of HI, but handgun ownership and possession as well. (I don't know about long guns.)
No, it was Cancun. Almost as nice as Maui...or so I've heard!
Alright, it's official now, the sharks have set up their own version of Animal Planet, entitled "People Planet". The shark following the kayaker is the shark world's equivalent of Steve Irwin, always running after and accosting unsuspecting People (animals in Irwin's case) and showing them off to the camera!
Okay, I've worked my giggles off now. This is probably the strangest shark article on FR in a while. A really big, predatory fish swimming along behind a man in a kayak, not doing anything other than watching him for all of fifteen minutes?
Mayhap it was just curious, probably had never seen anything like that before and wanted to find out exactly what it was. Good thing the other boat showed before the fishy stalker conducted a few physical tests.

What's your opinion?
If you look up abjure in a dictionary, you will find:
The two most likely antonyms are insist and affirm. But affirm's is closer:
The opposite of abjure is objure. Per the OED:
It is not particularly common.
I am not very familiar with the term "abjure". I may have seen it before, but I do not recall its specific meaning, nor the context in which I saw it.
Here is how I quickly processed this question, and came up with the same answer as Billy ONeal -- despite not being familiar with the word. Note that the actual meanings of the words are as Billy ONeal looked them up; the guesses below are just approximations. Approximations are usually good enough to do well on a test like the SAT or GRE:

Things were rough when I 1st got pregnant I honestly don't know if we'd be together if I hadn't gotten pregnant BUT it has been the best thing to ever happen to us & we are def better than ever so I guess mines the opposite effect.

"That's what she said"
After I had my 1st I hated DH. I've had several friends admit that they had similar feelings. For me it was the feeling that everything about my life had totally changed, while his stayed the same.
Littlemy3 thats exactly how I felt when lo was first born. DF still does everything...goes out with friends, plays video games, actually enjoys showers; While I'm the one who wakes up at night, does all the feedings, has to rush my showers cause apparently lo only wants me. It was frustrating. But I love my lo so I just had to take a step back and breath. Things have gotten better but we're still working on it. I can only hope that things will continue this way.

Its kind of weird... I liked his parents before, but now we have many issues and I see the faults in their parenting. He sees the amazing things about my parents parenting and almost has to stick up for his parents and it creates a lot of issues. Not that he didn't turn out great- I just want to raise my little one NOTHING like how his parents raised him.
Anyways, my point is that being a first time parent is complicated. Communication is key (so cliche!) but I totally get where your coming from. Some days I don't even want to hear his voice. But sometimes I love him more than ever. It's one of those "major life changes" that you have to give some time before making a decision. Unless of course there is abuse of some sort, then that's an automatic out in my eyes.
Good luck! I hope you two can work things out and find the love again!!

U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates says the release of thousands of classified documents by the WikiLeaks website is embarrassing but is not having a big impact.Gates told reporters in Washington Tuesday the leaked diplomatic cables have had only, in his words, "a fairly modest" impact on relations with other countries.Officials said Tuesday that the U.S. State Department has cut off the military's access to its database of diplomatic cables in an attempt to prevent future leaks.Officials suspect a former intelligence analyst with access to the military's classified network ((known as SIPRNet, or the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network)) was the source for the leaked documents.Secret U.S. diplomatic cables published by the WikiLeaks website Tuesday reveal that most of the 200 U.S. tactical nuclear weapons based in Europe are located in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and Turkey.The countries have long been suspected of housing the warheads, but the leaked cables appear to be confirmation of that information.A NATO spokeswoman told VOA Tuesday the leaking of any classified information, diplomatic or military, was "illegal, irresponsible and dangerous".Oana Lungescu declined further comment saying that as a matter of policy NATO did not comment on classified information.Other U.S. diplomatic cables leaked by WikiLeaks say Afghan President Hamid Karzai freed detainees without trial in Afghanistan because they had powerful connections.Afghanistan has not commented on Tuesday's disclosure. The United States has condemned the WikiLeaks release of more than a quarter-million sensitive U.S. diplomatic cables.The website has not identified the source of the documents. A U.S. Army intelligence analyst, Bradley Manning, was arrested earlier this year and is in military custody awaiting trial for allegedly leaking a 2007 video of a helicopter strike in Iraq and classified diplomatic cables to WikiLeaks.

United Steelworkers: "Of Course" Green Jobs Exist, "We Can See the Benefits"
With clean energy programs under political attack in the U.S. and Canada, support from traditional industry is more important than ever. Without the strong voice of labor groups, the call for a stable, long-term commitment to renewable energy is weakened.
One of the most vocal supporters of strong clean energy policies is the United Steelworkers, the largest industrial labor union in North America. As a founding member of the BlueGreen Alliance, USW, has been pushing progressive climate-stabilization and renewable energy policies, even while representing one of the most carbon-intensive industrial sectors.
The organization, which makes up more than 700,000 workers in the North American steel industry, has come out strong on various issues — supporting a comprehensive U.S. climate bill, backing a national renewable energy target and calling Canada's exploitation of tar sands an "embarrassment on climate change."
Speaking to Climate Progress at the Greenbuild Conference in Toronto, Ken Neumann, national director for USW Canada, calls climate change "our greatest threat" and reiterates the union's support for green jobs:
"We find that the green economy is very crucial to us…solar and wind, these are all manufacturing jobs. Many of our members are producing the steel in some of these facilities."
When asked about whether green jobs exist, Neumann replies: "Yes, of course they do…. We see the benefits."
With numerous solar and wind manufacturing facilities being built in Ontario due to the province's domestic content requirement, the sector has seen a substantial increase in activity. But here's the problem: Neumann admits that it's difficult to track the exact number of jobs created in the sector due to renewable energy.
It's still early in Ontario's feed-in tariff program, so no new steel facilities have been constructed to service demand. Existing steel mills are making products to serve the equipment and construction needs of companies setting up shop in the province, but Neumann says it's tough to pinpoint exactly how many jobs have been saved or created so far.
"Our members are creating products for these facilities. But I think it's difficult to say exactly what is a green job and what is not. But there's going to become a point when they are not going to be 'green' jobs. We have to keep focused on the environment and on the big picture. That's what we intend to do because we know they are a natural part of building this industry."
Yet again, we run into the same problem when counting green jobs. While some of these positions are obvious and trackable, many more are diffuse and disguised.
We know they exist and are seeing explosive growth. That's why leaders in the steel industry are so interested in them. It's just not always easy to separate a traditional job from a green job. And that's why the "debate" over these jobs is so heated.
2 Responses to United Steelworkers: "Of Course" Green Jobs Exist, "We Can See the Benefits"
People in the steel industry really have a lot of integrity, and that goes for both workers and management. The Steelworkers Union was an early adapter to all kinds of environmental issues, including climate change.
Unlike the timber and oil industries, the steel people don't do something and then try to bullshit about it. Instead, steel companies publish their EAP data for each individual mill, and don't care if you like it or not. It's compliance and improved efficiencies (which save energy) that they want.
Ken, thank you for your work and pointing out the job creation support with the united Steel Workers! We are promoting vacancies in a certified LEED building. It is our goal to provide more jobs through Leed certification and construction office space brampton
We need more individuals like you Ken!

I was surprised at the quality of the 3D conversion, given that it used the automated JVC Fox workstation that was used for Jumper 3D and I, Robot 3D. The process costs about a third of what a typical catalog 3D conversion costs and can be done with about 3 people in 3 months. In contrast, Titanic took hundreds of people over a year to convert.
The slow rate of adoption of 3D has been attributed, in part, to the lack of available content. Fox Home Entertainment with JVC developed a business model using automated equipment that allowed the 3D conversion of catalog movies profitably.
I was doubtful that they would be successful in this after watching 3D clips of I, Robot shortly after it was released. I changed my mind after purchasing and watching Predator 3D.
The only caveat is that the extras are provided via a Disk two DVD. (Disk one is the 3D/2D disk which has no extras). It would have been better to include the Ultimate Hunter Edition Blu-ray as Disk two as they did for the European release, since it has several more extras, some of them in High Definition. (END EDIT)
So, you have recently upgraded your home theater for blu-ray and want to replace your old Predator DVD. Should you buy the 2008 release or the 2010 (UHE) release? Perhaps I can help you decide.
When the 2008 edition was released, blu-ray disks were purchased primarily by film purists who believed nothing in the original film should be altered. Today, blu-ray is mainstream and the film purists represent only 4% of the market . Fox, in 2010 was intent on providing a release, Ultimate Hunter Edition, that catered to the tastes of the majority of consumers.Read more ›
Don't believe all the whiners, Predator: The Ultimate Hunter Edition is the best this film has ever looked, and probably ever will look. Some people complained about too much Digital Noise Reduction. They said that it doesn't look like its supposed to anymore...don't listen to them. I almost didn't buy this disc because of all the complaining people were doing, but I'm glad I did.
Yes, there are maybe 3 shots where Carl Weathers' face looks a little too smooth in the beginning of the film, but that comprises about 10 seconds of the film. The rest of it looks great. The film still has film grain, it just isn't as offensive as it was in the original release. Filmmakers on a budget and with location constraints chose a film stock that didn't need a lot of light, that meant super grainy film. They fixed that imperfection (which wasn't a design choice).
Bottom line, if you are a fan of this film BUY The Ultimate Hunter Edition, not the 2008 Blu Ray release.
P.S. Amazon, do you think you can stop cross contaminating your reviews. This movie's reviews are confusing because it includes reviews for every version of the film. Star Wars is even worse. Please fix this.
Predator on Blu-Ray features a higher definition transfer (though on a single layer disc), but carries over none of the special features from the 2-disc DVD. How hard would this have been? Make it a dual layer Blu-Ray, and just throw them all on there in standard definition. That would have guaranteed and instant buy for me. But this habit of dumping the film bare-bones onto Blu-Ray is reminiscent of the early days of DVD, and I thought we were past that. Other studios are doing a fine job of including all the special features, so why is Fox being dumb? And why are they slapping a $40 MSRP on a bare-bones release?
You would have had me with a good release, Fox. I would gladly plonk down the cash for a true upgrade from my DVD version. But you blew it, and you're not getting my money.
The cast of this film was perfect. It was a real ensemble piece with Schwarzenegger in the lead. In fact, I think Arnold was helped tremendously by the additional cast. He didn't have to carry the whole movie on his shoulders and they helped elevate the level of acting and characterization. You had Carl Weathers as the CIA agent. He seems more than a physical match for Schwarzenegger and he definitely acts better. You also had Bill Duke as Sgt. 'Mac' Eliot. His quiet, intense gaze said more than anything else he did. You had Jesse Ventura playing the tough, tobacco chewing, gun toting guy who ain't got time to bleed". (Did Ventura inspire Arnold to be a governor, too?) You had American Indian Sonny Landham as Billy, the guy with the haunting laugh. Then there was Richard Chaves as Poncho Ramirez who was also a favorite of mine.
The effects of Predator were also remarkable. Not only was the camouflage effect unique but the alien makeup itself was stunning. The alien was definitely a guy in a rubber mask, but the helmet, dreadlocks, and mandibles made him one of the more amazing looking aliens in movie history. Everything about the Predator was just cool. The character was a real high point in Stan Winston's career.
The music by Alan Silvestri was also unique and a perfect blend of military march and horror suspense to give the movie the right feel.Read more ›

"Brooklyn can't be Beat" Top 5 Page for this destination Brooklyn by TempNomad
Brooklyn Travel Guide: 359 reviews and 760 photos
I have only lived in Brooklyn for about ten years, and while I can't claim to be a true Brooklynite, I love this place. I'm getting to know a little bit more of this borough every day and can't wait to keep exploring.
Anyone want to offer me a job to troll around the borough all day? I'll do a good job, I promise!
I have many, many restaurant tips...to keep them a little organized, I've tried to put the neighborhood in the title. Honestly, some of the best sushi is in Bensonhurst! (Tenzan) The most delicious pizza is here too (Europa and Il Coloseo), and we have some great brunch and Caribbean and French food as well. I mean everything! (Can you tell I love my food?)
Some of my best photos are in the travelogues because I know a lot of people have slower connections and can't keep changing pages to see all the pages of tips. Take a look!
Feel free to email me with any questions you have about Brooklyn. I may not have the answer, but I can probably guide you to the proper information.
- Pros:Every possible kind of person, language, food, and attitude you could ever imagine!
- Cons:Difficult to navigate and taxis often refuse to take you to anywhere other than the heights from Manhattan
- In a nutshell:We've got the whole world in our borough

A curious thing happened when Georgia surrendered Louisiana-Lafayette's one and only touchdown Saturday.
After Ladarius Green got well behind the closest defender and scored on a 60-yard pass that cut the Bulldogs' lead to 24-7, some fans sprinkled throughout the home stands actually cheered - surely representing the first time in Sanford Stadium history that Georgia's fans applauded a busted coverage by the home team.
To be fair, they weren't cheering the busted coverage, per se. They were cheering new defensive coordinator Todd Grantham's response to the defensive breakdown once the players returned to the bench.
His response was more like a low-level meltdown, complete with towel waving, screaming, pointing and wild punches thrown toward no particular target.
His message? Such mistakes - the kind of letdowns that typified Georgia's defensive effort for the last several seasons - are absolutely unacceptable and will not be tolerated by the new sheriff in town.
"When he brought his scheme in, we knew that was a part of him," Georgia cornerback Brandon Boykin said after the Bulldogs' 55-7 win. "You'd better make your plays or you're gonna get chewed out. You're not gonna take any plays off."
Grantham's heated reaction to such mistakes was obviously a new thing for the fans to witness, but it's already old hat to the players.
In fact, Grantham's rants "might be worse" when such breakdowns occur in practice, Boykin said with a laugh.
When told of the fans' reaction to his sideline fit, Grantham explained that he fully understands their sentiment.
He now works in a program whose cornerstone has long been a nasty, ruthless defense, but that philosophy seemed to recede in recent years - and that's why Mark Richt eventually elected to fire former coordinator Willie Martinez and two other defensive assistants.
Fans expect Grantham to return Georgia's defense to the form that marked the Bulldogs' dominance in the first half of Richt's tenure, and those cheers show that they believe Grantham's brand of fire is exactly the ointment the Bulldogs needed.
"When I came here, I understood the passion of the fans here. I understand that. I respect that," Grantham said. "And we're working very hard to give them the things that they want, and we're gonna continue to work hard to get better and be a better defense down the road than we are right now."
► View a gallery of photos from yesterday's game.
His sideline rant was not about appeasing the fans, however. His intention was to send a message, and the player who received the harshest criticism - safety Bacarri Rambo, who accepted blame for the blown coverage - heard it loud and clear.
"That's what we needed. All that talking he was doing, that yelling, that didn't really get to me," Rambo said. "That just motivated me to make plays and make up for that play I gave up. That's part of coaching, what he was doing, and that's what we need on the defense."
No doubt, the Bulldogs' defense made plenty of plays.
Subtract the touchdown bomb and Georgia's defense allowed 5 yards of offense in the first half. The Bulldogs allowed a first down when they ran into Ragin' Cajuns punter Spencer Ortego on Lafayette's first possession, but they didn't surrender another first down until 1:31 was remaining in the third quarter.
They put pressure on the quarterback, making three sacks, and forced mistakes that resulted in three interceptions - the first time since a 2008 win at LSU that Georgia made three interceptions in a single game.
In short, they did all the things that Martinez's defenses seemed incapable of doing in the last two seasons.
Before we get carried away with what transpired Saturday, let's remember that the Ragin' Cajuns ranked 93rd in scoring offense last year out of 120 teams in the Football Bowl Subdivision. Next weekend's visit to South Carolina will be a much more effective indicator of where Georgia stands in its defensive transformation.
But the Bulldogs' season-opening win was unquestionably an outstanding start to the new era on defense. Even when something went horribly wrong, Grantham turned it into a teaching opportunity and his players responded admirably.
The cheers during Grantham's rant - and the shutdown effort after it occurred - offer yet another reason to believe that the Bulldogs' new coordinator is the man who will help Georgia fans believe in their defense again.

Katie Holmes in Patchwork Jeans
I absolutely love this outfit on Katie Holmes! I think she looks really laid back, but still put together in this pair of patchwork jeans with a chambray shirt and heels, which really dresses up the look.
I think Katie always tends to take risks when it comes to different denim styles and trends. Luckily, I think this is one of her more successful attempts at dressing up a trend, a lot better than when she tried out overalls. Does anyone know who makes Katie's jeans?

Favorite Celeb Outfit: Katie Holmes
Katie Holmes has had quite an eventful year. She showed her first collection at fashion week and is starring in Dead Accounts on Broadway. Even with her busy schedule she was still able to up her denim game a bit more by wearing styles by Mother, J Brand, and Rag & Bone throughout the year.
Please vote for your favorite Katie outfit in the poll below. When we say favorite, we mean her whole head to toe outfit, not just the jeans she's wearing. If you hover your mouse over each gallery image, you can see the number assigned to cast your vote. You can also vote in the other celebrity polls here.
Katie Holmes in Rag & Bone The Skinny in Sheffield
Katie Holmes was pictured a couple of days ago arriving at her Broadway show 'Dead Accounts' in New York City again.
Katie chose to wear her Rag & Bone The Skinny jeans in Sheffield again, but this time with a white cable knit sweater and her beige suede boots. I really love this Sheffield wash after seeing it in many different lights, I think it looks beautiful. A lot of the time a wash will only look pretty in a certain light and not others, but these look good everywhere in my opinion. Buy these jeans online at Revolve Clothing.

Katie Holmes in Rag & Bone The Skinny in Sheffield
Katie Holmes was seen arriving at the Music Box Theatre for her 'Dead Accounts' Broadway show in New York City last week.
Katie wore her Rag & Bone The Skinny jeans in Sheffield with some black boots and a grey poncho. I have to say that I really like Katie's style when she's rocking Rag & Bone. The jeans seem to pull all of her outfits together so nicely! You can buy these jeans online at Revolve Clothing for $231.

The House of Delegates (HoD) is a deliberative assembly comprised of delegates elected or appointed from each of the 52 Component State Associations (CSA) and the AHIMA Board of Directors. Delegates serve as a grassroots member forum of AHIMA governing the health information management (HIM) profession. The HoD is chaired by the Speaker of the House, an AHIMA official elected by delegates.
Delegates work virtually year-round, operating on a July 1-June 30 term advocating for the profession, the members, and the Association. These leaders help keep our profession strong and moving forward by contributing or recommending action on issues affecting the industry.
Founded in 1946, the House of Delegates is a long-standing, decision-making body of our professional association. Delegates have a critical role in guiding and governing the health information management (HIM) profession.
In 2012, the HoD implemented a new, forward-thinking approach to the operations and configuration of the House of Delegates. Consisting of the House Leadership, Envisioning Collaborative and ad hoc Task Forces, the HoD allows for agility and diverse input for strategic planning to better address and meet the needs of our members, profession, and industry.
We gather input from the Envisioning Collaborative consisting of one selected delegate per state to help inform the Board in setting strategy. We have a House Leadership team consisting of one CSA delegate per state. Along with subject matter experts from other relevant areas, delegates not on the House Leadership Team or Envisioning Collaborative can join Task Forces. As issues come through the House Leadership pipeline and are vetted, delegates will be notified and assembled to address them. The HoD offers a variety of activities for participation and cross-collaboration, such as vetting practice briefs for Practice Councils and joining workgroups with other volunteer groups.
This approach will position the House of Delegates to move more agilely to address the issues facing our profession today, tomorrow, and in the future and will allow the HoD to make the best use of time and effort for our delegates to govern the profession.
House Leadership will serve as a steering committee consisting of 52 CSA delegates. They ensure effective House of Delegates operations through alignment with strategy. House leadership provides oversight and direction to designated task forces and operations.
House Leadership members will identify best practices, document performance, and foster innovation and agility in decision making.
The Envisioning Collaborative serves as a "think tank" comprised of delegates, subject matter experts, and industry leaders bringing forward emerging issues and trends that can impact the HIM profession.
The Collaborative charges are to conduct environmental scanning year-round by looking at our environment (internally and externally), gathering the data, consolidating and discussing the information, and validating the results. a robust exchange of perspectives, innovation, and ideas that will contribute to the strategic planning process and enable sound decision-making.
Task forces create a member focused objective. Task force members can be comprised of delegates, subject matter experts, and industry leaders.
Throughout the year, a call to serve will be sent to delegates on a variety of topics. Delegates may be reached personally depending on their areas of expertise. Ad hoc task forces will allow for more flexibility and agility in the completion of projects.
