I made this as a main dish for myself for dinner. I LOVE so many of the ingredients - sun-dried tomatoes, cannellini beans and asparagus - that it just sounded like a sure thing and I wasn't disappointed. I can't wait to try it again today after the flavors have married. I think this is a great vegetarian dish, lunch OR side dish and it goes together easily. I will definitely make this again....maybe add a can of tuna in the summer!
White Bean-and-Asparagus Salad

Outstanding combination of flavors! I used an entire pound of asparagus and chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes. Made the rest as directed and served with Rocky Mountain Salmon and Arugula-Walnut Pesto Farfalle. So light and delicious!

Nice flavors, made an excellent light summer supper. I used an entire lb of asparagus and left out the capers, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Will definitely make again!

I love this salad - I've been making it for so long the magazine page is now tatty. I usually replace the asparagus with green beans (unless asparagus is in season and cheap). I don't include the brown sugar. I usually make a batch on the weekend - everything but the salad greens and parmesan and then add the salad greens and parmesan to a portion each day for the next few days and take it work for lunch.

I added a can of red kidney beans and doubled all the other ingredients. It is so good - and so easy - making it a double winner.

I adapted a few things in this recipe, but my husband and I both loved it. I roasted the asparagus, which makes a huge difference in the taste. I used fresh tomatoes and sweet onions, and I omitted the water from the dressing. I used artificial sweetner (about 1/3 of the amount of sugar called for in the recipe). Lastly, I didn't have mixed salad greens, so I used baby arugula, which was perfect! This awesome recipe will become a regular in my house, just for us as well as for entertaining.

Fantastic recipe!

The Uhaul truck Had lots of wind noise up by the drivers window and the Windshield wipers need to be replaced
The van was clean and in excellent condition. Great A/C
Great customer service!
It is a pain to judge where to bring fuel level back at, would be great if left on full, so you know to return on full instead of playing with gas pumps for 15 minutes.
Dropped off while they where closed. Drop box was in plain site. No problem what so ever. Nice large parking lot.
The steering was way too loose. My arms hurt so bad from fighting the steering wheel in order to keep it in my lane. Also you need side steps so older people don't have so much trouble getting in and out of cab. I fell twice trying to get out when I stopped.
The bearings in the wheel on the dolly seemed to be gone. It made sqwealing noise.
I returned the truck on time, but the original place I picked it up fucked up the order. Along with the website also fucking up the order. The truck barely made it there. Order times were wrong, but since the website fucked it up and no one said anything at either location, then it's my fault. Complete bullshit that I got charged an extra day since I turned the truck in on time.

WFNY Radio Ignores DJ's Use of Anti-Gay Slurs
CBS-owned WFNY 92.3 Free FM radio shock jocks "JV" (Jeff Vandergrift) and "Elvis" (Dan Lay) invited a local unsigned band called A Brief Smile onto their show, The Doghouse. During the interview, the hosts directed numerous vulgar anti-gay slurs at the band's bassist.
The interview's beginning was rocky, with the bassist criticizing Free FM and The Doghouse program. The angry hosts then referred to the musician as "Fag Number 1" and asked, "How many badges of honor do you have in your colon?" The interview revealed that the bassist self-identified as bisexual, and he was eventually kicked out of the studio while being told that his "sexuality makes him a bitch." The hosts also rated the band's song poorly, calling it a "little faggy."
"The comments by 'JV' and 'Elvis' are vulgar and defamatory, plain and simple," said Rashad Robinson, GLAAD's Senior Director of Media Programs. "CBS Radio and WFNY 92.3 Free FM have a responsibility to the community to ensure that hateful anti-gay slurs are not part of their standards and practices."
GLAAD called WFNY 92.3 Free FM Program Director, John Mainelli several times before reaching him. A receptionist even hung up on a GLAAD senior staff member and told him to "stop calling." Eventually, Mainelli did call back, was unapologetic about the anti-gay tirade on The Doghouse, and even defended the defamatory radio segment as "comedy."

2005 Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 18 reviews
For 2005, the Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 got a new Power Wagon trim with new electric locking front and rear wheel differentials, which will further reduce the wear and tear on your wheels when you corner. Power sunroof and Sirius radio now come as options. Finally, the Ram 2500 stands a couple inches taller and gets some new 33 inch off-road tires.
This powerful domestic pickup gives you plenty to choose from with its 20 trims. All 20 have an impressive standard 5.7 L, 345 hp V8 powertrain with available 4 and 5 speed automatic or 6 speed manual transmission. In addition, all trims come in either 2 door, 3 seat or 4 door, 6 seat configurations. Max towing capacity generally ranges from 11000 to just over 13000 lbs.
Overall, drivers like the Dodge Ram 2500's towing, engine power, smooth ride, and comfortable interior. On the other hand, the rear seat could use a little extra room and the Ram 2500 doesn't have enough variety for some when it comes to seating configurations. In any event, the 2005 Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 does pretty much everything you'd expect from an upper echelon domestic pickup truck.

Boat rescue today
We received a call this morning at 7am. A friend of ours said our boat had broken loose and had drifted over to Bird Island (a shoal you barely see at high tide) and and was listing on her port side, if we hurried we could get there before high tide and float her off.
Thankfully the night before we were at the pub until some ungodly hour and well prepare for an emergency.
We got coffee and made it to the boat in a hour by driving a little over the speed limit. There she was grounded and listing to port. On our way out I commented on the spotted bottom paint and said to the Captain "you said no one was gonna see the bottom"
When we got on board we noted that the swivel shackle had broken from the mooring chain. We than threw two anchors out over the starboard side. One forward and the other off the stern, The wind was blowing and holding us tight to the rocks.
The anchors bit in and held. We than tied a fender to the ancor lines. We hooked the stern line to the winch and started slowly cranking. We also had a line to the tender that has a 15 horse Honda on it. That took a bit but we were ready and high tide was at 10:30. by 10 the boat was back to even but we were still grounded. I got in the tender got the line taught and gave her a yank and the Captain put her in reverse and gave her some and good scrape we are free. Back to the boat and dropped the lines over (hence the fenders that we went backfor later).
What a morning we picked up a local mooring and fixed ours. Tomorrow we'll be back on our hook. No damage to the hull or rudder. We'll dive to look at the keel later. Not to make this sound easy because its not.there we a couple of scary moments. We pulled this off due to great communication and trust. We probably will never use a swiveled shakle again.
a swivel is the weakest part of the link--i never use them on mine either---i dislike breakaways.....goood luck....

Futzing around with some new synths and an extreme amount of insomnia and boredom, came this song/loop. Too much 70's cop show drama/comedies have I watched over the years.
And hows this for a treat....ITS ALL DONE ON KEYBOARD!! and processed and compiled on my computer!! Huzzah! This is truly a rarity for me, usually I use my guitar, bass, drums and what have you. Not tonight, Nooooo, tonight I did it the easy way (riiiight).
Enough of my yammering on.

This reminds me of some old (and most of them, very bad) movies. My first impression was Police Academy. :P
I'm really impressed by the instrument mix, it's perfected. Keep it that way.
Thanks bro, Glad to see people with taste, or not so judgmental!!
Thanks Again!!

What News Sites People are Reading, by State
Jon Bruner of Forbes, in collaboration with Hilary Mason and Anna Smith of Bitly, maps the most popular news source by state.
Bitly's dataset, wrangled by data scientists Hilary Mason and Anna Smith, consists of every click on every Bitly link on the Web. Bitly makes its data available publicly—just add '+' to the end of any Bitly link to see how many clicks it's gotten. For Bitly's collaboration with Forbes, Smith and Mason looked for news sources and individual articles that were unusually popular in certain states compared to national averages. The interactive map starts by showing which news source dominates in each state by this measure: the Washington Post in Virginia and Maryland, the Chicago Tribune in Illinois, and so on.
You can also select news sources to their click distributions across the country.
I like how The Onion leads in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and New Mexico, although I'd be interested to know what other news sources the states read. A color scale might be informative, too.
14 Comments
Nitpick: I don't think it's "most popular news sources by state"; it's just the source that is read more often in that state than it is by the nation on average. E.g. it doesn't say people in Wisconsin are more likely to get news from The Onion than from USA Today; it just says people from Wisconsin are more likely to get news from the Onion than people from Florida are.
Sean, I wouldn't call that a "nitpick" at all. This kind of thing happens all the time – headlines subtly twist the underlying analysis. Much more data could be conveyed by this graphic, too. Upon seeing the color for my state (I live in DC, but VA is close enough) I immediately wonder "What's the second 'most popular' news source?" Maybe separate heat maps for each source (which would be all the better if the data goes deeper than state-level)? It would be a lot of separate maps to take in, but patterns would quickly and clearly surface.
Interesting map. How exactly was this data collected? I think I speak for a lot of readers when I say that I would love the chance to do something like this, but I don't really know how to scrape sites for such data. Any suggestions, resources?
Aside: working my way through Visualize This and loving every page!
The Forbes intro calls this "the most influential media outlets" but also admits this is collected by web-clicks and much later only by a specific type of links (if you don't know Bitly then you may erroneously assume they have a representative sample of all clicks). Not only is Sean correct that they twist the definition of what was actually collected, the underlying data is so incomplete that it does not rise to a basic level of delivering on the title's promise. Why not just call it Influential Media outlets among Social Media users?
Wow! I found a lot of these quite surprising. I'd like to do some fact checking on this.
The different shades of blue and purple are really hard to tell apart!
I agree with Chris — the claim that Bitly data alone could tell anyone "Who's Reading What and Where" (as the Forbes headline claims) is very questionable. There's no way Huffington Post is the most popular news source in Louisiana or that The Onion is in Minnesota. This is interesting data, but it's interesting data about Bitly users and should be reported as such.
The Onion is not a news source, it's satire presented in a newspaper-like fashion, much like Saturday Night Live's "Weekend Update". I assume Jon Bruner was unaware of this when he created the map. Because of it's inclusion, we are left wondering what the real dominant news source is in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and New Mexico.
I assume one reason the Onion is so popular in Wisconsin/MN is that it was originally published in Madison.
I can't tell the Forbes color from the Onion color. Does anyone read Forbes?
HAHAHAHA!! I love how he casually threw "The Onion" into the mix. Too funny.

Ellen Degeneres' Tribute To Heath Ledger
On today's episode, the talk show host remembers her friend.
Thank you Heath for your time with us. I am grateful that The Man up above gave Heath to us, even though it was for a short time. Peace my friend. My deepest respects for the Ledger family and daughter, Matilda.
So sad, my prayers are with the family and his little girl. R.I.P. Heath.
My thoughts and prayers are with Matilda, Michelle and the Ledger family. Heath Ledger will be missed but not forgotten.
Thank you Ellen, for posting that humorous and sweet look at Heath. It's nice to see his lighter side remembered, and not just the brooding bloke. R.I.P. Heath…
Thank you for that piece from your show last year, Ellen. It made me laugh and then I found myself tearing up. It is nice that Matilda will be able to see such a funny side of her father. It is a shame to lose someone so young and full of life. All of my prayers to Michelle, Matilda, and the entire Ledger family for such a tragic loss.
Ellen thanks,
just like you there are so many others
that are in some way giving there respect to Heath. Michelle, Matilda, my respect to you both, He was a great Man and he will be miss tremendously.
See u @ the Batman movie Heath.
form a huge fan
of you and your michelle.
I was heartbroken to hear this sad news yesterday. I just had two deaths in my family back-to-back and came across this quote at that time and it has helped me heal:
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, Love leaves lives a memory no one can steal: Tombstone in Ireland.
My heart goes out to the family, especially Michelle and Matilda.
Heath - RIP, my friend, you will always be remembered.
Thank you Heath for the talent you were blessed with and so unselfishly shared with us all. We will never forget you and we are filled with sorrow that you were taken from this world so young. May you rest in the hands of God and as you said in an interview "I'm not afraid of death because I know I'll live on in my daughter." God Bless you sweet little Matilda, Michelle…. the love of his life, and the Ledger family.
Heath you will be missed but never forgotten.
The video clip to that audio of Ellen and Heath in the bob sled is posted on YouTube. It is so sweet. Heath, rest in peace, we love you and will miss you. You will always have a special place in our hearts. We will never forget you. It was like time stood still when you departed us. Rest in Eternal Peace, Dear Heath. It has been 1 week and I still cry thinking of your passing. God Bless you, Heath. You will never be forgotten. Love, Another Heath Ledger Fan
It's horrible for something so great to come to a tragic end. He was my favorite actor and will be truly missed. My best to Michelle and Matilda. RIP Heath!
My heart and prayers go out to Matilda and to his family. It is always hard to loose someone so close but time will heal the pain and you have so many memeories with him that you can cherish forever. I want to thank the Ledger family for bringing Heath into our lives even if it was for a short time. His fans got to see the talent that not alot of actors can bring. Just always remember that he will never be forgotten in our hearts. ~You're number 1 fan~ R.I.P. sweet boy
The Ellen Video clip was amazing of Heath it helps console me in away; But then I tear up and want more!! It's unbelieveable that he is gone…I have alot of his movies; I started watching them all over AGAIN. I'm a devoted fan~I will never forget you RIP Heath. The greatest respect to the Ledger family and Michelle and Matilda Rose.
I'm in my fifties and I have never blogged before, but the unprecedented and inexplicable sorrow I feel since learning of Heath's death compels me to seek others who find themselves with a similar ache. I was not a die-hard fan, but was always pleasantly surprised when he would show up in a film and then blow me away. It's been a month since Heath's passing and I still feel an awful ache in my chest when I see a picture of him. I still feel a strong and persistent urge to turn the clock back 5 minutes on the day when I heard about his death on the news. If we could just go back a few minutes, before receiving that awful, heartwrenching news, we could somehow save him and still have him here for his daughter and family. I can only surmise that Heath had way more charisma than I ever imagined, and I guess I took him for granted, as a movie fan, thinking he would always be there. What other explanation can there be for hurting so much, yet never having met him? So many unanswered questions…I feel like I dropped into a parallel universe. It's just so strange and I think I will never fully understand the effect this has had on me. I hardly dare share my sorrow with my social circle or family lest they each laugh me out of the room. I believe in a transitional afterlife so I know he is in peace and light, traveling toward the next plane. My heart aches for all who survive him.
It's been a month since he left us. I had been hearing about this tribute to Heath by Ellen and I have to say I cried and I laughed and I loved. I'm in my 50's as is another poster here. I have two sons and my eldest looks so much like Heath. It was when I saw Heath in the Patriot that I sat up in the theatre and thought…he looks like my son! I've followed him closely since. And I love everything he's done.
I saw him walking on the sidewalk in Brooklyn a year ago..he had a huge grin..and looked at me and smiled even bigger and nodded his head. I smiled back. He lived close to me and I didn't want to bother him..thinking I'd see him around for awhile anyway. I missed that opportunity. He will always be loved and missed by so many people. My heart goes out to his family and friends, Michelle and his beautiful daughter Matilda.

You may have noticed that here at Birchbox, we have a deep, abiding love for all things nails. Which is why nail artist extraordinaire Taryn Multack, a.k.a Miss Ladyfinger, is a great fit as this week's guest blogger. Multack, who's spent time working at fashion staples like Oscar de la Renta and W Magazine, uses trends and looks straight from the runway to create gorgeous, imaginative designs for her digits. The most impressive part? She does all of her art while keeping a day job in the fashion world. This week, she teaches us how to make our nails just as fabulous as hers.
Let me just first say that I am not a nail technician. I repeat: not a nail technician. I'm simply a fashion industry gal with a steady hand, but we all need to start somewhere, right? Miss Ladyfinger started out as the typical nail blog, swatching colors as I purchased them. (Side note: It's embarrassing, but I admit to spending more money on polish than on clothes.) It wasn't until I bought my first nail art pen that things got interesting. Like any art form, a blank canvas can be intimidating. Luckily, my day job requires that I immerse myself in fashion runway images to gain inspiration, so that's exactly what I did. I'm here to tell — and show — you how you can, too.
Click through to get these Chanel-inspired nails in five easy steps — this is a tutorial created for nail art beginners!
Let's start with beginner runway-inspired nail art. For this post I chose a simple Chanel look, because really, what girl doesn't love Chanel? All you'll need is a white polish and a black nail art pen. For this look I used Cotton by American Apparel and Sally Hansen's black nail art pen, available at any drug/specialty store.
1. Prep your nail with base coat
2. Apply white polish to the whole nail
3. Using your nail art pen, apply a diagonal line starting from the halfway point of your nail bed to the halfway point of your nail tip.
4. Next, draw a smaller line parallel to the first one.
5. Complete the square by drawing lines down towards your cuticle.
6. Top it off with Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat, and voilà! Your very own set of sassy Chanel nails.
For more neutral colored polishes that work as a base for all your nail art needs, try these taupe shades from Zoya.

Marine safety, science information now online in Spanish
COLLEGE STATION, Texas — One of the state's best online resources for marine and coastal science information is now available in Spanish.
In conjunction with National Hispanic Heritage Month, the Texas Sea Grant College Program (TXSG) has launched a Spanish language version of its popular website "to be more inclusive and reach out to the Spanish-speaking population that we serve," said Dr. Pamela Plotkin, TXSG Director. National Hispanic Heritage Month runs from Sept. 15 through Oct. 15.
The Spanish language site can be found by going to TXSG's English language homepage — http://texasseagrant.org — and clicking on the "En Español" link at the top of the page.
Through texasseagrant.org, the program offers valuable beach and hurricane safety information, as well as publications and programs designed to help improve the understanding, wise use and stewardship of the state's coastal and marine resources. Plotkin said it is important for the growing number of Spanish speaking Texans to have access to this information in their native language.
Most of the pages featured on TXSG's English language page are available in Spanish and new content will be translated as it is developed and posted. Some of the archived information on the site will remain English only.
Otherwise, the Spanish language site will mirror TXSG's English language site and will be viewable using any web browser.
Texasseagrant.org is also a portal to information about a variety of coastal and marine science, resource and safety issues, including monofilament recycling, aquaculture, fisheries and the Clean Texas Marinas Program. There are also links to marine education activities like the National Ocean Sciences Bowl and TXSG's Floating Classroom Program.
For web surfers looking for more technical information, texasseagrant.org features abstracts of research currently funded by TXSG, and a listing of the program's past funded research and the resulting scientific papers. TXSG currently funds about $800,000 per year in research conducted by respected scientists at universities across the state.
The site also features TXSG's bookstore and links to the Program's social media pages on Scoop.it!, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and YouTube.

Updated: December 6, 2013 8:27AM
SPRINGFIELD — In a private bill-signing ceremony, Gov. Pat Quinn Thursday quietly enacted a newly passed, $160 billion pension-reform package in a move certain to launch a lengthy round of litigation from labor unions challenging its constitutionality.
Quinn's office announced his move in a prepared statement and without any of the fanfare that accompanied his signing last month of legislation legalizing same-sex marriages – an event staged at the UIC Forum before hundreds of gay and lesbian activists and with Quinn handing out dozens of ceremonial pens to mark the occasion.
"Illinois is moving forward," Quinn said. "this is a serious solution to address the most dire fiscal challenge of our time."
The muted way the governor enacted the pension bill undoubtedly is rooted in the political realities of his tenuous 2014 re-election bid, where he needs to make peace with the same public-employee labor unions whom he outraged with his stroke of the pen Thursday.

BERNE— South Adams High School had their first opportunity to host the Coaches Versus Cancer Classic in its third year of existence on Saturday in what turned out to be one of the nicest days of the early spring season albeit blustery.
The Starfires did not fare as well as the weather, however, going 0-2 against Adams Central and Bellmont in the opening and closing games. Bellmont was a winner over the Jets in the middle game. All proceeds from the concession stands as well as entrance fees were donated for cancer research.
Tonight the Squaws host the Garrett Railroaders for their home opener on the softball diamond (weather permitting). The game is slated for a 5 p.m. start tonight with the DDD pre-game show set for a 4:45 start.
To view tonight's contest, click on the link below. Log in with a username and password to enjoy the service for free. All games will be archived for 30 days after the live event. Go Bellmont!
PORTLAND—Bellmont and Adams Central ventured south to Jay County Thursday evening for a triangular girls and boys track meet with the Patriots with Jay County nudging out the Squaws by a mere two points on the girls side while Adams Central claimed victory in the boys meet by a 9 1/3 point edge.
Other teammates in the 4 x 4 joining Gunsett were Ally Norby, Grace Fisher, and Alyssa Strickler.
BLUFFTON— The Braves took advantage of six Tiger errors in the third inning to break open the game scoring six runs eventually ending with a victory via mercy rule, 13-2 after just five frames.
Bellmont (2-0) got three quality innings from junior Parker Zeser on the hill as he struck out six of the 13 batters he faced lining himself up for the win. Sawyer Boyd and Brett Baker each pitched one scoreless inning of relief as the Braves needed only five innings to top the Tigers thanks to the hot bats.
Tonight the Braves travel to Bluffton to face the Tigers in a varsity baseball contest. The game is slated to begin at approximately 5 p.m. The pre-game broadcast will begin at 4:45 p.m.

FORT WAYNE— The Bellmont Braves opened their 2014 campaign with a 4-2 victory over the South Side Archers at Elmhurst Field on Tuesday night using a three-run sixth inning to boost the win.
Braves' hurler Mason Shinabery had nine strikeouts in the win going five quality innings, while reliever Ryan Okoniewski aided the rest of the way on the hill for the Braves with the two-inning save.
Two Bellmont High School graduates who are longtime friends and current college roommates had great weekends in separate sports for Indiana Tech.
Zach Wetzel fired a one-under par 71 at Brookwood Golf Club in Fort Wayne to finish second in the U. of Saint Francis Spring Invite, leading his team to a runnerup finish. Ten teams and 60 golfers competed in the event.
Due to the need for more youth girls to join, the Decatur Girls Softball will hold one late registration on Saturday, April 5.
The late registration will be held from noon until 2 p.m. at Bellmont High School in the gym lobby.
The cost of the leagues is $60 for Junior and Senior Leagues, and $50 for Beginner and Advanced Beginner Leagues. This fee covers the fundraiser tickets.

Any card adapter available that takes SD card and use on CF-only D-SLR?
Jul 22, 2009
I am looking for some adapter that allows me to insert into it a SD card, and use the whole thing on my Canon 400D (a.k.a. Digital Rebel XTi, a CF-only camera). Does anyone has any idea whether such a thing is available?

Wrapping up Russell's spring menu is a strawberry panna cotta. "As a kid, I always loved strawberry Quik and strawberry milk shakes," he says. "The combination of something creamy and cool with the fruitiness of strawberries, especially freshly picked in season, is hard to beat."
- 4 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 vanilla bean
- 1/2 cup goat cheese (Split Creek Farm)
- 3/4 cup strawberry purée
- 2 packets powdered gelatin (about 4½ tsp.)
- 6 Tbs. cold water
- 8 fresh strawberries
For the strawberry purée:
- 1/2 lb. strawberries, sliced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- Combine strawberries and sugar in a large saucepan and simmer over medium heat until the strawberries begin to fall apart and exude their liquid.
- Pour mixture into a food processor and purée until smooth.
Heat heavy cream and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until completely dissolved. Remove pan from heat. Split vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape seeds into the cream, then add the bean itself.
Stir in goat cheese and half of the strawberry purée. Cover, set aside, and let the mixture infuse for 30 minutes. Remove bean and re-warm mixture over low heat.
In a medium bowl, sprinkle gelatin over the cold water and let stand five to 10 minutes. Pour the warmed panna cotta mixture into gelatin and stir until completely dissolved.
Divide panna cotta mixture among eight five-ounce glasses and refrigerate until firm, about two hours. When ready to serve, top each with a dollop of purée and garnish with a strawberry.

Found January 31, 2013 on Soccerlens:
PLAYERS: Harry Redknapp, Peter Crouch
Harry Redknapp to raid Spurs on deadline day - originally posted on Soccerlens.comQueens Park Rangers manager Harry Redknapp is looking to raid on his former club Tottenham with the signings of David Bentley, Jermaine Jenas and Andros Townsend before the January transfer window closes today. David Bentley is one of the three Spurs players wanted by Redknapp Redknapp has already signed Loic Remy, Tal Bel Haim and Yun Suk-Young. He has addressed the importance of buying new faces to bolster the squad before the window closes as QPR are struggling at rock bottom in the Premier League table, four points from safety. Bentley joined Spurs from Blackburn Rovers in 2008 for a reported fee of £15 million and his deal will expire in the summer of 2014. The 28-year-old has been plying his trade in the Russian Premier League with FC Rostov on loan from Spurs and his capture would surely raise eyebrows, given his unsavoury relationship with Harry Redknapp in the past.

Gonorrhea is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, a bacterium that can grow and multiply easily in mucous membranes of the body. Gonorrhea bacteria can grow in the warm, moist areas of the reproductive tract, including the cervix (opening to the womb), uterus (womb), and fallopian tubes (egg canals) in women, and in the urethra (urine canal) in women and men. The bacteria can also grow in the mouth, throat, and anus.
Use latex condoms correctly every time you have sex.
Persons who choose to engage in sexual behaviors that can place them at risk for STIs should use latex condoms every time they have sex. A condom put on the penis before starting sex and worn until the penis is withdrawn can help protect both the male and the female partner from gonorrhea. When a male condom cannot be used appropriately, sex partners should consider using a female condom.
When initially infected, the majority of men have some signs or symptoms. Symptoms and signs include a burning sensation when urinating and a yellowish white discharge from the penis. Sometimes men with gonorrhea get painful or swollen testicles.
In women, the early symptoms of gonorrhea are often mild, and many women who are infected have no symptoms of infection.
Even when a woman has symptoms, they can be so non-specific as to be mistaken for a bladder or vaginal infection. The initial symptoms and signs in women include a painful or burning sensation when urinating, yellow vaginal discharge and spotting.
Women with no or mild gonorrhea symptoms are still at risk of developing serious complications from the infection. Untreated gonorrhea in women can develop into pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
Symptoms of rectal infection include discharge, anal itching, soreness, bleeding, and sometimes painful bowel movements. Infections in the throat cause few symptoms.
Gonorrhea is easily treated and cured with antibiotics. Most often just one dose is required. all sex partners should also be treated. Men and women should not have sex for 7 days after treatment to prevent spreading the infection.

yessss (*ahem*). Um, I'm mostly listing PWPs and short one-shots, since I think that's what you're asking. Rimming is fairly common in sex scenes, even in longer fics where the sex/rimming is not the focus, so I'm just going to focus on fics where it's more or less the focus. (could I say focus more, I wonder?)
longer fics you can find on Dirty Bookshelves that contains rimming, but where rimming is not the focus of the sex/story:

Don't forget these tenants; the kind you can't evict. Our Tall Ghost's unique construction gives it a creepy sway.
Place a dot of glue on the foam ball and twist the screw eye into the ball through the glue. Let it dry.
Insert the dowel into the insulation. Then fit a plastic slip-joint wall tube over each end of the insulation, covering 2 inches of each end. Use white cloth tape to secure the tubes in place and to cover the insulation.
Loop the fishing line in half around the middle of the insulation 2 times and knot. Leave 3 or 4 inches of space in the lines as shown, then knot both pieces together again.
Thread the two ends of the line in opposite directions through the screw eye and tightly wrap them around the ball as shown. Tie the lines together at the top of the ball. Stick a square of double-sided tape on each side of the knot, attaching the line to the ball.
Cut eyes and a mouth from the black felt and attach them to the ball with double-sided tape. Holding both lines together, thread the ends through the centers of the gauze sheets, draping the gauze over the foam ball and shoulder piece. Then just stick the gauze to the top of the double-sided tape on the head.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear signed Senate Bill 109 Monday, making it illegal to sell e-cigarettes to minors.
The bill places e-cigarettes under the same rules and regulations as tobacco products. It passed the Ky. legislature in March.
Retailers would also face the same fines and penalties for selling them to anyone under the age of 18.
E-cigarettes produce a vaporized or aerosol form of nicotine.
Before signing the bill, Gov. Beshear said that even e-cigarettes that claim to be nicotine-free are not reliable, saying "they're essentially unregulated in how they're made or sold."

My Top 3 Men's Shalwar Kurta places in Karachi
I like wearing Shalwar Kurta, the reason being they are really comfortable, in summers the cotton ones keeps you cool and the biggest of them is that they can hide the fact that you have been skipping gym for the last six months This last fact comes with a fine print, that is if your waist line is between 30-35 inches, then it's cool, however if it is over 35 then it's dangerous as that can potentially book you a trip to the cardiac ward of your local hospital.
Anyway, since I've been buying readymade shalwar kurtas for quite some time now, I thought I'd rate my top three favourite brands here.
Number 1 spot goes to Thredz. They have a great collection of Kurtas whether you want simple striped ones or the ones that are heavily embroidered and anything in between. The range of fabric plus a collection that is updated regularly makes this my top pick when it comes to buying ready made kurtas. However, they have some points that go against them, but they are more than made up because of the huge collection and the friendly staff that they employee.
First of all, they are the most expensive of all the brands listed here, the plain stripped kurtas without the embroidery are in the range of Rs 1,800 to Rs 2,200 depending on the fabric. Secondly, their size patterns are different from the rest. This means that if this is your first time, make sure that you try before you buy because the large that you buy elsewhere might be a medium here.
Cotton & Silk:
Located at Zamzama, they only have one outlet in Karachi. They are the place to go if you are looking for elegant Shalwar Kurtas instead of the flashy, colorful ones. They don't get new designs that often, so you can't make this the only place you buy shalwar kurtas from if you wear them regularly but the ones they do can be used on formal occasions. The only thing they lack is the embroidered ones but then for the elegant not so flashy it is always good that the embroidery is missing in action.
Third place is a tie between Junaid Jamshed and Khaadi:
Khaadi used to be my number one spot for Kurtas. This was when they were focused on only menswear. Now that they have diversified into everything from women's wear to home textiles, it looks like no one pays attention to the thing that got them famous, i.e., menswear. Now they are mostly rehashing the designs from the past and the quality of their fabric has gone down drastically. It's a hit and miss as far as their fabric quality is concerned. Some of them will last while the others bleed to death in no time.
Junaid Jamshed's designs are my least favorite ones, but to their credit they always have enough designs that I can find something to my liking. However the thing that I like about JJ is they are very price competitive, add to that their 10% discount membership card (15% if you have the gold card) and it's hard to ignore them. Their kurtas start from Rs 1,300 – 1,400 and minus 10% from that and you really can't beat that.
I don't know how you go about getting the membership card, I was lucky to get one for free as they gave it away when they launched it at one of their lawn exhibition 2-3 years ago and my wife was there shopping (hmmmm in that case I beg to differ as it wasn't free), it doesn't expire so I am still using it.
I didn't put Amir Adnan and Deepak Perwani in this list, because they are very expensive for what they offer, especially Deepak Perwani. While Amir Adnan has some really cool designs, but I still don't want to pay that much no matter how nice the designs are,. My only experience at Deepak Perwani was so bad that I never went back. I was at Park Towers about two years ago and thought it wouldn't hurt to see what they have to offer. As I was looking thru their kurta collection, I came across a Rs 2,500 kurta, made out of the same fabric that I had bought for Rs 75/meter from Tariq Road a week earlier. I immediately got out from there and never went back.

411 MMA Fact or Fiction 09.26.12: UFC 152 Edition
Posted by
Wyatt Beougher
on 09.26.2012
Was Belfort lasting as long as he did more surprising than Johnson winning the flyweight title? Will Ronda Rousey face the winner of Liz Carmouche/Sara McMann next, rather than Sheborg? Did Jon Jones "get him some fans" by gutting out what might have been a very serious injury and picking up the win? 411's Mark Radulich and Robert Winfree debate these topics and more in this week's
MMA Fact or Fiction
Welcome to another edition of 411's MMA Fact or Fiction, and, as usual, I'm your host, Wyatt Beougher. Last week, we had another excellent Fact or Fiction, and I really can't commend all of the writers in the MMA Zone (plus my special guests like Todd Vote and Steve Cook) for doing such a great job week in and week out. Yes, it's my name that goes on the byline for this column, but it's the guys who compete each and every week who make it as special as it is. Last week, I favored Patrick Mullin in a very even battle, while my guest judge, the aforementioned Mr. Vote, saw it for Pat's opponent, the esteemed Jonathan Solomon. When voting closed, Patrick picked up the win by a 3-vote margin to improve his 1-0-1 record in Fact or fiction. Solomon on the other hand, fell to 1-2-0 and that's another testament to just how many talented writers we have on our roster that as impressive a writer as Jonathan holds a record under .500. Thanks to both Patrick and Jonathan for their amazing answers last week, and also to Todd for doing such an awesome job judging. This week is yet another treat, as we've got Mark Radulich making his fourth appearance in Fact or Fiction against Robert Winfree, who will be competing for the fifth time, which will tie him with Todd Vote for most trips into the ForF cage. Joining me at the judges' table will be Matt White.
[Editor's Note: Again, scheduling difficulties made it impossible for Matt to get his responses to me by the deadline, so I'll edit them in as soon as I receive them. -W]

/The 411 MMA Top 5
1.) The fact that Vitor Belfort was able to last into the fourth round against Jon Jones was more surprising than Demetrious Johnson's upset win over Joseph Benavidez.
Mark Radulich:
We had people at our house to watch the fight and celebrate my wife's 29th birthday. I was so convinced Belfort wouldn't make it out of the first round I was starting to say goodbye to my guest once the fight actually started. With Jones' reach and superior fight acumen I really didn't think Belfort would last as long as he did. Don't get me wrong, he put up a hell of a fight and nearly winning it in the first round with an armbar is my MMA moment of the year so far. However, I'd be lying if I told you I expected anything other than his swift and complete destruction inside of about 45 seconds.
To the second part of question, while I did predict that Benavidez would KO Johnson rather quickly, I also can't say I'm surprised he eked out a split decision victory either. If Benavidez had been able to plant and land one of his devastating overhand rights, I think I would have been right but that right there is the rub isn't it? Johnson is damn hard to catch, let alone land a KO shot on. McCall couldn't really do it and although he won, Cruz also went to a decision with him almost a year ago. While I'm disappointed that we didn't see the finisher that Benavidez tends to be, I'm not surprised he was taken all five rounds by Mighty Mouse either.
Robert Winfree:
I'm not saying I'm not a little surprised that Belfort lasted as long as he did, because I am, but the more I think about this the less shocked I am. Jon Jones isn't the same fighter who was smashing guys in the first round en route to a title shot. Jones is a much more measured and patient fighter now than he was then. He's content to use his reach and kicks to set up safe opportunities that he can capitalize on. I predicted a swift finish for Jon Jones, but I think that's not going to be as common as it used to be. On the other hand, I don't think anyone really gave Mighty Mouse a real chance to beat Benavidez. The close submission was more surprising, but the fact that it went that deep for the light heavyweight title, it's a bit less surprising the more I think about it.
Judge Wyatt Beougher's Scorecard:
I was all set to award this to Mark, but Robert makes a valid point – we haven't really seen Jones finish anyone quickly in quite some time. He won the title in the third round, beat Rampage in the fourth round, he did beat Machida in the second, and he went to a decision with Rashad. Also, considering almost no one gave Johnson
Belfort a chance, and Johnson actually won, while Belfort just delayed the inevitable, I'm giving the nod to Robert.
Winfree, 10-9 (10-9 overall)
Judge Matt White's Scorecard:
I am digging both answers, they provide good insight to both fights however, with all the comparisons we see to Jones and Anderson Silva, I have to give the nod to Mark on this. It's very surprising that Vitor made it to the 4th round even though he was pretty much dominated other than the armbar he had on Jones. Mighty Mouse isn't a finisher, Benavidez is and while Robert showed why he thought that was more surprising, it still doesn't change the fact everyone had Vitor losing in the first two rounds.
Radulich, 10-9 (10-9 overall)
2.) Jon Jones fighting through potential nerve damage and still dominating Vitor Belfort was the most impressive performance of the night and should dispel any questions about his toughness inside the cage.
Robert Winfree:
Fighting through any type of injury is impressive, but if Jones is telling the truth about not being able to really feel his arm for the fight after that armbar, that's kind of crazy. Especially since he continued to throw punches with it, and use it effectively in grappling exchanges. In the finishing sequence he even used that elbow to land some nasty shots from the mounted crucifix before locking up the fight ending Americana. Whether you like Jones as a person or not, at this point it's impossible to question his talent and toughness inside the cage.
Mark Radulich:
Everything in the above sentence is true but I don't think Jones' toughness was ever in doubt. I think most people realize that Jones is a tough fighter and easily one of the most talented mixed martial artists in the world. In fact, I think a lot of what engenders such hatred of Jones is that it seems to come all too easily to him. He dominates his opponents seemingly with little effort (barring a first round feeling out process). I doubt serious-minded people believe Jones turned down the fight Sonnen because he was afraid of the guy or because he was a pansy but rather he did for what appeared to be solely political reasons. "His brand was at stake." "He needs to look out for his own career and the UFC." These were the reasons he cited for not taking the fight and they don't speak his toughness as a fighter but rather his character outside of the cage.
Judge Wyatt Beougher's Scorecard:
Both guys with excellent answers here, but I'm giving the narrow nod to Mark. While I agree with everything both guys brought up, Mark expounded on the public's general perception of Jones, and while I think there was a certain segment of MMA fandom who questioned how Jones would react should a fight ever go really,
wrong for him (and it doesn't get much wrong-er than that armbar), precisely because of how easily fighting appears to come to him, those questions should certainly be answered.
Radulich, 10-9 (19-19 overall)
Judge Matt White's Scorecard:
Another tight round here, but with Radulich's talk about the outside cage and Winfree's talk about the physical toll it took on Jones make me give the round to Winfree. I agree I don't believe anyone questioned Jones' toughness inside of the cage and Winfree capitalized on that with his point based on the finishing sequence that Jones used to win the fight.
Winfree, 10-9 (19-19 overall)
3.) Ronda Rousey's next challenger will be the winner of the Liz Carmouche/Sara McMann fight on Strikeforce's November 3rd event, not Cristiane Santos.
Mark Radulich:
Mrs. Cyborg isn't going to be available until after December due to her failed drug test and even then, it is uncertain if she'll be granted a license. Meanwhile, Rousey needs another fight, and the Liz Carmouche/Sara McMann match-up on the Cormier vs Mir Shmegeggy November 3rd card is the best option available at this time, short of Marloes Coenen. Zuffa is not likely to promote Cyborg, just like Alistair Overeem, in a fight until the license issue is resolved in a concrete manner. Meanwhile, they will seek to strike while the iron is hot and make the fight that is available to them now, Rousey vs Carmouche/McMann. And like I said, besides Coenen, Carmouche and McMann are the best of the rest at 135lbs. Carmouche is on a 2-fight win streak besting Kaitlin Young and Ashleigh Curry at the past 2 Invicta events. If she beats McMann she'll be 3-0 in her past 3 fights and 8 -2 overall. Ya can't complain about that. Meanwhile, McMann is 6-0 overall and has tons of medals from her prior wrestling career. Either woman is good enough to
be arm-barred to death by Rowdy Ronda Rousey
take on the champion until a proper build up can be laid out for the inevitable Rousey vs Cyborg battle.
Robert Winfree:
This is pretty easy to predict, because there isn't really another option. Sure a fight with Sheborg would be money, but she's still serving a suspension and Strikeforce might not be in business by the time it's up. Carmouche or McMann are the most logical options right now, unless they want to have her beat Marloes Coenen and have defeated every former champion since the title was introduced to Strikeforce. I'm perfectly happy with either Carmouche or McMann being the next fight for Rousey, even though the fight will again end by armbar in the first round.
Judge Wyatt Beougher's Scorecard:
Both guys agree, and in similar fashion, so I'm scoring this one a
Draw, 10-10 (29-29 overall)
Judge Matt White's Scorecard:
Both guys made pretty much the exact same points. Cyborg is suspended and Rousey needs an opponent before then. Carmouche and McMann are definitely the most logical options. Neither stands out.
Draw, 10-10 (29-29 overall)
4.) With Frank Mir injured and out of his fight with Daniel Cormier, Zuffa should take Andrei Arlovski up on his offer to step in and fight Cormier.
Robert Winfree:
I think it would be a much better idea to take Fabricio Werdum up on his offer to fight Cormier. Arlovski still has a bit of name value, but his chin is shot and he's not the fighter he used to be. Werdum is a step up in competition, presents a different skill set than we've seen Cormier deal with in the past, and a win helps either guy without really hurting the loser. Yes losses always suck, but Werdum losing to Cormier is just a young hungry fighter stepping up, and if Cormier loses it's to a submission master who's on a march to the title. I wouldn't be shocked if Zuffa does go with Arlovski, but I think Werdum makes for a more compelling fight.
Mark Radulich:
First let me speak to a bit of news that broke on Tuesday after I received the above statement, "A heavyweight bout between Andrei Arlovski and Devin Cole will serve as the main event of WSOF 1, officials today announced. WSOF 1 takes place Nov. 3 at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas." Clearly the answer here can be nothing but FICTION as obviously Arlovski is no longer available for the booking on November 3rd. But even if he were available, I wholeheartedly agree with Robert in his suggestion of subbing Fabricio Werdum. Robert enumerated a great many fine reasons Werdum is a good enough replacement for Mir and his arguments are compelling. If the UFC opts to go in a different direction I'd say either bring over an M -1 guy like Kenny Garner or Guram Gugenishvili or even Maxim Grishin. M -1 already has a relationship with Showtime, these guys aren't terribly busy and all of them are probably easy enough fights for Cormier. And perish the thought, maybe just maybe between Zuffa and Showtime they can pull together enough scratch to lure Fedor out of retirement for one fight. Tell me Emelianenko vs Emelianegro wouldn't be box office gold! But I'm probably just dreaming here and Zuffa will send over Ben Rothwell.
Judge Wyatt Beougher's Scorecard:
Once again, Mark benefits from going second, as he expounds on Robert's answer and offers up a tantalizing platter of potential opponents. And while I don't necessarily think Garner, Gugenishvili, or Grishin would get the green light from Showtime, if they could coax Fedor out of retirement, that'd do wonders for the show.
[Editor's note: Do they really call Cormier "Emelianegro"? – W]
Radulich, 10-9 (39-38 overall)
Judge Matt White's Scorecard:
I am a fan of the Arlovski matchup but both guys agree that this is not going to happen. However, I give the nod to Radulich because he expanded past a Werdum/Cormier matchup with the M -1 and teasing a Fedor match as well.
Radulich, 10-9 (39-38 overall)
5.) With their Canadian shows implementing drug testing from an outside source (other than the local athletic commission) for headline fighters and other randomly selected fighters on the card, it's time for the UFC to implement that policy in the United States (and any other locale where they will hold events).
Mark Radulich:
Of course they should. I've been saying this for months now that the UFC should be contracting a 3rd party provider to do their drug testing for all events. The nonsense Dana White spouted a few months ago saying he didn't have time to chase guys for urine made it sound like he wasn't really interested in cleaning up MMA. Nobody expects Dana White or anyone within Zuffa to conduct drug testing. Furthermore, the local athletic commission shouldn't have to be bothered with doing either. Third party providers allow for a completely neutral and professional hand to do the job properly and consistently so that you don't have an issue like the one that defamed the California Athletic Commission a few weeks ago.
Robert Winfree:
This is something of a no brainer. With drug testing done only by athletic commissions there has always been some room for elements of corruption. Having a genuinely independent source do drug testing does nothing but help the legitimacy of the sport.
Judge Wyatt Beougher's Scorecard:
Both guys in agreement here, and I agree with them completely. I'm giving the narrow nod to Mark in this round for going after Dana White and calling out his nonsense excuses for why the UFC doesn't do this already.
Radulich, 10-9 (49-47 overall)
Judge Matt White's Scorecard:
Another tough one as the guys both agree on this again. Radulich just seemed to go a little farther on the subject and gives him the slight favor in the round.

Bonus.) Jon Jones' performance at the UFC 152 pre-fight press conference (saying he forgives Dana White and saying that Zuffa brass insulted the other fighters scheduled for UFC 151 by saying the card couldn't go on without Jones/Henderson, among other comments) did nothing to endear him to his employers and will continue to alienate MMA fans.
Robert Winfree:
Wait, so speaking the truth about a situation doesn't make people like you? What world are we living in?! If we live in this world then Chris Jericho is an uber heel. Oh wait... Seriously though, if this were just about Jones' relationship with Zuffa brass I'd go fact. Zuffa likes their fighters to toe the company line, and most do because angering the brass could mean a quick exit from the only big MMA promotion in the world. I also agree with Jones, I said after the event was canceled that Dana White was basically giving the finger to every other fighter on that card, saying they didn't matter and that without Jon Jones the whole event was meaningless. Will this alienate fans? I'm not sure, speaking the truth like that isn't always popular, but I'm hesitant to say it will hurt at this point.
Mark Radulich:
Yes his comments made him come off like an aloof douchebag. But so what? As long as he honors his contract, wins fights and shows up for press engagements while not committing any serious felonies, there isn't much they can do to him. If being a douchebag was all you needed to get you fired from the UFC, Michael Bisping would be in BAMMA right now. I didn't like Jones' decision to not fight on September 1st but ultimately that doesn't matter either. He honored his contract by fighting on the next available show and has been available to promote the show ever since he committed to it. They can't realistically fire the guy under those circumstances and since they can't realistically fire him, he can continue to "not endear" himself to the Zuffa brass all the way to the bank. As long as he's showing up, testing clean and winning, he can be all the asshole he wants to be. Dana White will just have to bite the pillow and deal with it. Hey, Jones could be worse. He could be Floyd Mayweather.
Judge Wyatt Beougher's Scorecard:
This was easily the closest round of the contest, as Robert rightfully pointed out that Jones was merely stating the truth, while Mark highlighted the fact that Jones has been an otherwise model citizen for the UFC (minus the DWI) and that he's going to have to do significantly worse to get into any serious trouble. In the end, I'm giving this round to Radulich for offering up such a horrific alternative, one that will hopefully make embittered MMA fans appreciate the UFC light heavyweight champion more.
Radulich, 10-9
Judge Matt White's Scorecard:
I liked both answers as Winfree went one way and Radulich went the other. I am leaning toward Radulich's answer since he answers as Bones Jones would. Jones has to know he's answering these questions quite douche-like and why should he care? He's wiped out the division.
Radulich, 10-9

News Releases
Officials of the Catholic Diocese of Marquette have deemed credible a recent allegation of sexual abuse of a minor against a deceased religious order priest from Belgium.
The allegation was lodged against Father Bernard ("Fr. Ben") Van der Schueren, S.J., a priest of the Society of Jesus, commonly called the Jesuits. The complaint deals with an incident involving a boy that happened during July of 1989 when Fr. Van der Schueren filled in for a diocesan priest at St. Michael Parish in Marquette. Fr. Van der Schueren died in 2009 at the age of 86.
As soon as the allegation was received, diocesan officials immediately began following the Diocese of Marquette's Policy on Sexual Misconduct in Ministry. In keeping with that policy, the complaint was referred to Jesuit leadership, in this case, the Chicago-Detroit Province.
In addition, the Office of the Administrator of the Diocese of Marquette informed the Diocesan Review Board for the Protection of Children and Young People of the complaint, and the diocesan attorney reported the allegation to the Marquette County Prosecutor's Office.
After the complaint was lodged, the Jesuits of the Chicago-Detroit Province initiated their safeguarding procedures for sexual abuse of minors in pastoral ministries and contacted the Flemish Jesuits in Belgium. The Flemish provincial superior has committed himself to full cooperation with the investigation. The Chicago-Detroit Province Jesuits have taken charge of dealing with the accusations. They have contacted the victim/survivor of the abuse and have offered counseling and spiritual assistance.
On behalf of the Church, Kevin Branson, Diocesan Director of Ministry Personnel, offers his sincere apologies to the victim/survivor who lodged the complaint against Fr. Van der Schueren and any other victims/survivors who may have been harmed by him.
"Our first concern is always for the victims/survivors of abuse, and we pray that all of those affected by this situation and others like it will find healing and peace," said Branson.
"If there are other victims/survivors of sexual misconduct by a priest, church worker or volunteer who have not yet made a complaint to the diocese, I encourage them to do so, no matter how long ago the abuse occurred. We want to help them receive counseling and pastoral care on their journey toward healing."
To find support and bring a complaint of sexual misconduct to the attention of the Diocese of Marquette, please do the following:
The contact people above will also help victims/survivors bring their concerns to church officials outside the diocese if the sexual misconduct occurred elsewhere and they now reside in the Diocese of Marquette. Those who are unsure about bringing a complaint or would like further information should contact Kevin Branson as indicated above.

The Nashville Predators picked up where they ended the preseason, beating the Columbus Blue Jackets 3-2 at Nationwide Arena on Friday night. Matt Halischuk's backhander, 39 seconds into the third period was the eventual game winner. Ryan Suter and Craig Smith had the first two Preds' goals. Vinny Prospal and Rick Nash scored for the Jackets. Pekka Rinne picked up the win, stopping 32 of 34 shots, while Steve Mason gave up three goals on 31 Predator shots. The Preds converted a goal on three chances on the man advantage while holding Columbus scoreless on five power plays.
It was a typical Preds-Jackets game with plenty of chippy play and close checking in a back and forth game. The game ended with a scramble in front of the Predator net with bodies all over the ice trying to cover the puck in the last few seconds. The Predators left immediately after the game and will play the Blues in St. Louis on Saturday night at 7 p.m.
Random Notes
Barry Trotz now has a winning record in opening games, moving to 7-6 with the victory.
The Preds continued their net crashing with aggressive play around the net with Spaling, Halischuk, Hornqvist, Wilson, and O'Reilly all camping out around the net looking for rebound goals.
Shea Weber knocked Steve Mason's helmet off with a shot from the blue line midway through the second period.
Rick Nash really went down easily drawing a penalty when Smithson touched his skates in the third period.
Prospal hit a post in the third period that could have easily gone in off of Rinne had it not been for a favorable bounce. On the other end, Craig Smith got a pipe at 3:38 in what could have been his second goal.
Jerred Smithson missed a chance at an empty netter with when he committed a turnover near the Columbus net.
The Predators Wisconsin connection provided two goals and an assist with Suter and Smith picking up goals and Suter also adding an assist. Smith tied for the most shots with five along with Shea Weber and Nick Spaling.
Jackets fans had to be happy with Jeff Carter's and Vinny Prospal's first games in Columbus as Prospal had had a goal and an assist and Carter had two assists. Rick Nash also had a two point game with a goal and a helper.
The Predators new third defensive pair, Hillen and Laakso, each took penalties in the game while playing 23 shifts and each had a shot.
The Predators struggled in the faceoff circle, winning 30 and losing 43 for a 42% win total.
Mike Fisher was given the team's second "A" before the game but Marty Erat donned it during the game as Fisher remains on Injured Reserve.
Scratches for game one were Zack Stortini, Niclas Bergfors, and Mattias Ekholm. It was somewhat surprising that Stortini sat since Columbus always seems to resort to fisticuffs.

Got a question on rule clarification, comments on rule enforcements or some memorable NHL stories? Kerry Fraser wants to answer your emails at email@example.com!
I appreciate the insight that you give to the game and the different perspective that we as fans do not get to experience. My question is about the Rangers/Devils game on Monday night. At the start of the game, the Devils starting lineup was their fourth line, so the Rangers countered with their fourth line as well. That is all well and good, with the exception of the fact that John Tortorella had Stu Bickel (a defenceman) take the opening draw. This was 100 per cent for the purposes of starting a fight, which happened immediately.
If a team is charged with an instigation penalty in the last five minutes of the game, the coach is fined $10,000. Why does this not factor in at the beginning of the game? The players can police themselves, and if a fight (fights) broke out after the opening draw, that is acceptable, but when Torts has Bickel take the draw, it is obvious that the actions of Torts are premeditated and in my opinion he should be fined and/or suspended. Also, is there any recourse for the on-ice officials for ejecting a coach from the game?
I appreciate any of your insight or thoughts.
Mark Odenheimer
Hamilton, NJ
Hey Kerry,
Just a quick question on the incident that occurred during the opening faceoff of the New York Rangers vs. New Jersey game. Should the second and third fights after the original altercation been assessed game misconduct penalties or not since the fights began at the same time, Rule 46.7 wouldn't apply?
Thanks, Jeff
Mark and Jeff:
The bell rang just three seconds into the Devils-Rangers game last night but was set in motion well in advance of the opening puck drop. The fight card was drawn up after head coach Peter DeBoer of the visiting New Jersey Devils dared to scratch the names of his tough guys onto the starting lineup sheet on foreign turf. The official scorer delivered the perceived challenge to John Tortorella and he responded with a counterpunch as any little General would do to defend the fort and his team's honour.
This was all about establishing ongoing territorial advantage on both sides of the Lincoln Tunnel and about respect. It was achieved in part on this night through trench warfare and is likely to be continued; or as the saying goes, "Until we meet again."
Mark is absolutely correct that Stu Bickel didn't take the opening draw to gain puck possession. The battle lines were drawn and the personnel were in place. The only spark required to light the fuse was the release of the puck from Referee Kelly Sutherland's grasp. [*Note: If the fight had commenced prior to the opening puck drop a major and game misconduct would be assessed (Rule 46.9) to each guilty player and team fined $25,000. If a player was deemed to be an instigator he (they) would be automatically suspended for 10 games. It's a good thing the puck didn't get stuck in Kelly Sutherland's hand!]
Everything that took place after the puck drop followed the rules of engagement and were worthy of the appropriate penalties under the playing rules; that is so long as fighting is allowed to remain in the game. As such there was nothing that the referee could impose on either coach for the personnel that they placed on the ice to start the game.
There was no instigator assessed in the fights due to the fact that each combatant was correctly deemed a willing participant by the Referee(s). There was no distance travelled as spelled out in the instigator rule since each player lined up opposite to and within a short jab of his respective dance partner.
Jeff, the game misconduct that is normally deserved under Rule 46.7 to any player who is assessed a major for fighting after the original altercation has started could not be applied because all three fights were deemed to have begun simultaneously.
Rule 46.12 clearly spells out provisions for a player deemed to be an instigator in the final five minutes of regulation or anytime in overtime. There is no such provision at other times within the game. (As previously stated there was no instigator in any of the three fights as all participants were spontaneous and willing combatants.)
Continuing the thought process on an instigator penalty in the final five minutes of regulation time, Rule 44.22 lists the potential for a one-game suspension to the instigator and a $10,000 fine to his coach. The language of Rule 46.2 (less than five minutes remaining) allows the Director of Hockey Operations to consider, for the purpose of review, if he deems the incident related to the score, previous incidents in the game or prior games, retaliatory in nature, "message sending", etc. None of this applies at the start of the game.
The broad sweep of power is found in Rule 28 (Supplementary Discipline) — "In addition to the automatic fines and suspensions imposed under these rules, the Commissioner may, at his discretion, investigate any incident that occurs in connection with any Pre-season, Exhibition, League or Playoff game and may assess additional fines and/or suspensions for nay offence committed during the course of a game or any aftermath thereof by a player, goalkeeper, Trainer, Manager, Coach or non-playing personnel or Club executive, whether or not such offence has been penalized by the Referee." (This must be initiated within 24 hours following the completion of the game in which the incident occurred.)
Mark and Jeff, don't expect anything further to come of this; not at this particular juncture anyway. We will have to wait for a potential playoff matchup for the next bell to ring. The opportunity for that to occur will largely rest in the pen hand of the visiting coach who can send the next shot up the hall with the official scorer in the form of his starting lineup.
For many involved last night (players and fans) the "affectionate" quote of farewell might just apply; "Thinking of you and counting the days until we meet again."
