Kids -- We're Getting Back Together!
Many couples decide to get back together after a long or short period following separation or divorce. While reuniting is exciting, it is also stressful.
Dr. Cara Gardenswartz: Many thoughts enter the couple's mind:
Will it last this time?
Will it turn sour again when we are living together?
Does my partner think about the other lovers?
Will he/she abandon me again?
How will our extended family and friends react?
Sorting through this emotional turmoil is hard enough; but when children are involved, it's a whole different ballgame. The primary concern for these couples is: How will this affect our children?
Perhaps the children were toddlers or preschoolers when the couple separated -- and now the children are in grade school. In such circumstances, the youngest child may not even remember his parents living together. An older child may have a clearer picture of the breakup and emotions he/she experienced.
Furthermore, while most children have a deep wish that their parents remarry, this wish coming true can be confusing. Children will wonder: Is this real? What can I rely on? Will they stay together this time? Should I let myself believe they will?
Likewise, parents' fears about whether this will work out may make them reluctant to emphasize that the reunification is permanent. Other parents may overly underscore that "this time it will last" in order to decrease their child's fears. The reality is -- there is no absolute when it comes to whether the marriage will last the second time around. And there is no perfect formula as to how to best handle this situation. Nonetheless, here are some rules of thumb that may prove useful if you are considering getting back together:
Move slowly. Gradually date your ex-spouse and see how things develop. If it is moving in a positive direction, you can become more serious over time.
Attend couples therapy once you are seriously considering getting back together. Explore what led you to separating in the first place in a candid and honest manner. Talk about how you will handle and resolve future conflicts.
Date for several months (I recommend at least six months) before moving back in together. You want to be sure you have as much information as possible before making this important decision. When you first start "dating" again, do not tell your children you are doing so. There is no point in giving your children false hope until you are 90% certain that you will be taking the next step.
Talk to your couple's therapist about how to approach the topic with your children and how to make the move as seamless as possible. This will be one of the most important transitions in your child's life.
Expect your children to experience a myriad of emotions: happy, elated, confused, sad, angry, withdrawn, and fearful. It is only natural for your children to wonder if you will separate again. Be on the alert for nightmares or changes in your child's behavior. If you witness any signs of depression or an ongoing negative shift in their behavior, seek professional help. Consider child or family therapy.
Let your children's teachers know what is going on in the family so they are extra attuned to changes in your child's behavior.
Continue couples therapy after you have moved back in together. These first few months are critical to your relationship and will shape your future together as a couple and as a family.

wow- i can't imagine how confusing this would be for the kids
I don't know any couples who get back together (with kids) and make it. Anyone else?
Well stated because the emphasis is on the CHILDREN! Too many couples caught up in concern over themselves and forget the responsibility to their children must be primary and should be considered in all decisions.
If there is no abuse or drug-related issues in their departure, as a step-mother, I believe that parents should do anything and everything to get back together. Children need and will always need their "real" parents. I have seen the hurt that separation and divorce does to children. Until they are young adults, they will always want their parents to get back together. Others are just in the way. Face reality…they are just kids and they don't understand adult stuff. Get over yourselves and put your children first.

There's Usually Something for Everyone in Restaurant Stocks
Bob is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The restaurant sector is fascinating to follow. There are usually plenty of interesting stories and even an occasional bargain stock to be found. Plus, the basics of the industry are fairly simple to understand; offer a good product, at a fair price, in an attractive setting with acceptable service. But as simple as it sounds, success in the sector never ends up being that easy. Here are three restaurant stocks I follow that could be of interest to differing types of investors:
This industry giant produces steady income
Darden Restaurants (NYSE: DRI), the world's largest full-service restaurant company, owns and operates more than 2,100 locations. Its stock has fluctuated between $41 and $57 over the last couple of years, mainly due to an alternating pattern of disappointing results followed by surpassed expectations. But as variable as the stock has been, the company has consistently delivered free cash flow and paid a substantial dividend.
In its most recent quarter, Darden didn't seem to impress. Earnings from continuing operations came in at $133.3 million versus $151.6 million the prior year, though sales were up 11.3% to $2.30 billion, thanks to decent same-restaurant sales growth of around 2.2% and over 140 net new sites.
To maintain sales momentum, Darden is focusing on boosting traffic through more affordable pricing. It wants to match competitive promotions while maintaining low menu prices. To help offset the resulting pressure on profits, the company is looking to expand. One area targeted for growth is Latin America. Darden recently announced deals with two renowned restaurant operators to establish a presence in six Latin American countries. This comes on top of a February agreement to enter four other countries in the region and previous deals for expansion in Puerto Rico and Mexico.
Darden's stock currently looks reasonably priced. Using a cash earnings times a capitalization multiplier valuation, the company's fair business value looks around $49 a share based on an industry average multiple of 12 times, with estimated sales of $9.14 billion and $526 million in cash earnings at a 5.8% profit margin.
This eatery has cooked up plenty of momentum
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store (NASDAQ: CBRL) operates 622 company-owned sites in 42 states. Each location holds a restaurant and store where guests can enjoy home-style food and shopping that's reminiscent of America's country heritage.
The company's shares have certainly been on a roll, more than doubling over the last couple of years. Cracker Barrel first drew my attention in the fall of 2011 when it implemented a shareholder rights plan, or poison pill, to dissuade activist investor Sardar Biglari. Earlier, Biglari had announced a 9% stake in the company and quickly gained antitrust approval to acquire up to 49.99%. Though he has always maintained that his buys were for "investment purposes only," he has upped his stake to 19.99% and has been a thorn in the company's side by continually trying to get board representation.
Whether it was due to pressure applied by Biglari or just coincidence, Cracker Barrel management has certainly increased its focus on improving results. In its latest earnings report, comparable store restaurant sales increased a fine 3.1% and comparable store retail sales increased a hefty 5.5%. The sixth consecutive quarter of positive comparable restaurant and retail sales. Profitability also improved with operating income margin moving up to 6.9% of sales, versus 6.4% in the prior year. Earnings came in at $1.02 a share, a 26% jump compared to a year earlier.
It looks like Cracker Barrel's current stock price may have already discounted these and future gains, however. Based on expected revenue of $2.64 billion and $133 million in earnings at a 5% profit margin, fair value looks around $78 a share using an optimistic multiple of 14 times.
This restaurant's turnaround recipe could produce a tasty gain
Ruby Tuesday (NYSE: RT), which operates 783 company-owned or franchised Ruby Tuesday brand restaurants and 24 Lime Fresh brand locations, has pretty much disappointed Wall Street since 2010 when the stock traded as high as $14 and the company's recent earnings report didn't seem to improve Street confidence.
Results for the most recent quarter included same-restaurant sales decreasing 3.1% at company-owned sites and falling 5.1% at domestic franchise spots. Adjusted net income from continuing operations was a weak $7 million, compared to the prior-year's figure of $12.1 million. For the full 2013 fiscal year, Ruby Tuesday's same-restaurant sales decreased 1% at company-owned locations and dropped 2.1% at franchise restaurants. Adjusted income fell to $13.9 million compared to $29.3 million in fiscal 2012.
As bad as the results look, there are signs that the company may be able to turn things around. First, a new CEO was appointed. JJ Buettgen, formerly Chief Marketing Officer of Darden Restaurants, came on board in December 2012 and seems to be putting together a highly experienced management team that he is familiar with. Just about all of the recently added top executives looked to have had connections with Darden.
Mr. Buettgen also seems to be putting a good strategy into place. He aims to drive traffic by focusing on innovative foods that are attractively priced in conjunction with a compelling advertising campaign. He also seems committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet, prudently allocating capital, and utilizing excess cash for debt reductions and opportunistic share repurchases.
Ruby Tuesday's stock may show noticeable upside if these steps can deliver any improvement. Reasonable business value looks to be around $10 a share based on a typical industry multiple of 12 times with sales of $1.23 billion and $48 million in earnings at a 3.9% profit margin.
The restaurant sector is worth watching. One can usually find plenty of interesting stories and maybe an occasional good value. From steady dividend-payers like Darden to smaller turnarounds like Ruby Tuesday, restaurant stocks can often offer something for any type of investor.

text: You're out in the car when you get a flat tire. You have the tools and the skills, so you pull out the spare to change it yourself only to find that your spare is flat. Now you're stranded until AAA or someone you call can make it out to you. If you had the Automatic Cordless Tire Inflator, you wouldn't have to wait for help. Just keep the battery charged up using your car's power outlet, and you'll have the tools you need to get your tire re-inflated and yourself back on the road. It measures in psi, bars, or kpi, and it will automatically stop inflating when you've reached the desired pressure. It quickly inflates car tires to 36psi, and it can inflate a bicycle tire to 58psi in one minute. It comes with adaptors so you can inflate toys or "recreation balls" (hope they mean yoga balls…), and it even has an LED light to illuminate the tire air valve to make things easier when you're working in the dark. It's $89.99 at Hammacher Schlemmer.

HOUSTON The Kings have had a logjam in the backcourt all season.
Coach Keith Smart tried using three point guards and shuffling time among three shooting guards, and he juggled minutes at small forward.
That didn't yield the desired results, but lately, Smart has been going with a small lineup a very small lineup at times.
That could mean as many as four guards on the floor at the same time and no fewer than three players shorter than 6-foot-5.
In Friday's loss at San Antonio, Toney Douglas, Jimmer Fredette and Marcus Thornton played at the same time off the bench in the second quarter.
The trio helped Sacramento score 37 points in that quarter. The Kings also gave up 37 points, but the flow on offense helped them stay in the game.
"When we're playing so bad, I have to go to a unit that I think can give us some energy to get back in the basketball game, and so far, that group has done that," Smart said.
Pairing the trio with Patrick Patterson at power forward and Jason Thompson at center as Smart did for part of the second quarter Friday allows the Kings to play at a fast pace and force the defense to scramble to find perimeter shooters.
Patterson provides a fourth player with three-point range, and Thompson's steady shooting means every player on the court is a legitimate scoring threat and can run the floor.
"When we get the rebound, everyone else is out (on the fast break)," Thornton said. "We've got three or four ballhandlers, so it's not you coming back to get the ball. You just fill the lanes and run."
Smart's concern about overusing this group is how it matches up on defense. If the opponent positions its perimeter players in the post, he worries about exposing his smaller guards defensively.
"It's all about the matchup in the game to where you don't have to extend yourself because you're going to be involved in rotations already," Smart said. "And if you have to give a team another opportunity to try and post you and force you into rotations, it becomes a disadvantage for you."
Smart likes how the offense operates when the Kings play small.
"One thing our guys have been able to do is have three ballhandlers, three guys that can make plays off the dribble and three guys that can make plays up the court," he said.
When the Kings struggle on offense, they often end up driving the ball into the lane when it's congested and forcing up tough shots.
When there are at least three shooters on the floor, that's not easy to do, and Thompson or DeMarcus Cousins can operate near the basket with more freedom.
Smart said as long as Isaiah Thomas or Douglas is pushing the pace on offense and pressuring the opposing point guard, the Kings' version of small ball can be effective.
Fredette liked how the group functioned in San Antonio.
"We were spreading the floor," he said. "Guys were sharing the ball well and hitting shots and getting some stops. I think we were doing a good job of spreading the floor and spacing them out and make them not be in the paint and pack it in so much, and we were hitting our jump shots."
Thornton said little time is spent with the small group together in practice. But when the Kings use it in games, it manages to come together quickly.
"It's easy to play like that when you have guys that are unselfish like Toney and Isaiah, Tyreke (Evans) and those guys," Thornton said. "It makes my job easier just go out and run."

Can i creat a view with only java code?
May be this is a stupid topic, if so, i apologize for this...
As you can see, i am the new user of couchbase. I am curious about can i create a view with only java code?
I found this:
"To create view, you can use either the Admin Console edite,
use the REST API for design documents, or use one of the client
librarys that support view manager."
What's the more informations about one of the client librarys that support view manager?
Is that mean i can use java code? if so, how can i use for it?
Yes you can, in the Java SDK 1.1.0 we have added the support to "Design Document".
This means you can create Views from a Java application. Here s very basic sample code :
DesignDocument designDocument = new DesignDocument("Beer_application"); String viewName = "by_name"; String map = "function (doc, meta) {\n" + " emit(doc.name);\n" + "}"; String reduce = "_count"; ViewDesign viewDesign = new ViewDesign(viewName, map, reduce); designDocument.getViews().add(viewDesign); try { couchbaseClient.asyncCreateDesignDoc(designDocument); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
I have created a bog post about this:

The Remade in Switzerland by Christopher Raeburn Cocoon Blouson for autumn/winter 11.
Re-appropriating and deconstructing fabrics originally used to create sleeping bags for the Swiss Army, this unique jacket is an innovative re-creation from the mind of Christopher Raeburn, commissioned by the iconic Swiss brand Victorinox.
While researching the collection Christopher found two types of sleeping bag material: the first was a warm padded material used for the sleeping bag itself; the other was a tough waterproof material used to create a weather-proof outer layer used to cover the first. With this jacket the waterproof material is utilised on the hood, across the shoulder yoke and at the elbow.
Homage is paid to the sleeping bag by the fact that the blouson folds up into a sleeping-bag-style roll, and is secured by two straps that, when not in use, button onto the back of the jacket. Further warmth is added by wool cuffs, created from re-used Swiss Army jumpers.
Swiss through-and-through, the zips are Riri and a red Swiss cross shield sits proudly on the left sleeve. It is actually a legal requirement that only products made in Switzerland can display this shield in red, and Christopher is proud to see this emblem on his collection.
Finishing touches are added by the Victorinox branded press studs, which are used throughout, and warm woollen cuffs made from re-used Swiss Army jumpers. Finally, a horseshoe nail print is used on the jacket lining a features that became the symbol of the collection for Christopher.
Re-made in Switzerland, this piece is a limited edition of 100. The polished metal plate sewn onto the lining identifies the pieces individual number.

Freshman Ja;Breena Gardner paced the Pomeroys with 18 points while both Chelsea Weaver and Sierra Lopez collected double-doubles. Weaver had 12 points and 10 rebounds and Lopez collected 11 points and 12 rebounds. The loss drops SMWC to 6-9 on the season.

When You're Not in the Mood
Waking up the Libido
According to Debbie Mandel, stress-management specialist and author of Turn On Your Inner Light: Fitness for Body, Mind and Soul, marriages can survive a temporary libido dip. "When women are stressed and busy, they feel fatigued and irritable—add to that mix fewer hours of sleep. Intimacy in the bedroom is viewed as another thing on her to-do list, and because the timing is the end of the day, it will be the one on the list to go," she says.
Although it sounds unromantic, Mandel says intimacy may need to be scheduled. "Get a babysitter and go out as a couple. Dress for the occasion. Think of your partner as someone you want to attract. See him through the eyes of another woman who desires him and not think of him as a parasitic husband/father who doesn't do as much as you around the house," Mandel says.
Looking for more ideas to put you in the mood? Mandel offers couples the following tips for fostering intimacy:
- Try and visualize a romantic scenario. Rehearse it in your mind. "Sex begins in the mind," she explains.
- Tap into your five senses to set the stage in the bedroom. "Take a relaxing candlelit bath with fragrances and wine. If you don't have time for that, take a hot shower and let it relax your muscles and give yourself a massage in your favorite fragrant crème," Mandel says.
- Try cuddling and not speaking. Connect as a couple without any pressure.
- Exercise daily from 15 to 30 minutes, preferably using large muscle groups to release testosterone in your body which raises libido. "You will shed stress, release endorphins, feel energized and look better! So, the next step is to get physical with your husband," explains Mandel.
Mandel points out that research shows that once you become more intimate, it becomes more natural and your desire increases.

With a goal of bringing people together through music, the Tutti, Love, and Harmony concerts celebrate four years in Weill Recital Hall. This year's program includes Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 2, Mozart's Piano Concerto, K. 488, and Bach's Cello Concerto in C Minor. Featured soloist Justin Yu makes his second appearance in Weill Recital Hall. The six-year-old cellist has performed around the world, including a concert at the Oriental Art Center in China and a New York Mets pre-game show.]]>
From Director:
It is always difficult to compose an arrangement for such a well-known song. Especially when it is written for a very young group such as the Joyous Ensemble. I have tried to incorporate more elements from different music genres while keeping the classical flavor. I hope that this type of mixture will bring delightfulness to listener's ears.
The sound recording portion was challenging because of the size of the instruments the Joyous Ensemble children play on. As gifted as they all are, it is very difficult to get great quality of sound from 1/8 instruments. Nevertheless, all the children are amazingly gifted. On the day of the taping, the temperature was close to 100 degree. I was very worried that the heat might effect everyone's performance. To my amazement, they did not miss a beat. This is truly a wonderful group of 7 year olds! They showed artistry and maturity well beyond their years. It was an amazing experience to work with them.
Special thanks to engineers Robert, Taekyu and the Joyous Ensemble parents. .
While we were editing the footage, I accidentally saw the news about Syria on TV… I just could not get the image of those Syrian kids out of my mind. I strongly felt that I should do something. This inspired me to dedicate this video to all the children in the world. Let's pray for more music and more peace. Let's all believe that happiness is at the end of the Rainbow for everyone.]]>

Bonser v. Greinke: News and lineupsPosted on April 21st, 2007 – 12:44 PM
By La Velle
Jason Bartlett, who missed a couple plays on Friday, will not start today. "He had a little bit of a rough time out there," Gardy said. The manager thinks Bartlett is still feeling the effects of a sore groin muscle.
Luis Castillo and Rondell White have no idea of when they'll play. I'll just leave it at that.
Anthony Swarzak was very remorseful about his postitive drug test, as he tells the New Britain Herald.

History Channel is running out of tie-ins. Why don't they just dig up some of the older and new materiel that isn't seen on TV? Show us some rare footage. History Channel sucks. They dumb down every topic they do and play to the lowest denominator- ever notice how they repeat a lot in each segment? Too cheap to hire researchers and writers is my guess.

OK kids…while we sit around waiting for the news to break about who Ilya Kovalchuk will be traded to and which player(s) may be heading our way, here is a couple of question to ponder. First, given the news yesterday that Don Waddell informed Kovalchuk that he'd be working out a trade in the coming days, what happens if such a deal is not finalized by Friday night when the Thrashers play in D.C.? Certainly you can't suit him up to play knowing his future is not with this team…right? Does John Anderson sits him and dresses Kozlov?
I'll be curious to see if he's at practice Thursday morning…or even make the flight to Washington.
If so…awkard!
I think there can be a logical argument made to sit him now that he's been informed of the pending trade.
And next…and this is really the main topic of the day…once Ilya Kovalchuk departs and and Thrasherville enters into the A.K. era, (After Kovalchuk), who do you think should don the 'C' in Thrasherville?
Who should wear the 'C' once the Thrashers begin life A.K.?
Total Voters: 286
I suppose it would be natural to first consider the alternate captains…so lets' begin with them, shall we?
Ron Hainsey: He's currently in the second year of a four year deal and from what I've heard from those in the know he's fairly well liked and respected by his teammates. He's also not been shy about getting into the face of a player that might need it.
Zach Bogosian: Well, I guess the Thrashers organization is going to soon need a new "face of the franchise", and Bogosian could be a pretty good one to go with. But does the team want to pin such a responsibility on a 19-year old kid…especially in the wake of what is turning out to be a fairly sloppy split up?
Slava Kozlov: A year and a half ago I opined that Kozlov was deserving of the 'C'…but given the fact that he's probably in his last days as a Thrasher, this probably isn't the route to go. Plus, even though he is very much looked up to by his peers…fact is that he's always seemed unwilling to take on such a role.
Colby Armstrong: I like this guy…seems to always be having fun and having a good time. However, given his UFA status this summer, chances are he could be sent packing soon. But even if he remains, I think is he's too much of a "frat boy" type to be taken seriously as a team captain. That's not a knock on Army…that was me at that age.
Now with that said, here are three other possibile names that I'd like to have taken into consideration.
Rich Peverley: This fan favorite always comes up when I discuss any future Thrashers captain. He is hard-working and reliable. The 27-year old agreed to remain a Thrasher for two more seasons beyond this current one…signing a $2.6 million deal last October. Could you imagine…going from a waiver-wire pickup to team captain in a matter of about 13 months?
Marty Reasoner:Unlike Kovalchuk, Marty jumped at the chance to remain in Atlanta…signing a two-year deal in June of last year. Reasoner is as solid a guy one could hope for and his play on the ice matches his integrity in the locker room. Personally, I though he should have gotten an 'A' last fall.
Johan Hedberg:Yes, I know…he's a goalie. But I cannot think of a better way of rewarding this man's service in Thrasherville over the past several years then to honor him with the captain's 'C'…even if it might be for just the remaining couple months of the season. Besides, this team may need the Moose's maturity and stability to help them through the transition into life A.K.
Alright, those are my seven possibilities…which one would you like see wearing the 'C'? If you have another suggestion, well then…as Ross Perot once said…I'm all ears.
Upcoming Events
With all of the hubbub that appears ready to go down around here, let's also take note of some upcoming Thrashers events that are scheduled to take place.
First off…Our friend Cup Guy, the fan you see carrying around the 'Stanley Cup' at home Thrashers games, has come up with a fantastic way for Thrashers fans to support the relief efforts in Haiti as well as attend a game. He's procured 300 tickets for the March 7th game against the Hurricanes, a Sunday afternoon game that starts at 5:00. The tickets are in sections 312-314….normally $42…however, the Thrashers have made them available for just $20 with the proceeds going to The Red Cross as they assist those suffering in Haiti.
"I am teaming up with the Atlanta Thrashers Fan Club to also help promote this game", Cup Guy told me recently. "We are trying to secure donation buckets inside the arena. My personal goal is to raise $5,000. I am going to write Don Waddell and see if we can get the team to wear their 3rd jerseys. I want this event to be 'Red Out' which are the colors of the Red Cross. So if you could mention in the blog to wear your third jerseys if they have them or anything that is red".
Those who would like to purchase these tickets may contact him at 678-371-9960 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
Now this was a great idea, Cup Guy. Hats off to you for piloting this wonderful effort.
There is another great TJ's Thrashers viewing party slated for Saturday night February 13. Atlanta will be up in Chicago to play the Balckhawks and game time is 8:00 pm. As always, Tim and Mark Ecclestone have extended 15% discounts to all who attend the extravaganza.
TJ's is located at 2880 Holcomb Bridge Road in Alpharetta.
Also remember the TJ's Party Bus event scheduled for March 20 when the Flyers are in town. $55.00 buys you tickets in the lower bowl…last time it was section 119…a seat on the bus, drinks and chance to win prizes as we travel down to Philips. Bus will leave at 5:00 pm and return to TJ's parking lot after the game.
Contact Karin Beckman at 404-878-3781 or email@example.com
Speaking of TJ's…they will also be hosting a Super Bowl Party at their place. There will be an open bar and complementary buffet and prizes after each score…including $100 cash winners. They will also have Thrashers tickets to be raffled off as well.
$40.00 in advance and $50.00 at the door.
Reservations can be made by calling 770-552-7700.
And finally…Fresh off of their Nashville Trip-a-palooza, the Thrashers Fan Club is preparing for it's next out-of-town excursion. This one will be to Raleigh, North Carolina when the Thrashers take on the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday March 27.
Check out the details here at the Fan Club's web site and make your plans accordingly.

I'm going with rugged veteran Ron Hainsey. I accept he's not the best player and overpaid to boot. However, he takes the "A" quite seriously. He calls out others for poor performance and will even criticize himself. He's not fooling himself about the team's situation, but he still does his job.
February 4th, 2010
9:50 am
According to one of my NJ connections….."supposedly Atlanta's GM and assistant GM have scouted the Devils last two games(including the minor league game last night)"

Peverly and Reasoner – Co-captains.
Slater- A

February 4th, 2010

According to NHL.com the Rangers are in the hunt for Kovy. Dudley was scouting a Ranger's AHL team on Wed.
February 4th, 2010
10:03 am
I forgot Toby — he could probably handle the A. He does exemplify all of the characteristics necessary — but, like Nic Havelid, he doesn't believe in calling attention to himself, so he'll never take the C.
February 4th, 2010
10:05 am
Hey G:
Kari is easily the best of the 3 Atlanta goaltenders(?)
You lost ALL credibility with that insane remark! Johan Moose Hedberg will forgive you. He is that kind of a guy! A captain type of fellow. Hint hint John Petrino!
February 4th, 2010
10:10 am
I vote Peverley for the "C".
February 4th, 2010
10:12 am
Start with Callahan and Dubinsky but no Redden.
Good to hear that Dudley is the talent evaluator
February 4th, 2010
10:19 am
In order, my preferences: Marty, Peverley, Zach…
Absolutely no to: Colby, Kozzy
I like the idea of Moose wearing the "C", but I'm not sure I love the idea. I would certainly like to see an "A" on the sweaters of players like Kane and Slater. I'm drawn to the hustle guys who don't mind doing the dirty work.
A fish rots from the head down or it swims head first. I say go with someone who is swimming.
February 4th, 2010
10:21 am
As far as length of service with the team, plus committment, and being an overall likeable guy why not Jimmy Slater. I think he is the perfect type of example player to be a "C". I know he was scratched for part of the season, but I really like his effort, and I think he would be a good captain. I have always like him. Anyone else agree?
February 4th, 2010
10:25 am
Your specific question was "who do you think should don the 'C' in Thrasherville," not who should be named captain.
My vote goes to Reasoner. Moose is not likely to be here long and Hainsey does not have the personality for it. Army and Kozzy are gone in a few months and Bogo isn't ready. Maybe he earns it next season after Reasoner's contract runs out.
If you don;t give it to Reasoner, give him an 'A' and run without a captain until next season.
February 4th, 2010
10:28 am
Give the "C" to the first player that lays Waddell out.
February 4th, 2010
10:29 am
Hainsey does not have the personality for it
Hmmm, not sure I agree with that one…Hainsey is the one who usually does all the national media interviews (he's been on XM a number of times). I think he has the personality for it, his play sometimes doesn't match his personality.
February 4th, 2010
10:34 am
WBF – The look on the women's face when Reg tells what will happen to her son is classic. There's so many memorable scenes in Slapshot, but that's one of my favorites also. Along with "They brought their @#$(*^! toys".
Want the Thrash organist to play Lady of Spain.
February 4th, 2010
10:44 am
Hainsey is already wearing the A. He is signed for years and can speak to/for the players, coaches and the media. Obvious choice…hopefully they will make a quick decision instead of waffling like they usually do.
February 4th, 2010
10:44 am
I just think Hainsey is a little better suited as an 'A.' He's a likable guy, but a little too much so for the 'C.' That said, since you may not give anyone a 'C' for the rest of the year, why not name Moose the Captain since it's mostly an honorary title. You can still give Reasoner the 'A' in that case and maybe Kane as well. Three road 'A's, three home 'A's.
February 4th, 2010
10:44 am
Lol, have you ever seen a franchise like the Thrashers??? I'm trying to remember the last time in the NHL a team sent a player home because he'll be traded???? I'm flabergasted…I've seen in the nfl and mlb, but not in the NHL???? Not us, DW you're a complete and total joke. If you were surprised that kovy asked for as much as he did, then shame on you. If you knew his demands were this high in the offseason, then why wasn't he dealt then???? This is going to be laughable. We're not going to get anything worth value for Kovy, a top 10 player in the league. UNFREAKINGBELIEVABLE. Kovy you lied, along with DW and the ASG.
WBF, me thinks that the Olmpics for the USA team will be short, so (for the first time) I disagree w/you. I think Miller is going to end up getting some rest during the break and he'll need it unless the sabres get some additional scoring before the trade deadline. I suspect they'll bring in a low rent sniper to help out.
For captain, I hope its Pevs. He looks vocal and at least is signed for a couple more years.
February 4th, 2010

Is there an etheral conspiracy against Atlanta professional sports teams? Could be.
The following is meant as entertainment only so no tar and feathers please. Just a few interesting "coincidences".
Thrasher Ilya Kovalchuk captain. Falcon quarterback captain.
IK consensus premiere player. QB consensus premiere player.
Injury put IK on sidelines. Injury put QB on sidelines.
IK wanted ridiculous salary. QB signed for ridiculous salary.
IK selfish. QB selfish.
IK not completely honest with fans. QB outright lied to fans.
IK covets individual stats. QB coveted individual stats.
IK broke hockey stick after being booed at home. QB gave middle finger salute to fans (despite revisionist history to contrary) after being booed at home.
IK followers still support him. QB followers now wear green.
IK split team fan base. QB split team fan base.
IK play became uninspired. QB made no bones about fact that he quit on teammates.
IK had no intentions of signing new contract. Legal problems forced QB off team.
Probably some more but those are enough for now.
Just thought some of you might be interested as many of us keep track of all Atlanta pro teams to some extent.
Thanks for listening.

Spud -from CV's blog. Rangers sent Kotalik home telling him a trade was nearing. But, for the most part I agree with your point. Think the Kotalik situation was rare.
February 4th, 2010
10:52 am
I think Waddell should wear the "C." It could be his final move in ruining this franchise, and it truly is about the only title he hasn't held with us.
February 4th, 2010
10:56 am
Just as I suspected…Don Waddell is Thrash
February 4th, 2010
10:57 am
guys, it's common for teams to hold guys out that are being traded. It was one of the signs that we always looked for at trade deadline time (the healthy scratch list) to see who was on the block from which teams.
The Thrashers on the other hand tell Kovy he's being traded, then send him for practice today. Bizarro world. Didn't we even have a guy break a leg in practice this year or last? Was telling Kovy he's going to be traded some kind of desperation ploy from Waddell to get him to sign?
February 4th, 2010
11:02 am
Can't be a goalie, and here is why…….they don't play every game. He gonna come off the bench to talk to the refs? I saw we rotate it. Let Peverley, Hainsey, Reasoner and maybe even Armstrong all get a run at it, and when we come back for training camp, you let the team duke it out for the HONOR of being the C. Training camp would be a good time to find out just who WANTS to lead this team. The C NEVER should have been given to anyone for any other reason than they are the TRUE LEADER of this team, 110%.
February 4th, 2010
11:02 am
Nobody likes Slava more than me…well, some do I guess…but we need to make the playoffs, that is the goal. Slava is a great guy and a real team player but he is not captain material, imho. We need someone that will kick players in the arse when needed and someone comfortable working with the press. And a captain that will forcefully "discuss" player concerns with the coaches if needed. Slava is very old-school and might not voice his players thoughts about the team even if the situation called for it. Agan, imho.
February 4th, 2010
11:10 am
DTWOO-on toys
"I'd rather have them playing with their toys then playing ……… ……….".
Spud-the U.S. getting knocked out early is something I had not considered. Based on your thoughts, Miller may indeed get his rest. The Sabres need Kovy more than most teams in the mix. You think maybe, just maybe they might….? NAH!
Stendec-I think you are enjoying today's lunacy way too much. I admire your consistency.
February 4th, 2010
11:16 am
I have not posted in some time. I have still been reading but since the hockey package isn't offered in my area I don't get to see games unless they play Boston, so I have been reduced to following them through my fantasy hockey leagues and box scores. On the rare occasion that they win, I will watch the highlights on Yahoo video.
That being said, I am very disappointed and disgusted. Each side of the Kovy debacle gets there share of the blame I suppose, but the root of the issue is ownership. It is so clear that they are trying desperately to sell the team. In these economic times, I doubt we are going to see some gallant figure ride in on a white horse and buy the Thrashers and save hockey in Atlanta. Which is really really sad.
I have watched this organization grow from a seed into a weed on Atlanta's sports landscape. It doesn't make any sense why an NHL team can't be a viable profitable sport in a major city such as Atlanta. Half the city are transplants! There are like 5 million people in the city and surrounding areas.
As much as everyone likes to say that the problem is Waddell (which he does deserve blame) it still falls on ownership. I hope they don't sell the team like the Braves did. To an ownership group that was just looking for a tax loss. Where is Ted when we need him? Better yet, a true hockey fan. Problem is, any true hockey fan with ownership money, doesn't live in Atlanta, and will move the team.
Let me offically start the rumor that the Thrashers will be the new Hartford Whalers.
My prediction for Mr. Kovy. He gets packaged with Kari in a blockbuster deal with Boston.
This will be the deathstroke for Blueland…and that is a very hard thing to take.
February 4th, 2010
11:28 am
KANE FOR CAPTAIN!!!! I officially change my vote for captain after thinking it over for a few moments. I say make Kane captain, and before you skip over the rest of this here is WHY I think he would be a good choice……He has BY FAR been the hardest worker out there night after night after night. Sure it's because he is young and has to prove himself, so he leaves it on the ice every night. Already a vital part of penalty kill….should be on PP too in my opinion. I don't think he should hold onto the C into next year, but I think handing it to him now would send A STRONG MESSAGE to the team. Shape up and PLAY SOME HARD FOUGHT HOCKEY THE REST OF THE SEASON. Watching him play, I have no doubt Kane can actually be the C in his 3rd year if he continues the way he is, so throw it on him and watch how he reacts, and let the "VETERANS" remember why they play the game and STEP IT UP so a rookie doesn't show them up again. That would throw the team into chaos I am sure, but they need a wakeup call and the COACH and GM are too scared or too buddy buddy with them to make them work hard.
February 4th, 2010
11:29 am
Buzilla in CT – Could not agree more that ownership is the real issue, but I'm still skeptical about the viability of moving this team. I just don;t think it's in the cards. If Phoenix can survive with there massive issues, I think the NHL will keep this team in ATL. Also, while there are plenty of towns in Canada that would support a team, the economic reality of Canada is that there is not enough money to support another NHL team. The teams there now are being subsidized by American teams and have been since the beginning of the NHL. Lest we forget, only two of the Original 6 were Canadian teams.

How about getting a "FIRE WADDELL" night going? Might be the most attended game of the season, and we can chant it the whole game….maybe that would bring enough attention from outside to get it done?

When the Thrashers win (in Atlanta or Hamilton) everyone will understand why Ilya Kovalchuk was not paid $10 million per season for a decade! Agent screwed his own self as well as IK. Although his percentage of contract would make agent millionaire many times over. Such is life in professional sports! ++STENDEC++

New Jersey will probably be offering us Brian Rolston and Danius Zubrus… can't get excited about that… which means, it's probably going to happen.
I'd like to see Phoenix step in and offer Peter Mueller and Keith Yandle.

i agree every night should be, but if we actually got 1 game and made it that….could fill the place up with all the mad fans, even those who have run away, to make a statement to the owners and the league. Get signs and post them everywhere, wave it on flags, hell Id even get a plain t shirt and write it on it to wear over my Thrasher jersey LMAO

Reasoner should get the C for sure. I said this before Kovy got it. Anyone who says otherwise is obviously demented.
But Slater wearing the C is funnier…

11:56 am
I'm ready for closure on this. Apparently at practice this morning Kovy said an extension with Atlanta was still possible. What??
Various rumor mills are reporting a mystery team that is in on the hunt for Kovy as a rental. Wonder who that might be? Wouldn't surprise me to see the Pens in the mix. LOL – Maybe we'll get Dupuis back.
They are also saying Chicago has backed off – I'm surprised by that. I would have expected with their cap issues that this would be a good chance for them to dump salary and pick up a big time scorer for a cup run.

This is a Deal between Thrashers Managment and Kovy:
The Thrashers offered $10 million a year for three, five or seven years, according to agent Jay Grossman. They offered $101 million but over 12 years ($8.41 million average).
Did he ask too much? Is any team will pay him $8.5 per year. IF we lost Kovy it will be BIGGEST Mistake for Oweners.

Reasoner should have it….
What's your wish list of possible "return" for #17??? Mine goes something like…
Philly: VanRimsdyk(spl?) and Giroux and one "comer" type prospect from the minors and two mid-round picks for #17 & Moose & Joe Crabb -they'll want us to take Danielle from them for salary reasons-I", not sure how that would balance out.
NYR: Dubinsky is a MUST in any scenario. Slats is clearly going to want us to take on Redden and his millstone of a contract-I'm actually ok with that, just get his stiff-necked self to get back on HGH and it'll look like a steal. They've shown that backing up Hank is a challenge area, so sending the Moose makes sense and will allow us to get some decent picks and perhaps a "maybe" guy in the minors
San Jose: – Ah ha! didn't think you'd see them on this list didja? Anyway, I think that Wilson may be *so* consumed with not laying an egg in the playoffs-plus the whole dance they've had with Marleau may make this trade more do-able than we thought, plus it's a nice fantasy for me to see #15 & the russian cannon on the same squad. anyway; Marleau and Couture their 3rd-round pick for #17, Crabb our 2nd-round pick and Afinegenov
Just some thoughts, but methinks we'll see #17 go north of the border…. I'm so disappointed
Big ups to thrasher fans for flooding the talkshows this morning.
February 4th, 2010
12:21 pm
I wrote an open letter to Kovy in a recent Rawhide blog. I still stand by it. Teams trade best players all the time. 99 was traded. I hope Kovy stays in the NHL. We're the Expos of hockey, people. When Kovy comes back into town, lets do the classy thing and root for him. Yes, Waddell should be fired. He should have been fired years ago. This is not the end of this team in our fair city. Think of it as a new beginning.
Hockey will NEVER BE the first or second love of this town even when its good. It's frustrating being a Thrashers fan, it truly is. I want to see 17 here, I do. I still want Savard here. I still want Hossa here. But the Thrashers are staying here. The whole league is having problems. I mean the Isles and the Blue Jackets come to mind as teams that are having huge problems.

Per McKenzie again: "It is also now confirmed that Tim Gleason is the replacement for Mike Komisarek."

NEW YORK, Jan. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- She's going to be the host of the Oscars in early March, she's returning to the sea as Dory in her own movie in 2015 and, for the second year in a row, Ellen DeGeneres is America's Favorite TV personality. DeGeneres has been on the top ten favorite TV personality list since her talk show started in 2003, and this is the third time she's appeared at the top of the list. Remaining at number two this year is NCIS's head agent, Mark Harmon, and despite a year which saw the host take a summer sabbatical, The Daily Show's Jon Stewart remains at number three.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100517/NY06256LOGO)
These are some of the results of The Harris Poll® of 2,311 U.S. adults surveyed online between December 11 and 17, 2013 by Harris Interactive. (Full findings, including data tables, can be found here)
Seventh Heaven
The seven personalities rounding out the top 10 are four more talk show hosts, two sitcom actors and one drama star. America's favorite physicist, The Big Bang Theory's Sheldon Cooper – or rather the actor who portrays him, Jim Parsons – moves up one spot to number four this year. And, in his last year (again!) as the host of The Tonight Show, Jay Leno drops one spot, to number five.
Sure to cause some competition in the halls of Comedy Central, Stephen Colbert returns to the top 10 at number six after dropping off last year. Moving up three spots to number seven is the current Blue Bloods star who will always also be Thomas Magnum to millions, Tom Selleck, and retaining her number eight spot is Oprah Winfrey. Rounding out the top 10, in a tie for the ninth position, are two newcomers to the list – Robin Williams, whose Mork and Mindy predates the list but who is currently back on TV with The Crazy Ones, and Steve Harvey, who does double duty on television screens these days as host of his own talk show as well as host of Family Feud.
My Three Sons
With one returning personality and two newcomers on the top 10 list, that means three TV personalities, all of whom are talk show hosts, have dropped out of the top 10. Fox's Bill O'Reilly, after four years in the top ten (including last year at number six), drops off the top 10, as does Anderson Cooper after his debut in the top 10 last year at number seven. And after 13 years in a row on the top ten list, TV's longest serving late night host, David Letterman, drops out of the top ten after being number 9 last year.
Normally, there are a lot of different chart-toppers for different groups. This year, while there are some differences, it's largely Ellen's list and everyone else is lucky to be part of it. While men say Jon Stewart is their favorite, for women it is Ellen DeGeneres. The three youngest generations all say Ellen is their favorite TV personality, while for Matures Mark Harmon is number one.
All four regions of the country say Ellen is their favorite, and she is the favorite for both households with and without children. By education, Ellen is number one for all except for those with a post-graduate degree, who name Stephen Colbert as their number one TV personality.
There are some partisan and political philosophy differences. Mark Harmon's tough agent appears to resonate with Conservatives and Republicans, as he is the top TV personality among these groups. Ellen, however, is number one for Democrats and Liberals, as well as among Independents and Moderates.

This Harris Poll was conducted online within the United States December 11 and 17, 2013 among 2,311 adults (aged 18 and over). Figures for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, region and household income were weighted where necessary to bring them into line with their actual proportions in the population. Propensity score weighting was also used to adjust for respondents' propensity to be online.
All sample surveys and polls, whether or not they use probability sampling, are subject to multiple sources of error which are most often not possible to quantify or estimate, including sampling error, coverage error, error associated with nonresponse, error associated with question wording and response options, and post-survey weighting and adjustments. Therefore, Harris Interactive avoids the words "margin of error" as they are misleading. All that can be calculated are different possible sampling errors with different probabilities for pure, unweighted, random samples with 100% response rates. These are only theoretical because no published polls come close to this ideal.
Respondents for this survey were selected from among those who have agreed to participate in Harris Interactive surveys. The data have been weighted to reflect the composition of the adult population. Because the sample is based on those who agreed to participate in the Harris Interactive panel, no estimates of theoretical sampling error can be calculated.
These statements conform to the principles of disclosure of the National Council on Public Polls.

Gene Simmons, Shannon Tweed tie knot in wedding that feels 'staged'
WITH BILL ZWECKER October 2, 2011 8:12PM
Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed (pictured in August) got married just three days before the return of their reality show. | FRAZER HARRISON~GETTY IMAGES
Article Extras
Updated: January 23, 2012 3:44AM
Just in time for the return of his "Family Jewels" reality show Tuesday on A&E, Gene Simmons and longtime girlfriend Shannon Tweed became Mr. and Mrs. in a lavish wedding at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
While the 400 guests reveled in the made-for-TV ceremony Saturday night (slated for a special episode of "Family Jewels" later this month), a sharp-tongued observer said, "It all had such a feeling of being totally staged. … A lot of people at the wedding were whispering that if Gene didn't have that reality show, this wouldn't have happened — especially given their recent problems."
† Simmons clearly didn't let any snarky comments get him down. In front of a guest list that included Hugh Hefner, Bill Maher and Simmons' Kiss bandmates, the rocker and Tweed — who have been together for 28 years and are parents to two children — exchanged vows they wrote themselves. Though long-plagued by tales of infidelity, Simmons admitted to "Entertainment Tonight," that it "is time for me to grow up. I'm 62. I've been doing a lot of wacky stuff for an awfully long time … and there's nobody I've ever said 'I love you' to. … But I love Shannon with all my heart and all my soul, and always will."
DIVORCE DOCKET: After 11 years of marriage and two children, "X-Men" star James Marsden's wife Linda Linde has filed for divorce. While the actor's publicist calls the split "a mutual decision" and says the couple "are committed to raising their kids together and remain great friends," a Hollywood friend of Linde's zinged Sunday, "I think Linda finally got tired of being married to a guy who looked in the mirror a lot more than she did!"
IT'S HAPPENING: As first reported here, Tareq Salahi is moving ahead with plans for a reality show, but TMZ adds a new twist: the supposed title.
"Seducing Salahi" reportedly will be a dating show taped at the ex-White House party crasher's Virginia winery, with 14 women vying for his affection.
† It's not clear if Salahi's new pal, equally despicable media magnet Michael Lohan, will be involved in putting this scary deal together.
JUST LIKE DAD? There's an eerie similarity between Dr. Conrad Murray — currently on trial for manslaughter for the the death of Michael Jackson — and his own dad, who was also a physician.
Dr. Rawle Andrews, Murray's biological father, with whom he was not reconciled until he was 25, died in 2001. Between 1994 and 1999, Andrews' medical license was tightly restricted after a Texas Medical Board investigation found the previously well-respected Houston physcian "prescribed control substances with addictive potential for extended time without adequate supervision."
Sound familiar?
SPORTS SHORT: Hmmm. Mike North has been hanging out at U.S. Cellular Field lately — and I'm hearing it's about a lot more than just watching the last few games of the White Sox's 2011 season. Sources say the veteran broadcaster has the ear of Jerry Reinsdorf, and North was seen huddling behind closed doors with other Sox honchos Friday, reportedly about more than just a radio gig.
TV TALK: "Arrested Development," that wonderfully quirky sitcom that developed a cultlike following of fans, is making a comeback — five years after it was cancelled.
Series creator Mitch Hurwitz announced Sunday at the New Yorker Festival that he has plans for a "limited" season he will shop to various networks, leading into a feature film based on the show.
Among the actors expected to participate are Michael Cera, whose career has skyrocketed since his days on "Arrested Development," and Jason Bateman, whose star power was revived by the show.
TRYING AGAIN: Elizabeth Hurley is giving marriage another shot. The actress and Estee Lauder spokesmodel got engaged Saturday to Australian cricket star Shane Warne in Scotland — only 10 months after the couple started dating, and only three months since Hurley's divorce to Indian jillionaire Arun Nayar became final.
SEEN ON THE SCENE: Jenna Dewan was spied getting a facial at Cellular Intelligence, before joining her co-stars from "The Playboy Club" — Naturi Naughton, Leah Renee and Wes Ramsey— at Hub 51 and then Rockit Bar & Grill, where they celebrated Renee's birthday. … Another Hub 51 and Studio Paris sighting was veteran TV actress Tracey Gold. … Patrick Kane had his Blackhawks fans happy to see him supping at Sunda.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Congrats to Chicago Q head chef Leeann Whippen for winning the regional competition of the Sam's Club National BBQ Tour in Laurel, Md. Now Whippen heads to Bentonville, Ark., for the main event — and a shot at the $100,000 top prize.

Vance Bunker, the lobsterman accused of the Matinicus shooting, is a local hero who helped save three men after their tugboat sank one brutally cold night in 1992.
The air that Jan. 16 was minus 4 F — so cold a thick layer of sea smoke hung over Penobscot Bay. Though stars were visible overhead, visibility across the water was very smoky. The wind was blowing 40 mph when the 75-foot tug Harkness, chugging back to Mount Desert Island, began taking on water off Matinicus.
The lobster fishery has had some very, very good years
— but also some tough ones — from the mid-1980s right up to 2007, when lobsters were fetching as much as $12 a pound wholesale at the dock. This summer, lobstermen have been getting $2.50 a pound, a 19-year low.
A seaworthy boat handles well, is stable, sheds water quickly, and has plenty of reserve buoyancy
A seaworthy boat to my mind is one that can reliably and safely carry out its function or mission. In that context, you would expect a runabout to stay afloat, handle well and ride comfortably in a light chop on inshore waters.
Solo sailor Nicholas Barham had no way of slowing the speedy Tahiti Belle's rush to destruction.
Barham was asleep in a darkened bunk aboard his 31-foot trimaran Tahiti Belle, his dreams troubled by the same concerns he had when awake: Can the rig hold up in this gale?
1. Life jackets: Never use a life jacket without crotch straps and, preferably, a spray hood built into the collar. It is also well worth thinking about having a buddy line and two of the combined red flare/orange smoke canisters the lifeboat crews use attached to their life jacket waist straps.

WEDNESDAY, Oct. 12 (HealthDay News) -- Black Americans who have
surgery for stage 2 and stage 3 colon cancer have worse overall and
recurrence-free survival rates than whites, a new study finds.
Researchers analyzed data from nearly 15,000 black and white
colorectal cancer surgery patients who took part in 12 clinical
trials conducted in North America between 1977 and 2002. All the
patients received the same adjuvant -- or additional -- colon
cancer therapy after surgery.
Over five years, black patients had a 4.6 percent lower overall
survival rate and a 3.7 percent lower recurrence-free survival
Black patients, however, did have a similar recurrence-free
interval, or the time in which they were cancer-free before seeing
their cancer return, as whites.
The survival differences between black and white patients are
mostly likely due to factors unrelated to a patient's response to
post-surgical treatment, said Greg Yothers, of the U.S. National
Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project Biostatistical Center,
and colleagues.
"Biological differences, differences in general health, and disparities in health care outside the clinical trial are possible explanations for these findings," the researchers wrote in a journal news release.
Staging indicates how far cancer has spread.
The study is published Oct. 12 in the
Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
The findings are consistent with other studies published in the
last decade, Dr. Olufunmilayo Olopade, director of the Center for
Clinical Cancer Genetics & Global Health at the University of
Chicago, and colleagues wrote in an accompanying editorial.
They said future studies must include information on patients'
socio-demographic status, tumor biology and other health
conditions. They added that primary care of colon cancer survivors
should be improved and monitored in order to learn more about
differences in survival after cancer recurrence, and that
race-specific enrollment targets may be required for trials
examining genetic markers.
Despite overall improvements in colorectal cancer survival in
the United States, five-year survival rates between 1999 and 2005
were 57 percent for blacks and 68 percent for whites.

Ingredient Spotlight: Mizuna
We first discovered mizuna while searching for an arugula substitute at our local farmers' market. Since then this mildly bitter and peppery green has become a favorite in its own right.
Originally cultivated in Japan, mizuna is traditionally pickled, stir-fried, eaten raw in salads, and added to nabemono. The pretty, jagged leaves are peppery and reminiscent of arugula and mustard greens but more mild. The stalks are also quite delicious, crisp, and watery. We're especially fond of this juicy texture in salads, or lightly sautéed in sesame oil and garlic. An interesting recipe for pickled mizuna may be found at The Little Grass Shack.
Look for mizuna at farmers' markets and Japanese grocery stores. Choose a bunch with fresh, unwilted leaves and firm stalks and store it in a bag in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days.

Been getting this in our CSA box this winter. So far: in salad, sauteed, and wilted on top of a pizza. All very tasty.
I'd love to try this! I just recently discovered sorrel and it is delicious also!
Ah, I want mizuna so badly... I think I will need to put in the effort to grow it myself.
Chopped, wilted into couscous with roasted pepper and garlic is also good.
a couple years ago i got loads of this stuff in my CSA box every week and had to get creative - but my favorite application was definitely a simple salad. julienned fennel, radishes, mizuna, whatever other greens and herbs you have on hand, dressed with a dijon mustard and apple cider vinaigrette. thinking about it almost makes me want to track some more mizuna down for tonight!
A salad when it's young and tender, otherwise a quick sauté. It's very easy to grow.
I still haven't found a better place for it than wilted in some miso soup. It's also good in chicken soup or any other that's very brothy.
LOVE to put it in sukiyaki
I saute them in garlic, sesame oil and a dab of fish sauce.
