Ndamukong Suh escaped suspension, but not a fine.
Suh was fined $30,000 for a kick to Texans quarterback Matt Schaub's groin on Thursday.
The league announced Monday they would not suspend the Lions defensive tackle for his actions.
On Wednesday, Suh said the kick was inadvertent.
"I was being dragged to the ground and my foot inadvertently hit the man," Suh told the Detroit Free Press.
Suh also declined to apologize when asked if he'd like to even though the kick was not intentional.
Yesterday at a Lions charity function, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell commented on the incident which incited Texans offensive players.
"Intent is something that is very difficult for us to ever try to make a judgement on," Goodell told reporters in Detroit.

Wallace & Barnes selvedge chino pant
Prices do not include taxes.
size & fit
- Sits below waist.
- Straight through hip, slim through thigh, with a slim leg.
- 15" leg opening (based on size 32/33).
Product Details
We feel no guy should go without a properly made pair of selvedge chinos. Selvedge is a nod to the early 19th century, when fabric was woven on narrow looms and the edges were sewn together to create a "self edge" that helped prevent fraying (a colored thread was often incorporated to help the mill tell fabrics apart). We continue this great tradition with a small-batch line of denim chinos that are woven in Japan. The dense, unwashed fabric will slowly fade, break in and "whisker," just like a pair of jeans.
- Cotton.
- Button fly.
- Machine wash.
- Import.
- Select stores.
- Item G2540.

Once again The Sun is out of touch with economic realities in proposing an increase in the state's gas tax ("Pump up the economy," Nov. 25).
First, a gas tax is highly regressive and disproportionately impacts the poor. Second, according to Maryland Comptroller Peter Franchot, who (unlike The Sun) actually knows all the financial details of the state, we already have ample tax revenues in Maryland, which is one the highest-taxed states in the nation.
Third, the state needs to focus on creating an environment that encourages private sector investment and the creation of jobs. Fourth, we know that higher taxes are coming from the federal level, and the state and city piggyback on many of these.
The Sun should analyze the states where private sector jobs and private investment are growing. I am sure you will note that these are states with lower, not higher, tax rates.

Iran: A Passenger Review - Perspective vs. Reality
We often get praise from our clients regarding our tours, tour leaders, office staff and all other aspects of ElderTreks. Obviously we love to hear it! Besides our testimonials on our trip pages and tour leader page, we also wish to start featuring some of these reviews with our readers and fellow travelers.
Mr. Huyke was lucky enough to join us on our Iran tour in the spring of 2012. He had such positive and kind words to say that we couldn't resist sharing them.
Tour Leader
I thought Gülin Pazaroglu was the ultimate one-of-a-kind Tour Leader. But little did I know that Fatima Nejadveisi would challenge that statement. Fatima is certainly Gülin's equal. What a remarkable individual! She is not only a living encyclopedia of everything Iranian, but also a consummate professional who is passionate about her job. The eight travelers in our group benefitted from her endless compassion, kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity. She cared about everyone of us. Fatima is the rare no-nonsense individual who can lead the must difficult group with ease and confidence. I admired her contagious enthusiasm and good sense of humor. Her boundless knowledge and experience was evident throughout this well planned 21-day excursion. I am personally grateful to Fatima for helping me to discover the magic of Iran and for collecting memories that will last a lifetime. BRAVA FATIMA!
Fatima was my third consecutive female Tour Leader. I was very impressed by all three: Gülin Pazaroglu (Classical Turkey), Aida Eren (Eastern Turkey), and Fatima Nejadvesei (Iran). On balance, they were superior to their male counterparts. This is because all three were compassionate and caring. Perhaps ElderTreks should consider supplementing its roster of Tour Leaders by hiring additional females.
Bus Driver
Mehran Asadi, the bus driver throughout the excursion, is simply a terrific individual and an exceptional driver. In addition to being helpful, kind, and friendly, he spoke a reasonable amount of English. ElderTreks should continue to use his services whenever possible.
Tour Co-ordinator
Accolades are also due to (1) Bob Perry who did a terrific job in coordinating this memorable excursion to Iran, and (2) David Roth, who booked my trip and answered all my questions.
Accommodations and Meals
On balance, accommodations ranged from excellent (Laleh International Hotel in Tehran and Yazd, Fajr Hotel in Ahwaz, Pars International Hotel in Shiraz, and the Abasi Hotel in Isfahan) to good.
Meals were excellent and varied. Fatima made sure we had a taste of every salient morsel in the Iranian cuisine.
Iranian Security
The apprehension and uncertainty I felt before departure were quickly dispelled upon arrival in Iran. I felt completely safe throughout the trip. Prospective travelers to Iran with security concerns should contact me. I will be happy to answer any question they may have about security in Iran.
Thanks to Fatima, this tour was an excellent experience -- with zero downtime -- from beginning to end. If I had to numerically rate this experience from 1 to 10, I would happily rate it a 10.

WORCESTER, Mass. – During last Sunday's NCAA men's college hockey selection show, the announcers noted that the Northeast Regional should come down to a finale that includes Boston College and North Dakota. They were right on one of those national powers, but they forgot about the third highly ranked squad in the field, No. 9 Yale. Ryan Rondeau, making his first start since Nov. 21, stopped 34 of 36 shots and Denny Kearney hit the net twice as the Bulldogs shocked the No. 5 Fighting Sioux before 6,572 at the DCU Center in the Yale program's greatest win.
The Bulldogs (21-9-3), who earned a first-ever post-season meeting with Boston College in the regional final Sunday at 5:30 p.m. E.T., grabbed a rare win while being outshot (37-23). It was just the second time this year Yale won when the opponent put more shots on net. The 23 shots were the second fewest this year and the fewest in a Yale win.
The Bulldogs, 2-3 all-time in NCAA play, notched their first tournament victory since beating St. Lawrence, 4-1, in the consolation of the 1952 tournament. North Dakota has won eight national titles.
"I'm really proud of our guys with the way they competed tonight, the way they stuck to our game plan. We knew North Dakota, with the quality of the players and their coaching staff, that they weren't going to go away," said Keith Allain '80, Yale's Malcolm G. Chace Head Coach of Hockey.
Rondeau, a junior who had not played since the Bulldogs were at Brown late in the fall, had a dozen stops in the first, six in the second and 16 in the third. It was his fourth win against a nationally ranked team.
"It's really no different than anything we have been doing all year long," said Allain in reference to his choice in goal. "One of the things I told the team after we got knocked out in the conference tournament was that the goaltender who deserved to play after these two weeks of practice was going to play. It was an open competition and Ryan won the competition."
Sophomore Brad Eidsness, who made 20 saves in the UND net, probably didn't expect the Bulldogs to reach their season average of 40 shots, even as the nation's highest scoring team. He gave up the game's first three goals in the first 40 minutes before the Sioux made a third-period surge.
"We kind of knew we were playing with house money a little bit. Not too many people were expecting too much out of us, but I think we did a good job with that role. We played a little bit looser than we did two weekends ago [ECACs]," said Yale captain Ryan Donald.
The Fighting Sioux(25-13-5) had the advantage in shots (12-8) in the first period but the Bulldogs had the only goal. Both teams had three grade-A scoring chances and a pair of scoreless power-play attempts.
Tom Dignard's shot from the top of the left circle was re-directed by Kearney over the shoulder of Eidsness at 5:48 to make it 1-0. It was the bounce of the puck that Yale needed to plant the seed of doubt in the minds of the UND players.
The Elis had a solid power-play attempt coming out for the middle period but did not break the goal line. A few minutes after killing off the advantage, UND came up with its best opportunity. Darcy Zajac wheeled and fired a low shot from the left circle that required Rondeau to extend his leg and grab the puck in one motion.
After a few great opportunities to create some distance from the No. 2 seed, the Bulldogs finally made it 2-0 at 12:49 of the second. Kevin Limbert fed Kearney over the blueline and the junior winger did the rest. Kearney, with a defender moving over to cover another winger, had an open path to the net but not much of angle to work with. That's why he deked left, right and then went left with a fore-hand tuck under an extended pad for his 11th goal of the year.
" I had a couple of nice passes from teammates," said Kearney, who enjoyed his third multiple-goal game of the year. "Tom [Dignard] made a great shot on the first one and I was able to put my stick on it and Kevin [Limbert] also made a nice feed. I was put in a great situation and was able to finish."
UND could smell its first goal of the game late in the middle frame. Zajac broke free from the Yale defense and was about to come in alone on Rondeau when captain Ryan Donald pulled him down from behind with 4:12 left. The referee behind the goal line immediately signaled for a penalty shot, and you knew the senior center was salivating at the chance. Zajac took the puck from center ice and came into the middle slot before firing a hard wrist shot off the left post. Rondeau had come out initially but settled back and was not providing much of an angle.
Other than that scary moment, the Yale defense played 40 minutes of solid hockey and really limited UND's looks at the net.
That play turned into momentum for the Bulldogs to notch their third goal. O'Neill crossed over the UND blueline with speed and left it for Arcobello. The senior center rifled a shot wide right but followed the puck, which bounced off the boards and came out to the side of the cage. Arcobello got their first and slipped a tricky shot inside the near post at 17:46 for his 12th tally of the season and a 3-0 lead.
Once again, both teams had three grade-A chances over the 20 minutes, but this time the Elis had more (10-7) shots. The last Yale tally may have appeared insignificant at the time.
The Sioux finally broke through 2:59 into the third when winger Brett Hextall (14th goal) skated across the left circle and wristed a rising shot over Rondeau's glove. It was a true "sniper" shot.
Almost three minutes later, North Dakota found another seam and cut the margin to one. Matt Frattin, jumped all over a turnover at mid ice and came in ahead of Nick Jaskowiak. The Yale defender swiped at him and all he could get was body. Frattin (11th), while falling to the ice, flicked a shot inside the right post at 5:58 to make it 3-2.
"We knew they were going to come hard at the beginning of the period. So I think we just had to relax a little bit, get back to our game," said Arcobello, who won 15 of 21 face-offs tonight. "I think we strayed from it a little in the time they scored two goals quick. We tried to refocus a little bit and get back on track."
Frattin challenged Rondeau with under six minutes left and had two nasty shots in one sequence. The Yale netminder reacted quickly on the rebound to knock away the last attempt.
Defenseman Jimmy Martin, who played a great game, was called for tripping with 5:21 left, and the Sioux had exactly what they were looking for. The only problem was that Yale came up with its best penalty-kill of the night and limited UND to two shots on target while clearing the puck the length of the ice three times.
"We just hoped they wouldn't get that goal in the third period as early as they did. And then they got the second one. But we reminded our guys that if they wanted to be champions they would have to go through some rough times and there would be adversity because every team we face is a quality team, and this was going to be our test, and I thought we passed it pretty well," said Allain, a Worcester native who has led the Blue to consecutive 20-win seasons.
UND, which had all of the best scoring chances in the third and had an 18-5 shots advantage, pulled its goalie with a minute left but could not get sustained pressure on the net.
"Congratulations to Yale. They did a good job building a three goal lead and completing the game to move on to the regional final tomorrow. Quite simply on our part we picked a bad time of year to start poorly and we took a little too long to regain our style of game. We were able to do that after we scored the first goal in the third period, and get a little but more and a little bit better consistent play through that 20 minutes. It was a little too late on this day," said UND Head Coach Dave Hakstol, whose team had won 12 of 13 heading into the NCAAs.
The Yale-BC winner heads to Detroit for the 2010 Frozen Four.
Tickets are available for Sunday's game and can be purchased at the DCU box office tomorrow afternoon… The Yale-BC game can be seen live on ESPNU (available on Comcast, DirecTV and more) or espn360.com. Unlike the semi-final against UND, Sunday's game will not be on MyTV9 or WCTX… Ryan Rondeau has had some big games against nationally ranked teams. He made 30 saves in a 3-2 win over No. 17 Minnesota State in 2008-09 five days before beating No. 11 Air Force by the same count with 29 saves. Both of those games were at Ingalls Rink. A few weeks later at Cornell, he stopped 17 shots in a 4-3 victory over the No. 3 Big Red… Neither team hit the net on the power play; Yale was 0-3 and UND 0-4.

Cucumber Subs
I've heard of lettuce wrapped burgers before but this is the first time I see subs with cucumbers instead of bread. This is great for having a low carb meal, maybe something you'd have after a workout. You just peel the cucumber from the inside a bit and fill it up with whatever you want but no idea where to buy cucumbers this size.[Source]

US President Barack Obama laid out his second-term agenda on Wednesday, expressing a willingness to work with Republicans in the US Congress and a resolve to defy them if necessary.
In his first full-scale news conference since March, Obama said he was willing to compromise with Republicans to forge a deal on the nation's debt and taxes to avoid the "fiscal cliff," a combination of budget cuts and tax increases that will kick in next year if such an agreement is not reached.
However, he said he would not abandon his campaign pledge to allow tax cuts on the top 2 percent of US earners to expire.
After a re-election campaign that critics said offered few details of his vision for the next four years, Obama discussed his priorities on policies from immigration to climate change during an hour-long press conference.
The president was relaxed, bantered with reporters who challenged him and expressed gratitude for having the chance to be in the White House for another four years.
"I don't have another election, and Michelle and I were talking last night about what an incredible honor and privilege it is to be put in this position," he said, referring to his wife.
Critics of his first term say Obama did not do enough to reach out to lawmakers, particularly Republicans who still hold a majority in the US House of Representatives. Obama took a conciliatory tone toward Congress while sticking to his positions on issues that divide Democrats and Republicans, including tax rates and reducing the budget deficit.
"Look, I think there's no doubt that I can always do better and so I will examine ways that I can make sure to communicate my desire to work with everybody, so long as it's advancing the cause of strengthening our middle class and improving our economy," he said.
His conciliatory tone broke down when asked about US senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham's criticism of UN Ambassador Susan Rice — a contender to succeed US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton — saying they would not support her nomination for a Cabinet post because she made misleading statements about the September attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans.
"For them to go after the UN ambassador, who had nothing to do with Benghazi and was simply making a presentation based on intelligence that she had received, and to besmirch her reputation is outrageous," Obama said.
If he decided Rice was the best person to succeed Clinton at the Department of State, he would nominate her, Obama said, adding: "That's not a determination that I've made yet."
The controversy over former CIA director David Petraeus' extramarital affair and subsequent resignation dominated the initial questions for the president, who said the former four-star general had an "extraordinary career" and served the US with distinction.
On fiscal matters, Obama did not go so far as to claim a strong mandate to push through everything he wanted.
"I've got a mandate to help middle-class families and families that are working hard to try to get into the middle class," Obama said. "That's my mandate. That's what the American people said."
"I don't presume that because I won an election that everybody suddenly agrees with me on everything," he added. "I'm more than familiar with all the literature about presidential overreach in second terms. We are very cautious about that."
However, Obama was not cautious about putting timetables on the policy priorities he has set for his second term.
He said he expects to introduce a bill in Congress on comprehensive immigration reform "very soon" after his January inauguration, and he promised to engage scientists, engineers and elected officials in a conversation about reducing carbon emissions in the coming weeks and months.

Detailed Description of Conduct of Course
This two-course sequence will be presented largely, though not exclusively, through the lecture method. Slides and video tapes will be used to illustrate themes. The course also lends itself to discussion that can encompass both facts and supposition. Writing of an informal nature as well as formal papers and classroom reports are all possible experiences for students.
Goals and Objectives of the Course
At the conclusion of each section of the course, the student will:
1. Define a time line of events in the history of dance as a performing art in the West.
2. Research a topic in dance history and describe the historical and cultural significance of that contribution in a written report.
3. Identify factors and events influencing the evolution of dance in selected periods of history.
4. Explain the complexity of dance as religious expression, as recreation, as communication among people, and as performing art.
Assessment Measures
Methods of evaluating the students' grasp of material may include written exams that cover both facts and philosophy, formal papers, oral reports, informal writing, and class attendance.
Other Course Information
The division of content in this two-course sequence should be left somewhat to the discretion of the instructor. While the sequence, taken together, presents the spectrum of dance through human history, students need not take them in order. The content of one course influences but does not dictate the content of the other.

Product Highlights
This item is noncancelable and nonreturnable.
The CURVE235-196A1080P3 Lunette 76 x 181" Fixed Frame Projection Screen from Elite Screens features a curved screen designed to extend into the viewer's peripheral vision to create a more immersive viewing experience. To further enrich the experience, the screen enables placement of the right, center, and left channel speakers behind the it. Placing the primary speakers being the screen helps bring picture and sound into tighter unity.
Another benefit of a curved frame design is that it helps eliminate a visual artifact known as "pincushion effect". Pincushion effect happens when the distance to the right and left edges of the projected image are greater than the distance to the center, resulting in a image resembling an hourglass laying on its side. This effect is due to the fact that because light has to travel farther to reach the edges than the center the image tends to become more spread out the further it gets from center. Curving the screen allows the light to travel the same distance to reach any point on the screen surface, thereby yielding a uniform picture.
