catching passes from fellow

Ben Roethlisberger Has 3 Interceptions

SAN FRANCISCO Ben Roethlisberger sat stoically at his locker in a cramped Candlestick Park locker room, hands on his cheeks, watching a team trainer wrap ice around his injured left ankle.

"I want you guys to know he didn't play with any needles," one trainer said.

Roethlisberger threw three interceptions with a sprained left ankle, and the Pittsburgh Steelers missed a chance to take over the AFC's top spot in a 203 loss against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night in a game delayed by two power outages.

"Even when the lights go out, you got to stay prepared. I just didn't play good football," Roethlisberger said.

San Francisco's lightsout return to prime time helped salvage what could have been an embarrassing evening for everyone involved on the NFL's biggest stage after a pair of power outages delayed the game for close to 35 minutes in all.

Enough time to ice Roethlisberger.

Roethlisberger, playing on an ankle that had him in a walking boot during the week, threw two early interceptions and another in the waning minutes.

Even all those Terrible Towelwaving Steelers supporters couldn't will the road team to victory when San Francisco's unique homefield advantage became two blackout delays.

"I just feel like San Francisco took a big step to show the NFL and to show the state of California that they need a new stadium," Steelers safety Ryan Clark said. "I think it was a very strategic move, and Candlestick may be no more."

So might be Pittsburgh's chance at a firstround bye.

The Steelers (104) missed a key opportunity to take sole possession of first place in the AFC North and gain the AFC's No. 1 playoff seed. Instead, they trail Baltimore (104) in the division because the Ravens beat the Steelers twice.

Vernon Davis caught a 1yard touchdown pass for the 49ers (113) one play after setting himself up with a 21yard reception from Alex Smith, Frank Gore ran for a 5yard score and David Akers kicked field goals of 22 and 38 yards to overtake Hall of Famer Jerry Rice for San Francisco's singleseason scoring record.

San Francisco became the first team in NFL history to hold an opponent without a rushing touchdown through each of the first 14 games.

"I think we showed the world we can play the game of football on a national stage," Davis said. "At the end of the day that's what it's all about: respect."

San Francisco rode its vaunted defense once again.

Carlos Rogers, Dashon Goldson and Tarell Brown made interceptions, while Rookie of the Year candidate Aldon Smith had 2 1/2 sacks for San Francisco's stingy defense. The 49ers also have gone 36 games without allowing a 100yard rusher. Rashard Mendenhall had 15 carries for 64 yards.

Roethlisberger Mitchell And Ness Andre Reed Jersey still finished 25 for 44 for 330 yards, but was sacked three times. After his second pick, he fumed as he limped off http://www.billsofficialnflstore.com/Black+Andre+Reed+Jersey/ the field and could be seen yelling into his chin strap.

The 49ers made a big statement in their most meaningful home game since their last trip to the playoffs in January 2003, when San Francisco came from behind to stun the New York Giants 3938 in one of the greatest comebacks in NFL history.

They had to wait 20 minutes to get started after the power went out the first time. It didn't seem to faze San Francisco.

"It wasn't too bad. It was unusual," Alex Smith said. "You don't expect to have to deal with it, and it happened twice. But it was the same for both teams."

Smith wasn't sacked after being taken down 18 times in the previous three games, including nine in the Niners' prime time flop at Baltimore on Thanksgiving night against Jim Harbaugh's big brother, John.

Jim Harbaugh prepared for the Steelers by comparing notes with his brother after the Ravens won both meetings this season with Pittsburgh in one of the AFC's fiercest rivalries. Apparently it worked.

The Steelers are 0forHarbaugh this season.

"I think we need to acknowledge that was 49er football tonight," Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. "We played the game on their terms."

The 37yearold Akers, who long admired Rice from afar growing up in Kentucky, topped Rice's 138 points scored in 1987.

Yet Akers has said he doesn't feel deserving of the points mark over a great such as Rice who clowned around on the field before the Andre Reed Throwback Jersey game catching passes from fellow Hall of Famer and former QB Steve Young, including one in the end zone.

It was after Akers' Andre Reed Jersey second field goal when everything went dark for a second time. Thousands of flashbulbs went off in the midst of the black, with a sellout crowd of 69,732 sitting in darkness including all those Steelers fans who travel the country with their team.

NFL security chief Jeff Miller said he witnessed a transformer blow up while he was monitoring a gate outside the stadium, where a shooting during the preseason already put a negative light on this venue.

It was the same scenario

Bear Essentials

If, as rumored, quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Drew Brees, who are two of the 10 plaintiffs in the antitrust lawsuit against the NFL, are intent on holding up the settlement of that http://www.billsofficialnflstore.com issue to gain exemption for themselves from the franchise tag, they're making a monumental mistake.

For two of the most wellcompensated members of the league to jeopardize or even delay the longawaited labor agreement would be egregious and unfathomably selfserving. Ditto two of the other plaintiffs, Chargers wide receiver Vincent Jackson and Patriots guard Logan Mankins, who reportedly wish to be granted free agency or receive $10 million each.

Team executives blamed the lockout for the need to cut the salaries of those making $75,000 by 20 percent, those making between $50,000 and $74,999 by 15 percent, and those making less than $50,000 by 10 percent.

Apparently, the employees' salaries will return to normal levels when the lockout ends, but there's Marcell Dareus Black Jersey a big question on whether the Dolphins will return lost wages to the employees.

Bears kicker and player representative Robbie Gould was joined by several teammates at Halas Hall Friday morning, even though the team's offseason program doesn't officially begin until Monday, May 9.

Players were allowed to use the facilities to lift weights and run, although those activities were, for now, unsupervised, and they were able to seek medical attention from the training staff and to confer with coaches.

"It's kind of business as usual," Gould said. "It feels good to be back working out, and it's great to be around your teammates. It's just great to http://www.billsofficialnflstore.com/Black+Marcell+Dareus+Jersey have the opportunity to get back to football."

In addition to Gould, defensive linemen Israel Idonije and Matt Toeaina were at Halas Hall as were fullback Eddie Williams and tight end Greg Olsen.

The Bears plan to start their offseason program a week from Monday (May 9) and conduct their rookie minicamp May 68 and their fullsquad minicamp June 35 at Halas Hall, according to the team's website. Friday.

At that time, players will be permitted to work out, receive medical treatment, meet with coaches, watch tape and pick up playbooks.

The Bears' offseason program originally was supposed to begin on Monday, April 11.

Less than 24 hours after a federal judge lifted the NFL's 45dayold lockout of players, several Bears showed up at Halas Hall Tuesday morning and were allowed inside but were not permitted the use of facilities. They were met in the lobby by team president and CEO Ted Phillips and senior director of football administration and general counsel Cliff Stein, who informed them that they were welcome at the facility but could not work out, either in the weight room or on the Marcell Dareus Jersey Ebay practice field.

It was the same scenario at NFL training facilities across the country.

The Bears tried to bring in a young quarterback to develop last year when they drafted Benet High School's Dan LeFevour in the sixth round after his recordsetting career at Central Michigan.

But the Bears knew LeFevour wasn't ready to play right away, and they tried to stash him on the practice squad, but the Bengals signed him to their active roster. Jerry Angelo will be looking for another developmental quarterback in the late rounds on Saturday.

ourselves to building

be a voice for animals

UPDATE: Shortly after Leodis McKelvin Jersey posting this story, we learned that Pope Francis, in his first press conference a day after taking on his new role, took special notice of a service dog in the audience. The Washington Post reported that the pope leaned down to bless a golden retriever accompanying a visuallyimpaired reporter at the event. The gesture drew amused chuckles from the crowd. For animal lovers it was a important sign of humanity from a spiritual leader whose influence touches all corners of the globe.

With the news that the new pontiff, Argentinian Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergogli, would be known as Pope Francis we wondered if he had chosen the name in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals. Or had he taken the name of the Jesuit missionary, Francis Xavier?

Yesterday the new pope divulged that he had in fact chosen the saint, saying Francis was a man of peace and explaining that he wished for a church that was both poor and "for the poor."

Might this also mean that Pope Francis will be the voice for the voiceless in nature?

St. Francis' legacy is deeply rooted in his connection with the environment and nature, which he believed was a mirror of God. In 1979 Pope John Paul II named St. Francis the patron saint of ecology.

He called all creatures his and and was knownto preach to Leodis McKelvin Black Jersey the birds. The statue above, sculpted byJohann Baptist MoroderLusenberg for the Parish Church of Urtij in South Tyrol in northern Italy, depicts Francis with a rabbit and a bird at his feet.

There is the famous legend of St. Francis and the wolf how he resolved tensions between residents of an Italian city and a wolf that was tormenting animals and people, described here on Wikipedia:

Francis Nike Leodis McKelvin Jersey had compassion upon the townsfolk, and so he went up into the hills to find the wolf. Soon, fear of the animal had caused all his companions to flee, though the saint pressed on. When he found the wolf, he made the sign of the cross and commanded the wolf to come to him and hurt no one. Miraculously the wolf closed his jaws and lay down at the feet of St. Francis. "Brother Wolf, you do much harm in these parts and you have done great evil," said Francis. Because the wolf had evil out of hunger, the townsfolk were to feed the wolf regularly. In return, the wolf would no longer prey upon them or their flocks. In this manner Gubbio was freed from the menace of the predator. Francis even made a pact on behalf of the town dogs, that they would not bother the wolf again. Finally, to show the townspeople that they would not be harmed, Francis blessed the wolf.

Pope John Paul II described Francis as a friend of the poor who was loved by all God's creatures:

"Saint Francis invited all of creation animals, plants, natural forces, even Brother Sun and Sister Moon to give honor and praise to the Lord. The poor man of Assisi gives us striking witness that when we are at peace with God we are better able to devote ourselves to building up that peace with all creation which is inseparable from peace among all peoples."

really hard and requires

Bay Bridge fasteners withstand tests

Don't Miss:Best pot for depressionSaunders: Retrofit needs a retrofitGarchik: Soothing a politicianTasty Quinto SolInstagramming Burning ManThe construction continues on the eastern section of the Bay Bridge as seen from Treasure Island, in San Francisco, Calif., on Tuesday August 13, 2013. After years of delays, cost increases and complications on the $6.3 billion Bay Bridge project, finally there's some good news. The new east span will open to drivers traveling in both directions by the end of 2013 instead of the earlier plan to make eastbound motorists wait until 2014.

The construction continues on the eastern section of the Bay Bridge.

Tests that Caltrans launched to predict the reliability of hundreds of atrisk steel fasteners on the new Bay Bridge eastern span after 32 rods failed this year are giving rise to cautious optimism that the parts will not need to be replaced, agency engineers say.

"I'm pleased with what I'm seeing so far," , Caltrans' chief engineer for the span, said after seeing early results of tests intended to gauge the steel parts' ability to hold up in a marine environment.

"These tests are going really well," Maroney said. "While it's too early to draw conclusions, so far it's good news."

The tests, which started this month, were ordered by Caltrans after the 32 rods installed on seismicstabilizing bridge structures in 2008 snapped when workers tightened them in March. It turned out that the rods' hardened, galvanized steel had been contaminated by crackinducing hydrogen, Fred Jackson Jersey either during manufacturing or from being left in holes that filled up with rainwater.

The mass cracking threatened to delay the span's Sept. 3 opening. Caltrans eventually found a quick fix that passed muster with federal highway officials, but that left unanswered the question of what to do about 2,200 similar steel bolts and rods on the $6.4 billion span.

Galvanized steelAll the fasteners are made of a grade of galvanized steel that Caltrans prohibited in bridge construction because of its vulnerability to cracking. Caltrans decided that such bolts, specially processed to avoid hydrogen contamination, could work on the Bay Bridge a conclusion that some outside experts have since criticized as faulty.

Of the 2,200 rods and bolts at issue, more than 400 anchor the eastern span's tower and cannot be reached for replacement. Caltrans hopes to keep many of those and more than 1,100 other steel fasteners dry and at a low tension, reducing their risk of being contaminated by hydrogen and cracking.

That leaves 700plus rods and bolts thought to be at greatest risk of cracking because they are extrahard, under high tension and exposed to the moist, hydrogenrich air. Caltrans has indicated it might replace them, pending the outcome of tests to determine whether that is necessary.

Saltwater dunksSome of the tests involve dunking samples of the rods in saltwater tanks designed to mimic a decade http://www.billsofficialnflstore.com/Black+Fred+Jackson+Jersey of weather conditions and slowly pulling them apart to simulate their susceptibility to environmental forces.

Caltrans has not provided any specifics as to the cost of the testing effort or who will pay for it. Each 23day test involves using 300ton hydraulic jacks to subject the samples to steadily greater stress.

As http://www.billsofficialnflstore.com of Friday, Caltrans said, three of the four samples being tested had been stretched to loads at least as great as they will be subjected to on the bridge, without breaking. The tests will continue until the rods snap, to predict how much stress they can take.

"So far, not only in this test, but in other tests," Maroney said, the rods "have not shown the poor properties we saw" in the steel fasteners that broke Fred Jackson Jersey Ebay in March.

Other tests include hitting the metal with mechanical hammers to test the steel's toughness, as well as examining its metallurgical structure for signs it could be susceptible to becoming brittle.

"It takes times to do these tests," Maroney said, but "if we get good, strong extra evidence that says the (rods and bolts) are not sensitive to that kind of stress in the environment," chances are they will be left in place on the new bridge.

Caltrans doesn't "want to spend a penny of taxpayer money on replacing a rod if there is not a need to do it," Maroney said.

Caltrans' tests questionedSome outside experts, however, questioned whether the Caltrans tests would accurately predict how the rods and bolts will hold up on the bridge.

"It's really hard and requires of lot of thought and luck to recreate the field situation in a laboratory I have spent 30 years doing it," said , a hydrogenassisted cracking and corrosion expert in Texas.

"Sometimes you can't get it to fail, no matter what you do," Kane said. "You have to know all the variables. In complex, engineered structures, it's impossible to know all the variables."
