Benkin, the American champion of Bangladeshi journalist Saleh Uddin Choudhury. Shoaib Choudhury is the fearless Muslim newspaper editor who was arrested by Bangladeshi authorities in November 2003 as he pre-· . pared to board a flight en: route to Israel, where he was planning to deliver an address promoting peaceable relations between Muslims and Jews. Now, at this point in the column, I realize your average Thanksgiving feastdigesting Reader (R) is probably more inclined to scan holiday ads than tough it out here. So without giving anything away, I'll just mention, FYI, that today's offering does end up as holiday fare. R: Fine. Get on with it. QK. Back to Choudhury 's arrest. For his "crime" (Bangladesh doesn't recog; nize israel) and hi s writings ·(Choudhury has denounced the rise of jihadism in Bangladesh and has called for better relations with Jews and Israel). he was accused of treason, sedition and blasphemy, all capital crimes in Bangladesh. R: · Bangladesh. Bangladesh ... isn't that where that terrible tsunami or cyclone or whatever just happened? Yes. and more on that below. (Clearly, your average R. is now experiencing guilt pangs over your average Thanksgiving - more food and fun than disaster Diana West victims will know - and contemplates whipping out the checkbook to send relief money to one of the charities local papers are now listing.) R: Just make your point. Don't get snippy. Choudhury has since suffered beatings, torture and solitary confinement for 17 months. He was barred from his mother's funeral. The offices of his newspaper, the Weekly Blitz, have been bombed. Last year, he was savaged by a mob, leaving him with a fractured ankle. According to the Jerusalem Post, the police refused to allow him to press charges against his attackers. His Weekly Blitz Web site reported that his assailants ·included leaders from Jasas, the "cultural wing" of the ruling Bangladeshi National Party. Choudhury's plight hasn't been all bleak. He has won the political support of Rep, Mark Kirk, R-IlL Benkin. his citizen-defender, who is Jewish, has pleaded his case high and low, helping his "Muslim brother" - that's what Benkin calls him garner international recognition.

Noble Jr. Ohio Supreme Court to nullify Burnside 's discovery order and declare that trial judges have no power to make such demands. The case has drawn support from both sides of the debate. Advocate> of the law say open discovery keeps innocent people from getting convicted. In last year's Duke case against University lacrosse players accused of rape; defense lawyers used North Carolina's 2-year-oid "open-file discovery" law to open prosecution files and find proof that Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong pressed ahead wiih the case despite the players'' questionable guilt. Opponents of the law, including the Ohio Prosecuting Attorneys Association, argue that it might get innocent people killed. They point to the 1996 case of James Reynolds and Shannon ·Hawks, two · Columbus youths and potential eye witnesses to a murder, who were shot and killed after a prosecutor shared files with the lawyer for the capitalmurder defendant. · Open-file discovery "is an open invitation ' to gel people hurt or killed," said Clarke County Prosecutor Stephen · S~humacher. Mason said his staff counted 430 indicted cases of retaliation or intimidation against victims and witnesses in the last two years. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1963 that defendants are entitled to ail exculpatory . evidence, or matenal that is favorable to the defendant and related to guilt or punishment. However, the justices have · left it largely to slates to work out the details. In Ohio, the material disclosed by prosecutors to defendants during and before a trial is regulated a 34-year-old criminal rule. The rule gives a list of · specifics including the defendant's statements and any test results the slate might use at trial, such as DNA or fingerprint analysis . nies to pay promised pensions and extensive looting of some . pension and weifare funds· at companies and labor unions. Class-action suits filed under the law over the past decade have targeted Enron, WorldCom and other major companies tainted by scandal. · From a legal standpoint, it is less clear what action an individual account holder can. take against a retirement plan when the conduct at issue is less than criminal. LaRue says that in 2000 and 200 I he requested changes in his investment allocations in mutual funds that were available to participants in his company's 40l(k) plan. He says the requests were not honored. "I wanted to sell stocks and move io cash because I thought the market wou ld head down. I was right." LaRue said in a telephone interview. "I didn 't find out that the plan had not executed my transactions until I 0 months later. They had a substandard reporting system. I left the firm . I asked them again to make the change, and they still didn't do it. I don't know why." The Bush administration, siding with LaRue, says an appeals court ruling against him would leave partici· pants in "the most common form of pension plan who have bee11 injured by a breach of fiduciary duty without a meaningful remedy from any court." LaRue sued in 2004, saying he had tried to avoid going to court and instead sought to reach a settlement with his former employers. He was unsuccessful, as it turned out. "We had already been through one lawsuit over stock in .the company, which J won," said LaRue. "Even though I prevailed, it was not pleasant. I didn't want to go through it again." Business groups assign a different motive to the long delay in filing the second suit, saying LaRue was waiting to see how the market performed. If the value of his investment went up, he made money. If it went down, he would head to court. LaRue, according to the American Council of Life Insurers, was "squarely in the proverbial catbird seat. ... He could not lose. ...

"If they're going to shift the responsibility for a plan from a company to the individual, then they should listen to our instructions," LaRue said. ERISA pre-empts state laws relating to employee benefit plans,. meaning LaRue canhot use them to sue, and therein lies his problem. Besides protecting workers, ERISA was aimed at encouraging employers to set up retirement plans and in doing so, Congress limited the right to sue. Just where the line is drawn is the question in LaRue's suit, though the Supreme CoUJ1 in past decisions on ERISA has drawn the lin ~ in favor of employers. The business world says allowing cases like LaRue's could lead to a wave of suits without merit. . "There is a cost associated with any expansion of remedies," the · U.S. Cliamber of Commerce said in a filing in the Supreme Court supporting LaRue's former employer. Opening up plan administrators to liability will increase the cost of running ERISA plans, result in fewer being established or reduce the level of benefits, the business group says.

Benkin, the American champion of Bangladeshi journalist Saleh Uddin Choudhury. Shoaib Choudhury is the fearless Muslim newspaper editor who was arrested by Bangladeshi authorities in November 2003 as he pre-· . pared to board a flight en: route to Israel, where he was planning to deliver an address promoting peaceable relations between Muslims and Jews. Now, at this point in the column, I realize your average Thanksgiving feastdigesting Reader (R) is probably more inclined to scan holiday ads than tough it out here. So without giving anything away, I'll just mention, FYI, that today's offering does end up as holiday fare. R: Fine. Get on with it. QK. Back to Choudhury 's arrest. For his "crime" (Bangladesh doesn't recog; nize israel) and hi s writings ·(Choudhury has denounced the rise of jihadism in Bangladesh and has called for better relations with Jews and Israel). he was accused of treason, sedition and blasphemy, all capital crimes in Bangladesh. R: · Bangladesh. Bangladesh ... isn't that where that terrible tsunami or cyclone or whatever just happened? Yes. and more on that below. (Clearly, your average R. is now experiencing guilt pangs over your average Thanksgiving - more food and fun than disaster Diana West victims will know - and contemplates whipping out the checkbook to send relief money to one of the charities local papers are now listing.) R: Just make your point. Don't get snippy. Choudhury has since suffered beatings, torture and solitary confinement for 17 months. He was barred from his mother's funeral. The offices of his newspaper, the Weekly Blitz, have been bombed. Last year, he was savaged by a mob, leaving him with a fractured ankle. According to the Jerusalem Post, the police refused to allow him to press charges against his attackers. His Weekly Blitz Web site reported that his assailants ·included leaders from Jasas, the "cultural wing" of the ruling Bangladeshi National Party. Choudhury's plight hasn't been all bleak. He has won the political support of Rep, Mark Kirk, R-IlL Benkin. his citizen-defender, who is Jewish, has pleaded his case high and low, helping his "Muslim brother" - that's what Benkin calls him garner international recognition.

Noble Jr. Ohio Supreme Court to nullify Burnside 's discovery order and declare that trial judges have no power to make such demands. The case has drawn support from both sides of the debate. Advocate> of the law say open discovery keeps innocent people from getting convicted. In last year's Duke case against University lacrosse players accused of rape; defense lawyers used North Carolina's 2-year-oid "open-file discovery" law to open prosecution files and find proof that Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong pressed ahead wiih the case despite the players'' questionable guilt. Opponents of the law, including the Ohio Prosecuting Attorneys Association, argue that it might get innocent people killed. They point to the 1996 case of James Reynolds and Shannon ·Hawks, two · Columbus youths and potential eye witnesses to a murder, who were shot and killed after a prosecutor shared files with the lawyer for the capitalmurder defendant. · Open-file discovery "is an open invitation ' to gel people hurt or killed," said Clarke County Prosecutor Stephen · S~humacher. Mason said his staff counted 430 indicted cases of retaliation or intimidation against victims and witnesses in the last two years. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1963 that defendants are entitled to ail exculpatory . evidence, or matenal that is favorable to the defendant and related to guilt or punishment. However, the justices have · left it largely to slates to work out the details. In Ohio, the material disclosed by prosecutors to defendants during and before a trial is regulated a 34-year-old criminal rule. The rule gives a list of · specifics including the defendant's statements and any test results the slate might use at trial, such as DNA or fingerprint analysis . nies to pay promised pensions and extensive looting of some . pension and weifare funds· at companies and labor unions. Class-action suits filed under the law over the past decade have targeted Enron, WorldCom and other major companies tainted by scandal. · From a legal standpoint, it is less clear what action an individual account holder can. take against a retirement plan when the conduct at issue is less than criminal. LaRue says that in 2000 and 200 I he requested changes in his investment allocations in mutual funds that were available to participants in his company's 40l(k) plan. He says the requests were not honored. "I wanted to sell stocks and move io cash because I thought the market wou ld head down. I was right." LaRue said in a telephone interview. "I didn 't find out that the plan had not executed my transactions until I 0 months later. They had a substandard reporting system. I left the firm . I asked them again to make the change, and they still didn't do it. I don't know why." The Bush administration, siding with LaRue, says an appeals court ruling against him would leave partici· pants in "the most common form of pension plan who have bee11 injured by a breach of fiduciary duty without a meaningful remedy from any court." LaRue sued in 2004, saying he had tried to avoid going to court and instead sought to reach a settlement with his former employers. He was unsuccessful, as it turned out. "We had already been through one lawsuit over stock in .the company, which J won," said LaRue. "Even though I prevailed, it was not pleasant. I didn't want to go through it again." Business groups assign a different motive to the long delay in filing the second suit, saying LaRue was waiting to see how the market performed. If the value of his investment went up, he made money. If it went down, he would head to court. LaRue, according to the American Council of Life Insurers, was "squarely in the proverbial catbird seat. ... He could not lose. ... Granting LaRue relief in this case would encourage other plan participants to do the sarn_e." In papers in the case, the council said denying LaRue the right to sue for damages would ensure that a plan participant who claims his . mvestment directions were not followed would act promptly, seeking a court order if necessary.

"If they're going to shift the responsibility for a plan from a company to the individual, then they should listen to our instructions," LaRue said. ERISA pre-empts state laws relating to employee benefit plans,. meaning LaRue canhot use them to sue, and therein lies his problem. Besides protecting workers, ERISA was aimed at encouraging employers to set up retirement plans and in doing so, Congress limited the right to sue. Just where the line is drawn is the question in LaRue's suit, though the Supreme CoUJ1 in past decisions on ERISA has drawn the lin ~ in favor of employers. The business world says allowing cases like LaRue's could lead to a wave of suits without merit. . "There is a cost associated with any expansion of remedies," the · U.S. Cliamber of Commerce said in a filing in the Supreme Court supporting LaRue's former employer. Opening up plan administrators to liability will increase the cost of running ERISA plans, result in fewer being established or reduce the level of benefits, the business group says.

Bridge players occasionally create metaphorical &mokescreoos to try to mislead their opponeniS. If you .were South in ihre8 no-trulfl), how would you plan the play after West leads a low heart and. East puts up the jack? North's hand, with its good five-card suil, is worth 10 poin1s - hence his jump to game. You have eight top tricks; two hearts (given trick one), one diamond and live clubs. If the diamond finesse is working, You will rake in overtricks. But if lhat finesse loses and West shifts to spades, your contract will surely fail. How can you get West 10 continue hearts? Take the first trick with ·your heart ace, not the· queen. Then what will West aSsume? · That hie partner has the queen. So, after a club to Ihe board and a losing diamond finesse, West will undoubledly continue · wilh a low heart. You will take the trick wilh your queen and claim an overtrick. Note that if you win the first tr ick wMh the heart queen, West will know that you also have 1~e ace. So, looking at that dummy, he should find it easy to switch to the spade.lhree, lhe low card saying thBt he has at leas1 one honor in the suit and is trying to wir) lricks in this suit.

With their fifth straight victory at home and fifth in six games overall. the Browns (7-4) stayed within striking distance of first-pl ace Pittsburgh in the AFC North and among the wild-card contenders. And for the first time in t"our weeks, they didn't have to sweat out _the final seconds. The Browns' three previous games had all been decided by three points, two in OT. Last week, they needed an unforgeuable, 51-yard field goal at the end of regulation by Phil Dawson to slip past Baltimore. But when Lewis barreled from the 1-yard line with 5:48 left, the Browns led 27I 0 and were far enough ahead that a late touchdown by the Texans did nothing more than make the score look more respectable. ·The Texans (5-6) weren't able to do much against Cleve land's league-worst defense, which was missing two injured·starters. Houston quarterback Matt Schaub finished 22-of-36 for 256 yards and twa TDs. But he was picked off twice and had several other passes batted down by the Browns' suspect secondary, which lost rookie starting cornerback Eric Wright to a knee injury last week. Dawson, who bounced one through off the left upright and crossbar last week against the Ravens, kicked CINCINNATI - Chad Johnson got into the end zone -at long last, then celebrated his breakthrough by squatting behind a television camera, spinning it around and aiming it at the field. What he saw: A downcast Tennessee Titans team playing itself out of contention. Johnson had a career-high 12 catche s, set the Cincinnati record for career receptions, scored three touchdowns and steadied the Bengals to a 35-6 victory Sunday over the fast-fading Titans. After emerging as one of the NFL's first-half surpri ses, Tennessee (6-5) has lost three in a row 10 slip back into the pack. The offense has been sloppy and the defense has suddenly lost its ability to stop anybody, giving up 28, 34 and 35 points during the slide. It was the same story in Cincinnati. One week after Carson Palmer threw a career-high four interceptions , the Bengals (4-7) had a breakout game behind Johnson, who had gone into a shell and a funk for the past month. Stewing over suggestions that his look-at-me antics were hurting the team, the chatty receiver had stopped talking to the media. Finally, he has something to crow about, if he so chooses. Johnson piled up 103 yards and his first touchdowns since a 51-45 Joss in Cleveland on Sept. 16. In that one, he dived into the Dawg Pound and a got a sticky, eye-stinging shower of beer.
