Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live without an iPod, cellphone, computer or TV?
Could you ever see yourself going out of your way to talk and meet with a person who is homeless or suffering from a disease?
About 40 teens from Western New York, New York City and the Boston area took a week out of their summer vacation to do just that when they visited the Romero Center in Camden, N.J., to serve people living in poverty. Camden is one of the most poverty stricken cities in the United States, with 50 percent of its population not having a high school diploma. What was once a city of businesses and success has turned into a city full of empty factories, violence and destroyed homes.
The teens had the opportunity to visit homeless shelters, work at a children's day camp, inspect homes and more.
Liam McMahon, a junior at St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute, worked at the day care.
"Starting off I was very nervous as well as excited because I didn't know what to expect from the kids, but by the end of the week, the kids opened up so much and I would never be able to tell that they were from poor families because they are just like kids at home," Liam said.
The retreat was about more than just doing service, but learning and trying to understand what it's like to live in poverty. Part of the retreat included no TV or iPods and minimal cellphone usage.
"Without technology, I had time to realize that there is a world outside of Buffalo and that people in that world struggle and need help," Liam said.
"After meeting the people of Camden, I really learned that we are all in the same boat and everyone deserves the gift of hearing the words 'how are you?'," he added.
Caroline Loftus, a senior from Newton, Mass., said this was her second time going on the retreat.
"Although I've already done some of the activities, my service was completely different ," she said. "My first time, I got to interact with people of Camden, but this time I had to observe the houses and I really got to see the condition that some people had to live in"
The teacher at day care center where some of the St. Joe's students worked said there are still some good things that Camden residents can enjoy.
"There's still the baseball stadium and the art center, which hosts concerts and events, but the thing that people need to hold onto is hope," she said.
She talked about some of the children who have grown up and become successful despite their poor living conditions.
"I'm so appreciative for what I have," Liam said. "Even though when I arrived at Camden and felt like I didn't belong, I learned to understand the people and I started to feel accepted as though I were a citizen of Camden."
"This week was all about the experience," Caroline said. "It started with hearing the ways that the media portrays poverty and ended with the experience of real people looking for help."

Louise Graff has checked a pretty big item off her bucket list: spending 47 days rowing 3,000 miles across the Atlantic Ocean as part of a 16-person team.
It's been almost three years since Graff, now 50, rowed from Morocco to Barbados. But earlier this year, Graff was able to relive her adventure when one of the rowing crew members, Canadian author Charles Wilkins, published a book about the experience, "Little Ship of Fools."An accompanying documentary called "The Big Blue" also chronicles the journey. It had a showing a month ago at the Terrace Theater.
The preparation for such endeavor is intense, yet it pales in comparison to the physical, mental and emotional roller coaster Graff underwent for those 47 days.
Graff trained for six months, working out six days a week for two to four hours. She hit the rowing machine, swam, did yoga and weight training.
"I felt as ready as I could be," Graff said. "A lot of it is strength and being physically fit. That is a part of any endurance sport."
But it was much harder to prepare for the mental and emotional toll of such a trip.
"You don't know until you get out there and experience it. You have to find a way to work through the physical pain of what you're asking your body to do and the emotional part is pretty intense.
"At times I was so tired and physically hurting," she said. "It was a roller coaster of emotions."
A love of the water
A self-described "aquaholic," Graff said she's always felt her best on the water. Even growing up on a farm in Kentucky, Graff's had a lifetime interest in swimming, canoeing, kayaking and rafting.
In fact, the water is what drew her to Charleston in 1989. She lives on Johns Island where she owns rental properties, allowing a schedule flexible enough for her aquatic adventures.
The first was in 1997, when Graff and a rowing partner started out in a voyage across the southern Atlantic Ocean. They had to abandon the trip just a couple of days into it when Graff's rowing partner fell ill. Graff put the idea of a lengthy ocean row out of her mind.
That is until she came across a post on row2k.com, a website for rowing enthusiasts. Someone was looking for crew members for a row across the Atlantic Ocean. Graff couldn't resist clicking the link and reading more.
"I could not get it out of my head," she said. "It literally grabbed hold of me."
Ready to row
The boat, named "Big Blue," was 40 feet long and 24 feet wide. It was equipped with sliding seats for four people to row on each side and stocked with food, first aid materials, safety gear and desalinators.
The boat's "pod," about the size of a walk-in closet, had a kitchen, storage and eight bunks. The space was "cozy," Graff said, especially the couple of times the seas were so rough everyone had to pile in and stay safe.
The international team — 11 men and five women — joined together in Morocco. They rowed the coast for five days to get to Tarfaya, Morocco, where they would head out to sea for a grueling and exhilarating adventure of a lifetime. The crew's goal was to break a world record for this route, originally done in 33 days.
The team headed into the ocean on Jan. 15, 2011, rowing until March 4. The route to Port St. Charles, Barbados, is calm but the crew still encountered headwinds and cold temperatures.
From 10 p.m. to sunrise, the boat was relatively quiet, and during her nighttime rows, Graff would soak up the starry skies and intense quiet of the open sea. Rowers would turn on their iPods and row as they listened to music. Graff's iPod was equipped with about 1,800 songs but it was "Crash" by the Dave Matthews Band that was on replay.
"Music helped get us through," Graff said. "You get tired of talking eventually. You get tired of thinking."
Rough seas
The crew rowed two hours at a time and then took a two-hour break. Graff used the breaks to hydrate, eat, clean up and tend to any bruises or blisters, plus try to get a little rest. Quarters were tight. Everyone was tired and sore. Emotions ran high.
Even the kindest of people and the calmest of spirits get rattled on a trip like that. "I probably said some pretty bad words," Graff said with a smile. And she had her share of tantrums, including when she'd had her fill of tuna. "The little things can be blown into big things."
At one point on the trip, the perfect quote for the journey came to Graff and she noted it in her journal: "The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea" from Isak Dinesan, author of "Out of Africa."
"The sea does cure a lot of things," she said. "There were certainly sweat, tears and the sea. We had all those things pretty intensely."
Back on land
As the days ticked off, Graff began to visualize making landfall in Barbados. A group of friends and family, including her niece Siobhan Egan and longtime partner, Noreen Powers, were awaiting her arrival. As the boat approached its final destination, Graff's joy intensified as she could hear the cheers of her friends before she could see them.
In the weeks following her transatlantic adventure, Graff woke up every couple of hours accustomed to her rowing schedule, and had a little trouble keeping her balance after weeks of being tossed at sea. Plus, life was noisy.
"Everything seemed really, really loud," she said. "The cars, people talking, being in a crowded room ... it's an odd sensation. Life on land is very loud."
Earlier this year, Graff was able to relive her adventure when one of the rowing crew members, Canadian author Charles Wilkins, published a book about the experience, "Little Ship of Fools." An accompanying documentary called "The Big Blue" also chronicles the journey.
In his book, Wilkins describes Graff as the "heart and equilibrium" of the crew. "Even when conditions were at their worst and few of us had anything left with which to comfort either our crewmates or ourselves, she would invariably have a little joke or offer a word of encouragement, or would dispense a 10-second back rub or hug," he wrote.
So what's next on Graff's bucket list? Her next chapter is a bit of question mark, she said. But she's still rowing with Dragon Boat Charleston, and she and Wilkins have discussed a row down the Intracoastal Waterway.
On a recent vacation to Belize, Graff learned about a four-day canoe race there. "I was intrigued," Graff said.
And so another bucket list item may be checked off soon.

It appears a mental health defense may be used in the upcoming trial of a Niagara Falls teenager accused of killing a 5-year-old girl he was baby-sitting.
Robert Viola, attorney for defendant John R. Freeman Jr., said Thursday that his notice to prosecutors of his intention to use the psychiatric angle does not mean he is conceding Freeman is guilty. "Not in the slightest," Viola said. "We have to turn every stone."?Freeman, 17, of Sixth Street, is charged with second-degree murder in the Aug. 26 strangulation death of Isabella S. Tennant, of Cheektowaga, in the Sixth Street home of her great-grandparents, Sharon and Hank Lascelle.
A co-defendant, Tyler S. Best, 18, of Barnard Street, Buffalo, allegedly helped Freeman dispose of the girl's body in a stolen garbage tote left in an alley.
The girl's mother, Crystal Walker, had left Isabella with her great-grandparents while she worked at a bar on Niagara Street in the Falls.
The Lascelles called police the next morning to report the child missing. Shortly thereafter, Best came to Police Headquarters with his mother and led officers to the alley where the trash tote was left.
Best has pleaded not guilty to tampering with physical evidence and first-degree hindering prosecution. Both defendants are being held without bail in Niagara County Jail.
The trial date of Feb. 25 may have to be postponed because of Viola's determination to have Freeman examined by a Williamsville doctor who, he said, "has very difficult time constraints."
Dr. Louise Feretti, a neuropsychologist, was one of two doctors recommended after Freeman was examined by Dr. Luther Robinson, a certified pediatric geneticist at Women & Children's Hospital.
Viola said he has worked with Feretti in other cases. "We would really like this doctor involved. She's well-credentialed and very good," he said.
Also very busy. Deputy District Attorney Holly E. Sloma said Viola informed her in a letter Wednesday "that it would take a number of months, five or six months, before the expert of his choice could meet with Mr. Freeman."
Sloma objected to such a long delay, and so did Niagara County Judge Matthew J. Murphy III, who said he could call Feretti and urge her to clear her calendar. Sloma said, "We may then employ a psychiatrist to examine Mr. Freeman." Sloma said she also wants to subpoena all of Freeman's school, hospital and mental health records.
Murphy ordered the attorneys to return to court Jan. 17 to update the situation.

Toddlers are infamous for tantrums and other behavior issues. To encourage listening and cooperation, follow these parenting tips.
Life can be frustrating for toddlers. Though eager to show their independence, toddlers can't always move as swiftly as they'd like or express their needs. This combination can lead to tantrums and misbehavior. But you can teach your toddler to behave well by providing love, attention, praise, encouragement and a degree of routine. Consider these practical parenting tips.
Positive attention tops the list of parenting tips for toddlers. Make sure your displays of affection for your child outnumber any consequences or punishments. Hugs, kisses and good-natured roughhousing reassure your child of your love. Frequent praise and attention also can motivate your toddler to follow the rules.
As your child grows, he or she will display certain personality traits. Some of these are learned, others genetic. Respect your child's developing individuality and don't expect him or her to be just like you. While you're likely to notice certain features of your child's temperament, avoid labeling them — which can encourage bad behavior. Instead, nurture your child's personality by finding ways to help him or her feel confident. A strong-willed child, for instance, has perseverance. Build on your child's strength by encouraging him or her to play with a challenging toy.
Rather than overloading your child with rules from the outset — which might frustrate him or her — prioritize those geared toward safety first and gradually add rules over time. Help your toddler follow the rules by childproofing your home and eliminating as many temptations as possible.

The Hokies made their lone 3-pointer of the first half to cut the lead in half before Bentley and Lucas teamed up to score the next four points of the game and make it a 22-15 contest with 4:10 left. The lead remained seven for the remainder of the half with the teams exchanging score and the Lions took a 28-21 lead into the break.

FORT WORTH, Texas � Josh Hamilton left the Texas Rangers on Thursday and agreed to a $125-million, five-year contract with the Los Angeles Angels.
Rangers general manager Jon Daniels revealed the slugging free-agent outfielder had reached the deal with the AL West rival Angels. Two people familiar with the talks disclosed the amount and length of the contract, speaking on condition of anonymity because the agreement was not yet final.
Hamilton�s $25-million average salary matches Philadelphia first baseman Ryan Howard for the second-highest in baseball, trailing only Alex Rodriguez�s $27.5-million average with the New York Yankees.
Texas had hoped to sign the 2010 AL Most Valuable Player, who led the Rangers to consecutive World Series appearances in 2010 and 2011.
Speaking Thursday after a Rangers� holiday luncheon, Daniels said he had just been informed of the decision by Hamilton�s agent, Michael Moye.
Daniels said he was disappointed �to some degree,� especially since the Rangers never got a chance to match any offer as had been expected during the process � or at least get contacted before he agreed with another team.
�I never expected that he was going to tell us to the dollar what they had and a chance to offer it. Our full expectation, the phone call was going to be before he signed and certainly not after,� Daniels said. �Everybody�s got to make their own calls.�
Hamilton joins a team that spent big last offseason to add first baseman Albert Pujols for $240 million and pitcher C.J. Wilson � Hamilton�s Texas teammate � for $77.5 million. Yet, the Angels disappointed and failed to make the playoffs.
�He�s a tremendous talent, and I think that they�ve shown they�re going to be in on a lot of the best players out there,� Daniels said. �No sugarcoating it, we wanted the player back. And he signed with the Angels. They�re better.�
The agreement came days after the Los Angeles Dodgers added pitchers Zack Greinke and Ryu Hyun-jin, boosting their payroll over $200 million.
Greinke, another offseason target, said he chose the Dodgers over the Rangers.
Hamilton�s addition to the Angels� outfield means Mark Trumbo could be moved to third base or traded. Peter Bourjos and Vernon Wells also are among the outfielders competing for time unless a trade is made.
Manager Mike Scioscia will have an interesting decision to make on where in the batting order to slot in Pujols, AL Rookie of the Year Mike Trout and Hamilton.
Daniels met with Moye last week at the winter meetings in Nashville, Tenn., and had talked about the parameters of a new contract along with numbers. While Daniels wouldn�t get into any specifics, he said his understanding is the deal with the Angels �is certainly more guaranteed money.�
The move keeps Hamilton in the same division with plenty of opportunities to play against his former team � the first one coming fast next season. After the Rangers open with three games at new division foe Houston, they play their first home series April 5-7 against the Angels.
The 31-year-old slugger was considered a risk by some teams because of his history of alcohol and substance abuse, which derailed his career before his surge with the Rangers over the last five seasons.
�Josh has done a lot for the organization; the organization has done a lot for Josh, a lot of things that aren�t public and things of that nature,� Daniels said. �I�m a little disappointment how it was handled, but he had a decision to make, and he made it.�
Hamilton had a career-high 43 home runs with 128 RBIs in 148 games last season, when the Rangers struggled down the stretch and lost the division to Oakland on the final day of the regular season.
Hamilton has hit .304 with 161 homers in his six major league seasons, the first with Cincinnati. In May against Baltimore, he became only the 16th major leaguer with a four-homer game as part of a 5-for-5 night that included a double.
�Josh had indicated recently ... told us that he felt it might be time to move on, but that we were still talking,� said Daniels, who wouldn�t elaborate on the reasons. �We had additional conversations this week that I thought had moved it along in a positive direction but apparently not.�

The 25-year-old, who's best known for playing Carmen Cortez in the family adventure series, says her latest role in Machete Kills is anything but wholesome.
"It's edgy, it's kickass," the newly engaged star tells PEOPLE of her provocative new role in the film, out Oct. 11. "I think every girl wants to be a badass."
"I'm excited for people to see me in a new light without going over the top," she adds, noting that she's spent years slowly trying to shed her child-star image.
"Making that transition takes so long because you don't want to lose your audience and you don't want to shock them too much," Vega explains. "So you try to take little steps at a time and take on different roles."
But her role as Killjoy in Machete Kills – which is directed by Spy Kids helmer Robert Rodriguez – is more of a giant leap forward.
"It doesn't get more badass than a metal bra and leather chaps!" she says about playing a seductive, no-nonsense vixen who's packing some serious heat.
Killjoy, she notes, is "the right-hand woman" to Sofia Vergara's character, Madame Desdemona, who's "the head honcho at the whorehouse."
Fighting for the Role"I wouldn't say Killjoy is good or bad. She works in the brothel and her job is to make sure that her girls are always safe – whether it's a good guy that comes in and causes trouble, or a bad guy who comes in and causes trouble. And Machete might get in the way of that a little bit, so they may have a little fight," Vega teases.
But Vega admits she had to campaign to get the role. When she asked her friend Rodriguez if he had a role for her in the film, things didn't quite go according to plan.
"He was like, 'Oh my gosh, no – I would never let you do that," says Vega, adding that "I'm like a daughter to him."
She made a compelling case. "I was like, 'Look, I'm always playing these younger roles' – which I love and I'm going to milk it for as long as I can because you can only play young roles for so long," she recalls with a laugh.
Making the Transition"But," she adds, "I also want to make that transition and I want to do it right. I don't think people take me seriously when I walk into a room – and I know I can do it."
Rodriguez asked her to come in and read for the role, which was originally intended for an extra.
"I really had to prove myself. I had to show up on set and own it. And if I gave him even a hint of hesitation whatsoever, he would've pulled the plug and said, 'Get out of here!" she says with a laugh. "Winning him over was pretty cool."

Our car covers are designed to protect your vehicle from harmful elements. From indoor car covers that will keep your stored antique or classic car looking new to outdoor car covers that will defend against damaging weather conditions, we offer the best protection at the lowest rates. Our covers will fit any vehicle and budget. Select your vehicle's make, model and year to find the perfect fitting cover today.
Waterproof Covers
Rain and snow contain pollutants that can cause damage to your vehicle. When left out in the rain for long periods of time, your car will become much more prone to rust and corrosion. Heavy snow can also add extreme amounts of pressure to your vehicle's exterior and accelerate the corrosion process.
waterproof cover will act as an impermeable barrier between external water and your vehicle. When purchasing a waterproof cover look for materials that are water-resistant. Fabrics like Endura Plus™ and polypropylene, or fabrics that have been treated with special waterproof coating, are especially effective at repelling water. These materials are also fully breathable. Unlike a tarp, breathable covers are designed to expel trapped water, preventing the growth of mold.
Sunroof Covers
Vehicles that are left out in hot, dry climates, will suffer from the effects of the sun's harmful rays. High temperatures and UV rays can slowly wear away and dull your paint job. The hot sun will also warp and crack your interior dashboard.
Outdoor Covers
When your car, truck, station wagon, van, or SUV sits parked outdoors, there are a number of elements that can scratch, dent, or dull your vehicle's paint and finish. Dust can become abrasive and scratch your vehicle. Bird droppings can stick to your car's paint, making it difficult to remove without damage. Over time, wind, rain and snow can wear away your paint's finish and make it look dull. Trees can drop acorns, sap, and pollen, all which can stain, dent, or scratch your car. With an outdoor car cover, you can protect your vehicle from these and other damaging elements. Outdoor covers should be weather resistant and should feature a multi-layer design to provide total weather protection. Effective outdoor covers are often made from a blend of durable fabrics.
Indoor Covers
You may think that your vehicle is safe from harm in your garage or storage unit; however your vehicle is just as vulnerable to damage parked indoors as it is parked outdoors. Vehicles stored indoors collect dust and dirt, which can become abrasive to your vehicle's finish, causing tiny scratches. Pets and other animals that may hide out in your garage or storage area may damage your vehicle as well. To provide indoor protection for your car, truck, station wagon, van, or SUV from potential damage indoors, shield it with an indoor car cover. Indoor car covers should pamper your vehicle's paint. Look for covers made from non-abrasive materials, like nylon. As always, indoor covers should also be breathable to prevent mold, mildew and the buildup of condensation.
All Our Car Covers Feature:
Selecting a Car Cover Material
When it comes to selecting the proper Car cover material, you must first know what kind of protection you need. If you will be parking your Car outside, look for a cover that offers outdoor weather protection from elements such as rain, sun and snow. If you plan on storing your Car in a garage or enclosed space you will need a cover that protects against dust and dirt. Also take into consideration the climate you live in. If you live in a climate that is prone to rain, select a cover that is waterproof and breathable, like our Titan 3L Basic Waterproof. For hot, dry climates look for a UV-resistant cover, like our Titan Desert Shield. If you want your Car to be protected from numerous outdoor elements, look for a cover that offer all weather protection, like our Titan 5L Ultimate Waterproof and our American Armor Cover.

Walton breaks scoring mark
Junior guard Jontay Walton scored 25 points to become the all-time career scoring leader at Holy Angels in a 61-34 girls basketball win over visiting Nichols.
Walton now has 1,308 points to surpass the record of 1,289 held by Katie Jaus since 2002. Walton has scored 450 points in 18 games. She needs 114 points in the Angels' last eight games to break the single season league record of 522 held by Rae Ann Stilwell of St. Mary's.
"She's shooting so much better now," said coach Fran Snyder. "Last year she had 494 points and only nine threes. This year's she's got 25 already. She's kind of unstoppable. There's no defense for her quickness stealing the ball and getting down the floor."
Holland drops Tonawanda
Freshman Olivia Schmidt had nine of her game-high 25 points as the Holland girls basketball team handed Tonawanda its first loss, 50-37, in ECIC IV. The win gives Holland a split of the season series and a share of first place in the league at 8-1. Schmidt was 8 of 18 from the floor and 7 of 9 from the line. She averages 22 per game.
Joanna McCarthy led Tonawanda with 16 points and 12 rebounds.
Rosa Velazquez had 14 points and seven assists and Rosa Karisha added 13 as Jamestown moved to 9-1 in ECIC I with a 64-44 win over Frontier. Chrisana Green grabbed 14 rebounds for the winners.
Brueckl hits 9 threes
Senior Clark Brueckl connected for a school record nine three-pointers as the Lake Shore boys basketball team beat Pioneer, 80-48, in ECIC III. Brueckl was nine of 12 from three-point range to eclipse the previous record of eight held by Tom Hammond since the early 1990s. He finished with 34 points. Wade Bergum added 21.
"He had one that had to be 30 feet," said Lake Shore coach Dan Gerken. "I'm yelling for him to set it up, and he just lets it fly, and it hit nothing but net. He made the better decision there. We call that play, 'set it up.' He was smiling and enjoying it. He came over one time and said, 'I got it tonight.' "
Amherst clinches tie
Amherst had five players in double figures as it clinched at least a tie for the ECIC III title with an 80-68 win over visiting Cheektowaga. The Tigers (11-0) need to win one of their last three games to win the crown outright. Johnathan Belton had 15 points had 12 assists. It was his fourth game in double figures in assists.
"He makes the right decision over and over again," said coach Chris Kensy. "He's faced double teams, box-and-ones, face guards, and when he's not knocking the shot down, he finds the open man, and more often than not we've been cashing them in."

Dear Parents,
Your child's college education is one of the largest expenditures you will make in the next few years; it is also one of the most important.
At Hamilton College, we're committed to making your child's education affordable. In fact, we're one of fewer than four dozen U.S. colleges and universities that not only meets the full demonstrated financial need of all students, but also admits students without considering their families' ability to pay. This year, that commitment means we will provide more than $38 million in scholarship aid to about half of our students. Our average financial aid award is more than $45,553.
If our financial aid methodology shows that you can pay only a small percentage of our tuition and fees, our financial aid package will cover the difference for all four years at Hamilton. And for those who qualify for little or no financial assistance, our financial aid team will work with you to explore the best
options for your family to finance the gift of a Hamilton education.
We take very seriously the investment you are making in your child's education, and we hope to have the opportunity to demonstrate that commitment to you in the future.
Most sincerely,
Monica Inzer
Vice President and Dean of Admission and Financial Aid
If your family would like to receive more information from Hamilton, please provide us with your child's contact information.

Your thoughts on Sergei Fedorov
Posted 28 July 2012 - 07:20 PM
Man, I did love to watch Sergie. Like someone else said, he had to be your favorite player at some point if you were a Wings fan. Guy was a friggin thoroughbred that brought you out of your seat when he stepped onto the ice. Pavs reminds me of him in that respect.

All this fricking debate about how he left for money...etc...let's revisit the situation.....December 2002, Holland offers Fedorov a 5 year $55M contract, Fedorov asks if they can wait until the end of the season because he is going through a divorce and in the process of hiring a new agent....fast forward to July 2003, Fedorov goes to Holland and wants the deal, Holland says the deal is off the table and now there is a 4 year deal for less money (I forgot the amount)...Fedorov wants the original deal....Holland says no deal, Anaheim offers Fedorov the same 4 year deal and off he went...He didn't leave for more money....he just wanted the offer he was offered in December... Fedorov #91, to the rafters!
Sigh, incorrect. Fedorov was never offered $55m. Not even close. As for what he eventually settled on: he was given $40m over five years by the Ducks, and chose that over an offer of $32m over four years from the Wings. That said, I haven't a clue why you think your story would make him look good, as you essentially said that he was ultimately given the same offer from the Wings and he was given by the Ducks but chose to go with the latter out of spite. That doesn't make him look like a standup guy.
I also see that you conveniently left out his holdout in the '97-'98 season.

Fedorov is the reason I have become a Red Wings fan. I used to watch him play for CSKA in Moscow and followed him to Detroit.
Great hockey player. No need to say more.

Thats awesome! You got to witness a man get freedom in a harsh time, I only read about it after he was a Wing. I hope they make the movie someday.
Posted 28 July 2012 - 11:43 PM
You must have misread my post.
The discussion was about why Sawchuk was in the rafters, despite not playing his whole career in Detroit. I said Sawchuk was one of the 5 best goalies ever. Sure, Fedorov was one of the best forwards in his era, but he's not even one of the 20 best forwards in history.
When Sergei was in his prime, can you really say that? I've asked several people who they would rather have in their prime, Fedorov or Datsyuk. 90% of them said Fedorov.
Well, hes not on the hockey news best 100 of all time. Yzerman is #78. Tough argument we have here.
That's surprising. Fedorov was a phenomenal talent, comparable to Pavel Bure.

If your talking both ends of the ice, Neither of those two players were even close to Federov............
Go to wikipedia and read about Fedorov. If Scotty Bowman, Mario Lemieux, Wayne Gretzky, and Steve Yzerman all say he was one of the best, thats good enough for me.

Maybe people were too young to remember or simply don't remember that time very well, but Fedorov was 90's Wings hockey. Maybe its because he was more flashy than others or because he was that good, but Fedorov was always the first name to come up when talking about the Wings back then.

IIRC, Ted Lindsay didn't leave on the best of terms either. In fact, he didn't want to have anything to do with the Wings for decades after retirement and reconciled only relatively recently.
Absolutely not.... I don't think of Fedorov, when I am looking up at the following players' jerseys:
Yzerman, Sawchuk, Delvecchio, Lindsay, Abel, Howe.... and soon Lidstrom.
He doesn't fit with that group of esteemed players. If he had stayed with the club and finished his career out with some sort of respect and dignity, then possibly then he would be considered, but he ended up leaving for money.
As far as Dats and Z go.... they still have several years until they retire, so the jury is still out, but if they continue on the path they have already set, I would say there is a 60/40 chance.
So if Fedorov's jersey deserves to hang on the rafters otherwise, the way he left shouldn't have to be a disqualifying factor.

LA Times:
Fedorov, who has helped carry the Russian men's hockey team to the semifinals of the Olympic tournament with a goal and five points in four games, said recently he wants the Red Wings to trade him. He would not say what he will do if the Red Wings match the Carolina offer. "So far I'm still just at the Olympic Games and I'm thinking about that," he said. "I think when I get there I will cross that bridge. . . . I told Ken Holland [the Red Wings' general manager] that I can play somewhere else."

Feds left for his own reasons, I don't begrudge him that.
The Norris family had done some real damage to this team when these players left and their leaving was more about the team treating them like crap, then them wanting to go elsewhere.
Feds took way too many shifts/games off, and left for his reasons. Which I said I am fine with, but the rafters at the Joe, and wherever they end up, are for an exclusive club of Team first guys who embodied what it meant to be a wing.
Draper deserves his number retired more than Feds!
Feds was a phenomenal talent, all around beast, but the Wings only retire a very select few, the Perfect Human and THE Captain were the first retired in a long time and I think we may see another gap again.
Dats and Z are great, but they are not Lids and Stevie Y.
"The more I know about people - the better I like my dog." - Mark Twain
"When I was looking for a captain, I wanted a guy with the Red Wings crest tattooed on his chest," said former Detroit coach Jacques Demers, who named Yzerman captain in 1986. "Steve Yzerman was that guy."

St. Patrick's Day falls on Sunday this year, giving Americans all weekend to celebrate and spend a little more green than last year.
Retailers, bars and restaurants will reap the benefits as spending is expected to reach $4.7 billion, up slightly from $4.6 billion last year, according to the National Retail Federation.
St. Patrick's Day is the smallest of all the consumer holidays in terms of how much is spent, but it provides a launching pad for spring spending. The average person celebrating the holiday will spend just over $35 on attire, decor, food and drinks.
Eight in 10 Americans will wear a bit of green to avoid the traditional pinch. Nearly 30 percent will attend a party at a bar or restaurant, and 20 percent will attend a private party.
The holiday comes just two weeks before Easter, one of the biggest spending holidays of the spring. Easter is March 31.
The firm
Are you lying down for this?
Mattress Firm plans to build another store less than half a mile from four other mattress stores in West Ashley, three of them Mattress Firms. The proposed store has the same address of an existing Mattress Firm clearance store at the Shoppes of West Ashley, but the planned store is on a vacant outparcel.
The mattress store submitted plans last week to the city of Charleston to erect a new 4,000-square-foot shop at 946 Orleans Road in West Ashley. That's on an outparcel in front of the Shoppes at West Ashley, where World Market, Party City and Bed, Bath & Beyond are located. Mattress Firm opened a new store in October in the old Party City site on Sam Rittenberg Boulevard, just across from another one in Harrell Square.
The plan must go before the city's Design Review Board. No date has been announced for the next meeting.
Running in
A new sporting goods shop in Mount Pleasant has announced an opening date. Fleet Feet Sports will open its 100th store in the Whole Foods-anchored Patriots Plaza at U.S. Highway 17 and Houston Northcutt Boulevard on Thursday. It's owned and operated by Mount Pleasant residents Chris and Amy Minkel and will be the chain's third store in South Carolina. Look for giveaways and activities as part of the opening festivities March 14-17.
Diving in
A local swimming pool firm that specializes in cleaning and repairs is diving into the retail market. ASP — America's Swimming Pool Co., which opened in 2006, will open a full-service store Friday at 769 Folly Road on James Island to serve pool owners who take care of their own pools, local ASP owner and operator Wayne Gable said. A grand opening will take place Saturday.
Just for kicks
The gym 9Round Kickboxing recently opened a second location at 1890 Sam Rittenberg Blvd. in West Ashley. Its first gym opened in 2011 at 569 Belle Station Blvd. off Long Point Road in Mount Pleasant.
Participants move to nine workout stations in a 30-minute format without class times that incorporates functional, interval, cardiovascular and circuit-training regimens. The owner is Daniel Woodrum.
On the way
A new Subway is set to open in a former Kentucky Fried Chicken at 335 Folly Road on James Island. The restaurant moved from the nearby James Island Shopping Center and is awaiting city permit approval before it can open.
Also, a new restaurant called Falyn's on Forty-one on S.C. Highway 41 in Mount Pleasant is in the works. It's Facebook page says it's opening soon, but there is no word on the date and no one from the business responded to emails and phone calls last week.

Summerville earned a 21-7 victory in a rematch with Ashley Ridge to advance to the second round of the Division 1-AAAA playoffs.
The Green Wave (10-2) will host Boling Springs, a 48-41 winner over Gaffney, next week for the second round. For Ashley Ridge (4-8), the loss means the end of its season.
It was a tight game until late in the final quarter.
"I was nervous the whole 48 minutes," Summerville coach John McKissick said. "I thought they out played us much of the night and we never did stop their running back. I'm thankful for the win but we need to play better next week."
The first half was a pretty even contest but both teams drew a lot of penalties. Summerville and Ashley Ridge finished the half with roughly 125 yards gained but the Green Wave doubled the Swamp Foxes' trips into the end zone. Running back Tyler Garland carried much of the load for Ashley Ridge while the Green Wave relied heavily on running backs Chris Felder and Jacerie Ponder.
Felder and Ashley Ridge's Sean White traded touchdown runs from inside the 10-yard line and then Johnston McCurry made a diving catch into the end zone to complete a 37-yard scoring play that gave Summerville a one-score lead entering half time.
The third quarter was a defensive battle as Summerville only managed to gain 10 yards and Ashley Ridge only gained 19.
Both teams moved the ball some in the final 12 minutes, but Summerville made some big defensive stands.
Following an interception by Swamp Fox defensive back Kendall Felder, Ashley Ridge drove to the Green Wave 13 and had four shots at the end zone with just more than 4 minutes remaining. But the drive ended with a fourth-down sack by linebacker Mac McCurry.
On Summerville's ensuing possession, Chris Felder broke a tackle and rushed 82 yards to set up his own 3-yard TD run with 1:48 remaining.
"We've had opportunities all year but in some games we haven't been able to make plays when we need to and that is what happened tonight," Ashley Ridge coach Kenny Walker said. "Penalties hurt us and other things so we were scrambling a bit at the end but basically Summerville made the plays and we didn't."
Felder led all rushers in the game with approximately 150 rushing yards and the two TDs on 16 carries. Garland carried 23 times for approximately 120 yards.
While Summerville quarterback Sawyer Bridges only completed one pass in the first half, he completed 3 of 6 pass attempts in the second half to finish with approximately 90 passing yards. Johnston McCurry and tight end Sean Smith both had two receptions.
Summerville made a dozen tackles in the backfield, including three sacks. Leaders on the defensive side of the ball included Kawuan Cox, Matt Powell and Mac McCurry. Powell also recovered a fumble on a kickoff when a kick came of the kicker's foot bizarrely and skipped into an Ashley Ridge blocker.
Ashley Ridge 0 7 0 0–7
Summerville 7 7 0 7–21
S – Chris Felder 7 run (David Kennedy kick)
A – Sean White 6 run (Matt Gable kick)
S – Johnston McCurry 37 pass from Sawyer Bridges (Kennedy kick)
S – Felder 3 run (Kennedy kick)

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Similar to the case with contract research organizations (CROs), biotech and pharma companies looking for assistance with their bioprocessing projects often turn to a contract manufacturing organization (CMO). But just like with CROs, the number of CMOs from which to choose and the range of services offered can lead to lots of head scratching and caffeine intoxication among client company project managers.
GEN recently conducted a roundtable with several leading CMOs. The goal was to come up with some questions and answers that would help you find the right CMO for your specific needs.
Dr. Lambalot: There are several reasons for sourcing from a CMO. For early phase start-up companies, the primary reason may be access to platform technologies, capital equipment, facilities and manufacturing expertise that are beyond their current financial reach. For maturing companies, there may be a need to augment internal early phase capacity with larger scale capacities suitable for supplying larger clinical trials or readying for commercial launch. For established biopharma companies with commercial products, there may be a strategic need to add redundancy to their supply chain to assure supply to a growing patient population.
In all cases, partnering with a competent CMO can add value to a company's manufacturing strategy and ensure a continued robust supply of clinical or commercial materials.
Mr. Downey: Bluntly, the earlier the better! For example, for a commercial API or drug product, allow:
Then serious engagement should begin 13 (best case)/22 (worst case) months ahead of when you require commercial supply. As a conservative rule of thumb, I would engage, at least, 16 months ahead of first product requirement.
Engaging with a strategic partner, i.e., an already approved key CMO, or a truly integrated CMO (e.g., one that can supply both the API and finished drug product), can significantly reduce this time and cost, also mitigating risk.
Dr. Ruchatz: The decision when to outsource depends on the capabilities and the needs of a product-developing company. Key benefits for using a CMO include tapping into its expertise and taking advantage of its track record and capacity, which enables speed, access to certain technologies, and the option of deferred investment.
Outsourcing is already very often part of an overall strategic plan. Many biotech companies want to show positive results of their compounds as early as possible. Since they do not have the capability to quickly produce GMP-grade products for the clinical stage they use CMO services for cell-line generation and process development as well as supply of GMP Phase I material.
Other companies like large pharmaceutical companies have their own manufacturing capabilities and want to debottleneck their process development or clinical production with an option to retransfer the process back to their own facilities in a later stage of the life cycle.
Big Pharma companies often need flexible access to a second source as risk mitigation or as a contingency approach. This is important especially in the launch phase of a product to guarantee continuous product supply to the patients. The expertise in lean and efficient commercial manufacturing using state-of-the-art plants also makes a CMO a strong long-term partner for companies during the entire life cycle of a product.
Mr. Head: If a company does not have internal R&D capabilities, the full array of services offered by a CMO from cell-line development to finished product should be engaged. Companies with small R&D capabilities should seek the expertise of a CMO once proof of concept is established. This structure will ensure the early identification of problems and the necessary response strategies to address them.
Mr. Weiler: Companies considering outsourcing services to a CMO must first determine whether they need tactical support, strategic support, or both. A relationship often starts with a tactical approach and transforms into a strategic partnership.
On the tactical side, companies start to outsource due to internal capacity constraints or if the projects requires a technology or product outside of their core competency. In this case, the company would look to source that specific piece of business out to a CMO, but keep the total solution in-house.
In the strategic approach, a company would be looking to partner with a CMO when they realize that they can reduce the complexity of their supply chain and focus on their core competence as this will increase their efficiency. Finally, this can also mean outsourcing support for anything from different key materials all the way through to full process development. Unique to this approach is the CMO being fully integrated into the solution.
The point at which the consideration of working with a CMO is made will vary with each customer's situation. Regardless, the range of CMO experience in providing support and/or creating solutions is expansive and affords the customer with a wealth of opportunity.
Mr. Podesta: This depends on the company, their needs, and the device that they are using to deliver their drug to the patient. If one assumes the required custom device has some modest level of complexity, getting a CMO involved early in Phase II is ideal. Even if there is an existing design team, getting a CMO involved early in Phase II provides the best long-term benefits. Throughout the design phases, decisions are made that have a significant impact on timing and cost.
To create a robust device, one must work closely with the design engineers, leverage user study information, and incorporate sound principles and innovative solutions. Designing for manufacturing becomes more restricted as the device moves along the development life cycle. Thus, it is imperative for the CMO to become involved as soon as possible.
When a project is late into Phase II, the design is typically 90% frozen and acceptance for modifications is extremely limited, even if those modifications can dramatically reduce costs. Most of the changes at that point are usually subtle. The opportunity to make significant impacts, in both cost and timing, is lost.
Using sound design for manufacturing techniques early in Phase II has shown to have the best long-term benefits. It is the best time to consider engaging the services of a CMO. It is the ideal time to consolidate or eliminate parts, remove secondary action from tools, and convert assembly techniques to simpler methods.

The pop star, actress and American Idol judge, 44, has split from her boyfriend of 2½ years, choreographer and dancer Casper Smart, a source confirms to PEOPLE.
"They initially split about six weeks ago, but that can take a little time to extricate. But they've definitely broken up," says the source, adding, "The relationship had just run its course."
The source also says, "Jennifer is actually doing really well and working hard."
There had been hints in recent weeks that the relationship was on the rocks, with a source telling PEOPLE that the couple had "hit a rough patch" a couple of months ago.
More recently there had been reports claiming that Smart, 27, a former backup dancer for Lopez, had sent Instagram photos and steamy messages to somebody else.
Lopez and Smart first got together in late 2011. At the time, a source told PEOPLE it was "a fun fling" and "not meant to turn into anything more," but the couple stayed together.
Lopez was always noncommittal, however, when asked if she would get married for a fourth time.
"I don't know. We'll see. I don't know," she said in January. "You know, I've always believed in that institution. I believe in it, but it is difficult. I've had my challenges, but at the same time I believe in love, and I think that is the main thing."

A former Williamsville South student who claims to have contracted skin herpes at a high school wrestling tournament last year has sued his opponent, three high schools and the doctors who cleared the other student to wrestle him.
The top-seeded wrestler beat his Iroquois High School opponent in five minutes to win his weight class, earning him a spot in the state qualifier tournament. But his three winning matches at the Section VI Class A championship wrestling tournament at Lockport's Starpoint High School in February 2011 turned out to be his last competition after the herpes gladiatorum virus put a hold on him.
The Iroquois student knew he was infected with the herpes virus and concealed an active outbreak, according to the lawsuit filed in State Supreme Court.
As a result, the Williamsville wrestler contracted the virus from him and became sick, the lawsuit said.
The young man, who has since graduated from Williamsville South, said he suffered pain and embarrassment and will continue to suffer from the virus for the rest of his life.
His lawsuit listed sores, headaches, scarring, dizziness and sleep disturbance, among other complaints.
The former Williamsville South wrestler and his parents are also suing the other student's parents, the New York State Public High School Athletic Association, as well as Williamsville South, Starpoint and Iroquois high schools.
The lawsuit alleges that the Iroquois student's parents knew their son was infected and allowed him to compete in the tournament anyway.
The lawsuit alleges that coaches and officials at the high schools allowed the infected wrestler to participate in the tournament "even though he had obvious open wounds, rashes and/or blisters on his body."
The high schools put the Williamsville wrestler "in imminent hazard" by failing to provide properly trained coaches, physicians and other individuals to see to the safety and well-being of students and take reasonable steps to avoid the incident, according to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit said a physician who treated the Iroquois student before the wrestling tournament filled out a medical release form allowing him to wrestle.
Another doctor, who served as the tournament physician, performed skin checks on both wrestlers but failed to properly examine the Iroquois wrestler and allowed him to participate, according to the lawsuit.
In court papers, the Iroquois student denied that he knew he had an active outbreak and his parents also denied knowing their son was infected on the date of the tournament.
The Iroquois student's doctor, in court papers, said any injuries suffered by the former Williamsville South wrestler "were not brought about by any negligence or malpractice" by the doctor.
Lawyers Jacob A. Piorkowski, who represents the former Williamsville South athlete, and Leonard Berkowitz, who represents the Iroquois wrestler, both declined to comment on the lawsuit.
A pretrial conference before State Supreme Court Justice Patrick H. NeMoyer is scheduled for next month.
A week after the wrestling tournament in Lockport, the Erie County Health Department issued an advisory about several cases of skin infection among the high school wrestlers who participated in the tournament. The highly transmissible herpes skin infection is common among wrestlers, the advisory noted. The department advised health care providers to be vigilant in examining and treating wrestlers.
Wrestlers from a dozen high schools competed in the tournament at Starpoint.
The athletic association replied in court papers that the wrestler, who was 18 at the time, knew the hazards and dangers and assumed the risks in participating in the tournament. The association also cited a signed waiver. The association also claimed as a defense that any injuries also were caused in whole or in part by the Williamsville wrestler's own negligence.
Courts in another part of the state have previously dealt with a similar lawsuit.
A high school wrestler from Long Island sued his opponent and the school district after allegedly contracting herpes during a wrestling match. In that case, a trial judge denied the school district's request to dismiss the case without a trial, but an appeals court in Brooklyn reversed that ruling and dismissed the complaint. By engaging in a sport, a participant consents to "commonly appreciated risks," the appeals court said.
"By its nature, wrestling involves close contact between participants, and it follows that diseases transmitted through skin-to-skin contact may result," the appellate court said in its 2009 ruling.
The Long Island school district and wrestling coach informed students about the risk of contracting herpes and had distributed a packet of information about the virus and other infections.
The former Williamsville South wrestler and his parents said in their lawsuit that a prudent person would not have competed against the Iroquois wrestler if fully informed of the risks.
Because he was not properly informed of the risks of wrestling his opponent at the tournament, the Williamsville wrestler said, he did not give a valid informed consent, according to the lawsuit.
