on December 3, 2012 - 5:49 PM
Let the countdown begin.
The 24th annual First Night Buffalo kicked off Monday at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center with a sneak peak of this year's lineup.
The holiday tradition is an alcohol- and drug-free event that offers family-friendly activities to ring in the New Year.
"We encourage all of you – kids, parents, everyone – to come out and enjoy this event. Celebrate the beginning of 2013 together at this wonderful alcohol- and drug-free event," said Dr. Michael W. Cropp, president and chief executive officer of Independent Health.
First Night draws about 5,000 people each year, organizers said, and is presented by the Independent Health Foundation. The event will be held from 5 to 10 p.m. on New Year's Eve at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center.
The top floor of the center will be turned into an amusement park with carnival rides. Downstairs, each room will feature activities and entertainment, including comedian and stunt man Wacky Chad, Terry Buchwald's tribute to Elvis Presley, the Red Trouser Show, Magician Wade Live and juggler Nels Ross, who gave a brief demonstration at Monday's kickoff ceremony.
Other First Night activities include laser tag, a toddler area, music and a grand finale balloon drop.
On display will be all 646 entries from an artwork and poetry contest for school-age children throughout Western New York. The contest was sponsored by Western New York United Against Drug and Alcohol Abuse, and the young people were directed to write about or create a piece of art related to a drug-free lifestyle.
Twenty-one schools and organizations were represented. Eighteen winners were chosen, including Jennifer Orie, an 11th-grader at Nardin Academy, who won third prize in her age group for a poem, "A Drug-Free Life."
"It's telling a story of a boy growing up. His dad was an alcoholic, and the boy started drinking, too. But when he was older, he realized that was not the life he wanted to live and changed," she said.
Fellow Nardin student Annie Schenk, a 10th-grader, won second place for her poem about a drug-free future. It was about a young man who was likable until he started doing drugs.
"As he got older, everyone remembered they used to know a great person," she said. "Now they don't."
Kindergarten to fourth-grade artwork winners included: Jacob Alvira (first place), Emma Rinn (second) and Caleb Stoehr (third). All attend A.J. Schmidt Elementary School in Angola. Poetry winners from the same age group were: Ethan Simmons (first place), Isaiah Reed (second) and Mikayla Blume (third) of Our Lady of Victory in Lackawanna. Ethan and Isaiah represented the Valley Community Association.
Fifth-grade to eighth-grade artwork winners were: first place, Alissa McFadden; second place, Noah Carpino; third place, Nathan Allen from Big Tree Elementary in Hamburg. Alissa and Noah represented the Valley Community Association. Poetry winners from the same group were: first place, Jacob Gleave of St. Stephen School, Grand Island; second place, Joseph Lema of Waterfront Elementary; and third, Katie Taylor of A.J. Schmidt Elementary.
Artwork winners from the ninth to 12th grade category included: first place, Gabby Bonerb; second place, May Ren; third place, Emilee Chiavetta, all of Immaculata Academy in Hamburg. McKaila McKenney of Leonardo DaVinci High School was the first-place poetry winner for the ninth-grade to 12th-grade category.
Mayor Byron W. Brown, who also attended the kickoff ceremony, said, "We should all be proud of this event. This is one of the longest running drug and alcohol free celebrations in the entire U.S."
Advance First Night tickets are $8 and include all rides, attractions and activities. They can be purchased at all local Wegmans locations. Tickets are $10 at the door. Children 2 and under are admitted free. Free parking will be available at the Fernbach and Main Place Mall parking ramps.

The owner of a used car dealership in Shillington has been charged with theft and related offenses.
Detectives say Troy Wible, the owner of Second Chance Auto Sales, sold vehicles on consignment without reimbursing the original owners.
He's also accused of taking money for titles and transfers without notifying PennDOT.
Detectives say the scheme started in December at Wible's dealership in the 2300 block of Lancaster Pike.
In all, investigators say 61 customers, four businesses and two lending companies lost more than 950 thousand dollars.

If people thought like you when rockets were still around "who needs to put metal in space, what is metal anyways", then we wouldn't have any of this modern technology due to satellites or the ability to have things like very accurate, very up to date maps and navigation and so on.

Maybe better rocket engines, maybe more efficient fusion reactors that run more than 3 minutes and can actually be used for real, maybe better techniques to sculpt very small objects like circuits and nanomachines.

Paperwork is done, Now time to pack
We have finished the 40 plus documents that we needed for our first trip. It was one hard week completing them but thanks to all who helped. We have now started packing for our first trip. We will be leaving Thursday night to go to Memphis. On Friday we will fly to Atlanta and then Moscow. The whole family is very excited and nervous about the journey ahead of us. Please continue to pray for us as we prepare to meet the child that God has chosen for us.

One of the many reasons I love these days of the liturgical year is that we get to revisit the Acts of the Apostles, not just on Sundays, but throughout each week as well. Even if you are unable to go to Mass every day, look at the readings from the Acts. You can find them at the U.S. Bishops' website.
Attributed to the author of the Gospel of Luke, this book is fascinating and should provide a measure of comfort to those who worry about today's Church. Right from the beginning, the Church – the community of believers – faced and overcame many obstacles and challenges, both external and internal.
Today's reading shows us how the disciples of Jesus found themselves making decisions after his ascension. This is the feast of the apostle Matthias who, according to Msgr. Robert Ritchie, rector of St. Patrick's Cathedral, should be known as "the patron saint of Plan B." If you read Acts 1-15-17, 20-26, you'll see why.
Judas, who had been selected by Jesus as one of the 12 apostles, betrayed the Lord and hanged himself. Peter knew he had to find a replacement and brought this to the brothers and sisters. Jesus wasn't going to make this appointment directly, so they had to come up with an alternate plan. They nominated two candidates, all prayed, and then they cast lots. "The lot fell upon Matthias, and he was counted with the eleven apostles." Plan B.
Certainly Msgr. Ritchie is dealing with Plan B himself these days during the Cathedral's restoration. He's probably on Plan K. We in the Archdiocesan Catechetical Office certainly find ourselves having to change plans, too. In fact, everybody has to go to Plan B or beyond at some point in his or her life.
The next time you find yourself in such a position, don't forget to ask St. Matthias for help.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. — Today is the final day to file for the 2012 primary election — and the local races are definitely heating up, with Aaron Katz and Frank Wright both putting in papers Thursday for IVGID, along with another Democratic candidate for the local county commission seat.

• County Commission, District 1: John Breternitz
• School Board, District A: Dan Carne
Here is a list of people who have filed for the above races, as of press time end of day Thursday:

Its big, green, scary and, apparently, very tasty.
Alligator meat has become a popular seafood in South Carolina, with South Carolinians snapping up the chewy, pork-like meat almost as fast as stores can put it in their freezers.
Gator meat, which comes almost exclusively from the tail, is typically a by-product of processing. Gators are wanted more for their leathery hide, usually to make clothing and shoes, according to Mark Kelly, a sales representative at Inland Seafood, a distributor in Atlanta, Ga., and the largest distributor in the Southeast.
Lucius Moultrie, owner of Palmetto Seafood Company in Columbia, said he started selling gator around 2009 in one- and five-pound packages.
David Young, owner of Roastfish & Cornbread in Hilton Head, said the restaurant typically sells 20 to 25 pounds of gator a week during the summer. He said few places in Hilton Head sell gator meat, but the food is popular among tourists, especially with kids.
According to Young, gator is prepared in a variety of ways, but it is typically served as deep-fried nuggets. Young said his restaurant also sells the meat in a smoked pork/gator sausage and as ribs. He also has a recipe for shrimp and gator chili.
Mike Godbout, general manager of Sellsfish Premium Seafood in Summerville, said he started selling gator in 2011 and has seen sales gradually rise. On a good week, he said, he sells about 30 pounds.
Why has gator meat become so popular? Moultrie, Young and Godbout cited credited the recent rise in popularity to History Channels Swamp People, which documents the life of a gator-hunting family in Pierre Part, La.
Paula Huff, who co-owns Huffs Seafood on James Island alongside her husband, Bill, had trouble acquiring and selling the meat during last years recession because gator farms in states like Georgia and Louisiana stopped harvesting the animals until the economy improved.
Good news for the Huffs and other seafood markets arrived when Sen. C. Bradley Hutto, D-Orangeburg, proposed R167/S714, the Captive Alligator Propagation Act, in May 2013.
The act was signed into law by Gov. Nikki Haley April 14, making regulated gator farming, the process of carefully raising gators specifically for slaughter and processing, legal in South Carolina.
The Huffs have been selling gator for a decade. Gator, Paula Huff said, can be cooked just like almost any other meat. She said a number of her customers come from outside the Charleston area to buy gator from her.
Jay Butfiloski, the Department of Natural Resources alligator program coordinator, said that no special licensing is required to sell and distribute gator in the state, though standard inspections and regulation from the state Department of Health and Environmental Control are required. However, special licensing is required to privately hunt gator in the state, and hunters are subject to a number of restrictions. The recently passed law, Butfiloski said, subjects gator farmers to special licensing and inspection from the Department of Agriculture.
Gator meat sells for about $12 to $14 per pound. According to Moultrie, thats roughly double from when he first sold it. Despite the high price, he said, the meat is not always available because of its high demand.
David Szam, a sales representative at Lowcountry Shellfish, a distributor in Charleston, said the product is especially popular at gullah restaurants across the state.
Most of Lowcountry Shellfishs meat comes from a gator farm in Crescent City, La., and the distributor provides for about 35 locally owned restaurants and fish markets and dozens of chains and franchises.
Szam said that gator as a food is a love it or hate it thing, but most people try it anyway for the novelty of eating something exotic.

It's the kind of small, outdated building that would probably be demolished without much thought in another city.
But the Engine House at northeast corner of The William Enston Home sits in Charleston, and it recently has emerged from a $22,244 renovation.
That's a lot of money for what's essentially going to be a storage shed, but it also helps set in motion the renovation of one of the campus' main landmarks, Memorial Hall.
While the property at 900 King St. is well north of Charleston's typical tourist trails, The William Enston Home is one of the city's great late-19th-century landmarks.
The 12.1 acres are dominated by a series of Romanesque Revival cottages designed, as the sign on the stone entrance gate says, "to make old age comfortable."
Back then, "old age" was considered to be 45 years and up.
But the homes also were designed to be self-sufficient, a new and healthier kind of living. Part of that meant a then-state-of-the-art water and sewer system in a city that would not form a municipal water company until a few decades later.
While the Charleston Housing Authority bought the complex two decades ago to preserve its traditional affordable housing, it also is working to preserve the rest of the story.
That story includes two of the more obscure but interesting buildings on campus: its Water Tower and Engine House.
The Water Tower stored potable water that was drawn from a well with help from a 16-foot-tall windmill, which has been gone for years. There also was an engine in the Engine House to pump water during periods of no wind.
Don Cameron, president of the authority, notes how unique and progressive the homes were for their time.
"It had indoor plumbing when it opened in the 1880s," he says. "Not a lot of Charleston had indoor plumbing in the 1880s."
Each of the cottages also had its own cisterns and collected rainwater to flush toilets and for other nondrinking use.
Marty Thomas, the authority's capital fund manager, oversaw the major 1995 renovation and the Engine House work, which included roof repair, window replacement, new wooden doors and repointing the masonry for stability.
Its completion will allow the authority to use it to store equipment now kept inside Memorial Hall, the last piece in need of renovation.
The hall was built as a tribute to Enston, whose 1860 bequest made everything possible. But it has stood largely unused for decades.
Cameron says the authority would like to renovate it for public meeting space on the first and second floors.
Cameron says a recent report from Glenn Keyes Architects provides a solid overview of the building's strengths and weaknesses.
The good news is the hall is structurally sound, and Keyes estimates it needs almost $1 million in work on its exterior and another $667,000 inside, including installation of an elevator that would make the second floor accessible.
"Those numbers are not scary," Cameron says. "It is a big number, but we were talking in the arena of $1.5 million a few years ago. We've got a lot more knowledge than we had and the number didn't skyrocket."
Cameron says the authority soon will approach the city as well as the William Enston Trust, which no longer has legal ties to the property but helps 19 families live there, about how to pay for the work that would put the hall back in shape.
And that would be good news. The William Enston Home was built in four phases (1880s, 1920s, 1932 and 2007), so it's natural that this one-of-a-kind property would be restored over as many phases.
"More than the sum of its parts, it is the overall scheme of the Enston Home that is of interest and value," a Historical American Building Survey report concludes. "A late-19th-century interpretation of a medieval English village, combined with then-current notions of healthful suburban living, the Enston Home is an early and possibly unique example of privately funded, nondenominational American philanthropic housing."

Social networking giant, Facebook, is being sued by Rembrant Social Media LP, a patent-holding company. Rembrant has brought on this lawsuit on behalf of deceased Dutch programmer Jozef Everardus Van Der Meer.
The lawsuit was filed in Eastern District of Virginia, one of the fastest patent agendas in the country. The suit cites patent infringements against Facebook and another social media company, AddThis. They claim that these two companies had taken ideas from Van Der Meer's patents of 'Method and Apparatus for Implementing a Web Page Diary' (Facebook's status update system) and 'System and Method for Generating, Transferring and Using an Annotated Universal Address' (Facebook's 'like' button).
Based on legal documents filed in court, Van Der Meer was granted these patents in 1998, six years before Facebook's existence. The Dutch programmer used these ideas for his social diary network, Surfbook. The patents were given to Rembrant when Van Der Meer passed away in 2004.
According to the papers, Facebook was aware of Ver Der Meer's patents as it was referred to in their own patent applications for social networking technology.
"We believe Rembrandt's patents represent an important foundation of social media as we know it, and we expect a judge and jury to reach the same conclusion based on the evidence," said attorney Tom Melsheimer, who is representing Rembrandt in the lawsuit.
In 2012, 20 patent lawsuits were filed again Facebook. One in particular, Yahoo v. Facebook, in which Yahoo claimed that social networking technology it had first patented was the foundation for Facebook's entire social networking model, was later quietly settled.

Do We Really Need a New Stadium?
Posted 10 February 2013 - 01:35 PM
Posted 10 February 2013 - 02:26 PM
Doesn't have to do with age, look at the Palace which is still a nice arena (un-fortunately its not downtown). It is just obsolete. Renovation wouldn't make sense economically. Although it would be nice to keep the tradition of the Joe, the joe wasn't built in a way that allows for easy renovation.
Posted 10 February 2013 - 03:20 PM
"Stadium"? No, but the Wings could use a new arena. Just make sure to bring the boards from the Joe though.

I was at the game yesterday. I can't stand the concourse. If you want to get up and not miss any of the game ,good luck because it is virtually impossible. Takes forever to go to the bathroom, takes forever to get food/drinks, takes forever to leave. Don't even get me started on the bathrooms... Kind of an embarassing story, but at a game last year my stomach became conveniently angry during 1st intermission. I needed to use the bathroom badddd, and not to pee.... I got to the bathroom and the line was massive. Once I made it into the fricken door, I saw ONLY 2 STALLS! Even with all the pee troth space, people were using the 2 stalls to pee while I waited in line. Once I got to one of the stalls, there was piss EVERYWHERE! So yea, that was my horrible JLA story...
Parking sucks too.I hate parking in the garage because you have to walk through that stupid tunnel thing at a snails pace. And I also hate parking on the Cobo roof, because after the game everyone is packed in that little entry way waiting for the slow elevators, and it takes about 10 minutes of shuffling through them to get to the stairs.
From what I've come to understand, the city wants the land that JLA is on to expand Cobo anyway...

It's been years since I've been to the Joe. Some great memories for sure. One included a man holding one of those card board trays of beers and nachos, getting struck in the head by a tipped slap shot. Dropped like a sack of potatos, right in front of me. He ended up being ok but lost all his beer and nachos.
I'm a sucker for nastalgia but the Joe probably needs to go.

I get to maybe 3 or 4 games a year at the Joe. Rule #1 - NEVER park in the JLA lot (or Cobo roof for that matter). Rule #2 - Don't go in the main entrance attached to the JLA lot. Before they roped it all off for the remodel I would park around the old Cobo Arena garage or on Yzerman Drive. Now I park in the surface lot behind Cobo Joes bar - easy access and quick exit from any of these locations. you could also go over to greek town area and take one of the many party shuttles the bars send back and forth - that's always a party. No matter where you park, walk through or around Cobo to get to the river, then enter JLA from the river side - not only do you get a cool view of the river, the bridge and the birth-country of hockey, but you walk right into JLA -- virtually no line.
I love the current location. Walking the river front before and after the game is as much a part of the experience as the game itself. Won't be the same going to see the Wings in some new venue surrounded by parking lots.

I have been to the JLA, not recently but about 3 years ago. I do however go to every game that the Leafs play them in Toronto. The Air Canada Center makes a complete joke of the JLA. It's time they get a new arena, the bathroom lineups are definitely not a good thing, and like everyone else said after the game it is almost impossible to get out of the arena.
Posted 01 March 2013 - 11:37 PM
I can see the case for a new arena, but would still be pretty sad to see it go. It may not be all that old, but there is still a lot of history there. That may not mean much to those who grew up going to games at the old Olympia, but for someone who is still in his 20s, it's been there all my life.
For someone who watched them win their first Stanley Cup in 42 years, the "Russian Five", Scotty Bowman, Steve Yzerman, McCarty, Shannahan, even other characters such as "The Bruise Brothers", Dino Ciccarelli and Paul Coffey, the place has meaning.
I just hope they don't knock it down like they seem to do everything else. More of our memories reduced to rubble...
I agree. I too am sick of our throw-away/newer is always better mentality. Just look at the respect that places such as Olympia, Tiger Stadium, and even Yankee Stadium got for all of their years of service. Yeah, they were scrapped as if they were ratted out, old Toyota Corollas. In reality, and while sticking to car terms, those places were "barn finds", more along the lines of a 71' Hemi Cuda, or 67' Sting Ray 427. You don't scrap that sort of thing. You restore it, and I am sick of people saying that it can't be done.

I'm sorry but who worries about the bathrooms and the food? I thought you go because you want to watch the Red Wings LIVE!
I've been to arenas around the country that are nice and fancy but still take the Joe any day.
My routine? Park in the Fox Theater next to Hockey Town Cafe. Eat at Hockey Town Cafe or not. Take the shuttle bus over to the Joe, watch the game, don't eat food or didn't drink enough to have to use the bathroom, catch the shuttle bus back to Hockeytown Cafe, jump in my car and catch I75 home. No worries, no problem

Born and raised in Metro Detroit (and went to several JLA games), but moved away at age 22. Since then, the live NHL games I've gone to are at the XCel Energy Center in St. Paul, MN, which truly is a top-notch venue.
Around the league, JLA is getting an increasingly poor reputation. Fans and beat writers from other cities complain about the smell and the "oldness" of it. I went back to game at JLA in 2009 (which, unfortunately, was a 3-0 loss to Chicago), and it was still an overall good experience. Then again, I'm not really an "out-of-towner" - I grew up there and am accustomed to a lot of the structural degradation and general dysfunction. Also, I was just excited to see MY team in their building, which has about as much history as you could possibly cram into anything built in 1979.
But when people say "Oh, food/concessions/parking/surrounding aesthetics doesn't matter"....guys, it matters. It matters a heck of a lot, and it matters more when the prices for (most of) those tickets are as high as they are. Live hockey has the advantage over live football/basketball/etc of still being a much better experience in person than on HDTV (though the gap closed a little). If you're an out-of-towner, or even an outer-ring suburbanite, the stuff regular JLA visitors just "accept" (crappy parking arrangement, bullet holes in the Cobo/JLA tunnel, horrible public transit system) outside the building do keep people away. Then again, you can see in the Comerica/Ford Field part of downtown how some "corridor development" and a couple of nice venues can create a little bit of buzz.
I don't know if "need" is ever going to be the right word, but I think the Joe is becoming more and more of a problem. When I think about the experience of parking my car a few blocks away in a $10 or $15 lot and walking into XCel Center, it isn't even fathomable what's involved to go to a game at JLA. And remember, the people on this board are largely the people "in the know" - casual fans don't know all the tricks or what to avoid, so they probably end up facing a wall stuck on the Cobo roof for an hour at 11pm on a school night, like I used to do with my dad in the 90's. Haha.

They certinaly need a new arena there is not doubt about it. I don't even want to make the trip anymore because it's not even enjoyable going to the Joe. I can't even drink a few beers because if I have to piss once or twice I missed the entire game. Let alone if me or my gf wants a god dang snack. Getting in and out is a pain in the ass, actually every aspect is a pain in the ass. If I pay big money to see a game I want to enjoy the whole experiance. If I can't enjoy it then guess what, the view is just as good if not better on my 60inch screen. I'll save my money for Tigers and Lions games.
When I think of going to a Tigers game I think about how much fun the whole day is going to be. Going there, being there, everything about it. Wings games on the other hand, I completely dread everything about it and hold on to the only postive fact that I do get to see the Wings play in person. Why should I have to feel that way for a 100$ ticket plus all my traveling expenses and hotel? It cost me 400$ to see a game coming from the U.P.
I respect you guys that are not trying to be complainers and all, but let's face it. You spend top doller to go there and 18,000 people have to be in that building. It's gotta go boys.
I mean for real. Taking a piss at a Tigers game is almost an ejoyable experiance. It's a chance to get out of your seat for a minute and enjoy the whole experiance. Check out a couple chicks on the walk, look at some cool stuff. I mean you can walk around and bulls*** with your friends that are with you. How much more beer and concession stuff would the Wings beable to sell if their fans weren't scared to leave their seat or scared to drink beer in fear of having to pisss and miss a large portion of the game?

I'm a sucker for history, so I wish they'd keep it. There's plenty of sporting venues around the world that have been around since the beginning of the last century.
The JLA isn't even close to the age those buildings are.
Seriously, i wish they'd have stayed at Olympia. but I'm quirky like that.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet in this thread is the effect that having older facilities has on recruiting free agents. If you don't think that having up-to-date facilities for the team is a big deal, you're kidding yourself. As much as a new arena would be a boost to the fan experience, it will be even more important for the fiscal & recruiting health of the organization going forward.
Posted 02 March 2013 - 04:03 PM
Im in Florida now and love my yearly visits for sports and can admit although I cried when they tore down Tiger stadium, i was blown away by the Comerica experience.
The boys and the fans that have made it Hockey town all deserve a new state of the art venue and we can start building new memories AND keeping some old traditions!

Penn State needs to bring back 'Sweet Caroline'
July 17, 2013 - Cory Giger
In a failed and misguided attempt at being politically correct, Penn State last year made a decision to stop playing "Sweet Caroline" during football games at Beaver Stadium.
Penn State officials never came flat out and said what the reasoning was for removing the wildly popular sing-along song from the stadium playlist. The only explanation was that they were trying different things with new people in charge of stadium entertainment, following the departure of former marketing guru Guido D'Elia.
But come on. We all know why they stopped playing "Sweet Caroline."
"Touching hands
"Reaching out
"Touching me
"Touching you."
Penn State was afraid having the song played would be insensitive or make it the butt of jokes or whatever else in the wake of the Sandusky scandal.
Watching Neil Diamond sing his classic song during Tuesday's MLB All-Star Game reinforced the notion that not playing "Sweet Caroline" during PSU games is just downright silly.
The song is a wonderful ballpark or stadium anthem that makes tens of thousands of fans feel better for a few seconds by singing along shouting out the lyrics.
Hopefully the people in charge of gameday entertainment at PSU realize there's nothing incendiary or insensitive about playing the song for 100,000 fans at Beaver Stadium.

Residents of the 814 area code got a reprieve with the Public Utility Commission's decision to throw out a plan to provide more telephone numbers for the region.
But how long that reprieve lasts remains to be seen.
In 2009, the PUC began examining ways to address an expected shortage of telephone numbers in the 814 area code. The growth of cellphones and facsimile machines was gobbling up the supply of available numbers.
The two main options were to split the current 814 area, forcing some customers to use a new area code, or to do an overlay with two area codes serving the same space. That would mean customers would have to dial the area code for all calls, even to their next-door neighbor.
There are obvious inconveniences to both strategies.
About 18 months ago, the PUC voted to split the 814 area and forced those in the northwestern portion to use a new three-digit code. Not surprisingly, those customers didn't like the idea and quickly appealed.
All of that has gone away with the latest PUC action.
New information says the 814 area code now has enough available numbers to meet demand until mid-2018. That means we won't have to deal with this issue for at least a few more years.
However, barring some change, a lack of numbers in the 814 area code seems destined to rise again as a problem.
We only hope that once again we will be the lucky ones to keep the 814 area code.

In some NHL circles, a more drastic solution is envisioned. The Coyotes could simply be folded, its 23 players sent to other NHL teams through a dispersal draft and the league would operate with 29 teams next season.
This would allow the NHL to collect expansion fees of $200-million or more each from Seattle and Quebec City, the top candidates for NHL teams, rather than a single relocation fee of $60-million or so for the Coyotes. That is a gain of at least $200-million if a total loss of $200-million is assumed on the NHL's investment in the Coyotes.
(Suddenly, Columbus Blue Jackets fans have visions of Mike Smith or Oliver Ekman-Larsson dancing through their heads.)
Shoalts is right with Quebec City. I don't believe the NHL wants to relocate to Quebec. I believe they want to expand there, and collect the type of expansion fees they did not when they have to hastily move the Atlanta Thrashers to Winnipeg.
Here's the link to the whole story itself.

Acclaimed educational historian Dr. Diane Ravitch spoke to a full house at Lesley University.
Dr. Diane Ravitch needed little introduction on May 18 – many in the University Hall Amphitheater clutched well-thumbed titles from the dozens of books she's written and edited.
True to the style of her written work, the acclaimed educational historian brought bold statements supported with facts, years of perspective and a deep-seated concern for the state of education in America's classrooms.
"These are perilous times for educators," Ravitch said. "Everywhere I go, I see how beaten down teachers feel. They are enemy number one – states are cutting their rights to bargain, cutting pensions, eroding seniority; entire teaching staffs have been fired. Their beliefs about education are not wrong, but the people beating up on them are wrong."
During her lecture, she was provocative in her criticism of proponents of charter schools, over-reliance on standardized testing, and what she called "propaganda for privatization" through films like Waiting for Superman.
"They say that American public education is terrible, test scores are horrible, we're not competitive with other countries, and that poor children are trapped in drop out factories," she said. "The narrative is wrong. If we're worried the top scoring nation will do us in, we must fear Finland."
Dr. Ravitch is one of the country's most highly regarded educational historians. In addition to her teaching and research, Dr. Ravitch served as Assistant Secretary of Education in the administration of President George H.W. Bush and was appointed by the Clinton administration to oversee the National Assessment of Educational Progress, the federal testing program. She is the author and editor of numerous books and articles on education in the US, and has lectured on democracy and civic education throughout the world.
Ravitch joined Lesley for two events, beginning with a lecture to the faculty and members of the community. Afterwards, Ravitch and Lesley University President Joseph Moore engaged in discussion as the featured event in the first meeting of the Lesley University Leadership Council, a group of influential alumni and public-spirited leaders in the Greater Boston area and beyond that assist the university in defining its strategic direction and fulfilling its mission. The council is co-chaired by Michael Dukakis, former Governor of Massachusetts and the 1988 Democratic Nominee for President, and his wife Kitty, an engaged Lesley alumna.

With my thin, feathery, short hair, I have wasted a lot of money on hair products. I have used this Gel for like 4 days now and I am not changing it. The name says it all you kinda feel your scalp pulsing when you apply, but if you are looking for something extremely strong for styling your spikes this is the one. It is in the matter of fact strong enough to stay stiff during the workout and it doesn't flake like the other gels even after a heavy bench press session
I've taken a couple of pre-workouts, but mostly just settle for a couple of shots of espresso. However, I bought the pulse gels as it worked out cheaper. If taken 3mins prior you'll start to feel a wave of adrenalin-like sensations come over you as well as a tingling sensation. My workouts have notably improved and I'm more focused. Plenty have said its a placebo, which if true makes no odds to me as I'm getting a better workout! I'd recommend them to anyway to try out. As a side note, I don't think they are as effective on a heavy stomach. That's only anecdotal though. Goes Well With:Doesn't need to be mixed, just take it straight up.
I think maybe my taste buds are different to most of the other reviewers because to me this stuff tastes like how I imagine battery acid must taste. Absolutely VILE. Super convenient, similar effect to a couple of strong coffees but seemed to wear off halfway through my workout. Probably won't bother to buy again. Goes Well With:Holding your nose then eating something afterwards to get rid of the taste.
Immediate effect for pre workout and I feel so energetic and power after taking these gels. The best I ever had and made me feel unstoppable.
Love this stuff.. use it before my workout and it makes me feel so much more awake and ready after a long day of lectures! Taste brill, I prefer it to my Cellucor C4 pre workout as that is a powder which you mix with water- doesn't taste too nice but this gel stuff is amazing for on the go !!! Deffo recommend
Love this product! Find it works slightly better if I haven't eaten a few hours before it! Makes my face tingle and has let me be able to push myself and beat some of my personal bests. Definitely going to keep buying this!
Very convenient pre-gym nutrition that does exactly what is needed.
I got the tropical storm flavour....and jeez its far too sweet, so sweet it's nearly unbearable, so best you get it down quick. I usually use this pre workout gel when I am feeling tired/lazy before a workout and it really does the trick! The first time I took it I was absolutely BUZZING, probably because I'm not a big individual. But to conclude definitely a solid pre workout, that really keeps you motivated throughout your workout both cardio and weights.
It's a little sour but it seems to do the trickGoes Well With:Doesn't go well with anything
Excellent product, must have for all triathletes.
It really gave me much energy. My workout were great with that gel, even when I'm sleepy and tired.I will take it again.
Used a few different pres and this is by far the best. Quick and easy to use. take 10-15minutes before working out, you feel energised and ready to go. You know it's work when your face starts to tingle
Its pretty good, nice taste and effective.
Perfect pre-workout energy booster. much better than energy drinks
I've been dabbling with preworkout for many years now. After having taken it for a long period of time, my body got hard to it and did not do anything for me at all. I've just had a 6 month break and this was my first choice back as I was purchasing some ZMA and pudding from myprotein (which are superb). These shots don't do too much to be Hinest. I'm a 95kg 24 year old and I was expecting more. I've had other shots in the past and they have blown my head off, maybe because they have 2 servings in a shot? They need to be stronger! Cheaper alternative would be the powder, but again, not effective unless you have silly amount of scoops. Goes Well With:BCAA's and this for a fasted morning workout.
I generally hit the cycling machine 3-4 times a week for 40 mins at a time, and on my resistance setting aim for 90-100 rpm, with this stuff I was on 95-105 rpm and was caning it right till the end, so noticeably increased the strength of the workout. Most importantly time flew, at one point I assumed I was 20 minutes into the workout but in fact 30 minutes had passed. I felt like a mix between a doped up athlete and Dr Who. Overall this squidgey gel-bag works - just makes working out easier and more intense. Goes Well With:My stomach
Excellent product for quick use and receive a fast pulse of energy, very happy.
Pulse gel is a good booster to the day
I've tried a number of Pre-workout Products, it definitely gives you that boost/ buss you need before an intense workout session! Also i've found even if you use later on in the day (6-7pm) i still find it easy to get to sleep that night, however with other similar products ive struggled. The taste reminds me of a Raspberry Frube Yogurt. All round great product and will continue to buy.
I Work from 6am - 4pm. Like to workout on the way home but struggle with energy levels, so I take one in the car half hour before going to the gym. Improves my energy levels and can make it through work out plan a lot better when I use them. Goes Well With:Don't need to mix with anything. Best to wash down with water though.
Very good product! I don't usually have caffeine, therefore I'm very sensitive to this kind of product. I find that 1/3 of a sachet is plenty to fuel me for a good work-out, meaning that the product lasts 3 times as long! The flavour isn't best, although by no means is it really bad - Just a little strong and sour. Would recommend. Goes Well With:Don't need to mix, take straight from sachet.
I wanted to try Pulse gels instead of my usual pre workout gym so I didn't have to be full of water before a workout. They're dead easy to ingest and don't make you feel too bloated before working out. They're pretty tasty and did the job. I could feel the beta alanine and caffeine working its magic. Goes Well With:your mouth
Used recently, sudden change in energy available for a workout. Can get much more done in a shorter amount of time. Although, don't have a lot of caffeine regularly, so might not be as effective for caffeine takers.
I found Pulse Gel really effective, it gave me a real boost when it came to my workout. Was able to exercise for significantly longer before feeling fatigue. I got a slight tingling sensation in my fingers and lips immediately after consuming but this wore off after a few minutes. I would highly recommend Pulse Gel, although dont make my mistake of using before a week night workout. Could not sleep for ages!! Will save for mornings and weekends.
Bought these gels as something to take before the gym but after receiving the item, double checked the caffeine content and decided against it on a weeknight. Tried one, was fairly decent tasting for a gel, and didn't make me jittery as other products. I don't take caffeine products very often (I don't drink coffee) so wasn't sure what to expect. As such, I didn't get a "kick" that I might have been expecting. These may help you, but I was a little underwhelmed. I will try again however.
Hi, I've been taken this product for around 2 months now and from day 1 it has not let me down it gives you the lift you need to push you through your workout, I'm a PT and I've always passed my clients on to myprotein when needing a supplement and this energy gel has worked for them too! Big thank you!! :) Tony
These Gels are very very effective. They give you a much needed buzz before getting stuck Into your session. These means you can lift heavier for longer and run faster for longer also! The berry flavour is verg strong and quite sweet, although I al really seeing benefits from taking this! I don't lind the sweet berry taste as it is worth bearing just to see the results! These are perfects paired with the ener-gel from MyProtein. You'll also find that these are far cheaper than other competitors gels and in my opinion these are far superior. This just adds that extra boost to your session that means you can go at full pelt for longer.Goes Well With:Creatine tablets.
tasted nice and is convenient in the sachets but are expensive and didn't really see much as a result.. needed a blast of energy but nothing!
I've used a lot of preworkouts over the years and in all honesty this is the best pre workout product I have used to date. Other products have previously been rejected by my body making me feel queezy and quite ill and most importantly not left me with a clean energy for my training session. I've bought both the tropical and berry flavours and both taste very nice and are not as sour as you commonly find with the powdered version, this puts a lot of people off if you don't like that kind of thing so it's a very taste accepting to start. Secondly the 'tingles' you often get with these pre workouts came on pretty quick but also faded by the time I made it to the gym 15/20 min away which when they faded left me with a nice clean energy boost for my session with no queezyness I had in other products. Hope that review encorages people to purchase this product. Reliable and well priced. Alex
It's a exelent product and helps me so much with my training at work at total fitness
Well what can I say deffo gives a kick, I did feel like I had more energy and it was very effective. Taste is really sharp and sour which I love so perfect for me. One thing I will say is don't have them on a empty stomach made me feel quite queasy. But defo worth a buy, perfect to keep in the gym bag and easy to consume.
Tried a sample of this earlier in the week and apart from the taste not being to bad I didn't really get much off this product. I didn't feel anymore energised than normal or feel that the session was anymore intense than usual. I did feel I like I got more of a pump than normal but nothing to really shout about. Overall a bit disappointed.
This product really does do "what it says on the box!" Taken half am hour before high intensity exercise it gives you a boost of energy and allows you to reach cardio goals. When on a low carb diet these are ideal because they fuel you with the much needed energy you are not acquiring from carbs. A product that I will continue to use. Goes Well With:Thermopure
What can I say, this certainly gives you the motivation to push hard, the initial taste is very strong and sweet but not too unpleasant, I use this when I'm going for a new PBGoes Well With:Water
These gels were brilliant before my mud race earlier this year. Surprisingly sour but a good kick start to a long workout. Would suggest having one half way through a long run for a bit of an energy boost.
Great product. I cycle allot. It gives me that extra boost when i need it. I usually take it before i go cycling so that i have enough energy to overcome any obstacle. I highly recommend it.
Amazing pre workout!, took at 5.45 still feeling the energy 10 hours later, did have a slight reaction with my body feeling inchy like a hot flush for 30 mins but soon disappeared
Excellent product, taste wasn't the best, the flavour doesn't quite hide the taste of the ingredients but it only takes 20seconds to squeeze the gel out, so not an issue really.
My trainer has got me eating a low carb diet to try and shift body fat and as a result I've struggled a bit with energy levels during my workouts so gave these Pulse:Gel a go and they've definitely given me more of the 'kick' I needed. I bought both flavours (both pretty good) - they both have a bit of a 'sour' flavour to them but it's not unpleasant.
This product works quite well. Brings on a great amount of focus during the workout and certainly provides you with a lasting energy. However I think its a bit on the pricy side seeing as though you only get 12 sachets in one packet. the taste is awful but it can be mixed into a small amount of water to make it less concentrated. I would recommend Pulse v4 before this product though. Goes Well With:water
Tried my first sachet earlier today. I am still wired! The first thing I noticed was the taste, not very pleasant but bearable. Took 15 minutes prior to my workout as it said, at first I didn't notice anything but then only 5 minutes in I was pumped! My muscles were bursting out and my arms and chest was bright red, I had to open the window so I could continue! I could do much more reps so bumped the weight up! I was more focused and still have the energy to do a lot more. Will definitely use this on a regular basis. Goes Well With:Haven't tried mixing with anything, just water to wash away the taste afterwards.
Pulse:Gel gave me a massive boost during my workout, the taste was slightly bitter but nothing drastic. I will definitely be buying these again on my next order.
I tried the berry flavour Pulse:Gel before a morning. It tasted a bit like sour sweets but the overall boost to my workout was immense. I am really impressed.
I have tried most pre-workout supplements on the market and this easily beats them all. 1) Ease of use - no bloat from mixing in a pint of water, just down the gel 15 mins before you train. Easy. 2) Performance - It boosts your output and you get a fuller pump that takes you until you decide you are finished training. Just be aware of possible overtraining. 3) No discomfort - since there is no creatine, you get none of the gastrointestinal difficulties commonly associated with its use. 4) The price - very affordable.
Great product once you get used to it. Not for the faint hearted or those that have any intolerance to caffeine. Can end up feeling like you have finished a 10K run by the end of your workout, without doing any cardio!
