Petroleum & Other Liquids
Energy in Brief articles
How dependent are we on foreign oil?
The United States relied on net imports (imports minus exports) for about 40% of the petroleum (crude oil and petroleum products) that we consumed in 2012. Just over half of these imports came from the Western Hemisphere. Our dependence on foreign petroleum has declined since peaking in 2005.
Who are the major players supplying the world oil market?
The world oil market is complicated. Companies are often thought of as the primary actors in this market, but governments play a large role as well.

Petroleum Explained
Why are gasoline prices higher in some regions than in others?
Although price levels vary over time, average retail gasoline prices are often highest in certain States or regions. Besides taxes, there are other factors that contribute to regional and even local differences in gasoline prices.
Biofuels: Ethanol and Biodiesel Explained
What are biofuels?
"Biofuels" are transportation fuels like ethanol and biodiesel that are made from biomass materials. These fuels are usually blended with the petroleum fuels — gasoline and diesel fuel, but they can also be used on their own. Using ethanol or biodiesel means we don't burn quite as much fossil fuel. Ethanol and biodiesel are usually more expensive than the fossil fuels that they replace, but they are also cleaner-burning fuels, producing fewer air pollutants.

Dishonored plays out like a stealth version of Witcher. You got magic and swordplay. There are many ways to deal with your enemies; straight kill, choke or distract. There is a freedom of paths to your goals and even missions have hidden non-leathal means of completion.
Graphics are great. Sound/Music 8/10 Grab the GOTY and get all the content at a cheaper price.
Best game in a long timeCappinCanuck | Nov. 12, 2013 | See all CappinCanuck's reviews »
I don't like stealth games. I love this game anyway. It's got a unique and deep unique story. You play a wealthy aristocrat turned rogue in a meshing of a steampunk and 19th century industrial revolution setting. Each situation has different routes to take and options that affect the outcome of your game. The writing, voices, and story are amazing. You'll be sucked in without question. The graphics are great and the art style on the spot. This is a must-play game.
An excellent and intriguing stealth gamePatofilio | Oct. 25, 2013 | See all Patofilio's reviews »
Dishonored is a very well done game, basically you act out as an assassin (or not) in a quest to clean your name. Without getting too much into the story all you need to know is that it's a pretty good story, the characters you meet are interesting and the whole world around you is brimming with history and lore waiting to be discovered by those who like exploring.
One of the key features of this game is the ability to play it in two ways, the stealth way or the aggressive way, this choice not only affects the way you control your character but also changes the environment depending on what you had done in previous missions. The stealth mechanic is very well done and combat is not bad either. Think something like Bioshock.
Overall this game is must play for stealth fans and rig enthusiasts. While rather short Dishonored is a well worthy experience that definitely deserves a second play trough.
Very Good Stealth/Action GameBulletter | Oct. 13, 2013 | See all Bulletter's reviews »
This is one of those types of games that allows you to play the way you want to play. You can treat it like a stealth game and got all sneaky or you can whip out your trusty blade and pistol and do damage. I chose stealth for the added difficulty and found it to be very fun. It has a solid story with a couple of characters you may come to care about so that doesn't hurt either. Overall it's a solid game with a very good sense of style and art direction. I hope they make a sequel to this.
Truly worth to be called GOTYlok0812 | Oct. 11, 2013 | See all lok0812's reviews »
This GOTY edition for Dishonored is an all in one package for the game. The original game have you play as a body guard that was framed for murder and now you must seek revenge and clear your name. In each mission of Dishonored you have a choice of how you want to play, rather a stealth or straight up killing approach as well as if you want to slaughter anything you see or sneak pass them. Your actions will have consequences to the stages later on in the game. Gameplay and mechanic of this game is truly superb and it totally feels like an assassin with the superpower that were givens.
In this package it also comes with all the DLCs that the game has released. The Void Walker Arsenal is just an optional gears DLC for preorder from different vendors in one package. Dunwal City Trial is a challenge DLC with 10 setting challenging the player to complete a certain task. These two DLCs are very mediocre and serve little. The only story content DLCs are the remaining two. Knife of Dunwall have you play as the main antagonist of the game and see his side of the story after the prologue of the game and ends with Brigmore Witches to conclude his story and his ending depends on your actions as well. Overall, a truly immersive title that is well deserved to be called GOTY.

Since I have created the topic about Danny Garcia, I think it's only fair to create one about Daniel Jacobs who came back after his long battle with cancer, which in itself is a lifetime accomplishment.
I was listening to some of his after-fight interviews and man, what a cool dude. I know his opponent wasn't top-notch, but at least he chose someone with a winning record for his comeback. I noticed he got hit couple of times in that fight, but otherwise I really liked his D which seems to be a mixture of various styles - shoulder roll etc. No question about the speed and power. He got care-less against Pirog, who is a freak anyway, protected, but still a freak.
What do you think is next for him ? Possible match-ups ? I don't want to see him rush things, but man...what a champ he would make.

Ophthalmic Technology is a critical specialty in the eye health care team. An Ophthalmic Technologist collects data and performs special testing to aid the Ophthalmologist in diagnosis and treatment of the patient. A graduate of the program will be expected to have extensive knowledge of the ocular system, to be proficient in the operation of visual instrumentation, and to develop effective communication skills in working with patients. Well-paying career opportunities, including traditional ophthalmologic settings, teaching, research, business, and sales are available in the dynamic, yet under-supplied profession.

College Football
College Football Spotlight: It May Be Hard To Admit, But The BCS Got It Right
Are the two best teams in the country right now scheduled to collide in Pasadena, California? It would be difficult to prove otherwise.
Heisman Watch: Fresno State's Derek Carr Gets One Last Chance
Few quarterbacks in college football have put up the kind of passing numbers Fresno State's Derek Carr has this season. Carr has passed for a nation-leading 4,462 yards and 45 touchdowns while being picked off just five times all year.
College Football Spotlight: Ohio State A Win Away From BCS Title Shot, Whether SEC Likes It Or Not
If Ohio State gets by the defensive juggernaut of Michigan State in Indianapolis, the Buckeyes absolutely deserve to head to the final BCS Championship Game of the BCS era regardless of what happens at the SEC Championship in Atlanta.
Heisman Watch: Boston College's Andre Williams Rushes In To The Mix
With the competition wide open for the Heisman Trophy, Boston College running back Andre Williams has become a bit of a rising contender.
College Football Spotlight: Iron Bowl Stakes Rarely This High For 'Bama, Auburn
It is fitting that the Iron Bowl finally gets to play this kind of role in the SEC, and it is a shock it has not happened like this before. Since the addition of a conference championship game in the SEC in 1992, Alabama and Auburn have never been quite this good in the same season.
Heisman Watch: Jordan Lynch Looking To Push Northern Illinois Back To BCS Stage
If Kellen Moore and Colt Brennan could do it, then why not Northern Illinois Jordan Lynch? Lynch received three first-place votes for the Heisman Trophy in 2012, so he is certainly on the radar for some voters out there.
College Football Spotlight: Biggest Question Now Is Michigan State Or Oklahoma State?
The easy question is to ask if Ohio State is better than Baylor, but the real question should ask if Michigan State is better than Oklahoma State. That is the most important question over the next few weeks, but it will not matter if Alabama and Florida State run the table to collide in Pasadena.
Sports Verdict: Which Fans Throw A Better Tailgate? College Football Vs. Pro Football
Tailgate Fan correspondents Nick Stevens and Jerry Miller roam the entire countryside searching for the wildest and most epic tailgates in all of football.
Heisman Watch: Baylor's Bryce Petty Keeps Bears In BCS Hunt
Baylor's Bryce Petty is probably on the outside looking in on the Heisman Trophy, but a trip to New York for the ceremony is well within reach.
College Football Spotlight: Ohio State Is Going To Pasadena, But For Which Game?
It feels weird to suggest that an undefeated Ohio State team could have absolutely no shot to play in the national championship game, but that is the reality staring down at the Buckeyes right now following the release of the latest BCS standings Sunday night.

The NBA Players Association has already announced its intentions to file for a disclaimer of interest and challenge the NBA lockout in court, but that may not be the only lawsuit the group files. Ken Berger of CBS Sports reports that those involved in the process are still pushing for the players to formally decertify as a union.
The two measures are similar, but there are some key differences that were spelled out here. According to Berger, those involved in the decertification process believe it will send a stronger statement that the move is not simply a negotiating tactic.
The agents believe that a statement from far more than the 30 percent of players required to initiate a vote ousting the union leadership will help the union's argument in federal court that the disclaimer of interest was a last resort and not a negotiating tactic or a "sham."
In addition, Berger reports that the players may file separate lawsuits for veterans under contract and for rookies and free agents. This is a similar path to what the NFL Players Association took when it filed for decertification.
Finally, Berger reports that if the players are to win a summary judgment, they could achieve over $2.4 billion in damages. That seems unlikely, but it still has to scare the owners a bit.

So I'm sure you guys all know this fight will be going down on Jan 26th. I'm also sure you guys know this has been in the works for some time now. I usually don't start threads but I was very curious and intrigue by this fight. Ward is a charismatic guy but he doesn't really promote himself or call people out much. It seemed however that he talked about tis fight more than most fights he's been in (maybe it's just me). I'm just curious to know what you guys think about Ward's motive behind seemingly promoting this fight. I also oviously would like to know if you guys think Pavlik has more than a puncher's chance at winning. Is he a threat or is this a classic case of adding a name to a boxer's resume' while his popularity is at a high? Personally, even if it is, I think Ward has earned that given his resume' the last 2 or so years. Just wanted to gauge where my fellow sweet science enthusiast were on this matter.

i would rather see pavlik/froch with the winner facing ward.
I think Froch could beat Kelly, plus he has a date with Bute. But I think a Pavlic vs kessler fight would be very good, but Kelly stands no chance if he decides to fight like a brawler with Garcia at his corner and he can't box ward either... His best chance is to land something very significant.
On another note betcha Kelly Pavlic, ward, and Martinez are all pissed they didn't take that Bute fight when they had the chance tho lol

Nice summary option next to photos
Family News Christmas Photo Cards This was a really nice card option. I did find it a little cumbersome to revise the language next to each photo as it does not work like a Word processing program as one would expect. I copied and pasted revisions from Word.
Nice but took a while to recieve
Celebrate the Season Magnetic Christmas Cards Really liked the finished product. Think the concept & website is great too. I was dissatisfied with how long it took to recieve them in order to mail out to family & friends. If production time took half of what it did (it took a full 7 days) & week+ time for shipping I would have been able to get them out before Christmas. If you want to make them out for Christmas give yourself 3+ weeks time.

Diner Reviews
The modern was fancy and romantic
but not pretentious. The service was excellent and the food was creative and surprising and an excellent experience. Would definitely recommend for a special night out."
Dined on 8/15/2014
Dishes were imaginative and very
delicious. Could not be finer dining and on a level above many other three star restaurants."
Dined on 8/15/2014
Excellent service, interesting
menu, great wine list. Overall great experience!"
Dined on 8/14/2014
We've spent more but not had a
better, more enjoyable and surprising dinner. Our cousins from the other coast wanted a fancy place. Everything was wonderful. With five of us there we had between us almost every dish on the menu. Each dish surprised us in some way. Will return. As a side note, with my severe allergy to the genus prunus (Cherries, plums, apricots AND almonds), I've started to just not have dessert in restaurants and buy baked goods from good bakeries. The head waiter (maitre d'?) actually checked and I was able to eat one."
Dined on 8/13/2014
My wife, who is a bit of a picky,
hamburger-only type, described it as the best meal she's ever had, and there isn't a burger on the money. Absolutely wonderful food, service, wine list, and ambience. A definite must try."
Dined on 8/9/2014
This was our 3rd time to The
Modern. It is an unbelievable experience! We choose the Tasting Menu....every item that was served to us was beautiful and tasted SO good! Our wait staff, everyone of them, had great personalities. We will go here again and again"
Dined on 8/9/2014
The Modern dining room has
rightfully earned its Michelin star. The food is innovative and tasty. The service is emblematic of Danny Meyers philosophy of caring for the diners. Pricey but worth the expense."
Dined on 8/8/2014
The Modern Dining Room leaves no
room for improvement. The food is of course delicious. It is also inventive and creative without being too twee or contrived. Every dish is a delight. The staff is a joy. They are friendly but not intrusive; polite but not strangely formal as one often finds these days. The service is quick, quiet, and deft. Every detail pleases--even the flatware. So elegant while simple. The view is always beautiful--day and night, in good weather and bad. And the prices, while admittedly considerable, are quite reasonable compared to other restaurants in this category. NYC has many excellent restaurants. This one is currently my absolute favorite for the quality of the food and the overall experience!"
Dined on 8/8/2014
The Modern has been awarded one
star by Guide Michelin. After this exemplary dinning experience I would be surprised if the Modern would be awarded a second star in the next evaluation. The service was attentive, perfect and we felt as if we where long standing customers receiving a special treatment. The food and wine was one of the best dinning experiences with a four course meal: two delicious sarters and a main courses to die for. This was topped off with some complemetary desserts and wine in the sculpture garden."
Dined on 8/7/2014
The Mfreodern never disappoints.
The setting is spectacular with the huge glass windows overlooking MoMa garden. The service is excellent, attentive without being overbearing. And most importantly, the food is incredible from beginning to end. The amuse-bouches, the right-out-of-the-oven bread, delicious lobster salad appetizer, perfectly cooked salmon and the unbeatable dacquoise for dessert."
Dined on 8/7/2014
We enjoy coming here and being
"spoiled". The flavors of the food and its presentation always meets our expectations. The slow cooked pork and Branzino were delightful. Scallops were also done excellently. My wife and I choose a Riesling and Sav Blanc to accompany our summer date night. Much more consistent than its peers."
Dined on 8/6/2014
We chose the 4-course prix fixe
menu, and each course exceeded our expectations, each was perfectly prepared and presented. Imagine a meal where every course tops its predecessor, and you have an idea of how superlative this meal was. It was one of the most memorable dining experiences I've ever enjoyed."
Dined on 8/5/2014
The lunch we had at The Modern was
as good a meal as we have had ANYWHERE in the world. A standard for comparison in NYC is Daniel - we couldn't choose between them. Heaven food-wise would be lunch at The Modern and dinner at Daniel, but we couldn't eat that much! Service is impeccable, and the food is both interesting and perfectly prepared. The Modern obviously isn't a place regular folks go regularly, but for a special occasion, and/or for a world-class meal, it's as good a choice as you can find anywhere."
Dined on 8/4/2014
We had the 3 courses and all of
our choices without exception were excellent, nice touches with the amuse bouches, mini sorbet and boxed chocs to take home too, highly recommended"
Dined on 8/1/2014
The menu offers a very exciting
selection of sophisticated dishes, but portions are just too small. I had the lamb, which was very good, amazingly well prepared and with a red wine-based sauce for amazing final touch - but it was composed of two 1-inch cubes with some other things around. It all ended in 2 minutes, for an entrée. Also had the hamachi carpaccio as starter: four or five "millimetric" slices, very good, but almost looked like a "free sample" to me. The wine absurdly highly priced: I know the wholesale prices of high-end wines, but here they play hard ball. Sorry, but prix fixe + small samples + high priced standard wine = never again. Note: I have a culinary degree from Cordon Bleu in Paris."
Dined on 8/1/2014
Took my wife here for her
birthday, with friends and I didn't disappoint. The food was exceptional and the service was first class, little details that they payed attention too. One of the best places I've ever eaten!!"
Dined on 8/1/2014
I dine out very often in NYC.
From the moment you walk in this is a relaxing, balanced and beautiful room. The staff is extremely well trained and thoughtful. Might have been the first time in 25 years that the Manager came out and apologized because our table was not ready at time of our reservation. It was 10 minutes late, which in NYC speak is on time. Food was fantastic, overall a wonderful experience."
Dined on 8/1/2014
Ridiculously good. Service
impeccable. food outstanding, inventive, meticulously prepared. the wine list is modest but covers the spectrum well, prices reasonable for NYC. All staff were friendly, well trained, knowledgable and helpful, offered suggestions but we're not forceful. can't wait to go back for a truffle menu in the fall"
Dined on 7/31/2014
The food and the service is
outstanding. Great place to return to regularly!"
Dined on 7/31/2014
Met at door by an obsequious idiot
who showed us to the wrong table. couldn't find reservation. When that was corrected everything was fine. Excellent though overpriced wines. Wonderful innovative selection of entrees, starters, soups and salads. Excellent chef. Our wait staff was attentive and solicitous but not intrusive. We had heard differently from others so this was a pleasant surprise. Overall a place I would return to."
Dined on 7/29/2014
The Modern never fails to please.
The food, the ambience, the professional wait staff, are all first class. This restaurant is a real tribute to Danny Meyer's abilities as a great restauranteur!"
Dined on 7/28/2014
The food and hospitality at The
Modern is over-the-top fantastic. We ordered a 4 course price fixe thinking we may be hungry afterwards based on some other reviews commenting on small portions. The portions were more than fair and we couldn't finish the last dishes. But, size doesn't matter - the presentation, quality and taste of the dishes were amazing and exceeded expectations. The setting is wonderful. We overheard a couple saying there was no artwork on the walls - but the art was on the plate and in the sculpture garden outside the dining room. Save room for the complimentary chocolate cart. My wife and I thank all of the staff at The Modern for such a wonderful evening, including the invitation to the courtyard for a nightcap."
Dined on 7/26/2014
We chose to have dinner on our
wedding day and it was the best choice of restaurants we have ever made - the service was top notch. All the waiters are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The food was amazing and tastefully presented. They have a great selection of wine too and the price is not too outrageous. The Dining Room has a romantic view overlooking the sculpture garden of MoMA. Anyone who loves art would love the ambience there which you cannot find elsewhere. At the end of the dinner, we told the waitress we just got married earlier that day, and she offered us a grand cru dessert wine to celebrate the occasion on the terrace. It was overall a fantastic dining experience. We would definitely go back again for special occasions!"
Dined on 7/26/2014
Amazing place! The food was
incredible, the ambience and the service incredible too! One dish you're going to love if you are a meat eatter is the roasted beef and bone marrow, believe me is out of this world."
Dined on 7/25/2014
Our prix fixe lunch was a unique
and delectable dining experience. Each course was prepared to perfection, and the service could not have been better."
Dined on 7/24/2014
We celebrated the first night of
our NYC vacation by going to The Modern. It is a lovely dining room and we enjoyed watching a rain storm and lightening show through the wall of windows. The food was very good, pricey - but we expected that. My complaint was the noise level....if you get a table close to the bar area it is hard to hear own conversation. I would have enjoyed our experience much more if we had been seated somewhere else in the room."
Dined on 7/23/2014
An expense account is useful here,
but the food and service are worthwhile. I took a business colleague here and she was very impressed with the food; the waiter was also very solicitous. Had the foie gras with blueberries (better of the two foie gras on the menu), pistachio-stuffed chicken (a bit dry). Caramel parfait dessert was very inventive and delicious. At the end, when the heavens suddenly opened up, the restaurant even gave us umbrellas!!"
Dined on 7/23/2014
I was taken here for my 26th
birthday and had possibly the most amazing dinner. Every dish was perfect in taste and presentation. The waiters were able to answer any questions about food/wine in great detail. And the manager even made sure t make the experience special by having the chef bring out a special dessert for me."
Dined on 7/19/2014
We dined here for our anniversary.
Looked this place over for many years, finally decided to try it because we needed a last minute booking when our original choice fell through. Had a drink in the bar area, which is very casual and comfortable. Drinks were good, if not a bit overly complicated. They seated us about 7 minutes late, although there were open tables. Complained and we were comp'd with champagne. Nice touch. We chose the tasting menu with paired wines. The whole experience was divine from start to finish. I enjoyed a number of ingredients and wines I typically do not like, that is how great the food preparation and wine pairings were. This is in my top list of NYC restaurants."
Dined on 7/19/2014
The beef medallions are
excellent.in fact it's one of the best I've eaten including a steak house."
Dined on 7/18/2014
We have visited here before and
again we were very happy with our dinner. It is a top flight restaurant and the food is inventively prepared. It has a nice view of the Courtyard of MOMA and it is nice except when full of people and you may feel a little like being in a fish bowl. The only downside is the price but it is NYC."
Dined on 7/18/2014
The staff was extremely friendly
and helpful. We had a delicious dinner too."
Dined on 7/17/2014
Just simple, fresh and tasty food,
great presentation ... Service was very professional but also friendly and helpful. We had good time...should have just one drink... gets expensive !!!!"
Dined on 7/16/2014
The restaurant is awesome, great
food. We we t before visiting the Moma museum, which makes the visit to the museum alot more special."
Dined on 7/16/2014
food was very good but only a
tasting menu was offered. food was very slow coming out of the kitchen and this was a Monday night."
Dined on 7/14/2014
The combination of atmosphere,
creative cuisine, delicious drinks and perfect service come together to provide you with a very special dining experience. Outstanding."
Dined on 7/12/2014
We were three people. Two had the
four course meal and one the tasting all with pairings. We often had three different wines, but it always felt graceful and comfortable. The service was professional and talented but also warm and fun. We became acquainted with several servers and felt like regulars. Each course was adequate in size and delicious."
Dined on 7/12/2014
Perhaps the Bar adjacent to the
formal dining room at the Modern offers far better value for tasting and people watching, but the loveliness of the main dining room as a special spot from which to contemplate the sculptures in the MOMA garden whilst sipping wildly overpriced spirits cannot be unappreciated. The servers are solemn and respectful, and did get us out for theater as promised with time to spare. Their pleasantness in such a setting was quite welcome and the chocolate cart at the end a fantastic touch. One of our appetizers had only a tiny piece of lobster with peaches and did not work, but the scallop and beef entrees made up for this. Desserts were more satisfying . But especially nice was the ambience."
Dined on 7/12/2014
The best meal I had in New York.
Amazing service too!"
Dined on 7/11/2014
This restaurant gives innovative
and superb food, the price fixe menu is well balanced or choices."

Industry & Economy - Budget
Nothing much to cheer, says shipping industry
Our Bureau
Mumbai , March 1
THE shipping industry had nothing much to cheer about in the Union Budget presented by the Finance Minister, Mr P. Chidambaram, on Monday.
Reacting to the Budget, Mr A.R. Ramakrishnan, chief operating officer of Essar Shipping Ltd, said though the Budget proposal did not offer any major direct benefits to the shipping industry, it, however, did provide in various measures for the development of the industry, which could benefit shipping in some ways.
"With the reduction of corporate tax rate, effective tonnage tax for shipping industry will also reduce. Also, with the Government identifying the port sector as one of the four sectors to be supported through SPV for infrastructure projects, investments in ports and port-related projects are expected to get a boost," he pointed out.
Commenting on the Budget, Mr S.K. Shahi, Chairman of SKS (Ship) Ltd, said, "There is nothing very spectacular about this year's Budget for the shipping industry, with the largest sops going to the textiles, IT and construction industry."
He lamented that although the dredging sector has been brought under the tonnage tax regime, inland vessels have been left out.
He felt that the Government should consider setting up a separate Shipping Development Bank that could provide loans to ship owners at rates close to LIBOR.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (April 19, 2013) - The Bridgeport Sound Tigers have announced that defenseman Mike Dalhuisen and forwards Riley Wetmore and Greg Miller have agreed to terms on American Hockey League contracts for the 2013-14 season. In addition, the Sound Tigers have announced that Wetmore has signed an Amateur Tryout Contract (ATO) and has joined the team in Portland in time for tonight's game against the Pirates.
Dalhuisen, 24, will turn professional next season after following a four-year career at Quinnipiac University (ECAC). The Nymegen, Holland native set career highs this season in goals (8), assists (8), points (16) and penalty minutes (72) for the Bobcats, who spent the second half of the 2012-13 campaign as the top-ranked team in NCAA Division I Men's Hockey and made it to the national championship game in Pittsburgh last weekend.
The 6'3, 210-pound defenseman appeared in 153 games with the Bobcats, totaling 38 points (12 goals, 26 assists) and 223 penalty minutes.
Prior to attending Quinnipiac, Dalhuisen split three seasons with the Lincoln Stars and Chicago Steel in the United States Hockey League, posting 29 points (five goals, 24 assists) and 353 penalty minutes in 123 games from 2006-09.
Wetmore, 23, joins the Sound Tigers after completing his collegiate career at the University of Massachusetts Lowell this season and captaining the River Hawks to the Frozen Four in Pittsburgh. The Swanton, VT native recorded 16 goals and 11 assists in 41 games this season, and was named to the Hockey East All-Conference Second Team. Wetmore has joined the Sound Tigers in Portland, and could make his professional debut tonight against the Pirates.
The 6'0, 195-pound forward served as UMass Lowell's captain for two seasons, and appeared in every game for the River Hawks over his four-year collegiate career. In 152 games, Wetmore totaled 111 points (50 goals, 61 assists) and 124 penalty minutes. Prior to attending UMass Lowell, Wetmore spent four seasons with the Green Mountain Glades of the Eastern Junior Hockey League, amassing 155 points (63 goals, 92 assists) in 139 games.
Miller, 23, recently completed his four-year career at Cornell University (ECAC). The Toronto, ON native averaged a point per game this season with the Big Red, posting 14 goals and 19 assists in 33 contests, was named to the All-Ivy League First Team and was voted ECAC Hockey's Best Defensive Forward. The 6'0, 195-pound forward led Cornell with a plus-18 rating, and finished his collegiate career with 98 points (34 goals, 64 assists) in 129 games.
Prior to attending Cornell Unversity, Miller split four seasons in the Ontario Junior Hockey League (OPJHL) between the Toronto Thunderbirds and St. Michael's Buzzers, compiling 227 points (100 goals, 127 assists) in 189 games.
The Sound Tigers return to action tonight in Portland against the Pirates before returning to Webster Bank Arena this weekend to close out their regular-season slate on Saturday against Providence at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday against Portland at 3:00 p.m. For tickets, call the Sound Tigers at (203) 334-GOAL or visit soundtigers.com.
