The Island of Malta region
The warmth of the Mediterranean sun, the clarity of the Mediterranean sea and the welcoming smiles of the Maltese people have won the hearts of visitors for years, but this tiny island also offers a host of diverse attractions and activities for those seeking a short break from the winter blues.
From balmy beaches and trendy nightclubs, to magnificent ancient monuments and a stunning legacy of centuries' old art and culture, Malta has something for everyone to enjoy.
Life is good on the Mediterranean island of Malta: warm sunshine, starry nights and lots to do, see, taste, feel and remember. Whether you're just visiting for a few days or spending a long lazy month on the island, you'll find Malta is alive with people, parties and events whatever the season. From summer jazz festivals and lunchtime concerts to thrilling theatre, music and arts events that pack the island's cultural calendar all year round.
Malta's strategic position midway between Europe and Africa made it a key possession for the many different conquering nations that ruled it throughout its 7000 years of history: from Neolithic man to the Ancient Romans, the Byzantines, the Moors, the Normans, the Knights of St John, the French and the British, all of whom have left a wealth of architectural and cultural treasures.
From the Baroque city of Valletta, a churches, galleries, shops, open air markets and boasting the remarkable St John's Co-Cathedral, home to Caravaggio's masterpiece the Beheading of St John, to the old capital, Mdina, the so-called 'Silent City, that quietly evokes a bygone era with its elegant stone palaces and hushed cobbled streets, to the St Paul's Catacombs in Rabat, Ggantija Neolithic Temples in Gozo, the World War II shelters and the Forts of St Elmo and St Angelo. In summer, get ready to enjoy firework fuelled village feasts in honour of village saints.
For those seeking adventure and an adrenaline rush, an early morning dive in the crystal clear waters of the Med checking out old war ships might be the thing to set your pulse racing, or test your endurance rock climbing high above the deep blue sea on the majestic Dingli Cliffs or head to the airport and enjoy the view from above with a skydiving jump. Wind down afterwards with a leisurely round of golf and afternoon tea on the lawns. The stunning historical settings of Valletta, Mdina or St Julians make the perfect backdrop to relaxation, sightseeing, concerts or sports.
Evenings are fun filled and full of activity: start with a typical Mediterranean fish dinner under the stars and continue with a buzzing night in one of Malta's many sophisticated nightlife venues. There's lots of choice too... pick from one of the hundreds of restaurants and cafes serving a wide range of local and international cuisine, and enjoy the island's vibrant nightlife, with its myriad pubs, wine bars, jazz clubs, discos, nightclubs and casinos offering entertainment for all ages.
Saint Julian's
St. George's Bay lies between St. Julians Bay and Malta's nightlife capital Paceville, within walking distance to either of them, but in a quieter niche with extended sea and bay views of this most popular place. Picturesque St. Julians, still used by fishermen, is lined with bougainvillea-clad cafes and restaurants; Paceville offers a vibrant nightlife to suite all tastes from nightclubs to quieter piano bars, together with some great bars and even greater eating places. A mix between a cosmopolitan town and a fishing village, St. Georges is an ideal place for fun and relaxation, and at the same time, a centre-point for easy commuting and touring of the island. A 16-cinema complex is only metres up the road, as is the tenpin bowling centre, together with shopping and leisure centres that are unique to this island. St. Georges offers all kinds of watersports and scuba-diving. A culmination of dazzling lights and dimly-lit streets in a safe environment for families and friends alike.
The coastline from here to neighbouring St Julian's all the way to Sliema constitutes Malta's main coastal resort. The promenade, which runs for several kilometres from Gzira just south of Sliema to St Julian's, is ideal for walking, jogging or just relaxation. There are plenty of seats along the promenade, which is also dotted with little bistros, restaurants, cafes, ice-cream parlours and the like. On summer evenings the seafront becomes a sociable meeting place for locals and tourists alike. The coastline has two tower fortifications: a watch tower built in the 17th century; the other was built by the British in the 1880's.

"Great apartment - but in need of some TLC"
We recently returned from a week's stay at Sands. Paul and Josanne were really helpful hosts, arranging our airport transfers and explaining lots about the local area and the apartment set-up whe… More
We wish to thank these guests for having stayed with us in September. Admittedly, we did have a few major issues with the weeks' previous guests, which unfortunately has still left us reeling from the damages sustained. The breaking of the two 10mm thick glass doors to the shower and the main bedroom still leaves us baffled, and although we tried tirelessly to get these replaced in the shortest time possible, we had no control over their production and installation. We would like to assure these guests that other repairs were also required to the apartment after the above incidents but it is never easy to fix, replace or repair damages in what is literally a 145 square metre apartment which the previous guests treated with indifference, to say the least. It is true that these lost their damage deposit, but quite honestly this barely scratches the surface of the damages sustained - and yet, despite the letdown, we still do not shy away from greeting new guests with open arms and a warm heart.
We have taken note of the items mentioned in the review and assure our guests that these are being attended to imminently. We also wished to thank the guests for having noted that we acted immediately on any issue that was brought to our attention during their stay, something which we pride ourselves of to help guarantee our guests' satisfaction.
September is perhaps the 'stickiest' month, with humidity scoring high during this particular month; in some cases, guests may feel that they require additional air conditioning. Sands is supplied with 3 air conditioners (one large one in the open plan lounge/kitchen/dining, and another 2 smaller ones in each of the 2 bedrooms).
We are now pleased to inform our guests that the heating system for the Jacuzzi spa has been put in place; earlier we had not seen the urgency to have this installed during the summer however this is now up and running, and for which the last guests (mid-October) informed us that they made good use of. The gazebo has now also fitted with 'xmas' lights, making the spa an even more enticing leisure to enjoy, not just during the day.
Once again, we wish to thank these guests for having taken the time to write their review and invite them again to visit Malta.

"Very mixed feelings about this apartment and our stay."
My daughter and I chose this apartment on the basis of the description, as we hadn't been to Malta before. We had my three year old grandson with us. We met up there- they from France and me from… More
We highly regret having had the first unsatisfied customers staying at this apartment. Having been in this business for a number of years, we can fully understand that some guests can be more demanding than others, but that does not alter our approach to provide the best service possible.
Following a slight hiccup for pick-up on arrival (provided free of charge), the guests indicated their dissatisfaction about the damp weather and the cold atmosphere in the apartment. The review indicates that we should have better explained how everything works on arrival, but as you may recall, your arrival time was after 01:00 and we are sure we would have been very impolite to have bothered you at that time with an explanation of all the gizmos and appartus. The apartment also provided an information book on how everything works, however it seems this must have been overlooked. You had however still managed to work all the air conditioners, heater and dehumidifier in the first few days, but then said that these were complicated to operate and also that some of these didn't work afterwards.
We immediately offered these guests alternative accommodation because our prime goal is to make sure that all our guests enjoy their stay, whether they stay with us or not, in any of our other apartments, or, if they wished, to move to a hotel or accommodation of their choice, but these preferred to stay with us instead.
During the time of their stay (cut short to 5 nights) we received numerous emails from them to which we always responded to diligently and helpfully, also making various visits to the apartment to see to the guests' needs. To further verify that we were not after the rent, we actually allowed to guests to stay without having paid the rental balance (which they should have done upon entry to the apartment but only paid towards the end of their stay) and also forfeited taking the damage guarantee deposit, which was a risk we decided to take. Practically we were at their beck and call at all times, but were never disrespectful because we understand that, no matter how hard one tries, it is impossible to please the whole world.
Other than the scores of emails received, we also received a number of sms messages. Again these were all courteously replied to and followed upon. We never classify any of these to be 'ridiculous' requests because other than renting the apartment, we continually offer the service of making sure our guests are well taken care of during their stay. But if I may, one of these was for car hire, for 2 days, at 23:00 at night, for next day delivery at 09:00. No one works at that time, and yet we did our best to have the car delivered to the guests at the requested time and place.
As the guests rightly noted in their review, their week's stay in February probably had the worst weather in all winter, but that is hardly our fault, and regrettably that is something that no one can guarantee. Eventually when the guests did leave, they wanted to go to a hotel with a pool - but if this were their intention in the first place, then unfortunately we could not provide this for them as the splash pool is only in use after May (even if we have now moved forward on this subject as well, and for which we shall elaborate later).
To continue replying to the review, Sands is located right on the seafront with wonderful views, with the promenade just below you (and so you really go down rather than up, contrary to the guests' comments). The area where the apartment is located in has been described as 'very wild' in the review; we feel that this is highly overstated, otherwise we are sure you would have moved out much earlier than after 5 nights, when you actually had the opportunity to do so at the outset, even at our own invitation. The apartment has been described by other guests (and we kindly invite these guests and other potential visitors to read the reviews) as being pristinely quiet but understand that an older person may have reservations although we have had many of an even more mature age who stayed with us here and enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Kids are out to enjoy themselves, they cause no one any harm, and we are sure you were also never bothered by any of these because we would have certainly been made aware of this during your stay.
We did have workers doing some upgrade works in the garden (paving) but because of the torrential rain that fell the week prior, all works had to stop abruptly, and the guests were made aware of this. Because some water unfortunately made its way through the unfinished tiling outside, this was the reason why dehumidifiers were used on the first nights, which, as also claimed by the guests themselves in their emails, the situation got better immediately.
We did have guests staying with us in this same apartment just a couple of weeks before and who also wrote a review, claiming that they couldn't have been happier despite the cold and wet weather. A quick read of their review will testify what we do for our guests on arrival, but unfortunately these guests have regrettably avoided mentioning these (incidentally, other than the complimentary food pack, we also gave these guests a cake as a gesture of our regret at the mishap for being late in collecting them on arrival).
Although we feel that the review is in most ways contradictory (damp apartment but comfortable warm beds; nice views yet hilly to get to promenade; heater and air conditioners didn't work and were complicated to operate yet the apartment was very well equipped; chose this apartment on the basis of the description, but then compliment it on its location, space and comfort), we really felt sorry for the guests who seemed to stay indoors and continually correspond by email when these could have simply called us on the phone provided in the apartment, for free, and instead enjoyed their time visiting the beautiful places on the island. At one stage, they also wrote that they regretted being a continuous nuisance, but we were never happy to see them go, and the guests' choice of words 'thoroughly fed up of us' is not our words and very much out of place. The guests may have an opinion about the apartment, but should never attempt to describe our emotions. To further attest this, in one of your emails, you wrote "you have been very flexible and understanding of our concerns and we respect your professionalism" - please do not take this away from us now as we would feel robbed of our dedication. The guests seem to fail to remember that even though they left Sands earlier than their actual date of departure, we still corresponded with them, providing them with a full explanation on the use of indoor swimming pools and the safety issues that they should look out for, also informing them that we were at their complete disposal for their remaining days on the island, such is our service and dedication.
On seeing that the guests had an issue with the cold atmosphere in the apartment, we actually topped up the electrical meter over and above your allowance without asking for additional payment. On the day of your departure, as you were well aware check-out was at 10:00 but we allowed you to stay for as long as it pleased you. You later informed us that you were unable to cook soup (around noon) because all the power supply allowance had run out. When we later came over to the apartment and replenished this, we found out that ALL the lights were left on in the apartment, including the air conditioners. With all due respect, please be fair in your comments and not one-sided in almost everything you write and have a clear conscience about this.
To close off, we have recently been thinking about some upgrades to Sands, and were especially concentrated about our winter, spring and autumn guests. As the water temperature in the splash pool only allows our guests to make full use of it as of early June until early September, we have now already set in motion for the replacement of this otherwise summer-only fun toy. Instead we shall be providing our guests with a 2.2m x 2.2m jacuzzi spa which can be used anytime of the year as it is also equipped with a heater. But we're not stopping just there, we shall also be installing a gazebo over this, with curtains and tie-backs, which can be zipped up and closed during winter to keep out the cold, thus guaranteeing a year-round use for this new installation which we hope will be a hit with all our guests.

A big thank you, not only for having written such a wonderful review, but also for having stayed with us last month. It was a pleasure meeting you and the family, and the drive over from the airport to the apartment somehow served as a quick introduction.
We always try to pamper our guests as best as we can, and are glad that you appreciated our little thoughts and service.
We have recently been thinking about some upgrades to Sands, and were especially concentrated about our winter guests. Unfortunately the weather is a bit too cold to swim at this time of the year, although we have to admit you did really great by making use of the barbeque, but your review has given us further food for thought. As the splash pool can only be used from May (earliest) until the beginning of September as the water is too cold anytime during the summer shoulder months, we have now already set in motion for the replacement of this otherwise summer-only fun toy. Instead we shall be providing our guests with a 2.2m x 2.2m jacuzzi spa which can be used anytime of the year as it is also equipped with a heater. But we're not stopping just there, we shall also be installing a gazebo over this, with curtains and tie-backs, which can be zipped up and closed during winter to keep out the cold, thus guaranteeing a year-round use for this new installation which we hope will be a hit with all our guests.
At the same time, although this is just an idea for now, we may also be adding an extra bedroom later next year. So we are keeping really busy.
It would be great to have you staying with us again, and if you should return in winter again, we are sure you will appreciate being able not only to make use of the barbeque but also to serve and sip the drinks while relaxing in the spa.
Our best of wishes to all of you and looking forward to your next visit.

We would like to thank these guests for having stayed with us, even if only for a short time. We treat all our guests with the highest respect, irrespective of their length of stay, because all guests are important to us, and we wish them to go back home with great memories of their holiday.
It was a pleasure meeting you on your last day and having a little chat before you left, so give my regards to San Francisco and Pier 39, my family's favourite, having been there just weeks before.
All the best for the new year. and thank you for the lovely review.

We thank you for your lovely review. Even though our encounter at our house on the last day was brief, it was a wonderful hour spent together and wished there could have been more opportunities to get to know our guests more. It is always our prerogative to make our guests feel at home, and sometimes, when our busy schedule allows us the time and space, we actually live up to that promise by having our guests invited over to our house to spend the last few hours (or day) lounging by the pool to wind off before going back home again.
Our love and hugs to this lovely family.

"Great location but a few issues on arrival"
I want to start with the positives; the location is excellent, close enough to the main strip for a night out in the bars/clubs of paceville but located so you don't hear the nightlife ; a very … More
We would first of all like to thank our guests for having chosen to stay with us and also for recommending our property to others.
As mentioned in the review we did have an issue with the previous guests who, on their day of departure (earlier in the day) we had to find out that these caused us extensive damage which unfortunately could not be repaired in one day, and also especially being a Saturday. The glass to the main bedroom door had been literally 'walked through' and although we made an emergency order for this it could not be delivered before the beginning of the week. Likewise, some of the doors for the kitchen cupboards also lost some of their adjustments due to mishandling.
As mentioned by our guests, ALL of these were repaired by the middle of the week (unfortunately it will take a little longer to repair the broken tiles mentioned in the email, but we made sure that these are secure and not in a position to cause any harm or accident to our guests).
Although the previous guests were sorry for the damage they caused and paid up for their misbehaviour, it is not so much the repayment for the required repairs, but the hassle, delays and inconvenience of getting things back in shape again. These same words were also relayed to the guests upon their arrival in the apartment – it was impossible for us to inform these guests about the required repairs anytime earlier because it was only earlier that morning, when probably they were still on the plane, when we discovered the damages in the apartment.
As luck would have it, the washing machine also decided to pack it in and although we did look for a similar replacement (the machine is a washing machine/drier combination with specific measurements for the built-in cupboard space), we were informed that this would be available by the end of the month. Because of this, and as also noted by our guests, we provided a free laundry service to them.
We are also looking into the other repairs as mentioned by our guests and will made amends as soon as possible. Having said that, we assure our future guests that attention is already being addressed towards the issues mentioned by the guests (most of which were resolved while they were still in the apartment as confirmed by the guests themselves, and for which we thank them for having appreciated our prompt attention).
The complimentary food pack mentioned by the guests consists of Maltese bread, sliced bread, butter, Maltese cheese, Maltese crackers, packet of ham, bottle of water, bottle of sparkling wine, small cake or biscuits, 2 packets of milk (skimmed and full cream), and small packets of tea, coffee and sugar – food packs are normally meant to last for a day but these definitely go beyond this. We also provide bin liners and toilet paper in each bathroom, but we do not supply for the whole stay. Reference the hand soap and detergents, we have stopped supplying these following an incident with past guests who were allergic to some of the products provided.
The guests have also complimented us, and for which we thank them, to have mentioned the fast internet service we provide in the apartment. We aim for the highest service in all the facilities we provide in all of our apartments to ensure satisfaction for an increasingly challenging market and customer demands.
We would like to close off by thanking the guests for having compared Sands with the hotels in the vicinity and also for noting that the apartment is great value for money.

"Comfortable and convenient stay for our dive trip"
My husband and I chose to stay here because we were spending a week in Malta to dive and we wanted a comfortable place to come home to and cook at. This apartment went above and beyond those needs!
To start, we were picked up at the airport by the owners' son and driven to the apartment, where he showed us around before leaving. We were greeted with some great Maltese snacks and wine as well as tea, bread, and a couple bottles of water and milk. (We were told that the water in Malta was not great to drink from tap because of all of the minerals in it.) At this point I should mention that while we had all of these great things to greet us, you must bring the following yourself: toilet paper (there is none there when you get there, so travel with a roll), hand soap, and paper towels. All of this is very easy to buy nearby though!
The apartment was very comfortable and spacious for my husband and I. The wifi is free and very fast and we had tons of satellite tv stations to choose from. There's plenty of cookware and a grill to use out back in the private courtyard if you wish.
The location is STEPS away from Paceville nightlife. Not really our scene, but we loved sitting at one of the bars and people-watching. Even though you are so close to nightclubs, bars, and strip clubs, the apartment is still pristinely quiet at night. Another location plus is that your front door opens to overlook St. George's bay, and it's a 3 minute walk to the beach and the hop on hop off bus stop. Conveniently for us, the dive company that we picked (Starfish) happened to be across the bay from the apartment, an easy 5 minute walk. There's a second dive shop (Cresta) in this area as well.
Paul and Josanne were gracious hosts. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. When we had a question about the water heating system, Josanne came over that day to help us out. On our last day, our flight was not until late afternoon, so Paul and Josanne brought us to their house and let us sit by the pool for the afternoon. We were also able to use a small apartment to shower and change before heading to the airport. The ride to the airport is not included in your rental cost but was only 20 euro, which is equivalent to, if not less than, cab fare.
I cannot imagine a better equipped, more convenient, more hospitable stay than at the Sands!
It is always our pleasure to make sure that our guests enjoy their holiday to the fullest; if we can add that little bit of extra personal touch to help make this a truly memorable experience on the island, it will always come from the heart.
A big thank you to this lovely young couple for having stayed with us and also for posting their experience with us on this website. We also have to apologize for not having provided the apartment with the mentioned toiletries and assure you this was an oversight on our part as it is standard procedure and practice to have our guests greeted in the best way possible on arrival.
Malta is infact a great place to see and if you love diving, then you can say that you couldn't have chosen better. It would be a real treat to have you bringing friends along next time around because notwithstanding its size, Malta is a place which offers a lot and has to be visited again (even if that's a biased opinion, but still shared by most).
Once again a big thank you to our guests,

In the Know: Why do Collier Area Transit buses stop on traffic lanes to board?
Q: I would like to know why Collier County allows public bus transportation to stop within moving traffic lanes to load and unload passengers. Most stops are within right-turn lanes, but some are directly within a thru traffic lane, causing traffic to congest behind the bus. If a deputy observed any other vehicle coming to a full stop in a traffic lane and just sitting there, a citation would be the result. Is there a special law for buses allowing them to do this? I would be interested in hearing the county's logic behind this practice.
— Joe H., North Naples
A: Passenger-carrying buses are exempt from the state law mandating that no person shall stop or park a vehicle on the paved or main-traveled portion of a highway, said Michelle Edwards Arnold, director of the county's Alternative Transportation Modes Department, which is responsible for overseeing the Collier Area Transit program.
Florida Statute 316.194 specifically permits buses to stop in a traffic lane while loading or unloading passengers when road conditions make parking off the road's paved portion hazardous or impractical.
So, the exemption in Statute 316.194 also would exempt buses from Statute 316.2045, which mandates that:
"It is unlawful for any person or persons willfully to obstruct the free, convenient, and normal use of any public street, highway, or road by impeding, hindering, stifling, retarding, or restraining traffic or passage thereon. "
The scenario asked about today happens many times a day on local roads. A portion of all bus routes in the Collier Area Transit system has on-road stops, Arnold said.
"The CAT system utilizes turn lanes for boarding and unboarding when available and convenient to the stop," she said. "There are no dedicated turn lanes for CAT in Collier County."
Even so, the county's transit system has a good safety record on the road. In FY 2012, CAT reported seven traffic incidents to the National Transit Database after logging more than 1.2 million miles, Arnold said.
Report specific unsafe bus stop conditions to CAT or the Florida Department of Transportation, which has authority over public transit systems and their bus stops, according to the Florida Administrative Code.
"The site selection and establishment of a transit bus stop shall provide the maximum safety to the users of the public transit system and vehicular and pedestrian traffic," according to the administrative code.
"If a transit bus stop is located at a site deemed to be unsafe by the Department, modification or removal shall be required by the Department and shall be at the expense of the transit bus system."
By the way, unlike a school bus stopped along a roadway, it is OK to pass a stopped public bus if it is safe to do so. Motorists, however, have a duty to yield to public buses signaling to re-enter the highway after making a stop, Florida law mandates.
"The driver of a vehicle shall yield the right of way to a publicly owned transit bus traveling in the same direction which has signaled and is re-entering the traffic flow from a specifically designated pullout bay," according to state statute 316.0815(1).
Even with this law on the books, Florida motorists do not typically yield to buses, according to a 2011 overview of yield-to-bus programs in the state by the National Center for Transit Research at the University of South Florida.

"The Humanistic approach has and continues to be the form of therapy that most closely matches my sense of the world and how human beings exist within it. Based on the fundamental concept of the power of human growth, it speaks to me of hope, of personal power, of the ability for each of us to change ourselves and our world into someone or something that we can experience differently. It seems to me that it takes courage to try to change things that matter to us - which is why I believe the therapeutic relationship is so valuable.

All Oil Created Equal?

How Oil Change Coupons Can Cost You
DIY Oil Changes
I realized that I needed some oil in my car on the way home from work one day and stopped at a little auto parts store. The only 5W-30 brand they had was "CarQuest." I was hesitant to buy it because I only use Valvoline brand. But the salesman told me that CarQuest is the exact same oil - that Valvoline makes it under this name and sells it for less. Could this be true? I have doubts that this would be the same quality. What do you think?
Jenny in Williamsburg, VA
A lot of the oil manufactures sell their product under private labels for auto stores. For instance, I was informed that Pep Boys oil is actually manufactured by Castrol, Associated Auto / Auto Pride is made by Valvoline. So it could be true that Car Quest is made by them. Now, it could also be true that he just told you that it was your brand to make a sale. None the less, one quart when the car is low will not make any difference. The slight differences in the oil are far out weighed by the damage that could be done on an engine running low on oil.
Good Luck!
Drive Safely!
Bob, The Auto Answer Man
Editor's note: The following was received about Castrol regarding Bob's answer.
Dear Bob,
I read your response to Jenny the other day on "The Car Care Clinic," and although we all enjoy reading your comments and answers, we noticed that your response to Jenny contained an incorrect statement: "... Pep Boys oil is actually manufactured by Castrol ..." Castrol does not manufacture motor oil for Pep Boys or any other auto retailer or mass merchandiser. Castrol has its own brands: Castrol GTX, Castrol SYNTEC BLEND and Castrol FULL SYNTHETIC, which it markets and distributes to major retailers and specialty stores. Those outlets carry our products under our label only. Now that you have this information, please feel free to share it with your readers in the future.

The Greater Good - I'm in Love
Artist: The Greater Good
Producer: DJ Finyl
Album: The Goodness EP
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 10 votes )
Hip-hop has a long tradition of producer/emcee combos (ex. Gangstarr) and tracks that use women as a metaphor for a larger topic (ex. Common's Used to Love H.E.R.), and impressively The Perfect Formula - making their DJBooth debut today – combine both with their new single I'm in Love. Comprised of Booth-approved lyricist Marion Write and producer DJ Finyl, here Perfect Formula has brought along newcomers Verbal E and Fame for some dope, reference-heavy rhymes over Finyl's soulful beat that draw a direct line between their troubled relationships with women and their native Las Vegas: "Give me the cold shoulder but she's still too hot / she even had the nerve to tell me that she killed Tupac." I'll give you a minute to figure out that line…yeah, there you go. Told you the metaphors were heavy. Do Marion Write and DJ Finyl have the perfect formula for DJBooth success? Are people finally tired of my terrible puns? We'll find out shortly. Get to commenting people.

Talking Head Shots

from Bob McKenzie of TSN,
Much to the chagrin of the Detroit Red Wings, the NHL has decided not to pursue supplementary discipline against Canuck defenceman Willie Mitchell for his high, hard hit on Johan Franzen Wednesday night. So the net result stands as a two-minute minor for interference. But the Mitchell hit on Franzen could yet be something of a turning point in the head shot debate that has been ongoing in the wake of devastating hits on Trevor Letowski, Aaron Downey, Jason Williams and now Franzen.continued

Texas Politics: Mike Modano Wants Your Vote

By Alanah D I frequently complain that the NHL's teams never seem willing to exhibit even the slightest sense of humor or originality in their marketing. But today I see that the Dallas Stars have produced this video to solicit votes for Modano's trip to the 2007 All Star game. With Brett Hull being the self-described "Ambassador of Fun" and "Campaign Manager", how can they go wrong?

From Bill Beacon at The Canadian Press, via The Daily Herald-Tribune,
A scheduling fluke brought Mikko Koivu to Montreal just in time for a slightly early celebration of his big brother's birthday. Saku Koivu turns 32 on Thursday, a day after Mikko's Minnesota Wild were to play Saku's Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre. The brothers celebrated the occasion on Tuesday night at the Canadiens captain's house. ''It's the only chance we get to see him in the season, so it's fun,'' said Saku.Continued...

Thrashers/Caps Continue Battle

from Tarik El-Bashir of the Washington Post,
Both coaches -- Washington's Glen Hanlon and Atlanta's Bob Hartley -- are likely facing thousands of dollars in fines, and at least one player from each team -- probably Donald Brashear of the Capitals and Thrashers captain Scott Mellanby -- will be suspended for one game. Brashear and Mellanby each received penalties for instigating, fighting major and a game misconduct. Capitals veteran Brian Sutherby also received instigating and fighting penalties, as well as a game misconduct, opening the possibility of a suspension for him. "It was a 4-2 hockey game and someone, a 21-year-old kid with a cut mouth, gets his head knocked off with a high hit and one of their players is grabbing our captain, grabbing his cage and shaking it," Hanlon said. "What the heck are they supposed to do?"read on (reg. req.) Update 3:59 p.m. EST: Suspensions, fines confirmed. From TSN,
Washington Capitals forwards Donald Brashear and Brian Sutherby and Thrashers' forward Scott Mellanby, have each been suspended automatically for one game, while Washington head coach Glen Hanlon has been fined $30,000 and Atlanta head coach Bob Hartley fined $10,000.

Maurice Not Happy With Refs

from the Globe and Mail,
Neither Maurice nor any of his players was happy about the way the game was officiated. "I was not looking for an explanation," Maurice said, explaining his heated words at the referees after the game. "I don't think there is an explanation." Was there another memo sent to the referees from their National Hockey League bosses to tighten the standard of officiating once again? "I don't know what standards were out there," Maurice said. "I know all you guys see a gazillion games, I don't need to tell you, so speak your mind. You know what you saw. I lost five pounds barking."read on

from Gary Thorne at USA TODAY,
Talking with an NHL ref recently only highlighted the fact that the changes are here to stay. "We are graded on every game and the biggest part of that grading is maintaining the calls that keep the game moving," he said. "It is very clear that we had better not let up on enforcement, or we will pay the price." The league wanted the skills of the players to be on display, and that is happening. Speed matters. In an interview with USA TODAY on Nov. 6, Brian Burke, the GM of the Ducks, said that his definition of the new NHL team is one with "good foot speed and a high hockey IQ." That is just the kind of team Burke has put together in Anaheim. The construction of NHL teams is the second part of the new NHL, and that goes hand in hand with the salary cap.more

Hitchcock, hired by the Blue Jackets yesterday, is legendary for his demanding style behind the bench, his my-way-or-thehighway approach, and, of course, his winning ways. The Blue Jackets will practice for Hitchcock for the first time this morning and play their first game under him Friday in Philadelphia. Brace yourselves, boys. "I'm sure some guys are nervous," Blue Jackets left winger Rick Nash said. "But I'm sure more guys will be excited than nervous.

Gordie Welcome's You

from Bob Duff via the Vancouver Sun,
Gordie Howe was thrilled to be made an entrance. "It's a lot better than an exit," joked the 78-year-old Detroit Red Wings' legend. It could be said that the path to Hockeytown was cemented with Howe's elbows. Wednesday, they made it official. Thirty-three years after previous ownership essentially shoved Howe out the door, the Wings named one after him. The west entrance to Joe Louis Arena was officially christened the Gordie Howe Entrance prior to Detroit's game with the Vancouver Canucks. The move recognizes Howe's contribution to the establishment of Detroit as one of top National Hockey League teams and also honours the 60th anniversary of his debut as a Red Wing. Still, there was plenty of irony in the announcement.continued

Talking Turkey

from Damien Cox at ESPN,
So far, the NHL season has been relatively low-key with precious little controversy, but that doesn't mean there haven't already been more than a few missteps and goof-ups worthy of mention. Some teams that started off as turkeys have already managed to evolve into higher forms of life. The defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, for example, began the season last month with four straight defeats. Since then, however, the Canes have been a solid 12-5-2, so they escaped the tag of early-season turkey. Ditto for the New York Islanders.more
