HAZARD – One person was transported to the Hazard ARH for treatment Monday after witnesses said he was struck by a vehicle on Main Street.
Hazard Police Chief Minor Allen said Hazard resident Larry Jackson was apparently struck by the vehicle just past 10 a.m. on Monday. He said Jackson was on the sidewalk when police arrived on the scene, but could not confirm his condition.
Cole Carrier, of Perry County, said he saw the incident in which Jackson was hit as he attempted to cross the street from in front of the WSGS radio building toward the county courthouse. He said Jackson threw up his hand so the driver could see him before he started to cross the street.
"That truck just kept coming and hit him," Carrier said. "It knocked him on the ground."
Carrier said Jackson stood and attempted to speak with the driver before the driver pulled away.
"He come around to the driver's side of the truck, and that old man just took off and never stopped," Carrier said, adding that Jackson had suffered a laceration above his eye.
Major James East with the Hazard Police Department said he took two witness statements at the scene. He noted there was blood on the crosswalk in front of the radio building, but could not comment on Jackson's condition.
The Herald will have more on this story as details become available.

Have I told you about the scent of jasmine? Have I spoken about the smell of the sea? The earth is scented. And I perfume myself to enhance what I am. That's why I can not wear a perfume that bothers me. Perfuming is an instinctive wisdom. And like all art, it requires some knowledge of yourself..."

Weil Zibeline and an additional bottle of Miss Balmain
Creed Vintage Tabarome.

Still a rich price ($350-$500.)
Polo Crest and Gucci Nobile.
Gobin Daude - Nuit Au Desert
I sampled this one some years back when Les Senteurs stocked it. Forgot about it for a while I tested other stuff and the next thing I knew the whole line was gone forever.

WASHINGTON D.C. - U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA), Chairman of the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee, today released a report entitled "Manufacturing in America: Challenges and Policy Solutions." The report lays out policies that the U.S. can pursue to ensure global competitiveness in an industry that accounts for 11.5 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and supports jobs across broad sectors of the economy.
"The manufacturing industry is a direct source of good American jobs and drives innovation that expands opportunities for workers in a variety of sectors," said Senator Casey. "As Chairman of the JEC I have focused on manufacturing and keeping America competitive, and this report outlines several important steps Congress can take to protect our industries and create jobs."
The report highlights several areas key to protecting and strengthening American manufacturing.
Education and Training: Employers are seeking workers with science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) skills, but our education system is failing to produce enough adequately equipped workers. Improving STEM education, protecting Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and a focus on training for jobs in regionally strong
industries would help more Americans become qualified for manufacturing jobs.
Transportation Infrastructure: The manufacturing sector relies on transportation infrastructure to move raw materials and transport products to market, but U.S. investment in infrastructure has fallen behind many competitors. Possible solutions include encouraging the development of public-private infrastructure partnerships and
the establishment of a national infrastructure bank.
Tax Policy: Changes to the tax code could improve the desirability of the U.S. as a location for manufacturers, such as making the research and development tax credit permanent and making it more equitable for manufacturers to move jobs back to the
Intellectual Property (IP) Theft: More can be done to protect IP, such as the establishment of an IP enforcement network and mandating that future free trade agreements include certain IP rights standards.
Currency: An undervalued Chinese currency places U.S. manufacturers at a competitive disadvantage, but federal policies to direct the Secretary of the Treasury to take action against countries with currencies found to be fundamentally misaligned could give U.S. manufacturers a chance to more fairly compete.
The full report is available here.

A LAKE District boat is to join a thousand-strong fleet sailing in the Queen's Diamond Jubilee procession on the Thames this summer.
One of Windermere's well-worn wooden tourist vessels has been selected by Royal organisers to take part in the event – the largest flotilla in modern times.
More than two million people are expected to watch from the embankments of the Thames as the seven-mile procession steers through London waters.
Cumbria's own aptly-named participant, The Queen of the Lake, owned by Windermere Lake Cruises, is currently being repainted and refurbished for the spectacular, on Sunday, June 3.
The flotilla will be led by Her Majesty the Queen and other members of the Royal family aboard a barge called The Spirit of Chartwell.
It will sail under 14 bridges, alongside groups of narrow boats, historic vessels including World War Two ships from the Dunkirk beaches and replica Tudor ships.
Managing director of Windermere Lake Cruises Nigel Wilkinson said: "We are delighted Cumbria will be represented at such a high-profile, patriotic event which will inevitably strike a cord with the whole country as we celebrate her Majesty the Queen and her 60-year reign together.
"We hope to be able to involve the wider Cumbria community in this project and to give some younger Cumbrians a day out that they will remember for the rest of their lives."
Boat building manager Alex Williamson and operations manager Russell Bowden will lead the team south for the patriotic event.
Windermere skipper Ron Walker will captain the boat on the day itself.
The 15-metre tourist boat, built in 1949, will be hoisted out of the water at Ambleside and driven almost 300 miles by lorry before it is launched on the Thames.
It is a reversal of the ship's initial northern voyage, 60 years ago, when she was transported to Windermere from the Thames-side town of Molsey, where she was built.
It is not the first time the Queen of the Lake has been given a Royal mark of approval. In March 2010 it carried the Prince of Wales when he visited the Lake District.
POTENTIALLY deadly blue-green algae has been found on Windermere.
The Environment Agency says it has found evidence of an algal bloom at Low Wray Bay, prompting South Lakeland District Council to issue a warning.
The authority said anyone using lakes, rivers and reservoirs should treat all blue-green algae blooms with caution and contact should be avoided as skin rashes and illness may occur if the water is swallowed.
Farmers and pet owners should also prevent livestock and animals coming into contact or drinking the affected water, as it can sometimes prove fatal for animals.
SLDC's environmental health team leader, Tracy Howard, said: "Blue-green algae can potentially make people feel quite ill if swallowed or even by just swimming in it.
"We just want people to be aware of the affects and are asking people to be extra careful and vigilant when using the lakes and rivers for recreational purposes during the summer months.
"The public should observe any notices near affected areas and avoid contact or drinking the water."
Many waters are vulnerable to problems with the algae, typically between June and November.
Experts say all blue-green algal blooms should be assumed to be toxic.
The blooms vary in colour from discoloured green, blue-green, greenish brown, or reddish brown.
Further information about blue-green algae can be found on the Environment Agency's website at www.environment-agency.gov.uk

Kelliher focused on a baseball future
Lake Stevens High pitcher is spending much of his summer on a baseball diamond
LAKE STEVENS -- Brandon Kelliher seldom takes time away from baseball, but the 17-year-old Lake Stevens High School pitcher wouldn't have it any other way.
Kelliher has spent the early parts of the summer -- and will spend most of what remains of it -- juggling obligations to various elite-level baseball teams as he not only prepares for his senior year on the mound for the Vikings, but also tries to boost his draft status with Major League Baseball scouts.
At a time of year when most kids his age want to be out enjoying the warm weather, Kelliher's focus remains on baseball.
"We have a lake house and we barely get to use it because I'm always gone," he said. "I'm always traveling."
Even when Kelliher finally gets away from the diamond, baseball isn't far from his mind.
"I love baseball," he said. "I love just being around it. I will even watch it on TV when I'm home."
Kelliher plays for Laces Baseball Academy in the Seattle Elite League as well as Marucci Elite, a Baton Rouge-based elite team that features some of the best prep baseball talent in the country.
"They are really well known, so that's how I get a lot of exposure going down there and pitching with that team," Kelliher said of the Marucci Elite.
This summer he also tried out for the USA Baseball 18-U team in North Carolina, which featured nearly 150 of the top prospects in the country. The first tryout narrows that group down to 40 players. Kelliher finished just outside the cut.
"It was a close one, but it didn't go as well as I had planned," he said.
He may have missed the cut, but according to his mother, Jenni, one of the coaches said his pitches hit 94 miles per hour on the radar gun, which is the fastest he's been recorded throwing to date.
After returning from the USA tryout, he was back to work with Laces, pitching the first inning and driving in the team's only run in a recent 6-1 loss to the Everett Merchants.
Kelliher's college decision already has been made. He's verbally committed to the University of San Diego, and his goal for the summer is to impress the scouts at the Major League level.
"I'm just trying to get more exposure and show the scouts from the MLB what I have and everything," he said. "I already committed to the college that I want to go to. For the summer, it's mostly about getting that exposure to get drafted, to get into the lower rounds."
How Kelliher pitches this summer and in the spring of 2014 for Lake Stevens High School will go a long way toward determining where he is selected in the MLB draft. If he is selected in the lower rounds, he will have a decision to make.
"I'm half and half right now," Kelliher said. "I don't really know. It depends on where I get drafted or not. I do want to go to school, that would be a really good experience. But if (I was drafted) in the lower rounds and they offered me a good amount of money that I couldn't refuse, I would definitely do it."
Getting selected in the lower rounds of the draft is looking like more and more of a reality every day. Kelliher is in the top 150 of many of the national rankings and according to the Baseball Northwest Top 50, he is the No. 3 prospect in Washington State for the Class of 2014.
Next up for Kelliher are the Area Code tryouts this next week at PK Park in Eugene. If he makes the cut, as he did a year ago, he will again get the chance to showcase his talent against some of the best players in the country with numerous major league scouts on hand.
Lake Stevens head coach Rodger Anderson also expects no shortage of scouts when Kelliher pitches for the Vikings next year.
"From just what I have heard and seen, I would imagine there is going to be quite a few," Anderson said. "Especially if he grows a couple more inches between now and next spring, than I think there is going to be a lot. I think that is the one thing that I've heard, the one negative, is that guys think he's too small. If he gets up to 6-foot-2 by next year then he might have 20 to 30 scouts at a game."
Anderson said if Kelliher's curveball is working, then the scouts will be impressed.
"He's got what I would consider a very good high school changeup," he said. "But his curveball, when his curveball is on and when he is throwing it for strikes he is untouchable."
While scouts will be there to see Kelliher pitch, they shouldn't overlook his skills at the plate. This past season he hit in the cleanup spot for the Vikings.
"Last year, we didn't have someone who was truly a No. 4 hitter, we just needed somebody to fulfill that role -- and he did it," Anderson said. "He never complained or anything like that. It was just kind of the spot where we could just build in and around him and that really, really helped us."
It helped the Vikings so much that after a slow start to the season, they got hot in the playoffs and won the 4A District 1 championship.
"Once playoffs hit, we were in the zone," Kelliher said. "In league play, we just kind of coasted by, but once playoffs started we really buckled down. That's what we need to do all season next year."
The Vikings will have to do that -- and Kelliher will have to lead them -- if they are to accomplish what the team has already set as its goal for 2014.
"We made it further than we thought (we would this past season)," Kelliher said. "But this year, I'm hoping to lead our high school to a state championship."
Anderson said that sentiment was echoed by all of Kelliher's teammates following the Vikings elimination from the state tournament in May.
"Every single one of them said they will be satisfied with nothing less than a state championship," Anderson said. "That's what the guys are thinking. Brandon, obviously, is going to play a huge role in that. He will be our number one pitcher and I think where he might get overlooked, being a real leader at the plate for us too."

Every week, on days just like today, millions of Americans are afflicted by the debilitating condition known as The Mondays. Urban Dictionary defines The Mondays as follows:
A day generally created for the purpose of making people wish they were someone else. The day you realize you have 4 days of work ahead of you and that they won't be going by fast at all. Symptoms generally include feeling like crap, wishing you were dead, or not showing up for work in general.
For sufferers, The Mondays can be quite painful. However, there are remedies that can alleviate some of these symptoms. For one, individuals can spend their day playing games on the internet, in an attempt to push their troubles into the darkest recesses of their minds. Minesweeper is a popular choice, as is Tetris, as any fan of Office Space knows (in fact, I credit this film with . . . → Read More: How Hard Are Computer Games?

The Springboks intend to outbully the confrontational Samoans in Friday's Test at North Harbour Stadium.
After a disappointing campaign in the Pacific Nations Cup, Samoa stunned the rugby world when they beat the Wallabies 32-23 in Sydney. Many believed the historic win signalled the beginning of something special, and the massive Samoan contingent in the greater Auckland area moved to buy tickets to the Samoa vs South Africa World Cup pool clash on 30 September.
The North Harbour Stadium will be at full capacity this coming Friday. There is a big South Africa-fan base in that part of New Zealand, but it won't compare to the number of spectators clad in the blue of Samoa.
Both sets of fans will be expecting a physical romp, and there's good reason to believe that this Samoa side will be tougher to top than sides of previous years. While they're as physical as their predecessors, they play with more structure and purpose.
The Boks have taken note of Samoa's performances at the 2011 tournament. They weren't quite good enough to beat Wales, although they were competitive for large parts of that match. They steamrolled Namibia and hammered Fiji. They're unlikely to dominate the Boks upfront, but there's no doubt that they will try to win the battle at the collisions.
It will be a bruising contest, and there may be casualties if neither side is willing to move away from an attritional approach. Samoa have already spoken about moving the ball around, but the Boks intend to take the islanders on at the coalface no matter the cost.
It's a strategy that should bring them the desired rewards, but they will be hoping that it doesn't lead to further injuries to key players a week out from a quarter-final against Australia.
Bok centre Jaque Fourie said that playing two intensely physical matches back-to-back shouldn't be a problem for this South Africa team. Following last week's win against Namibia, the Boks enjoyed a couple of days rest, and Fourie believes this has made all the difference. The Boks have used this time to recharge and prepare themselves for an all out war at the point of contact.
'It's going to be physical, I'm sure we're going to be feeling the bruises afterwards,' said Fourie. That's why it was important that we had the break. Your body needs to be fresh, but your mind needs to be fresh as well.'
Several players have stood out for Samoa in this tournament. Scrumhalf Kahn Foutali'i, who also plays for the Crusaders in the Super 15, has been one of the more direct No 9s while the 120kg winger Alesana Tuilagi will be an attacking threat if he's brought into the line. Centre Seilala Mapusua is another who will look to impose himself in the tackle.
Fourie played down the threat of these individuals. While he acknowledged their talents, he believes the collective is more dangerous than before because Samoa are now using their natural talent and inclination for contact to pursue a common goal.
'They're a very physical team, and as is the case with the Fijians, if you allow it to get loose, they will punish you. If your kicking game and first-phase is not up to standard, they will punish you.
'All round they've got a good team, so we're not going to focus on one or two players. They stay in their structures, so we have to look at how we are going to beat the team rather than the individuals. They're dangerous in broken play, but they seem to be even more dangerous now that they're structured.
'I think they've modelled their game on how the All Blacks play.'
The Boks have the pack to boss the islanders proving they don't go into the game with a complacent attitude. They will also need to take the fight to the islanders in midfield, and this is where men like Frans Steyn, Fourie and even Jean de Villiers will need to prove their worth.
'They're very direct and physical, there's no funny business,' said Fourie. 'You know what to expect, they just come straight and hard, and there defence is good as well.
'We need to be clinical in what we want to do; we need to be as direct and physical as we can be.'
In the build up to the Fiji and Namibia matches, the Boks promised to play direct, pragmatic rugby. What transpired against Fiji was a looser albeit profitable approach against a weak defence. The Boks were also too adventurous during the early stages against Namibia, and the loss of structure led to frustration and unnecessary errors.
As Fourie suggests, the clash against Samoa will require a lift in accuracy and intensity. The Boks should beat Samoa, but their success will be determined by their ability to maintain a high standard over the course of 80 minutes. A consistently physical effort will ensure they beat the Samoans by a comfortable margin and take some much needed momentum into the play-offs.

Guillain-Barre Syndrome (cont.)
In this Article
What is Guillain-Barré syndrome?
Reader Stories
Guillain-Barré syndrome is a disorder in which the body's immune system attacks part of the peripheral nervous system. The first symptoms of this disorder include varying degrees of weakness or tingling sensations in the legs. In many instances the weakness and abnormal sensations spread to the arms and upper body. These symptoms can increase in intensity until certain muscles cannot be used at all and, when severe, the patient is almost totally paralyzed. In these cases the disorder is life threatening - potentially interfering with breathing and, at times, with blood pressure or heart rate - and is considered a medical emergency. Such a patient is often put on a respirator to assist with breathing and is watched closely for problems such as an abnormal heart beat, infections, blood clots, and high or low blood pressure. Most patients, however, recover from even the most severe cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome, although some continue to have a certain degree of weakness.
Guillain-Barré syndrome can affect anybody. It can strike at any age and both sexes are equally prone to the disorder. The syndrome is rare, however, afflicting only about one person in 100,000. Usually Guillain-Barré occurs a few days or weeks after the patient has had symptoms of a respiratory or gastrointestinal viral infection. Occasionally surgery or vaccinations will trigger the syndrome.
After the first clinical manifestations of the disease, the symptoms can progress over the course of hours, days, or weeks. Most people reach the stage of greatest weakness within the first 2 weeks after symptoms appear, and by the third week of the illness 90 percent of all patients are at their weakest.

ATHENS, Ohio – It was a pitcher's duel in the opener and an offensive slugfest in the nightcap, but the end result was two victories for the Miami University softball team in its doubleheader with Ohio on Friday. The RedHawks won the first game, 1-0, off freshman Jenna Modic's first career shutout and took an 11-5 victory in the second game thanks in part to a home run and four RBI from Modic. The Red and White improve to 8-2 in the Mid-American Conference and 14-22 overall. The Bobcats fall to 4-6 in the MAC and 19-18 overall.
In the first game, Miami scored its lone run in the top of the third inning. Tiyona Marshall led off with a single through the left side. With one out, Shanyn McIntyre's sacrifice bunt advanced her to second base. Modic then doubled to center field to bring Marshall home and make it 1-0 in favor of the 'Hawks.
Modic's RBI was all she needed as she proceeded to shut down the high-powered Bobcat offense over seven innings. Ohio loaded the bases in the bottom of the first with only one out, but Modic forced a groundball double play to end the threat. The Bobcats got only one other runner to third base the rest of the game. Modic allowed six hits and struck out four.
At the plate, Modic finished 1-for-3 with one RBI. Allie Larrabee was 2-for-3 in the opener.
A pair of home runs put Miami on the board in the top of the second of the nightcap. With one out, Kylie McChesney hit a shot to right center to give the 'Hawks a 1-0 lead. After Remy Edwards drew a walk, Kristy Arbour followed with her first career home run; a two-run shot that made it 3-0.
With two outs in the top of the fourth, Tiyona Marshall singled through the right side. Hailey Reed walked to move Marshall up to second. Modic brought them all home with her first career home run, a three-run bomb over the right field wall that put Miami in front, 6-0.
The Bobcats cut the deficit to three at 6-3 off a pair of home runs in the bottom of the fourth.
In the top of the fifth, the RedHawks exploded for five more runs to break the contest open. Edwards led off with a walk, while Arbour followed with an infield single. Another infield single by Brandi Hernandez loaded the bases with no one out. Taylor Shuey drew a walk to force home a run. Two batters later, a single by Hailey Reed brought home both Shuey and Hernandez. A fielder's choice by Modic scored Marshall, while a sacrifice fly from Larrabee allowed Reed to come home and make it 11-3.
That proved to be more than enough as the Bobcats scored single runs in the fifth and sixth, but could get no closer as Miami took the nightcap, 11-5.
Modic finished the second game 2-for-5 with four RBI and one run scored. She had a total of five RBI and 8.2 innings pitched in the doubleheader. Shuey and McChesney each finished 3-for-4 with one RBI and one run scored. Arbour was 2-for-4 with two RBI and one run scored, while Marshall was 2-for-5 with two runs scored.
Miami returns to action on Saturday when it heads to Akron for a 2 p.m. contest.

Simple to design. I changed the color of the turtle to orange. Originally, it was teal. They made the design change, sent me an email to approve, and boom! And this invitation matches with the other Hawaiian style turtle designs. Awesome design.
Simply perfect
It's always scary when you order something online and haven't seen the actual version of it. I was not disappointed at all with our Save the Date magnets! The colors were exactly as I wanted them and they turned out amazing!
Absolutely Beautiful!
The invitations were everything my fiancé and I wanted, and more. I am incredibly pleased with every aspect of the invitation, and with how prompt delivery was. These are probably the nicest invitations for a wedding I have ever seen!
Lovely Magnet Save-the-Dates
We ordered our save-the-dates recently and they turned out just as we hoped. They were exactly as we designed them and they arrived within a timely manner. The only thing I wish had been included were instructions about how to put the magnets into the foil-lined envelopes (which way they needed to face). Other than that, everything was great! They also included lovely samples for wedding invitations that we will definitely look in to.
You couldn't get anymore custom then that.
Perfect to give our guests a heads up of our upcoming destination wedding at Turtle Bay in Hawaii! Service was prompt and love the sample book too.

Hamas kills suspected Israeli spies
Adel Hana / Associated Press
Palestinian gunmen ride motorcycles as they drag the body of a man who was killed Tuesday as a suspected Israeli collaborator in Gaza City on Tuesday.
Hatem Moussa / Associated Press
An elderly Palestinian walks next to a destroyed building after an Israeli strike in Gaza City on Tuesday.
Some in the crowd stomped and spit on the bodies. A sixth corpse was tied to a motorcycle and dragged through the streets as people screamed, "Spy! Spy!"
The Hamas military wing, Izzedine al-Qassam, claimed responsibility in a large handwritten note attached to a nearby utility pole. Hamas said the six were killed because they gave Israel information about fighters and rocket launching sites. Hamas did not provide any proof of the alleged collaboration.
The killing came on the seventh day of an Israeli military offensive that has killed more than 120 Palestinians, both militants and civilians. Israel has launched hundreds of airstrikes, targeting rocket-launching sites, weapons caches and homes of Hamas activists, as Palestinians fired hundreds of rockets at Israel.
In selecting its targets for airstrikes, Israel relies on unmanned spy planes, or drones, but also on a network of Palestinian collaborators who feed information to their handlers from Israel's domestic Shin Bet security service.
Israeli defense officials say Palestinian informers have been recruited ever since it captured the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem in the 1967 Mideast War. Some are recruited with promises of work permits or money, while others are blackmailed into collaborating.
There is broad consensus among Palestinians that informers for Israel deserve harsh punishment, and it is rare to hear someone speak out against killings of alleged collaborators. Such public killings have been carried out in the West Bank and Gaza since the first intifada -- or uprising -- against Israeli occupation in the late 1980s.
Human Rights Watch and other international rights groups have condemned such extrajudicial killings, as has the Palestinian Center for Human Rights, a Gaza City-based group. Human Rights Watch says Hamas has also tortured suspected collaborators.
Tuesday's killings took place in Gaza City's Sheik Radwan neighborhood.
Witnesses said a van stopped at the intersection, where four masked men pushed the six accused informers out of the vehicle. Salim Mahmoud, 18, said the gunmen ordered the six to lie face down in the street and then shot them dead.
Another witness, 13-year-old Mokhmen al-Gazhali, said the informers were killed one by one, as he mimicked the sound of gunfire.
They said only a few people were in the street at first -- most Gazans have been staying indoors because of the Israeli airstrikes -- but the crowd quickly grew after the killings. Eventually several hundred men pushed and shoved to get a close look at the bodies, lying in a jumble on the ground. One man spit at the corpses, another kicked the head of one of the dead men.
"They should have been killed in a more brutal fashion so others don't even think about working with the occupation (Israel)," said one of the bystanders, 24-year-old Ashraf Maher.
One body was then tied by a cable to the back of a motorcycle and dragged through the streets. A number of gunmen on motorcycles rode along as the body was pulled past a house of mourning for victims of an Israeli airstrike.
In Israel's last major Gaza offensive four years ago, 17 suspected collaborators who fled after their prisons were hit in airstrikes were later shot dead in extra-judicial killings.
During the current offensive, Tuesday's killings brought to eight the number of suspected informers being shot dead in public. On Friday, the body of one alleged informer was found in a garbage bin, and another was shot dead in the street. Hamas claimed responsibility for both killings.
Since seizing Gaza in 2007, Hamas has executed four informers by firing squad, and about a dozen more are on death row in Gaza.
During Israel's direct occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, some informers openly cooperated with Israeli forces. For example, one informer in the West Bank town of Jericho displayed a photograph of Israel's army chief at the time on the wall of his office, in a defiant display of his allegiance.
After Israel pulled back troops from parts of the West Bank, he and others were given refuge in Israel. Other informers were evacuated from Gaza after Israel withdrew in 2005, but Israel is believed to have maintained a network there.
Human rights groups have alleged, for example, that Gaza medical patients seeking treatment in Israel are sometimes approached by the Shin Bet at the crossing into Israel.

Speaking of Bay St., are there any rumours regarding the parking lot next to the church south of the Bay Charles Towers? I think the church sold it a while ago for a possible condo development.
^ Didn't St. Mike's sell that land so 2 condos could be built?
I recall St Mike's trying to sell it in the 80's just as the recession hit. Not sure if they actually did end up selling it.
Was in the papers last year... UofT's St. Michael's College sold the parking lot to Marco Muzzo for condos... he assured the university that, after development, the field behind the parking lot would be preserved and could be used by students (it is currently SMC's 'Frosh Field'). Muzzo also agreed to donate $5 Million to the College to spruce up SMC's lands/public art/landscaping with particular emphasis on the courtyard between Brennan Hall, Carr Hall, and Teefy Hall.I recall St Mike's trying to sell it in the 80's just as the recession hit. Not sure if they actually did end up selling it.
There's an Official Plan Amendment sign up at the NW corner of Bay and St. Joseph for the redevelopment of the St. Mike's parking lot. Three towers, 45, 37 and 20-something stories. And three other buildings, 6 stories high.
Is that new? Hasn't that been there since the late 80's when St Mike's was planning to sell the land for condos?
The sign is new. St. Mike's officially sold their land to a developer last year, I can't remember to which one, but they said at that point they were going to wait five years or something before going forward. Maybe the process has sped up.
By the time they go through the approvals process and marketing it may well be 5 years from when they said that a year ago until they break ground.
Fabulous. Bay St. is getting better by the day... It would be nice to fill up the parking lots between Dundas and Gerrard though, but this one will be a good addition.
I hope it has retail under arches!
Oh, it will. It will.
The preliminary staff report is out:
I'll stir up the storm clouds a bit:
What an outrageous proposal!
This would not be the first time that a developer has pushed the boundaries beyond the pale in an attempt to get some big increases over what is already allowed (like that 38 or so storey tower that was first proposed for the Yonge Street site just south of historic North Toronto Station), but this is just insulting.
Based on the history of recents plans the site, and the official plans in place for the greenspace at Bay and St Joseph, this application is a F-U not just to local stakeholders, but to Torontonains at large owing to the high profile frontage on Bay Street.
I am glad to see the Planning Department detailing the lengthy list of concerns that this proposal creates, and I'm looking forward to my turn at the mic at any relevant public meetings - bring them on!
steamed 42
Residential entrances on Bay Street and the loss of green space in an area with little green space? I am not excited by this project.
There is little doubt that it will change somewhat (the city is already wanting some form of a parkette) but there is also no doubt that they can go to the OMB and pretty much get what they want.
This is proposal number 1. I am interested in seeing what is next (then I can really start complaining ).
You can just see the storm that's forming oveer this one, particularily with the 37s on top of the green space at the corner of Bay and St Joseph, but the real horible part are all the townhomes ... on ... Bay ... Street! That's just stupid.

In the latest edition of "View From the Booth," Joe Tutino and Cobi Jones analyze the LA Galaxy's match against the Colorado Rapids.
Check it out below.
Landon Donovan simply can not be stopped right now.
The LA Galaxy midfielder scored two goals and one assist as the U.S. defeated Honduras 3-1 to advance to the final of the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Donovan's big night began in the 11th minute when he assisted on Eddie Johnson's opening goal. He'd add one of his own just 16 minutes later off a dish from Alejandro Bedoya. Honduras would the cut lead to one in the 52nd minute off a header by Nery Media, but Donovan put the match out of reach with his just a minute later.
Donovan now has five goals and seven assists in the Gold Cup. The U.S. will now face Panama at Soldier Field in Chicago, but may do so without head coach Jurgen Klinsmann, who was sent off late in the match and might miss the final.
Highlights are below.
CARSON, Calif. – A week ago, Gyasi Zardes sealed a 2-1 victory for the LA Galaxy against Vancouver Whitecaps FC, now the forward is looking to build on that effort with another performance against the Colorado Rapids.
Zardes could be expected to pick up the offensive slack again with Robbie Keane yet to train so far this week for LA. If Keane is unable to go, one can expect Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena to opt for the forward tandem of Jose Villarreal and Zardes yet again.
"It's another opportunity to show my potential and help out my team. If Bruce gives me another opportunity then I'm going to make it worthwhile," Zardes said. "My mentality is that I'll work hard for my teammates. My teammates give me that drive, we have great chemistry and we were well with each other. They always push me and yell at me, so once I hear them yelling at me, I just want to give it my all. It's like another burst of energy that comes out of nowhere."
As showcased in his breathtaking goal against Vancouver, Zardes' physical abilities are a key part of his game, but the forward will be tested on Saturday as he will be forced to deal with the Colorado altitude. The altitude in the Commerce City typically diminishes speedsters like Zardes, but the LA forward believes that with a solid pregame workout that he can limit the effects.
"I played in Colorado in college and the altitude is dreadful, when you're running, it's like you're winded. It's important to get a good workout in," said Zardes. "I'm just going to listen to [Strength and Fitness coach Ben Yauss] and really warm up. I want to be as prepared as possible to go in [to Colorado] and give it my all."
CARSON, Calif. – Ever steadily, Carlo Cudicini is enjoying some of his best form since joining the LA Galaxy
Since Brian Rowe was given the start against Real Salt Lake on June 8, Cudicini has started the last seven matches while leading LA to a 4-2-1 record with 15 saves. In this interview for LAGalaxy.com, Cudicini admits that sitting during Real Salt Lake was one of the turning points in his season.
As he looks to continue his hot streak in Saturday's match against the Colorado Rapids, Cudicini discusses his experience in the first half of the season and his transition to MLS.
"[When] you move from a new league, you don't expect to travel as much— the longest flight you had in England was 45 minutes. [In the U.S.], you can fly six hours then you have to travel to Costa Rica, then come back, then go to New York. It can be hectic for a guy that's never traveled that much in his career. You need to get used to certain things," said Cudicini. "Also in my last couple of seasons I haven't played consistently, and when you arrive here and you have to play Wednesday, Saturday, Wednesday, Saturday.
"I was expecting more from me, like probably our coach and our supporters," Cudicini added. "But in my career, when you commit yourself to what you want to do, then in the end, you always get results. Slowly, slowly we're getting those results."
CARSON, Calif. – Pablo Mastroeni will be making an emotional return on Saturday to his old stomping grounds at Dick's Sporting Goods Park when the LA Galaxy take on the Colorado Rapids.
Prior to being traded to LA last month, Mastroeni spent 12 seasons in Colorado where he amassed team records in appearances and starts while also leading the Rapids to their lone MLS Cup title in 2010.
Since the deal, Mastroeni has made five appearances, but made his first start in last week's 2-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC. With that first start under his belt, Mastroeni admits that his fitness is coming along as he looks to contribute to LA's efforts during the second half of the season.
"I feel good physically. Knock on wood, I've been here five weeks and I haven't had anything more than soreness. I started a weight program, I got back into my yoga routine, and physically I feel really good," said Mastroeni. "If this game was all about how feel, it'd be different you have to be mentally tuned in and want to play for something bigger than yourself. I feel the spark of trying to improve myself again amongst a new group of players, new team, and new organization. That's what keeps me going."
CARSON, Calif. –After a 10-day sojourn with Swedish Superettan club Hammarby, Bryan Gaul, Charlie Rugg and Kenney Walker are back with the Galaxy.
All three players returned last week to Southern California and participated in Monday's 4-1 MLS Reserve League victory over Chivas USA.
Although the Galaxy had noted that there was a possibility that the training stint could turn into a loan deal, Arena noted on Tuesday that the players were not of use to Hammarby.
"They decided that they didn't need them. It's that simple. That was up to that club to decide whether they could utilize the players," said Arena. "We thought that we sent them three players that they needed to look at and consider, but at the end of the day, they need to make that decision. [Former LA Galaxy defender and current Hammarby head coach Gregg Berhalter] felt that at this time, he couldn't utilize those players."
CARSON, Calif. – Robbie Rogers and Robbie Keane were not present during the last 15 minutes of training on Tuesday, but Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena is "optimistically hopeful" that they will be available for Saturday's match against the Colorado Rapids.
Both players missed out on Saturday's 2-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC with injuries as Rogers is currently suffering a right hamstring issue while Keane is dealing with a left hip flexor strain. When asked if they could be available for Saturday, Arena stated that "we will see."
"We're hopeful," said Arena. "We're hopefully optimistic that they can train and play this weekend."

The Escondido, Calif. Native joined the Galaxy academy during the 2012-13 season and tallied 10 appearances while scoring once for the LA U-18's.
The complete U.S. U-18 squad is below.
GOALKEEPERS (2): Santiago Castaño (New York Red Bulls; Union City), Ethan Horvath (Molde FK; Highlands Ranch, Colo.)

MIDFIELDERS (3): Brian Iloski (LA Galaxy; Escondido, Calif.), Jacori Hayes (Wake Forest; Bowie, Md.), Christopher Lema (New York Red Bulls; Ridgefield, N.J.)
FORWARDS (7): Lynden Gooch (Sunderland; Santa Cruz, Calif.), Piakai Henkel (Unattached; Arcata, Calif.), Alex Muyl (New York Red Bulls; New York, N.Y.), Amando Moreno (New York Red Bulls; Morganville, N.J.), Andrija Novakovich (Chicago Magic PSG; Muskego, Wis.), Rubio Rubin (Unattached; Beaverton, Ore.), Ahinga Selemani (CSA Wolves; Ann Arbor, Mich.)
CARSON, Calif. – Marcelo Sarvas has been a consistent presence for the LA Galaxy in the center of midfield, but on Saturday, he was given a new place to roam—on the left flank.
With Robbie Rogers out due to a right hamstring injury, the Galaxy shuffled the midfield with Pablo Mastroeni taking Sarvas' spot while the Brazilian was pushed wide. Playing along the left side of midfield, Sarvas was a threat going forward in LA's 2-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC as he frequently tucked into the center, which allowed LA to outman and overpower the Whitecaps midfield.
By the end of his 70 minute shift, the stats showed yet another tidy performance for Sarvas who completed 30 of 40 of his passes -- one of them setting up a scoring chance --while also firing off two shots on frame, both of which were stopped by Vancouver goalkeeper Brad Knighton.
"It was just a starting point for me. I played much more inside and I received the ball to my inside," said Sarvas of his stint outwide. "When I had the ball, it was good. Of course if we lost the ball, it was a long run [back field], but it was enjoyable."
The midfielder was eventually removed in the 70th minute of play, but LA head coach Bruce Arena attests that was more about his yellow card situation—he's just one yellow card from a one-game suspension—than his performance.
"We played Marcelo a bit out of position, but I thought that he did a good job," said Arena. "I removed him from the game, simply because I wanted to protect him because of [yellow cards]."
Thoughts on Sarvas' performance out wide? Think that he'll see more time there in the future?

The celebration of the return of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers to the stage for the kickoff of their 2012 Tour was dampened a bit on Thursday with the news of the passing of Levon Helm, the legendary drummer for The Band. But in true Heartbreaker fashion, Tom and the band chose not to mourn Helm but to celebrate the incredible life he lived with a powerhouse set of two-plus hours of music that left the sold-out crowd at the 1st Bank Center in Broomfield, CO cheering for more.
"You Wreck Me" and "Here Comes My Girl" also got everyone dancing and singing along early in the set and just as the final notes of "Handle With Care" rang out (which Tom dedicated, "to all those Wilbury guys, wherever they are traveling tonight"), Tom stepped quietly to the microphone to say a few words about Helm.
"We lost a good friend today, Levon Helm," Tom said. "Levon was one of the greatest human beings that ever was and a friend of everyone in this band. We're gonna play this one for him."
The Best of Everything, the album-closing track off Southern Accents, was an apt choice to honor Helm, but one couldn't help but wonder if the Turkey Scratch, Arkansas native might have enjoyed more the monstrous "Something Big" that followed, a bluesy stomper with a driving rhythm that�s any drummer's dream.

Almost a half century since their inception Safariland continues to bring the finest duty gear to the law enforcement, military, sport shooting and hunting industries. Safariland is well known for their huge selection of holsters - they probably make holsters for more models of firearms than any other holster manufacturer on the planet. After building a custom holster for his father, founder Neale Perkins started a small California-based holster business that quickly grew from producing a few hundred holsters to a few thousand. Today, Safariland Ammunition Pouches, Safariland Belts and Safariland Handcuffs have been added to the vast selection of Safariland Holsters so that law enforcement officials have the best gear to keep them safe and effective. As Safariland produces a wide selection of products designed specifically to meet the needs of individual firearms and situations, if the number of products seems overwhelming feel free to contact us to speak with one of our product specialists, who can help you find exactly what you're looking for.
The Safariland motto is "Together, we save lives™," and with the high quality of their duty gear, it's no wonder why. Safariland Holsters are used by more than 70% of North American law enforcement professionals because they provide a smooth draw and better weapon retention than traditional holsters so the gun is accessible by the police officer and not an assailant. With the high number of different firearm options on the market today and the individual preferences of most shooters, Safariland has developed holsters, belts and pouches for a perfect fit and maximum comfort. Professionals and amateurs alike turn to Safariland for all their duty gear needs.

For me it's Assoluta hands down.
Colonia (original)
Thread: what is the best Acqua di Parma?
i want to get my first one. wanted to know what the consensus is around here.
do you think AdP are quality frags? worth the price?
For me it's Assoluta hands down.
Current top 10 in no particular order : Malle - Carnal Flower (pre 2008) ; Montale - Black Aoud ; Bond #9 - Silver Factory ; Tauer - L'air du désert marocain ; C&Z - No 88 ; Francis K. - APOM ; Creed - Aventus ; Amouage - Epic ; Profumum - Dulcis In Fundo ; Amouage - Opus V
Start with Colonia. It's been around since 1916 - proof that it's a great scent. So refined, so versatile, so perfect for any occasion. You won't ever regret having this in your collection. Bonus points for wearing it in chic resort settings, where it seems to be scent de rigueur. . . all for the better, IMO. . .
Intensa, for me.
My blog: http://scentedpassion.blogspot.com/
Do the Blu Med. ones not count in this discussion? I liked Mirto the best of any I tried....from your list, I would go Colonia
Assoluta all the way!
I am going to be the "Black" sheep (pun intended) and say Essenza.
All are nice implementations of the same theme. Very Euro and classically understated.
Assoluta is the one that takes me somewhere special.
Colonia (original). A solid summer favourite of mine, and the dusky rose note in the drydown is something else.
A couple of years back when I was exploring this house, I tested both the original and intensa versions at the same time (sprays on each hand). The latter completely overwhelmed the former, and I (mistakenly) thought the original was a lightweight. Luckily, I carried on testing the two separately, and found the original more to my liking. Longevity and projection are excellent. This scent make me want to don a white linen shirt, slick my hair, board my (imaginary) yacht and set sail for the Med.
Reviews :: http://www.lemouchoirparfume.blogspot.co.uk :: Reviews
I don't think there is a consensus. Opinion is probably fairly evenly divided among the various products.
I vote for the original Colonia.

Reviews: http://www.basenotes.net/reviews/30
Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder.
My Antaeus can beat up your Armani.
In my book Assoluta is soooo much better than all other together!

Crystal Flacon
I've spent quality time with all four and Colonia is still the only one for me.
Is it / has it been meddled with? I really hope LVMH bean counters or IFRA restrictions don't screw this one up - it would be a real loss if they mess with it. To be honest I think the flankers are pretty redundant - Assoluta is wearable I guess but it has lost the casual breeziness of the original IMO.
P.S. +1 Profumo

Colognia Original for me...is fresh citrus smelling and i like it most of the others!

-- Martin Buber
I like Assoluta, the original Colonia is very nice, but does not work on my skin. I find assoluta a bit more round and with no "powdery" rose. I think the three former ones are on a league of their own as for their elegance and versatitlity, but I didn't make up my mind about Essenza yet...
À l'air libre les oiseaux ont eux aussi le vertige (camille)

To me, both Cologna and Assoluta
Intensa - Last much, much longer than the original and the dry down is a beautiful wood/leather/citrus combo that's great.
by the way, can someone else try going to the Acqua di Parma corporate website and let me know if they are getting a malware security warning? I've tried it in both Safari and Chrome and get the same warning. Strange.
Assoluta, though I really enjoy the original Colonia as well. Haven't tried the others yet.
Been wearing Colonia and Intensa quite regularly, and for now, I'm torn between those 2. Possibly Intensa with an edge over the regular, at this very moment. It really depends on my mood...
Two steps forward. One step back.
Original Colonia.
Here's to hoping they release another modern flanker not so full of synthetic vetiver like Essenza...focusing much more on the exact same citrus/verbena/rose/tonka used in the original.

i like the colonia in the edc form i think am i the only one who feels this way?
Assoluta for me.....I also Love Colonia.....I want to try Essenza!!!
Essenza is getting clobbered. It wasn't that bad...
My fav is Colonia Intensa of the regular line - all the good stuff from the original but a but creamier. Their blu line is pretty incredible too but I like too many if those to name one.
I'm a colognosaurus. Rawr!
+1 for Essenza
Quite like the soapiness from opening
I have recently switched to liking Intensa best.
Essenza--seems to have superior longevity for me too
I've tried all four, own Assoluta and Intensa and like Essenza.
I don't dislike the original Colonia but if I am going to go for a very fresh citrus, I'll wear Trumpers GFT which I think it one of the best of the genre.
In a world where people smell bad, it is the personal responsibility of every Basenoter to improve the world one SotD at a time...
I own and prefer wearing Intensa, but do think that the original Colonia is actually the better scent. Come to think of it, I need to retest it - I may prefer it to Intensa now, given how my tastes have changed.
***For sale:
Iris Pallida 50ml
Ungaro I 75ml
and more! - http://www.basenotes.net/threads/301...n-Man-and-more
OKay so my sample decants of these came today from Perfumed Court (except Essenza, which isn't available yet). First impressions:
Colonia (original): the finest lemon top note I've ever smelled. settles into a soft and beautiful balance of florals and citrus. wow, what a winner. pure Italy.
Assoluta: I was expecting a lot from this after it's top finish in the poll. but I wasn't terribly impressed. It smells a lot like CREED's Aubepine Acacia to me, with a good dose of lavender on top. Clean smelling and neutral.
Intensa: aside from the fact that I'm still questioning if PerfumedCourt accidentally decanted Rose 31 instead of Intensa, I like it. But I swear this smells almost identical to Rose 31 to me. That dirty, spicy rose vibe. I find this to be a little more well rounded, however.
Colonia to many is the benchmark eau de cologne though it is of the more floral and sweeter type. I suspect it no longer uses all natural ingredients though. It is simply citrus (lemon), flowers (verbena, rose, ylang), and musk. It could probably do without the ylang though.
I have owned both Colonia (Original) and Intensa and just purchased Essenza; so far, I would say Intensa but that might change shortly when I try out the Essenza sample I just received today. So I might be changing my post/response here on the fact of trying out the Essenza sample. I hope this helps some?...
I wore Essenza for Thanksgiving today and it smells refined and classy...like all the other Acqua di Parma fragrances.
Personally my two favorites are:
1. Intensa
2. Essenza
Last edited by fragranceluvr; 26th November 2010 at 02:07 AM. Reason: update to question of which is the best Acqua di Parma
At the moment: Intensa. I`ve order Assoluta today (blind), and I`m very excited!
My favorite is Essenza. Longevity and sillage are very weak, however.
I've tried Colonia and Essenza. I prefer the Essenza, really classy and longevity is pretty good on me.
I'm an Assoluta man.
Discover my Guest Reviewer Of The Day here
I really prefer the Assoluta compared to the others
I liked colonia better than assoluta but I've yet to try Intensa
Is the juice worth the squeeze?
Colonia and Intensa for me..
Absolutely *love* the Colonia scent and like Assoluta. Colonia is easily my favorite though.
I tried three scents from AdP and one stood out - something that smelled very powdery (I like powder/dust ). Which one could this be?

Good win
Good win tonight. Was physically challenging. Our guards have to defend better in the future.

Given all of the early-season drama, 3-2 is pretty good.
With purple and pinstripes from days gone by, I trumpet Hugo's name to the NOLA sky. When rebranders and posers abuse their might, beware my power, TEAL LANTERN'S LIGHT!
Charlotte Slobcats All-Time Records (11 Total Seasons)-- 50-win seasons:0, losing seasons:9, playoff series wins:0, division titles: 0, identity theft: 1.
nice game, roberts seems arrived now i guess. and davis was great. anderson was a killer and aminu , damn i love this kid. proud of our team, and now i can go to bed and have sweet dreams. (about future titels and stuff )
Man, Davis was overrated coming out of college
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
To be fair, I don't feel like Gordon's shots were uncontested or badly contested in general. I think was the 1/10 games where it will be beneficial for Gordon to shoot indiscriminately.
Ryan Anderson displayed a lot of versatility tonight. Very excited about him moving forward.
Aminu had a great bounce-back game from the horrendous showing against Philly. Good to see from the young player.
Rivers needs to attack more because good things happen when he does. He just looks timid on the floor, and I'm not used to seeing that from him. Once he gets comfortable, he'll be a good player for us because he is already showing flashes. Needs to work on that shot more though.
Miller looked nice, and he his a few 3s for us.
Lopez had a fantastic game. Totally under the radar, but he did all of the little things, and it shows by his team leading +10 in the +/- category.
Roberts had a nice offensive game, but he missed so many open players it made me sick. Guy could have had like 5 more assists this game, but he was only focused on his own offense. Defense wasn't great either...
Awesome win! Really encouraging for sure.
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
We just don't have any bulldog type of defender who can fight off screens and stay on certain players half the time.
Anderson got going making easier shots in the paint.
Can't give Aminu a pass for the last game. Too many turnovers and settled for bad shots. Responded very well tonight.
Solid win for the Hornets tonight.
Anderson and Davis were absolute monsters.

"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
Still, the team needed to do a better job switching on their guards and didn't make that adjustments until the 3rd quarter.
I'm glad they got this one tonight. The rest of November ain't looking to pleasant, and yet another team with solid guards is next.
Please just come out of this month at or near .500 and I consider that a major success.

During the Revolutionary War... British Gen. Cornwallis was welcomed to the city so... ummm... nicely... that he said it was like being in a "hornets nest"
it stuck
just like LSU being called the "Fighting Tigers"... it's not about the animal (Lord knows tigers are nowhere near indiginous to Louisiana)... it's a name given during wartime that's now handed on to a sports team or something affiliated with the city/state
On Nola.com there were a few Letters to the Editor with people suggesting names. I saw Riverboats, Krewe, Domino, Brass, Flambeaux, Yats, Creoles.
"Times Picayune columnist Jeff Duncan polled his Twitter followers about the proposed name change and wrote that the Pelicans nickname was viewed as a dud. Duncan proposed the name Dukes and according to the Yahoo! report, Brass and Krewe were also considered."
I am not Jeff Duncan and I proposed the Dukes name.
People have become survey-happy these days not really to understand the market but to advertise more. You go to the store, they give you this receipt and there is a small section asking you to fill out a survey. They may offer an incentive like a discount or chance to enter some sweepstakes. In order for you to receive the discount, they want your email, phone number, home address, etc., so they can advertise even more to you. That is the actual marketing they are doing.
Creating a rumor to gauge interest costs $0 to the organization. Rebranding is upwards of $3m.
Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they were using a social media tool to measure positive or negative sentiment on the Pelicans name.
After all these jokes in the past few days, I would deny it too.
Gale Benson better bring her butt back to the drawing board.
Yah sorry but I burst out laughing at the notion that only weak minded leaders go out and ask the consumers what they want and how they feel about certain things.
If a company puts out a product and everyone says it sucks... it sucks.. sorry. Lets face it..if some team...say Orlando or whoever else rebranded to the Pelicans all of you right now would be mocking the name and laughing your asses off just like most people are doing right now to you.
And a parent always gives into wishes of a screamimg child who wants candy for dinner, another iphone, or a.mercedes for their first car.
And about the 'free research': this is not the way to do that. With no structure to the data, it's much less informative compared to a cheap, structured experiment.
Let me guess, those you guys are anti-Pelican, right? But thesr are objective thoughts? If this were your favorite name, you'd be saying it might not stick, well other people don't like it so it must change, etc., right?
There will never be a unanimous decision about anything period...do i think that that the Hornets name is the best..YES...would I have been content with other names such as Krewe, Knights, etc..Heck Yes! It Tom Benson's team so he has the right to do whatever he wants whenever he wants but there is no denying that this a cheesy, childish name that has been universally panned and mocked. The people who like it only like it because it is different than Hornets. Thats it. If that is enough to satisfy them than fine.
But there is no denying one thing...If this was floated out there to get public/consumer opinion than that is great and I hope the team got the message. If this is the name period and they don't care what the consumers think than that is unequivocally bad business. The NBA is an entertainment industry, they still have a product that they must sell to fans. If you think that it is ok to just overstep any and all practical businesses ideals of ensuring consumer satisfaction than that is their right..it doesn't make it right but we have to live with it. But don't tell me that Tom Benson is right for just picking a name and sticking to it and telling the majority of fans to suck it.
If Iphone puts out a product that looks like s*** and everyone complains are they going to tell everyone to suck it up and deal with it? No every single product in every single market field known to man goes through some sort of testing, consumer feedback response, survey, etc etc etc. Seriously, some of the arguments presented here are just mind-bogeeling to me...
I think what bothers me is the people who hate the nickname throwing out the phrase "Everybody hates it." Not everyone hates it. There may be a lot of public backlash, but there is also public defense of the name. I just don't like this sentiment where people feel just because THEY hate it means the hate for it is the only reaction that matters.
I keep preaching perspective. "Pelicans sucks as a name" is not a fact. It is an opinion. One you're allowed to have, but it doesn't mean Gayle needs to "go back to the drawing board."
Flying Snotbubbles reminds me of Flying Spaghetti Monster so i am down as well.
I am a man who wears bright orange shoes all the time, everywhere. (S&WB colored...)
It's almost like you don't read my post when i say I DONT CARE WHAT THEY CALL IT AS LONG AS IT'S WANT BENSON WANTS.
I've only said it about 20 twenty times in the past few days and you keep doubting it....
Luckyman if you are sooooo concerned about the name why didnt you buy the team? Seriously, you could have done whatever your heart desired. :idoh:
I think benson's group has made it clear he cares about New Orleans and the area surrounding. He doesn't care about the random fans outside of the market the team is physically in. So in a sense if you are more than a few hundred miles away or fit one of the other random groups he'll gladly sell you a jersey or whatever but if you don't like it he won't care either way.. In a sense, your opinion doesn't matter. Personally I'm fine with the Pelicans. Most people here I talked to at first hated the name, but after a few days it's starting to grow on people. If you are not from the region, as I see it, you have two options, accept the name and move on, or move on from the organization. Not trying to be disrespectful or anything, you have a right to voice your opinion, just don't act like it's the only opinion.
Reminds me of a philosophy class I took where the class couldn't understand the concept of "Thinking about thinking"....whaaattttt?
Pelicans is a unique name and representative of Louisiana, once we see the logo and uniforms everyone will accept it. Then once they start winning people across the country will love to sport a "Pelicans" jersey because it is so unique and unlike any other name in the NBA.
Don't be afraid of being different and unique, embrace it.
I'm born and raised in the New Orleans area and I don't like the name Pelicans. Not one of my co-workers, friends, family, or patients like the name. So believe me where a person live have no bearing on whether they like the name. I have resigned to the fact that the name has no bearing on whether I support the team.
