¿Qué usos podemos dar a cada red social aplicados a la salud? Interesante gráfico con las ventajas y desventajas de cada una
Marie Ennis-O'Connor's curator insight, December 7, 2013 5:30 PM
This study recommends that future health marketing interventions promoting physical activity should segment Twitter users based on their number of followers, followings, and gaps between the number of followers and followings. The innovative application of both marketing and public health theory to examine tweets about physical activity could be extended to other infodemiology or infoveillance studies on other health behaviors (eg, vaccinations).

HYDERABAD: A diploma student died by hanging in her room at Chaitanyapuri on Sunday after her parents allegedly admonished her for failing in two subjects.
Police said Sheetal, 18, hailing from Nanded in Maharashtra, was pursuing diploma in Special Education (D.Ed) at Thakur Hari Prasad Institute for Mentally Retarded Persons at V.V. Nagar in Chaitanyapuri. She was staying in a rented house along with two other girls. She called up her parents on Saturday requesting them to send money for repaying the money she had borrowed from her friend.
But they rebuked her for spending money carelessly and poor performance in studies. Since then Sheetal was in a state of depression. On Sunday morning, she was not responding to her friends' calls when they repeatedly knocked the door after returning from a temple.
Sensing something suspicious, they peeped through the window and found her hanging with a 'chunni.' With the help of neighbours, they broke open the door and rushed Sheetal to a nearby hospital where she was declared brought dead.

Rondo leads Celtics to 101-95 win over Bulls
Boozer finished with 15 points, but didn't play in the fourth quarter.
NOTES: Chicago played without starting point guard Kirk Hinrich, who sat out with a strained right hip. Hinrich suffered the injury in Saturday's win over Minnesota and is considered day to day. Robinson started in his place. ... Boston coach Doc Rivers called the news that the rival Los Angeles Lakers had hired Mike D'Antoni as their new coach "very interesting" and added that "I hope they don't do too well." . In what has become an annual ritual, the Bulls will play their next five games on the road over the next two weeks while a circus occupies the United Center.

Viewing All
I reviewed these shoes in May 2014. I had only worn them a few times when I noticed the lining on the top inside edge of the right shoe had worn through. And just recently, I started to develop a blister on my right heel after I had run 8 miles. When I inspected my right shoe, the lining had developed a hole in the heel area. I have only worn them for about 100 hundred miles. I'm very disappointed. I thought I had found my new favorite running shoe. These shoes truly aren't worth $125 (maybe $25). Scarpa needs to redesign these shoes with a more durable lining. Not a good purchase.
I always have trouble finding running shoes that actually fit my feet. These are the best fitting shoes I've found in a long time. I usually wear a 7 or 7 1/2 in running shoes and often times find that I'm in between these 2 sizes (7 is too small & 7 1/2 is too big). I purchased a 7 in these shoes and its a good fit. I've worn them 4 times now on a combination of pavement and trails. These shoes don't require any break-in time; I ran 6 miles on my first run and didn't get any blisters. My longest run in them, so far, has been 12 miles and I didn't have any issues. I can't comment on drainage or durability. Overall, the Ignite is a good shoe for smooth trails and some pavement. (I don't think the Ignite would be supportive or durable enough for technical trails in rugged terrain.)

Communication workshops are not something most teachers look forward to. But Anna University hopes things will be different this time.
As a precursor to its communication workshop to be held in January 2013, the English department of Anna University has conducted several awareness programmes for teachers.
Officials hope this will improve participation and help them realise the significance of training programmes.
The workshop is part of the University's efforts to garner recognition from the National Board of Accreditation (NBA), which proposes to introduce Outcome-Based Education (OBE) system in Indian institutions on a par with the Washington Accord, an international accreditation agreement for professional education.
The Washington Accord, set up in 1989, recognizes programmes accredited by countries which are its signatories. Graduates of accredited programmes in any of the signatory countries are recognized by other signatory countries as having met the requirements to practise engineering.
Besides hosting an international conference in March 2013, the University will conduct a series of lectures in English speaking and communication skills for its teachers.
"Many colleges refuse to send teachers to workshops saying they can't afford to let them off for a week. But there are also some quality conscious institutions that send the same teachers repeatedly. This time, we have restricted admission to just one teacher from each college to ensure participation from all institutions," said S.P. Dhanavel, head, department of English, Anna University.
The focus of the communication workshop is to ensure that the sessions, beginning in January, are not theory based. "For instance, the student should be able to communicate effectively, make presentations and articulate his opinions at least for three minutes. The point of outcome based education is to be able to measure skills, and we are devising specifications for that," said Prof. Dhanavel.
The teachers will be trained in fourteen areas that include listening, speaking, interpersonal skills and presentation-making among others.
"We will begin with faculty members who teach third-year students as that is the time when preparations for campus interviews begin," said Prof. Dhanavel.
The effort in this conference is to grapple with the ideas and concepts underlying OBE particularly with reference to teaching and learning of English and communication skills and to come up with ideas on how to make English language learning outcome based and effective.

Publisher's Description
Now available as a novel based on the screenplay written by Kieth Merrill, this story is destined to become a classic for young readers during the holiday season.
The film centers around 12-year-old Emma O'Connor as she is sent to live with her "aunt" in the small town of Doverville. Emma soon finds herself in the middle of a "dog-fight" with the mayor and town dogcatcher. In order to strike down their "no-dogs" law, Emma must bring together a group of schoolmates, grown-ups, and adorable dogs of all shapes and sizes in a spectacular holiday pageant. The 12 Dogs of Christmas is a fun, heartwarming story, featuring a diverse canine cast and is perfect for all those who love dogs, kids, and Christmas.
The 12 Dogs of Christmas was first introduced as a picture book and board book with companion CD written by then 8-year-old, Emma Kragen. Now with over 500,000 books sold, the story has been expanded into a feature-length film.
"Leiva recounts the story in a very crisp, snappy style of prose which is full of humor and warmth...it's on it's way to becoming a Christmas standard."
Stuart Nulman "Bookbanter" on CJAD, Montreal

Although Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly still has a ways to go in his treatment for sinus cancer, he'll at least get to spend Easter with his family.
Kelly's brother, Dan, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that as long as there are no setbacks, Kelly plans to travel home to suburban Buffalo on Friday and return to New York City, where he's receiving treatment at the Lenox Hill Hospital, on Sunday.
"He's doing pretty good," Dan Kelly said. "We anticipate Jim coming home for this weekend. He's put together a couple of good days in a row."
Kelly underwent surgery in Buffalo last June to remove cancerous cells from his upper jaw, but tests done in March revealed the cancer had returned. He began chemotherapy April 8 and has two more sessions scheduled. Kelly also has radiation treatment five days per week.
"It's a humbling experience, and it makes you feel good when so many people are out there praying for you," Kelly said in an interview with ESPN New York earlier this month. "Just keep praying for me. I am going to need them."

Bonneville Dam and in Astoria, Oregon
Sea Lions Need Guardians!
Bonneville Dam and in Astoria, Oregon
The Miami Seaquarium has recently been purchased by a California-based amusement park company called Palace Entertainment. Among its many captive animals is the orca Lolita. This is a great opportunity to demand that she be released back into the waters of her birth, something Seaquarium's present owners have always refused to do.
Lolita has lived at the Miami Seaquarium for almost 45 years, in the smallest orca tank on the entire continent (35′ x 80′ x 20′ deep — although she herself is 20′ long). For the first 10 years of her captivity she had a male companion, Hugo, who apparently committed suicide in 1980 by repeatedly bashing his head against the tank walls. Now she lives a solitary life, forced to perform in depressing daily shows for the public.
She was caught in 1970 in Puget Sound, taken from the L pod of the Southern Resident orca community in an 80-whale ….what? roundup? theft? kidnapping? Her mother and extended family still live there. Marine mammal experts have proposed a plan in which Lolita would be transferred to a coastal sea pen, and once she relearns the skills necessary for independent survival, she would rejoin her family in the wild.
Please, contact Palace Entertainment and ask for her release:
Fernando Eiroa, President and CEO
Palace Entertainment
4590 MacArthur Blvd., Suite 400
Newport Beach, CA 92660
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com (cc: firstname.lastname@example.com,firstname.lastname@example.com)
Online comment form.
Sample text (it's best to use your own words):
"I am writing in response to the recent announcement that Palace Entertainment has signed an agreement to purchase the Miami Seaquarium. I'm sure you are aware of the controversy surrounding Lolita, an orca at the Miami Seaquarium who for decades has lived in a small concrete tank, without the company of another orca. I urge Palace Entertainment to allow Lolita to be rehabilitated and released into her native waters. Such a decision would bring tremendous positive publicity to your company!"
Also contact Miami-Dade County's Mayor and Commissioners and ask that, as a condition of the sale of the Miami Seaquarium to Palace Entertainment, that Lolita be released back into the waters of her birth. Contact:
Mayor Carlos Gimenez and Commissioners
Stephen P. Clark Government Center
111 NW 1st Street, Suite 220

One of our members, Shelby, has brought to our attention a goose family in need of help. Mom is incubating eggs in a nest on a retaining wall outside Macy's at Southcenter Mall in Tukwila, and Dad patrols the parking lot area below (apparently the family has chosen this ill-advised nesting site before!). Shoppers, both on foot and in cars, do not expect geese and will not be watching out for them (let's be real: even if they did, would they?). Mall security doesn't seem to care. They WILL care, however, if you all call to show them that a single goose family is important to you. Their number is 206-246-7400, press 5 for mall security. All we are asking is that a small area, 3 parking spaces, be cordoned off to protect this family from cars and people. You might also mention that messing with nesting geese is illegal, and that geese are excellent parents who may very well be aggressive towards people who come too close, so that creating a barrier between people and geese would be a good idea all round.
And thank you Shelby — a great example of NOT WALKING ON BY.
In Georgia, a bill is under review which would permit the use of live raccoons for field trial competitions. Time is running out — the bill, HB423, has already been approved by the State House and has now gone to the Natural Resources Committee, where it could be discussed any day. Please help stop this Bill – if passed, hunters will be allowed to train their dogs using caged live raccoons. Every minute in confinement is already a terrifying eternity for them. In addition, they are flung high into trees or hauled across fields and bodies of water as frantic dogs give chase. They must repeatedly endure this hellish ordeal, often for hours on end, and many are badly injured or killed during the trials. Survivors risk developing chronic and contagious stress-induced disorders, which are also often fatal.

The FWS has also proposed removing protections for wolves in the rest of the lower 48 states, which would lead to even more killing. Thanks to feedback from nearly A MILLION citizens and a host of conservation biologists, the FWS recently convened a new panel of experts to revisit the issue. This new panel found that the FWS relied upon ONE SINGLE — faulty — paper in deciding to remove federal protections from wolves.
A new comment period is open and the FWS needs to hear from you before March 27. After a previous such comment period in Michigan, 10,000 pro-wolf comments were deliberately deleted; we trust that this will not happen with the Secretary of the Interior, Sally Jewell. (Sample letter/email below, but personalizing it is always a good idea!)
Dear Secretary Jewell,
I value wolves and I want to see them protected by the Endangered Species Act. Without these federal safeguards, wolves are pitted against an unfair arsenal of traps, snares, baits, hounds, and shooters who kill them from low-flying aircraft. Killing wolves puts their family packs in disarray and leaves young pups to starve.
Most Americans love wolves, and wolf-watching tourists spend millions of dollars to see them in places like Yellowstone National Park. After receiving pressure from the livestock industry and extreme groups, the government has given up on wolves and literally put them in the crosshairs before they could recover to most of their historic range. It's quite simple: wolf populations are still recovering, and the best available science does not support their removal from the protections afforded to them by the Endangered Species Act. Please provide adequate protections for this iconic and beautiful species.

Your action can save a lot of lives. And a lot of suffering. Wolves are seldom killed instantly with a single clean shot. Remember hunters who shoot anything that moves; remember bowhunters and traps. Please give up 15 minutes for this. Don't put it off.
This week, we desperately need every U.S. citizen to call and send a letter to both of your US Senators to help protect wildlife and public lands from those who enjoy killing wild animals including hunters, anglers, and trappers.
Two bills, the Bipartisan Sportsmen's Act of 2014 (S. 1996) and the Sportsmen's Act (S. 1335), are currently pending in the Senate, while the latter has already passed the House.
The goal of this package of bills, collectively called SHARE (Sportsmen's Heritage and Recreation Act), is to further "sportsmen's" interests — although we know that in fact there is nothing sporting about killing other for FUN. The bills have provisions that, if passed, would open more federal land to hunting, fishing, and trapping, allow the importation of polar bear "trophies" from Canada, interfere with the Toxic Substances Control Act and allow hunting in National Parks.
You can look up your US Senators here
Sample letter: I urge you to vote against S.1996 the Bipartisan Sportsmen's bill, S.1335 and all related bills.
The overall goal of these bills is to further the interests of "sportsmen," a minority compared to the overwhelming majority of the public who do not hunt, fish, or trap. Furthermore, these bills, if passed, would undermine provisions of existing conservation statutes, including the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Toxic Substances Control Act. These bills would interfere with the exercise of authority by federal agencies responsible for managing federal lands and protecting public health.
By favoring the interests of a minority against those of the majority of the taxpaying public, who use public lands for nonviolent and peaceful enjoyment, these bills seek to take control of wildlife and public lands away from federal agencies and the public and hand it over to hunters, anglers, and trappers. This will not be tolerated by the majority of the public who use these lands, and who finance the protection and maintenance of them through our tax dollars.
I am strongly opposed to S. 1996, S. 1335 and all related Sportsmen's bills, and I urge you to vote on my behalf against these bills, which would compromise existing protections for wildlife, public lands, and public health.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOUR letter may be the one that tips the scales!
Every minute, every single call, counts! Idahos's terrible ag-gag bill is on the way to the governor's desk.
PLEASE email and call the office of Idaho's Governor C.L. "Butch" Otter… Let him know the whole country is watching regarding Idaho's ag-gag bill. Tell him, politely, that no state should affirmatively support animal abuse or make it a crime to report animal abuse — we need to move in the opposite direction, and support compassionate and humane farming and freedom of speech (First Amendment of the Constitution). Crimes should be seen and punished, not hidden and enabled.
I realize many of us do not believe in compassionate and/or humane farming, and most of us want NO slavery rather than just better CONDITIONS, but because a big argument being used in support of this bill is that its opponents want to see animal agriculture eliminated entirely, IT IS CRITICAL THAT ALL CALLS APPEAR TO COME FROM RESPECTABLE CITIZENS WHO "SUPPORT HUMANE FARMING AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH". For a better understanding and more information on what transpired at the Idaho House Agriculture Affairs Committee hearings, see
Email contact and phone information for the governor is (all three would be great!):

– so we can do it again! The massive response recently to the donkey basketball "fundraiser" at the Anacortes Middle School not only meant that the school pledged never to use this form of raising money again, but also had the planned game cancelled at the last minute (the school insisted it received threatening phone calls, which sounds like a last-ditch attempt to save face and discredit activists).
This time it is Clarkston High School in Clarkston, WA, that is hosting a donkey basketball event to raise money for the senior class on February 26th, 2014 at 7PM. Take 5 minutes to write an email to the folks below, asking them to cancel this event. During these supposedly 'fun' events, donkeys are forced to carry heavy loads, and are often dragged, jerked, kicked, hit and yelled at. For the sake of both animals and the adults these students later become, fundraising events should promote and showcase kindness, not cruelty.

Это ужасно слышать что в Сочи бездомных собак, жизнь которых и без того тяжела, отлавливают и убивают. Это позорное поведение не соответствует попыткам России преподнести себя в роли прогрессивной страны. Кроме того, это совершенно не поможет разрешить проблему бездомных собак. Единственый цивилизованный способ решить эту проблему в России – это внедрить широкомасштабную программу стерилизации, которая бы предотвратила рождение новых щенков. Прошу Вас сделать все необходимое, чтобы остановить бойню собак в Сочи, которая придает кровавый оттенок Олимпиаде, отнимая жизнь у тысяч невинных животных.
Please call and e-mail the following officials and forward this alert widely!

I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it, but you can't just state that it's not a proper film like that's a fact, when there's no such thing as a 'proper film' except that they're all recorded on camera! Musicals are quite often sung-through, I really find it hard to understand why people are so surprised at the amount of singing! It's easy to find out from a quick google search that that what you're going to watch is entirely sung.
I personally wouldn't go to the cinema without finding out a little bit about what I'm seeing, but I guess that's personal preference as well!

|Report: Patrice Bergeron suffered spleen injury in Game 5
|06.23.13 at 6:01 am ET
CHICAGO — Patrice Bergeron left Saturday night's Game 5 in Chicago with a spleen injury, according to a report from Sportnet's Nick Kypreos. Bergeron suffered a hit during a 4-on-4 late in the first period, played two shifts and did not return. He was spotted leaving the United Center in an ambulance, sitting up and conscious. Kypreos said a source indicated to him that Bergeron was dealing with a possible spleen injury.
A source told me #Bruins Bergeron may have suffered a spleen injury. Team reported he was taken by ambulance for observation at nearby hosp
— Nick Kypreos (@RealKyper) June 23, 2013
Bergeron leads the Bruins with four goals in the Stanley Cup finals series and has nine goals and six assists in 21 games in the playoffs.
|Jonathan Toews knocked out of Game 5 by Johnny Boychuk
|at 5:42 am ET
CHICAGO — The NHL may be looking into discipline against Johnny Boyhuck for his second period hit on Jonathan Toews that knocked out the Blackhawks captain out of the third period of Game 5 Saturday night.
Toews played the rest of the second period and was on the bench for the third period but did not play in the final 20 minutes. Chicago coach Joel Quennville said Toews was "day-to-day" with an upper-body injury.
The Department of Player Safety reviews every hit, so league officer Brendan Shanahan, who was in attendance in the press box, will no doubt take a look.
Rick Nash hit Tomas Kopecky with a similar shot in March and was not disciplined. Given Boychuk's reputation for delivering hard but clean hits, it's likely Boychuk will be exonerated and will be on the ice for Game 6 at TD Garden Monday night.
|Claude Julien on Patrice Bergeron: 'He may be in the next game'
|06.22.13 at 11:58 pm ET
CHICAGO — Claude Julien was a frustrated head coach Saturday night after he lost Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals to the Blackhawks at United Center, 3-1, and in the process lost his best all-around player to an undisclosed injury.
Pressed about the nature of the injury suffered by Patrice Bergeron and his prognosis, Julien tried to be as clear as he could before losing some patience.
"Well, no update, and I think there's no concern until you get an update," Julien said. "As far as we're concerned, he's just getting evaluated
right now. Not much I can say on his situation."
Asked what happened, Julien said he was not at liberty to say.
"No, not really," Julien said. "It's just an injury that wasn't able to let him finish the game. He may be in next game. I'm not going there.
When asked if this was an existing injury that was aggravated, Julien reached his boiling point.
"Guys, I'm not going there, so anything else but injury here. I'll update you when I have an update. There's nothing more. We can ask a million questions. I don't have any more information than probably you guys do right now."
Carl Soderberg, tabbed to take Kaspars Daugavins spot on the fourth line, found himself centering the No. 2 line when Bergeron went out early in the second period.
"I thought we could use him, and although he had very limited experience in this league, he's still a pretty skilled player and had a good year. I thought if we were going to give him a shot, tonight was probably a good time for it. He showed me enough to be able to move into Bergy's spot. I thought he played well, and although there wasn't maybe the chemistry that you see with that line usually because it's his first time, certainly not disappointed in the way he played tonight."
|Patrice Bergeron leaves Game 5 in ambulance
|at 10:31 pm ET
CHICAGO — Patrice Bergeron was taken from the United Center in the middle of Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals Saturday night via ambulance and transported to a local hospital, first reported by WCVB's Mike Lynch and later confirmed by the Bruins.
Bergeron appeared to take a hit late in the first period during a 4-on-4 situation on the ice but he did return to play a limited amount in the second period. He came out after just two shifts in the second and did not return. He was not on the Bruins bench to begin the third period.
Carl Soderberg took Bergeron's place on the second line, centering Brad Marchand and Jaromir Jagr.
The Bruins confirmed the report but did not announce details of the injury.
Bergeron being taken to an ambulance in United Center
— Mike Lynch (@LynchieWCVB) June 23, 2013
CHICAGO — Maybe it was as innocent as Claude Julien showing his game face but when he was asked why he would bench Kaspars Daugavins and consider inserting Carl Soderberg into the lineup for his first playoff game in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals, he defended his turf in no uncertain terms.
"Why? Because I'm the coach and because I can," Julien began. "You guys ask me why I make those changes. I didn't spend three days thinking about that. It's a situation that I can do. If I do that tonight, we'll see where it goes. I may just go back to Daugavins, because again I'm tinkering between those two like I have from the beginning of the series."
Julien admitted that he has only seen him play in six games toward the end of the season with the Bruins, which might factor into whether he plays in Game 5.
"Well, I haven't seen him that much," Julien said. "He's only played a few games, and that's probably the main reason he hasn't played in the Playoffs is we went with some experienced players. Injuries have forced us to kind of look elsewhere, and that's the injury to Gregory Campbell. So Daugavins, we've looked at Carl Soderberg, Jordan Caron, and there's Jay Pandolfo. So there's situations there that we can look at. We're trying to find the best fit possible.
"I have to look at whether I feel comfortable staying with Daugavins, or as you know right now, it's been between Soderberg and Daugavins. But they're two different players. Size-wise they're different. One is obviously real gritty along the walls, and the other one is probably more of a play maker. So, there's a difference there, and that's where I have to make my decision what I feel I may need for tonight."
CHICAGO — Bruins coach Claude Julien was very aware of the comments by Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews after Game 4. In the hours before Game 5 here Saturday, Julien said if Chicago thinks they can attack and expose Zdeno Chara, then go for it.
"I mean, they're allowed their comments," Julien said. "If that's what they think, then they should try it again. A lot of people have tried to figure out Zdeno, and he's the type of player he is. People talk about five goals against, but were they all his fault? None of them were his fault, actually.
Chara was a minus-3 on Wednesday night in Game 4 and was on the ice for five of the six Chicago goals, leading several Blackhawks – including Toews – to say they had success by not being intimidated by the 6-foot-9 36-year-old Bruins captain.
Julien said stats don't mean nearly as much in the eyes of his coaching staff as the presence Chara provides on the ice.
"Just one of those situations where we feel he's one of our best players on our team," Julien said. "He's one of the best defensemen in the league, so I don't think there's too many flaws in his game. But if they want to think that way, they're entitled to it. I have no response to that except to know that my player is going to be good and ready tonight, and they can try it again if that's what they think."
|No Marian Hossa again for Hawks morning skate
|at 12:11 pm ET
CHICAGO — As was the case before Game 4, Marian Hossa was not on the ice for Chicago's morning skate here at United Center in the hours before Game 5 of the Stanley Cup.
Hossa did not skate on Wednesday morning in Boston but returned to the lineup for Game 4 after missing Game 3 with an upper body injury. Hossa had one assist in 29 shifts Wednesday night, taking just four shots after 10 in Game 2.
And as was the case in Game 4, Chicago coach Joel Quenneville said Hossa will be available and will play. "He will play and we expect him to be better," Quenneville said.
The extra forwards taking part in Saturday's morning skate for Chicago were Ben Smith, the Boston College product who took Hossa's place in Game 3, and agitator Dan Carcillo.
The series is tied, 2-2, heading into Saturday night's Game 5.

Arizona Coyotes
Analyst: Daniel Briere would be a good fit with the Phoenix Coyotes
As it stands heading into Sunday's action, the Phoenix Coyotes are tied for sixth place in the Western Conference with 23 points. However with a condensed 48-game schedule, 11 teams currently seeded No. 3 through No. 14 are within eight points of each other.
While the Coyotes have not struggled to score the puck in 2013 (2.9 goals per game), the team has not quite with the same level of consistency it did a season ago when it reached the Western Conference Finals.
General manager Don Maloney has not been shy over the past year when it comes to adding centers (Antoine Vermette and Matthew Lombardi) who can push the puck and create chances at the offensive end of the ice, yet the Coyotes could certainly still use an extra piece or two as they look to make their fourth straight trip to the postseason.
Former NHL veteran and current Rogers Sportsnet analyst Brad May recently suggested that a certain top-line center would be a perfect fit for Maloney and Co. before the league's April 3 trade deadline.
That center would be former Coyote Daniel Briere.
Briere is still under contract with the Philadelphia Flyers until the end of the 2014-15 season and even said this week he had no desire to waive his no-trade clause. Still the 35-year-old is a potent playmaker with more than 800 games and 650 career points to his name.
The Quebec native was originally drafted by Phoenix in 1996 and played parts of five seasons with the Coyotes. While he recorded 53 goals and 47 assists during his time in Phoenix, Briere didn't reach his All-Star potential until stops in Buffalo and Philadelphia.
It's an intriguing thought nonetheless, and one fans in the Valley would likely welcome with open arms.

SEATTLE -- Bus riders packed the King County Council chambers Tuesday night, concerned and angry over drastic proposed cuts to Metro Transit.
Cuts are required to overcome a $60 million deficit. Under the proposed reductions, several routes would be canceled and scaled back. To see the complete list of proposed route cuts, click here to visit Metro's website.
According to Metro, the gap is so large that 600,000 hours of annual bus service over the next two years would have to go -- the equivalent of cutting all weekend transit service or all weekday commuter service.
The King County Executive Dow Constantine has proposed a temporary $20 car licensing fee, called a Congestion Reduction Charge. If approved by the King County Council, it would help close the deficit over two years. The council needs just 6 votes to pass the fee without a ballot measure, and a simple majority of 5 votes to put it on a ballot.
Councilmember Reagan Dunn opposes the fee, saying Metro must live within its means.
A student group at the University ofWashington, ASUW, recently came out in support of the $20 Congestion Reduction Charge, saying it would help save Metro routes, which thousands of UW students rely on.
Another measure they will vote on would reduce Metro by 100,000 hours beginning in February 2012.
Another similar meeting will be held at the Burien City Council Chambers on July 21.

The rate of interest at which banks borrow funds from other banks, in marketable size, in the London interbank market.

Commodity trading and risk management is a subject that is necessarily complicated, and is becoming more so. The Energy Risk Glossary seeks to disentangle and clarify the jargon by providing definitions of commonly used energy and commodity market terms.
These include definitions related to a variety of underlying energy products, as well as technical terms about the many instruments and benchmarks used by energy market participants.
Many of the most recent terms to have been added to our glossary stem from the actions of regulators since the 2008 global financial crisis. The onset of rules, such as the US Dodd-Frank Act and European Market Infrastructure Regulation, has markedly increased the cost and complexity associated with commodity trading. Perhaps they have also increased the need for a handy reference guide such as this.
The glossary is extensively cross-referenced, making for easy and thorough searches. We hope you find the latest edition of the Energy Risk Glossary to be a useful resource.
