  1. When you have ice in your veins and give zero , news like this effects neither your pulse not your blood pressure.
  2. Trade keeps things flexible for the habs. Weber remains a tradable asset after Friday.
  3. The mayor didn't make that recommendation, that was a city consultant, according the the article.
  4. They can void the contract, and they can impose a cap penalty of up to $5M, essentially making it impossible for the leafs to sign him.
  5. If it's true that MLSE facilitated a meeting between a potential sponsor and a UFA during contract negotiations, I can see the league coming down hard on them. Even as far as "you can't sign him, contract void."
  6. In English, his name is Joshua. Jesus is Latin.
  7. The same reason anglophone Christians don't celebrate the life, death, and resurrection of Our Lord and Savior, Joshua.
  8. In Tyson's own words: "I'm very grateful to be a Muslim. Allah doesn't need me, I need Allah." http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2013/12/06/mike-tyson-talks-religon-need-allah.html
  9. But the court ruled, in wade, the the Texas penal code represented legislation that infringed on a constitutional right. So they were, by your definition, checking tyrrany. I would suggest that the disagreement you are describing is possibly more issue based, and less process based, than you think it is.
  10. "usurpation of the will of the people" - Just last post you insisted that it was the role of the court to act as a check against the tyranny of the majority (aka, the will of the people) which is it that you espouse? "The court legislated..." - The court didn't legislate in roe v wade, Texas did, and then in roe v. wade, the supreme court, for the first time analyzed the law that the Texas Legislature had created (Article 1193 of the Texas Penal Code) and declared that this was an unconstitutional breach of a woman's rights. Related followup- How do you feel about the court's decisions on Obamacare?
  11. No risk there, if he goes out on LTIR, he will not count against the cap. See: Pronger, Chris.
  12. Yesterday, the court checked the legislative majority tyranny in Texas regarding abortion. This Court did exactly what you are asking them to do.
  13. Imagine the following story, had SCOTUS ruled a lower standard under federal anti-corruption statutes: Eleven runs for mayor of Buffalo and is elected. I take Eleven out to a celebratory dinner, give him a gavel with a Sabres' Emblem on it for his office. Eleven offers some tax incentives to revitalize more of the city, my wife's company get's hired to do marketing for one of the companies that moves into a newly renovated building. One of her competitors see's that Eleven's sweet gavel smells like whiskey and tears, a dead giveaway that it came from me. William J. Hochul, Jr. has been replaced as U.S. Attorney for the Western District of NY by someone far less awesome who didn't graduate from Notre Dame. This young, over-ambitious, grade-A DB (probably a Michigan Alumnus) decides to make a name for himself by prosecuting the Mayor of New York's second largest city. Eleven goes to prison. Side Note: Skelos and Silver may have there convictions overturned as a result of this ruling as well.
  14. The interviewer asked him about makarov's comments: https://tipofthetower.com/2016/06/07/buffalo-sabres-is-andrey-makarovs-anti-russian-bias-claim-justified/
  15. February and March have the lowest combined rates of murder/robbery/rape.
  16. I am going to move into this new house, but before I do, I'd like to hit the foundation with a sledgehammer a couple times. I agree the 8 vs 7 years thing as a reason to do this, but I'm still skeptical that it will come to be a thing.
  17. No way we're paying foligno 2.5M to play on the fourth line.
  18. He's already in the division, so him landing in the Atlantic would just be status quo, right?
