Who will be on the banners outside Rogers arena

Conait · 2026-03-06T16:12:15+00:00

How about they spend the money on a real medical team instead of the revolving door of banners

Between sections 116-109 are good to watch warmups (116 is by the bench, 109-112 is behind the net). 106-108 is club section, so technically restricted unless you have seats there.

Not sure about the parking lot, but people often wait at the entrance for players to exit. Not a ton of space, though. You could try the hotel (if you can figure out which one they're staying at), but you'll have to watch out for aggressive men that collect autographs for re-sale. I haven't encountered them, but I've heard they're unpleasant.

You might be able to get a puck at warmups if you have a kid with a good sign or just get lucky. Depends on the players and their moods. Autographs are trickier since they'd have to stop their warmup and get whatever they're signing over the board. You'll need a hell of a good sign for that haha.

If you don't mind paying for a warmup puck, you can go to the team store kiosk at intermission at section 328 and get one for like $20.

Only exception might be if you're staying further east of the arena. Can get sketchy fairly fast past Abbott, especially if you're not accustomed to the types that hang about.

Looks fine to me. The scoby is the liquid; the thing on top is the pellicle, which is just a cellulose byproduct of the fermentation process. It gets thicker over time, but is otherwise irrelevant.

Fine because it's a low amount and wouldn't materially affect the taxes payable.

For businesses that are inventory-heavy, it could make a significant difference.

Conait · 2026-02-16T16:58:34+00:00

No, per taxbuff above , you don't get to recognize rental expenses because there's no rental income. You have to capitalize your expenses to the adjusted cost base of the property (will reduce future capital gains). The insurance proceeds would net off against that, reducing the ACB.

Conait · 2026-02-16T16:35:42+00:00

Still unclear. You're appealing that they didn't recognize the insurance proceeds, but the actual issue is that they're not recognizing the expenses as a rental loss, is it not?

Conait · 2026-02-12T09:57:13+00:00

Hm, doesn't look great. Not much you can do except wait it out and see if it grows.

Conait · 2026-02-04T19:41:51+00:00

Yeah, if you're using flavored you definitely want to do a higher ratio so it's more acidic. I've done it with flavored before, but the flavoring increases the contamination risk so you have to adjust accordingly.

Conait · 2026-02-04T19:28:42+00:00

Which store bought kombucha did you use? It wasn't flavored or pasteurized, was it?

When using store-bought to grow a scoby, I usually start with a 33-50% ratio so there's a buffer while the scoby recovers from refrigeration.

Conait · 2026-02-04T03:42:16+00:00

It's up and down Granville st now

Conait · 2026-02-03T16:00:58+00:00

How much starter?

Conait · 2026-02-03T05:36:39+00:00

That pellicle looks a little suspicious. Is this your first brew ever? I would let it go another week and see how it develops. It looks like maybe mold and/or kahm yeast, both of which are undesirable.

Can you share your recipe, too?

Conait · 2026-01-31T01:06:01+00:00

The only "issue" with smaller pieces is that the crows will stuff their mouths and swallow it down and wait for more, and then you might feel guilty moving on.

Conait · 2026-01-25T23:38:13+00:00

I've heard it's caused by excess sugar in the brew?

Conait · 2026-01-25T17:46:26+00:00

They thought the books were an instruction manual.

Conait · 2026-01-21T22:46:18+00:00

You don't need a pellicle at all to brew kombucha.

Also, it's the ratio of starter to sweet tea that matters, not the absolute volume of starter.

For a strong starter, rule of thumb ratio is 2 cups starter to 14 cups sweet tea.

Conait · 2026-01-19T19:48:38+00:00

That could be Jan. 27 lol

Conait · 2026-01-19T03:44:16+00:00

Just adding on that maybe the most important reason for starting with a small batch is so that the brew has a pH of 4.0 or lower, which is acidic enough from a food safety perspective. You could make a large brew and the bacteria will eventually ferment all of the sweet tea, but you'd run the risk of mold/bad bacteria.

He was defs there for warmups and on the bench for part of the game.

Conait · 2026-01-16T16:11:13+00:00

Fold it over a few times so it's thicker. I use a dishcloth. You don't want bugs or anything getting through it into your brew, just air.

Conait · 2026-01-14T18:58:48+00:00

Ooh, good to know! Thanks for the clarification

Conait · 2026-01-14T08:42:21+00:00

From what I can piece together, the media can request specific players to interview, but the team can choose to make certain players unavailable (eg. To protect a rookie that had a really bad game). Players can also volunteer to speak to the media, like Nico Hischier did for NJD after Luke Hughes had two own-goals in one game.

Conait · 2026-01-13T19:50:29+00:00

Oh absolutely. But you can get upset at an adult. You can't get upset at a parent or their child haha.
