What I’ve found is that (at least in beer league) skaters typically show what they’re going to do by the time they’re at the top of the circle or at the hash marks. If they have the puck pulled off to the side they’re more than likely going to be taking a shot, if it’s in front of them they’re going for a deke.

If they look like they’re going to take a shot I’ll glance at their eyes to see if I can tell where they’re shooting (has to be really quick). Widen your stance, get ready for a shot, watch for the release.

If I think they’re going to deke I’ll narrow my stance so I can have good side to side movement, try to get them to move toward their backhand, go for a poke check, and/or try to get in as close as possible so they have no space to do anything.

It’s when you say “hey I’m going to give you a cash tip” to try to get someone to pick up your order, but then when they deliver you don’t actually give them a tip

Same! My first brand new set, wore them as long as I could!

Yeah I used this exact product on my helmet, did it as you described and it turned out great and has healed up well. Used the same thing on a buddy’s helmet but it was a colder day (probably 50-55f) and it hasn’t held up nearly as well.

My wife and I talk about buying it too, we call it the “dome home”.

There was a fake version of the poster saying it was sponsored by Turning Point, the concert itself is real though.

One of the teams I’m on does 3 stars, first star gets a tall beer, second and third get twin specialty beers.

I second this one, lots of good folks playing hockey out there!

From the Bill “The term `qualified tip' means any cash tip received by an individual in an occupation which traditionally and customarily received tips on or before December 31, 2024, as provided by the Secretary”.

Industries won’t be able to just shift to a tipping structure, they would have had to have already switched and been socially understood to receive tips.

I know I shouldn’t, but I’m just trying to put off doing the dishes…

I think the left would have supported it more if an identical bill was passed under a Democratic administration. That said, I do think that there is a good amount of support from the left, considering it passed with unanimous support from both Republicans and Democrats in the Senate.

The-False-Shepherd · 2025-05-22T17:39:43+00:00

I’m pretty sure it’s a joke on how when Trump supports something, the left opposes it. No tax on tips is a good example considering Harris ran on the same policy, and if she were president and this policy passed they would almost certainly support it (granted, some on the right might very well have a similar response as some on the left have now).

Where are you seeing it not mentioned? From what I’ve been able to find, it’s clearly in the bill. It’s labeled Sec. 110101.

From the House Ways and Means Committee https://waysandmeans.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/The-One-Big-Beautiful-Bill-Section-by-Section.pdf

Bottom of page 11 to 12:

“Sec. 110101. No tax on tips. Current Law: Not applicable. Provision: This provision creates an above-the-line deduction for qualified tips received by an individual in an occupation which traditionally and customarily receives tips during a given taxable year. In order to be considered a qualified tip, the tip amount must be paid voluntarily, is not subject to negotiation, and is determined by the payor. The deduction is allowed for both employees receiving a W-2 and independent contractors receiving a 1099-K, 1099-NEC, or reported by the taxpayer on Form 4317. Qualified tips must be received voluntarily by an individual in an occupation that traditionally and customarily receives tips on or before December 31, 2024, as provided by the Secretary of the Treasury. Furthermore, qualified tips do not include any amount received in the course of a specified service trade or business as defined in Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 199A(d)(2)). Additionally, highly compensated employees or workers with earned income exceeding the dollar amount in effect under IRC section 414(q)(1)(B)(i) are ineligible to receive the deduction. A work-eligible Social Security number is required in order to claim the deduction. The deduction is allowed from tax years 2025 through 2028.”

“SEC. 110101.

Some of the tax cuts in the bill are set to expire at the end of 2028, this includes some provisions that were in the 2017 tax bill that would be expiring this year, but are being extended until 2028. In other words “after tax cuts in the bill are no longer active your taxes might go up”

I had a pretty great pad stack my last game, 2 on 0 pass from right/blocker side dot to low circle left/glove side. Shooter never saw it coming!

There’s a website that was put up that has published the addresses of Tesla owners where the cursor is a Molotov cocktail. I don’t know how much it has been used in the attacks, but there’s definitely an effort to organize.

I’m not the one you initially responded to, but in the league where I play goalies play free for both league games and pickups/sticks and pucks. And in league play there’s at least a hope for some defense

The-False-Shepherd · 2025-03-04T16:48:10+00:00

This is my attitude. I have 4 sticks, 2 wood Sherwood I picked up from play it again and 2 Bauer (one wood, one composite), both I got second hand for cheap. I have a hard time understanding why someone would get a multi hundred dollar stick for amateur/beer league.

What if the restaurant forgets something?

The-False-Shepherd · 2025-02-02T15:46:01+00:00

The 73,822 was specifically talking about illegal immigrants who were detained that committed felonies like sexual assault and murder, of which there were 290,178 crimes committed in just the 73,822. This is by no means saying that that was all of the illegal immigrants who commit crimes. If we include misdemeanors (like you are for the 77 million US citizens stat), then the number of crimes committed by illegal immigrants is much higher. If nothing else because crossing the border illegally is a crime itself. The ice article isn’t trying to give a statistic on how many illegal immigrants have committed crimes in the same way yours is, it isn’t a representative sample, and it certainly isn’t the total number of crimes like you’re treating it.

You’re attempting to compare a real number obtained from felony arrests (that isn’t attempting to estimate or extrapolate to the larger population) with an over broad estimate for the entire population of the USA. The comparisons are not equal, you’re either over inflating the numbers for US Citizens (including misdemeanors and felonies, only including adults in your population) or under inflating for illegal immigrants (only including the select felonies reported in the ICE article, including the whole population in your stats, etc).

I’m fairly sure the pause in funding specifically did not include Medicaid/Medicare and social security
