McColgan a Product of Burgeoning California Hockey Scene
2012-04-19 21:09:00
By Bob Crawford Shane McColgan, who joined the Connecticut Whale April 4 from the Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League, grew up amid the sun and surf of Manhattan Beach, California, not exactly a hockey hotbed. Fifteen or 20 years ago, a California-bred hockey player would have been a real novelty, but according to McColgan, youth hockey in his home state is taking off. ?It?s (the level of play) pretty high, and I?ve told everyone that asks me, it goes up every year, it increases,? McColgan said in a conversation before a recent Whale game in Portland, Maine.  ?And you?ll see a lot of guys coming up in the next few years.? The addition of McColgan gave the Whale two Californians on their roster, as fellow forward Casey Wellman hails from Brentwood. Another Los Angeles area native, Ryan Hollweg, was a member of the then Hartford Wolf Pack in 2004-05 and 2005-06, and he cited the trade of Wayne Gretzky from the Edmonton Oilers to the LA Kings in 1988 as the impetus for h...

MINIMUM WAGE CRISIS
2012-04-02 16:00:00
Looks like there won't be a mass uprising for a raise of the American minimum wage soon. Why? Because Americans are just too busy working to afford the most basic of necessities--housing! According to an infographic based on statistics from the National Low Income Housing Coalition workers have to toil for up to hundreds of hours to afford decent housing (a 2-bedroom unit at fair market rent) under minimum wage. Some of the frightening numbers include 136 hours in New York, 130 hours in California and a whopping 175 hours in Hawaii! Keeping in mind that there are only 168 hours in a week, these statistics are pretty out of this world!
