it's still smoldering as of this morning. they have started demolition on one of the affected buildings.
the fire was in an area described it as an area roughly 6 city blocks by 6 city blocks. in spite of that (huge) size, this is a relatively small overall portion of the former footprint of the original Bethlehem Steel. I think this was one plant where they did cold-rolled stuff (but i could be mistaken).
there were a few businesses in there; self-storage and some type of plastics manufacturer is what's being reported.

drove around it on my commute. messed traffic up everywhere. the smoke was (and still is, 9 hours later) unbelievable.

Edelman plays the whole game as wildcat QB and the Bills are still unable to stop him/Pats*. Pats* rush for 387 yards and only pass for 11. Bills lose 24-6

Bold NFL Prediction: Steelers lead in total offense/points scored but miss playoffs
Bold Bills Prediction: Bills win 5/6 division games but still miss the playoffs

Just started season 1 of American Horror Story. doesn't appear to be much love in this thread for it. It is simply amazing.
weird, scary, thought provoking, sexy at times, intense, etc. highly recommended.

i agree with most of this (except anchor bar, but that's another topic).
however, you need to have Charlie the Butcher for the beef on weck category. this is "real" roast beef and not the thin sliced crap most places serve. and maybe add Steve's Pig and Ox roast on Ridge Road in Lackawanna.

big pet peeve of mine...we are celebrating our independence as a nation and the name of the holiday is Independence Day. we aren't celebrating the day it falls on.
So the proper greeting is "Happy Independence Day". no one walks around saying "Merryy 25th of December" or "Happy January 1st". (i could go on but you get the point).
let's call it by the proper name.
Happy (belated) Independence Day all!

My access code is the last 4 numbers of pi.
you know that pi goes on for infinity, correct? so i'd love to know the "last 4 digits"

All Duffs are not created equal. The original Duffs on Sheridan and the one on Dick road are owned by the original owners i believe, and are the best (IMO). the other others are all franchises, and your mileage may vary.
the best way to order wings at duffs (pro tip here) is "hot but not saucy". this way, they aren't swimming in sauce, but are still plenty spicy.

i voted 8-12. more so because i think they'll be 8-8. not 12-4

maybe it needs a new topic, but what "should" a catch be?

That's what good teams do. No issue with it. What if he got hurt easing into ice tub after the game? He's a football play for Christmas sake...
well we aren't a good team. or at least, we don't have a good record.
again, my point was to use him if the situation calls for it. i.e. in the playoffs, last play of game to get in the playoffs. none of that applied here. he isn't paid to practice or play as a DB. why risk injury in a meaningless play? he didn't get hurt so it's a tough argument. had he got hurt, everyone would be howling.
and for those that are saying, "he's a football player", do you ever see Brady or Manning out there as a DB?
-
it was a bad decision. on top of lots of questionable decisions from the coaching staff this year.
-
its a 9 point game with 3 seconds left. and sammie is on the field. there is no way even with completed TD pass that the Texans can win. Why risk injury to your best offensive player?
this was absolutely hideous. put felton out there, or gragg, or mulligan. but sammie?
nothing came of it thankfully. but that was a horrendous decision. if its the playoffs or game to get in the playoffs, i understand. you go all in. but it was nowhere near the case here.
-
Robin Williams and Steve Martin. always doing stupid impressions. phony both of them. won't watch any movie with them in it.
-
i think the key is that you have to accept the fact that Brady is going to get the ball off before you can get near him. maybe only rush 2 lineman, and drop everyone else back into a loose zone within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage and clog up the throwing lanes. put 5 or 6 defensive backs on the field and then a few linebackers who are fast and/or can cover. exception might be gronk, you put darby or gilmore on him man to man. it can't be any worse than the 1st game
-
I think this is a Patriot move for the Bills. Pick his brain on the Jets defense for a few weeks, then cut him.

That's $9 billion in assets. I'd be interested in what the liabilities side of his balance sheet looks like.
quoting the article: "The two-page document...will show hundreds of millions in cash on hand and an outline of his debts..."
never would have cut it for NFL. I believe the NFL requires cash. "several hundred million" DOES NOT equal $1.4 billion

been following this for a while. i'm a hiring manager looking for a Cisco VoIP engineer. located in buffalo. not sure if that's her specialty, but if it is (or anyone else), hit me up. been looking for months with no luck. i am pretty specific in terms of what i'm looking for. but salary is good.

it appears to mostly affect european banks. but prior to any rash decisions, you should read this article:
