Snorkel and mask tipsWritten by Jakob Jelling
Continued from page 1
Besides your mask, fins you choose are a very important part of your snorkel complementary equipment as well. The fins you choose should fit you and allow you to feel comfortable while wearing them as well as they should adapt to specific kind of diving activities you will practice. You should make sure that they fit you and adjust to your fit size but without making you loose mobility. Another very important factor which might have a great impact on way you practice and enjoy diving is way you feel while being into water. In order to be able to enjoy your diving practice you must be able to relax and feel comfortable while using your snorkel as well as while being in water. This is a must if you wish to start practicing this sport and acquiring new skills and techniques, you can not practice this activity if you feel scared of water or of using a snorkel.

Continued from page 1 The players are fighting to maintain a lifestyle. They have grown accustomed to fancy cars and houses. They are fighting for money, because they know that in a so-called free market system, salaries can and will escalate, even with a 20+% rollback. Hell, they can cut their salaries in half if they want, it will be back to today's average within 2 years, and escalate well beyond that afterwards. There is nothing wrong with a salary cap. Having more healthy competitive teams will increase fan base if more teams have a shot year to year. That will increase league revenues with players will need to make sure they can monitor and get a substantial piece of, salary cap or not. Bottom line, players will lose money of next couple of years WHEN THEY FINALLY SIGN A DEAL. How long will they continue to make NO MONEY before they sign for LESS MONEY? One thing is for certain, most of players making average salary or less cannot be happy with direction of negotiations. Tie Domi recently blasted Pierre McGuire for daring to say that a truly anonymous vote will result in 70% of NHLPA accepting some form of cap. While Pierre agreed that a percentage should not be used, it would still be a significant number. Our own source confirms same. 2004-05 season is lost, and if there is no progress next year, look for some of lower end guys to start speaking out. Tie will have his hands full trying to keep his intimidation tactics as those numbers start to grow. Final result: Game Misconduct on NHLPA
