Universal Music was at it again in 2009 with yet another compilation. This one was called ‘Legends of Rock’ and was exclusive to Canada like so many others. They were pumping these out and trying to grab as much cash as they could since Kiss was no longer on their label. I do like the old photograph from the ‘Dressed to Kill’ era that was the cover. It was a decent set with 15 tracks, but nothing really special or unexpected. Same old, same old, you’d say. It is a bare bones set, but at least they had some write-up…

After weeks (or in some cases, months!) of holiday shopping, most consumers are getting ready to kick back and relax with an eggnog in hand and open their gifts. Sounds merry, right? Unfortunately, retailers still have a good chunk of their holiday work ahead of them: the not-so-beloved tradition of sorting through customer returns. For shoppers, returning items continues to be easier than ever and even with updated return policies and restrictions, the amount of returns continues to grow: according to the NRF, about 17% of all goods purchased in 2024 will be returned, totaling $890 billion. That’s up from…

Aside from putting on an excellent display, the Portuguese international scored Milan’s third and decisive goal. His strong performance seemed to bring plenty…

When you’re shopping around for a new hockey stick, its curve may be one of the last things you notice. If you overlook it, however, you could be hurting your game without even knowing it. That’s because a hockey stick’s curve can have a significant impact on how you perform on the ice, and you need to keep that in mind when gearing up for your next game. For example, if you’re a defenseman that handles the puck more often than taking a shot, you’ll probably want a different curve than you would if you were a…

New York CNN Business  —  A tumultuous quarter at Tesla ended with some very good sales numbers. The company delivered 83,500 vehicles during the third quarter, a strong performance that should calm investor fears about logistical problems and a looming cash crunch. That included almost 56,000 of the lower-priced Model 3. Production was a bit below that number: Tesla said it built about 53,000 Model 3s. But that was within the company’s projections. Only three months ago, the company struggled to build 5,000 Model 3s in a week, a long-delayed target. Tesla did not maintain that pace, but production was…
