Washington the Latest City to Launch Major League Rugby Team
A New York City-based Certified Public Accountant, Timothy "Tim" Maleck is experienced in providing financial analysis and preparing financial statements. Supplementing his experience, Timothy Maleck holds a master’s degree in accounting from SUNY Buffalo, where he was a member of the school's nationally ranked rugby team.
Major League Rugby (MLR) began its inaugural season in April 2018 with seven United States-based teams and has already gained momentum for expansion in the near future. A New York team will join the league for the 2019 season, while a team was recently granted to Washington, DC, for no later than the start of the 2020 season. Former US Eagles fullback Paul Sheehy and businessman Chris Dunlavey led efforts to secure the MLR expansion franchise in the nation's capital, regarded as one of the country's largest rugby markets.
The ownership group generated excitement for the new team with an exhibition match played between South Africa and Wales at Washington's RFK Stadium on June 2. The 57-year-old stadium, however, isn't certain to be the home stadium of the Washington MLR team. Along with New York, the Washington franchise will be the only MLR team east of New Orleans, as the other seven teams are based on the West Coast. As a result, MLR Commissioner Dean Howes anticipates a natural rivalry forming between New York and Washington.

Understanding the Offside Rule in Hockey
Drawing on over five years of experience in the financial sector, Timothy "Tim" Maleck is a Certified Public Accountant based in New York City. When he isn't working, Timothy Maleck enjoys playing and watching a variety of sports, including hockey.
The concept of hockey is quite simple in that two opposing teams are attempting to score as many goals as possible to win the game. However, there are some rules that new fans might find confusing, one of which is offside. To understand the rule, it's important to see the ice surface as three separate zones: the defending zone, the offensive zone, and the neutral zone, which takes up the middle third of the ice and separates the two opposing zones.
In simplest terms, the puck must enter the offensive zone before any of the players on the attacking team. For instance, if an attacking player carried the puck into the offensive zone while one of his teammates was already in the zone, the play would be whistled offside by the linesman. However, the player must have both skates inside the zone for the play to be offside. One of the easiest ways to avoid an offside call is to chip the puck over the blue line and allow your teammates to chase it instead of trying to make a move around a defender that might cause your teammates to enter the zone before you.

The Best Dive Sites in Bali
An experienced financial services professional, Timothy (Tim) Maleck has served as a financial associate in New York City since 2015. When away from work, he enjoys traveling the world to scuba dive. One of Timothy Maleck’s favorite diving destinations is the Indonesian island of Bali.
Scuba divers of all skill levels can enjoy exceptional diving in Bali. All around the island, the offshore waters support a rich and colorful array of fish and living coral. Some of the most-sought-after species in these waters are the Mola mola and the manta Ray.
Divers who want to spot Mola molas, the massive ocean sunfish, flock to Bali’s Crystal Bay from between August and October. The best place to see a manta ray, by contrast, is just off the aptly named Manta Point.
The most famous dive site in Bali is home to one of the best and most accommodating shipwrecks in the world. The sunken USS Liberty offers the opportunity to view marine life such as the garden eel and the black tip shark, all while exploring a 130-meter-long ship that is roughly 5 meters deep at its shallowest point and about 30 meters deep at its deepest.
