Ok, I happen to catch this story this afternoon on Digg, and had to comment about it.
Everyone seems to think they know what the President thinks and stands for, I usually say you can tell a lot about a person by the people you keeps friends with. This is the story : "Zinsmeister: ‘I’ll Never Hire Another Woman Because They Just Get Pregnant And Leave’". This is the domestic policy adviser that Bush chose to have? Can you really be more obtuse. I agree that in certain functions, a woman getting pregnant and taking Maternity leave can cause some headaches for a company, but to go to the extent of saying that because woman can get pregnant, and may choose to take leave to spend time with their children, you'll never hire one again?. I think it is a great move for a family to have a parent home with their children at a young age, that is when they learn the basics of life.
thats my rant for today.

Hockey
Well after last night's game, which was a good one to watch, Ottawa leads 3-0 in the series against Buffalo. They played well, allowing only 15 shots against Emery. Anytime you can limit a playoff game to 15 shots on your goaltender, your chances of winning increase greatly.
I am looking forward to see Ottawa in the finals, and unless they decide to pull a similar feat as the New York Yankees in 2004, and lose a 3-0 lead against the Boston Red Sox, we will be seing them in the next round.
Ottawa needs to keep playing the way they are, back-checking, pinching on those long passes along the blue line, and keep driving the net. I must say that in the last minutes of last night's game, i started getting worried, because Buffalo was putting on the pressure around the net. Similar to Saturday night's game when Buffalo's Daniel Briere scored with 5.8 seconds left in the third period.
let's see how Wednesday's game goes.
Go SENS Go.

That's 1 for Canada
Well, after game one of the Ottawa Buffalo series, Ottawa managed a 5-2 win. It was a reversal of the last series between these two teams. Ottawa showed that it has learned from the past, and showed that it can play in the playoffs. Whether or not they can continue this streak, only time will tell us.
A few players of note, have shown maturity that is needed to win playoff games. Jason Spezza, for one, has learned to play two way hockey. Daniel Alfredsson, is playing like he did in the Olympics. Emery is looking sharp. Some of the other players are also stepping up their playing, Chris Neil, is doing what Chris Neil does. Mike Fischer played a spectacular game last night, scoring one, and laying some hard hits throughout the game.
It will no doubt make for an interesting series, as I cheer for our last remaining Canadian team. Go SENS Go.
