3-2 Sudden Death OT Canada Wins

In a big upset to team USA, Canada's olympic hockey team beat US within the first few minutes of sudden death overtime. It's one of the most fast paced hockey games I've seen since watching clips from the great miracle on ice (not the movie Miracle... the actual miracle) when USA beat Russia in the 1980 Olympics 3-2.
But tonight, I was upset that USA lost the match... and won silver instead.

It was an incredible game and both Canada and the US teams had great games prior to this gold medal final. Only 3 inches to the left Canada wouldn't have made that shot like in the Mighty Ducks and the ol' "Triple Deke" where Emilio Estevez (supposed to be a kid) misses the shot. Too bad Canada's players are a bit more skilled than a fictional pee-wee hockey player.

Killer WHALE Attack

As most of you have probably read about the killer whale killing its instructor lately. But in this link from the BBC website I learned that orca whale attacks seem to happen pretty often. To me this news strikes me as useless to make such a big deal compared to news such as word from the war on Iraq or any economic corruption. I believe that this situation is too hyped up. I understand it was a death of a person but the news never mentioned the other attacks that have happened before.

Too bad orca whales are nothing like willy in the classic movie Free Willy. Unlike this whale ---> this guy will be hurtin' after that.

Grown Up Digital

In Grown up Digital, Don Tapscott introduces the idea of the new Net Generation. The generation that is accustomed to technology such as internet and wi-fi and also as he puts it "VCR's" (Whatever that is... ;)...). His introduction also has insight from people who feel how the new generation of technology has greatly hurt our generation as a whole and labeled us as dumb, or anxious.

I disagree with those who oppose new technology and to state that they themselves are dumb if they can't work the internet. I feel that our generation is stronger than any other generation there ever was and I also feel that the next generation will be even stronger.

Lastly, Don Tapscott warned our generation to withhold on giving out our information and pictures on the web... I partially agree with him with the fact that your prospective boss doesn't need to find a picture of you engulfing the porcelain throne because of too much to drink when he/she is doing research on her prospective employee. But, I also disagree because those scandalous pictures of us can be blocked from public viewing with an easy click of your mouse.
