The E.U is nothing but a thorn for Canada, really do not want a free trade agreement with them -

I've watched hockey on NBC and the coverage is crap compared to CBC, TSN...bit better than Sportsnet NBC can dish out 200 million..its freaking NBC! Its the giant in the U.S! I think we can all agree that in the NHL playoffs CBC gives the best coverage of any sport / channel They make the best montages of any channel

If NATO wanted to get the Russians on the table to sanction Iran they could sign a paper declaring they won't point missiles at Russia Russia could talk China into joining them...worth a shot...otherwise instead of solving both problems you have two huge problems (in NATOs eyes, a defensive Russia and a nuclear Iran ..both potentially leading to a large war) http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-15938494 President Dmitry Medvedev ordered the system to be activated on a visit to the radar unit in Kaliningrad, a Baltic region bordering EU countries. The unit is equipped with the new Voronezh-DM radar system. Mr Medvedev has warned Russian missiles could be deployed on the EU's borders if the shield is installed. Washington wants an anti-missile shield ready by 2020, arguing that it is necessary to provide protection from the potential missile threat posed by countries like Iran. Under President George W Bush, the US had initially intended to locate major parts of the shield in Poland and the Czech Republic, but Russia objected vigorously. When Barack Obama took office in the White House, he scaled back the original ambitions. "Nato's missile defence system [is] designed to defend against threats from outside Europe - not designed to alter balance of deterrence," Nato chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen said in a recent tweet. Domestic context In a statement carried by Russian news agencies, Mr Medvedev said: "I expect that this step will be seen by our partners as the first signal of the readiness of our country to make an adequate response to the threats which the missile shield poses for our strategic nuclear forces." Quoted by Interfax, he said: "If our signal is ignored... we will deploy other means of defence including the adoption of tough counter-measures and the deployment of a strike group."

This is getting mixed reviews in China ...some think they will somehow fix commercials into the tv shows but I hope they do this in Canada I don't know many shows that are on right now that run 45 minutes long other than Dexter and there already is no commercials during Dexter Breaking Bad does run 45 minutes long and there are commercials so I'd love to watch Breaking Bad with no commercials Maybe they could do it to shows that are 40 minutes long? Most of us are pretty sick of commercials as it is Good idea or no? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-15933297 China has ordered a ban on advertisements during TV dramas as part of its reform of cultural activities. Adverts will not be allowed in the middle of programmes lasting for 45 minutes from 1 January next year. The authorities said this was in line with the "spirit" of a recent Communist Party meeting. Senior leaders said then that they wanted to develop a "socialist culture", although they did not elaborate on exactly what that means. TV stations are clear about what this latest move means for them though - they say it will result in a loss of revenue. The latest announcement was made by China's State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) on its website. It said the regulation was being introduced as part of a new attitude towards culture, outlined at the party's Central Committee meeting in October. "Radio and television are a mouthpiece of the party and the people - an important propaganda front in cultural thought," read the SARFT statement. An organisation spokesman told Xinhua, the state-run news agency, that the aim was to make TV shows conform to "public interests and aspirations". "In the long-run, the move will help TV dramas develop in a scientific and healthy manner," said the unidentified spokesman.

Boudreau was trying to turn OV into a two way player..its most obvious now that all OV wants to do is play offense This is why OV and the Capitals never advanced past the second round.. you need to play two way hockey in the playoffs to succeed The man wouldn't even block a shot in the Montreal series a few years a go that resulted in a game winning goal I felt so bad for his teammates This is all OV, not Boudreau at all And the OV Crosby debate needs to be put to rest, Crosby is 10 times the hockey player OV is
