Why Mississauga is a pluton

Why Mississauga is a pluton is a hilarious editorial about the new planet classification system using lots of analogies about TO.

Real Madrid

I went to see the Real Madrid - DC United football (soccer) match last night a Qwest Field (with my Mom who is in town this week). It was the second soccer game that I've attended (and the first for my Mom). I went to see Manchester United beat Celtic FC three years ago when they were in Seattle.

Zidane retired, but Real Madrid has David Beckham and the recently acquired Ruud van Nistelrooy. They were clearly the better team, controlling the possession and flow of the game and getting a lot more chances, but they couldn't get any breaks and missed all but one of their chances. In the end it ended up a 1-1 draw.

The Seattle PI has more details.

Prague
