Oh no, not again!

What does that mean, home ice advantage?

What does that mean, home ice advantage?

A playoff series in hockey is up to seven games long, with the winner of the series being the first team to win 4 games. Home ice advantage means that the team with the better regular season record will play four of seven games at home, if the series lasts for the full seven games.

The team with home ice advantage plays games 1, 2, 5, and 7 at home and the other team plays games 3, 4, and 6 at home.

Thank you for the explanation!

Watching the opening face off at the Pats St. Patrick's day game. The team is wearing special green jerseys.

 

[scifan57]

The jerseys were auctioned off during the game and I ended up with the goalie's jersey. Unfortunately the Pats lost 1-4. They're in the playoffs, however, which start on the 27th.

It seems like they go through a rough patch at the moment. Hopefully that'll change when the playoffs start.

I certainly hope their luck changes in the playoffs.

Making preparations to watch the partial solar eclipse on Friday with my students, without solar eclips goggles, so that they keep a positive memory of the event, and their vision doesn't get impaired.

If you get any pictures of the eclipse make sure to post them.

The eclipse will take place before noon, when I'm at school and teaching, so it's possible that I won't be able to take pictures, but I'll certainly try.

Checking the delivery status of my MacBook.
It's in Vienna, so it should arrive today.

Just been viewing the eclipse of the Sun. Unfortunately not a total as we are a bit out of the track. Then clouds started forming. Still, I did actually get 2 photos using my iPad. A bit small but I hope to enlarge on my PC.
