Busy disaster day, lessons from the universe, Star Wars news and Rangers back to winning

Busy, busy day today. Lots of things to do, lots of things to go wrong. The company started rolling out new anti virus software. In theory it was goodbye McAfee and hello Norton. For some people it was. One log off and reboot later and I was McAfee free. One further reboot and I was NOT blessed with Norton. A third reboot didn't do the trick either. One of my virtual machines on the other hand quite happily dumped McAfee and started to install Norton before it ran out of disk space. Once this was sorted it wouldn't connect to get the updates and then started reporting that all the signatures were missing, or corrupt and needed updating but still no updates worked! So that will be TWO tickets tomorrow! To cap it all off my real work was crashing down around my ears with the latest build having some issues by the end of the day so I'll be giving out some bad news to those that are expecting a release sign off very soon! Busy... and a bit of a disaster.

The universe has taught me a lot of the past week or so. One of these things is about the manifestation of desire. If you do things right and lay good foundations then everything will fall into place. Sometimes you just have to be patient and trust for it to happen. It can be quicker than you think!

I've also learned this (and I AM working on it, honest!!!!!)

After a short break from the worlds of Stars Wars it was back to it today. Season five of The Clone Wars continued. In other Star Wars news Lucasfilm has just been announced that shooting for Episode VII begins in May at Pinewood Studios. It was also revealed that Episode VII will take place 30 years after Return Of The Jedi. For us purists that makes it 34 ABY (34 years After the Battle of Yavin). The film will "star a trio of new young leads along with some very familiar faces." I can feel my excitement levels going through the roof the nearer we get to release date!

Finished the day off watching New York Rangers v Ottawa Senators. The signs weren't good as Ottawa took a 0 - 1 lead but thankfully Rick Nash leveled it up short handed not long afterwards. Rangers penalty kill let them down again as Ottawa made it 1 - 2. First period ended 1 - 2 in favour of the Senators. Rangers weren't playing badly but they need to tighten up a bit on defence. With11:04 left in the second period the Rangers tied it up again to 2 - 2. Rangers took the lead for the first time making it 3 - 2 at 15:48. With 1:16 left in the period John Moore made it 4 - 2 for the Rangers. 15 seconds left and we get another Rangers goal from John Moore and the period ended 5 - 2 to the Rangers. Senators pulled one back to 5 - 3 after they got away with some offside play after the puck was way outside the blue line. At 02:40 Rangers get the comfort zone back and it's a 6 - 3 game. 4:45 and Brassard made it 7 - 3. Sadly at 12:49 the Senators got back to scoring ways making it 7 - 4. Senators pulled their netminder with three minutes left. Rick Nash filled the empty net with 2:30 left to make it 8 - 4. The third period ended with Rangers winning the game 8 - 4. 

Netminder Henrik Lundqvist set a franchise record as he picked up his 302nd win overtaking the previous Rangers all time win holder Mike Richter. Let's Go Rangers!
