Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 In the saga to find the best breakfast I went to the Beeland
Co-op this morning, the breakfast was fair but was served on a paper plate. What
I did find was Tisdale's worst cup of coffee. Didn't smell like coffee, didn't taste
like coffee, seemed to be a brown bio-fluid with a hint of toxic waste flavour. Got
someone you don't like send them to the Co-op for coffee. |

 Music industry targets even computer-less.
(PDF) This American Press story by Ted Bridis reports on the
efforts of the US music industry to stomp on those sharing music files with others. |

 The hypocrisy of the American Free Market
and the fallacy of Productivity: Agricultural subsidies, steel tariff,
quota on bras, and casualties of wars- Wednesday
December 3, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: Though the Americans preach the wonders of
the free market system yet at every turn they do everything possible to undermine
and conflict with that same system when it is not to their advantage. This story
has outstanding references that illustrate the points made.

 Signs of Economic
Recovery Haven't Trickled Down- Wednesday
December 3, 2003
by: Mark Weisbrot
Washington: The Economy of the United States talks big, well sort of Texan at that,
but even though it showed a remarkable 8.2% growth in the last quarter the employment
rate and other economic indicators have not matched the action on Wall Street.

 Marriage, be it
same sex, same family, same harem- Monday
December 1, 2003
by: Ron Thornton
Edmonton: The same day that a Saskatoon Member of Parliament
was embarrassing himself and his party over this issue, an Edmonton reporter wanted
to find out what Liberal Member of Parliament really thought about it and she reported
what he said. Our man in Edmonton, Ron Thornton took exception to her comments. Might
be a good idea to read the references first then this story.

 The Conservative Party of
Canada: An 'evolution' of the Tory Party? ... or Reform's latest guise?- Monday
December 1, 2003
by: Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls: It is clear now that Alliance members
have swamped the Progressive Conservative Party's process to vote on a merger. As
with so many things that seem attractive when you want them, once you get them, is
this really a workable situation or just yet another name change.
