Is this the one to wrap up of the season, or . . .is this the opener
of the season wrap up?- Friday
February 27, 2004
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Just under a block of visibility, wet snow falling with a temperature of
-2 and about ten knots of wind from the North. Lovely, we expect to see about 15cm
of snow out of this and highways are all clear though the visibility is troublesome
with a weather warning still in effect at 5:00 when these pictures were taken.

Weekes : As the temperature edges upward the thoughts
of everyone in this part of the world move toward the primary industry. Farmers are
moving their grain to the terminals and it is definitely time to talk about farm
business.

Tim's Tip of the Day
|
| If you spend even a modest amount of time using your computer learn the basic
keystrokes to copy and paste. You can save a huge amount of time sweeping something
then copying it and then pasting it where you need that phrase, number or whatever,
then typing it out or even going to the menus to impliment copy and paste. |

 Its not easy being
mean- Wednesday
February 25, 2004
by : Judy Shire
La Ronge : The sky in this northern community is often
quite different from what we see only a few hours South. The spindly ragged trees
are the northern imitation for palm trees and just as exotic.

 Going to the Chapel
. . . part I- Wednesday
February 25, 2004
by : Cassandra Shire
Winnipeg : A lot of energy and planning goes into a
wedding, after all it is an investment in a lifetime for two people and the effort
that goes into the project is a part of the realisation of its importance. This is

 They just didn't
nab him!- Friday
February 20, 2004
by: Edwin Wallace
Success : How soon we all forget. The years that
followed Grant Devine's defeat were years where the main Saskatchewan news stories
dealt with the latest criminal investigation of yet another member of the Devine
government. The kingpin of those cases was that of Deputy Premier Eric Bernsten.
Though Grant Devine was never officially implicated, as with the scandal in Quebec
of the Liberal's making, also begs the question, as to how could such things be going
on and the boss not knowing about it?

 Grassroots mowed down- Friday
February 20, 2004
by: Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls : The Conservative Party's Interim Committee
chairperson Don Plett says that the committee wants to keep the party "pure".
Seems like the Reform/Alliance/Conservatives have held to their principles all along.
Stephen Harper was a declared Alberta Separatist who is seeking the
leadership of the party, Grant Devine is one of Canadians politicians who fought
and stood for Canadian Unity.
