Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 It is up to you to figure out the moral
of this story. I cashed in three lotto tickets today two "were not winners"
the third cost $3 as it was a 6/49 with the Plus. The pay out was $2. |
|
Kevin's
find of the day
|
 Hitler
had nukes, says historian This story carried in
a munber of Austalian papers this weekend explains that by the winter of 44/45 the
Third Reich had a device but it was not yet compact enough for aerial delivery. |

 A Tory Kyoto
Protocol Primer- Saturday
March 5, 2005
by : Brian Marlatt

With other issues at hand the federal government has agreed to the United Nations
Kyoto Protocol without a plan of action, even put money into the current budget.
Back in 2003 the Progressive Conservative Party worked out its concerns about global
warming and here is a basic discussion of the issue with very useful academic annotated
bibliography to help anyone who wants to explore in more detail the ramifications
of dealing with global warming.

- It could have been prevented
 Friday
March 4, 2005
by : Edwin Wallace
Success :With
such a tragic loss of life this is really not the time for the Deputy Prime Minister
to set about making political hay. The emotional and political context of this incident
cloud over the simple inherent danger in a society like that in Alberta which worships
deadly weapons.
|
 Frost- Friday
March 4, 2005
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : A photo
essay celebrating the last glorious and perhaps glamourous days of winter.

 Thursday
March 3, 2005
by : Mario desantis
Prince Albert
: There is a perverse reality that exists south of the border where excuses become
facts and evidence is irrelevant if it does not suit the political agenda.
|
 Young

February 24, 2005

Good". An election budget with something for everybody sometime. The question
is, is this good for Canada?
|
