Tim's Tip of the Day

Play is the work of children and the tools of their work will have a power influence on their development as people.

Kevin's find of the day

Abe Books.com
If you're ever looking for a book try these guys. Yes you can buy used from Amazon but I just bought two used hard covers today for a buck each and $6 shipping. I could have bought another that was released a few months ago [hard cover] for $3.09 but that was $.09 over my flinch point :)

Tisdale Calendar
of Events


Air Canada: Waiting at the brink
Wednesday
May 19, 2004
by : David Orchard
Borden : It appears at times the we forget our historical successes and wander off into oblivious following trendy ideological theories. Canada was built by public and private cooperation, Canadian Pacific, Canadian National, Trans Canada Airlines each filled a need in a very big country. The country is just as big now as it ever was and the need to pull it together greater than ever.

Building a back yard
Tuesday
May 18, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : One of the new houses built last summer on Forester Crescent is getting its back yard.

Skies, snow and more skies
Tuesday
May 18, 2004
by : Judy and Timothy Shire
LaRonge : This is a set of fourteen pictures that tell a story of their own as they were taken over the last ten days, a time when things have been changing rapidly.

Summer wheels
Tuesday
May 18, 2004
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : My heart lifts up when I behold a topless car. Today's outstanding weather conditions put a smile on the people in Tisdale but just looking at this beautiful car with its top down made me grin.

The Greenwater Report
Monday
May 17, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : Birds, birds and more birds as the feather ones of summer are happily visiting Gerald and Doreen while it stills seem a bit cold.

Reform to betray Harper's "no hard feelings"
Monday
May 17, 2004
by : Rob Shanahan
Hamilton, Ontario : The inner core of Stephen Harper's Conservative party is the party's ultimate downfall. Harper's advisors, his co-conspirator, Peter McKay and the old time reformers are what they are and it isn't pretty.

Peter MacKay met by angry protesters in Mississauga
Monday
May 17, 2004
by:
Bernd Mueller
Toronto : Canada's federal elections are won and lost in southern Ontario. This first hand account of a nomination meeting in Mississauga tells us that things do not look rosy for the conservative party.

An Accident of nature
Monday
May 17, 2004
by : Helen Carson
Crooked River : If it looks like a finch and has a bill like a finch maybe it's a finch but how come it colourless? A remarkable sighting Helen Carson shares with you.

Garage saling
Friday
May 14, 2004
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : This week there are sales all over town and we visit some of them and bring you some of the atmosphere.

GPS surveying
Friday
May 14, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : New technology often becomes standard operating methods simply because all of what it replaces can no longer compete with the accuracy and speed of the invention. In this case a system for guiding Intercontinetal Balistic Missiles works just as well directing a sprayer in a field or discovering where the corner is of a town lot.

Acklands Grainger: Trade Show & Demonstration Day
Friday
May 14, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Monday's event showed off the outstanding technical and safety equipment that is available from this remarkable local supplier.

New Condo Construction well underway
Thursday
May 13, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : A project like this one seems to evolve rather quickly especially at its beginning stages. This story has pictures of the piles being dug and poured, the services being dug in and the exterior foundation forms being erected.

Bush’s God cannot win the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people
Thursday
May 13, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : This article is a summary of a series of articles and material that paints a very unfavourable picture of our American neighbours. The Iraqi prison torture story is disturbing, but even more disturbing is the death of an American in Iraq, which has the timing, that suggests this was a sacrifice rather than execution, as it provides Americans with justification for their war crimes.

RCMP open house and barbeque
Thursday
May 13, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Over three hundred people made it over to the Tisdale detachment today to enjoy lunch and a visit with the folks at the detachment. There was sunshine smiles and an enjoyable time was had by all.
