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 :) |

 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.

 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.

 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

 An
Accident of nature- Monday
May 17, 2004
by : Helen Carson

come it colourless? A remarkable sighting Helen Carson shares with you.

 Garage

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

 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.

Show & Demonstration Day- Friday
May 14, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

 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.

by : Timothy W. Shire
