Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 Young people need summer jobs. The work they do helps
them to determine what they like and more importantly, what they do not like. We
have a large number of really outstanding people who could add considerably to your
business, so give the the student employment centre a call. 873-4257 |
|
Kevin's find of the day
|
 Grease and God:
Mechanics jump-start spirituality (pdf) From CNN comes this story about providing mission roadside and
repair assistance to perform outreach work as part of a church's ministry. |
|
Ensign Notes
|
| It was no surprise today to discover that everyone I talked to
is discouraged by the persistence of the low temperatures. We all seem to long for
even a bit of spring yet we are now less than a month from the first day of summer. |

Nipawin : The
Iraq expedition is definitely losing its popularity with the American public but

and the overseas dialer- Tuesday
May 25, 2004
by: Kevin McIntyre
Carrot River
: If you are using Windows and dial-up to connect to the Internet watch
out for some sneaky pop-up menus that might appear while you surfing the web one
wrong click and a nasty programme will reset your connection number from the one
you have to an obscure island of the West coast of Africa.

 Change- Tuesday
May 25, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : This is a simple concept but one that needs to be thoroughly examined.
Just like people who want to purchase an electric drill really don't want a drill,
but want holes. So it is that once we get a handle on what the world is about we
are in a better position to make changes.

 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.

its top down made me grin.
