Its not the end of the world, its just the
end of civilisation as we know it!- Wednesday
November 3, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Four
more years of Republican policies south of the border will change that nation and
with it, the rest of the world, so much that few will remember the Clinton years
as the economy will force everyone into the dog eat dog world, where only the big
dogs get to eat. Long live Halliburton.

Tim's Tip of the Day
|
 At 3:30 this afternoon I was once again
reminded of the "meaning of life" our young people are the only reason
for our existance and it is our responsibility to keep our world in its best possible
condition for them to enjoy. |
|
Kevin's
find of the day
|
 US extends troops'
time in Iraq As Americans were voting yesterday
the BBC reported that several thousand US troops will get to enjoy Iraq about two
months longer than expected. |
|
Ensign Notes
|
| From now on this web site will not longer be interested in condemning
the actions of Georeg W. Bush. It appears that he was legitimately elected and those
who placed him office must accept the responsibility for the action of he and his
governmentt. |

November 2, 2004

- On current spinning of our language in the United States
and Saskatchewan: the selling of insignificant specific
certitude and shifting the blame
- Tuesday
November 2, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: This story deals with a very serious matter, the whole way in which the world is
presented to us and what is so often done with the basic facts so that we will accept
the unacceptable. The whole story is included in the extensive references.

 It
is an imperfect world- Friday
October 29, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Don't
lose sleep over the American election or the price of gas or any of those other things
that the news people tell us are important. The facts are clear and plain as the
nose on your face, this is an imperfect world and sometimes things, even well planned
things don't work.

October 29, 2004
by : Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls, Ontario
: As deputy prime minister and one of the country's highest ranking cabinet ministers,
Sheila Copps was on the inside and has put what she knows on paper in a new book

 Perceptions- Thursday
October 28, 2004
by : Edwin Wallace
Success : Though the Saskatoon Police have issued an apology to the mother of the
teenager Neil Stonechild for having "let the family down" the ripple affect
of this incident will be felt far into the future. The doubt, the lack of trust is
not just a rumor it is now a legal opinion and every need be concerned about their
safety if it involves the Saskatoon Police service.
|
 Dealing
with SaskTel: need of clarity- Thursday
October 28, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
:SaskTel's 2003 annual report goes on page after page dealing with changes to its
accounting procedures and as customers we can see and notice the changes as charges
and the way they are applied seem to alter from bill to bill.

 Flea
Market brings out the talented and the clever- Tuesday
October 26, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

a show. Friday and Saturday Tisdale's craft show and Flea Market that has often been

showing off some both the ordinary and the unique.

 Poppy Coin- Monday
October 25, 2004
by : Rebecca Gingrich
Princeton Ontario
: Almost some copyright infringement, it looks like the Canadian mint has sold out
to an American owned business as it flogs coins while tredding on Canadian sentiment
for November 11. The poppy really belongs to Canada's veterans and is not something
that the mint can fiddle with for profit. (update to this story October 27)

Report- Monday
October 25, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford

 Saskatoon’s Synchrotron: the myth of a new vision for Saskatchewan- Friday
October 22, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: Though many herald the official opening of the synchrotron as a major and significant
development in this province and for all this country. Here is quite a different
take on this project.
|
 Coffee
in the Mall- Friday
October 22, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : No
one is crying the blues at the Tisdale Mall since the closing of the west
anchor of the operation. Instead the mall businesses have just pulled out the stops
to make the mall shoping experience even better. Tattered Corners has added
coffee to its sales.

 The
silver time machine- Thursday
October 21, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale
: The camera in one form or another has been around for more than a century and
a half and during that time the magic of silver crystals have captured the light
and shadows of the past. In those light and shadows we can find significant evidence
of what once was and what life was like when that light was rendered onto paper,
glass or plastic. (The owner of these images, Tisdale Credit Union
is in full agreement with their appearance on this web site.)

 No

a Dairy Queen franchise owner bought this lot between the Co-op Cardlock
and 7-11.

 The Greenwater
Report- Tuesday
October 19, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : With businesses closed and harvest all but over our man at the park
is suffering from what he calls "coffee withdrawal". As winter settles
in its time for a fall fair or two and time to reflect on the harvest.

- Today's perception of democracy:
 understanding
the economics of whims from the economics of needs
- Tuesday
October 19, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: At the heart of this complex story Mr. deSantis is concerned at the awarding of
the Nobel prize for economics to two rather mundaine professors, one in California
and the other in Arizona. The issue of what is better for the world is really what
this is about and with many outstanding references you have the opportunity in this
story to find out some truths for yourself.
