Tim's Tip
of the Day
|
What we think we see and what we think we understand, both demand reasonable doubt. |
Kevin's find of the day
|
Lotto winner farms
first, claims millions later. This story was also carried by at least a dozen other Canadian and US papers. Larry Greenbank
is 55 and farms the family farm at Kelso. The school in Kelso is called "Greenbank
School". Kelso is a Hamlet eight miles East and North of Wawota and fifteen
miles South of Moosomin. |

- Exporting the
American democracy in Iraq: The Free Market of Deregulation and Privatization
- Friday
September 26, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: Mr. deSantis has spotted an interesting inversion
both criminals being placed in power and dogmatic imposition of economic formats
that are site specific. What works in America is not necessarily what will work in
Iraq, Afghanistan to Venezuela. The references on this story are exceptional and
give you an opportunity to explore this topicmuch more fully than an interpretive
summary.
|
|
- Washington Pursues
Dangerous Policy in Vernezuela
- Friday
September 26, 2003
by: Mark Weisbrot
Washington: The actions of the American government attempting
to desabilise and over throw a democratically elected government is setting a bad
example and could seriously undermine the international relations around the world
including the way countries relate to the United States.

- "As we rush along, are
we running, or being pushed?"
- Thursday
September 25, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Insight into the human condition. One way or
another we all wonder what is it all about and where do we go from here. Here are
some clues.

- AeroCat
- Wednesday
September 24, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire and Andrew Shire
Oshkosh Wisconsin: An amateur/homebuilt fibre glass,
carbon fibre amphibian sold here in Canada and in New Zealand with one or two engines
and amazing performance. The second most astonishing aircraft at this year's Oshkosh
AirVenture.

- Only the Progressive
Conservatives are facing the issues
- Wednesday
September 24, 2003
by: Jason Inness
Calgary: As the Progressive Conservative and Canadian
Alliance negotiate some sort of agreement Jason Inness points out that the federal
Liberal party has been pretty well absent from responding to the series of crisis
facing the country and the Alliance has been wasting time on emotional issues. He
feels only the Progressive Conservatives are dealling with things that really matter.

- Beriev Be-103
- Tuesday
September 23, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Oshkosh, Wisconsin: Though the OshKosh AirVenture is
an amateur/homebuilt convention the star of the show this year was a commercial aircraft
designed and build in Russia. This remarkable, low wing, twin engined, amphibian
is simply off the scale in innovation and outstanding engineering. For me this was
the most exceptional aircraft of the thousands to be seen at this incredible event.

- IMF and World Bank: the
international business of privatisation
- September 23, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: This brief story summarises the underlying
issues that affect the development of the third world which is suppose to be one
of the goals of these American dominated institutions. Check out the references as
we have included some actual news stories from Dubia with a viewpoint from that part
of the world.

- Doghide trails,
Tisdale's special place
- Monday
September 22, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The hiking trails and park area along
the Doghide is a place where you can escape to a never never land that is ever changing
and always special. This story includes a QuickTime VR panorama (360MB).

- The Greenwater report
- September 22, 2003
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park: Fall closes in on the park
as Homstols are building a new cabin and Gerald got his boat lift out of the water.
All this and more.

- Delorme's Steel
& Repair expands, again
- Sunday
September 21, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Since this business began operations it has
been a scene of continous growth demonstrating not only the popularity of this business
but of the continued growth and development of the community in which it operates.
|
|
- Understanding Bush's bloody dollar and
American foreign policies
- Sunday
September, 21, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
Nipawin: You must read this story carefully because
both in Geoffrey Heard's explanation and in the references for this story is the
basic conditions that are allowing the United States to muddle along deeply in debt
and still considered the world's strongest economy.

- Peter MacKay's speech on the
Alliance same-sex motion
- Sunday
September, 21, 2003
by: Peter MacKay
Ottawa: This issue has been emotionalised and taken
to such extremes and it might be useful for us to read a moderate approach to the
issue that has both reason and a desire to see a peaceful resolution come about.
Peter MacKay is leader of the Progressive Conservative party and it is interesting
to note that he has for some years had a close relationship with a Halifax woman
in public but they have chosen not to marry.

- Curiousity Corner Mural
- Sunday
September 21, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The addition of a mural to a blank wall on
main street is a major addition to the communities appearance.
