Snow, Blue and an Emperor
- Monday
September 27, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale :The
annual migration of arctic birds has begun and as it the case every spring and fall
they stop off for a week or more in this part of Saskatchewan. Some years farmers
are not particularly pleased with them but this year with the value of the crop in
the fields being what it is they are just part of the landscape.

Tim's Tip of the Day
|
Definitely
not a "Hollywood" movie "Hero"
is special. The film is beautiful, it does not focus on story but on a theme that
will stick with you long after the haunting music leaves your ears. A must see! |
|
Kevin's
find of the day
|
Britney Spears's
"Faux" Wedding. The Smoking Gun web site
has the document that recording superstar and Kevin Federline signed agreeing to
a non-wedding before their fake wedding and obtaining a wedding license in the next
90 days and may actually get married after September 25. |
|
Ensign Notes
|
| Have to look into reorganising the earth's rotation, the days
are just not long enough to get things done. |

On the Myth of Economics’
Productivity Growth: Avoiding Taxes, Establishing
Foreign Subsidiaries and Exporting American Jobs
- Monday
September 27, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert : It is almost a matter of religious faith that if you are able to
do more in less time with less resources then you are on your way to profits and
economic heaven. This concept is a myth and this article shatters that myth.
|
REFORM:
another word for covering the assets of businesses, experts and politicians
- Saturday
September 25, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: The catch word for modern politicians is "refrom" it seems that they
believe that the public will buy a major overhaul of a programme rather than funding
or supporting the programme the way it was originally conceived.

Lutheran

- Friday
September 24, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

Scales
reptile zoo
- Friday
September 24, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : A display
at the Tisdale Mall is certainly worth a visit and the folks will give you an opportunity
to handle their unique collection of pets.

Save

- Friday
September 24, 2004
by : Rob Shanahan
Hamilton, Ontario
: The original Toronto Star story is no longer available free online but Rob
Shanahan points out the obvious and important points from the story that emphasis
a need for us all to look to our own land for the best model for the future.

- Thursday
September 23, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : Kicking
made a big difference in today's game as punting moved the ball deep into Rider territory
and converts and field goals were carried out with certainty.

House
number fives sets new standard for bad engineering
- Wednesday
September 22, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : The
disappointment the new owners of this house must have felt as they have watched for
the whole summer, their instant home, dither time away. The simple setting of a foundation
and placing of a modular home has consumed the whole summer and laid waste to three
residential lots to accomplish this simple project.

Report
- Tuesday
September 21, 2004
by: Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : The leaves turned colour and Gerald has been keeping a close eye

|
- Jeffrey Simpson preventative economic solution:
more money into higher education rather than health
Tuesday
September 21, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: The worship to the god of "productivity " can lead some economists to
draw conclusions and make suggestions that are simply not rooted in imperical evidence.
Now that's a problem.

Must

- Monday
September 20, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Winnipeg : Now that's something you don't see every day. Across from the Polo
Park mall on Wednesday night this Toyota took a tumble. This story includes a QuickTime
Panorama of the scene.

The
Model A
- Saturday
September 11, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire & Judy Shire
Naicam & Prince Albert : At one time it seem that nearly every car on the road was a model
"A" and there were a lot of good reasons for their enormous popularity.
Today we take a look a two remarkable versions of this vintage vehicle.

W’s
Vision of Ownership Society: Wrong choice, Wrong direction and Wrong leadership
- Saturday
September 11, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Prince Albert
: The American public has perhaps one of the most stark choices for a democracy like
theirs. The polarasation and confrontational attitude is wider and deeper than seen
during my lifetime and the consequences will affect the whole world.

Spacemen
south of Tisdale
- Wednesday
September 8, 2004
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : When
I drive down the highway my mind often drifts off to the topic on the radio or to
other times and places. I was more than a hundred yards by this scene before I realised
that spacemen are not an every day sight along highway 35.
