Tim's Tip of the Day

 If you live in the Perigord area
and remember the Cote family who lived there some years ago and raised a family
in the area, his brother would like to hear from you. Send you e-mail to me and I will pass it along. |

Kevin's
find of the day

 Wheelchair bank
robbery fails (pdf) The
Miami Herald carried this story but so did many others as Larry Miller
lost the use of his legs in a bank robbery attempt in 1985 and last week was caught
immediately after attempting a robbery at Miami's Pan American Bank. |

 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.

 The Greenwater
Report- Monday
September 27, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : This week's report is interesting but it is hard to pay attention
with so many wonderful fall pictures. A visit to Elfros and Foam Lake with high school
provincial golf tournament on the side.

 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

September 24, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

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

at the Tisdale Mall is certainly worth a visit and the folks will give you an opportunity
to handle their unique collection of pets.

September 24, 2004
by : Rob Shanahan

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.

 Tornados

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.

September 21, 2004
by: Gerald Crawford

- 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.

September 20, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire

Park mall on Wednesday night this Toyota took a tumble. This story includes a QuickTime

September 11, 2004

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.
