"Manitoba snowfall amount rare for October

Winnipeg had a lot of snow dumped on it Friday.

Rob Paola, a meteorologist with Environment Canada, said 10 centimetres of snow fell across the city Friday, with most coming between 6 p.m. and midnight.

He said southern Manitoba doesn't often see such large amounts of snow this early in October.

"It is unusual. It has happened though, on a couple of occasions," Paola said yesterday. "But it's unusual to see this much snow this early."

"Wind turbine in Sheffield broken by wind for second time

Blade on a wind turbine in Sheffield has broken in strong winds for the second time in 15 months.

Manufacturers of the 190ft high turbine, one of three owned by Sheffield University, are now investigating the damage at the site close to the city's Parkway link road to the M1.

A blade on the same turbine was broken 15 months ago and residents who live close to the site at Catcliffe, near Rotherham, have expressed fears that they could pose a danger to local people.

Martin Oldfield said : "I'm worried about them from a safety point of view as they are quite close to the road and a supermarket where a lot of people go.

"There are workmen up there now starting work on repairing it but now that it's happened a second time clearly there is a serious issue.

"There was one bright side - as soon as the blade snapped off the TV signal instantly improved and I could see all my programmes properly again.""

"USA Today to post 17% drop in circulation

NEW YORK - USA Today expects to report the largest decline in circulation in its 27-year history, threatening its No. 1 position among U.S. dailies as the growth of online news and the slump in travel pummel the newspaper.

While most large dailies are struggling to hold on to print subscribers and newsstand sales, USA Today is being hurt by a drop in traffic at airports and hotels, the newspaper's mainstay. It also increased the price of single copies to $1 from 75 cents last December.

In a memo to staff Friday, USA Today publisher David Hunke said the average circulation at the Gannett Co.-owned newspaper was 1.88 million from April through September. That marks a loss of 398,000 copies, or 17 per cent, from the same period the year before at the newspaper, which is printed on weekdays only.

The figures for USA Today and other newspapers are due to be released Oct. 26 by the Audit Bureau of Circulations. The decline was reported earlier by Editor&Publisher."

I was born in Catcliffe village.

Some time back they expanded the village down the hill & onto the flood plain to the East.

Two, perhaps three years back, the flood plain did what flood plains do, (flooded), & with it lots of homes.

Strangely, it wasn’t the fact they had built on the flood plain that was blamed.

"Barney Frank: “Traitor at large”

WASHINGTON – Rep. Barney Frank, an openly gay member of Congress, says he’d rather see gay rights supporters lobbying their elected officials than marching in Washington this weekend, calling the demonstration “a waste of time at best.”

Frank said in an interview with The Associated Press that he considers such demonstrations to be “an emotional release” that does little to pressure Congress.

“The only thing they’re going to be putting pressure on is the grass,” the Massachusetts Democrat said Friday.

Thousands of gay men and women are expected to gather for Sunday’s National Equality March."

*"The "small people", the "rank and file", the "loyal soldiers" of the narcissist - his flock, his nation, his employees - they pay the price. The disillusionment and disenchantment are agonizing. The process of reconstruction, of rising from the ashes, of overcoming the trauma of having been deceived, exploited and manipulated - is drawn-out. It is difficult to trust again, to have faith, to love, to be led, to collaborate. Feelings of shame and guilt engulf the erstwhile followers of the narcissist. This is his sole legacy: a massive post-traumatic stress disorder."

Soooo, where are all the Hurricanes ??

Is 'Cane' season not winding down ?? (Mid Sept is the peak)

Or perhaps the media is just not reporting on them ?? Ya, that's it.

Or maybe ..

There are currently no active tropical cyclones in the Atlantic or Eastern Pacific.

Meanwhile, Al Gore has dropped the [hurricane frequency] related slide in his traveling PowerPoint show.

More like 'Traveling Road Show' .

Pravda warns America about Obama Marxist danger .

[The newspaper proceeds to point out that Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin warned Obama and U.S. Congress not to follow the path to Marxism. ‘Apparently, even though we suffered 70 years of this Western sponsored horror show, we know nothing, as foolish, drunken Russians, so let our “wise” Anglo-Saxon fools find out the folly of their own pride.’]

[These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more then ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear volumes. Should we congratulate them?] Pravda

[In what organizers said was a rarity, Gore took half a dozen questions from journalists, including one from Phelim McAleer, an Irish filmmaker who asked Gore to address nine errors in his film identified by a British court in 2007.

Gore responded that the court ruling supported the showing of his film in British schools. When McAleer tried to debate further, his microphone was cut off by the moderators.]

Could show his film in schools as long as the students were told before hand; 'What you are about to see is political propaganda'.

A comprehensive demographic study of more than 200 countries finds that there are 1.57 billion Muslims of all ages living in the world today, representing 23% of an estimated 2009 world population of 6.8 billion.

"Thanksgiving reflections"

The link below is to a National Review editorial concerning Obama's recent Nobel "Prize". It pretty much summarizes what I think of Obama and the award. I would only add that if Obama had any concern at all for America, he would recognize that the award is being given to him in an effort to control him. The Norwegians practically said as much. That the Norwegians would think to influence him by appealing to his ego shows, I think, how little they actually admire him.
