A hard working Saskatchewan farm family from Endeavour, Sk. is under investigation by the province for allowing their kids to work in their on-farm poultry business. My comment on CBC.Ca was:
”Buy them an X-Box instead, and have them blast zombies all day long. That’s better. And don’t forget to teach them about how the Socialist dream will raise them to great heights!”

A bug can turn you into a vegetarian, or at least make you swear off red meat. Doctors across the nation are seeing a surge of sudden meat allergies in people bitten by a certain kind of tick.
This bizarre problem was only discovered a few years ago but is growing as the ticks spread from the Southwest and the East to more parts of the United States. In some cases, eating a burger or a steak has landed people in the hospital with severe allergic reactions.
Few patients seem aware of the risk, and even doctors are slow to recognize it. As one allergist who has seen 200 cases on New York’s Long Island said, “Why would someone think they’re allergic to meat when they’ve been eating it their whole life?”
The culprit is the Lone Star tick, named for Texas, a state famous for meaty barbecues. The tick is now found throughout the South and the eastern half of the United States.
At the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, “I see two to three new cases every week,” said Dr. Scott Commins, who with a colleague, Dr. Thomas Platts-Mills, published the first paper tying the tick to the illness in 2011.

“Thank God for the Atom Bomb”
The New Republic – August 1981
by Paul Fussell
Many years ago in New York I saw on the side of a bus a whiskey ad I’ve
remembered all this time. It’s been for me a model of the short poem, and
indeed I’ve come upon few short poems subsequently that exhibited more
poetic talent.
The ad consisted of two eleven-syllable lines of “verse,” thus:
In life, experience is the great teacher.
In Scotch, Teacher’s is the great experience.
For present purposes we must jettison the second line (licking our lips, to be
sure, as it disappears), leaving the first to register a principle whose banality
suggests that it enshrines a most useful truth.
I bring up the matter because,
writing on the forty-second anniversary of the atom-bombing of Hiroshima
and Nagasaki, I want to consider something suggested by the long debate
about the ethics, if any, of that ghastly affair. Namely, the importance of
experience, sheer, vulgar experience, in influencing, if not determining, one’s
views about that use of the atom bomb.
The experience I’m talking about is having to come to grips, face to face,
with an enemy who designs your death. The experience is common to those
in the marines and the infantry and even the line navy, to those, in short,
who fought the Second World War mindful always that their mission was, as
they were repeatedly assured, “to close with the enemy and destroy him.”
Destroy, notice: not hurt, frighten, drive away, or capture.”

Of course, the prat caused this because he wouldn’t deal with Maliki and withdraw from victory. There’s an obvious lesson here.

The tense change makes the meaning correct.

Why is there always a big screen tv?
The nearly two thirds of first nations
who haven’t disclosed their finances are receiving sternly worded “reminder letters”. Yeah I’m as shocked as you are that the kids gloves were deployed here. Meanwhile if us regular folk didn’t disclose our financials to the CRA every year I’m guessing we’d get a little different treatment.

Manitoba Public Insurance is finding creative ways to get the attention of people who owe the agency money.
The Crown corporation recently tapped into Facebook to make contact with a man who owes $9,600. To get his attention, it created a fake account with a steamy photo of a woman in a bikini.
When the man clicked on the message, it opened to reveal a summons to appear in court.

Here’s a thought: no more checks until the reserves disclose the finances. If we’re footing the bill we deserve to see where the money is going. And if they won’t show us where the money goes, they shouldn’t get any.

“Good grief!
From time to time, the world becomes corporately mad.
While we have been told not to bother with a dead, dying, or imaginary G-d, now might be a good time to rethink that proposition. Sometimes, there is nothing else but a prayer for mercy.”

“Globalism as Sacrificial Crisis: Jean-Pierre Dupuy’s Mark of the Sacred”
“Gregory Copley has argued in his recent study of Un-Civilization (2014) that the global human arrangement, a creeping improvisation of the last three or four centuries, nowadays has outlived its jerry-rigged semi-functionality so that it totters on the verge of a radical spontaneous reconstruction whose survivors will have experienced it as nothing less than a catastrophe.”

The Liberal party have a survey up regarding Justin’s ‘Transparency Act’. This is only available to those who on their mailing list, diehard supporters like me.
http://www.liberal.ca/poll-the-transparency-act/?utm_source=liberal&utm_medium=email&utm_content=transparency&utm_campaign=mass_onboarding_2
At the end of the survey you can add comments. They say that Justin will read them all.
I suggested that JT lead by example and volunteer to a forensic audit of the $80,000 a year he spent on travel BEFORE he was anointed leader. His Montreal riding is a 2 hour drive away from Ottawa. Where was he going and why ???
I also brought up the fact that JT and an aide flew to Sudbury on our dime to attend a $1,200 a plate fundraiser that he never disclosed.
Justin should be sharing a cell with Alison and the other crooks.
