Fixed it.

I think it comes down to Chara. If the Canucks can control him they are the better team. If he dominates the slot it will be trouble.

I am constantly getting Choice Hotels ads that actually prevent me from seeing the text of what I am trying to read or type. The ad scrolls with the screen so the only way to access what is below it is to sequentially refresh until a new ad is presented that doesn't intrude. This really sucks.

If the Christians could be depended upon to not interject their ideas that would be fine, but my experience is they are incapable of not doing just what the Christian girl did at the cerimony in question. FUCK I HATE IT WHEN THE ADVERTIZING IS SPREAD ACROSS MY SCREEN SO I CAN'T SEE WHAT I'M TYPING. FUCK YOU CHOICE HOTELLS! FUCK YOU1

Would you be OK if prayers to Satan were offered up at similar ceremonies paid for with your taxes?

no it's not. (that's like saying that science is a 'belief' system - it's an investigation of reality as it is) bullshit. Atheism is not an investigation. It is a belief that god does not exist. It is not a belief system. It is a conclusion based upon evidence or more accurately, a complete lack of evidence to support the null hypothesis. The key difference between that and and superstitious belief systems is that virtually all atheists are willing to change their minds given conflicting evidence.

oaching courses taught by CSPA tend to focus on the technical aspects of skydiving, while bio-mechanics, nutrition, sports psychology, conflict resolution, long term development, etc. tend to be covered in theory course taught by the Coaching Association of Canada. lol Been a while since you took a course, eh Rob. CSPA course facilitators have been teaching the theoretical and technical aspects of the course in a blended session for several years now. We were the first sport to do so under the CAC. The biomechanics section is referred to as the "principles of movement" as discussed by Peter above.

Huh? WTF?

I will give the "Rhonda Style" some grudging respect (one man, a cape, a sword vs one bull), but will not lament the passing of the ritual of the man on the horse taunting the beast while his friends repeatedly stab and wear down his prey.

Whining about that icing call is lame. The players weren't because they didn't catch it. The linesman will miss that call 9 times out of 10. Really glad the Canucks get some time to rest now as the length of the previous two series is starting to mount. Now if Tampa can just prolong the other series.

I guess that makes Christianity a rather minor religion if you exclude the Catholics.

WRONG! When we invite royals over we pay to roll out the red carpet, but that is also true when we invite dignitaries from lower Elbonia.

OK, I have been looking for that little snippet of knowledge ever since they came out with those f@*&ing round laces. Thank you.

Dave are you suggesting that each and every group on a large aircraft stop and check the spot before climbing out? Sounds like a good way to ensure that the last tandem out doesn't need to check; they know they are long because everyone else took so fucking long.

Three words: Post Rapture Looting! Fuck Ya!

The big issue for me is brightness. I can read to a 60 watt bulb, but I cannot to a 60 watt "replacement" cfl. I think the economics of them is much more tenuous here in NA where our meter rates are much lower than in Europe. The hazardous waste thing is still a big concern.

Awesome! RON. Oh RONNN.

I disagree. The policy of the Nazi hunters has always been "We will hunt you to your grave." The sentence would not have rehabilitation in mind, but rather a message to future war criminals: NEVER TO FORGIVE! NEVER TO FORGET!

I disagree. Our system designed with stability in mind. 42 percent has always been majority territory. It was good enough to give Cretian, Trudeau and Mulroney majorities. We now have a government with a clear direction. In four years if People are unhappy there will be no question of who is to blame. The fact that Block is destroyed and the Liberals are decimated shows that the system isboth dynamic and responsive.

I hope you are right about the NDP support not actually turning into seats enough to unseat the Libs, but I am not sure. They will pick up 20 seats in Quebec at a minimum. The polls are reporting stronger support in BC where they came second in many ridings last time. The decision looks to be made in Toronto proper where the Tories usually run third. If they can pick up 10 seats in TO they will all be at the expense of the Libs. Liberal seats in non-GTA Ontario will also be big. There was a story the other day about NDP gains in Edmonton, but living in the prime "vulnerable" Tory riding I can tell you I have yet to see a worker or a flier from anyone. And while this is all going on CBC chief correspondent, news anchor and all around news head honcho, Peter Mansbridge is in London covering a wedding.

Or he could have said, "Hey Billy-bob, put that fucking doughnut down and get that bitch off my back, willya?"

For ages conventional wisdom has held that whoever captures the political centre wins the election. However we seem to be heading down the same road as the yanks with both sides abandoning the centre. Traditionally the Liberals move left in opposition and right in power, while the Tories do the opposite. The Tories have certainly compromised left fiscally over the last two minority governments but have moved even more right socially. The Libs have not taken advantage of this but abandoned the centre completely to the point that their platform is not any different than the socialist NDP. It should not be a surprise that the mass of undecided voters on the left are going for the real thing. What is going to happen is still up in the air. At the moment of truth will people actually vote NDP, or will they opt for the safety of the devils they know? Will the social media, vote mob driven 18-30 year olds (certainly NDP biased) actually show up at the polls? The difference between left vote splitting caused Tory gains and surging NDP driven Tory losses is probably less that 2% of the vote. It looks certain now that the NDP will supplant the Liberals as the main opposition. Whether they can stay there is another question altogether. Jack Layton is not young, nor in good health. If he is replaced by, say, deputy leader Libby Davies they could fall right back to 20% for the next election. On the other hand we may see a situation like the US where moderates of all flavours find themselves on the sidelines. If that happens the Liberals will go the way of the UK Liberal party.

Yes it was excessive. The first strike was unnecessary, the second one was a deliberate attempt to injure. The woman was clearly interfering with the cop doing (apparently) his job, but attempting to deliver a roundhouse to the face was neither self defense nor the appropriate method of restraining her. This is particularly true due to the fact that his partner was right there. The punch looked to me like it was driven by rage. We cannot allow those we entrust to keep the peace to be motivated by rage. This cop needs anger management training. If someone punches you in the shoulder you are legally allowed to punch them in the face. However that is not acceptable on any properly administered police force. The cop may not retaliate with a punch. A punch is only acceptable if it is necessary and appropriate to bring the situation under control. Retaliation is not in their mandate, punnishment is not in their mandate. It is the purvue of the courts.

The Tri-lateral commission is behind this. You can bet on it.

I suspect there will be legal action demanding that the local authorities show cause for detaining these people. Correct me if I am wrong but if you sue for violating rights does that not bypass the local courts and and go directly to the federal realm?
