Barbadian Murders down by 9% yet Barbados Lawmen still need more Cops
2012-01-06 05:24:00
Police are short-staffed in Barbados, any marketing analyst straight from UWI can detect it without even a poll, it is equally obvious to a blatant degree how these same officers who endangers themselves do not earn reciprocal wages to the level of risk undertaken. Pay cops better and crime will reduce further, while Barbados had ...

DIGITAL BORDER CROSS
2012-01-04 18:58:00
In an obvious sign of the times The Guardian reports how Canadian citizen, Martin Reisch, was able to successfully cross over into the United States using an iPad that displayed scanned version of his passport. As the story goes, Martin had forgotten his physical passport at home, two-hours back in Montreal. It was a longshot, he admits, but after telling border agents about how he was delivering Christmas gifts for his friend's kids and showing them the digital document, it was a go. Granted, it probably won't happen all the time, it was great for Mr. Reisch to know that his scanned version went a long way. He's even got hopes about it officially being instated:

Indian inflation will rise, and its exports will slow, since so many of them go to China and Europe, in the first place. But what if ...

FOTOGRAFARE IL CANADA
2011-11-22 10:35:00
Una delle mie passioni sempre stata la fotografia.Con risultati per me sempre piacevoli e soddisfacenti. Certo, se il soggetto particolarmente bello, anche un dilettante riesce a scattare un capolavoro. Questo succede quasi sempre con gli scorci panoramici mozzafiato offerti dal paesaggio canadese.Un tempo usavo un apparecchio reflex, nulla a che vedere con le piccole macchinette digitali di oggi, tanto comode da tenere in tasca e usare con prontezza. La tua creativit ormai non entra pi in giuoco ed i risultati sono s immediati ma spesso piatti e senza estro vitale.E siccome durante i miei viaggi scattavo centinaia di foto al giorno, ricorrevo alle diapositive dal costo pi contenuto delle stampe su carta fotografica. Di fatto per non rivediamo pi i nostri reportage fotografici da anni, vuoi per mancanza di tempo e spazio richiesti per montare schermo e proiettore, etc.Ma veniamo a oggi: abbiamo acquistato un apparecchietto che scannerizza diapositive e negativi con risulta...
State Mortgage Market in Canada: Self Denial?
2011-11-20 23:23:00
Canadians are increasingly concerned about the increasing debt of their fellow citizens, according to a new survey.The Canadian Association of Accredited Mortgage Professionals (CAAMP) produced the findings in its annual State of the Residential Mortgage Market in Canada report after surveying 2,000 online respondents.  About half the respondents were homeowners.Respondents were asked to rank their agreement on a scale of 10 on various issues relating to housing and mortgages, and the highest score, 7.98, was for the statement “as a whole, Canadians have too much debt.” Almost one-half, 46%, gave a rating of nine or 10, showing very strong agreement with the statement. (I talked about rising consumer debt levels in a recent post)The response to those surveyed was more mixed when asked if the Canadian market was in a bubble currently. The average score was 6.07 out of 10, with 46% of responses being closer to a neutral score of 5 or 6.But while there might be some concern about ...

2011-08-24 23:30:00
During the mid 19th century, Robert McLaughlin, a farmer by trade, self taught himself the art of carriage making. His first project was a horse drawn sleigh fashioned from a picture he saw in an old catalog. This guest post was brought to you by Kanetix.ca Get the cheapest auto insurance quotes today. His second project was another sleigh for a neighbor who saw the first sleigh as it was being made. From this humble beginning, McLaughlin learned how to fashion wood, iron and leather to design and make horse drawn wagons and carriages. Carriage making eventually grew into several branches throughout Canada, starting in Oshawa, Ontario, known as The Company. McLaughlin had three sons. John went on to earn a degree in chemistry and founded the Canada Dry Company. The other two sons, Sam and George, became partners in the McLaughlin Carriage Company. After a ride in the horseless carriage of the company bookkeeper, the brothers began pursuing an engine they could mount into a car...
Golf: A Good Drive Gets You to Canada
2011-07-13 16:48:00
A ten-hour road trip from New York to New Brunswick, Canada to play golf and experience differences in culture had the makings of a fun adventure but is this foreign country really foreign? Driving through Maine past border crossing into Atlantic Canada was exciting as I have never experienced leaving the U.S.A. by automobile. The scenery is beautiful yet monotonous on both sides of the border and there aren't many exits along the way. Even my GPS periodically lost its signal until it closed in on the City of Fredericton. Crowne Plaza Lord Beaverbrook Hotel I felt relieved to finally arrive at our destination, the Crowne Plaza Lord Beaverbrook, a business hotel with comfortable amenities located near legislative buildings, museums and lots of outdoor dining; free concerts are also provided during the season.

ON CANADA READS...
2011-02-08 01:38:00
Well, I was the first book voted off of the Canada Reads competition today, and I'll admit that it stings a bit more than I thought it would. But, in the end I am really proud of the accomplishment of making it to the final 5. It's a great sign for the future of graphic novels in this country, and their continued acceptance mainstream literary circles on a whole.The truth is Essex County would never have been nominated if not for all the brilliant Canadian cartoonists who laid the ground work for such recognition over the last couple of decades. Dave Sim, Seth, Chester Brown, Julie Doucet and so many others not only inspired me, but a whole generation of cartoonist that will continue to push our beloved medium into the spotlight.I'm proud to be part of such a great tradition of Canadian cartoonists, and continue to be inspired by the likes of Darwyn Cooke, Mariko and Jillian Tamaki, Kate Beaton and so many other great talents.And, a big thanks to Sara Quin for her impassioned de...

Bears vs. Bills In Canada

A loss to a win-less team would be devastating, as quoted by John Crist on The Bear Report.The last time the Bears played Buffalo was in 2006 where we gave them a beat-down 40-7 as they headed to SB XLI that year.  Well, we'll get to see further proof of the Bears sliding downward from 2006 on should they loose to Buffalo on Sunday.I am expecting the Bears to win this game however.  We've had a bye-week to get healed up and well rested.  The coaching staff has also had time to thoroughly evaluate the areas of opportunity where improvement is needed.  If the Bears loose, then nothing more would need not be said other than my usual mantra "JERRY...
