    Ebola case confirmed by CDC in Dallas

    It's already been said here: why are flights coming from africa to north america? should be none. and i'll listen more to the nurse's union when they start washing their hands when they walk into my room and don't wear their hospital issue outside.

    Buy or Rent Water Heater?

    i don't have gas in-house or else i would have rented that. at less than the price of a good meal a month, i wouldn't spend much time thinking about the buy vs rent issue. and a gas one needs a certified plumber/gas guy to install/repair. plus i'd be the boss. i don't mind letting somebody...

    Anbarandy and those waiting for Olivia Chow miracle are running out of time

    i agree she got bad advice. she's a nice lady who appears to have no plan about anything. and i doubt if the well-educated chinese vote on ethnic lines. and would really doubt if any of them are waiting for public transit. hahaha

    Single Speed Bikes

    if your rear dropouts are a slot, u could just pick a cog, shorten the chain to suit and there u go. if it's a newer bike where that wheel position adjustment is gone, this idea won't work.

    police bust 'messianic' prostitution ring

    I don't see the forced part. They joined, they believed. There's all kinds of wacky cults (organized religion being one) that I don't subscribe to. But if you want to, well, go ahead.

    Buy or Rent Water Heater?

    I pay 13 bucks a month for 60 gallon electric. i rent so i don't need to think about it. if there's a leak, they send 3 guys who replace it, and take the old one away. my wife can call them. one less thing for me to worry about. if i could rent my fridge, i would do that too. nothing up...

    Tony Stewart hits, kills driver in sprint car race

    that outlaw sport is full of wrecks. that's what makes it exciting. from what i read and hear, tony's gunning the engine had the expected result (tail swingout). most likely he was just trying to throw dirt on the young man. and of course the now-dead driver shouldn't have gotten out. let's...

    Peter MacKay In Hot Water....

    reading what he said: "too few apply", sounds pretty simple. then he crawled out on a limb to guess why. he's probably right. but politically he should have declined to guess why.

    treadmill suggestions for the home or.....

    ahhh. the usual question from someone who just wants to get in shape. sure, get a treadmill. get some dumbells. start using them. if after a month you're still doing something then expand your repertoire. give yourself a goal. weekly miles or minutes. number of reps or sets. u will feel...

    Group Homes, Doug Ford, and would you want a group home next to your house?

    from news reports it seems obvious that it was opened under the umbrella of helping autistic kids but others have been brought in. also stated was that house values nearby have dropped substantially. who will compensate those home-owners?

    Yale threatening girl with expulsion if she does not gain weight

    i can't imagine how it is the schools business if she's skinny. even dangerously so. others can be concerned, but the school? no. and altho people that thin look unhealthy and make us worried, perhaps a medical test would be a better way to gauge state of health.

    Change every password, everywhere....Heartbleed Bug allows hackers to bypass HTTPS.

    and there's plenty of mis-information on the news services. at a minimum, after they implement the fix which only came available 2 days ago, we need to change the passwords on all important accounts. every account would be better but some of us have way to many. so...email and banks first...

    Marois embarassed by flailing senile hysterical has been Quebecois actress

    the proble is very real but we cannot talk about it at the political level. the old lady had to drag in "McGill". Why couldn't she just say "Islamic". Cultures clash. that's what they do.
