We're staying at the Candy Cane, which we just love. Since we have Disneyland Deluxe AP's which block out the 4th, we'll spend the 4th at DCA and hopefully see all that we want to see there. If not, we'll have to buy another ticket to DCA. I'm kinda hoping we don't get it all in (don't tell DH) so that we can go back in the next day or two. There are several places I'd like to eat at... LOL. We really haven't made many plans. We might try and do the Fantasmic Buffet again but will probably decide the night before. I know it will be hot and crowded and we're not really used to that because we generally go during off-season. But it will be so nice to be able to be in the park late at night! Our favorite time of day. Can't wait!

The most advanced typographic work from around the world, from one-person experimental studios to university-based research groups.
It has been six years since the publication of the internationally successful Type in Motion, the first book to present an overview of animated digital typography. Six years is a long time in the digital world, and creative innovation in motion graphics continues unabated.
Over eighty projects are presented here in detail and arranged into five chapters that address particular issues facing today's designers. "Identifying" looks at kinetic typography's role in branding through media such as television identities, program titles, and transition sequences. The delivery of information about a product, service, or event through a typographic message is considered in "Informing." Stitching together word, image, and sound to create stories and establish a context, "Storytelling" addresses issues of narrative, in which the designer establishes the framework but the user creates the story. "Traveling" focuses on the user, from Web site navigation to chat rooms. "Speculating" features a wide spectrum of experimental projects in type and letter design, exploring new ideas, functions, and methods of communication.
Type in Motion 2 raises visual communication and motion graphics to new levels and captures the true spirit of innovation and imagination in the contemporary design scene. Over 300 illustrations in color and black and white.

Wasted (by Rylan Hunter)
What is it you see as you hurry past? The outline of my ribs from meals pieced together out of your scraps? I wonder if you see the shadows beneath my eyes marking the absence of sleep that lasts longer than the time it takes for my dreams to spiral into nightmares that leave me retching on my knees. Or … do you see the smooth skin that makes your hands move restlessly at your sides as you shuffle closer. Do you lie to yourself and pretend to see lust for you in my eyes? I wish I knew what it is you see, because I know … you don't see me.

The council meeting began with a discussion on community councils. In Mayor Wall's State of the City address he said that he would like to see community councils come to fruition. The city already has an ordinance for community councils, but has not enacted them. Michael Stott, a resident of Taylorsville who works for Salt Lake City's Mayor's Office as a liaison for their community councils, volunteered to rewrite the ordinance and give input. He came to the meeting and answered questions on the different ways the city can do community councils - either as an advisory body to the city, or as a non-profit independent group. His suggestion for the city was to operate community councils as advisory bodies. He also suggested having the councils districted - one for each of the five city council districts. The city council decided to consider the new ordinance after the budget is passed mid June.
The other item on the agenda was discussion of the budget. The council reviewed the revenue in the 2012-2013 budget.
No citizens spoke during the open citizen comment time.

Unanswered: Progress Dates to SQL Server
I am extracting data from a Progress 9.1d Database to SQL Server 2000 using OPENQUERY using OpenLink Pro Lite ODBC 9.1d . I am encountering problems with Dates.
FROM OPENQUERY(LinkedServer,'SELECT DateA FROM Table1')
I get the following error:
Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 10, Line 1
Error Converting data type DBTYPE_DBDATE to datetime
This only occurs if the date on the progress side is not null or not a recognised format. IE 0006-12-25
I have tried to handle this on the SQL Server side but nothing works as I beleive the failure is in the transition before I can handle it.
Could anyone tell me what statement I need on the progress side to either convert this to a recognised format or to a character which I can convert once in SQL Server.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

LighterLife has successfully helped diabetics lose 50% more weight than other methods* and with experts saying that the soaring rate of type 2 diabetes is being fuelled by obesity, we know that losing the excess weight can be life saving!
Want to know how?
Losing excess weight has led to the reversal of the condition as blood sugar levels return to a level that no longer requires medication.
Is losing weight difficult?
At LighterLife we understand that achieving significant weight loss is difficult for anyone with type 2 diabetes (diabetics have been shown to achieve 50% less weight loss than those without type 2 diabetes).
How do we know LighterLife can help?
We carried out an audit last year which followed 355 type 2 diabetes sufferers as they completed 12 weeks on the LighterLife Total programme. What we found is those who took part in the study achieved an average excess weight loss of 46%. We published a press release Type II Diabetes can be reversed by low calorie diets in November 2011 that goes into much more detail.
What was the verdict before the research?
Before our audit it was believed that the symptoms of type 2 diabetes would continue to get worse unless bariatric surgery took place. This has now been disproved in a study carried out by E.L.Lim et al in 2011 which found type 2 diabetes reversible by reducing dietary energy intake, giving hope to type 2 diabetes sufferers that their condition can be reversed.
Why is this relevant to me?
As many as one in 70 people in Britain suffer from type 2 diabetes and Diabetes UK have highlighted that 850,000 adults with diabetes haven't even been diagnosed, this is a huge number of people, missing out on life saving health checks. The figures released this week suggest that most people will have a friend or family member who has the condition but doesn't know they do.
Why not talk to your friends and family about type 2 diabetes, make sure they're aware that someone can have it for a number of years without realising it. Risk factors for Type 2 diabetes include being overweight, having a large waist and being physically inactive.
Visit our client forum Talking LighterLife or visit our LighterLife Facebook community to read, in our clients own words, how the programme has benefitted their health.
Diabetes UK and Bupa are doing a series of healthy lifestyle roadshows, visiting 50 locations over the coming months, to help identify people at high risk.
If you'd like to find out more about how LighterLife can help you lose 50% more weight visit the LighterLife Website.

Israel needs to "get over" the question of whether US President Barack Obama loves it and focus on finding a solution to the Palestinian conflict, former ambassador to Israel Martin Indyk said on Wednesday.Indyk took part in a highprofile panel discussing the state of Israeli-US ties at the Israeli Presidential Conference in Jerusalem, a discussion that was essentially boiled down to one question: Does Obama, in his kishkas, love Israel.

This bright and spacious apartment offers a spectacular panoramic view of the ocean, town and mountains. Fully-furnished with an open-concept floor plan, it provides a relaxing environment for those looking for a quiet get-away. It offers a well-equipped full kitchen, cozy sitting area, and a king-size bed that can be easily converted to two twins. Patios to the front and side of the casita provide a great place for morning coffee, outdoor dining, and evening sunset viewing.
Casa Calera is perfect for those who are seeking a Mexican town experience that also offers privacy and solitude. Located on a hillside just above the barrio, it is off the grid for all except those few who live in the immediate vicinity. Hours passed in solitude and silence are often finally interrupted by the sounds of chickens crowing, music playing or dogs barking below, the vital sounds of Mexican life.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, the hills behind Casa Calera offer a variety of hiking paths in the unique desert landscape. If a beach sounds more appealing, great walking and world-class surfing beaches are only minutes away by car.
This small town of less than 8,000 people hosts an international population of residents and visitors who paint, sculpt, build, write, surf, perform, run businesses and enjoy nature. From Casa Calera it is just a 20-minute walk into town for fine dining, gallery browsing, shopping, and a stop at the local bookstore.

We arrived in Todos Santos quite literally by accident in 1995. Vacationing from Portland, Oregon we had planned to cycle the Cape Region over a three-week period. On the second day Janet fell off her bike and broke her arm. The nearest town was Todos Santos, so that is where we spent the next three weeks. We fell in love with the town and moved here full time a year later. After renting for 10 years we built a home and included a rental unit with it. Janet owned the local bookstore, El Tecolote, until 2011, and Gary is a retired builder/carpenter. Both are sixty-five years old.
In 2011 health issues dictated that Gary enter a care facility. Janet and Gary moved to San Miguel de Allende where such a facility is available, though Janet returns to Todos Santos for regular visits. Kate Lewis, the new owner of the bookstore, now lives in the owners' unit of Casa Calera and manages the rental unit.
Janet Howey purchased this apartment in 2007
It is easy to list the likeable things about Todos Santos. Physical beauty, small-town friendliness, unhurried pace, comfortable bi-cultural relations, wonderful restaurants, an evergrowing arts community. But in reality we did what so many foreigners do when they come to Todos Santos. We fell in love with it, and we don't exactly know why. It is an affair of the heart that transcends any specific reasons we can give.
We live just outside the barrio. Our views are spectacular-the best in town, and the largely uninhabited hills rise up behind us and offer wonderful hiking. But we are still close enough to the barrio to feel its vitality without being in the middle of it where the noise sometimes exceeds the North American comfort level. A fifteen-minute walk gets us to grocery shopping, restaurants and galleries.
Thank you guys for the excellent stay. Everything was just super and I really liked your comfortable bed.
Looking forward to stay with you again.
i echo all the positive things that other reviewers have said here. i just spent three nights at casa calera with my family (two boys aged 2 and 4) and had a wonderful time. the casa sits atop a hill about a mile from town where you can see the pacific and town below. though it's not in the center of town it is still a convenient location. a five minute walk brings you to a market where you can find everything you'll need, fifteen minute walk takes you into town where you can feast on delicious tacos or shop for local crafts, and a ten minute drive takes you to secluded beaches bordered by swaying palms and rocky, cactus strewn mountains. the hosts were also friendly, helpful and responsive. i just got back home last night and i miss todos santos so much. can't wait to go back and will make casa calera my home when i do.
This little casita was very clean and well stocked. Comfortable and cool. Nice patios and close to town. Great price. Definitely will stay here again.
Absolute privacy for two . A wall of windows with great views of mountains and oceans.
A long room open room with Kitchen at one end ,bedroom at the other end ,couch in between. A good size bathroom with walk in shower .
A car is a must for getting to beaches ,town and turtle release.......unless you like to walk .....did not see anyone doing that.
Our host were available to answer questions.
We very much enjoyed our week-long stay at Casa Calera, especially the views out over the town and sea. Bring binoculars for getting a better look at the whales (there were lots of them during our end-of- December stay), as the ocean is probably about a mile away. I'd advise pre-loading google maps on your smartphone and closely following Janet's hand-drawn map for your first arrival - there aren't street signs up in that neighborhood. We had a Volkswagen compact sedan rental, which struggled a little on a couple of the parts, but it was do-able. A 4-wheel drive or something with higher clearance would not be out of place for getting to the house or on some surrounding roads (to the beach, for example), but a regular car will make it. Walkable to the "downtown," but you'll need a car to get to the beaches. The area around the house is so peaceful, just the occasional vehicle passing slowly by, and the dogs and lots of roosters as others have noted. The nearest roosters are about a block away, so more background noise than anything else. The neighbor dogs are very friendly (and poorly trained). A good grocery store is just down the hill, on the first paved street. The caretakers, who live in the upper unit, were very friendly and helpful. The unit is quite private as their home's entrance is up the hill. Not a fancy place, but very comfortable and we had a lovely stay.
Perfect place, studio provided everything needed. Enjoyed the views from the outside patio and the atmosphere of Todos Santos.

Violent clashes erupted in Syria in 2011 have found their way to the southwestern strategic Syrian city of Quneitra. A triangle of fire, the flames of which have spread through the east and south of Damascus, Lebanese borders and Mount Hermon. The flames of fire in Quneitra are fanned by the Israeli regime that fully supports the al-Nusra Front terrorist group in waging an all-out war on the Syrian government. Quneitra, the Triangle of Fire is the story of resistance of the Syrian army, members of the Lebanese resistance movement, Hezbollah, and Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) against terrorism and Zionism.
Narration: Since the onset of the war against Syria, the south forces have been engaging intelligence services, those who have left their traces from Al Jalil in north Israeli-occupied territories up to Jordan's borders. 70 kilometers away from Damascus, the capital city of Syria, this region borders the Golan Heights which have been under the boots of Israeli troops since the 1967 Arab–Israeli War. Here is a strategic triangle. The flames of this triangle lick the east and south of Damascus, Lebanese borders and Mount Hermon. The summit of this mountain cluster straddles the border between Syria and Lebanon. It's also the buffer zone between Syria and the Israeli-occupied territories. The southern slopes of Mount Hermon extend to the Israeli-occupied portion of the Golan Heights. The Israeli regime has built a wall known as "Jedar Attayyeb" in this strategic region in a bid to proceed into the east and west of Ghouta.
But above all, it aimed to gnaw away at south Lebanon and Hezbollah in particular.
Whatever happens in Ghalamon, Hamas and Al-Qusayr would have hard repercussions for Haifa and Tel Aviv, a fact that galvanized the Israelis into shaking hands with those involved in the war on Syria. Since the very begging, it was clear that the Israeli regime was keen to have a hand on the war, despite all the efforts its officials made to seem impartial in this regard.
Their reactions have run the whole gamut from complete silences to revealing remarks, showing the depth of the regime's relations with the armed groups. Retaking the town of Al- Qusayr and its surrounding villages was a slap in the face of the Israel and the Nusra Front and changed the war equations in Syria. Tel Aviv aimed to proceed into Lebanese borders so as to interrupt Hezbollah's resistance activities by helping terrorist groups. It was here in this place where the battle began officially.
Narration: The Israeli regime instigated the armed groups in Quneitra to wage an all-out war on the Syrian government. They entered the villages around Al-Qusayr with the help of reinforcements swarming from Jordan's borders. An attack was mounted on the town of Majdoleyyi and Kodna Dam. The dam was the main aim of the Israeli regime which was seeking ways to increase the level of water in the Yarmouk River.
Given that the Israeli regime was unlikely to fulfill its aims in this region, the armed groups invaded the Quneitra Crossing, after the Israeli troops opened the roads running to the Golan Heights in Syria. But, their initial attempts ended in failure.
We are now at the Quneitra Crossing. Here is the last point where the Syrian Army is positioned. The armed groups have declared that they have taken this crossing, but as you see, the Syrian Army has still this strategic point under control. These positions are occupied by the Israeli regime. UN and Red Cross personnel are also present there. This area has been mined for a long time. The armed groups tried to infiltrate into this area but the Syrian army confronted them and pushed them back into the Israeli-occupied territories. Needless to say, they were helped by the Israeli Army when retreating from this area.
That hill is called "the Red Hill. There is also another hill before it.
What's that hill called?
It's called al-Sahi.
This barbed wire fence encircles the Syrian-occupied Golan Heights, a safe haven for the armed groups. The Israeli regime set up the fence to protect the armed groups shuttling between Barika and Beer Ajam.
Here on this hill, the positions of the Israeli Army are only a few meters away from the barbed wire fence.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Press TV correspondent: "Is this an Israeli position?"
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Syrain Soldier: "Yes, this occupied hill is called Abu al-Nadi. It's a place from where the Israeli soldiers can observe the whole area and where they can set up ambushes. In addition to logistic supports, the Israeli regime offers overt supports to the armed groups; these supports are besides field military hospitals. There is no doubt that the regime provides them with logistics and armaments."
Narration: We get closer and closer to the border areas – to be exact, to al-Qahtaniyah - where the armed groups have made some progress with the help and support of the Israeli Army. These groups owe their progress to the Israeli-made crossings.
-That's an Israeli tank.
-That's right. Zoom in on the tank.
-On the right side, there is a whole down the barbed wire. Yes, there's a whole.
Narration: We're now in the town of al-Qahtaniyah. Here is the town where the armed groups did their best to infiltrate into. Over thereare the Israeli-occupied lands and this is the border strip between the occupied and liberated lands. The armed groups tried to enter the area from this point. The armed groups' failure to enter the Quneitra Crossing enraged the Israeli regime and resulted in the dismissal of their commander,SalimIdris. He was replaced with Abdollah al-Bashir, a fugitive brigadier. The Israeli regime has acknowledged that al-Bashir has been trained in Tel Aviv to carry out missions against the Syrian government.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Abdollah al-Bashir, Fugitive brigadier: "The dismissal of Major General SalimIdris. The Supreme Military Council decided to appoint retired Brigadier Abdollah al-Bashir."
Narration: Al-Bashir had undergone treatment inside Israel. At the time, he was the commander of the opposition groups in south Syria but when the Supreme Military Council of the Free Army dismissed SalimIdris, he was appointed as the Chief Commander of the Free Army. The Israeli Army failed to hide the evacuation of the injured members of the armed groups to Israeli hospitals. The rescue teams are kept on standby nearby the villages the armed groups are fighting.
Narration: And rumors go around that a large number of injured terrorists are being evacuated to Israeli-occupied territories.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], An Injured Terrorist: "Some injured terrorists were transferred to the Israeli-occupied territories last year. I expected to be injured so as to enter Israeli. The Nusra Front, is not as bad as it's been portrayed by others. We were in touch with them there. They try to resolve the problems of the people because the Front is an Islamic organization."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Soldier: "They take those who get killed or injured and transfer them to the Israeli-occupied territories.… And they went to the Israeli-occupied territories. The Israeli regime has paved the way for them and even opened the crossing for them. The regime opened the crossing for them and they went to the Israeli-occupied territories. Yes, they went to the Israeli-occupied territories. They came from Israel when they invaded. The army expected them to enter from another way but they entered and exited from the Israeli crossing. This happens frequently in this region and the Israelis help them enter or exit from Jordan or Lebanon."
Narration: The Israeli regime paves the way for them and provides them with medical treatment and military training. Israeli helicopters, ambulances and hospitals are at their complete disposal when injured.
-Thank you so much.
-Bless you!
-God bless you! Thank you!
Narration: At that time, that kind of cooperation was revealed in a different way. The overt visit Netanyahu made to the injured at hospital and his talking with them was a clear sign for all that the armed group had never been alone and they had always had the Israeli support with them. At the time, the Israeli regime was increasing his support for the groups thorough many byways Israeli engineers had made. Through those byways, they could enter the Israeli-occupied territories well protected. Through those byways, they could move a large number of fighters to the Israeli-occupied territories for arming and training.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Syrian Soldier: "They entered from this strip. We were all here. The first file was killed here. Another group also came from there.
-It means that they came from two sides.
-Yes, from two sides."
Narration: With the growing number of the injured, the Israeli regime had no choice but to build a field hospital near the village of Sahita near the Golan Heights. And a major conflict in Jubata al-Khashb area and a hospital that accepted the injured and gives them basic treatment. Everyone in need of treatment was sent to hospitals in Safed and Al-Jalil. Communication equipment couldn't help the armed groups escape from the prying eyes of the Syrian soldiers. Therefore, the Israeli Army provided them with eavesdropping equipment. The equipment the occupying forces set up played a crucial role in the armed conflicts in Quneitra and its surrounding villages. In addition, the armed groups were covered by artillery fire when proceeding through the crossing. Under the auspices of the Israeli regime, the armed groups proceeded and hoisted up the Nusra flag. And then, they were guided to enter the ruined city and to proceed from there to Al-Hamidia, Al-Horriya and Al-Samedania, while their focus was on the strategic hills. But in the end, it was the Syrian Army that had all the hills under control.
- From the pine grove.
- From there?
- Yes, from the western pine grove which can be seen from down the road, from the crossing.
- They entered the Israeli-occupied territories and they returned from that place.
- Yes, the Soot Grove Crossing. This antenna is for Israeli espionage.
-Yes, a place for the Israelis to eavesdrop. They can eavesdrop from all these hills.
This area is called "Sadr al-Arous". Is here a place for planes to land?
Yes, here is a place for planes to land. There is a sign of the plane set up there.
This area is called "Sadr al-Arous".
Narration: Then, the Syrian Army carried out its mission in the west and northwest suburbs of Dar'a, trying to disconnect the flow of Israeli support and put an end to their control over the two provinces of Dar'a and Quneitra and the occupied Golan Heights. The Israeli regime increased its support for the Nusra Front in south Syria. Moreover, auxiliary equipment was added to the Golan Heights to keep it strong enough. This area runs in parallel with the Yarmoul Vale in the south and Majd al-Shams in the north. The regime also carried out more intelligence missions in the whole Golan Heights after declaring it as a closed military zone and particularly after many armed groups retreated from Ghalmoun and Zobdanito join their comrades in the Nusra Front. The armed groups also retreated from east Qutahafter the fall of Maliha and its surrounding towns. This is the very "JidarAttayyeb" that the Israeli regime had pinned its hopes to.
This is the new and the old dream of the Israeli regime because it tries to wage a war on Syria from this area and then to extend it to other parts of south Syria including the liberated parts of the Golan, an area that begins from the west suburbs of Dar'a – two villages of Sahm al-Jolan and al-Rafid – and continues to other villages in Quneitra to Tal al-Hamar which is in front of Tal Abualandi where the Israeli Army monitor every movement there to villages of Hazar and Arna and Jondal Castle at the foot of Al-Sheikh Mountain which the Syrian Army and its allies have under control to Ghalmoun Mountain. This area is about 70 kilometers and includes tens of villages from south Dar'a to the summit of Harmon Mountain. This area is not a buffer zone and UN forces have no control over it. Instead, it has become a safe haven for the armed groups equipped with Israeli weapons. They can enter the occupied territories and move from there to the Golan Heights and Shab'a area in Lebanese borders. This way, the Nusra Front can move easily from one point to another and take a detour to avoid resistance forces.
This conditionprompted the Lebanese Resistance to carry out a mission on October 7, 2014 to draw once more confrontation fronts in the area. On the other hand, the Israeli army wanted to convert this triangle into a golden place where it could fulfill what it couldn't in other areas and put the Lebanese Resistance under pressure. It was timefor the Resistance to stand up against such geo-military changes and monitor the activities of the Israeli Army in the area from near.
As the Resistance began its intelligence mission in the area, the Israeli Army realized that it was unlikely to fulfill its dream here. Therefore, in a desperate attempt, it attacked Al-Amal plains in the northeast of the village of Avania to aim some Hezbollah forces on an intelligence mission in the area.
The attack claimed the lives of six Resistance forces and one brigadier from the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. A few days later, the Resistance drew its plans anew. A mission with the same tactics and at the same time ….
… to begin a new era when borders have no value after being soaked with the blood of the Lebanese and Iranian resistance forces. The battle begins and the reality turns into a triangle of fire. This is one of the Israeli regime's positions.

Simcoe County history
One of Simcoe County's early politicians was a fireplug of a man, gifted athlete and admired lawyer.
Angus Morrison was born Jan. 20, 1822, in Edinburgh, Scotland.
His father, a discharged sergeant of the 82nd Royal Highland Regiment, and a widower, brought the family to Upper Canada in 1830, settling in Georgina Township. Farming didn't fit his father's personality and, a year later, Angus's father opened the Golden Ball Tavern. He might have been inspired by his marriage to the daughter of famous Upper Canadian bar owner John Montgomery, of Montgomery Tavern fame, where the main battle of the 1837 Rebellion took place. (Montgomery was a Barrie resident and is buried there.)
Angus joined the law firm of his brother, J.C. Morrison, in 1839 as a clerk and was called to the bar in 1845. He later opened his own firm at 110 King St. W., Toronto. It would become one of the leading firms in the province.
But it wasn't even law that made Angus's name. He was famous in Toronto for his athletic abilities, his dash, his broad chest, thick, curly hair and mutton-chop sideburns and his fashion sense. He was an avid rower and was declared champion of Toronto Bay in both 1840 and 1841 in the annual sculling races. He was also one of the city's leading curlers – an accomplished skip with the Toronto Curling Club, taking part in all-day competitions on the frozen lake.
His connections, formed through his various sporting endeavours, the St. Andrew's Society and a growing family helped to propel his legal practice. A corporate law solicitor, Morrison acted for the Canadian Bank of Commerce, University of Toronto, Ontario Building Society and many other influential corporations and organizations.
This profile made his transition to politician easy, and in 1853 he was elected alderman for St. James' ward.
The next year, Francis Hincks's government of the province of Canada fell, thanks to a scandal based on profits Hincks made from the sale of shares of the Ontario, Simcoe and Huron Railroad. Hincks was a major proponent of a British North American rail line, leading to the Grand Trunk Railway, but his government fell amid the whiff of corruption.
An election was in the offing and Morrison was selected as the Reform candidate for a new riding, Simcoe North, at the convention held in Barrie.
Morrison was an excellent politician, with interests spanning not only most of Simcoe County stretching north from Kempenfelt Bay, but also Toronto.
He toured his riding regularly, keeping in touch with the residents. He was also good at spreading the wealth. His light but effective touch with the awarding of government contracts balanced many interests and kept many happy.
At the top of his list of priorities was the promotion of transportation improvements – especially anything that would link Barrie, Orillia, Midland, Penetanguishene, Collingwood, Georgian Bay and Lake Simcoe with Toronto and Lake Ontario.
That meant railways, roads and canals.
And those all meant big money for the riding.
His success at engaging government investment in his riding led to his success at the polls and he was acclaimed in election after election. But canals connecting Lake Simcoe with Lake Ontario, and Lake Simcoe with Georgian Bay, soon ran against some logistical problems. Expensive rail lines that were not well-run were soon mired in debt, hurting not only the upper government, but the county as well. Morrison was a director of Northern Railway, so it was a personal issue, too.
Actually, it was even more personal. His brother, J.C., was president of the railway. There were a number of investigations into the rail lines and none found a problem with the behaviour of the two Morrison brothers. (This included the investigation that took down Hincks's government earlier.)
That said, there was a series of problems with what the rail line was trying to do. The railway tried to establish a shipping service out of Collingwood, but that service couldn't pay for itself. These were early days and the blueprint for rail success in Ontario had yet to be created.
Morrison's opponent loaded up on these glitches and failures as ammunition. Morrison loaded up on sandwiches and alcohol. Food and booze were used to encourage voters to support the politician who supplied the best and most drink and food. The Orillia Packet reported, "Whiskey was sent into the Townships in streams." The campaign was boisterous and at times violent.
Morrison lost.
He was later wooed by Conservatives in a riding in the Niagara Peninsula, which he won by a majority – a small majority, but a majority all the same.
He continued participating in politics outside of Simcoe County for two decades – including as mayor in Toronto. As mayor, Angus had the opportunity to award Ned Hanlan for his winning of a sculling match – the same one Angus had won as a young man.
His law firm thrived and he became a Queen's Counsel in 1873 at the age of 51. He died in his 60th year. It "was a shock to the entire community and his funeral, a municipal event, was reported to have consisted of more than 90 carriages."
Morrison's work on developing the infrastructure of Simcoe County early in its history led to a boom in settlement there. Colonization roads built on his recommendation helped draw new blood into the interior of the county, away from the shores of Lake Simcoe and Georgian Bay. Rail lines, linking Bradford with Barrie and Collingwood and Orillia and points between, helped new industries grow, giving the new settlers quick and easy access to goods and materials they no longer had to wait for to come from Toronto, Montreal or even overseas.
The Barrie Examiner reported on his funeral that of the "almost 100 carriages, 20 had travelled over roads in existence only because of Angus Morrison's conviction about the importance of Simcoe North to the future of the Canadian Nation!"
Clearly, people in Simcoe North had long memories.

it's an internet thing!
it's an internet thing!
11:28 21 May 2013
There has been discussion about trying to boost the Territorial Army while cutting significantly back on the regular army. This appears to be mostly about finances since the Territorial Army would be a reserve and only part time, and money could be saved if the Ministry of Defence doesn't need to pay so many full time regular army members.
What are the benefits to finances and other areas for making the change?
What are the negatives to finances and other areas for making the change?
When it comes to finances this doesn't appear to be a beneficial ideal, but the White Papers haven't been completed yet. If there are more details worked about spending more on training for Territorial Army recruits, and the savings of cutting back the regular army, it might be possible for it to have a positive impact on finances.
With the other areas of everyday life, there would need to be mandates to ensure that members of the Territorial Army would need to be employed and not discriminated against.
There could be issues if employers have more of a work force comprised of members of the Territorial Army because if something like deployment did happen, they would lose a good part of their staff and finances if they needed to temporarily close or hire more workers.
No doubt incentives will be included for businesses as part of the White Paper detailing the plans regarding the Territorial Army and the regular army.

September 9, 2009 Fond du Lac County Economic Development Corporation's Answers to Frequently Asked Questions Regarding the Mercury Marine Incentive Package
Answers to frequently asked questions regarding the Mercury Marine incentive package At FCEDC, we've been fielding some questions from both the public and the media regarding the recently released local incentive package being offered to Mercury Marine. In light of this, we felt it would be helpful to share these questions and the answers with all of you. How much land is being acquired and what will it be used for? There are three parcels near the Hickory and Pioneer intersection – 1.57 acres, 10.10 acres, and 9.41 acres. The City will utilize a Tax Increment District (TID) to fund the acquisition with expectations that the three parcels may be developed as commercial opportunities at some point in time. Is Mercury Marine being given $50 million as a grant or is this a loan? The $50 million is being provided in the form of a low interest rate loan with the expectation of repayment over the 12-year term. We are anticipating that the company will not get the entire loan up front, but rather it will be disbursed over an 18-month period of time. The loan will be collateralized and is considered "performance-based." So if it's a loan and it's going to be repaid, why do we need the sales tax? With the reduction in the interest rate (the loan is at 2% versus the County borrowing at market rate) and potential credits for job retention and creation, the company won't be paying enough to cover the debt service from the borrowing. The sales tax is being recommended to cover that "gap." How much sales tax could be needed to cover that "gap?" The max "all in" annual amount – that is if the company earns every single credit available to them - is just over $3 million annually. How does Mercury Marine earn the credits again? Is that what the "performance-based" statement means? Mercury Marine can earn credits towards the repayment of the loan by retained jobs ($500 credit per retained job) and creating new jobs ($1000 per credit). The credits are based upon how well the company performs. We will be utilizing the same baseline measurement of employment as the Wisconsin Department of Commerce for the measurement. So, for example, if the company retains the baseline number of jobs and adds 300 new jobs, the credit towards the repayment would be $1,063,000. Is there a limit on how much the company can earn as a credit? Yes. The agreement caps the total number of jobs at 2,900. This would equate to a maximum annual credit of $2,137,000. This would be deducted from their repayment amount and provides us with the maximum annual gap of $3 million previously mentioned. How much is that per job? It seems like a very large number. If Mercury reaches all the credits possible and the sales tax is paying a gap of $3 million annually, it equates to approximately $12,400 per job at Mercury Marine in local incentives. A threshold of $20,000 per full-time job is typical for economic development loans. So what if the company doesn't perform? Some people think they are just going to move anyway. This is a 12-year agreement so if the company doesn't maintain its presence in Fond du Lac, the loan will immediately becomes due and payable in full. There is also a $500 penalty for each job not retained at the baseline level previously mentioned. What happens if the company goes bankrupt? The City of Fond du Lac and Fond du Lac County are guaranteeing the loan and a proportionate rate (28% City, 72% County). The sales tax would still be utilized to cover a portion of the debt service from the borrowing, but then the City and County would need to make up the difference to cover the balance of the debt service. Note though that we previously indicated that the loan will be collateralized. This means that the City and County will have property and/or equipment pledged from Mercury Marine. If something does happen, the City and County would sell that asset to attempt to cover the remaining debt rather than it coming from the taxpayers. Other businesses, large and small, in Fond du Lac County are also struggling. Why are we only helping Mercury Marine? While the magnitude of the impact that Mercury Marine has on our community justified the size of the incentive package, the tools being utilized, the programs tapped into and the expertise utilized to put the package together are similar and in some cases identical to those previously used for other Fond du Lac County businesses. Fond du Lac County's revolving loan fund, for example, at the end of 2008 had a portfolio of $3.6 million. In 2008 alone, $1,592,500 was approved in loans to local businesses from this one fund alone. Existing business development services are available to any business in Fond du Lac County through Fond du Lac County Economic Development Corporation. So how much will be collected for the sales tax and does Mercury Marine get all of it? If not, what happens to the rest of the money? The $3 million represents less than half of the estimated annual sales tax revenue (projected at $6.5-$7 million in current economic climate) with the balance planned to be utilized for economic development, reduction of County debt, and property tax relief. What happens to the .5% county sales tax once the 12-year loan is done? Do we still need to pay the tax or is there a sunset? A sunset clause has been mentioned and briefly discussed. There will need to be further discussion on whether a sunset date is incorporated into the authorization of the sales tax. County Board action is needed to either extend the timeline, or eliminate the tax, and this can be done at any time with proper notice. Is the .5% county sales tax the only option? No. The gap could be placed on property taxes but that would equate to an approximate 10% increase on the County portion of the tax bill. The 2008 rate was $5.03/$1000 so a 10% increase would be $.50 per $1000. An owner of a home worth $125,000 would see an increase of $62.50 annually while an owner of a home worth $250,000 would experience an annual increase of $125. A wheel tax on motor vehicles registered in Fond du Lac County could also be implemented. This would add $100 per each vehicle registered. The sales tax is consumer driven and many food items, medications and other medical-related items, and motor fuel are not subject to the .5% sales tax. Of the $6.5-$7 million collected annually, approximately 22% is paid by people not living in Fond du Lac County.

Adding a two player game to The Sims universe should prove to be a brilliant move for the Xbox and GameCube versions. In the case of each of those consoles, the graphics are much closer to what PC Sims players are used, but with the GC and Xbox versions have the functionality, control and features that make console games so accessible. Not that all PC gamers are fearsome loners huddled over computers in funky smelling basements and bedrooms, but the PC versions of The Sims wouldn't be able to facilitate a game between you and your buddy like the console versions. There are a couple handfuls of head-to-head game types and the entire game can be played cooperatively with you and a friend each taking control of a character.
All of the two player games are split screen --diagonally split no less-- so that you can always see what the other player is up to. Both players will be able to control time on the triggers, so it becomes a matter of who squeezes first that determines whether you're fast forwarding or pausing. In all game types, two human players can interact with each other and they'll react according to their individual personality types and nature of their relationship. That is, when player A's character goes to slap or tickle or insult player B's character, player B's character, in that instance, will have a response that player B doesn't even control. It's as if player B's character is just another Sim in the world for player A to interact with, and vice versa. That's not to say player B can't immediately return the slap, tickle or insult as they see fit.
The head-to-head games are associated with the map you decide to play on. There are about eight different locations that you'll open up as you progress through the game that can be used in the head-to-head games. The Frat House game pits players against each other to make three friends as quickly as possible. There are a few neutral Sims milling about the house and you and your buddy have to attempt to improve your relationship with them through conversation, compliments, flirting and hugs while at the same time undermining your rival's relationships by spreading rumors about him or her. It becomes a lightning quick strategy game where you have to allocate just the right amount of time and effort to making friends for yourself, while also making sure your opponent gets no loving. The big winner ends up hopping the hot tub with his three new chums while the loser starts crying incessantly. Very dramatic. The games are timed in the event that the winning conditions are never met.
The head-to-head game in the park ends up being a thrilling two person minigame where the object is not to go hungry. Why you're in a public park isn't clear, but there is a barbecue grill and a few other Sims hanging out. Here you and your opponent have several options to fill your hunger meter up to 100%. You can build relationships and schmooze with the Sims so that when you beg for food they're more likely to give it to you. You can simply pull a "snack jack" and steal a certain percentage of food from unwitting Sims. But there are so many things to consider when choosing how you want to do this and so many things you can do to help and hurt your cause. Each of the nonplayable Sims has their personality and opinion of you that you'll have to account for. Why waste time schmoozing somebody that doesn't like you when you can just jack them for a burger and move on to the next guy or gal. Likewise don't steal food from somebody that likes you but at the same time realize you can't keep begging friends for food and expect them to keep like you on general principle. Sometimes when you hook up the grill and cook up eight burgers --good for quite a few percentage points on the hunger meter-- you'll be mobbed by the others, including your opponent, who'll scarf all of the ones that you haven't eaten yet. Do you pay them back with a few harsh words and a backhand or hope that they appreciated your fine cooking and think highly of you? The winner is the one that fills their belly, the loser dies a painful death right on the spot while his or her stomach eats itself. A tombstone appears and everybody --including the winner-- dances on the losers grave including the spirit of the deceased which has no taken on the form of the grim reaper. Yeah.
IGN will have plenty more on The Sims for Xbox and GameCube in the weeks leading up to its release, because we were pleasantly and mildly surprised that they're not going to be knockoffs of a PS2 knockoff of the PC hit.

Over the weekend, liberals and Democrats have seized on Congressman John Lewis' mantle as a "civil rights legend" to criticize President-Elect Trump for having the gall to acknowledge that the Democratic politician is "All talk, no action."
As always, the controversy began when a liberal launched an unprovoked attack against Trump, with the Congressional Black Caucus member declaring that the President-Elect will not be a "legitimate president."
As always, after being gratuitously insulted, Trump offered a blistering counterpunch, correctly pointing out that: "Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart (not to mention crime infested), rather than falsely complaining about the election results."
And, as always, Democrats and their allies in the liberal media have sought to capitalize on Trump's response by furiously waiving the race card. Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, for example, tweeted, "Ahead of #MLKday2017, let us remember that many have tried to silence @repjohnlewis over the years. All have failed." Meanwhile, echoing the Democratic Party's anti-Trump attack message (as always), the liberal Los Angeles Times posted an article entitled, "Trump kicks off Martin Luther King weekend by sharply criticizing civil rights icon John Lewis," in a transparent attempt to smear Trump as a racist who supposedly attacked a black "civil rights icon" for no good reason.
This new controversy, which has a deja-vu feel to it, serves as a vivid reminder that liberals and some weak-kneed conservatives have failed to learn the lessons of the past election. Rather than standing up against Democrats' foul race card tactics, Republican Senator Ben Sasse, who has a track record of trying to undermine the President-Elect, tweeted that "John Lewis and his 'talk' have changed the world." He did not point out, however, that the "talk" he was referring to occurred over 50 years ago and that Rep. Lewis has been a career politician for the past three decades with little to show for it.
The Nebraska Senator was joined by another conservative, Bill Kristol, a prominent Never Trumper, who disingenuously wrote that "[i]t's telling, I'm afraid, that Donald Trump treats Vladimir Putin with more respect than he does John Lewis." The only thing that is telling about this episode, however, is that it is another reminder we have a new President who is willing to fight back and not be pushed around. That is news conservatives like Kristol should welcome instead of cowering from.
Other Republicans, fearful of the political correctness crowd, also weighed in, suggesting that it was "stupid" for Trump to "pick a fight" with the Congressional Black Caucus member and that he should not "go there."
That Democrats would attempt to deify Rep. Lewis and stigmatize anyone who points out his political failures is understandable. Supporters of fascist and communist regimes typically try to ensure that anyone who dares to criticize old party leaders is anathematized. But it is somewhat surprising and disappointing that conservatives would fall for this.
Trump showed in the last election that the best way to defeat liberal bullies is by fighting back, not by whimpering out of fear that the media will make you look bad. The reality is that no matter how much Republicans try to play the political correctness game, liberals are always going to brand them racists like they have done with John McCain, Jeb Bush, and Mitt Romney. So instead of playing the liberals' games, Republicans have to stand up for themselves when liberals dishonestly attack them. This is true even if the liberal bully is treated by the media as a sacred national figure based on actions that took place over 50 years ago.
No one today seriously suggests that Zimbabwean dictator Robert Mugabe or former Ghana ruler Kwame Nkrumah should be judged solely by their heroic actions several decades ago when they were freedom fighters. Instead, a fair accounting of these leaders should take into account their actions once they seized power. In the same way, Rep. Lewis must also be judged and held accountable for what he has done or not done during his 30 years in political office, unless America, under the influence of Democrats and the liberal press, has become a country like Stalinist Russia, Maoist China, or Mussolini's Italy, where sainted political figures can't be criticized.
The fact is Rep. Lewis has a long track record of failing millions of his black constituents. The city of Atlanta, which falls in the district he has represented for three decades, remains plagued with homicides, "chronically failing" public schools, and egregiously high levels of black poverty. For Trump, in response to a gratuitous insult, to fault the African-American congressman for failing to deliver better results for his constituents is not improper. Instead, it is simply calling a spade a spade.

2018 Chevrolet Tahoe RST
Author: Stijn
Today, Chevy introduced a new special edition for the Tahoe and Suburban: the street-performance Rally Sport Truck, or RST. The Tahoe RST will also be available with a new Performance Package that includes a 420-hp, 6.2L V-8 engine; Magnetic Ride Control with performance calibration; and an all-new Hydra-Matic 10L80 10-speed automatic transmission.
"Chevrolet has continually invested in Tahoe and Suburban, developing models with varying combinations of capability, technology and performance to meet the needs of different customers," said Sandor Piszar, Chevrolet Truck Marketing director. "The RST is designed for customers who want a street performance look without sacrificing capability or refinement, along with the option of increased performance as well."
RST will be available on Tahoe and Suburban models in the fall of 2017. Inspired by aftermarket trends, virtually all chrome trim has been eliminated for a street performance appearance. Changes include body-color grille surround and door handles; gloss-black grille and mirror caps; black roof rails, window trim, badging and Chevy bowties. RST also includes exclusive 22-inch wheels wrapped in Bridgestone P285/45R 22 tires.
Available upgrades for Tahoe and Suburban RST include a Borla performance exhaust system that offers a 28 percent improvement in exhaust flow, for a 7-10-horsepower gain at the rear wheels. An available brake package features massive front red Brembo six-piston, fixed aluminum calipers with brake pads clamping on larger-than-stock 410 x 32mm (16.1 inch x 1.3 inch) Duralife rotors coupled with a 84 percent increase in brake pad area and a 42 percent increase in rotor area to increase system thermal capacity. Duralife™ rotors feature a hardened surface to reduce corrosion and provide quieter braking with less vibration.
The Tahoe RST will also be offered with an exclusive Performance Package that includes Magnetic Ride Control with performance calibration, 6.2L V-8 and the new 10L80 10-speed automatic transmission.
This is the first time Tahoe will offer the 6.2L V-8, which delivers an estimated 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. The engine features three state-of-the-art technologies — direct injection, Active Fuel Management and continuously variable valve timing — to make the most of power, torque and efficiency across a broad range of operating conditions.
The 6.2L V-8 will be paired with an all-new 10-speed automatic transmission. With smaller steps between each ratio, the transmission maximizes engine power under acceleration. With a wide 7.39 overall gear ratio spread and lower numerical top gear ratio, the transmission also improves efficiency by reducing engine revolutions at highway speeds.
Based on preliminary estimates, the Tahoe RST Performance Package will offer a towing capacity of 8,400 pounds and the truck will be cable of 0-60 mph acceleration in less than 6 seconds. Full performance metrics will be announced closer to launch.
Magnetic Ride Control is an active suspension that "reads" the road every millisecond, triggering damping changes in the electronically controlled shock absorbers in as few as 5 milliseconds. As a result, the suspension delivers both improved body-motion control during cornering and a more comfortable ride while cruising. The new performance calibration included in the Tahoe RST Performance Package increases body control for even higher levels of responsiveness and comfort.
"When you want to hustle, it is incredibly fast, with significantly higher levels of acceleration, braking and road-holding grip," said Eric Stanczak, chief engineer for Chevrolet full-size trucks. "When you want to relax, it is very refined, with exceptional ride comfort and interior quietness."
Chevrolet has been the best-selling full-size SUV brand for 42 years. Today, Tahoe and Suburban are the top two vehicles in the segment. They also account for 49.3 percent of retail sales, or nearly one out of every two full-size SUVs Americans bought in 2016. Tahoe and Suburban customers are also the most loyal owners in the segment, with 79 percent of owners replacing their vehicle with another Tahoe or Suburban.

Just like Black Friday, the day after Christmas is typically one of the biggest shopping days of the week.
Although Christmas may be over, stores were definitely filled with deal-seeking shoppers on Wednesday.
"We do the Black Friday and then we do the after Christmas because you can't catch deals like this," said shopper Ginger Stogner.
Turtle Creek Mall was one place to catch a lot of good Christmas sales this year.
"Charlotte Russe has good sales, they have buy one get one fifty percent off," said shopper Taylor Simpson.
Though along with the great deals also came the big crowds.
"I took off work today, I was thinking everybody else was going to be at home," said shopper Shannon Lott. "I was hoping I would run in and run out, but it wasn't like that."
While the day after Christmas is very popular, many stores keep the sales going for an entire week.

Rookie quarterback Colin Kaepernick will play with the 49ers' first-team offense against the Houston Texans' first-team defense Saturday night at Candlestick Park.
Coach Jim Harbaugh is going against conventional NFL wisdom that the third exhibition game is the time to get your starters ready for the regular season, which begins 15 days later.
Instead, Harbaugh is using the opportunity to learn more about his backups in a situation that is more like the regular season than anything else this time of year.Typically, when a backup quarterback plays in the exhibition season it's almost impossible to know what it all means. The backup is usually playing with other backups and against non-starting defensive players. Sometimes it's more akin to a college all-star game than actual NFL competition.This third exhibition game, however, should provide Harbaugh and his staff with a good gauge of where Kaepernick stands in his readiness to lead an NFL offense into a regular-season game.
RELATED: 49ers notes -- QB rotation of Smith, Kaepernick, Smith
Harbaugh has not announced whom will start for the 49ers in the regular-season opener Sept. 11 against the Seattle Seahawks. We can all assume the quarterback will be Alex Smith, based on Harbaugh's comments last week that Smith has gained "separation" in the competition with Kaepernick.And, indeed, Harbaugh said Smith will start Saturday against the Texans. But Harbaugh is also clearly planning for the possibility the 49ers will need to replace Smith at some point in the regular season.Eighteen teams in the NFL last season had their backup quarterbacks play the equivalent of at least two games. So, yes, the odds are against Smith playing the entire season.Harbaugh has heaped effusive praise onto both Smith and Kaepernick during training camp. But we don't know if Harbaugh really believes he has a capable starting quarterback to open the season.RELATED: Maiocco -- 49ers' 53-man roster projection
Smith certainly needs more work in the West Coast system. But rather than playing the first half and opening the third quarter with the starters, Smith will share his prep time with the rookie.Kaepernick is listed as the No. 2, but he can go up or down based on this performance. If Kaepernick demonstrates his readiness, Harbaugh will have Smith on a shorter leash in the first half of the season.The 49ers signed veteran Josh McCown as a third quarterback -- an insurance policy. If Harbaugh determines Kaepernick simply is not ready, perhaps McCown would be the first quarterback called upon if a backup is needed in the regular season.Typically, the third exhibition game is considered the most important because it's the closest thing resembling a regular-season game.For the 49ers, it's the most important game because it might shape how Harbaugh handles his quarterbacks in the regular season.

Prosecution Rejects Talansky Request to Testify Behind Closed Doors on Olmert Affair
Key witness in graft probe against Olmert made request fearing his testimony would be taken out of context.
The State Prosecutor's office on Sunday rejected a request from lawyers for Jewish American businessman Morris Talansky - the key witness in the graft probe against Prime Minister Ehud Olmert - to have his testimony in Israel continue in a closed courtroom and under a gag order.
Talansky, who is suspected of making illicit cash transfers to Olmert, testified in May 2008 that he had transferred Olmert some $150,000 over 15 years, and that Olmert had tried to aid a Talansky business venture by introducing him to several American billionaires.
Uri Korev, an attorney for the Jerusalem District Prosecutor's office on Sunday notified Talansky's lawyer Jack Chen that he will consider allowing parts of Talansky's testimony to take place behind closed doors, in light of his fears that his words will be manipulated or taken out of context.
Korev also reiterated that the State Prosecutor will not use Talansky's testimony to prosecute him in Israel, nor will they restrict him or his movement in Israel.
