Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Survey accurate within, well, nothing at all
DUE to the reduced accuracy of the nation's new census methodology, the proportion of Canadians who are visible minorities is either "one in five" or "totally awesome."
The face of the average Manitoban is either a 21-year-old aboriginal male or an 80-year-old Klingon warrior from the upcoming J.J. Abrams movie Star Trek: Into Darkness.
Left out in the cold
THE federal government's decision to axe the long-form census has left parts of the Conservative heartland in western and rural Canada without some of the newest data on how its population is changing.
Because of low response rates, Statistics Canada chose to withhold all data on a quarter of Canadian municipalities, or 1,128, compared with the 200 that were suppressed after the 2006 long-form census.
Saskatchewan had the worst results, with information not published on 43 per cent, or more than 500, of its communities. The Conservatives hold all but one of the seats in that province.
Some of the towns and cities excluded across the country include Bonavista, Nfld., Pictou, N.S., Sackville, N.B., Dauphin, Man., Vulcan, Alta., and Tofino, B.C.
— The Canadian Press
Census 2011
Explore the numbers and see how different regions of Canada compare and have changed since the last census in 2006.
The number of Canadians who declare themselves as having no religion is either 23 per cent or Michael Stipe from R.E.M.
OK, so I'm being facetious. Unfortunately, no one really can say for certain what's happening in this great and apparently growing nation, thanks to the federal government's perplexing decision to do away with the mandatory, long-form census.
In 2011, it was no longer compulsory for Canadians to respond to what's now known as the National Household Survey. Instead, you merely had to respond to the questionnaire if, you know, you were in the mood or didn't have anything more exciting to do at the time.
As a result, in its big release on Wednesday, Statistics Canada was only able to present data for about three-quarters of the nation's census subdivisions. In the other 25 per cent, too many people — more than half the population, in fact — did not bother to fill out the form.
What that means is the 2011 census suffers from a flaw statisticians call "non-response bias," which is a neutral, scientific way of saying "not enough bloody data to see the whole picture."
Entire towns and rural municipalities were left out of the survey report, which is bad news for any government effort to tailor policies to the needs of its population. Less obviously, there's no assurance of the accuracy of the census data for the subdivisions that were in the report.
The overall non-response rate was about 31 per cent in 2011. The last time filling out the census was mandatory, the non-response rate was closer to six per cent. The latter number was small enough for statisticians to fill in the data gaps with some measure of accuracy.
Efforts to adjust the data now are less reliable — and way more annoying to the policy-makers who rely on accurate information to paint a picture of any segment of the population, whether it's Winnipeggers or Roman Catholics or single people caring for their children.
It will come as no shock to learn people who work in the field of statistics are unhappy with the state of the data.
"It's not ideal," said Curtis Brown, an associate with Winnipeg's Probe Research, using very strong words for his famously dispassionate profession.
"It's potentially not going to be as reliable and there will be validity concerns, just because of the way it was done. Time will tell in the analysis whether it holds up to scrutiny."
Before the feds rolled out the new voluntary survey, they conducted simulations to see how reliable it would be. According to the Globe and Mail, those tests revealed sampling errors for people with low incomes and First Nations people — two very important components of Winnipeg's population.
Without accurate data, the city, province and Ottawa run the risk of both failing to meet the needs — and spending way too much on any particular program aimed at any particular group. In Winnipeg, anti-poverty efforts and aboriginal community-development programs are particularly important.
While there is no reason to doubt the 2011 survey's assertion Winnipeg has Canada's largest First Nations population, there's very good reason to question the actual count.
Opponents of the mandatory census argued the questionnaire would say that's none of the government's business. To this particular brand of libertarian, the mandatory census constituted an intrusion into the private lives of citizens.
But there are two kinds of liberty — the freedom to do stuff and the freedom from harm. A libertarian case can be made it is wrong to subject anyone else to harm through our own inaction.
In other words, filling out your census form may just be one of the most valuable duties any citizen can perform, because the data offer academics, policy-makers and politicians the tools they need to improve lives, not to mention create accurate budgets and spend public money more wisely.
And to think it only took a few minutes of our time.

About Bartley Kives
Bartley Kives wants you to know his last name rhymes with Beavis, as in Beavis and Butthead. He aspires to match the wit, grace and intelligence of the 1990s cartoon series.
Bartley joined the Free Press in 1998 as a music critic. He spent the ensuing 7.5 years interviewing the likes of Neil Young and David Bowie and trying to stay out of trouble at the Winnipeg Folk Festival before deciding it was far more exciting to sit through zoning-variance appeals at city hall.
In 2006, Bartley followed Winnipeg Mayor Sam Katz from the music business into civic politics. He spent seven years covering city hall from a windowless basement office.
He is now reporter-at-large for the Free Press and also writes an outdoor-recreation column called Offroad for the Outdoors page.
A canoeist, backpacker and food geek, Bartley is fond of conventional and wilderness travel. He is the author of A Daytripper's Guide to Manitoba: Exploring Canada's Undiscovered Province, the only comprehensive travel guidebook for Manitoba – and a Canadian bestseller, to boot. He is also co-author of Stuck In The Middle: Dissenting Views of Winnipeg, a collaboration with photographer Bryan Scott and the winner of the 2014 Carol Shields Winnipeg Book Award.
Bartley appears every second Wednesday on Citytv's Breakfast Television. His work has also appeared on CBC Radio and in publications such as The Guardian, explore magazine and National Geographic Traveler.
Born in Winnipeg, he has an arts degree from the University of Winnipeg and a master's degree in journalism from Ottawa's Carleton University. He is the proud owner of a blender.

Bills' Gailey Won't Discuss Evaluation of DC Edwards
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Dec 20 2011 3:27PM
For the second straight season, the Buffalo Bills have not gotten the job done on defense. The team isn't putting pressure on opposing quarterbacks, they're not stopping the run as effectively as they were earlier in the season and the defensive backs are getting torched on a weekly basis.
With all three of those phases playing so poorly, the name of Bills defensive coordinator George Edwards has come under fire from fans and media alike. When asked a few weeks ago whether or not Edwards would be safe, head coach Chan Gailey deflected the question.
This time around, he was asked to evaluate the job that his defensive coordinator has done through nearly two seasons. His response was a non-answer, but a bit more telling.
"This not the time to discuss all of that," Gailey said. "We're all doing the very best that we can, trying to put guys in position to be successful, everybody, in all three phases, that's all we're trying to do is be the best we can and try to win this game and the next one. That's the goal, that's the only thought right now."
Gailey continued along with an answer similar to the one received a few weeks prior:
"Hey, everybody's getting criticism. You lose this many games in a row, we all get criticism. There's nobody that escapes criticism when you're doing what we're doing right now."
The Bills have two more games to go, the first of which against Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos on Saturday.

Good food, good cocktails, a nice bar. You can choose some nice picks among the menu, but the best are the mushroom soup and their FABULOUS and GIANT chocolate cake!! need a try.
I had an excellent hamburger with gorgonzola cheese and fries, plus a dark ale from the tap. I passed up the chocolate cake but you might plan to leave room for it--it looked stupendous. The atmosphere is comfy and casual.
The craft beer selection was excellent, but one chef is from New Orleans and his evening special was crayfish and shrimp etoufee that was excellent. Five stars except that we also went to Pescara and Mango Thai for two even more wonderful meals.
I thought the City Cafe was a typical bar like all the others in downtown Rochester, but it had a varied menu. My husband had a delicious Gorgonzola burger, and I had a unique fish and chips. Baked fish, home style potatoes, and deep fried pickles (not my favorite). I give them credit for trying something different with their menu....
If you have to fast before getting lab tests and must avoid certain foods for a period, I'd recommend City Cafe. They have a number of healthy options. I had seared tuna on peppers with rice. The food is well prepared, the service is quick and the atmosphere is pleasant. It's only a block from the Clinic and many hotels.
Ate outside in beautiful September weather. Everything was great. Had the parmesan grouper and it was so good with a delicious sauce. The salad was also excellent. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful and cozy. The service was top notch.
We visited here on a Sunday evening looking for someplace to eat downtown. Many places were closed. Nice outdoor patio and pleasant indoor seating. We had the bleu cheese appetizer and maple chicken breast. Both were exceptional! One of the best meals I have had in a restaurant. The waitress was very friendly also. I will definitely return.
We dined at a place that says it's a great seafood restaurant, and it was OK. Our server was brand new and very nervous, but otherwise nice.
I ordered the Pecan crusted Florida Grouper, which they said was their "signature dish". It was actually somewhat overcooked, so a bit dry. The sauce was very nice, though, thankfully, so it helped...
Enjoyed lunch here the other day; I enjoyed being able to eat at the nice patio outside. There aren't many places that provide this in Rochester. I've normally enjoyed City Cafe's lunches, but was disappointed with the salmon burger. It was a bit mushy and didn't have much flavor. The fries were pretty good though and helped redeem the meal....
This is a great place to get sea food and have a drink in a relaxed atmosphere. There are booths and tables, all nicely appointed. In addition to the main menu, the daily specials are wonderful. Try the mediteranian mussels -- they really are different from N. American ones!

MoMa Presents Large-Scale Exhibitions of Labrouste and Le Corbusier
For the first time in its history, The Museum of Modern Art presents a comprehensive exhibition on the work of Le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, French, born Switzerland, 1887-1965), encompassing his work as architect, interior designer, artist, city planner, writer, and photographer. Le Corbusier: An Atlas of Modern Landscapes reveals the ways in which Le Corbusier observed and imagined landscapes throughout his career, using all the artistic mediums and techniques at his disposal, from early watercolors of Italy, Greece, and Turkey, to sketches of India, and from photographs of his formative journeys to architectural models of his large-scale projects. All of these dimensions of his artistic process, including major paintings and five reconstructed interiors, are presented in the largest exhibition ever produced in New York of Le Corbusier's protean and influential oeuvre. Le Corbusier: An Atlas of Modern Landscapes draws on MoMA's own collection, and substantially on exclusive loans from the Paris-based Le Corbusier Foundation. MoMA is the only U.S. venue for the exhibition, which will travel to Fundació "la Caixa" in Madrid (April 1-June 29, 2014), and to Fundació "la Caixa" in Barcelona (July 15-October 19, 2014).
The exhibition is organized by guest curator Jean-Louis Cohen, Sheldon H. Solow Professor in the History of Architecture, Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, with Barry Bergdoll, The Philip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design at MoMA.

True Blood, True Hotness: Alexander Skarsgard in the Showerby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Alexander Skarsgard is sexier than Robert Pattinson.
It's true. Check out the results of our poll comparing the two hunks. Rob is totally getting worked over!
With that in mind, the following video is certainly a must-see for any female with a pulse.
It's a clip from a 2002 Swedish film titled Hundtricket (which translates to "The Dog Trick"). Sure, it's in a foreign language, but, for one thing, there are subtitles; for another, the hotness of this True Blood star is universal...
Sure, Rob Pattinson is good looking...for a boy. But Alexander Skarsgard is a real MAN! And freaking hot. Hence the stupid smile on my face right now as I stare (and I mean STARE) at his picture. Many sleepless nights caused by this one...
Ding!Ding!Ding! And we have a winner! Alex is way hotter than any man I´ve seen. Talented actor, wonderful eyes (those eyes!!), a voice that can melt concrete, killer smile, tall and just WOW! He is just the perfect vampire - the power he transmitts is scary awesome! If you look up the word Sexy in a dictionary I wouldn´t be surprised if you find a picture of this man :-)
So look... I'm a huge robert pattinson fan and I do believe he is gorgeous however, alexander skarsgard is just HOT! I do not believe that many men can carry that amount of sex appeal. Wow!!! I'm deffinately team eric. Sorry Edward
Alexander is definitely the hottest thing to hit the US in a very long time. I think what makes him so special is the fact that he seems so real, accessible, and really really sweet. His eyes and voice are the most amazing things about him. And boy is that man a teriffic actor along with his hottness. The Pattinson boy is a nice looking kid but he is very much like all of the other young disposible actors out today (they all look pretty much alike) the only reason he is so popular is the fact that he plays Edward Cullen.
Cant get enough of Alexander Skarsgard. He is amazing.
Both Alexander and Rob are sexy no doubt but Alexander(Eric) has made me a true fangbanger! :)
Robert pattinson is a good looking guy, but honestly hes nothing with out his fake pale skinn haha. alexander skarsgard defiantly wins this one over on looks.:) and his character wayy better,twlight's getting overrated.:(
Team Eric! :D
Any woman can see that Alexander Skarsgard is a very sexy man. I've seen both Twilight and every episode of True Blood and the HBO show is infinitely more fun, witty and sexy.
Pattinson sexy?? for a teenager ...MAYBE!.....

Oil well control is one of the most important processes during drilling operations. In deepwater drilling, controlling pressure in the oil well is crucial, as excessive pressures in the drilled hole can result in blowouts, leading to disastrous events like the 2010 Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill.
The deeper the well, the higher the pressure, and the higher the risks associated with tapping oil from wells. During drilling, when the pressure applied to balance the hydrocarbon pressure in a well is not great enough to overcome that exerted by gas and fluids in the rock formation drilled, water, gas, oil, or other formation fluid can enter the hole. This is called a "gas kick," which in worst-case scenarios can lead to blowouts.
In a paper published earlier this month in the SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, author Steinar Evje presents new analysis of a mathematical model that has applications to the study of such gas kicks in deep-water oil wells.
The use of mathematical models is important for the development of tools that can help simulate, and hence, increase control in deep-water well operations. "Various gas kick simulators are being developed for the purpose of studying well control aspects during exploratory and development drilling," says Evje. "Simulators have become an important tool for the development of new, more efficient and safer drilling methods."
"A simulator for drilling operations is composed of a set of nonlinear coupled partial differential equations that describe the simultaneous flow of hydrocarbons in a well. This mathematical model represents a 'virtual laboratory' where the finer mechanisms related to a number of different physical effects can be studied in detail," Evje goes on to explain.
The main challenge presented in many of these models is the precise prediction of the pressure profile in addition to liquid/gas volumes and flow rates at various points along the oil well. "This

The Fender Telecaster guitar is one of the most well-known and easily recognisable electric guitars, but what's the secret behind its distinctive sound?
The Tele was developed by Leo Fender and introduced in 1950. It's been in production ever since. Loved for its bright, cutting tone, the Tele, as it's known, has been used in rock, country, blues, and even jazz. Among the most ardent fans of the Fender Telecaster guitar are Bruce Springsteen, Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt from Status Quo, The Police's Andy Summers, and Steve Cropper of Booker T and the MGs. Muddy Waters, Albert Lee, Joe Strummer, Roy Buchanan, and Albert Collins also regularly played this iconic guitar.
The Tele even makes an appearance at the beginning of Purple Rain, before Prince gets his hand on that custom, white, curved beauty of a guitar later on.
The Fender Telecaster guitar was one of the first production line guitars and was built with mass production in mind. Its classic incarnation had a maple neck with the frets inlaid onto it, there was no fingerboard. That neck was bolted onto a body made of ash or alder and there are two single coil pick-ups. A three-way selector allows you to choose neck, bridge, or both pick-ups, and there are master volume and tone controls.
There have been changes made to the Tele over the years, such as truss rod adjustment moving from the body end to the head end of the neck, and an alteration to the wiring of the pick-up selector switch, but the basic design has remained.
The key to the sound of the Fender Telecaster is the arrangement of the pick-ups. The bridge pick-up has more coils than the one at the neck and so has greater resistance. That produces a higher output, compensating for the lower amplitude of string vibration at the bridge.
In addition, there's a small capacitor between the volume control and the output, which means that treble frequencies 'bleed' through when the volume is turned down, dampening the mid and lower ranges. The classic Tele sound is achieved by setting the volume at around the 3/4 mark, boosting the treble and supplementing it with the fat tone of the bridge pick-up.
Common alterations include the replacement of the tone control with a second volume control, and the re-wiring of the neck pick-up so that it's out of phase, producing a very different tone.Fender Telecaster image by Bradley Johnson

I'm currently giving my codes to a friend of mine. Problem is, I only drink about 6 pints a week, so she's gonna have to start bathing in the stuff to get a backpack I think!
On a slightly OT note, is Cravendale nicer than normal milk?

"Narrator ruins book"
I enjoyed the book but the reader made it unpleasant.
No! I will skip anything that she is listed as the reader.
The reader sounded like she was eating the whole time she was reading. I could hear her breathing and swallowing throughout. She didn't use different "voices" for the different characters.

Talking To Promoters + Club Managers: The Art Of The Approach
Here is a phenomenon that you may be very familiar with – you go to a club and the DJ is absolutely terrible. At first you think that maybe you are being too critical since you are actually a DJ yourself – but then you keep listening and you being to wonder how this guy even got up behind the decks at all. It is a sad fact, but still a fact, and that is that having talent doesn't give you access to more and better work, is really who you know and who you make a deal with. That is why terrible DJs can still get around town, because they have great management skills.
Learning to pitch your ideas to a club owner or manager is a skill that needs to be learned and perfected. Much like a sale job, you have to get used to hearing the word, "No", but you can't let too many knows begin to shatter your faith, maybe you just need to work on your skills. There is such a thing as luck and opportunity, and neither of these can be predictable – so you simply have to be prepared when the time is right to approach somebody and ask.

Posted April 6, 2013 at 9:39PM
Today Saturday the 6th of April I visited McDonald's restaurant with two of my friends on Tottenham Court Road. My friends were from abroad. One of my friends wanted to ask a member of staff a question, initially he was being ignored so I said excuse me Sir to a manager and I did a gesture using all of my hand as come forward. I did not use a single finger rather the whole of my hand to gesture to him to let him know we wanted to speak with him. He comes over and verbally raised his voice in threatening manner that the gesture I used is insulting to his culture. He made indication what culture he represented or how the gesture actually affected his culture.
I come home only to find there is only if I finger wagged also know as the dog calling sign which I did not use but used the knuckle area of hand to gesture to come over and bending all of fingers t to touch the palm of my hand. It wasn't' that busy in the restaurant. As we were leaving the manager repeated his statement and his manager partner started to raise his voice almost shout.
I have always used this gesture for the last 40 years only to be told by very arrogant manager from McDonald's something very constrict-dory .
My friends found the staff there very insulting and very rude even though he was accusing me of being rude. I did not raise my voice at him or provoke the staff in any way.

Turbine's Book 11 update for The Lord of the Rings Online included an impressive amount of content. It had player housing, a new instance called The Rift of Nûrz Ghâshu, and class updates for the Minstrel and Lore-master classes. It also introduced Goblin Town , the place where Bilbo was captured in The Hobbit, into the game-world.
LOTRO Vault has posted a map of Goblin Town. From the Slave Pens to Gollum's Cave, they've got it all covered. If this is all new to you, you might want to also check out LOTRO Vault's directory of Book 11 screenshots of High Pass and Goblin Town too. Gorgeous.
The Book updates keep chipping away farther and farther into the eastern parts of Eriador. Could Moria be next? We hope so. We wants it!
