Cold temps cause more premature deaths than heat, international study shows
Hundreds of students at Bracebridge and Muskoka Lakes Secondary School walked out of class to protest Bill 115 early this week, a law which they say has put their own future and aspirations at risk.
Against the bitter cold of Tuesday, Dec. 11, students filed out of their classes at around 9:30 a.m. in a resounding show of support for their teachers, who now face a two-year contract from the province that takes away their right to collective bargaining. With extracurricular activities and athletics suspended indefinitely due to labour disruptions, students at the protest expressed concern that their pathways to higher learning are being jeopardized.
"A lot of kids are devastated because that was their whole life. Some of the Grade 12s were relying on that for scholarships," rugby player Chris Carnduff said of the school's sports teams. "That's going to be a huge hit for them if they can't get scholarships to go to university and stuff. If they don't have their team, they can't show their skills and they can't practice."
Carnduff was joined by school hockey team member Owen Nudd, who doesn't see himself back on the ice anytime soon.
"It was just starting, and we were supposed to have a practice this Monday, but it was cancelled because of this bill thing," he said. "I'm really upset."
Student parliament prime minister Lauren Rainey said some senior students at the school had made a decision to stay an extra year in high school just to take advantage of extracurricular opportunities.
"It's really unfortunate also for some people who are doing a victory lap – they came back for a year just to participate in sports," she said. "And now they're being cancelled as well. People are throwing away money they've put into it."
Student parliament hospitality representative Keana Barclay said the labour disruptions have created a lot of anger and confusion within the student body, and that the hiatus on extracurricular activities means star athletes are unlikely to have a chance to prove their mettle in the upcoming Georgian Bay Secondary School Association athletics championships. Extracurricular activities, she said, are what keep many of the students on the right track academically.
"A lot of kids are really keen on participating in these because they actually help them focus better in school," she said. "For our sports teams, you can't be failing your classes, you have to have good grades. It's actually helping out students."
But even without extracurricular activities, student Darcy Deathune says she's maintaining her support for the cause her teachers are fighting for.
"We still want to respect the teachers, it's not their fault. We don't want to just be out of their classes," she said. "It's not anything they can really do about it, their hands are tied."
The protest was originally scheduled to take place a day earlier, but was postponed for a day as many school busses were halted due to a sudden downpour of freezing rain.
The protests were held on the same day that their counterparts at Gravenhurst High School did their own walkout, and took the picketing through the town's downtown core.
Thomas Ruttan, a Grade 11 student, said the protests have been well received by teachers.
"All the teachers that I have talked about are glad that we're doing it because we actually know what we're talking about, we're not just doing this … to skip class," he said.
In both high schools, students used social media to organize the events and to communicate timely information with their colleagues. Some students at Muskoka Beechgrove Public School also staged a walkout of their own.
The student protests come just one week after teachers picketed outside Parry Sound-Muskoka MPP Norm Miller's office in Bracebridge. Tomorrow (Thursday, Dec. 13), local elementary school teachers will be walking off the job in a one-day protest against the bill.

Ceiling Fan Buyer's Guide Page 13
Choosing the right ceiling fan is more than just picking the right style and color. There are some key points that you want to keep in mind so that you make sure you get the right fan- so you not only cool your room correctly and efficiently, but you get years of use and enjoyment from your fan. Use our ceiling fan guide to help pick the perfect fan for your home.
STEP 1: Ceiling Fan LocationMost fans work best in the center of a room allowing air to flow smoothly and evenly through your space. With larger rooms, you may want to use 2 fans so that the room is cooled properly and you don't over-tax a single fan. For safety reasons remember to never mount a ceiling fan over a bed.
STEP 2: Will the fan fit my room & my needs?When installing a fan you need to check the height from the floor to the blades. Make sure you consider the distance the fan hangs down from the ceiling. For safety a height of 7'-9' is recommended. If you fan does not meet the 7' recommendation you should look into a low ceiling mount. For some areas there may be building codes that require this.
STEP 3: Choose a quality ceiling fanA cheap fan is going to be more trouble than it is worth. Not only do inexpensive fans wobble, but a poor quality fan will not circulate as much air at a given RPM. While speed helps control how much air is being moved, it is blade pitch (angle between the blade and a horizontal line) and design that play a key role. A good quality fan will have a motor that allows a fan to have a greater blade pitch. Cheap fans have motors that are not strong enough to handle the air resistance associated with a greater blade pitch, so those fans will have to lower the pitch to avoid the motor from burning out. Also cheap fans produce a humming nose. A good quality fan does not always mean it will be priced unreasonably high. Compare your CFM's, motor size, and blade pitch and find a fan that has the best of all three factors and you will find yourself a winner.
What Ceiling Fan Size is Right?
It is important to choose the right size ceiling fan for your needs. This guide will help determine the correct size.
- 30" ceiling fans are for rooms up to 8' x 10" (small bedrooms, most laundry rooms,smaller kitchens)
- 42" ceiling for rooms up to 12' x 12'(medium bedrooms, most kitchens and small rec. rooms)
- 52" ceiling fans for rooms up to 18' x 20' (large bedrooms, most family rooms, most dining rooms)
Recommended Mounting by Ceiling Height
- Low Ceiling Heights: Use a hugger mount or mount without your downrod.
- Standard 8' Ceilings: Use a traditional mount with downrod.
- 9' or Higher Ceilings: Use an extended downrod
Sloped Ceiling: Use the appropriate slope ceiling adapter and extended down rod.
Consider These Tips When Choosing a New Ceiling Fan
- Ceiling Fan Rotation (more) - Ceiling fans should rotate counter clock- wise in the summer (to generate a breeze downward to cool you off) and clock-wise in the winter (to cycle the warm air that rises to your ceiling.) Do not be afraid to run your ceiling fan in the winter. You can expect a 10-15% savings on your heating bill. You can save up to 40% off your cooling bill in the summer by properly setting your ceiling fan rotation.
- The Buzz - Don't buy a multi-speed fan with only one capacitor inside its motor. A quality fan able to handle three speeds should have at least three capacitors.
- Blade Pitch - For a ceiling fan to move the right amount of air, its blades should be set at a 14 degree angle. Blades set at a 10 degree angle will simply slice the air, while blades at a 20-degree angle will meet so much resistance that the motor may burn out.
- Avoid "Huggers" - Don't fit the ceiling fan too snugly to the ceiling; doing so will prevent it from circulating air properly.
- Keep a Safe Distance - Set fan clearance at 9 feet above the floor if possible (if this is not possible, maintain a minimum clearance of 7 feet. This will help you and your family avoid injuries.
- Proper Installation - Because it's much more complicated to install a ceiling fan than a ceiling light fixture, you might want to consider having your ceiling fan put in by a licensed electrician. Ceiling fans need additional support from above and need to be anchored solidly to a stud. (fan rotation can work metal screws loose.)
- Lower your utility bill - Outfitted with a good ceiling fan, you can raise your thermostat setting and save substantially on air-conditioning costs. By reversing the direction the ceiling fan blows the air you will save in the winter as well. You can expect a 10-15% savings on your heating bill. You can save up to 40% off your cooling bill in the summer.
Ceiling Fan Blade Cleaning Tip from the PROS!
Ceiling fans are a great way to stay cool in the summer and re-circulate hot air in the winter. But those fan blades can sure collect dust over time! Cleaning them can be a pain.
Here are two clever tricks to help you keep your ceiling fan blades clean and running great
Cleaning Tips It's In The Bag!
Take an old pillow case and get it a little bit damp. Put the case over each blade one at a time (like a pillow). Then gently pull it off and you pull the dust and dirt off without having it go everywhere and it all stays in the pillowcase.
For the really dirty fans that need some extra attention take an old pair of cotton socks and dip them in some soapy water made with dish detergent. Ring them out so they are just damp. (remember we are working with an electrical fixture) Put them over your hands and then run your hands over the top and bottom of each blade. The dust will stick to the wet socks and it takes just minutes.

On August 21, 2007 President Yoweri Museveni and the Aga Khan, Prince Karim al-Hussaini, the spiritual leader of the Ismaili Muslims, laid the foundation stone for the Bujagali hydropower dam on the River Nile in a show of commitment to address Uganda's energy deficit.
The 250 MW project, co-financed by the World Bank Group, is a major component of Uganda's answer to the electricity supply gap that in recent years has made rolling blackouts a daily reality for Uganda's residents, businesses and services.

Discovery Request by Defendants Will Demonstrate That Imam is Not the Real Plaintiff - Copyright Lawsuit - 2010-07-31Posted July 31st, 2010 by heritage
Request by the Defendants for Discovery Would Help the Plaintiff Win
The Plaintiff's Lawyer, Mr. Gray informed the Defendants that he advised the Imam NOT to attend for Discovery, which prompted the Defendants to question, why would counsel advise against a five-minute meeting to end the case and instead continue toward 10 or more full days' worth of legal proceedings other than to earn excess fees... Hence the bringing of the Motion by the Defendants to stay all cross-examinations until it can be confirmed if the Imam is really behind the litigation.

The 2006 event drew Kyle Busch, Ricky Craven, Denny Ha m lin a nd JJ Yeley. The race in 2007 saw Terry Labonte and Kevin Lepage challenge the Late Model pilots. In 2008, Kevin Harvick raised the bar for the NASCAR crowd, winning the event. The 2009 event saw a Wallace family invasion, with Rusty as the Grand Marshall and Kenny and Steven competing on the track. Breakout Cup star Brad Keselowski competed in 2010.

It is not often that the number of cars failing to make the race is higher than the number that do. This is why many say that qualifying alone is worth the price of admission. The qualifying format for the TD Bank 250 consists of Heat Races, Consolation Races and multiple Last Chance Races. It is possible for a driver to qualify by virtue of placing in the top four of his 15 lap heat race, or, for the less fortunate, run 55 laps without ever making the show. Below is the qualifying procedure for the TD Bank 250. THE DRAW Determines starting position in Heat race Each driver's name is added to a list when they roll their cars through pre-race inspection. That list is used to determine t he order of "T he Draw." A member from each team must plunge their digits into a bucket containing up to 150 numbered chips. A simple task that could mean the difference between sitting in the drivers seat ... or the grandstands. Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal photo Patrick Laperle, back, passes Kyle Busch in the early stages of the Saturday night race last year during the TD Bank 250 weekend of racing. test of skill and determination. Expect to see plenty of paintswapping and torn sheet metal as these races are not intended for the faint of heart. 6 HEAT RACES Top 4 Qualify (positions 1-24) Heat races are an intense and ner ve-w rack i ng ex per ience. One 15-lap race will set the tone for your day. Finish in the top four and you have a few hours to prepare for one of the biggest races of your life. Fail to do so and chances are you'll be scrambling right up until the main event. 3 LAST CHANCE QUALIFIERS Only the winner qualifies (positions 34-36) Talk about pressure. It's a race where second-place will earn you a seat in the grandstands. The winner is presented with a buyout option at the end: Take a $1,500 check and a seat in the stands or start at the rear of the field. And don't count out the winner of this race.

This story was updated with full details at 4:45 p.m. Friday, Oct. 8
KCET, the most prominent public TV station in Southern California for the past 40 years, announced Friday it will leave the PBS network at the end of the year and no longer carry such popular programs as "Masterpiece Theater," "Sesame Street," "Frontline" and "Nova."
Instead, the Los Angeles-based KCET plans to become an independent public television station, providing programming from sources other than PBS, according its president, Al Jerome.
The move opens the door for KOCE, the Huntington Beach-based PBS affiliate, to take a much bigger role in the presentation of PBS programs, KOCE president Mel Rogers said Friday.
"They've done a good job for public television over the years," Rogers said of KCET. "And it's time for us to step into the breach. We assume we'll be picking up the majority of that.
"We also have two other PBS stations in the market (KLSC in Los Angeles and KVCR in Riverside)," Rogers said. "Obviously we'll be taking the lead role that KCET had, and work closely with our partners at those other two stations to make sure that viewers continue to get the programs they love."
In the end, it was money that served as the wedge that drove KCET and PBS to split, both sides said Friday.
Jerome said the station had seen its dues rise from $5 million in 2005 to $7 million in 2009, a figure that PBS would not reduce even after the station argued that the economic downturn's impact on fundraising made it impossible to pay.
"We ran out of time," Jerome said. "We were at an impasse with them. And we said this is where we're going to be: we're going to be an independent station."
A statement from PBS agreed that dues – and KCET's attempts to reduce them – were at the heart of the issue.
"At issue were KCET's repeated requests that it be allowed to operate as a PBS member station without abiding by PBS policies and paying the corresponding dues," the PBS statement read in part.
What it means for viewers of shows such as "American Masters," "Antiques Roadshow" and "PBS Newshour" remains to be sorted out, but Rogers said he believes KOCE can take over much of that role – and viewership – with help from the other two PBS affiliates in the region.
KCET had been the "full service" PBS station, Rogers explained, meaning that it got to run all the big national shows on the nights they made their national premieres, and also got all the national promotion that went with them. Stations such as KOCE often had to wait weeks to air the same programs.
"We're not going to enforce those delays," Rogers said of the way in which he believes KOCE will work with KLCS and KVCR in the future. "We're going to try to work in a coordinated way with those other stations, so that it's easy to find those shows and we can cross-promote the shows, too."
KOCE's bigger role as a PBS affiliate will mean it will have to raise more money and pay more dues to PBS, Rogers said.>

Writes letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh
Strongly objecting to certain aspects of the Direct Benefits Transfer (DBT) scheme and the manner of its operationalisation, Chief Minister Jayalalithaa on Saturday made it clear that the Central DBT in its present form should not be implemented in the State.
In a letter to the Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, she urged him to move over to a DBT scheme through the State Government, which would not only make the rollout faster and more efficient, but also enable this mechanism to be extended seamlessly to other schemes like Social Security Pension disbursement, which were not currently included in the list of 25 schemes to be covered at present. "This would give the State Governments their rightful place as equal partners in the governance of the country and not reduce them to becoming vassals in the structure of governance," she wrote.
Ms.Jayalalithaa said that the Centre had decided to operationalise the second phase of the DBT scheme from July 1. Ariyalur, Pudukottai and Tiruchirappalli districts were proposed to be included in Phase I of the rollout of the scheme. She conveyed her strong objections to some aspects and the manner of its operationalisation as they were clearly intended to bypass democratically elected State Governments. "They insidiously seek to secure for the Government of India unnecessary influence and authority over the finances of the States."
She said Tamil Nadu had already adopted Direct Cash Transfer through bank accounts of beneficiaries for schemes involving conditional cash transfers like scholarships, maternity benefits and social security pensions. The State strongly opposed any move to monetise and transfer in cash the subsidy element under the PDS and fertiliser, kerosene and LPG subsidies, where not just the quantum of subsidy, but the access to and timely availability of commodities was a concern. "We are equally opposed to the direct transfer of cash to the bank accounts of the beneficiaries by the Government of India bypassing the State Governments altogether." This was neither an administratively sound practice nor in keeping with the spirit of federalism.
The Chief Minister said the Union Planning Commission had issued a series of instructions and guidelines on a number of conceptual and operational issues relating to DBT with virtually no consultation with the State Governments. Once decisions were taken and the scheme was finalised unilaterally by the Centre, the States were required only to place their field machinery at the disposal of the Central Government to implement the mechanism. "Are the State Governments expected to look on as mere bystanders, far removed from the process of administering the scheme, after having placed their entire field machinery at the disposal of the Government of India? This is clearly an infringement of the authority of the State Governments and totally violative of the federal polity of the country and the spirit of democratic decentralisation," she said.

Maria Naryshkina, Princess Sviatopolk-Chetvertinskaya
Maria Naryshkina, nee Princess Sviatopolk-Chetvertinskaya (February 2, 1779 – September 6, 1854) was the wife of Chief Master of the Hunt D.L. Naryshkin, mistress of the Tsar Alexander I of Russia.
Maria married 37-year-old Dmitry Naryshkin when she was 16 years old.
In 1799, she entered into a relationship with Alexander, who became tsar in 1801, with her spouse's approval. She is described as fascinating and charming, with the ability to attract people, and called "The Aspasia of the North" and the "Primadonna of the Russia".
Alexander was persuaded to leave her in 1818 and went back to his spouse Elizabeth Alexeievna (Louise of Baden).
Alexander I has been living with Maria Naryshkina for 15 years (de facto) and they had two daughters and a son.
– Zinaida Naryshkina (d. 18 May 1810).
– Sophia Naryshkina (1808 – 18 June 1824).
– Emanuel Naryshkin (30 July 1813 – 31 December 1901).
Maria wanted Aleksandr to marry her, but she failed.

Regretting that she did not get a chance to work with late filmmaker Rituparno Ghosh, actress Vidya Balan Thursday said she would like to work in a Bengali movie.
"When I was driving to the hotel from the airport, I was thinking of Rituda because I used to have a conversation with him almost on every visit that we will work together for a movie, but that did not happen. But I'm sure I will do another Bengali film," Vidya told reporters on the sidelines of a promotional event of her forthcoming movie "Ghanchakkar" here.
Vidya made her celluloid debut with a Bengali movie "Bhalo Theko".
A patient of pancreatitis, Ghosh died May 30 following cardiac arrest. He was 49.
Directed by Rajkumar Gupta, "Ghanchakkar" hits theatres June 28 and also stars Emraan Hashmi as the male lead.
