Biz to decide the cent's worth
Merchants may still accept copper
OTTAWA -- The penny took another step Monday on what could be a long road to extinction, with businesses given the short-term power of deciding whether they want to keep accepting them.
The Royal Canadian Mint officially ended its distribution of one-cent coins to financial institutions. But businesses can still accept the copper pieces as long as they choose, says Shelly Glover, the parliamentary secretary to Finance Minister Jim Flaherty.
"Pennies will retain their value indefinitely so they can continue to be used as long as they are available, and with businesses that are willing to accept them," Glover said at a Shoppers Drug Mart in Ottawa.
Flaherty announced the demise of the penny nearly a year ago as a cost-saving measure as the mint was spending more to make pennies than they were worth. The last penny made came out of the mint's Winnipeg facility in May of last year.
Retailers who decide to no longer accept pennies as part of cash payments will have to round up or down to the nearest five cents.
"When pennies are not available, cash payments will need to adapt," said Glover.
As an example, if a cash purchase totals $1.61 or $1.62, a retailer who doesn't want to deal with pennies would charge a customer $1.60. If the purchase adds up to $2.28 or $2.29, the customer would be charged $2.30.
The government calls it symmetrical rounding.
Essentially, any final cash amount that ends with a 1, 2, 6 or 7 would be rounded down to the nearest five- or 10-cent increment. Purchase totals ending in 3, 4, 8 and 9 would be rounded up.
Electronic purchases, such as those online or using debit or credit cards, will still be billed to the cent.
And businesses are being encouraged to stop using pennies, to make the transition work smoothly.
The Retail Council of Canada says it's ready, with its members given an extension of the time they needed to adapt to the change.
"We have worked collaboratively alongside departmental officials to help develop tools for our members to use during the phase-out," said Diane Brisebois, the council's president and CEO.
The government has also taken to social-media websites to let consumers and businesses know how to deal with the phase-out.
Renée Gruszecki, a Halifax academic and archivist, has spent the past year making a living through a jewelry business devoted primarily to preserving the country's stray cents.
About 30,000 strategically sorted pennies fill Gruszecki's home and eventually find their way into the accessories produced at Coin Coin Designs and Co.
Gruszecki, a longtime collector of lucky pennies, believes her pieces will help preserve a symbol that is both an object of superstition and a Canadian icon.
"The Maple Leaf is synonymous with everything Canadian. We all identify with it," she said. "Now it's just no longer going to be present among us, so I'm saddened by that."
The Bank of Canada's currency museum has taken steps to preserve the penny's place in Canadian culture. A mural consisting of nearly 16,000 one-cent pieces has been assembled at the museum to commemorate the coin's history.

The truth is that western society is really fucking destructive. Just fucking look around if you don't believe me. Look at the BP Oil Spill that could have fucked us all up. And why the fuck are they getting oil out of the earth anyway? We don't need to use that fucking shit to survive. Why do you think there is all of these earthquakes and tsunamis? It's because of mining. Plain and simple. And getting oil out is the worst. Oil is the earth's natural coolant. Expect a lot more fucking volcanos and earthquakes if we continue getting oil out. BOYCOTT ALL OIL AND PETROL NOW. Fuck money, fuck luxuries. Are we all going to sit on our asses and let the big corporate fuckwits doom us all? Probably. But we shouldn't! What's so good about western society? Why is everyone all depressed and shit? Why is everyone latching on to fake identities like Emo, Goth, Cakeface etc if western society is so good? Right now it's a really pathetic and fucking disgusting place to live. Natives never caused ANYWHERE NEAR as much environmental damage as western society has. Why wouldn't you want to live free like how the natives did for thousands of years? Are you a pussy? Probably. But you shouldn't be! You can either be a brain dead, useless, party-goer, drunk, sex-crazed fucking retard, or you can look after this planet and all of its life. Your call. Anyway I'm going to try living in the bush for 2 weeks straight like how my great great great great grandparents used to live. Fuck my job and fuck this university. Pointless fucking crap. Over and out. Oh one last thing…FREEEEEEEEEEEDOM!!!!!!!!!!

– WWE Superstar Heath Slater has not won a match on WWE programming since the July 28th Superstars when he beat Trent Baretta.
Slater, who was suspended for failing a Wellness test back in October, lost to Sheamus on this week's SmackDown and finished 2011 with an 18-match losing streak for WWE TV and pay-per-view events.
The suspension and losing streak weren't Slater's only troubles in 2011. Back in late June, Atlanta security guard Corinne Oliver filed a police report against him claiming that he assaulted her in a hotel during WrestleMania 27 weekend. The news broke in early August that police were investigating Slater for the allegations but no charges were ever filed and we haven't heard anything since.

im ready to get crazy and take my wig off
I just ate 10 fun sized 3 musakteers.. I'm pretty sure I'm about to start my period.
At the doctor. They're doing a flu test now. He was like "where do you think you got this?" I said "bachelor party. Strippers." he goes "okaaaay I'll put 'other'."
Just paid for that girls abortion on my dad's black card. I feel like P-Diddy.
I am the poster child for what not to do during sex. Soon they will be calling an undesired position after me
Just saw a bouncer shoot a stripper with a squirt gun. He looked at me n said,"gotta keep em in check." I'm in love with this place
They called it unicorn pee, and i thought that was interesting so i drank it. Please don't let me drink strangers booze again.
Remember when I got my car stuck in my backyard?
Hey, is this going to be a real date, or am I just meeting you at a hotel to have sex in the bathroom? Given our history, I think it's a fair question.
My ex was there, the 2 girls I'm seeing showed up and I had a pocket full of VIP passes 2 the strip club. Had all the makings of an epic night but I fell asleep at the bar.
well he somehow got his hand stuck in some bike spokes trying to reach for a blunt he dropped and that's NOT the reason he's in the hospital...?
All I'm saying is that any 24 year old guy who sends me a snapchat from the vantage point of his dick with the caption "hiding behind my weiner" is off my list potentially dateable guys.
I'm just opting for alcohol abuse, ramen and cuddling with my dog for now.
Brett got me a cake with a pic of me shitting

Product description
Presented as a miraculous cure-all, Tono-Bungay is in fact nothing other than a pleasant-tasting liquid with no positive effects. Nonetheless, when the young George Ponderevo is employed by his Uncle Edward to help market this ineffective medicine, he finds his life overwhelmed by its sudden success. Soon, the worthless substance is turned into a formidable fortune, as society becomes convinced of the merits of Tono-Bungay through a combination of skilled advertising and public credulity. As the newly rich George discovers, however, there is far more to class in England than merely the possession of wealth.

Author information
H.G. Wells was a professional writer and journalist, who published more than a hundred books, including novels, histories, essays and programmes for world regeneration. Wells's prophetic imagination was first displayed in pioneering works of science fiction, but later he became an apostle of socialism, science and progress. His controversial views on sexual equality and the shape of a truly developed nation remain directly relevant to our world today. He was, in Bertrand Russell's words, 'an important liberator of thought and action'. Edward Mendelson is a writer and critic with a particular interest in W.H. Auden. Patrick Parrinder has written on H.G. Wells, science fiction, James Joyce and the history of the English novel. Since 1986 he has been Professor of English at the University of Reading.
Review quote
Wells is less a man of letters than a literature. Jorge Luis Borges"

ISLAMABAD Pakistani fighter jets pounded suspected militant hideouts near the Afghan border on Thursday in response to a spate of attacks around the country, the army said, in the first aerial operation against Taliban insurgents in two months.
The operation came despite efforts by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's government to engage the Taliban in talks to end years of fighting with an insurgency seeking to topple the democratically elected government in the capital Islamabad.
"Terrorist hideouts were engaged by fighter jets in Khyber agency early (in the) morning today," the army's press wing said in a text message sent to media.
It said it was a response to a number of recent attacks against police and civilians in Islamabad and Peshawar, a volatile Pakistani city near the Khyber tribal agency.
A senior military official in Peshawar said the operation, which started early on Thursday, was still under way.
"After the jets, Pakistan army ground forces also launched operations in the area," he said.
Another military official said at least 15 militants were killed, but there was no official confirmation.
Last week the Pakistani Taliban - a loose alliance of militant groups separate from but allied to the Afghan Taliban - formally ended a 40-day ceasefire but attempts to resume talks have continued nonetheless.
Representatives of both sides met in Islamabad on Wednesday, agreeing to pave the way for the next round of negotiations aimed at finding a compromise that would convince the Taliban to lay down their weapons.

I guess I was raised in a CL household - I don't think my parents ever called it that though. They considered themselves hippies, and I don't say that disparagingly as it's what they cheerfully call themselves.
Anyway, I didn't particularly like growing up that way, so I raise my children considerably differently; I guess the "benevolent dictator" style.
I make most of the decisions, although now that my oldest is a teenager she makes more of her own, but they are smaller day-to-day decisions, nothing life-altering.
This is what works for our family. I assume other parents are also doing what works for their family.
It is so fascinating to me how families switch back and forth like this – I am curious though what you didn't like about the way you were raised?

|My parents let me do whatever I wanted, as long as it didn't bother anybody else.
As a strong CC parent, I buck against some ideas as they are not "natural" in continuum families. Negotiations, as mentioned, being the strongest point, but there are others. How does a CL family consolidate the CC aspects in their life? CC cultures are hierarchical, so before someone says they are not mutually exclusive, let me assure you they are in certain ways.
They aren't stresses, depressed, or overwhemed with responsibility. I dont talk to them about if we are going to pay the bills that month or buy groceries. I dont talk to them about what kind of car we are going to buy, nor do I demand their "responsibility" in keeping the house clean beyond what they choose to pitch in and do on their own accord.
I am a breastfeeding mama. I formula feed though, because I choose to. Breastfeeding can be dangerous ya know? I mean, what if xyz times 10, exponent 7 happened, then a person couldn't breastfeed anyway, and if they did they wouldnt really be breastfeeding because they had on a nipple shield and so therefor they aren't breastfeeding, so ultimately there are situation in which EVERY person would have to formula feed, and formula is better for you then breastmilk anyway. What? I'm not putting down breastfeeding! I myself breastfeed!"
I. A consensual solution in one family may simply be "you need this to help you." and the child finding comfort and going through with it simply because they trust their parents judgement.
This thread has been mostly respectful and productive, but if your way of life works for you, why do you need to understand another form of parenting? what I see is some people (not you, you seem open minded) trying to understand it in a certain way, and unwilling to understand it in any other way - a way that builds up their own parenting choices by putting down another, instead of respecting there is more then one "right" way. .
I'm speaking for churndash here, which isn't a good thing but I think I can relate... the way I see how that can be negative AND consensual is that a child will always choose freedom, and exploration, over rules and answering to another. They may worry and feel burdened, but still choose that over "not eating all the icecream I want", if you catch my drift. I get that out of this simple statement:
whatever she "wanted". She wanted to do those things, but in hindsight perhaps recognised what that stress was she felt at the same time.
It's also why I think asking a child if they like their freedom is fruitless because if they can do what they want they're going to say "yes" because only the very mature and logic based thinker (8+ years) is going to say "actually, I do think that a little more structure would be more appropriate and ease a certain sense of responsibility I don't think I am developmentally ready for yet."
A consensual solution in one family may simply be "you need this to help you." and the child finding comfort and going through with it simply because they trust their parents judgement.
Single mom to Rain (1/93) , grad student, and world traveler
I'm seeing it more like "I'm a breastfeeding mama who sometimes needs to use formula because of [insert some compelling issue here...how about low supply and lack of access to donor milk]. Can we breastfeeding mamas admit that there might be times when a mama might actually need to use formula and not accuse her of being lazy or poisoning her child? Can we say that sometimes there just might not be an alternative to formula and that that is okay?" I could be wrong though.
That has been our approach, and dd is willing to trust our judgment on the issue. The phrasing includes "need to"--which is something that I've been questioning on this thread. I can understand CL a lot better if "must, need to, must not" are used sometimes, but have a difficult time understanding how we can effectively communicate without them.
Academic curiosity? Really! That is mostly what I do on MDC, explore other ideas for the sake of exploration.
Also, while we see improvement from defining direct boundaries with dd, we still have challenges. I am always open to finding new ways to relate to her (which is why I was willing to try the "kid decision" "adult decision" approach at age 6 to begin with, when she was struggling with anxiety under our previously more democratic atmosphere).
I've learned and believe that there are no "must" and "must not", especially as directed by mainstream medical professionals.
It is right to live 100% consensually.
It is right to have a hierarchy, that uses consensual techniques.
it is right to have total hierarchy.
Anyone like to share their ideas/opinions on why having veto power is a bad thing? And what their opinion is based on? And vice versa, anyone who believes having veto power is necessary or better, why?

Tweetbot for Mac alpha pulled, Tapbot blames Twitter
The developers behind Tweetbot for Mac, the Mac desktop software version of the popular paid-for Twitter iOS app, has been forced to pull the application because of new changes brought in by Twitter.
In a move that shows the effects the new changes that limit third-party developers have to deal with, the company behind the app, Tapbot, has admitted that it can't offer the app any more.
"As some of you may have already noticed, the download link for the Tweetbot for Mac alpha no longer works," the company says on its official blog. "Twitter's latest API Changes means now we have a large but finite limit on the number of user tokens we can get for Tweetbot for Mac."
According to the company, it has been working with Twitter over the past few days to try to work around this limit for the duration of the beta, but has been unable to come up with an acceptable solution.
Hands-on: Tweetbot for Mac review
Twitter has started to clamp down on what third-party apps such as Tweetbot can and can't do as it looks to claw back users to its official apps to allow it to greater control of revenues.
Twitter announced earlier in August that it would limit all third-party apps to just 100,000 users, or twice the number of users they already have.
The developers say that allowing people to use of one of those "valuable" tokens merely to "trial" the software means they lose that token forever, something it doesn't want to do because it plans to sell Tweetbot for Mac in the future.
"Tweetbot for Mac will still be available for sale in the near future, we are just stopping the public part of the alpha/beta testing," the company has been forced to tell prospective users.

text: I was emailed by Shopbop today that they have a new lookbook from Vera Wang and what an interesting lookbook that is! We are all familiar with Vera's femininity and romantic style, but Vera goes Gothic? now that's a sight we must see. Therefore I decided to pick several looks that I think worth to drool for. From her luxurious and alluring dresses to playful yet eccentric accessories. Everything is nicely packed to suit your "gothic" mood. I must say I love the fact that she combines both floral and sequins at the same time. Not only do they match beautifully but also adds the sense of girly and mysterious.

Movie Reviews

Wed December 3, 2003
Those who long to be in touch with poetic icons of the last century will welcome whatever bits of insight it gives.
By John DeSando, WCBE's "It's Movie Time
"Sylvia" is an engaging biopic of poet Sylvia Plath's emotional juggernaut marriage to poet Ted Hughes. It reminds me of artists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera in the also emotionally rich "Frida." But in neither case do we ever get an understanding of how the artists actually construct their art from their minds and their lives. Perhaps that exploration can never be done in film.
The emotion in "Sylvia" is fully fleshed with Gwyneth Paltrow seeming to channel the beautiful but disturbed author of the poetry collections "Colossus" and "Ariel" as well as the popular novel "Bell Jar." Never does the actress overact, even in her desperate, suicidal moments as she envisions an unfaithful Hughes. Her infrequent forays outside of her cottage or apartment let us breathe in other, less convoluted characters like Michael Gambon's helping but helpless downstairs neighbor.
When it comes down to it, Sylvia is the subject as she is of her poems. The first words of the film are from her "Lady Lazarus": "Dying is an art." New Zealand Director Christine Jeffs prepares us for Plath's artful death with Gabriel Yared's original and telegraphing scoring and cinematographer John Toon's somber and symbolic colors.
Comparing this film with last year's "Hours," starring Nicole Kidman as Virginia Woolf, leads me to conclude I had an easier time understanding Woolf's life than I did Plath's, yet I felt Plath's insanity much more clearly in "Sylvia," if I did not completely understand it.
It's hard to tell in Plath's own life whether writer's block or plain old jealousy led to her suicide; this film weighs in on sex jealousy. And that, of course, reminds me of the quintessential sex-jealousy drama of all time, "Othello":
O beware my lord, of jealousy!
It is the green-ey'd monster which doth mock
The meat it feds on.
This dark drama, bordering on melodrama, is not for everyone. But those who long to be in touch with poetic icons of the last century will welcome whatever bits of insight it gives.
John DeSando teaches film at Franklin University and co-hosts WCBE's "It's Movie Time," which can be heard streaming at www.wcbe.org Fridays at 3:01 pm and 8:01 pm.

WASHINGTON — PBS officials say hackers have cracked the public TV broadcaster's website, posting a phony story claiming dead rapper Tupac Shakur was alive in New Zealand, and a group that claimed responsibility for the hacking complained about the network's recent investigative news program on WikiLeaks.
PBS confirmed early Monday morning on its official Twitter account that the website had been hacked. The phony story had been taken down as of Monday morning. It had been posted on the site of the "PBS NewsHour" program, which is produced by WETA-TV in Arlington, Virginia.
The Wikileaks report appeared on a different PBS show, "Frontline."
Anne Bentley, PBS' vice president of corporate communications, said in an email that erroneous information posted on the website has been corrected. The hackers also posted login information for two internal PBS sites: one that media use to access the PBS press room and an internal communications website for stations, she said. She said all affected parties were being notified.
David Fanning, executive producer of "Frontline," said he was learning of the hacking early Monday, nearly a week after the program aired its "WikiSecrets" documentary about the leak of U.S. diplomatic cables to the WikiLeaks website. The documentary, produced by WGBH-TV in Boston, generated criticism and debate on the program's website in recent days from those sympathetic to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and from those who thought the program was fair, Fanning said.
"Frontline" producers hear impassioned responses all the time, Fanning said. Having a group attack the PBS website over a news program was unusual but "probably not unexpected," he said.
"From our point of view, we just see it as a disappointing and irresponsible act, especially since we have been very open to publishing criticism of the film ... and the film included other points of view," Fanning said. "This kind of action is irresponsible and chilling."
A tweet from the "NewsHour" Twitter account said: "If you missed it: our site has been accessed by hackers. Thanks for staying with us."
A group calling itself LulzSec and "The Lulz Boat" on Twitter claimed responsibility and posted links to other hacks, including a video apparently taunting the network. Taunting messages were also posted on the group's Twitter page targeting the PBS program "Frontline." One message said the group recently saw the "WikiSecrets" show and was "less than impressed."
The timing of the hacking was provocative: Sunday marked the one-year anniversary of the detention of Army Pfc. Bradley Manning, who's accused of passing thousands of classified documents to WikiLeaks.
PBS ombudsman Michael Getler wrote about the "WikiSecrets" documentary in his weekly column Thursday, saying it had generated only a handful of complaints, though he had expected more mail from viewers.
"This may be a good thing for Frontline if it suggests that most viewers found the program to be in keeping with Frontline's reputation for fair yet tough reporting," Getler wrote.
Getler raised some questions about the reporting in the program but said he found the questioning by interviewer Martin Smith to be "tough but proper."

Fox News Host: "Go Try And Hire A Male Journalist — You Can't Find Any!"
This is exactly how Fox News' Outnumbered is supposed to work.
Daily Caller founder Tucker Carlson got into a heated debate with the hosts of Outnumbered about how equal pay played into the New York Times' decision to fire executive editor Jill Abramson, which Carlson called, "greatest story ever."
Carlson stepped into it almost immediately with Outnumbered's female hosts when he said, "I'm employer of a lot of people. If you adjust for amount of uninterrupted time spent in the work place, women make more than men in almost every category."
"Go try and hire a male journalist. You can't find any!" he added.
After feeling the heat from his colleagues, Carlson protested that he was "pro-women."

TheWeekender: Phish digs deep in Hershey [Review]
photo courtesy of Justin Wendt [Hershey '10]
Coming back from the set break, Phish jumped into its more experimental side with a straight-ahead take on the chestnut "Drowned" from The Who's rock opera "Quadrophenia." The song set the pace for the ferociousness of the second set, which included a perfect segue into the always-enjoyable "Tweezer." With most of the show taking from Phish' '80s and '90s catalogues, by the next cut, a tight "Twist" from 2000's 'Farmhouse," it was clear to see the band wanted to give fans a taste of all of its albums — but it was the older material that ultimately took control of the night.
With some leadership from Gordon, "Piper" beautifully ran into a funky version of "Free," which showcased drummer Jon Fishman's tight grooves. "Wading in the Velvet Sea" brought some much-deserved attention to keyboardist Page McConnell, who was mostly quiet throughout earlier proceedings. Judging from the sound of the second set, and watching the prior two nights setlists, it was almost understood there was going to be some inclusion of the epic crowd favorite "You Enjoy Myself." True to form, the band put in an exploratory 18-minute version, complete with some funky jamming, the legendary trampoline jumping of Anastasio and Gordon — something everyone needs to see — and a spacey vocal jam which also brought on one of the best light shows of the evening.

We were new moving into the area and Carla at Malcolms was the only agent who took the time to talk us through our choices. Always a smile, always time to chat about different housing options.

After meeting Alex at our valuation, I was left with the impression that he understood our reasons for moving and what we wanted to do. Combining this with Alex's knowledge of the property market I felt confident that Malcolms could deliver what we needed.
That turned out to be true when 10 days later our house was sold. If a friend was telling me they wanted to sell their house, I would say they should use Malcolms.J. Wood

American ApparelRead MoreThe brand American Apparel, which recently celebrated its 10-year anniversary, conjures up images of stylish and well-fitting fashion basics. It also likely brings to mind sassy advertisements featuring long-haired beauties in natural makeup posing in skin-bearing bodysuits and loungewear. But what many don't know about the brand—despite its name and the slice of apple pie that comes with every purchase—is that all of its clothes are made in America. Everything from sewing and cutting to accounting and marketing happens in one building in downtown Los Angeles, and the rest occurs within a 30-mile radius. Not only that, every slim-fitting pair of pants, spandex bodysuit, and v-neck T-shirt is made in a sweatshop-free environment. Plus, keeping everything in house means the company eliminates unnecessary and wasteful factors, such as shipping fuel and packing materials, as well as provides jobs to Angelenos, instead of outsourcing them.3867 4th Ave.San Diego, CA US

Taste and ThirstRead MoreThough located on the edge of the historic Gaslamp District, Taste and Thirst draws in its clientele with a distinctly modern atmosphere. The lounge and bar's low lighting and flat-screen TVs cast patrons in a dreamlike glow as they revel from the morning until late at night. Early in the day, kitchen staff prepare breakfast with french toast, piquant omelets, and bottomless mimosas. They also craft traditional pub food such as burgers piled with cheese and house sauce, truffle fries and tater tots, and wings dressed up in nine styles of glaze. Throughout the day, illuminated by the festive white lights wrapped around the bar's pillars, bartenders sling drinks from a refreshing menu of domestic beers and cocktails.715 4th Ave.San Diego, CA US

Title: Bluebonnet a weed?
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:Is the bluebonnet a weed?
The short answer to that is "no." To us, a weed is a plant that is not where it belongs. Bluebonnets and other native plants are growing now pretty much where they have always grown, because they CAN grow there. If someone comes along and plants a non-native that has no natural enemies in terms of insects or disease in the area, it could be considered a weed, and if it starts to take over and crowd out the native plants, it becomes an invasive weed. Just because a plant is growing wild, not with any help from humans, sprouting, blooming, seeding and beginning the whole cycle over again, doesn't make it a weed. We suggest you read this article on Why Use Native Plants? to help you get a feel for what plants belong and what plants don't.
