February's theme
The Avro Arrow
The Avro Arrow, a Canadian designed and built prototype jet fighter interceptor, was at the cutting edge of aircraft technology in the 1950s.
At its peak in 1959, A.V. Roe Ltd. (Avro) and its sister company, Orenda, employed more than 15,000 IAM members in Local Lodges 1922, 717, 2030 and 717T. Avro was the third largest corporation in the country and more than 45,000 Canadian workers had a connection to the Arrow project.
Arrow prototypes reached speeds of Mach 1.96 and their newly designed, Canadian engines promised to set new world speed records. But it was not to be.
On February 20, 1959, blaming cost overruns and changing needs, the federal government cancelled the project. In one afternoon, 45,000 Canadians — including 15,000 Machinists — lost their jobs and a dream. A source of national pride was erased, along with Canada's status as a world leader in aviation.
Since its inception in 1997, the Toronto Aerospace Museum has dreamed of an Arrow replica as its centerpiece exhibit. In 2006, the dream was realized, partly thanks to the experience of Peter Allnutt, a flight-test mechanic on the original Arrow and former shop steward with LL717.
"I was proud to be a part of it then and I'm proud to be part of this one," he said.
IAM Local Lodges chartered in the month of February:
February 1: LL544, Cornerbrook NL (1956); LL1788, Batawa ON (1944); LL2418, Newcastle NB (1971)
February 2: LL2332, Sault Ste. Marie ON (1968)
February 10: LL741, Winnipeg MB (1941)
February 21: LL771, Fort Frances ON (1947)
February 26: LL922, Sherbrooke QC (1952)
February 27: LL1722, Edmonton AB (1945)
Labour leader James McLachlan was born in Scotland and died in Glace Bay, NS in 1937. He immigrated to Canada in 1902. McLachlan served as secretary-treasurer of the United Mine Workers of America. During the First World War, he secured collective bargaining rights for coal miners in Nova Scotia. McLachlan also participated in numerous Cape Breton mining strikes throughout the 1920's. He founded the Maritime Labor Herald in 1921, and edited the Nova Scotia Miner from 1929 to 1936. McLachlan was a member of the Socialist Party of Canada, the Independent Labour Party of Nova Scotia and the Communist Party of Canada. From 1933 to 1936 he served as president of the Workers Unity League. For more information please see this article in the Canadian Encyclopedia
In 1928 the Hollinger Gold Mine outside Timmins was the largest of its kind in North America. On the morning of February 10, over 900 men were at work in the mine. A heap of trash caught fire, which spread throughout the mine, killing 39. The subsequent Royal Commission of presided over by Supreme Court Justice T. E. Godson lead to improvements in safety including proper storage of wastes, as well as a newly established Ontario Mine Rescue Station in 1929. For more information please see this article in the Timmins Times.
This three-way conflict involved Fall Power and Paper Company, its employees, and local farmers. The farmers sold fibre to Spruce Falls. When the Spruce Falls workers went on strike, the farmers continued this arrangement. The strikers decided to take action against the farmers whom they believed were interfering with their union. Strikers physically blocked farmers from delivering fibre, and violence ensued. Farmers shot and killed 3 men and wounded 8 more. After the deaths, the provincial Ministry of Labour took over strike negotiations and resolved the dispute. The courts ultimately found one hundred and thirty-eight strikers guilty and they were bailed out by their union. The farmers were arrested and charged with various counts short of murder. For more information please see this article in the Kapuskasing Times.
Kathleen Wynne was born in 1953 in Toronto. She has a background in mediation, education, and community activism. While Conservative Premier Mike Harris was in power, Wynne founded Citizens for Local Democracy to fight the provincially imposed amalgamation of Metro Toronto. She also fought education cuts as part of the Ontario Education Alliance. Wynne was elected school trustee in 2000. She was elected to provincial parliament as a Liberal in 2003, and re-elected in 2007, 2011, and 2014. Wynne has served as Minister of Education, Transportation, Municipal Affairs and Housing, and Aboriginal Affairs. In January 2013 she won the Liberal party leadership, and was elected premier that February. After the NDP and the Conservatives voted against the budget, an election was called and Wynne was elected as Premier again with a majority in June 2014. For more information please see this article in the Canadian Encyclopedia
This strike over tuition fee increases lasted from February to September and is the longest of its kind in both Quebec and Canada. It began when over 60,000 students formed a temporary coalition called CLASSE (Coalition large de l'Association pour une solidarité syndicale étudiante, or "Broad Coalition of the Association for Student Union Solidarity"). They were soon joined by the Fédération étudiante collégiale du Québec (FECQ) and the Fédération étudiante universitaire du Québec (FEUQ). 310,000 out of 400,000 post-secondary students in the province went on the strike. There were demonstrations throughout the province, some of which became violent. In May the National Assembly passed controversial Bill 78, which would ultimately force students back to school and limit their ability to protest legally. On August 1 the Jean Charest government called an election. The student strike was at the forefront. The Parti Québécois ran on the platform of repealing Bill 78 and cancelling the tuition fee increase. They were elected and followed through on their promise. For more information please see this article in the Canadian Encyclopedia.
5,000 Quebec miners at mostly American-owned operations went on an illegal strike as members of the Confederation of National Trades Unions (CCCL). The strike was over wages and working conditions. It was part of larger conflicts and a tense political conflict within the province, as the vast majority of the workers were Francophone while management and owners were Anglophone. Conservative Premier Maurice Duplessis was against Unions. The strikers had the support of the Roman Catholic Church. The strike ended with only a few demands met. It is viewed as a precursor to Quebec's Quiet Revolution. For more information please see this this article in the Canadian Encyclopedia and this article from the Canadian Museum for Human Rights.
When male tailors at Eaton's were asked to perform hat was perceived as unskilled womens' work for not additional pay they went on strike. For more information please see this this article from the Torontoist.
The Ocean Ranger, at the time the largest oil rig in the world, capsized and sank off the coast of Newfoundland during a powerful storm. It was under contract to Mobil Oil Canada Ltd and owned by the New Orleans-based Ocean Drilling and Exploration Co (ODECO). After the sinking a Federal-Provincial Royal Commission was established to examine the disaster and the causes behind it. The Commission led to drastic improvements in training and safety. For more information please see this this article in the Canadian Encyclopedia
During the Second World War, the Canadian Privy Council developed "the legal obligation for both parties to enter into good-faith collective bargaining, and prohibitions on unfair labour practices." For more information please see this this article from the CBC.
Development on the most advanced military aircraft of its time, the Avro Arrow, began in 1949. Fuelled by Cold War sentiment and the need to defend the Canadian north from the Soviets, the government invested millions. 14,000 people lost their jobs when the Conservatives cancelled the project due to cost issues. For more information please see this this article in the Canadian Encyclopedia.
Over 500 members of the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union (ILGWU) went on strike demanding a 15% wage increase, union recognition, and the right to arbitration. Despite working in extremely difficult conditions, the strikers did not have the support of the general public. The strike lasted two months and the demands of the strikers were not met in the end. For more information please see this this article from the Torontoist:
The first Bombardier CS300 test flight was out of the Montreal airport. At the time the company had received 240 firm orders for the new jets.

The powerful Ohio Farm Bureau Federation is opposed to Ohio Gov. John Kasich's proposed severance tax on gas-oil drilling that would be turned into an income tax refund.
The group voted last at its annual meeting to oppose the measure.
Members said they were against any plan to increase the severance tax on oil and gas production solely for the purpose of instituting an income tax cut.
Instead, the group said any increase in the severance tax should be used to address local government funding, pay for infrastructure needs and economic development and mitigate negative impacts of oil and gas drilling on communities and the environment, Farm Bureau officials said.
The group also said changes to the severance tax should be part of a larger, comprehensive reform of Ohio's tax structure.

History of Vancouver Police 1825-1900
The Hudson's Bay Company was established at Fort Vancouver in 1825. Prior to this time, the only law enforcement in this area consisted of tribal and military laws. The Hudson's Bay Company was only allowed legal jurisdiction over British subjects. While officers and other gentlemen who committed crimes were confined to their quarters, soldiers and common people were tied to the cannons and whipped for crimes such as theft, drunkenness, and desertion. Occupants of the Hudson's Bay Company jail were generally land claim jumpers, deserters, and conspirators against the Company officers. The most common crime at this time was soldiers stealing fruit from the orchards.
In 1843, Dr. John McLoughlin, Chief Factor of the Hudson's Bay Company, built a jail inside the fort to house the suspects of his son's murder. This jail, which measured 20' x 20 ', was used until 1860. Prisoners were given only bread and water. The only other jail nearby was located in Oregon City until 1849, when the U.S. Army built the Vancouver Barracks and guardhouse.
The first Vancouver constable was Moses Kitchner, hired in 1853. The constable was essentially a volunteer police officer appointed by the City Council to serve a one-year term.
In 1858, Vancouver hired its first City Marshal, Nicholas Bateman. City Marshals were selected by the City Council to serve one-year terms. The position of City Marshal was initially equivalent to today's rank of Police Chief.
A second constable was added to the police force in 1867, bringing the department total to three men strong (1 Marshal, 2 Constables).
In 1882, the first beats were developed, with one constable patrolling east Vancouver and one patrolling west Vancouver.
VPD circa 1900The city jail was completed on June 14, 1883.
December 3, 1883, was the date of the first reading to establish a city police force. Mayor Smith made himself the unofficial Chief of Police on December 17, 1883.
In 1889, the wooden courthouse/jail building was involved in a major fire that destroyed much of downtown Vancouver.
New street lights eliminated the need for night patrols in February 1896.
The city started electing City Marshals in January 1899. A.J. Harrington was the first Marshal elected by the citizens of Vancouver on January 16, 1899.

We're confident that using Balmex Complete Protection on your baby's skin will help make him or her more comfortable and in turn help you feel reassured that you are doing everything possible to care for your baby's skin. But don't just take our word for it. Here is what other parents have said about using Balmex products on their babies:
Love Balmex! My children have all had sensitive skin and Balmex is the ONLY diaper rash cream that has worked for them. Love this product and I don't mind buying multiples since it also makes great baby shower gifts!
We've been using Balmex for our baby girl since she was born (Almost 6 months ago) This cream is magical. The rash won't last even a day. We got it recommend it by our doctor and now I totally recommend it"
My husband & I LOVE using Balmex at every diaper change! Our daughter had a horrible diaper rash when she first came home from the hospital. Not only was it red and swollen, but chafed and raw. We kept her out of diapers as much as we could, kept the area dry... and used the petrolatum tube she came home with. But it wasn't healing. My husband did some research, found that petrolatum is not the best ingredient out there...and bought the Balmex which is petrolatum FREE. Within a day, you could see the site was healing. We were so relieved, and so was she! We have used other products given to us, such as Desitin and Desitin Extra Strength. Burt's Bees Diaper/talc cream, Dr. Smiths, Triple Paste, etc. Balmex is the best and by far our favorite. Its easy to spread, great scent & it WORKS! The other brands are good and we find best used to keep diaper rash from happening; as a true barrier cream. But Balmex calmed the rawness, redness and chafing. Went to work instantly. You can't change our minds, we will continue to buy this as long as she is in diapers!
I have gone through nearly every diaper rash you can name for my newborn when she had a yeast infection. (Dr prescribed a rx but pharmacist also told me he swears by Balmex! So I finally tried it and redness was gone over night! It's the only cream I'll ever buy!
My personal favorite is Balmex because it is not greasy and doesn't leave a strong smell

If you thought that Tim Tebow would potentially sign with the Patriots, think again. According to reports, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has said that he "hates" Tim Tebow as a player.
The report from Yahoo Sports' Mike Silver says that the team would not bring in Tebow because they wouldn't like the media circus that follows Tebow. The team had been rumored in the past to have had an interest in Tebow's services, especially from offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who drafted Tebow and coached him while they were both with the Denver Broncos.
Since Tebow is more of a gimmicky player, the team would have to forfeit some of Tom Brady's snaps in favor of Tebow and that is something that Bill Belichick is not willing to do. Although Belichick has now said that he "hate" Tebow as a player, he does however praise his attitude and work ethic, something Belichick holds in high regard.
Tebow's options are running thin when it comes to finding a home in the NFL. The Jacksonville Jaguars, a team that needs help at quarterback, has said in the past that they will not pursue Tebow even if he's is released by the Jets. The Jaguars have not contacted Tebow even after he was released by the Jets.
Tebow's only option that he has right now is as a potential backup quarterback with an arena football team in Omaha. Tebow also has an option in the CFL with the Montreal Alouettes, the team owns his CFL rights, but again he would be a backup and he is not likely to sign with the Alouettes.

Real-time strategy (RTS) games are known to be one of the most complex game genres for humans to play, as well as one of the most difficult games for computer AI agents to play well. To tackle the task of applying AI to RTS games, recent techniques have focused on a divide-and-conquer approach, splitting the game into strategic components, and developing separate systems to solve each. This trend gives rise to a new problem: how to tie these systems together into a functional real-time strategy game playing agent. In this paper we discuss the architecture of UAlbertaBot, our entry into the 2011/2012 StarCraft AI competitions, and the techniques used to include heuristic search based AI systems for the intelligent automation of both build order planning and unit control for combat scenarios.

Adobe Security Patches Good for Win and Mac Only
Adobe Reader and Acrobat have been burdened with security problems. The Windows and Mac versions are now being patched. Linux users will have to wait.
"Security updates for Adobe Reader on the UNIX platform will be available on June 16, 2009," is the succinct message on Adobe's security bulletin of June 9. The problems with Reader and Acrobat up to version 9.1.1 can be severe in that they can lead to crashes and, even worse, potential for attack.
The vulnerability issue itself inspired formation of a security team at Adobe, from which the patches emanated. Director Brad Arkin suggests that the issue "sparked a lot of conversation" at Adobe. Further discussion could perhaps go into the selective nature of the patches.
Alternative ReplyThere again Linux is a second class citizen to Windows and Mac!.
Alternative explanation"Linux is relatively secure, let's concentrate on getting the Windows patch out first, and OS too if we can -- we can afford to take a week longer for Linux."
Adobe and LinuxThere again Linux is a second class citizen to Windows and Mac. Would love to see a multiplatform appication where Linux gets priority to Windows and Mac.

Trois-Rivières, January 31, 2014 – An offset printing press used to manufacture counterfeit US$20 banknotes was seized by the RCMP and US Secret Service. This significant seizure was made earlier today in the Trois-Rivières area. The authorities had been looking for this offset press for several years. A large quantity of paper was also seized by police, that could have been used by the counterfeiters to manufacture from US$40 to US$200 million.
This operation conducted as part of an investigation dubbed Project CRANIUM follows in the wake of the May 2012 dismantling of a laboratory, also in Trois-Rivières, that was used to add finishing touches to counterfeit notes. The investigation showed that the criminal organization had the capability to manufacture and to distribute worldwide millions of counterfeit US$20 banknotes.

Seized material (2012) - high resolution image

Seized counterfeit money (2012) - high resolution image
Those very high quality counterfeit notes were virtually undetectable to the naked eye. Some of the features they had were rather uncommon in this criminal industry, including the type of paper used, that was especially made with a Jackson watermark and a dark vertical stripe imitating the security thread found in authentic notes.
Back in 2012, four individuals linked to this counterfeiting ring were indicted on a variety of charges, including possession of counterfeit money, making counterfeit money and uttering counterfeit money.
Bank note counterfeiting is still a common type of fraud. Counterfeiters use highly sophisticated techniques to frustrate law enforcement authorities, and criminal organizations resort more and more to this type of crime to fund their illegal activities.
Police encourage consumers, cash handlers and retailers to be vigilant to help maintain the integrity of currency. Through prevention, you can help reduce bank note counterfeiting.
If you have any information on individuals or groups you suspect to be involved in counterfeiting activity, please contact the RCMP Integrated Counterfeit Enforcement Team at 1 800 771-5401.

Just try "Papaya Surf Beach Hotel" and you won't regret! It's not luxurious but it's cosy, clean and convenient. It's located exactly on Zicatela's beach. Furthermore it has an excellent restaurant!

I agree with them! "Papaya Surf Beach Hotel" is very nice, just try to avoid it from August until November because it usually gets crowded.

Roy, Brad A. Ph.D., FACSM, CHE
Brad A. Roy, Ph.D., FACSM, CHE, serves as the administrator of the Summit: The Community Center for Health Promotion and Fitness in Kalispell, MT, and is part of the executive team for Kalispell Regional Medical Center. Dr. Roy is chair-elect, Medical Fitness Association Board of Directors.
Learning Objective: To introduce health/fitness professionals to the newly published The Medical Fitness Model: Facility Standards and Guidelines.
Across the country, medical fitness centers are defining the nature of professionally administered health and fitness services to a nation whose health-care services are increasingly challenged by an aging population, individuals who have chronic disease and experience pain, and youth who place minimal value on the importance of physical activity and preventative health habits. Recognizing the importance of preventing disease and improving the health status of the communities they service, medical fitness centers have brought a higher level of medical resources, monitoring, and accountability to the fitness industry. Beginning in the late 1970s, the medical fitness industry has grown from 79 centers in 1985 to 875 in 2006 and continues to expand at a rapid rate.
The Medical Fitness Association (MFA), a nonprofit organization, was formed in 1991 to serve as a resource to the growing medical fitness industry. The association supports member facilities by establishing protocols and professional standards, providing networking and educational opportunities, communicating with public and governmental bodies, responding to the needs of member centers, and defining and promoting the medical fitness difference.
Rapid growth of the medical fitness industry has resulted in confusion regarding what sets a medical fitness center apart from a traditional commercial club. In 2004, responding to member requests for clarification and a set of standards, the MFA Board of Directors commissioned a task force to research, develop, and implement standards and guidelines for the operation of a medical fitness center. MFA board member Brad A. Roy, Ph.D., FACSM, CHE, was asked to chair the task force, and contributors were invited to participate from a national list of experts (Table 1). The following process was undertaken to develop the guidelines:
* telephone conferences to discuss the perceived need, set objectives, and identify individual and group tasks
* half-day face-to-face workshop following the 2004 MFA conference in Orlando to identify and further clarify standards and associated guidelines
* development of a written draft, subsequently circulated to the task force for critique, followed by a telephone conference to discuss necessary revisions
* development and implementation of a Web-based member survey to validate and garner comments for each proposed standard and guideline
* telephone conference to review survey results and outline recommended revision of the document
* presentation of the final draft at the 2005 MFA conference
* final revisions and February 2006 publication of The Medical Fitness Model: Facility Standards and Guidelines (1)
The standards and guidelines were designed to provide basic parameters for the prudent operation of a medical fitness center. The following objectives were identified by the task force:
* Define the "medical fitness difference."
* Provide a resource to facility directors/managers for
* basic standards for operating a medical fitness center
* providing facility participants a safe and medically sound experience that focuses on health improvement
* Establish standards for future facility and program recognition.
The Medical Fitness Model: Facility Standards and Guidelines encompasses 14 standards organized into seven primary categories. Each standard is supported by a number of explanatory guidelines that illustrate how facilities can comply with the stated standard. Standards represent the minimum requirements that facilities must have in place to meet the definition of a "medical fitness center." The seven categories that the standards and associated guidelines fall under are as follows:
* medical oversight
* emergency response
* programs and services
* aquatics
* staffing
* quality management, performance improvement, and outcome measures
* accessibility and safety
These seven sections are followed by a number of appendixes that provide resources and sample documents to assist the user. A checklist also is provided for each facility to undertake a self-assessment and identify areas of concern. Table 2 presents a sample standard and guideline.
For far too long, health/fitness clubs have been populated with the highly motivated, apparently healthy segment of society. Those who were overweight often shied away, too self-conscious to work out next to a streamlined body. The senior population often felt out of place, and those with health conditions were not encouraged and, in some cases, were afraid to participate. And, tragically, most facilities did not allow children.
The release of the 1996 Physical Activity and Health: A Report of the Surgeon General (2) began a slow but rapidly accelerating trend of encouraging all Americans to make daily physical activity a part of their lifestyle. The report emphasized the important role that daily physical activity plays in reducing the risk of dying from coronary heart disease and of developing diabetes, hypertension, colon cancer, and other chronic debilitating conditions and in enhancing mental and physical function, leading to a preservation of independence in older adults.
Today, the volume of individuals diagnosed and living with adverse health conditions is astounding, and many clubs/facilities across the country are attempting to position themselves to capture this growing market. Perhaps, John McCarthy, former International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association executive director, said it best in his July 2005 Club Business International column regarding the numbers of individuals living with adverse health conditions, "If anyone has ever had any doubts about the immensity of the medical fitness opportunity, these figures should dispel them completely. However, repositioning and realigning the industry to serve this market is not going to be easy…it will require a recommitment to greater professionalism and higher standards-a virtual renaissance of the entire industry" (3).
The Medical Fitness Model: Facility Standards and Guidelines emphasizes those higher standards and provides guidelines for facilities to improve the quality and safety of their programs to reach out and impact the health of the communities they serve. As John Caliri, operations director at FirstHealth Centers for Health & Fitness in Pinehurst, NC, commented in an email interview, "I see the standards and guidelines…as a road map helping hospitals and other organizations develop successful, medically integrated fitness centers…that benefit the individuals and communities they serve." Graham Melstrand, director of Educational Services, American Council on Exercise, stated by email, "The new standards and guidelines provide a road map for medically integrated fitness facilities that wish to truly set themselves apart with quality facilities, programs and professional staffing that meet and exceed the needs and expectations of consumers looking to enhance the quality of their lives through exercise."
The standards and guidelines also serve to clarify the differences between a "medical fitness center" and a traditional health and fitness club. These differences include the following:
1. A focus that looks beyond exercise to lifestyle modification and health improvement programs, community service, and a healthy positive outlook for all involved
2. Medical oversight, supervision, and guidance
3. Close alliance with a hospital, physician(s), and paramedical personnel
4. A high level of staff education/competency and certifications from recognized and highly respected organizations
5. Programs that bridge the gap between acute hospital care and ongoing or long-term medical services, such as physical rehabilitation services, cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation, pain management, and programs for those with diabetes, cancer, arthritis, and other health challenges
6. A high level of staff proficiency in dealing with emergency situations
The publication of The Medical Fitness Model: Facility Standards and Guidelines is the initial step in identifying the high standards of the medical fitness industry that facilities can strive to achieve. Recently, responding to member requests, the MFA Board of Directors and the Facility Standards and Guidelines Task Force began researching the development of a facility certification or accreditation process. More information on this exciting step will be available as MFA moves through the year ahead.
The Medical Fitness Model: Facility Standards and Guidelines resource is intended to be a living document that will periodically be evaluated and revised to improve its content and continuously raise the bar of professionalism and quality. The publication is not intended to supplant other published standards, such as ACSM's Health/Fitness Facility Standards and Guidelines (4), but to work in conjunction with such publications to improve the quality of health and fitness services offered to consumers. As part of the health-care continuum, it is imperative that medical fitness centers strive and achieve a level of quality and safety that truly makes a difference in the health of members and the communities served.
