Yet another record for a high set in the GTA after a beautiful Sunday.
Environment Canada confirmed that Pearson Airport passed the previous record set in 1954 of 11.1 degrees Celsius with daily high reaching 13.8.
A low pressure system brought a warm south-west flow to southern Ontario, but, not for the entire province.
Temperatures in cities not too far north of Toronto were dramatically lower, like Kingston and Ottawa, which never hit plus temperatures.
"There was a very sharp boundary between Southern and Northern Ontario, today" said Environment Canada's Desjanelle Matthews. "North of us, it still very much feels like winter."
The good fortune is not going to last, as the GTA is expected to be back to more seasonal winter temperatures by Wednesday.

Our PREMIERE Cock Ring. 8 months in the making. As soon as we slapped it around our junk…we KNEW this was the ONE! So precisely engineered, it looks frikkn' mechanical. No seams. No hassle. No bullshit.
Our FT Grunt is made of a revolutionary new silicone that's OURS alone. It flexes `n stretches in all the right ways. Not too firm. Not too soft. Just touch the surface…and you'll get WHY the FT GRUNT feels more natural than ANYTHING you've ever fucked with before. It's NOT slick `n slippery like other silicone rings that slide off as soon as you're bathed in lube and the juices start to flow. Hell NO. Designed to fit you SNUG, this cock ring HUGS your fuckstick like the lips of an all-day cocksucker. Once you're boned, stretch it on. Enjoy the STAYING POWER that cums ONLY with the FT GRUNT.
Stroke it. Fuck it. Wear it til you shoot. We GUARANTEE your complete satisfaction…or your money back. We are THAT confident.
Here is 3-PACK. 1 Black + 1 Red + 1 Blue. Save 10 BUCKS…so you and your buddy can fuck with the BEST.
CARE N'CLEAN: FT Silicone is dishwasher safe. Place on the top rack. Wash with antibacterial soap and warm water. Safe with all lubes.
DIMENSIONS: SNUG has a non-stretched inner diameter is 1.5 inches. Total diameter is 2 inches.REGULAR has a non-stretched inner diameter is 1.8 inches. Total diameter is 2.5 inches.
Got this for my Marine in the FT Camo Sport Jock combo pack. I was just ordering Jocks for him but am glad that it was part of the combo deal. My Marine loves it! I like him to have a 70's porn bush and he said he was suprised that it didn't pull his pubes or pinch when putting it on. It also lifts and pushes out your balls makeing them look huge (looked like he had bull balls - looked fucking hot). He is very happy with this cockring and wants me to have one too. He loves how comfortable it feels on. I plan on ordering a few more for him and I and since they are good price for such quality I might buy some for gift bag fillers for my friends this upcoming Christmas. You won't regret this purchase, worth more than asking price in our opinion! Ooh Rah!— Zac
I've already been getting creative using the Grunt Cock Ring 3-pack along with the Trainer. Three rings at once around the nuts feels amazing and gives a sweet amount of swing when you move. These make killer ball stretchers! The price was incredible! They're soft to the touch, have a great stretch, close down nicely, are easy to clean and make me feel sexy as fuck when I have them on. They tend to catch my hair a little. But, if you're lubed up it's not an issue. Get these! You won't regret this buy.— Sporn0
Wow! These are the BEST cock rings ever! They're really SUPER comfortable, not too binding and they stretch just perfectly without pinching or too much restriction. Just enough to make my cock bigger than I thought it could be! And I love how the two around my balls stretch them enough, without hurting as I get my ass pounded, they provide some length for my balls to get slapped just perfectly! thank you for such an awesome product, Fort Troff! I'll buy more for sure! You guys rock!— Jeepguy

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Bobby Brown has been released from jail after serving less than a day of his 55-day jail sentence for a driving under the influence conviction.
A sheriff's spokesman said the 44-year-old R&B singer was released after eight hours and outfitted with an electronic ankle monitor Thursday because of jail overcrowding and good behavior.
A spokeswoman for Brown said he is at home with his family.
Brown pleaded no contest to DUI and driving on a suspended license in February and turned himself in Wednesday. He will be required to serve four years on informal probation and complete an 18-month alcohol treatment program.
The conviction is Brown's second for DUI in less than a year. He avoided jail after pleading no contest to a March 2012 drunken driving case.

Project Description
I need to develop my vision. Please try to follow:
I need to create an intranet of joomla sites where users can create web communities on the fly.
A feature filled search engine will be the gateway allowing users to search for anything within the web communities. The search engine must spider through any extension that the community admin may have installed within their instance of joomla.
I will need an ad module created to where I can blast ads through every web community in the form of Google adsense, and banners.
I will also need an install script where users wanting to create a community can do so by simply signing up, choosing a sub-domain, and whatever else that is needed, and there web community will be installed.
Every web community must be able to be accessed through the intranets instance of joomla.
Users will create web communities focusing on whatever topics they wish.
This will be an ongoing project for the right developer.
This post should give you a general idea of what I am looking for.
Please contact me with any questions.
Only bid if you are confident that you can do this project.
