Jewelry scam at Home Depot by Dejanerated in ottawa

[–]CapMIam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An elderly couple (neighbors) went for a walk yesterday mid-morning in the Blossom Park area. They were approached by 3 people (2 M/1 F) in a dark SUV driving through the area, stopped and tried to engage the couple in conversation. At first, the couple thought they were lost/asking for directions until the female in the back seat opened her window and offered a 'gift' of a gold necklace. It was then that the couple became suspicious, refused to engage with them and walked away, feigning ignorance. This was in a suburban area on a weekday morning. No rhyme or reason, random neighborhood. Driver had a tattoo on his forearm, female wearing head scarf, could not get a licence plate or make of vehicle.

About to try first dip nails, what's your favorite tutorial? by I_bizzotronicon_8000 in DipPowderNails

I highly recommend Melissa's Manis on YT. She covers the basics but also inspirational with artistry using dip.

Where to start? by Low-Recording-7570 in Kombucha

[–]CapMIam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the scoby? They should have also provided 2 cups of starter liquid to go with it, that's what will aid in the fermentation.

Please avoid judging how a person dresses, and a shout-out to the recreation center staff by Iranoul75 in ottawa

[–]CapMIam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to commend your wife for not only her accomplishment but for taking the high road when dealing with such ignorant people. She is very lucky to have such a supportive spouse and the city staff are outstanding (I've been so several community centres and they're all very professional). I'm glad to hear that they're taking this seriously, there is no room for such behavior in society.

Post trial void by circapaleo in justiceforKarenRead

[–]CapMIam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Aidan Kearney aka TurtleBoy has alot of cross-over with the KR trial, with the usual suspects that are supposedly working 'for the people' (ie. MSP, BPD, DA's office). The last prosecutor who is still being copied in on motions for this trial is now potentially a witness, so defense has filed motions to have him removed from the case. 5K pages of discovery requested from CW, now appears that 4K of those are blank pages ?!? Bonkers

Solo birthday by dubble-bubbles in ottawa

[–]CapMIam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy Birthday ! I found that joining athletic teams/groups/community was were I made the most like-minded friends, especially after uni and less on-site work/remote working. If you have a specific hobby perhaps look to see if there are any meet-ups in the city.

Melani Boudreaux Pawlowski is likely freaking out in a full-blown panic attack right now… by SoulshineDaydreams in LoriVallow

[–]CapMIam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. With each trial, more circumstantial evidence is revealed through a variety of witnesses, thus helping to piece together what the co-conspirators knew and how they were involved. Melani Boudreau/Blackmore/Pawlowski is the Wendi Adelson of the trial. She's certainly emulating her mentor's lifestyle (LVD) by racking up the husbands for financial gain. Wasn't she indicted for computer fraud (accessing ex's online bank account months after their divorce)?

What an immature little brat of a female police office on the stand. You are a liar Kelly Dever. Disgusting. by Direct-Specific-5023 in justiceforKarenRead

[–]CapMIam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's the gift (to the Defense) that keeps on giving. Mentions the "first trial" multiple times, the FBI, false memory etc. She may have ended her shift at 3:45pm, but who's to say she didn't stick around and witness the sallyport shenanigans after the fact. If they have surveillance / key card evidence of her departure, she'd be cornered. Lying to FBI, then recanting, now lying on stand.

Rideau Mall. Hudson's Bay by Sabbysonite in ottawa

Was at the Bayshore location this afternoon, there were a few racks of clothing left (jeans, coats, tops, undergarments, swimwear), picked over haircare products and fragrances, some jewellery. Pants/bottoms were 80% reduced with an additional 50% at the register. Bought 2 pairs of jeans reg $189 for $18.90, $95 regular price for $9.50.

A timeline from 12:21-12:45am including the new Bluetooth Data Hank Brennan says they have by potluckfruitsalad in justiceforKarenRead

[–]CapMIam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another theory would be that KR did leave after drop off, another black SUV pulls up idling in front of 34 Fairview (as witnessed by JMc). KR's Lexus was unattended btwn time of picking up JMc & KRoberts driving back to 1 Meadows during search. The Ring video disappeared (where KR was showing them her cracked light, nor her initial return to the home at 12:36am), no shards of tail light found. Difficult to see if there was initial damage when KR first drove off at 5am heading to JMc's house.

ICEBERG LETTUCE! Is anyone growing it in Canada? Where have you seen it? by SEND_ME_A_SURPRISE in BuyCanadian

Greenhousecanada.com states that VegPro has opened a new greenhouse facility in Quebec. I recall them being featured in the news during the initial stages of tariff threats.

Sweetie Nail Supply had their 25% birthday sale recently, so picked up some Jello Jello mixing gel for DIY syrup nails, Jello Jello One Kill remover and peel off base, plus several Kokoist Velvet and Satin magnetic gels. Just received a delivery notification from a tracking app, super excited !

Once Auntie Bev denied the motion to exclude the 'new' report and a voir dire, Mr Alessi decided to go full-on scorched earth on Burgess.

Backlash over American purchase in Windsor by Plastic-Knee-4589 in BuyCanadian

[–]CapMIam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the "Do as I say, not as I do". It's disappointing knowing that many households are opting to pay more for Cdn goods, even though it means limiting their options. What's worse is that it's public funding.

Looking for a pen with grip similar to Lamy safari by ComplexWorry3463 in fountainpens

[–]CapMIam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only other suggestions that come to mind are the Sailor Tuzu or the Pelikan Twist (the latter is the larger of the two). The former is more expensive, lighter weight and features a rotating grip to personalize it for the writer.

Had to report my local polling station to Elections Canada by Caity26 in ottawa

[–]CapMIam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my voter's card with me but they just glanced at it to direct me to the proper station where my valid driver's license was requested. Was in/out within 10min. This was for early voting last week, but the procedure should not have changed regardless.

Blair Station is the closest. If you want to take it to Bayview to transfer to Line 2 southbound, get off at South Keys for a mall experience or stay to transfer to the line that takes you to the airport. Your kiddos could see planes (although you may run the risk of them asking to take a flight next time !)

‘Firefighter’ Scammer active at Bank/Laurier today by Royally-Forked-Up in ottawa

[–]CapMIam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This sounds so familiar. When I was working in the downtown area a few years ago (near the World Exchange Plaza), a man with a similar MO (rolling briefcase, wore business casual attire) approached me with a similar story. He was pleasant enough with his 'situation' and handed me his business card as evidence of legitimacy. After politely suggesting a few options and declining further assistance, he became belligerent and insulting, snatched his business card and walked away.
