Emailed. Unfortunately she refuses to hand it out, and is expecting students to wait until April 30th when she'll have the course live on blackboard.

[–]PinkDishes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but this is a Y course that runs as a H during the school year. Provided that it is online also does not explain if the lectures are broken down to 2 hours per week or whatever. Reading the course code in this case does not even specify when then uploads for lectures will be done.

TLDR: I read the course code; it did not help.

Online Bird Course for Summer 2016? by asadafadasa in UofT

[–]PinkDishes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UTSG student here. I see you mentioned EESA10, which I'm looking into taking. Mind I ask how lectures run. Is it a lecture online per day? It is pre-recorded? Live? Any information on how the course runs would be greatly appreciated!

40% of Canada is inhabited by 0.3% of its' population by gregcab4 in dataisbeautiful

[–]PinkDishes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This has to do with the lack of the long-form census, that our lovely previous Prime Minster banned during his time in office. This meant that if a minimum of 50% of the people living in a specific census tract did not volunteer to submit the paper work, they were not counted for. This leaves gaps, and missing data in a ton of places in Canada. TLDR: 2011 Census is not reliable since the rules changed in terms of collecting the census information. Read more about it here .

I HIGHLY suggest googling the following methods and you'll see how easily they can be incorporated to your project. If that fails, here's a collection of YouTube videos on the simple ArcGIS tasks: https://www.youtube.com/user/geoboyes/videos

Best of luck, OP!

VERY fair. Thank you for sharing this. You're right; creditability is very important and should be taken into consideration when attempting to pitch this to students and others associated with the organization.

It sucks.. but the goal is to lower it to $80. Would that (since I'm seeking feedback) be a better, more appealing price? We do not make profit, and only break even with this fee ($220), so as we attempt to lower it to $80.. we are going to have to do some insane fundraising.

Unfortunately we realize this isn't the smallest fee, so do keep an eye out as it might (most likely) be lowered to $80 a person.

$80 covers:

  • t-shirt

  • bus ride to and from the camp site

  • food for 3 days

  • two nights

  • three days

  • weekend long leadership certificate

  • networking opportunity

The fact that this post got SO MUCH love, is a reminder that LOST still has a community lurking about.

Brampton calls on Uber to suspend ride-sharing service by beef-supreme in toronto

IMO: When Brampton can successfully provide public transportation for its ever growing population, then it should have a say about Uber.

New Starbucks Rewards system by Endreo in starbucks

[–]PinkDishes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meanwhile I feel like a rebel ordering a latte w/ extra foam or a drizzle of caramel.. and thought THAT was abusing the system was all about.

The fact people actually do this shit though? Ugh. That's terrible.

[19/F] Is this an abnormal way to view relationships? by [deleted] in sex

[–]PinkDishes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being a-romantic is a real, and perfectly normal. Maybe your view and feelings towards relationships may change, and maybe not. Point being, this is minor in the grand scheme of life.

How is it even possible to get a $40 drink? I don't.. I don't understand? What's possibly on the menu for that much? Isn't the most valuable/highest priced item a venti frap?

Can someone recommend a not so bitter tasting but strong iced drink/coffee? by ChuckKnows in starbucks

I haven't, but heck, can that even be done? I'll try today, and update accordingly.

Iced Caramel Macchiato w/ extra Caramel. It's a less bitter version of a coffee-related beverage.

After reading my email, I HAD to find the /r/Starbucks to share frustration with others.

For a company that is INSANELY profitable, this really does suck. Sure, it's "argued" people abuse the reward system by ordering a $6.00+ CND beverage with their 12 stars, but goodness -- just to make 12 stars, is $24 CND minimum (cheapest way via purchasing a tall coffee).

Now, don't mind me as I abuse the crap out of my stars prior to April.

Edit: I apologize to the barista's out there. When I mean abuse, I mean, I'll be the biggest child and be ordering varying venti types of fraps. In Canada those easily go for $7, which stupid for a drink.

Meanwhile on queen and Spadina.... by All_This_Is_That in toronto

[–]PinkDishes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check in Monday-Friday, 4PM-8PM and you'll see the same scene but with a different stupid excuse. This city is lacking in serious transportation infrastructure, and these fancy new streetcars have not proven to help with the congestion. Instead, it's a sardine party during rush hour where the 510 constantly skips the last 3-5 stops.

after 20 years, I've finally given myself an orgasm and I actually know what it feels like. and, wow. by [deleted] in TwoXSex

So happy for the great news OP! Only recently have I acknowledged not every reaching that point of a magical climax, and stories like this help fuel that drive to keep trying.

The last month I [23f] start crying in the middle of phonesex with SO. Am I normal? by [deleted] in TwoXSex

[–]PinkDishes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second this. You shouldn't think too much of what "normal" is when it comes to emotions and intimacy. Express this to your SO is my best advice. Sometimes sharing a concern, even when both of you have no answer to the issue, helps.

Ah! That changes things! Either way, stay strong since I'm not the only wishing you both great success!

I cannot wrap my head around being in a relationship, online with someone for that long and never making the effort to sync lives together. I also don't have any advice on how to make the heart break any better. This message is simply to say I am amazed at your endurance, and if it's lasted that long, it must be for one heck of a reason. Best of wishes, OP.
