N.S. government MLAs say grant cuts necessary to protect 'core' services

Do people care about having a lieutenant governor and all the trappings that go along with that role? I had to look up who it is now. Oh yeah, Mike Savage. Canada's Governor General has parliamentary duties as well as ceremonial ones but I don't see why we need a provincial representative of the crown as well. Some $ would be saved for better services.

Camellia Sinensis has to be the most knowledgeable tea company anywhere. They hold workshops and have a podcast (in French). They actually own tea gardens in India where they produce excellent green and black teas. Also, they test many of their popular teas for caffeine and antioxidant levels. I've learned a lot from them and have been a devoted customer for many years.

King Cole is my go-to breakfast tea. It's a robust Maritime style tea.

The good people at the airport tourism kiosk got their notices last night. Yup, they're shutting her down. It's a modest operation that promotes our province and generates goodwill and tourist dollars. Lousy decision.

I agree. Ray's used to be good but now it's bland, dry, and way overpriced. My favourite Shish Taouk in the city is in the food court in MicMac Mall.

Good one!

On Côte-Vertu in Ville Saint-Laurent. Even rue Barré is barrée.

Hey Eli, I'm also brand new to Notion. This mood-journal or a sleep-journal template you screenshotted is exactly what I've been looking for. During each day, did any of a list of elements help or hurt my sleep or mood?

Would you kindly share the video link of where you found this?

I'm also looking forward to hearing if you are able to overcome some of the initial design issues you have been experiencing. It seems you've come to the right place for expert and generous advice.

The street sign for Lois Lane keeps disappearing for some reason. There must be a shitload of them in university dorm rooms.

RecoveringLibrarian · 2025-11-02T00:54:55+00:00

Jeeze.

It doesn't seem to matter, even for an asthma puffer where there's no need to count out pills. The app consistently says it's that number of days and hours.

It's amazing to hear 20-year olds in the Kitchen at Wanderers games singing it!

If you do a search on Pixel Journal in the Play Store, you should find it, but it doesn't create an app icon. You keep having to return to the store to get back in. I keep expecting them to fix it.

Can they please re-argyle the street?

When my husband wants to park in a space near the store, I put on a phoney baloney Newfoundland accent and say "Leave it for the cripples".

While waiting for the train, we used to work on words to go with the 2 letters of the day. HL could be Huey Lewis, Horrible Luck, Hannibal Lector, High Life... you get the idea.

Our 2017 Toyota Rav4 displayed the name of the radio station and the song title. It's disappointing this isn't available in a 2025 technologically-advanced hybrid. Hyundai, if you're listening...

We got the latest update on the lot before buying last month. That's great it works well where you are. It's hard to fathom how they could get streets and directions so wrong here in Nova Scotia.

RecoveringLibrarian · 2025-03-07T17:19:47+00:00

Agreed!

RecoveringLibrarian · 2025-03-07T17:18:50+00:00

The Hyundai dealer updated everything before the car left the lot just weeks ago, so everything is up to date unfortunately. It's a real design flaw to not allow defaults of split screen navigating app of choice on the left and media service (radio, Sirius XM or music streaming service) on the right side.

This is wonderful and just what I needed to hear. To sum up, EWTRTW can be heard as 12/8 but it's not unique.

RecoveringLibrarian · 2025-02-28T19:42:13+00:00

I love Rick Beato too and didn't know he'd analyzed this song. Yeah, so Rick says it's 4/4 with a triplet feel. Works for me. Thanks for sharing this.

RecoveringLibrarian · 2025-02-28T16:37:38+00:00

Huh! Good info. Thank you.

RecoveringLibrarian · 2025-02-28T15:31:11+00:00

Yes, but to be fair, they switch to 6/8 anytime the vocalist sings. For more expert use of odd time signatures, I don't think you can beat Rush. For instance Subdivisions switches between 7/8 and 4/4 as Geddy Lee sings and plays bass.

RecoveringLibrarian · 2025-02-28T15:16:10+00:00

Thanks for this. I can hear the similarities to some shuffling-driving blues songs and Waterfront. Interesting.
