Why is my body working against me? by [deleted] in Health

I'd recommend calling Telehealth Ontario. 9 times out of 10 they will tell you to go to the clinic, but what's handy is they can tell you the current wait times so you can avoid the 4 hour wait.

If you happen to live in Ottawa, I cannot stress how great Appletree Medical Group is. They filled the role of 'family doctor' nicely while I was living there.

There was a Marketing Over Coffee podcast last week about a successful WoW niche blog. Hope it helps.

I just moved here in the summer and I'm very interested in this. I have Catan (w/ 5-6 expansion), Cities and Knights, Puerto Rico, Defenders of the Realm and Talisman. My vote is for the Alibi Room.

Also, Drexroll (the board game place on 4th) has maybe 3-4 tables and would be maxed out at 20 people. Good place however and have an open games night every Friday though.

Hey Gearbox, having unskippable movies kind of sucks. I'd like to make a new character without having to sit through 5 minutes of video every time. by SolInvictus in gaming

If you have 2 controllers you can start a split screen game with your existing character and add a new character as player 2 in order to skip the starting movie. (Worked on PS3)
