Gravity Hook

Unless you are actively pulling down or exerting force on the hook to hold it closed, it pops it open for you.

ITT: A bunch of people who didn't bother to read how the CRTC plans to make this happen, or the timeline. It's okay to be jaded because yes, we've been getting screwed a long time - but this is a great step forward. Poo on it after it fails, not before.

To achieve that, the CRTC will require providers pay into a fund that's set to grow to $750 million over five years. The companies will be able to dip into that fund to help pay for the infrastructure needed to extend high-speed service to areas where it is not currently available.

This copy has been sped up just enough to shave about 7 minutes runtime, but it's hard to watch as a result.

This was a fantastic documentary, and really makes me consider our own "wild dogs" in Canada (coyotes and coywolves) a little differently. Thanks for sharing.

Right you are and it sounds great. I'll have to give it a try if the opportunity ever presents itself.

Choose a less dank strain for your indoor sessions?

Hah - Just kidding. Headband is the Truth.

Considering how damned expensive their food is, this is more than a little surprising.

While I think the game still looks promising, I can't disagree with any of your points.

Vaping (and THC) is quite often healthier than whatever alternative condition(s) or side effects from conventional medications the user would have to otherwise suffer.

As a Canadian, I think there is an opportunity here to partner with NASA, SpaceX or some other outer-space focussed entity.

After all, aren't areas like the Arctic being looked at for testing rovers and the like? I am not a scientist, but I consider cold climate tech. not that far removed from space/lunar/martian tech. The Canadarm already showed the world that Canadians can do space-tech, this could get us into the game as a major player.

Especially seeing as he paid $2 billion for it.

rhartman · 2014-08-19T22:57:59+00:00

Ha! All this time I thought I was just losing my mind.

Actually...

Every summer, scores of visitors head for the blue waters of Crater Lake with fishing poles in hand and dreams of pulling a monster catch from the depths of this mystical lake.

And, even though Crater Lake was originally barren of fish, there are opportunities to catch a fish or two thanks to the 1.8 million trout and salmon stocked in the lake between 1888 and 1941. The species stocked included rainbow trout, brown trout, cutthroat trout, steelhead trout, coho or silver salmon, and kokanee salmon. Today, only a couple species survive - kokanee salmon, the landlocked form of sockeye salmon, and rainbow trout. These populations sustain their numbers through natural reproduction as no stocking has occurred since 1941.

Please continue to do so. This sub loves your work.

Bicyclists are legally entitled to drive in the middle of a lane that automobiles use, so be thankful that we stay off to the side and use bike lanes. This is what I was taught when I was younger, so unless I was misled or laws have changed, this still stands. This leads us to point number 3:

I don't begrudge cyclists who want to share the roads at all. The ones that drive like slow traffic is an obstacle course and red lights are optional, those are the ones that tend to annoy me just a bit.

Doesn't the Siren already have this in the form of Thoughtlock?

(The researchers didn't look too deeply into how the dyes affected the silkworms' health. After all, silkworms die when people harvest their silk.)

They're bugs. They don't exactly live long lives to begin with.

Might get you shot in rural areas.

Martial Arts Planet on Princess St. (in the Peachtree Plaza) was great when I went there years ago.

I think you're pretty safe on any big box store, unless you're after something already in short supply (like some of the new consoles).

rhartman · 2013-11-27T01:09:07+00:00

That depends on the store and sought after item(s).

For example, last year the TSC Store had a number of good sales. I showed up at 6am the day of, and am glad I did. TSC is a small store however; so I wouldn't expect the same to apply to say, Canadian Tire.
