			<description>Living and Dying in Cyberspace

(Written by someone else)

This week's editorial touches on a somber subject and there's a personal reason for that. This past week has been a tough one for me, with the deaths of two different family members. It made me stop and think a lot about life and how we live it today, and it also impressed upon me how the Internet has changed not just our lives, but also many of the little rituals surrounding our deaths.



The first to leave us was my cousin, Kim.  ...</description>

I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on my wife and me, threatening our lives.



You also asked for my wife's purse and earrings.



I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.

Dr. Virend Somers, a cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic who is lead

author of the report in the July 29, 2008 issue of the Journal of the

American College of Cardiology.







Most heart attacks occur in the day, generally between 6 a.m. and

noon, Somers said. Having one during the night, when the heart should

be most at rest, means that something unusual happened, he said.

Somers and his colleagues have been working for a decade to show that

sleep apnea is to blame.

			<description><![CDATA[No wonder Americans are afraid of the Islamic religion.  It's hard to have a positive point of view when all we hear about is suicide bombers, honor killings, persecution of other religions, and riots over a cartoon of Muhammad.  There seems no compromise or acceptance on their part to let all of us live in peace and harmony.

Two tiny kittens are slowly recovering after having paws cut off - believed to be by children using a knife or scissors.



The kittens survived their &quot;horrendous&quot; injuries, but are now facing major surgery to have a hind leg and part of a hip amputated.



The children, both aged under 10, giggled when they left the kittens at a Wellington Cats Protection League foster home, saying that the  ...</description>

			<description>Autobiography in Five Chapters



    1. I walk down the street.

    There is deep hole in the sidewalk

    I fall in.

    I am lost.... I am hopeless.

    It isn't my fault.

    It takes forever to find a way out.



    2. I walk down the same street.

    There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

    I pretend I don't see it.

    I fall in again.

    I can't believe I'm in the same place.

    But it isn't my fault.

    It still takes a long time to get out.

			<description>Does Anybody Care about Online Privacy Anymore?



In some ways, we as a society seem to be more concerned about privacy than ever before. We have a myriad of laws that are ostensibly aimed at protecting your privacy. If you live in the U.S., your mailbox - the physical one outside your door or at your curb - is probably cluttered up regularly with brochures disclosing the privacy policy of some credit card company, bank or other institution with which you do business. It's not that they all  ...</description>

I think it is absolutely disgraceful. There are many angry letters in today's newspaper about this.



Here's the actual video of the incident last year which left policeman Matt Butcher permanently paralysed down one side of his body.

			<description>Looks like we may have to go through this crap again. There has been a possible finding on a turkey farm in Abbotsford of a strain of Avian Flu.  The turkeys have shown to have antibodies in their blood.  One of our grower farms is within the 3km range of that farm so it is under quarantine. Thank god the egg farm in Abby isn't in that area!  Seriously, if this turns out to be another wipeout that affects our jobs there, I am looking at another career.  </description>

			<description>Once upon a time a man appeared in a village and

    announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys

    for &#36;10 each.



    The villagers, seeing that there were many monkeys

    around, went out to the forest and started catching them.

    The man bought thousands at &#36;10 and, as  supply started

    to diminish, the  villagers stopped their effort.



    He next announced that he would now buy monkeys at

    &#36;20 each. This renewed the efforts of the villagers  ...</description>

			<description>I found out recently that my co-worker Frank(74) had his house robbed last Thursday. They took his tv, printer, his son's computer, new laptop, car collectibles, and 3000 in cash that Frank was going to take to pay off the rest of his wife's car.  They turned everything up-side down, looked in all the cupboards and china cabinet, threw everything around. They even took some expired car plates out of a drawer and put it on the car that Frank's son just bought, loaded all the stuff into it and  ...</description>

			<description>Just wondering if anyone outside of Australia is paying less for petrol (gas) now seeing as the price of oil has dropped dramatically?



A few years ago we were paying about 90 cents a litre while the price per barrel of oil was about 90 US Dollars, this was the 'yardstick' by which we kept track of the price increases, i.e. the US Dollar price per barrel was equivalent to what we paid per litre here in Australia.



For example, when the price per barrel reached $100 US we paid about $1  ...</description>

On Thursday, Defence Minister Peter MacKay confirmed plans to purchase and lease new equipment. Some of the new helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will be made available immediately to the soldiers serving in Afghanistan, while other equipment will arrive in the next few years.
