Tim's Tip of the Day

 

Kevin's find of the day


'There could be an AIDS vaccine in four years,' says Nobel Prize winner
Professor Luc Montagnier discovered the AIDS virus 25 years ago and has been awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine. He predicts a therapeutic vaccine for victims of the illness will be developed in four years.

Happenings In Tisdale:

  • Tuesday, October 7, 8:00 Trojans vs. Prince Albert Mintos
 
 

If you value Medicare, think carefully before casting your vote
Tuesday
October 7, 2008
by: Randall McGunigal
Winnipeg MB: It is important to remember or realise the roots some politicians have. Stephen Harper spent two years as an advocate for the National Citizens Coalition an organisation established to fight public health care in Canada.
One more look at the magnificient fall of 2008
Monday
October 6, 2008
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: This is the third set of fall pictures posted this year, more than usual because this is truly an unusual fall. It has been warm and the change of colour of the leaves has been so gradual. There are now bare trees and still many that are green while on the ground there are those that have floated to the street.
The Greenwater report
Monday
October 6, 2008
by: Gerald Crawford
Cincinnati OH: The week's report tells us about Gerald and Doreen's bus tour of New York New York as they see the sights and seem to get pretty exhausted as they hurry to go from one line up to another.
We are polluters
Monday
October 6, 2008
by: Murray McEwan
Tisdale: Politicians and taxation make for an enormous opportunity for abusing the real world in which things not only take their own time but often don't quite work like advertised. Mr. McEwan has some serious doubts about the Liberal carbon tax plan.
TMSS Tornados take on Wynyard
Friday
October 3, 2008
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: Fabulous weather for this afternoon's football game with Wynyard. At the half it was Wynyard up 8 to zip but the Tornados were playing excellent defense so they still had an excellent chance of winning the game.
St. Matthew's 'big' fall sale
Thursday
October 2, 2008
by: Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: This year's fall sale is quite a bit larger than other sales in the past with inventory both inside and outside the church hall. There was a really be crowd on hand this morning but lots of stock for the next two days of the sale.
Cusp of a revolution
Thursday
October 2, 2008
by: Beverley Smith
Calgary: Many political pundits are concerned about a wildcard in this year's election. That wildcard is the women are both seeing themselve differently and may vote accordingly. Beverley Smith is a well known social advocate and she tells us that women and men both need to consider the whole concept of work as it relates to the issues of child care, taxation and the value of women in this society.
Harper reality check
Wednesday
October 1, 2008
by: Casper Davis
Victoria BC: The Harper campaign for re-election has been going on steadily since he assumed office as he has relied heavily upon American negative campaign strategies with American consultants running the show. But there is more to being prime minister than advertising hype, you really ought to know that.
Fudget Budgets
Wednesday
October 1, 2008
by: Eugene Parks
Victoria BC: The Federal government recent auctioned off hundreds of millions of dollars for the use of various radio telecommunication frequencies for use in this country. Interestingly enough the government considers this part of the country's normal income and totals it in with other revenue and continues to claim our government is in a surplus situation, that simply isn't true.
Stephen Harper: Promise keeper or Promise breaker
Tuesday
September 30, 2008
by: Joe Hueglin
Niagara Falls: Some define the truth as something that you can get others to believe. That might be the same with promises as to keeping them or just throwing them around to get votes knowing that memories and details often get lost in time. This story has the facts frozen in the words written at the time.
The Arts vs Stephen Harper; Stephen Harper vs the Arts
Tuesday
September 30, 2008
by: Brian Marlatt
White Rock BC: The Conservative government has targetted arts funding across the country selectively dropping programmes and in the case of movies and television imposed a form of sensorship. It would appear that the government considers the Arts some sort of enemy but in this short article Mr. Marlatt points out that the Arts are the heart and soul of a society.
Autumn in Weekes
Monday
September 29, 2008
by: Timothy W. Shire
Weekes: As the day wore on it is clear that September 29, 2008 is a historical day. It is hard to understand the importance to us in rural Saskatchewan of the fall of the TSX by more than 800 points or the sell off of the New York Stock exchange as it lost $1.2 Trillion dollars in value.
The Greenwater report
Monday
September 29, 2008
by: Gerald Crawford
New York, NY: Their on their bus tour of northeastern United States and this report gives us the low down on the Amish and has some great pictures of some other stops along the way to New York.
Life and death decisions
Friday
September 26, 2008
by:Eugene Parks
Victoria B.C.: The media and the politicians themselves sometimes reduce politics to a sort of game but the people we choose to represent us have to make vital decisions. Decisions that can kill people or save lives. Mr. Parks takes a dim view of the way the current prime minister has carried out his duties.
Canadian productivity
Friday
September 26, 2008
by:Dale Swirsky
Winnipeg: Canada has the enormous potential to be truly an outstanding country in which to live and work. Unfortunately some of our politicians do not share a view of the country as a whole but only of their vested interest or ideology. At this election we need to consider anybody but the conservatives.
Parkland Photography Club report for September
Thursday
September 25, 2008
by:Darlene McCullough
Tisdale: Though the Parkland Photo Club is a small association they are a busy group and this month's report outlines the various competitions and projects that is engaging the group as they strive to improve the pictures they take. This month's theme was "flowering trees."
A fall perspective
Wednesday
September 24, 2008
by:Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: There is more than just leaves turning colour and falling from the trees, and more than an edge on the morning breeze there is a way we look at things that changes as we see summer behind us and winter soon to be upon us.
The Greenwater report
Wednesday
September 24, 2008
by:Gerald Crawford
Saskatoon: This week's report catches us up on some e-mail with an important clue about a good dinner theatre. The Crawfords have packed up and are off on their trip to the eastern seaboard.
Failure of the economic system
Friday
September 19, 2008
by:Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale: The United States Government is buying up all the forclosed properties and assuming the irresponsible debts of the Banking and financial institutions because it has to their economic free market system has failed.
Friends of CWB launch second lawsuit related to CWB director elections
Friday
September 19, 2008
by:Anders Bruun
Hanley: The Federal Government is determined to destroy the Canadian Wheat Board and in its latest move it is rigging the election of directors of the board. Friends of the CWB have brought a lawsuit against the government as it is violating the Wheat Board Act.
Rather a good leader, than a "strong leader"
Friday
September 19, 2008
by:Casper Davis
Victoria, B.C.: There has been a lot of noise in this election campaign about leadership. Mr. Davis sets out the parameters of a good leader and points out the extreme shortcomings of a strong one.
Men at work
Thursday
September 18, 2008
by: Ken Styan
Tisdale: Some neighbourhood boys set out to gather up some of the leaves and came up with some unusual impliments to carry out the task. A shovel, fishing net and lacross rackets.
