  1. BC2004 he called that timeout way before the snap was even made. Apparently that's why he was mad. Essentially the refs allowed him to get a free practice kick. Icing the kicker is stupid but people do it. If I was a Seahawks fan, I would want to kill myself. What an amazing comeback. I know a TD on 1st and goal at the 2 is never a guarantee but I think they should have run the clock down a bit. Hindsight I know but they left way to much time on the clock. That play to Lynch was too successful. It's sort of like that play in last year's Super Bowl where the Patriots tried to push Bradshaw into the endzone to allow them time to make a last minute drive. Ultimately the hot headed Seattle CB's let the team down though. Prevent Defense Prevents you from winning. Peyton Manning's career will be forever marred by playoff failures. His brother has the better legacy right now IMHO. Tim Tebow won more playoff games for the Broncos than he did :-D
  2. Well in In Ontario the legislature isn't a sitting. After Caledonia and any number of other horrible things the Mcguinty Liberals have dine. Nothing would surprise me.
  3. I think what Ford did was dumb. Remember all he had to do was say he was wrong and not be so stubborn. So breaking the law itself didn't get him in hot water. Council didn't even see fit to take him to court, some politically motivated citizen did.
  4. Double post
  5. How could you threaten to expell a student for plagerizism if you forgive Spence?
  6. I don't think Ford should be fired. Spencer was never fired but the optics are bad for a head teacher to plagerize. He sort of had to quit.
  7. Hoe are these reforms fraud? If you've filed 3 times in 5 years chances are you aren't using EI for its intended purpose.
  8. The only law he broke was this conflict of interest law. And most believe the punishment for that is severe. It'll probably change soon. As for Spencer, when you're at school plagiarism is one of the worst crimes you can commit. I'm sure if he was in any number of other jobs, he wouldn't have been pressured to quit.
  9. Ford can't be fired like Spencer can. His contract is for four years and the public decides if he gets hired or not.
  10. So I've just learned something. The reason they want the GG present is because these treaties were made with the Crown and not Canada. They want the Crown to step in. I don't know how anyone can debate with people that think this way.
  11. www.sunnewsnetwork.ca/archives/sunnews/canada/media/2013/01/20130111-091643-g.jpg NICE!
  12. They also want to cause massive disruption across Canada, and to bring the economy "to it's knees".
  13. Well Ford was elected. Spencer was hired/appointed.
  14. So she won't be there after all. All this for nothing I just saw on TV that other chiefs aren't showing up and they want a non confidence vote for Shawn Atleo. I don't think they'll ever be pleased.
  15. The teachers still caused disruption. If they try this again, the Union should be fined in advance for threatening an illegal act
  16. This season is a lot better. That cop isn't much for Forensics is he? Leaving the blanket the dad was covered I am behind and not making the area a crime scene. Maybe I watch too much CSI. Pretty sad how hopeful everyone was about the date of Singapore. Having the workers sing God Save the King was a nice touch.
  17. The reason there were lawsuits is because both interfaces are similar. But Android allows for much more customization. It still boggles my mind why Apple doesn't have anything resembling widgets.
  18. Because it's not as good tech. But they're pricing it like it is. Sure to each their own but that doesn't mean make for interesting message boarding.
  19. Probably because the hunger strike is, likely, completely fake. Have you seen current pictures of her?
  20. Remember the wage freeze isn't really the issue. It's automatic grid raises, a reduction of sick days to 10 and taking away banked sick days. I don't believe the imposed contract has been made public. So I don't know how the Bill 115 contract deals with those contentious issues. Perhaps MCC can fill us in :-D
  21. EI is insurance. Auto insurance premiums go up up because of fraud. Try getting insurance in the City of Brampton. I would consider someone who only works the minimum required hours they need to claim EI, then taking the rest of the year off as committing fraud. These changes are meant to stamp that out.
  22. Here's my next anti-Apple rant. When told that Android is destroying Apple in market share, iSheep always respond that iPhones, Macs, iPads, have most of the profit because they are "better quality" and more "high-end". Well today this rumour comes out. http://www.cbc.ca/ne...per-iphone.html Unless you're one of those people that refuses to get into a 3 year contract to get a free phone, you wouldn't care about the price of a phone. You can pretty much get a free smartphone of pretty good quality as long as you're willing to stick with your carrier for multiple years. The Galaxy S2 is comparable to the iPhone 5, the Galaxy S3 is much better than the iPhone 5. There are Android phones set to come out this year that are crazy. Android phones aren't cheaper because they don't have the quality of the iPhone, they're cheaper because Samsung, HTC, Motorola, LG etc don't require as much profit from each phone they sell. With both the iPad Mini and, if this rumour is true, the cheaper iPhone, Apple's response to more inexpensive phones is to scale back on the tech, not take less money. It's a tactic that will hurt Apple more and more as time goes on.
  23. Chris Spence quit. Bad week for people named Spence.
  24. Teacher can't threaten to expel students for plagiarizing then forgive the TDSB's head teacher for the same crime.
  25. Perhaps this is smart. I don't really believe Spence backed out because the GG wasn't going to be there. I think she can't take the heat of being asked about the audit. Now that the GG has been asked to meet with native leaders, she has no excuse but to face the media.
