“Oct. 5, 8:12 p.m. – Zellers had three female youths in custody as a result of obtaining food by fraud. Subjects had eaten at the restaurant and left without paying. Patrol made, subjects given Protection of Property Act notices to stay away from the business for one year. “

Isn’t this terrible..?? It sure is..! a town only with a population of 8,000 and this to happen..?? Female youth .. meaning underage.. and since their name weren’t published .. we can be quite sure.. that they are definitely underage. So when you were a kid, have you even ever thought about eating and not paying up..?? even in a hawker center.. i’ve never in my youth.. thought of doing that..! what’s more, this is a restaurant. I’ll have the say .. the youth here.. are pretty the terror..! It’s seriously sad.. but the town.. donch wanna address this problem.. so what can you do.. right..??

Back home where the humidity is terrible, when one furnished their homes, we go for stuff that are Stainless Steel, all because Stainless Steel does not stain, corrode or rust as easily as ordinary steel.

Plus if you have a man at home, you really don’t want to have anything that is too frilly or too woody, so clean cut Stainless Steel products are actually a medium for both the male and the female sharing the same home. It is really amazing what they have to offer in a Stainless Steel Store these days. Not only are they so pretty and they actually look very smart and very usable as well.

Their products ranges from outdoors to cooking right up to office essentials. Not only are they stylish and very affordable, one just cannot help but admire the wide varieties to choose from. You get to shop online and they accept any major credit card, so there is absolutely no hassle.. if you see something you like and want to purchase it immediately. Stainless steel stores, I am sure are aplenty but one so stylish and affordable, is a rare find.

Last week.. i happily report that the big boys like Walmart and Zellers were cutting prices to match our American counterpart but it’s not true..!! today we were at Zellers.. and the employees there didn’t even know anything about it.. and there wasn’t a thing that was price matching those of the American Walmart at all. What celebration..?? what price cut..?? lots of hot air as usual lah..!

As a mummy to a young toddler, I remember those early days where I had to make decisions as to what were the best buy for my daughter, from her receiving blankets, to the milk she takes and what she uses, on my own. My spouse, her daddy would just say.. “it’s up to you” or his favourite “you decide”. But we all know that one cannot be too careful when it comes to a young child. Take for example, when we wanted to get a baby carrier, since there was no one to turn to, for advice, i had to look up for Baby Carrier Reviews on the web.

And why do I need to read about a Baby Carrier Reviews , you might asked..? Well, firstly, as a mummy, I want to know for sure that it is a safe and comfortable product for my child. Afterall, she can’t fend for herself .. nor tell me if the baby carrier was hurting her in anyways since she can’t talk at that time. Call me paranoid or over protective but it is a mother’s job to be all that, and I can’t say anyone will fault you for being too careful.

With reviews from real users and experts, one can decide whether if a product is what you actually want to buy, afterall, spending any money however small it may seems to other people is still good money spent. Baby Carrier Reviews did help me decide and not only that, it actually made me realized that i should be reading review of other products that I may need to buy in the future as well. Checking out on the rpice, brand and its cost is all very important as a smart consumer.

Ya.. ya..! i complained alot.. about the tough shit about owning your own business for 8 yrs.. ! from “wonderful” ex-employees to “super” great customers but i’ll have to say that owning your own business does have it perks. I for one am not into gadgets.. ppl can go ga-ga .. over a new ipod .. or a new xbox 360 or a new cell phone. But me.. i’m the most practical person on earth. If the cellphone works.. that’s all i ask.. no need stylo-malo anything in it. Same goes for the cd player .. that i’ve been using in the bathroom. You see yours truly needs to relax.. when showering or taking a bath.. so some music is a MUST for me. But lately, i haven’t been able to play my chinese songs in my cd no more.. because old already lah.. the cd..! all scratched up.. and stuff. Ya.. ya..i know can download..and then burn.. but we donch think it is right lor.. ! afterall .. gotta support the artists lifestyle right..?? for another mansion. So yes.. someone as per usual.. would come in and sell stuff like an ipod.. or a PSP for at prices .. you would be so tickled.. you can roll on the floor. But you know me lah.. already so good price.. being a chinese jew hor.. get it even at a more ridiculous price. So there.. i got myself.. my first ever gadget.. an ipod 2gb.. for a ridiculously low price.. ! muahahhahaha!! yes.. owners does get their perks..!

I live in a little town with a total population of only 8,000 in town. I guess it would be perfect for us if we did not own our own business in this small town. But since we do, we see a lot of “ugly” people coming in and out of our store, just to get a few bucks to feed their addiction. The things they would do just to get some money. Some try to sell just about anything to us, and if they could, they would sell the shirt off their back. Of course, we have those that very desperate and would sell us stolen goods. Yes, you heard me right… stolen goods. They break into their own mother/sisters/brothers/strangers house and take anything they think will get them a few bucks. Sad as it is, we see it happen all the time, and the cops are involved all the time.

Most parents here are quite in denial when it comes to getting help for their kids. But you can’t really blame them, for who would want to air their dirty linen in public. But help must be gotten or else they would continue to hurt themselves and the people around them as well. Intervention is a big word for all those with a drug problem, nobody wants to be told that they are in the wrong and they are not only hurting themselves but also the people who love them. Try telling a normal person that, and even then we will see resistance and denial. Folks with a drug abuse problem will use any kind of excuse to deny themselves of help and rehabilitation.

But there is help, and there are professionals who can assist. But how does one choose the right treatment program for your loved ones..?? Since you can’t go about asking the cops that arrested your kids, nor ask someone else whom you think might have the same problem with their kids, for fear of embarrassing them? A non profit rehabilitation program, offered at no cost to you, provides program information for treatment and recovery from drug and alcohol addictions. Since there are just way too many treatment programs and centers out there, one can get very confused during these trying times, therefore this referral service not only helps you get in contact with the right facilities but also aims to help you select the most effective treatment for your loved ones. They encourage you to show love and support for your loved ones, not to ridicule those that need help. The battle to overcome an addiction is a tough one but they know exactly what you are going through so don’t hesitate to ask for help.

My mother-in-law used to say this to me. And there is alot of truth in it. “The Apple really donch fall far from the Tree”.

Owning your own business, we get to hire alot of ppl to work for us. 8yrs in business..and you tell yourself .. you’ve actually seen it all eh..? Sometimes, you wonder why kids that you hire turns out to be the way they are.. and today.. a father of someone that we’ve hired a long time ago, came in and went on and on.. about how the daughter is doing so good .. blah.. blah.. blah.. and only works hard for “good” money.. and so forth and so forth. Now wonder the poor kid had such bad attitude.. when she was working for us, because ours is “small” money.

Another kid that we hired 8 yrs ago, continues to bad mouth us .. and recommends our competition to his “friends” because he didn’t get his way. Like his parents, they too stopped talking to us.. when their kid didn’t get what he wants. But you see .. our competition is able to do “stuff” for him.. because they were doing “stuff” that weren’t so correct. And we were unable to .. because we refused to break the law. So the ex-employee of us.. skunk us big time.. because we wouldn’t break the law..?? now that the competition is being charged.. so who is getting the last laugh.

When we bought our house a few years ago, the first thing that came to my mind was to fix up the basement and turn it into a recreation room for the man. I wanted something good.. so the man can relax after a long day of work.. and entertain his friends there.. and i can have the upstairs of my house.. all to myself.

I wanted to put a pool table in for him, his 53″ tv .. into the recreation room and of course some mini-bar and some retro looking bar stools, to complete the whole retro theme we had in mind. A juke box would be nice but not really affordable at this point of time, so he’ll have to settle for just those retro bar stools i found for him.

“Canadians to sue 5 automakers for discrimination”

So it is ok.. for Americans to come to Canada to buy cars.. when their currency is higher.. and buy properties here.. and not the other way around..?? What meaning is that..??!!!??

‘The dealerships’ uniform denial of sales of new vehicles to Canadian citizens is a blatant pattern and practice of nation of origin discrimination.’

Absolutely ridiculous..!!! You go ..Canadians..!! show them they can’t do this to us..!!

GM, Ford, Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge named in suit

“Jazlowiecki said General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge were seeking to maximize profits by not allowing Canadians to take advantage of their strong dollar and buy new cars in the United States, where prices are much lower.”

We were at Macdonald’s on Sunday.. and the girl behind the counter offered the world’s miniest ice cream to Chloe. It was so small.. and so cute.. ! the brat had such a thrill eating it.

We all know that eating fruit is extremely beneficial to our health and well-being. However, finding the time to eat enough fruit per day can be difficult due to busy lifestyles. I have found a site that has hundreds of smoothie recipes to help with this. Give it a try.

My favorite recipes are the strawberry smoothies.

This site is also looking for submissions for all fruit smoothies.

Yes.. you guess right..! we went hunting for Chloe’s Halloween costume. We still can’t decide what to get her. We are torn in between being fashionable and keeping her warm. This is the brat in a witch hat and a Satan’s fork.

I stopped subscribing and especially buying magazines on newstand.. because they ain’t cheap i tell you ..! but if i was reading them.. religiously.. it’s alright to buy them.. but i end up .. storing them… and never ever get back to reading it.. and it’s just a pure waste of money.

But who can resist free magazines right.. if given to you .. by your cellphone company.. for loyalty points. They do that often enough that i don’t have to subscribe to any mags laterly.. and Today’s Parent is one i really enjoy having.. even though i still haven’t finished reading the first one that I’ve gotten.

Do you buy magazines or subscribe to them…?? i used to buy Her World, Female, Home & Living and almost any women magazines back home.. but not anymore. I just can’t seems to relate to these “ang moh” magazines. What about you..??

Free Mag..!

My niece has recently taken an interest in water sports, especially diving, she is still very young but of course we want to nurture her interests. As an aunt, just like her parents, we want to make sure she gets the best in everything so we told her to first look on the web and find out where she can go for diving classes and find any info related to it.

Octopus.co.uk is a website directory for marine resources such as diving, fishing, boating and other marine travel related services. Not only did we find out more about diving we also obtained some valuable information with regards to other watersports such as a Sub Aqua Club that my niece can start with. Since they have “Try Dives” which are an ideal opportunity to see what diving is all about she will be given vital safety instructions and shown how the equipment works. After a half hour in the pool under supervision, she can then try some real training exercises.

But of course Octopus.co.uk is not only about diving but other very interesting marine resources such as fishing. I am sure folks from our fishing town will find this directory really interesting and helpful.

Well.. as you can see i watch english movies too. Evan Almighty is like Bruce Almight.. with Morgan Freeman again.. and of course my favourite actress .. Lauren Graham. Steve Carell is Evan Baxter.. and the last time we saw Evan Baxter (Steve Carell), he was being tormented by rival Bruce Nolan onscreen, live from their Buffalo TV station. But as time passed and Evan has made up with Bruce, he’s gone onto bigger and better things. Newly elected to Washington D.C. as a congressman, Evan has left Buffalo, New York in pursuit of a greater calling. But that calling isn’t serving in the illustrious ranks of America’s politics, but being summoned by the Almighty himself (Morgan Freeman), who has handed Evan the task of building a new ark, much as Noah did before. With time passing by and his family belittled by Evan’s newfound realization, Evan will have to do the work that God has given him in what promises to be an unusual adventure for a man who just wanted to serve his country, might actually be serving humanity.

Shopping smart is what we women do best. Tell me which woman who doesn’t love a good bargain.. a good sale.. or a discounted item. Even my grandmother loves to buy things only when they are a great buy. And women are just such smart creatures.. i’ll have to say we sniff out the best.

Using Discount-Search.com, one no longer need to do alot of sniffing.. because they sniffed out the best merchants, the best buys to help busy working moms like me and you to find what discount and promotions is going on .. on the web. Exclusive discounts are often found only on this site. Whether you need a mobile phone, groceries or even gardening stuff, you can find it here. Navigation is pretty simple, the site is not cluttered and you can just click whatever categories you are interested in to find what you need. Pretty simple, even my grandmother knows how to search for stuff here.

60 episodes..!! i finished the whole show yesterday nite..! told yer.. i love my chinese shows alot..! How I find time to do it..?? Well.. it has gotta be after the brat goes to bed.. and i’m having my supper.. ! Preferably .. after cooking tomorrow lunch for the brat. .and all dishes washed. So i watch the show.. and have supper .. followed by crunching ice.. once my ice is done.. then i’ll be done for the nite.. with shows.. so i get a good 1.5 a nite on it… sometimes more.. depending on what mood i am in for snacks.. I love the show.. a wee bit too long.. i’ll have to say.. but the ending.. was quite lame..! I know they collaborated with china for this movie. . and was a great effort. But some parts of the show.. you just wanna shout.. “Come On..!! move on.. will yer..!” Overall a good show.. i’ll have to say.. good actor and actresses.. ! but Lau Chung Yan who plays the lead actor .. Wah Man Hon is kinda plasticky..! if you know what i mean.

Every doctors’ office should get a Medicscan , it would make life alot easier .. for his secretary .. and the few receptionist he already have. Most doctor’s office is always fully booked.. they have so many patients.. it is no joke trying to keep up with all the filing ..and all the medical insurance card in proper order or worst, they have to keep asking the insurance card on every visit instead of having it on file.

The MedicScan will enable the secretaries to easily scan the image of all medical insurance cards of all his patients. They then can be stored as a file on your PC and even can be exported to another application and you can send the info through emails to another medical office if necessary or another computer.

Scanning is easier than ABC, because it is fully automatic. When you insert your medical card, the image processing takes place immediately. Not only does it make life easier for the patients, it is also less paperwork to keep and no more lost information or misplacing them, it will also increase productivity in the doctor’s office and no more copying the wrong insurance card numbers or names.

Seriously, I think all medical office should have a Medicscan don’t you think..?? That way, i don’t have to make sure i have my insurance card with me all the time. It would certainly make life much easier for me.. during an emergency to the doctor’s office or the hospital.
