Just another typical day

Today news....

Bob Rae had his liberal leadership race tarnished when ex Canadian finance minister,Ralph Goodale descided to back Rae.

Canada's Auditor General, Sheila Fraser(gotta love her) released another scathing report today. Loaded with plenty of liberal leftoverruns and abuses. Take your pic from many (PDF documents) including:

Chapter 3 — Large Information Technology Projects. Projects over budget and over due!

Chapter 5 — Relocating Members of the Canadian Forces, RCMP, and Federal Public Service. This little number has been in the news before. When the contract was first handed out it was done unfairly so they tried again. Again it went to the same folks and again, so it seems.... unfairly! Not to mention they are making a damn good return on their investments. At the tax payers expence of course.

Chapter 11 — Protection of Public Assets—Office of the Correctional Invesitgator. Ex CFL football star takes tax payers for a Roughride(r).

The Gun registry is back in the news.

The Liberals and Bloc Quebecois have joined forces to urge the Conservative government to get tougher on gun control. Their proposals include cancelling plans to scrap the long-gun registry, prohibiting use of semi-automatic weapons, and ending the amnesty for gun owners who don't renew licences or register weapons.

How many law abiding citizens of this country have to pay the price for the criminals? The gun registry will never stop anyone from using a gun to do harm or commit a crime. It will never stop anyone who wants a gun from getting one in the black market. It will never save a single life. The only thing it does do is take money from the law abiding citizen and put in the governments hands. Hell the fee's don't even come close to covering the outragous cost of the thing. Please note... Although I love to go hunting a fishing, the only thing I shoot with is a camera. I do not own any guns. Some say my mouth is a loaded weapon though.

Last but not least;
A study suggests your mother and teachers were all wrong! Don't sit up straight!

The safest posture, which put least strain on spinal discs and surrounding muscles and tendons, was the substantially more relaxed 135 degree backward sprawl, the researchers found.

"This may be all that is needed to prevent back pain, rather than trying to cure pain that has occurred over the long term due to bad posture," said Waseem Bashir, a doctor on the study from the University of Alberta, Canada.
