That is our ever so enviromentally concious NDP leader Jack Layton.

3697...Canadian 15 Year Olds Are Number One

Number one in the world.

In smoking the evil drug marijuana.

That is what a study that the Ottawa Citizen exposed in this morning's fishwrap claims.

The study, done by Carleton University researchers for Health Canada and the World Health Organization, puts our kids at number one out of 43 countries and regions.

3696...The Media Is Illiterate

At least stats wise.

For example media in Ottawa and the Ottawa Valley have a hate on for Cheryl Gallant. They are predicting that she will be defeated, perhaps by Hec "Summer Eyes" Cloutier.

They are wrong.

According to the 308 Blog the sitting Tory MP will get about sixty per cent of the vote; Summer Eyes will get less than one per cent.

Same goes with Jack Layton and the NDP. Sure they will hold the seats they have and probably add a few. A few not a hundred and a few. They will max out at 50 seats or less. Yes, they will finish second all over the place but silver medals are given to the first loser.

Why, why, why do the pressies do this?

Coz they are group thinking and tres lazy that is why.

3693...Johnny C Writes The World Famous

Dan --

I don’t want to take too much of your time so I’ll get right to the point.

On Monday, there is an election. And we Liberals can win. Liberals will win.

But a week is a lifetime in politics. And every minute that goes by is a chance for us to convince one more Canadian.

That’s why I need you to go all in, Dan, because this election is too important.

Canadians won’t just be casting a vote for the next government on Monday.

They will be writing the next chapter of Canadian history for a generation.

The Charter of Rights and Freedoms, universal health care, national unity, fiscal responsibility.

These are our legacy as Liberals – and I was fortunate enough to lead our Party to some of these accomplishments.

But this list can still grow: The Canadian Learning Passport. Family Care. Early Childhood Learning.

Michael Ignatieff has put forward a progressive, responsible and compassionate plan for Canadians.

It is a good plan. It will help families. And as you saw at last night's Rise Up for Canada rally, all Liberals are behind it.

In a fight this close, it could come down to just a few votes in a few ridings. It could come down to you.

Which is why I need you to donate right now, so that we can air one last round of Liberal TV ads before Monday.

It’s time to go all in. It’s time to play to win.

Len Berman, who sends me emails all the time tells me that "They've got a new food item at the ballpark in Cedar Rapids Iowa. The Kernels are offering a 2-pound pretzel. My daughter, the nutritionist, tells me that's about 2840 calories, with close to 600 grams of carbohydrates or about 40 slices of bread. You're invited to give the jumbo pretzel a name. Is the name, 'It's like eating two whole loaves of bread at once' taken?"

This is in a state that has no health care and, presumably, for those who eat the pretzel, short life spans.

3689...You Thought Paying 1.30 A Litre Was Mad

A cut and paste job from The Local:


STUTTGART, Germany - German drivers were left stunned Tuesday after a gas station was caught charging €9.99 ($14.59) per liter in a bid to stop customers from filling up.

The station was running low amid a nationwide shortage due to Easter traffic and a holiday ban on fuel tankers.

Police were called to the Esso gas station near Stuttgart late Monday after it raised the price -- equivalent to $40 a gallon -- in a deliberate move to deter motorists, German news website The Local reported.

Several customers filled up without noticing the hike, despite warning signs on the pump not to do so, German newspaper Bild reported. One customer told Bild he put 21 litres in his BMW and was asked to pay €209.98.

"I didn't pay attention to the price. Who expects something like that? Nearly €10 for one litre? It's a swindle," Yunus G. said.

Customers slugged with the staggering bills called police, but were told they needed to pay. The gas station had done nothing wrong, police said, because the price was determined by head office.

The drivers eventually paid for their gas, but were hoping to sort out a compromise with Esso Tuesday.


Hey, look on the bright side. Y'd get a lot of Esso points.

New study swears kids who spend lots of time online get more sex, drink more.

And, tear to my eye, it's from Canada. About our kids.

As reported in Preventitive Medicine Magazine, the current issue, epidemiology PhD candidate Valerie Carson, from an unnamed [or I forget coz I am online so much] university says that since teens who are into being on line they are getting more.

"This research is based on social cognitive theory, which suggests that seeing people engaged in a behaviour is a way of learning that behaviour," explains Carson. "Since adolescents are exposed to considerable screen time – over 4.5 hours on average each day – they're constantly seeing images of behaviours they can then potentially adopt."

Well Crystal Mangum, the stripper who falsely accused three Duke lacrosse players of rape in 2006 has been charged with murder. Her boyfriend up and died after she allegedly stabbed him. A lot.

It made page B 14 of the New York Times. Back in '06 the paper adopted her case as a political cause, and a columnist accused the players of "white privilege" even after it was clear they were innocent.

Then those pesky little rules got in the way, like the cheerleaders actually had to be real students at the school. Turns out they used ringers and they had to forfeit their crown.

Len Berman sums up the deal this way "If you don't know, it all began in 1952. At that time, you needed 8 wins to capture the Stanley Cup, and since an octopus has 8 tentacles (oct, get it?).....voila. Well a huge controversy has erupted. Apparently the NHL has asked Detroit police to crackdown on the octopus hurlers. During game one of the playoffs, one fan was fined $500 and ejected from the arena for his mollusk toss. I think the NHL should take the opposite tack. Embrace it. Organize it. Hold an "octopi bobble-arm night.." And for goodness sakes, let 'em throw. Hey it's sports. Can we have some fun around here?"

5 Powerful Fat-Fighting Spices
by Jon Benson

Parsley: Improves digestion so you can use
the foods you eat. The more food you "use"
the less you store as bodyfat.

Basil: Known to us pros as the "secret"
appetite-suppressing herb. Yep... it makes
you feel more full. Fantastic for killing those
late-night carbohydrate cravings.

Oregano: Reduces bloating! I love that.
When you are cutting body fat, you often get
tricked into believing belly bloat is belly
"fat"... but it's not. It's water pulled in from
cells during fat loss processes. Oregano
helps reduce it.

Rosemary: Helps keep you calm and lowers
the bellyfat-storing hormone "cortisol". It's
nature's best cortisol-lowering spice.

Black Pepper: Known fatburner, and it just
tastes really good. Plus a really powerful anti-
oxidant!

In other words, business as usual. Try telling that to the lowly team employees who have been laid off or have had their salaries slashed"

That's right, we forgot about the regular working slugs that don't make a million a year for word processing. Or, come the fall, the kids that are paying their way through college as vendors during NFL games.

I had to go all the way to France's the FrenchTribune.com for this oh so Canuck story:

No more hockey chatter and other unrelated banter in the operating room will be allowed to B. C. surgeons now onwards as British Columbia medical officials have warned the surgeons to stop the hockey chit-chat in operating rooms, which could upset patients.

The National Hockey League is just around the corner. And thus the advisory has been issued by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of B. C. to the 11,000 doctors of the province reminding them talking only about things related to the surgical task are allowed in the operating room.

Dr. Heidi Otter, Registrar of the province's College of Physicians and Surgeons said that they have issued this advice post listening to a complaint of the patient, who said that his surgeon was discussing a hockey game with nurses while he was operating his eye. Dr. Otter has further marked that a reminder has been included in the quarterly report, which was posted on the licensing body's website last December.

"In a patient-centred system, you first consider the patient. Some patients may want to hear their surgeon announce what is happening and other patients may not want to hear a word," she said.

Not just figuratively either.

Thanks to the National Post we all know that "Stephen Harper entertained embattled former aide Bruce Carson and his former fiancée at the prime minister's official residence during a going-away party for outgoing chief of staff Ian Brodie in 2008, a media report said Monday night. Mr. Carson, a former top advisor to Mr. Harper, was convicted of five counts of fraud in the 1980s. According to the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network and confirmed by the Conservative party, Mr. Carson took his former fiancée Barbara Lynn Khan -a former escort -to 24 Sussex in June 2008. Ms. Khan told APTN that she found Mr. Harper "approachable" and "friendly" during a conversation. The Prime Minister's Office has asked the RCMP to investigate accusations that Mr. Carson told representatives of a water purification company, allied to his current fiancée Michelle McPherson, that he could secure a connection to the Prime Minister's Office, ostensibly, to help set up contracts with First Nations communities. Mr. Harper contends that had he known more about Mr. Carson's past, he never would have brought him into his inner circle."

All in all still one to watch.

3633...Stephen Harper Hated By Press Gallery

That is what you will read in Mark Bonokoski's Toronto Sun piece this day.

Mr. Bonokoski reports that another scribe, John Ibbitson of the Globe and Mail, wrote that in La Presse, a Montreal broadsheet.

In and of itself that is the beauty of pur beloved Prime Minister. He doesn't give a flying f@ck what the press or the chattering classes think of him. He is not in Ottawa to build up his Facebook friends. He is on Ottawa to do a job.

Of course we do not have his confirmation of such. We will have to wait til he writes his memoirs. Which, for Canada's sake, will start May 3.

Fingers crossed.

3628...Tim Hudak: The Wheels Fall Off

Tim Hudak, the leader of the Ontario Tories should be coasting to victory this October versus Premier Dalton McGuinty.

Do not read this as a diss towards the Premier. Lord knows I am voting for him and there is no doubt in mind that he has done right by Ontario.

Nonetheless things should be rosy for Team Hudak.

So what does the Buffalo Bill fan do? He throws 34 year MPP and ex cabinet miniister Norm Sterling under the bus. Smooth move. Better yet Mr. Sterling is considering, according to what I read in the Ottawa Citizen, running as an independent this fall. If Mr. Sterling runs as an independent that opens the door for a McGuintyite to sneak up the middle.

Four more years.

Thank you Mr. Bills fan.

Roger Goodell, the commishuner on the locked out NFL tells the world that he is going to be diligently having his peeps test for HGH, human growth hormone, and steroids.

Of course not.

But...Tim Harper writes in the Toronto Star this morning that "Five years ago, the RCMP turned an election in Stephen Harper's favour. This week, with his campaign under fire for booting young voters from his rallies, the Mounties fell on their batons. For a national police force already in turmoil, it was just another in a string of controversies."

Police, the RCMP specifically, are great at policing but when they, for wont of other words, stretch, they Peter Principle themselves.

Silvio Berlusconi is the Prime Minister of Italy and Reuters reports that his sex trial has been adjourned until the last day of May.

3619...Score One For Women

It has been reported widely that the Olympics will be adding women's ski jumping.

Len Berman says that "...women ski jumpers have been trying forever to get in. In fact, they weren't prevented from competing, they just would have had to do it against men. I covered ski jumping at the Salt Lake games. Most of the jumpers were little guys. It makes sense. It's easier to fly through the air if you're not fat. I equated it to 'jockeys on skis.' And what went unsaid: eating issues. Were ski jumpers starving themselves to stay thin? And will that be an even bigger issue with the women? Too much information?"

Any action that gives women more opportunity is so allllllright by moi.

3617...Sad News For The Stephen Harpers

The Huffington Post is reporting that Glenn Beck will be transitioning off of his daily program on Fox News.

Jack Mirkinson of HuffingtonPost.com says, "Beck's production company, Mercury Radio Arts, will instead work with Fox News to produce programs for the channel."

In a joint news release, Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, Mr. Beck's production company, said that they will "...work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the Fox News Channel as well as content for other platforms including Fox News’ digital properties."

Mr. Beck, the statement said, would "...transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year."

Now where will our beloved PM go for outdated ideas?

3616...Not All Commercialism Is Gross

From Len Berman's sports blog comes this piece about uncrass commercialism:

Not all commercial tie-ins are bad. The San Diego Padres have come up with a good one. If a Padres player hits a homer into a can of paint, $500,000 goes to charity. The local paint company has erected a 10-foot paint can 376 feet from home plate. I like it. I'd like it even better if players from both team were eligible. And how long before a giant cup of Budweiser appears at Busch Stadium?


Perhaps we could bring this to Canada, eh? But instead of baseball use the leaders of the five major parties [note to Kieran Green: yes, Liz May is welcome for this one] and the one who asks the ditziest question gets dumped into a giant Timmy's double double.

3615...How Not To Watch Porn In The Capital

In your car.

This bit from the Albany Times-Union.


A man was arrested in a parking lot and charged with public lewdness Tuesday after employees at a nearby hotel saw him masturbating in his car.

Chad E. Latour of Whitehall was allegedly using the hotel's wireless Internet access to surf the Web for pornography, according to a statement from the Warren County Sheriff's Office. Employees at the hotel called the police. Latour was given a ticket and told to return to Queensbury Town Court on a date not yet scheduled.


At minimum rent a room dude.

3614...Leaders Lead

Simon Houpt in the Globe and Mail today writes that "A slick new Conservative television ad that seeks to present Stephen Harper as a statesmanlike leader bears an unusual number of similarities to a recent commercial for the Tea Party-backed Republican former governor of Minnesota, Tim Pawlenty, and his 2012 presidential run. The 60-second Tory spot titled Our Country, which unfolds like the trailer for a Hollywood political thriller or a boastful Molson Canadian ad, mixes archival scenes from Canada’s glorious past, including the 1988 Olympic torch relay and a black-and-white newsreel snippet of marching soldiers, with sweeping images of the country’s awesome geography, fighter jets and a multicultural passel of faces."

The deal is, Stephen Harper, you are always one or three steps behind the Yanks.

Leaders lead my Prime Minister, leaders lead.

Except one.

Watch, if you may, A-Channel Ottawa's morning show. OMG, OMFG, sooooo sad. There has been a bit of a shake up with the group in Ottawa. The two decade old morning team at Majic has been quit; the other FM morning show in the building, has been shuffled. The shuffling has taken away at least one of the women personalities, Angie Poirier, from A in the morning and the other woman, Lianne Laing, not in sight this am. Soooooooooooo the two that are left, Kurt Stoodley and Bill W. are, well, a bit, sad. Especially Mr. Stoodley. He looks like someone killed his puppy in front of him before he went to work.

So shut the f*ck up, k?

Tonight at 9 the world, well me, will be hovered over the Sylvania coz this is it. 'tis the end of the tourney and tonight's NCAA Championship game between Butler, last year's runner up, and U-Conn tips off at 9:23 Eastern on CBS.

And TSN. But watch the CBS feed coz you will get the Yankee adverts and they are soooooooo much better.

For those of you who are more hardcore, the women's final tomorrow night will feature two surprise teams, Notre Dame and Texas A&M. U-Conn wins this thing like every year and had won something like 999 of their last 1000 games. Not last night. The Irish upset two time defending champs 72-63.

As in bullseye.

I am sure you have heard the tale of Ryan Keon who is running for the Reds in a riding, Nepean Carleton, against that little sh*t Pierre Poilievre.

The tale, widely reported, is that Mr. Keon's signs, a hundred or more, were defaced with said bullseyes. The National Post quotes our beloved PM and "...Conservative leader Stephen Harper [who] said defacing candidates' signs is never acceptable. 'Our campaign does not have the time to do that. We've got enough to do to get our own signs up, as we've got lots of demands for signs across the country.'"

Pretty organized for vandals.

Here is my advice for Mr. Keon. Leave the f*cking signs up.

Everytime they are viewed it will remind folks what a little sh*t Pierre Poilievre is.
