Mick (Harry Nelken), who's probably in his 60s, and his 30-year-old partner Vivian (Brenda McLean) make the best of things by staying inside. They await a rare visit from Mick's son Claude (Andrew Cecon), a famous and wealthy teen idol. There's a poignant human dimension to Not in the father-son dynamic. When Mick confesses that he kisses the TV screen when his estranged son appears on it, it's a heart-wrenching reminder that we're increasingly sealed off from our loved ones by technology. In the final scene, global war is raging and the absurdity introduced in the second scene becomes comic. Allies, traitors and enemies have become a ludicrous jumble. [Caryl Churchill] suggests that we've already got one foot in a world of such moral confusion, eroded trust, easy rationalization and ta...
Farm group leaders, speaking at a news conference at a grain elevator just outside of Winnipeg Tuesday, said they want federal transport officials -already investigating rail service level complaints - to also examine the railways' costs in light of the findings. Terry Boehm, a farmers union vice president from Saskatchewan, said the railways have benefited greatly from grain handling system rationalization that has seen the number of Prairie grain delivery points drop to 370 from 1,500 since 1992, requiring farmers to haul longer and longer distances to the elevator.
There is very little, if any, additional emergency care capacity in the system. Every emergency physician I know has already maximized the number of shifts they are doing and taken on extra to try to relieve some of the pressure. No one I know is sitting back and waiting for a better offer before agreeing to work. The recent government strategy of throwing money at the open shifts has created a situation where doctors who only work occasional emergency shifts, and have no ongoing commitment to providing emergency care in the province, are paid more to work a few shifts over the summer than I get paid for working my regular shifts. This only creates more frustration among committed emergency medicine providers. For me this isn't about money. I think I make good money for what I do, and M...

The Transcona councillor says he's concerned about the number of entities working on various aspects of downtown revitalization, which include downtown development agency CentreVenture, The Forks-North Portage Partnership, the Winnipeg Partnership Agreement, the Exchange and Downtown Winnipeg Business Improvement Zones, the Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce and Heritage Winnipeg -- as well as the city and province. [Russ Wyatt] believes CentreVenture should be placed in charge and The Forks-North Portage should stick to... well, The Forks and the North Portage development. CentreVenture CEO Ross McGowan and Forks-North Portage CEO Jim August say it's too soon to make such a decision, even though they agree some rationalization must take place. The same dinner also saw a title change for Rive...
Goal 2, Mothers' Ambivalence toward Professionals, Mothers' compliance and resistance are fought on the battlegrounds of classrooms and doctors' offices in both countries (p. 134). In general, assessment appears to be lengthy, not only because of professionals' conservative approach but also because of mothers' resistance to the labeling of their children. Mothers of this study see teachers as contributing to their children's problems by scapegoating them, isolating and excluding them (p. 211 ). Not surprisingly, mothers want individualized attention for their children while teachers want cooperation and compliance in the interests of the group. [Claudia Malacrida]'s complains that teachers want manageable docile children and so they press for Ritalin. Mothers accommodate them rather th...

YOU tend to hear these sentiments a lot after the type of game that we came out on the short end of this weekend. The "it's only one game" rationalization, the "it's only football" perspective, and the "it wasn't meant to be" relinquishment to the gods of the gridiron. The investment doesn't simply begin in training camp or the two pre-season games that follow it. I asked Milt Stegall, theoretically if he chose to play another season, when he would start working out again in preparation for 2007. He told me sometime this week because if he doesn't stay on top of his training he loses too much weight. Whether you are a CFLer like Milt who starts up three days after the season ends or a player like former defensive end Inoke Brecterfield, who once told me he started training in May (with ...
The purpose of this article is to review the complexities associated with real property asset management. The process begins with understanding the need and the owner's objectives, planning, moving through the acquisition phase, the operation and maintenance phase, the refurbishment and enhancement phase, and, finally, the disposition of the asset. The article also explores the importance of having strategic professional staff oversee asset management on behalf of the ownership. Asset management can be defined as the process of creating value within the owner's objectives through the acquisition, use and disposal of real property assets. Alternatively, asset management is defined as the practice of maximizing the value of a portfolio of properties, within the objectives of the owner. Th...

I say B.S. to rationalization," [Brian Dobie] said yesterday, from his campus office. "I'm not sandbagging here; we've had our opportunities over the years. But we worked hard to create those opportunities. We've accomplished a lot. "There's no more, 'Wow, you turned it around!'" noted Dobie, with a wry chuckle. "I remember those days when people would say, 'What an amazing job!' We were like Cinderella. People couldn't say enough great things." "Now we take more criticism for not getting out of the conference when we're 8-0 and ranked No. 1 in the country, or whatever the case may be," Dobie allowed. "Now there's an expectation that no question the Bisons will compete. That's not the issue anymore. The issue is, 'When will the Bisons win the national championship?' I get that from st...
In laymen's terms, it's called a rationalization. And it's something I'll be doing for the next three days, I'm afraid. First, consume any food that may be stashed away in the cupboards or freezer, assuming you have a freezer at the cabin. That frozen rack of baby back ribs that's been hiding below an ice pack since Canada Day? Put it on the barbecue and slather it with sauce to disguise the freezer burn. An entire bag of potatoes growing ears behind the breakfast cereal? That's why paring knives and aluminum foil were invented. Go to a beachside snack vendor at 4:59 p.m., and try to order soft ice cream. Angrily berate the teenage kid behind the counter because it's his fault there's no more soft ice cream, which of course it means it's his fault summer is over, too. Ignore dirty looks...
