You look at the fact that we don't have the same cyclical booms and busts that Alberta does," he says. "You don't have the same sensitivity to manufacturing and financial services that Ontario does.
"It's more from a credit rating point of view," [David Derwin] says about purchasing Manitoba bonds. "Look at the State of California; it's having financial issues. It's not that you will have to sell the bonds, but over the long term things can happen. We have a stable situation in Manitoba so that 10 years out, we won't have as many worries as other governments might."
"The problem is it's irrelevant that they are in Manitoba," she says. "I fear that this would become the driving force behind someone's desire to invest."

WE'VE long classified homebuyers into categories such as "yuppies" and "dinks," but the American housing scene, with its mortgage industry problems and rising prices, has spawned a new business culture and a new acronym.
In the United States, "yupcaps" -- "young urban professionals, can't afford property" -- are becoming more recognizable figures at show homes and open houses.
I was a yupcap," says Jeff Langholz, CEO of Home Equity Share. "I am a college professor who could only afford what seemed to be the last affordable house in the state of California -- a rusty old double-wide trailer.

The whole idea behind JEPRS, said Catalyst's Andrew Zdunich, is to help disaster managers do their jobs better. With a solid military background in emergency management planning, Zdunich knows how EOCs (emergency operations centres) work. "Typically everything winds up on a white board," he said. "JPERS essentially replaces that functionality? Working within the familiar Windows interface, managers can plot and manage all the information that comes into the EOC, placing it on maps, backing it up with descriptive information, and 'publishing' it via the Internet to wherever it's needed.
As much as possible, Zdunich said, JEPRS has stayed with tried and tested standards in the disaster management field. For example, like many tools and organizations, the software uses standard forms desig...

* Speaking of California wines, the California Wine Fair, a travelling exhibition of the Golden State's best, is skipping Winnipeg this year. Last year's fair touched down here mid-March, but we didn't make the list this time around. Apparently the fair decided to run a test market this year in Moncton, N.B., instead.
I couldn't dig up the blend of grapes on this new, fruity bubbly, but I don't think it really matters much. There's a creamy, floral aspect to the nose, with some intense mango flavours on the palate. The bubbles are intense as a result of tank fermentation (as opposed to bottle fermentation), and the acidity is low. This would be great with fresh peaches or a fruit-flavoured gelati.
Now here's a wine I've walked by 100 times in stores and never thought of reviewing. It'...

Apparently, he was looking underneath it and what had been hoisted up fell on his head," [Dina Vieira] said, adding the man worked for Toromont Cat.
"It's extremely sad and our heart goes out to his family," Vieira said.
California state legislators passed laws requiring better protection of consumers from merchandise falling from "sky shelves" -- warehouse-style shelves that tower metres above shoppers' heads in retail stores.
