  • The roof system used at Millennium Water is an extensive 'blanket' type of system developed over the past 40 years in Germany by Xero Flor. It incorporates the vegetation, water retaining fleece, drainage barrier and root barrier in one. The plants are grown in fields, then rolled up and transported to the rooftop and installed. It's a lightweight system that can be used in many homes. A green roof will outlast traditional roofs by decades. Since the actual roof membrane is shielded from the sun's UV rays, and protected from wind, temperature extremes and thermal stress of a freeze-thaw cycle, the roof will last longer. That means all the cost of re-roofing (consumer cost, cost to the environment to create new roofing materials, and the cost to dump the old roof into a landfill) are red...

  • BALSILLIE, Gladys Eva "Gladdie," - entrepreneur, burlesque agent (b March 27, 1919, RM of Franklin, MB; d Jan 9, 1987, Winnipeg) was known as the "Queen of the Strippers," reigning over Winnipeg's exotic dance industry for nearly 20 years. Gladys Johnston attended St. Mary's Academy, a Roman Catholic private school, and then took up flying at the Winnipeg Flying Club, helping to form the Women's Auxiliary before marrying lounge musician Reginald Balsillie at age 21 and becoming his booking agent. The couple eventually saved enough from Reginald's shows to purchase a Main St restaurant called the Swinging Gate in 1961. The restaurant became a favourite hangout for Winnipeg Blue Bombers players. Gladys tended bar until the restaurant closed in 1967, after which she set up a bartending sch...

  • You can't always trade tips or technique over the neighbour's fence when problems arise in the garden. That's why it's handy to have a written resource at your fingertips. But, browsing the bookstore shelves or surfing the web for gardening reference books turns up thousands of volumes. How do you know which words of wisdom are appropriate for your situation? For instance, it stated the prevailing winds in Canada are from the northwest. That is something I never really thought about until I moved into my northwest-facing apartment and have had to contend with winds that shear the plants' flowers and foliage right off the stems. (In fact, I'm watching my plants blow around the balcony right now. They look like they've been beaten with an stick.) Here's a few tips.... You should be able t...

  • La question de à exportation de l'eau en gros soulève discussion dans les milieux politiques, économiques, écologiques et nationalistes, surtout au Canada. Cette étude en examine la faisabilité commerciale. Un projet hypothétique est conçu, avec pour site la Vallée d'Annapolis, située dans l'ouest de la Nouvelle-Ecosse, au Canada. Les données démographiques, le climat et l'économie de la Vallée sont analysés et sa ligne de partage des eaux étudiée dans le but de mieux choisir le site d'extraction. La ville de Brownsville au Texas est le marché hypothétique retenu. Un plan contenant un devis estimatif est proposé. Pour exporter l'eau, on se servira de grands transporteurs de brut (VLCC). Les calculs indiquent qu'une telle entreprise est quatre fois peu rentable, d'où la rareté de tels pr...

  • To prevent mosquitoes from breeding in bird baths, toss in pieces of lemon or Bti (Bacillus thuringiensis 'Israelensis'), available at garden retailers as mosquito dunks. Neither will hurt plants, pets or even beneficial insects. Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) is a naturally occurring soil bacterium that can effectively kill mosquito larvae present in water. If you can determine that there are no egg masses in a tree or if you have sprayed the tree, you might be able to prevent migrating caterpillars from climbing up the trunk by the use of barriers. Around the trunk, construct a barrier band made of duct tape, tinfoil or tarpaper and coat it generously with grease petroleum jelly. Never apply grease directly to the tree bark. The barrier band should be in the shade or y...
