The "DIET BOOK" Phenomena...

Working for a book store allows me to view the most recent publishings of all kinds of books...

We have had to expand the section for "diet books"..and "diet trends"

What is your opinion on these books?...do you think they are really helpful or is is a money thing??

How do you know which one would be good for you...and why?

Some of them that seem to hit the market really big is the:

GI diet
Southbeach Diet
The Greene Diet (Bob Greene's Book)
The Eat Green Diet (Tosca's Book)
The Rice Diet

dunno

TAX TIME

Anyone here "dreading" this time as much as I am??

Purchased a new book just revised/expanded and released called "Tax Tips That Revenue Canada Does Not Want You To Know"...

Does anyone here have any "tax tips" that help them with their returns??

frustrated sigh

Truancy.....Any Recourse??

That sounds about right....sigh

However...I have heard that because they are minors that the parents can be held liable and/or "charged" (not sure what type of charges would apply here....perhaps contributing to the delinquency of a minor?)

On the other hand if you do try to get help, even if none if forthcoming...in the event that "charges" rise up at least you have some sort of defense in the fact that you did at least attempt to get assistance....

but i agree with Bobby....DAMN GOVERNMENT!!very mad

RE: ENGAGEMENT PARTY-LONDON ON

Just checking in with everyone to make sure things are on track....I have to submit for my time off today...(need the whole weekend applause )...

I think i asked before but just in case...is there a "dress" code for this event??



BTW...Kiley love the new pic...you are one GORGEOUS woman!!!wine

War Criminals....Should They Be Charged??

Thank you...I see your point...and it was well made...

Though everyone is in agreeance some sort of retribution has to be made...I was curious as to who they thought should be the one to stand trial for it...

As i said i have just finished reading a book by William Sampson...but i was also thinking of the "criminals" in the past years that have been charged with war crimes in Europe...but wondering if indeed the right men/women were facing the charges...

Thank you again for a simplified version..handshake


Just curious though...who should an officer turn to if they feel that the order they were given was "unlawful"???dunno

Truancy.....Any Recourse??

By the way one of the things that i found out from a young student that works with me is that the driving laws have changed....you may not get a driver's license if you are a high school drop out....

Truancy.....Any Recourse??

Thanks so much for the advice...it is not my child that i'm talking about so the "talking things over" is not a full option (I will still try thought)...but i was sure that either the school or truancy office could get involved somehow...thank you for confirming that...handshake cheers

War Criminals....Should They Be Charged??

But then you see my point here...this is not a "random" crime where a person is held responsible for a crime against another person....
This is war...and there are "countries" involved....so yes someone needs to be held responsible for crimes that go over and above the "norm"...but who is that...

People giving orders?...people carrying out orders?...Who??

War Criminals....Should They Be Charged??

..."The old argument is that these people are different today...they may very well be, but they still need to be held accountable for the inhumane acts that they have committed upon their victims!!!!!!!"...

But then where do you start to lay blame??...Orders are passed down, orders are carried out...who gets to be the person held responsible for it all??

War Criminals....Should They Be Charged??

But if this was all done in the name of "war"...couldn't they argue the point that had it not been for the circumstances they would not have done such things??




And i'm not disagreeing with you D...i'm just playing devils advocate here...handshake

Truancy.....Any Recourse??

If you have a minor (teen) that will not go to school, no matter what you do or threaten....does anyone know of any recourse for this?

frustrated

Should War Criminals Be Charged After The Fact??

I am just reading a book written by the Canadian William Sampson about his captivity in a Saudi Prison...

I recalled some time back about German officials being charged with "war crimes" committed during World War II...

My question is do you think that High Ranking Officials should be charged at this time for activities that occurred during "war times"?

Should anyone really be held responsible for supposed "atrocities" during war...and why?

And what constitutes "war crimes" in your opinion??

Any Readers In The House???

Just reading a book about William Sampson...a Canadian that was taken prisoner in Saudi for a trumped up bombing charge...

It tells his story as a prisoner there and what he endured...blues barf

RE: This Kinda Upsets Me .. What About The Rest Of Canada

To me this sounds much like the point i was trying to make in the "Equal Rights' thread...

Here is a province that has decided this is good for them, have rallied to pass the bill giving them this "holiday"...but everyone wants "equal rights" though it was only this province that initiated it...roll eyes
If I'm not mistaken this province is also somewhat "tax exempt" due the oil production???

In any case Ontario houses the parliament, so what do get for this privilige?? Higher taxes, higher costs, mandatory multi-lingual signs that we fund....and though everyone gripes about it, no one really does anything about it...

How's that for equality???dunno

RE: Ladies would u date a shorter man?

..."A man can be 5'8" tall for all I care but his personality is 10 feet tall..........and THAT is an attractive "height" for me"...

That's what i'm talking about Rose!!applause

Clay is 5'7"..which is still taller than me...but the shortest man i've ever gone out with...however I can honestly say that he is by far one of the most handsome "drop dead gorgeous" men - inside and out - that i have ever met...and i absolutely adore him...smitten

Depression...

I'm so sorry to hear that L....I'm sure its that last thing you needed right now...

Please try to take the time to "collect" yourself...and then look at this as an opportunity to start a new chapter in your life....hug

RE: What's Best??

Well its in the "eyes" of the beholder...and "eyes" are acclaimed to be the windows of the soul...

That being said...I think my "mouth" is my best feature...laugh kiss

RE: Your Province

Here here Bobby!!thumbs up

Oh..yeah...and its covered in snow right now!mumbling

RE: Ladies would u date a shorter man?

I think that's an unfair statement....

The women that posted their replies on here gave their reasons (and sound ones) as to why a certain height would appeal to them...and none said it had anything to do with appearance or the person, as a matter of fact it was stated that if the "right" person came along the height WOULD NOT be an issue...

There is such a thing as being "small" and having a "large" presence...I know...because i pull that off all the time!!grin

RE: A female emails you first on a dating site... a bad sign?

..."A female emails you first on a dating site... a bad sign?'...

Only if you're not attracted to confident women....


If "scams" are a concern because of who makes the first move....then what's the point of being on a dating site....especially a paid one?
dunno

RE: Ladies would u date a shorter man?

I'm 5' so I guess most men are taller than me....dunno

I can say from experience though...when the right person comes along...."height" is not an issue really...cuz you just don't "see" that..smitten

RE: Farewell Anna Nicole Smith!

You already know how I feel about all the hype over this woman....so you would have known "paragon of virtue" was tongue in cheek...wink grin

RE: Farewell Anna Nicole Smith!

Chances are if you had known it was I who wrote that you wouldn't have even needed to read my post to know in what "context" i spoke...tongue laugh beer

RE: Farewell Anna Nicole Smith!

Sorry Arthur...it was me that used "paragon of virtue"...but it was tongue in cheek and meant sarcastically....laugh

What Was In??

If the young people today could only know....we BEEN THERE DONE THAT!!!rolling on the floor laughing
