Superman Coming To The Big Screen December of 2012

Now here is a feller that in my mind is doing more for this world than any Power That Be ever did.  Who is he well take a look.

The new Superman has been cast, and the lucky actor to don the blue tights will be British actor Henry Cavill.

Cavill, 27, beat out reported rivals Jon Hamm and Joe Manganiello to star in the next yet-untitled Superman movie that Warner Bros. will release in December 2012.

Yep Superman. Seems to me that as long as I have been alive, a good number of years,  this fellow has and still is bringing folks to their TV sets and movie theatres in groves.  Why is this?? Simple.  The world needs a hero and always has needed a hero.

Yes Superman has done his part and will continue to do his part bringing truth and  justice to us mere mortals, in a way that no other can do. Great Feller and no more needs to be said.

Laws, Smoking, Life In General, What’s Happening In Todays World

Canada is losing the war on cheap contraband cigarettes.

Critics and activists say there is no other conclusion to be drawn, given that the number of smokers is holding steady and police, despite herculean efforts, are fighting a losing battle.

Health care officials across the country are standing by somewhat helplessly as a sea of illegal smokes washes over the country. .

Now reading this one would think that we are in really big trouble when it comes to folks smoking.  Let me enlighten you a touch here or should say let me sprout my opinion on what I believe is happening.

First off it seems now a days that it is ok for the Powers That Be to make drugs and sell them to us, but it isn’t ok for us to grow or produce our own for our own use.  That is actually what is really happening here in our world today.  It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realise that the more one puts regulations on things and the more they bring up laws of what is safe for us and what is not, the more folks will rebel, and, well, bottom line that is what they are doing or trying to do.  Trying to make folks stop smoking is like telling a young child that, that cookie sitting in front of him or her with the chocolate on top is bad for you and you can’t have it.  Let me tell you, soon as you turn your head that cookie will be gone, down the hatch simple as that.   Thing is folks we aren’t children, or are we?  I am inclined to believe though that is what the Powers That Be would like you to believe.  Same as guns here in Canada.  The more restrictions they put upon folks the more guns will be smuggled into this country.  I wouldn’t hesitate to bet there is truck loads of them just waiting for someone to pick them up somewhere. Same goes for cigarettes.    We are humans, and dam, even in the bible,  if that is what you believe in,  says we were given free will to do with our lives as we so choose.    At any rate, what I am trying to say here is, that if the Powers That Be keep on trying to force their beliefs and things down our throats, the more folks will take it upon themselves and go the opposite way. They will seek out places to buy what they want and that’s that. No Power on earth will stop them.    It has been that way since the beginning of time and will continue on being that way.   The newspapers are full of articles that say things are bad, but in reality they aren’t, folks are just trying to survive the way they choose,  not the way of others.   Huh, and I was only going to say a couple words on the subject.  My Opinion only as usual.

 

 

We Want Our Internet Back

I was going to write up an article on what you can do now that these Powers That Be has got us horn tied to their wishes.  But came across this article that pretty well says exactly what is on my mind.  There are still ways to do things and this article pretty well says it all.  My Opinion Only

What Can You Do?

The fact is it costs less than a few cents, in most cases less than a penny, for an ISP to move a GB (gigabyte) of data. They plan on charging many times the cost of transferring this data and profiting off consumer usage by only offering low capacity levels from the start. This is not about stopping network abusers, it is about profiting off the average consumer family, we doubt there are many families out there who can remain below the low 25GB monthly allotment of data.

So, what can you do? Sign the petition available at www.stopthemeter.ca, over 140,000 Canadians have already signed this petition.

Contact your local Member of Parliament, Industry Minister Tony Clement, your local council, your local media and anyone else you think can help.

And if you experience a bill or warning due to usage, speak with your money and move your account away from Bell, Rogers and Shaw. If possible move all your services away from them, hurting their bottom line can work, especially if it will have a negative impact on their stock prices. Even if you’re stuck with the same caps at a small independent ISP at least you are sending a message, and helping these independents survive to help consumers fight this battle.

For residents in the Maritimes, Eastlink have stated they do NOT intend to charge UBB.

For residents in Manitoba, MTS may be your best bet.

For residents of Saskatchewan, SaskTel have announced they do NOT intend to charge UBB.

For Alberta and British Columbia residents, Telus are your best bet at this time, especially if you are in an Optik capable area. Telus provides 250GB of data per month for the same price Shaw only gives 100GB. Note, there are no guarantees with Telus of course due to their close ties with Bell Canada, but it has been said that they do NOT intend to follow their lead by drastically reducing customer internet caps.

For Ontario and Quebec residents, if you are lucky enough to have cable services not from Rogers you might be ok,  if your only choices are Bell or Rogers then please choose an alternate independent ISP such as TekSavvy they would be my choice.  Great folks to deal with too.

You can also hurt them by cutting back on specialties on your cable or satellite services and using alternative telephone services such as VOIP (providing you can get a decent internet connection that is!).

It’s time to fight back Canada.
