Since I am from Canada, I do not know from the rest of the world, but lately with the controversial of Google Street View, I noticed another issue: since Google has an open API, and also you can add things to the maps, its prone to errors. There was one locale that I was trying to locate on Google Maps, which I will point to it on a link: http://peek.snipurl.com/j4c1a [maps_google_ca]
then I will point to another point on Google Map: http://snipurl.com/j4cno [maps_google_ca]: (note for the unverified listing) http://snipurl.com/j4cno

Google Maps is good, but there are a few concerns:
1. people can put anything.(sometimes out of date or even couple off blocks off for places of interest or businesses)
2. I wonder Google Maps have somebody or groups to verify the points to make sure these are correct(Google does put unverified)?
3. When I went to one locale, it was at least more then 10 blocks off my origin intended. (That would relate to the instructions given, even though Google said its on beta and do not claim responsibility, I still think that so many people now depend on Google Maps)
4. I use both Google Maps on desktop and mobile, mobile is far a better platform to use.
Before I read this article, I went and listened on an author: Kate Harding on fat acceptance. (Thats how I would say I conduct my life in someways.) Her recent book: Lessons from the Fat-o-sphere said that obesity is not the biggest health problem, expect in extreme cases. (I am not a health expert.) I haven't been overweight before, but I do witness people with chubby or slim bodies do have a rough time to keep up their lifestyles. Its work after your workday. Not that we don't enjoy our workouts, but if its work, we need to find a routine or food that we do enjoy, so that healthy lifestyles would not wane after a while. It would be understandable that somedays you would not have the whole hour to do your workout or eat a complete hearthy meal, but self-esteem has to do a great deal with your weight, would you think?

Ah, I really feel sorry for the parents! The dear toddler must be unable to tell the difference between a real digger to a toy digger. I must admit it was cute to see a story about a toddler surfing online in the middle of the night and learning so quickly online about online auction? Hmmm, any toddler can answer me if you know how to bid in an auction?
Update: Toronto Star interview article with the author
I do drink my OJ & other juices every other day or so. I heard the interview from the author: CBC:Q
After that, I went and looked up: concentrated vs not concentrated. Most frozens are concentrated. Lots of popular OJs are not concentrated. Oh, well, some organic OJs are not concentrated. Now, lets briefly mention about Apple juices. Apple Ciders are concentrated. (as far as I know, for the freshest ones)
Do you know of any juices that are squeezed fresh? I do have a fresh watermelon!
One of the few enjoyment in my life and also my feature blogging section feature: unOfficial Movie are about Movie Festivals, entertainment, current happenings of worth noting(celebrities)...
Film: Cannes Film Festival: A Brand New Life: It was a semi-autobiography that was set in 1975 about a Korean orphan living in a Catholic run place.
I have to say this is absolutely a good find from BuzzFeed! If u don't know what BuzzFeed is I should let u in briefly what it is: they feature things that I want to pass along, sometimes, some of them are worth passing along.
Not to look at the chart above: if your job evolves with social networking, that may insult u. Otherwise, continue.
If your addicted to social networking and its not your full-time job, or you really need a job: go on to recovery. Good luck though, because today as I was lining up at the druggist store, the line could not get any longer! They are not hiring more folks. More efficiency, they said! (more like maximum benefit & minimum output, yikes!) There must be humour to lazyness or economic recovery!
What never fails to make you laugh?
Submitted by BeautifullyBroken.The Simpsons, they do not cease to make me laugh on Sundays. Plenty of Sundays for a matter of fact and for their reruns when I watched them.
