When you are struggling with a tough problem, take a little break and have a little think before you try again.

South Asian Festival of Lights on Gerrard Street East
The kids were playing outside the library, sheltered from the drizzle. I did my best to hold my Playbook steady. Happy Diwali!
MAP to ROM
Museum Access Passes (MAP) are available, free of charge, to holders of Toronto Public Library cards. New batches come out each week on Saturday and some are more popular than others. If you want a pass for the Science Centre, Zoo or ROM, you have to get up early and wait for an hour or two before selected branches open.
I went a couple of months ago and scored a ROM pass for visitors who were staying with us. It was never used, so yesterday Danica and I used it before it expired. What a lovely place to spend a few hours. Too much to see in just one visit, so we concentrated on early Canadiana, plus a tour through the ever- popular dinosaur exhibits.
This gives me an opportunity to try out a new WordPress plugin for slides.
Harper makes his "I am not a crook" speech
It didn’t work for Nixon, but Harper hopes to tough it through his credibility problems with sheer bluff and bluster. Does he have any other option? A frank disclosure of the facts? I don’t think so, not this late in the game.
