So this farm is lying? isnt that illegal? This is what I ordered: https://www.myfarmersmarket.com/beef/2692/sirloin-steak-grass-fed-beef-15-oz-approx.html Its now $12.55 but I double checked my order and it was $9.95 when I ordered last friday. Must have got a deal. The link includes a description of the farm (Spring Creek Farm). So if you're telling me this is impossible, is there a regulatory body to talk to?

Ugh Pens. Don't do this to me

I cant say for sure but the speculation I saw was based off of some sort of wording (maybe it was the Bombers presser or someone elses) that referred to working with other groups to make it a reality and that got people assuming it was another ownership group and True North would be the first to come to mind. Especially because TN and the Bombers collaborate on other projects already.

Interesting to hear. Did see it on another forum that TNSE was rumored to be involved.

Seems an odd topic for the football section if True North owns it ;-)

Anyone know anything about this? Rumor is, True North are the owners, to play at IGF: http://canpl.ca/article/a-new-era-in-canadian-professional-soccer-begins Whistler, (May 6, 2017) – In a statement today, Canada Soccer has confirmed membership of the Canadian Premier League, as well as founding cities Hamilton and Winnipeg. The proposed Canadian Premier League (CPL) has intentions to partner with strong community lead owner/operator groups in cities from coast to coast. The CPL has already received expressions of interest from 10 Canadian cities and will be assessing bids over the next 60-90 days. “The leadership of the Canadian Soccer Association has shown an outstanding commitment to its vision for the future of soccer in Canada with today’s decision to ratify the Canadian Premier League,” said Scott Mitchell, CEO of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, who has spearheaded the effort among potential ownership groups. “The CPL will fill the existing void in Canada’s national soccer development platform by operating a world-class professional league, both on and off the field.” “Today is an historic day for soccer fans, aka footie followers, in our country,” said Bob Young, Caretaker of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. “This day is only possible thanks to the unwavering support of soccer fans across Canada, such as our own Barton Street Battalion supporters.” “We know from hosting the FIFA Women’s World Cup Canada 2015 in Winnipeg that this community has an undeniable passion for the sport,” said Wade Miller, Winnipeg Football Club President and CEO. “There has been a lot of work done behind the scenes to move this endeavour forward.” For updates and more information, please go to CanPL.ca.

I wrote on this very board that my main concern going into this season was I felt the Jets had talent but a lack of grit. I agree. Would like to see Lowry play more of a role like that and hopefully Lemieux is good enough to make the team and provide some aggravation to the opposition.

I just think that ER's move too slowly. If the Doc comes in and spends five minutes with you what does he do for the other hour before he sees the next patient and how can we reduce that time? I worked at Grace Hospital years ago and we'd sometimes be enlisted with locating the doctor to wake him up. But only when there were enough patients in the waiting room to make it worth his time. 1 or 2? The doc was not even available.

Chipman's remarks are pretty pointed. I think he's referring to a big offer for Trouba. Willingness to be closer to the cap would indicate a sense they think they can win. All about cap management because they will have to re-sign these young guys (Ehlers, Laine) soon enough too.

I generally like our medical care also. Cant say I can complain about any scheduled procedures. The ER aspect of our health care is an issue and I cant believe there arent solutions to be had. What the PC's are proposing is certainly worth a try. Getting people who dont need "ER" treatment out of the ER's would help.

Week One Results (I used May 1st as my start date but didnt really start eating LCHF until Wednesday): down 9.3 lbs. Not feeling hungry. I bought a BBQ on Saturday (we had moved last fall and tossed out the old one) and celebrated the 3 hours it took me to put it together by cooking a huge steak I ordered from Myfarmersmarket.com (grass fed, no drugs). Fantastic. That website is a great resource for organic produce and other groceries. I ordered eggs and Steak (big steaks for $9.99 each). They deliver. My friend who is doing this with me, she is mid 30's and over 300, she was less strict than me and lost 2 lbs. She plans to be more strict beginning today. My gf who is a Yoga and Thai Massage instructor (Kayfabe Yoga) has been working on me and my flexibility and range of motion has improved a lot which is making exercise feel better because my knees arent killing me as much. Adding a nice long walk most days in the evening and find Im tired and having better sleep. Waking up fresher in the morning. One week down. How many more to go? We'll see...

Anyone catch American Gods? its a Starz show (so I dont know how to watch it) but it was highly touted. Fuller left Star Trek to devote his time to developing it.

Party in Edmonton tonight. Crazy. Ducks will win game 7. Good for Smashville.

Go Pens Go

Can't let caps back into it like they did tonight

Hmmmmm

http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Peter-Tessier/The-Jets-might-be-Younger-Next-Season/161/85011 In a question about the the team, in particular Jacob Trouba, Mr. Chipman extolled a bit on the direction of the roster and said this: "we believe that the roster could likely be younger next season and that by July 1st the team will be much closer to the salary cap".

That's a lot for an unproven starter. I like him a lot. But they over paid to get him before free agency. It's either bad or very good. He could be a great goalie.

JusT looking at last nights results. How deflated is Edmonton right now. Up 3-0. Lose 4-3 in double OT? Goalie makes 64 saves. Can they rebound?

@tacklewasher Its not that you've ruffled feathers, its that you've thrown cold water on a very widely accepted plan. As I've said, a month from now I might tell you you were 100% right and its a terrible plan! But I am very intrigued by the science behind it. I also agree that while some very capable people can adjust their eating for a lifetime, I doubt I can. And thats why I've failed at times in the past. But so far, what I can eat on LCHF is tastier and more filling then when I've got low fat/low calorie. My goal is to get to a goal where I can go from very low carb to "moderate carb" and thus, enjoy slamming down a pizza or shutting down Olive Garden without it being a life changing event. Everyone's successes are commendable. Hope you'll keep posting.

Well he's only got four years left. Any team that thinks they have a chance to win AND has cap space...maybe. they take a shot. Carolina?

Thats a very good point.

As Atomic said, the "idea" on LCHF is that people dont have to count calories because they will naturally eat less calories because they are fuller and not hungry. Carbs trigger increased insulin levels and insulin is the fat storage hormone. lower carbs = lower insulin levels. This is why Type 2 Diabetics can "cure" themselves on low carb plans. And why often diabetics gain weight when they have to begin taking insulin. Thats the basic science of it. I dont want to seem like im touting it...its just the one im most interested in right now. But it seems less restrictive to me because when I've done low fat/calorie reduced, I have to deny myself things I like. I still do on this but I feel better because I can have butter and eggs and beef and I feel like Im not missing out on good stuff. As much as I love everything Italian, a juicy steak will take care of the pizza craving (and the egg crust pizza I made this week was tremendous).

There are health issues associated with vaping depending on what is in there. But the "fine" vapers who do it because it looks cool do look ridiculous. My friend bought a Vaping kit in Vegas in 2008 when it was only marketed as a stop-smoking tool. He bought it for his mom. Then she heard that one of them exploded in someone's face so she stopped. I believe his dad used it though for weed.
