CALGARY -- Despite rumours of a dinner date with Prince Harry, Calgary bartender Cherie Cymbalisty was spotted having a night out with friends on the weekend.
Meanwhile, Harry, whose evening with the brunette last week has been splashed across a British tabloid, has reportedly been confined at a southern Alberta army base since his night out in Calgary.
Cymbalisty, who sold her story and photos of her cavorting with Harry at Calgary's Cowboys Niteclub to Britain's News of the World, had been hoping for a reunion with Harry over the weekend, her boss Doug Donald said yesterday.
"I think she's more than a bit disappointed," he said.

More. More than ...a bit...dissappointed. I know what she must think: what good does confining them do anyway? Heres to hoping Prince Harry can increase his vocabulary soon to include more than just 'wow...."wow"....wow!

2,155 civilians and Iraqi security forces have been killed. In one month. Last month.
Maybe the Iraqis would like to have another vote, another election, demand a recount...count the hands on the ground versus hands in the air.

LONDON (AP) - A vivid account of life inside Baghdad's Green Zone won Britain's richest nonfiction book prize on Monday.
The book paints a picture of waste, incompetence and thwarted intentions within the Coalition Provisional Authority appointed to run U.S.-occupied Iraq after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. It contrasts life in the heavily fortified Green Zone with the chaos unfolding outside.

Afghanistan's President Hamid Karzai also appeared before the cameras with [Harper] in Kabul on Tuesday, telling him:
"Canada, we are grateful to you. Canada, your assistance has meant the world for us."

Meanwhile.........
Malalai Joya, the most outspoken of the 68 women currently elected in the parliament of Afghanistan, has been suspended from parliament. A relentless critic of the warlords and assorted war criminals in the Karzai government, the legislators kicked Joya out after viewing a television interview in which she likened the parliament to a “zoo.”

The story reflects on what it means for Quebec (so? so!)
But larger than that its means the world's largest producer of aluminum and its raw component alumina would be Alcoa.
Many Canadian companies have moved their headquarters out of Quebec or downsized operations there but Alcan has stayed.
Twice the size of UC RUSAL's alumina and aluminium plant capacities, its nearest competitor. (Earlier this year RUSAL and SUAL, two Russian firms, merged in a deal that displaced Alcoa as the world’s biggest aluminium company.)
but while, heck, even Jamaica has a say. Yah, even. What will if bode for BC, the Mayor of Kitimat asks?
Alcan owes its very existence to an antitrust action in the 1920s that forced Alcoa to spin off its non-American business, and Mr. Alain Belda is hoping selling a few assets will satisfy regulators.
Meanehile, Alcoa Named to "World's Most Ethical Companies" List by Ethisphere Magazine .
...named one of the top most sustainable corporations in
the world at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Reality check: Canada remains more of a branch-plant economy than any of its G-7 peers. And the imbalance since 2000 of sales of Canadian companies to foreigners and Canadian purchases of offshore firms is $302 billion to $230 billion, respectively. And our G-7 peers aren't suffering the loss of entire sectors, as we recently have in world-class steel and mining.
When widely held targets like EnCana, Talisman, Nexen and Canadian Natural Resources start getting picked off in Stephen Harper's backyard, perhaps then, finally, his government will fashion a U.S.-style (or Italian- or Russian- or Japanese- or Indian-style) hands-off policy on assets of "strategic interest."
So says the Torionto Star.

It happens.
not sureMight be my last entry in a while (hello?-lol..yak yak yak)
as Im out of disk space and might have buy more who knows maybe go Pro
or just cut away to make more room.
I have a very old cheapo computer to work with here with an old OS. It finds it hard to accept fast moving graphics and frequently feels overwhelmed. It finds it hard to work with Java and I usually more often than not turn Java 'off' and do not load images to save having to re-boot 15x a day.
That said, this frequently makes posting a pain and esp editing and removing entries no longer valid as that work requires the use of Java.
Just wanted to say I have no grudge or personal problem with the BFC or any posters there but dont feel this should limit my personal view and criticism to mere mumbling and grumbling at the keyboard and montitor: I have spoken my mind. I am glad the BFC realizes that our feelings are mutual.
Thank you for your consideration poster RYP and I am sorry for the initial misunderstanding miscommunication comedy of errors that precipitated my small little inconsolable : "rant'. Of which by now is a mystery to many by now anyway so sorry I have not had time energy effort left to align my blog with what has taken place.
THanks for reading and visiting and I suspect entries will not match the high standard to which I currnelty aspire until I can buy myself a new computer.
Bestest regards to all my enemies old and new at The Black Flag Cafe
Its been a slice as well as an education.
Sincerely
Mach aka Machiz or Max
