Wish Environment Canada would get their story straight. Forecast for today shows 30% probability of precipitation but the hourly forecast doesn't show any time periods with that probability. Looks nice out right now, at least.
 
@Jaebius I think it would work better as smaller loaves - will make it as 2 next time I try instead of 1 regular loaf. It worked better than some non-yeast bread recipes I've tried in the past that folks have shared with me.

@Mendalla wicked rain storm at 4:30 AM this morning - and there was no rain in the forecast but the sky looks like another storm is imminent.

The mole is gone! Farmer friend said it definitely was a dead mole - though based on where the mounds were and where the carcass was, he can't really understand how it got there. I gave him some cookies as a thank you.

congratuLAtionS beThanne on losing your mole
 
I started dealing with my apples and out of the first 10 lbs I was only able to save 8 apples as the rest were completely rotten. Thankfully, the next 5 lbs were better with only 3 rotten ones out of the whole pail. Hopefully that means the remaining 15 lbs are fine. Fingers crossed. Still no word on when or how I'm to see my papers this week.
 
Heard from Press guy and papers shipped today so I should get them Thurs...but courier delivery in Mirror is Mon/Wed/Fri so does that mean I won't get till Fri???? I have my fingers crossed they show up tomorrow!

i'm surprised that you're stiLl printing And diSTributing actual papers
 
Thus the eclectic MEME as a shocking incident involving thinking within an unseen medium ...

Some people reject these and thus the waste of the prodigal in some people ... lighter moving wisdom? Literary ... one has to get it in depth ... no skimming like some scholars of texts ... that' the nature of word ... profoundly layered ... stacked as that washer down on the shore ... flush?

Facetiae ... thus the temptation ... and a good set of ribs for bellowing ... or a delightful hiss ... Horatio?

Nope. You can still get a paper sub to the Globe & Mail. I have a digital only sub but there are paper subs available, too. The London Free Press and other Southern Ontario dailies, too.

What has happened is that "local" presses have largely gone away in favour of centralized printing. So the "London" Free Press might be printed in K-W or Hamilton and shipped down or something. And, of course, with most Canadian papers owned by conglomerates, there's a lot of content sharing. Fewer local writers, more content from national syndicated writers, esp. for things like film reviews.

the gLobe And mail waS always a no Thanks for me
 
And more and more newspapers have been closing or amalgamated in the past 2 weeks with the upheaval in the newspaper world so there will be even less local/smaller papers.

I mostly read online news, too. As I said, I have a digital sub for the Globe. My wife's Economist sub includes digital and print (weekly newsmagazine from the UK that's like 200 years old or something) and I read their daily digital "Economist Espresso" app using her account. They're stronger for international stories than North American sources tend to be. I get the NY Times Morning Briefing newsletter by email. And then just portals like MSN and Yahoo! (though I find those tend to slant more and more to less reliable, more biased sources, anymore).
