Edit to the previous post: got most of my marks from Jo-Anne, rather than the Registrar's Office. Still waiting on one, Legal and Governmental, though. I'm assuming I got an 80 in the course, which isn't an unreasonable assumption, given this:

So as I'd thought, Cobourg's only slated to get 30% of the population growth slated under the Places to Grow Plan. Said growth was rather miniscule (16 000 county-wide over thirty years), compared to the plans that Cobourg had (New Amherst/West Park Village, plus Development Area C - the east end, where my family lives - which combined would have ( Read more... )

Update to the last post...Would it be getting this much news if Lisa Nowak were male? My guess would be possibly, given the aforementioned NASA culture towards maintaining a wholesome hot dogs and apple pie American image. But not really to this extent ( Read more... )

I have a hockey-related question, most likely for dragondare but anyone is free to answer. Let's say someone gets a 2 minute instigator penalty, five for fighting, and a 10 minute game misconduct in the third period. How are they back on the ice for OT? Isn't a game misconduct an ejection ( Read more... )

I've been invited to two Super Bowl™ parties thus far - I might try for a bit of time at both. I was toying with the idea of having one myself...Thom assented to this one, provided the Pats lost (I reckon Brent would have had the same stipulation). I suppose I could have one, but that would embitter me, considering the Pats lost and all. Fuck ( Read more... )

So the passport saga continues. I've managed to get Brent's father to act as my guarantor, and wanted to have everything ready to send back to Toronto for next Friday. I figured I'd best get a new birth certificate, as mine was laminated at birth (like those of a lot of people my age). Technically, laminated birth certificates are void, though ( Read more... )

Okay, something's not right. I guess the four exams in four days wasn't actually as bad as I thought it would be, except oddly enough for the first exam (POLS-211. I got 73% in that course, making it my third-worst POLS mark (behind 70% in POLS-241 and 72% in POLS-250, the Course from Hell). However, that's counterbalanced by the 78% in POLS-446 ( Read more... )

Um...what the hell. Remember POLS-470? The class where I didn't speak all that much and the prof called me on it?

2006 F POLS 470 0.50 83 A TOPICS IN INTERNATIONAL POLSNot only did I do much better than expected, it's also the first time I've received a POLS mark above 80%. My average is just over 80% right now with two ( Read more... )

It's going to take a lot of willpower for me to go to POLS-470 tonight. Granted, the fact that I'm writing this from Mac-Corry and not from home says something. At any rate, two of my four end-of-term papers are now finished, totalling 18 out of 46-54 pages. Two papers left, -470 (16-24 pages, due next Wednesday) and POLS-338 (12 pages, due 8 ( Read more... )

Well, the exam schedule's up. It's simultaneously not as bad as I'd feared, and about as bad as I'd feared. It's good insofar as I've got no exams from 7-9 December (16-24 page paper due on 6 December, 10 page paper due on 8 December); first exam's on Wednesday the 13th. However, it's still bad insofar as I've got four exams in four days:
