Murderer for hire

Not sure what kind of meat they serve at this restaurant, but they sure are specific about the type of employees they are looking for.

N&L Premier urges: Vote Anything But Conservative

Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Danny Williams made his "ABC," or Anything But Conservative, campaign official on Tuesday by registering his crusade against Stephen Harper's Conservatives with Elections Canada and obtaining "third party" status.

It's just the latest move by Williams, a Progressive Conservative, to ramp up his fight to prevent the re-election of Stephen Harper in the Oct. 14 federal election.

Williams has waged a war of words with Harper ever since the leader reneged on a 2006 election promise to exclude non-renewable energy sources from the equalization formula.

One World, One Dream

From September 6th to September 17th, Beijing is once again hosting athletes from around the world.

Over 4,200 athletes - from six different disability groups - from 148 countries are taking part in the 2008 Summer Paralympic Games.

Not only are the sports divided into events, but the events are divided into different disability categories, to even out the playing field as much as possible.

The slogan for this years Paralympic Games is the same as the one for the Olympics held just last month: "One World, One Dream".

A virtual lawyer for small business owners

An online legal service is targeting small business owners who are flustered with filing paperwork but are reluctant to shell out the big bucks for legal help.
Corporation Centre
offers a host of services for small businesses in all provinces. Their business model is to try to undercut regular law firms for incorporating businesses, getting GST and provincial tax numbers, applying for trademarks, doing corporate filings and preparing documents to issue shares. The growth of services like this might be useful to small business owners without stockpiles of cash for legal help.
