More News on the Toronto Bike Thief Story
Record-Setting Thief Steals 2,396 Bikes | WebEcoist
"Over ten thousand frustrated bicycle theft victims have perused Igor’s reclaimed collection of stolen goods but only a few hundred bycles have been returned. He is now facing dozens of counts relating to the thefts alone, but the story doesn’t end there: raids on Igor Kenk’s house and myriad storage places revealed crack, cocaine and pounds of marijuana … as well as a stolen bronze statue of a centaur and snake in the heat of battle. How that fits in is anyone’s guess."

Well, still not as creepy as the "Is that right, eh!" guy my friend had a date with. I think the guy who sits down beside them is creepier.

Meditation and Depression
How to Meditate
"When we are depressed, we will notice a powerful stream of negative thoughts. Often when we become depressed, we don’t feel like meditating, everything seems lacking in hope. However, if we can meditate effectively; if we can go beyond these negative thoughts and quieten the mind, we really can have a dramatic change in our frame of mind. This ability to silence the mind is invaluable as an aid to overcome unhappiness."

TheStar.com | GTA | Let workers strike, TTC says
I agree. Although they mention that the wages would rise significantly if the TTC were designated an essential service, they don't mention that fares would have to also be much higher.
Do you want to pay $4 to get on the TTC, with no significant improvement in service? No? Well, let them have the right to strike then.
