same old Halifax school board

new school year, same old story. this week the Halifax school board fired a bus driver for breaking up a fight on the bus. typical disgraceful and disgusting behaviour by the HRSB. as usual trying to make history while instead just being on the wrong side of it.

I was hoping for change after the recent elections and the long overdue departure of Carole Olsen (good riddance). alas the bureaucracy is perpetual and it's the same old embarrassing story in Halifax. in my district the school board incumbent ran unopposed. you get the government you vote for

I don't even understand what she supposedly did wrong. there was a fight on the bus. she broke up the fight and sent one fighter to the front to separate the combatants. so what's even the problem. it's bizarre, Kafkaesque even by the standards of the modern education system

can someone explain to me the difference between Heather Vidito and Ken Fells. because if it's not about race then why was Vidito thrown under the bus?

anonymous sides with Hamas

So anonymous has joined Hamas in the attack on Israel. Way to keep it classy anon.

Oh dear, what is the Zionist entity going to do? so what's the next big PR win for the terrorists, the OWS endorsement?

Deep Sky by Patrick Lee

I recently read Deep Sky. This finishes up the Breach trilogy. It was ok. The author finishes very strong, tying the timelines back together very nicely. Fast paced, it had a bit of a Ludlum feel to it at times. I think the second and third books in the Breach series were a bit burdened with being the follow ups to The Breach which was just so great. Still there's lots of action, Breach entities, plot twists, and it does come together to complete the trilogy. I found myself missing the Whisper entity through this book and hoping it would make an appearance.

So that's ok finished up two multi part series now. Stay tuned for another announcement in that area.
