Hi, just wondering if you can share with me board and online games you like? I've used the below for playing scrabble in English and it's not bad: Eliot - An Open Source software for playing Scrabble

Have you been to Paris? I'm not French actually, am here for my postgrad study. Will be in Paris for the 2nd time but this time I really want to make use of it to really see Paris. What would you do if you were in Paris? Am in the middle of exams and am looking for some inspiration about what to...

Hiya, how is the financial industry in Canada recently by any chance with the credit crisis debacle? Is the job market in finance contracting? For those who work in finance, do you use headhunters' services and if you do, which ones would you recommend? Toro, US' is rather in a dodgy situation...

I must admit I'm a little tired to hear this myth heaps of people believe that Chinese-Indonesians control like 70%, 80%, or even 90% (take your pick!) of the economy in Indonesia. And the image of Chinese-Indonesians being cold-hearted and evil, because of a conduct of this tycoon who held...

I hope and guess you meant excerpt? I'm not a climate expert and didn't claim to be one ;-)

Global conspiracy theory? Juicy! Can be as simple as they don't care or are not freaking out yet. The below is website of what is called Tara Expedition to measure the rate of ice meltdown up north. Interesting stuff. An article written from the findings of this expedition, was saying that...

Is US the only country that has this kind of satellite?

Am wondering to hear perhaps from people who weren't born Canadian but became Canadian later. What I want to ask is whether the trend of companies in Canada is to grant working visa for non-Canadians they want to employ or the companies expect the non-Canadian potential employees to get Canadian...

I really hope this kind of thing will never happen in Canada... [B]

Was wondering what the reputation (say rank-wise, its strenghts, etc.) is like for HEC Business School in Montreal?

Apparently Skype has been crashed since yesterday which I did notice too when I was trying to contact some people abroad. Any other alternatives of reliable internet phone service out there by any chance?

Just read that The Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005 would mean people in Britain can now be detained without trial; even without being told the crime of which they are accused. This is the same implication in US too?

I am shocked to hear some news from an ex-colleague that another ex-colleague whom I expect the least to get married quickly is going to get married soon. I suppose a congrat is in order indeed, but it just bewilders me how she can get married sooner than other fantastic single women I know out...
