A Toronto tid bit
It seems that just about everything done in Toronto is special. That's easy to say given that I've spent virtually my whole life here, but the city just keeps proving itself over and over again. Few projects are poorly executed. Everyone involved in a major way in this city from the mayor to city planners to large businesses seem dedicated to not being satisfied with the mediocre.
I'm a little late in writing about this, but truth be told, I hadn't really seen the subject of this posting in the three years or so it's been in existence. I'm talking about BMO field--the home of the Toronto FC Major League soccer team.
Here are a few photos that I found impressive:
On one side of the stadium, the seats are colour-coordinated to display the symbol and flag of Canada, the maple leaf. The MLS soccer franchise also happens to be owned by Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, owners of the Toronto Maple Leafs NHL team. Downtown Toronto is in the background, dominated by the CN Tower, which for some 40 years until recently was the tallest building in the world.
On the opposite side of the stadium, the seats spell out "TORONTO".
Background is Lake Ontario and Toronto island.

...and go for a walk. You can read the rest of this when you get back.
Read on, if you insist, but make sure you go when you're through reading this.

Why are you still here? Hit the road, jack. And enjoy.

We know that vitamin D deficiency can lead to rickets. But a lack of vitamin D can also bring on less obvious ones to the naked eye:
- multiple sclerosis (MS)
- rheumatoid arthritis
- type 1 diabetes
- cancers
- dementia

Sarah Palin is a star
Somebody made the assertion on a message board that Sarah Palin is a star. I posted the following response:
Yes, a white dwarf star.
A white dwarf, also called a degenerate dwarf, is a small star composed mostly of degenerate matter. They are very dense
If you think I'm kidding, check out the Wiki article. The only thing missing is her name and address.
