"How do you have enough money to build a building like that, and not enough money to last more than a year?"

You borrow it from the Government.

I was able to use this with Alfred a while back but I'm having a hard time building it with mountain lion. Has something changed in ML to keep this from working?

Thanks for your comments Rita! I am looking for most current/recent information and I would so appreciate suggestions as I am in process of purchasing first mac book. I am looking for a small business (Canadian) accounting software program and want to make it as simple as possible to transition from only ever using a PC. I have also invested in an iPad and want to utilize both within my practice. As this is a complete new set up for business, I don't anticipate dealing with importing of info (which sounds as though it gives the most headaches)! Suggestions / comments appreciated.

I'm surprised and not at all surprised.

How do you have enough money to build a building like that, and not enough money to last more than a year?

I'd be able to laugh at the fools who put money into this if it weren't for government involvement (our money) and the contractors and staff that lose out.

I feel like a disgruntled commenter on theguardian.pe.ca.

I read The Institute of Man and Resources: An Environmental Fable earlier this year and was captivated by the progressive thinking that heralded that movement. I was equally ashamed at the political infighting that derailed the project in the long-term.

One has to wonder if visionaries like Andy still exist on PEI and if they are able to operate in the sphere of influence that would surpass the change that he effected.

Cool Peter, turning local youth into makers!

Pedro | Friday, October 26, 2012 - 12:48pm

Sometimes your posts make me want to move to PEI :D and in this case be back at school again ;)
And regarding your last sentence I'm sure they loved it so better pack up the missing or running bits for I'm sure they'll come back as soon as they run out of prints ;)

There are 72 points in an inche and 72 picas in a foot. This is where I lost them.

Ritchie Simpson | Thursday, October 25, 2012 - 9:07am

"inches"? "centimeters? What happened to "points", "ems" and "picas"?

Oliver | Wednesday, October 24, 2012 - 5:46pm

"there's" not "they're" I mean

Oliver | Wednesday, October 24, 2012 - 5:45pm

So cool. You know they're an optical illusion that makes an impression or carving look like it's embossed or in relief--or makes your perception of the thing flip back and forth. Do you get any of that when you see it on angle?

Oliver | Wednesday, October 24, 2012 - 5:22pm

Neat.

Tai chi is award worthy,

For the record, here's an excerpt of a press release from the Architects' Association:

"Bergmark Guimond Hammarlund Jones Architects, in collaboration with Mackay-Lyons Sweetapple of Halifax, have won the 2012 Lieutenant Governor’s Award of Excellence in Architecture for their design of the UPEI School of Nursing Building. Honourable mention also went to Aaron Stavert of Open Practice Inc. – Collaborative Architecture for a private home design at 58 Upper Hillsborough Street."

I have used AccountEdge for a bookkeeping customer of mine who uses all Mac. We went through several versions, old Mac with old version of MYOB, then moved to newer Mac and finally the new MacBook Air with latest version (I think) of AccountEdge and it all worked really well.

Your Virgin honeymoon is over, but it was better than a good Rogering.

Pedro | Saturday, October 13, 2012 - 3:09am

Peter, it looks so great that I'm really not sure if ink would add any extra value. It looks stylish, yet simple, clean, yet rich. Very discrete and yet a bold design statement. I really like it, but I might be biased, I love embossed paper ;)

I got Wii as well but cant find any info on how to set-it up so I can watch US netflix here in Canada. Mind sharing how you did that on your Wii?

Regards,

I saw it open and went in for a look last night. I love it! It was not the chorizo I was looking at. It was the beautiful gelati, the Genoa and sopressata salami, the grana padano and paremsan, the barbeque chickens, the fresh ricotta, the beautiful artisan breads, sweets and chocolate. Being next to the olive oil store makes it even more attractive. I hope there are people here to support this store and cafe. It is unique to the Island and the best thing about it is it will not be seasonal. It is real food downtown!

It had me at crème fraîche.

I will be doing my part to make sure it does not go out of business, and I like to think Charlottetown can support what they are aiming for, becuase otherwise, no crème fraîche.

And of course, produce, meat and fish without a car downtown is a huge improvement.
