Chen has done a good job of stopping the precipitous fall of RIM

It remains to be seen if he can climb them out of the hole they dug themselves in

Most annoying thing on all TV shows ever: Main characters boss isn't never open minded about ideas so theres more drama.
I agree, The Incompetent Boss is a pet peeve of mine. That was my main issue with 24. I am semi-binge watching House these days, and the first season could sometimes get annoying for the same reason.

I'm halfway through season 8 of Curb your Enthusiasm. I really hope Larry David gets around to making season 9!

Can't say I've really been following RIM, but if you have stock, a takeover from a lager company looking to leverage the business connections and market penetration could see the stock rise.

It absolutely could yes... but the last time the company went up for sale, no one wanted to buy them.

That is the Tavurvur eruption, yeah?

That was fairly big news around here. Locals in PNG are having a hell of a time - no big death counts, but all that ash is going to wreak havoc on a whole lot of sustainability farmers. Cities & towns completely evacuated. Lots of food aid coming.

Last time that volcano had a BIG eruption, it flattened a city under 2 meters of ash.

Where do you work

I'll just say for the Federal Government just in case other people around here work in the same place I do ;)

I was super pissed when I got the news but I also understand that I failed to do something very simple (make the letter 50-50 and, for the record, I'm a francophone)

Truth be told, I'm probably more angry at myself :laugh: :(

Hmm, not sure how they would have worded the merit criteria to have that screen you out unless you were really heavily slanted to one language. You should ask for your informal discussion if you haven't already, it's possible although not common to get back into the process if you plead your case. I've managed to get back into a pool because they screened me out on something that wasn't strictly speaking one of the merit criteria being evaluated.

Started watching Sons of Anarchy.



Very much enjoyed the first episode.

What's his name's fake accent just irritates the hell out of me. Is this what people from the rest of the world feel when they watch americans try to imitate eastern accents in movies?

Those 1-800-got-junk ads they play ALL THE TIME on the radio.....Are they meant to be that ingratiating and idiotic sounding? I mean they don't actually think they're good, right? It's gotta be on purpose.
