Lesley Choyce, Odds and Ends Favourite book when young Journey to The Centre of the Earth by Jules Verne. Favourite book now : unknown. Career : I avoided one. To busy myself, I write novels and autobiographical books, host a TV show, teach part time at a university, run a publishing company, surf, freelance TV and radio work, perform and record alternative music and raise spinach. My family and pets : 2 kids (12 and 18); a dog and bunch of pigeons and a budgie. I used to have a goat and a telepathic raven as well as a one-winged seagull. No kidding. Room where I write : Overlooking the ocean on a hillside at Lawrencetown Beach, Nova Scotia. What I do in my spare time : surf, hike, play electric guitar with heavy distortion, imagine, travel, imagine some more. As a kid I was : skinny, smart but not very cool, daydreamed a lot and made Tarzan swings, river rafts and tree forts. My first book : the publisher thought it wasn't all that good but I should be encouraged. It was a skinny little book of poetry called Reinventing the Wheel ten years in the making. Kind of immature but full of insight.

43. 60s Odds And Ends odds ends, Vol. After this album's release, these innocent American/canadian heartlandkids became rich LA rock stars and started snorting cocaine heavily http://starling.rinet.ru/music/temp/60sodds.html

This page covers acts that I'm not familiar with beyond an album or two, but have listened to enough times to review. The '60s certainly were a unique decade musically - like any other. The acts covered below are only the beginning more will be covered soon. And I've still got three more decades to go. The Jeff Beck Group: Beck-Ola (1969) *** Of the major '60s guitar gods, Jeff Beck ranks somewhere below Hendrix and Clapton in public acclaim, and unlike his peers, his music rarely gets airplay on classic rock radio, though at guitar wizardry he's as adept as either - he's got a lacerating razorblade tone to his work that's more cutting edge than Clapton and more tastefully concise Hendrix; and his sharp corrosive lightning switchblade style probably had more to do with the invention of heavy metal than either. Overshadowed by Led Zeppelin's debut, Beck had already been doing the same thing a year earlier on 1968's Truth The Bee Gees: The Bee Gees 1st (1967) *** I know, I know the image that comes to mind is a trio of slightly balding, sleazily insincere dorks with gold medallions and polyster open-chest shirts latin-hussling down the boulevard to a cheesy soundtrack for seventies swingles to make out and snort cocaine to. Admit it - The Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack And Now! (1966) **1/2

Odds and Ends Smart like me? Frank Stronach is 688 years Doo-Doo as I say, not as I do Gordie is a union man ... Europe opts for job creation Smart like me? Canada's highest-paid executive is Frank Stronach, head of the auto parts giant Magna International. He makes over $40 million a year from salaries, fees, stock options, benefits and bonuses. When quizzed about his stratospheric salary, Stronach replied, "Smart people don't come cheap." CALM Frank Stronach is 688 years old! Auto Parts magnate Frank Stronach has tried to justify his $43.2 million salary (the highest in the country) by saying he's smart, and he's worth it. He recently made the following claim: "If I added up all the hours I've spent working over the past 40 years, I probably haven't made much more than the minimum wage." Is this possible? Or is it just hyperbole? Let's do the math. At the highest minimum wage in Canada ($7 an hour, in British Columbia), it would take Stronach- even if he could work 24 hours a day, every day of the year - 688 years to earn $43.2 million! He doesn't look that old. To view it another way, if the Magna International CEO had worked every hour of every day for the last 40 years, his $43-million plus salary would amount to about $123.20 an hour.

Coffee break enshrined by Italian court Stressed out Inco, Falconbridge fined in deaths Overtime = More Injuries ... Staff at Prince Rupert decide to change teams Coffee break enshrined by Italian court Rome - Italian workers are apparently sighing in relief over a test case supporting their sacrosanct right to take a morning cappuccino break. Surveyor Maurizio Tomassini was suspended for doing what millions of working Italians do every day head over to the trattoria for a restorative coffee. A court in Perugia ruled that taking time off work for a morning cappuccino or espresso was now normal practice in the public sector. Workers can't be punished for taking a break unless they stay away too long. Harold Fiske Workplace News, May '96 Stressed out A British social worker has received a $360,000 settlement after suffering a nervous breakdown because of overwork. The settlement follows a High Court ruling which held that Northumberland County Council had been negligent in imposing "impossible workloads" on social worker John Walker and then repeatedly ignoring his requests for more staff.

About one-third of the complex is expected to survive and crash somewhere in the south Pacific Ocean. Most of the focus, of course, has been placed on the station's seven modules. Inside each is the legacy of 15 years of spaceflight old computers, spent experiments, the crews' personal effects, even garbage bags filled with refuse.

I am quirky, creative, funky and I love to laugh and crack jokes. Yet, I love to buy Jackie O classic pieces that can be mixed and matched with clean cuts and a bit of fitting but not too much in the wrong places. I would die of embarrassment if I ever looked like I stepped off the set of an hip-hop music video. Yuck. A navy blue power suit appeals to me over knit tops and tight skirts. See what I mean? Unconventional person dressing in a conservative manner. No wonder I tend to baffle employers and managers alike after they hire me.
