Comment on Scientifically Inclined: Scratching the surface of pleasure by Top 3 Science Links: The “Itch” Factor Edition | Salamander Hours

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 15:58:19 +0000

[...] Winter in Canada can mean, in no particular order, snow, cold temperatures and hot drinks. For many of us, winter also means dry skin. In this Week’s Ontarion, I covered a story about scientists who were trying to determine if the subsequent feeling of itchiness one can get from dry skin varies is more pronounced depending on the location of the itch on the body. They also looked at whether the pleasurability of scratching said itch also varied depending on the site of the itch. What they found was that the relationship between the pleasure one gets from scratching and the level of itchiness of a certain area is not always a direct one. Read my article to find out more!

Comment on Frustrated with the new bus system? by P

Sat, 28 Jan 2012 23:12:46 +0000

I just spent over FOUR hours on this new service. I went from downtown to the mall to buy laundry soap, then to the UC, then had to walk to my home near MacDonald Centre for the Arts. I missed every connection. I got home freezing, disheveled, hungry (low blood sugar), and irritated. This system is awful. I am so happy that this is my last semester and I can leave this awful town once and for all in 2 months. IT SHOULD NOT TAKE FOUR HOURS TO BUY LAUNDRY SOAP!!!!!!

Comment on Scientifically Inclined: Men with lower pitched voices are less fertile by Top 3 Science Links: The Low Frequency Fertility Edition | Salamander Hours

Top 3 Science Links: The Low Frequency Fertility Edition | Salamander Hours — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 15:34:50 +0000

[...] For the longest time, it was thought that this preference might have developed as an indicator of mate quality, meaning that the “sexier” your voice was, the better mate you’d make. A new study challenges this idea. Australian scientists have determined that men with high-pitched voices have more concentrated sperm than men with low-pitched voices, meaning that a tenor is more fertile than a bass.

Comment on A closer look at the new Guelph transit by Susan MacPhail

It is hard to use the Go Schedule for University of Guelph. Why would anyone look at Kitchener when they want to go to the University of Guelph? Please make a note on the Guelph Aberfoyle schedule that Kitchener Go is used for University of Guelph.

Comment on The Canadian Wheat Board debate by Rene Moreau

Rene Moreau — Sun, 25 Dec 2011 17:20:03 +0000

FYI to all——
From Rene Moreau (416-489-8347)
re; Canadian Wheat Board
When corporations are gaining control of our world, and the media are told to stay quiet on the subject, and they DO—, We have a problem, right?
When our guardian angels hand us examples of why we must NEVER, EVER, let THEM rule the world, some examples being Goldman Sachs who almost brought down the world governance, (financially, and might yet do it, being involved in Greece and Italy) and even said they were doing God’s work, money-wise, by showing us the idiocy of letting them run things, and Italy that now has a corporate-run government, instead of elected government, it’s time to wake up, right?
Now they, the corporate world, would exert their power to control the world’s food supplies, through Cargill, Archer-Daniels Midland, Brunge and Monsanto, by getting rid of, or neutering the CWB, THROUGH THEIR INFILTRAITORS, AND HANDLERS IN THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT, and the resistance is minimal?
We know now, that corporations hold no citizenship, can’t be charged with treason, have the rights and privileges of human beings, but no responsibilities, except those mandated by government, which is not happening much lately, and they treat regulation and taxes as the enemy since they get in the way of their god, the bottom line!
Time to wake up, eh?
