Inkwo for When the Starving Return is one hell of a trip. The short film is a stop-motion animated extravaganza with strong visuals and a darn great soundscape that’ll make you think you’re watching a big studio film.  While it doesn’t come from a widely known culture, the Indigenous foreground is powerful enough for the story to rely on. Sure, it isn’t too friendly, but sometimes that’s the way some stories are meant to be told, regardless if they seem designed for small children. In the film, Dove is a young Indigenous warrior who realizes he has a mission. He…

In 2023, Def Leppard felt it was time to tell their story, in their words. ‘Definitely: The Official Story of Def Leppard’ is a personal account of Def Leppard from their formation all the way up to 2022’s last studio album ‘Diamond Star Halos’. The book was released in 2023 and there were several versions you could buy. By the time I got around to buying it and the only option available to me was the Publisher’s Edition which is strictly the book. There were other options you could’ve purchased as well. There was the Deluxe Copies which was Editions…

The Federal Open Market Committee announced on Wednesday it would hold its federal funds rate target at 4.25 to 4.5 percent, ending the three-meeting rate-cut streak that began in September 2024.

The Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index (PCEPI), which is the Federal Reserve’s preferred measure of inflation, grew at a continuously compounding annualized rate of 2.0…

THINKING OF SELLING YOUR HOUSE ON YOUR OWN?  A For Sale By Owner (FSBO) generally believes they will save money by selling their home themselves, instead of hiring a professional Listing Agent that will charge him a commission fee.  Unfortunately, this seller’s naivety about what an actual listing agent does is costing him both time AND money. I first posted a picture of this DIY Home Seller almost two years ago… in October of 2016.       Not surprisingly, this home is STILL for sale.  In a real estate market such as Toronto’s, that’s virtually unheard of.    …

Statement of the obvious – I am a hockey fanatic and obsessed equipment gearhead. I pinch myself that I get paid to be the marketing manager at ProStockHockey.com and my job is to obsess about all things hockey. Prior to this job, I was already obsessed about all things hockey but didn’t get paid to do it – huge bonus! So, like many other hockey players, I had a normal non-hockey day job and would feed my passion outside of my work. Part of my outlet was a Twitter (now “X”) account where I tracked and commented on the…
