Rest in Peace, Mr. Christie
I still remember how he answered the phone, "hello! Dugald Christie here". I was shocked to read from the paper that Dugald has been killed on July 31, 2006 while cycling across Canada to promote Judicial reform.
Globe and mail link
About 5 years ago, I was introduced to Dugald and Richard Cotton to build http://www.accessjustice.ca/. It seemed just like yesterday when I was working with Dugald and visiting him at his tiny room at the affordable living house. At first I was thinking to myself, "What kind of lawyer with the right mind would live such frugal life?" Well Dugald did. He was determined to helped the unfairness of the judicial system, to help those who cannot afford help. His dedication for his passion will never been forgotten in my heart.
Rest in peace, Mr. Christie.

Accidentedly Sending email from Outlook 2003
This has happened to me TWICE in the past two days. I KNOW it will get me in trouble sooner or later and I'll get fired.
I was determined to find a way to disable this. With the power of google, I've found it here HERE
You'll need to create the following registry keys. (If the Office key doesn't exist, you'll need to create it and the subkeys.)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Disabl
edShortcutKeysCheckBoxes
String Value: CtrlEnter
Value Data: 13,8
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Word\DisabledS
hortcutKeysCheckBoxes
String Value: CtrlEnter
Value Data: 13,8
These are the keys for Outlook 2003, change the 11.0 to 10.0 for Outlook 2002, or to 9.0 for 2000.
Don't forget to restart Outlook for the changes to take effect.

I've always wanted this
Something that I've always wanted is to get an arcade version of Street Fighter II in my home. I will most likely buy this when we move into our first HOME.

Sad news

OUCH

I've just found that the shihtzu we found on saturday, has passed away at the SPCA sheltor the day after. This is extremely sad news to us, and I am furious about how irresponsible the owner is. No one has called to claim or inquire about this poor soul. Some people do not deserve to support another life.
