Mare Rye Age,  Marriage, even Matrimony, no not the cruel treatment of small fabric floor coverings resulting in yowls, but the number one cause of divorce (Hehe). In all it's pomp, tradition, and glory, the agreement to commit the duration of one's life to another. Yup it's a biggie, so make sure you have a good party. The show starts with a divorce song just to level right down to below zero, but the rest will build you up, guaranteed ;) Congratulations to all you lovers out there who decided its worth the risk and everyone who'd just love to be loved, don't forget to step out into the light, and of course if you don't believe in marriage way to think outside the box by golly.

Ether in The Attic - Episode #128: Rad Relativity - 20160620

The relativity, in our city will obsess us to to a fault, our own hang ups, until we're wrapped around a telephone cord or our own shoelaces. Horrendous lobsters masquerade as honest practice and law abiding habits. We wish to extrapolate the gumption from proper footwear, but we won't until we realize that we can do without feet.

Two new building added to the city green power grid

IMG_0123.jpg

The city of Prince George is adding two new buildings to its Downtown Renewable System (DRES), Plaza 400 and Prince George Law Courts. The system is powered by Lakeland Mills wood waste that is a by-product of the production of wood materials. The city already powers numerous buildings with this kind of power including the new RCMP detachment and City Hall. The system heats water and pumps that to the buildings which then us it for heat and water. Construction is expected to begin last week of July and be completed by early fall. The carbon reduction is estimated to be about 1,820 tones per year. The reductions is the same as 350 cars taken of the road per year, roughly. This project is added to the many green energy projects in the community including the Bio Energy Plant at UNBC.

Project is estimated at $450,000 and is being fully funded by the Ministry of Transportation. The city will install the piping system to the buildings at a cost of $200,000. The project was started due to the fact that both buildings needed their boilers replaced.

Pride Walk built in Prince George

IMG_0105-e1465931405865.jpg

The Prince George Pride walk was built today near the Days Inn. The walk was unanimously voted in favour at city council. Prince George Pride Society pushed to get the walk built in the community. This is added to the pride flag which is being flown at city hall. The pride parade, which is taking place on July 9th, will certainly be highlighting the new cross walk. Feelings of how the city has changed over the years could be heard while the paint was being mixed. Composed of rock and reflective materials the paint is expected to last longer than traditional cross walk paint even in the winters of Prince George.

The walk was built days after a massive shooting at a gay club in Orlando, Florida which claimed the lives of 49 people and injured over 50. Outpouring of support has been happening all across North America, a vigil was held on Monday May 13 to show support for the victims and their families of the shooting.
