Hey, you seem very knowledgeable. Would this be a good test kit?

Also, I moved into a new house last fall. The grass in the front yard has some bald spots that I would like to try and remedy. When is the best time to hit this with fresh soil and grass seed? When is the best time to fertilize? Also, how to you pick which grass seed to buy? Thanks for any help with this.

Well; honestly; good luck.

Powerpivot / Power BI is a pretty new thing; it's undergone so much change in the last 2-3 years; I strongly doubt you'll find much as far as decent resources.

For Access:
http://www.crwsystems.mb.ca/ MIGHT be willing to recommend someone;

Red river teaches courses: http://me.rrc.mb.ca/catalogue/Course.aspx?RegionCode=PC&ProgCode=COMTP-NA&CourseCode=COMP-9048

If you honestly expect you can learn Access in an hour; just grab a decent book on whatever version you are stuck using; and go from there:

Another thing to consider is how to cope in an existing job or career, instead of looking for another one. It's not always possible, but sometimes you can alter yourself or your job to make things better.

The book So Good They Can't Ignore You has some good insights, but is long-winded about them. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/1455509124/

I haven't gone to U of M in two years so I'm not 100% sure but when I went there first years registered pretty much right away. After that your registration date was based on your GPA, all classes are first come first serve generally so your registration date determines if you'll get in.

This is the book RRC uses for their medical terminology, it's a good book I liked it and actually read it!

If you're interested in retro Winnipeg pics, there's a great book called 'The North End' by John Paskievich. All the photos are from the mid-70s to mid-90s.

My husband & I (ex-pats) love to look through it and try to identify the locations.

If anyone is interested in getting help for insomnia, this book really helped me. It guides you through all the steps of cognitive behaviour therapy to improve your sleep quality:

If it tastes bad I generally don't do it haha. Cryptozoology is a pretty interesting subject I think you might like as well! Sadly when it comes to the subject of ghosts and ufos you get many many crazy people who bring down the image of the subject to tinfoil hats- cryptozoology has less of those people
I found.


A great author that doesn't wear a tinfoil hat that writes about ufos Chris Rutkowski- last time I checked he worked at the UofM (he is from Winnipeg)


This was my favourite book from him: https://www.amazon.ca/Big-Book-UFOs-Chris-Rutkowski/dp/1554887607




He believes 99% of UFO sightings can be explained by something normal (and they can) but the other 1% he is curious about. Out of all the authors I read he is the most down to earth.

Found some links for it. A guy from work just bought it, definitely going to check it out. :)

There are already some really good ideas on this list.

For some MB heritage stuff check out:

• The forks
  
• Saint Boniface Cathedral (and Louis Riel's grave)
  
• Fort Gibraltar
  
• Lower Fort Garry
  
• Pioneer days - Steinbach, make sure you get there for breakfast of waffles and sauce as well as lunch/dinner of perogies, borscht and farmer sausage
  
  You may want to look into Bartley Kives' book Daytrippers guide to Manitoba. (http://www.amazon.ca/Daytrippers-Guide-Manitoba-Exploring-Undiscovered/dp/1926531019)

Lol what? I don't think you understand this issue, nor do I have time/desire to explain it. If you're interested, educate yourself by reading this first:

Dale Barbour's book Winnipeg Beach - Leisure and Courtship in a Resort Town, 1900-1967 is a good read.

Mentioned and shown in the MHS page. I’ll have to check the site out some time. The chapter in Gordon Goldsborough’s book is good, too.

this is a good one. there's a newer version apparently, but doubt much has changed... check other sites for a better price, or maybe the library...

More like the deliberate and criminal underfunding, neglect, abuse and starvation of the generations of kids forced to attend these institutions. All in the hopes of converting them to Christianity, while degrading or destroying their languages, cultures, and family bonds.

Education, nutrition, and vocational training were the lowest priorities in most of these cheaply built, ramshackle schools where disease spread quickly and where the kids had to spend a majority of their time farming in order to supplement the inhumane lack of supplies they had to live with.
