A great love was reunited last night, and that is the love of my parents Hilda and Esher Ritchie. Our Mom passed away about 7:30 last night, peacefully in the company of her family, but oddly that is not the focus of this post. I would like to focus on the truly undying love that our parents had for each other. 

Much has already been written about my…

It’s often a pain to get a book published when it’s by a first-time author. With nepotism, elitism and favouritism ruling rampant in the publishing houses, new authors are often at a loss after being casually dismissed and shunted out on their faces by snooty publishers. Considering the bleak state of affairs, more and more amateur authors are seeking the service of eBook publishers online. E-publishers give out good promises about publishing and distributing the books for a certain amount…

A couple of weekends ago, I posted this picture on Facebook with the caption “Kaitlin gets her 14 foot canoe”. I thought that post warranted a bit of an explanation so this is that post.

This story starts in the late summer in 1986. Even though Loreen was 8 months pregnant, we decided to take a family trip with my Mom and Dad and Loreen’s mom Jackie. We visited and…

This year, I was one of around 30 participants (aged 19-29) accepted into the Theatre Entrepreneur's Networking and Training (TENT) Program as part of the Toronto Fringe Festival. My acceptance arrived at a time when I really needed it - after a long chain of auditions that really didn't bode so well for me. This program would give me something to be proud of! I would learn and network and become a PRO! And while I simultaneously walked away from the week very proud of…

The first-ever national grandparenting conference entitled "Legacy Grandaprenting Summit" will be coming to Frisco this fall.

Now, I am not a grandparent ... yet, but, with four boys (the oldest starts university this fall), I am certain that before long, I will get to bounce a little angel on my knees.

So, for those of us that already have that bundle of joy to play with (and hand over to mommy when diapers need changing), this is a fantastic opportunity to share, learn and…

Whenever we are in run or on the go to keep, we have a tendency to secure ourselves away from house. This is the one question that pops in your mind. In that hard time we discover ourselves alone. We're the most effective organization that provides customer with companies they need. Our major intention is to offer most useful services. Locksmith in Tacoma is there to remove all tensions. By providing us a call, our specialist team should come to unlock the door of one's house. We know energy…

Last month I was slated to attend the annual general meeting of the World Travel & Tourism Council...an organization dedicated to supporting the ongoing success of our industry.

The event was held in Dallas, Texas. As it was a three day meeting that ended on the weekend, I thought it wise to take advantage of being over on that side of…

This is an excellent review of this chronic and drastic problem.

Foreign currency trading is probably one of the most sure-fire methods to generate income nowadays. The system of Futures trading within the share market has been a pioneer in the class of earning swift currency by predicting trends and movements. And today it has the forex or currency exchange market for company. Now, there’s a reminder in the beginning: It’s probable that one might stand to lose just as much as they stand to gain out there, and…

Late last year, after completing, launching and promoting Mileage 51’s “Stone Unturned” CD, I thought about setting new musical goals for 2016. The first was completing my next CD project with Monks on the Moon “When Worlds Collide” which has just wrapped recording and is in post (editing/mixing..more on that in a future post). The other goal was satisfying a long-time desire to do serious live gigs in good venues.

For the purposes of this blog I want to focus on the latter. First I…

It is but a very common fact that the real estate market is very unstable as well as erratic. To come up with a solution, Property at wholesale, the company that was founded in the late 90’s has been very instrumental. The company was created with the reason of uniting people those to tend to have an intension to invest in real estate and properties. With the passage of time, Property at wholesale has become a giant in the market where it has been an advantage to the buyers as…

Music plays an important role in bringing up fond memories of the past. It’s a way to milestone our lives…at least I have always believed that to be the case. Just for fun I thought it would be interesting to create a short list of favourite 70s tunes and link them to memories from my younger days.

Just thought I would pass on a lyrical quote from my favorite artist:

“You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us. And the world will live as one.”

Economic calendars are used by forex traders to keep track of, and predict events that have the power to impact the rise or fall of stocks and shares in the market. Some of the things that are most commonly tracked in an economic calendar are monetary policy announcements by the Government of a country, or the Gross Domestic Product calculation. There are plenty others, a few of which are listed below:
