Yes, Hotz Environmental had their share of "little devils" running around and that meant another new beginning for me with another company. Spring seems to be looking brighter, I look forward to what the new equinox brings. I've had to say goodbye to my cat Emilly who I have had for all of her fifteen years, but I look forward to many more years of joy with my new kitten Eden.

The Cross spread is used to plot the arc of your life and the forces acting on it. It is the most popular spread, giving a very complete view of the situation. Ice Runes are most commonly used for questions about struggle, conflict, and achievement.
The left rune represents an important element of the past. Ken is the rune of light and knowledge, driving away darkness and ignorance and revealing hidden truth. This rune also brings forth images of friendship and comfort. Ken is the light of inspiration, the light of imagination, and a beacon in the darkest hours.
The middle rune represents a deciding element of the present. Ehwaz is representative of the eight-legged horse ridden by the god Odin. As such, this is the rune of controlled movement and travel, including the pursuit of an objective or station in life. Since some older sources show Odin not as a man riding a horse but as a centaur-like being, this rune can also represent the union of man and nature, or the fusion of two entities in perfect harmony. As this rune is reversed, this could bode poorly for travel or for the vehicle involved. In the more spiritual sense, this rune could represent difficulties in self-improvement or other attempts at advancement. Finally, it may represent a splitting of two or the inability of two to act as one.
The top rune represents a force that works for you. Thurisaz represents a thorn, the most basic of barriers to our boon or our bane. In the case of hedges, thorns protect our encampments from that which skulks towards us from the outlands. In the case of rosebushes, thorns keep us from beauty. Though thorns are passive and have no thoughts, they puncture, tear, and may even be poisonous. Hence, this rune may also represent irrational violence and anger.
The bottom Rune represents a force that works against you. Dagez means daylight, and represents divine light. This rune generally refers to dawn (the initial sparking of energy) or to midday (the climax of energy). Both dawn and midday are symbolic of change, but unlike the changes in the perpetual circle of the year which are slow and subtle, the changes over a day are much faster and more dramatic. The breaking of a new day is symbolic of the rapid illumination of dismal circumstances, and is suggestive of Satori. Be careful - although this rune generally suggests a positive change, the symbology of a peaking point suggests that there must be a change downward as well. Fortunately for some, this rune is cyclic and irreversible, and so permanence is not promised - the only thing you can be sure of is an exciting ride.
The right rune represents the critical element of the future, at the core of the final outcome. Laguz is the rune representing water. Laguz is a strongly feminine rune, and like the ocean contains much power of an uncontrollable nature. Here the rune is seen in the reversed, symbolic of the ebbing tide. This may suggest power being drawn away, or may perhaps the start of a journey. Since this is a rune of sexual power, the reversal can also suggest sexual problems or dissatisfaction.
"He was a committed warrior, a leader through and through," said Lt.-Col. Dave Corbould, commander of the battle group. "He was someone we can all emulate. He represented the warrior spirit, 100%."

Sgt. Jason Boyes, the 81st Canadian soldier to die in Afghanistan, was remembered Monday as a committed warrior and a respected and admired leader. The 32-year-old native of Napanee, Ont., died Sunday evening while on a joint Afghan-Canadian foot patrol in the Panjwaii district of Kandahar province, 35 kilometres southwest of the provincial capital. He was only a few weeks into a six-month tour of duty in Afghanistan with the 2nd Battalion Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, based in Shilo, Man. Sgt. Boyes, died when he walked over a buried explosive device during a foot patrol after nightfall.

A 22-year-old Canadian soldier was found dead in Afghanistan on Tuesday, but a top military commander said the death was not related to combat. Jérémie Ouellet was found at 2:15 p.m. local time in the sleeping quarters at Kandahar airfield, the main NATO military base in southern Afghanistan. Ouellet was from Matane, Que., and served with the 1st Regiment Royal Canadian Horse Artillery, which is based in Shilo, Man. Ouellet is the 80th Canadian soldier to die in Afghanistan since the mission began in 2002.
In related news, Canada expects its NATO allies will soon offer 1,000 more soldiers to support the Canadian contingent in Afghanistan, Defence Minister Peter MacKay said on Sunday. Troops from Canada, Britain, the Netherlands and the United States have borne the brunt of the fight against the Taliban, but MacKay has been pressuring other NATO countries to provide more support and continued his efforts at a NATO summit in Brussels on the weekend.
In addition to at least 1,000 extra troops, Canada is looking for equipment including helicopters and unmanned surveillance aircraft. Last week, the House of Commons voted to extend Canada's 2,500-troop mission in Kandahar province until 2011, as long as NATO sends more troops and equipment to help Canadian troops
"I have fought the good fight, I have stayed the course, I have kept the faith," Major James Short, the Joint Task Force Afghanistan chaplain, said during prayers before Hayakaze's body was returned to Canada in a C-130 Hercules.

March 2 - Trooper Michael Yuki Hayakaze, died Sunday when the vehicle he was in struck an improvised explosive device on a road about 45 kilometres west of the Canadian base in Kandahar. He was part of a convoy bringing supplies forward to an Afghan army unit working with the Canadians.
The 25-year-old trooper from the Edmonton-based Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) was scheduled to return to Canada in a few days with the last of his unit, which will soon complete its tour of duty in Afghanistan.
Hayakaze was the 79th Canadian soldier to die fighting the Taliban and al-Qaida in Afghanistan since the first troops arrived early in 2002.
Jeff Healey of Toronto died Sunday of cancer. He was 41. Healey was considered a prodigy and earned numerous Juno and Grammy nominations in the course of his career.
He lost both his eyes to cancer before he was eight-months-old, but never let that slow him down. What makes Jeff Healey different from other blues-rockers is also what keeps some listeners from accepting him as anything other than a novelty -- the fact that the blind guitarist plays his Fender Stratocaster on his lap, not standing up. With the guitar in his lap, Healey was head and shoulders above his competition.
By the time he was a teenager, Healey had formed a four-piece band called the Blue Direction and was playing in clubs throughout the Toronto area. His best known work came when he formed the Jeff Healey Band several years later with bassist Joe Rockman and drummer Tom Stephen. His career took off when he appeared in the movie Road House, which starred Patrick Swayze.
In 1988, his Grammy-nominated album See the Light included the major hit single, Angel Eyes. In 1990, he earned the Juno for entertainer of the year. Healey became an internationally-known star who played with musical greats that included B.B. King and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Always remembered, in tribute here is my favourite Jeff Healey song, aptly, "While my guitar gently weeps"
Hamilton tax payers are set to be legally "fleeced" or in this case "clowned" to the tune of $1.8 million. That's right folks, the corporate mafia rolled over city council recently leaving them covered in tar and powdered sugar. Large welts left by floppy shoes where also visible. Their lawyers had no comment. If you see any of the culprits, immediately halt all contact with them.
Funny aside, the already dry city coffers are about to get even drier. All because some of the cities largest corporations haven't picked up a paper in forty years and realized a portion of the Red Hill Expressway was set to be built in their neck of the woods.
Council has voted to pay out nearly $1.8 million to a number of businesses who claim they suffered damages from road closures associated with the construction of the Lincoln Alexander Parkway. The cost of the legal settlement with the McDonald’s hamburger chain and other businesses apparently isn’t covered by expressway reserves.
According to the resolution approved at Tuesday's council meeting, $1,795,000 will be paid out to “Arrowline Gas Ltd, MCGW Properties Corporation and Q Lube Ontario Inc, McDonald’s Restaurants of Canada Limited, Vinnefield Trading Inc, Avondale Stores Limited, Donut Diners Inc and 1136075 Ontario Limited” to resolve claims “arising from the closure of Limeridge Road East at Upper Wentworth”.
The money will come out of the expressway accounts. But under questioning from downtown councillor Bob Bratina, the head of public works, Scott Stewart, said the account “doesn’t have that sort of money in it now.”
Council decided to payout instead of fighting it because, according to councillor Lloyd Ferguson,
“Our legal counsel and outside counsel advised us that if we lose, it will cost us in the order for $4.5 or $5 million, and if they win it will cost us a $1 million. The million dollars is professional fees to walk us through the litigation process because we’re up against a corporate giant like McDonald’s who will take it through to the Supreme Court, and courts have demonstrated in the past that when it involves a government agency like the City of Hamilton, they will not assign our costs if we win.”
I agree with Chad Collins who challenged the claims of the businesses, said he was “sickened” by the payment and asked if the city’s policy of not doing business with people who sue it could be applied to them.
“For us to be compensating someone who knowingly knew what the municipalities plans were as it related to the expressway, I think is wrong,” he declared, asking that staff report to a future meeting what steps might be taken to exclude the businesses from city contracts."
I watched the debate on Cable 14 last Tuesday night and it sickened me to watch how much these corporate vultures can get away with. Thanks to hamiltoncatch.org for the minutes of the meeting.

"I will not apologize"
It is surprising that supposedly intelligent people can make such asinine statement. Councillor Terry Whitehead drew gasps around Hamilton this week when he accused Joanna Chapman of not being objective in her role as a member of the integrity and transparency subcommittee. Chapman was not present in the gallery at the time.
The heated exchange started when Brad Clark objected to comments Whitehead made Wednesday morning. Clark said it’s highly inappropriate to criticize citizen volunteers who are giving up their time to help the city develop an integrity commissioner proposal. Whitehead shot back, naming Chapman as the person he doesn’t think is objective. Councillor Bob Bratina asked Whitehead to apologize. He refused, arguing he has a right to an opinion. Eisenberger again stopped Whitehead, explaining he was out of order. Chapman, who pursued charges against former mayor Larry Di Ianni for violating election was once again cheap shotted by a public official because they don't like the idea of a private citizen taking charge and voicing their given right to an intelligent opinion.
Whitehead and his supporters have been accused of trying to derail the integrity commissioner proposal. He denies the allegations, arguing he’s only trying to fight for the best model for taxpayers. The only thing he's fighting for is the continuance of "cronyism" at city hall. A regime that Mr. Whitehead vainly defends against crusaders like Joanna Chapman who only wish to hold the Mayor to his word and bring transparency back to this city.
You are errornous Mr. Whitehead when you claim this was not your election promise. You represent your constituents and it is your job to bring their wishes to the council floor. The people of Hamilton spoke loud and clear in the last election, they want transparency. Your petty wishes do not circumvent the wishes of the masses, sir. It is your duty to provide those, who's tax dollars provide you with a rather healthy living, their just desserts.
The proper resolution to this matter would be for Councillor Whitehead to be a man and offer an apology to Joanna Chapman.

"ONE spake amid the nations,‘Let us cease
From darkening with strife the fair World’s
light,
We who are great in war be great in peace.
No longer let us plead the cause by might.’
But from a million British graves took birth
A silent voice--the million spake as one--
‘If ye have righted all the wrongs of earth,
Lay by the sword! Its work and ours is
done.’-Poem entitled, "DISARMAMENT" by Canadian poet-John McCrae, more famous for his poem-IN FLANDERS FIELDS"

Trooper Richard Renaud-Died January 15 after the Coyote armoured reconnaissance vehicle he was riding in was struck by a roadside bomb. Renaud had been part of a routine patrol in the Arghandab district of Kandahar province, about 10 kilometres north of the city of Kandahar, when the blast occurred. The 26-year-old from Alma, north of Quebec City, was a member of the Valcartier-based 12e Régiment blindé du Canada, informally translated as the 12th Canadian Armoured Regiment. To date, 77 Canadian soldiers and one diplomat have been killed in Afghanistan since the mission began in 2002.
"With the New Year having just begun, this new tragedy reminds us of the perilous conditions our soldiers are facing in Afghanistan. I salute their merit, their hard work and all the sacrifices they made so fearlessly. On behalf of all Canadians, I would like to tell their families and friends, who are grieving today, that they will not be forgotten."- Gov. Gen. Michaelle Jean.

The military said they were travelling on dirt tracks, and rain in recent days had made the terrain very difficult. The two fatalities bring the number of Canadian military personnel killed in Afghanistan to 76.

What does the Winter have in store for me?
The Cross spread is used to plot the arc of your life and the forces acting on it. It is the most popular spread, giving a very complete view of the situation. Ice Runes are most commonly used for questions about struggle, conflict, and achievement.
The left rune represents an important element of the past. Ger is one of the runes that touches on the cycles of the year, in this case the fall harvest. These cycles are eternal, which is represented in the rune by the fact that it is unchanged by reversal. Ger can represent pregnancy or other forms of fruitfulness, and is especially indicative of the cycles of providence and karma - that which has been sown is now being reaped. This rune can also represent the cycles of wealth, for crops were frequently a sign of wealth.
The middle rune represents a deciding element of the present. Tyr was the Norse god of war. It was through his sacrifice that the great force of chaos, the wolf Fenrir was bound. Here however, you have drawn the rune reversed. This could mean that a sacrifice made will not lead to the desired result. It could also mean a loss, or a victory overturned. This rune warns against entering into conflicts or negotiations, especially ones requiring that an offering or concession be made - the wolf might take your hand and yet remain unbound. Note also that Tyr was the god of law, so there is a suggestion of a wrongdoer who will avoid justice.
The top rune represents a force that works for you. Wunjo is the rune of joy. The reversal of this rune suggests that joy is withheld. Since joy is frequently communal, this rune often suggests loneliness. Alternatively, some have seen Wunjo as the rune of perfection and the rune of the gods. Therefore this rune reversed could signal a feeling of separation from one's deity, or as imperfection in an important work.
The bottom Rune represents a force that works against you. Inguz is the rune of completion and fertility. The presence of this rune suggests that tasks which have been initiated will come to fruition. This rune is associated with Ing and Frey, it is this connection that explains its connotations of both fertility and sexuality. The variant of this rune shown here is reminiscent of the twin strands of life, and of the challenge and rewards of bringing together things complimentary.
The right rune represents the critical element of the future, at the core of the final outcome. Dagez means daylight, and represents divine light. This rune generally refers to dawn (the initial sparking of energy) or to midday (the climax of energy). Both dawn and midday are symbolic of change, but unlike the changes in the perpetual circle of the year which are slow and subtle, the changes over a day are much faster and more dramatic. The breaking of a new day is symbolic of the rapid illumination of dismal circumstances, and is suggestive of Satori. Be careful - although this rune generally suggests a positive change, the symbology of a peaking point suggests that there must be a change downward as well. Fortunately for some, this rune is cyclic and irreversible, and so permanence is not promised - the only thing you can be sure of is an exciting ride.
