FOX news reporting... is bullshit.... As always... I live about 5 miles from where the shooting took place. The ''Moroccan'' Citizen (guy has dual Canadian/Moroccan citizenship, actually) was among other muslims attending the prayer, that night. He was a witness to the shooting, and fled the scene as soon as he was able to. So when police force arrived at the scene (quite quickly, actually), they saw him fleeing, so they went after him, and arrested him, thinking he might be one of the attacker at the mosque, that night. He was released quickly, after it was demonstrated that he was actually a muslim praying there with other muslims. The attacker, Alexandre Bissonnette, is actually a white supremacist, a staunch Trump supporter, was also known to be a right wing supporter, and also propagating Marine Le Pen Front National ideology... Best receipe for disaster, if i might say.... http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/quebec-city-mosque-attack-alexandre-bissonnette-1.3958559 http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/quebec-city-mosque-alexandre-bissonnette-profile-1.3959581 http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/canadian-politics/trudeaus-pmo-takes-on-fox-news-over-a-fox-tweet-about-the-mosque-shooting http://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/1014200/attentat-quebec-trudeau-fox-news-kate-purchase-tweet-erreur-information-twitter-media

Happened in the Dolomites, yes.

We lost a great skydiver, Mario Richard. He died this morning, in Italy. Many will remember him for his involvement in the IMAX movie Adrenaline, the Science of Risk. Blue skies my friend.

John's on vacation? I answered none. We don't need any around here.

But bad for the packers!

Bought a brand new HHR SS at the end of march... Hopefully, they'll find a way to stay afloat.

A very good movie IMHO. I've been a trekkie since the beginning. I admit, I was skeptical about JJ Abrams, at first, but I think he did an excellent job. Yves.
