Anyone know how I can get a prescription for Fluocinonide? It doesn't appear to be something that you can purchase over the counter.
I don't imagine I can just walk into a pharmacy and ask for it. Can I just call up my family doctor and ask him to write it up for me?
A few years ago, my friend gave me some Fluocinonide cream to deal with the sweat rashes that I was getting. I've since lost the tube and need some of it as I have an outbreak right now.
I can't get it from him any more since he moved down to the States. His sister (a doctor who's also in the States) recommended it to me and it worked great, so I know it's exactly what I need.

If you have a portable AC, it's also a good idea to take it apart and clean the condenser coils once every few years as most portable ACs don't have a filter for the condenser (usually only the evaporator).
If you have a dual-hose portable AC, it may be a good idea to do it this weekend with the drop in temperature after the ash we had the past week. The dual-hose portable ACs take air in from the outside, run it through the condenser coil, and exhaust it outside, so it's usually all unfiltered outdoor air going through your condenser coil. If you have a single-hose system, it shouldn't be as bad unless your house is dusty/dirty.

From 1989 to 1991 he lost hundreds of millions of dollars, hit business bankruptcy and nearly hit personal bankruptcy, the only thing that saved him was using his fathers name. He's also an arrogant fuck.
In 2015, Forbes estimated his net worth at $4.1 billion. In June 2015, Business Insider published a June 30, 2014, financial statement supplied by Trump. The statement reflects his net worth as $8.7 billion. Of that amount, $3.3 billion is represented by "Real Estate Licensing Deals, Brand and Branded Developments", described by Business Insider as "basically [implying] that Trump values his character at $3.3 billion".

City won't issue a ticket on hear-say. They'll probably drive by afew times to see if you're "wasting water" and if they see nothing, they'll just shake their heads and move on.

Wills or life insurance policies or what have you.
I don't know about life insurance but for wills, if the order of death is unknown then it is presumed that they both predeceased each other. If a beneficiary dies before the willmaker, their gift lapses.
There is also a 5-day rule where a beneficiary under a will has to survive the willmaker by 5 days in order to receive a gift under the will. So if the willmaker dies and a beneficiary dies 2 days later, the beneficiary does not get anything.
edit: the will goes into intestacy if there are no more beneficiaries... so then it will pass to kids, etc after taxes and debts are paid out.

Yes, that's right. Both of you die intestate. Your property goes to each of your parents. Jointly owned family property is presumptively split 50:50 in BC.

Don't forget that with no will in place, the province will temporarily "cease" assets through Probate, ensuring that they get their cut. As mentioned, if anyone in the family contests the assets, it can get messy and be held up for a very long time.
My grandfather hated paying the tax man, and when we found out he had terminal cancer, he did everything legal possible to allocate his assets so that the Province got very little. With cancerous blood sores and frail as can be, he said to me, "Son, let me tell you - the hardest thing in life is dying". He was referring to alluding the tax man and that memory still makes me smile.
Get a will.

Does it only get held up if the family disagrees with the provinces assessment of things, or when they're trying to get it released from the province to them?
Either way I'll add a will to my to do list now that I actually own things worth something.

There is a backlog of the probate process right now, if all the paperwork gets there on time, and everyone is in agreement and the person has a will, it still take a year or 2 before things get sorted out.
The province doesn't seize anything, they just don't let transfer of title ownership until everything is settled.. not only tax but can be credit cards, liens etc.

If your grandfather hated tax that much, he could have had everything in a corporation.. as long as someone pays the corp taxes and registration, the corporation can still go on without him around. He would had paid a lot less taxes too, especially since our culture worships "job creation" of corporations. Not to mention none of this probate stuff because a corporation never dies. only unregistered.

We did everything a little easier than that - we registered everything in both his and my father's name. Everything - car, house, bank accounts, changed all beneficiaries, you name it. That way, when my Papa passed, all we had to do was show the death certificate, remove his name from all the items and then legally nothing could be touched by the province. Prior, my Papa also gave out as many $25k one-time tax-free donations to family members as he could.
I haven't checked in a while, but last I remember is that anything listed in the will is subject to Probate tax - so the less items listed the better. Best leave everything without listing them to one Executor and then have a separate list with your wishes and hope your Executor follows through.

That's smart estate planning to place everything in joint tenancy if you considered the risks and it fits the circumstances.
You're correct about probate tax but you cannot get around it in the way you described. The executor has a duty to gather all the property and before distributing it the government takes their cut.

Yes, but you can make it a lot simpler when everything is in joint tenancy to claim that certain items are one person's and not the others. You basically claim the basics.

Arctic ice 'grew by a third' after cool summer in 2013

The volume of Arctic sea ice increased by around a third after an unusually cool summer in 2013.
Researchers say the growth continued in 2014 and more than compensated for losses recorded in the three previous years.
The scientists involved believe changes in summer temperatures have greater impacts on ice than thought.

I track things online, and for the fourth fucking time, it says attempted delivery at so and so time but when I check around there is no sign of the slip.
Either it shows up the next day or it does not show up at all and the only reason I know I have something at the post office is because of online tracking.

CP will say they attempted to deliver but not actually do so quite often
For various reasons including being a lazy mailman, or package overload, etc

you'll get the notification in the mail the next day.
if you get packages often, it helps to be nice to the people at the pickup depot where I usually pickup the night of, with the tracking number instead of delivery notice.

is it normal for Canada Post to not leave those missed shipping notification or deliver that slip a day later?
This is like the fourth fucking time it's happened this year. I live in a townhouse complex so they would normally stick those things on the front complex entrance or inside my mailbox.
I track things online, and for the fourth fucking time, it says attempted delivery at so and so time but when I check around there is no sign of the slip.
Either it shows up the next day or it does not show up at all and the only reason I know I have something at the post office is because of online tracking.
What the fuck Canada Post? Anyone else experience this?
Bwahahahaha......... same thing happened to me the other day. I was cursing and swearing on chat in the morning. I purposely hung out in front of my house all morning. Mowing the lawn, taking time out to smell the roses, etc. I wait till the regular post man shows up. He tells me, the parcel guys show up early in the morning like 9:30 am or so. WTF? I've been at the front of my house since 8:00 am. I knew the parcel was coming. Tracking said it arrived in Richmond Friday late morning and it was out for delivery. I check my e-mail notification and it tells me delivery was attempted and notice was left. What notice? It was nowhere to be seen. I finally had to go to the local post office to pick up parcel.
Guess what? The notice was in my mailbox the next day. I assumed the delivery attempt was made to the wrong house, but now I think it's just the case of not enough time, so just drop the parcel off at the post office. Why the hell not drop all parcels off at the post office. I will gladly drive out if I knew it was there and not have to deal with this lying and BS.
I guess it's going to end up "delivery to nearest post office" service. Like I said, I don't mind that, just don't fucking lie about it.

Haha they will have a PR nightmare now.
Sure, they might be upset or something, but deciding to SUE the guy, is just outright dumb.
Sometimes I'm just amazed at the legal dept. of some of these large corporations. Do they even use their brain before coming to the decision of suing?
This would be a PR nightmare no matter how the case ends, and for a corporation like Target, I'm sure their public image is worth far more than any compensation they'd be able to get out of this guy.

My cousin was considering it before, but read that they could fail in the future, so he was put off, iirc there is another type of surgery which isn't supposed to have the same complications as LASIK, just can't recall the name.
Also a few weeks ago cbcnews was showcasing a new product created by an optometrist or opthalmologist in Abby which is supposed to replace the cornea and improve eysight 3X better than 20/20

What a douche
https://www.facebook.com/jennifer.thi/videos/10206346874287313/
So today at work (I work at a pet food and supplies store) this happened. Here's the story:
A woman walks into my store and asks if we know whose french bulldog was in a grey car in our parking lot (we share a parking lot with a 7/11 and a hair salon). She said it was left in a car and was in distress, so I went out with her to check it out. Upon looking at the dog, I could tell it was overheating - the windows in the car were opened half an inch and the dog was panting heavily, drooling, and was trying to be as close to the crack of fresh air as possible with not even any water in the car.
May I also mention that french bulldogs are extremely susceptible to respiratory issues and trouble breathing?
As my partner is about to call the non emergency line, I'm trying to find out how to help this dog. I didn't expect anything to happen from doing this, but I tried opening the passenger side door when I found out it was unexpectedly unlocked. We both are shocked and have no idea whose car or dog this was, so we agreed that I should bring it into my store and wait for the owner to pick it up.
(Note: the woman, before coming to my store, had gone into both the 7/11 and the hair salon asking for the owner of the vehicle and no one had said anything.)
Just as we're going to leash the dog, a man who has been standing in front of this car THIS ENTIRE TIME sipping on a slurpee asks us what we're doing. He has heard everything we've said, he's silently watched as I've opened the car door and get a hold of the dog.
I ask him if the car is his. He says yes. The dog is his, too.
My partner then proceeds to tell him that he shouldn't have left his dog in the car and that his windows were nowhere close to being rolled down sufficiently when he turns completely angry on us and tells us we know nothing about dogs or hot cars, that his dog had air through the cracks of opened window he gave it and therefore was completely comfortable, and basically yelling about us not being justified in trying to save his overheating bulldog.
He then turns to me, where I'm standing by the opened door making sure his dog doesn't run into the street, and tells me to "not touch (his) fucking door and dog." I don't comply because 1) I'm allowing his dog to breathe and 2) by this time he was being such an asshole that I wasn't going to give in to his orders just because he was taller and bigger and louder than me.
He then proceeds to march over to where I am, slam the door right in front of me (almost slamming it on his dog's face) and forcefully walks right into me and starts screaming in my face.
The video starts in the latter end of his screaming act at me. The rest you can watch for yourself.
I'm very lucky that the woman I was with filmed this and caught his face, how much his windows were rolled down, and his licence plate. People like this shouldn't have pets and shouldn't get away with unacceptable behaviour.
It would mean a lot if you could share this to spread the word about leaving animals in hot, unventilated cars. I suppose some people just don't get it... But maybe after seeing how irrational his argument is, hopefully some people will think twice before making a "sandwich and slurpee" stop. You can't wait until your pet dies from being in a hot car to realize how quickly it can get hot and how a little sliver of a window essentially does nothing.

A young woman in Hong Kong has been sentenced to jail for three and a half months for assaulting a senior police officer with her breast during a protest over cross-border trading, the South China Morning Post reports.
Ng Lai-ying, 30, was convicted early in July and was sentenced on Thursday. The authorities have suggested that Ng pushed against the officer with her breast in order to accuse him of indecent assault in what deputy magistrate Michael Chan Pik-kiu termed an inappropriate use of her “female identity.”
According to the Post, Chan told the court that he had to hand down a deterrent sentence in case “the public might mistakenly think it is a trivial matter to assault police officers during protests.” He also said that he had received threats in connection with the case.
Ng, who was remanded two weeks ago with three other defendants, has been released on bail pending an appeal, the Post reports.

dude threw the first punch and started a street fight - no rules. it stops when whoever is giving the beat down decides to stop, and everyone deals with the legal stuff after.
the soccer kick by fighter 2 is totally harsh, but since the guy didn't get chocked out, limb or joints snapped - to me that's a show of restraint. i'd say he made out OK for something he started with throwing the first punch.
google roger huerta another pro fighter. he's 145-155 lb and beat down a college/pro linebacker after he KO'd a 5' 100lb girl. media likes to post these type of hero stories b/c it makes headlines.
you could fault huerta for jumping in and starting a fight, but IMO not for beating the guy down until he can't get up, it's a street fight and he's a small guy. he has to use his skills/abilities to prevent from the big guy from using his (size/athleticism) b/c he'd be on the other side of a beating from a bigger guy and who knows when he decides to stop.
underscore
07-30-2015, 11:18 AM
Depends if he actually threw that punch or not, depending on the article the story varies from him throwing a punch at her right away, to him walking away and her following "to get an apology from him" then grabbing him and refusing to let go. If you want an apology from someone making them unable to breathe sounds like a pretty stupid way to do it. Either way it sounds like there's a bit of grey area that's hard to clear up with third hand accounts from only one side.
The running soccer kick to someone in a chokehold is the part that I don't think has any grey area (and also stupid as hell, what kind of MMA fighter kicks someone in the groin?) as in no version of the story did he start anything with player 3 here.
But whatever, "feminist" cunts can get all excited about it since a dumb man like me couldn't possibly have been as horrifically sexually assaulted like she was, and therefore couldn't possibly know what I'm talking about </sarcasm>

Just walk down Chinatown and you should find plenty. For Richmond - there's a stand when you walk right into Yoahan.
Or, if you're withdrawing a bunch of cash bills anyways, you can try your luck and ask the bank if they have any. TD + HSBC usually have a bunch - but at this time of the year YMMV.

They're professional fighters who, in part, escalated a common (at night clubs, at least), albeit impolite, gesture into a fight.
Reverse the roles with a female grabbing a male UFC fighter's friend's ass and, even if the female took the first swing, the two male UFC fighters would be crucified.
Part of the responsibility of being a professionally-trained fighter is avoiding this kind of shit, regardless of gender.
This wasn't an attempted murder or armed robbery where it would be okay.

Alright lets say you spit in my face. You think a perfectly reasonable response is for me to throw you in a choke, smash you in the face, throw you in another choke while my friend takes a running kick at your gentlemens area and then wrap up with more bashing your face before you can even get a word out?
Yes that sounds like a completely reasonable reaction. Especially the part where a random third person, with whom you haven't interacted with at all, takes a running kick at you while you're restrained.

Things like tracking users and not properly securing the data, even bringing up random peoples location data during parties (I don't remember the specifics but it was something like that), intentionally breaking bylaws in multiple cities, remotely connecting to their system (in Montreal IIRC) from another country and deleting files relevant to a police investigation, etc, etc. As far as getting you from A to B I'm sure they work just fine, but as a company they're dog shit.

So a man in the us killed 8 ppl 6 children, one is his, and 2 adults (1 is his ex)
http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/624/cpsprodpb/455D/production/_84775771_30477c65-88d3-44b3-a2b8-437fce1fde8e.jpg
Court records showed that David Conley's criminal history dated back to at least 1988
Six children and two adults have been found handcuffed and fatally shot in the head in a Texas home, following the arrest of a man who exchanged gunfire with police.
The gunfire broke out when officers who had been called to the Houston-area home late on Saturday spotted the body of a child and tried to enter.
A man surrendered about an hour later, after talks with police negotiators.
Police said the suspect, David Conley, was later charged with capital murder.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office said the bodies were found after "a welfare check was conducted on the premises" by deputies at about 21:00 local time (02:00 GMT Sunday).
A man inside opened fire when the deputies tried to force their way in.
The dead were identified as Dewayne Jackson, 50, his wife Valerie Jackson, 40, and children Nathaniel, 13, Dewayne, 10, Honesty, 11, Caleb, nine, Trinity, seven, and Jonah, six.
Nathaniel was believed to be the son of Mr Conley, 48, and Valerie Jackson from a previous relationship.
Chief Deputy Tim Cannon of the Harris County Sheriff's Office said: "We... cannot fully comprehend the motivation of an individual that would take the lives of so many innocent people. Especially the lives of the youngest.
"The killer's motives appear to be related to a dispute with Valerie."
Mr Conley is being held in jail without bond.
The officials had previously said the bodies of five children and three adults were found in the house.
Court records showed that Mr Conley's criminal history dated back to at least 1988, the Associated Press reports.
Last month, he was charged with assault of a family member, the news agency says.

The guy will not shut up on Twitter. To cover up his affair he sent out e-mails about hiring a gay prostitute.
Both are members of the Tea party.
Courser, 43, a fellow freshman representative who like Gamrat bases legislation on Christian beliefs, said this week he orchestrated a false, sexually explicit email to Republicans and reporters in May claiming he was caught having sex with a male prostitute to deflect attention from the affair.
I assume these new laws based on Christian beliefs will likely have them publicly stoned to death for violating most of the commandments, no?

A $2-million masterpiece by a 17th century Italian artist was back on display in the Taiwan capital on Tuesday after a 12-year-old boy tripped, fell and punched a hole in the canvas, the exhibit organizer said.
Still Life of Flowers by Italian master Paolo Porpora is part of a Taipei exhibit showcasing artwork painted by or influenced by Leonardo da Vinci, according to organizer David Sun.
"It was such an unusual accident," Sun said. "The boy was listening to the guide and wasn't looking where he was going, and tripped and smashed a hole in the artwork."
Sun said the boy and his family had expressed sincere regret and won't face any punishment.
"We had an Italian appraiser on hand and immediately contacted the collector," Sun said.
"We decided to repair the painting immediately on site and it's back on display already."
The painting has been valued at about $1.5 million US.

So my soccer team wants new jerseys, I've found a style we all want, and would be ordering it from Pro Direct Soccer out of the UK. What I'm confused about is if we'd definitely absolutely be paying duty and taxes for them. I've had teammates order new cleats and things from Pro Direct and they didn't pay anything extra, but that's only for a few items instead of 14 jerseys (difference in item quantity and price). I checked out the CBSA website but it still left me wondering. Anybody have any ideas?

Honestly it depends on who the company ship it with.. (then how much is the net cost of the order)..
Commercial shippers (Fedex, UPS etc) with get you to pay taxes because they just have to.. If by Royal Mail because CBSA handles the tax collection for incoming mail.. it will be hit and miss.
Duty will depend on the origin of your item (if via commercial shipper).
Taxes GST/PST will be charged always by commercial shippers..
Royal Mail -> Canada Post both is maybe depending on the cost.

Do not get them shipped via UPS, their brokerage charges are outrageous and you will be hit with a large lump sum for brokerage.
Typically anything under ~$200 doesnt get charged duties when shipped via Canada Post. I always get my seller to ship via postmail, so it come by Canada Post. Most of the time I never pay duties. The only time i'm guaranteed duties is when shipping via large carrier(Puro,UPS,DHL,Fedex).
That being said, since you're ordering a large amount of jerseys you will most likely have to pay duties.

If the company will not ship via their equivalent of Canada post or USPS then better not order. Like the other guys said, you will get hit hard for brokerage fees

^ supposedly there's a way around it by paying the duty at a customs office yourself, then you show UPS or whoever the receipt and they can't charge you the extra brokerage and duty. I'm not sure how to find out where all the customs offices are but I know every international airport will have one.

$50 vs
1. You have to call ahead to UPS to make sure the package hasn't cleared electronically yet.
2. You have to head down to UPS depot at the airport (Ferguson Dr. on the way to Iona Beach).. drive to the other side of the airport Miller Rd. get it cleared.
3. Back to UPS either pick up the package or wait for them to deliver.
4. Oh and deal with Richmond traffic

Sounds like it's more of a hassle down there than it is up here. Still, nice to have a way to avoid UPS' inflated fees if you aren't able to avoid them.

Can anyone in New West check for me if it's still there? or better yet pick it up for me? I can't go there right now, and would really hate to show up and it's already gone.

This is whats said on Reddit
Asshats were "drifting" then flipped the vehicle from the upper lot to the lower lot.
from shitty driver thread:
http://www.revscene.net/forums/654752-shitty-dangerous-drivers-thread-542.html#post8680230
First of all frosty fire you dumb fuck no one was drifting a car. I happened to be I'm the vehicle during the accident. We were teaching a friend to drive standard and when she was turning she panicked and hit the gas instead of the brake being a new driver we have all done it. It's nice to see that you would rather assume the worst then wonder if the occupation are ok. We were only going 20k when we hit the curb. It was an honest mistake and all I feel is sympathy for the nlearning driver.
Secondly it is 100% a real sti, 2.2L turbo dynoed at 310 hp. The speedo has sti on it, the sti sway bar is there, as well as the official paper work from Japan.

You can see how important Gran Turismo actually is in the heart of car fans. How many were there already? Like 4 different "Vision Gran Turismo" cars already?
When would we see a Vision Forza? :fuckthatshit:

Guu was pretty good the last time I had it there, but expensive iirc. Does Ebisu serve it? Their food is usually pretty good
I'm pretty sure Zakkushi does as well. Their food is generally pretty good as well.

I'm not sure if it's still there, it was the one on Thurlow I think? Off Robson, I remember that much. It was also quite a few years ago that I went. So they may have changed their prices to something more reasonable since then. They were really good, just not 8-9 good lol

Sitting at my desk this morning laughing at everyone who bought into the bitcoin hype hahaha.
When the average idiot on my FB feed is talking about buying, you know it's a terrible idea.
From 1200$ to 300$ in about a year... what a great deal.

MasterPass hotel offer (http://www.orbitz.com/travel-deals/masterpass/)
Orbitz has a deal right now for $100 of $100. You just need to stay a night, and it needs to be at least $100. It's awesome, but it's only valid until Oct 2.
I was trying to find something in downtown Vancouver, but it was still 140 USD after taxes for the places I wanted. I ended up booking a night at the new Sandman by the Langley theatre for less than $24 CAD. It'll be good for a date night :)

Yup that's the one, I had some training at that location earlier in the year and it's super nice. Moxies for room service so you don't even have to leave the room ;)
