So does anyone else have Google Voice in their gmail now? I have a "Call Phone" option in my chat window and I can make free calls to anywhere in North America to any phone number..
I did a few tests and it's really good.. Sound quality not unlike Skype, although there's a 1-2 second delay on the reception..
Google announced that calls in NA will be free until the end of the year...

I'm doing a little exploratory research for a paper I am considering writing roughly on the topic of the steel industry. In any case, I'm poking through an academic reference database and find an article that - from the title - looks ok. So I pop open the abstract, and this is what I find:
The article discusses the author's experiences as a sailor with the U.S.S. Weitz and his brief encounters with prostitutes when the ship docked at Subic Bay, Philippines. He narrates how the whores at Subic Bay tried to please their guests in exchange for money. The author also expresses his thoughts regarding the miserable situation of the owl that he saw.
I'm all for ethnographic research. I'm even for really loose experiential research. But I'm thinking that using the term 'whores' after first using the term 'prostitutes' is maybe not the best strategy in an abstract that provides little context. Also, what's up with the owl?

For anyone interested in some historical photographs I found a bunch of old slides that my dad took in Montreal in 1967 and put up a set on Flickr with the ones I have found so far.
I also have a set of Ottawa in the 1960's although I have been advised by my dad that two of the shots are actually Vancouver in 1968 and one of them could possibly be Montreal, but he's not sure.
I have four more boxes of slides dating from 1965-1973 to go through so I'm sure I'll be adding to these sets over the next few weeks.

NEW posted by odyssey : Aug 11 (25 days, 8 hours ago.) NEW
I don't think he was terribly concerned with being an artiste. Also realize that these slides have degraded quite severely over 40 years. Some of them have faded right away.
NEW posted by K*Rock : Aug 12 (24 days, 22 hours ago.) NEW
I can just imaging the excitement of finding a box labelled 'montreal 67' and thinking 'oooh, expo! vintage montreal...girls, swinging trudeau era quebec' then holding the first slide up to the light and it's a picture of an empty surburban street. ;-) joking aside, it's still a cool find, and great that you can share the memories with your dad, even if the photos don't tell the whole story.
NEW posted by odyssey : Aug 12 (24 days, 15 hours ago.) NEW
Oh, I'm sure I'll find more. I think alot of the ones I've found so far were just snapshots he took to send home to his folks in Northern Ontario. There's a whole other box marked "Expo 67" that I have yet to go through that shows some promise.
NEW The ones that messed with my head the most though were pictures of my dad at his college prom dancing with some girl who is not my mom (of course they hadn't even met at that time). That's just cognitive dissonance when you see that. Or maybe it was just the idea of my dad dancing...
