So another recent find was the McGill Sports clinic. If you are physically injured and say it was sport or exercise related you can see a doctor very fast here.
(514) 398-7000

It is not free and McGill people get it on insurance apparently but it is quick and if you are in pain maybe $50 is worth paying....basically they offer lots of physio after check-up by doctor.
It is open to the public.

Dying for the snow to go away, fatal 'accidents' an annual event.
Well I warn visitors to Montreal that the snow removal people are total cowboys who are irresponsible at best and darn right aggressive at worst. I have to dig out press clippings to prove that they kill someone every winter and after visitors have had the pleasure of some prick ing a mini snow tractor AT them at 60 km/h., they soon realise that snow clearance is best avoided if you'd like to live.
Well this winter they surpass themselves, 4 dead and 3 more months to go. It is pretty clear what that limp dicked mayor needs to do but of course he'll do nothing, because what's a few dead when there are private drives to be cleared...
They even have the nerve to give us instructions on how to assist them. My only interactions with them have shown them to be rude, agressive and ignorant, so I say do what you can to piss them off, like hit the emrgency off button, throw snowballs at them and drive really slowly in front of them..Mind you they might kill you for daring to inconvenience these overpaid morons.
Talking of pavement clearance I want point out that the quality of it depends on where you live. Westmount is a pleasure to go running in on clear ice and snow free pavements and NDG has a 5 inch thick layer of perma-ice welded to the pavement. I am sure if those lazy buggers tried clearing it instead of trying to beat the land speed record for minitractor racing then we could do crazy shit like go for a walk. Perhaps they should be paid on square feet of clear pavement, then they's be pretty cheap. Oh, hang on these are the guys who smashed the windows of the homes of councillors who tried to sue them for not doing their jobs properly about 4 years back...Errr..Sorry then I meant great job, worth every thousand of those reasobale city taxes.

restore, photos, undelete, pictures, memory card recover, Picassa, Google, picassa help, Camera get back my photos fotos videos
So I borrowed a camera and the new version of Picassa made it look like all the photos had been uploaded to hard drive, I pressed delete...and in one click and woosh had erased all my friend's photos and videos. No, not in recycle bin, gone.
Sadly for me they had great value and I had to get them back. Picassa help page recommended a program that cost $110. No fanx.
Anyway I found a good program PC Inspector Smart Recovery which is free and works.
Just select JPG or AVI and off you go, takes a while but who cares?
XXXXXXXXX2 APRIL 09XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Just found a better one called Recuva
http://www.recuva.com/
It is a ton quicker and has quite a good function to make deleted files unrecoverable, quite useful if lending out memory sticks cameras etc
Also they do a defrag program that helps freshen up a bulging computer HD.

And of course Ccleaner is nice...
