3. Welcome to the newest candidate for Council in this year's Municipal election and congrats for managing to generate some press. Not an easy thing to do as an unknown candidate. The race is on in Ward 7!
4. Hottest rumour to date regarding the next Municipal Election - will Sheila Wisdom jump in and make the Mayor's race interesting? Unlike a sitting Councillor who might be wary of declaring now and beginning a campaign, were Sheila to do so now she would have an open field to campaign, forcing the Mayor and other potential candidates to either declare or cede the early campaigning to her.
5. Interesting article in the Globe and Mail on Windsor real estate.
6. This is one I didn't hear about last week - Google Street View Removes Windsor Murder Scene
7. It's certainly not Heart Smart but it is lip-smacking good - Phog's new All Poutine menu! Served Tuesday thru Saturday, 5pm to 10pm. Options available for both vegetarians and meat lovers.
8. If you're not afraid to expand your horizons a little bit, make sure you stop in Scaledown to catch Mark Bradley's News for the week.
9. Demonstrating what can be done with some simple Web 2.0 tools, my fellow Torch blogger (and blog founder) Damian has an interview from Kandahar with the Commanding Officer of the Canadian Helicopter Force (Afghanistan), LCol Smyth. (inteview conducted by Skype and posted on YouTube)
