appointment on aug 171 toured the plant withthe shift engineer they have a large stationary power plant with four large boilers arid facilities to burn garbage and are in the process of installing a fifth boiler these boilers- produce sufficient stearn at approximately 620 psi to operate a large steam turbine generator set which produces approx imately nine megawatts per hour this is suffi- cient electricity to supply approximately 4005 homes per day this fuel enhancement system consumes 400 tons of garbage 24 hours a day 365 days a year this is an efficiently operated plant the installation of this facility can eliminate any unknown liabilities there is relatively little pollution going to the atmosphere to harm the environment wrryicarit we build a plant in toronto to r burn the garbage these plaritscan be costly to build howev- er in the long rurithe free energy benefit and reduction in landfill requirements are an enormous advantage to everyone it will cost a large sum vqf money to

unpaid work must have been written by a woman at the risk of being a labelled a rhalechauvinist pig i must take issue with the latest study that says women do more work at home than men dont get me wrong any woman who works outside the home and is caring for even one child is undoubtedly busy but so is the man a statscan report released last week says on average women do 44 hours of unpaid work a day corhpared to the pal try 27 hours performed by men well there are statistics and then theres reality as far as i can see the study doesnt define exactly what unpaid work at home is is it just theso womens work the dishes the laundry dusting or does it also include all that other stuff that men usually end up doing like shovelling the driveway in a blinding snowstormor putting up those infernal christmas lights if the stories told by the guys i know can be believed the definition of unpaid work stops at the front door it doesnt venture into the back yard or the garage perhaps im paranoid but the defini tion of unpaid work in the statscan report must have been written by a woman you see most women my wife included have come to the conclusion that mowing the lawn is recreation so is cleaning out the garage one of the reasons for this misinter pretation- is because men tend to toil outdoors with a beer in hand- this of course is only done to make these monotoriousduties more palatable as i often say to my wife theres noth ing stopping her from drinking a beer or sipping a glass of wine while she cleans the washrooms there are however some women who will count outdoor work as part of your household duties as long as the children are with you some of my hockey buddies say their outdoor work this includes the joy of washing the car will be counted by their spouse when the kids are in tow the theory goes like this if the kids arent with you its your time even if youre under a car with oil dripping on your face while you try to fix something you know absolutely nothing about this theory carrie into play last win ter while i was trying to clear my drive way of three feet of snow 1 the wind was whippingwhite stuff around as i dug out my driveway lit only by my headlights since the power had been snuffed out by the storm s through all this i heard my wife call out from the house honey can the kids come but and help- i wouldnt have been so quick to decline if
