Lau.renautThis quiz is silly. first of all in the major question there is no 'business' and second of all why would you shotgun a light beer.

Under the terms of the Canada-China Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement, approved by PM Harper on Friday, China can sue Canada in secret tribunals to repeal national and provincial laws that interfere with Chinese investments, including laws limiting construction of the Northern Gateway tar sands pipeline.

Lau.renauti use instacart. it's been good so far. they are working out kinks, but they have great customer service
The Austin American-Statesman reports that Whole Foods teamed up with Instacart to offer online grocery service in 15 major U.S. cities.
The new service, which will be piloted in Austin and Boston, operates like other grocery delivery services with the exception of placing an Instacart employee in the Whole Foods store to fulfill orders in as little as one hour.
According to a painful-to-watch online video ad for the service, that apparently means you’ll never have to go without a gluten-free cupcake or be forced to sit out of a coffee break but there’s only (gasp) full-lactose milk available.
To use the new service, consumers enter their ZIP code on the Instacart website or app then shop with a virtual cart. Once they’ve checked off their list, customers chose a delivery window of anywhere from one our to two hours or another scheduled time.
Then the embedded Instacart personal shopper receives the order on his or her smartphone, begins shopping for the items and makes the delivery or sets the goods aside for pickup.
Additionally, customers can use the new service to send groceries to others; as seen in the video when a drunk grandma sends her fraternity-member grandson tofu.
The venture provides the first delivery free, before charging $5.99 for one-hour delivery and $3.99 for two-hour delivery. Instacart offers a $99 annual membership for free deliveries of purchases of more than $35.

First a Boeing 747, and now an industrial complex on a Vancover island; it seems no canvas is too large for Brazilian graffiti artists Os Gemeos who were invited to the Vancouver Biennale to turn six multi-story silos on Granville Island into their trademark ‘Giants.’ The murals on the 70-foot towers are now the largest paintings ever attempted by the pair, an astounding feat considering Os Gemeos completely donated a month of their time to create the non-profit art project. An Indiegogo fundraising campaign to recoup costs associated with painting the silos has been extremely successful. You can see more over on Arrested Motion.

There are drive-in liquor stores and drive-in banks, but what about brothels? Not here, but in Vienna, where prostitution is legal. Workers have been complaining that they can only conduct business in areas that aren’t near residential neighborhoods, meaning not enough access to clean bathrooms and places like hotels where they can safely and comfortably operate. Drive-in brothels might be the fix.
The idea would be similar to the “sex drive-in” in Zurich, Switzerland, Vienna City Councilor told Die Presse newspaper (via The Local), where legally-operating women of the night can bring their customers in from off the street corners and ply their trade in wooden “sex boxes.”
The problem in Vienna boils down to the areas in the city where prostitutes are allowed to work, which often don’t have hotels they can rent by the hour, clean restrooms and transportation.
In Zurich, prostitutes must obtain permits and pay taxes to operate in these drive-in brothels, and in turn get a safe place to do business.
Frauenberger is planning on bringing up the idea at the city’s next meeting on prostitution with police and non-governmental groups in Vienna.

Summer is ending, and soon America's teens will head back to the new-shoes-on-linoleum-floors hell that is high school. The only thing keeping our weary youth going is FLAMIN' HOT Cheetos®, and now, First Lady Michelle Obama has taken them away. Our nation's school vending machines will have healthy snacks this year.
Lau.renaut'Ferrero, the company that makes Nutella, uses about 25% of the hazelnuts in the world'
(ronnyg)
Of course, it’s not just Nutella: Fererro also makes plenty of chocolates with hazelnuts. Ferrero Group is best known to Americans for making the unhealthy choco-hazelnut spread Nutella, or maybe for the Ferrero Rocher, a popular candy that also contains hazelnuts. They need a lot of hazelnuts, and with supplies low and prices more than doubling this spring, it makes sense to acquire secure a hazelnut source.
As we’ve told you before, the components necessary to make a single jar of Nutella come from all over the world. azelnuts are grown in the Middle East and parts of Europe, as well as some grown in the United States. Turkey has historically been a source for the nuts, and in a press release, Ferrero praised Oltan’s “historical, valuable, and consolidated presence in the Turkish hazelnut market.”

Lau.renautso creepy. what is wrong with people
Lau.renaut@arose
In January of 2010, I decided to change my outlook on how I manage my gaming time, how I collect games, and how I contend with the nemesis that so many gamers share: the dreaded backlog.
Lau.renaut@arose- it's bogus
If this wedding photo, hailed by various news outlets as the best ever, set off your bullshit detector, your instincts are good. Although the photo is genuine, the feel-good backstory that helped make it ubiquitous on Facebook earlier this month is mostly bogus.
Lau.renautwhy don't you just move in and see how it goes?
Lau.renautstill think there is an opportunity for the RIGHT apps.
The new American Dream was going so well: drop out, make an app for sending emojis that disappear after 5 seconds, and collect your check. But it turns out the app gold rush is broken for almost everyone.
Lau.renautnot a huge animal lover but some of those are pretty adorable
Lau.renautwhat?!

The Raiders of the Lost Walmart are a brave band of retail archaeologists who comb the continent’s stores to find the most ancient books, electronic devices, video games, and software at inappropriately high prices. I say “the continent” because today’s dispatches come from Raiders stationed in Canada.
Yes, they have Walmart in Canada, and yes, retail antiquities can be found there too. For example, behold the flip-phone version of the Blackberry Pearl, released in 2008, found by raider Eric.
Now, there is a market for this phone. I really loved the Blackberry Pearl: really, for my purposes, the biggest problems were the 2G mobile Internet and my tendency to butt-dial with it. I would probably still be using one if the flip version had been available in 2009 when I decided to get a phone with a keyboard on it. The problem isn’t that this phone is still for sale. The problem is its price.
This price isn’t as bad as it appears at first: $398.83 in Canadian dollars is $372.33. Which is still a really outrageous price.
Elsewhere in Canada, how about a copy of DJ Hero? Jeff found this copy on the shelf…not even marked down.
Sure, you could pay the equivalent of $74.52 for this DJ Hero turntable set for the PlayStation 2. Or you could wait a few days for delivery and pay less than half as much on Amazon.
Lau.renauti would've flipped. i'm so scared of sharks
