Hey everyone,

So a few weeks ago my mom was doing some banking and needed her signature on a form witnessed. President’s Choice is an online bank, but they told her the form could be witnessed by management at any CIBC branch. She went there but the assistant manager refused to do it. Witnessing a signature is a very simple process – you’re just confirming that you watched someone sign their own name to a form. It takes less than a minute. Yet they spent ages arguing because the assistant manager refused to believe that PC Financial is in any way affiliated with CIBC. My mom eventually left and paid a lawyer $50 to stand there while she signed the form. She called the bank later, and the manager backed up his assistant about the (non-) relationship with PC Financial.

Hey everyone,

I made some changes to the update process, which worked fine for a while. Naturally it failed catastrophically in the middle of exams. It also dragged the main site down with it, although that was fixed by severing the wordpress+gallery link. I don’t have time to deal with another project right now so the gallery is down until further notice.

[EDIT] The gallery has been erased as the problem could not be repaired with simple tinkering. No pictures have been lost (remember: always keep a fresh backup!). I’ve decided to wait until Gallery 3 comes out, which should be fairly soon.
