Warehouse Sale for Diamond Nail Files, Rasps

marla — Mon, 20 May 2013 15:15:55 +0000

Diamancel products are hard as diamonds so they are very strong, washable and last for many years. They make diamond nail files, foot buffers and rasps (and also foot creams but I doubt they have diamonds in them!).

I use their nail file and like it so much I buy them as gifts. They are having a 3-day warehouse clearance sale this week.

Youth at Centaur’s Comedic Show: only $14

sandra — Sat, 18 May 2013 01:51:20 +0000

Everyone can use a good belly laugh. Right now until May 26th, The Number 14 playing at the Centaur Theatre is a rollicking bus ride that everyone, including your 10-17 year-olds will enjoy. People are always searching for ideas on how to spend quality time with their children, and what better way than to introduce them to live theatre. This one will tickle everyone’s funny bone.

Wearing masks evoking the Commedia dell’Arte in the 16th Century Italy, six actors turn themselves into 60 characters found on a city bus. Who hasn’t enjoyed people watching on a bus? This parade of humanity – trying not to fall asleep, getting dressed for work, magazine readers, chatting girls, elderly, germophobes, teens singing, graffiti artists, butt cracks, and kids on a field trip, are encountered daily on a commute.

The ride includes pratfalls, acrobatics, sight gags, mime, dozens of costume changes (some right before your very eyes), and song and dance routines; Even the inevitable abrupt stops and starts of a bus, gets turned into silliness. You will never be able to eat a cheese doodle again without smirking.

The Number 14 is a Canadian success story. Written collectively in Vancouver and originally directed by Centaur’s artistic director Roy Surette, it has toured the world, including two runs on Broadway. After 20 years, Montreal will be its final stop.

This is true family fare that everyone, of all ages, can relate to. What are you waiting for - go book some seats before the bus leaves!

Location: Centaur Theatre, 453 St-François-Xavier
corner: Notre-Dame
Tel: 514-288-3161
Dates: until May 26
Price: $36 to $47.50; $14 for students ages 10-14; $26 for older students; $34 to $40 for seniors; $34 for those under 30.

Buying organic food has become a huge growing business. There are many stores around Montreal, but Club Organic is more of a wholesaler who will sell retail, so you can save money.

Food items bought at this store can be traced back to the farmer who produced them, as these products are certified by Ecocert Canada, an international regulatory network. For nearly two generations, Club Organic has been a company which encourages organic farming.
