Sarlacc Pit discovered in BC!
A massive pit that was spotted in a remote high alpine valley in British Columbia's Wells Gray Provincial Park earlier this year is the entrance to a previously unexplored cave of "national significance", say explorers. The pit was spotted in April during a routine aerial caribou survey, and that Bevan Ernst, a regional caribou biologist with the ministry, called it 'Sarlaac Pit'! :-D

Millennium Falcon: Owner's Workshop Manual review and giveaway!
Looking for the ultimate gift for a Star Wars fans? Look no more! Introducing the Millennium Falcon: Owner's Workshop Manual!
Piloted by Han Solo and his trusty Wookiee copilot Chewbacca, the Millennium Falcon is one of the most-loved spaceships ever imagined. It appears in the original Star Wars trilogy, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and Solo: A Star Wars Story. It even made a cameo in Revenge of the Sith! This Haynes Manual is based on the YT-1300 Corellian freighter, the best-known variant of which is the Millennium Falcon. And in case you don't know already, the geeks at Haynes Publishing have been creating the gold standard of workshop manuals since 1956, which was a long, long time ago, in a galaxy not so far away.

A Day to Remember
Today is Remembrance Day here in Canada, and in many other countries around the world.
Every year on November 11, Canadians pause to remember the men and women who have served, and continue to serve our country during times of war, conflict and peace. We honour those who fought for Canada in the First World War (1914-1918), the Second World War (1939-1945), and the Korean War (1950-1953), as well as all those who have served since then.
Each year, millions of Canadians wear poppies as a symbol that they will never forget, and to honour those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice. You can read more about the poppy and its significance to remembering the war dead here.
