Oh and also:
"Dubbed the 'Marilyn Monroe building' because of its bountiful curves, it was designed by Beijing-based firm, MAD."
"MAD's highrise will be the most recognizable structure in Mississauga. Located at the corner of Hurontario St. and Burnhamthorpe Rd., it will be within walking distance of the city's only other landmark — Square One Shopping Centre excepted — and that's its city hall, designed in the early 1980s by Ed Jones and Michael Kirkland. It was also chosen by a competition, but in that case, the scope was national, not global. Still, the building is considered a post-modern classic, visited by architects from around the world."

Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

San Francisco — John Suhrhoff found a Louis Vuitton bag on a Sausalito park bench.
Inside, police say, were a 12-carat diamond ring, pearl and emerald jewellery, a Cartier watch and roughly $500 in cash. The contents were worth $1-million.
But the respiratory therapist didn't think of heading to a pawn shop -- he took the bag to police Monday afternoon.

... anyone else that can't believe someone would carry all that around, though? 
I get nervous just having like $100 in my purse. Hah.

Yeah me too. I rarely even carry cash.
That's weird that'd be floating around, but it's great he returned it.

pfft, I carry at least $1,000,000 in jewelery and expensive handbags with me at all times. You just never know when it will come in handy.
what worries me more is that somebody had enough money to LOSE $1,000,000. If I was carrying that around, you can bet your ass I wouldn't let go of it, never mind leaving it on a park bench.
