<span style="font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The name "Winnipeg" comes from the Cree for
"muddy waters". The Winnipeg area was a trading centre for Aboriginal
peoples prior to the arrival of Europeans. The first fort was built there in
1738 by French traders. A settlement was later founded by the Selkirk settlers
in 1812, the nucleus of which was incorporated as the City of Winnipeg in 1873.
During the late 19th century and early 20th century, Winnipeg was one of the
fastest growing cities in North America. The University of Manitoba, founded
during this period, was the first university in Western Canada.</span></div>

Traditionally, a tent peg is improvised from a section of a small tree branch, if possible with a small side branch cut off to leave a hook, driven into the ground narrower end first.Marie Frankhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04749938949735030356noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802526953822540226.post-68524917124346676502012-06-13T03:33:00.002-07:002013-08-13T05:24:02.139-07:00Pegswood railway station<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Pegswood railway station is a small railway station on the south east edge of Pegswood village in Northumberland, England. It is on the East Coast Main Line so a wide variety of trains pass through the station but very few stop there.<br />
<br />
The station is served by Northern Rail – two southbound trains and one northbound train call at the station each day on Mondays to Saturdays. There is no service on Sundays. Access to the platforms is via sloping tarmacadamed footpaths, and transfer between the north- and southbound platforms is provided by the road overbridge (ECM7-77) at the north end of the station.<br />
<br />
The station has featured in one of Bill Bryson's books – the author took the train to Pegswood before walking to Ashington.<br />

The first PEGS conference on Good Society questions was held at Yale University. PEGS co-sponsored a conference in the fall of 1994 on A New Constitutionalism: Designing Political Institutions for a Good Society. And with the support of the Americans Talk Issues Foundation, PEGS held a conference on "Citizen Judgment and the Design of Democratic Institutions" in Washington D.C. in February, 1995. </div>Marie Frankhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04749938949735030356noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802526953822540226.post-58234269848041958072012-02-02T04:28:00.005-08:002012-02-02T04:28:37.406-08:00Who is in PEGS?PEGS brings together a diverse international network of thinkers engaged in good society analysis. To help bridge some of the gaps between academic inquiry and practical reality, PEGS seeks and encourages the active participation of interested thinkers from politics, journalism, and the activist community, as well as from academia. The PEGS Board Members and Institutional Sponsors include a growing number of prominent thinkers and organizations.Marie Frankhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04749938949735030356noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802526953822540226.post-14075770775890139112012-02-02T04:28:00.002-08:002012-02-02T04:28:24.686-08:00What is PEGS?PEGS is a nonpartisan, ideologically diverse, nonprofit organization whose goal is to promote serious and sustained inquiry into innovative institutional designs for a good society. PEGS responds to the growing awareness that current versions of socialism and democratic capitalism fail to offer workable visions of a good society and seem increasingly to contradict such basic values as liberty, democracy, equality, and environmental sustainability. By encouraging development of practical visions of the good society, PEGS hopes to create a theoretical basis for the eventual restructuring of real world political-economic systems.Marie Frankhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04749938949735030356noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802526953822540226.post-85708076641240409672007-05-27T05:35:00.000-07:002011-10-03T05:37:21.287-07:00Canadian Street Style Bloggers on CTV, The Record<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />

I like the hat/dress combination, and the mix of the pendant on the detail of the dress pattern - it matches the buttons, too! This beautiful young woman is a friend of mine, and she always looks great. I'm sure she'll return to Hooks.<br />

<br />
First, apologies for the lack of updates. December was a flurry of exams and papers and travel. I hope to be more regular in my posting through the rest of winter and into the spring.<br />
<br />
That said, over the holidays I was in Chicago and Portland (OR), and took a few photos, as well as a New Years Party here in Winnipeg.<br />
Best.</div>

I saw this young woman in the bookstore near school. Apparently there was some "in joke" (which I missed out on) about street-style blogs. She was reading the new issue of Flaunt, and wanted to be photographed "candidly". Is it still candid if it's posed candidly?<br />
I love the shirt - the bow on the front and the buttons on the sleeve. Good fit, simple, elegant.<br />

<br />
Taylor's style is so casual; he never stands out at the univsersity, until you look close. It's obvious that he pays attention to detail. The unique shirt and matched shoes really make this look complete, but casual and effortless.</div>

<br />
My first post - and my first blog.<br />
Following in the tradition of Paris' FaceHunter, Vancouver's The Commodified, and many more, Hooks n' Pegs is a steet-style blog based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I stroll the streets of this northern city, and the halls of my small univerisity, in an attempt to capture orginality, flare, subtlety, and just great style.<br />
I'll try to post a few times a week, but during term-paper season (now) posts may be sporadic - please check back often, though.<br />
