In their first interview since their children hilariously hi-jacked a live BBC segment on Korean affairs, college professor Robert Kelly and his wife Kim Jung-A spoke to The Wall Street Journal about the circumstances, the chaos, and the global reaction to the now-legendary slapstick video.

If you’re having trouble with your Rogers email account Thursday evening, don’t worry, you’re not alone.

Our technical team is aware of the issue though and working on having that resolved ASAP”.

Frank and Nora, proprietors of Rosie’s Kitchen, the friendly breakfast and lunch spot at 1549 Bayview Ave. will retire at the end of June. The congenial couple has spent the years since their arrival in Canada in 2004 from the Republic of Korea toiling at the making of omelettes, schnitzel, soup and salads. Their warmth and consistency made Rosie’s seem indispensable to the legions of customers who eat there. The couple worked seven days a week until June 2015 when they decided to take it easy, and close the cafe on Mondays, leaving them with a lighter 6 day work week. Now, it seems, we will all have to do without their cheery welcome and wholesome food. They say it is time to put their feet up or perhaps do some travelling.

The last two weeks have been a roller coaster ride here at the South Bayview Bulldog. Due to server issues, the site has been up and down more often than we can count on our fingers and toes. We have taken steps to commence the migration of all of our articles over to a new home. We hope there will not be any down time, but if it happens, rest assured, we’ll be back up and running soon! For up-to-the-minute updates you can always check our Facebook and Twitter newsfeeds. Our new host, Bluehost, is rated among the most reliable of web servers and is the official WordPress recommended provider. We believe service will be more reliable and faster when the changeover is complete. We thank all our friends and followers in Leaside, Thorncliffe, Davisville, Sherwood Park, Moore Park, Deer Park, Rosedale, Lawrence Park and throughout Toronto for their kind understanding. — Publishers.
