1 Kings 3, 1 Kings 11

Solomon's life reminds me of the swing of a pendulum. Smooth and graceful...silent and elegant...yet periodically given to extremes.

Wisdom, loyalty, diplomacy, and efficiency marked his attitude and acts during the early years of his reign. Best of all, "Solomon loved the LORD" (1 Kings 3:3). His achievements could not be listed on 10 pages. When visited by surrounding magistrates, he was viewed with awe. And rich? Multiplied millions annually. And creative? He was an architect, songwriter, artist, author, and inventor of unparalleled ability.

Three people were taken to hospital on Friday night after a fire broke out in a four-storey apartment building in downtown Winnipeg.

The Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service was called to the 200 block of Vaughan Street at 6:50 p.m., according to a release from the City of Winnipeg.

When crews arrived, they saw smoke coming from the building.

Firefighters helped some residents escape from the building. Other residents had managed to get out on their own before crews arrived.

Canada's spy service tracked the flow of its intelligence reports across government and studied how other agencies handled them as part of an investigation into leaks of classified information about foreign interference, a newly released memo shows. 

The Canadian Security Intelligence Service described the "tireless efforts" in the memo prepared for staff who were keen for an update on the probe into unauthorized disclosures to the media.
