Spec website articles are all truncated for me

Does anyone else have this issue? I have an online subscription to the Spec and every article appears as just a few lines. For example, I just tried to read an article about the weekend fire at the mobster's house on the Brow, and all it says is, "A suspicious overnight fire tore through a Hamilton Mountain brow home with connections to the mob. Crews were called to 52 Mountain Brow Blvd. around 1:30 a.m. Monday morning. Property records show the house is owned by Rocco Luppino."

Surely, there's got to be more to the article than that?! I can't see a way to make the entire article appear. If this is how the website is going to appear now, I'll be cancelling my subscription since I can't read much of the news like this!

Can we talk about hair changes?!

I have naturally curly hair, but for the last year or two (am 48), my curls have changed. They used to be bouncy and voluminous and now I feel like they're wiry and blah no matter what I do. My tried & trusted products don't work the same any more and despite trying what seems like every product under the sun, nothing wows me. I'm at the point where I'm just gonna straighten my hair all the time rather than keep trying to have curls that just disappoint me. RIP, curls.

UPDATE - I was randomly finally able to submit the rest of my HST. No rhyme or reason to this - I did the exact same thing I've been doing all day. What a pain in the ass.

I'm self employed, so I have to remit my HST to CRA. I choose to do it quarterly. Yesterday I went in to enter my numbers and it wouldn't accept my reporting dates. I know I was entering the right dates, so I gave up and went over to submit my payment since it was due yesterday (I have until June 15 to actually file my first quarter HST). Yesterday it accepted a payment of $2999 on my debit Mastercard (my daily withdrawal limit is $3K and I'm not sure if it was CRA or my bank who wouldn't allow a $3K payment). I still owe $125. I've tried at least 4 times this morning to submit the balance and the website keeps declining the transaction. It's not my bank - I was just at the grocery store and used my debit card without issue. The earliest date I can schedule a withdrawal for is May 8th, which is ridiculous as I shouldn't have to potentially incur interest when their website won't take my payment. I bank with Simplii, so I can't go into a branch, and I refuse to pay some third party to "allow" me to pay at Canada Post. Any tricks to get them to accept my payment through debit Mastercard? I'm certain it's not an issue of them only allowing one payment per 24 hours as I've made multiple payments on the same day in the past.
