Wanted now Sculpture Teams

WANTED: NOVA SCOTIA SNOW SCULPTING TEAMS
FOR WINTERLUDE 2010



Annual national competition in Canada’s Capital Region

seeks representatives from Nova Scotia



Canada’s Capital Region ¾ The National Capital Commission (NCC) is seeking applications from teams from Nova Scotia to represent their province in Winterlude 2010’s National Snow Sculpture Competition in Canada’s Capital. Teams compete for awards and prizes with a total value of $10,500. The deadline to submit applications has been extended to Thursday, December 31, 2009.



To date Nova Scotia is not represented in the annual competition that sees teams of up to three members from each province and territory transform blocks of snow measuring

3.7 m wide x 3.7 m deep x 4.9 m high (12 feet x 12 feet x 16 feet) into works of art. The theme for this year’s competition is “Winter Fun!” Each participating team will be asked to create a work of art that represents the joys and excitement that winter brings to Canadians each year — including physical and sporting activities, games, and traditions.



The competition will take place from February 9 to 13, 2010, in Canada’s Capital Region. Transportation, accommodation and meals are provided to participating snow sculpting team members. The brochure and application form are available on the NCC’s website on the Sun Life Snowflake Kingdom page.



Teams interested in competing or seeking more information are encouraged to contact Lyne Bérard, Program Assistant, National Snow Sculpture Competition, at 613-239-5058 or lyne.berard@ncc-ccn.ca, as soon as possible.



The 32nd edition of Winterlude will take place from February 5 to 21, 2010. Each year, this family-oriented event attracts more than 600,000 visitors to Canada’s Capital Region. For further information, members of the public may visit Winterlude.gc.ca.

BECAUSE MEN ARE JUST BIG BABIES, THAT'S ALL:

Now there's scientific evidence to back up the universal belief among women that a man with a cold is just a big whining baby. According to a report in WebMD, researchers at England's University of Glasgow studied nearly 1,700 people and found that men are more likely than women to overrate their common cold symptoms. The researchers theorize that men and women have different thresholds for perceiving and reporting symptoms, rather than actual differences in symptoms. Meaning, women take a couple of pills and go about their business. Men stay in bed groaning and moaning a lot while insisting that they are surely dying.

Please take a moment to check out the video below, it will make you chuckle.

Samantha Robichaud

Samantha Robichaud's story has touched the hearts of Nova Scotians.

Samantha is the 14 year old girl featured on the front page of the Sunday Herald.

She has bone cancer, the same type Terry Fox had,and a very tough fight ahead of her.

But it's the struggles she has already faced that has made her story so sad.

Her stepfather is her primary caregiver.

Money is tight and Samantha has taken the bus to the city by her self to receive treatment.

And she only has a grade six education because she has often had to stay home to care for her siblings.

Samantha' stepdad, Garnet Thacker, tells CTV the attention she has received since her story ran in the paper has been good for her.

Those wishing to support Samantha may send donations to a bank account that’s been set up at the RBC branch at the Halifax Shopping Centre. The account number is 03353 5208454 and is in the name ITF Samantha Robichaud.

Lamb lollipops seared with Dijon and roasted garlic and finished with a Rickards Dark and maple au jus

Tasting Notes: the strength of character in Rickards Dark pairs very well with flavourful proteins like lamb. The Dijon maple glaze matches the sweet finish of this maple porter.

Ingredients: makes 14-16 appetizer pieces



2 frenched racks of lamb – trimmed clean to the bone- each cut into 7-8 chops (lollipops)

2 whole bulbs of garlic

3 tbsp EVO (Extra Virgin Olive oil)

3 tbsp aged balsamic

2 tbsp Dijon mustard

3 tbsp maple syrup

½ cup Rickards Dark

Salt and pepper to season



Method:

· Pre heat oven to 425 F

· Cut the tops of the garlic bulbs – drizzle with 1 tbsp of the oil – wrap in foil and roast for 20 minutes, remove garlic from husk and mash to a paste

· Season the lamb with salt and pepper, then mash some of the garlic on each lollipop

· Sear the lamb on high heat both sides, cooking for about 2 minutes per side, remove and keep warm under foil

· Deglaze the pan with the Rickards Dark – scrape up any bits that may be present

· Add the Dijon, maple and balsamic – reduce heat to medium and cook down until the liquid forms a light glaze.

· Brush lamb with glaze and serve as finger food for your next party with a cold pint of Distinction – Rickards Dark!

Thanks to Chef Richard for joining us on the air this morning and providing these wonderful recipes...

Rihanna's new tattoo!

Monday night Rihanna paid a visit to one of her favorite New York City tattoo parlors, East Side Ink, to add another tattoo to her ever growing collection.

So what did RiRi get?

‘Never a failure, always a lesson,’ but written backwards" so she could read it in the mirror.

Rihanna says ‘It’s kind of my motto in life for everything.’ Instead of considering things to be mistakes, considering them lessons.”

Lady Ga Ga meets the Queen

In a Elizabethan-style dress and with her eyes painted red, Lady GaGa met the Queen last night... after TONING DOWN her act.

And, to be fair, the controversial pop star did try pretty hard to observe a bit of royal protocol.

There were no wardrobe malfunctions as she ditched her usual skimpy outfits for a cover-all outfit - even if it was scarlet and plastic.

And she also dropped her distinctly unregal "suicide act" in which she pretends to stab herself and is covered in fake blood.

Although on that one she didn't have much choice after being officially BANNED from performing it in front of the Queen.

So all in all it turned out to be a relatively tame Royal Variety Performance in Blackpool as the 23-year-old New Yorker graciously accepted a crash course in etiquette before being allowed to shake hands with Her Majesty.

A source said: "She was told to say Ma'am... and not to speak until she was spoken to."

Now here's a Christmas Gift!!

We received this e-mail and this photo this morning from Jackie:

Good Morning,
I heard you talking earlier about giving gift cards / cash to your significant other for Christmas. I thought I would send this along. This picture is one of the presents I received from my significant other last Christmas. I thought it was quite creative he wrapped it himself, even curled the ribbons, and the fifty was the card. Needless to say I was very careful when I unwrapped this gift.

I copied the picture from my Facebook page so hopefully you can open it.

Have a great Christmas

Justice, the HR Police Horse Passes Away

We received this email Wednesday morning from Halifax Regional Police

For Immediate Release
Halifax Regional Police
Media Release
December 2, 2009 (9:40 a.m.)


Justice the Police Horse (Retired) Passes Away

Halifax Regional Police is saddened to announce the recent passing of
its retired police horse, Justice the Protector. He served with Halifax
Regional Police from 1993 to 2006, and had five different riders. He was
retired on July 1, 2006 at HRM’s Canada Day celebrations and was
adopted by a loving family who provided a home for him for the past
three years.

Justice was very community-minded over the years. He led the region’s
Natal Day Parade for 12 years, participated in the Children’s Wish
Foundation Parade and the Apple Blossom Parade as well as the Run for
the Cure, Terry Fox Run, Kermesse, Special Olympics, Law Enforcement
Torch Run and, of course, Police Week.

He also did segments on television for Court TV, Careers Television and
Beyond the Badge, but was most famous for being photographed as he
sauntered through the McDonald’s drive-thru for a refreshing treat of
ice cream!

Justice helped to keep the streets of HRM safe for over a decade, with
his riders issuing tickets under the Liquor Control Act and Motor
Vehicle Act. Overall, he was a true asset to Halifax Regional Police and
provided a great service to the citizens of HRM.

Justice, who was 23-years-old, passed away last month due to health
complications.

A very creative way to create breast cancer awareness.

Here is an e-mail we were forwarded and wanted to share with you....

Our daughter-in-law, Emily (MacInnes) Somers, created, directed and choreographed this in Portland, Oregon last week for her Medline glove division as a fundraiser for breast cancer awareness. This was all her idea to help promote their new pink gloves. I don't know how she got so many employees, doctors and patients to participate, but it started to really catch on and they all had a lot of fun doing it.

When the video gets 1 million hits, Medline will be making a huge contribution to the hospital, as well as offering free mammograms for the community. Please check it out. It's an easy and great way to donate to a wonderful cause, and who hasn't been touched by breast cancer?

Where Did the Dollar Go?

"Have you ever heard about the three men that were out on the town? After having consumed more drink than they should, they decided to wear it off by staying overnight in a hotel. The desk clerk charged them $30.00 for the room. Shortly afterwards the desk clerk realized that he had overcharged the three men by $5.00. He calls the Bell Boy over, gives him the $5.00 and explains to him that he had overcharged the three men and asked him to go up and give them the $5.00. On his way up, the Bell Boy thinks they will be happy to get a refund so why don't I give them each $1.00. They will be happy and I will have picked up $2.00. But when he does that and gives each man $1.00, that means they only paid $9.00 each for the room, which is a total of $27.00; plus the $2.00 the Bell Boy pocketed is a total of $29.00. But they gave the desk clerk $30.00! Where did the extra $1.00 go??"

Answer:


This is sort of a trick question, but it usually takes people a surprisingly long time to get it. The trick is the word "plus". In reality, the $2 should be subtracted from (not added to) the $27 to get $25 paid for the room. There is no missing dollar.

Help Send These Kids to the World Juniors

The Dartmouth Whalers Novice Intermediate hockey team, coached by Ray Boudreau, is looking for your votes to help send them to the World Junior Hockey Championships this December 27, 28 and 29.

The Tim-BR MART World Junior Hockey Video Challenge offers hockey teams a chance to win a trip to Saskatoon to attend the event. To enter, teams make a video and upload it on the contest website – then promote it for votes.

When hockey Dad, Craig Moore was told of the opportunity, he thought it was a way he could contribute to his son’s hockey experience saying, “I can’t skate but I can make videos.” Moore operates Spider Video, a Halifax-based video production company specializing in web-based video.

Boudreau, who also has a son on the team, thought the video contest, win or loose was a great opportunity for his players saying, “Developing hockey players is not just about skill development but also building a team approach to the game.” He adds, “Making the video was a fun experience and they all feel really proud about what they accomplished.”

The team is looking to their community to get behind them by voting for their video, Moore says, “We only have until November 21, when the contest closes, to generate votes so we’re hoping everyone will get behind “The Future of Hockey” and vote as much as possible.” Individual IP addresses can vote once every four hours and voters must select “five stars” to generate the highest possible rating.

You can see the video and vote for the kids by clicking on the link below.

THIS YEAR'S MUST-HAVE HOLIDAY GIFT IS SOMETHING CALLED THE ZHU ZHU PET

What do Cabbage Patch Kids, Tickle-Me Elmo and the Furby all have in common?


--At one point or another, they were all must-have holiday gifts . . . and it was almost impossible to get your hands on them.


--Well, this year's must-have holiday toy seems to be something called Zhu Zhu Pets. Basically, they're little, motorized hamsters that zoom around a hamster "funhouse," complete with slides, ramps and tunnels. (???)


(--If you need a visual demonstration, check out an ad for Zhu Zhu Pets here . . .)

ZHU ZHU PETxt


--Anyway, Zhu Zhu Pets were first released last month and they've been flying off the shelves. It's gotten to the point that the Zhu Zhu Pets, which sell for $8 at Wal-Mart, are fetching as much as $30 when resold on Amazon.com.

Daddy's Little Girl

Dear Breakfast Club,

My wife and I need some help settling a dispute that has been bothering us for a while now and we've both decided we'll go with whatever decission the majority of your listeners decide.

Here it goes: our 28-year-old daughter has been away from home for five years, and my wife and I do what we can to support her.

She has a steady job . . . but we give her money when she needs it . . . and on top of that, we're still paying her car insurance.

We're happy to help her, but we know she wastes a lot of her money when she goes out with her friends.

Here's the question. At what age should you cut off your kids financially? Is our daughter too old for her parents to still be helping her?

She's on vacation and out of the city and the radio this week so we're hoping you'll read our letter while she can't hear it.

Signed,

The Parents

Cosmetics in your Kitchen

Here are a few insights to beauty that our ancestors probably used daily. You have a health spa right in your kitchen:

Coffee- Brunettes and red heads- final rinse your hair with black coffee, leave it on. You'll love the shine.

Cornmeal- Mix half a cup of cornmeal and one tablespoon of salt. It's an excellent dry shampoo. Sprinkle it in your hair and brush out the dirt and oil.

Lemon Juice- Dry up a blemish- a little dab will do a few times a day.

Nails- Mix half cup of lemon juice and one cup of warm water. Soak for about five minutes. Rinse, pat dry, and then rub a little piece of the peel across your nails and buff.

Strawberries- Mash them up and brush your teeth. They remove yellowing and stains.

Vinegar- Add apple cider vinegar to warm water in a spray bottle. Spray your face once a day. It restores the ph balance.

Petroleum jelly- While your face is wet add a little of this and keep adding water until your face is covered. Adding water makes it non-greasy.

Oatmeal- Use equal amounts of dry oatmeal and water. Make a paste. Apply it to your face. When it feels tight and dry, rub it off, and then rinse. This removes dead skin and blackheads.

Cream Deodorant- Mix together: two teaspoons of baking soda, two teaspoons petroleum jelly and two teaspoons of talcum powder. Mix and heat in double boiler until a smooth cream forms. Place finished cream in an airtight jar.

Bread and Milk- Soak a piece of bread in milk and put it on your blemishes at night with a band-aid. They will be gone by morning.

Can you add any not mentioned here? Post it!

DO'S & DON'TS OF NEW FALL TRENDS

From adventurous, rebellious fall styles to updating the classics in your wardrobe, here's Glamour's list of Do's and Don'ts for fall fashion trends:


DO:


Try a softer take on the biker-babe look. Bomber jackets and motorcycle boots are everywhere this fall. But unless you own a Harley, skip the head-to-toe leather.
Try over-the-knee boots. Thigh-high boots are back and are a total DO, as long as you don't pair them with a teeny mini skirt. Pull 'em over jeans instead.
Embrace the season's hot colors. Swap out your dark winter coat for a bright color.
Go monotone. Wearing one color head-to-toe gives the illusion of being taller.
Do mix your prints. Mix patterned basics and wear with simple black tights.

DON'T:


Pair boxy pants with a baggy top. You can wear boxy pants, but match them with a pair of heels and slim-fitting, tucked-in top. Don't go baggy all over!
Overdo the neon. Keep it simple and don't wear neons with other bright shades.


Oprah devoted her entire show yesterday to Fall Fashion. There were many interventions check it out at her website.

The Worst Spouse?

Here's a letter from Anonymous

I’m the worst spouse. I’ve been feeling badly lately, my wife doesn’t stop from morning ‘til night. She’s busy in the morning getting the kids up and fed and ready for school, gets herself ready for work, works all day and then comes home, makes dinner, cleans up, helps the kids with homework and works around the house until she falls into bed. She’s busy every moment it seems. I on the other hand have trouble taking care of myself. I watch sports all weekend and during the week I’m done after a days work….. I don’t know why she puts up with me.
