Matt Sayles, Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — BEYONCE'S SURPRISE DATE: Beyonce made a big announcement that practically upstaged the MTV Video Music Awards — and she did it without saying a word.
The 29-year-old superstar announced her pregnancy on the red carpet by cupping her stomach in an "I'm expecting" sort of way. Wearing a blond ponytail and flowing red gown, she used her hands to show the tiniest beginnings of a baby bump.
A publicist for the pop star confirmed the pregnancy to The Associated Press Sunday.
Beyonce and Jay-Z were married in 2008. This will be their first child together.
Jay-Z offered a (much smaller) surprise of his own Sunday: He performed alongside Kanye West on the VMA stage.
Beyonce took the stage herself later in the show, telling viewers, "I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me."
At the end of her performance, she unbuttoned the sequined blazer she was wearing and rubbed her tummy on stage. The camera cut away to Jay-Z, who beamed a broad smile.
RECORD ADVERTISEMENT: Lil Wayne is taking advantage of his Video Music Awards performance by dropping his anticipated new album the very same night.
The tattooed rapper closed the Video Music Awards with tunes from his new album as an ad blinked on the bottom of the screen reading: "Be the first to download 'Tha Carter IV' on iTunes."
The album was to be released digitally at midnight on Aug. 29 and in stores later that day.
"There's only one man brilliant enough to piece this plan together," rapper Drake said as he introduced Lil Wayne.
Fellow rapper Rick Ross called Wayne's strategically timed album release "big for hip hop."
"The strategic moves we've been seeing in the last few months, from the release of "Watch the Throne" and the pop-up stores, etcetera, I think it's big for hip hop and it's only going to continue to open doors for biggest numbers and bigger profits and a bigger future," Ross said.
WHAT A DRAG: It was ladies' night at the Video Music Awards, as Katy Perry, Adele, Beyonce and Lady Gaga were among the top nominees and winners. But Gaga, and later Nicki Minaj, were also tuned into their masculine sides.
Gaga opened MTV's Video Music Awards dressed in drag as her male alter-ego, Jo Calderone, who sports short dark hair and smokes constantly. She/he sat down at the piano and performed Gaga's latest single, "You and I."
The envelope-pushing artist (who wore a dress made of meat to last year's VMAs) remained dressed as Calderone throughout the night. After accepting the award for best female video for "Born This Way," Calderone came into a backstage press room smoking a cigarette and drinking what looked like whiskey. She stamped the cigarette out on the carpet before posing for photos.
Asked what she can express as Calderone that she can't as Gaga, she replied, "I don't understand the question." She said Gaga asked Calderone to come in her stead, saying, "If you love me, you'll go and you'll get in that spotlight."
"So I did," said Calderone, describing himself as a guy from New Jersey whose family hails from Palermo, Italy.
"I'm not a singer or a model or an actor or anything. I'm a guy," she said. "I'm just a guy, you know, and I just wanted to show my girl how much I love her, that's all."
Earlier in the evening, Nicki Minaj, winner of the hip-hop video award, said her new album will feature her inner male artist, Roman.
"He's a boy that lives inside of me," Minaj said. "He's a lunatic and he's gay."
BRITNEY TRIBUTE: Britney Spears has made many memorable appearances at the Video Music Awards (that liplock with Madonna, dancing with a snake to "Slave 4 U"), and she was honored for them with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.
Lady Gaga, dressed in drag as her male alter-ego, presented the Moon Man trophy to a smiling Spears.
"One of my biggest inspirations was Britney Spears," Gaga said. "Britney taught me how to be fearless. She taught us all how to be fearless. She's a pop-music legend and the industry would not be the same without her."
Gaga's male Jo Calderone character then lingered, apparently hoping for a kiss from Spears, but Spears demurred.
"I've done that already," she said.
Dancers performed a tribute to a medley of Spears' most popular songs, iconic outfits and signature dance moves.
"This award means so much to me," she said. "Especially on the night before Michael Jackson's birthday. He had such a huge influence on me."
But other celebs at the Video Music Awards said Spears was their big influence, including teen superstars Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber.
"She's been a huge inspiration to me," Gomez said. "I just think that she doesn't really take no for an answer. A lot of people try to bring her down and maybe judge her too quickly, and she still makes a comeback and she's still hot."
Bieber called Spears "an icon," saying, "She opened the doors for young people to do what they love."

Luiz Felipe Scolari insists his future as Brazil coach is out of his hands following a dismal end to the side's FIFA World Cup campaign.
Scolari was bullish in his post-match media conference on Saturday after watching Brazil lose 3-0 to the Netherlands in the third-place play-off in Brasilia, claiming his team had played well throughout the tournament and were on the right track.
In charge of the national team for their last World Cup triumph in 2002, Scolari returned for a second spell at the helm in 2012.
After FIFA Confederations Cup victory last year had raised hopes among Brazilians, Scolari's men failed to deliver over the past month in front of their passionate support under the immense pressure of an expectant home nation.
The manner of Brazil's demise in the tournament was the most stunning aspect, with a 7-1 humiliation in the semi-final against Germany swiftly followed by a limp performance and defeat to the Dutch.
With speculation surrounding Scolari's future mounting, the 65-year-old declared that the decision is not up to him but stubbornly refused to quit.
"I leave my future to the CBF [Brazilian Football Confederation] president to decide," he said.
Scolari added: "I've managed in three World Cups. I've finished among the top four teams every time."
Apart from winning the 2002 tournament in South Korea/Japan, Scolari led Portugal to fourth at Germany 2006 before matching that feat this year.
The former Chelsea manager claimed he had "nothing" to say about his side's loss to the Dutch, while he argued Brazil had played well at the Estadio Nacional.
"We did not play badly, in my opinion," Scolari said.
"It was to be a more balanced game but we conceded a goal early on. I think the players deserve to be appreciated for what they did."
Scolari continued by asserting that the majority of his team at Brazil 2014 could challenge for the world title in Russia in four years time.
"It will go down as a generation who finished in the top four," he said.
"What the CBF have to do is keep working, providing the technical conditions and ensuring the players who are young can keep improving."

from the NHLPA,
Michael Peca announced his retirement today from the National Hockey League after 13 NHL seasons….
"I truly have enjoyed my entire career as an NHL player," said Peca. "Playing the game at the highest level, with and against the top hockey players in the world, has been a pleasure. Throughout my 13-season career I was fortunate to play on some exceptional hockey teams, particularly the 2002 Canadian Olympian team and the Sabres and Oilers teams that reached the Cup finals. Really I am grateful for the lasting friendships and memories that the game of hockey has given me, and I would like to thank my family, teammates, and the fans for all their support along the way."

|Giant Oak Golf Club - Eighteen Course -- Giant Oak playable for all
|Review by: Yards
|Giant Oak is a course that can be enjoyed by players of all skill levels. Though not particularly long, the par 3's are extremely difficult when played from the blues. All greens are quick and most have some slope. The fairways are mostly tree-lined yet not to the degree that will punish an errant tee shot. I've played this course from February though October and found that there is always a steady breeze. This allows the course to be playable after significant rainfall. There are limited cart paths which means that carts can generally go anywhere. Prices are reasonable. Staff is friendly. Good scramble and outing course. Nice banquet facility.

|Wyandotte Shores -- Swing and a miss...
|Review by: Balbsy
|Wyandotte Shores is a struggle of sort. It is a nine hole course that "everyone" can play. This course did have nice greens, that is until they rid themselves (in 2003) of the one individual that kept the course in good playing condition. Now, Wyandotte Shores enjoys a seemingly annual fungus that has all but destroyed the greens. Drainage is another problem; it is poor. Pace of play is an issue; expect (in many instances) to spend a minimum 2.5 hours completing the 9 holes. And when I say everyone can play, I include those that show up in jeans, tanktops and work boots, utilizing their buddy's clubs (and beer) to hammer away at the ball with no sense of what they're doing or any care from management, whose only concern was to take the money and release them onto the property with no afterthought. For those who enjoy and respect this game, and until management makes the much-needed effort, avoid this tract.

It would have been big enough news Tuesday for Microsoft to unveil its new Xbox One, but the software giant also announced that Steven Spielberg will serve as executive producer for a new live-action Halo TV series available on the console.
Halo debuted back in 2001 from Microsoft and Bungie, but is now handled by 343 Studios, which created the most recent installment Halo 4. The franchise revolves around Master Chief and his gang of space marines as they take on aliens with less than noble intentions for humanity. Details about the series itself are scarce, but expect lots of big guns, armor and exploding aliens.

Canada Wins Nations' Cup in Wellington, Florida
| Print |
March 5, 2010 – The Canadian Show Jumping Team claimed victory in the $75,000 Nations' Cup, Presented by CN, held Friday night, March 5, in Wellington, FL.
The Canadian Team comprised of Mac Cone of King City, ON, Yann Candele of Nobleton, ON, Beth Underhill of Schomberg, ON, and anchor rider Eric Lamaze of Schomberg, ON, won the event with a total of 5 faults. Mexico finished second with a final score of 13 faults while Ireland was third with 29 faults. The home team of the United States finished fourth with 31 faults.
A total of 11 countries contested this year's Nations' Cup team event, the only one held in the United States. Canada completed the first round of competition with a perfect score of zero and incurred only five faults in the second round to secure victory in front of 8,300 fans, including a raucous Canadian cheering section. The win marked the fifth victory for Canada since the event's inception in 2002. Canada has won the Nations' Cup in Wellington more than any other country.
"Wellington is our town, we have been extraordinarily lucky here the past few years," said Terrance 'Torchy' Millar, chef d'equipe of the Canadian Show Jumping Team. "We try hard for this event. We have a lot of fans that come down from Canada for this event. We put our best foot forward, and we had four great riders here tonight."
In the first round, lead-off rider Cone incurred four faults at the final obstacle riding Larry Evoy and Sara Houstoun' s Ole, his mount at the 2008 Olympic Games where Canada claimed Team Silver. Cone's would prove to be the drop score as teammates Candele, Underhill and Lamaze all produced clear rounds.
In a format that sees only three riders from each country return for the second round with all scores to count, Candele led off the second round for Canada. Riding Pitareusa, a 13-year-old Dutch Warmblood mare owned by Susan Grange, Candele again produced a clear round. It would prove to be the only double clear round of the evening.
"It was the first Nations' Cup for her, and it was super that she was double clear doing two rounds back-to-back at this level," said Candele who made his Nations' Cup debut for Canada last year in Wellington, FL, when Canada was also victorious. "The competition was at a high level, with even more teams and more competition than last year."
Underhill incurred four faults in the second round, dropping a rail at the 'c' element of the triple combination riding Top Gun, a 10-year-old grey Dutch Warmblood gelding owned by Iron Horse Farm.
As the final rider to tackle Anthony D'Ambrosio's course, Lamaze could have two rails down and still secure the victory for Canada. It was a cushion the Olympic Champion did not require however, as he left all the rails in place, incurring only one time fault for exceeding the time allowed.
"Ronaldo was even better in the second round than in the first; he was actually a little bit spooky in the first round," said Lamaze of the 12-year-old Dutch Warmblood gelding owned by Ashland Stables. "Even though this was only his first Nations' Cup, I have been riding this horse for a few years and I know him well."
Lamaze, currently ranked the number two rider in the world, summed up the Canadian victory by saying, "All of the Canadian horses were outstanding and all of the Canadian riders were outstanding. It was a great night for us, it was great sport, and we had great results."

My daughter absolutely loves this and would highly recommend it...,
This review is from: Inkheart (Inkheart Trilogy) (Paperback)
My daughter read this at 10 and absolutely loved this book. I confess that I read it first and enjoyed it but found it rather heavy going and long (needed more editing in my opinion). But when my daughter picked it up she didn't put it down for days until she'd finished it. She said she found it completely exciting, she loved the story and the characters and has gone on to read and love the rest of the trilogy. She said that they were books she didn't want to end....

Melissa Gilbert's 'Dancing with the Stars' Injury Explained
Karina Smirnoff has offered some details on what led to Melissa Gilbert being taken to a hospital in the middle of "Dancing with the Stars" April 9 show. Met backstage, the pro dancer told media reps that the 47-year-old actress complained about dizziness and feeling lightheaded after hitting her head on the ballroom floor during her routine.
It was further reported that Melissa was so weakened that fellow contestant Gavin DeGraw had to carry her down from the stage's elevated "red room" and out of the studio. She was put on a stretcher and taken away in an ambulance with her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy following her.
A source additionally told Xfinity that a neck brace was put on the "Little House on the Prairie" star, while she was still in the white and golden dress she donned during her performance with Maks. "Her entourage surrounded her in a worried group," the source went on dishing.
That night, Melissa and Maks danced the paso doble. The Ukraine-born pro dancer had a slip and fell to the floor while he was about to spin his partner. Later on the show, host Tom Bergeron announced that Melissa was taken to a hospital for a precaution. However, he didn't explain the nature of her injury and said an update on her condition will be provided on Tuesday results show.

I went there because the dealership takes pride in quality so I though these people gotta be good and they recommended me to go to them. I have an Infiniti g35. And the left panel of the driver seat was a bit broke and worn off. I have interior leather. Talked to Oliver and he knew what was needed. And he talked to Murf who was the one that did the job. Murf is a superstar. He did a very professional job. He matched the color that its difficult to difference there was am added new panel on the seat. It looks like new. The timing was perfect. They told me it would take about three hours and in 2 hours 40 mins I came back and Murf said: Want to take a look at your car. And I felt in love with my car eve more. I will come back here if I need to even if I need to drive an hour. I recommend you do the same. Hope this helps.������������

Terrorist Attack in Turkey kills at least 10 People0 comments - published on Tuesday, June 28, 2016
10 dead after explosions at Turkey's largest airport, Istanbul Ataturk: Media reports
International Al-Quds day was founded by Ruholla Khomeini, the barbarous Islamic Dictator who high jacked the Iranian revolution of 1979 and was responsible for the arrest, torture and summary execution of thousands of political dissidents.
Khomeini's Islamic Regime continues to reign terror on its own people, sponsor terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah and has been trying for years to acquire nuclear weapons. Not surprisingly Islamic extremists and supporters of terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah and people who have zero regard for human rights and dignity rally on Al-Quds day every year by holding up pictures of Khomeini and flags of outlawed terrorist organizations.
They go on to praise the Islamic dictator Khomeini who is responsible for torture and murder of thousands of Iranians while they openly call for the destruction of Israel. Recently it was brought to my attention that Independent Jewish Voice, an organization that claims to be "human rights organization" has been actively participating in Al-Quds Day for the past several years and also had a speaker at the Memorial of Khomeini in May of this year.
I am very disappointed to see a group that recognizes itself as a human rights group turn a blind eye to the plight of millions of Iranian people suffering under the current Islamic Dictatorship, while praising Khomeini the founder of that dictatorship.
I call on all human rights and pro-democracy organizations and activists to join together and say No To Al-Quds Hate Rally in Toronto and anywhere else in Canada. I urge you to stand with the people of Iran in their fight for a democratic and secular Iran, rather than standing with the dictators that are responsible for the oppression of millions of Iranians.

June 20th-International Day in Solidarity with Political Prisoners in Iran0 comments - published on Monday, June 20, 2016
Unfortunately in the last 7 years things in Iran have become worse not better and the brutal prisons in Iran are still full with political prisoners. Today gives us an opportunity to stand in solidarity with all Iranian Political Prisoners and demand their immediate and unconditional freedom. The Islamic Regime in Iran must be held accountable for their brutal human rights violations.
Today we remember Jafar Azimzadeh, Zeynab Jaliliyan, Habibollah Latifi, Mohammad Sadiq Kaboudvand and so many others who have suffered at the hands of the Islamic Regime. We stand with them in their fight for a free and democratic Iran.
Book Review: Scapegoats-How Islamophobia Helps Our Enemies and Threatens Our Freedoms: By Arsalan Iftikhar0 comments - published on Sunday, June 19, 2016
I found Arsalan Iftikhar's book "Scapegotas" both fascinating and challenging to read, as while at some parts I found myself nodding and agreeing with Mr. Iftikhar in other parts of the book I found myself shaking my head and coming up with counter arguments.
In his book Mr. Iftikhar makes some excellent points about scapegoating of minorities by the government and social/ethnic majorities both historically and currently in the United Stated and in other countries in the world. I found his discussion on historic scapegoating of African Americans, Japanese Americans and Jewish Americans and its comparison to today's scapegoating of the Muslim American Community compelling.
As written by Martin Luther King in 1963 and referenced by Mr. Iftikhar " Injustice anywhere is threat to justice everywhere." Mr. Iftikhar certainly does an excellent job of outlining the dangers of scapegoating minorities and its effects on society in large.
Where I found myself disagreeing with Mr. Iftikhar was the notion of "victim blaming" (at least that's the way I read it) of victims of Islamic Terrorism. A clear example is Mr. Iftikhar's clear reference to the terror rampage of Charlie Hebdo in January of 2015.
Mr. Iftikhar references the publication of "offensive" Muhammad Cartoon on a number of occasions including on page 108 where he states" But Charlie Hebdo's mean-spirited cartoons against the Muslim faith simply brought shrugs, or chuckles, from France's culturally savvy liberal champagne class." There are similar references throughout the book.
Based on what Mr. Iftikhar wrote about Charlie Hebdo terror it appears he almost believes the magazine brought the terror attack on themselves by publishing pictures of Muhammad which may have been offensive to some or even many Muslims worldwide.
While I found this aspect of his book somewhat controversial as a lawyer, blogger and a pro-democracy activist with a focus in the Middle East I found "Scapegoats" to be a worthwhile read dealing with both issues of Islalmophobia and the scapegoating of minorities both historically and currently and would recommend it to anyone with interests in these topics.

Canadian Professor Homa Hoodfar Arrested in Iran- Canada MUST Take Action Now!0 comments - published on Thursday, June 09, 2016
According to news reports from CBC Ms. Hoodfar was in Iran conducting historical and ethnographic research on women's role in the public.
Amanda Ghahremani, Ms. Hoodfar's niece has told the CBC that Ms. Hoodfar was an academic conducting research; she was not a political activist and was in no way involved politically. Unfortunately Ms. Hoodfar is not the only Iranian Canadian arrested and imprisoned by the Islamic Regime in Iran. In 2003 Iranian Canadian photojournalist Zahra Kazemi was arrested and imprisoned in the notorious Evin Prison for taking pictures outside of the prison. She was brutally tortured and died as a result of torture.
Saeed Malekpour is another Iranian Canadian permanent resident who was arrested by the Islamic Regime in 2008 while visiting his ill father in Iran. He still remains imprisoned! While the Trudeau Government is seriously considering re-establishing diplomatic relations with the Islamic Regime in Iran, and re-opening their embassy in Ottawa, Islamic Regime continues to arrest and imprison Iranian-Canadian citizens and permanent residents.
If the Trudeau Government is determined to re-establish diplomatic relations at the very least it MUST implement serious checks and balances including making sure Human Rights issues including the rights of imprisoned Iranian Canadians are at the top of the discussion agenda.
Re-establishing diplomatic relations and re-opening the embassy before the establishment of serious pre-conditions, and without requiring the Islamic Regime to make any concessions, is nothing but turning a blind eye and giving the Regime the green light to continue with its systematic and wide spread human rights violations which are completely contrary to our fundamental Canadian values.

Iranian Gold Miners Flogged for Protesting Agasint Layoffs0 comments - published on Monday, June 06, 2016
Seventeen miners in northwestern Iran have been lashed on orders of the Judiciary after their employer sued them for protesting the firing of hundreds of their colleagues, the semi-official Iranian Labor News Agency (ILNA) reported on May 25, 2016.
Another Political Prisoner Mohammad Sadiq Kaboudvand, in Critical Condition after Hunger Strike!0 comments - published on Thursday, June 02, 2016
Mr. Kaboudvand has been imprisoned in Iran's notorious Evin Prison for over 9 years. While he has been approved for early release by prison officials the Prosecutor's refuse to approve his release and continue to bring false political charges against him in order to continue his imprisonment.
Mr. Kaboudvand was taken to the hospital on May 25th 2016 and is at risk for a heart attack. While in prison for the past 9 years he has suffered from two heart attacks and numerous other health issues. It's important to note Mr. Kaboudvand is not the only political prisoner who has recently gone on an extended hunger strike to protest against brutal human rights violations in Iran. Jafar Azimzadeh, a prominent labour activist has also been on hunger strike for over a month protesting against the systematic violations of the rights of Iranian workers.
I urge all human rights activists and organizations to stand in solidarity with Mr. Kaboudvand, Mr. Azimzadeh and all Iranian political prisoners and to make sure their voices are heard. Kurdish Political Prisoner Resumes Hunger Strike Despite Risk of Death
Islamic Regime in Iran brutally Flogs 17 Mine Workers!0 comments - published on Tuesday, May 31, 2016
At the same time the Islamic Regime will not allow workers to exercise their legal rights to peacefully protest or to unionize and demand their rights. A prominent labour worker Jafar Azimzadeh is currently serving a 6 year prison term, and has been on a hunger strike for more than 30 days to protest against the brutal treatment of Iranian workers.
Other workers are wrongfully imprisoned and now the Regime has taken on flogging workers for peacefully protesting in order to create an atmosphere of fear and terror! I urge all human rights activists and organizations as well as the Government of Canada to condemn Islamic Regimes systematic persecution of Iranian workers.

No to re-establishment of Canada-Iran Relations, No to re-opening of the Islamic Regime Embassy in Ottawa! Take Action Now!0 comments - published on Thursday, May 26, 2016
It is crucial at this time that we make sure our voices and concerns are heard both by the Canadian Government and the Canadian Media, which is why it is imperative for everyone of us to take the appropriate steps to make sure the Canadian Government hears our voices as loudly and clearly as the voices of Iranians who are lobbying for the re-establishment of relations and especially re-opening of the embassy. What can you do to make a difference?
1. Contact your local Member of Parliament and Provincial Member of Parliament by phone, email or by meeting them personally and speak to them about your concerns. Remember MP's and MPP's are generally very receptive and sensitive to the concerns of their constituents, so please take the time to contact them.
2. Contact the Office of the Prime Minister and the Office of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and voice your concerns both with respect to the human rights issues in Iran and any safety and security concerns you might have about the re-opening of the embassy.
3. Contact the Canadian Media! Tv, radio, print media as well as online media are excellent sources for bringing awareness about the human rights situation in Iran, raising concerns about Iran's support for international terrorism and concern for safety and security of Iranian Canadians and their families in Iran if the Embassy was to re-open. Take the time to contact reporters who have written or reported on this issue before.
4. Write English articles and share on online media as well as social media. Remember while Facebook and Twitter are excellent tools for raising awareness, to make a real difference we need to take our concerns to the Canadian Government and the Canadian Media. Please take the time to do so.
Together we can make a difference, please start taking action today!

Jafar Azimzadeh, Prominent Iranian Labour Activist on a 3 Week Hunger Strike!0 comments - published on Tuesday, May 24, 2016
In an open letter Mr. Azimzadeh co-authored with an imprisoned teacher activist Ismail Abdi they demanded the removal of the charge "associating and colluding with intent to act against national security" from the open files of all imprisoned protestors and activists including themselves.
Among Mr. Azimzadeh demands are the end to low and below poverty wages of workers in Iran, an end to the ban by the Regime to mark and celebrate International Workers Day as well as Teachers day as well as an end to the ban against forming independent labour unions.
Mr. Azimzadeh is currently imprisoned in the notorious Evin Prison and has been on a hunger strike which has greatly deteriorated his health.
The Islamic Regime in Iran must release all political prisoners immediately and unconditionally and it must stop violating the rights of workers & teachers immediately!
Canada must continue to hold Islamic Regime accountable for its systematic and brutal human rights violations and urge Iran to upheld the rights of its own citizen.

This was a guerilla campaign run by Cayenne Communications for fashion concept store SPRMRKT. A takeover of the Albert Heijn supermarket chain was staged in the form of an impromptu fashion show--a perfect concept for SPRMRKT's punk fashion.
Shoppers were not warned, and on the video you can see some really surprised faces. Models marched about the aisles--no doubt alarming strangers as they shopped for their toilet paper and cheese.
Implications - Modern consumers require more of a shock value to keep them interested. Products that feature an unconventional element are appealing to those who desire entertainment regardless of what they're doing. In order to stay on the cutting edge, companies could focus on integrating the most innovative aspects into their items.

Canada Day, a statutory (public) holiday: Canada turns 149!
Every July 1, Canadians commemorate their country's birthday. Canada turns 149 this year! In all provinces and territories, Canada Day is a statutory (public) holiday. Typically, employees do get Canada Day off with regular pay or public holiday pay (depending on the province or territory of employment). In the event employees are required to work on the public holiday, the employee must be paid regular wages and get a substituted day off with pay at a later date (again, this depends on the province or territory of employment).

At the June 2, 2016, Ontario Employment Law Conference, during the Q&A session, we received numerous questions on topics covered at the conference but could not address them all. From time to time, till the next conference, we will be posting and answering some of these questions on the blog.
Celebrating Canadian Multiculturalism Day

According to the Government of Canada, Canadian Multiculturalism Day is an opportunity to celebrate the country's diversity and its commitment to democracy, equality and mutual respect, and to appreciate the contributions of the various multicultural groups and communities to Canadian society.
Addressing the effect that two new proposed Ontario statutory leaves may have on your organization #learnthelatest
First Reference Talks readers and 2016 Employment Law Conference attendees were introduced to two new proposed leaves in Ontario, Employee Leave of Absence When Child Dies and Domestic and Sexual Violence Workplace Leave.

Human factors influencing safety in the workplace
Safety is expensive, but an accident is even more costly. All organizations, all business owners, all managers, supervisors and workers in all workplaces need to understand the effect of work performed on the human body and how we influence the demands of the work we do through human interaction. Both of these things relate to the correlation between the worker and the demands of the work they do, known as ergonomics and human factors.
National Aboriginal Day: Celebrating 20 years
On June 21, the summer solstice, National Aboriginal Day is celebrated in Canada. This day of recognition and celebration was established, in cooperation with Indigenous organizations, to honour the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.

My Mom gave me a gift certificate for a colonic for my birthday. I couldn't believe what a terrible present it was and thought maybe she had started to hate me - lol :-). I decided not to let the money go to waste and made the appointment. I was surprised: the whole experience was pleasant and relaxing. The therapist was really friendly and obviously very experienced at making people feel comfortable. The hour flew by. After the treatment I spent a little time in their waiting room sipping herbal tea (felt like I was in the tropics) and picked up a flyer on a new therapy called the Metatron. I have a chronic circulation issue that's caused me to be on medication for several years and I've been looking for a more holistic approach to understanding the underlying cause. This afternoon I went in for my first Metatron appointment and was utterly amazed. The system scans your body and gives information about biological imbalances. It immediately picked up on the precise location of my circulatory problem and pinpointed specific pathogens that were contributing to the condition. In short, it confirmed a lot of what I already knew from medical testing, but in addition gave me information on the root causes so that I can treat them. I've had 2 great experiences so far. I wouldn't recommend the place if you can't do stairs (there's no elevator and the stairs are steep) or if you're looking for a high-end luxurious place. Guess what mom's getting for her next birthday...

I had problems with my skin since I was a teenager,For years I went to a number of dermatologist just to receive some temporary relief but never satisfactory. I found Le Cachet Day Spa on Line, made an appointment just for a skin consultation, they examined my skin and suggested the facials I would need. Honestly I expected a facial around $75.00 I was told that I would just waist my money, since the facial I need is a customized facial, specially designed for my skin with two different treatments, the price is $300.00 after thinking a bit, I agreed. I have to admit that I am glad that I decided to proceed with my facial treatment . I remembered my father used to tell me, you always get what you pay for in this life, he was right like always. The facial I received was an intense treatment like I never had in any doctors office nor other spas. The aesthetician cleaned my skin using some kind of European deep cleansing techniques, it was a little bit painful, I could feel how my skin is being really cleaned. After she begin with a second treatment using an organic papaya and apricot enzyme peel. My facial lasted over an hour, with relaxing music in the background. I don't believe in miracles, but after the first treatment my skin had a tremendous visible improvement. It's over a week now, at work everyone realized that my skin got better.I am looking forward to my second appointment in 4 weeks. O Yes, I definitely highly recommend Le Cachet day spa.
I am an African American women, who was always told, that since our skin color we cannot have a successful laser hair removal. I also seen some news report where African American clients have been scarred by lasers during hair removal, and that kept me a way from doing it. I am so glad that I found Le Cachet Laser Hair removal center, I knew that in order to perform Laser hair removal for our skin it has to be laser specially designed for black skin. It is my last treatment and I have no hair nor any scaring. As a young women I had a problem with facial hair which contributed to my acne problem. At Le Cachet I felt from the very beginning that I am in good hands, I had a strong impression, that they knew what they are doing, they made me feel comfortable and secure. I had 5 treatments and I am pleased to see such a wonderful result. My laser hair removal being done by Larisa who is using a special YAG laser for black skin. I already recommended Le Cachet Laser Hair removal to my girlfriend. I also like the fact that the place is spotless clean, the staff is professional, I found them very ethical since they told me from the very beginning that I will need at least 6 treatments. In many other places they tell you, that most is 3 treatments you will need, don't believe in that , they just want you to start. I also very much recommend Le Cachet Laser Center.

How to listen to your teen
(or your middle schooler or grade schooler)
|Share on Facebook
|Share on Twitter
By Melissa Ford
Recently, I was contacted by Kit Nast, a psychology professor who is developing a website that focuses on success in school, success at work, and success in parenting. He asked if I would create a video for parents with teens; the video could offer any advice that parents might find helpful!
Thinking back on my own life with teens, I knew the topic I wanted to address - listening!
Regardless of your child's age, consider a unique style of listening that builds deeper, more meaningful connections with your child, and ensures your s/he will be heard.

The attraction and retention of talent continues to be at the heart of every media business. As agencies respond to digital development by choosing either to diversify their offering or to sharpen their focus on one key specialism, pressure to secure the best from a seemingly contracting pool of talent has never been so high. With the exposure of certain skill gaps leading to increased competitiveness for talent, the question is: how can you set yourself apart as an employer?
In this seminar, Ian Graham will provide an overview of the different financial incentives that can be utilised, reviewing both their commerciality and their measurability. Main focuses will include:
- Segmentation by employee
- Structured bonuses
- Equity incentives
Ian and Mike will be joined by Dinah Regan of Kingston Smith HR Consultancy, who will analyse the results of our recent employee benefits survey, whilst also looking at:
- The benefits most effective in motivating and engaging staff
- How to set a benefits strategy
- The expectations of prospective candidates
- How to get the competitive edge in the recruitment process
Date: Wednesday, 29 June 2016
Time: 5.30pm registration, 6pm start. Ends 7.15pm, followed by drinks and canapés
Speakers: Ian Graham - Partner - Kingston Smith; Mike Hayes - Partner - Kingston Smith; Dinah Regan - Senior Consultant – Kingston Smith HR Consultancy
Venue: Kingston Smith, Charlotte Building, 17 Gresse Street, London W1T 1QL

20 Years Ago: Porno For Pyros Release Their Ethereal Second Album 'Good God's Urge'
Inspired by the scenic Zuma Beach where Perry Farrell and Porno For Pyros recorded it, their atmospheric second album still sounds ocean-sized.
Inspired by the scenic Zuma Beach where Perry Farrell and Porno For Pyros recorded it, their atmospheric second album still sounds ocean-sized.
Against Me!, Jane's Addiction, Ween, Death Cab for Cutie, Brand New and many more will be playing one or both of the Riot Fest events in Chicago and Denver.
Nirvana often get credit for firing the first shots of the alternative revolution of the '90s, but it all began nearly a decade earlier with Jane's Addiction.
In the midst of the hair metal era, Perry Farrell, Dave Navarro and Jane's Addiction took to Hollywood's Sunset Strip to record their informal 1987 debut.
Dinosaur Jr. and Living Colour will join Perry Farrell and co. during a string of tour dates in July.
The album that kicked off the alternative '90s, 'Ritual de lo Habitual' changed everything.
Daytime temperatures hit 111 degrees, Nine Inch Nails played a one-and-a-half minute set and Jane's Addiction got into a fistfight on stage. It's July 18, 1991.
This year's festival takes place over Halloween weekend in New Orleans.
Festival season is upon us, and with it comes the onslaught of lineup reveals.
"It's music-centric, but it is inclusive of technology, film, theater and even the gastronomic arts. It's going to be the greatest thing I've ever done."

A new "wholesome" picture book by two Michigan-based authors aims to show children the benefits of having parents who openly carry handguns.
The authors of My Parents Open Carry say their goal is to provide "a wholesome children's book that reflects the views of the majority of the American people, ie that self-defence is a basic natural right and that firearms provide the most efficient means for that defence".
The book depicts a day in the life of the not-so-subtly named Strong family - Dick, Bea and daughter Brenna.
As the blue-eyed trio leave the house for a fun Saturday out, Dick and Bea "retrieve their handguns from the locked gun safe and check them to make sure they are loaded. They place the handguns in their holster ... in plain sight on their hips."
Going about their weekend chores, the pistol-packing pair bump into various townsfolk who admire their decision to "open carry", including neighbour Mr Wright.
"I see you are both packin' as usual, good for you," he says, cheerily. "You just never know when you might need to protect yourself and loved ones ... It's best to be prepared I always say."
Brian Jeffs, president of a pressure group called Michigan Open Carry, co-authored the book with Nathan Nephew, a founder of MOC.
On the MOC website, Jeffs sets out the benefits of displaying a large-calibre pistol while shopping and socialising.
"It's true that open carry has many advantages: a faster draw, a larger calibre handgun and greater round capacity; sure it's been shown to deter crime, and it is immensely more comfortable to carry in warm weather, but it is much more than that," he writes.
"Open carry brings gun ownership out of the closet. It shows your friends and neighbours, your state and your country that you are not afraid of taking on the responsibility of protecting yourself and the ones you love from evil."
The MOC website also carries a list of positive comments apparently from sources including James Towle, host of American Trigger Sports Network ("Outstanding, outstanding...every person should buy five copies of this book...") and Alan Korwin of gunlaws.com ("I love it...boy does this fill a vacuum!")
However, on Amazon, where the book is listed as a best-seller in the Government Books category, reviews appears mixed at best.
Tongue firmly in cheek, "Greeny" gives the book five stars.
"My kids need to know why daddy has a .38 strapped to his hip on the school run, in the supermarket, and at McDonald's, so this book is a god-send," he says.
"They need to know the peace of mind that comes from knowing you can gun down any bears, terrorists or argumentative store clerks/waitresses you might encounter when going about your day-to- day business."
Reviewer Malc McGookin also remains unconvinced.
"Your determination to interpret your 2nd Amendment as the right for every halfwit and their child to own and operate a firearm virtually without restriction is being paid for by the blood of innocents," he writes.
"You carry your guns because you are scared and gutless."
And "Kevin F" has a grammatical point to make: "By the way 'Open Carry' isn't a verb. And I'll stand my ground and shoot in the face anyone who pretends it is."
About 85 Americans are shot dead daily, 53 of them suicides. According to data from the FBI, in Michigan in 2012 there were 682 homicides, 78.59 per cent of which involved firearms.

This winter Tyler Perry presents a riotously funny and equally poignant stage play - The Haves and The Have Nots. The story follows the life of a wealthy family who has everything they need and most of what they want. The characters are often preoccupied with superficial things, until they are forced to become involved with their housekeeper. When the poverty-stricken maid is forced to ask for help, the family gets a chance to see how the other half lives. While coming to the rescue of the needy, it soon becomes painfully clear, who is really in need of saving. Don't miss Tyler Perry's "The Haves And The Have Nots," roaring into theaters this winter.
At The Lyric January 24th through 29th!
