That’s how much money Toronto TV station CBLT paid to broadcast the 1952 Grey Cup, the first time the game was on television. Only viewers in Ontario were able to watch the Toronto Argonauts beat the Edmonton Eskimos 21-11.

Would Shrek be cheering for the Saskatchewan Roughriders as they take on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on their home turf this weekend in the 101st Grey Cup? We’d like to think so, if only because they share the colour green. Local Rider fans sound off on their team on page 3, while we preview St. Albert Children’s Theatre’s production of Shrek: The Musical, which opens tonight, on page 21.

Rider Pride bleeds into St. AlbertGLENN COOKSt. Albert Leader

As the Grey Cup inches closer and closer this weekend, they’ll be coming out of the woodwork — faces painted green, flags in tow, possibly with watermelons on their heads.

They are members of Rider Nation, cheering on the Saskatchewan Roughriders as they take on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on their home turf this Sunday in the Canadian Football League championship game. And there are more than a few of them right here in St. Albert.

Mike Howes is the owner of DKC Sparklean, an organizer for Rock’n August and — along with his sons David and Lucas — a die-hard Riders fan, having grown up

in Swift Current, Sask.“I have four kids and only three

Grey Cups, so it’s huge,” he said with a laugh.

In fact, Howes is so devoted to watching his Riders, he’s delaying a flight to Halifax until after the big game.

“I’m leaving at 9 p.m., and I’m landing at 6:30 in the morning for an 8:30 meeting,” he said. “That’s dedication!”

As well, David’s bedroom is all decked out in green-and-white Roughriders posters and wallpaper, and all three of them put on their jerseys and spray their hair green even if they’re staying at home watching games.

Meanwhile, Vicky Rogers is a marketing associate at the Arden Theatre, but grew up watching the Roughriders and remains a loyal fan to this day.

“It’s huge. It’s absolutely huge, because the

Riders have only won three

times in the last 100 years,” she said.

“They had such a solid season, and it really feels like this

could be the year.”For her, the connection to

the Roughriders started while growing up and living in Regina, Moose Jaw and Saskatoon, and seeing just how community-minded the team was.

“I remember local police and firefighters always having Rider

trading cards on them, and anytime they’d see kids, they’d give them another player card,” she said. “You were always aware of them.”

That connection is something that hasn’t faded even though she now lives a province away.

“Even in the office, we’ve got five die-hard Rider fans, and we’re having a Grey Cup tailgate party on Friday in the office,” she said with a laugh.

Howes figures the Roughriders’ loyal following comes mainly from the fact that there are no other professional sports teams in the province.

“I guess we have nothing else to cheer for,” he joked. “It’s a rallying cry for the province. And I think that, once you become a Rider fan, you stay that way forever.”

With their sights set on a record fundraising year, the St. Albert Salvation Army is hoping to ring the bells of local volunteers.

Lt. Peter Kim, pastor of the local Salvation Army, said Tuesday that the church is in need of volunteers for its annual Kettle Campaign, through which they hope to raise $300,000 to help the community.

“We’re finding that most of our dedicated kettle volunteers are getting older, and it’s harder for them to get out to these locations,” Kim said. “We’re hoping younger people will come out and join us.”

The campaign raised $285,000 last year and $275,000 in 2011.

Some of the money raised this year will go toward setting up youth programs at the Salvation Army’s building on Liberton Drive.

When the St. Albert Youth Community Centre closed its doors in Grandin Park Plaza

earlier this year, the Salvation Army picked up some of the slack, running drop-in programs for youth on Friday nights. Now, Kim said, they want to expand their youth programming in their facility, which has a gymnasium, a kitchen and other amenities.

“The feedback I’ve got is that an after-school program is what’s definitely needed,” he said. “We’re looking at how we would run that. It’s more about relationships than about programs. We’re hoping to maybe hire someone who will be a youth worker to bridge that gap between the youth and programs.”

Funds raised in St. Albert stay in St. Albert, Kim added. Some of the campaign dollars will go toward

providing one-time emergency funding to people who suddenly find themselves in need.

This year’s campaign has been running since Nov. 15, and while Kim said it usually starts slow in terms of volunteers to man the kettles and slowly picks up closer to Christmas, this year has been tough.

“We’re finding it difficult to even get the ones we normally get,” he said.

Anyone interested in volunteering should contact Kettle Campaign co-ordinator Cindy Romanyshyn at 780-

995-2769 or the Salvation Army office at 780-458-

1937.


The City of St. Albert wants to help residents re-tire their old tires.

The City announced last week that, starting immediately, tires from bicycles, cars and off-road

vehicles would be accepted at the recycling depot in Campbell Business Park free of charge.

“This is a great additional service for residents looking to dispose of old tires,” said City solid waste programs co-ordinator Christian Benson in a press release. “The tires that get

recycled are remanufactured in many new applications, such as athletic tracks, rubberized roofing and landscaping material.”

All bicycle tires will be accepted, as well as car and light trucks with a rim diameter up to 19.5 inches and off-road tires with a rim diameter up to 39 inches.

The tire recycling program is being administered in partnership with Alberta Environmental Rubber Products (AERP) and the Alberta Recycling Management Authority (ARMA).

In recent years, the recycling depot —

located at 7 Chevigny St. — has been able to accept several new materials for recycling, including used oil, aerosols, paint, scrap metal, electronics and household hazardous materials.

For more information on the City’s recycling depot, its hours and what it accepts, log onto www.stalbert.ca/recyclingdepot.

City philanthropy award goes to Ron Hodgson


A long-time car dealer in St. Albert is being recognized for the good work he has done in the community.

On Friday, Nov. 15 — which happened to be World Philanthropy Day — St. Albert Mayor Nolan Crouse announced that Ron Hodgson would be the recipient of the 2013 St. Albert Philanthropy Award, which recognizes annually the exceptional generosity bestowed upon the community by one of its residents.

“Ron Hodgson has contributed to St. Albert in numerous ways since 1978,” Crouse said in a press release. “His contributions towards sports organizations, arts groups, cultural causes and youth over those 35 years have been both endless and remarkable.”

Among his many causes, Hodgson has been particularly involved in making sure people with special needs are supported

in the community. These efforts include an inclusive hiring policy at the Chevrolet Buick GMC dealership bearing his name at the south end of St. Albert Trail, as well as significant support of Special Olympics programs in St. Albert.

“We are incredibly lucky to have such a strong supporter, especially of youth in our community,” Crouse added in the release. “His sponsorship of Servus Credit Union Place, Special Olympics, and the Youth Centre are indicative of his commitment to the leaders of tomorrow.”

The St. Albert Philanthropy Award has been given out every year since 2009. Past recipients include Dan Roy (2009); Ash Khan (2010); the Hutchinson family, owners of Daytona Homes (2011); and the Jenkins family, owners of several local Tim Hortons franchises (2012).

Hodgson will be formally recognized at an event hosted by the St. Albert Community Foundation on Sunday, Dec. 1.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow — all the better for the St. Albert and District Chamber of Commerce’s annual Snowflake Festival.

The downtown festival — which includes horse-and-wagon rides, movies, crafts and the lighting of the giant Christmas tree just outside the St. Albert Community Hall — takes place once again on Friday, Nov. 29, from 6:30 to 9 p.m.

“It’s just wonderful. It really kicks off Christmas for our Perron District and for St. Albert,” said Chamber president and CEO Lynda Moffat. “We’ve got Santa there and all the little ones get to come and visit him. And there are things that you don’t get to see all year that really are Christmas, like the live reindeer and everything that makes it so wonderful.”

The event has been going for many years, previously put on by the Downtown Business Association until the Chamber took over.

Activities will be taking place throughout the downtown core. Outside St. Albert Place will be a fire performer along with a number of food vendors, while inside, there will be crafts, storytelling and movies courtesy of Grandin Theatres.

At the Community Hall, after the tree is lit up, there will be live ice carving throughout the evening while Santa Claus holds court inside.

Along Perron Street and St. Michael Street, there will be shinny hockey, horse-and-wagon rides, and even a new s’mores station thanks to the support of the St. Albert Leader. Donations will also be accepted for St. Albert Transit’s Fill-A-Bus campaign benefitting the St. Albert Kinettes’ annual Christmas hampers.

Of course, aside from the activities, Moffat said it’s also a chance for people to see what

Perron District businesses have to offer during the busy Christmas shopping season.

“There’s always stuff going on downtown, and (the festival) gives you a chance to catch up and find out where you might want to come back and

shop at,” she said.But, more than anything, the Snowflake

Festival is a chance for the Chamber to reach out to the community and spread a little Christmas cheer — possibly over two days in the near future.

“It draws people in and lets them come down and enjoy what our community is all about,” she said. “It’s a family affair, and it becomes a family tradition. Every year, there are families that would never miss it.”

“It really kicks off Christmas for our Perron District.”

By this point in my life, after 31 years and three months

living in roughly the same area of this planet we call home, it shouldn’t really be a surprise when Old Man Winter shows up to visit.

Yet here I find myself again, wondering where exactly our summer and autumn seasons went, how all this snow found its way to the ground, why it’s so freakin’ cold and how the sun could possibly set before I leave work for the day.

Nevertheless, we find ourselves once again digging the parkas out of the back of the closet, cursing the fact we never got that remote starter installed, and overall just hunkering down for another five months or so of snow and cold.

That said, there are always a few things that we need to remind ourselves of to help us get through the winter with our sanity intact.

First off, please be careful when you’re driving. Your car might have all-wheel drive and winter tires, but those are not substitutes for due care and attention behind the wheel. Remember that, even though you may have those things, the other drivers on the road may not, so keep an eye out for them.

But there is such a thing as being too cautious. Going 10 or 15 km/h under the posted

speed limit during bad weather is reasonable; doing the same when it’s sunny but cold out and the roads are bare and dry is really almost more dangerous than speeding.

Speaking of being on the roads, a little co-operation goes a long way. If you see someone in a pickle — say they’ve found themselves stuck in the snow and spinning their wheels — be cool and give them a hand rather than just driving by. If someone finds themselves in the wrong lane or another potentially precarious position, let them in. It won’t set you back too far, and their wave (hopefully they wave) can’t possibly express the amount of gratitude they’re feeling at that moment.

Even in winter, there will be jerks on the roads; there always are. You know who I mean — the people who whiz by at speeds that would be excessive even in the dog days of summer, let alone the middle of January. But really, let them be, and keep focused on your own driving. And you can always bask in a little bit of schadenfreude when you go around the next bend and see them fumbling for their registration to give to the police officer who has just pulled them over.

Just remember, it’s only about five months until we’re back into spring, and then summer. And then we can all complain about how hot it is out and wonder why we didn’t get that air conditioner installed.

Keep your cool as temperatures plummet

Mayors must walk the walkWhen it comes to relations between

St. Albert and Sturgeon County, there’s a lot of rosy talk going on

right now. But, in a few months, we’ll truly find out if both sides are willing to put their money where their mouths are.

Last week, St. Albert Mayor Nolan Crouse — freshly re-elected to another four years as chair of the Capital Region Board — and newly elected Sturgeon County Mayor Tom Flynn issued a joint statement saying that they were committed to more co-operation between the two municipalities going forward. Crouse himself went even further in an interview with the Leader, saying that this was the most optimistic he had been about relations with the county in his time as mayor so far.

It’s all flowery talk at this point, but the rubber will truly meet the road in February, when a strategy session with a third-party facilitator is set to take place. That’s when we’ll really see just how committed both sides are to tackling the issues that remain hanging over their heads.

There is a fair amount of time between now and then, though, and some thorny issues to deal with, like the county’s municipal development plan and its plans for development in Villeneuve. How those issues play out may be a good indicator of what sort of tone the meetings in February will take.

For his part, Flynn seems much more committed to maintaining a good relationship with St. Albert than his predecessors ever were. That said, it might only take one contentious issue, one errant remark or one rogue councillor from either side to set things back to how they have been in recent years. Hopefully anything like that can be curtailed through the one-on-one meetings both mayors are encouraging between councillors and members of their respective administrations.

Right now, both sides are saying the right things. For the sake of both municipalities and for the sake of political harmony throughout the region, though, let’s hope they can walk the walk as well as they talk the talk.

Skills park input wantedGLENN COOKSt. Albert Leader

The City of St. Albert is putting plans for public consultation on the location of a new mountain bike skills park into gear.

Starting Friday and running until Jan. 24, the City plans to collect input from members of the public on the two sites that they’ve narrowed their choices down to: Gloucester Park and 43 R Riel Dr.

“We really want to have complete and full public engagement on this project,” general manager of community and protective services Chris Jardine said in a press release. “It’s important that citizens are heard and so if anyone has a view, thoughts, or ideas, we’re keen to hear and we’re making it easy for people to share what they want to say.”

The input will come in many forms, ranging from open houses

scheduled for January to online surveys and emails.

The two sites were chosen by City administration from a list of 42 possible sites that were narrowed down using an established set of criteria.

Earlier this year, administration had recommended moving ahead

with the project at Liberton Park, but that idea was quashed due to backlash from area residents.

Jardine noted in the press release, however, that there was

still strong support for the concept of a bike skills park in St. Albert, just disagreement on where to put it.

The open houses are scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 15, at Sir George Simpson Junior High School and Saturday, Jan. 18, at the Grandin Clubhouse on Grenfell Avenue. For more information on the project and the public consultation process, visit www.stalbert.ca/bike-skills-park.

engagement.”Chris Jardine

SHREK in SHREK: THE MUSICAL

You’ve had a lot of different roles with St. Albert Children’s Theatre over the years. Is there one that sticks out for you as a favourite?

I think my favourite role I ever played was the first role I ever played on the Arden Theatre stage back in 2007: In a show called Just So, I played the eldest magician. It was my first big role in a musical, and I think it really set the stage for what I’ve done over the past couple of

years.

How did you first get into the Children’s Theatre?

I saw their production of Narnia, and it was just crazy. Apparently, I had taken a Children’s Theatre camp when I was younger, but I’ve completely forgotten it. ... But I saw the Narnia show, and I thought it was the coolest thing in

the world. So I auditioned and ended up getting in.

“I don’t even remember singing

in the shower until I started

doing Children’s Theatre.”

How would you say being in Children’s Theatre has helped you over the years? What skills have you taken away from it?

It’s definitely given me a huge confidence boost. Anytime that you are performing, it really teaches you a lot about who you are and what you’re comfortable with. I started out very shy, very timid, and now it’s helped me grow a lot in terms in confidence. I think I’m a more compassionate person; working with kids, you learn

a lot about how to treat people.

Photo: GLENN COOK, St. Albert Leader

When you first signed up, did you ever think you’d work your way up to being the lead in a show like this?

I wasn’t sure. I’d never really been a singer; I don’t even remember singing in the shower until I started doing Children’s Theatre. But then I got to the winter show and I was already in a leading role, and it was just the coolest, craziest, most challenging experience. You never really expect you’re going to be there until you’re out on stage singing in front of everyone.

In Shrek, you have to talk with a Scottish accent. Do accents like that come naturally to you? Or did you have to really work on that?

(laughs) It does not come naturally to me at all. We worked with a dialect coach at MacEwan (University) because, when it comes to accents, I’m just lost. I’ve only actually done an accent in a show once, and that was in university. Everyone said it was a

great accent, but they didn’t know what kind of accent it was.

What are you hoping the kids who come and see Shrek: The Musical take away from it?

There are a lot of really great lessons in the show — don’t judge a book by its cover and everything. But I hope everyone sees how much fun it is, and maybe they give their acting side a try too. If they have any desire to be on stage, I hope they can audition for something or try something out.

Crouse back as CRB chairGLENN COOKSt. Albert Leader

Just a few weeks after a hard-fought win in the St. Albert mayoral race, Nolan Crouse’s latest victory was decidedly easier.

On Thursday, Nov. 14, Crouse was acclaimed for a four-year term as chair of the Capital Region Board, a position he has held since April 2012.

“I think what the board was looking for more than anything was stability,” Crouse said. “I’ve been there almost two years as the chair ... I’m not driving the agenda; I’m the facilitator of the board’s agenda. And I think, right now, the board has trust in me that I’m going to move the board’s agenda forward, not St. Albert’s agenda or Nolan’s agenda.”

The CRB was established in 2008 and is made up of elected officials from 24 municipalities in the Edmonton area. Prior to being elected chair, Crouse had chaired the subcommittee on regional transit.

Crouse was pleased with the fact that there was no opposition for the position — not only for himself, but for the message it sends out.

“You have a united message going to the minister and you’ve got a united

message going to the communities: We’ve got a board chair and we trust him,” he said.

But, he added, the fact it was a four-year commitment did give him some pause.

“I wasn’t jumping up and down to say that’s the job I want and I’m happy it’s four years,” he said. “But I made the decision just after the election, and it’s a little bit of serving the greater good.”

The Nov. 14 meeting was one of the first following the municipal elections in October, and with 10 new mayors around the table, Crouse said there was an air of optimism around the table.

“People are just clamouring to get on the committees ... it’s kind of exciting,” he said.

“There’s a sense of excitement knowing that we’re in this thing, with a unanimously selected chair. Let’s get on

with our business. It’s very positive,” he added.

And there’s plenty of business to get on with. Crouse said the two biggest issues the board will likely deal with over the next four years are a 50-year growth plan and regional transit.

“We’ve knocked five years off the growth plan — it was a 35-year plan — and the province is asking us to put together a 50-year plan now. Instead of 30, a brand new 50,” he said. “Putting that together, we’re talking about acreages and farmland and outer-outer ring roads and LRTs. Fifty years is tough. That means St. Albert is going to be at 130,000 population. How do you start thinking like that?”

“It’s a little bit of serving the greater good.”

“I think it’sthe look they’reafter. I thinkgranite adds areal richness andwarmth, becauseit’s not a man-made product theway quartz is,”he said. “Quartzcan look verycold. Quartz ismore for peoplewho are moreafter a clean look,whereas granite— and this is howI explain it — is a

�� not perfect. You look at one end of a piece of�� than the other end. But people like thatinconsistency about it.”

And, he adds, with the selection of coloursavailable nowadays, granite is easy to work

with and can be an option for just about anyhome decor.

“I try to narrow it down to a couple ofpieces with a client, as opposed to them going�� slabs,” he said.

�� putting to some people, but Stanley feels itstruly a bargain given how much work goesinto harvesting it.

“They literally blast it and bring it out in arectangular brick, then they slice it likebread,”he said. “...When you consider themining, theshipping, the rest of it, for standard granite,you’re looking at $80 a square foot. It’s notthat unreasonable, I think.”

After it’s mined and shipped to Canada, theslabs of granite are cut, polished and edgedbefore being installed in homes.

And not only can granite be installed inkitchens, it can look great in bathrooms aswell with just a little bit of maintenance.

“People think granite is a dangerousproduct to use in a bathroom because of spillsand staining,” he said. “It’s a low-maintenanceproduct; itdoesrequiresomemaintenance,butvery low. You put a sealer on it once or twice ayear, depending on the colour of the granite....If you spill something on it and wipe it up(right away), it’s taken care of.”

Mayors ready to co-operateGLENN COOKSt. Albert Leader

The mayors of both Sturgeon County and St. Albert are hoping for brighter days when it comes to relations between the two municipalities.

St. Albert Mayor Nolan Crouse, recently re-elected for his third term in office, and newly elected Sturgeon County Mayor Tom Flynn issued a joint statement last week saying that they had recently met face-to-face to talk about the issues they must face together, and both say they’re extremely optimistic moving forward.

“I’m more optimistic now than I’ve been in my six years as mayor,” Crouse said.

“This is moving 100 per cent in the right direction,” he added. “And I’m not just saying that to be politically right. I believe it, I feel it, and I think we’ve got a good view forward.”

Meanwhile, Flynn — who ousted former mayor Don Rigney on Oct. 21 — shared Crouse’s optimism, noting that co-operation and collaboration

were key planks in his campaign platform.

“If we use the education of the past, and not remember any of the little problems and make them mountains, I think we can get over most things,” he said.

As they did themselves, the mayors are encouraging their councillors to meet one-on-one with their colleagues, as well as members of their administrations meeting with their counterparts.

Flynn said that’s all about building relationships between the two municipalities.

“If you have a relationship with anybody and you start off by poking them in the eye, you’re obviously not going to get along very well,” he said. “But peer to peer, if we’re building relationships so we talk openly about everything and trust each other, we’ll move ahead much better.”

“The phone rings on both ends the same,” Crouse added.

Before the election, the two municipalities had committed to an orientation and strategy session with a third-party

facilitator, which is still planned for Feb. 26, possibly in Westlock.

“The facilitator is going to look and say, what are the things we can work on together and what are the things we need more help with?” Crouse said. “It could be anything from recreation to fire, water, sewers, roads. It’s an open slate right now.”

Flynn added that he hoped the addition of the third-party facilitator would help “peel the onion apart” and get both sides to talk about their problems.

“When you lay all your cards on the table and you pick off the low-hanging fruit, you sort out a bunch of the pieces early, then some of the bigger ones become a lot easier, because they’re not tied to other issues,” he said.

Between now and February, though, there is work to do, including the county’s municipal development plan and the development plan for the Villeneuve area.

“We’re hoping to develop some handshake agreements to co-operate and help that move ahead,” Flynn said.

Provincial aviation museum glides into Villeneuve Airport

Boy, 4, puts pen to paper to help friend

DAVE LAZZARINOSun Media News Services

Edmonton’s downtown airport may be history, but a new deal may mean smooth sailing for the future of aviation history in the region.

The Edmonton Regional Airports Authority announced Saturday they will be donating a 13-acre site at the Villeneuve Airport just northwest of the city. It will house an entirely new museum project in conjunction with the existing Alberta Aviation Museum (AAM).

“It’s a pretty major step,” said executive director of the AAM, Thomas Hinderks, following the announcement.

The AAM will stay on its current site and become more of a static museum while many of the artifacts it houses will move to the new site where the Alberta Flying Heritage Museum will be housed.

“(The AAM) collection and mandate is now being focused specifically on Edmonton,” explained Hinderks.

The new museum, however, will cover all of central and northern Alberta and will act as a “living museum” hosting still-flying aircraft as well as restoration and living history programming.

The new project, which will be run by an entirely separate board from the AAM, comes with a lofty price tag.

“The total project will run in the area of approximately $10 million,” said Hinderks, adding all the cash will be coming from fundraising.

“A lot of fundraising still has to be done. We’ll be working with the provincial government, the federal government and others as well as the public and corporate Edmonton to raise those dollars,” he said.

As for the current site, Hinderks said the AAM will be asking the City of Edmonton for funding to continue operations.

ALLISON SALZSun Media News Services

A four-year-old Edmonton boy’s paintings of monsters are raising cash for a young girl battling a much scarier beast — cancer.

When Julie Rohr heard that her friend Amber MacNeil’s three-year-old daughter Kyla was diagnosed with leukemia, she knew she had to do something.

She decided to use her son Max’s passion for drawing into a way to raise funds for Kyla and her family, and started the Papercastle Art Collective.

“It tugs at your heart strings. I think every parent understands that fear and those emotions,” she said.

“When we heard about Kyla’s diagnosis we started talking about cancer and what it’s like. It’s very similar to a monster, it’s very scary.”

Kyla’s diagnosis is just the latest blow for the family, Rohr adds, mom Amber had finished treatment for a brain tumour just days before receiving news of her daughter’s leukemia.

“We were all so happy to hear that her treatment had finished, that she appeared to be over the worst of it,” she said.

“And then comes Kyla’s

diagnosis. Can you imagine how that family is coping? When I heard I couldn’t not help.”

Some drawings are of cute monsters, some of angry, scary

ones. The original 50 masterpieces have already sold out, Rohr says she’s started to sell prints now so that the young artist doesn’t have to attempt to keep up with

demand.Kyla’s sister Kimley has also

drawn up a handful of pieces, and Rohr says those should be available on the website shortly.

The drive was started Thursday and has already raised over $1,600 for the MacNeil family.

Half of the proceeds will go towards the family, and the other half will benefit to the Leukaemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada.

The paintings come at the cost of a suggested donation, $10 for “monster magnets”, $20 for “monster prints” and $35 for “monster canvas” pieces.

Rohr says they’ve received plenty of donations that go “above and beyond” the suggested amount.

Back to four-year-old Max, the budding artist, his mom says he has some idea of the seriousness of little Kyla’s diagnosis, as his grandpa lost a battle with melanoma not long ago.

“He’s happy that we’re able to help.”

Web forum focuses on cyberbullying

TREVOR ROBBSun Media News Services

For Tera Murphy, the online world is not a friendly space.

Just one year ago, Murphy’s now-14-year-old daughter tried to kill herself following two years of intense cyberbullying.

Murphy found out about the bullying just one month before her daughter tried to take her own life.

“By that point it had spun so far out of control that I was just lost,” said Murphy, at the Bullying Prevention and Healthy Relationships event hosted by the province on Monday.

Murphy’s biggest concern is the lack of accountability with cyberbullying, describing the act as a “faceless crime.”

“You can’t find them (bullies), you can’t follow them and it can happen at any time of day,” said Murphy. “It’s there 24 hours a day, it’s not like kids can get away from it.”

Monday’s live webcast event focused on bullying in the workplace, at home, and in the classroom. It brought together speakers from all corners of the bullying spectrum — taking live questions from online viewers, and a studio audience at the Teachers Media Studios in south Edmonton.

“I think we saw this morning a really important dialogue starting,” said Sandra Jansen, Associate Minister of Family and

Community Safety.“It doesn’t matter where you are, whether

it’s online or in the community, when we understand what the parameters are for acceptable social behaviour, then I think we’re all improving ourselves.”

On the issue of cyberbullying, Jansen said that while the government hasn’t taken any specific actions in terms of legislation, there are anti-bullying measures being included in the Education Act, which will be proclaimed in 2015.

“There are initiatives across the country, whether it’s the Erase Bullying program

in B.C. or legislation in Nova Scotia, everybody is looking at the issue of cyberbullying,” said Jansen. “A lot of the pieces in Nova Scotia’s anti-bullying legislation is already in the Education Act.

“We want to make sure before we go and institute something, and we’re using taxpayers’ dollars, that we’re looking at the most effective plans.”

Murphy, meanwhile, has been working with B.C. mom Karen Todd, whose daughter Amanda Todd committed suicide in October 2012 as a result of cyberbullying, and other parents who have gone through similar experiences to work together to try to end cybebullying amongst teens.

“Parents need to be engaged and they need to know what’s going on,” said Murphy. “It’s an epidemic now — all these kids dying is just too much.”

“It’s not like kids can get

away from it.”Tera Murphy

Shrek roars onto stage at Arden TheatreENTERTAINMENT


Steven Angove and Arielle Ballance are going green — but not with envy.

The two St. Albert Children’s Theatre alumni are back at the Arden Theatre starting tonight (Thursday) to play everyone’s favourite ogres as the company puts on Shrek: The Musical until Dec. 1.

Of course, becoming an ogre takes a lot of work and a lot of green makeup, something neither actor has really had to deal with before.

“It’s a two-and-a-half-hour affair to get into the makeup every time. It’s pretty crazy,” said Angove, who plays Shrek. “It’s a full headpiece that has the ears on it and everything, and that’s blended to my skin. And I wear a nose piece too, and fake eyebrows ... it’s a big ordeal.”

“All my makeup changes are quick — I have to go offstage and come back within a minute and have my makeup done,” added Ballance, who plays Princess Fiona. “I don’t have to wear it the whole time, but it’s still that bright green, caked-on makeup.”

But both are very excited to take on the challenge.

“I’m over the moon. I don’t think I’ll ever get the opportunity to play a character like this ever again,” Ballance said. “Fiona’s really different from any other princess you see in fairy tales.”

“It’s a big cast, it’s a huge show, and it’s a lot more challenging than I thought it was going to be,” Angove added.

Shrek was first released as a movie in 2001, when both Angove and Ballance were young, so it’s a story that they’ve grown up with over the years.

“It was definitely a movie I enjoyed when I first saw it; I think they’re great movies,” Angove said, although he and Ballance agree that Shrek the Third was not as good as the others. “When I heard they were doing

Shrek, I went, ‘Hmmm, I wonder how close it’ll be to the movie.’ Then I read the script, and it’s pretty much identical.”

Of course, countless others have also grown up with the story of Shrek, so it’s a challenge for the actors to put their own spins on their characters.

“There is a little bit of pressure to play Fiona how the audience expects her to be,” Ballance said. “They saw her in the movie and have an idea of what she’s supposed to be. But I’m hoping to do the part justice and make them like me.”

The original movie, however, wasn’t a musical, but Ballance said the music that has been added fits in nicely with the rest of the story.

“It’s fun, and it’s exactly what you’d expect for a fairy tale musical,” she said. “But, at the same time, there are a billion different styles

of music in this show — there’s an R&B song, there’s a girls trio song. It encapsulates a lot of different genres. It’s entertaining, but it still fits with the whole theme of Shrek and that fairy tale land.”

While Angove and Ballance are reuniting with St. Albert Children’s Theatre, they’re very familiar with each other. They came up through the ranks of SACT together, and recently toured together for eight months with Alberta Opera’s production of Sleeping Beauty.

“I’ve known Steven since I was probably 15, and we’ve done so many shows together. He’s just one of my really close friends, and we get along so well,” Ballance said. “It’s so fun to just play on stage with him and have a good time. It’s really natural.”

Angove agreed, noting that Ballance has also worked with him on some small plays

he has put on through his own theatre company.

“We know each pretty well after that tour,” he said with a laugh.

He’s also worked with some of the kids who are still in the SACT cast, but after three years away, he said it’s “amazing” to see how much they’ve grown and developed.

“A lot of the kids are the same kids, but grown up,” Angove said. “Parents talk about how you don’t see someone for a while, and then they’re all grown up. I’ve never had that until I did this. It’s been three years, which seems like nothing to me, but I come back, and these kids have completely changed.”

Shrek: The Musical runs at the Arden Theatre until Dec. 1. Tickets are $26 for adults and $20 for children and seniors (plus fees and charges) and are available through Ticketmaster and the Arden box office.

is usually bull, cow or horse hide, scraped clean of all meat, fat

and hair. Rawhide is not considered food so manufacturers donot have to adhere to any labeling, processing or content laws.Rawhide is made by soaking the hide in an ash-lye solution

for a few days to remove all the hair and then soaking thehide in bleach to remove all traces of the ash-lye solutionand to sanitize it. While the hide is still wet it is shaped intoproducts such as rawhide chews. Once dried, the rawhideshrinks to about half the original size. When a dog swallows

a piece of rawhide, that piece has the potential to swell up tofour times its size, which can cause a life-threatening gastricblockage.There are many alternatives to rawhide that will satisfy your

dog’s natural chewing instinct. Pet Planet recommends theserawhide alternatives: beef chews, hooves, raw bones, smokedbones or edible chews. And as with any treat or chew, theyshould only be given to your pet under supervision.

Chocolatier comes homeGLENN COOKSt. Albert Leader

You could say that making chocolates is Kalibri Maureen Wetsch’s “dream job.”

These days, Wetsch, a Bellerose Composite High School graduate, is living in Nelson, B.C., whipping up truffles and chocolate bars as the owner of Ambrosia Artisan Chocolates, but she’s back in her hometown this weekend to take part in Make It! Edmonton at the Enjoy Centre.

But a few years ago, she was living at an ashram — a yoga retreat — in B.C., when the idea came to her in the middle of the night.

“I had a dream that I was making bee pollen chocolate truffles,” said Wetsch, 36, who lived in St. Albert until about 2005. “Really simple, nothing profound, but it was like, OK, what’s that about?”

A dream course she was taking at the ashram prompted Wetsch to explore this avenue further, doing research into chocolate’s ancient origins and taking a

three-month online chocolatier course.

“It’s taken me on some good adventures,” she said.

These days, Wetsch is living her dream, and is making more than truffles. Ambrosia has branched out into chocolate bars, flavoured cacao beans and hot chocolate.

Having travelled there a few times, Wetsch has had a fairly easy time sourcing her chocolate from South American countries like Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Peru.

“I was looking for samples of each of these different chocolates, and Colombia really stood out for me,” she said. “That’s when I took the trip. I made a connection there.”

Wetsch has a number of different recipes for her bars. Some, like the one called Mayan Tradition that features purple corn and black pepper, are based off ancient recipes.

“In research, I read that Mayan and (other) cultures would drink cacao, and they’d often add some kind of spice, like a chili pepper, and corn, because corn was a

staple,” she said.Others, though, are more

modern creations that Wetsch has come up with. One of her best sellers is Crystal Rose, which contains rose oil and Bolivian rock salt.

The reactions she gets when people try her chocolate for the first time are worth all the work.

“I often get, ‘That’s the best chocolate I’ve ever had!’ Or sometimes people are like, ‘I don’t even normally like chocolate,’” she said. “That’s been reassuring to keep moving with this.”

Wetsch said she doesn’t get back to St. Albert that often — maybe once a year to visit her parents — but coming back for Make It! is a thrill.

“It feels like my biggest show in my hometown. Something feels significant about it,” she said.

She added that shows like Make It! are key to getting the word out about her products.

“It’s a way to put myself out there, for people to see and sample, and for me to learn from other people — what do you want? What gets you excited when

you think of chocolate?” she said.In the future, though, Wetsch

isn’t sure where Ambrosia will take her, but she is sure there is a spiritual element to chocolate that

she wants to explore further.“I know what it’s not going to

be, but I’m not quite sure what it’s going to be ... I need a few more dreams,” she said with a laugh.

Lawrence proud of Hunger Games characterMICHAEL RECHTSHAFFENSun Media News Services

Talk about Catching Fire!It wasn’t even a couple of years ago

when Jennifer Lawrence was a fresh-faced 21-year-old actress probably best known as Raven/Mystique in X-Men: First Class as well as for her roles in the indie films Like Crazy and, especially, Winter’s Bone.

Of course, that was before the arrival of Hunger Games.

Some $691 million in worldwide box-office grosses later, Lawrence is a global superstar, and while she’s previously expressed her discomfort in dealing with that level of fame, she’s more or less come to accept life as Katniss Everdeen over the months leading up to the Friday release of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.

“If I was going to be identified by a character for the rest of my life, that’s a hard thing to think about,” admits Lawrence, during at a Four Seasons Hotel press conference where one of the film’s reps has already cautioned the media about there being no photography, no video and no autographs.

“But I love this character and I’m

proud of her and I’m proud to be associated with this movie and this character for the rest of my life.”

The events in Catching Fire pick up shortly after those of the first film — with Katniss and fellow tribute Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) returning home after winning the 74th Annual Hunger Games.

But they have little time to catch their breath, having to embark on a Victors’ Tour of the districts.

And while the sequel is operating on a decidedly larger scale (with an estimated budget of $140 million versus the original’s reported $78 million) and a new director (I Am Legend’s Francis Lawrence), she still responds strongly to the dystopian storyline’s underlying message.

“I think it’s a wonderful message to show just how powerful one voice can be,” explains Lawrence. “It’s very easy as a society to just kind of follow the feet in front of us and it’s important for our younger generation to see how important they are in shaping our society and our future.”

Among the major set-pieces in Catching Fire was an island and cornucopia built in Atlantam and the 4 C water was only part of the physical

challenge the actors had to endure.“The spinning cornucopia was pretty

hard,” adds Lawrence.“We had a real spinning cornucopia

that was going about 30 miles per hour.”

Still, she’d be the first to credit Katniss for the positive changes that have been brought to her life.

“There are so many wonderful things that can come from this, when you have a voice saying the right things,” says Lawrence. “It’s easy to raise money for charity. It takes me 10 minutes to sign 100 posters that can raise thousands of dollars for charity and that’s so simple.”

She still tears up when relating something that happened on the set of the first Hunger Games.

“There was this girl who was an extra and she was covered in scars — she had been burned,” shares Lawrence. “And I remember her coming up to me and saying that she was self-conscious to go to school when she was younger. And then she read The Hunger Games and Catching Fire and she felt proud of her scars and her friends called her the ‘Girl on Fire.’ And I remember just crying and calling my mom.

“Sometimes the lives you can touch without even meaning to.”

Vaughn shows his gentler sideMICHAEL RECHTSHAFFENSun Media News Services

It isn’t every day that a French-Canadian film gets remade as a big Hollywood motion picture, but that’s exactly what happened with Starbuck.

The tender 2011 Quebec-based comedy about an immature Everyman who discovers he’s the biological father of 533 teens and twentysomethings, was a hit with film festival audiences in Toronto and Vancouver — and that sort of widespread appeal was duly noted by a number of American producers.

Cut to two years later, et voila, Starbuck has morphed into Delivery Man with Vince Vaughn playing the lovable loser whose prolific past as a fertility clinic donor has made him a dad several hundred times over.

But in an unusual move where major studios are concerned, Ken Scott, the original director and co-writer, also performed double duty for the remake, ensuring that nothing would be lost in the translation.

And that’s what sealed the deal for Vaughn.

“If it was a different director or just a concept they were trying to roll off of, I would have been less interested,” explains

Vaughn, who was actually made aware of the project, by his sister, who had seen Starbuck. “Ken’s a very passionate director and storyteller and you see a lot of Ken’s DNA in the movie.”

You also see sides of Vaughn that previously haven’t been a part of his trademark screen persona.

Known for his battery of fast-talking slicksters in films like Swingers, Old School and Wedding Crashers, Vaughn’s David Wozniak represents a literal change of pace for the 43-year-old actor, who’s joined in the film by Chris Pratt and Cobie Smulders, playing his best buddy and taken-for-granted girlfriend, respectively.

“My job was made so easy with both Cobie and Chris because a lot of my character is taking in information about how they see (him)” relates Vaughn. “It was having them say things and you’re really just reacting to that.”

Could we be seeing a shift toward kinder, gentler, more reactive roles in the future?

“I think part of it’s your age and different roles present themselves to you,” says Vaughn, looking admittedly “money” in a dapper grey suit with an open collar. “It changes what you play at 23 to some degree than what you play at 43. This material came at me at a time when I was really wanting to do something different, kind of

return to stuff that I had done when I was younger. But I would definitely do another more kind of outlaw R-comedy again, depending on what the story was.”

In his personal life, being the father of two young kids — he’s married to Alberta-born Kyla Weber, a former realtor — has also likely informed that shift away from his frat-pack past. “I got married a little later in life and, thankfully, my wife was able to get pregnant right away,” explains Vaughn of the 2010 birth of daughter Locklyn. And then the second one, we were trying (while shooting) this movie, actually. So it was the day, around Christmas, that my wife came to me with an ornament with a family on it and there was an extra person in a Santa hat. And that’s how I found out, which was great.”

Son Vernon was born in August.Vaughn’s the first to admit that having

kids has opened up a whole new world for him, and has some advice for other new dads. “I think, as a father, the best thing you can do for the kid is love the mom,” he shares. “Loving the mother is the most important thing, and even parents who aren’t together should respect each other and be kind to each other. I think it does so much in (informing) who they would pick to be around or how they feel about themselves.”

HEALTH

Grey Nuns celebrates premature babies

World losing the battle against diabetes, experts saySUN MEDIA NEWS SERVICES – The world is losing the battle against diabetes as the number of people estimated to be living with the disease soars to a new record of 382 million this year, medical experts said last week.

The vast majority have type 2 diabetes — the kind linked to obesity and lack of exercise — and the epidemic is spreading as more people in the developing world adopt Western, urban lifestyles.

The latest estimate from the International Diabetes Federation is equivalent to a global prevalence rate of 8.4 per cent of the adult population and compares to 371 million cases in 2012.

By 2035, the organization predicts the number of cases will have soared by 55

per cent to 592 million.“The battle to protect people

from diabetes and its disabling, life-threatening complications is being lost,” the federation said in the sixth edition of its Diabetes Atlas, noting that deaths from the disease were now running at 5.1 million a year or one every six seconds.

People with diabetes have inadequate blood sugar control, which can lead to a range of dangerous complications, including damage to the eyes, kidneys and heart. If left untreated, it can result in premature death.

“Year after year, the figures seem to be getting worse,” said David Whiting, an epidemiologist and public health specialist at the federation. “All around

the world we are seeing increasing numbers of people developing diabetes.”

He said that a strategy involving all parts of society was needed to improve diets and promote healthier lifestyles.

The federation calculates diabetes already accounts for annual healthcare spending of $548 billion and this is likely to rise to $627 billion by 2035.

Worryingly, an estimated 175 million of diabetes cases are as yet undiagnosed, so a huge number of people are progressing towards complications unawares. Most of them live in low- and middle-income countries with far less access to medical care than in the United States and Europe.

The country with the most diabetics

overall is China, where the case load is expected to rise to 142.7 million in 2035 from 98.4 million at present.

But the highest prevalence rates are to be found in the Western Pacific, where more than a third of adults in Tokelau, Micronesia and the Marshall Islands are already living with the disease.

Pharmaceutical companies have developed a range of medicines over the years to counter diabetes but many patients still struggle to control their condition adequately, leading to a continuing hunt for improved treatments.

Novo Nordisk, Sanofi and Eli Lilly are all major suppliers of insulin and other diabetes therapies.

For Leah and Tom Johnson-Coyle, preparing for parenthood was doubly difficult.

Pregnant with twins, it wasn’t long before the young couple realized childbirth was going to happen sooner rather than later.

Leah was on bed rest for eight and a half weeks before giving birth to a premature son and daughter, Finley and Molly-June.

On Sunday, Grey Nuns staff and Edmonton families gathered at the hospital for World Prematurity Day, a worldwide day to raise awareness about premature childbirth. Families were able to swap stories and share experiences before Santa Claus himself made a premature Christmas appearance.

“The purpose of today is to take away the fear for families who have a premature baby, to know it’s not the worst thing that can happen,” said Gail Cameron, nurse and Grey Nuns senior director of operations for women’s and child health.

Being a new parent to premature twins presented unique challenges.

“The biggest challenge for me was feeding and teaching them how to feed — when they’re born premature they often have to be fed through tubes,” said Leah, who was the first Edmonton recipient of donated breast milk through the Calgary Donor Milk Bank program and the Human Milk Depot, which opened at the Grey Nuns in 2012.

The twins were born at the Royal Alexandra Hospital and spent two weeks

there before transferring over to the Grey Nuns, for an additional two weeks of care at their Intermediate Care Nursery (ICN).

“To have the nurses that are specialized, the doctors, the managers, and the lactation consultants was just huge for us,” said Leah. “We’re lucky because they (babies) were just growers — we didn’t have the stresses of having complications

— they were just small and needed some time to grow.”

The Grey Nuns ICN is funded for 25 beds, but Cameron says there have been up to 34 beds used at a time.

“We’re very fortunate to have this site because every room has a sleeping couch and a lounge chair for the parents, so they have private single-room care for the

babies and families can stay 24/7 if they want,” said Cameron.

In 2013, the Grey Nuns and the Misericordia Hospitals helped deliver 8,829 babies, with an estimated 1,500 being admitted to the ICN annually. The Misericordia is currently undergoing renovations to their ICN with construction scheduled to complete in fall 2014.

Put down that filthy copy of Fifty Shades of Grey, and walk away with your dirty hands up.

Those who’ve flicked through a much-shared copy of the erotic love story, or most popular library books, may have overlooked secrets hidden between the lines.

But a Belgian team has discovered the most borrowed titles at an Antwerp library contained icky elements of past

lives.They found herpes simplex virus 1 —

associated with cold sores — clinging to steamy pages of Fifty Shades of Grey and more on Tango, another romance title.

Scientists at the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium studied 10 of the most popular books on loan at a local library.

Toxicology professor Jan Tytgat found all of the books tested positive for cocaine, but not in levels harmful to those leafing through the work.

While believing library card holders would be surprised by the results, he tells QMI Agency: “Fortunately it concerns only trace amounts and our ... immune system seems to cope with this.

“Nonetheless, proper hygiene (washing hands) is recommended.”

Surprising to his team, they also tested for THC, found in cannabis, but recorded no hits.

The work echoes past studies that have found bacterial colonies flourishing on the pages of library

books.The U.K. Guardian

points out libraries in Japan intend to loan out clean content, installing bacteria killing systems that scrub covers with UV rays — though not individual pages.

Tytgat would still like to test one other library book.

He wonders whether cocaine would be found in the Bible.

Chamber offers up China tour

WestJet takes off for the Emerald Isle


The St. Albert and District Chamber of Commerce is offering locals a chance to explore one of an ancient culture and a rising economic superpower.

The Chamber is planning a group tour to China starting in March 2014, and is holding an information session tonight (Thursday) for people who might be interested in going along.

“It’s not just a business trip; if you think it is, you’re wrong. It’s for everyone,” said Chamber president and CEO Lynda Moffat. “It’s for you to go and learn about China, to be able to visit some of the wonderful historic sites — it’s one of the oldest civilizations — and you get to see so much of their history as well as their modern (culture).”

Moffat went on a similar tour earlier this year, and can’t wait to go back.

“It was amazing. It was nothing that I would have expected,” she said, noting that the architecture there was one of the highlights for her. “I learned more about the Chinese culture and the people than I ever would have thought I would learn. For the price, it’s certainly a very good value for your money.”

Tours like this, Moffat said, are very common throughout the United States, and the local chamber has connected with CITSLINC International to offer the trip. It will leave from Seattle on March 29 and return on April

7, with stops in Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou and Hangzhou.

“(CITSLINC) provides excellent value for people who want to go over there and have a comfort level with what China’s all about,” Moffat said.

While the tour is for everyone, there are a few excursions during the tour that are centred around business.

“There is a tour of a very large industrial park that gives you a very clear understanding of the

level of business these people operate at,” Moffat said. “That became such a huge success for their country and their economy. ... There’s no roadblocks in

the way. You get to see just how advanced they are.”

Tonight’s information session will be led by Moffat, and she’s ready to answer any questions prospective travellers may have.

“I’m going to go through the things you need to think about or are probably worried about if you don’t have the information — getting your Chinese visa and all the paperwork you need to have, things you might expect on the trip, things that you’ll come into and it’s better that someone has already told you about it,” she said.

There’s room for 60 people on the China tour, which costs $2,399 per person based on double occupancy (travel costs to Seattle not included); registration and payment are due by Dec. 20. For more information, call the chamber office at 780-458-2833 or email [email protected].

“It’s certainly a very good value for your money.”

It’s another attempt to connect Canadians to the world and vice-versa, says a WestJet executive, as the Calgary-based airline announced Friday it’s flying direct to Ireland.

Airline officials said they’ve added Dublin to its flight roster, WestJet’s first transatlantic destination with seasonal daily service from June 15, 2014, to Oct. 5, 2014.

There will be non-stop flights to Dublin from St. John’s, N.L., direct (same-aircraft) flights from Toronto and connections from across WestJet’s network including Calgary.

WestJet’s solo foray into the European market is being hailed as another company milestone.

“It is an exciting time for WestJet as we bring our unique brand of low fares and award-winning guest experience to a whole new market,” said Chris

Avery, vice-president, network planning, alliances and corporate development.

“WestJet’s innovative foray into the European market represents a willingness to do what it takes to connect Canadians to the world while bringing the world to Canada.”

Avery said the passengers they fly to Dublin can access low-cost flights to more than 100 cities in Europe.

WestJet currently has a series of partnerships with European airlines including Alitalia, British Airways, Finnair, KLM and Icelandair, which allows its passengers to transfer onto its partners’ planes across the Atlantic.

Adding Dublin to its lists of destinations — although on a seasonal basis — is the airline’s first solo venture into Europe.

All Dublin service will operate using WestJet’s Boeing Next-Generation 737-700 series aircraft.

The Calgary-based airline currently flies to destinations across North America, Central America and the Caribbean.

METRO CREATIVE SERVICES – Finding a new job is never an easy task. That task grew even more difficult over the last half decade, when a struggling economy forced many companies to lay off workers and institute hiring freezes. As a result, unemployment numbers rose, and many out-of-work men and women found themselves searching for ways to stand out among a crowded pool of applicants.

Standing out in a crowded job market has always been tough, but many professionals find it even more difficult to get noticed now, when many companies request prospective employees apply for job postings via the Internet. That process can be frustrating, as even the most qualified applicants can easily get lost among the myriad of workers all applying for the same position. But as daunting as finding a new job may seem to those looking for work, there are ways to stand out among the masses.

• Go the extra mile when sending your application. Many online job postings provide a link or an email address where applicants can fill out an application or send their resumés. This is a necessary step, and applicants should follow the directions in the posting. But applicants who really want to get noticed can take the extra step of finding the contact information for the company’s hiring manager and sending their resumé directly to that person’s email address. Include the title of the position you’re applying for in the subject line of your email, and cut and paste your cover letter into the body of the email. In addition to sending your email to the company’s hiring manager, consider CC’ing the person who might be your boss if you were to get the position.

• Tighten things up. Your resumé should reflect your work experience, but you want to focus primarily on the experience and skills that are relevant to the position. You can list past positions or internships you’ve had, but keep the synopsis of those positions brief if they bear little relevance to the position for which you’re applying. The main focus of your resumé should be the things you have done in the past that make you the best candidate for this job. This might change as you apply for various positions, but tailor each resumé to each specific position.

• Make your resumé download-friendly. Applying for positions but getting little response despite your qualifications? Chances are your resumé might not be download-friendly. Bullet points and boxes might look good to you, but if the hiring manager on the receiving end of your resumé does not have the same version of the program you’re using, that resumé might look like a scrambled mess by the time it’s downloaded. In such instances your resumé is almost certain to end up in the scrap heap, no matter how qualified you might be. When uploading your resumé to a company Web site or emailing it to a hiring manager, choose a format they can easily download. A PDF, for example, is a format that’s easy to download and unlikely to scramble.

• Beware of hyperlinks. Adding hyperlinks to a resumé can be hit or miss. When it’s a hit, a hiring manager can click on a link in your resumé and be taken directly to samples of your work. However, if you’re asked to submit your resumé via an online application instead of sending it directly to a hiring manager’s email address,

then those same hyperlinks might be relegating your application to the trash bin before it’s ever seen. That’s because the database may be programmed to associate any documents with hyperlinks as spam, in which case the hiring manager will never see your application or resumé. Hyperlinks can be useful and help you stand out, but only when they’re employed under the right circumstances.

• Include social media profiles. More and more companies want employees who are familiar with social media, which can work to an applicants’ advantage or

prove detrimental. If you have been responsible regarding your use of social media, conducting yourself in a professional matter and even benefitting your existing employer, by all means share these profiles with potential employers. But if you have traditionally used social media purely as a social tool and not in a professional manner, then it bears little relevance to your job search and likely won’t help you stand out for the right reasons.

Standing out in a crowded job is rarely easy. But savvy professionals can employ a few tricks of the trade to stand out as they search for their next jobs.
