Printemps 2015

En avril 2015, une équipe de l'émission Enquête, de Radio-Canada, se rend à Val-d'Or pour enquêter sur la disparition de Cindy Ruperthouse, dont les proches sont sans nouvelle depuis un an. La famille est en attente d'un signe des enquêteurs depuis des mois.
La famille de Cindy Ruperthouse · Radio-Canada Info
Quelques jours après le passage de l'équipe d'Enquête à Val-d’Or, les policiers de la SQ perquisitionnent le logement de Lévis Landry, le dernier conjoint de Cindy Ruperthouse.
Le 11 mai, l'équipe d'Enquête s'entretient avec des amies de Cindy Ruperthouse au Centre d'amitié autochtone de Val-d'Or. Ces dernières disent ne jamais avoir été rencontrées par la police pour parler de sa disparition. Elles font des révélations inattendues, en dénonçant pour la première fois publiquement le comportement de certains policiers de la Sûreté du Québec à leur endroit.
La Sûreté du Québec dit avoir été informée des allégations criminelles visant les policiers de Val-d'Or le 12 mai, soit le lendemain de la rencontre des femmes par l'équipe d'Enquête. La SQ affirme avoir immédiatement déclenché une enquête. Les plaintes et l'enquête sont par la suite transférées à la direction des normes professionnelles à Montréal le 15 mai, et le ministère de la Sécurité publique est informé du dossier.
En juin, les parents de Cindy Ruperthouse reçoivent pour la première fois la visite des enquêteurs montréalais de la SQ. Quelques semaines plus tard, un policier a rencontré ses deux soeurs pour obtenir des prélèvements d’ADN.

Automne 2015

Le matin du 21 octobre, Radio-Canada dévoile les informations obtenues par l'émission Enquête. Des femmes autochtones disent avoir été victimes de sévices sexuels, d'abus et d'intimidation par des policiers de la SQ de Val-d’Or.
Radio-Canada Information | Facebook · Radio-Canada Information
Questionné à l'Assemblée nationale, le premier ministre du Québec, Philippe Couillard, affirme qu'une enquête est en cours, qu'elle va bientôt se terminer et que les conclusions seront transmises au DPCP.
La ministre de la Sécurité publique, Lise Thériault, affirme de son côté que les allégations sont troublantes et choquantes, précisant que son cabinet avait été informé en mai, et qu'une enquête avait immédiatement été déclenchée. Elle dit alors que « les enquêtes suivent leur cours », et qu'« il faut attendre que les informations soient déposées au DPCP ».
À Val-d'Or, plusieurs sont consternés des révélations de Radio-Canada. Le maire de la Ville et ancien ministre québécois des Affaires autochtones, Pierre Corbeil, dit ne jamais avoir été au fait de tels comportements.
Le 21 octobre en soirée, le reportage complet d'Enquête est diffusé à la télévision de Radio-Canada.

Inquiry Project- Childhood Obesity in America

This is were I will find cool stuff about my inquiry question on childhood obesity in American society.

Storified by celestekirkman · Sat, Oct 24 2015 16:14:41

Who's fault is childhood obesity? schools, parents, technology, or all three?
RT : CarolROwens: RT wrobertsfood: POWERFUL: Why Childhood Obesity Is Highest Ever in N America, Coupled With Lack… http://t.co/43FIhD9aqa · keVin
I have read some articles on lower income families and obesity, and most of those articles say that these two things are usually linked together. Lower income families cannot usually afford healthy foods because they are more expensive than unhealthy foods. I recently saw a video on YouTube that had some pretty good points; it said that if we had community gardens then we could make sure that people not only, have food to eat, but also that it was healthy food.
Healthy Vending Machines for Schools · freshhealthyvending
I think that students should have access to fresh and healthy snacks not just in the lunch room, but all around the school. I think that this video shows that it is an easy switch from unhealthy snacks to healthy snacks. This will also benefit the kids in a positive way, not only will the kids have healthier food from these machines, but they will also have healthier drinks to choose from.
The health risks that come along with childhood obesity
5 Things You Didn't Know About Childhood Obesity in America · OdysseyNetworks
This video talks about some of the major causes of childhood obesity. The ones that stand out to me most were that kids today eat more and exercise less; it also states that kids spend at least up to 6 hours in front of a screen. Another thing that I thought was shocking were the percentages of daily physical education offered in elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools in the United States. They were very low percentages. I think that all students should have the opportunity to do physical activity everyday at school. Physical education should be taught in schools, so that kids can learn about how to stay healthy and active.
Preventing childhood obesity: Tips for parents and caretakers. #tgphealthtips http://t.co/uCFiUNZCo3 · TheGenericsPharmacy
I think that in this time period technology rules people lives. We use it so much and it takes up so much of our time, but parents need to make sure that their kids are not sitting in front of a screen all day. No matter how healthy you eat your body still needs exercise. I think that parents need to be more creative in helping their child become active. Find a sport that they enjoy, so that they have teammates to play with or a goal to work towards. If your child doesn't like sports but they like video games or computer games; embrace that and try to find an interactive video game on the Wii fit or Xbox that gets them up and moving for an hour or so. There are many things that kids can do for fun that can also increase their activity level. This will help kids in the future because they are more likely to continue to be active as teens and adults if they were active as a child.

I think that this picture is good because it shows that there are many different things that kids can do to be active. They do not have to be on a sports team or in a gym class to be active. Kids just need to get up and move they can do anything they enjoy that gets them up on their feet and moving.
Preventing childhood obesity: Tips for parents and caretakers. #tgphealthtips http://t.co/PXMmou6yru · TheGenericsPharmacy
Kids are going to want to eat pizza and cookies and chicken nuggets, and that is okay; but parents need to teach their children how to do this in moderation. If the child learns these things early on then junk food will not be as much of a problem in the future.
I think that food should be fun and creative for kids. Kids are going to be more likely to eat their fruits and vegetables if their favorite game or character is on the food. You can also incorporate some not so healthy foods in this too; if your child loves chocolate maybe you could make the eyes and the nose chocolate chips and have the rest of the snack be a fruit, so the child still gets their chocolate but it is in moderation and it's in a healthier fashion. This will help kids develop healthy eating habits for the future so that they can be healthier adults.

For the second week on Tour, history was made on Sunday. This week at the Fubon LPGA Taiwan Championship, Lydia Ko captured her 10th win on the LPGA Tour, becoming the youngest to reach the milestone at 18-years of age. With her 9-stroke victory, she also set the largest margin of victory so far this season on Tour. While Ko clearly made the most of her week in Taiwan, sharing photos of her wearing a Minion onesie from Paula Creamer, here's a look at how the rest of the field enjoyed their time during the latest event of the Asia Swing.

О-ханами — фестиваль цветения и любования сакурой в Японии

Storified by Historycdo2 · Sun, Oct 25 2015 16:41:47

Главное весеннее событие в Японии — цветении сакуры. Любование сакурой японцы называют о-ханами. Период цветения сакуры не является официальным праздником в Японии. В японском календаре нет ни национального праздника, ни специальных праздничных или выходных дней, связанных с этим великолепным природным чудом. Но психологически это, несомненно, праздник, как для самих японцев, так и для многочисленных иностранных туристов.

В дни цветения сакуры парки, скверы, аллеи, а также территории буддийских и синтоистских храмов с цветущей сакурой посещают и проводят в них время огромное число людей. Период цветения относительно короток, поэтому цветением сакуры любуются и в дневное, и в вечернее время. Вечерний осмотр сакуры невероятно популярен: после 6 часов вечера деревья очень умело подсвечены, и прогулка в такой атмосфере наполнена романтизмом и некоторым таинством. Но, откровенно говоря, уединиться в тишине нет никакой возможности — вокруг масса народа!

За официальную точку отсчета начала цветения сакуры принято считать время распускания первых цветков на сакуре, растущей в древнем буддийском храме Ясукуни в Токио. Как только первые розовые цветки показались из бутонов, метеорологические службы сразу же оповещают о начале цветения сакуры в этом году. Примерное время для Токио и его окрестностей — конец марта, ориентировочно 20-25 числа. Продолжительность цветения — примерно две недели.

Но дело в том, что Япония значительно протянута с севера на юг, и на юге Японии (остров Кюсю и острова Окинавы) сакура зацветает уже в феврале. Кстати, и в более северных районах есть такие «теплые оазисы», где аллеями сакуры можно полюбоваться в середине февраля. Одним из таких «оазисов» является местечко на полуострове Идзу, примерно в трех часах езды от Токио. В древних столицах Японии, Киото и Наре, и прилежащих к ним префектурах самый расцвет сакуры приходится примерно на первые десять дней (до двух недель) апреля.

К середине апреля — началу мая «волна» цветущей сакуры распространяется дальше на север острова Хонсю. В первые майские дни роскошные парки и аллеи сакуры радуют глаз жителей северных префектур Японии (Акита, Ивате, Аомори). Примерно в 10-х числах мая цветением сакуры, наконец-то, могут насладиться и жители острова Хоккайдо. Традиция любования цветущей сакурой возникла при императорском дворе в эпоху Хэйан (794—1185). Аристократия, изощрявшаяся в изяществе и изысканности манер, проводила часы под цветущими деревьями, наслаждаясь легкими напитками, салонными играми и складыванием стихов. В коротком блистательном цветении сакуры аристократы видели глубокий смысл: размышляя о быстротечности жизни, они отождествляли опадающие цветы сакуры с храбростью и чистотой помыслов.

ATLETIK - Det blev til en flot bronzemedalje for Daniel Jørgensen fra Vejle Atletik Klub i dagens 100-meter finale ved para-VM i Qatar, hvor han løb i tiden 12,47 sekunder.
FODBOLD - Weekendens kampe i 1. division er færdigspillet, og det giver en stilling, hvor Lyngby og Vendsyssel efterhånden er trukket fra i toppen, mens de tre lokale hold - AC Horsens, Vejle Boldklub og FC Fredericia - i øjeblikket kæmper om tredjepladsen sammen med Silkeborg IF, der her til eftermiddag vandt 3-2 på udebane i Roskilde.
FODBOLD - RETTELSE! Det var ikke Bubacarr Sanneh, der scorede sejrsmålet i AC Horsens' 1-0-sejr over HB Køge, men derimod forsvarskollegaen Anders Østli. HUSK, at du kan læse alt om kampen i morgendagens avis.
Vinderne i dag. Selvom Sanneh blev noteret for målet i første omgang, var det Østli som havde sidste fod på #achhbk https://t.co/UF7eG5eX5X · AC Horsens
FODBOLD - BO HENRIKSEN VIL LADE SPILLERNE KLIPPE HANS HÅR HVIS........

Turen er kommet til AC Horsens-træneren Bo Henriksen, der har svaret på tre af jeres spørgsmål.

1) Var det ikke en ide at få forlænget med Kjartan Finnbogason, så man kunne tjene nogle penge på ham i tilfælde af et salg, Han har jo kontraktudløb til sommer og må frit og gratis forhandle med andre klubber til 1/1-2016?
- Vi fortæller ikke alt, hvad vi laver til pressen. Vi er i gang med attale med de spillere, vi gerne vil forlænge kontrakterne med. Det handler både om spillere, der har kontraktudløb til vinter og til sommer. Vi skal være påforkant denne gang i forhold til før denne sæson.

2) Jeg ved, at "målet" er top 6 - men hvad nu hvis I ender på en af de tre øverste pladser efter 33 kampe - er der så en plan for, hvad der skal ske?
- Lige nu forbereder vi os på en ny sæson i 1. division. Det er rettidig omhu at gøre det. Det er vores plan A, men hvis det senere hen viser sig, at den ikke er aktuel, så lover jeg, at vi nok skal blive klar til også at løse den udfordring.

3) Hvis AC ender med at ryge op i Superligaen, må spillerne så få lov at til klippe dig?
- Bare jeg ikke bliver klippet helt skaldet, så er det en aftale. Er det mon en spiller, der har stillet det spørgsmål?

FODBOLD - AC Horsens har en Stankov, og Vejle Boldklub har en Stankov. Folkebladet har taget en snak med Aleksandar og Antonio Stankov om deres særprægede grå hårpragt. Her kan du få forklaringen på, hvorfor de er gråhårede som 24-årige.
BASKETBALL - Horsens IC besejrede som bekendt SISU Basketball med 95-74 her til eftermiddag på hjemmebane i Forum Horsens. Folkebladets fotograf Morten Pape var på plads i hallen, og her er et par af de billeder, han fik taget.

FODBOLD - Vi har fået slutfløjtet på SEAS NVE Park, og det ender med en sejr på 1-0 til AC Horsens over HB Køge. Bubacarr Sanneh var manden bag sejrsmålet, der bringer De Gule op på tredjepladsen i Bet25 Ligaen.

BASKETBALL - Kampen er slut i Forum Horsens, og Horsens IC gav Lennart Jensen den perfekte jubilæumsgave, da de besejrede SISU Basketball med 95-74. Dermed er Arnel Dedic's mandskab fortsat ubesejret i Basketligaen. Iffe Lundberg blev HIC-topscorer med 23 point. HIC's næste ligakamp er tirsdag den 1. november i Svendborg.
HÅNDBOLD - Mens herrernes stime i Skanderborg Håndbold blev brudt med nederlaget til HC Midtjylland, så fortsætter klubbens kvindehold med at vinde. I fredagens udekamp mod Bjerringbro FH blev det til sjette sejr på stribe, da Skanderborg vandt med 26-20. Amalie Wichmann blev topscorer i kampen med hele ni mål. Resultater betyder, at Skanderborg Håndbold fortsat fører 1. division.

How to Wash Your Face

We all wash our face, but are we really making the most of the process?

Storified by Neutratone · Mon, Oct 26 2015 16:46:01

1. Wash Before Bed

Obviously we're not saying keep your face dry during your morning shower. But the bulk of your routine should be at night. There is such thing as over washing your face, and to avoid it you should only engage in the full routine once a day. So why before you sleep? When you hit the sack, you do not want the dirty and oily buildup accumulated during your waking hours to stay on your skin while you're asleep. For this to work though, you should make sure your pillowcases are always clean. Trivial, we know, but still a good first step.

2. Understand Water Temperature

Quick rule of thumb: start with hot water, and end with cold. People who shave regularly know this already, but in case you don't, here is the reason why: it's for the pores. Hot water opens the pores, allowing the cleanser to really get deep in there. Once we're done, we should be sure to rinse it off with cold water. This closes the pores off, and helps prevent unwanted dirt and grime from entering. At the end of the day, it's basic science! Heat expands, cold contracts.

3. Use the Appropriate Cleanser

There are several different kinds of skin, and we each have our own type. Therefore, we should make sure to use the right cleanser for us. Dealing with excessively oily skin? Shy away from an oil-based cleanser? Fighting dryness, there's something for that too!

4. Exfoliate

Don't ignore this step. It's basically giving your skin a fresh start! Now, you shouldn't be exfoliating all the time— but then again, it all comes down to what kind of skin type you have. But as a rule of thumb, about twice a week is good.

5. Moisturize!

Don't forget! Moisturizing keeps the skin nice and hydrated, and by extension— healthy! Lotions may be fine during the warmer months, but keep in mind that when it gets a bit chillier, going with a thicker cream is a better decision. And if you find yourself in the throes of the fight to retain youth, you may want to check out our all-in-one system!

Storified by Joya Dass · Mon, Oct 26 2015 16:46:42

Me at 3 or 4 years old, growing up in Pennsylvania, undoubtedly thinking up my next fantastic event. LOL

Each day, one attendee will answer the question "If I could be a Bollywood dancer, I would be....." I would be Tabu from the 1999 movie "Thakshak." I am a purist when it comes to my art forms, and I just love the classical dance choreography by Ganesh Acharya in “Mujhe Rang De. ” Plus, Tabu has 'to-die-for' abs."
Nagina Sethi Abdullah, who is Founder of MasalaBody.com says she would be Sri Devi from the 1986 movie "Nagina." "Since the movie was named after me (wink wink) of course I love it! Sri Devi's sexy, hypnotic snake dance in a spectacular white lengha is classic and unforgettable."
Dharmangi Pandya Bhatia is CFO at a hedge fund at Citigroup. She says if she could be a Bollywood dancer she would be Priyanka Chopra dancing to "Desi Girl" from the 2008 Abhishek Bachan movie "Dostana."
"I love the charm Priyanka brings to the screen and to the stage. She has a passion for dance that is palpable when you see her perform. I am a former CFO now fully committed to managing my daughter's passion for the performing arts."
Dr. Sonali Khanna Lal is a sports medicine physician with her own practiceIntegrative Spine and Sports. She says if she could be a Bollywood dancer she would be Malaika Arora Khan from the 1998 movie 'Dil Se.' "Dancing to Chaiyya Chaiyya on top of a moving train no less! She is confident, sexy and stunning. Everytime I hear that song I want to find a train and jump on it and start dancing. Of course with ShahRukh!"
Still in awe of the amazing caliber of women turning up to November 4th LadyDrinks.
Aditi Haté is a Coordination Officer at United Nations Department for Peacekeeping Operations. She says, if she was Bollywood dancer, she would be Rishi Kapoor in the song "Om Shanti Om" from the 1980 movie "Karz." Why? Aditi says "He got to wear a super sparkly outfit. He performed on a giant revolving record, and he was busting out dance moves like nobody was watching. What's not to love? Back then I thought Chintu Kapoor's "blouse" was the height of high fashion! Love that song! Toh bolo oooommmm."
Arden Greenspan-Goldberg wishes she was Kareena Kapoor in "You are my Soniya" from the big budget 2001 Karan Johar movie "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham." In her mind's eye, Hrithik Roshan would be playing too-cool-for-school, but when Arden/Kareena walks into prom night in a red hot two piece outfit and the wind blowing through her long black hair, all of his defenses come down. "He would turn to me and tell me I was his "Soniya!"
Wow! That's pretty intense Miss Arden! who by the way has an Indian daughter in law!
"Bring on Bollywood!" says Christine Chen of Christine Chen Yoga and Author of Happy-Go-Yoga. "I’m into it!" She says she would imagine herself as a contestant on the popular TV show "So You Think You Can Dance!" " I would be… way outside my comfort zone. Sore. Wearing a really bright, shiny costume that would match the glee of expressing joy through movement and song."
Ruchi Mehta, has her own pediatric and sports medicine practice All Star Pediatrics and Sports Medicine in Bloomfield, New Jersey. She says if she was a Bollywood dancer, she would be Madhuri Dixit's character Pooja from the 1997 Yash Chopra film 'Dil To Pagal Hai.' Ruchi says, "Not everything is mind over matter. The title of the film tells us that the heart is crazy. Pooja's character agrees to marry the man who is 'good on paper,' but by film's end, she can't help but admit her true love. Still she handles the moment with grace, love and friendship, which makes her a "symbol of womanhood" to me, both on and offscreen."
Nazreen Bacchus is a professor of sociology at Hofstra University and Queens College (CUNY). Here she's seen with her grandmother who inspired her love of Bollywood films and songs. She says if she was a Bollywood dancer, she would be Madhuri Dixit in the song 'Badi Mushkil Baba Madi Mushkil' from the 2001 Rajkumar Santoshi movie 'Lajja.' The movie recounts the story of four ladies and their standing in society. Madhuri plays an outspoken theater actress who scorns the norms of society and does as she wants. She says, "Madhuri's character in this film struggles with parental pressure and cultural pressure to get married. She plays along at first, but eventually finds the courage to stand up for what she believes and terminates the engagement. To me, Madhuri is a pioneer for South Asian women's empowerment. She used her position as an actress to highlight the gender inequalities that exists in South Asian cultures."
Reena Chawla is the Founder/President of REEBEL, a brain enrichment consultancy offering neuroscience-based programs for adults and STEM programs for kids. If she was a Bollywood dancer, she would be Katrina Kaif in 'Kamli' from the 2013 movie 'Dhoom 3!' "I prefer the bold, yet flowy moves of non-traditional dance styles. I love how tall, sexy, and lithesome Katrina is while performing the intense-- and acrobatic-- moves in the song. It gets my pulse racing every time."
