Vice Mag – Fashion Issue Cover

Today I picked up the new Vice mag and with more excitement than usual due to the fact that is was the Fashion Issue. As I browsed through the pages, as I always do first I noticed a fw things:

  • New paper – 10% post consumer waste, environmentally friendly, printed in Canada
  • Some raised image on the cover that despite my efforts, I could not distinguish (and neither could my mates!)

This, after a quick search, is what I found…..

Vice Magazine Changes Everything As Usual

[SOURCE]
Vice Magazine, which was ironically abandoned by its target audience of dirty trendsetters at the exact moment it became popular, has finally discovered how to sell out IN SECRET. The new issue has an ad for BMW superimposed on the freaking cover itself—but it doesn’t appear until you turn out the lights! As long as you don’t read it in the dark, nobody will know you are bought and owned by corporations just like everything else in this rotten country, dude. This is a brilliant idea that may save the American print media and destroy the editorial/ advertising divide as we know it, and that’s really all we have to say about that. [Media In Canada]

The Olden Days

Oh
how
time
flies……
This is me with my friends back when I was only in grade 7 at William G. Davis. So crazy that most of us from bac
k then still keep in touch and hang out. It’s great to know who your friends are and live out your life with them. Its only when you get older that you really need the people you knew when you were young.

My New Zealand – The Haka

This video is of the New Zealand All Blacks doing the Haka, a traditional Maori War dance. My Dad used to do the Haka at rugby games when I was a little girl. He played some pretty hard core rugby in new Zealand before coming to Canada.

The haka as composed by Te Rauparaha begins with a chant:

Kikiki kakaka kauana!
Kei waniwania taku tara
Kei tarawahia, kei te rua i te kerokero!
He pounga rahui te uira ka rarapa;
Ketekete kau ana to peru kairiri
Mau au e koro e – Hi! Ha!
Ka wehi au ka matakana,
Ko wai te tangata kia rere ure?
Tirohanga ngā rua rerarera
Ngā rua kuri kakanui i raro! Aha ha!

Then follows the main body of the haka:

Ka mate, ka mate! ka ora! ka ora!

Ka mate! ka mate! ka ora! ka ora!

Tēnei te tangata pūhuruhuru

Nāna nei i tiki mai whakawhiti te rā

Ā, upane! ka upane!

Ā, upane, ka upane, whiti te ra!

’Tis death! ‘tis death! (or: I may die) ’Tis life! ‘tis life! (or: I may live)

’Tis death! ‘tis death! ’Tis life! ‘tis life!

This the hairy man that stands here…

…who brought the sun and caused it to shine

A step upward, another step upward!

A step upward, another… the Sun shines!

♥ Short Story: My FIDO Casting Tour Experience

Q: Please tell me everything you can recall about the FIDO Casting Tour at Yonge & Dundas Square.

A: As I was looking with curiosity, a young girl stopped me on the sidewalk to fill out a short survey that would allow me eligibility to win $500. And of course, I welcomed the opportunity. After, I walked past the diaplay and gave my boyfriend a big kiss as he went back to work after lunch. I however, was curious to see what was going on with this truck, the people, and all the cute FIDO Dog photos. As I approached the front of the display I was welcomed by two friendly young men who asked if I wanted to have my picture taken for FIDO. I thought to myself, “I love having my picture taken!”, and walked up the stairs with a smile . I saw a crouded little studio as a man with a camera and a nice girl showed me to the far right side where there was a clean white background. He explained that he was going to ask me to show a bunch of expressions and I said with excement, “how fun!!”. I went throught happy, sad, angry, lonley, and excited. It was clear after viewing that EXCITED was my most pure expression. We chose my face to be matched with that of a playfull puppy and I thanked them for taking my photo. There was a big line to match your photo to a dog face on the spot and I close to have it sent via email and do the match at home. There are heaps of photos to match your face to and I believe it was over 5,000. With a smile, I told the boys outside to watch for my face as I walked into the sunshine and took a refreshing breath of cold air.

Alicia & 30 Reason’s why I’m not eating meat anymore:

I’m not a big fan of animals (as pets). I’ve never had a dog before. My cat and I broke up years ago, she lives with Dad now. However, just because I don’t like animals licking or touching my stuff, doesn’t mean I want to eat them instead. I’ve been considering going vegan for a long time now. I rarely drink milk and grew up lactose intolerant. Alicia Silverstone has a great new ad that was banned in the UK due to her being, um…naked. Its hot! In the spirit of loving hotness and wanting to try this out today is the day I’ve decided to try vegetarian.

I want to eat better, feel better, and stop supporting cruelty to chickens, pigs, cows, fish, and other animals raised for food. By signing my name, I pledge to explore vegetarianism for at least 30 days.
