Drinking Alcohol May Significantly Enhance Problem Solving
14/04/2012 05:47
Scientists found that men who either drank two pints of beer or two glasses of wine before solving brain teasers not only got more questions right, they also were quicker in delivering correct answers, compared to men who answered the questions sober.
While the latest findings go against the traditional beliefs that alcohol impairs analytical thinking and rational thoughts, lead author Professor Jennifer Wiley of the University of Illinois at Chicago discovered that alcohol may enhance creativity problem solving by reducing the mind’s working memory capacity, which is the ability to concentrate on something in particular.
Beer anyone?

How To Make A Bird Feeder
One of my more recent trips to Hawerlak Park, I came across this bird feeder made out of a plastic one litre milk container.
The design is simple and very easy to build. The feeder is secured to the tree with nylon rope. This would make a good project for kids to build a feeder for a Mother's Day present.
The container needs to be well rinsed out with water. Cut an opening with a knife or scissors about two inches from the bottom of the container. The opening should be four inches or bigger if you so desire.
You will need to leave extra plastic at the top that forms a rain gutter and at the bottom that helps stiffen the plastic to form a perch for the birds to perch on.
Watching them feed is entertaining and will also provide a backdrop to photograph them. Chickadees are my favourite because they are so friendly.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

The Legacy Of Bart the Bear
Bart the Bear™ was born in a zoo in 1977 and adopted by Doug and Lynne Seus and trained to be in films. The Seuses grand adventures with Bart took them from the Austrian Alps to the bejeweled backstage of the Academy Awards. Bart appeared in hundreds of films, including "The Bear", "The Great Outdoors", "Legends of the Fall", "Clan of the Cave Bear", and "The Edge", among others. He passed away in 2000. This video is a tribute to Bart, the Seuses, and the conservation nonprofit they created to protect habitat for wild grizzlies, The Vital Ground Foundation. Since its founding in 1990, Vital Ground has helped to protect and enhance over 416,000 acres of habitat in Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Alaska, and British Columbia.

Demonstrations To Mark Child Abuse
April 11, 2012, marks one year since 4-month-old Delonna Sullivan died within six days of being mistakenly apprehended into child protective custody. See Edmonton Sun story.
Details of plans for two events/dates to celebrate the short life of baby Delonna, raise awareness, effect change and shine a light on this very dark issue follow. Stigma attached to Child Welfare has largely resulted in misinformation towards who actually comprise the Child Welfare System: AADL (Alberta Aids to Daily Living) reports with Government data: “70% of children in care” are children with special needs.
All across our great Country the mortality rate of children in "protection" is soaring above that of the rest of the child population. Alberta's own Grave Legacy: “We Apprehend the most children in the world.” – Muriel Stanley Venne, Aboriginal Leader.
Well-meaning as many are in the System, innocent children desperately need help. The most vulnerable are suffering loss of life. 13-year-old Samantha Martin, is one of the casualties: Velvet Martin and her family experienced first-hand negative effects as parents to a child born with disability referred to the System for supports, but instead out of home placement culminated in tragedy.
Velvet sought Amendment to Provincial Legislation which was achieved retroactive December 2006.
Alberta FSCD (Family Support for Children with Disabilities) Act, Section 2-3, Manual Amendments: Policy and Procedures in Family Centred Supports and Services. SAMANTHA'S LAW "The Family Support for Children with Disabilities Program to have separate legislation from that of child protection services."
Protecting Canadian Children will be hosting both Edmonton and Calgary events:
ANNOUNCEMENT:
Wednesday, April 11, 2012, 11:00 a.m., Edmonton
Members from Protecting Canadian Children in New Brunswick and Ontario will be in Alberta to help support Family Preservation. Alfredine (Linda) Plourde, Founder and Author of Protecting Canadian Children will be in attendance at both demonstrations.
The date was chose specifically in recognition of little Delonna Victoria Sullivan, baby daughter of Jamie Sullivan and granddaughter of Marilyn Koren who died six days following apprehension by the Province. Everyone is encouraged to come out and celebrate the life of Baby Delonna Sullivan and pay respect to surviving family. Protecting Canadian Children representatives will also travel to Calgary to meet southern residents on Friday, April 13th at the Court House.
We will meet on the steps of the Edmonton Alberta Legislature on Wednesday morning at 11:00 a.m. Hope to see many of you there!
Following the event at the Edmonton Legislature, those who wish to offer continued support are welcome to attend the Office of Child & Youth Family Services, where Delonna was apprehended: Leduc Neighborhood Centre, Human Services, 4901 - 50 Avenue, Leduc, AB.
Friday, April 13, 2012, 11:00 am, Calgary
A walk will begin at Olympic Plaza and end with a Rally at the McDougal Centre.
APRIL marks Awareness against Child Abuse.
Our children need us! We must continue this battle to mourn for the dead and protect the living! Our children need us!
Politicians are encouraged to attend events to show Canadians that they value our Country’s greatest resource: Our CHILDREN.
Velvet Martin and Linda Plourde, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

Welcome To SAP And Good Morning!
Pull up a chair, grab a cuppa hot coffee and spend 10 minutes to start your day with St. Albert's only daily news site.
Not from St. Albert? Not to worry, there's plenty for you too.
A great way to put a smile on your face before you begin your day.
Have an opinion, gripe or grin to share? Use our Live Chat feature below to share it with other readers. Try our frequent recipes. Give our puzzles a whirl or a game of hangman. Check out our outstanding linked photos. Got a story or photo to share? Want to wish someone happy birthday or anniversary? We love your stuff from any location. Go ahead, send it in. We dare you!
Best of all, it's all free thanks to our advertisers. Enjoy and please, tell your friends. And be sure to check back often each day as the site can be updated as events occur.
NO To Arts Gallery
On April 2, Council referred the AH&F proposal for a $4.6 million gallery to the Capital Budget Process, instead of approving allocating money to it immediately. This is a delay, but this project will be supported by at least Crouse, Heron and Brodhead during the capital budget.
The Gazette, on Saturday April 6, printed an editorial that was pretty straightforward about the project and why it was not needed. Read it here.
You now have another opportunity to let Council and the public know your views on expenditures of this type. Why? Because the AH&F is organizing a letter writing campaign to try to garner Council support. As a result, you may want to make Council (e-mail or phone calls) and the Gazette (letter to the editor) aware of your thoughts on the issue.
Please consider doing so.
Thanks you, and I hope to see you at this months meeting, April 24, 7:30 pm at the Community Hall.
Lynda Flannery
Director and Past President
St. Albert Taxpayers Association
SINC SAYS:
Will the people over at Arts And Heritage Foundation never stop begging for more money out of taxpayers pockets? It's time to call a full stop on these out-of-control artsy types and tell them the joy ride is over. Council needs to grow some cajones and tell them, sorry, but the answer is no. So please follow Lynda's advice and counter that AHF letter writing campaign with some letters of our own. Here is a list of council member's email addresses for your convenience:
Nolan Crouse: mayor@st-albert.net
Cathy Heron: cheron@st-albert.net
Wes Brodhead: wbrodhead@st-albert.net
Len Bracko: len.bracko@bracko.ca
Roger Lemieux: jrcl@shaw.ca
Cam MacKay: mackaycam@shaw.ca
Malcolm Parker: mjparker@telus.net
Why not attach a copy of the Gazette editorial, (link above) as well as this graphic of our poll on the subject when nearly 80 local residents responded with a whopping 90% NO:
Wiebo Ludwig Dies At 70
Don:
Wiebo Ludwig has left us, at a youthful age 70. One regrets his passing. I'll take more Wiebos, and fewer of the round-heeled and weak-kneed.
Here's a rather respectful in memoriam.
At his funeral, I'd think this old black hymn would be appropriate: "And before I'll be a slave I'll be buried in a my grave. And go home to my Lord and be free."

He was a man who stood tall for his beliefs, but I supect he took more than a few secrets to his grave.

Playing Tonight At LB's Pub
April 10
Paul Finn (Guitar)
Joe Piccolo (Sax and vocals)
Paul - gigged for years with many top notch blues acts and artists. Paul also hosted the famous Saturday afternoon blues jam at the King Eddie in Calgary for years and has toured across our great country on numerous occasions. He is a mainstay and very respected bass guitarist on the blues scene and a total fireball on the guitar. Paul's passion for the blues speaks for itself through his music when he is on stage.
Joe - his musical influences come from growing up in Windsor and he has played with the royalty of the blues in the Detroit scene. Whether you want to jump the blues or rock the night away, Piccolo's lively vocals and sax will rock the house. Joe’s musical background is rooted in the history of the Motor City Blues and R&B tradition. Fronting and playing tenor saxophone along side such Detroit legends as Sir Mack Rice (original Mustang Sally), international blues legend Lazy Lester, Chicago Pete, Alberta Adams (W.C.Handy award nominee), R.J. Spangler (W.C. Handy nominee), and Mr. Joe Weaver (Funk Brothers, Standing in the Shadow of Motown), Piccolo has honed his craft under the finest of Detroit Blues and R&B royalty. This will be a second time appearance with Paul Finn back to our fan base by special request.

Just One Question
10/04/2012 05:44
The instructor said, "Ladies, remember that exercise is good for you, walking is especially beneficial. It strengthens the pelvic muscles and will make delivery that much easier. Just pace yourself, make plenty of stops and try to stay on a soft surface like grass or a path."
"Gentlemen, remember, you're in this together. It wouldn't hurt you to go walking with her. In fact, that shared experience would be good for you both."
The room suddenly became very quiet as the men absorbed this information. After a few moments a man, name unknown, at the back of the room, slowly raised his hand.
"Yes?" said the Instructor.
"I was just wondering if it would be all right if she carries a golf bag while we walk?"
Brings a tear to your eye doesn't it? That kind of sensitivity just can't be taught.

Grandpa, What Is Sex?
09/04/2012 05:39
The grandfather was surprised that she would ask such a question, but decided that if she's old enough to know to ask the question, then she's old enough to get a straight answer.
Steeling himself to leave nothing out, he proceeded to tell her all about human reproduction and the joys and responsibilities of intercourse.
When he finished explaining, the little girl was looking at him with her mouth hanging open, eyes wide in amazement.
Seeing the look on her face, the grandfather asked her, "Why did you ask this question, honey?"
The little girl replied, "Grandma says that dinner will be ready in just a couple of secs."

* Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half, and rub it on your Forehead. The throbbing will go away. (I prefer to soak the lime in Gin and rub it on my tongue first) Amen!
* Don't throw out all that leftover wine: Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces. Left over wine? What's that?
