Forget 'What are your strengths and weaknesses?' If you want to get the real dope on prospective employees, ask job candidates these seven questions.

Ocean Spray and Decas Cranberry Sales have both claimed victory in their ongoing legal fight over sweetened dried cranberries. Ocean Spray has accused Decas of stealing its patented dried cranberry technology, while Decas has accused Ocean Spray of seeking to monopolize the sweetened dried cranberry market through frivolous lawsuits. Decas says it doesn’t use Ocean Spray’s [...]

New Adventure: Carassauga
With only our passport, we visited 7 different countries in a single day. We were greeted by friendly people, offered scrumptious food and drinks, and entertained by singers, dancers and musicians. By the end of our day, we were exhausted but extremely happy and entirely satiated. It was amazing that we never had to leave the city of Mississauga to have such an amazing cultural experience. Yes, you may have guessed that we recently attended Mississauga ’s Carassauga festival!
New Adventure: Toronto After Dark Film Festival
Don’t be surprised if you see something or someone very frightening hanging out in the Annex neighbourhood of Toronto this week… be it a zombie, a vampire or worse! Dressing up is all part of the horrifyingly good times to be had at this year’s After Dark Film Festival hosted by The Bloor Cinema.
New Adventure: Toronto Zoo
There are a few trails to choose from if you’re looking for a good hike in the woods or alongside the lake. The Vicki Baron Trail follows the lakeshore, taking you past a wee little beach area, through forest and then into fields filled with flowers. Where there are this many flowers, there is bound to be bumble bees! I don’t believe that I have seen so many bees in one field since I was a little kid (let’s face it, when you’re a kid, you’re a little closer to the ground and perhaps a little more concerned with the fact that your hands and legs are in the bumble bees’ field of vision). We really enjoyed standing still and admiring the size and technique of the bees as they buzzed from one flower to the next, while listening to the harmony of at least three or four different singing birds.

New Hike: Glen Haffy Conservation Area
As it is still early season, considering that many conservation areas only open in late April or early May, we were surprised but not overly shocked by the fact that there was a small but powerful sign on the trailhead that said that the trails were closed. Since there wasn’t anyone to ask about whether or not this warning really needed to be heeded, we took our chances and proceeded with caution. We brainstormed what could possibly be a good reason to close a trail and came to the conclusion that it must have been due to the fallen branches and general overgrowth along the trail.
New Hike: Shade's Mills Conservation Area
Even though we pulled in about three hours before closing time on its first weekend, we were still pretty surprised to see no other car in the parking lot and only one other person (and their dog) along the trails. We’re thinking that this probably isn’t the norm during the warmer, sunnier and less wet months of July and August. We followed the Toyota Trail along the river and across the footbridge to the other side of the conservation area. The trail map came in handy after we decided to take a side-trail only to find our planned return route inundated by the overflowing lake. So, rather than wade back towards whence we came, we opted for an alternate route along the well-marked trail (i.e., there is actually a marker that says “EXIT” and points you in the right direction!)
New Hike: Dumfries Conservation Area
Right in the middle of Cambridge , Dumfries was originally a piece of land that was donated to the Queen but to be maintained for the benefit of the local public. The Grand River Conservation assumed responsibility for the land about 30 years ago with permission for the donator, Mr. P.R. Hilborn.
New Travel Log: #10 Winter Camping in Algonquin Park
Our last winter camping experience in Algonquin was in a yurt—comfy, warm and dry. As promised to ourselves, we planned out yet another winter camping trip but this time we opted for trying out our tent with what we hoped would be the same results—comfy, warm and dry.
New Adventure: Dog sled racing in Haliburton
Being that this was our first experience of a dog sled derby, we really didn’t know what to expect. To say that we were pleasantly surprised, would be an understatement. It is so incredible to see how wild and excited the dog teams get at the start gate. Yipping, barking, hopping up and down, all psyched up for the big race—these dogs were just so pumped to get running!
New Adventure: Learning to Scuba Dive with Happy Divers Den
After researching local dive shops, visiting their sites and contacting them by phone, we decided to put our scuba diving fate in the hands of Happy Divers Den in Streetsville , Ontario . Candy Marston, owner and “Dive Momma” of this friendly little shop, answered all of our questions with facts and from personal experience. During our first visit to the shop, a dive “regular” popped in to return his empty tanks for refilling. We had a great conversation about scuba diving, how much of a thrill I was in for, and how most people get hooked on the sport right from their first dive.
New Hike: Burns Conservation Area
Part of the Halton Region’s collection of protected lands, Burns Conservation feels like a natural best kept secret. There were all of four other people in the area when we visited on a very sunny afternoon. Of course, it was extremely hot and humid—which could have accounted for the measly attendance. Even we almost didn’t make an afternoon of it, but not due to the sun’s spiky rays—thanks to the inundation of blood-sucking mosquitoes! Not two minutes up the trail and we were very rudely reminded of the fact that we had neglected our typical soak-down in insect repellent.
New Hike: Luther Marsh
Luther Marsh is fundamentally a bird sanctuary and home to many varieties of duck, sparrows, owls, and geese. Many areas are hailed as sanctuaries in order to restore bird populations, wooded areas and to rejuvenate watersheds. Fishing and hunting are permitted in some areas at certain times of the year.
Gay Pride revisited
Being sick as a dog, Nancy decided to stay home for gay pride this year... however I headed down alone to try to get some great pictures.
New Hike: Heart Lake
Heart Lake Conservation area is a natural oasis in the middle of urban sprawl-ville. Yes, as the GTA continues to grow out and up, it is becoming harder to find that taste of the natural world untainted by honking horns and that oh-so-lovely smell of smog. We were so pleased that we found this significantly sized conservation area a mere 20 minute drive along the 401/up the 410 from our home. We were equally pleased to see the sprawling picnic areas, a network of trails and a large lake!
New Photographic Location: Shooting moose in Algonquin Park
I know, I know... big surprise that Algonquin Park is a good place to shoot nature BUT did you know if you go at the beginning of May you are almost guaranteed to get some great shots of moose?
Hike Revisited: Hendrie Valley Trail
This is fast becoming my favorite place to go for hiking or animal watching. There is a huge assortment of animals, and if you have some time and patience, they will let you get close enough for a great picture.
