Delhi 2 Dublin . Never heard of them? Think Bhangra meets Celtic Techno Dance party. I love this band. I've seen them half a dozen times at least. They bring out my best dancing fool self. Their concerts make me happy. Listening to their music makes me happy. They rock. Take a listen . The first time I saw them was at Kaleido Festival in 2010 . It was an epic good time. Then, surprisingly, they came back to the Kaleido Festival just a year later in 2011 ! And imagine how happy I was to find out they were playing the Kaleido Festival in 2014! I've seen them a couple times at the Starlight Room here in Edmonton, and they were at Folk Fest in 2011 and 2013. Plus they're coming back to play The Arden next spring! I never ever use the video function on my iPhone. I never take concert video. Except I apparently started a tradition in 2010 and have since take 3 Delhi 2 Dublin concert videos of each time they've come to the Kaleido Festival. Did you miss their latest outing in

It's a post Olympic year and wow were there some interesting curling team swaps, changes, moves and retirements! This year, Grand Slam of Curling has a great team line up tracker!  Here's what I've gathered over the summer though. What/who am I missing? Women's Teams Jones: Team Jones will stay together for another Olympic run.  Bernard: Cheryl Bernard has retired . Susan O'Connor is skipping a new team made up of Lawnie MacDonald, Denise Kinghorn and Corrie Morris.   Kleibrink: Last year's team is done, and Shannon has a new team. Nedohin: Beth Iskew is taking some time off, so Amy Nixon has moved from star fifth to third for real. Webster: Geri-Lynn Ramsay is still staying , but Cathy O & Sam Preston have been replaced by Jessie Kaufman & Becca Konschuh.  Carey: Chelsea Carey has moved to Edmonton ! Her new team is Laura Crocker, Taylor McDonald & Jen Gates. Scott: Team Kelly Scott has retired . Lawton: Team remains as is. Homan: Alison Kreviazuk

Recently, I had the opportunity to volunteer for Habitat for Humanity ! It's something I've always wanted to do, so when our university's faculty association put out a call to volunteer (on my birthday!) I had to sign up! The response was so good that they split up the university's volunteers: some went to the build site, and myself and another coworker from my department were with the group at the prefab shop. I was nervous about the day, but figured there was nothing better to do on my birthday than help better someone else's life so I was also really excited! It was an early wake up call, as we all met at the prefab shop (which turns out is quite near my house). They are currently building the biggest Habitat community in Canada - a 64 unit site in Edmonton's deep south. It was interesting to learn more about the organization. Families (with at least 1 child) have to apply, must meet the income range, must pay their (interest free) mortgage and put in 500 hou

In early August, I had the opportunity to volunteer for another major sporting event - this time for FIFA! I was lucky to be able to volunteer for the FIFA U20 Women's World Cup, held in Edmonton, Toronto, Moncton and Montreal. I knew the event was coming, so stalked the websites and asked the Canadian Soccer Association on twitter when the volunteer application would open. I can't quite remember how far in advance I applied, a year maybe, 8 months? I was contacted by email, and then had to do a phone interview with the volunteer coordinator! Seriously, a phone interview! Following that came more emails, questions about uniform sizing, volunteer newsletters etc. There was a training evening at the end of July. Unfortunately due to bad timing, I had to miss a great night of music at Interstellar Rodeo to attend, but somehow I'd ended up being classified as a Team Leader, and figured it would be bad if I missed the training. Sigh. Anyways, training was useful and not a compl
