Stephen Harper versus this onion ring

February 5th, 2010

Onion ring vs Stephen HarperEveryone talks about how much they dislike Stephen Harper but few people take the initiative to do anything about it.

Someone created a Facebook Page for this onion ring and their social experiment is to determine if this onion ring can conjure up more supporters than Stephen Harper

I am proud to say that an onion ring has more fans on Facebook than Stephen Harper does. As I write this there are 30,136 people who are fans of Stephen Harper. There are 73,600 fans of this onion.

Young China Girl Gives Birth

February 2nd, 2010

A nine year old child has given premature birth via c-section in China this week.

There was no comment as to the conception of the child.

It may not be the world record, the record was set by a girl in Peru, but it’s not far off.

Flash Mob St. John’s, NL – Trick or Treat for UNICEF

November 1st, 2009

SPARK Marketing, in conjunction with Connie Parsons School of Dance, Empire Theatres Studio 12 St. John’s and BIGTIMEsmalltime.com put off a flash mob dance of Thriller in the Avalon Mall to raise awareness for UNICEF.

It is especially interesting because this year my friends and I launched our Thriller dedication video where we reshot the Thriller video shot for shot for fun.

UNICEF has always been known for their campaign pushes during Halloween. Surely people remember those Halloween Trick of Treat boxes.

The world’s only wooden skyscraper in Russia

August 21st, 2009

In Arkhangelsk, Russia, a man known as Nikolai Sutyagin has built a homemade skyscraper out of his house.

Wooden Skyscraper in Russia

During Perestroyka he inherited some money and with that he started to build his dream home. He hired an architect who planned the first two floors.

From there he spent the next fifteen years building his house upwards. Right now it soars high over the city with thirteen floors. It is the taller structure in the city looking down on even the tallest cement buildings.

Some people in the city love it; others are afraid for their homes and for their skyline.

Either way, this is one interestingly ambitious project.
