STAMPEDE SAFETY

 

The Greatest Show on Earth is just a few days away. This year the Calgary Humane Society is working with the Stampede to try to ensure animal safety, including making changes to steer wrestling. Desiree Arsenault of the Calgary Humane Society talked about what's being done to protect the animals.

FROM AGGRESSION TO COMPASSION    Watch this video

 

Razor Rick Titan takes us on a journey "From Aggression to Compassion" in his new book.  It chronicles his struggle with a broken neck that ended his wrestling career to trying to transition into "normal" society through spiritualism.  Rick even dropped a few impressions on BT!

SUNSCREEN SUGGESTIONS    Watch this video

 

This week is expected to be sunny with temperatures in the mid-twenties. We're finally getting into the heat of summer. Dr. Richard Haber with the U of C's Department of Dermatology gave us some suggestions on how to properly apply sunscreen to your young children.

 
CHICHI CHAPEAUS

 

Mo Fraser of Zsa Zsa's Hat Salon was here to show us some fun hats for summer. Of course, cowboy hats are a must for Stampede, but after that try a blingy ball cap, a cool fedora, a super big brim beach hat, a fabulous "made for the Royal Ascot" hat, or an ultra feminine retro-looking clouche (think Angelina Jolie in The Changeling).
