Don't look at people and they won't bother you. If you engage, you're more likely to be asked for money, harassed or to find yourself in some kind of conversation you'd really rather not be having, or an interaction you never asked for. Or worse. Everybody knows about the desperation and crime in the inner city. Everyone looks happy. And I notice something else. I notice that people are looking at each other. And then I realize that I'm not wearing my "street face" anymore. I'm looking at people's faces, too, into their eyes. And I smile. And I feel happy. I am walking down Portage Avenue and I am happy. There are elves, there are lights, there's a drumbeat in the midst of the crowd's excitement. There's a middle-aged man sporting reindeer antlers on his head, there's an elderly lady we...

I find it amazing that after 5,000 years of domestication they still get the urge to migrate," zoo curator Bob Wrigley said. "And even in the zoo setting where they are all born in captivity that behaviour is still demonstrated. Alas, for the zoo's reindeer, they can't get far when their migratory urges run up against a metal fence. So, a bull with large antlers played Rudolph and led 17 other reindeer around the field. "Some people say this activity that reindeer show indicates the reindeer are very emotionally disturbed," said Robert Smith, a retired University of Alaska Fairbanks professor. "If the surface they're walking on is fairly solid, they wear down their toenails so their hooves are in very good condition for entering winter when there's snow on the ground."

We'll have storms and people will still be out there," said Shirley Murray, manager of volunteer services. "They won't miss delivering to their clients. "It's the best thing that's ever happened to us," Shirley said. They have meals delivered three days a week, said Muir, whose hands have become "crippled." "This is the one contact some of these clients have with a person during the day," the volunteer said. "It's really important." That's one of the reasons she's helping out on Christmas Day during a snowstorm.

All of us at JCI Winnipeg are very happy to hear that the people (allegedly) responsible for this senseless act of vandalism have been caught," Junior Chamber International Winnipeg president Jamie Alyce Jurczak said in a statement. "Now they will have to face the music and account for their behaviour. The float, which was in storage, was severely damaged. Five of the papier mâché reindeer were pushed off the float and a sixth was tagged with black paint or a marker. The hooves and antlers were also broken beyond repair, plus Rudolph's muzzle and its glowing red light were smashed off.
The [Rudolph] reindeer had a specially wired red glowing nose but the entire muzzle is gone," [Jamie Alyce Jurczak] said. "Either Rudolph's nose was stolen or it was smashed beyond all recognition. "I just can't believe that someone would do that to Santa Claus," Jurczak said. "It's the float of the parade ... it's the one that all the kids look forward to seeing."
..."The hooves and antlers are broken beyond repair. "The Rudolph reindeer ha...
The first time I saw it (one of the reindeer) I thought it wasn't real," Quiara Francisco, 8, a Grade 3 student at [Pinkham], squeaked, her eyes as wide as dinner plates. "But when I got close -- IT WAS REAL!!! "You don't want carrots?" [Matt Sheridan] would say in mock surprise, then quickly add: "Dude, how many carrots do you want?" From then on, everything was a blur. A blur of wide-eyed children giving heartfelt hugs. A blur of kids holding out crumpled Christmas lists. And pulling on Santa's beard. And loudly asking tough questions: "What are the names of your reindeer?" "Is that your real beard?" "What's your elf's name?"
