Thousand take part in annual CIBC Run for the cure

Nearly six thousand people in Ottawa joined tens of thousands across the country Sunday morning to fight breast cancer.

The annual CIBC Run for the Cure is the largest, single-day, community-driven breast cancer event in Canada.

"Wouldn't it be great one day if we didn't have to run this race, ever, because there was no breast cancer," said Catherine Marion, the Ottawa event's honorary co-chair. 

"But for now we have to run, and we have to raisefunds so that's why we're all here today."

Many participants are running with loved ones in mind, including mothers, sisters, and friends who have at one time been diagnosed with breastcancer.

Laureen Harper is a regular participant.

"When you hear the stories it makes you think there’s no excuse for me not to get out here...it’s a lot of fun," she said.

Curtis Milobar is running for his mother, a two-time breast cancer survivor.

"I's become a tradition, so it keeps us closer together, and reminds us to be thankful that she's still there with us, to be our mom every year," Milobar said.

Meet Miriam Carey , suspect reportedly killed in the Capitol Hill shooting

Here's what we know about Miriam Carey, the woman identified in news reports as the suspect in a shooting incident that left Capitol Hill on lockdown for a brief period Thursday afternoon, and has now reportedly been shot dead by police.

According to the New York Post and the New Haven Register newspapers, Carey, a 34-year-old dental hygenist, was involved in the episode that began when she allegedly rammed her black Infiniti luxury sedan into a barricade near the White House. The incident ended when Carey led police on a high-speed car chase towards the U.S.Capitol. After repeatedly warning Carey to stop and get out of her car, the Capitol Police shot and killed her.

The altercation led to the U.S. Capitol being locked down for a brief period of time after shots rang out near Garfield Circle, in the vicinity of the Hart Senate Office Building.

Carey, who has ties to both Stamford, Conn., and Brooklyn, N.Y., hails from a condominium complex in Stamford called Woodside Green, according to the Register, and was permitted to work as a hygenist in Connecticut prisons, the Post reported. see more...

Five Things to know before the 'Scandal' season three premiere

‘Scandal’ may be TV’s most exhilarating drama. It also may be its most confusing. To get ready for Thursday’s season three premiere, here are the five biggest plot points from season two.

ABC’spolitical-drama-soap-opera-romantic-thriller is absolutely bonkers. In a given episode, a sex tape will be revealed, a main character will have a heart attack, the President and the First Lady will break up and get back together, and someone will try to kill Kerry Washington. The screen cuts to black. You breathe a sigh of relief. Then you have the realization that this isn’t the end of the episode, but just the first commercial break.

To call Scandal TV’s wildest series would be true, but also a gross understatement of the level of transfixing craziness the drama serves up week after week. Starring Kerry Washington as D.C. crisis manager Olivia Pope, wearer of the District’s most immaculate wardrobe,  each episode of Scandal merges a weekly case—the “scandal” of the week, if you will—with the torrid tale of Pope’s hot-and-cold-and-then-scalding-and-then-frigid love affair with the (very married) President of the United States (Tony Goldwyn). There’s also an election-rigging cover-up, a mole in the White House, and a top-secret government organization that’s attempting to assassinate the show’s lead, to name a few of the high-octane plot lines. see more ...

Tiger meshes well with kuchar at Presidents Cup

World No. 1 Tiger Woods, playing with his 19th different partner in a professional match-play team event for the USA, looked to be having fun from the practice range through the end of his round in Thursday's first session of the 10th Presidents Cup at MuirfieldVillage Golf Club. And there was plenty to celebrate as Woods and Matt Kuchar defeated Angel Cabrera and Marc Leishman, 5 and 4, to put the first point on the board for the USA.

The Americans, 7-1-1 in the matches and winners of the last four by an average of 4 points, needs 17 points to retain the Cup. The Internationals rallied to get within a point after the first day 3½-2½.

The win was Woods' record 21st in the Presidents Cup.

Woods and Matt Kuchar celebrated some of their eight birdies by mimicking the Fresh Prince of Bel Air handshake that Will Smith and DJ JazzyJeff made famous in the 1990's sitcom. Woods and Kuchar would tilt their heads to the side and do a mini high-five and then snap their fingers to their sides. see more...

U.S. Government shutdown

The U.S. government could close its doors Tuesday if Congress can’t reach a deal on a temporary spending budget bill, and that would jeopardize the paycheques of more than 800,000 Americans, as well as the country’s economic recovery.

It's political bickering between Democrats and Republicans in both the Senate and the House of Representatives, along with Republican in-fighting, that has brought the country to the brink of a shutdown yet again.

Once more, the U.S. Congress is deadlocked on a temporary spending bill that needs to pass in order to keep funding the federal government's operations, its employees and the services they provide.

Congress hasn’t passed any of the annual bills that fund various government agencies, so it has had to rely on stop gap measures that are known as continuing resolutions. The government needs to pass another one as soon as possible to keep the cash flowing beyond Sept. 30. more details...

Once Upon A time

OnceUpon A Time came back in a big way Sept. 29, as Emma (Jennifer Morrison) and her merry band of rescuers finally reached Neverland on the third season premiere. Following the episode’s final-moment twist — that Henry’s (Jared Gilmore) new travel companion is actually Peter Pan, the very villain he’s been trying to escape – HollywoodLife.com‘s sister site TVLine spoke with executive producer Eddy Kitsis about where season three will go from here.

For starters, what we saw from Pan (Robbie Kay) on the season premiere was merely a taste of the “twisted” behavior we can expect to see in the coming weeks. He may look like an innocent 15-year-old boy, but as Eddy notes, he’s not to be taken lightly.

“He has that wisdom, but he’s also got the spunk of that kid who’s still going to taunt you in the locker room,” Eddy explains.

Fans will really start to understand Pan’s intentions on the Oct. 6 episode. more details...
