The process is underway to hire an architect to build Halifax's new central library, a $55 million project to be built at the corner of Spring Garden and Queen in the heart of Halifax's downtown. Are we going about it the best way? And will we see a world class design erected as the new library, or just a run of the mill municipal building? HRM manager of infrastructure Phil Townsend talks about the process underway and his confidence that it will yield a great new library. Local architect Peter Henry weighs in on his opinion of how the city is going about finding a designer, and his ideas on improving the process, including launching an international architectural competition.

Whistleblowers at the International Energy Agency are claiming that US pressure is preventing the agency from being honest in its predictions of future world oil availability.
Tomorrow marks the end of an era,even more so than when they successfully did this in the 46 states before us already.
Banning smoking in VIRGINIA isn't like banning it in Utah. Frescoes of big,beautiful,golden brown tobacco leaves adorn our state Capitol's rotunda ceiling for chrisake!
But Virginia knew that it had to cave in sooner or later.
I mean,46 of the 50 states had some form of ban and it probably would've been even more embarrassing to be the FINAL holdout,that would've been just TOO cliche'(we'll leave being cliche' to the states that are more accustomed to that:Alaska,Alabama,WEST Virginia...y'all know who you are,you don't need me to tell you).
Keep in mind however,that of all the 47 states that have some kind of formal ban,ours is probably the most lax in that the penalties are negligible(maximum $25 fine).
This ban is the extremely watered down version of the more ambitious ones that have failed miserably before it,and essentially,the "ban" just makes official what 70% of restaurants in the state ALREADY do,so this is actually nothing more than a token gesture.
IN OTHER WORDS,
politics at it's best (or worst,depending on your level of cynicism).
The amount of money the tobacco and restaurant lobby spend in our state Capitol certainly can't be compatible to what they perceive they're losses would be had they not greased the wheels of legislature,or at the very least,is a wash.
The point being is that A LOT of money has changed hands between lobbyists and state officials over this matter and nothing was actually accomplished other than state official pockets getting fatter.
Personally,I could care less either way,it's just a good excuse to do a theme show!
