piWoman's Day/i magazine is breaking into online radio with the official launch of a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/stations/RadioWD/featured.aspx" title="RadioWD"RadioWD/a, a new station powered by a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/" title="BlogTalkRadio"BlogTalkRadio/a. The magazine's editors host a different 30-minute show each day of the week, with topics ranging from fashion and recipes, to managing money—and readers can tune in live on the day of or catch archived episodes on their own time. Not bad for a publication that's been around since 1938. /p p VP and Publisher Carlos Lamadrid said that's precisely why iWoman's Day/i chose to launch an online radio show: to evolve and become "very interactive" like its reader base, and yet not err on the side of being too tech-oriented or trendy. "RadioWD is for the woman who's at her desk at 12 every day having a salad," he said. "Our content is inspirational—not aspirational—so she can open up her computer, listen to the show and get practical info on living well every day." The format is also cost effective: iWoman's Day/i doesn't have to pay for hosting or airtime, it just splits the station's ad revenue with BlogTalkRadio. Available ad formats include pre-roll audio and video clips, banners and widgets. /p p iWoman's Day/i plans to plug RadioWD heavily in Q1, with both print and online promotions, but it has been testing the platform with BlogTalkRadio for the past few months. Launched in 2006, BlogTalkRadio has partnered with a number of companies, including publishers like HarperCollins and companies like Sun Microsystems; and says it has broadcast over 170,000 shows since its inception.

Seeing as it's fudging cold just about everywhere north of Cairo I thought I'd share a soup recipe I made last night. Now I've made alot of different soups in my time but this is one of my favourites. I can't recall where I got the original recipe from but obviously credit to them!


You will need:


2 tbsp of olive oil or 1oz of butter
1 1/2lbs of Tomatoes (Skinned, deseeded and cut into 1" chunks)
2 tbsp of tomato puree
2 Cloves of garlic crushed
1 Decent sized onion, diced finely.
1 1/2 pints of good vegetable stock.
150-200g of haricot beans (either tinned or dried (if dried hydrate overnight as per pack instructions))
2 tbsp of fresh mint leaves (chopped finely)
Salt & Pepper to taste


Ok once you have prepared and chopped the tomatoes and onions...


...put large pan on medium heat
...add oil or butter to a large pan
...once oil is heated add oinions.
...sauté for about 4-5 mins until soft (do not allow to brown).
...add the crushed garlic and continue to cook for 3 more mins.
...add the chopped tomatoes and tomato puree and cook for another 3-5 mins until everything is nice and soft.
...add the stock.
...add plenty of pepper and a bit of salt (taste it and add more if necessary).
...(if using dried haricot beans add these now too as they take much longer to cook than tinned)
...bring to a rolling boil, then reduce to a simmer.
...if using dried beans simmer for 40-50mins until the beans are tender.
...if you are using tinned simmer for 25 mins, then add the beans and simmer for 5-10 more mins.
...Five mins before the end add the chopped mint.


Serve in warmed bowls with some thick crusty bread and chuck a couple of mint sprigs on top to make it look pretty!


I think this soup tastes great and makes a warming, hearty meal.

Here's a recipe for how to cover local elections. Take a bunch of bright and eager journalism students. Give them two weeks to fan out across the city and come back with multiplatform stories on issues as diverse as creating bike-only roads, spending almost $30 million on a dog pound and treating Vancouver's sewage.

This is what the first-year students at the Graduate School of Journalism at the University of British Columbia did for their final big assignment of the semester. The stories were published a few days ahead of Vancouver's local elections on November 15 on our student publication, TheThunderbird.ca.

Following the Election

Election news is one of the main staples of journalism, so having a vote on our own doorstep provided a great learning opportunity for the class. For this assignment, the students each had to find, research, report and produce a news story.

But they also have to come up with a sidebar that would complement their main piece, and consider what format this should take. This reflects our multiplatform approach in training graduate students to work across different media while at the same time maintaining quality content. We all know what a challenge that can be, even in the newsroom.

Many of the students are comfortable with technology and eager to experiment. But this is not just about adding video or audio to a story because you can. Students are taught to consider how using multimedia can enhance their journalism, making critical decisions about why one form of media works better than another to tell a particular story.

When student Alexis Stoymenoff wrote about the mayoral candidates singing at an event, she also posted short clips of the performances. The videos enhanced the written piece by allowing readers to see what the story was all about.

Another, Brandi Cowen, looked at how students new to the city were excluded from the local poll, producing a map showing different voting rules across Canada. This provided an easy and intuitive way to examine what could have been a rather dry written piece.

Unraveling City Politics

Despite all the new ways to inform readers about civic issues, some basics remain. Students can't forget that, no matter what tools you use to tell a story, the most important thing is to do the legwork to make sure that the underlying story is accurate. The students still had to research the local political scene, a task especially daunting given that many of them are from outside Vancouver and have only been living in the city for a few months.

Getting a grounding in local politics was key to this assignment, as this West Coast city has its own peculiarities. National parties aren't represented on a local level. Instead there are Vancouver-only parties. And local councilors are not elected according to city district. Rather, the ten candidates with the most votes overall are elected.

Therefore it was important to have faculty on hand who could help guide the students. Fortunately, our Canwest Visiting Professor for this semester is Vancouver Sun columnist Miro Cernetig. As a regular commentator on city politics, he brought considerable knowledge and connections to the classroom.

He was instrumental in persuading the premier of British Columbia, Gordon Campbell, to talk to the students about the political issues in the province.

Still, it proved hard for students to gain, in just a few weeks, the sort of understanding of local politics that a city reporter develops over years. Our advice was simple: Keep asking questions. Sometimes the hardest part of being a journalist is admitting that they don't know something, or don't quite understand it.

As budding reporters, it is understandable that a student might be concerned about appearing ignorant. But there is nothing wrong in pressing for a clearer explanation and asking for more details. Curiosity and perseverance pay off in the end.

Less is More

In the end, the students learned that not every story needed a multiplatform approach. Learning how to use multimedia to successfully tell a story sometimes involves learning when not to use multimedia. It's not about adding audio or video just because you can.

One challenge the students faced was working on stories that were not going to be published for a couple of weeks. Many started their newsgathering by attending debates between candidates or election-related events in communities. But the spot news generated by these events would be woefully out of date by our publication deadline. Instead, we urged the students to look at the issues that can come out of these events, and find the stories that brought the topic to life in a topical and relevant fashion.

Our aim was for the students to produce local stories on issues that were largely absent from the day-to-day coverage of the campaign in the mainstream media.

As a result, we ended up with a wealth of content. For example, at one of the mayoral debates, neither candidate was willing to commit funds to the Outgames due to be held in Vancouver in 2011, at a time when the city was spending millions on the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Student Magally Zelaya used that as the starting point to look at the reaction from Vancouver's gay community, which prides itself on its economic and cultural significance to the city. For this story, we decided that the most effective way to enhance the main story was a Q&A on the Outgames, rather than try to use multimedia just for the sake of it.

Another, Brent Wittmeier, reported on the debate over building homes in church parking lots and also chose text for the sidebar. Even in a multimedia medium like the web, sometimes plain old text may be the best way to enhance a story.

For the students, the local elections offered an opportunity to take their skills out of the classroom and apply them in a professional setting. It gave them a grounding in the politics of the city and a way to showcase their multiplatform journalism. But it was also about making decisions about using multimedia and thinking critically about how best to tell the story.
