This wonderful city has two University based Community Radio stations. These type of stations strive to give the community an alternative to commercial radio with large amounts of local, Canadian and interest driven content. Last year in July World Beats and Eats held a fundraiser for [i]CKCU[/i], and this year we pay tribute to [b]CHUO[/b]. They are self described as “quite the rowdy bunch. 250+ volunteers and staff united by our love of the diversity and medium that is campus/community radio.” [b][i]The Sweets:[/i][/b] -Planet Coffee (24A York St - 613-789-6261) - There is one seat in Planet Coffee with a view that looks between two gorgeous buildings lined with trees. It is by far the best coffee shop seat in all of Ottawa. There is one sweet at Planet Coffee that is just about as delightful to look upon. On September 1st we will sample what is arguably the most well refined Double Chocolate Cake in Ottawa. -Simmilicious (simmidixit@hotmail.com) - This small creative catering venture is dedicated to providing dreamy sweets and treats for the diverse palette. I have seen the fares of Simmilicious at all the cool parties around Ottawa. I was very happy to have them at our little party. -Dolfin Chocolate [ www.dolfin.be ] - This fine Belgium chocolate is made only better by their exquisite, reusable packaging. Dolfin Chocolates are some of the most creative and carefully made chocolate I have ever had the pleasure of overindulging in. On September 1st we will be treated to samples of their Neopolitian Squares. -The Tea Store (53 York St. - 613-241-1291 - [ www.teastore.ca ] - Walking into a tea shop and finding a massive wall filled with different varieties, flavors and types of tea could be daunting if it was not for the experienced, helpful, and informative staff at The Tea Store. September 1st we will be treated to three well selected teas from this Byward Market based shop. [b][i]The Beats:[/i][/b] This month the giveaways are provided by Ninja Tune/Counter Records- Ninja Tune and their brand new sister label Counter Records, are providing us with their first ever release on the label. We are VERY VERY lucky to have giveaways of Pop Levi’s Blue Honey EP [ www.poplevi.com ] Always swanky in house beats. ** 7-9pm beats w/ Emily Jones [ ] E18hteen, Social, Par-fyum) ** 9-10:30pm Special Guest Andrew Carter (6ix degree media, City Deep) [b][i]Live Art by:[/i][/b] Hayden Menzies style is to me, sketches and drawings with depth and closure. Some artists shy away from certain parts of the body in their works, like hands. Hayden does not. Hayden Menzies seems to love hands. [ www.haydenmenzies.com ] He will be there like a rockstar, painting live. [b][i]Raffle Items:[/i][/b] This months Raffle items include the following: Zeke Artstuff shirts, and a Season Subscription for two to the 06/07 Season of the Great Canadian Theatre Company ************************************************** ****************************************** September 1st- 2006 - 7-10pm Mercury Lounge 56 Byward st.
