  Going out of boundsStreet Cents examines the world of skiers and boarders who are taking some pretty serious risks by going out of bounds. Every winter some of them go missing. Some make it back alive, others aren't so lucky and die of exposure before help arrives. Some are never found at all. Street Cents finds out what's behind the adrenaline rush and the danger and offers some tips on how to travel smart in the backcountry. Click here for the full story.   What should you not eat on a first date?  Frozen pizzasStreet Cents gets a group of hungry teens to do a blind taste test of four brands of rising-crust pizzas to see which ones taste the best and which ones actually compare to take out. Click here for the full story.  Rolling Stone MagazineSally Rayworth from Kentville, Nova Scotia says lately she's been pretty disgusted with Rolling Stone magazine. She says the cover photos they're using are degrading to women and that she subscribes to the magazine for the news about her favourite bands, not to get a rise off the cover page. Street Cents finds out what's behind the changes at Rolling Stone. Click here for the full story.  Skratch BastidPaul Murphy a.k.a. Skratch Bastid is a hip-hop DJ from Halifax, Nova Scotia. He saved up and bought his first set of turntables at age 17 (he's 20 now.) He does shows at local clubs and also tours North America and Europe. He recommends working hard to promote your business and doing something that you love.  Winsor pilatesAlexis Clark wants to know the best way to lose some weight and tone up her body.

Brokerage feesBranden from Vancouver, B.C. is unhappy because UPS charged him a bundle in shipping and brokerage fees when he had a replacement part for his inline skates shipped to Canada.
