Rimbey fire department responded to a structural fire in Bluffton at approximately 9 p.m. April 20 and battled the blaze until early the next morning. The firemen worked hard in high winds and heavy snowfall to keep the fire from spreading, but the large workshop was completely destroyed. A tanker truck was on scene to supply water. APN Photo

Fire destroys workshop belonging to Bluffton couple By Treena Mielke A Bluffton couple who recently watched a large workshop close to their home go up in flames were quick to express their gratefulness and appreciation to emergency crews who were on the scene. “Both Ken and I are really, really apprecia-

tive. They were all very supportive. The firemen were just wonderful and the police as well. And the neighbors really gathered around and helped,” said Norma Harris. Rimbey Fire chief John Weisgerber said the fire call came in shortly after 9 p.m. April 20. Firemen struggled to quell the flames until around 2 a.m. but the workshop, which was

used for tools and storage, was destroyed. “It was a good-sized shed, about the size of a garage,” said Weisgerber. “It was destroyed but we were able to keep the fire from spreading to the house, which only received very minimal damage.”

Weisgerber said there was a strong wind the night of the fire and the firefighters stayed on the scene to make sure there were no hot spots which could cause further damage. The cause of the fire is being investigated.

RCMP on lookout for would-be thieves This past week, the Rimbey RCMP responded to 40 calls for service. Highlights of the week include a break and enter, theft, assault and other serious criminal matters. In the very early morning hours of Saturday, April 20th, at approximately 5:30 a.m, unknown culprit(s) rammed their vehicle through the front doors of a business located in Bluffton. The alarm was triggered and the would-be thieves fled the scene quickly before they had a chance to steal anything. Rimbey Mounties, including officers from the Forensic Identification Unit, are following up on leads in this case. RCMP assists with structural fire In the evening hours of April 20th, officers assisted the Fire Department with a structure fire in Bluffton. A detached garage was fully engulfed in flames when emergency personnel attended the scene. Fortunately, the fire was contained quickly by the firemen and no residences were damaged. Foul play is not suspected in this case and no one was seriously injured. Fireworks mistaken for gun shots On the weekend, several folks in town called 911 to report possible gun shots. Police located two males setting off fireworks. Both males were charged in this case. More criminals were actively targeting fuel in the Grass fire: Rimbey Fire Department responded to grass fires at Range Rimbey area this week. On April 22nd, thieves stole Road 32 and 33 on the Leedale Road, April 24. The department refuel and a fuel pump from a bridge construction site minds the public not to throw burning cigarette butts out of vehicle north of Rimbey on Highway 20. Diesel fuel was stolen windows and use extra precaution with burning barrels. APN Photo from heavy equipment located on a farm quarter along the Medicine River adjacent to Township Road 410.

In six months, Rimbey will have elected a mayor and councillors. What are you planning to do about it? Mayor Sheldon Ibbotson has stated he will seek re-election but that doesn’t mean he should be uncontested. George Brown When people who Off the Record talk about municipal politics gather to talk about what’s wrong with municipal politics, they toss out all kinds of names of people they would like to see on council, people who have threatened to run for council, and people who should be run off council. It’s not as easy as it sounds to elect five people whose vision for the next four years jibes with yours. Get the phonebook out and try it. Typically the best young minds are busy carving out their niche in the business world, commuting to work because there aren’t enough good jobs in Rimbey. They’re trying to raise a family and are already knee-deep in their volunteer commitments to coaching hockey, passing the plate Sunday mornings or bringing juice and orange wedges to their kids’ soccer games. Municipal politics has become a middle manager’s or retired person’s game; they’re the one’s who can meet the time commitment. Finding county councillors is just as tough — cows don’t milk themselves on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month and the canola doesn’t harvest itself in the fall when councillors typically attend conventions and get started on their budgets. For some, but not most, the stipend might be attractive. Mayor Ibbotson earned about $21,850 in 2012; the pay for councillors depends on how many committee meetings they attend, how many babies they kiss and how many ribbons they cut. Town councillors’ salaries and benefits ranged in 2012 from $17,000 to $19,400. In Rimbey, a new broom and voter dissatisfac-

tion swept out the old council in 2010. Joe Anglin then left to take a seat in the provincial legislature but continues to influence municipal politics by burning books and bridges. Maybe he’ll decide he’s already spending so much time deciding what’s best for the town he’ll quit as MLA and run for mayor. Maybe Dave Karroll will come out of the weeds and try to return to the council table. Being a councillor is a frustrating job and it’s easy for someone who’s used to being the boss at home or at work to feel like a cog in a bureaucratic wheel that turns ever so slowly. Councillors who get elected on a platform of change and progress often find after one term that they have just perpetuated the status quo. But if the community is to advance, it needs fresh ideas and the revitalization a new generation of leaders can provide.

Residents deserve local government that is willing to listen to their concerns and their suggestions. That’s a cornerstone of democracy. Municipal government has more direct influence on the everyday lives of citizens than either the provincial or federal government. You expect a lot from your local government but are you prepared to put in a lot of time and effort over the next four years to improve the quality of life in your community? Nomination day for the fall election is Sept. 16. That gives you about five months to get up to speed on what town council or county council has been up to. You don’t have to understand mill rates, off-site levies, municipal development plans and debentures right away to be considered a good candidate for office. Serving as a municipal councillor is often a thankless job, but really, somebody’s gotta do it.

A rather small weapon of mass destruction George W. Bush wasn’t lying about Iraq after all, and those of us who said he was owe him an apology. Saddam Hussein did have weapons of mass destruction. We just didn’t read the small print. When President Bush said in a speech: “Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof — the smoking gun — that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud,” we thought that he was talking about nuclear weapons. And many of us didn’t believe him. When Colin Powell, the secretary of state, told the UN Security Council “Saddam Hussein and his regime are concealing their efforts to produce more weapons of mass destruction....We know that Iraqi government officials...have hidden prohibited items in their homes,” we thought he meant nukes and poison gas and nasty biological agents. Poor old Colin, we thought. An innocent soldier, too gullible for his own good. But we were all wrong. The real threat was pressure cookers and there were thousands of them in the homes of Iraqi officials We shouldn’t be too hard on the Bush gang for not clarifying what they actually meant by “weapons of mass destruction” at the time. Imagine how silly Colin Powell would have looked at the United Nations if he had shown the disbelieving audience not a vial of suspicious-looking liquid (nerve gas?

Gwynne Dyer Guest Columnist

Black Death) but merely a pressure cooker. But there’s no doubt now: there were “weapons of mass destruction” in Iraq. These penitential thoughts are inspired by the charge brought against Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the surviving brother of the two young Chechen-Americans who detonated pressure cookers stuffed with explosives and ball-bearings at the Boston Marathon, killing three and wounding several hundred. It was a wicked deed that brought great sorrow to many families — but are pressure cookers really “weapons of mass destruction”? The US Department of Justice certainly thinks so. On April 22 it charged Tsarnaev with “using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction against persons and property.” Not a nuclear weapon, or poison gas, or some filthy plague but a homemade bomb that killed three people. The US federal government’s definition of a “weapon of mass destruction” it turns out, is quite different from the one we ordinary mortals use. It covers almost any explosive device, specifically including bombs, grenades, mines, and small rockets

and missiles. Of course, American bombs, grenades, mines and small rockets and missiles are not “weapons of mass destruction.” That would be unthinkable. What’s really going on here is just another manifestation of what Americans themselves call “American exceptionalism.” In this context, it means killing Americans, especially for political reasons, is a special crime that calls for special terms and special punishment. Don’t get too excited about it. One of the things that makes Americans completely unexceptional is that they are playing the same games with words and meanings that every great power has used to justify its actions since the dawn of time. Lewis Carroll nailed it a century and a half ago in Through the Looking-Glass, the sequel to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. “When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.” “The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.” “The question is,” said Humpty Dumpty, “which is to be master — that’s all.” Gwynne Dyer is an independent journalist whose articles are published in 45 countries.

RCMP provide fingerprinting kits for children at information fair By Treena Mielke Despite a poor turnout for the town’s first ever information fair held in recognition of National Victims of Crime Awareness Week, Rimbey’s Victim Services program co-ordinator believes the event was a step in the right direction.

“It increased awareness about what we do and we need to get the word out there,” said Janet Porter. During the fair, held April 21 from noon to 3 p.m. at the Rimbey Community Centre, several booths were manned by representatives from agencies that provide support to victims of crime, tragedy and natural disasters. These included representatives from Neighborhood Place, FCSS, Red Cross, Women’s Outreach, the Edmonton Sexual Assault Centre, Rimbey Ministerial Group and Students Against Drunk Drivers. Information regarding suicide prevention was also available. Rimbey RCMP were also on hand to provide fingerprinting kits for the children. Const. Luke Halvorson gave a roll-over demonstration using a special vehicle with cloth dummies set up inside to show what can happen to motorists who aren’t wearing seat belts in that situation. Despite the cold wind and chilling temperatures, children scrambled in and out of the emergency response vehicles parked in the community centre parking lot checking out all the bells and whistles and interesting paraphernalia inside. The fair also included some light-hearted fun at the expense of Mayor Sheldon Ibbotson and Coun. Paul Payson. The pair obligingly donned plastic cover-ups and became the target of several whipped cream pies tossed, mostly by the younger set in the crowd, directly into their faces. All funds raised through the pie toss went to the Rimbey Food Bank. Gene Steeves from Keyera Corp. barbecued hotdogs and hamburgers for the event.

Thanks goes to volunteers for job well done By Treena Mielke Good food, sincere thanks for a job well done and impromptu entertainment were the highlights of a special volunteer recognition evening. Around 200 people crowded into the Rimbey Community Centre to attend the 15th annual volunteer event held April 22. Master of ceremonies Mayor Shel-

don Ibbotson said Rimbey and the surrounding area has more than 100 nonprofit organizations volunteers work with. “Without them, we wouldn’t be the community we are today,” he said. “They are selfless individuals who demonstrate their genuine compassion for the well being of others and support essential causes by taking action and by making a difference.”

This couple were ready to enjoy the rice pudding which followed the main course at the Rimbey Volunteer Appreciation Night held April 21 at the Rimbey Community Centre. Treena Mielke Photo

Annand Ollivierre from Volunteer Alberta came from Edmonton to attend the event. “I am grateful to be here,” he said. “Volunteer recognition is one of the pillars of any community.” Ollivierre suggested recognizing people individually to show them they are appreciated as well as thanking them in public as ways to keep volunteerism alive and well in any community. He also noted volunteerism needs to remain fun for volunteers to continue to stay active and involved. Keith Beebe, division 5 Ponoka County councillor, noted volunteers are responsible for the longevity of the rural halls in the county. “Without these people, those halls would have to shut down.” Paul McLaughlin, the division 4 councillor, congratulated the community on its volunteer base. “The volunteerism we have right here in this room is amazing. Thank you.” Alberta volunteers contribute 139 million hours annually — the equivalent of 76,000 full time yearround jobs. Nearly 40 per cent of Albertans volunteer. In a congratulatory letter, Blaine Calkins, MP for Wetaskiwin, said volunteers rarely boast about their achievements. “They go about their day helping those that are in need; those that require assistance; they serve on community boards and committees; these unsung heroes make the lives of all Canadians better.” Following the speeches, volunteer Wendy Finlay entertained on the piano with a delightful rendition of old-time music. The volunteer committee that sponsored the appreciation night was composed of Mary Busch, Barry Nesbitt, Laine Dahms, Dan Donald, Cheryl Jones, Irene Steeves, Peggy Makofka, Pat Muddle, Diane McCallum and Anita Goetz.

Irene Steeves and Laine Dahms are members of the volunteer committee who organized the volunteer appreciation night which was held April 22 at the Rimbey Community Centre.

other side of the world. Throughout the year students met with Central Alberta Refugee Effort’s rural education coordinator Avery Acheson and broadened their per-

spectives of life in other parts of the world. Students learned about quality of life and human rights these visits. After meeting Monybany Minyang Dau, one of the “lost boys” of Sudan, the grades 3/4 class felt strongly that they wanted to do what they could to help others who were sick and dying because of poor water quality. The students organized a bake sale during portfolio walks in March to raise money to help build wells in Atar, Sudan. They approached school administration to present their idea, they wrote letters to the newspaper and made posters to advertise their sale and approached businesses in Rimbey for permission to hang their posters in a visible place. They set up and ran the bake sale themselves. Support for the project was overwhelming. Both nights of portfolio walks the bake sale sold out within an hour and a half. The generosity of parents was amazing and we are filled with gratitude for their time and effort. Funds raised from the bake sale combined with donations totalled approximately $1,025. We have great appreciation for the will-

ingness of businesses to help the class advertise. Students went above Grade 3 and 4 students at Rimbey Elementary and beyond in their efforts. Garren School opened their hearts and dedicated themSkeels, a Grade 3 student, donated selves to helping children like themselves on the half of the money he earned from selling two of his chickens at an auction. Other donations were received from grandparents and from a kind woman in Winfield who read about the project sent a donation to the class. Another student cut dimes off of one of her shirts to donate her own money. Monybany traveled to Rimbey again on April 19 and the class presented him with the funds raised to support his efforts. Monybany is returning to Sudan in May with enough money to build one well. He plans on building the first well on a school site to make it easier for children to get an education. Following his well building efforts, Monybany dreams of raising enough money to In the back row are Rimbey Elementary School grades three and four students Chelsey Kreil, build better school facilities.

The Rimbey Review, April 30, 2013 9

Canada offers many benefits often taken for granted Dear Editor: Upon returning after a month-long journey through California on my motorcycle to escape the snow, I felt so pleased to be back in the town (Rimbey) I’ve called home for over seven years now. I greeted my modest house with a large smile, thankful it wasn’t just another fleabag motel room on the road. Travel and adventure aside, it is time to fall back into the real world. Over and above thoroughly inspecting my Facebook home page, I felt I should get caught

up on local happenings through our own Rimbey Review and also by pouring through the Edmonton Journal. My stomach fell into a knot after reading an article about smelly water and one person’s actions involving driving across Edmonton to shower where supposedly the water had less of an odour. About a couple of weeks into my road trip I was in San Francisco coming up out of a public transit train station. In this particular area, there was an abundance of homeless people. I was on foot and had to walk a few blocks to arrive at another area I wanted to check out.

Not allowing pets can be heartless Dear Editor: What is wrong with these landlords, are they that heartless that they don’t allow small pets? Just because some people can’t and won’t clean up after their pets it doesn’t mean everyone is a slob and not everyone works in the oil patch and not everyone makes that kind of money to pay high rents. How heartless and greedy can you get? You are putting people and children out on the streets because of your greed. Shame on you. We live in Canada, there is no reason for anyone to have a to live on the streets unless they choose to be there. How do landlords hold their heads up knowing they are letting people and children live on the streets? Are you that heartless and greedy? Just remember one thing, it could be you next and how would you like knowing you might not

entertainers and young rising stars. And while they all bring their own special brand of music, poetry and storytelling to the stage, they all have one thing in common. They are as Albertan as the wild rose. Alberta’s Men & Women of Country Music show will be at the Hoadley Community Hall on May 11 from noon to 9 p.m. This is the 13th year the show has been in existence and the sixth year it has been held at Hoadley. This year’s lineup is to include many of the well-known names from Alberta, all of whom promise to keep the day’s entertainment at a lively pace. “Every year when the show comes together the talent that walks on that stage is amazing and wonderful,” said co-ordinator Shirley Hartman. She said lifetime awards will be handed out to ‘Papa’ Joe Kozak, who toured coast to coast with the Wilf Carter Show, and to Fran Sinclair, a self taught singer and musician. These awards are presented to enter-

tainers who have been in the music industry for 30 years or more. Other musicians who have received this award include Dick Damron, Tom Jackson, Pete Hicks, Joyce Smith, Laura Vinson and Joanne Myrol. A rising star award, given to young people 16 and under, will be presented to the Cassidy Zahar, who has recently returned from Nashville. The award is presented in memory of Diane Brandson who began the show several years ago. “This was her passion, to get Alberta talent together, to showcase experienced artists and give younger talent a stage to perform on,” said Hartman. This year’s lineup will include Fred and Shirley Dobirstein from Lacombe and Mervin and Joanne Lietz from Redwater. Hartman said Fred Dobirstein, a former Lacombe police chief, plays the part of an old type cowboy when on stage. The unusual component of the Lietz’s presentation is that with a stick and five-gallon pail,

Mervin accompanies his wife, who plays guitar and sings,. Judy Mazurek from Gull Lake, who is a farmer’s daughter and learned to sing with her dad and her uncles, is also in this year’s lineup. Becky Winchester from Rocky Mountain House will sing about the queens of country music and Bryn Thiessen, the cowboy poet, will be on hand to provide his own special brand of entertainment. A concession will be available throughout the day and reservations may be made for supper. For tickets, information and performance times contact Shirley at 403-8436004. Tickets may be purchased at Stationery, Stories and Sounds Rimbey, Big West Farm & Ranch Drayton Valley.

side and the applicant, Dougald Fawcett, says the intention for use of the land is to raise 4-H animals and pleasure horses. However, there’s already one acreage within the subdivision and an adjacent landowner to the northwest alleges a commitment was made that another wouldn’t be developed. “With a second subdivision out of that quarter, history shows a second one leads to a third one, which leads to a fourth and possibly a fifth,” said Brent Flewelling. The stipulation states the new subdivision stays as one subdivided piece but it isn’t a permanent safety net. “Keep in mind that council down the road can do an amending bylaw,” said Cutforth. Fawcett says the land will have no large scale operations and the only reason he’s subdividing is so the landowner can have the land title.

The request is to rezone the land from agricultural to hobby farming and West Central Planning Agency agrees the land has multi-lot potential. Eight approaches would be needed to service the developments, with four on one quarter section. No approaches would be allowed off Secondary Highway 771. “That many approaches just isn’t good planning,” said Cutforth.

By Treena Mielke In front of a huge, enthusiastic crowd of fans, the Bentley Generals skated, stick-handled and shot their way to a 3-0 victory against the Clarenville Caribous, bringing home, once again, the coveted Allan Cup. The game held April 20 at the Red Deer Arena, marked the second Canada’s senior amateur men’s hockey championship for the Generals, who also brought the Allan Cup home in 2009. Goalie Dan Bakala, the team’s tournament MVP, made 35 saves in Saturday’s game while opposing goalie, Jason Churchill kept out 30 shots. Bentley General Chris Neiszner scored the first goal of the game, 14 minutes into the second period and just under five minutes later, Scott Doucet scored the second goal. The third period had barely got underway when Generals’ Keenan Desmet scored, bringing the score to 3-0. Reflecting on the final game, Generals manager Jeff McInnis admitted to a few nervous moments before his team got down to the business of winning. “They (the Caribous) looked very polished in the semifinal. I was quite nervous when we went in,” he said. However, he noted being nervous wasn’t such a bad thing, because he was fairly confident when the Generals went up against the Caribous in 2011, and the game did not turn out the way he expected. “I think we were overconfident then,” he recalled. McInnis said it was rewarding to defeat the Caribous and especially rewarding for the nine veterans who were on the team in 2011. The manager sees Bakala as an amazing goalie who has been a huge asset for the Generals. “He is a special young man and we hope to have him back next year but he has had professional offers judging by his performance (in the tournament).” While Mcinnis is proud of Bakala’s performance in the net, he noted the Generals defense was excellent in the final game. “They played it (their positions) to a tee.” Fan support for the Generals has been amazing, he added. “This is the old school kind of hockey. You don’t come for all the bells and whistles, like a nice, warm arena. You come because you love the game.”

Ponoka 65 Squadron wins gold

New officer: Officer Cadet Leo Chow from Rimbey was attested in 2012/2013.

The Lord Strathcona Trust Fund Regional Drill Competition involving Sea, Army and Air Cadets was held recently and the Ponoka 65 Air Cadet Squadron’s drill team performance outshone all the other participants. Each marching unit performed the same basic drill movements. Every unit performed almost to perfection but Ponoka gave the best performance. They were also judged on grooming, uniforms and military

bearing and received a trophy and plaque for first place. Judges were members of the Canadian Forces, Royal Canadian Legion and Air Cadet League. Under the guidance of Second Lieut. Michael Kolbeck, the team consisted of cadets Rebbeca Nicholson, Matthew Osbourn, Sean Meikle, Aaron Chalifoux, and Casey Cohoe led by Commander Matthew Granson and Second in Command Clinton Rodney.

Winners of WCPS health and safety contest announced On April 15 winners of the first Wolf Creek Public Schools (WCPS) Student Generated – Staff Learning Health and Safety contest were announced. Six grade 1-6 classes and four grade 7-12 student groups were each awarded $700 for generating creative and purposeful health and safety training tools for Wolf Creek teachers and staff. The contest was created by WCPS Health and Safety Coordinator Chris Banbury as a way to promote health and safety integration in the division. The contest was open to all WCPS students and could be submitted individually, as a group, or as a class. The entries needed to be applicable to the operation within a school district with the main objective being to use the final products as health and safety training for school division safety. The division has been utilizing online training for five years to educate staff on health and safety issues. Banbury says that while the training has been effective, he wanted to find a way to increase the awareness of the importance of health and safety. As a school division, he thought the best way would be to educate from within, however with a bit of a twist. Instead of teachers educating students, the contest would see students creating training for staff. The contest also provided an avenue for students to display their knowledge regarding health and safety and to start to understand the importance of health and safety from a young age.

In November, the Farmer’s Advocate Office received several complaints from farmers who used Carbon Merchants Corporation to deal with their carbon offsets, advising farmers to seek legal counsel for contract remedy advice. Alberta Agriculture and Development alleges Carbon Merchants are not delivering on their contracts. As of April 22, Carbon Merchants was still listed on the ESRD website. “This is a serious credibility issue for this government with a company that is still registered in the market even though it has defaulted on carbon contracts,” Anglin said. “It’s clear that the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing as this government continues to fail to protect the market.” With the Auditor General twice reporting

Above average spring run-offs predicted The grains complex continues to be subject to weather forecasts as planting delays are weighing heavy on the minds

of both traders and producers alike. As the calendar moves forward and we continue to see snow in the fields, it’s more than just frustrating. While Mother Nature and Ol’ Man Winter toy with our emotions, there is positive belief that the snowmelt will occur appropriately and soil temperatures will warm up quickly. That being said though, any additional precipitation once the snow disappears would not be welcomed. Aboveaverage spring run-off conditions are anticipated by the majority of municipalities across Western Canada. Drew Lerner of World Weather Inc. expects precipitation to be more likely in the eastern part of the Prairies. That doesn’t help farmers in the Red River Valley as the U.S. National Weather Service doesn’t expect the seasonal “flooder” to crest in North Dakota until mid-May, meaning

Viewers choice award to be presented Continued from page 14 On April 15, Banbury and the WCPS Joint Health and Safety Committee selected the winning entries. Almost all grade levels were represented, with prizes being awarded by grade. Submissions varied in complexity and scope but the message of the importance of health and safety was very clear in all of them. “I think staff will be very impressed with the winning entries which range from simple yet informative PowerPoint presentations and calendars to Green Screen productions using Movie Maker technology,” said Banbury.

He added, “This was the division’s first formal attempt at integrating students from all grades into health and safety. We feel we have accomplished something in which students, staff and the community can be proud of and get value from.” The next step in the contest is the Viewer’s Choice Award. All winning submissions will be available to students, staff and the public for viewing on WolfTube (http://wolftube.mediacore.tv/).

Parents’ actions speak volumes By Treena Mielke Parents’ actions have a long-lasting effect on children who are more often than not innocent bystanders subjected to situations they have little or no control over. Guest speaker at Rimbey’s information fair, Rita Dillon, injected a serious note into the fair when she talked about the devastating effect parents’ actions can have on their children. She noted physical violence is only one type of abuse and often the most easy to recognize but it is not the most damaging. “Family violence is treating our partner without respect and it scares the kids,” said Dillon, the program director with the Drayton Valley Comprehensive Family Violence Institute. Dillon said six-year-olds, who watch their parents give each other the silent treatment for days on end assume they are the root of the problem. “At that age they believe they are the cause of everything that ever happens,” she said. Dillon explained arguing, fighting, namecalling, yelling, pushing, stomping around and prolonged and hostile silent treatment, threatening to leave and prolonged absences can cause children to fear for themselves and their parents. “For children, these actions by their caregivers can be just as destructive as physical violence.” She said children who are exposed to these actions may act out by being noisy, aggressive, hyperactive, bragging, bullying, swearing and starting fights. These children may complain of headaches, stomach aces and nausea. They may also be diagnosed with ADD and/or ADHD.
