By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

The 32nd Annual Ed Henick Senior Bowl in Saskatoon had some local flavour with Central Saskatchewan well represented.

Three competitions took place at the Saskatoon Minor Football field on Saskatoon’s south end with 6-man, 9-man, and 12-man North versus South games.

Jared Giddings, Jacob Zimroz, and Cody Weyland from Humboldt, Brayden Ernst from Watrous, and Evan Huslage from Wakaw brought their skill to the 9-Man North Team, who also included players from Melfort.

The North marched the ball down the field a couple of times for a 47-13 win over the South Team, which consisted of teams from Foam Lake, Lumsden, and

Moose Jaw. The 6-man North team, consisting of Mitch Toews, Breshton Chow-Folden, Graham Broadfoot, and Landon Schutte from Watrous and Gabriel Cook from Birch Hills, picked up a 22-8 win over the South team, consisting of players Thiessen Karakochuk and Drayden Ukrainetz from Wynyard.

MVP plaques were awarded to both North and South players for all three games.

Local players took home both plaques for the 6-man game with Karakochuk taking home the South team MVP and Chow-Folden taking home the North team MVP. Karakochuk says the South’s loss to the North was hard but the MVP award was an unexpected plus to the game.

Chow-Folden says he went hard during the tryout

weekend and would not have gotten where he is without the North coaching staff.

Fellow players on North’s 6-man also raved about the coaching staff, especially the Watrous coaches that helped them along the way.

Troy Snider of the 6-man North coaching staff sees the quality of programing when players come from rural areas to play on these combined teams.

Programs from Watrous have great players and coaching staff.

“They’re building a very effective program. Great young men coming out of their schools,” says Snider.

Humboldt’s Giddings was honoured to take home the MVP for the North but everyone played hard for that win, he says.

“The whole team played well and I couldn’t have done it without them,” he says.

Bisons continue strong start

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter The Bruno Bisons continued their Saskatoon Men’s Baseball League season on May 17 with a game against the Armadillos.

The Bisons were swinging a hot bat all night scoring 13 run in seven innings as the Bisons cruised to an easy 13-4 win.

Adam Olchowski picked five

strong innings before Jason McCrea came on in relief to pitch the final two innings.

Through two games the Bisons (2-0) hold down the fifth spot in the 19 team league as they sit one game back of the Wombats (3-0).

The Bisons continue their season with a pair of games this week as they face the Cubs on May 26 and the Tigers on May 27.

Royals drop season opener

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter The Marysburg Royals opened their 2016 season on May 18 in Saskatoon with a game against the Smokin Guns.

The season did not get off to the greatest of starts for the Royals as they were gunned down by the Smokin’ Guns 10-3.

Dean Jaeb, Mathew Strueby, Nick Anderson, and Eric Bollefer combined to pitch the whole game for the Royals, who saw all 18 of their players get into the game.

The Royals managed six hits and make no errors in the loss.

The lost puts the Royals’ record at 0-1 so far this season and leaves them one game back of the first place Diggers, Smokin’ Guns, and Stallions who all sit with perfect 1-0 records.

The Royals have a small break in their schedule before returning to the diamond on June 1 when they play the Dodgers in Saskatoon, followed by their first two games in Marysburg on June 5 when the Royals play a doubleheader against the Stallions.

Red Sox split weekend series

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter The Muenster Red Sox continued their 2016 Saskatchewan Premier Baseball League Midget AAA season with a pair of games on May 21 in Saskatoon.

Their first matchup came against the Regina Expos, with the Expos being classified as the home team.

The game started off slowly for both teams before the Red Sox broke the game open with a pair of runs in the third inning.

They would hold onto that lead until the fifth inning when some errors would cost the team four runs.

In a big sixth inning the Red Sox would answer with a pair of runs to tie the game at four.

In the eighth inning the Red Sox would scratch an additional run across the plate to take a 5-4 lead into the bottom half of the inning.

The Red Sox would get into trouble in the bottom of the eighth inning giving up two runs including

the walkoff winner as they would drop their first game of the season to the Expos 6-5.

The Red Sox pitching staff did well going 7.2 inning giving up ten hits, and one walk while striking out ten. Parker McRae, Adam Gerwing, and Thomas Lessmeister combined to give up six runs but only two were earned as they were undone by four Red Sox errors.

Brody Frerichs, Kalvin Rueve, and Bryce Rueve carried the offensive load as they accounted for all three of the Red Sox’s runs batted in.

After an approximately five hour rest the Red Sox returned to action to take on the Saskatoon Giants, with the Red Sox being designated as the home team.

The Giants jumped on the Red Sox early scoring a run to take an early 1-0 lead.

The lead was short-lived however as the Red Sox came out swinging in the bottom half of the inning hitting the ball all over the field as 11 batters came up to the plate in a seven run first inning.

With the momentum clearly on the side of the Red Sox they kept swinging a hot bat throughout the rest of the game scoring five runs in the second inning, eigth more in the third inning and five more in the fourth inning as the Red Sox rolled to a 25-1 win that was ended after five innings.

Logan Hofmann and Rylan Marianchuk combined to pitch five innings giving up one unearned run, two hits, one walk while striking out six.

The Red Sox offense was lights out throughout the game as they finished with 21 hits, five walks, 19 runs batted in while striking out only once.

The Red Sox returned to action May 28 with a doubleheader at Jubilee Memorial in Muenster.

The Muenster Bantam AA Red Sox opened up their season on May 18 with a game against the Saskatoon Braves.

The Red Sox scored early and often en route to an easy 9-2 win.

They return to action May 26 for a game against the S5 Giants.

Crop Report - May 10 to May 16, 2016 Despite a cool and wet start to the week, seeding is advancing at a remarkable rate, according to Saskatchewan Agricultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Weekly Crop Report.

Fifty-one per cent of the crop is now seeded, well ahead of the five-year (2011-2015) average of 28 per cent for this time of year.

Some producers have wrapped up seeding operations, while others will need another couple of weeks of warm and dry weather.

Seeding is most advanced in the southwest, where producers have 70 per cent of the crop in the ground.

Sixty per cent of the crop is seeded in the southeast; 56 per cent in the northwest; 53 per cent in the west-

central region; 30 per cent in the east-central region; and 29 per cent in the northeast.

Eighty-four per cent of field peas, 80 per cent of lentils, 78 per cent of chickpeas, 63 per cent of durum, 57 per cent of mustard, 51 per cent of spring wheat and 39 per cent of canola have now been seeded.

Topsoil moisture conditions have greatly improved in many regions thanks to the recent rain.

However, some areas in the province will still need rain in the coming weeks to help crops germinate and emerge. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as six per cent surplus, 77 per cent adequate, 13 per

cent short and four per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as three per cent surplus, 71 per cent adequate, 21 per cent short and five per cent very short.

The majority of the province received rain last week, ranging from trace amounts to nearly 100 mm. Frost struck some areas last week, although damage appears to be minimal as most vulnerable crops have not yet emerged.

Producers are busy seeding and controlling weeds.

Raptors provide Canadian playoff excitement

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Playoff basketball is always crazy but the Toronto Raptors are giving their strong fan base the most crazy of playoff runs.

After two years of playoff disappointment the Raptors came into this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playoffs with a head of steam having set franchise records in wins, home wins, road victories, consecutive home wins, and consecutive wins to name a few but the general feeling was prove you can do that in the playoffs.

Their first round series against the Indiana Pacers did not start out well as they lost by ten points in a game it never really felt like they were in.

As the series moved along the Raptors gave their fans moments of pure joy, punctuated by their epic comeback in game five and moments of frustration but after seven hard fought games they survived.

And survive it was as their two best players all season long were a shell of their regular season selves throughout the series.

Next up was the Miami Heat and their future Hall of Famer Dwayne Wade. In an interesting twist of fate the series played out almost identically to the one against the Pacers with one stark contrast. Demar Derozan and more specifically Kyle Lowry finally started playing more like the all stars they are and after seven games the Raptors once again won.

The win was a historic one for the Raptors orga-

Pet of the Week

nization as it marked the first time in the teams 21 year history they were going to the conference finals.

Unfortunately for them waiting there was the well rested Cleveland Cavaliers and their superstar, LeBron James, who was searching for his sixth straight trip to the National Basketball Association finals dating back to his time in Miami.

Everyone was writing the Raptors off as an easy victim for the Cavs. Most pundits gave the Raptors one win in the series at best with most expecting a sweep.

There was so little hype surrounding the Raptors that CBS Sports had a poll out asking who would win the NBA title and the choices were the Golden State Warriors, the Oklahoma City Thunder (who were playing each other in the Western Conference Final), the Cleveland Cavaliers, and other, as in the Toronto Raptors since they were the only other team playing.

Now admittedly, CBS did say they released the poll before the Raptors knocked off the Heat in game seven but you get the point.

No one gave the Raptors any hope.

Once the series started it certainly looked like the Raptors deserved to be cast aside as they were trounced in the first two games on the series in Cleveland and came home licking some pretty serious wounds.

Then in front of their rabid fan base the Raptors came alive pulling out a pair of wins, including a gusty game four win after blowing an 18 point lead when the Cavs made 14 straight shots without a miss.

So here we sit. Going back to Cleveland with the series tied at two.

What a fun journey it has been so far. Now as the saying in sports playoffs goes â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re never in

trouble until you lose at home,â&#x20AC;? which means the Cavs still do have the series in their control but it certainly feels like their grip is a lot looser now than it was five days ago.

Now I admit, I am not a huge basketball guy. I am hockey guy first and foremost but this Raptors run has been really fun to watch and I find myself turning on the Raptors games and watching those instead of the National Hockey League playoffs.

This run has even made me forget for the most part that I watched exactly zero NHL playoff games containing Canadian teams this spring because none of them made it.

It really has been fun to watch. For those who have not tuned in so far give it a try. LeBron James is one of the best players on the planet and the Raptors are Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team and it really is fun to watch.

And for those who are watching. Enjoy it because you never know when you are going to get the chance to see the Raptors back in the conference finals again.

Allergy season in full bloom

By Dr. Megan Parker, ND Health Columnist

Seasonal allergies affect approximately ten to thirty per cent of the population.

Now that spring is in full bloom, we are right in the midst of allergy season.

The most common causes of seasonal allergies are grass, pollen and molds.

Seasonal allergies are also known as allergic rhinitis or hay fever.

Common symptoms of allergies are sniffling, sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy eyes, itchy throat, and postnasal drip.

Allergy sufferers may also have swelling and puffiness beneath their

eyes, dark circles or shiners under their eyes, restlessness, fatigue, poor sleep and headaches. In children there can also be associated behavioral problems like irritability, hyperactivity, poor concentration, whining, and pickiness about food.

But what exactly is an allergy?

When someone with allergic rhinitis inhales a pollen or particle that they are allergic to, it sets off a cascade of immune system responses in their body. An IgE antibody attacks the inhaled particle and sets off the immune system. Inflammation is triggered and inflammatory chemicals like histamine are released from mast cells.

The best way to deal with allergies is avoidance. Don’t spend long hours outdoors when trees are budding and allergens are unavoidable. Shower after spending time in wind or dusty areas where you may have allergens on your clothes.

But being cooped up inside all day doesn’t seem like a very fun way to pass the time so there must be a better option.

There are some easy lifestyle changes you can make at home to help reduce the severity of your allergies.

Some of these strategies may be affective if you have hay fever type allergies, but are not effective for anaphylactic reactions. If you suffer

from anaphylactic allergies, be sure to seek medical attention or use your Epi-pen for reactions.

Water is essential for overall health, but can also have some benefits for seasonal allergies.

Water keeps our immune system functioning in full force so it can prevent unwarranted responses. The more fluids we consume, the thinner our bodily secretions will be which allows for thinner mucous within the nasal passages which prevents build up and congestion.

Increasing the consumption of healthy Omega 3 fatty acids can also help with allergies. They are anti-inflammatory in nature so they decrease the inflammatory response in your body and decrease the symptoms of allergies. Omega 3s also decrease the production of the inflammatory chemicals like histamine which trigger the allergies in the first place. Try increasing your intake of seafood, fish, and flaxseeds.

Onions, garlic, apples, black tea and grapefruit contain a common flavonoid called quercetin that is beneficial for allergies. Quercetin inhibits mast cells from releasing histamine.

The less histamine that is released the less severe your allergies will be.

Another important nutrient for our immune systems is Vitamin C. Vitamin C decreases inflammatory

responses and can help decrease allergic responses. Great food sources of Vitamin C are peppers, oranges, kiwis, strawberries, apples and many other fruits and vegetables.

Since allergies are caused by inhalation of particles that trigger the immune response, cleaning out the nasal passages can help decrease reactivity. Neti-pots or nasal lavages are great tools to help decrease allergic responses.

They utilize a saline solution to clean out dust, pollens, debris and mucous from the nasal passages and sinuses.

During prime allergy season it can be helpful to use a nasal lavage once or twice daily to keep your nose and sinuses particle free.

Depending on the severity of your immune system responses you may be able to easily manage your seasonal allergies on your own, but if they are severe and interfering with your everyday life it is best to seek medical care to help manage the responses.

Here’s to stopping to smell the roses without a histamine response.

Let us treat nerd as a compliment

By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

When it comes right down to it, words are just words.

They can hurt but sometimes they do not have to.

One word that bugs me is nerd as an insult.

Just saying that I was writing an editorial about being a proud nerd, I was told that I should be ashamed.

Well, I am not.

Hanging out at the Horizon Student Day on May 3 (Humboldt Journal, May 11, front page), Remington Rohel reassured the students that the SHAD program that he went to in St. John’s, NL was not a ‘nerd camp.’

Rohel does not see the word as an insult but he does see the negative connotation the word has.

“There is a lot of stigma in that that

S ANSWER E FROM TH PUZZLES IN LAST WEEKS EAST CENTRAL TRADER

CROSSWORD

means there is a lot of extra reading and cramming but I see it more as just as someone trying to learn and that’s not a bad thing at all.”

Hannah Moellenbeck presented with fellow students, Bing Bing Zhang and Khrystyna Ostrovsky, about going to Ottawa on the Youth Forum program.

Just listening to them in the presentation, anyone could hear what passion this developed for politics.

To her, nerd just means someone who is more academic or introverted but the term itself is used as a derogatory way of describing a person.

“It’s just another way people are picking out each others differences, which is not necessary.”

To Moellenbeck, fear of perception is a big reason nerd is used so negatively.

People who are more focused on their schooling than other things feel this is out of the norm and that there is somehow something wrong with them, says Moellenbeck.

And it is no wonder.

You see that in pop culture as well where smart characters are always the less desirable and lonely outcasts.

In Simpsons, even the bullies are more desirable to be around than the smart characters, which is also wrong on many levels, ie. Professor Frink, Martin Prince, even Lisa most episodes.

Puzzle #820

Puzzle #556

Even Homer is deemed the hero of most of the episodes, as well as other cartoon hotshots, like Peter Griffin and Stan from American Dad, all of which come from shows that are popular with teens.

If these are not celebrations of dumb characters, I do not know what is.

In popular culture, there is always that stereotypical smart character/ socially awkward/weird interests characters.

Name me a single character whose dominate character trait is smart/ nerdy where they are also socially interesting and a strong character.

Nerds are not someone you want to be friends with in the pop culture realm.

So of course you are going to have kids not wanting to be associated with nerds in reality because they are given a distinct vision of who a nerd should be.

Seeing this positive light shone on academic leadership and seeing the presentations done by students was a good experience in a school division that puts a lot of emphasis on sports, says Rohel.

“It’s good to bring in some other

things too for students who may not be interested in (sports).”

Celebrating those successes is a big part of losing that nerd stigma.

I asked Horizon School Division Director, Kevin Garinger, his thoughts on nerd as well.

He also sees the negative way it is used but embracing intelligence is something we have to learn.

“Bill Gates would call himself a nerd and at the same time he’s trying to make it clear that it’s a word that should not be associated in a way that is demeaning to someone.”

We need to recognize everyone’s gifts, says Garinger, whether it is gifts of intelligence or other things and nerd does not work to do that.

Let us celebrate the fact that being smart does not automatically make you socially awkward.

Let us celebrate the smart people and help kids be more comfortable being nerds.

Seeing smart adults may help so I’m going to come right out and say it myself.

I am a nerd.

I am married to a nerd.

I am proud to be a nerd.

Do not be ashamed to be nerds.

Olympic men’s golf will have weak field

By Bruce Penton Sports Columnist

Professional golfers who have gone public with their lack of interest in competing at the Summer Olympics in Rio this August are being criticized in some quarters, but other than the uniqueness of possibly winning a gold medal, their ambivalence is understandable: The men’s Olympic golf competition will be a fairly ‘blah’ tournament.

The golfer who finishes first in the 60-man, 72-hole individual stroke-play tournament will win a gold medal, but deep down, he’ll know the field he conquered to win that first Olympic gold since 1904 was one of the weakest he’ll face in his career.

While there will be a number of competitors the likes of Spieth, Day, McIlroy, Stenson and DeLaet in the competition, others in the five-dozen-golfer field will include a plethora of ‘who’s he?’ — Ryan Fox of New Zealand, Rodolfo Cazaubon of Mexico, Angelo Que of The Philippines, Mardan Mamat of Singapore and Roope Kakko of Finland.

In the end, there will be hundreds of golfers on the outside looking in with far more sterling credentials than the last 15 or 20 competitors, guys who qualified due to geography — they happen to live in a country where golf is not a major sport.

But perhaps that’s what this is all about. Extend the reach of golf to countries where it’s not too well known and take advantage of the Olympic attention to grow the game in those far-flung corners of the globe. Said Anirban Lahiri of India, a top-50 world-ranked golfer: “Ninety-nine per cent of the people in India don’t know what a green jacket means, but 99 per cent of them would know what a gold medal means.”

So while Adam Scott, Louis Oosthuizen and other ma-

jor-championship winners say ‘meh’ to the Games and turned down the chance to represent their country in August, Kakko and Mamat and others like them will be teeing it up and spreading the good word about the game of golf. They probably won’t win gold, or even silver, but they’ll be doing the work of Olympians before and after them: Spreading the word to the masses about the value of friendly sports competition.

Doubters beware, no evidence of GMO danger, so far

Calvin Daniels It shouldn’t come as a great surprise that people base their positions on purely emotional responses, ones usually devoid of scientific evidence, solid reasoning, or at times even rational thought.

Our history is spotted with such ‘beliefs’; the world is flat, women should not be allowed to vote, it’s fine to own slaves, all Muslim’s are bad based on the acts of ISIS, transgender people are all a threat to children and for the purposes of this column, pasteurization is not safe and more recently genetically modified crops are not safe.

In times at least some of the above have come

to be recognized as positions at best based on ignorance, although it should be pointed out there are still those who believe all of the above, including that the earth is flat.

None of the above changed overnight, nor will any of those which still hold sway among many in the world today.

But in time it is to be hoped the concern over genetically modified (GM) crops quiets for most.

The first step to that understanding is to recognize many crops which w e g ro w h a v e b e e n significantly modified through human intervention. Not by recent science but by farmers and plant breeders working decades, if not centuries, ago.

There was an interesting story on the website of ‘The Telegraph’ a wellknown British news publication recently.

“Where does modern corn on the cob come from?” began the article at www.telegraph.co.uk

“Well-informed diners will know the answer: Latin America. But what they probably don’t know is that it never grew there naturally. Humans created it.

“Six to 10 thousand years ago, some innovative Mesoamerican farmers noticed that whereas most varieties of teosinte grass produced lots of branches with a few edible kernels on each, others produced fewer branches. So they started breeding grass that produced good kernels with grass that didn’t produce as many branches. The result: the enormous, delicious, modern corn.

“Almost no one regards corn with suspicion. But the same can’t be said for humans’ ingenious ability to engineer the plants we eat. Genetically modified (GM) crops are viewed with such hostility that they are barely grown in Europe. However, a new study by an independent group of scientists, who have done the most comprehensive review

of the evidence so far, shows that our aversion to GM food is pointless, unscientific and harmful to farmers.”

The recent report has at least caught some press beyond that dedicated to the agriculture sector, and that is important.

Most farmers are aware that GM crops are safe.

It is consumers who have fears, based mostly on rhetoric, or the growing fear of science which they no longer fully grasp, which is not so much different from the initial reaction to pasteurization.

It should be added many farmers feared the first steel plows fearing they would spoil the soil, and holding on to using wooden plows for a time.

In the case of GM crops the new report on their being safe is an extensive one, a 400-page paper by the National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine which took two years to compile and involved 20 academics examining 900 pieces of

evidence, and 700 submissions from the public.

When I posted something about the report on Facebook there was immediate suggestions by some that scientists are beholding to ‘big pharma’ so they were not about to come down against GM crops.

In the case of this study it was funded by a combination of US government and independent charitable cash, which should belie the concerns of the scientists being in anyone’s corporate pockets.

The study showed what farmers have long known, after years and years, extending into decades, of use there is no evidence of an adverse impact on human health, nor are there signs of environmental devastation.

Many among the public point to such concerns, and still hold out that any day now GM will evolve into something which devastates our health.

And yes we need caution, asbestos and lead paint and DDT, prove that. Of course we still

sell cigarettes and have government collect healthy taxes off those sales which they have to use to pay for health care for all those people with cancers and other conditions caused by smoking, so the fights the public pick are a bit questionable too.

The Telegraph piece also noted “this is now the fourth major US-government-funded study since 1989 to find no evidence of particular harm caused by such farming.

And that doesn’t include the dozens of private and non-US studies.”

This should be the closing chapter on the GM safety debate.

Yes we need to remain diligent in terms of approving new GM crops, but we should also be to the point we trust the good science that creates them, and follow-ups to ensure they are safe.

There will be the ‘flat worlders’ who will never trust, but the majority should finally feel secure if they are paying attention to the evidence.

Work continues at BHP Billitonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jansen Project

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter It takes a lot of work to get a mine ready for production.

Over the last number of years BHP Billiton has been hard at work getting the Jansen Project in working order for their official production launch in the decade past 2020. Head of Corporate Affairs for BHP Billiton, Chris Ryder, says they do not like to put a guestimate out on when the first production dates will be. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really do like to do what we say weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to do and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have firm dates on that.â&#x20AC;?

Ryder says that progress on the Jansen Project has been going well and they are well underway with the shaft excavation process and are working to finalize the engineering and design study.

He says once they have completed that study they will be taking it to the BHP Billiton board for approval.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;All of that workâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going well. The study team has done a really good job of really trying to optimize the project economics,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Ryder says some of the work that has been done on the shaft has resulted in a slightly wider shaft diameter, meaning potentially better capacity, meaning some better project economics at the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working on that right now,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll serve us well when we go to the board for approval,â&#x20AC;? he said.

He says the increased capacity might mean some extra jobs but he notes it will not significantly increase the number of jobs at the site, it will just increase the capacity.

Ryder says they expect to initially have over 500 workers when they first start production and will move to upwards of 1000 workers when they get the mine in full production.

Ryder says capital availability will dictate when they take their studies to the board when they know that the capital is going to be available. He says the availability is dictated by commodity prices, and foreign exchange rates among other things.

Ryder notes there is a lot of work that goes into opening a mine, which starts with the exploration phase. He says they begin by using a two-dimensional seismic survey to get a good indication of what might be under the surface and then they move to a three-dimensional seismic survey to get a virtual three-dimensional picture of the potash deposit in the ground.

He says that the picture provides an understanding of the quality of the deposit and lets them know whether the area is a good place to open a mine.

Once they have decided to go ahead with opening a mine at the location they begin by planning what the overall mine will look like. They then need to plan for

things like drainage, which is important says Ryder, who recalled the floods in 2010. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The site was like a rectangular island in a lake at one point.â&#x20AC;?

In addition to planning for drainage they also have to build a work camp for the workers so they have somewhere to live and they need to bring the necessary infrastructure to the site including power, water, and gas, says Ryder.

Once those details have been completed, Ryder says they next have to look at sinking the shaft. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first thing you want to do is get your shafts on the way so that you get down to the potash.â&#x20AC;?

The shafts are a little over a kilometer deep and there are two of them. Ryder says the shaft diameter will be able 7.3 meters and will be the biggest potash shafts ever sunk in Saskatchewan.

Work continues at BHP Billitonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jansen Project Continued from previous page He says to sink the shaft they first needed to sink about 40 holes in a circle, which they then put pipes down so that they can pump frozen brine down through the holes to a depth of about 700 meters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You effectively freeze a cylinder about more than 20 meters across that the shafts will be sunk through.â&#x20AC;?

He says the reason that they need to put the freezing in is to help control the water when they dig down and go through various levels including the Blairmore aquifer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once the freezingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done then you basically sink the shaft.â&#x20AC;?

BHP uses special equipment to excavate both shafts and install the preliminary liner. Ryder explains that this special equipment helps them avoid having to drill and blast and keeps people away from the cutting face. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a much safer environment for your people than with more traditional methods.â&#x20AC;?

Once the sinking equipment is removed they install an initial liner, followed by a more permanent liner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At that point youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready to start fitting your shafts out to be able to ship man and equipment underground to start mining the potash,â&#x20AC;? says Ryder.

They then needed to design and build the surface facility including facilities for shipping the potash off the site by rail, says Ryder.

Ryder says the miners mine the ore, which contains a lot of salt, some other impurities and the potash itself.

Once the ore has been mined it is processed through a number of processing activities where they remove the salt, which leaves them with the potash, which gets used for agricultural applications like fertilizer.

He says the potash is an important part of fertilizing crop because the potash is what provides the plant with strength and nutritional value. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can use nitrogen and your plants will get really big but if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use potash youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to get as much nutritional value out of the plants and so your actual yields are lower without potash.â&#x20AC;?

Going where few people have gone before: Touring the Lanigan potash mine

By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor For potash workers going down a mile below ground is dry and dusty work.

But anyone can see that it can be very rewarding for the 420 people who work at Potash Corp.

Lanigan.

The company has a low employee turnover rate which means that more employees are staying with the company longer, says General Manager, Rob Jackson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are proud to work for Potash Corp. and Potash Corp.

Lanigan. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of the reason they stay.â&#x20AC;?

Human Resources Superintendent, Adele Failler has had a multi-decade career and is an excellent example of someone who has stayed.

People recognize the mine as a good place to work, she says.

Going a mile underground can be a little daunting and a new

experience for a lot of people.

Only 120 employees are down in the mine during a 12 hour shift, some travelling up to an hour to get to a specific mining site.

Since I am one of the few people who has been below ground, I jumped at the opportunity to be taken down into the mine by training manager, Lee Neikamp, and Failler.

Starting a tour of the mine, Failler says they have to plan out their elevator trips since each trip takes three minutes to travel the mile down.

Visiting the mine was like visiting an underground city with machine shops, roads, vehicles, communication lines, electrical systems, refuge stations, and much more.

Everything that is down in the mine had to be brought down, some in pieces since some mining equipment is far too big to be brought down by the available

shafts.

Below and above ground are also control centres of the mine.

Operators in there can see everything that is going on in a centralized location and can see what equipment is running, how full storage units are, what hoists are bringing loads of potash to the surface, and where everyone should be.

Safety comes first at Potash Corp. Lanigan, says Jackson and there are a lot of systems in place to make sure people are safe below ground.

Alarm systems, including auditory, scented, and visual cues are all put in place to let people know when it is time to go into a refuge area.

During an emergency, the borers will automatically shut down as another warning sign to workers that there is something wrong.

In case of an emergency, workers go to refuge stations which

has food rations, water, first aid equipment, clean air, and any other necessity that might be needed.

The mine rescue teams are also highly trained to respond to situations underground and are made up of volunteer mine employees who take on the extra training. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The most important thing anybody does in a day is to go home safe and we truly believe that,â&#x20AC;? says Jackson.

Every person is dedicated to safety, says Jackson and the plant has seen a significant decrease in injuries over the past few years.

However, it is still important to keep on getting better, says Jackson.

When safety is put first, then they can think about producing a high quality project, says Jackson.

Mill Training Coordinator, Len Preis, is in charge of the mill area and showed how the potash is taken from down below and

worked down through brine and grinding into the specified grade.

On-sight labs do regular checks every 3 hours along the processing system to make sure the quality standard is being upheld along the way.

If there is a point in the process where below quality product is being produced, we can catch it at the source and fix it, says Preis â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any feedback we get from the lab is always an aspect we look at to make sure weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re staying on top of (production).â&#x20AC;?

Environmental stewardship is also something that the Lanigan mine is working to develop.

Whatever can be reprocessed or reused in the production of the potash goes back into the system to be reused, says Preis.

Only when there is no other use for it does it go into the tailing pond for the brine for the solid waste , says Preis.

Touring the Lanigan potash mine Continued from previous page Developments for improving the tails management will take production 50 years into the future, says Preis.

“A lot of development getting laid out today for future generations,” says Preis.

The Lanigan potash mine produces three products that are shipped world wide, including granular potash, course, and the suspension, a finer product that is on demand in places like Indonesia where distribution of product is still done by hand, says Preis.

With the product being loaded onto rail cars and being shipped out, a back log or breakdown in any one station can mean a halt in production in all the stations.

People really band together to get the job done, says Preis.

It is no surprise that people band together outside of the mine as well with Potash Corp. and Potash Corp Lanigan supporting many local initiatives and always encouraging their employees to lend a hand where they can.

Jackson says that providing work to people on a local level is very important but so is supporting that community in other ways.

“There is a lot of off-shoot businesses in the area so it’s nice to help support all of that and make a strong community.”

From sports teams to festivals, Failler says they try to help out where they can and she is very proud of that too.

Obituaries TARNOWSKI: Peter Nov. 23, 1915 - May 11, 2016 The death of Mr. Peter Tarnowski of Cudworth Nursing Home, Cudworth, SK, (and formerly of Bruno, SK), occurred at his residence on Wednesday, May 11, 2016. He was 100 years of age. Peter was born on Tuesday, November 23, 1915, to Michael and Lena (nee Twardy) Tarnowski on his grandfatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homestead in the Bruno District. He attended Pleasant Grove School until Grade 8. Peter then farmed at Bruno and worked on the railway. In the spring of 1942, he joined the army and served in Europe from June 1944 until December 1945. After being discharged, Peter came back to Bruno to farm and also worked in lumber camps for the next two years. On July 17, 1954, he married Mary Siermachesky at Holy Trinity Hall, east of Bruno. They were blessed with four sons and one daughter. Peter and Mary moved to Bruno in 1981, and Peter continued to farm until retiring in 2003.

Peter was a jack of all trades, and loved to garden and do yard work. He also enjoyed woodworking, reading, doing puzzles, playing cards, fishing, visiting, and watching various sports either locally or on television. Among his many creations were stools, several garden tools, and ropes made with twine. As well, Peter was very involved in his community and volunteered at three churches. Of great importance to him was attending his childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and then grandchildrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sporting events. Not one to be idle, even in his 90s, he took a truck completely apart, right down to the dash board. In February 2013, due to health concerns, Peter moved to the Cudworth Nursing Home where he resided until his passing. Peter will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 61 years, Mary (nee Siermachesky) Tarnowski of St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Villa, Humboldt, SK; their five children, ten grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren: Marcian(Tracey) Tarnowski and family, David(Kristi Hofer) Tarnowski, and Stephen(Leslie) Tarnowski and their daughter Jillian; Marilyn(Barry) Dagenais and family, Tasha(Jody) Nett and their children, Aiden, Logan, and Kaylee, Shaun Dagenais, Tyler(Shena) Dagenais and their daughter Addison, and Shanna Dagenais(Hailey McRae); Morris(Iris) Tarnowski and their family, Carter Tarnowski and Derek Tarnowski; Alvin(Kelly) Tarnowski and their family, Eric Tarnowski(Jasmine Saxon), and Kynan Tarnowski(Hannah Strautman); and Dennis Tarnowski; two sisters: Veronica(Morris) Chysyk, and Pauline Brezden; three sisters-in-law: Elsie Tarnowski, Evelyn Tarnowski, and Helen Tarnowski; and by numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Michael and Lena(nee Twardy) Tarnowski; three sisters and five brothers: Mary(John) Thoms, John, Roman, Caroline, Mike, Tony, and Frank Tarnowski, and Josephine(Ted) Ogibowski. The Prayer Service for Peter was held at St. Bruno R. C. Church, Bruno, on Sunday, May 15, 2016 at 7:30 p.m., led by Fr. Joseph Ackerman, OSB. The scripture readers were Eric and Kynan Tarnowski, and the eulogy was delivered by Tasha Nett and Tyler Dagenais. Music ministry was provided by organist Annie Moritz.

The Funeral Mass was offered at St. Bruno R.C. Church, on Monday, May 16, 2016, at 10:30 a.m. celebrated by Fr. Joseph Ackerman, OSB. Others taking part were: Carter and Derek Tarnowski, cross bearers and intentions; Eric and Kynan Tarnowski, scripture readers; Tasha Nett and Shanna Dagenais, giftbearers; Barry Dagenais, communion minister; Lydia Thoms and Cathy Nett, memorial table attendants. Music ministry was provided by Annie Moritz and members of the St. Bruno Parish Choir. An honor guard was formed by members of the Knights of Columbus. Honorary pallbearers were â&#x20AC;&#x153;all those who shared in Peterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.â&#x20AC;? Active pallbearers were Shaun Dagenais, Tyler Dagenais, David Tarnowski, Stephen Tarnowski, Eric Tarnowski, and Kynan Tarnowski. Interment followed at St. Bruno R.C. Cemetery. Memorial donations may be directed to either the Cudworth Nursing Home or the St. Bruno Parish. Schuler-Lefebvre Funeral Chapel, Humboldt, SK. Personal Messages
