Published Bi-Weekly Next Issue: April 7th Deadline: March 31st
A couple of weeks ago, we attended the Farm Show in Moncton. I am not sure what interest the missus found in attending, but I am suspicious that it was part of a Pavlov’s dog experiment. “What piece of equipment will cause Mikie to drool the most???” Despite the fact that I am still seeking out a bigger tractor, I have to say virtually every tractor manufacturer had a tractor on display that was soooo darn BIG... that I could only look and wonder... “What in heck would I ever do with that.” I did, however, ... drool … find the small scale logging stuff and portable band sawmills of great interest ... drool. If I can convince the missus to increase my allowance, I may have some announcements somewhere down the road. In other news!! Like the missus, I am sure that many, many of you readers are just hoping and praying for spring. But… are any of you doing anything
about it?? Just as I thought!! A couple of snowstorms ago, I think it was number 47 of the new year, I was looking and realized that I had allowed the house to become surrounded on two sides by deep snow drifts. I also know that with the warming sun if I can get down to some bare ground the sun will start to melt the remaining snow much more rapidly. So, I pledged to open up space all around the house and begin to banish winter one square foot at a time. And so I did!! It was a little scary though. I am blowing a hole through drifts up to 4 foot high and part way through realize that even with about 3 tons of tractor and equipment, I can’t turn!! I am stuck in the channel and turning the steering wheel doesn’t really do much. Driving out and taking another slice of snow gave me enough room to maneuver. So, my plan is... each and every week... clear just another 100 square feet or so!! Hey!! Drop in about midAugust and admire what spring looks like. 0001

LISTEN IN THIS IS WHERE WE PLAY How many of you have heard of the InterAction School of Performing Arts located at the Sanctuary Theatre (228 Germain St) in uptown Saint John? The staff and students just released their first CD entitled, “This is Where We Play” where they collaborated, writing and performing all the material on this 8 song release. The CD was recorded at the local Porch Light Studios by one half of Tomato/Tomato’s John McLaggan. I called Chuck Teed who is the director of the music program about the CD and some of their future plans. “The money that’s raised now from many of the CD sales is going back into the building campaign. It’s kind of ongoing.” Chuck says in regard where the sales of the CD are going.” The first and most pressing concern is the roof (Sanctuary Theatre), but after that it we need to fulfill the upgrades so that we can have a good community space that people can use for whatever event they see fit. We hosted a lot of different events through a lot of different organizations and we would like to continue that.” Chuck elaborates on that experience and process by telling me. ”The CD itself was created out of our music program. We offer music classes at the school. We offer group classes and private classes. And through working with the different students, myself and some of the instructors noticed the kids we’re writing their own material.” And in how they came to work with the popular local musical duo Tomato/ Tomato he says.” It was right around the
same time I was reconnecting with John and Lisa McLaggen of Tomato/Tomato. I have been friends with John since our high school days. We used to play in bands together. We were just talking about collaborating on some projects.” The students involved in the CD range from 8 to 18 years in age. “It was really exciting to watch the kids be fearless with their ideas.” Chuck enthusiastically adds. “Even if these kids do nothing related to the (music) industry they will learn important skills, Like collaboration, listening to one another, just those team building skills that you can bring to any part of your life.” The CD is available for purchase at the Feel Good Store and Backstreet Records who are both located on Germain Street uptown. The students will also be performing on “Record Store Day” at Backstreet. They have another performance confirmed as well for April 2 as part of their “Night Of the Arts” at the Sanctuary Theatre.

The 25 year History Publication of the Nauwigewauk Darling Seniors Club is well underway with many interviews already completed, with pictures of each member with their profile. Along with each member’s personal story, there will also be included the business of the club for each year in operation. Each member’s profile is extremely interesting which gives insight into travels to various countries of the world; unique job experiences; and in many cases there will be historical reference on the diversity of education and the desire to advance in knowledge. However, the
overwhelming aspect always evident in all interviews is just how important the feeling of home is to each member. If only everyone in the world could feel this way. The Nauwigewauk Darling Seniors are the first senior group in the Province to create such a publication. We expect this publication to be available for sale to the public in November 2015. The selling price will be announced prior to the sale. If you want your name included on our list of buyers, please call 832-5304 to reserve your copy. We look forward to hearing from you. 0036

ASK THE CHEF CABBAGE ROLLS Colin Sifton here again from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your question. Today I was busy making cabbage rolls for Saint Patrick’s Day. Someone asked me where do they come from and why are they associated with Ireland? I didn’t know so I had to go find out. Cabbage rolls are a mixture of beef, lamb or pork with herbs and spices and often rice or barley, wrapped in a leaf of cabbage. This was found all over eastern and western Europe and parts of Asia, but more in the northern parts of these continents. In many cultures all over the world you can find meats and grain wrapped in leaves. Cabbage in a very hardy leaf vegetable that grows more easily in colder climate. This is why it was more popular in the north then the south. In South America you often find dishes prepared wrapped in Banana leaves or corn husks. In south east Asia and
China they use many different leaves to wrap food for cooking and eating. In the northern areas of the world, like the one we live in, our ancestors needed to depend on the harvest to get them through the winter. Only the vegetables that they could grow in our short growing season were available. No grocery store, open seven days a week. People needed to get creative with what they grew. Cabbage, like a lot of the vegetables, were pickled to preserve them through the long winter. It was also one of the last items in the pantry as the weather got warmer. The cook of the house would need to come up with different ways to prepare the cabbage and this was a popular one. Since the majority of immigrants that came to Canada were Irish, cabbage rolls were one of the recipes that they brought with them. Since we have a similar climate as they did and a similar growing season, they would grow the same kinds of vegetables as they did before they left. Bringing seeds from
home in search of land to farm was the goal of most of our first generation. Now St. Patrick’s day is not celebrated the same in Ireland as it is here. Here it seems to be a reason to drink early in the day and in the middle of the week. In Ireland, it is a religious holiday, celebrating the Patron Saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick. It was made an official Christian feast day in the 17th century to celebrate the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. So whether you are in it for the drinks or the food or a reason to celebrate your heritage, St. Patrick’s day is one of those days we eat things we don’t usually look for like cabbage rolls, which were as much green as possible and have a drink or two to celebrate our heritage. 0040

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS International Women’s Day, celebrated globally on March 8, highlighted the “Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action”. This envisions “a world where each woman and girl can exercise her choices, such as participating in politics, getting an education, having an income, and living in societies free from violence and discrimination.” Gender equality is one of the pillars upon which our Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership is built. We provide an equal opportunity for education by paying school fees for an equal number of females and males. We also know that an education increases selfesteem in women, allowing them to say “no” to unwanted sex and the risk of contracting HIV, the most serious threat in Swaziland. An extension of this theme of “protection” is our payment for a house for young women, allowing them to avoid potentially dangerous living situations. The key projects associated with the grandmother partnership – the maize mill and community garden - are also based on the principles of empowering the disadvantaged and building self-
J O I N U S
esteem among women. The operations are supervised by women and give the local Swazi grandmothers dignity and greater independence. Another of our projects to preserve dignity among women was the completion of a modern washroom facility at a school where girls previously had only a pit toilet. The website, unwomen.org, says that “International Women’s Day is a time to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by
ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history of their countries and communities.” I want to take this opportunity to recognize the contribution of the women currently on the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership committee toward the accomplishments listed above. Lisa Bettle, Jill Darrah, Sue Hooper, Janalee MacKenzie, Laura Myers, Maureen Robichaud, and Liz Szalma play an extraordinary role in our community by supporting their fellow women in our twin community of Piggs Peak. They all play an important role in the constant strategizing, administration, and fundraising that are necessary to manage the Partnership. Most recently, they have been tirelessly working to organize the Women’s Dinner - Women Helping Women through Food and Song – for March 28. There may still be tickets remaining for the dinner at the time of this printing, check at Hampton Pharmasave or call Jill 832-0815.

TAX TIME It is tax time and if you are a homeowner, you will most likely notice an increase in the amount you must pay. Your LSD Advisory Committee noticed a change in the way taxation is applied to residents in the LSDs. We thought we should provide you with what we learned. Since the creation of the Regional Service Commissions, starting in 2013, the LSD tax rate is going up while there is a decrease on the “owner occupied provincial Services” rate. To illustrate, in 2015 the overall tax rate is approximately 0.87 cents per $100 of your real property assessment value (remember this part). The rate in 2009 was 0.88 per $100 so the tax rate varied very little over the recent years. What has changed is the LSD tax rate compared to the rate of the owner-occupied provincial services. In 2009 the LSD tax rate was 0.23 cents while the other was 0.65 cents. In 2013 the LSD rate was 0.29 LSD and 0.57 provincial. In 2015 it is 0.41 and 0.46. With this however, the overall rate remains about the same. What happened is that the Province redistributed the true cost of policing to
With Two Locations to Serve You
the local LSD rate from the Provincial rate, to be applied over a four year period starting in 2013. The policing service cost is simply going from one envelop to another within the same budget, if you will. Strictly from a tax rate prospective, the maximum impact for a homeowner is an increase in property tax of two cents per $100 of assessment related to policing, or 2% spread over 4 years. Why is your tax bill higher you ask? The real property assessment value has gone up over 30% since 2009! In other news, we received complaints of a dangerous traffic hazard caused by a high snow bank at the Kingston 4 corners. With the school and store plus a high volume of traffic, action was needed. Your LSD Committee contacted Pierre Fournier (Superintendent DOT Maintenance) to see the problem rectified. We thank Pierre for his attention to this matter. The Peninsula Fire Department saw 43 calls for service in 2014. While there was a reduction in structure fires, there was a significant increase of public hazard calls. These are primary due to downed

Thank You Perhaps you sent us a lovely card, Or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent some flowers, If so we saw them there.

Whatever you did to console our hearts, We thank you so much whatever the part.

FRESH WITH Food WHAT IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT GINGER? Life changing health problems are often the trigger for a person’s shift to change their lifestyle. All whole foods have nutritional merit, but some foods are healthier in some ways than others. Foods that fall into the spice category are known to have some of the highest levels of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, relative to their weight. A pinch of cloves can add more antioxidants to a dish than a pear. However, there is one factor that can nullify the nutritional significance of any food. Is it bioavailable? Bioavailability refers to our body’s ability to absorb the active ingredients of a food. It is possible to consume some foods with high nutrient levels, yet absorb very little. For example, salad dressings, as long as they are homemade. Adding some healthy fats by dressing your salad, or adding a handful of raw nuts or an avocado makes the nutrients in your salad greens and vegetables more bioavailable.
In many cases, combinations of certain foods work better together, than on their own. Anti-inflammatory qualities in foods are among the most sought after in my experience. Many spices have strong antiinflammatory capabilities, but which ones are most easily absorbed by your body? A group of researchers in the US conducted a brilliant study that tested the bioavailability of many of our favourite spices. They enlisted the help of about a dozen groups to each consume realistic levels of specific spices and herbs for seven days. Their blood was then dripped onto human white blood cells that had been exposed to oxidized cholesterol, which is particularly inflammatory and appears in your bloodstream after eating foods like fried chicken. Dr. Michael Greger points out that, “they weren’t dripping the spices themselves on these human white blood cells, but the blood of those who ate the spices. So the results represent what might happen when cells in our body

are exposed to the levels of spices that circulate in our bloodstream after normal daily consumption - not megadoses in some pill.” This study represents what can happen through regular healthy eating versus what happens in the lab or with the aid of expensive pharmaceuticals. In this study, turmeric’s closely related cousin, ginger was found to reduce “all three inflammatory biomarkers. Apart from its ability to seriously flavour a stir fry or a soup, ginger makes fantastic tea, goes great with your veggies and famously offers relief for nausea. However, in my opinion, the greatest thing about ginger is that you can grow it yourself in your house or in your garden. Please stay tuned for my next column about growing ginger in your home.

PoINT oF VIEW ICE CAVE CONFLICTS Midland is a beautiful place, a rural community surrounded by sprawling dairy farms, rolling hills and valleys, a winery, golf courses and two great restaurants. It's also home of what's quickly becoming one of winter's most popular hiking destinations – the Midland Ice Caves. This little piece of paradise also happens to be where I call home. I've lived here for about eight years now, and can't imagine being anywhere else. We have wonderful neighbours, and enjoy a real sense of community. Here, we also respect each others property and privacy. So, when news started circulating about conflicts between hikers and snowmobile riders on the groomed trail leading to the ice caves, I was a little surprised. After all, it's common knowledge (or so I thought) that the Millstream Valley Snowmobile Club maintains approximately 350 kilometres of snowmobile trails in the area. Members purchase trail passes and hold fundraisers yearly in order to cover the high costs of
maintaining this trail system. The ice caves and the trails leading to them are on private property. Without the generosity of local landowners, neither hikers or snowmobiling enthusiasts would have access to this natural wonder. Despite all that, the actions of a few are quickly tainting the experience for everyone. Jabbing passing snowmobile riders with ski poles and forming a human chain across the trail so riders can't pass by is nothing short of childish. And, it doesn't stop there. Food wrappers, dirty diapers, drink containers, etc., are being left behind to pollute an area we take pride in. And, access to a local business that happens to be located next to one of the entry points is being compromised every weekend. Most people are thoughtful enough to park safely along the side of the main road. However, there are others who think nothing of filling the parking lot of a business reserved for customers to the point that patrons can't safely access their services. This community goes above and beyond to welcome everyone. Members of our

I have this fear of forgetting my loved one now that he/she is gone. Laughing and socializing with friends seems somehow disloyal. So many people fail to get on with life because of the feelings you describe. Be assured that you will never forget someone who was so much a part of your life. After a while, the good memories grow dearer and the not so good ones will fade. No one can take from you the time you shared with this person. Often it makes us feel guilty to be alive when new opportunities come our way and we begin to accept new joy and happiness. It’s called ‘survivor’s guilt’. But remember that this is a normal reaction, and it soon will pass.
volunteer fire department have even trained in scenarios of rescue from the caves, should an accident ever take place. All we ask in return is for people to respect one another and not abuse the privilege. Two hiking websites, Trail Peak and Hiking NB, have updated their pages to remind visitors that access to the ice caves is a privilege, not a right, and urges visitors to be safe and courteous. “Due to the increased popularity of the Midland Ice Caves this year, there have been some issues between hikers and snowmobilers,” Hiking NB states. “Remember that the Midland Ice Caves are on private land and that it is a privilege, not a right to be allowed to visit them. Please tread lightly when visiting and make sure you don't leave anything behind. It would be tragic if they were no longer available to enjoy.” 0032

RCL BRANCH 62 AWARDS DINNER Peninsula Br. 62 held their 2nd Annual Honours & Awards Dinner on Saturday, February 7 with guest speaker the Hon. Senator Joe Day. Following an afternoon of socializing and musical entertainment a roast beef dinner, prepared by the Ladies Auxiliary, was served up by the local 140 Peninsula Army Cadets. Honours and Awards Committee Chairmen, RCMP Staff Sgt Steve Gourdeau and Past Branch Bill Wood, presented a number of members with years of service pins along with Certificates of Appreciation and Certificates of Merit to members who provided extra support to the Branch during the past year. Certificates of Merit were presented to residents of the local community for meritorious services they have provided to the Legion over the past year. Certificates of Merit were presented to Poppy Chairmen Cheryl Donnelly and Bill Wood for all their efforts in running very successful poppy campaigns over the past few years. This year's campaign brought in just over $11,000, the best results to date. Steve Gourdeau was assisted by Senator Joe Day with the presentation of a Royal Canadian Legion Friendship Award, at the National Level, to group Friends of the Peninsula for their extraordinary support to the Legion and Community. Certificates of Merit were also presented to Brunch Committee workers for their consistent dedication for this very successful fundraising. The new Legion "Service Medal" was presented, for the first time at Peninsula Br. 62, by president Terry Campbell to five members: Bob Beyea, Mae White, Bill White, Kelly Newstead and Joe Stack for their commitment to the Legion activities above and beyond what is expected of a member or their elected/ appointed position. The Annual Legionnaire of the year award was previously presented to Royden Brien for all his tireless efforts provided to the branch over the past year. Surrounded by his comrades at the January 2015 General Meeting, Royden was presented with a Legion Jacket personalized with his name and branch details. The final presentations of the day were by Bill Wood to Branch Padre Dr.

BWC - ICE BREAK-UP CONTEST Ice Break-up contest like Irish Sweepstakes for Belleisle Bay Community - Belleisle Watershed Coalition recently launched a contest which makes good use of its biggest natural resource this time of year, ice. The question to answer to win the contest is: “When will the Ice Break up in Belleisle Bay?” The winner with the guess closest to the minute may take home over $4000 if all 5000 tickets are sold. Launched in time for Spring, entrants pay a Toonie a ticket to guess the month, day, hour and minute that the ice will leave the Bay. The earliest record, according to David Henderson of the Kings County Record was March 31, 1925. Last year, it was April 24 at 11:00am. The latest recorded date was May 9 in 1939. “Instead of putting money on a horse race, like the Irish Sweepstakes, we want people to put their money on the Belleisle Bay Ice‐Break up,” said Sharon Cunningham, chairman of the Belleisle Watershed Coalition. “We got

the idea from Alaska, where the Nenana Ice Classic has been flourishing since the early 1900s, Nenana has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to benefit community activities using a 50.50 draw. We plan to use our share of the money raised to support our summer programs so that we can hire local students for sustainable environmental projects”. The correct time of the Ice Break Up will be recorded by a surveillance camera focussed on a pole located in the channel off Hatfield Point wharf. When it topples, the time date on the video will indicate the winning time. The winner will be announced on Thursday, May 14 at the Belleisle Community Centre. The contest will end Sunday, May 10 – or sooner if the ice breaks up earlier. See: belleislebay.ca for contest information, where to purchase tickets and how to become an agent and raise money for your own group or team. Also, watch FB: belleisle watershed coalition or email bbwatch124@gmail. com. 3410
HiTechSJ owner Chris Pyne supplied the video surveillance camera to Belleisle Watershed Coalition. Accurate information when the red and white pole topples is essential for the Ice‐Break Up Contest

FAMILY MATTERS CULTIVATING PARENTAL CONFIDENCE Parents wear so many hats and play so many roles these days. When parents are coaches, educators, chefs, child care providers, cleaners, social planners and wellness ambassadors it is hard to feel masterful in parenting. It is especially difficult when there seems to be little
consistency in parenting techniques. All too often what works one day doesn’t work the next and by the end of a busy week our parental confidence is nothing less than shaky. It is not uncommon to defer to reading books, websites, blogs, expert opinions and observing other parents when we feel uncertain about what to do. Although there is nothing wrong
COMMUNITY FORUM WE NEED YOU! The Alzheimer Society will be hosting a Community Forum to discuss some of the programs and services we want to bring to your area. Date: Thursday, March 26th Time: 6:30pm - 8:00pm Location: Sussex & Area Senior’s Centre, 50 Perry Street

with stuffing our ‘parent tool bag’ with resources, in the end, despite all our supports, parenting confidence often develops from trial and error, doing and learning and a whole lot of trust. As we cultivate our parental practices from our values we feel more confident in the decisions we make but there are some things to remember along the way. 1. You Are The Expert Of Your Child(ren): You’ve spent a lot of hours watching and listening to your kiddos. You’ve got the data. Consider the information and advice from trusted sources, but at the end of the day, make parenting decisions based on your own experience. 2. Your Kids Need Your Confidence: Confident parents make kids feel more secure. You are the leader. 3. Guilt Can Undermine Confidence: Guilt can undermine confidence, but there’s a difference between useful guilt and false guilt. ‘Useful guilt’ is our conscience telling us that something important is wrong, such as when screen time has taken over face-to-face time in the family. ‘False guilt’ is that guilt that doesn’t really matter in the long run, such as worrying that the laundry didn’t get done. 4. Each Day You’re Getting Better: We all make mistakes. Parenting is an art. We eventually figure things out and our children grow up. That’s why grandparents have a more relaxed attitude about raising kids. They have developed confidence, patience and perspective. 5. Focus On What Is Going Right: As parents it’s easy to dwell on our failings such as losing your cool when the kids missed the bus. However, it is far better for your confidence to remember what you did right, such as taking time to listen to recess stories and helping with school homework. Enjoy the journey in parenting and find ways this week to cultivate your confidence. 0006

MUSINGS SPRING, REALLY? The calendar says it is Spring. If you track the passage of the hummingbird migration (hummingbirds.net/map. html), it looks like Spring is approaching our neck of the woods. I know we are all sick of the white stuff, that no matter how pretty has grown really old, but I refuse to dwell on that. It is, after all, Spring. The Atlantic National Home Show 2015 has come and gone, the Sussex Kiwanis Home & Lifestyle Show approaches. Regardless of what you see outside your window, we will soon enough be complaining about mowing the lawn and fighting blackflies. I am eager to see what my flower garden does this year. This will be the second summer after I transplanted a large number of daylily pieces from my mother’s lovely collection. They all survived and did well last year but this year they should be larger and showier. I will no doubt want to mark
the colours so as to decide what needs shifting around for the best colour combinations. (I was always the kid who kept moving around the multicoloured Christmas tree lights for the same reason!) I have been fortunate that the deer have left my flowers alone. Unfortunately the same cannot be said of the raspberry patch. The first couple of years it did extremely well, but last year the canes were broken and chewed and we got very few berries. Not sure yet if it will get fenced or if some other solution will be attempted, but I would prefer to have to fight off only the grand granddaughter and occasionally the Jet for the berries (yes dogs like raspberries, or at least the Jet does) and not the deer too! Meantime, I am packing away all those cozy winter blankets and such and bringing out the spring decor items. No matter what it is doing outside, my house will reflect the change of the season. If you are a proponent of the Law
of Attraction, perhaps this will bring Spring along. According to Wikepedia, the law of attraction is the concept that "like attracts like" and that by focusing on positive or negative thoughts, one can bring about positive or negative results. Perhaps the combined negative thoughts of all of us complaining about winter is just bringing us more of the same! So . . . it will be Spring in my house and I will not dwell on that four letter word that rhymes with row! “That is one good thing about this world...there are always sure to be more springs.” ~ L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Avonlea. 0002
