The Hampton Herald
I was recently out in the woods doing some cutting and thought I should stop and sharpen up the chainsaw. So, I am kneeling by the roadside, merrily filing away when my eyes spied some movement. So I look up and I see momma, then this year’s fawn and the spike horn. They are roughly 40 or 50 feet away, but as I am filing and talking to them, momma walks up to within 20 feet and is just looking at me, even as I get up and walk over to the tractor. So here is my take on the deer situation. I haven’t hunted in about 30 years and for the most part the deer and I get along pretty good. On the other hand, when I found a 2 foot white pine seedling ( a preferred tree in the woodlot) stripped darn near naked of needles, it was a good thing that I couldn’t get my hands on the rotten, no good creature at that moment. So now some of our communities have a deer cull (kill) going on, to try and reduce the numbers of deer living in and around populated areas. I know for sure that some people are quite upset by the notion of armed people being allowed anywhere near their property, and certainly a municipal hunt has to have some increased danger of accident, than one carried out in scarcely populated rural areas. And, certainly, hunting is far less likely to be well received by town residents who have never handled a weapon. So my first question is “What is the goal of the cull”. Will anti-deer
residents jump for joy when they only find three or four deer raiding their garden, instead of the usual five?????? Or is it more likely that one deer and one missing hosta is still unacceptable. But, as usual I do have a solution. As usual, many will suspect that I am nuts. I, like many of you believed that deer belong out in the forest. But… not true. From a document from http://www. elements.nb.ca. “Deer were rare in the Maritimes in the early 1600s, and remained so for most of the next three hundred years. A scarcity of immature forest cover and clearings, their principal habitat, was probably the main factor limiting expansion of the whitetail's range.” You see, for over a century, we have been devastating our forests and creating great deer habitat. If we just stop the clear cutting and other bad practices, the deer population will just wither away. Get rid of your lawn, plants and grow great big trees and the deer will be gone! 0001

The term AUDIOLOGY refers to the science of hearing. A much broader definition of audiology is the discipline involved in the prevention, identification, and evaluation of hearing and balance disorders. Audiology was born out of the armed forces rehabilitation programs during and following World War II. Academics from disciplines such as deaf education, speech pathology, psychology, and other scientific backgrounds invented the early testing, auditory training, and amplification protocols needed to meet the needs of thousands of WWII veterans with hearing loss. These events, combined with the simultaneous development of the equipment necessary to evaluate hearing, formed the early seeds of the profession we know today as audiology. Near the end of World War II, the US army established three aural rehabilitation centres to provide medical and rehabilitative services to soldiers returning from the war. Raymond Carhart, a young captain in the Army Medical Corps developed a protocol for the fitting and evaluation of hearing aids that became a model for clinical practice for many years. Carhart returned to Northwestern University following World War II. There, he developed a graduate training program that produced many of the leaders of the audiology profession for the remainder of the century. “Thank you to all the men and women who bravely served and sacrificed for our country” Rhonda Finlay B.A., M.S.c.

FAMILY MATTERS by anita Hofmann 7 STEPS TO HOMEWORK SUCCESS Homework like taxes is an inevitable part of being a parent of a school aged child. The question in most homes is how to make homework a more enjoyable experience for parent and child. Going through the ‘7 Steps to Homework Success’ can make homework less of an ordeal. Step 1. Accept that most kids don't like doing homework. When there are many other things children could be doing it's hard to get them excited about homework, especially after a long day at school. Accepting this fact makes it easier to work with your child to develop a plan on how things can get done. Step 2. Know the benefits of homework. If parents are not convinced that homework matters, it will be hard to convince their children. Discuss with children the benefits of moderate amounts of homework.
Step 3. Be a facilitator. Bribery and pleading may result in immediate completion of homework but will not help in developing an intrinsic desire to do it long term. Try to facilitate the process by involving the kids. Empower children by getting input into the homework environment, routine, breaks and ground rules to make them feel more in charge of their work. Step 4. Shift from you to them. A child’s unwillingness to do homework doesn’t have to rest entirely on the parent. Children need to know there are consequences for not completing homework, at home and school. Parents should not be standing over children. Rather parents should consider each child’s interests and personality and work with who that child is. Step 5. Be engaged but know when to step away. It is easier for parent and child when the parent knows when to guide and when the child can be left alone to do his/her work. This develops important skills like independence and

responsibility. Step 6. Share homework time. Parents have homework too such as paying bills. When children see parents doing their homework kids realize that homework relates to adulthood tasks, making it more relatable. Step 7. Change the name. With child input, consider changing the name homework. ‘Study time’ and ‘a day in review’ suggest the tasks are more about learning and growing and less about work. It is possible to minimize the nightly homework struggles. Motivating children to take the initiative to start it on their own makes life easier at home and school. 0006

LISTEN IN by Jeff Liberty SOMETIMES YOU SHOULDN’T GO HOME New Brunswick native Jason Bourque is a writer/filmmaker who now makes his home out west. It’s an interesting e-conversation and includes the talk around his recent film “Black Fly” that was “Inspired by true events”. JL - When did you first realize you wanted to be a filmmaker? JB - I grew up on “Fangoria” magazines and the VHS era of schlocky horror movies. I always had a keen sense of cinematic storytelling, mostly through my artwork and my own comics. Once the portable VHS camcorder came out, I started experimenting with this new medium. Early short films usually involved Sam Raimi’s recipe for fake blood used in Evil Dead and had titles like "Brains". When I was fifteen I made a zombie flick with the neighbourhood kids in Renforth, New Brunswick called "Dead Skin". JL - Who are some of filmmakers that have

inspired you over the years? JB - I remember a rainy Saturday on the Kingston Peninsula when my brother and I binge watched several horror movies. I ended up seeing John Carpenter's "The Thing" and Ridley Scott's Alien" backto-back. Both those filmmakers left an indelible mark on me. JL - What are you currently working on? JB - As a working director and writer, I pay the bills mostly with made for television movies while developing my passion projects. I have a thriller "Stolen Dreams", my 3rd movie of the week this year, going to camera beginning of December. As a follow-up to "Black Fly", I have a possession horror called "Jawbone" in development as well as "Prairie Fever", a Canadian coming of age story based in the 1950s during the polio epidemic. JL - How are folks reacting to your newest film "Black Fly"? JB - "Black Fly" response has been extremely positive.

more on character and the aftermath of violence. "Black Fly" is inspired by my experiences growing up on the Kingston Peninsula and having serial killer Noel Winters in the community; it's a true passion project. We sold out the first two screenings at the Vancouver Film Festival and were awarded a third screening due to audience demand. Unlike the television movies, I had complete creative freedom to make "Black Fly" due to Telefilm, Rogers Telefund and Super Channel. I would love to show it in New Brunswick. I have lots of friends and family back there and we're currently looking at ways to have a public screening. JL - Does music play a big role in your films? What are your top 5 favorite songs and/or artists? JB - I love The Eagles, Bon Jovi, Trooper, Lover Boy, Rush. 0041

Remembrance Day 2014
Why it’s Important to Remember
Some of the most defining moments of Canadian history have taken place on battlefields far from Canada. Many people consider the battle of Vimy Ridge to be the defining moment when Canada came out from under the British Empire and stood on its own two feet for the world to see. A time when Canadians accomplished the unthinkable. Juno Beach was another moment in Canadian history when our soldiers stepped up and did their best for the
values Canadians believed to be worth fighting for. Today, Juno Beach and Vimy Ridge seem like the distant past, storied battles fought long ago; but those stories are important, they keep the memories of our brave men and women who have fought and died for our country alive. While those who went to war may have been thinking of their own loved ones and the values and beliefs that they held near and dear to their hearts, they were also protecting our values and ensuring that the Canada they loved had a future they could be proud of. We enjoy the freedoms and

History of the Poppy
The iconic poppy bloomed in Flanders Field after the bloody battles which took place there, and they still continue to bloom across Flanders today. It was a French woman, Madame E. Guérin, who first came up with the idea of wearing poppies as a symbol of the war. They were made by woman and children and the money was used to support wounded Veterans. The Poppy, as a symbol of remembrance, first came to Canada in November of 1921 and has bloomed over the hearts of Canadians ever since. Over 18,000,000 poppies are sold in Canada and overseas annually. All the money from poppy sales goes

of the eleventh day of the eleventh month).
Over a half a million Canadians fought in World War One. Over one million Canadians fought in World War Two. Today we wear a poppy in remembrance of Canadians who fought in all wars, and those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
The first Armistice Day was held on the one year anniversary of the war’s end but didn’t become an official holiday until it was passed as the Armistice Day Act in May 1921. The Government, wishing to appease the business community combined the newly formed Armistice Day with the Thanksgiving holiday, but this did not sit well with Veterans and the general public who did not like the idea of celebrating both a solemn occasion of remembrance and the bountiful occasion of Thanksgiving on the same day. The two holidays stayed linked for a decade to be held on the Monday before November 11.
Why November 11th?
Remembrance Day used to be known as Armistice Day to recognize the Armistice signed by the Allies and Germany at the end of World War One, which took place November 11, 1918, at 11:00am (the eleventh hour

Thus the first Remembrance Day was held on November 11, 1931 and Thanksgiving was pushed to mid-October to separate the two holidays.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.

God of our fathers, known of old— Lord of our far-flung battle line Beneath whose awful hand we hold Dominion over palm and pine— Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget - lest we forget!
We Remember The Sacrifices Made For Our Freedom.
The tumult and the shouting dies; The captains and the kings depart: Still stands Thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heart. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget - lest we forget!

Far-called, our navies melt away; On dune and headland sinks the fire: Lo, all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Nineveh and Tyre! Judge of the Nations, spare us yet, Lest we forget - lest we forget!
We will never forget your sacrifice
If, drunk with sight of power, we loose Wild tongues that have not Thee in awe— Such boasting as the Gentiles use Or lesser breeds without the law— Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget - lest we forget! For heathen heart that puts her trust In reeking tube and iron shard— All valiant dust that builds on dust, And guarding, calls not Thee to guard— For frantic boast and foolish word, Thy mercy on Thy people, Lord!

Today I took my poppy and pinned it on my coat And as I did I noticed a lump came to my throat. The poppy bloomed upon my coat, a symbol that I wore To show that I appreciate the pain Canadians bore Men who then were young and trim, who went away to keep The freedoms Canadians held dear, and I began to weep. Some of them who sailed away never journeyed home. They sacrificed on foreign soil, and fought and died alone! Others fulfilled their mission and set their sights to see Their lives forever changed by their gift to you and me. Now their frames are stooped with age and their steps are getting slow But their passion still burns bright; they have the torch to throw. So today I wore my poppy to remember those who died And to say “thank you” to those still walking by my side. Those two small words are not enough to show that I remember And so I wear my poppy on the eleventh of November. My heart o’erflows with gratitude and love for what you gave So that freedoms we must all hold dear are well preserved and saved. Thank you to each veteran-we never will forget! We love you and we honour you; forever in your debt!
Written to honour my dear friend, veteran Walter W. White.

Get your car Winter READY New Year’s might be when you hear “out with the old and in with the new” most often, but for your wiper blades now is the perfect time to ditch the old and go pick up a couple new ones. They often suffer the most wear and tear in the winter from the slushy salt spray that coats our cars. Also, now is a great time to wax your car and keep your finish safe from winter’s grime and grit. Pick a cool overcast day and start in the morning. Follow the directions on the wax, and have plenty of clean dry clothes around for buffing. Breaking down is never fun, no matter when it happens, but like anything else sometimes it can be worse than others; like at night, when it’s well below zero and there’s no cell phone reception. Keeping an emergency kit in your trunk can help turn a catastrophe into a bit of a pickle and an amusing story to tell later. Don’t worry about the band-aids, this emergency kit is designed for winter. Blankets and sugary food is a great place to start, but the best emergency kits aren’t the ones that help you cope with an emergency, there the ones that get you out
of an emergency and back on the road. An active emergency kit, rather than a passive emergency kit. Get together everything you think you’ll need to get yourself back on the road. Small flashlights are brighter and cheaper than ever, keep the flashlight in your glove box, because frozen batteries don’t work. Pack a set of gloves and a hat, because if you’re going to fix something chances are you’re going to have to go outside to do it. Put together a winter car survival kit. Jumper cables, flares, ice scrapers, road salt, flashlights, flares, blankets, first aid materials and snacks are all good to include in your kit. A small shovel, kitty litter, or gravel, and some de-icer can help you get unstuck. Throw in some jumper cables in case the battery goes. While you’re at it make sure you have your jack and tire iron in case you need you throw the spare on. Which you’ve already checked and made sure it was properly inflated. Having an extra windshield brush, a tire pressure gauge and some spare auto fluids wouldn’t hurt either. If you travel backroads and think you may get stuck for more than a couple hours some extra food and water should be added too. Buy small 500ml bottles of water, these are easier to melt than the four litre jugs.
A good place to start is picking up a preassembled emergency kit from the store and adding what you need to it. A small backpack, or re-usable shopping bag can be great to keep all of this stuff from rolling around in your trunk. That being said the best emergency kit is still a worse solution than not having an emergency, especially a preventable one. If your vehicle is sound but there’s a storm raging and you don’t feel like it’s a good night to drive, than cancel your plans and stay in. snowbanks are no place for a tea party. Let’s all be safe this winter on the road and take it slow. We can’t control the weather but we can control how we drive.

SMALL BUSINESS CELEBRATED IN HAMPTON The Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce held its annual salute to Small Business on Thursday, October 23, at an awards presentation dinner catered by the Corinthian Masonic Lodge.

point oF VieW SENTENCING AND REMEMBRANCE Just four months after Justin Bourque brutally murdered three Moncton RCMP officers and wounded two others, he was back in court last week for a two-day sentencing hearing. Unfortunately, we didn't learn his fate until after this issue was printed, but I'm hoping and praying that he's handed the longest prison sentence in Canadian history – 75 years. Some would say his sentence, whether it is 50 or 75 years, is fitting for the crimes he committed. But, is it? Bourque will likely spend the rest of his life behind bars, at the expense of Canadian taxpayers. He will receive three square meals/day, a roof over his head, access to multiple post-secondary and vocational programs, healthcare, recreation facilities, counselling and rehabilitation programs, family visits and a small daily wage for “work” within the prison. It costs taxpayers an estimated $118,000/year to house just one inmate in
by diane mcmillan
the federal prison system – Bourque is now one of them! I, like most, will never forget where I was and what I was doing the moment I learned about the drama unfolding in Moncton that night. It was June 4 and I was feeling a little down about turning another year older the following day. Then, Justin Bourque's unthinkable actions changed all that. I was suddenly thankful that I was still here to celebrate another birthday - three RCMP officers would not get that chance. That night, social media exploded with news of the shootings and subsequent manhunt just one hour away in Moncton. It was surreal, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing, hearing and reading. What would possess anyone to intentionally seek out and murder the very people who were there to serve and protect us? Cst. Doug Larche, Cst. Dave Ross and Cst. Fabrice Gevaudan lost their lives, and their parents, wives and children also received a life sentence that night. Cst. Dave Ross wasn't there for the recent birth of his second child and Cst. Doug Larche didn't
get to see his oldest daughter attend her first dance. They won't be there to see their children graduate, get married or start families of their own. In a country that's not accustomed to 9/11 style attacks, Canada lost some of its innocence that night. Last month’s shooting death of Canadian soldier, Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, while he was on ceremonial guard duty at the National War Memorial in Ottawa, took away even more. As we prepare to observe Remembrance Day on November 11, take a moment to focus not on the evil that surrounds us, but on our heroes, both past and present, and the price they paid for our freedom. 0032
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT The 44th Annual
Did you know... You may not be properly insured when plowing with your personal vehicle? That time of year is fast approaching and we are all starting to think about snow removal. If you have, or are thinking of getting a plow for your truck, be aware that you are only insured to plow your own driveway. If you plan to plow for others (family, friends, neighbours) you may require a commercial policy to make sure you have proper coverage. If you only plow your own driveway, you are still required to notify your insurance provider that you have a plow. If you are involved in an accident with your plow attached to your truck, the claim may be denied if your insurer is not aware of the attached equipment.
Belleisle Home & School Harvest Auction was a huge success, raising over $20,000! Thank you to all the businesses and our community for their generous support in making the auction such a success.

asK tHe CHeF by colin sifton DO’S & DON’TS OF COOKING VEGGIES Colin Sifton here again with another answer to your question. This week I will be talking about how to properly cook vegetables. A lot of people cook vegetables incorrectly. By doing so we lose the main reason of having vegetables in our diet. When I was growing up I saw my mother put all the vegetables, no matter what they were, into a pot of cold water and start the vegetables cooking from that point. The problem I learnt from this is that the vegetables not only got over cooked but the vitamins and nutrients of the vegetable were lost in the process. Another mistake people make when cooking most vegetables is over cooking them Again this removes a lot of the vitamins and nutrients of the vegetables. Vegetables should have a bit of crunch left in them when they are cooked. Green vegetables should still be vibrantly green not pale when they are done.

What I do when cooking most vegetables is to bring a pot of boiling water to a boil. You can add a small amount of salt to the waterbed, but it is not necessary. Once the water is boiling, add your vegetables and bring back to a boil for about three minutes. Test with a fork for the doneness you are looking for. Drain off the water and serve. The exception to this rule is root vegetables. Carrots, beets, potatoes and others similar to these can be cooked from cold water because they are not as delicate as most. This time of year we have greater access to root vegetables than the mid-summer leafy vegetables. Squash and beets become a treat for the next few weeks and then everything will come from either our cellars or from the southern United States. A great way to serve these root vegetables is to roast them in the oven. Cut your root vegetables, whatever they are, into 1 inch cubes, place them into a bowl with oil, salt, pepper and a little honey. Toss your vegetables together, making sure they are
completely covered with the oil and honey and place in the oven at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or to the doneness you require. Maybe throwing on the broiler of your stove for the last couple of minutes to get some nice brown colouring will make all the difference. Vegetables are the most important part of a complete meal. Growing up I did not always enjoy certain ones because of how they were cooked. As I got older and learned how to do it correctly, I found that I enjoyed more and more vegetables. Best example of this was asparagus. Couldn’t get me to eat one bite growing up but it is now my second favourite vegetable to eat. Must be all those vitamins and nutrients I was missing out on. 0040

PENINSULA PEARLS NEWS The Peninsula Pearls have had a busy fall since our first meeting on September 8 when a successful Bring & Buy sale was held, and a buddy system was talked about. Dave Wolpin was our guest speaker on September 29. He spoke of healthy eating, especially fruit, vegetables and nuts. Most of us are guilty of not eating like we should. 17 members travelled by car to Pennfield, Lepreau and Maces Bay on September 16. We were served a delicious lunch by the Macy Bay Seniors of soup, sandwiches and sweets. Stops along the way were coffee at Smithys, McKay Blueberries and the Lepreau Falls. Several members attended the Seniors Fall Fest at the Hope Centre, Loch Lomond on October 22. They had an enjoyable day. Janet & Rick Golding were our guests on October 27 for our country day theme. They sing, dance and play music. Everyone really enjoyed the afternoon. Submitted by N. Dann. 0028

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS The Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership has received a number of letters from the 105 high school students for whom we are paying school fees at Peak Central and Fundukuwela high schools. Some came to us addressed to “Hampton” because the students do not, as yet, have a personal sponsor. (Their school fees are paid from the funds we generate from our fundraising events like Concert by the Creek and Potluck for Piggs Peak). I thought I would share some excerpts. “I wish God to bless you to continue giving people like me this opportunity… I promise I will pass all my subjects and make this world a better place to live in.” “I want to thank you for your help… you took me from darkness to light.” “At home we have no electricity and I study with candles… God bless you for bringing me back to school. Keep it up for other people.” “I live with 3 sisters who are blind and one brother. I thank you for paying school fees… My parents have died. I have no guardian at home… I am studying very hard.” “I would like to say thank you Hampton
for sponsoring me. May our father God bless you Hampton.” “I thank you for bringing me back to school because education is the key to succeed…. Without your support I will be starving at home for education. I study using candles. I am staying in a house made of wood and mud. I wish God may bless you.” “You have just changed my life from
being a street kid to be an educated person… I just feel so happy that you have placed me to the highest level of life and now I will be something better in the future. I wish the almighty will bless you and make you continue helping others.” You will notice a common theme of thankfulness to Hampton, blessings from God and a wish for help for others like them. These students live in difficult circumstances but they work hard at school because they want to make us proud! For $25 per month or $300 per year, you can join our very special group of Starfish sponsors and allow one of these students, or one like them, to attend school next year. We all have our day to day challenges but I dare say they don’t compare with those faced by young people in Swaziland. For many of us, $300 per year is a manageable amount to give. For many of them, this would be a dream come true. You can donate online at: hamptonpiggspeak.ca or by contacting me, Mark Bettle, at 832-0003 or bettlem@ nbnet.nb.ca. 0010

musinGs by debbie hickey BRAVERY From www.merriam-webster.com is this definition of bravery: “the quality that allows someone to do things that are dangerous or frightening; the quality or state of being brave.” I occasionally reflect on the concept of bravery. Each year as Remembrance Day arrives I wonder about the qualities that led young men and women to volunteer to go to war. As my own children came of the age that the majority of those recruits would have been, I realized just how young they were, and was conscious of how difficult it must have been for the families wondering how their loved ones were doing. I have sometimes wondered about how I would react if something threatened my children, particularly when they were young and under my direct care. Would I have been the mother who

jumped in front of the car to push them out of the way? Would I have been able to overcome my own fear of drowning to jump in after them if they were in trouble in the water? I do not know, I was fortunate enough to have not been put to that test. Why do some people act quickly, willing to take a risk for a stranger? What makes them run toward danger rather than away from it? Even if this is their “job”, what is it that allows them to put themselves in harm’s way? Do people learn to be brave? Is it a result of the training that members of the military, police officers, firefighters, and similar occupations undergo? Does the constant repetition make it such a strong habit of behaviour that it can overcome that instinct for self-preservation? Or are they born “brave” and therefore are attracted to such professions? Is the default position for their “fight or flight” response somehow weighted toward
fight? I don’t know the answers, but I am awed by those who run toward the danger. Events this year in Moncton and Ottawa generated lots of media coverage and recognition of those who were tested and stepped up. In reality, we are surrounded by heroes, and they would be the first to humbly tell you they were just doing their job, or that anyone would have done the same. Kudos, and thank you to all of our heroes. We would be a very different world without you. 0002
