The Sussex Herald
I have worked in customer service in one capacity or another since I turned 16 years old. My first “real” job was at a little kiosk in the Sussex Mall serving snacks and treats. I quickly learned that being on the other side of the counter was not the glamorous occupation I had pictured. Aside from providing customer service to a public that could occasionally be demanding, I was also expected to perform “menial” labour such as mopping and cleaning grills. From there, I worked in a bakery, as a cashier, a day camp counselor and as a server. The skills and life lessons learned on these jobs are invaluable and I continue to use them on a daily basis. One of the first lessons I learned at the tender age of 16 was that the customer was not always right- but you must address any situation that arises professionally, always treating the client with dignity and respect. When I began my career in legal office administration I foolishly thought that my customer service days were a thing of the past, however it wasn't long before I realized that I would need every lesson learned from my previous jobs. Working in a law office is a balancing act between managing deadlines, processing paperwork and helping clients. As in any other customer service position, the client is the most important factor in running a successful law office and those early lessons in customer service proved to be priceless. I will forever be grateful to the wonderful educators I encountered in my various positions. Whether the
individual was an experienced coworker providing tips and tricks for coping with stressful situations or a “demanding” employer that required a job be performed to their specifications regardless of how I felt about the task, the life lessons continue to benefit me both at home and in the office. The skills I developed and the lessons I gained are as essential to me now as any education I gained through my formal schooling. I would never have imagined when scrubbing toilets or standing on my feet for 10 hours at a time that a job in the service industry was anything less than a means to an end. Now I understand how important each position was to my individual growth. Much as some countries have mandatory military service following high school, I believe that we should require our youth to spend at least one year serving the general public. The patience, coping skills, and understanding of other people’s perspective and needs would prove to be invaluable tools both at an institute for higher learning and in any future career. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the matter- letters to the editor are always welcome! 0001

WELL RESTED WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE WHEN YOU SLEEP? Picture yourself sleeping. Sleeping like a baby are you? A video recording of yourself during the wee small hours might surprise or even shock you! If you have ever tried to convince someone that they snore, you’ve probably met with some resistance. Even when told by others that we snore, stop breathing or otherwise have disrupted sleep, deep down, we don’t believe them or feel they are exaggerating. What is wrong with snoring? It could indicate a more troublesome and dangerous condition: Sleep Apnea. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a very common sleep disorder. It is marked by snoring, pauses in breathing, gasping for air and daytime sleepiness. Other factors in OSA include morning headaches, a large neck, being overweight and high blood pressure. There are strong associations between untreated Sleep Apnea and
Cardiovascular Disease. Those with untreated OSA are at greater risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, heart attack, stroke and early death due cardiovascular problems as well as car accidents due to daytime sleepiness. Researchers have recently discovered that many of us have a mistaken impression of what goes on in our sleep. Lead Researcher, Mark Aloia and other scientists divided people with sleep apnea into 2 groups. One group was shown a video of themselves when sleeping, the other was not. The results were very dramatic. The video group were shocked to see themselves snore, gasp, toss, turn and jolt awake out of their deep sleep. Some of the viewers became very emotional and weepy. They felt as if they were watching themselves being choked or drowning. This is exactly what sleep apnea looks like. The effect that the video had on the
behavior of the group was dramatic as well. They started keeping their CPAP mask on three hours longer per night than those who had not watched a video of themselves. The scare of seeing the reality of their sleep encouraged them to stick to their treatment and lower their health risks. So if you are curious about what is happening in your sleep, prop up that video camera and hit record. You may be surprised what you see! 0038

When disco diva, Deloris Van Cartier, witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in the one
place the cops are sure she won’t be a found: a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight Mother Superior. To create the feel of a real convent with people of various ages and walks of life, the KV Players have brought in women from the age of 1665 to participate in this production.

the friends you couldn’t during the summer and the change of pace and environment is a positive one. Unfortunately, it seems like these feelings are not made to last; after that first week, school just turns into a giant task that’s often hard to manage. This is because there is one thing that students tend to forget; school is not just a place to learn, but also one that allows students to find themselves. Many will ask how this is possible, because to them school just sucks. To sum it up in two words: Get Involved!
their own flavor, style and skill set required. By trying out a few (or all) it becomes easier to see your likes or dislikes, and each experience exposes one to new ways of thinking, producing a more rounded and self-aware individual. But students won’t notice these things; to them it just makes school more fun and interesting; who doesn’t want that!
are found to have better time management, broader social circles, and a stronger mind. When all is said and done, getting involved in school, taking part in community festivals, and trying new things will make for a much more rounded and balanced you. Life is what you make it: so make this fall as good as it can be.
This is the beauty of school; it is what you make of it. One can be as involved as they wish and fill their plate with as much as they desire. It This is where activities, sports will benefit them in the end. and clubs come in - each with Students who get involved

TENDING TO MY PATCH NOT ALL BUGS ARE BAD In the home garden the presence of disease and insects is commonplace. While most insects might be ugly to many homeowners, knowing which are good and which are bad and attracting the good guys to eat the bad guys can be critical first steps. Identifying these pests may be more important than ever to gardeners this year. Beneficial insects are any of a number of species of insects that perform valued services like pollination and pest control. Biological Control involves the use of one insect to attack another to reduce the population. Ladybugs and nematodes are examples. Know what is present in your home garden: Spend some time in your garden and identify what type of garden pest is present. Determine your tolerance level. This level will vary greatly between gardeners. Sometimes hand-picking a pest or blasting it off a plant with water will
suffice – and it’s free! Always remember: not all pests cause enough damage to require action. Let bugs do your dirty work. Release biocontrols, both as a preventative and as a control measure. Also, attract natural predators to your garden by planting a row or border of “insectary plants.” Fennel, calendula, coriander, dill, and cosmos are all considered good plants for attracting beneficials. Wage war, if you must. If treatment is required, begin with methods that are least damaging to natural controls and the environment. Adopting any of these controls is representative of an Integrated Pest Management Strategy (IPM) BTK is a Biological Insecticide which can be used on many types of garden pests. Although these are not natural/ organic Ambush and Malathion are still available for the home owner. Any type of pesticides that affect even the beneficial insects, can have a detrimental effect on
your local garden ecosystem. Some plant varieties are subject to attracting various types of bugs and insects. Just remember, killing off all of the insects in your garden is not the desired result. Take a common sense approach to pest control. Be proactive. There's nothing like having a home garden to make you begin to appreciate the trials and tribulations of growing your own food and beautiful flowers. Between weather, weeds, and insects, it can be an incredibly humbling experience to try to put food on the table from your garden, and to showcase your perfect prize winning roses and other flowers. 0034

EXERCISE FOR HEALTH NO PAIN NO GAIN? It is a common misconception that for you to know your workout has been done well enough a person should be very sore or hurting the next day. Having soreness is a normal part of strengthening your muscles, but it should not be painful. If you are experiencing pain 24 to 48 hours after your workout it most likely was done incorrectly or too intensely. If you feel pain during your workout stop what you are doing and correct your form if that does not remedy the pain stop completely. You should feel some strain if you are performing a new exercise, have increased the amount of weight being used or have increased intensity, push yourself to get results from your workout but listen to your body. “Feel the burn” refers to the sensation you get as your muscles reach fatigue during your exercise this is how your muscle lets you know that they have had enough. Feeling the burn is a good thing it simply means you have pushed
16
The Sussex Herald
your muscles to their maximum and that is where they should be if you wish to improve strength or achieve improved definition. The way you build muscle is to exert enough force to make tiny tears in the muscle tissue which can leave you feeling sore as they repair themselves but not to the extent that you cannot function normally while doing your daily activities. The other side of the story is exercising if you are “in” pain. To recovery from some injuries or surgeries you will need to work through the pain in order for things to heal properly. Many injuries and surgeries require strained muscles to be used rather than sitting or lying down waiting for things to heal or feel better. Some movement is better than none, unused muscles tend to shorten up and your joints can feel very stiff if not used for extended periods of time. Gentle exercise and stretching can actually help alleviate some pain helping muscles
heal a little faster. Start slowly, follow your doctor’s advice and stick with it, exercises are more effective if they are done consistently with the fullest range of motion that is recommended. Pain does not always have an obvious reason, illness, inflammation even arthritis can cause muscle pain. Exercise wisely if at any time you question the reason for pain or soreness do not hesitate to consult your doctor, good health should be of the utmost importance. 0046

SELF ESTEEM CAUTION: TOXIC PEOPLE AHEAD All dangerous liquids, hazardous products and poisonous chemicals are labelled ‘toxic’. There are warning labels that signify danger. These labels, combined with posted warning signs, ensure that everyone is aware of potential hazards because coming into contact with toxic substances can make you sick and could even ultimately kill you. However, we do not always recognize the “signs” when toxic people enter our lives. You are certain to encounter different people in your life and learning to avoid the toxic ones (or at least limit your time with them) helps you lead a less stressful, happier life. Toxic individuals are some of the most difficult kind of people to be around. They drain your motivation, inspiration and all around emotional well-being. These relationships can result in self-esteem issues and real life problems. How can you tell if someone is toxic? Constant negativity and a negative
attitude is one of the biggest signs that a toxic person can reveal. Their negativity includes many factors such as being overly sarcastic, constantly complaining, whining, and most of all, judging people and situations. Also, many toxic people feel the need to be right at all times. There is always drama, usually of their own making. Toxic people suck up your time without regard to what you have going on. They lie, they are self absorbed, controlling and hurtful. So, how can one protect oneself against toxic people? First, ignore them whenever possible. Avoid unnecessary interactions. Do not allow yourself to get drawn into petty arguments. Take what is said with a grain of salt. Never trust or rely on a toxic person. Set boundaries. There is a fine line between offering a helping hand and becoming deeply involved. Know when to say no and remove yourself from the situation. Find a solution, rather than being upset with person. Sometime the
solution is simply walking away. Work on your own self love and self care. This results in a healthy self-esteem. We must find joy and happiness from within instead of from the opinion or actions of the people around us. If there are toxic people in your life, be sure to evaluate the best way for you to handle the relationship. Sometimes it may mean ending the relationship, other times it may mean counselling is necessary and then there are times it may mean finding a solution in some other form. Either way, take the appropriate steps to care for you, protect yourself and stay safe. 0027

DOLLARS & SENSE THEY HAVE RAISED THE RATE, NOW WHAT? As of July 12, our wallets became a little tighter when it comes to debt repayment in Canada. So, should we worry? That depends, how financially well are you? If your current debt is at a fixed rate (like most mortgages, car loans and credit cards), you likely we won’t notice it. Even if you have a variable rate it may not seem too painful. But it does add up. Roughly, on a $200,000 mortgage, your monthly payment would increase by $25 ($300/ year). Most of us can absorb that, even though we do not like it. If you also have a line of credit, on a $20,000 debt, your annual interest cost could increase by +/- $50. This will probably not break the bank. But, for someone who has hit their financial max, and using credit to make it through the month, this could be a bumpy ride. Do we think it’s time to panic? ...no… Should we be prepared? …yes… The key to being financially well, is being able to
manage your current financial situation and any reasonable possible changes that could occur. Being financially well does not necessarily mean you are debt free, it essentially means you are financially capable and literate. Dealing with debt should not be like playing Jenga. If you are financially well you have a solid financial foundation that is not teetering on the hope that another brick doesn’t come out at the wrong spot. It is also a strong building upward, with little gaps. It will take time to know if the Bank of Canada will continue to raise rates and, if so, what that would look like for you financially. There is no time like the present to pay down what you can and limit how much debt you are carrying. It does not mean consolidate, you would have to look at what is best for your situation. It could be focusing on one debt at a time until it is paid in full. I know it can be tough to figure
out what your best options are, and it is good to seek advice from those that deal with this everyday, such as a credit counsellor. Mapping out your plan through a budget sheet can be a great place to start. In the end, the interest rate rise does mean something. Think about that $350, what if you had that money now to pay down on your debt, does that change your situation? I bet it does. 0005

TALES FROM THE CAMERA BAG ISN’T SUMMER GREAT! What, with the art shows, studio hopping, concerts in the park, farmer's markets, there is something for everyone. Heck we attended a free concert in the park in Peterborough ON featuring Jesse Cook, how good is that as I watch my 85 year old mom rock out to the music. During one of my stops while travelling to Ontario we stopped at a park off the highway, it had a washroom, a small restaurant and a small art gallery. When I looked thru the glass to view the art I realized that I was picky about what I liked, but I was surprised at what I did like. Later on this trip, we went to the “Gallery on the Lake” in Buckhorn a marvelous building in the woods overlooking a lake. Here we saw works of art in oils, watercolor, silk art, fabric art, woodworking, paper art and pottery. Not only did I leave with two new pottery bowls, most importantly I left inspired, renewed and determined to get those
great shots. Later we visited Vieux Quebec during their summer festival and it was energetic . Music and art everywhere. One can not leave places like this not feel motivated. But how does this motivated and inspiration interpret itself into my photography? When I ponder this question I realize that I am full of ideas. Also when I m under this crafty trance I become much more open to the possibilities. The shaft of light through the trees or the mist rising of the tremendous falls backlit. Yep, I have a confession to make, I’ll be the guy who when he makes an image of a flower, instead of standing over it, I will on my back facing up and explore the light and flower from below. By mimicking the art we experienced we may see a sailboat on the water differently and capture it as a motion blur. Not only capturing the boat but also the movement and excitement of sailing. The piece of art that I was surprised
I liked was a monochromatic brown scene of nature done as a piece of impressionism. It was produced in broad fluid strokes trees shrubs and a small hill. Could I mimic this style? Perhaps I will get out into a field with some trees, shrubs and perhaps a fence line and with a neutral density filter, so as to require a longer exposure and wait for a breeze to come by to stir the leaves and flowers and let nature create motion and art for me? 0032
