The Sussex Herald

It is unfortunate that in New Brunswick we have a massive concentration of ownership within the newspaper industry. I do mean the Irvings. That elderly Hickey lady is still back in second place. The reason why this is bad?? Good questions that should be asked by our newspapers are sadly missing. Whether, you are pro-Irving or antiIrving... I am somewhere in between on most days... there really should be a debate about their powerful role within the province and how can we enhance the good stuff and minimize the bad stuff. Is it right that the only “Provincial” newspaper, the Telegraph Journal, flogs the government to get fracking in what seems like every second editorial written. Any thoughts about where this profracking opinion comes from?? I didn’t think so. How about, what I would call their hyper-competitiveness. In a document submitted to the Competition Bureau by Ken Langdon of what was then the Carleton Free Press, he refers to a

meeting of Brunswick News managers that he attended. To the question asked about what was planned for dealing with Ossekeag Publishing, the reply from the vice-president was essentially “drive them out of business”. I know how I feel about that reply, but a debate should ask the question whether such a competitive attitude towards locally owned small business is good for the Province. With many years of working with local businesses I personally suspect that the small business community in New Brunswick is smaller and less vital than in many other parts of Canada. Is Irving domination, a factor?? If we wish to have a strong vital economy in this province, any sensible analysis cannot avoid “The Irving question”. Let the debate begin!! 0001 Mike Hickey Tech Support, Ossekeag Publishing

LISTEN IN LIVE MUSIC ON THE PENINSULA I love when a good concert comes to a unique venue. As a fan of older interesting buildings with character, none make for a better venue than an old school house, barn or in this case an old church with a lot of wood to hug the music. It also makes for an ideal listening room where real music lovers can truly enjoy the music and camaraderie of community. The Trinity Church in Kingston has some amazing shows coming up over the next few months. I asked Rev. Peter Gillies why events such as these are so important to have in the church? “For a long time churches were the centre of their community. Often the biggest building; bigger than the school even! We felt that the churches in our care should return to those roots. The Anglican Parish of Kingston has a home parish church, Trinity, and three Chapels of Ease here on the Peninsula - four old churches, all historically significant in their own way. We have a responsibility to use them and care for them even though there are no where near as many Christians as there once were. The money that comes in helps maintain these buildings for sure, but you know, that’s not really what it is all about. We already have fundraisers mostly built around food! Things like our Spring Tea and our Autumn Salmon Dinner. Folks come from all over for those.” Like anything or anywhere worth going, whether it be a five star restaurant everyone is talking about or a must see performance these events and venue’s are destination places worth the trip. “Allowing our church-houses to be venues for community events, especially the arts,

takes us back to those times when the church was the patron of music. On the one hand, it gives our churches new life and on the other, allows those who come hear the music to see that we are alive and care for the communities in which we live. It brings the arts into the community. Hey, if you want to see Lloyd Cole in NB this year you will have drive to beautiful Kingston and hear him in a beautiful 226 year old church-house.” Rev. Peter Gillies enthusiastically tells me on what these shows mean to the greater community as a whole. The series kicks off with one of the finest songwriters, Lloyd Cole (formally Lloyd Cole & the Commotions fame) on Saturday, July 25 with special guest Lullaby Baxter & Robinson St.George. For tickets contact the Imperial theatre Box Office or call the parish at 763-3183. Check out: www.lloydcole.com. Other shows coming up at Trinity include: August 14 - Country Gospel Night; August 20 - Before the Mast; September 11 - Kitchen Party with Ivan & Vivian Hicks; September 25 - The Sea bells; October 25 - Men in Music and November 26 - Stephanie Mainville. 0041

GET FISHING EVERY KID IS DIFFERENT When I was a kid I loved spending as much time in the woods as I could. Dad and I would hike for hours into one of our favorite lakes, or sometimes use an ATV and fish all day long. Often, when weather and time allowed we would camp overnight by the water’s edge. For me this was the perfect way to spend my summer days! I have a brother, just a few years younger who didn’t share this passion for the outdoors. For him, time was better spent on the ball field or his bike playing with friends. We were, and still are really, two different kids. Now that I’m a Dad, with two boys a few years apart in age, I’m discovering that my kids are very similar in their differences to those between my brother and I - 30 plus years ago! Like me, my youngest son at just

4 years old, has a love for sport of fishing. I’ve had him on the back of my kayak casting lines for 6 to 8 hours at a time, and when it’s time to paddle back to shore, he’s somewhat sad that it’s time to stop. On the other hand, my older boy at 7 has little patience for fishing. He is proud of the fish he’s caught (including a 3 foot sturgeon), and will join me from time to time; however after an hour or two I know he’s ready to head back home. Learning how to read a child’s reaction to those activities you want to encourage is an important skill for any parent. This holds true for anything really, be it sports, music or so forth. There really isn’t any benefit to trying to force a child to love something you as a parent may be passionate about. To try and work around this, I’m hoping my older son will learn to enjoy being around the water in other ways. He is a great swimmer and now has his own kayak he can use to either

fish from or just paddle around in. I’m hoping by taking him camping, swimming and paddling, he’ll opt to pick up the rod from time to time, catch a fish and perhaps discover a love for fishing in his own way. For those with very young kids and are concerned about the danger that hooks may pose, here is a tip that I use with my youngest. Try using weedless hooks! These hooks have a small guard protecting the point which will greatly reduce any chance of an accidental ear piercing! They will also greatly reduce the number of times you have to rescue the hook from those weeds your child just can’t seem to avoid. 0044

happens to be loud, doesn't mean you don't have to parent. The truth is that nobody thinks your child is as cute and perfect as you do. Standing on chairs, running around, dancing between tables, yelling and screaming is not enjoyable – for anyone. Having children and taking them out to a restaurant requires some pre-planning and common sense. Always have a few snacks or books tucked away, in case they get restless and hungry while waiting for their meal. And, stay tuned in to your child, not just your phone or the adults around you. Oh, and if you want to order the screaming kid special, might I suggest you get it to go? 0032

Darla Neugebauer has got the whole world talking. The American diner owner came under fire this past week for yelling at a crying child inside her Portland, Maine eating establishment. News of her angry outburst spread like wildfire and everyone was quick to share an opinion. Many were outraged that this woman dare yell at someone else's crying child, while others praised her for taking a stance against parents who ignore their children when dining out. The owner says she became increasingly frustrated after a couple ordered their two-year-old daughter pancakes and then didn't feed them to her, causing her to cry loudly for close to 40 minutes. After repeated attempts to get the get the couple to leave, Neugebauer says she finally slammed her hands on the counter and yelled “this has to stop.” The

child looked at her and promptly stopped crying. So thaaaat's the secret! Despite an angry backlash on social media from people who claim they'll never eat at her restaurant again, the woman is standing by her pancakes, and her actions. “Life's full of choices and you've got to live with all of them”, she said. “I chose to yell at a kid, it made her shut up, which made me happy, it made my staff happy, it made the 75 other people dining here happy, and they left.” One online poll on the topic indicated that 72 per cent said someone should thank her, three per cent said it was totally inappropriate and the remaining 25 per cent said she should have gone about it a different way. I'm siding with the 25 per cent on this one. Without a doubt, the owner handled the situation badly. But, where were the parents in all of this? Who lets their child cry in a restaurant for that length of time and does nothing? Really? Just because a restaurant has a children's menu, crayons, cups with lids and

IN THE GARDEN DROPS OF RAIN AND GARDENING OPPORTUNITIES Little drops of water, little grains of sand make the mighty ocean and the beauteous land. ~ Julia Carney. Bearing in mind the horrific drought conditions that are present throughout this great continent, I assume that no one is complaining about the weather! When our soil is nicely soaked it is the ideal opportunity to transplant the early flowering perennials; the Primula family benefit greatly from division as do the Siberian and German Iris. In the case of German Iris, cut the foliage back to about 8” to prevent them toppling over while they establish a good root system. The Siberians often require a sturdy curved saw to get through the root system; cut pie shaped wedges and discard the centre part which usually is dying off. Primulas are easy separated into smaller clumps and spread along the borders of the bed.

As with all transplants, a totally new location is preferable and a good mix of bone meal along with some compost will give a great start to them; use only a moderate amount of bone meal, too much and the plant will ‘overeat’ and flowers will not arrive. This advice needs to be particularly taken with the veggie patch, over fertilization will generally result in a very poor yield, too much Nitrogen and the result will be magnificent foliage and no flowers or fruit. Last year was a bad one for tomatoes, with widespread blight problems. Many difficulties can be overcome by keeping the plants weed free and by picking up fallen leaves and snapping off affected ones. A solution of 1 teaspoon Epsom Salts to 550 ml water can be sprayed on the plants if the leaves turn yellow and start curling up, this is due to a Magnesium deficiency and is easily corrected. During wet weather there is a good chance that fungi and mould will cause problems; the best prevention is to allow the crops or decorative plants a decent

airflow and weeds should be removed. However, working among the veggies (particularly true with beans) on a wet day will cause any damp related problems to spread. Because of the wet weather the weeds seem to have flourished, so I simply wander around digging up the ones that are in flower first and then working on the less advanced chaps. Day Lilies are coming into their own and need daily attention; the spent blossoms can be easily snapped off, allowing the plant to continue an extended flowering. The spent blooms will often cause the emerging buds to rot, thus robbing the garden of many delights. As you ‘deadhead’ celebrate the abundance that you’ve enjoyed. Blessings. 0038 Betty Kennett, Resident Green Thumb

Brunswick. You might know him by a better name though, Lord Beaverbrook. In 1873 one-thousand men were presumed lost at sea after a terrible storm sweept across the Maritimes. The storm struck hardest in the Gulf of St.Lawrence region and was dubbed “The August Gale”

on February 10, 1923. Some people say that a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. New Brunswicker Hartley A. Wentworth had a belief that chocolate was just the ticket to help kids swallow their fish liver. So, in 1933, he patented his invention. Yuck!

On May 31, 1880 The Moncton’s “Daily Times” reported a: crazy man in the vicinity of High Street roaming about. The man was said to be living in the woods. Perhaps a distant relative of Mikey’s?

New Brunswick Premier, John B. McNair enacted a four percent sales tax in 1950 to help finance education and social service. New Brunswickers across the province protested, and two years later, McNair and his party were voted out of office.

The ‘Marco Polo’, a familiar ship to practically any New Brunswicker, was lost off the cost of PEI during a storm as it crossed from Quebec to London with a load of timber in 1883. It was only 31 years old. The ‘Marco Polo’ earned its title of fastest ship in the world after it travelled from Liverpool, England to Melbourne, Australia in 76 days and then back again in another 76 days.

On July 1951, for the first time in history, the Northumberland Strait was crossed by swimming. Evelyn Henry of Keppoch, PEI, swam from Cape Tormentine and arrived at Borden, PEI nine hours later. Although unconfirmed, it’s possible that someone offered Evelyn chocolate flavoured fish liver and she escaped back to the island before they could repeat the offer.

Until 1891 New Brunswick’s Provincial Government had both a lower chamber, the Legislative Assembly, and an Upper Chamber, the Legislative Council. This Bicameral government more closely resembled the Federal Government with its House of Commons and The Senate, and as with the Senate, members of the Legislative Council were chosen by the Queen’s representative, New Brunswick’s Lieutenant Governor. In retrospect, they were very forward thinking.

Quick, where’s the longest bridge in the world? If you guessed Hartland, give yourself a star. Before it was the longest covered bridge in the world, it spent 20 years as a private toll bridge. No word on whether it was the longest toll bridge in the world.

In 1916 New Brunswick saw the light and began to practice Daylight Savings Time. In 1917 Prohibition began in New Brunswick and lasted for ten years. Jet-setters and go-getters across the planet have a New Brunswicker to thank for getting around the world so quickly. Wallace R. Turnbull, patented the Variable Pitch Propellor in the winter of 1922. The new design lets pilots change the pitch on the propellor to adjust for different load weights and weather conditions.

ASK THE CHEF CAESAR SALAD OR CESAR’S SALAD? Colin Sifton here again from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your question. It seems that all the get-togethers that we go to have a variety of salads. You always see the same salads, and this led us to this week’s topic: salad. So, what is the most popular salad in the world? Around here I would say Caesar salad but in fact it is coleslaw, a simple salad of cabbage, sweet mayonnaise and white vinegar. Some people add shredded carrots or purple cabbage for colour. Other’s add fruit, like apples or raisins, for a change of flavour and texture. The slaw I like the most is a bitter green slaw which is a mix of kale, broccoli, cabbage, endive and brussel sprouts with pumpkin seed and craisins (sun dried cranberries) with a poppy seed dressing. Not only is it a tasty change, but also more healthy. Now as I said, I would think that Caesar

Salad would be the most popular salad around these parts and why not? Now do you know the history of the Caesar Salad? Well, different countries have taken responsibility for this salad but this is the story I believe. First, it was Cesar not Caesar and it was named after a maitre d’hotel on a cruise ship and his name was Cesar. He was Mexican, not Italian or Greek. He started making the salad at the table for his most important customers and in a very short period of time, all the passengers were asking for Cesar’s salad. So if you would like to make your own Caesar Salad dressing, this is how you do it. You need the following: 1 egg yolk, 1/2 teaspoon of crushed garlic, 1/2 oz of red wine vinegar, 1/4 tsp of dijon mustard, 1/2 cup of olive oil, 1 piece of anchovy (yes you need the anchovy) and a lemon. Now you can do this in a bowl or throw it into the blender. It will come out thicker in the blender, so I would suggest doing it that way until you perfect your recipe. Add the egg yolk, dijon, garlic and anchovy together in a bowl and whisk

until they become one. Add vinegar and whisk. Slowly add the oil. If you pour too quickly it will not incorporate and it is not easy to get the proper consistency; not as much of an issue with the blender. Squeeze half a lemon and whisk. You will see your dressing getting whiter. This is from the acid in the lemon juice, it bleaches your dressing making it lighter in colour, but is also a very important ingredient in your dressing. Add your chopped romaine, parmesan cheese, bacon bits and croutons to the same bowl and toss together until all leaves are coated with dressing. You can have some extra cheese, croutons and bacon available to garnish your salad if you want. I mean who doesn’t want extra right? 0040

MONTY & HUGO QUINN

- Is a 5 year old Calico Tabby mix. She showed up at the Sanctuary at the end of June. She has a lovely disposition and definitely a lap cat - she is now used to living with small dogs. She was spayed 2 weeks ago, vaccinated and parasites all taken care of and is ready for a permanent home.

MONTY & HUGO

- Monty is a 12 week old Red Pointed Siamese - one of CoCo’s kittens. Hugo is an 11 week old short-haired gray. He arrived at the Sanctuary at 10 days old and has been bottle-fed. These two are a going concern - nosy and into everything - as all kittens are. They both get along very well with each other and the other felines - paying attention to the social graces of the feline world. These two are also ready for a permanent home.

QUINN

Please contact the Sanctuary if interested in these three wonderful felines via e-mail or visit our website and fill out an application form.

When soils are healthy, economies grow. Soil is the foundation for the global production of food, animal feed, fuel and natural fiber. So the healthier a nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soil is, the more crops they can grow. The better their citizens can eat. The more jobs they can create. And the more competitively they can trade. So you see, the soil nutrients we produce help grow more than just crops. They help grow economies. As a result, they help us nourish human potential. Potashcorp.com/Nourish

MUSINGS TALE OF TWO FISHIES Actually it is a tale of two fish tanks, but somehow that didn’t have the right “feel” to it! Tank # 1: Many years ago when my kids were young, I had a 10 gallon fish tank that housed a beauty of a Betta Fish. If you are not familiar with these fish, they are beautiful little guys with long flowing fins and tails, but they aren’t necessarily very friendly with other fish so they tend to live in solitary splendor in their tanks. They are okay with this and often become quite interactive with their “people”. We had “Mr Fishy” for a number of years, but eventually he died and the fish tank was retired. Fast forward to about 6 years ago when my daughter decided to adopt a couple of goldfish from a friend who was going away to university. This went well for a while, but then life got busy and the fish got neglected so “Nana” (aka me) inherited the goldfish and the tank. So the tank has been on the corner of my kitchen counter and various fish have come and gone over time. But a 10 gallon tank cannot hold very many fish. The question became, do I want to continue to be a fish owner and go bigger or shall I get out of fish entirely? A little research revealed that a big tank is really no more work than a small tank, so then the question becomes, where would it go? A bigger tank simply WOULD NOT fit on the kitchen counter. A period of puzzling and research just how big is bigger anyway? - and I now have a 30 gallon tank and a plan for where it is going. I may take a few weeks to get it all sorted out, but now that I am committed it is exciting to be going ahead. The lovely gentleman I got the tank from was generous in sharing his knowledge and his own set-up was absolutely awesome. The new tank will be more of a focal point in the house and I expect to enjoy watching these lovely creatures for many years to come. Yes, it is a little work (much like having a swimming pool), but the time is an investment that will be paid back in pleasure

over and over again. And my cats will surely enjoy it! “A fish tank is just interactive television for cats.” ~ Oliver Gaspirtz, A Treasury of Pet Humor. 0002 Debbie Hickey President, Ossekeag Publishing
