The Sussex Herald
The Maritime Provinces and the State of Maine are home to what is referred to as the Acadian Forest. It is a mixture of trees from the North (boreal forest) such as fir and white birch, and a more southerly tree mix such as hemlock, white pine and sugar maple. Before European settlement the Acadian Forest was dominated by the southerly trees largely because they are longer lived species and largely tolerant to high levels of shade found in a mature forest land. As our early pioneers began widespread cutting and creating relatively large gaps in the forest canopy, the boreal species gained an advantage and so today many woodlots will contain more fir than red spruce and more white birch than sugar maple or beech. Thus, we have experienced the borealization of the Acadian Forest, dominated by trees that are mostly near the end of their southern range. With the arrival of climate change, here is what we can expect to occur. First, trees that are from the north will likely suffer. We can reasonably expect that fir, spruce, jack pine, poplar (aspen) will likely die off over time and, hopefully, be replaced by more heat loving species. The western US has for several years now experienced wide ranging Sudden Aspen Decline. Recent walks around the woodlot still shows lots of fir regeneration but heat loving red maple is also proliferating throughout the property. Just a note - If your micro-climate is relatively cool, by virtue of being near the Fundy coast or on a high hilltop, the effects of climate change might be
lessened. A five degree temperature rise along the coast will likely be close to the the temperatures currently experienced in downtown Sussex or Fredericton. Along with an environment that is unfriendly to many of our trees, climate change will likely bring an increase of tree insects and disease that has been previously moderated by colder winters. Warmer winters in BC has allowed the Mountain Pine Beetle to destroy over 50% of the commercial volume of lodgepole pine in the province!! THE DANGER - Sustainable management of our forests allows healthy growing trees to absorb and capture carbon from the atmosphere, thereby alleviating the effects of the greenhouse gases that we create every day and thus slowing climate change. Should climate change cause a collapse of a significant portion of our forest, such as it has in BC, these dead trees will decay and further add to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and thereby accelerate climate change. One Canadian expert calculates that the dead lodgepole pine of BC will contribute more greenhouse gases to the atmosphere than all other sources in the province combined.

WELL RESTED TRAVELLING WITH YOUR CPAP
Many clients find using a CPAP machine at home to be challenging, especially at first. The thought of carting their CPAP machine with them on a trip is almost unimaginable. One of the first questions I am asked is, "if I go away, do I have to take my machine with me?" Don't let the idea of taking your CPAP machine with you give you stress. It’s really easy. A good night’s sleep is especially important when travelling, whether for work or leisure. And if you are sharing a room, your roommate or bed partner will not want to listen to snoring all night. Here are some tips for traveling with a CPAP machine: At the airport: Take your CPAP machine on the plane with you. The X-Ray machine will not damage it. It is allowed as a medical device and so does not count against your carry-on limit. Checked luggage can be handled roughly at times and your machine might get damaged. If your luggage gets lost, so will your CPAP. Use a luggage tag on your CPAP bag and you may want to keep a
copy of your prescription or a letter from your provider stating that you require this medical equipment. Power: Newer CPAP machines are able to handle the voltage in any part of the world, but you need to have to proper plug adapter. Check to see what is used in the country you are visiting and buy the proper adapter or buy a universal adapter that can be changed for any country. These can be purchased at luggage store. Take a good quality extension cord with you as well, especially on a cruise. Camping: If you are going camping and will not have access to power, consider buying or renting a CPAP battery. These are small and portable, safe for your CPAP and usually will last at least two nights. They can be recharged during the day as well. Water: Use bottled water while travelling if distilled is not available. When you get home, wash your water chamber out with vinegar and rinse well. In some southern areas, the humidity is high, you may be able to disconnect your humidifier from

your machine and leave it home. Make sure your hose connects directly to air generator though. Extra supplies: It’s a good idea to take an extra mask with you. You never know when something is going to break or get left behind in a hotel room. Travel CPAP: There are now some very small travel CPAP machines available that come with a battery. These are really great little units, I have one myself. You may want to ask a CPAP provider about this and consider having one of these machines right in your suitcase! Don’t let sleep apnea hinder your travel plans. Take your CPAP, sleep well and enjoy yourself! 0038

HAVE YOU SEEN THE CHIMNEY SWIFTS? The familiar sound of this unique little bird can be heard again in the Sussex area, as they fly all day eating bugs and mosquitoes. They use brick chimneys for nesting, and possibly old barns as protection at night. Swifts were first spotted on May 11 and over 200 have been counted using the roost chimney at 119 St. George Street, where official counts were held on May 25 & 29 and will be held on June 2 & 6. Anyone wishing to help with a count is invited to come, arriving by 8:00pm and instructions will be given. Anyone can watch the Chimney Swifts enter the roost chimney any evening. It certainly can be an awesome sight! The best view is from across the street, but
please be respectful of all the residents in the neighborhood. Many of the Chimney Swifts will soon be nesting in other individual chimneys in the area, and these are the sites we are most interested in locating. If there are brick chimneys in your neighborhood, perhaps keep your eye on them and if you notice any bird going into a chimney, we want to know. There is lots of information available to homeowners, who may be chimney swift hosts, so please phone me at 433-4439. I can watch the chimney and talk to the residents about how they can help protect this very special bird. Maritimes Swiftwatch and Nature Sussex urge area residents to become familiar with this threatened species which is a yearly visitor to our area. You can read more on the Swifts at birdscanada.org/ volunteer/acswifts. Submitted by Judy Stockdale-Dow. 4094

ASK THE CHEF EDIBLE FLOWERS Colin Sifton here again from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your question. We had a couple in this week asking about edible flowers. They were thinking of planting some in their garden and wondered which would be good ones to plant. This made me think of a number of ideas. I thought I would share a few. There are so many edible flowers in the world, that it would take less time to list those which are not edible - roses, tulips, nasturtiums and violets, just to name a few. Edible flowers have been used for many years as a way to liven up salads or even cooked in a dish. Most blossoms are edible as they eventually become fruits or vegetables. We use to made a dish by piping salmon mousse into pumpkin blossoms and poaching it. Made for a great presentation but came with a high price. The main way that we see edible flowers is in a salad or as a garnish on
the plate. One of the most expensive edible flowers is saffron. It consists of the stigmas and styles collected from the inside of a type of crocus flower and can fetch up to $15 a gram for good saffron. Most of us do not know what to do with saffron and therefore why pay the price. Knowing from experience, real saffron has such a unique flavour and produces a one of a kind yellow colour that if you took it away from a dish, that dish would always taste incomplete. I was on Vancouver Island at a place called Sook Harbour House. They advertised that 98% of the landscape was edible and they would use these plants and flowers in every dish and decor in the Inn. Quite a unique place and a great idea, but of course they live in a different climate which makes it easier to grow so many different kinds of edibles. If you want to know if a flower is edible, just look it up on the internet
or in a book. It will surprise you how many different kinds you have growing in your backyard already. If you are having a dinner party, pick some violets and add a few pedals to your salad. Your guests will surely be impressed. Remember that just because the petals are edible, all of the flower may not be. It is important to know what part of any plant you can use and what you should be throwing out. Flower gardens are now not only pretty to look at but practical as well. 0040

Q. Are there ways to manage my financial risk? A. Businesses that are successful take the job of
managing risk very seriously. They have a plan to achieve their goals and take actions to try to minimize the risks which could set them back or potentially bankrupt the business. Running a household for an individual is surprisingly similar. Following are some of the strategies used to manage personal risk: • Budget to live within your means. Take on large and long-term obligations cautiously, considering potential “what if” scenarios (we have to move, job changes, relationship breakup, children …) • Long-term budgets to achieve long term goals in housing, child education, retirement or travel. • Proper insurance to guard family health and assets. Is it available in changing situations ( new employer, relationship changes). • Savings and cash reserves available to deal with emergency problems or opportunities. • Prearranged borrowing which is already available to deal with unforeseen financial issues or opportunities. • Manage and improve how you are viewed by lenders by keeping up to date with your credit reports and credit score and the accuracy of the content in them. Setbacks will occur but not every business or individual will be impacted the same. Giving attention to managing risk will give you the best chance of minimizing the damage caused by these setbacks.

STEEVES250 FESTIVAL Move over Kitchener, move over Lunenburg … this July, Moncton celebrates its own German legacy with the Steeves250 Festival. There are an estimated 300,000 Steeves globally who can be traced back a mere 250 years to one couple - Heinrich and Regina Stief. The Stiefs came to North America in 1749. Originally from Munsingen in southwestern Germany, the family lived in Philadelphia before a land grant deal was arranged through a consortium that included the American icon Benjamin Franklin. Stief and other families such as Treitz, Sommer, Lutz and Wortman departed from the American colonies to the new grants on the Petitcodiac in 1766, a few years before the initial influx of Loyalists from Maine to New Brunswick.
In fact, there is no evidence to suggest Stief was motivated by the Loyalist cause. "The aspirations of these original German settlers were more closely aligned with Acadians and other European emigrants who simply wanted to prosper on lands free of external political interference", says Dr. Philip Steeves, author of Heinrich and Regina: The Story of the First Steeves. It's in this spirit that, despite linguistic barriers, the settlers cooperated to secure a future for their offspring. Heinrich and Regina had seven surviving sons - Jacob, John, Christian, Frederick, Henry, Lewis and Matthias - who in turn had large families. They contributed along with Acadians to add a further economic and cultural dimension to this corner of British North America. This July the Steeves Family is hosting a festival that will be second to none. Cousins and friends are coming from far and wide. “To date Festival Passes have been purchased by delegates from 21 different US States, eight different Provinces and three different international countries. What an amazing and unique opportunity for New Brunswick and local tourism as we attract such diversity to the area.” says PR Chair Kerry Rakuson. Come one, come all to this recordbreaking celebration of the original Steeves - Stief family in MonctonHillsborough in July. Visit: Steeves250. ca for more information. 4096

APOHAQUI ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PARTNERS WITH KWRC If we want to protect our natural world, we must learn that we are a part of it, and encourage children to appreciate its wonders! Direct and creative contact with nature allows children autonomy over their own outdoor experiences. It is for these reasons, and more, that the KWRC decided to develop the Habitat in a Box Program. The elementary school component of the Habitat in a Box program is the first of three; Building Habitat (Elementary School), Restoring and Enhancing Habitat (Middle School), and Monitoring Habitat (High School). It is our hope that each component will act as a building block for the next. In this way students will receive exposure to the natural world with a level of detail and complexity appropriate for their age. The KWRC gave a presentation of the Habitat in a Box to Mrs. Carr’s grade 4 class on April 27 in Apohaqui. The students learned about ecosystems and biodiversity, what habitats are and why they are important, and how they can provide habitat for local species. The children were given tools and materials
so that small groups could work together to build a nesting box for songbirds. Then the kids were taken outside and given the opportunity to choose a good location for their birdhouse on school property. This activity will serve as an ongoing learning tool for students, as they will be able to monitor the bird houses in the future to see what is using it and when. The students will also be building a bee box, which will be installed off campus, due to bee allergies. Pollinators were discussed and students had the opportunity to acknowledge and understand their importance. One in every three bites of food is made possible due to the process of pollination and thus without pollinators, we would have much less variety in our diets and would find growing our gardens much more difficult if not impossible. This program recognizes that in order to grow into responsible environmental stewards, the student needs a solid foundation in understanding basic ecological principles, as well as the importance of biodiversity as it relates to the

Each year, Dairy Month reminds us of the importance of milk to a healthy diet. Eating Well with Canada’s Food Guide recommends youth and teens, ages 9 to 18, consume 3-4 servings
of dairy products per day; adults from age 19 to 50 have two servings per day; and older adults (51+) a minimum of three servings per day.
There’s still time for summer wine

SEXUAL VIOLENCE KNOW HOW TO HELP
Coordinator at 433-6579. (Information adapted from: gnb.ca/saam). 0047
It’s not easy to know what to say when someone tells you they’ve been sexually assaulted. Consider the following ways of showing support: Listen without judgment. A survivor fears they will not be believed, or that their experience will not be seen as important. Let them know you believe them. Let them know that it was the assailant’s fault - not theirs! Be patient. Let them tell their story at their own speed and in their own way. Allow them to decide when they are ready to engage in activities. Support their decisions. A survivor needs to regain control. If they seek medical assistance or plan to report, offer to go with them. Offer resources. Help them find services such as a sexual assault centre, domestic violence services or crisis lines, which can provide them with the information they need to deal with medical, legal and emotional issues related to the assault. Provide security and companionship. Help the survivor feel safe, whether they need to change locks, have security features installed or even move. Realize your own limitations. Take time out when you need it. Recognize when you have reached the limits of your abilities. Help the survivor create a network of support and referrals. Like the survivor, you may also need a supportive listener (this should not be the survivor) to help you express your feelings and reactions. If you suspect you have been abused or assaulted, or if you just need to talk, call the Domestic Violence Outreach

IN THE GARDEN RENEWAL, PEACE & PLEASURE “How fair is a garden amid the toils and passions of existence”. ~Benjamin Disraeli. He certainly had a point! We are inclined to think that a garden should be a thing of perfection when in fact it should, primarily, be a source of renewal, peace and pleasure; at this time of year, when the sales of mulch seem to appear in every community, we are encouraged to think that perfection in a work free garden can easily be obtained by dumping loads of cedar mulch, thickly around every plant in the garden and then sit back and watch! How dull and how dangerous! On pathways mulch will certainly deter the growth of weeds and, if spread when the soil is very moist will help to retain moisture; however, around the plants and bushes it is far more likely to gobble up all the goodness in the soil, eventually leading to puny plantings. It provides a ritzy environment for ants, earwigs and the like to procreate like mad and stronger weeds will continue to flourish.
That being said! It is possible to use it with advantage, particularly in places that tend to dry out quickly, by applying it after a good soaking of rain; there needs to be a good six inches of bare ground around each plant which will then be dressed with a mixture of good black earth, compost and well rotted manure (the bagged type is fine). Once this is done, a wary eye needs to be on the lookout for pests that nest in the mulch and quick dispatch systems activated. The spring garden is truly a beautiful, inspiring and fulfilling sight; in order to keep the garden fresh and appealing it’s important to cut the flower stems of the spring bulbs as close to the ground as possible once they have finished blooming; the leaves need to stay on the plant since they nourish the bulb. Small weeds are germinating all over the ground and a quick raking or scrubbing around with a fork will expose their roots to the sun and with any luck, will put an
end to them; leave them for a week and they will have to be individually dug out! The lilacs are now blooming and filling the air with fragrance, to ensure the best possible performance next year, those blossoms should be cut off just as soon as the bloom has faded and the oldest branches removed at ground level; lilac send out a great many new shoots and these should be selectively cut out, too many and they will rot due to overcrowding. Remember, perfection is NOT a requirement, ENJOYMENT is the goal! Blessings. 0045

LISTEN IN LET YOUR SONGS SOAR Every songwriter and performer needs a place to showcase his or her songs in front of an audience. It’s a great way to learn your performance chops, tell a good story, and maybe get over stage fright; as well as using it as a springboard in qualifying your craft in front of an audience of music patrons and fellow songwriters. O’Leary’s Pub in the city is a prime example of a popular and long standing “Open Mic” (Wednesdays) that has been steered by Brent Mason, one of the best songwriters in the city. I heard about an “Open Mic” happening at Connections Bistro at the Saint John Airport every Friday. Yes the airport! I thought that was a unique and unlikely venue and I was curious how it all got started. “The owner was looking for a way to boost sales during non-peak periods. He spoke to Brent Mason about hosting an open mic. Brent suggested Aaron Gunn who was too busy, so he suggested me. I was uncertain at first until it was
mentioned that it would be open to all ages, at that point I was committed,” Denise Foglein tells me, who is also at the helm of this new weekly event. “We only have three weeks under our belt. The opening night was not too bad, we had about six performers including myself and my daughter Dani (co-host). Week two was a little slow with only three performers and a few locals. Week three was again a decent turn-out with about six performers and about 30 listeners. Our target audience is not the travellers, but the local residents in Saint John and surrounding area. The travellers certainly stop by to listen but are typically just there during their wait.” Denise went on to tell me when asked about its initial interest from perspective performers, patrons and the weary travellers who may just stop in to listen before their flight. “If all goes well it will continue indefinitely” Denise goes on to say when I ask her how long will it run. “Our main
focus for differentiation is that it's an opportunity for performers of all ages to participate.” This is great opportunity especially for all you young singer/ songwriters to get out there. Gather up some friends and family and come on down to “Open Mic”. Details – every Friday (as long as we support it) from 9:00pm-midnight. It’s all ages! Free parking! There is a Facebook Group here as well ConnectionsOpenMic. Or you can contact Denise about getting involved: foglein@hotmail.com. Kudos to Connections Bistro and Denise & Dani Foglein for doing this. Support local! 0041

MICKEY:
Arrived at our Sanctuary in January 2014. He’s a lovely 2 1/2 year old medium-hair, black and white tuxedo cat with a plumed tail and the longest whiskers ever. Very regal looking with a great personality, a mutterer and one who loves his ‘creature comforts’. His coat is silky, shiny and does not ‘mat’. He loves to be brushed however. He has been neutered, vaccinated and treated for all parasites. He does enjoy the outdoors during the day, but does not go far and is always in at night and comes when summoned.

BURSERIES AVAILABLE
We want to share some information with regard to the upcoming HST increase. On July 1, 2016 the HST rate will increase from 13% to 15% in New Brunswick and the taxes payable on funerals will rise with it. While we are not yet aware of the government’s transitional rules for the tax increase we are anticipating that, as with past increases, funeral services preplanned and prefunded between now and July 1, 2016 will not be subject to the higher rate of tax, regardless of when they are carried out. As we are strong advocates for preplanned funerals we have decided to extend a special offer. For those who arrange a preplanned, prefunded funeral with us, and finalize a qualified funding plan, between now and June 30, 2016, we will guarantee protection against the tax increase even if the government doesn’t provide that protection. So, if you’re thinking about preplanning funeral services and want to learn more about its many benefits including how you might avoid a tax increase, please give us a call.
This is an joint program sponsored by the Integrated Arts Program, Plymouth State University, Plymouth New Hampshire and the Government of New Brunswick

SMS MAKING A DIFFERENCE Danny Leger was just 9 years old when he was hit by a vehicle and killed while riding his bike on July of 2002. His younger sister, Jessica, died in a house fire in September of 2003. She was only 7 years old. Judy Leger founded the Danny and Jessica Angel Foundation in 2004 in memory of her grandchildren. This is a non-profit organization established for the purpose of helping needy children and their families from Belleisle Creek to Moncton. The foundation also provides for breakfast programs in 13 schools, Sussex Middle School being one of them. The foundation gave SMS $600 before Christmas, and another $600 after Christmas. The Sussex Middle School Student Leadership Team is all about empathy, compassion, dedication, determination,
and teamwork. Our motto is “Never underestimate the huge difference small acts of kindness can make.” Before Christmas, we presented Judy Leger with a cheque of $1732 for the foundation. On May 4, Judy returned to the school to accept a cheque of $2115. Mrs. Leger was extremely touched and appreciative of the $3847 raised for the Danny & Jessica Angel Foundation this school year. During our cheque presentation on May 4, ten leaders were recognized, and awarded “Danny & Jessica Spirit Award” medals for their outstanding contributions to our successful campaign. Among the recipients was Tyler Dickinson, a grade 10 SRHS student, and former SMS Student Leader of the Year. Tyler never misses an opportunity to help out and share his knowledge of the foundation
he is so passionate about. One of our exemplary grade 8 students and valuable members of the Student Leadership Team is Noah Gibbons Salib. He made and sold paracord bracelets during our campaign, adding $106 to our final total. SMS would like to extend a very special thank you to Sobey’s staff and customers for supporting our fundraising efforts. Your kindness and generosity have been greatly appreciated. Bridget Ryan, our Community School Coordinator, also played a key role in our success. Mrs. Ryan is our liaison with the community, and makes sure that we have everything we need to succeed in whatever project we take on.

SMS CAMPAIGNS FOR C.A.R.M.A. Cover photo story for May 17 issue, article was missed. The idea for a campaign for CARMA, which stands for “Cat Rescue Maritimes,” started when my friend, Kiley Mercer, and I had to do academic and personal goals for French class. For our personal goal, we wanted to raise money for a good cause, but we weren’t sure yet what we wanted to fundraise for. After talking together about some different causes, we decided that we wanted to fundraise for animals. After discussing with our French
teacher, Jeanne LeBlanc, who then talked with our community schools coordinator, Bridget Ryan, we decided to fundraise for CARMA, which is a local cat rescue that has chapters throughout the Maritimes. CARMA uses a process called TNR; Trap, Neuter, and Return, to reduce the amount of feral cats. After they are humanely caught, then spayed or neutered, feral cats are returned to where they were found to live out their lives in a controlled environment with food, water and shelter provided for them. Since feral

cats, which are cats that were born into the wild or who have not had interaction with humans for a very long time, cannot be adopted because of their wariness towards humans, this process allows them to enjoy the rest of their lives without adding to the population of feral cats. Stray cats who are able to be rehomed are fostered until they are adopted. CARMA is ran by five volunteers; Angel Richards, Dianne Hornbrook, Janet Diebal, Robin Dunfield and Terri Peck, as well as many foster families who care for the cats. With help from the Student Leadership Team, we raised $1000. That money was earned from a spirit day at our school, grocery packing at Sobey’s, and $1 raffle tickets that we sold on a painting painted by grade 8 student leader Kaedy Baird. On April 29, we presented the cheque to two of the five volunteers from CARMA, Angel and Terri; after they did a presentation for our leadership team about the organization. Throughout this campaign, Kiley, myself, and the leadership team learned a lot about feral and stray cats, as well as how fast the population of cats can grow if you don’t spay or neuter your pet!

MUSINGS ONE AND TWO AND THREE I had great plans for the May long weekend, most of which involved gardening. I don’t have a huge garden area to maintain, but it is largely on a slope right next to our driveway. Our gravel driveway. Our gravel driveway which is cleared during the winter with a snowblower. So where do you think all that gravel ends up? Of course . . . all in my flower garden. Which means every Spring I spend hours picking out the gravel and tossing it back on the driveway. I had managed to get this under control by mid-May so the fun parts of gardening were about to begin. Bring on the long weekend! Unfortunately the best laid plans . . . On the previous weekend I developed a painful left thumb. As the weekend progressed the end of the thumb became more and more painful and began to swell and redden. So on Monday I rushed home from work to start spam calling to get an appointment with the KV after hours clinic. Success! Off I go, have it confirmed there is infection going on and come home with a prescription for antibiotics and a prognosis that I should see some improvement within 24 hours.
(That’s ONE.) After 36 hours and not only no improvement but actually seeing the infection continue to spread down the thumb, it was obvious the current course of treatment wasn’t going to do the trick. Plus when I showered there was a red line running from the thumb and up the forearm. This time it was off to the Sussex ER on Wednesday afternoon. Yep, it was spreading alright and required more drastic action. First a round of IV antibiotics, then, oh, oh, it needed to be lanced. When I cautiously asked about freezing, it was a no go. My next question was “What is going to keep my hand from flinching away when you stick in that big needle?” The reply: “You are”. Oh really!!! Then another oral antibiotic to take home with instructions to return in the morning for another round of of IV antibiotics. (That’s TWO.) Bright and early the next morning, back to Sussex ER. Upon examination everything looked to be going in the right direction. The red streaks were fading away, the soreness in the forearm had diminished and the big ugly mess
of my thumb was less swollen. Switch antibiotics again and off I go. (That’s THREE.) So, from someone who might see a doctor once every couple of years for routine maintenance, I went to seeing three doctors in four days. Frightening to think that without modern antibiotics that could have been the end of me. All because of some minor abrasion to my thumb (likely from picking gravel out of my garden) which let in some bacteria that for some reason got a foothold before my immune system was able to zap it. And since it is still a painful mess and largely unusable (although I have learned to tie my sneakers without a left thumb!) no gardening for me on the May long weekend. I am sure the weeds are happy! 0001
