The provincial election is now history, and of course everyone has their own personal observations as to what was significant, so not to be left out, here are some of my thoughts. In what was built up to be an extremely important election about the future of the province, voter turnout declined from over 69% in 2010 down to about 65% for this election. Why are we losing the battle of engaging voters? It is my personal belief that more and more voters are not real happy with our two “old” parties. I believe this is borne out by the higher number of voters selecting one of the non-traditional parties in this election. But I do wonder if there are also many more potential voters that are inclined to vote for one of the non-traditional parties but think “No, I’m just wasting my vote, nothing will change”. If we had a form of proportional representation that truly reflects how the citizens of New Brunswick really voted, here is what we might have. A Liberal minority government, with 5 or 6 NDP, 3 Green and 1 People’s Alliance member sitting in opposition along with about 16 Conservatives. Just imagine a New Brunswick government that could not make backroom deals

of any nature because they would have to rely on the support of one or more “other” parties. No longer could a single individual (premier) have the power to force through any legislation or deal that they find convenient. For many years now, NB premiers have exercised total control over the party’s elected MLAs, but with minority governments becoming routine their powers would be severely limited, as they properly should!! Unless we give a political party a true majority on election day, I feel certain that we would be far more likely to get the kind of government we are looking for, more consultative, more open and transparent, and more open to new ideas. Unfortunately, it is not in the best interest of the traditional parties to really do anything about the status quo. So it will be up to all of us who want serious reform of our electoral process by allowing virtually every single vote to actually count, to do something about it. 0001

MEMORY CAFE IN HAMPTON

From the Archives Kings County Museum THE LAST RED ENSIGN The Canadian Red Ensign was popularized by Sir John A. Macdonald who flew it as early as 1868, one year after Confederation. It wasn’t Canada’s official flag until 1946, before that the Royal Union Flag was the official Flag

of Canada, though it was the Canadian Red Ensign that was flown above government buildings. It was replaced in 1965 by our current Maple Leaf flag. Some still fly the Canadian Red Ensign alongside their Maple Leaf flags. 0008

Support for a memory cafe in Hampton is being sought by local residents. People affected by Alzheimer disease and their families & caregivers can join together once a month in a safe, familiar environment to get out and enjoy some company. Recently a trial memory cafe was held at the Hampton Legion. Everyone who attended was treated to refreshments, entertainment and fellowship. A short presentation was given on Alzheimers and dementia. Having a monthly memory cafe in Hampton would be of great benefit to those suffering from Alzheimers, their families and caregivers. It is an excellent way to break up the monotony of a daily routine and have some enjoyment with people who are going through similar things. If you or someone you know are interested in attending a monthly memory cafe in Hampton please contact: saintjohn@ alzheimernb.ca. They are currently in the planning stages of a memory cafe and are looking for interest and support. 3152

FRESH WITH FOOD TURKEY TALK As a retailer, I have conformed in almost every way to the turkey tradition. In Canada, 3.1 million whole turkeys are sold at Thanksgiving and we are certainly part of that number. However, perhaps the tradition that supposedly started in 1621 is a little bit outdated. Originally, turkey was only a small part of a meal that included other fowl, seafood, vegetables and fruits. Turkey only became popular after 1800. The truth is, we're not eating the same turkey that the Pilgrims hunted, or our ancestors ate a few generations ago. For the large part, we eat artificially bred broad breasted white turkeys that have such poor genetics that they can drop dead of heart problems at any point. A local turkey farmer always tells me, "they drop dead if you look at them wrong." The world is a different place than it was even a century ago. Raising enough turkey to fill everyone's plates in 1900 is a much different process than raising the millions of turkeys we expect in 2014. A century ago, turkeys were all raised outdoors and ate unprocessed plant material and bugs. Today, most of our turkeys are raised inside massive barns, never see the light of day and survive on a diet of processed feed with animal by-products, as well as medications to artificially support their immune system so they can stay alive in an environment that would normally kill any living being. In an attempt to make a better situation out of Kredl's turkey sales conformity,

I convinced a local turkey farmer to revert to his methods from decades ago to produce a flock of pasture-raised turkeys fed non-medicated feed. It was a huge success last year and although I ordered way too many, we ended up grinding them and creating a huge demand for ground turkey, which we sold out of in March. However, it would be a huge undertaking to raise millions of turkeys in this way, so why don't we update our traditions? The cornucopia of vegetables we have now in New Brunswick are not available FRESH year-round. For me, a holiday in this season is just an excuse to indulge in the most delicious New Brunswick produce. I am an omnivore and I love meat, but I don't see why a selection of meat has to be the centerpiece of a fine meal. Why can't it revolve around the vegetables? One of my absolute favourite autumn dishes is to simply roast vegetables with olive oil, sea salt, fresh-ground pepper and cayenne pepper. My favourite things to roast are carrots, parsnips, butternut squash, garlic, Brussels sprouts, onions and sweet potatoes. They are delicious, filling and colourful. So this Thanksgiving, consider a meal with only New Brunswick produce. If you want turkey, ham or another hunk of meat, make it a side. Honour the vegetables first, then the meat. 0039

etty Hitchcock, of Saint John, is one of the busiest volunteers in the province. Since 2002, she has supported hundreds of women with a breast cancer diagnosis through peer support programs provided by the CanadianCancer Society. Currently, she volunteers with Cancer Connection, a national, telephone-based peer support program that pairs newly diagnosed patients with people who have experienced cancer. Betty was diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer in 1998. Treatments were aggressive - six months of chemo, followed by 25 rounds of radiation and a mastectomy – but

Betty went through it with courage and grace. “I just kept thinking if the treatment is making me feel this miserable, imagine what it must be doing to those cancer cells.”

Betty’s personal cancer journey has given comfort and hope to many women over the years, and she has inspired many others to become peer support volunteers. She continues to be an important link between health-care professionals and the breast cancer community. Through CancerConnection, patients can be matched with someone who had a similar cancer experience. Caregivers are also encouraged to access the program for emotional support and information that will help them care for their loved ones. For more information, please contact 1 888 939-3333.

Your good health includes a good night’s sleep.

Betty’s personal cancer journey has given comfort and hope to many women over the years, and she has inspired many others to become peer support volunteers.

The facts: • In New Brunswick, an estimated 560 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and approximately 110 will die from the disease this year. • An estimated 24,400 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in Canada in 2014. An estimated 5,000 women will die from the disease. • A woman has a 1 in 9 chance of developing breast cancer in her lifetime and 1 in 29 women will die of it. • The death rate for breast cancer for Canadian women has fallen over 40% since the mid-1980s. • Breast cancer is the most common cancer among Canadian women. • Breast cancer occurs primarily in women 50 and over. CancerConnection is not the only

resource available through the Canadian Cancer Society, which works across Canada to ensure that no one is alone in the fight against cancer by supporting breast cancer research, educating women about early detection and providing information and support to women living with breast cancer, their families and their caregivers. The Canadian Cancer Society dedicated $5.5 million in 2012–2013 to fund a broad range of breast cancer research projects across Canada, including: • A study of how lifestyle factors can affect the biology of the breast with the aim of helping to develop strategies to help women reduce their risk of the disease.

1 in 9 Women in Canada is expected to develop breast cancer during her lifetime (by the age of 90) For comprehensive information on breast cancer and to find the support programs to match your needs visit cancer.ca, call 1-888939-3333 (TTY 1-866-786-3934) or email info@cis.cancer.ca.

POINT OF VIEW AUCTION FEVER What I witness each and every year, as we prepare for the province's longest running fund raising auction, can only be described as a well oiled machine. Despite all the hard work that goes into planning and executing the Belleisle Home & School Harvest Auction, everyone works well together and things run pretty smoothly. If you haven't already done so, mark Saturday, October 18 on your calendar. This is the day we celebrate 44 years of coming together for the benefit of our students. And, based on past experience, come together we will. Planning for the auction kicks into high gear the moment classes resume in September, and doesn't stop until the doors open on auction day. I'm sure whoever started the auction all those years ago had no idea that it would stand the test of time. Instead of losing momentum, it's grown and evolved into an important fundraiser that has allowed the Belleisle Home & School Association

to purchase many educational tools for students at both Belleisle schools. Last year's auction broke its all time fundraising record, raising $24,500. With your support, I have no doubt we can meet or beat that total this year. The auction is held at Belleisle Regional High School, which is located at 1800 Route 124 in Springfield. The doors open at 8:30am and auction bidding will get underway at 10:00am. Kevin Bond will serve as auctioneer. Words can't express how much we appreciate what Kevin does for us. His dad, Russell, was auctioneer for the first several years – a tradition that's continued with Kevin. It's not uncommon for him to put in 12 hour days on our auction stage and I'm sure people go just to hear him say “so what have you got here?” In addition to the live auction bidding, people can also bid on a wide variety of silent auction items generously donated by businesses. The Belleisle Boutique is another popular draw for visitors. There, you'll find everything from clothing and

by diane mcmillan toys to books and footwear. There are also 50/50 draws held throughout the auction, a raffle ticket table, bake sale, canteen facilities and pizza, brown bread, beans, chili and homemade desserts for sale in the cafeteria. Donations of furniture (with the exception of sofas), household items in good working order, clothing and linens will be accepted at the high school from October 13-16. I'm one of several auction committee members who are canvassing businesses for donations again this year. If you would like to promote your business by donating an item for bidding, please feel free to contact me. My email is diane@ ossekeag.ca. 0032

IN THE GARDEN by Betty Kennett HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL... The major hope in the minds of most gardeners is that of abundant rainfall, and that’s probably true also for most people who depend on well water for their daily needs; the dry weather has virtually put a stop to conventional gardening since the ground is rock hard, digging has become a chore solely for the stout hearted and determined. Bearing in mind the fond hope printed above there are a few things that we can do while we wait for the longed for precipitation. First on my ‘to do’ list is to spend some joyful time in the garden centres that provide a good sampling of spring bulbs and there’s no time like the present to select these beauties even though the actual planting will need to be delayed until the heavens open with the gift of rain. There are plenty of pre-packaged selections available however the greatest fun is to be had in the establishments that

sell loose bulbs; these usually are displayed in boxes that show a photograph of the bulb along with information regarding height and the best location with respect to sun or shade. The early bird certainly catches the worm in this situation since many of these loose bulbs are whoppers, often with three or four segments, each of which will produce a bloom and the wise shopper can fish around in the box to find the best deal. We are all aware by now that the huge deer population have Tulips on the top of the list for gourmet dining and unless you have a fenced in yard you may just as well bypass these beauties... however there is a great selection in the daffodil family that are usually totally deer proof, the colours range from white, through all shades of yellow and orange (and even pink if you have the stomach for it), they come in heights ranging from miniature to eighteen inches and when planted in clumps of the same type/colour, create a sensational feature. There are of course many other bulbs that are fun to grow,

sadly most are readily eaten by the pesky white tails and need protection; all bulbs need to be planted in a hole that is three times as deep as the size of the bulb, preferably with a sprinkle of bone meal in well turned over soil that has been amended with compost and well rotted manure. As the leaves begin to fall and before the accumulation is knee deep, it’s a good practice to lift the blade on the mower to at least three inches and sweep around the lawns, the resulting chopped up leaves that get mixed up with the grass clippings are great fertilizer for the lawn and, joy of joys, the process allows you to pass up on that tiresome job of raking! Keep up with the rain dances and prayers! Betty Kennett, Blessings. 0038 Resident Green Thumb

FIRE Prevention

On October 11, 2014 the Sussex Fire Department will be hosting a Fire Prevention Open House from 10AM to 1 PM at 22-1 Maple Avenue in Sussex, NB. We will have the Fire Safety House on hand as well as Sparky! Come meet the Firefighters, see their equipment and get some cool fire prevention gifts! It’s always a great time! It is open to all children and their families and we hope to see lots of people attend!

“Working smoke alarms save lives test yours every month!” Do you know why Fire Prevention Week is early October every year?

The Great Chicago Fire of 1871 lasted two days – October 8th and 9th – and killed more than 250 people, left 100,000 homeless and burned more than 2,000 acres. That fire forever changed the way that public officials viewed fire safety. To mark the 40th anniversary of this tragic event, the Fire Marshals Association of North America deemed that the most appropriate commemoration was to do everything they could to educate and inform the public about the importance of fire safety

and prevention. Since 1922, Fire Prevention Week has been observed every Sunday through Saturday of the week that October 9th falls on. Have you evaluated your home recently for fire safety?

• When is the last time you’ve checked your smoke alarms? • Is there a smoke alarm on every floor and in every bedroom? • Is there a fire extinguisher in the kitchen? • Is it charged and ready?

Does everyone in your home know your fire escape plan: Where to meet, and at least two

ways out of the house from where they sleep?

The batteries should be changed at least once a year.

Do you know these fire prevention facts?

Ionization smoke alarms respond quickest to flaming fires. Photoelectric alarms will respond quicker to smouldering smoky fires. It’s best to have both types installed in your home.

Smoke Alarms work best when placed on the ceiling near the center of a room or the top of a staircase. (Keep them at least two feet from light fixtures) Smoke Alarms should be located on every level of your house and in every bedroom. Rechargeable fire extinguishers need to be recharged by a professional after every use, even if you used just a squirt, the pressure inside will slowly leak out. Small disposable fire extinguishers are a one-time use item and should be replaced once they’ve been used and the pressure seal has been broken. Smoke Alarms should be tested monthly and should be replaced every ten years.

If your house is filling up with smoke it’s best to crawl on your hands and knees to safety. The freshest air will be near the floor. Most fire victims die from smoke or toxic gases and not from actual burns. You should hold your hand close to the doorknob to feel for heat before opening any doors during a fire. Your evacuation plan should be under three minutes and well-practiced. Children are shown to panic less when your fire evacuation plan is well practiced. Homes used to be equipped with

“Fire Bombs” or “Fire Grenades”. They were glass balls filled with salt water or chemicals and were designed to be thrown at fires and douse the flames upon impact. “With files from Fire Prevention Canada”

FAMILY MATTERS by anita hofmann FAMILY TIME IN BUSY TIMES Four tips for families on the go: First the good news. We live in a community rich in resources that benefit our children and promote health and wellness. The bad news is that we can become overwhelmed with taking our children from activity to activity. If you have more than one child you might find that you are never at home. For many busy parents, finding quality time to be with their kids can be a big challenge. Here are 4 things you can do to ensure you get your week’s worth of family time: 1. Set a ‘No Drive Zone’. This would be the equivalent to scheduling a day or night aside for just the family, where no driving or rushing around is allowed. Each week a different family member can choose the activity, making the no drive zone something children will remember. Telling others about your

family’s no drive zone can also avoid outside distractions. 2. Visible Family Calendar. Make sure everyone in the family can see the family activity calendar and that family time is consistently set each week. Having a visual calendar keeps everyone accountable to that day and reduces the chances of scheduling surprises. Assigning a different family ‘event coordinator’ each week can prevent family time from becoming boring and members will look forward to family time each week. 3. Organize Family Time Around What You Already Do. Often the easiest way to organize family time for real busy families is by incorporating it into an activity the family is already doing. Mealtimes are a great way to get your family time in and make every moment count. There is usually something to stir, spread, set, shake and clean up. Share the work and enlist the help of the whole family – even the littlest ones. 4. Have a Plan B. B is for backup.

Even the best laid plans can fall victim to some unexpected event. In cases such as these have a back-up plan for family time. Perhaps it could be Sunday breakfast party, bedtime reading night, week debriefing over hot chocolate, or a fun family game of question and answer. With the beginning of a new school year comes the beginning of a new family schedule. Managing the multiple demands of family life can be a challenge and family time can get lost in the shuffle. The good news is that despite a hectic family schedule, family time can be a memorable date that has a permanent slot on the weekly calendar. 0006

TAMMY THE TURKEY I'm not much of a country lass. I live over on the Peninsula, not by choice, but because my parents moved when all their kids were supposed to be out on their own. I was just a little late leaving. I'm home for the summer, working at a call center until I return to Ontario for school in the fall. My mother owns chickens. I'm not much of a bird lover, but chickens are quite funny to watch while they roam around the yard. The other morning, I woke up to a phone call from my mom asking if the door to the chicken coop was closed. I looked out my window and confirmed that it was. She then explained, that the neighbor had emailed wondering if one of our chickens was in her yard. I couldn't wrap my brain around how one of our chickens managed to jump the fence and run across the empty lot next door to the house just on the other side. Our chickens have never left our yard. With my phone pressed up against my ear I walked down to check on the birds. The neighbor was concerned that one of

our roosters that had flown the coop. Confused as to what bird it could've been because both roosters were in their pen. I figured it must of been one of our really fat hens. I trampled across the empty lot still talking to my mother on the phone, walked down to the neighbour’s back door expecting to lure one of the silly hens back home. To my surprise it was not a hen nor a rooster, it was a turkey! A huge wild turkey! I said "Mom, there is a bird here, but it's not one of ours." Mom replied "well....what is it?!" "A turkey!" I exclaimed. Mom being the bird lover she is, was really excited and asked me to take pictures. The turkey didn't seem frightened. It stood at the window peeping into the house. It was a female, hence the name Tammy the turkey instead of Tom. I stood taking pictures when suddenly the big bird started walking towards me. Birds make me nervous in general and so without hesitation I took off running. Left my poor neighbour in the

dust to fend for herself. Just a follow up – there have been several sightings of Miss Tammy by others on the Peninsula! She has eluded capture as far as I know. Submitted by Sarah Robertson. 3113

ASK THE CHEF by Colin sifton HOW DO YOU DRESS YOUR SALAD? Colin Sifton here again with an answer to your question. Today people are trying to be more healthy with what they put in their bodies but at the same time buy items that are easily made with more natural products. One of these things is salad dressing. It is one thing to eat a salad, it is another to drown it in store bought salad dressing filled with preservatives. Here at Holly’s we try and make our own dressings, where applicable, to give a more unique flavour to a dish. One in particular is the salmon and salad. Salad dressing was once broken into two different categories - oil dressings and creamy dressings. One misconception is that one is oil based and the other cream. In fact both are oil based dressings, as they both contain mainly oil. The difference is the creamy dressing is emulsified with egg yolk and mustard.

Oil based dressings are mainly oil and vinegar. With these two main ingredients we then add our flavour; which can come from a few different places. Sometimes it comes from the flavour of vinegar we use. You can use white vinegar to make a sharp dressing, but it often needs to be cut with some sugar or honey because it is so strong. Using red wine vinegar is a more mild flavour and adds colour to your dressing. A popular vinegar these days is balsamic, which is sweeter but more robust. The other flavours comes from onion, garlic, herbs and spices we add to make the dressing unique and to bring out flavours in the dish we are trying to create. Creamy dressings starts with an egg yolk and a small amount of mustard. Dijon is definitely the best to use here. Add your vinegar of choice and start adding your oil slowly. This emulsifies it together and creates a creamy appearance. Squeeze in some lemon juice and a little salt and white pepper and you have created mayonnaise. This is the base for all

creamy dressings. To change it into caesar dressing we would add anchovies and garlic which gives it that famous flavour. With this mayonnaise base we can create hundreds of our own salad dressings. These days, with everyone trying to be more healthy, we have started creating dressing from yogurt base and adding our own flavours. For example, I make a great spinach salad dressing by adding orange concentrate to plain yogurt with honey, paprika garlic and poppy seeds. This is just one of many ways we can use our imagination and the foods we like to make something different and unique, healthy and low fat, to our diets. 0040

You wake up, get dressed, and go about your normal “getting ready for work routine”.

Then you think to call your road service provider (tow truck company) who tells you “that due to high volume your call will be handled by the next available agent.....” You sigh, slump in your seat then say to yourself, “maybe I can figure this out myself!” You pull the hood lever, get out, lift up the hood, and begin to look around. “This looks nothing like grandfather’s old car that we used to work on. I can’t see the battery or find the distributor.” you say to yourself. With the phone still to your ear you hear a cheerful voice, “Hello this is Jane/John Doe. How can I help you today?” You explain to them that your car won’t start and after answering all their questions they tell you that they’ve had numerous

before winter starts and here are some you can do yourself. However, I do recommend that you have a professional check your car over: Check your fluid levels. Coolant - should be clear and not cloudy. Either orange, red, or green; but clear. Different colours designate different types of engine coolant. If the coolant is cloudy, it could be an indication that there may be a problem which needs to be attended to. Make sure you check your coolant’s freezing point as well. It should be -40 degrees Celsius. You can test this with a tester that can be obtained from any automotive store. Windshield wiper fluid - make sure it’s rated for at least -40 degrees Celsius. We get cold here in NB and there are different

types of windshield fluids. If you aren’t sure which one to get, consult a professional. Load test your battery. To test for this you would need a load testing meter. Now, batteries are not located under the hood of all vehicles. If that is your case, consult your owners manual or your local professional. Check your tire condition and traction rating. Make sure they are rated for snow and ice. We get a lot of both here, so your tires need to be able to handle it. A lot of modern cars have tire pressure monitoring systems that tell you there is a problem, but you still need to go to each individual tire and check its pressure. You will need to get the manufacturer’s rating, which is normally located on the inside driver’s door, but again, I recommend consulting a professional, as some tires are rated differently than the manufacturer of the vehicle originally recommended.

The best emergency kits aren’t the ones that help you cope with an emergency - they’re the ones that get you out of an emergency and back on the road.

Winter is just around the corner! Now is the time to get your vehicle ready for the cold days ahead. All makes & models welcomed.

Fall Care Care Checklist • Good Brakes • Emergency Kit • Tire Pressure Gauge • Snow Brush / Scraper • Adequate Tire Depth • Fluid Levels Topped Up • Extra Fluids Winter Essentials Make Good Sense When Close & Far From Home

3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISER Financial advisers play a significant role in helping you manage your financial future so it is important to make an informed choice of who you will work with. Despite the importance of the decision, only 1-in-3 New Brunswick investors have checked the background of their financial adviser. Protect yourself by asking your adviser these 3 questions before you invest: 1) Are you registered with FCNB? In order to be in the business of giving you investment advice or buying and selling investments on your behalf, advisers and the firms they work for must be registered with FCNB. Registration helps protect investors by confirming that firms and individuals meet established standards. Visit FCNB.ca to make sure your adviser is registered with us. 2) How are you paid for your services? Not all advisers are paid for their services in the same way. Advisers may receive a commission for every product they sell, charge a flat fee based on an hourly rate or the amount of assets you have invested with them, or be paid a

salary. Ask your adviser how they are paid, how much their services will cost, how these fees will affect your returns, and what types of services you will receive. 3) Who are your typical clients? You may be more comfortable and successful working with an adviser who has experience working with clients who are a lot like you in terms of financial background, goals, and

LISTEN IN by Jeﬀ liberty FOG LIT FESTIVAL BLEW INTO TOWN Oct 1-5 was an exciting time for avid book readers and writers of any level as the wonderful Fog Lit festival blew into town. There were some exciting events and workshops which attracted all ages and interests. I had the opportunity to e-interview author and “internationally renowned forensic anthropologist Debra Komar attended the festival, here is that chilling and riveting interview. CAUTION – This interview may be disturbing for some Readers! For more info go to http://foglit.com. JL - When did you first want to write your own book(s)? Debra - I loved books as a kid and always knew I wanted to write. When I was in academia, cranking out the textbook and dozens of scholarly articles. When I retired from academia and active service in 2011, I decided the time had come to give it a try and write something for a general

audience. The result is the four book series Goose Lane is currently publishing. JL - Is there a case(s) that stands out to you more than any other you have worked on? Debra - Because I did mass death, the number of cases I did was huge (I stopped counting at 6,000 and that was years before I retired). There are some large-scale cases I will never forget - working on the Saddam Hussein trial in Iraq in 2004 or testifying at The Hague in the Srebrenica trials. But a lot of smaller cases from when I was at the medical examiner's offices in Edmonton or Albuquerque also stand out. Cases like that may not grab the headlines the way some of the others do, but they are the reason my job was always fascinating. JL - Does music play a role in your work or personal life? (Name maybe 5 songs by which artist if you could.) Debra - That is actually a great question. I did a lot of major deployments for the United Nations and organizations like Physicians for Human Rights. Each one of those experiences, at least for me,

comes with its own soundtrack. War torn countries have little regard for international copyright laws and within days of a military base being established, young local tycoons would set up "record stores" selling bootlegged CDs, DVDs and video games to the troops stationed there. Every disc was a dollar and they managed to get all the latest releases. Sadly, Europe and Southeast Asia tends to favour dance music, so there was a lot of junk and disco but they would produce these strange mix tape disc. For instance, I was in Bosnia in 1999 and my driver "Fast Eddie" listened to the following CD constantly for six months: 1. Mambo No. 5 - Lou Bega; 2. Vida Loca - Ricky Martin; 3. Falling - Alicia Keys; 4. Life during Wartime - Talking Heads; 5. Don't stop till you get enough Michael Jackson. 0041 Jeff Liberty Columnist, @Jlibertyartists

MUSINGS by debbie hickey TWO THINGS This was one of those weeks where I have been vacillating between two topics for this article, so rather than pick just one I have chosen to see the connections between the two and discuss both. Firstly, I recently decided to buy myself a

gift I have been thinking about for several months. . . an e-reader. Anyone who knows me will testify that I am an avid reader. As a child if I was stuck I would read the backs of the cereal boxes while I ate breakfast. Like a smoker who is without cigarettes, as I was nearing the end of one book I would start to wonder where the next one was coming from. As an adult, able to control my own

book supply, this has been less of an issue, tho’ as the reserve of unread books would start to dwindle I would be planning my next trip to pick up more. Somehow I rarely make it to the library so it has been mostly purchasing second-hand books that has kept my addiction supplied. When I paused to consider what this was costing me I realized I have been spending $40-$50 per month on my book habit. Since it is unlikely I will stop reading, the obvious solution was to find a less expensive source. Enter the e-reader. After researching the best brand (make sure it has its own light for reading in bed!) that is also compatible with the NB Public Library (e-books are free to borrow, just like “real” ones) I took the plunge. It took me most of an evening to figure out what I needed to get those free library books, but I got there. I have finished reading one, have a hold on another (in other words I am waiting for it to be returned so I can borrow it next) and have downloaded a second. BUT. . . Michael and I read many of the same books, so I am not sure how it is going to work with only one e-reader. Either we will need to get another, or I will continue to make occasionally forays for second-hand books. Which brings me to the second thing on my mind. . . recycling. The vote for those of us served by Fundy Region Solid Waste as to whether curbside collection of recyclables will become a reality is coming up later this month. Mike and I are devoted recyclers. All those books are dutifully returned to be resold over and over, and if one should fall apart it would go into the paper recycling, never the garbage. The big concern regarding curbside recycling is cost. Let me ask, are you aware of the cost involved? A mere $18. Not per week, not per month, per YEAR. Come on people, that’s one coffee per MONTH to pay for curbside recycling. It’s time we take the environment seriously. Let’s do what’s right for our corner of the world. . . it will be fifteen years before we have an opportunity to revisit this. Do we really want to wait that long for the cost of a coffee a month? 0002 Debbie Hickey President, Ossekeag Publishing
