“PREDICTIONS FOR 2014” So here are a few predictions for the new year!! 1) Climate change will have us see more unexpected weather events, which will cause major disruptions, floods, power outages and other nasty things (this is a technical term used by wimpy forecasters). Batten down the hatches, fire up the generator and hunker down!! 2) New Brunswick, will introduce new wood allocations for the big forestry companies that will still be based on high volume/low value fibre removal from our woodlands. Why is this a recipe for disaster?? A gentleman in Nova Scotia working a mature woodlot that has not been devastated by this high volume/ low value strategy can send $200 of wood value in a single envelope (veneer for guitars). For the same $200 a woodlot owner in New Brunswick will deliver approximately 9,000 pounds of wood to a mill!! Seeking low volume and high value products from our forests is our only salvation for the future. 3) Perhaps not this year, but within a few years fracking for natural gas will take off, regardless of what party is in power!! The
reason... they can’t turn away from the extra revenue being promised. Why is this a bad idea?? Well, the environmental concerns are certainly legitimate, but do you know what really bothers me?? No... well, I will tell you. The government in power will spend that money just as if it was going to last forever, and when the wells are dry we will be desperate once again to find the next resource that we can decimate. Proof of this, is the fact that the Alberta government awash in oil extraction and low unemployment is expecting a $2,8 BILLION dollar deficit for 2013 (Huffington Post)!! What is that province going to do when the oil runs out?? And believe me, our government will act very similarly. 4) The Jet will start a voluntary diet and lose 10 pounds. Are you crazy!! Not a hope of this ever happening!! 5) The missus will suddenly understand the need for more forestry equipment for Mikie to work (play) with!! Are you crazy!! Not a hope of this ever happening!! Best wishes for the new year and I hope the first three predictions never come true!! 0001

VOLUNTEERS SAY “THANK YOU” All the volunteers would like to say ‘Thank You’ to all those people that helped them make the 3rd Annual Christmas Dinner a success once again in Sussex; the people who gave turkey’s, money, food and time. There were over 100 people who shared food and laughter Christmas afternoon at the Jubilee Hall (Sussex Senior’s Centre). All left over food went to the Transition House in Sussex and Outflow (a place that feeds many street people in Saint John). All left over money went to the Senior’s Centre and the Sharing Club. Thanks once again for your help. 0090
CORNHILL W.I. The Cornhill WI celebrated its 100th anniversary in late 2013. The group,
which was founded in 1913, is dedicated to supporting the greater Cornhill community through its holiday cheer baskets, fundraisers for international and local women and families, donations of care items and funds to local nursing and special care homes, and book donations to the local library.

5 ways to keep a resolution
1
Keep a progress Journal. One of the biggest hurdles to setting a goal and keeping it, is the goal itself. It seems so large and daunting. It’s an ideal situation and we don’t live in an ideal world. Make room for your slip-ups and make note of all the little successes along the way. Write just a couple of short lines everyday, about your progress, or lack thereof. When you get discouraged you can look back and see how far you’ve come and how many days you’ve been successful in meeting your goal. That way when a bad day comes along it doesn’t seem like you should just give up altogether.
2
Talk to your friends about it. No one likes a person who constantly brags about their achievements and everything they’ve done, but that doesn’t mean you can’t mention it once in awhile. If your goal is a good one, then the changes you’re making will be permanent and have some effect on your life, so why not talk about it once in awhile. Talking
about goals and changes can actually help to strengthen your resolve to meet your challenges and get through them. try and find someone else who set some New Year’s resolution and compare notes with them. Talk with them about how you’re doing, and encourage each other. Acknowledge your success.
3
Break it down into stages. One of the most daunting things about a goal can simply be the size of it. If you’ve set a good one it should take a bit of effort to achieve. Isn’t that the point though, to strive to change. However, this can make it seem like you’re climbing a mountain and success only comes when you get to the top. Break your goal down into stages and celebrate each time you get through a stage. Just make sure that your celebrations don’t conflict with your goal. If you’re trying to drop ten pounds for summer, don’t celebrate with chocolate cake, and keep away from ‘cheat days’. Don’t treat your setbacks as failures,
Stretching and short quiet walks are a great way to relax and unwind after a long day. just acknowledge that they happened and move on. There’s going to be some bumps, but if it was easy everyone would be doing it. Sale Dates: Jan. 14th to Jan. 31st

and double up the next day. That kind of snowballing makes it easier to quit when you realize that you haven’t meet your goals for the whole week and now you have 50,000 steps to get done before Monday. Let it go. It’s better to miss a day or two then to quit entirely. If you do backslide a bit, remind yourself how far you’ve come. Missteps and setbacks are easiest to fix if caught and corrected early, and they most often happen early on when you’re getting into your groove. Take it easy on yourself for the first few months, you’re adjusting and nothing changes overnight. Consider the yourself a work in progress and allow for the bad days too. Don’t expect perfection right from the start. If wouldn’t be much of a goal if you nailed it in a day.
Get out and soak up rays, feel the breeze and enjoy each day. Change your mindset, it can be hard, but it’s also rewarding. Take time to be thankful for the little things that we so often take for granted.
4
Don’t quit over a setback. Don’t let your setbacks get in the way of your goals. There are going to be days when you don’t get in your 10,000 steps, or you don’t meet
your challenge, but don’t let that mindset sink in. Treat these days as anomalies. Recognize that days you don’t meet your goals are not the norm and you will do better tomorrow. Also, don’t try
5
Make it Realistic, Keep it Reasonable. Set goals that have two defining criteria: 1) make them realistic & achievable, 2) set a time frame. It’s better to set a goal that is a little beyond what you can currently do and then overshoot and go beyond your goal than to set one that is way beyond what you can do and then fail to meet your goal. Do a little research and find out what is possible,

and work from there. Don’t try to run a marathon one month after you decide to stop being a couch potato. Give yourself a realistic amount of time to get there. Set some goalposts along the way. If you want to run a marathon, make your first goalpost a 1K Fun Run then a 5K run. Work your way up and celebrate your victories as you go. You’re not going to make it if you’re not enjoying it.
5 resolutions to make
1
Read More. TV is great and movies can be wonderful but books should rule the roost when it comes to entertainment. Reading a book is such an enriching experience and one that unfortunately is becoming less common with the ever increasing number of screens around us. Now it’s easy to read more than ever before, and books are available on any subject. Keep a book in your purse, school bag, or briefcase and read a few pages while you wait, take the bus (if you can read in motion), or on your lunch break. Set daily goals using page flags to mark where you want to be by the end of the day. You don’t even
One great way to feel better is to eat better, trade in your potato chips for carrot sticks and dressing. need to spend any money to read more. Go to the library and borrow a book. If remembering to bring the book back is too much of a hassle go pick one up at a bookstore. Used bookstores can be great for finding new authors or genres that you like. A used book is usually less than half the price of buying the same book new and the story is the exact same no matter how much you pay for it. Keep a book around and keep your mind active.
Exercise More (Lose Weight). This is a pretty common one, and probably the one that is the hardest to achieve and the easiest to shrug off. Set a realistic goal for yourself. To maintain a healthy lifestyle you should plan to lose no more than one or two pounds a week. Weight loss isn’t just about losing weight but keeping it off. Keep focused on more than just the weight loss, focus on having a happy, healthy, and hopefully longer life. Set your goals and do what you need to achieve them. A step counter can be a great way to track your success. Record how many steps you do each day and add up the totals for each week. A measuring tape helps as well. Keep track of how many inches you’ve lost this can be more telling than just keeping track of your weight alone. Weight loss isn’t immeadiately apparent as our bodies build muscle as we excercise and loss weight, but you’ll be able to see the inches coming off. When making this kind of lifestyle change it needs to be a lifestyle you can maintain. Don’t make up a regiment that’s going to make you miserable, that’s just not going to last. Incorporate movement into your day. Dance around the house and smile more.

Find a new Hobby. Find a hobby that relaxes you, maybe one that you did years ago but it fell by the wayside. Make sure it’s something completely separate from what you do for a living and that you find it relaxing. Woodworking, painting, needlework, photography are great hobbies for anyone and there’s so many more. Find at least twenty minutes everyday to de-stress and work on what it is you enjoy and relaxes you. Keep your expenses down at first, test the water before you jump right into something new. Don’t spend money on all the cool bits until you’re sure you like it. That way if you change hobbies you’re not left with a pile of equipment that you don’t really need, and don’t be afraid to change hobbies until you find one you love.

Learn to Cook. Cooking is one of those skills that easy to do but hard to master. Don’t try to learn from the cooking shows on TV. They go to fast, and use ingredients that most people have never heard of. Instead take to the internet and read articles, watch videos and find new recipes that you’d like to try.

Grow a Garden. Contrary to what you may believe gardens don’t have to be sprawling plots spread over a half
acre of land. They can come in any shape and size. Even if you only have a small balcony you can still grow a nice herb garden to add flavour to whatever you’re cooking. Box gardens are also viable alternatives for people with a small yard, and vegetables will flourish in such an environment. Make your garden fit your available time and space and have the kids help out, if you have any. Growing your own vegetables can be something the whole family can participate in. It’s a great learning experience for kids to understand how plants grow and where the food we eat comes from. While summer is still a long way off, don’t let the cold stop you from getting out and enjoying the great outdoors. When summer does come be sure to get outside and enjoy the warm air, blue sky, and green grass.

GET FRESH WITH FOOD For those of you who don't know me, my name is Dave Wolpin. I own Dave's Produce Packs and Kredl's Corner Market. I was asked to write a regular column for Ossekeag Publishing magazinesOssekeag Publishing’s community magazines and I accepted without hesitation. I certainly don't want to use the opportunity to advertise my operations. Rather, I'd like to use the exposure to share my thoughts and experiences with food. I intend for this to be an educational experience, not just for readers, but also for me. I have no formal education in anything related to agriculture, nutrition or even business, so if you read something that offers the opportunity to teach me something or start a conversation, please do not hesitate to send me an email. This is my first article, and I hope you will read regularly. I took a break for a few days to ring in the new year in Toronto. It always shocks me when I walk the streets. I can't help but watch people. I definitely belong in a rural setting. I observe parents with their children, people that fit stereotypes, people who seem to cling to their brand name possessions and I try to imagine their connection with food. I especially like to take note of what I see people eating. I wonder if they have any idea where their food came from. Do they think about what they eat? Do they eat to

be full or do they eat to be healthy? Time in the city makes me think about the bubble I live in. I experience people everyday who don't think about what they eat, but the truth is that even the least food-conscious New Brunswickers drive past farms on a regular basis. In a city like Toronto, there are people who don't even know that a carrot is a root, people who would not have a hope of recognizing a broccoli plant. We should be grateful for this awareness we were born into. I have decided to spend my life trying to reconnect people with their food. We are all a part of this planet and we shouldn't think of ourselves as being above any part of it. Our bodies grow when we put food and water into them. Water comes from the ground and food comes from elements of the earth combining with water and a seed. We grow from some pretty amazing parts of the Earth and we should never forget this in our daily actions. It is so important to take care of every part of humanity and humanity to come. What I am really trying to say is that we are what we eat. It seems obvious, but I encounter a never-ending stream of people who have health problems, yet see no correlation between their wellness and the food that enters their bodies. My goal is to change that for this generation. Who's with me? 2567

DON’T DELAY! REACH OUT TODAY Even though the Alzheimer Society of New Brunswick has information, education and support programs available across the province, families often delay contacting the Society until they reach their ‘breaking point’. That is why during Alzheimer Awareness Month, the Alzheimer Society of New Brunswick launching a new campaign, Don’t Delay! Reach out Today to promote the benefits of connecting to Alzheimer Society and their programs early. Accessing programs earlier opens the door to important information, education and support. The Alzheimer Society can help families and people with dementia empower themselves with knowledge about the disease, prepare and plan for the future, as well as helping reducing feeling of isolation. The Alzheimer Society is excited to be launching a new and innovative provincewide program called, Memory Café. Alzheimer disease and related dementias can be a very isolating for both those diagnosed and their family members. A Memory Café combines aspects of socialization,
education and activity within a safe and inclusive environment. Memory Cafés are designed to create a community of support, with inclusiveness as the backbone of the program. The Alzheimer Society offers this program to those impacted by memory loss, no matter the diagnosis, or stage of progression. Family members of all ages, formal and informal caregivers and the general public are also invited to attend. Throughout January, New Brunswickers are encouraged to contact their local Alzheimer Society or visit their website: alzheimernb.ca, to learn more about Memory Cafés, how to start a new Memory Café in your community, how to become a volunteer, and to learn more about other Society programs. 0050

ASK THE CHEF My name is Colin Sifton. I am the owner and Chef down at Holly’s Restaurant on Main Street in Hampton. I have been a Chef for 20 plus years now and everywhere I go people ask me questions about food, food processing and what I would do with different items that they may have grown in their gardens. This is a column to answer any of those questions you may have. Food is my passion and I am always interested in learning more and teaching those who are interested in learning more about the world of food. Recently someone asked me why cashew nuts are so expensive. Like most everything in life, it is all supply and demand, but looking closer into what is a cashew nut, I discovered that it is not actually a nut and where it comes from was a surprise. Cashew nuts are a seed that grows under an inedible fruit called a cashew apple. So this is one of the reasons cashews come with a big price tag. One seed from each fruit. One tree only produces a few hundred fruits so it would take a lot of trees to make it worth processing.

The other reason they are high priced is because cashews taste good. It is a very popular nut because of its unique flavour. I couldn’t imagine having cashew chicken made with any other nut. Peanut chicken just would not be the same. A sauce like macahini would not have the same richness without the cashew nut. The cashew nut has to be one of my favourite nuts, not just to munch on, but to cook with as well. Why are they so
expensive? The best often is. So, if you have any questions you have always been curious about and think I may have the answer, send me a note. If you are ever in Holly’s Restaurant and see me, call me over and ask me your questions. If I do not have an answer for you, you can be sure that I will find out before you come back. If you have a question you’d like Colin to answer, send it in to: editorial@ossekeag.ca. 2569 Save 15% on converting wood/oil furnaces to heatpump

LOCAL ODDITY AT THE SUSSEX AGRICULTURAL MUSEUM By: Caleb Burns The Sussex Agricultural Museum is home to a delight of unique treasures from the agricultural history in New Brunswick. Perhaps its most unique resident is a calf born almost one hundred years ago in 1919. The calf was born with one head, seven legs, and two bodies that separated from the shoulders back. Unfortunately, the mother had to be destroyed when the calf was born. For the six weeks the
calf lived, it was taken care of by local veterinarian, Dr. Savage. Upon its death he had the unique animal preserved. The calf was donated to the agricultural museum when Dr. Savage passed away. Since then it has delighted tourists and locals alike with its presence at the museum. The Sussex Agricultural Museum opens in early July and stays open until the end of August. 2564

WATSON: Watson is a 2 year old orange, shorthaired male with green eyes. A very docile cat who loves to be petted and fussed over, often found stretched out on a sunny windowsill working on his tan. He gets along well with all the other felines and does not seem to mind dogs. Neutered, vaccinated and all parasites taken care of, Watson, who arrived at the Sanctuary last March is ‘so ready’ for a permanent home. If you are interested in adopting Watson, please call the Sanctuary for an appointment to meet him. Adoption fee for cats in our care is $115 which includes:

HOW TO PREPARE FOR A POWER OUTAGE By: Caleb Burns Emergency Preparedness: Emergency Kit Just before Christmas the power went out for many people in New Brunswick as a brutal four day ice storm swept across our province. It turned driveways into skating rinks and covered trees and power lines with thick, heavy ice. December’s ice storm will be remembered and talked about for years, but the question on everyone’s mind is what can I do to be more prepared next time. With another few months of winter and no shortage of cold weather in sight it’s a good question to ask. While most of us have everything we need during a power outage, it’s usually scattered throughout the house. A power outage in the middle of winter is no time to try to steal the batteries from the TV remote. Especially if it’s already dark. Having a good emergency kit ready and onhand can be the difference between a power outage being just mildly frustrating rather than down right annoying and stressful. Flashlights and spare batteries are a must, and probably the first thing you’ll want to find after the lights go out and you’re left in the dark. It’s best to keep your flashlight in a place that is easy to find when your house is pitch black. Ideal locations would be the top drawer of a nightstand or a cupboard in the bathroom, most of us can find our way to the bathroom in the dark. The rest of your emergency kit can be kept in an out of the way closet, under the bed in a plastic tote, or anywhere you have extra space. The size of your kit is up to you, but most sources agree that the essentials are: Water (2L per person per day, plan for three days); canned food, granola bars, nuts, other no-cook foods; a manual can opener; battery
powered radio (preferably with the same size batteries as your flashlights); extra batteries; extra flashlights; first aid kit; infant formula and prescription medication; extra car and house keys; small bills; emergency plan and contact information. Once you have your essentials gathered up and squirreled away for the worst to come you might want to give some thought to some other items that can make it a little easier to live without power. Candles (matches and a lighter also) are a great way to fill a room with some ambient light, never leave candles unattended and make sure to blow them out before going to bed. A few extra warm blankets wouldn’t go amiss when the cold starts to creep in. A small camp stove to boil water and prepare simple meals is a great thing to have on hand. Try using it beforehand to familiarize yourself with its operation and never use it indoors. Phone chargers that plug into your car is a quick and easy way to keep your phone’s battery fully charged. A bottle of hand sanitizer makes it easy to keep clean without running water. With no other entertainment, available a deck of cards and a few search-a-words and Sudoko pads would be a good way to pass the time. After the power has gone out, unplug whatever you can in your house, turn all light switches off, except one inside and one outside, and if you have electric heat turn the thermostats down low. It is easier for the power company to restore power to the grid when it is not under load. With the amount of snow and ice that we are likely to get over the coming months you’ll be glad to be prepared if the power goes again for more than a day or two. 2568

MUSINGS
by Debbie Hickey
THANK YOU!
The family of the late
Carcella(Kit) Floyd, who passed away December 21, 2013, would like to express our gratitude to The EMS staff and Dr. Butler of the Sussex Health Centre; the staff of Sussex Select Funeral Home and Rev’d. Allen Tapley for their loving care and kindness. Many thanks to family and friends for the donations, flowers, cards, messages of condolence, food and visits.
Thank you for the overwhelming support, The Floyd Family
My last musings of 2013 suggested we should all take a minute to thank those around us who give up their time at Christmas to “ensure our streets are safe, our hospitals stay open, we can get gas for our cars, prescriptions filled for the sick, and diapers for the babies”. Had I known what we were in store for, I would have added a special thank-you to those who postponed or interrupted their own Christmas celebrations to restore the power to so many in our readership area. Add to that the hundreds of people who assisted those who were several days without electricity in so many ways, whether taking in house guests, cooking hot meals, providing water for drinking, showers and laundry, wood for stoves, lending or assisting in the setup of generators to keep families in their homes. The amazing sense of community demonstrated during this experience is what stands out most for me. The true spirit of Christmas was demonstrated again and again. People with no power who nevertheless shared their generators with neighbours. People invited to share Christmas dinner with those fortunate enough to have power. People giving up their precious time off work to help out at community shelters and warming centers. It will certainly be a Christmas remembered and talked about for many
years, and while bodies may have been chilled, hearts were warmed by the generosity offered by so many. “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” ~ Aesop P.S. This is our first issue of a brand new year, and the beginning of our “makeover”. We have talked and planned long enough . . . it is time to do! We hope you like what you see so far, but we are far from finished. We want your input as we continue our evolution. We look forward to hearing from you. 0002
