There are a number of people who believe that “climate change” is not linked to greenhouse gases and the use of fossil fuels. I say - “No problem”!! But here is the problem with that. Let’s examine what has happened over the past three hundred years or so. I am betting that once you could drink from any running stream or river in the province. Today, well .. sometimes you can’t even drink the municipal water supply. Once, our air was pure and pollution free .. today .. not so much!! Once, we had large old trees that held a diverse and healthy population of plants and animals .. today .. not so much (about 99% of old age trees are gone). Once, our land was brimming with gold, diamonds, asbestos, zinc, potash and fossil fuels .. today ..not so much!! Can anyone detect a problem?? The continuing ruthless and unlimited extraction of ALL resources, will leave

our world naked of resources. How do we expect that future human life will continue in any manner except one of severe poverty?? Do you really believe in treating the future of mankind and womankind like a litterbug. “Just toss it out of the car and it’s someone else's problem?? Do you really believe that we have NO responsibility for the future of the world that we live on?? If you do .. so be it .. very sad. Just don’t give me the excuse that climate change isn’t caused by burning fossil fuels as an excuse to keep on raping our resources. 0002

dOLLARS & SENSE PREPPING FOR POST-SECONDARY I read a survey result a couple years back that said only 50% of Canadians heading to post-secondary education will actually have money saved for them to do so (not meaningful cost, just money set aside specifically towards education). Not to be a pessimist, but I imagine this rate has not changed much as statistically Canadians are not saving and continue to rack up debt. So what are your options? As a parent/guardian there are savings vehicles available to you. Before your child turns 15 and if you are receiving the National Child Benefit Supplement you are eligible to apply for the Canada Learning Bond, where you could receive up to $2000. Another option is opening a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RESP) for your child (the beneficiary). By opening a RESP you will be eligible to receive the basic Canada Education Saving Grant (CESG). The CESG is 20%
of your annual contributions to the RESP up to $7,200. The CESG can increase for lower income families. There are different types of RESPs that you can open. In any case in looking at investments, talk to different financial institutions and find the one that works for your family. The thing to know is the sooner you open or start saving for your child’s education the more you will be eligible for over time. For the student the option is to start saving for what they aspire to do. With having a summer job the goal would be to put a certain amount aside each pay. Another way is to set a goal on an expense. Perhaps the student chooses their books to come out of their income, which would be their goal and an effective way of learning to budget. If you have found yourself in a situation where there has not been the ability to save it does not mean that there are not ways to keep the amount borrowed reduced.
Look at scholarships and bursaries, talk to your financial student aid office and look for ways to cut costs. Ask family members instead of giving gifts have them send gift cards for things such as groceries, so that you can keep your monthly costs down. A not for profit credit counsellor is also a great resource to receive tips on cutting costs as well as budgeting advice.

GENTLE PATH FALL FUNDRAISING “Pathways to Hope” will be held Thursday, September 15 6:30pm at Imperial Theatre. Presented by Gentle Path Counselling Services, Pathways to Hope is an evening of inspiring stories of individuals and organizations rising above incredible obstacles, combating personal challenges and creating a positive change in their communities. Alongside Keynote Speaker Frank O’Dea, our audience will be enthralled by the resiliency of local individuals and organizations that are proving to be the leaders of tomorrow. Frank’s early years were difficult; while in his early teens he struggled for survival while living in 50-cent flop houses in Toronto. His life began to turn around at age 23 when he began to fight for a better life - a fight he has continued for those who are homeless, impoverished and destitute. Within a few years, Frank became a co-founder of what is now one of the largest coffee and tea chains in the country, Second Cup. Gentle Path Counselling Services provides quality counselling and support group services to individuals, families and children in the counties of Saint John, Kings and Charlotte regardless of their financial means. Proudly, they are able to subsidize these important endeavors through various fundraising events throughout the year. In 2015, Gentle Path provided more than $55,000 to local residents in need by subsidizing individual counselling, as well as educational programs and support services. Please
help our initiative by investing in individuals who will, in turn, invest in our community! Sponsorship opportunities for the event are still available, please call Rhoda 645-9409 for more information. We hope to see you on September 15 at Imperial Theatre for an evening of music, stories, and inspiration. Tickets available online at imperialtheatre. nb.ca or at the box office: 674-4141.

ASK MARY OPTIMISM IS A SKILL I used to be optimistic but grief has stolen it from me. How can I get it back? To be optimistic doesn't mean that you have to forget your feelings of loss; you don't have to deny your negative feelings and pretend everything is okay when it is not. Being optimistic basically relates to your ability to make the best of what you have got, to optimize your circumstances regardless of what life brings your way. Thankfully optimism is a skill we can all learn. Unfortunately, many of us who are grieving are only too familiar with the negative side of things. The key is to become aware of your own energy, to know yourself well on a physical, emotional, mental and even spiritual level. To know what has a negative effect on your energy and to learn to minimize its impact. Once you become more in tune with your life, the next step is to try to not let external circumstances dictate your emotional state. If you have excellent energy management skills, you will be in tune with the different
aspects of your energy and will naturally feel optimistic, healthy and full of vitality! You will naturally radiate positive energy and will form strong energetic connections with others. You will be able to optimize your life, relationship and business. As you grieve you may be suffering from a general lack of energy. You may feel tired and drained. You may be highly stressed and on your way to a complete burn-out. Take action now to bring your energies back into balance before it is too late. Once you begin to bring back some selfcare and nurture your positive energy your natural optimism will follow. As you get a handle on your grief and start to heal, time will help you get back your energy but you may still struggle to be optimistic. Your energy is constantly changing so don't become down-hearted if you find that it takes more time than expected. Make a conscious effort to replace your
negative thoughts and actions with positive ones. Instead of looking at a task and saying, "It's impossible," just commit to doing it. Instead of thinking how hopeless your life is, tell yourself that something needs to change, and then work on changing it. Optimism is about positive, cando beliefs, expectations, choices and strategies, about knowing you are responsible for your life and that you have the ability to be effective on your own behalf. Whatever comes your way, exude positive energies to those around you, and it will be reflected back to you! 0016

NEW BRUNSWICK NOUVEAU-BRUNSWICK Discover • Experience • Explore
Where Wonders Await You
222 Years Old! We thought we would celebrate the New Brunswick Day by sharing some cool facts about our little piece of the world that you may not have been aware of. Let’s start right at the beginning when New Brunswick was created in 1794 after it was partitioned off from Nova Scotia. According to The Macmillan book of Canadian place names, the “name was chosen as a compliment to King George III (17601820) who was descended from the House of Brunswick.” Other proposals for naming the new province were New
Ireland and Pittsylvania, for William Pitt, then British prime minister. Some interesting facts, tales and firsts from New Brunswick: Saint John has the steepest main street in Canada. King Street has an 8 per cent grade. In other words, over the distance of two city blocks, the street rises 80 feet… ( roughly the height of an eight-storey building). No wonder we go uptown in Saint John, not downtown.
Saint John was the home of Canada’s first Y.M.C.A. established in 1870 by Mrs. Agnes A. Blizzard in a house on Germain Street. The first Miss Canada, Winnifred Blair, was from Saint John, New Brunswick. She was crowned on February 10, 1923. The inventor of the ice cream cone was from Sussex Corner. The story
In 1840 Professor L.A. Laurcat started the first balloon ascension in Canada from Barrack Square in Saint John. you could get a ticket for a ride for four shillings. Canadian Forces Base Gagetown, located in Oromocto, is the largest military training area in the British Commonwealth.

goes there was a baker by the name of Walter Donelly who made a bad batch of dough. His shop just happened to be next door to an ice cream parlour. He was at a loss with what to do with his hard, crispy pastry until inspiration struck. Theodore Harding Estabrooks from Wicklow went into business in 1894 on Dock Street in Saint John. His idea… produce and pack a quality blended tea that was consistent from cup to cup. He founded Red Rose Tea in 1890. In 1929, Red Rose introduced tea bags for the first time. Saint John held the first Boy Scout Apple Day in the world, organized by Eli Boyaner on January 30, 1931. July 19th - August 1st, 2016

NEWS FROM KENNEBEC MANOR With the knowledge that Saint John has the highest child poverty rate in Canada, Kennebec Manor and Kings Way Care Centre connected with Centennial School to ask if they have children attending school who are at risk for going hungry over the weekend. They identified 20 families at risk. When our residents learned about this, they wanted to help and our Back Pack program was born! Our residents bake and pack up a variety of foods to
put in packs to ensure children have food on weekends during the school year. This service is provided biweekly. Another important component to our program is the benefit for the elders in our homes to participate. This gives these folks an opportunity to be a valuable contributor to society in a way that is often denied to them when they enter a nursing home. Our project is an intergenerational
initiative that sees seniors helping children and at the same time, fights the plague of helplessness that affects so many elders in our society. We are very blessed to have developed a partnership with IBEW Local 502. Their contributions will help us to enlarge this program that has made a huge difference in the lives of students at Centennial School. Together we can make a difference! 4171
NEW DONOR WALL UNVEILED AT ROCMAURA In a touching tribute, on June 29, long time staff member Bonnie Hourihan made a special donation to Rocmaura Nursing Home, and left a lasting legacy in memory of her son. He was just 17 when he passed away. “AJ committed suicide in 2005. In his short life he was a strong leader. He participated in hockey, football and was full of life. He made a difference in many people’s lives and his memory lives on through us.” Bonnie placed a squirrel on Rocmaura’s donor wall in his memory. “This is just another way to give back to the living while remembering my son.” Foundation Director Sally Cummings says they chose the main dining lounge to display the wall because it is the heart of the home. This tree reminds us to live every day with compassion, integrity and gratitude. By having staff, residents, friends and family display their names on our leaves of legacy, you are making a donation to the Foundation to enhance our Residents’ lives for years to come. The Foundation will use these funds to purchase things the government does not provide for us; from new medical equipment to recreation programs. For more information or make a donation, please contact: Sally Cummings at the Foundation office at 643-7090 or foundation@rocmaura. com. 4165

dIRECTOR’S NOTES SING, SING, SING If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I had this conversation with a friend recently, one of those philosophical musings that happen on a long drive. Of course I had a few contenders for the “one thing.” Who doesn’t want to be a bit taller, or richer, or smarter or stronger? But if I could really have just one change – I would gain the ability to sing. Yes, I was that kid in the grade school choir that the teacher singled out for the directions, “how about you practice just mouthing the words silently.” I married a man who sings beautifully, and we have a daughter with a lovely voice that she uses joyfully on and offstage, and they were both very kind about my participation in lullabies and car ride sing-alongs. But there was some notable flinching. The human voice is, for me, the most magical of instruments - so personal and so universal. Sharing that gift with other people seems to me one of the most generous things anyone can do. It’s not
surprising, then, that I named a series in Imperial Theatre’s 23rd Season, “The Human Voice.” It contains three very different offerings of that wonderful gift. First we have the ever-popular Canadian a capella group, The Nylons. These guys were cool way before Glee and Pentatonix. This is their farewell tour, and I can’t wait to feel the shivers their harmonies invariably induce. My only worry is that they will perform “Up the Ladder to the Roof.” Yes, it’s a wonderful song - and it was very popular at memorial services when I was a young woman losing friends to AIDS. I start sobbing at about the third note. Speaking of physical reactions, Inuit singer Tanya Tagaq makes music with her voice that you feel right into your bones. She has taken traditional throat singing and morphed it into a kind of sensual jazz, winning the Polaris Prize along the way. It really is impossible to describe what she does – but there’s some great video online. This concert will be
Mullin’s Mile Poker Run
like nothing else you’ve ever seen. Tagaq takes the human voice to the very limits, and takes her audience with her. Finally, what is more joyous than many human voices raised together –especially children’s voices? The Vienna Boys Choir, none of whom are just mouthing the words, perform everything from Abba to Schubert. It’s been over a decade since they performed in Saint John, and the theatre will be full of happy fans. I admit that, in my car or sometimes in my office, I sing along with recordings by these fabulous artists. I solemnly promise not to do so on the night. 0030

TALES FROM THE CAMERA BAg GREAT SUMMER FOR GREAT PICS Get on your knees, and many secrets of better photography will be revealed to you. With knees pads or a kneeling pad and the tripod shortened you will be well on your way to going from snapshots to great images. Let’s pretend that we are on a beach and the waves are coming gently and the shoreline is creating a lovely “S” pattern as it winds it’s way to a classic lighthouse; of course this happens during great evening light which lights up the whole scene in a golden glow. As a snapshooter you may just walk up to the lighthouse and take a snap. But this summer you will get to your knees and by lowering your perspective you already have differentiated yourself from the masses. With your wide angle mounted or chosen on your zoom, incorporate an interesting bit of foreground interesting rocks, shells, or driftwood. With the interesting foreground in your composition now use that meandering shoreline and let it lead your eyes to the
lighthouse. Remember, to focus onethird into your frame and use an aperture of f11 to f16 so that much will be in focus. Keeping your horizon level, use the rule of thirds and place the light house on one of those points - you just created a spectacular image. How, lets recap: you changed your perspective, you came while the light was perfect, you incorporated some foreground interest in your image. Using some basic composition skills, you used leading lines and applied the rules of thirds and of course you had an interesting subject. However you have done so much more than just that. You kept you composition simple leaving out anything that did not add to your image. By lowering your lens and adding some foreground interest you have added a sense of scale and depth. You created a flow, an image that gives your viewer so much eye candy as they stroll through your image looking at that driftwood
and the waves rolling on the curvaceous shoreline leading to the lighthouse bathed in a the golden glow of evening. But, of course, while you are down there, try playing with shutter speeds. Using a faster shutter speed will freeze the waves, while slower shutter speeds will give you that silking smooth look. Be patient, training your photographic eye is not an overnight process; it takes years to refine your craft. Great compositions will utilize many of the points touched on above. Bring your camera with you and practice daily. Shoot - Print Share. Edited for space, see full article at:Ossekeag. ca. 0032 Karl Maskos Local Photography Enthusiast

ASK THE CHEF BARBECUE TIME! Colin Sifton here again from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your question. It’s summertime and that means barbecue time and what is better then a nice big burger. Many places have claimed that they were the first to create the hamburger. One of the first written reports of a hamburger is a story of the hamburger steak in 1884 in the Boston Journal. In 1896 the Chicago Daily wrote a story on the hamburger steak sandwich. Otto Kuase invented a sandwich of a beef patty topped with an egg in Hamberg Germany and said this is where the name came from. The most famous burger in the world in the Big Mac, but McDonald’s wasn’t created until 1940. Burgers come in many shapes and sizes. There are round ones and square ones. There are 3, 4, and 5 ounce burgers and little siders. They are usually made of ground beef, but nowadays you can finds burgers made of turkey, chicken
and vegetables. For me I like a traditional burger, about 6 ounces of medium ground beef bound together with egg whites, chopped garlic and salt and pepper. By making a basic burger you can then dress it up however you want. I think this is the most exciting thing about hamburgers today. Like Otto Kuase, who topped his burger with an egg, people have started topping burgers with almost anything. We have gone from adding bacon and cheddar cheese to now adding smoked maple ham with blue cheese or salsa with crispy onions and jack cheese. A burger is made up of three very specific ingredients and how these combinations come together determines the greatness of your burger. First you need to have a great patty. Without a great patty, the heart of your burger can not be perfect. Next is the bun. Many different buns can create a perfect burger. If the bun is too dry, it falls apart. If it is too hard, it makes everything squeeze out. Some like

a flavoured bun and others like the thin buns. It all comes down to preference. The last is condiments and this is where you can get the most creative with your burgers. You can use different kinds of ketchup, mustard and relish like corn relish or hot mustard or get creative with sweet chilli sauce, guacamole and even peanut butter. The only way to know what is a great burger to you is to try something new every time you have burgers. I hope this gives you some ideas for the barbecue this summer and I hope you come up with your own combination for your perfect burger. 0040

LISTEN IN PLAY ME A ROCK ‘N’ ROLL SONG Some years back, I believe it was March 2006, there was a cool multi-venue folk festival that happened in Saint John. For the sake of this story its name will remain nameless due to it being a bit of a mess. I was still pretty fresh to Saint John having moved here in 2002 with my wife, a New Brunswick gal Cynthia, and kids from Ottawa. I had been hosting my own intimate shows at Sessions Café (RIP) in the valley and made a point to volunteer at a few festivals including this “Nameless” folk festival. Volunteering enabled me to get to know the city, the people and to witness some amazing song writing talent live! A few of the highlights for me was seeing Alt-Country artist Robbie Fulks, the master song craftsmen Marshall Crenshaw and Valdy just to name a few. At one time in my car, driving the various artists to their appointed performances, I
had Folk Royalty Stephen Fearing, Marshall Crenshaw (in the front seat!) and the always upbeat, youthful folk troubadour we have come to love known as Valdy. If you ever get a chance to see any of these artists and other gems in your general geography make a point of getting out there. Especially if it’s in a nice intimate listening setting! It always makes for a special evening. Speaking of this, the 70 year old Juno Award winning folk artist Valdy is coming back to our area Wednesday, July 27th, 8 pm at The BMO Studio, 112 Princess Street in the city. If you haven’t experienced this venue yet, trust me it’s a wonderful place to see a show. Here is the FB event with all the details - https://www.facebook.com/ events/497028667158592/ For you folks reading in our a paper edition drop them a line about tickets via 652-

One last thing I want to mention is the show I will be hosting at my home, Liberty House, on Sept 11th with none other than Jim Bryson. I have hosted a few shows like this including Matt Andersen that included a live CD recorded at my home (in the kitchen!) entitled “Live at Liberty House” and a show with PEI’s Dennis Ellsworth. This particular event is going to be really special because we are also hoping to raise money for our Relay For Life Dream team initiative. (Check out our site for it here -http://convio. cancer.ca/site/TR?px=6579224&fr_ id=21632&pg=personal). Cynfully Delicious will have food at the event as well for purchase! If you don’t know Jim Bryson, you’re in for a treat! Not only is he one of this country’s best songwriters with a “fresh off the presses” new release, but he has performed and recorded with Kathleen Edwards, The Weakerthans, Jim Cuddy (Blue Rodeo), Oh Susanna and the Tragically Hip! Message me for more info about the show here jlibertyartists@aol.com For Jim check out www.jimbryson.org. This event supports the artist and this worthwhile cause only!

IN THE gARdEN WEEDS & SEEDS All the flowers of tomorrow are in the seeds of today. ~ Indian proverb. As are all the weeds! Along with the bounty of beautiful flowers, carefully and deliberately planted, are a multitude of weeds, blooming to beat-the-band and ready to disperse their full yield on our carefully tended gardens. This is the time when weeding assumes a very important place in the daily care of our plots, and we will reap dividends if we first concentrate on the chaps that are in bloom. One single Groundsel plant can produce one million seeds in one season and the early seed that falls can be in bloom and in business by midsummer! Hoeing is certainly a fast method of dealing with weeds, however a great many that are left to wither are actually quite capable of setting up a regular weed farm before they die. The very best method is to dig them up and then bury them in the compost bin, hoeing usually leaves enough root in
the ground for the decapitated weed to send up a mass of new growth, stronger and more determined to survive than before; creating an even more daunting task than was originally present! Many garden centres have sales of plants and bushes, which affords the gardener a great opportunity to spend the housekeeping money on all sorts of lovelies that were too costly in the spring. However, great care needs to be taken in choosing the bargains, if the pot seems very light, chances are the content may be too dry to recover; the offerings are likely to be root bound and all will need some TLC before they can be planted. It is wise to give all of these bargains some time in a container of water, first removing the pot they are in and tweaking the root system loose with a hand fork. Once they have soaked for a day, having prepared a hole twice as wide as the pot they came in, a mix of good earth, compost and a small

amount of bone meal should be placed in the hole so that it occupies the same level in the earth that it enjoyed in the pot, then the cavity around them should be filled with more of that mixture and the plants should be well watered. This is best done in the evening when the heat of the day is past and the watering will not be instantly evaporated by the hot sun. If the heavens are a stingy with their water, as has been the case recently, they will need regular watering! Vegetables that are not forming fruit may be suffering from too much Nitrogen; fertilizing beyond the middle of July is not wise. Blessings. 0045

EMERgENCY MEASURES SEVERE SUMMER WEATHER Take your mind back to July 1, 2014 when Hurricane Arthur warnings were being issued for the Atlantic Coast. Were you one of the many who thought “No way that will hit us!” or one of the few who started to take action to “Be Prepared - Not Scared”. By the time Arthur reached the Bay of Fundy, on July 5, the Hurricane force winds had weakened and many hoped that that Arthur had run its course. Mother nature had other plans. Winds, gusting to 75 mph (120 km/h) and rains of over 5.91 inches (150mm), dropped power lines and flooded roads and streets. Over 57% of the customers of NB Power, approximately 140,000 individuals, were without power. This was worse than the damage caused by Hurricane Juan in 2003. TIPS for being prepared. The Province of New Brunswick Department of Health has launched a
heat alert system for many of the areas of the Province. You can sign onto the Emergency Alert system of your municipality to receive heat warnings. The levels are Level 1 humidex 35-39 c for one day; Level 2 humidex forecast 40-44 c for one day or longer; Level 3 humidex greater than 45 c for one day or longer. Hydration is the main concern during hot weather. Three litres per day per person of fluids and water for pets should be stored. Fluids include water, low-fat milk and yogurt, according to the Dietitians of Canada. Foods such as watermelon, grapes and oranges also count. You will be adding sugar when you eat these, so as a diabetic I also offer caution in not eating to many of these. Many municipalities will be able to
offer cooling stations where you may be able to pick up water and ice. During Andrew, a major seafood producer, provided my town with hundreds of pounds of ice. It was distributed from our major sports complex which had become our cooling centre. By including in your emergency plan a chapter on severe summer weather you will “Be Prepared - Not Scared”. 0039

MUSINgS NATURE ON THE BRAIN There have been lots of mainstream media reports on the positive effects of spending time outdoors in the natural
world. From treating mild depression and anxiety to improving memory, spending time in the great outdoors is of great benefit. I was surprised to learn, though, that physical health is equally affected. I recently read “Your Brain on Nature”, co-authored by a medical doctor and a naturopathic doctor. They cite study after after study, but the one I was most surprised by was patients in hospital after surgery had shorter stays, required less pain meds and had fewer notations in their
charts of being difficult patients if their hospital room had a window facing trees and gardens rather than more buildings and parking lots. Just being able to see the natural world from the window had that much influence. Mike and I spend a lot of time in our woodlot, although he has more opportunity than I. Still, at this time of year with the long evenings I get out for an hour in the forest most days. This evening we saw a robin’s nest along the woodroad and three deer who watched us quietly for some time before bounding off. A few days ago there was a mama partridge (ruffed grouse) and several of her offspring who took off as we walked past. And it isn’t even necessary to go the woods to see the critters. Most school mornings I walk out to the bus with my grand-daughter and last month as I was returning to the house I saw something tearing up the driveway ahead of me. I thought at first it was my daughter’s dog that had gotten loose, but no. It was a rather large racoon that I was seeing straight on to his butt as he headed out of sight. He ran a lot like my rather large black
and white cat, Jack! Here in New Brunswick we are blessed with an abundance of nature. If it can make us healthier and wiser, how come we haven’t yet figured out how to use it sustainably instead of destroying it? Perhaps instead of thinking of ourselves a “have-not” province, it is time for a shift in perspective and recognize what we have. 0001 “It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.” ~ Robert Louis Stevenson “But I'll tell you what hermits realize. If you go off into a far, far forest and get very quiet, you'll come to understand that you're connected with everything.” ~ Alan Watts
