So this morning “The Jet” had his annual checkup. As expected, he was perfect, despite the vet noting a bit of weight gain. But, as she explained “he is a big boy” and no dietary restrictions have been ordered. I think I will, however, cut him back a bit since he is just now entering apple season. Now, you wouldn’t think that a dog would have ever heard of the saying “an apple a day, keeps the doctor away”. But “The Jet” eats apples as if he never wanted to see the vet again, but that just isn’t true. The only time that “The Jet” ever sees a leash is when he is going to the vet, but this morning when I pulled out the leash that he hadn’t seen in a year , he actually got excited. He loves going to the vet. Between some doggie treats and being treated like a rock star, he is in doggie heaven. So I ask all you pet owners this question. Does your visit with your doctor even come close to being as smooth, as easy and as enjoyable as your pet’s visit to the vet. And so, I ask once again, “why is it that pets can, by and large get faster smoother health care than people”?? The first obvious reason is that people care is socialized and free, while pet care
is private sector and costs money. Now, before anyone gets all wild, I am well aware that the the US healthcare system is still largely private sector and is by far the most expensive in the world and only delivers mediocre results compared to the best in the world. But, I still believe that there must be ways to either integrate the private sector into our healthcare system or generate more business-like practices. I realize that some people have a distrust for the private sector in delivering certain essential services such as healthcare or drinking water, but please realize, while your heart surgeon may not be private sector, virtually every single piece of equipment that is used will be a product of the private sector. Your surgeon may be great but I would bet that if your heart machine was to stop working midway through a transplant procedure then the surgeon is unlikely to be successful. Quality and efficiency in virtually anything can be produced by the private sector given the right incentives. Just something to think about. 0001

KENNEBECASIS REGIONAL pOLICE NEWS It’s back to school time for teachers, students, and parents. This time of year brings different challenges to everyone regardless if you are in school or not. For the KRPF members it means an increase in traffic and pedestrian safety. Here are a few things motorists, in particular, can do to help make our roads safe. Observe School Zone Speeds: Although you should be obeying posted speed limits all the time, it is especially important during the school year! Children are continually crossing roads on their way to and from school and often aren't paying attention. Going slow and being vigilant is extremely crucial to keeping kids safe. Obey the Crossing Guard: The crossing guard is there to keep children safe. If the crossing guard says STOP, his/her direction takes precedence over other traffic control devices. There might be a child still crossing the street that you can't see. They are trying to keep kids from harm so it is important to do what they say. Exercise Caution Around School Busses: Because of the large amount of children entering and exiting the bus at various stops, it is imperative that extra caution is used when driving near a school bus. Do not pass a school bus when signals lights are flashing and watch your speed around them as a precautionary measure. Watch for Darting Children: Kids are small and excitable and unfortunately for drivers, this can create dangerous situations on the road. It is important to continually be vigilant and alert when behind the wheel during this back to school season as children can be unpredictable and dart out from between parked cars or bus stops. Staying alert and aware will aid in preventing an accident. 0031

Mayo Clinic: Tips on Choosing Hearing Aids • Get a checkup. See your doctor to rule out correctable causes of hearing loss, such as earwax or an infection. • Seek a referral to a reputable audiologist. If you don’t know one, ask your doctor for a referral. Be cautious of free consultations and people who sell only one brand of hearing aid. • Ask about a trial period. A hearing aid should come with an adaptation period. It may take you a while to get used to the device and decide if it’s useful. Have the seller put in writing the terms of the trial period and any expense associated with it. • Think about future needs. Ask whether the hearing aid you’ve chosen has residual amplification so it will still be useful if your hearing loss gets worse. • Check for a warranty. Make sure the hearing aid includes a warranty that covers both parts and labor for a specified amount of time. • Beware of misleading claims. Hearing aids can’t restore normal hearing or eliminate all background noise. Beware of advertisements or salespeople who claim otherwise. • Plan for the expense. The cost of hearing aids varies widely — from several hundred dollars to several thousand dollars. Talk to your audiologist about your needs and expectations. If you’re a veteran or have worked in noise you may be able to get your hearing aids at no cost. Some private insurance policies cover part or all of the cost of hearing aids, but you need to check your policy to be sure. If you suspect hearing loss please call our clinic for a professional assessment.
If you or a loved one suspects hearing loss call our clinic for a complete professional hearing evaluation.

CHERRY BROOK ZOO As you know Tina, the African Lion died from old age in July. She was 23 years old and we all miss her. The zoo is very quiet without the marvellous lion roars! The arrival of new lions is planned for Spring. Currently staff and volunteers are updating the lion enclosure. A recent note from a volunteer: “ even though we know there are no lions at the enclosure right now. When working on cleaning fences and painting it is very creepy. You keep thinking the lion is still around. Gives you shivers!” If persons or companies wish to financially sponsor the new lions please contact Lynda Collrin at the zoo. The old Yak, Star, died at age 23 in July. The animal planning committee is looking at bringing in different animals species to replace the Yaks. The two new foxes are settling in just fine. They are three months old now and their sleeping position is rolled up with each other. So cute! September is Zoo Volunteer

ASK THE CHEf by Colin Sifton pRE-HEATING Colin Sifton here, from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering, with another answer to your question: When should pans be preheated before cooking and how can I tell if they’re hot enough? It really depends on what you are cooking but for the most part, all pans should be preheated as well as ovens. Putting cold food into a cold pan and letting them heat up together tends to make your product sweat and will not give you the desired outcome. When frying meat, chicken or fish you will need a very hot pan. By cooking in a preheated pan with a small amount of oil, you will seal your product, trapping in all the juices and flavours which gives you a proper product. If you add any of these to a cold pan, you will see moisture beginning to appear in your pan. This has come from your meat and it has now made it less moist as well as more tough: two things you
never want out of the main ingredient of your meal. There is a really easy way to tell if your pan is hot enough. We call it the smoke point. This is when the oil in the pan just begins to smoke. This is the point where the oil begins to break down and will not get any hotter. All oils have a different smoke point. Canola oil has a smoke point of 200 degrees C, where extra light olive oil is about 242 degrees C and is better for you. The oil right now that has the highest smoke point is avocado oil at 271 degrees C. You should never cook in butter, even though everyone does. The smoke point of butter is 177 degrees C but the bigger problem is that butter has milk solids as well as oil and these milk solids burn before your food is ready and some studies has shown that it may cause cancer. If you like cooking with butter, may I suggest microwaving the butter first to separate the oil from the milk solids and then use the oil to cook with.
Your oven should also be preheated for the same reasons as the pans. If you start with a cold product in a cold oven not only are you going to lose moisture and tenderness, but it will take longer for your oven to come to temperature. If you are following a timed recipe, this will no longer be accurate. I know a lot of people do not take the time to preheat as it takes time to coordinate the next step in your preparation, but try it and I promise you will see a difference in the end product, more compliments on your meal and a healthier meal for your family. 0040

GET YOUR KIDS EXCITED ABOUT RETURNING TO SCHOOL (NC) – One way to ease children out of summer fun and into the idea of returning to school is to take them shopping for the things they like. Most kids already have an idea about what they consider trendy and what fits their personality, so involving them in the process can help create enthusiasm for the upcoming school year. They will be happy to make their own choices and to express their creativity while feeling proud and confident about their new outfits and gear. Of course, your judgment is required to ensure comfort and durability. But when everyone prefers to be outdoors in the sunshine, shopping is only fun if we can save both money and time. One-stop shops are the answer, says the enthusiastic

For parents time and money is saved by finding everything under one roof. Colours, shapes, and movie characters are good stimuli for kids. Those visuals
activate their imagination and help to spark their interest. This year, Ninja Turtles, Hello Kitty, Transformers and Monster High are all the rage. You can find them on several back-to-school items, from backpacks and lunch boxes to notebooks and t-shirts.

LISTEN IN by Jeff Liberty THE TApER The art and hobby known as taping has been around for decades with early recordings by folk and blues music archivist. It was popularized in the late 60's as fans of the Grateful Dead. I have always been interested in taping (and Live Recordings) and a musical friend of mine Colin Waldschutz has been doing it for awhile. Jeff - How did you first get into taping? Colin - I am a long time listener of live recordings, mainly from open taping bands like the Grateful Dead and Phish. I started recording shows locally that no one else was taping. I wanted to have a souvenir or record of the local live shows from both local and touring bands. Jeff - What artists actually verbalize publically that they don't mind if folks tape their shows? Colin - There are many artists who allow taping, and encourage it. Some larger acts like Phish set aside special tickets and a
reserved portion of the venue (usually behind the soundboard) for tapers to set up and record their shows. Many other acts such as moe., Blues Traveler, Galactic (all coming to Harvest this year) allow and encourage taping. The realization is that allowing decent gear to record their shows produces better results than the multitude of incomplete handheld iphone and camera recordings floating around. The idea that live recording is “bootlegging” is old fashioned. Many venues stick with their generic “no recording devices” approach which is too bad, because they are only preventing people who could make a really good recording. Jeff - Very good point! What is a somewhat ideal environment to tape in? Colin - I record with mics and a mic stand. Anywhere you can get the mics up and out of the crowd to avoid the chatter of the crowd is essential. 10 feet or more is usually good, and then somewhere relatively centred from behind the soundboard to about halfway to the stage. That will give you the most reliable results. The ultimate
ideal location is when you can set up in the sweet spot in the room/venue and the crowd is quiet and respectable. Jeff - What are your top three favorite live recordings that you have heard? Colin - Three favourites are tough, so I will go with Phish 12/31/1999 all night show from Big Cypress Florida (Neumann U89 source). 8 hours of amazing music. Another would be the Grateful Dead from 5/7/77, one of their best ever, and the third would be another 1977 show – Pink Floyd from Oakland Coliseum 5/7/77. That is just today’s choices, it will likely be different tomorrow! Jeff - Where can folks check out your recordings? Colin - https://www. facebook.com/ MaritimeTapers. There is also a wonderful community for sharing live music called the Live Music Archive. Happy Jeff Liberty Taping :) 0041 Columnist, @Jlibertyartists

Does back-to-school mean a CELL phone for your child? (NC) Your child is asking for a cell phone on her back-to-school list. She’s only in primary school but “everyone has one!” While there’s no ‘magic age’ to get a phone, a 2013 MediaSmarts* survey found that 52% of students in Grade 7 have their own phone. If your child travels on his or her own and you need to be able to stay in touch, even if it’s only for emergencies, it might be time. If you do equip your child with a phone,
CROSSWORD
you’ll want to teach him or her how to use it responsibly. Here are a few tips from Rogers on how to set your child up for wireless success: • Set rules. For example, you may want to instruct your child to keep their wireless phone in their backpack during school hours, to reduce the odds of it being stolen, or to avoid using it while their full attention is needed. Let them know the dos and don’ts up front. • Set usage limits. Children can easily become engrossed in their devices. Establish clear rules around how and when their phones or tablets have to be off. • Let them know if the phone is purely for emergency purposes. You can also limit their phone usage to text messages only. You may choose a light usage plan, or even a family share plan to stay within your budget. • Explain wireless internet isn’t unlimited. Give them an idea of how many calls and texts, as well as how much web-surfing they’re limited to, in order to stay within your data allowance and budget. Rogers has a free online calculator that can help.

• Consider sharing the cost. Some parents purchase a prepaid wireless phone, and then make it the child’s responsibility to pay for the airtime used. Alternatively, others add the child to their own wireless phone contract on a family plan and then have the child pay for any “extras”, such as ringtones, games, and so on.

pOINT Of VIEW BACK TO SCHOOL BLISS September means many things – the promise of cooler weather, a collage of beautiful colours, warmer clothing and, of course, back to school. If you're a parent, you're probably rejoicing right about now. The boredom that has afflicted many a student this summer is about to end, only to be replaced by hectic schedules, homework and a never-ending lists of school supplies and clothing to buy. It also means coming up with new and inventive ways to pack a lunch that your kids will actually eat. Aside from the Christmaslike costs and long line-ups associated with back to school shopping, making lunches is probably my least favorite task associated with back to school. It starts out pretty good. I stock up on all of the essentials my teen “has” to have for her lunch, only to discover a week or two later that she no longer likes it. Really? Oh, and giving her money to eat in the cafeteria comes with its own set of challenges.
by Diane McMillan
Apparently, cafeteria food is gross, the lineups are too long, and there's no place to sit when you finally get your food (teen nonproblem #1,271). As the mother of a 14-year-old daughter, I've never had to drag her to the mall to shop. She goes willingly, and with a long list of wants to boot. She could (and does) spend countless hours looking for that perfect new outfit, or that latest footwear trend. I don't remember shopping being that complicated, when I was growing up. As long as you owned a pair of Levi's, neon anything and enough hairspray to make that big hair even bigger, you were happy – and I was! Now, there's more pressure put on kids (and their parents) to wear name brand everything. That's what I love about private and/or independent schools like Valley Christian Academy and Rothesay Netherwood. Everyone wears a school uniform, and everyone looks the same. It gives students the ability to focus on what's really important – getting a quality education.
Throughout my daughter's elementary school years, teachers purchased the school supplies and we paid a fee when school resumed. Boy, do I miss those days! Now, there's dozens of choices for everything from binders and pencil pouches to markers and backpacks. This year, I've delayed the inevitable so don't be surprised if you see this chick in a store on Labour Day weekend looking as dazed as some men do on Christmas Eve. As we send our students back to the classroom, remember to slow down and enjoy the scenery, watch for school buses carrying our precious cargo, and thank a teacher – they've earned it! I'd love to hear from you. My e-mail is diane@ ossekeag.ca. 0032

IN THE GARDEN by Betty Kennett fALL fROSTS ARE JUST AROUND THE CORNER BE pREpARED! With the beneficial rains that we have enjoyed throughout the gardening season, the bounty of vegetables has been impressive; if we are to get the greatest reward for all the toil that has been put into growing them we need to be harvesting and storing before Mother Nature wreaks havoc! Large green tomatoes can be taken in before frost; by placing them on newspaper lined plastic bread trays and covering them with another layer of paper, they will slowly ripen, affording a lengthy and continuous supply of ripe fruit. Tomato plants can also be dug up just prior to frost, hung by their roots in a cool cellar; they will produce ripe fruit until Christmas. When harvesting potatoes care must be taken to deal with those that have green shoulders... a result of not being hilled up properly... these have the potential
of causing Spina Bifida from the toxins produced and should NEVER be eaten by expectant mothers. Most root vegetables store well in a cold room, preferably tucked into wood shavings, onions can be carefully dried away from strong sunlight and braided into attractive strings, great decoration for the kitchen and handy for snapping off for the stir fry etc. This is a great time to collect seed from favourite plants, these should be hung from their stems inside a brown paper bag in a cool, airy, dry locality when the seed fall out of their casings and are totally dried they should be labelled and stored in paper envelopes ready for swapping and planting next spring. Dahlias, Gladioli and other such bulbs and tubers can be left to experience the first ‘killing’ frost but should then be dug up and slowly dried out, at that point excess foliage needs to be removed and they too can be stored in a dry cool location in peat moss or wood shavings; all ready for the early spring planting which is sure to be a reality next year!
By now most ponds have produced far more growth than is good for them, ideally a pond should have at least one third of its surface uncluttered by vegetation, all pond weed should be removed, it will turn up next spring with great eagerness and most of the plants in the ponds will benefit from a bit of thinning out. All of this activity will provide ample space for frogs and toads to become as amorous and productive as possible, perhaps a suitable selection of music as you enjoy the final BBQ’s of the season will aid them in their endeavours and we will all reap the benefits next year of an army of their progeny scoffing the mosquitoes and their kin; sadly we can no longer depend on the wee brown bat for their services!

mAKE HOmEWORK A BREEZE (NC) – Often for families, homework can be a struggle. Who said it has to be that way? With a few tips, you can help make homework smoother so you both can enjoy school nights without homework hassles. Firstly, taking a short break after class is important to aerate the neurons. After a day at school listening to teachers, kids need a reboot. However, don’t wait too long. An hour should be plenty, unless they go to daycare, in which case no break time is required. Why not give them a light healthy snack when they get home from school while mentioning that right after it will be time to do their homework? Over time they will develop the habit and you won’t even have to mention anything. It could make all the difference in the world as they get ready for high school. Secondly, the workspace is crucial. It’s not easy for kids to concentrate when there’s action around or if the TV is on. So it’s best to dedicate a space for homework, whether in an office or in their bedroom. The important thing is to have a bright,
organized workspace, without too much distraction. It should be inviting, comfortable, and have everything they need such as pencils, highlighters, paper, etc. You can find these items at great prices in big box stores like Target. Kids should

be encouraged to maintain this space clean, so that when they sit down their brain automatically switches to learning mode. And it is much more efficient than trying to do homework on the corner of a kitchen table.

fRESH WITH fOOD by Dave Wolpin SURVIVAL Of THE HARDEST With heart disease as one of our leading killers, it is an obvious and justifiable impeller of many people’s health kicks. However, in reality, if your diet is poor enough to develop heart disease, you have undoubtedly already endured a decade of other health problems you may not have considered to be related. Many of us do not appreciate the interconnectedness of our body functions. Atherosclerosis is one of the main causes of heart disease once it is developed, but in its early stages it causes a host of other issues throughout our body. Atherosclerosis is far from simple but in as few words as possible, it is the hardening of the arteries resulting from a buildup of fatty plaque and eventually leads to the inflammation of the arteries. The danger is that while Atherosclerosis affects the entire artery tree. Eventually, it is too late and the plaque ruptures, causing a thrombus (blood clot) and you have a
heart attack or if it happens in your brain, a stroke. Chronic lower back pain is extremely common in our population. Dr. Michael Gregor argues that “atherosclerosis can obstruct the arteries that feed the spine and this restriction in blood flow can cause lower back pain. [This is because] the disks in our lower back are the largest avascular tissue in the body, meaning that they have no blood vessels, so the nutrition has to diffuse in from the edges, so they are particularly vulnerable to nutrient deprivation.” According to Gregor, this starts in our teens and in his lecture, From Table to Able, he references studies that show lumbar disc degradation as early as age eleven in those that eat the standard american diet. Our modern western medical system looks to pills to solve our health problems because our society has collectively perceived the adoption of a healthy diet and lifestyle to be too difficult to achieve. With the popularity of viagara, apparently, we don’t want to eat healthy, even to
achieve an erection. What is interesting is that a male’s ability to obtain an erection depends on the body’s ability to circulate blood. Impotence is a symptom of atherosclerosis. It all stems from the same disease, the clogging of our body’s circulation system. And since abdominal obesity aka beer/pot belly has now been linked to high levels of estrogen in our diet, it has never been so manly to sit down for a big greasy meal. A pot bellied man who is impotent is way too normal. If this rubs you the wrong way, step back and consider that this is completely within your power to change. People do it every day and there is no shame in renewing your enthusiasm for life, healthy functional life.Impotence is a serious issue we need to stop sweeping under the bed. 0039

WELL RESTED by Angie Cummings CAffEINE AND SLEEp As I was standing in line at the award winning Tim Horton’s this morning in Sussex, I saw many familiar faces. We queue up every morning for what many call the “nectar of the gods”- coffee. We enjoy the heat of the drink, the aroma, even the comradery of having a cup of Joe and chatting with friends. But the real draw of coffee, and the reason we are all at this coffee shop so early is for the caffeine jolt that we are eagerly anticipating. The discovery of coffee is attributed to a 13th century goatherder in the highlands of Ethiopia who noticed that when his goats ate these particular berries, the goats became very spirited and would not go to sleep. The monks at the nearby monastery began to make a drink from the berries and it kept them awake for many hours of evening prayer. By the 15th century the coffee trees were being cultivated in the Arab
countries and were becoming a valuable trade commodity. Coffee’s use spread to Europe and it was not long before most cultures were trading and using coffee as a major part of their economy and diet. The most expensive coffee in the world is produced in Indonesia. A cat like creature called Civet searches in the woods for the very ripest berries on the forest floor. It eats the berries but cannot digest to seeds so they come out the other end of the Civet whole. These seeds are sifted out of the cat’s poop, rinsed and dried. You can pick up a pound of this luxury item for $635/ lb, or $80/cup (by appointment only, cream and sugar not included). I Think I’ll pass. It was of course the caffeine in the coffee berries that kept the goats and the monks in Ethiopia awake. The average North American consumes about 200 mg of caffeine a day and it comes from many sources including coffee, tea, energy drinks, chocolate and even some
medications. So how much caffeine is in your morning drink? Well, a small coffee has about 100 mg of caffeine. A small tea has 50 mg. Your decaf coffee still has 6-15 mg in it. So how about that extra-large black that I drank this morning? 240 mg of caffeine. Yikes! It appears that morning coffee does not affect your sleep at night, but coffee taken in the afternoon does. Caffeine can stay in your system up to 11 hours after ingestion, so your afternoon coffee pick me up may be affecting your quality of sleep or causing insomnia. So enjoy your morning coffee, but after lunch switch to something a little less jitter inducing like water. You’ll sleep much better for it! 0046 Angie Cummings, BSc RRT, Sussex Sleep Clinic

mUSINGS by Debbie Hickey TO BE A KID AGAIN We recently spent a few days in PEI with our daughter and 8 year old granddaughter. It is SO much more convenient to get there with the bridge. No more sitting in line at the ferry terminal for hours and hours in the hot sun, trying to keep two antsy kids entertained in the days before mobile electronic toys. Now it could even be a day-trip. The kid had a blast! Of course the visit entailed multiple visits to the two Cavendish theme parks, lots of eating and swimming daily . . . how could she not? She loves the water, loves mussels and several straight days of Grumpy time just puts the icing on the cake. Soon enough she will no doubt consider herself too old for family vacations, so we enjoy it while we can. This year she even enticed her mother to go on the ferris wheel with
her, and someday she will realize what a sacrifice that was. The things we do for our kids! But they both LOVE the roller coaster and I can recognize that scream anywhere! We followed up vacation with (what else) school shopping. Again, the kid had a ball choosing her new “stuff ”. We have had to stash it at my house to keep it all together as she would have it out of the bookbag to admire several times every day if we did not. She can’t wait for school to start. I too was always eager to get back to school. Summer’s lazy days eventually lose their appeal and I would find myself more than ready to get back into learning mode . . . and to see the friends I had not seen since June of course. I find it sad when I hear of young children who dread going to school. Learning should be exciting, an
adventure, a chance to open new doors with new ideas and new perspectives. Instead, for many, it is only a drudge, or worse, a torture. How do we manage to so quickly extinguish the child’s natural enthusiasm for learning? Is it because as adults we ourselves have forgotten? “The important thing is not so much that every child should be taught, as that every child should be given the wish to learn.” ~John Lubbock. 0002
