A study in the United States found 82 per cent of PTSD sufferers reported a reduction in symptoms after being paired with a dog. Forty per cent were able to reduce their use of medication. That’s a lot of healing. Gray said it was an easy decision to throw the support of the local 15-member group — 3rd C.A.V. Groningen Unit — to Citadel. “Citadel was already known to us because of some CAV units in Alberta and B.C. Those units were already doing some support with Citadel. We got word that Citadel had set up in Saskatoon. It made sense to me that it was the group to jump behind.” Odin is McPhee’s second dog.

is wonderful,” she said. McPhee is responsible for basic training of service dogs. She is required to devote five hours a week to Odin’s training. That is when she is on the clock. That is nowhere near the amount of time the two spend together. McPhee got involved in the program through the Saskatoon Kennel and Obedience Club. She first trained a mastiff named Winston who became a certified therapy dog. “I enjoyed that so much going to seniors homes, and seeing how they reacted to the dog was fabulous.” Through a club contact, McPhee found out about Citadel program and the need for trainers in Saskatoon. McPhee put her hand up. (Continued on page 4)

Olympic memories Johnny Sands (left) skated at the 1956 and 1960 Olympics, while Craig Mackay skated in 1948 and 1952 (Photo by Cam Hutchinson)

Speed skating was a lot different in the old days

ife in Canada’s speed skating fast lanes has changed dramatically in the last 60 to 75 years. Craig Mackay was a Canadian champion when the people of Saskatoon rallied around him to raise $1,600 so he could attend the 1948 Winter Olympics at St. Moritz, Switzerland. He later trained at his own expense for a year in Norway so he could qualify for the 1952 Olympics in Oslo. Johnny Sands was a Canadian champion chosen to go to the 1956 Winter Olympics at Cortina D’Ampezzo in Italy. To make the trip possible, his friends at Robin Hood Mill chipped in money to cover two weeks of lost wages and give him some spending money. He also skated at the 1960 Winter Olympics in Squaw Valley, Calif. Mackay, now 87, and Sands, now 81, were together again for a weekend in April, attending the People annual Saskatoon Lions Speed Skating Club’s awards dinner. Mackay seldom misses the awards dinner; Sands travels from Mississauga, Ont., virtually every spring for the event. They like to see Canada’s rising stars, who operate under a system which is far different from the days when they grew up. Members on Canada’s national team now

NED POWERS

Craig Mackay (far right) skating outdoors at St.Moritz (Photo Supplied) get up to $24,000 in annual training grants, travel often (and always on a free ride), get the best equipment, have professional coaches and support staff, and skate on Olympic-sized ovals virtually 10 months of the year. There’s no resentment from Mackay and Sands, because they know that’s what Canada has to do to keep up with international rivals. Mackay won the three-mile race at the Canadian championships in Sudbury in 1947 to gain his first trip to the Olympics. His normal seasons on skates wouldn’t start until the freeze-up of natural ice, even in Olympic years. “We raised a lot of our own money because the budget for the entire Canadian team at the 1948 Olympics was only $130,000. Most of our Saskatoon fundraising came from 50-cent donations. We didn’t really have uniforms. I wore a patched-up uniform that my coach Clarence Downey once had. I travelled to New York by train, five

days across the Atlantic on the Queen Elizabeth, and then more train rides to Switzerland,” said Mackay. “There were four (Canadians) in speed skating. If you didn’t get to skate early in the day, the ice got softer and more challenging. In most events, there was half a second between first place and ninth place. “The hockey rink was situated in the middle of the ice surface. It had square corners. We got our gold medals from the RCAF hockey team and from Barbara Ann Scott in figure skating,” said Mackay, who fell into a snowbank in the 500 metres, was 14th in the 5,000 metres and 13th in the 10,000. In 1950 he paid his own way to Hamar, Norway, where he did farm chores in the morning, skated in the afternoon, then did more chores after supper — all winter long. But he enjoyed the benefits of skating on Wednesdays and the weekends, sometimes against international skaters. By 1952 the Canadian Olympic team travelled to Oslo by plane. But just like four years earlier, the skating was on natural ice and outdoors. He skated in all four events — his best finish being 15th in 500 metres. Canada gained a bronze medal from Winnipeg’s Gordon Audley. Sands qualified for the 1956 Olympics after the 1955 trials were held at Saskatoon’s Griffiths Stadium, where the track surface was flooded to make the ice. “Our team management decided that because of the altitude in Italy we should spend five weeks there. The altitude at Cortina was 12,000 feet above sea level. It took some adjusting. I was working at Robin Hood at the time, and the best they would allow was a three-week holiday period. Some of the employees raised enough money to cover my wages for the other two weeks and gave me some spending money,” said Sands. “In Italy the ice was like a floating island, flooded with hot water. It was considered the second fastest ice in the world at the time. The fastest was in Russia, where they were skating 40.2 seconds in 500 metres. They were all members of the Russian army and probably got sent to Siberia if they didn’t win. When they were setting their world records on their home ice, they were always racing between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. when the conditions were perfect.” Sands skated 42.7 seconds the week before the Olympics, but fell in Italy. By the time he qualified for the 1956 Olympics, Sands had moved to Montreal, where a sports-writing friend, Milt Dunnell, arranged for him to skate every morning (except Thursdays) at the Montreal Forum, home of the Canadiens. Sands skated 42.8 seconds for 28th place in the 500 metres at Squaw Valley, “where the big difference was the first use of artificial ice.” Mackay and Sands were the first of the Saskatoon products to qualify for the Olympics in speed skating. “My sister, Henrietta, was one of the first four members of the Lions club, and she suggested I give it a try. Clarence Downey took me down to Wilk’s Cycle and bought me a $10 pair of CCM skates, and I was on my way,” said Mackay. Sands said he was first attracted to skating in 1946. “I raced for the first time in the city championships on a very cold night on hockey skates for Mayfair school. I saved money from my paper route and paid $4.50 to buy speedskating skates from a shoe repair shop on 20th Street.” It’s difficult to make comparisons between skaters from generations far part. But Mackay said, “It would be wonderful to have competed at the Calgary oval, where the temperatures of the ice and the air are controlled, and there aren’t any wind factors. Less air to push, less water to push.”

I interviewed a cheerleader without her knowing it

(Continued from page 2) Me: (laughing) Good one. Henry is playing for the Ottawa RedBlacks now. Melanie: What kind of name is that? Me: Please let me ask the questions. Me again: Congratulations on the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl. It must have been exciting. Melanie: That wasn’t a question. Me: I promised myself I wouldn’t ask any questions that could be misconstrued as being sexist. We have a pretty militant feminist fraternity in our community. I

don’t need anybody picketing outside my home or office. Melanie: I am surprised you have controlled yourself for this long. Me: Let me share a short feminism story. I have a friend who graduated with a degree in women’s studies. She said her father wasn’t particularly impressed. “Who are you going to call when your car breaks down?” he asked her. “A man, that’s who,” he said. (laughing) Melanie: Why do you find that funny?

Me: It’s the way she tells the story. Great delivery. Melanie: Let’s get it over with. Ask away about outfits, dating and augmentation. Me: I have already told you about our feminist brotherhood. What kind of person do you think I am? Melanie: A man. Are you going to the Man Show? Me: Of course. ***** Thank you to those that wrote or called to say they liked, read or could relate to my piece on anxiety. I knew I wasn’t alone.

Going to a vet

Companion dogs just what the doctor ordered for PTSD (Continued from page 1) “That’s how I became involved.” Julia Price, a Saskatoon-based volunteer for Citadel, is a big believer in the program. “I started seeing things on television about dogs being trained in the U.S. to work with veterans,” she said. “And I thought it was just a fantastic idea.” Price and McPhee crossed paths at a seniors’ home where Winston was snuggling up to some elderly folks. The two ran into each other again at an event at Cowtown. “I offered to help in any way I could,” Price said. “I think (Citadel) is fantastic because you can rescue dogs and save another person’s life essentially.” McPhee was introduced to Odin through the kennel club. “He was going to be a breeding dog for one of the kennels, but he didn’t meet the qualifications for retrieving. But he had all the other qualifications: temperament, health. … That’s how I got him. “Oscar, my first (first) dog, came from Kijiji. He was rescued. You go through so many dogs because they have to have such a strict temperament, have to be friendly and can have absolutely no prey drive whatsoever. They can’t chase squirrels or cats or anything.” She said dogs that are trying to help a veteran control stress can’t be creating it. “There is a bunch of criteria we have to follow when we are assessing the dogs to make sure they are going to fit into the proper temperament.” Dogs typically stay with their first trainers for four to six months. Odin’s next stop will be with his veteran. There is no charge to the veteran for the dog. It is estimated approximately $4,000 to $5,000 is needed to train each dog. “They have to learn to work together,” McPhee said of Odin joining forces with his vet. “Within

Citadel we have a master trainer. She does all of the certification. When you think the pair is ready to be certified, she goes out and gives them a test.” The 3rd C.A.V. Groningen Unit in Saskatoon is holding a fundraising steak night on April 29 at 6 p.m. at Crackers on Pinehouse Drive. The cost is $20. It is the first time the unit is going it alone with a fundraiser. “Before, we would participate in other organizations events,” Gray said. “For example poker runs for the Legion or the Wounded Warrior ride or the Ride for Dads. We support existing events.” He said the goal of the unit is to raise enough money this summer to cover the cost of training one dog. “We are starting with a one-dog goal and going from there.” Price said the money will do wonderful things for Citadel. “We have seen way too many suicides,” she said. “You question whether that person could have benefitted from more support. We feel dogs are way better than some other (services). Even if a person is under psychiatric care and counselling, they can’t always reach that person when they need them the most.” McPhee said she will miss Odin when he leaves her home, but she is happy he is going to help somebody in need of a good face wash now and again. “It is worth it. I love working with the dogs. They are helping people so much; it is just fantastic. That’s one thing about dogs, they have unconditional love. If people don’t understand what is going on with you, the dog is always going to be there … always there for them.” For more information on the 3rd C.A.V. visit 3rdcavgroningen.org.

Perhaps you can tell me how you feel this applies to dating in today’s day and age. — Guy Instant World Family dinner is on the table Add hot water and stir No need to peel or brew anymore Home gardens are not required

A world of Microwave and ATM Were all of these the start of a new beginning Or the beginning of the end? Dear Guy, How true this is. We do live in a very fast-paced society where we definitely need to force ourselves to take time to appreciate the simple things. Dating has turned into electronic communications, starting online and carrying on via text messaging and the Internet. I insist my clients take the time to have actual communication and avoid the electronic methods

of getting to know one another. Real communication is truly the only way two people can actually connect with one another. It is so important that people wanting to learn about others take the time to get to know them in person. Our society has programmed too many of us to expect instant results and instant gratification. Relationships require true, real and actual effort. (I will be in Saskatoon interviewing new clients from April 22-25. Call now to book your appointment. You can reach me at 1-204-888-1529)

There’s an extension in OpenSSL called SW10128.D21 Sheri The Heartbleed bug isn’t a virus and it wasn’t — apparently — written with malice in mind. It was a programming mistake made in some software called OpenSSL, versions 1.0.1 through to 1.0.1f. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is the basic way information is encrypted on the Internet so that nobody can eavesdrop on you. It provides that security for applications we all use every day: email, instant messaging, some Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and web access.

According to David Chartier, CEO of Codenomicon, “Herrala thought it was fitting to call it Heartbleed because it was bleeding out the important information from the memory.” That’s the bad news. The really bad news is that because the bug leaves no trace, it’s going to take a long time to find and fix it — although apparently the fix is pretty easy. The good news is that it’s only a problem on servers using those particular versions of OpenSSL. Meanwhile users like you and me are asking the same question: Should I change my passwords? Not yet. But don’t change them until you get notification from websites you visit. The bug has to be fixed before changing passwords will help you, or else you end up giving the bad guys your new passwords and information. Users will start seeing multi-level password access appearing on websites they frequent for things like banking, for example. You’ll have to change your user-

Hopefully there isn’t too much pain first though. TO SUM IT UP: Heartbleed is definitely a big deal, and we should be worried. Canadian banks say they’re not affected by the bug, nor are airlines and some major retailers. So that’s promising. Mashable, a popular online site, has a list you might find helpful to tell whether your favourite site is compromised or not. You can access it at: http://mashable. com/2014/04/09/heartbleed-bug-websitesaffected/?utm_cid=mash-com-Tw-mainlink. It certainly looks like now’s the time for all of us to get a lot more careful about how we use the Internet. And how we protect our private information.

Hnatyshyn column misses the mark

“There is no excuse for not having ID” Elaine Hnatyshyn writes in her defence of the co-called Fair Elections Act, repeating Minister Pierre Poilievre’s talking point that all the voter needs is to bring some ID and everything would be hunky dory. Vouching is therefore not necessary and should be abolished, she argues, chastising the Bill’s opponents for making it an issue. But there is also no excuse for Ms. Hnatyshyn not to know how our voting system works. She apparently does not realize that voting has become extremely difficult ever since the 2008 introduction of tough voter ID requirements, which demand an ID with a street address. You can have a pocketful of valid ID — and most Canadians have some — but none that has the essential street address. And worse, if your address happens to be a box number, rural route or general delivery, as is the case with Saskatchewan’s rural population, First Nations included, that won’t be acceptable either. In these cases you have to find “something else” to vote with, but that is easier said than done. Thus Mr. Poilievre’s famous “39 options” for voter ID, which Ms. Hnatyshyn promotes, on closer examination often disappears into thin air, not providing the required street address or not being available to the voter. That is why in the 2011 election, over 120,000 Canadians relied on vouching or used the voter information card as their secondary ID. Those who couldn’t find anyone to vouch for them could not vote, and their numbers are legion. This was documented in a post-2008 election survey in which nearly five per cent of 13.7 million voters said “they didn’t vote because they lacked proper documentation.” Vouching and the voter information card, both to be abolished in the act, are not luxuries required by lazy voters who don’t care enough to have ID, but a necessity for the hundreds of thousands who cannot otherwise vote. The real solution would, of course, be returning to our world-class door-to-door voter enumeration, which had none of the voter ID problems currently plaguing us. Marjaleena Repo

industry bids from waste-management companies. April 2012 Cosmo submits a bid detailing its intention to process the material and have a company called Emterra do the pickup. But its bid is weak and is rejected. City council awards the Saskatoon curbside recycling pickup and processing contract to Loraas Disposal. April 16, 2012 Coun. Pat Lorje springs a spontaneous eleventh-hour proposal on an exhausted city council. Proceed on the basis of Loraas handling curbside recycling for single-dwelling units, she said, but give recycling for MUDs (multi-unit dwellings, such as condos or apartments) to Cosmo. The two-year ordeal was neatly packaged into a deal that was eventually dubbed the Cosmo Compromise. A ‘no-harm-to-Cosmo’ promise is drawn up by city council, embracing MUD’s recycling as the way forward. June 2012 City council signs an MOU with Cosmo to talk about the MUD deal. October 2012 Saskatoon civic election. December 2012 Labour Minister Don Morgan has the opportunity to remove the clause allowing Cosmo to employ disabled people for free and legislate meaningful pay for meaningful productivity as part of the province’s recent overhaul of Labour Standards. He chooses not to, as per a statement he made publicly in December 2012 reiterating the alleged social benefits of programs like Cosmo. January 2013 Loraas starts curbside recycling in Saskatoon. July 2013 A sole-source contract for Cosmo and MUDs is presented to city council. “The fees proposed to be payable to Cosmo

are undoubtedly higher than what would be realized if the work were put out for public tender.” As for the door price of MUD recycling, who was going to pay for the inflated cost? Back to administration it went. February 2014 City council has cold feet. Based on a Deloitte audit, the cost of Cosmo MUD recycling is going to cost $4.66 per door, but the city can only charge the MUD owner $2.50. Those numbers result in a Cosmo Compromise Deficit MUD program costing City Hall an $870,000 deficit each year from the program moving forward, or $635,000 after some meagre revenue from Cosmo is collected. City administration insists the deficit will be covered by the Multi-Material Recycling Program (MMRP), a provincial program commencing Jan. 1, 2015. Council sent the report back to administration, again asking for it to find a backup source of funding. April 14, 2014 Council passes a motion that will see Cosmo proceed with processing MUD recycling, the cost of which will be “phasedin” to the mill rate. But 2015 programming will still rely on over $600,000 in MMRP funding, a dollar figure that has never been clarified or produced by anyone. Comment Ladies and gentlemen, meet your first taxpayer-funded municipal charity. While council did finally green-light Cosmo MUD recycling, and this saga may finally end, it will only open a new chapter for a publicly propped charity whose core ideology has been a matter of dispute for 40 years. The beauty of all this, however, is that if MMRP funding falls flat, and the taxpayer is forced to pay for Cosmo — as opposed to donating to the charity of their choice — the timing will likely fall much closer to an election year.

Wood said. Students who become nutritionists or dieticians might find ways to use gardening to get their clients to embrace healthier diets. That’s something that Woods does too. The self-confessed “vegetable hoarder” regularly dips into his pantry and brings dishes to class. “I make chana masala for my students, and I tell them the curried chickpeas are part of my one-mile diet,” Wood says. “The spices are imported, but the chickpeas, tomatoes, garlic and onions are grown on a plot within one mile of campus.” Wood always slips some fresh (and local) kale into the traditional Indian dish because along with spinach “it’s one of the two biggies when it comes to nutrients per unit area.” Wood said it’s hard to know how students will put this learning experience to use, as urban food production is still in its infancy. At this point it’s all about planting seeds in creative minds. “It’s a different way of looking at education,” he said. “But it’s a tasty way of education too.”

“W

hy do you keep your carrots in the ground?” The question, coming from the young son of Grant Wood’s friends, drove home a modern paradox: soaring interest in how food is produced, but plunging numbers of people who actually know how to grow it. “He’s not the only one,” said Wood, an assistant professor in the College of Agriculture and Bioresources. “At a garden show, we put up a sign that said ‘vegetables need a minimum of eight hours of direct sunlight a day.’ I was amazed at the number of young people who were saying things

like ‘Oh, that’s why the garden didn’t grow under the spruce tree.’” The experiences proved to be the impetus for Wood’s Urban Food Production course at the University of Saskatchewan. Launched in 2011 with 25 students, it grew to 40 in its second year and has reached 90 students for this year. Of course grandma didn’t need a university course to learn how to garden, but Wood has a more ambitious goal for his course, which draws students from four different colleges. The course is a deliberate mash-up of ideas drawn from many disciplines. The production part ranges from the nutritional needs of crops and integrated pest man-

agement to proper storage of the harvest and how that affects nutrient levels. The section on finding suitable plots of land in the city leads into a look at how food production can influence urban design, and why community building is critical to growing food in a city. Wood initially considered calling his course “urban agriculture.” But after talking to his kids and their friends, he realized most young urbanites associate the words agriculture and farming with tractors and the like. Wood said he wants his students to be open-minded and create their own vision of what urban food production might look like. Those with an entrepreneurial bent are encouraged to think about how they might build a business model around urban food production. Would you partner with restaurants? Use a smartphone app to match customers with what’s available this week? Or maybe combine your urban farm with a gourmet food truck? Those heading back to the family farm might be better positioned to capitalize on niche opportunities if they learn to think of food from the end-user’s point of view,

Born and bread in Saskatchewan

Tammy Robert Saskatoon Express

n inherent desire to return to their prairie roots brought Bryn Rawlyk, his wife, Beth Cote, and their three young sons back to Saskatoon to open their new business: The Night Oven Bakery. “My wife and I are both originally from Saskatchewan,” said Rawlyk. “I grew up in Saskatoon and on a farm outside of Saskatoon. She grew up in Regina. We have worked and lived in Montreal and Vancouver, where I worked making food, desserts and breads in various kitchens, restaurants and bakeries.” During the couple’s last year in Montreal, when their middle son was an infant, Cote and Rawlyk were presented with the opportunity to buy into an existing coffee shop that had the kitchen capacity for breads and pastries. “As soon as we started to seriously discuss that possibility, it became clear to us that we weren’t ready to permanently settle so far from the prairies,” explained Rawlyk. “It was then that we decided we wanted to have a neighbourhood bakery. But we wanted it to be where we both

still felt was home — in Saskatchewan. We wanted our sons to grow up with the wealth of family and connection to the land that we had growing up.” After their third son was born in Vancouver, Rawlyk left his baking job to become a stay-at-home parent. It was during this time that he began seriously planning for what is now Saskatoon’s The Night Oven Bakery, located downtown at 629-B First Avenue North. Rawlyk was heavily involved in designing and constructing the bakery, even designing the millstones he uses to grind the flour. He also built the brick wood-fired oven. “Well there isn’t exactly a company you can call up to build that sort of equipment for you,” said Rawlyk. “After a lot of research and consulting other bakers — including Cliff Lier at Fol Epi in Victoria, Andrew Heyn at Elmore Mountain Bread in Vermont — we decided to take on the task ourselves. “It is nice to work in a space that your hands have built. I grew up seeing grains grown all around me; right out my back door. But I never had the opportunity to see that grain turned into bread: the whole process. Having a mill that can do

this in the bakery completes that process for me. The masonry oven is a very real symbol of community to me. The heat, the smell of the wood fire mingling with freshly baked bread — I find them comforting. And they draw people together.” If building, opening and managing a bakery sounds daunting, stone-grinding the flour sounds downright difficult. Rawlyk said it’s not nearly as complicated as you might think, and even more rewarding. “With the right equipment in place, it is quite simple to mill flour,” said Rawlyk. “It is something that people have been doing for generations. What can become difficult is getting an exact and consistent final product for the breads. For me it has been a process of experimenting with moisture levels in order to produce the flour that will work best for the kinds of breads I want to make.” Rawlyk relishes the process of obtaining the grain directly from the farmer and seeing it through to the final baked product. “One of the things that drew me to the process of making bread is its simplicity,” he said. “It’s really just grain, water and salt. All of the breads we make have their

roots in those three ingredients. I love the variety that can be made from such simple beginnings.” He considers the use of a wood-fire an extension of that simplicity. And the brick oven gives the bread a unique crust that he finds particularly satisfying. While Rawlyk is clearly right where he belongs, he once considered travelling down a rather different path. “I studied math at McGill (University) while in Montreal,” he said. “At that level of study, it was less about numbers and arithmetic and more about systems that work on basic, guiding principles. I find a similar kind of joy in bread-making, which consists of basic principles that can be added to and expanded upon, but are ultimately still based on simple building blocks: flour, water and salt.” The Night Oven Bakery is truly a family affair, reflecting Rawlyk’s passion for feeding a crowd. Rows of handmade baguettes, whole wheat and rye loaves, croissants and delicate pastries line the shelves, crafted with locally sourced, organic ingredients. Fair-trade coffees and teas are also available, as are a few tables if sitting back and relaxing is on your agenda. “Having built a nine-foot dome to bake bread, I love to bake giant rustic loaves of bread. I’m excited for picnic season,” he said. “I love taking a few ingredients — tomatoes, a bit of cheese, maybe a cured meat and a big loaf of bread — out for a picnic and breaking into it to make sandwiches or just to share and eat with our family and friends. There is something special to me about the big loaves: like they are made for sharing.” The future is wide open for The Night Oven Bakery, which gets its name from the long hours and late night or early morning start to Rawlyk’s day, ensuring the bakery’s bread baskets are full when the doors open. “So far we’re taking each day and each week as it comes,” he said. “I can definitely say I plan to see the sun rise nearly every day for the next while. That’s for sure.” Rawlyk and Cote hope to see The Night Oven Bakery become a neighbourhood gathering place. “A place where people come together to meet, enjoy a nice cup of coffee, maybe a pastry or a treat, and pick up their bread for the next couple of days,” said Rawlyk. “We will be introducing quick breakfast and lunch options in the coming months.” The Night Oven Bakery 629-B 1st Avenue North Open Tuesday through Friday 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. www.thenightoven.ca

I certainly appreciate the frustration. There is nothing worse than seeing a street sweeper come down the street on Monday. People say, “Boy that looks nice. That looks really nice. Is this ever great.” And on Wednesday they come and clean the boulevards. You’re going, “What just happened?” The administration is definitely trying to do a better job of communicating with its different departments. And with the larger investment the citizens of Saskatoon have made in their roadways, I’m hoping that we will have a better result. (Have a question for Mayor Atchison?

Other good barbeque accompaniments are a fresh vegetable tray with dip, or a fresh fruit tray. And, don’t forget: Prairie Meats has delicious desserts made in-store to complete your barbeque feast. A jumbleberry crumble that features saskatoons, strawberries and blueberries would be a perfect way to end your barbeque.

SHE

Fashioning a family tradition

Erin Gray Express Fashion Editor

amily is at the heart of SHE Modelling Agency and School of Personal Development’s success. Not only is the agency operated by the mother-daughter duo of Mary and Lori Obrodovich, SHE is now seeing second-generation models coming through its doors. It’s no surprise that after 30 years in business in Saskatoon, the sons and daughters of some of SHE’s models are now being represented by the agency. “I think it’s very neat that mothers who modelled at SHE many years ago now have children who model here,” Obrodovich said. She attributes the wave of second-generation models to the positive experience their moms had with SHE. “The moms want to share those experiences with their daughters,” she said. Arna Selkirk, a SHE model, credits the agency for helping her gain confidence as a teenager. “I went travelling to Japan with Mary. And she took care of me like she was my

own mother. SHE (Modelling) gave me great independence. I feel really proud that I started out at 14 years old with Mary, and now my daughters are modelling (with SHE). That makes me happy,” said Selkirk. Her daughters are Hailey, 14, and Kailin, 11. Managing several members from one family comes with challenges. Obrodovich said she occasionally sees family resemblance between the moms and daughters so clearly, it leads to a faux pas. “The daughters never appreciate me calling them by their moms’ names,” she said with a laugh. To celebrate Mother’s Day and the agency’s mother and daughter models, SHE Modelling is hosting a Mother’s Day Tea Trade & Fashion Show on Sunday, May 4, at the Hilton Garden Inn. The show will feature the latest in women’s health and beauty — and of course, fashions modelled by mothers and daughters. Tickets are available at the door or at www.picatic.com/mothers-day-tea, with a portion of the proceeds from the show supporting the Canadian Cancer Society.

Iron is a vital part of haemoglobin (a red protein in the blood), which takes oxygen from the lungs to your body’s cells. It is also part of key enzymes that create your energy and metabolism. You must have iron to keep your immune system healthy. The blackstrap molasses and raisins in this recipe are iron-rich foods. Since children may not like eating red meat, dark leafy greens, oysters or beans, this is one way to sneak a little iron into their diet. Serve iron-rich foods with a vitamin C-rich food to better absorb the iron.

There was the simplicity and poignancy associated with the song Philadelphia Freedom and a New York backdrop to Mona Lisa and the Mad Hatters. There was a swirling, twirling effect of a dancer attached to the presentation of Tiny Dancer. There were reflections of John Lennon and Elton John’s own milestones in Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, which were history lessons in their own way. Among the many stars onstage were Davey Johnstone (his longtime guitarist), Ray JW11473.D21 James

Cooper (an extraordinary percussionist), as well as a bassist, a keyboardist, two cellists and four singers. Among the singers was Tata Vega, who is also being seen nowadays in an Oscar-winning documentary, Twenty Feet From Stardom, and Rose Stone, who many years ago was a co-founder of Sly and The Family Stone. Always present were monuments of regal dogs and four rockets inserted into the velour drapes on each side of the stage.

Persephone Theatre

Travel

Production will make you laugh

Tammy Robert Saskatoon Express

anadian actor Robert Moloney is happy to be back at Saskatoon’s Persephone Theatre, taking on a role that audiences will find a lot of fun. Leading Ladies, a comedy written by Ken Ludwig, tells the story of Jack and Leo, two down-on-theirluck Shakespearean actors who come up with a scheme to refinance their future. “It’s a farce; it’s about two men who see an opportunity to swindle a millionaire out of her inheritance by posing as her long-lost relatives,” said Moloney, who plays Leo Clark. “He’s ambitious, charming, adventurous, and out of desperation he grasps this opportunity. “When we meet the characters they have no money, so Leo sees this as a way to get himself and his partner Jack back on his feet. He’s a romantic. In his heart he’s a good person. He doesn’t see that he’s hurting anybody, because this woman has been searching for her relatives for months. So he comes up with the idea to pose as these relatives, which becomes a problem when he falls in love.” Moloney, who lives in Vancouver, has previously appeared at Persephone in the role of Pip in Great Expectations. His film credits include the upcoming Harrison Ford movie The Age of Adaline. His television career includes shows such as Motive, Almost Human and Bates Motel. “I knew Del (Surjik) from his days

in Vancouver; we’ve worked together before,” said Moloney of Persephone’s artistic director. “I was contacted to see if I wanted to do this play. It looked like it was going to be a lot of fun. I liked the group. It’s a comedy, and it’s fun to make people laugh.” Wearing women’s clothing is a big part of Moloney’s performance. “It’s a lot of fun. The high heels were very painful to break in, but they’re working now,” Moloney said with a laugh. “I’m not really looking forward to the bras and the wigs, but it’s all to make the audience laugh. And for that it’s worth it. “It’s a lot of mayhem, yet this play is really well crafted,” said Moloney. “The writer steals from the best Shakespeare plays, some of the best farces out there in respect to the elements of changing identity, miscommunication, failed expectations and all that kind of stuff that farces are famous for.” Moloney wants Saskatoon audiences to know one thing. “They’re just going to have a great time,” he said. “This is one of those plays that I would encourage anybody to come see. It’s not difficult to understand, it’s a lot of fun and it’s family friendly. I think ‘damn’ is the strongest word that’s used. “It’s got a real heart to it as well.” Leading Ladies by Ken Ludwig April 23 to May 11 Tuesday through Sunday at 8 p.m. Matinee: Sundays at 2 p.m. and Wednesday April 30 at 2 p.m. Rawlco Radio Hall

Caribbean wonderful in summer too By Arthur Frommer

hough spring, summer and early fall are decidedly off-season in the Caribbean, it’s surprising to note how many North Americans vacation there year-round. The biggest problem they face is choice: Among dozens of islands, which one should they visit? Here are a few notable selections: ***** Aruba is known for its beaches and casinos. It has vast expanses of granulated white sand off bathtub-warm waters, all of it serviced by high-rise hotels featuring giant casinos that are active at night and until early morning. ***** Bonaire is for scuba divers, which is its main activity, offered by numerous instructors and facilities. If you’ve ever wanted to experience the world 20 metres below sea level, you’ll quickly arrange to do so here by simply enrolling in any of dozen major schools or programs. ***** Puerto Rico is for an immersion into the world of Hispanic culture and history. An entire Latin culture is on display here, in countless museums, wellpreserved forts, cities (“Old San Juan”) built by the Spanish conquistadors and excellent restaurants featuring ethnic cuisine. Though it has its share of beaches and sea sports, its highlight is this experience of Spanish-speaking life. ***** Jamaica is for nightlife. Though its visitors will claim they come here for its beaches and sea sports, they really come alive in the evening, when reggae is performed and the night is filled with its pulsating rhythms. Nearly every resort offers an evening filled with dancing and bands.

***** St. Lucia is for honeymoons. Its elegant hotels are mainly along cliffs, well-spaced, never dominated by crowds, quiet and romantic, and with a surprisingly high level of cuisine owing to the French occupation of several centuries ago. Meals are occasions for delight, and couples dance to melodic sounds between courses. ***** The Dominican Republic is for budget-minded vacationers. Its hotels (mainly in Punta Cana and Puerto Plata) are almost always all-inclusive with the cost of package vacations among the lowest in the Caribbean. Very few visitors venture outside the premises of their all-inclusive havens, and the big cities are rarely explored by foreign tourists. ***** Curacao is for the flavour of Europe. Its capital city of Willemstad is consciously Dutch in appearance; its restaurants are mainly European in dishes and flavors; its main touristic attractions are serious museums of history (an important slavery museum) and nature, and one main edifice is the oldest synagogue of the western hemisphere. Though there are halfway-decent beaches for sunning and swimming (not a main selling point), a better activity here is sightseeing. (c) 2014 by Arthur Frommer Distributed by King Features Syndicate

Up to your ears with critters eating corn?

Dear Reena, How do I prevent life’s little critters from feasting on my corn? — Lindsay Dear Lindsay, To keep birds and small animals from eating corn, secure thin, dark-coloured string or wire in a zigzag pattern across the bed. The string should be about three centimetres above ground level. Not being able to walk properly will frustrate the birds and encourage them to leave. Also keep birds away from the garden by placing a pinwheel nearby. Or attach aluminum Household foil strips to a stake. If you happen to have an Solutions artificial owl lying around the yard, place it high SS50565.D21 James in the garden to deter feather folk.

Dear Reena, We live in the country and love to watch and feed wild birds. We have a journal and keep track of the types of birds that visit our yard each year. Can you give us a tip on storing lots of bird seed? We buy it in large plastic bags that tend to tip over and make a mess on the garage floor. — Lawrence Dear Lawrence, Store birdseed in a plastic 20-gallon garbage can (with or without wheels). This is inexpensive and holds more than a 50-pound bag of seed. It is fairly easy to carry because of the handles, and it comes with a lid. It makes for quick filling, less mess and less time.

REENA NERBAS

Fabulous Tips of the Week: l Rub a shelled walnut over furniture to hide scratches on wood furniture. — Kyah l A tackle box works well for storing girl hairclips and elastics. The baubles and bands go in the small upper trays and brushes/product/etc. in the larger bottom part. And the whole thing can be stashed in a cabinet or drawer. To keep ponytail holders even more organized, purchase one of those binder rings from your nearby office supply store. — Mertle I enjoy your questions and tips; keep them coming. Missed a column?

Once they are gone, they’re gone.” Ultimately, Meridian Development bought the KG. The result was a rejuvenation of an iconic treasure. There was no stipulation about preserving the existing structure, but an adaptive reuse strategy proved well-founded. As Saskatoon continues to grow, developers and property owners have tough choices in front of them. With adaptive reuse, contractors have to work within the confines of existing buildings, which sometimes can result in an inefficient use of the building. But with new construction, builders have more options in materials and dimensions. Over 100 years ago the King George Hotel was called the jewel in Saskatoon’s crown. It was erected to meet the demands of a booming population and budding economy. Today, as Saskatoon continues to blossom, the refurbished KG is a testament to smart growth in the new millennium.

King George Hotel

A jewel in city’s crown lives on

By Lucas Richert

en years ago heritage advocates and downtown property owners worried that Saskatoon had seen the last of the historic King George Hotel. Seemingly headed for demolition, the KG needed to be retrofitted and updated. Now the KG represents another fine example of adaptive reuse, which refers to the process of reusing an old site or building. The KG’s transformation was anything but straightforward. Built during the boom in 1911 at the corner of 23rd Street and Second Avenue, the King George was constructed using classic Gothic architecture. The exterior terracotta brick was trimmed with stone, while gargoyles watched as the streetcars passed by. Rooms could cost as little as $1.50

By Susan Kesler artina is a busy single mom with two young children. When I met her in January she was attending school full time and working on weekends. She has since successfully finished her course and is thrilled with her work placement and her updated business look. She has had long hair for many years, and she was ready for a change. Since Martina does not usually wear makeup, I kept her look natural and easy for her to replicate. Her eyes are gorgeous and really stand out with very little eye makeup. I used taupe eye shadow, a soft black eye liner on the top lid and a tiny bit of brown shadow as liner under her bottom lashes. I did not join the upper and lower liners at the outside corner of her eyes — that makes eyes appear smaller. The finishing touch was black mascara. With the addition of some natural-looking blush and a neutral lipstick, she looks terrific and not overdone. Martina has very healthy hair. We shortened it, added bangs and pulled it back to show off her beautiful face. Her new hairstyle updates her look. And it’s long enough that she can still wear it in a ponytail or clipped up for her busy lifestyle.

per day. Patrons had access to unique services, including telegraphs, private telephone rooms and the city’s first elevator. In the early 1960s the KG had a cool Mad Men aesthetic. And in 1962 the KG Parkade was added, thus providing another novel service: sheltered parking. By 1964 the King George’s exterior was remodelled with ceramic tiles replacing the traditional brick. Thereafter, the building began to decline. A series of fires and other incidents damaged the building. In 1999 roughly 200 out-of-town students on a boozefuelled rampage trashed the hotel. In 2000 Saskatoon’s fire service issued what’s called a “repair or demolish” order. It was a sad turn of events when the King George said goodbye to its last guest in 2003. Once considered an

It became a boarded-up blight in the downtown: a decayed and crumbling historic landmark. Such groups as Saskatchewan Architectural Heritage Society (SAHS) and Saskatoon Heritage Society put the building on “watch lists” of endangered historical structures.
