July 3 in 1987, featured two main indoor attractions at the Bessborough, some daytime and nighttime programming in a jazz and blues garden behind the hotel, two events at the Centennial Auditorium and some late-night bookings at The Bassment. About 3,300 turned out to the garden shows, helping the festival turn a profit. There was major gain in 1990 when the du Maurier Foundation came onto the radar. “Fred Davis, the CBC-TV host of Front Page Challenge, was the chair of the foundation. He was also a trumpeter. He came out and played at the morning breakfast we used to have as an opening press conference. We received a grant from du Maurier the first year, then they became the title sponsor and that was when we were first able to hire staff,” said Hill. There wasn’t a title sponsor in 1994, but SaskTel was starting to show interest with grant money. “Getting SaskTel to come on board as the title sponsor in 1995 was crucial. There was a lot of strategy involved. They did a very extensive public survey with the people who came to the festival in 1994. When they accepted the sponsorship role, that was really the culminaJim Hill and his wife, Dian, were front and centre in a gathering of long-time jazz festival friends. tion of my vision.

(Photo by Sandy Hutchinson) The title sponsorship continues to this day. Hill left Saskatoon in 1997. Mona Chappell was one of the Saskatoon music enthusiasts who really believed in Hill’s vision. “There might have never been a festival if it hadn’t been for Jim’s dream.

(Continued from page 4) thought we would be able to go in some way. We just didn’t know what way. Or where.” That’s when Richardt called a meeting of the club’s executives and unveiled his plans. Richardt, who had rented the club land in the Stonebridge/Grasswood area for the last number of years, wanted to leave his good tenants with a legacy. What he did was leave Korchinski and the others speechless. They couldn’t believe what they were hearing. He bought the club its own titled quarter section of land just off Highway 5, just a few kilometres east of the city limits. And then he added all the extras — the roadway complete with gravel, the clubhouse, covered viewing area, a tractor. The list seems endless. Duncan Campbell, a club veteran of 38 years, says it’s more than just a hobby for him. “I love aircraft. I love flying them. I love building them. I love the whole thing,” said Campbell. Rick Reid is a pilot — an actual pilot. But radio-controlled aircraft are his hobby. “Over the years, I probably have built about 100 model airplanes,” he said. Reid has spent chunks of the last 20 years putting together to scale his Convair 580, just like the one used by Norcanair. But at a recent flight night at the club’s new digs, Reid’s plane met with unexpected disaster when one of the two engines failed just after take-off. “There are two types of planes,” Reid said philosophically. “Ones that fly and ones that don’t. And this one doesn’t fly anymore.” Once the club knew they’d be moving to their new location, the club’s hierarchy took it upon themselves to talk
JW062717 James
to their new neighbours. They wanted to get their message out about how safe and respectful the club would be. Campbell says they were met with open arms by nearly everyone. “We talked to all the families in the area,” Campbell said. “We just wanted to make sure everyone is comfortable with what we are doing here.” The club is celebrating its 40th anniversary with a grand opening of the new Richardt Field and is inviting interested members of the public to come see what kind of fun they participate in. Beginning at 9 a.m. on July 2, spectators will be able to watch and try out radio-controlled planes, helicopters, drones and rockets. As well, renowned flyer Stefan Trischuk will display his full-size aerobatic display at 1:30 p.m. The public will be encouraged to try out flying some planes, too. But don’t worry about crashing what you fly. Experienced hands will be there to guide you – and save you – from any calamity. They use a “Buddy Box” which allows newbies to be at the controls of an aircraft, but can be overridden by the instructor pilot at any time to make sure it remains safe and in the air. The club, with about 70 participating members, is hoping to attract new members. “We’re hoping this event really picks up our membership,” said Campbell, adding all ages are more than welcome to try their hand at this hobby. “From eight to 80, we like to say,” said Korchinski. “All ages are welcome here.” The event is free to the public and food and drinks will be available. Head east on Highway 5 toward Humboldt for about 15 kilometres. When you hit Valley View Road, head north for slightly less than a kilometre and it’ll be on your right. You can’t miss it.
Hill, Chappell recall special moments
I
(Continued from page 3) ’d tell my friends they if they received an invitation to coffee from Jim, they were sure to get a job.” Hill always believed in blending blues, Latin music and gospel music into his programming. He found out Lyle Bolen was a blues fan. Bolen started in the blues garden, later became the co-ordinator, has been the festival president and is still active. Bob Eaton was one of the early workers and a most recent president. Hill also counts Paul Taylor, Ian Wilson and Chuck Caldwell among those who were the festival’s building blocks. Kathryn Ellis, this year’s winner of the Jim Hill Festival Builder award, was there from the beginning. She started as a transportation volunteer and then became its co-ordinator, and later worked as hospitality co-ordinator, including her stints at the Broadway Theatre, and currently acts as the set-up and take-down manager. She has also been a board member of both the society and the festival. Ellis will receive her award at the Broadway Theatre on June 29, prior to the Oliver Jones concert. The festival’s other honoured person, trumpeter and educator Barrie Redford, received a special recognition award on June 25, prior to the concert by the Saskatoon Jazz Orchestra. There were special Saskatoon moments for Hill and Chappell. The main attraction at The Bessborough in 1987 was a big band featuring vibraphonist Peter Appleyard, trumpeter Billy Butterfield, bassist Slam Stewart and trombonist Urbie Green, among others. “As soon as the tickets went on sale, I got my parents in the front row. After the concert, mom went up to Butterfield, pat-
ted him on the cheeks, hugged him and told him that he was so good. Butterfield must have wondered, what’s with this grey-haired woman?” Chappell said. Hill was proud of the instant success that came with the gospel shows in churches. “There was Louise Rose and then there was Dee Daniels who was the first of the gospel artists to sell out a church venue. It was really special for me in 1996 when Ian Wilson conducted the ceremonies at a gospel show, giving me a lifetime festival pass and announcing a builders’ award would be named in my honour.” The craziest festival finish ever, according to Chappell, was in 1989 when “we had a band of about 20 guys from Britain playing in the Bessborough Gardens. As the show ended, the players picked up their instruments and walked through the crowd. There was a swimming pool back of the hotel at the time. The trumpet player went up on the diving board, dove into the pool while still playing. It was the last musical note of the night. He survived but I’m not sure how the trumpet made out.” Hill added: “The band was called Loose Tubes and what an appropriate name.” One of Hill’s favourite memories, not associated with the festival, came in 1989 when he signed Canada’s legendary jazz pianist, Oscar Peterson, to perform as a cultural event during the Canada Summer Games. “That was a coup because other jazz promoters in Canada said I’d never pull it off. He was a great Canadian artist at the top of his game. He was generous and gave us a special price, and with the help of some sponsorship dollars, we pulled it off,” said Hill.

bumping nicely up against $50. That’s not great; and I do wish it would get over $50 and stay there. But it’s enough to drive at least a couple of oil companies back into the fields with a few new rigs. Job numbers were not good in May, down 9,500 from a year ago — including 7,200 full-time jobs. Ugh. Even so, though, our population has grown by 4,085 people since December, and by 16,118 in the last year. We’re now at 1,146,655 people. Recession or no, people are moving in and/or hanging around — partly, admittedly, because there are no jobs in Alberta, either. Still, by historical Saskatchewan standards, holding on to our folks in a bad economy is a positive new development. On the housing front, while I’m at it, there are a few signs of improvement, at least if you’re not trying to sell an apartment condo. You have to break out single family homes and townhouses from the real estate numbers to make sense of what’s going on: call it a tale of two markets. In the week of June 12, there were 1,137 single family homes for sale in Saskatoon, down 74 or six per cent from last year, reported Royal LePage Vidorra broker Norm Fisher on his website. That’s DC062709 Darlene
a really good thing. Meanwhile, there were 810 condos on the market, up 22 per cent from 664 in the same week of last year. Needless to say, prices on apartment condos are falling; but there has been a bit of recent price growth for single family homes and quite a bit of growth for townhouses. For the former, prices are back up over 2013 levels, if still slightly down from the last two years; but they’re presently moving in the right direction. Sales are still uninspiring, although pretty steady, as real estate agents have lately been selling 90 or 92 houses per week. People often argue that housing prices are too high in Saskatoon. For some, that is true. I would argue, though, that they are in general pretty much right around where they should be, if you look at things like weekly earnings and such parameters. And, if housing prices fall significantly (in normal, not-overheated markets like Vancouver), that’s a really bad sign, indicating your economy sucks. Things are rough in potash and tough in government; and that little Brexit problem may destabilaze things for a while. But not unlike Michael Raine’s flax, there are a few green shoots of promise out there.

InfraReady was Pickard’s brainchild
(Continued from page 1) he process has a variety of benefits: the infrared cooking gives ingredients a longer shelf life, reduces cooking time at the customer’s end, enhances food safety, and retains their nutrient value. All of these factors are crucial in a world where mouths to feed are growing exponentially. Most recently, InfraReady has launched a new lentil product that may take the meat industry by storm. The lentil powder is added to various kinds of processed meats, such as hamburgers and sausages, and drastically slows down the oxidization process. In layman’s terms, when you buy a prepared hamburger with the lentil product, it will still be an appealing red colour instead of brown, even after freezing. Plus, there’s plenty more protein packed inside. The product lines up nicely with InfraReady’s trademarked tagline: “the good we get from grain.” President Mark Pickard says InfraReady’s constant goal is to make good products better — such as, in this case, meat. “That’s why customers come to us; that why we retain customers,” said Pickard in the interview. “That’s what drives our innovation framework.” In the case of the lentil powder, as with other products, “we see it as a global ingredient,” he said. “We just completed a study in the Philippines, where we incorporated our filler into burgers and sausage products; and we reproduced the results we had at the University of Saskatchewan.” In other words, the research is proving itself in the market. The other huge benefit to the lentil filler is that it extends meat products in regions short of high-quality protein, said Pickard. Before the lentil product hit the market, the company was, in a sense, rewarded for its success by being evaluated — along with 12 other companies — in a Canadian Agriculture Policy Institute study. It was humbling to be chosen, said Pickard, because InfraReady was being compared to big companies like Maple Leaf Foods. The study concluded that at the core of a successful business lies the vision of the CEO for the goals of the organization; unique products, or niche opportunities with key selling features; the depth of relationships with customers; and an “enabling environment” — created by government policy and supportive associations. That’s what’s happening at InfraReady.
The company quickly began to introduce multigrain blends for baking, intended for sister company CSP Foods. But by 1997, SWP decided to go public, and in the process, a consultant was hired to rate SWP’s various businesses. The consultant recommended the SWP divest itself of InfraReady because of its small size. Pickard bought the company, found financial support through venture capital and a business partner, Bill Hetland of Hetland Seeds, and relaunched IRP in 1998. Ken Davis of Spectrum Ingredients, an ingredient distribution business based in Singapore, came on as the third partner. Partly due to Davis, “if you’re having a multigrain bagel in Kuala Lumpur, the grains in that bagel would likely come from us,” said Pickard, also giving a glimpse into the company’s considerable global reach.
Aproprietary wheat Together, they continued to add applications for infrared cooking, and to respond to market demands. Baby food makers buy their ingredients; organic wild rice from Saskatchewan has been joined by organic quinoa; 25 per cent of their products are gluten-free; and in another unique move, InfraReady has developed its own proprietary wheat, called AnthoGrain. It’s purple, and contains the anthocyanins (healthy dark pigments that neutralize free radicals: think blueberries) people are asking for the world over. In Saskatoon, you can try purple wheat in breads sold at local Co-op stores. Pickard recommends the cranberry-walnut loaf. Developed at the U of S, the purple wheat is grown exclusively for InfraReady in Saskatchewan by contracted farmers, and is made into a number of products — chief among them, noodles and bread for the Asian market. The wheat is the current subject of a clinical study at the University of Guelph, which is looking for markers for inflammation in people who eat AnthoGrain crackers or granola bars: the principle behind anti-oxidants is that they reduce inflammation. It’s not the only Saskatchewan product used at InfraReady. “Fifty per cent of what we process originates within 500 kilometres of Saskatoon,” said Pickard. Beans come from southern Alberta and southern Manitoba, and lentils from all over Saskatchewan. Then there’s barley — both for beermaking and, a bit more remarkably, cat litter. ReadyMate litter is natural, clumpable, flushable, biodegradable, compostable, renewable, local and safe for cats. They History dates to the can even eat it, should they so choose. Wheat Pool days You can make a great many things out InfraReady was really Pickard’s brainof healthy grains and pulses, but it does child. In the early 1990s, he was working for take time to prepare a good new product appropriate for the market, said Pickard. the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool (SWP) as “You don’t want it to be a fad; you its head of processing and research. He was asked to investigate ways of adding, want it to be a trend. We target healthy or finding, more value in food ingredients. grains to help their functionality, longterm.” Based on the seemingly-obvious obAnd foods have to last on the shelf, as servation that most food is cooked before well: “The shelf life of food is pretty imbeing consumed — consider chewing portant, because the supply chain is pretty through a bagful of raw wheat kernels long,” noted Pickard. — Pickard was drawn to the concept of He would know.

ee Anne will never forget seeing the Heart and Stroke Foundation’s signs of stroke ads on TV last summer. One evening she sat her family down and told them, “Watch, and if you ever see me experiencing any of these signs, call 9-1-1.” She never could have imagined what would come next. Five days later, Lee Anne was hit with a sudden loud humming in both her ears. Next, a tingling on the right side of her face… then the left side. Her face drooped, her speech slurred, and her coordination left her. She called to her husband, panicking: “Norm, something’s wrong!” Her husband called 9-1-1 and the ambulance whisked Lee Anne to hospital where she was diagnosed with an ischemic stroke and given the clot-busting drug tPA. tPA can only be administered within 4.5 hours of the onset of stroke.

Ways to lend a helping hand to seniors
• Wa r m a n , S K
Diamond House, located at 700 Ballesteros Crescent in the beautiful city of Warman, SK is opening Sept 1st as an “Aging in the Right Place” licensed personal care home. Providing all the care and services our residents require, our unique environment has 6 homes under one roof. Each home has large windows for residents to enjoy the warmth of the sun
M
en and women looking to give back to their communities can do so in various ways. Some might coach youth sports teams, while others might organize food and clothing drives for the less fortunate. Giving back to seniors in your town or city is another way to strengthen your community. Many seniors maintain their independence long past retirement age, but some may need a helping hand as they get older. The following are a handful of ways you can improve the quality of life of seniors in your community. • Deliver meals. Seniors who are confined to their homes typically need to have their meals delivered to them. Men and women looking to help seniors can volunteer to work with their local Meals on Wheels program. The need for volunteers to help seniors figures to grow in the coming decades. • Help around the house. The work required to maintain a home is considerable no matter a person’s age, but that task is even more difficult for seniors. Even the healthiest seniors may not have the mobility or physical strength required to keep up with household chores. Offering to help a senior maintain his or her home is a great way to improve their quality of life. Visit an elderly relative or neighbor and offer to mow their lawn, take out their garbage or perform another task they might find challenging. Performing a few chores around a senior’s house won’t take long, but such gestures can have a big impact on seniors’ lives. • Invite seniors over for dinner. Many seniors suffer from feelings of isolation, which can contribute to depression. Families are now more geographically diverse, and a senior’s children and grandchildren may not live nearby. In such cases, it’s easy for seniors to grow lonely and feel isolated from their communities. Inviting seniors over for a weekly dinner or to backyard social gatherings can help them maintain a connection to their communities and reduce their feelings of isolation. Extending such invitations also provides a great way for parents to instill in their children a respect for and appreciation of the elderly. • Arrange transportation for seniors who no longer drive. Many seniors stop driving when they realize their skills behind the wheel have diminished. But even though they may relinquish their drivers’ licenses, seniors still need to keep their doctor’s appointments and get out of the house. Speak with your neighbors who also want to help seniors to arrange transportation for those who can no longer get themselves around town. Explain to seniors’ physicians when you or your neighbors are most available to get seniors to their appointments. In addition, offer to drive seniors to the grocery store when making your own shopping trips. Many seniors made valuable contributions to the communities they call home. And those communities can give back by helping seniors overcome the demands of aging.
and the beautiful peaceful views plus a familysized dining room, living room, family room, sun room, laundry room and spa. This smaller environment provides residents with a warm residential home instead of institutional living.

Feedback from Contributors Re: Water spots on wood floor Dear Reena, Marianne had a problem with water spots on her hardwood floors. Not sure if this will work for her, but I have laminate flooring in my dining room and could not clean it without getting water spots. A friend told me she always cleans her floors with a spray bottle of Windex and a microfibre cloth. I have been using Windex ever since and no longer have trouble with water spots. — Ellen Re: Painting a fridge This is in reply to Lynette who wanted to know about painting refrigerators.

Hold the empty bottle upside down three to four inches away from the potted plant. Push the neck of the bottle into the soil on an angle towards the plant to make a hole. Fill the bottle with water and quickly flip the bottleneck into the hole, trying not to spill. The top of the soil may feel dry, but under the top layer the soil remains damp. Refill the bottle as needed. I enjoy your questions and tips; keep them coming. Need a presenter on the topic: Effective Speaking or The Power of Words? Check out: Reena.ca.

Forest-loving moose learning to thrive on farmland
W
By Michael Robin hile populations of moose have been declining in much of their North American range, research from the University of Saskatchewan (U of S) shows how these icons of the northern boreal forest are finding success by moving south into farmers’ fields. “Thirty years ago, seeing moose in the farmland of Saskatchewan would have been very rare but over time they have expanded to these new areas,” said Ryan Brook, a wildlife biologist with the Department of Animal and Poultry Science at the U of S. “It’s unique to see populations well-established in areas with less than one per cent forest cover and dominated by crop production.” Brook, who leads the Saskatchewan Farmland Moose Project, is working with colleagues to discover how the moose are succeeding in what used to be considered highly unsuitable habitat. The research team used a net gun fired from a helicopter to capture 40 adult cow moose and fit them with GPS satellite collars in 2013 and 2014 to track the animals’ movements for four years. The team found that the animals are taking advantage of the area’s rolling hills with plentiful tree-ringed sloughs and wetlands. During the heat of the summer days — hot for a moose being above 14 C
— the animals retreat to shade and water, coming out to feed once it cools off. The team’s finding are published in the Journal of Wildlife Management. Brook explained this is the first paper ever published on farmland moose, detailing specific ways that moose select habitat. It also maps overall habitat quality in both summer and winter, which will help support management efforts. Unfortunately for farmers, what the moose are feeding on is often crops, particularly cereals but also oilseeds such as canola. Crop damage is becoming a concern, particularly in the south central part of Saskatchewan. Moose are also hazardous for drivers, particularly in Saskatchewan, which has the largest municipal grid road network in Canada. The animals’ long legs and high centre of gravity create a high risk of driving the main body of the animal through the windshield. Since cows can weigh up to 360 kilograms and bulls up to 700 kilograms, collisions can be catastrophic. Brook explained that since moose have only recently started moving south, there has been little information available to guide management efforts, which makes the study vitally important. “There has not been any previous research on farmland moose, so a first
Ryan Brook is a wildlife biologist with the Department of Animal and Poultry Science at the U of S. (University of Saskatchewan Photo) step is to understand the ecology of these animals to understand habitat selection,” he said. Brook and his colleagues hypothesize that the moose are also doing well because farmland areas have few or no large predators like wolves or bears that keep populations in check in the boreal forest.
For now, the province has instituted moose hunting seasons in the affected areas. When feasible, farmers can also protect their crops by fencing off sloughs and associated treed areas to deprive moose of their daytime refuges.

Creating a welcoming environment A man fishes on the west side of the river bank across from Diefenbaker Park.
A paddle boarder is captured just before she goes under the Circle Drive South Bridge.
The numbness comes first, then you can’t talk. You’re having a stroke. The next thing you know, you’re in a hospital ward. You can’t move your hands, you can’t walk, you can’t communicate. It’s entirely possible to return to a healthy life. But where would you rather recover – in an institutional-like setting or somewhere more reminiscent of home? This is what professionals at Saskatoon City Hospital’s Inpatient Rehabilitation Centre want with Bringing Home to Rehab.
The 33-bed, intensive rehab program sees many patients recovering from conditions such as stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, other neurological disorders, and amputations or multiple traumas. Bringing Home to Rehab will make recovery the best it can be. The project will result in a more responsive physical environment. It will create a culturally inclusive and welcoming atmosphere with art and décor. It will bring patients comforts of home such as communications and entertainment devices.
Rehab’s Dr. Gary Linassi says, “We provide exceptional care at the lowest part of people’s lives. We want to create an environment they know and understand. Making the ward more comfortable, where patients can think about the future rather than dwell on what’s happened, is a good first step.” Donate today if you want to create a more welcoming environment for the hospital’s rehab patients.

Sound system changes, vibe stays the same at Buds Cam Hutchinson Saskatoon Express ne of Saskatoon’s rules of thumb is this: Don’t go messing with the ambiance of Buds on Broadway. Buds owners Dan Sirois and Dave Beckman know that full well and are careful to make a distinction between enhancements/improvements and changes. Buds has undergone a couple of improvements during the past month. It has a new sound system and new stage lighting, for starters. Sirois said the club’s soundman hasn’t quit smiling. Sirois and Beckman have owned Buds for more than two and a half years. They bought the club almost by chance. Sirois had moved back to Saskatoon from Kelowna and was looking for a business, while Beckman had recently retired from a job he held for 28 years. Sirois had previously been in the food and beverage world. “I never thought in a million years I would get back into this industry, but heard it was Buds and thought I would take a look at it because I knew the history behind Buds. … If it was any other establishment, we probably wouldn’t have got involved in it,” he said. In addition to being business partners, Sirois and Beckman are brothers-in-law. “When he first introduced it to me, he mentioned bar-slash-nightclub and I said, ‘I am not at all interested … get out of here.’ … but when he mentioned Buds on Broadway, I said, ‘Yeah, I will look at it,’” Beckman said. “Nightclubs come and go in the city but Buds has been a staple since 1984,” he added. “Whenever I mention it to anybody in Saskatoon, they seem to have a story about it. ‘I’ve been there; I met my wife there’ or ‘yeah, I go there all the time.’ That is the main reason why I said I would have a look at it.’” They did that looking almost three years ago. Beckman says there have been a few of those pinch-me moments along
O

(Photo by Steve Gibb/GibbArt.com) the way. “When we’re sitting here the odd time watching the band, we look at each other and say, ‘Can you believe we own this place?’ Again, it wasn’t on our radar at all.” Beckman said he and Sirois are looking ahead. “We are investing for the future – not for the three to five years, but we’re gearing up for the next couple of decades. And that is why we have invested in a state-ofthe-art sound system, lighting, projection TV, TVs in our lounge area. But we don’t want to deviate from what has made Buds so authentic.” The music at Buds has shifted a little bit from blues to rock in recent years. That said, Sirois said the club still has a strong blues following and caters to the blues society. The two laugh when they say patrons won’t hear country music at Buds. A lot of great acts have played and con-
tinue to play at Buds. Big Dave McLean is a staple. Jack Semple is a regular. Among the others who have stood on the stage are Colin James, Prism, Harlequin, Long John Baldry, Jordan Cook and Jerry Doucette. There is live music seven days a week. Sirois said the Saturday jams were a definite drawing card when he was deciding to make an offer on the club. These allage sessions — held between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. — are on a first-come, first-serve basis for budding artists and those curious about performing. A performer hosts the jam and there is a three-or four-piece band on stage to provide backup. “We will get some guys that are just spectacular and are going up there to have some fun, and we will get people that have minimal experience, but want to feel what it is like to go on stage and sing in front of a bunch of people,” Sirois said, adding those who try it out are as young as 10 or 11 years old. “People are here for
different reasons and that is the beauty of it. You don’t know what you are going to get.” Sirois said everyone goes home feeling like a star. “It doesn’t matter what he sounds like — everybody gets into it. By the time he gets off the stage, he has a pretty good feeling. Everyone is going to root and holler and scream and support him as much as they can. That’s pretty cool.” With Broadway Avenue getting work done underground and a fresh coat of asphalt on top, Sirois and Beckman thought it was a good time to make their changes — oops, improvements. “It is hard to change this and you don’t want to change it because this is what Buds is all about. It’s got character,” Sirois said. “If I put in brand new flooring, people would probably have a heart attack. You can’t change Buds. That would be a big, big mistake.”

About the only good thing — and it was an amazing, emotional thing — was the presentation made by Saskatoon’s Gerry Nelson and his remarkable son, Wyatt. Thank you to Kelly Chase for bringing attention to this wonderful story. • Torben Rolfsen, on a record 14 foreign-born players being selected in the first round of the NBA Draft: “This will now never happen in the U.K. basketball league.” • From Janice Hough: “Now that Brits have voted for Brexit, will Queen Elizabeth say to heck with it and retire in Canada?” • TC Chong, on Gladys Knight’s son, Shanga Hankerson, who owns three restaurants in Atlanta, being arrested in Florida for theft and tax evasion of $650,000: “Speculation is he was arrested getting on the midnight train back to Georgia.” • Ken Noskye’s sister, Debbi, a teacher in Las Vegas, says many people in her city would like its hockey team to be named Desert Storm. Not bad, but how about: 5. Craps; 4. Poker Faces; 3. Card Clickers; 2. 99 Cent Shrimp Cocktails; 1. Sin. • Here’s hoping the Saskatoon Blades can pick themselves up, dust themselves off and keep moving forward. I’m betting they will. • Bill Littlejohn, on Ben Affleck’s profanity-laced tirade regarding Deflategate: “Call it Good Will Ranting.” • CFL ratings: 9. Montreal; 8. Toronto; 7. British Columbia; 6. Winnipeg; 5. Saskatchewan; 4. Ottawa; 3. Calgary; 2. Edmonton; 1. Hamilton. • Nice to see the tall foreheads at Sportsnet eating crow on their decision to replace Ron MacLean with George Stroumboulopoulos. Get to know your audience, fellows. • From @randyturner15: “I sunk my life’s savings into British pounds. They’re now worth six ounces.” • One on the same topic from @ josecanseco: “Pound is sinking faster then (sic) the Spanish Armada. Hug for u Great Britain.” • A question from Rolfsen: “Did they ever find out what made Dustin Johnson’s ball move?” • Hough, on the NHL approving an expansion team in Las Vegas: “Well, this actually could be a major boon for the league in the U.S. Americans love any
sport when they can bet on it.” • Chong, on singer Don MacLean and his wife having finalized their divorce with a settlement of $10 million: “It’s bye bye to a 10-million-dollar piece of pie.” • From Arash Madani, the best CFL reporter in the country: “The Argos offensive game plan looks to be designed on the back of a greasy paper bag of takeout.” • From Littlejohn: “Rumours of Joe Flacco’s death were started by a fan’s Twitter page. I guess someone must’ve read it backwards.” • From Hough: “The ESPN Body Issue is coming out in July, and MLB will be represented by Jake Arrieta. What, no Bartolo Colon?” • Rolfsen, on a Chinese man running 222 kilometres around Beijing in 45 hours: “Did he have a tank chasing him?” • I’ve known some Brits who didn’t know if they were coming or going. •Hough, on LeBron James Jr, age 11, apparently having scholarship offers from Kentucky and Duke: “Not sure if Dad will give his son any advice — other than not to announce his decision on an ESPN special.” • From Rolfsen: “Las Vegas NHL prop bet? What happens first: a Stanley Cup win or a move to Seattle?” • Really, TSN? The highest-ranking Rider on your top-50 list is Darian Durant at No. 26? • Some Canadian sports people have been watching too much U.S. election coverage. How silly was it to call Auston Matthews the “presumptive” first pick in the NHL draft? • Chong, on Cleveland (aka the Mistake by the Lake) fans celebrating their team’s NBA championship with the city’s first victory parade in 52 years: “The last time Cleveland won a major team sports award, the Great Lakes were merely ponds.” • From Rolfsen: “Not sure where more champagne corks were popped: the Cavaliers locker room or the viewing party for the ’96 Bulls.” • I was going to say Ricky Ray is done, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt for another week. • Hough, on the University of Alabama football team’s strength coach, Scott Cochran, making $525,000 a year: “Well, that’s a whole $10,000 less than the $535,000 Judy Bonner, the president of the university, makes.” • From Chong: The CFL is the only league in the world where the referees’ flags are dirtier than the players’ uniforms after one quarter of play.”

RJ’s Groaner of the Week Police in Kentucky arrested a Louisville man who was running down a street naked and swinging a sword. Despite the lack of clothes, he was considered a sharp dresser.
here’s an Olympic flavouring to the 2016 class going into the Saskatoon Sports Hall of Fame. Don Bates was an assistant coach on the Canadian women’s softball team, which finished fourth in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. Jamie Cruickshank was a member of Canada’s national bobsleigh team for five years and placed 13th at the 2006 Olympics in Italy. Kelsie Hendry is one of four Canadians to compete in the Olympics women’s pole vault, which was only added to the events list in 2000. She placed 18th in the 2008 Games at Beijing. Randy Smith was an assistant captain on the Canadian hockey team that won a silver medal at the 1992 Olympics in Albertville, France. That’s the best result for a Saskatoon hockey player in Olympic history. Sprinter Cyprian Enweani, coach
Lyle Sanderson and trainer Al Bodnarchuk all had Olympic credentials in athletics and their tickets to the Saskatoon Sports Hall of Fame were stamped because of their roles on the 1986-87 University of Saskatchewan men’s track and field team, which were national champions. Also joining Bates in the builder category are Bob Fawcett (hockey, soccer, track and field), Percy Hoff (soccer) and Raymond Wight (badminton, cycling). Also going in as athletes are Duane Dmytryshyn (football) and Joey Staubner (standing volleyball). Inducted as a team were Stephanie Hart and Casey (Berry) Napper for baton twirling. The Saskatoon Marian Gymnastic club, which has been active since 1963, was chosen as the sports organization of the year. The induction ceremonies will take place Nov. 5 at TCU Place.

• A strawberry moon (full on the summer equinox) rose this June — a rarity not seen in over half a century. That reminds me: there was a championship parade in Cleveland. • Swedish soccer player Adam Lindin Ljungkvist was given a red card for passing gas on the pitch. If it is “the beautiful game,” what was that? A work of fart? • Soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo threw a television reporter’s microphone into a lake. We’ll assume it was a stupid question, because it looked like a stupid answer. • Warriors forward Harrison Barnes shot 5-of-32 in the last three games against the Cavaliers. Not exactly Barnesstorming. • MLB analyst Harold Reynolds, after Kyle Lewis was a first-round pick: “He’s 20 years old; that’s what stands out. Most people are 21 at that age.” It’s not often someone makes TSN’s Rod Black look incisive. • In the CFL season opener it was Hamilton 42, Toronto 20. Sadly for the debut of BMO Field, the home team looked more like Argo-nots.

By RJ Currie oronto GM Lou Lamoriello said his NHL squad needs to focus on the process, not the playoffs. Sadly for the Maple Leafs, that’s historically been a process of elimination. • Canadian JD Guignard unicycled along a thin 200-foot-high ridge in Big Muddy Valley, Sask. Scary, but less scary than if the Roughriders lose QB Darian Durant again. • Enough already with the question: Who is pro baseball’s true all-time hits leader? The answer is obvious. IchiRose. • A month-old camel born in Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo has become a social media star. In a related story, Cubs fans hope this year their team gets over the hump. • The Brier will expand to 16 teams in 2018, including top curling squads that fail to win a regional berth. “Great,” said Mike McEwen. “And about eight years too late.” • According to a 2015 study, Winnipeg was the most dangerous city in Canada to visit. Unless you were a CFL team. • Don MacLean’s divorce, which his wife filed for in March, is final and will cost the singer $10 million US. Talk about bad news on the doorstep. • Darren Kramer, a winger on Manitoba’s AHL team, was tased by Orlando police after resisting arrest at Disney World over stolen bowling pins. It all sounds Mickey Moose.
