Unlike LMFAO’s lead rapper who repeatedly claims to “work out” in their hit single I’m Sexy and I Know It, I don’t. I’m not saying this proudly and I have tremendous respect for those who lift weights or perform any manner of exercises on a consistent basis. I’m just lazy. I tried hitting the gym a few times during high school, even gave the bowflex at home a whirl here and there. As previously mentioned, though, I’m lazy so things didn’t work out. Goodness gracious, just pretend that last pun didn’t happen. Nevertheless, I do consider myself to be in admirable shape. My 150 lbs. soaking wet frame isn’t the best indication of that, but I feel good. Now, at 23, I’m not saying I should be crowd surfing because I feel good, however, I would like to briefly talk about the importance of staying active. It’s without a doubt what’s kept my weight from ballooning throughout my childhood and early adulthood. I should also add I don’t eat that healthy. I’m certainly not stuffing my face with chocolate and chips on a daily basis, but I’m not counting calories or cooking fresh food every day, either, things I know I should be doing more often. The laziness is strong with this one. Now, before an image of some slim couch vegetable emerges in your brain, which every so often I do transform into, I should say I have been an active person for a long time. My mom did an excellent job of finding me things to do as a young kid, signing me up for a multitude of activities. From a weekly basketball camp to summer camps, I always had something to look forward to and in between those periods in time, I played baseball or soccer with friends
Alex Coop
Writing Prevents That Sinking Feeling on a large field in front of our apartment. I was never sitting in one spot for very long. As I got older, I made sure this didn’t change. I signed up for local basketball and soccer leagues, worked as a referee, walked nearly everywhere whenever I had the chance and played pick-up with friends when the ground was at the very least, dry. Some of my best memories playing basketball with friends wasn’t during our high school championship run, instead it was at a local church in Hanover, Ontario, where arguably the kindest person I’ve ever known opened the gym for a handful of us every Monday and let us play to our heart’s content from 6 to 9 at night. Every Monday, for … 8 years, I think? College prevented me from attending every week. I made sure, though, that went I went back to Hanover for a visit I played there. An older gentlemen, who I know for a fact was over 50, came out to the church to play every week as well. I also know for a fact, this man hunted dinosaurs when he was younger because I can’t imagine how else he would have been in the shape he was in at age 50-something. He was six feet tall, had arms that were no smaller than the Hulk’s and was so quick on his feet I could almost see the hunter inside of him trying to escape while we
played. It was incredible. The only people in better shape were his sons. When they played on the same team everyone else had tears running down their cheeks. It was inspiring to see a tight knit family in such tremendous shape. They had told me that they ate well and often worked out, the sons did anyway, the father at that point in his life had simply focused on being active, at age 50plus. They all agreed it wasn’t the workouts, it wasn’t the healthy eating and it was being active on a daily basis that got them where they were. That’s where I want to be when I’m 50. I know I have work to do. Finding a group of people to play basketball with every week at the Comp though is a good start. Coaching basketball and walking to places when I can are other good steps. I know my laziness will likely prevent me from achieving dinosaur hunting level of fitness, but I’m happy with where I am now and ecstatic that I have activities to look forward to every week. Remember, being active doesn’t solely mean playing sports. It’s walking, jogging, skateboarding and vacuuming. Anything and everything that doesn’t involve you sitting in one spot for too long is considered being active. Studies show that participating in sports alone doesn’t necessarily mean that children and young people meet the recommended levels of physical activity. Being active does wonders not only for your body but for your mind as well. A good diet alongside exercise is an excellent routine to get used to. Being active on a daily basis however, is a necessity. Try and push yourself to exhaustion once a week and don’t let winter slow you down.
Enriched housing for livestock How farmers care for their livestock has become one of the big consumer questions. Or, at least it seems that way. Ask a person on the street if they want drug injected beef and the answer is likely to be no. But when they sit down to a steak or hamburger, it is not likely many of us are wondering how long ago the animal the meat came from was injected with a drug . Ask someone if they think laying hens should be kept in cramped cages and most of us are likely to think that is not the best idea. Of course crack an egg from a true freerange chicken, one with access to grass and weeds to eat, and the consumer sees a dark yellow yolk, they are likely to be concerned too. There are still many who look at a brown-shelled egg and see it as inferior to a white-shelled one. It comes down to a case of perception for consumers far more than anything based on verifiable fact. That is not surprising really. I have a friend that doesn’t eat anything that’s purple.
Calvin Daniels Trader Agriculture Columnist Now is a purple potato actually different than a regular spud? In his case the answer is immaterial since he has determined purple is not a proper colour for food. I have also seen people at a family supper quite enjoying the offered dished, until someone at the table mentioned it was rabbit. One of those at the table, having already ate a piece without complaint, refused to eat the second piece on her plate. We make food choices based on all manner of reasons, and most are simply ones based on how we perceive things. So something like crowded cages for laying hens becomes an easy target for animal rights groups who can gather consumer support rather easily. That is not to say there may not be better
options than the old-style cages. In fact, the industry is moving away from such facilities. As an example the Egg Farmers of Alberta have a policy that no new barns will be built using conventional battery cages as of Jan. 1, 2015. The new systems for layers are being terms ‘enriched housing’. Such systems nearly double the room allowed each hen from the old cages, and allows for birds to perch, something, which is now seen as a natural thing for chickens to do. Of course, the new barns do raise costs, doubling space alone does that. So then the question becomes how is that extra investment paid for? One sure answer is that consumers will not be lining up to willingly pay more for their eggs. Consumers may be vocal in their desire to see livestock raised in ways to meet their perception of proper, but they are also adamant in their desire for continued cheap food. The two desires do not work well together, and farmers get stuck in the middle trying to meet both demands.

Provincial News Proposed bylaws for LPNs continue acoop@estevanmercury.ca
Proposed bylaw changes for licensed practical nurses shouldn’t ring any alarm bells, said Lynsay Nair, executive director of the Saskatchewan Association of Licensed Practical Nurses (SALPN). Following a special meeting called by the Saskatchewan Registered Nurses’ Association on Oct. 6 in Saskatoon in response to proposed bylaw changes for licensed practical nurses (LPNs), Nair spoke with The Trader Express in hopes of alleviating some of the registered nurses concerns. “Many of the practices that are being discussed now were previously captured in documents that weren’t in bylaw,” she said, referring to items recorded in practice guidelines. “Now we’ve been given the direction to put those documents into bylaw, and a bylaw is obviously
much more official than a practice guideline.” Concerns raised in Saskatoon largely revolved around LPNs’ lack of training when it comes to certain procedures. Nair said these fears could be put to rest. “The proposed bylaws change is actually quite a small document and the first piece of that is capturing what we would have traditionally called specialty practices, and this would be LPNs that have worked in the operating room, and LPNs have been in the operating room for 30 years, and we have nationally adopted LPN standards,” Nair said. “This is just moving from something that’s not in bylaw to bylaw.” She listed other specialty practices that are in the proposed amendments to SALPN regulatory bylaws including dialysis, orthopedic and advanced foot care practices. Immunization, something LPNs have been able

to perform under certain guidelines since 2007, is also in the proposed drafts. “For all of the activities, aside from the specialized practices because those are very different areas of practice, they will actually have more restrictions than they’ve ever had,” she said, noting either an order or the presence of an RN or physician would have to be arranged. Nair said many LPNs attended the meeting in Saskatoon, but regulations preventing guests from speaking made it difficult

On September 28th many Outram and Torquay area residents attended or worked for the annual fowl supper held at St. Giles Anglican Church in Estevan. Last weekend Julia, Morgan and Angelina Klatt stayed with their grandparents, Donald and Faye Mantei at their farm. On September 3rd, Karie Mantei from Brandon, Manitoba, and Donald and Faye Mantei from Outram went to Creston, British Columbia, to visit Helen Blondheim. While
there they visited Marguerite Bryson and her daughter Barbara Jorgenson of Cranbrook, British Columbia. They returned September 6th. On September 18th Faye Mantei from Outram and Cindy Lokse from Beaulier enjoyed the Alan Jackson concert at Moose Jaw. While there, they visited with Cindy’s sister Lorianne and Rob. We are hoping for warm dry weather so farmers can complete harvest.

Afterwards the pastor asked the old farmer what he thought. The old farmer remarked, “Well pastor, I don’t know much ‘bout preachin’, but I do know somethin’ ‘bout farmin’ and if I went out in the field and found only one cow, I wouldn’t give ‘em the whole bale.”

SaskEngery has setback PRUDHOMME, Sask. - Residents in a rural Saskatchewan community are out of their homes for a second time after a setback in controlling a fire at a natural gas pumping station that has been burning since the weekend. There were no injuries reported when an explosion Saturday started the fire at a TransGas facility near Prud’homme, a village northeast of Saskatoon. TransGas is a subsidiary of Crown-owned SaskEnergy. Company spokesman Dave Burdeniuk said there was a setback Wednesday morning, when a wellhead failed and caused a larger flame to burn. The wellhead leads to one of seven underground caverns, which are used to store natural gas for the
winter when demand for heating is greater. “The pressure of the gas coming up the wellhead casing pipe ... pushed the wellhead out of the way,” Burdeniuk said. “The wellhead was very heat damaged because it had endured the intensity of those flames. “It was a situation that we had planned for. We had hoped to be able to use the existing wellhead to cap and seal off the cavern.” He said four families located within two kilometres of the site were to be out of their homes for the day. “We will get them back into their homes as quickly as we can,” he said. The caverns are about 1.5 kilometres underground and as tall as a 12-storey office building.
The facility was unstaffed when the fire started, which is common on evenings and weekends when the demand for natural gas is low. Automated equipment shut down the facility and a Calgary company specializing in oil and gas fires was called in to help extinguish the blaze, which generated flames up to 20 metres high. Burdeniuk said the failure of the wellhead on Wednesday followed a 60hour process to turn off the primary gas source feeding the flames. The plan now is to install a new wellhead and seal off the cavern, he said. Once the fire is under control, there will be an investigation to determine what happened with the wellhead, he said.
National News Plans for Canada’s 150th birthday in the works OTTAWA - The Harper government has launched a $4-million national ad campaign celebrating the fathers of Confederation and a country that has become “strong, proud and free” more than two years in advance of Canada’s 150th birthday in 2017. The national ad buy, which began airing last month, is part of some $7.2 million allotted to the Heritage department this year to promote the government’s
“Canada 150” campaign. A spokesman for Heritage Minister Shelley Glover says it is important to remind Canadians of earlier milestones on the road to Confederation, notably the Charlottetown and Quebec conferences of 1864. But NDP critic Mathieu Ravignat says the size of the government ad budget — this far in advance of the 2017 anniversary — smacks of pre-election positioning by a Conservative govern-

ment that he says has a history of using public ad funds for partisan purposes. The $7-million “Canada 150” ad budget makes it one of the larger campaigns in the Conservative government’s $60 million advertising portfolio for 2014. The government has also committed $10 million to advertising its annual “economic action plan,” $8 million to promote its “better jobs” program, $5 million promoting services for veterans and $5.5 million to combat illicit drug use — a campaign that has been criticized as a partisan attack on a Liberal pledge to legalize marijuana.

Don’t overlook mycotoxins in fall and winter-feed supply Sean Thompson, BSc, AAg, Regional Livestock Specialist Watrous regional office More and more cattle producers are using fall and winter grazing to extend the grazing season, and for good reason. This management practice is a cost-effective option that reduces labour requirements and can keep livestock out of the corrals until just before calving season. Maximizing forage yield while maintaining forage quality is the goal for most producers. However, one area that is commonly overlooked is that of plant disease and the effects that mycotoxins can have on grazing livestock. Crop disease is largely dependent on the weather conditions and for that reason it is very hard to manage. Cool and moist conditions when cereal crops were flowering have resulted in an increase of crop disease, particularly fusarium and ergot. Mycotoxins can be quite harmful to livestock,
and while ruminants are generally more tolerant to mycotoxins than other livestock species, they are still at risk. Fusarium will produce a several different toxins, including vomitoxin, zearalenone, and fumonisins. Each of these toxins will cause negative effects on beef cattle if present in high enough concentrations. The effects of each compound differ slightly but can be characterized by a reduction in feed intake, reduced growth and performance, suppressed immunity, and potential fertility issues such as disrupted breeding cycles and abortion. If any of these toxins are at levels of 5 ppm or higher, feeding management is necessary to avoid possible toxicity. It is important to note that straw from fusarium infected cereal crops will also contain the associated mycotoxins and can become an issue if cattle are consuming it. When fusarium is present, it is more likely that other mould metabolites
may also be present in Western Canadian cereal crops, for example aflatoxin and ochratoxin. These toxins can become more concentrated in stored feed, especially if moisture levels are elevated. Cattle consuming feed with aflatoxin may develop a suppressed immunity, which could cause vaccines to fail.
has been steadily increasing in recent years, and this year is no different. Most cereal crops and grass species are susceptible to ergot and for this reason both grain and forages should be considered for possible infection. Very few ergot bodies are needed to harm livestock as deaths related to ergot poi-
Mycotoxins can be quite harmful to livestock, and while ruminants are generally more tolerant to mycotoxins than other livestock species, they are still at risk. Moderate levels of ochratoxin can be broken down in the rumen and is of lesser concern for healthy cattle. However, it is a suspected carcinogen and can lead to liver and kidney damage, as well as abortions, if large amounts are consumed. The incidence of ergot
soning have been observed with as little as 0.04% in the diet by weight. Symptoms include depressed feed intake, reduced milk production, lack of blood flow to extremities resulting in the loss of ears, tails, and hooves, and eventually death.
If conditions remain wet through the fall, forage set aside for fall grazing will be more likely to become mouldy. This is especially true for crops lying in the field destined for swath grazing, although standing forage, hay and green feed should not be overlooked. Producers should have their feed tested for mycotoxins if they suspect mould may be present. With the exception of ergot, contaminated feed can usually be diluted and fed provided a feed test is completed and mycotoxins levels are known, though feeding mouldy feedstuffs to pregnant cattle is not recommended.
For more information about winter feed management, contact your Regional Livestock Specialist, or call the Agriculture Knowledge Centre at 1-866-457-2377.
Ergot Management
Tips from agriculture.gov.sk.ca
Harvesting techniques: Ergot levels are typically higher around the edge of the field, as this is where the spores come in from roadside grasses, and where insects are most active. Tillage: For farmers using conventional tillage, burying the crop residue and ergot bodies to a depth of approximately four centimetres can impede their germination the following spring. Seed cleaning: Ergot bodies are relatively easy to clean from the seed lot, but cleaning can be expensive, especially if a gravity separator is used. Plant clean seed: Planting seed infested with ergot bodies can spread disease to previously clean fields. Unfortunately, there is not much a farmer can do to control ergot in the field. Prevention is the best management strategy, but it is too late to practice once ergot symptoms have been observed.

TURTLEFORD, Sask. - The RCMP have cancelled an Amber Alert in Saskatchewan for twin 10-year-old girls. Police say Caitlyn and Carrley Blythe were found safe at a hotel in Carlyle about an hour after the Amber Alert was issued on Wednesday afternoon. Their mother, 49-yearold Beverly Blythe, was with them. The twins were last seen Tuesday morning at their home in Paradise Hill — about 740 km northwest of where they were found. Police say a physician in Carlyle was assessing
Blythe. Mounties said she has a medical condition, but wouldn’t elaborate. RCMP can’t say at this time whether she’ll face any charges. The girls were headed home to be with their biological father. “When the members went to the hotel, (they) spoke to the mother and everybody was OK, and taken into custody without incident,” said RCMP Sgt. Rob Cozine. An Amber Alert is issued when police have been notified about a child or vulnerable adult believed to be at risk of serious harm or death.

A Supplement to the Southeast Trader Express
Celebrating agriculture By Norm Park for Agri News October is a great month to celebrate agriculture with an officially recognized month set aside to pay homage to producers. Usually by this time the crops are in the bins, but sometimes they aren’t … this year being one example. But Saskatchewan farmers are never stuck in the mud, except, of course, when they’re stuck in the mud … literally. Lately that has occurred much too frequently. We count on our farmers and ranchers to show us diversity, ingenuity and innovative thought processes to go along with their strong work ethic, especially when it comes to seeding and harvests. There is an attitude that things must get done, whatever it takes. On a few occasions, it just doesn’t happen, no matter how hard they try and no matter how many hours they’re willing to put in to complete the job. Usually October is the month producers take to sit back, reflect on the recently completed harvest and begin early-stage planning for the next seeding plan and efforts. It’s a time for balancing revenues against expenditures, replacing parts and getting harvest equipment prepped for winter storage. That is just not the case this year. There is a certain sense of uneasiness that is palpable throughout the province this fall, especially in this area where only 60 to 70 per cent of the crop is safely tucked away in elevators and bins. The indecisive weather patterns have created more than a few problems, the kind of problems that producers fear along side those connected to droughts, hail, diseases and insects. We refer to the dreaded frost and time elements that are now working against farmers. The clock and cooler weather are now conspiring against those who are simply wanting to put the crop and equipment away and call it a year. Instead, they soldier on with that get it done attitude, knowing full well the exercise may be futile at this stage with the condition of the crop now making the effort a useless operation with the value of the product on the ground worth less than the costs that the farmer will have

No farmer worth his or her salt ever wants to cry Uncle or leave a crop sitting on the ground, fit only to be plowed under. They take it personally as a sign of failure or weakness when it isn’t that at all. But try to convince them of that. Even Mother Nature will have to take a back seat to a determined, yes, stubborn producer who will never say quit. They’ll run a combine in the snow if they have to and be

damned if it’s only worth a buck a bushel. They’re going to take it off and put it away before they put the equipment away. That’s just how it is. And that will even hold true with the corporate farmer, if the shareholders will let them do what they do best. It’s called farming and nobody ever said it was easy. That’s why we need to celebrate farmers and Agriculture Month in this province, every year.

Producers still trying to complete harvest By Norm Park for Agri News Moving into the second week of October, many southeast Saskatchewan farmers had still not been able to harvest their 2014 crops. In fact, the southeast and east-central regions in the province were between 53 and 62 per cent combined by Oct. 3 whereas almost 80 per cent was off and in the bins in the southwest sector. Most of the problem is attributed to unco-operative weather patterns that don’t promise to bring much relief heading into mid-October either. There were a few warm and sunny days in late September that allowed producers to make significant progress on cropped land that wasn’t too damp, but now the attention shifts to crop quality. Crop specialists around southern Saskatchewan are noting fusarium graminearum fungus sprouting in wheat and durum fields. That will affect their marketability said Norm Hall, president of the Saskatchewan Agricultural Producers Association. On the other hand, flax and canola
crops are holding up fairly well. Canola is capable of handling water, even in a swathed state. Frost is the other major concern with temperatures now regularly dipping below the freezing mark overnight, although not too deeply yet. Many producers report that by this time in traditional crop years, their harvests are completed. Several producers are already contemplating moving away from wheat crops for next season due to lower prices while canola prices have remained relatively stable. However, as is always the case, price fluctuations and market conditions can change, sometimes almost overnight. Under current conditions, if the crops can be brought in within the next two week, winter wheat will average around 41 bushels to the acre while fall rye will register around 36 and hard red spring wheat will be around 30 to 31 bushels per acre. Durum will register a little better at 37 bushels and barley will be at 58 and flax around 23 compared with canola at 32 and soybeans around 12, say crop forecasters.

October has been proclaimed Agriculture Month in Saskatchewan. Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart made the proclamation Oct. 1, noting that this year those who deal with the agricultural industries are asked to focus on opportunities in agriculture for youth. “Agcriculture is one of the largest economic engines in Saskatchewan, accounting for about 10 per cent of the provincial domestic product and generating ore than 50,000 jobs in the province,” Stewart said. “As harvest continues October is an ideal time to share with youth the opportunities that this thriving industry has to offer.” With a growing global demand for food comes high demand for welltrained individuals to work in the agriculture industry. To attract youth to a rewarding career in agriculture, the ministry has launched a new website at
www.saskatchewan.ca/thinkag that profiles real Saskatchewan people employed in the industry. In addition to interactive career features, this site offers scholarship information and teacher resources. In addition to the website, a thinkAG Facebook page has also been launched to give current and potential ag employees a forum to discuss careers in agriculture and what the industry has to offer. During the month of October, teachers, career counselors, producers and industry are encouraged to get involved in spreading the message that a job in agriculture can lead to a challenging, rewarding career. Stay connected with Agriculture Month by following the Ministry of Agriculture on Twitter @SkGovAG, on Facebook or by visiting the website www. saskatchewan.ca/thinkag.

Northgate facility will soon send grain into American market Ceres Global Ag. Corp is completing the funding arrangements that will allow them to begin shipping Saskatchewan grain into United States grain handling facilities this fall. Ceres is putting the finishing touches to a $90 million grain and oil transloading facility at Northgate, Sask., on the Canada/U.S. border. The Burlington Northern, Santa Fe railroad will be making regular forays into the facility to pick up products for delivery to any of Riverland’s nine grain elevators in the United States. Riverland is 100 per cent owned by Toronto-based Ceres. The grain storage and handling facilities are located in Minnesota and New York as well as Ontario. They have an aggregate storage capacity of 48 million bushels. They also manage two facilities in Wyoming on behalf of its customer-owner Stewart Southern Railway Inc., a shortline railroad (130 km.) that operates in southeastern Saskatchewan. Ceres had agreed to non-binding terms with VN Capital and Whitebox Advisors with a standby commitment for the rights offering which will be
subject to definitive documentation with respect to the standby commitment and any required regulatory approvals on the purchase of common shares for gross proceeds of $70 million. VN Capital Management, LLC, James Vanasek and Patrick Donnell Noone and funds managed by Whitebox LLC., have all announced their intention to fully backstop the rights offering. Their respective firms are also shareholders of Ceres. The rights offering will be to all existing holders of common shares of Ceres and were expected to be priced at a 15 per cent discount to the closing price of the common share on Sept. 26, which was $7.04. Another point of the overall proposal notes that a senior secured term loan in the amount of US$30 million with a financial institution to replace the current US$20 million bridge loan, will be taken. The new loan is to provide financing for a term of up to five years. “These financing proposals are critical milestones for Ceres as it ramps up the construction and development of Northgate,” said Patrick Bracken, Ceres
president and CEO, who replaced Michael Detlefsen in July of this year. Detlefsen worked with Bracken and the management team through to September to ensure a smooth transition. “They will provide the needed capital for the construction of the remaining rail infrastructure as well as the temporary and then permanent grain transloading facilities at Northgate,” said Bracken. The Northgate hub is featuring two sets of tracks that loop through the 1,500 acre centre, picking up grain and agriculture produce from one transloading site while another rail loop will allow BNSF cars to gather oil taken from the nearby Bakken oil play for transfer to refineries and markets in the American midwest and south. The completion of the debt and equity financing will allow Ceres to be in position to complete plans for the Northgate project, enabling them to draw southern Saskatchewan commodities directly into the U.S. via the BNSF rail network, which has also been upgrades recently to accommodate the expected additional influx of traffic and commodity flow.

Genome breakthrough University of Saskatchewan researchers, are part of an international team that published the first chromosome-based draft sequence of the wheat genome, a development that promises wheat breeders powerful new tools in developing varieties to meet the challenges of world population growth and climate change. “The release of the chromosomal draft of the wheat genome sequence will accelerate gene discovery in wheat, and pave the way for development of tools to improve breeding of complex traits such as yield, insect and disease resistance, and end-use quality,” said Curtis Pozniak, one of the principal investigators for the U of S contribution to the paper, which appeared in the July 18 issue of the International Journal, Science. Pozniak, a professor in the College of Agriculture and Bioresources, is a wheat breeder and geneticist, with the U of S Crop Development Centre. He is also one of the project leaders of CTAG (Canadian Triticum Advancement through Genomics), a multi-year, multi-million dollar project managed by Genome Prairie that supports sequencing of the wheat genome. “The chromosomebased draft is a technical tour de force and highlights improvements in sequencing and bioinformatics over the last few years,” said Andrew Sharpe, co-principal investigator for CTAG and research officer at the National Research Council of Canada’s Saskatoon research facilities on the U of S campus. “The work has provided a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of the wheat genome. However, the full story will only be established with the development of a reference genome sequence.” The work is a key step towards generating the
knowledge needed to unlock higher productivity in wheat and meet global demand for this important food source. Canada’s annual wheat crop is valued at about $4 billion, with much of that production destined for global markets. “Farmers in Canada and around the world must significantly increase production to feed more than nine billion people by 2050, and do this in the face of challenges posed by limited land resources and climate change,” said Chris Barker, chief scientific officer at Genome Prairie. “Clear knowledge of the wheat genome is essential to allow developers to produce wheat varieties to meet these challenges.” Worldwide statistics show wheat ranks third behind corn and rice in volume produced, with almost 700 million tonnes harvested from 215 million hectares. This is the most area of any crop under cultivation, in part due to the crop’s ability to grow in a wide range of environments. A staple for about 30 per cent of the world’s people, wheat’s ease of storage and versatility make it a key ingredient in a wide variety of foods across many cultures. CTAG represents Canada’s contribution to the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium
(IWGSC) which is focused on sequencing each of the 21 chromosomes of bread wheat. Involving more than 1,000 researchers worldwide, IWGSC’s goal is to complete a reference sequence or complete wheat genome sequence. To date, this has been achieved for chromosome 3B, the largest of wheat’s 21 chromosomes, a feat published in the same issue of Science. “With the draft gene sequence for each of the bread wheat chromosomes and the first reference sequence of chromosome 3B, we have reached a great milestone in our roadmap,” said Catherine Feuillet, IWGSC co-chairwoman. “We know now the way forward to obtain a reference sequence for the 20 remaining chromosomes and we hopefully will be able to find the resources to achieve this in the next three years.” Financial support for the CTAG project is provided by Genome Canada, the Province of Saskatchewan, the Western Grains Research Foundation, Viterra and Alberta Innovates. Additional funders include the Alberta Crop Industry Development Fund, India’s National AgriFood Biotechnology Institute and France’s Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique.

Free trade deals excite Canadian producers Various producer agencies have reacted to recent announcements regarding Canada’s signing of free trade agreements with the Europen Union and South Korea. The Canadian Cattlemen’s Association cheered the Sept. 24 declaration signed between Canada and the EU that followed their earlier agreement-in-principle that was reached last October. The cattlemen believe that this was a major step toward ultimate ratification of a signed free trade contract. CCA president Dave Solverson called the CETA one that beef producers could appreciate since once it is ratified it will provide new duty-free access for 64,500 tonnes of Canadian beef valued at nearly $600 million to move into European markets annually with the major portion of that quota reserved for Canada alone. “The CCA would like to see the same unanimous endorsement from all the provinces and territories that the agreement-in—principle received last fall,” said Solverson. “The CCA urges the federal and provincial governments to move quickly to implement the agreement as soon as

possible.” The agreement was hailed as a game-changer for Canada’s beef industry since it removed long standing barriers such as high tariffs and allows Canuck beef producers to access the high value European beef markets. The Cattlemen’s Association also applauded the Canada-Korea FTA that was signed two days earlier by Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Korean President Park Geun-hye. The two leaders signed the final text just three months after it was tabled in the Canadian Parliament. Under the terms of this agreement, the 40 per cent Korean tariff on fresh and frozen beef will be completely eliminated in 15 equal, annual steps and the 18 per cent tariff on offals will be fully eliminated in 11 equal annual steps. Korea lifted its BSE prohibition on Canadian beef in 2012. Before the ban, in 2002, Canada was shipping $40 million worth of beef into Korean markets. After the mad-cow ban was put in place, that market dropped to

$7.8 million. The signing of the agreement signals Korean buyers that they can resume a relationship with Canadian beef suppliers who will now be entering a long-term competitive position. The Canola Council of Canada (CCC) also applauded the Korean FTA agreement since it meant Canadian canola would soon have tariff-free access to South Korea. “This will put canola on equal footing with other oilseeds, improving export opportunities for both seed and oil,” said Patti Miller, president of the CCC. Under the terms of the agreement, the current five per cent tariff that Korea applies to canola seed, will be eliminated immediately while tariffs on refined canola oil and crude wil will be eliminated for three and seven years respectively. CCC estimates the agreement could double South Korea’s imports of Canadian canola seed and oil which are currently valued at between $60 million and $90 million annually. Canola is a $19.3 billion industry in Canada.

Recognize flood damage before purchase According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, flooding is one of the more common types of natural disaster across the globe. In fact, 40 per cent of all disasters around the world can be attributed to flooding. Flooding causes deaths and millions of dollars worth of property damage each year. After a particularly damaging storm, an influx of used cars may be available for purchase. Many of these vehicles have suffered some type of water-related damage. According to the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System, a federal database that tracks and reports vehicle title histories, after Hurricane Katrina scores of flooded vehicles were taken out of Louisiana to other states, where they were dried out, cleaned and readied for sale to unsuspecting consumers in states that do not brand the titles of flooded vehicles. Similar situations no doubt unfold after other catastrophic weather events, and it’s often up to buyers to ensure they aren’t purchasing a vehicle with water damage. Recognizing whether a car or truck has been damaged by flooding is not always easy and can take a trained eye. However, certain indicators can alert prospective buyers that a vehicle was once submerged in water. • Excessive rusting: Certain parts of a vehicle’s undercarriage will rust over time, especially after exposure to weather and salt
products used on roadways to combat slick surfaces. But excessive rust or flaking metal that would not normally be associated with a late-model vehicle suggests water damage. While examining the undercarriage, look for sediment, mud and plant matter that may indicate the car was once submerged in water. • Discolored carpeting: Check for water stains on mats, on carpeting and throughout the interior of the vehicle. Another warning sign is a used car with brand new upholstery, which may indicate the interior of the vehicle was replaced due to water damage. • Strange odors: Water damage can make a car smell like mold and mildew, not unlike a musty basement. A strong odor in the car or trunk may be a strong indicator of water damage. Also, a heavy aroma of cleaning solutions or air freshener is another telltale sign of past damage. • Brittle wiring: Wiring that has been exposed to water and then dried often becomes brittle. Check to see if interior wires in the dash are flexible. Turn on vehicle signals to verify they are working properly. • Fogging or water droplets: Water damage often leaves condensation behind in headlights and taillights. Fogging or droplets of water where they don’t belong may indicate water damage. • Water lines: Inspect under the hood
Don’t Cuss!
for evidence of water. Rising water may stain metal components or leave behind a noticeable line after receding. Further evidence is diluted or milky motor oil or engine fluids that have been compromised by water infiltration. Upon receiving insurance compensa-
tion for flooded cars, vehicles may be refurbished and resold to unsuspecting buyers. While problems associated with vehicles damaged by water may not be immediately apparent, they can present themselves over time, potentially leaving new owners with an unreliable, possibly dangerous vehicle.

How to cut commuting costs A daily commute can be physically stressful, but many people find their daily trek to work financially taxing as well. Commuting costs have risen considerably over the last decade-plus, as higher fuel costs have eaten into many household budgets. But commuters accustomed to grinning and bearing it with regard to their daily grind might be surprised to learn that there are some ways they can cut their commuting costs and possibly even reduce some of the physical stress stemming from their daily odysseys to and from the office. The following are a handful of ways to trim the costs of your daily commute. • Establish a ridesharing program at your office. Research from the Center for Transportation at the Washington Policy Center in Seattle has shown that carpooling to work can be as much as 61 per cent cheaper
than driving alone. Many highways feature commuter lanes that are exclusive to vehicles with two or more passengers. Veteran commuters know that such lanes tend to be the least congested lanes on the highway, so taking advantage of the commuter lane by sharing rides with one or more coworkers can save time as well as money. The benefits of ridesharing are numerous, and include saving money on fuel (sharing driving duties with just a single coworker immediately cuts your commuter fuel costs in half); extends the life of your vehicle by reducing daily wear and tear; and also allows you one or two days a week to unwind during your commute while someone else takes the wheel. • Ride a bike. Admittedly, men and women who aren’t entirely healthy or those who live especially far away from the office or in regions where the weather is often unpleasant may not

be able to turn their bicycles into tools for cutting the costs associated with their commutes. But riding a bicycle to the office each day will cut your commute-related fuel costs by 100 per cent while also providing a boost to your cardiovascular system. Regular cardiovascular exercise has been shown to reduce risk a person’s for various conditions, including heart disease, while also reducing stress. Even riding a bike to the office twice a week can cut your commuterelated fuel costs by 40 per cent, so if cycling to work is a realistic possibility for you, give it a try. • Propose the idea of telecommuting to your employer. Many employers have grown more lax with regard to employees working from home. Some employers recognize that less strict telecommuting policies make for happier and more loyal employees, who can drastically reduce
their childcare costs in addition to commuting costs by working from home. In addition, employers can benefit by moving into smaller offices with more affordable rents. Telecommuting one or two days a week can save you a substantial amount of money, so propose the idea to your employer, even suggesting a trial period to see if it’s a viable option before either side makes a full commitment. • Change your hours.
Technology has made it easier than ever before for companies to abandon the typical 9-to-5 workday. Employees can now connect to company networks via external server connections at any time of day and even contact one another via email applications on their smartphones regardless of the time of day. Flex time, in which employees are allowed to work flexible schedules so long as their work is getting done, enables

Save money at the pump EFFICIENCY TIPS (NC) What would you do with an extra $500 a year in your pocket? How about an extra $2,500 over five years? That’s how much you could be saving if you were to start eco-driving, says the Office of Energy Efficiency for vehicles at Natural Resources Canada (based on a $1/litre of fuel). Eco-driving, a concept that has been extensively researched in Europe is actively supported by Canada as a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. For those who adopt it, eco-driving has the potential to reduce fuel consumption by up to 25 per cent, putting more money in your pocket right away. With more than 20 million vehicles on the road in Canada, that represents billions of litres of fuel that could be saved annually, not to mention a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and consumer savings. So what exactly is ecodriving? Canada’s Office of Energy Efficiency boils it down into five simple steps: • Accelerate gently. The harder you accelerate the more fuel you consume. In the city, you can conserve
fuel by easing onto the accelerator pedal gently and gradually. Pretend there’s an egg under the gas pedal and an open cup of coffee on the dash. Try to drive without breaking the shell or spilling the coffee and you’ll be good to go. • Maintain a steady speed. Be consistent. Unintentional dips in speed and sudden bursts of acceleration take a toll on your tank and your wallet. In fact, tests show that varying your speed up and down between 75 km/h and 85km/h every 18 seconds can increase your fuel use by 20 per cent. Use cruise control whenever possible. • Anticipate traffic. Read the road ahead, anticipate road disruptions, monitor the movements of pedestrians and other vehicles and keep a comfortable distance between your vehicle and the one in front of you. • Coast to decelerate. Coasting to a stop with your foot off the gas pedal is like driving for free. By anticipating traffic slowdowns as early as possible, you can decrease your speed, conserve fuel and save money
by simply taking your foot off the accelerator. Today, most vehicles are equipped with fuel-injection systems that automatically shut off the flow of fuel to the engine when the accelerator is fully released. • Avoid high speeds. Even if you have a need for speed, slow down. Most cars, vans, SUVs and pickup trucks operate most fuel efficiently when travelling between 50 and 80 km/h. Anything above this optimal speed zone and vehicles consume increasingly more fuel the faster they go. For example, if it takes $10 worth of fuel to drive a certain distance at 100 km/h, it would cost $12 to travel that same distance at 120 km/h. That’s like throwing a toonie out the window every 100 km. You can visit the NRCan website at www. vehicles.gc.ca or call 1-800387-2000 to learn more about EnerGuide Label for Vehicles and the annual Fuel Consumption Guide. Both of these publications explain everything there is to know about eco-driving and its benefits to consumers and to the environment.

Hong Kong police violence against protesters sparks outrage as Beijing’s patience thins HONG KONG - Hong Kong police battling activists for control of an underpass in the dead of night Wednesday sparked public anger after officers were seen kicking a handcuffed protester in the worst violence since street demonstrations for greater democracy began more than two weeks ago. Officers armed with riot shields, batons and pepper spray knocked activists to the ground, dragging dozens away, and tore down barricades protesters used as roadblocks around the underpass outside the government’s headquarters. Outrage over their aggressive tactics exploded after local TV showed officers taking the protester around a dark corner and kicking him repeatedly on the ground. It’s unclear what provoked the attack. Local Now TV showed him splashing water on officers beforehand. “Hong Kong police have gone insane today, carrying out their own punishment in private,” said pro-democracy lawmaker Lee Cheuk-yan. “Hong Kong’s values and its rule of law really have been completely destroyed by police chiefs.” Police spokesman Steve Hui said seven officers who were involved have been temporarily reassigned, and that authorities will carry out
an impartial investigation. Beijing, meanwhile, issued its harshest condemnations yet of the protests, calling them illegal, bad for business and against Hong Kong’s best interests. The central government has become increasingly impatient with the demonstrations, the biggest challenge its authority since China took control of the former British colony in 1997. A front-page editorial Wednesday in the People’s Daily, the ruling Communist Party’s mouthpiece, condemned the protests and said “they are doomed to fail.” “Facts and history tell us that radical and illegal acts that got their way only result in more severe illegal activities, exacerbating disorder and turmoil,” the commentary said. “Stability is bliss, and turmoil brings havoc.” However, there were no signs that the central government was planning to become directly involved in suppressing the demonstrations, which have marshalled opposition to plans for a pro-Beijing committee to screen candidates in Hong Kong’s first election to choose the city’s chief executive in 2017. The protesters also want the current leader, deeply unpopular Leung Chun-ying, to resign. The demonstrations have posed an unprecedented challenge to the government,

Painting
and it is unclear when and how the crisis will be resolved. Leung, who described the protests as being “out of control,” told reporters that officials are willing to talk to protesters, but reiterated that Beijing will not drop the election restrictions it imposed. He cancelled a leader’s questions session at the Legislative Council on Thursday, citing security risks. The police operation early Wednesday came hours after a large group of protesters blockaded the underpass, expanding their protest zone after being cleared out of some other streets. The protesters outnumbered the police officers, who later returned with reinforcements to clear the area. The underpass borders the city government headquarters and is close to the main protest zone straddling a highway on the opposite side of the complex. Demonstrators appeared to storm the short tunnel in reaction to police attempts over the past two days to remove barricades on the edges of the sprawling protest zone. Police said they had to disperse the protesters because they were disrupting public order and gathering illegally. Hui, the police spokesman, said five officers were injured in the commotion, and that police arrested
45 demonstrators during the clashes — none of whom were injured. But local television showed a video of a group of plainclothes police officers taking a man around the side of a building, pushing him to the ground and kicking him. Local legislators and activists identified the protester as Ken Tsang, a member of a prodemocracy political party. Tsang, through his lawyer Tanya Chan, alleged that officers also slapped him after he was taken to a police station. Activists circulated photos of bruises on his face and back. “Some of us were sleeping in the park when more than a hundred of them ran toward us with torches as if they’re trying to blind us temporarily. We were not prepared for how aggressive they were,” said protester Simon Lam, 22. After initial attempts to disperse protesters with tear gas and pepper spray two weeks ago, police have adopted a different strategy of chipping away at the three protest zones by removing barricades from the edges of the occupied areas in the early morning, when the crowd numbers are usually lowest. But Wednesday’s raid was the most violent so far, with police charging the protesters and dragging them
away. One officer ripped a facemask off an activist before spraying him with pepper spray, according to a video on the South China Morning Post newspaper’s website. Positions on both sides have been hardening since the government called off negotiations last week, citing the unlikelihood of a constructive outcome given their sharp differences. Beijing is eager to end the protests to avoid emboldening activists and others on the mainland seen as a threat to the Communist Party’s monopoly on power. In language freighted with political symbolism, Zhang Xiaoming, director of the central government’s liaison office in Hong Kong, was quoted as telling Hong Kong legislators at a banquet Tuesday that the protest
movement “is a serious social and political incident.” Zhang said the movement challenged Beijing’s authority and had caused the city to suffer huge economic losses. It had “hurt the basis of Hong Kong’s rule of law, democratic development, social harmony, international image and its relations with the mainland,” he said. Zhang called for an end to the protests as soon as possible to avoid further losses to Hong Kong’s citizenry. But Lam, the student protester, said he was bracing for more tensions as students’ distrust of police grows. “Now there is a feeling we are not just here to fool around or just to sit peacefully. We are feeling more prepared. We have become more united in building defences,” Lam said.

US government reports 2014 budget deficit drops to $483 billion, lowest of Obama’s presidency WASHINGTON - The deficit for the just completed 2014 budget year was $483 billion, the lowest of President Barack Obama’s six years in office, the U.S. government reported Wednesday. It’s the lowest since 2008 and, when measured against the size of the economy, is below the average deficits of the past 40 years. The deficit equaled 2.8 per cent of gross domestic product, which is the economy’s total output of goods and services. By comparison, the deficit for 2013 was $680
billion, or 4.1 per cent of GDP. Here’s an easier way to understand why the new numbers are good news: The government borrows 14 cents for every dollar it spends; six years ago, it was 40 cents. “This is a return to fiscal normalcy,” White House budget director Shaun Donovan said. But there could be trouble ahead. The retirement of those in the baby boom generation, born in 1946 to 1964, is projected to spike the deficit in coming years. The Congressional

Budget Office warns that the current trajectory is unsustainable and eventually could lead to a fiscal crisis. For now, slow growth in government spending, including on health care, and increased tax revenues have combined to produce rosier deficit numbers. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew said it’s an indication the economy is far healthier than when Obama became president in January 2009. Lew hailed “the most rapid reduction in the
as a 2011 budget pact with Republicans that sharply curbed agencies’ operating budgets. Obama also engineered a tax increase on upper bracket earners at the beginning of last year. The improved deficit picture has sapped much of Washington’s urgency
to curb red ink even more. Since the tax increase at the beginning of 2013, the GOP-controlled House and Obama have steered clear of further large-scale efforts to reduce the deficit. Instead, a budget deal last December reversed agency budget cuts known as sequestration.

budget deficit since World War II.” Obama inherited an economy in recession. The deficit topped $1 trillion for each of his first four years in office, including a record $1.4 trillion in 2009. “Our economy is better off now than when the president took office by almost every measure,” Lew said. Much of the slower growth in spending is due to lower-than-expected health care costs as well

Second health worker who tested positive for Ebola was in isolation within 90 minutes DALLAS - A second health care worker at a Dallas hospital who provided care for the first Ebola patient diagnosed in the U.S. has tested positive for the disease, the Texas Department of State Health Services said Wednesday. The worker at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital was monitoring herself for symptoms of Ebola, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said. The unidentified woman reported a fever Tuesday. She was in isolation within 90 minutes, Jenkins said. Health officials said the worker was among those who took care of Thomas Eric Duncan, who was diagnosed with Ebola after coming to the U.S. from Liberia. Duncan died Oct. 8. The department said a preliminary Ebola test was conducted late Tuesday at a state public health laboratory in Austin, Texas, and came back positive during the night. Confirmatory testing was being conduct-
ed at the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. Officials said the health care worker was interviewed to quickly identify any contacts or potential exposures. It said others who had interactions with the worker or possible exposure to the virus will be monitored. It’s not clear how the second health care worker contracted the virus, and authorities declined to say what position she holds at the hospital or the type of care she provided. Officials have said they don’t know how the first health worker, a nurse, became infected. But the second case pointed to lapses beyond how one individual may have donned and removed personal protective garb. “An additional health care worker testing positive for Ebola is a serious concern, and the CDC has already taken active steps to minimize the risk to health care workers and
the patient,” the CDC said in a statement. “What happened there (in Dallas), regardless of the reason, is not acceptable. It shouldn’t have happened,” Anthony Fauci, director of the Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases of NIH, said on MSNBC on Wednesday. Fauci said he envisioned the CDC taking “a much more involved role” in establishing the proper training protocols for Ebola cases. The CDC said its experts had taken part in interviewing the second health care worker to identify any contacts or potential exposures in the community. Dr. Tom Frieden, head of the CDC, has acknowledged that the government wasn’t aggressive enough in managing Ebola and containing the virus as it spread from an infected patient to a nurse at a Dallas hospital. “We could’ve sent a more robust hospital infec-
tion control team and been more hands-on with the hospital from day one about exactly how this should be managed,” he said Tuesday. Frieden outlined new steps this week designed to stop the spread of the disease, including the creation of an Ebola response team, increased training for health care workers nationwide and changes at the Texas hospital to minimize the risk of more infections. “I wish we had put a team like this on the ground the day the patient — the first patient — was diagnosed. That might have prevented this infection,” Frieden said. The stark admission came as the World Health Organization projected the pace of infections accelerating in West Africa to as many as 10,000 new cases a week within two months. In a conference call late Tuesday, the nation’s largest nurses’ union described how the patient, Duncan, was left in an open
area of the emergency room for hours. National Nurses United, citing unidentified nurses, said staff treated Duncan for days without the correct protective gear, that hazardous waste was allowed to pile up to the ceiling and safety protocols constantly changed. RoseAnn DeMoro, executive director of Nurses United, refused to say how many nurses made the statement about Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, but insisted they were in a position to know what happened. A total of 76 people at the hospital might have been exposed to Duncan, and all are being monitored for fever and other symptoms daily, Frieden said. Nurse Nina Pham contracted the virus while caring for Duncan. Health officials are monitoring 48 others who had some contact with Duncan before he was admitted the hospital where he died. Frieden said some of the world’s leading experts
on how to treat Ebola and protect health care workers are in the new response team. They will review issues including how isolation rooms are laid out, what protective equipment health workers use, waste management and decontamination. In Europe, the WHO said the death rate in the outbreak has risen to 70 per cent as it has killed nearly 4,500 people, most of them in West Africa. The previous mortality rate was about 50 per cent. Pham, 26, became the first person to contract the disease on U.S. soil as she cared for Duncan. She released a statement Tuesday through Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital saying she was “doing well,” and the hospital listed her in good condition. She has received a plasma transfusion from a doctor who recovered from the virus, and the hospital CEO said medical staff members remain hopeful about her condition.
