The SKIDCAR simulates a number of driving conditions, including icy winter roads. The Southeast Regional College held a demo day at the Estevan Airport on Sept. 27, to get the word out that this training is now available.

SKIDCAR lets drivers learn to control slippery situations Skid training is now available year-round in Estevan. The Saskatchewan Energy Training Institute (SETI) uses the open pavement at the Estevan Airport to train drivers how to handle their vehicles in a number of conditions, including ice, rain and gravel-road driving. The one-day skid training has been offered for the last seven months through the Southeast Regional College, and so far they have completed two sessions since June with clients from Alberta and have another set up in October. Ken Shackel, a TransCanada training consultant with SETI, said the training will benefit any company that has employees who do a lot of driving in company vehicles. He noted they began offering the local training because of a need that’s been identified in the area. “We knew the demand was there, and we felt it would increase, just with all the activity in the area,” he said. “There are more and more companies with people on the road. We knew there was an opportunity to build. Now we’re able to do this training locally.” Shackel said they have a great relationship with the airport, and the only “hiccup” is that they need to keep one extra staff person, who is trained as a radio operator, at the airport to communicate with planes coming in. He said the perfect conditions for the training are worth it though, as the pavement never has a puddle or gravel on it. They are setting up training locations in Weyburn, Carlyle and Manitoba as well. He said the training can

benefit any company that has employees doing a lot of driving. “It’s really anyone who’s offering any kind of fleet of vehicles. Any company operating a fleet of vehicles is excellent for this. The drivers in this program are all experienced drivers. Primarily they’re working for a company, and they’re driving a company vehicle.” He said what a company needs to recognize is the value of the employee as well as collateral interests. “There’s a $40,000 to $50,000 truck with the company logo emblazoned all over it. If they’re in any kind of accident, you’ve got downtime for the employee possibly, downtime for the vehicle and then you’ve got the costs, like whatever that does to your insurance,” said Shackel. In Estevan, the SKIDCAR system has been installed on a modern 4x4 SUV with electronic stability control that can be switched on and off, and is hooked up to outriggers on all four corners of the vehicle. Controls for the outriggers are in the front of the vehicle and can be used by either the driver or front passenger. The outriggers are operated via an hydraulic system, that raises and lowers the front wheels, rear wheels or both, simulating a different situation. When the back of the vehicle is raised, traction is lowered from the back tires and fishtailing is simulated. When traction on all tires is reduced, the dry and bare pavement underneath can feel very slippery indeed. Training has previously been done in cold weather on frozen lakes. The new SKIDCAR allows training year round.

Shackel said they teach proactive driving. “It’s about mitigating the risks, avoiding collisions and being proactive with the situation you see coming. Some companies utilize commentary driving. The idea of commentary driving is to make sure that the driver is looking beyond the grill.” That means looking at upcoming intersections, wildlife or road hazards. The driver then talks to the instructor about what they are seeing, so the instructor can tell if the driver is looking five metres in front of the vehicle or 40 metres. The classes can hold about eight students, with classroom theory in the morning and in-car instruction in the afternoon. Shackel said the classes can be beneficial to all employees at a company, especially as companies in the area hire more immigrants and people from the city. He noted they often have limited or no experience driving in wintery conditions and gravel roads that may seem like there is plenty of traction. Brenda McPhedran is one of three driving instructors, and was in the SKIDCAR during the demo day that SETI hosted at the airport Sept. 27. She said they teach a number of driving techniques during the one-day course. She noted that the first thing they often need to do is teach people to drive from the bottom of the steering, rather than the traditionally-taught 10 and two or nine and three hand positions. With hands on the bottom of the steering wheel, a driver’s hands won’t be blasted into his or her face if the air bag were to deploy in an accident.

The training is typically done at speeds between 20 and 40 kilometres per hour, and the course is set up as a simple figure eight as the driver moves inside pylons. After manoeuvring the course a couple of times, McPhedran will take traction away from the front wheels, followed by the rear, and then all four. She will also toggle the vehicle’s built-in stability control system to allow the driver to feel the differences of control when it is turned on. The vehicle is very portable, so Shackel said the training isn’t necessarily required in their own facilities. They can take the SKIDCAR to a company’s lot or work site, as long as there is enough good pavement to run the course. Training can be booked through the campuses in Estevan, 637-4931, and Weyburn, 848-2500.

The many origins of Thanksgiving I remember the tedious task in elementary school every year when October rolled around of writing a list of things I was thankful for. Thanks to Thanksgiving, this was an annual treat that we all got to do, but no 10-year-old really knows what they’re thankful for. I was thankful for the threeday weekend coming up and the two turkey dinners I was going to eat in a couple of days. So looking back, what I was really thankful for was having both sides of my family living close enough together that we could have Thanksgiving twice. Now I’m thankful for having a job, something that was particularly difficult to come by in my home province of Ontario, and thankful I have a roof over my head in Estevan, something that is easy to come by in Ontario. Like all holidays, the meaning of this weekend and how it came to be important is either lost to time or no longer relevant. I remember having a conversation with an American acquaintance about how this day actually started, and we agreed that it had something to do with Pilgrims. After doing a little research, I find that apparently we were dead wrong, and it actually has

Jordan Baker Thoughts From My Fingers more to do with the harvest. Well, I can still enjoy a good Thanksgiving, whether I know why the holiday exists or not. The other question I always had was who exactly I should be thanking for all these things I was being told I should be thankful for. I am used to thanking specific people who lend me a hand or call into the Mercury with a complaint about my column. Now that I know Thanksgiving is all about the harvest, I will thank the farmers for feeding me so well this weekend. Upon doing a little more research, however, I learned that the celebration in this country has been held for a number of different reasons since 1799, which was then to “signal victory over our enemy and for the manifold and inestimable blessings which our Kingdoms and Provinces have received and daily continue to receive,” according to the government’s Canadian

Heritage website. They don’t mention who our enemy was at the time. In 1802 we thanked God’s mercies. In 1814 we thanked the glorious victories over our enemies, for which a celebration was held in April, and then we held another Thanksgiving later that year in September for the “end of sanguinary contest in Europe and to give the Dominions blessings of Peace.” In 1833 we were thankful for the cessation of cholera, though I believe cholera is still around. I don’t know what we did to upset Russia, but peace was restored in 1856, and we held a Thanksgiving for that. We didn’t celebrate our thanks to the harvest until 1859, and didn’t recognize the harvest consistently until 1879. The first celebration after Confederation in 1872 was to mark the recovery of the Prince of Wales from an illness. Canadians, it seems, were thankful for just about anything back then as long as it meant eating turkey. I may have sounded pretty naive when I didn’t know why we celebrate a day called Thanksgiving, but I’m sure nobody reading this knew all of those reasons for previously recognizing this day.

Climate change leaving public radar Climate change is one of those issues which held media attention for a time, and while very little has been resolved regarding its impact, it is now garnering less attention because public interest is fleeting on almost everything these days. As a result, media tends to act much like a bunch of hummingbirds, flittering from one story to another in order to try to hold public attention. In the case of climate change, the public has not just turned off interest in the situation, but has actually been left questioning the validity of the concern being shown. The reasons the public have been left questioning the situation are varied. To begin with, climate change was initially heralded as global warming. In northern climes, the thought of warmer winters isn’t exactly one that sounds particularly threatening, and some very cold weather soon leaves people laughing at the idea of global warming. The terminology evolved to that of climate change, but by that time public interest had waned. There is also the problem that climate change is not something anyone sees as an immediate threat. Generally the experts are

Calvin Daniels Trader Agriculture Columnist talking about the real impact beginning to manifest itself more toward the middle of the century. Yes, there are things happening now. They include a receding ice cap that could destroy polar bear populations; insect pressure in Canadian forests; and more severe weather, such as one-in-a-century storms hitting the Canadian Prairies, but the real threat seems something much more distant. In my own case, something that may hit in 2050 is a little bit more difficult to focus on since I will need to hit 90 to be there to see it. Yes, there is concern for future generations, but the sharpness of the threat is still dulled. In terms of climate change, there is also something of a feeling of helplessness for the individual. When you read about governments being reluctant to take the big steps necessary to affect the factors leading to climate

change, the impact an individual may make seems to be of little use. Until the world leaders in countries such as the United States, China, India and other major nations go after major greenhouse gas emitting industries, change will not happen at a rate to change the trend. What we do on an individual basis, while important as a statement of concern through self-action, will not make up for coal-generated electric plants spewing dangerous chemicals into the atmosphere. Businesses won’t do it without a government push. The cost of reversing emissions is simply too high and will impact bottom lines too much to be carried out voluntarily by most. The same can be said for most individuals too. We often do not make the wisest choices in terms of our environment unless pushed in that direction through tax rebates and forced environmental fees initiated by government. Climate change is real, and until we all become more proactive, and that includes government, there is a feeling it is also inevitable. And that has the public often left trying to ignore the situation on some fanciful hope it will just go away, which of course it will not.

‘Unpopular’ hobby leads to 24-year show Since starting the Model Engineering Show 24 years ago, Kelly Tytlandsvik has grown the event from its modest beginnings with 12 exhibitors, made friends from all over Canada, the United States and the world and even been connected with relatives in Norway. That’s all thanks to this hobby of his that he said is not very popular, adding that “model builders are few and far between.� The 24th annual Model Engineering Show is slated to fill the Wylie-Mitchell Hall Oct. 15 and 16. Because there are several exhibitors from the United States, Tytlandsvik’s website makes it very clear that those who wish to attend remember the event is the weekend after “Canadian� Thanksgiving. Tytlandsvik started model building when he was a teenager. He first saw some engines running on a table at the Minot fair on a trip when his family was passing through. He was around 10 at the time. At 14 he began building his first model engine, which wasn’t finished until he was 20 years old. That isn’t the only time

Clarence Elias, of Edmonton, poses with his true-to-scale Harley Davidson motorcycle at a previous show. Elias is building three bikes simultaneously. One a cruiser, one a chopper and the third a police bike. Clarence has been a regular at the show and is planning on being in Estevan again this year. he’s worked on a project over several years. “It’s become a running joke in my house, and at the show, that the show’s been going for 24 years, and I’ve been working on this locomotive for 24 years.� And again the public will have to wait to see the finished product because the locomotive will not be ready for this year’s show

SHOPPING SPREE BRING IT ON ™

either. While Tytlandsvik won’t be presenting any new projects at the show next Saturday, he said “everybody always brings something new,� so there should be lots of different exhibits to check out. “The guys will have something new. There’s always a wide range of things that come to the show.�

When the show started, there were 12 exhibitors set up in the mall. Now there are anywhere from 40 to 60 people with model engines, coming from as far away as Germany, though he noted he doesn’t really know what will be showing up until people actually do appear on Saturday morning. The show started 24 years ago, largely because

the one that was held annually in Minot shut down. Tytlandsvik then decided to start one up in Estevan, and he said he is a little surprised that the show has grown and continued for so long. “I am surprised it got big, but it’s not too big. It’s still a very personal show. I know everyone and can call names out from around the room.� He has gone to a similar show in Detroit that is much less modest than his in Estevan. There is lots to see in Detroit, but he said, “It’s more personal here.� That’s important to Tytlandsvik, as he’s made many friends in the modelengineering community since starting the show and wants to keep the personal experience that the Estevan event gives its exhibitors. The show has given him plenty of exposure. He was featured in a model-engineering magazine a few years ago, and a man from Norway read the article. He wrote Tytlandsvik telling him he had been to Tytlandsvik in Norway and knew some of his relatives. He knew that he had relatives in Norway but didn’t know who they were, and

2 Days Only! =K^ 9M^ "

=_X 9M^ #

after a few correspondences back and forth with the Norwegian man, he got into contact with his relatives. They eventually came to Saskatchewan and visited all their relatives in the province. Tytlandsvik said they are happy to have experienced modellers and new people who are just getting started, because both kinds of people can learn from one another. “Anybody who’s built something, they should be proud of it,� he added. The engines he saw in Minot when he was 10 years old had a very profound impact on Tytlandsvik. He remembers what they looked like, and when he was in his 20s went about seeing if he could track them down. The model-engineering world is close enough that that wasn’t really a problem. He described the engines to some modellers from Minot and they knew exactly who the engines belonged to. “They said let’s go for a drive, and they were the same ones I saw when I was 10 years old. It was kind of neat to see it 12 years later.� Doors open for the exhibits at 9 a.m. next Saturday.

Fat tax: should fatty foods face more taxes?

He She

By: Jordan Baker

Denmark recently unveiled new taxes on foods containing more than 2.3 per cent saturated fats. While the idea is good, the execution is poor. Goods that are included under the new tax include packaged and processed foods, but also things like milk and oils. That isn’t the best way to target products that make us unhealthy. Milk probably shouldn’t be treated this way, whereas sugary drinks like fruit juice and soda account for a lot more negative health effects. The problem with a blanket tax like this is that it doesn’t consider that just because something is a little fatty, doesn’t mean it’s bad for you. There are lots of things that contribute to unhealthy people these days. Many are so unhealthy, I’ve heard this could be the first generation that can expect shorter life expectancies than their parents. Targeting fat isn’t even a very good solution when addressing obesity and poor health. Diets high in sugar and salt are just as bad. Instead of taxing salty products in Canada, we’ve just asked companies to voluntarily reduce the amount of salt added to them. I’m not sure Campbell’s has really gotten on board with that one. The biggest problem is that food that is good for us is more expensive than food that is not, and that is not the best way to encourage people to make healthy diet choices. Corn is the most subsidized agricultural commodity in the United States, and so corn winds up in almost all of our foods to make them cheaper. Potato chips and soft drinks are beneficiaries of cheap corn, while Brussels sprouts see none of that action. Foods full of corn syrup could maybe use some higher taxes. Denmark’s extra tax money is supposed to go to obesity-fighting measures, but the tax money should be going right into medical care. Medical costs keep going up, and part of the strain on the medical system is people who make poor dietary choices. In a system where health care is socialized, there has to be some expectation that everyone makes a commitment to live reasonably healthy lives. Adding tax revenue from unhealthy foods is the same as adding it from the sale of cigarettes. It’s necessary to counter the extra costs some people are voluntarily imposing on the medical system.

The “fat tax” in Denmark isn’t a bad idea. People love to save their money, and I can think of a handful of people who will probably buy a lot fewer Big Macs if the government demanded a bit more cash for the saturated-fat goodness. Considering there are actually more people in the world who are obese than who are starving, there’s definitely an argument to find a way to encourage healthier eating habits. And because the prices of groceries are already on the rise, this fat tax could have the potential to get people to put down the doughnuts and pick up the oranges. Rising gas prices have definitely had an effect on how often people are travelling, so why would eating fatty food be any different? CBC posted an article that said that food industry managers see this tax as a “bureaucratic nightmare.” I can see why. Here is a government that isn’t spoon feeding (punny!) business owners and is actually looking out for the well-being of its population as a whole. Judging by a poll also on the CBC article, it looks like a lot of Canadians are also in favour of a fat tax. Just over 53 per cent of nearly 1,000 who answered the question “Should Canada introduce a ‘fat tax’?” voted “Yes.” I guess we’re aware that we’re all slowly getting fat from spending all of our time typing on our laptops all night long and sitting in classrooms everyday – oh wait, well, maybe not all of us. The way I see it is that paying more money for better health is a no-brainer. It’s essentially the same as my weekly decision not to buy a bag of chocolate chips because I know I will eat them all before I get around to baking them into something delicious. Sometimes good health requires a sacrifice, and the fat tax means we have another reason (because heart health and your waist line don’t seem to be enough) to stay away from food that’s slowly killing us all. The fat tax could act as a motivator to leave the garbage on the shelves and protect our health. With this in mind, I’m going to get off my soap box and head to DQ because I am stressed and only Georgia Mud Fudge can fix this.

Just what is in this jack-in-the-box? As a photographer, I go through a lot of batteries. They probably make up a quarter of the total weight of my back-breaking camera bag, to the point where the next bag will have wheels. Each and every piece of hardware - from camera bodies and multiple flashes to flash triggers and the voice recorder - needs batteries. I never go anywhere without three batteries for each device. With such a high number of batteries and with such high usage, I glommed onto rechargeable batteries quite early in the game. My first digital camera would chew through two $5 batteries every 400 pictures, so I soon found a way to make a Frankencamera out of it and added an additional battery grip to it, allowing me to revert fully to rechargeables. I’ve had great success with Energizers NiMH rechargeables, and much less with Duracells. More recently, I’ve started using Sanyo’s batteries that have taken over the photograph world by storm - Eneloops. These batteries don’t hold as much charge as my Energizers - 1900 milliamp-hours (mAh) versus 2450 mAh. But unlike conventional NiMH rechargeables, they don’t discharge slowly over time, one or two per cent per day. They’ll hold three-quarters of their charge a year in storage. That’s really important when you are on a shoot and can’t afford to reach into the bag and pull out a set of dead batteries. Eneloops are really hard to get in Western Canada. Indeed, the only

supplier I have found was Dell, which puts them on spectacular sales every three months or so. The typical deal includes a fourcell charger and a number of batteries to go with it. The first time I ordered bunch of Eneloops, I got five one-hour chargers and a whole schwack of batteries in AA and AAA sizes. Each of these five sets came in the conventional hard plastic bubble-wrap packaging, dutifully explaining the capabilities of the batteries and chargers, as well as operating procedures. Yes, batteries may be ubiquitous, but charger operation is not. I got these specifically because they were one-hour chargers. A few weeks ago I came across yet another amazing deal on Eneloops through Dell.ca, so I ordered two more chargers and 12 more AAs and 12 more AAAs. Looking at the photos online, it appeared the chargers had LCD screens, which would indicate not only that they where high-end, but also the possibility of having the ability to monitor battery health and recondition old batteries, something I have a bucket of. Imagine my surprise when I opened up the courier-delivered package. Instead of the big, nextto-impenetrable, bubblewrapped packages, there were two cardboard boxes, and two crinkled brown paper bags. That’s it, except for this little note:

1. MOVIES: What famous Hollywood couple starred in the 1967 movie “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?” 2. TELEVISION: What was Lurch’s job on “The Addams Family”? 3. MUSIC: What is Jo Jo’s hometown in the Beatles’ song “Get Back”? 4. RELIGION: On what date is All Saints Day celebrated in Western

Christianity? 5. PHYSICS: Who is known as “the Father of the Hydrogen Bomb”? 6. PRIZES: Who won the 1939 Pulitzer Prize for history with his biography “Abraham Lincoln: The War Years”? 7. HISTORY: Which French king abdicated during the Revolution of 1848? 8. GENERAL KNOWLEDGE: When did the first Yankee Stadium open? 9. INVENTIONS Who invented the electric battery?

Dear Valued Member, Thank you for purchasing Sanyo’s Eneloop precharged rechargeable batteries - the next generation customer battery. The environment benefits from the use of rechargeable batteries vs. disposable single-use batteries. To stay on message, we have decided to package your batteries in a recyclable brown paper bag and recyclable packaging material. The Eneloop rechargeable batteries enclosed are brand new and under full warranty. Please enjoy your Eneloop Batteries Sanyo Canada Inc. I thought I had a jackin-the-box. What was inside was not expected. It’s great they went with minimal packaging. Reducing packaging is probably something everyone should do. But some basic information was missing. For instance, my new chargers had a sticker, not an LCD as the photo online seemed to indicate. They had no special abilities, save the fact they were NOT one-hour chargers. More like two, maybe three hours. The batteries tested out well. The chargers work, but at a much slower pace than I expected. The packaging got recycled, as intended. I guess if there’s no packaging, you may be more environmentally friendly, but you also may get a few surprises, as well. Brian Zinchuk is editor of Pipeline News.

International AMSTERDAM - The airline industry has presented its vision for a security ‘checkpoint of the future,’ which would speed up safety checks by sorting passengers according to the level of risk they pose. Under the system, airlines would make use of passport and other information to categorize a passenger as a frequent traveller, normal or ‘enhanced risk,’ and then steer them toward different checks. All passengers would walk through scanning corridors without stopping, unpacking their bags or stripping off clothing unless they trigger an alarm. Although the concept faces technical and legal pitfalls, International Air Transport Association chief Tony Tyler told reporters Tuesday that some elements are already in place, and others on the way.

Rivera’s “cutter” a saviour for Yankees Forty-year-olds playing major professional sports have almost always been hangers-on, oncegreat players merely playing out the string. Let’s cut to the chase and meet the exception Mariano Rivera of the New York Yankees. Rivera, a Panamanian, will be 42 years old this November and he is still Major League Baseball’s best, most reliable, and certainly most amazing considering his age - relief pitcher. This year, the ace closer saved 44 games for the Yanks, the fourth-best total of his career. Let’s also cut to the chase and zero in on why Rivera has defi ed every age-related athletic assumption and continued to mow down hitters and save victories for the Yankees, who are chasing yet another World Series title: The baffling “cutter.” Rivera’s “cutter” - a cut fastball - is the only pitch he throws. Normally, a one-pitch pitcher has about as much job security as a hockey player who goes over on his ankles, but that cutter is so dominating, so infuriatingly hard to hit, that Rivera has racked up 603 saves since 1996 - the most in baseball history. Hardballmechanics. com says that the break on Rivera’s pitch is “so late, the batter must commit to swing before he knows where it’s going. That late break is a product of maximum rotation and just the right finger pressure on the ball.”

Rivera throws with such ease of motion that his right arm seems like it could throw 95 MPH cutters for another 10 years. When he finally decides to retire, he will have established a saves’ record that will stand forever. Perhaps his longevity is due to his late start in baseball. Rivera was almost out of his teens before a scout noticed him, and even then he was a shortstop who pitched in an emergency one day when the regular starter didn’t show up. He underwent elbow surgery at the age of 23 and the Yankees thought so little of him, that they didn’t even protect him when the Florida Marlins and Colorado Rockies held drafts to stock their expansion teams. But something clicked for Rivera in 1995. He discovered his cutter. He’s been dominating hitters ever since. And will he be a first-year inductee in the Hall of Fame? Automatic, just like that reliable cutter. • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Of all the soccer teams to be fined because fans threw cups of excrement, why did it have to be Cologne? • Mike Bianchi of the Orlando Sentinel recalls a couple of his favourite quotes from legendary Clemson coach Frank Howard: - “I retired for health reasons.

He is just glad he doesn’t have a wife.” • RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “An Edmonton woman is reportedly suing Kraft for $100,000, alleging one of their products caused her to suffer 10 minutes of depression. In a related story, a Toronto man has launched a $600,000 suit against Brian Burke for one hour of watching the Leafs play.” • Currie again: “Canada stormed back late to tie Japan in their final game at the World Cup of Rugby.

Hope for Riders but season on wrong path As long as there’s still a glimmer of hope, there’s no use examining where this 2011 season for the Saskatchewan Roughriders went so horribly wrong. But we’re getting close to that point. In another game that the Green & White could barely afford to lose, they were blown out again this past weekend. A week after suffering a devastating 42-5 home loss to B.C., the Riders were pulverized 40-3 by the Stampeders in Calgary Saturday afternoon. Things looked good early when the Riders won the coin toss and got the ball to start the game. However, as has become the custom, the team couldn’t get anything going on offence and they were unable

to stop the opposition on defence. Back-to-back fumbles in the second quarter directly led to 14 points for the Stampeders who had a 23-3 lead at halftime. The Stamps were allowed to put themselves into cruise control in the second half as they sailed to the lopsided victory. The loss dropped Saskatchewan’s record to a West Division-worst 4-9 and has left them in a position where they need to win their final five games to have any hope at making the playoffs for a 10th straight season. “It sucks, to be honest with you,” said Rider kick returner/cornerback Tristan Jackson. “This is a great organization. It sucks. It really, really does. It’s just one of those

Rod Pedersen Rider Insider seasons. We got five games to go. We have to look forward, not look back.” The team has really no hope of catching Calgary or B.C., and now their only chance at the post-season lies in catching 7-6 Edmonton whom the Riders will visit twice in October including this Thanksgiving Day Monday at Commonwealth Stadium. However it’s this blogger’s fear that this team is going the wrong way as they plunge down the

home stretch. They seemed considerably uptight going into the Calgary game, perhaps too focused on the mountainous task that lay before them. It also appears they may even be doubting their own abilities, which is a first around here for a long, long time. “You gotta go home tonight and check yourself in the mirror and make sure you’re playing your heart out,” said Rider slotback Chris Getzlaf after the game. “A lot of guys are.

We have to regroup, obviously.” Orchestrating it all is Rider vice-president of football/head coach/ offensive co-ordinator Ken Miller who seemed as much at a loss for an explanation as anyone else after Saturday’s game. “No it wasn’t a pretty sight,” Miller stated. “We got beat on both sides of the ball. We couldn’t stop‘em on defence and then we moved the ball but couldn’t score. It has been two games without a touchdown and that’s intolerable.” A n d t h a t ’s w h e r e things have gone so intolerably wrong. Miller fired coaches Greg Marshall and Doug Berry with 10 games left and replaced them with himself. If the

team had put forth a gutsy effort in each game under Miller’s guidance, perhaps missing the playoffs could be excused by the team’s 1-7 start under Marshall. However the blow-out losses eclipse any defeats suffered under Marshall and the powers-that-be are now scratching their heads looking for answers. While there’s still a chance, that’s all the club can cling to. But all signs point to an early winter. “There’s always next week, but we have to find a way to get this team playing to the level which it’s capable of,” Miller said. It has left us wondering just what this team is capable of. (Rod Pedersen is the voice of the Riders on CKRM radio)

Many ways to treat atrial fibrillation DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Will you please discuss heart fibrillation? I take a medicine for high blood pressure. Medicines for atrial fibrillation made me wild. I also take warfarin for the fibrillation. I’d appreciate any information you have. -- M.L.

from the heart’s inborn pacemaker and producing each heartbeat. Fibrillation is a rapid twitching of the heart muscle. The atria are not contracting; they’re squirming. This decreases the heart’s pumping power. More dangerously, it

ANSWER: Atrial fibrillation is one of the most common heartbeat irregularities. The atria are the two upper heart chambers, the site of origin for the electric signal coming

also leads to clot formation. Blood stagnates in the squirming atria. Stagnated blood clots. Those clots can be carried in the circulation to a brain artery, which they block. That’s a stroke. That’s why you take warfarin (Coumadin) -- to prevent clotting (anticoagulation). Aging, high blood pressure, heart artery disease, heart valve disorders and an overactive thyroid gland are some of the things that lead to fibrillation.

The goals of therapy are to slow the heart, establish a normal heartbeat and prevent a stroke. Sometimes, simply slowing the heart will restore normal heart pumping without ending the irregular beat. Anticoagulation (blood thinning) is still needed. I can’t mention all the medicines used to control fib; there are too many. In place of medicines, a shock to the heart sometimes can restore a normal beat. Heart specialists also use a technique called ablation.

They thread into the heart a special catheter that has the capability of creating tiny scars with radio waves or ultrasound waves or by freezing tissue. The scars form an impenetrable barrier to the renegade electric signals causing fibrillation. The booklet on heartbeat irregularities discusses atrial fib and the more common abnormal heartbeats. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue -- No. 107W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. ***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Many months ago, my feet turned numb. The numbness has spread up to my knees. It has made me quite unsteady when I walk. My doctor can’t find a cause or treatment for this. Can you suggest anything? -- L.O. ANSWER: Your description fits peripheral neuropathy, a deterioration of nerve function, often of the leg nerves. The causes for it are many. Frequently, however, a precise cause can’t be determined. You need to make an appointment to see a neurologist as soon as you can. (c) 2011 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

CFL side judge replaced after call players heading to Guadalajara, Mexico, with previous experience at the event. The 28-year-old from Burnaby, B.C., led the team to a bronze medal at the 2007 Pan Am Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. *** OTTAWA-ANew Democrat MP has for the second time tabled a private member’s bill aimed at reducing concussions in amateur sport. Glenn Thibeault says the bill received overwhelming endorsements from sports and medical groups before it died on the order paper at the end of the last Parliament. The bill, entitled the National Strategy for Serious Injury Reduction in Amateur

Sport, would establish a database and guidelines aimed at reducing concussions and their effects. Thibeault says the bill would help bridge gaps between the medical and sports communities by bringing them together with regional organizations to consolidate best practices in Canada.

New Storm Windows

NATIONAL TORONTO - The CFL replaced side judge Rick Berezowski on Monday, three days after making a controversial pass interference call during a game. Montreal appeared to capture a 32-26 win on an incompletion in the end zone by Winnipeg’s Alex Brink on third-and-10 from the Alouettes’ 27-yard line Friday night. But the Bombers’ offence got a new life when Berezowski flagged rookie cornerback Greg Laybourn for the questionable call on Winnipeg receiver Greg Carr. That put the ball on the Montreal one-yard line and Winnipeg had enough time to try two final running plays

Q: I’ve had metal storm windows covering my older wooden windows for a few years now. These came with the house when I bought it, but I’ve never been happy with them. They rattle loudly and don’t seem to stop any wind. Can I affordably replace them? -- Harriet in Syracuse, N.Y. A: Replacing storm windows isn’t a huge task, but it can be a challenge to get good quality, longlasting windows installed on a budget. You’ll want to ask several questions when making the decision to replace those annoying rattlers. --Do I want metal or wooden storm windows? Should they be removable, or do I want combination windows that don’t have to be removed each season? --Can I purchase standard-size storm windows, or do I need custom-fit storm windows (often an issue in older houses with nonstandard window sizes)? --Are the storm windows I want good quality? Do the joints at each corner fit securely so that no light can be seen through them? --Do the windows open and close smoothly? --Can I install the storm windows myself, or would it be safer to have a professional contractor install them (especially if the windows are located on an upper floor)? --If I use a professional, what are his or her credentials? Is he licensed or certified to install windows? Does he provide a written estimate of the work to be performed? Does he listen to

Tom Higgins, the CFL’s director of officiating, said on the league’s website the call on Laybourn “was absolutely terrible.’’ *** TORONTO - Christine Sinclair has been named the Canada’s flag bearer for the opening ceremonies at the Pan American Games.

my concerns about budget and try to come up with an affordable solution? You may want to take a few weeks, or more, to decide on which storm windows you’ll purchase

and how they’ll be installed. That may mean another winter with your old storm windows.

It also faces approval by the mayor and county commissioners. *** AUCKLAND, New Zealand - Italy hooker Leonardo Ghiraldini was suspended for 15 weeks on Tuesday after admitting to eye-gouging

Ireland prop Cian Healy in the Rugby World Cup. Ghiraldini denied in a hearing his actions were deliberate in last Sunday’s match, but judicial officer Bruce Squire disagreed in making his decision. Eye-gouging was a topend offence with a minimum sanction of 24 weeks, and a statement from World Cup organizers said Squire had wanted to lengthen the ban because the current penalties weren’t proving a deterrent because eye-gouging’s prevalence hadn’t decreased. But taking into account Ghiraldini’s unblemished disciplinary record, the ban was reduced, keeping him out of rugby to Jan. 17.

Coke for breakfast • In 1811 and again in 1812, earthquakes caused the Mississippi River to temporarily reverse course. • You might be surprised to learn that about a million Americans say they drink Coca-Cola for breakfast. • Dominique Bouhours, a Frenchman who lived in the 17th century, was a priest, an essayist and a grammarian. The love of language may have been closest to his heart, though; it’s been reported that the final words he uttered on his deathbed were, “I am about to -- or I am going to -- die; either expression is used.” • The beaver is a rodent. • If you’re like the average adult, when you’re sitting in a relaxed position, you inhale about one pint of air with every breath. • The United States isn’t the only country that has an accolade to recognize excellence in the film industry. Here the

awards are known as the Oscars, but other nations have their own names for the awards: In Canada they’re known as Genies, in France they’re Cesars, in Russia they’re called Nikas, in Mexico they’re Golden Ariels, in Spain they’re known as Goyas, and in the United Kingdom they’re called Orange British Academy Film Awards. • Those who study such things say that millions of trees are planted accidentally when absentminded squirrels forget where they buried their nuts. • In ancient Rome, if you had a hooked nose you were considered to be a born leader. *** Thought for the Day: “Four-fifths of all our troubles would disappear, if we would only sit down and keep still.” -- Calvin Coolidge (c) 2011 King Features Synd., Inc.

Summer Still Lingers in Backyard Garden A purple petunia here, a rosemary sprig there and even arugula! My old college roomie, Becky, brought a wonderfully fragrant, wispy centerpiece to our house last week as an add-on to an impromptu Saturday-night family supper. Designed with lingering stems, herbs and blossoms from her backyard garden, it was arranged informally in a glass jar. So enchanting and simple. And perfect for a family activity you can enjoy this week. Even if your backyard or potted deck plants look droopy and lost to the season, poke around and you’ll uncover some lovely finds lurking under leaves and between tired summer growth. Plus, it’s a great way to give your kids a chance to explore and notice what’s going on in nature. Think of your discoveries as the “potpourri” of your garden. Becky’s picks were arranged in a charming, recycled 4-inch-tall and 6-inch-wide glass jar. Hearty dusty miller was placed at the base going out in all directions and became the support, like a flower frog. Along with your kids, look

for plants with similar strong stems, and then build a centerpiece using what you have with an eye to plants that are fragrant and will last a while. The final gems that will have staying power, even when the water has evaporated from your vase, include lavender, hydrangea, eucalyptus, sedum, roses, pods and herbs. Trim off the leaves from the base of the stems before you begin arranging them in a jar or vase. As you put each one in the water, play “name that plant or flower,” and have your child repeat what you say. It’s especially fun when the name rolls off your tongues nicely, like colorful and lovely “ranunculus.” Place on a pretty cloth runner at the center of your dinner table. You might also toss a handful of acorns you’ve collected on fall walks here and there. If you are having friends over for supper, add a colorful flat leaf

Feeling Your Oats One of my favorite breakfast foods is a bowl of oatmeal with dried fruit and brown sugar or maple-flavored agave syrup to sweeten it up. Most of us know we’re supposed to eat more whole grains. The difficult part is finding exactly which foods are 100 percent whole grains. Oatmeal is a whole grain because it contains all of the parts of the oat grain, including the bran, endosperm and germ. The interesting thing is that when we eat the oatmeal most of us grew up with, we aren’t eating the grain in its original form. We are usually eating rolled oats. Rolled oats have been steamed and flattened. That process decreases the cooking time so old-fashioned oatmeal can be prepared in 10 to 25 minutes. Quick-cooking oats that can be prepared in 3 to 5 minutes have been cut even more finely to reduce cooking time. Some people prefer steel-cut oats. The primary difference between steel-cut oats and rolled oats is the shape of the grain. Steel-cut oats are not flattened — the grain is cut into thirds and then packaged for sale. When preparing steel-cut oats, it’s

best to use 4 cups of water to each cup of oats. The cooking time for steel-cut oats is 30 to 40 minutes. Steel-cut oats have a chewy texture and hearty flavor. A popular product in many households is instant oatmeal. This cereal can be prepared quickly because the oat grain is partially cooked, dried and then rolled very thinly. If you read the label of many instant oatmeal packages, you will find that they have nutrients that oldfashioned and steel-cut oats don’t have. These nutrients have been added.Adisadvantage of some instant oatmeal is that a significant amount of sugar also has been added. Look for packages of instant oatmeal that contain less than 7 grams of added sugar per packet. All oatmeal is a good source of fiber, magnesium and thiamine. It also contains phosphorus, potassium, iron and copper. Oatmeal carries

a health claim on the food label because of the fiber content. The health claim is that oatmeal -- along with a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol -- may reduce the risk of heart disease. Oatmeal is a good source of soluble fiber, which acts as a sponge in the digestive tract to help remove cholesterol from the body. The recipe below for Homemade Instant Oatmeal allows you to control the amount of sugar and saves you money. It also includes a variety of tasty and nutritious variations so you can change the recipe to suit your taste. This simple recipe allows you to cook breakfast quickly, and wake up in the morning really feeling your oats!
