Cheers to the City and snowplow workers for cleaning Petterson Drive and keeping it safe for everyone.

Cheers to the woman who put on a great gluten-free seminar recently. The information and guidance was very valuable and was liberating to see how easy this transition from “regular� eating to gluten-free eating really can be! Cheers to weekly suppers at the inlaws. Cheers to the City for finally cleaning snow off the streets in the residential areas. The deep ruts had been making it very difficult to drive.

Jeers to the bank who has lost yet another valuable employee. The only thing worse than the loss of valuable tenured staff is the inexperienced and customer-service-lacking people they are filling those positions with. Jeers to the person who wrote in saying “NOBODY CARES� about the Jeers section. Jeers to the irresponsible person who is walking their dog on Milne Crescent and not cleaning up after the dog has gone to the bathroom in people’s yards, on the roadway and sidewalks. Biodegradable poop bags are available for a very low price. Jeers to the greed that put a five-unit condo where the Odd Fellow’s Hall used to be. A little less greed and a lot more tape measure please!

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) It could be risky to push for a project you believe in but others are wary of. Never mind. If you trust your facts, follow your courageous Aries heart and go with it. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your enthusiasm sparks renewed interest in a workplace project that once seemed headed for deletion. Support from supervisors helps you make all necessary changes. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A colleague might be a bit too contrary when your ideas are being discussed in the workplace. A demand for an explanation could produce some surprises all around. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Try to avoid distractions at a time when maintaining stability in a fluid situation is essential. There’ll be time enough later for the Moon Child to enjoy some well-earned fun and games. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Stop wasting energy licking your wounded pride. Instead, put the lessons you learned from that upsetting experience to good use in an upcoming opportunity.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You love being busy. But try not to make more work for yourself than you need to. Get help so that you don’t wind up tackling tasks that are better left to others. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your usually balanced way of assessing situations could be compromised by some so-called new facts. Check them out before making any shift in judgment. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You might feel angry over an unexpected shift in attitude by someone you trusted. But this could soon turn in your favor as more surprising facts come out. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Love rules everywhere for all amorous Archers, single or attached. It’s also a good time to restore friendships that might have frayed over the years. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) It’s not always easy for the proud Goat to forgive past slights. But clearing the air could help establish a better climate for that important upcoming venture. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Good news: Your skillful handling of a recent matter has won admiration from someone who could be influential in any upcoming decisions involving you. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You continue to welcome new friends into the widening circle of people whom you hold dear. One of those newcomers soon might have something special to tell you. BORN THIS WEEK: You love nature and inspire others to follow your example of concern for the planet’s well-being. (c) 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

The school community council is nearing the end of their fundraising campaign in an effort to add to the school’s playground equipment. The increase in the student body has meant classes have to sign out playground equipment each day.

Equipment upgrade necessary for growing school population With student bodies in Estevan growing steadily, playground equipment at the city’s elementary schools must keep pace. St. Mary’s School is dealing with issue of equipment for its students as they near the end of their fundraising campaign for new equipment for the playground. Nadine Linthicum, of the school’s community council, has been involved in the fundraiser since it started in 2011, and she said the school’s growing number of students is the main concern for the current playground set-up. “What we have is in good shape, but the reason we decided to start the fundraiser is just the capacity,� said Linthicum. “There’s just not enough equipment for the number of kids we have now.� The school has increased its population in the last few years after incorporating pre-kindergarten as well as experiencing the regular growth in school size that others are seeing in Estevan. Linthicum said the equipment is fairly new, but is meant to accommodate a school of about 100-student

capacity, while St. Mary’s now has about 250 students. St. Mary’s and the SCC are looking to purchase a primary play structure, which will be accompanied by a few tire swings. There are already tire swings at the school, but Linthicum said they are very popular and they could use more. “There are a couple of tire swings at the school now, but they actually have a class list for you can play on the tire swings because they’re so popular. Each day a different grade gets the tire swings. It would be nice not to have to limit them on that.� The main play structure will include some slides and climbing equipment. The school is hosting its next fundraiser Feb. 1 and is getting the students involved with a dance-athon. The event is part of the SCC’s plan to promote wellness and allow the students to participate in the fundraiser for their new equipment. Linthicum said the students had input on what they wanted from the new equipment, and unsurprisingly, tire swings

were on the top of their list. “Tire swings was by far the biggest request, and through the last year and a half we’ve had kids come and ask, ‘How’s that coming along?’And they’re very curious as to what’s going on.� The new equipment will add to what is already on the school’s property so the students should have plenty to do outside without having to sign up for its use. The students have been raising pledges for the Feb. 1 dance-a-thon and grades will be taking turns showing off their moves throughout the day. Once the dance-a-thon is completed, Linthicum said they’ll see how much they have in the pot and try to buy the biggest play structure that is available in their price range. They are

taking into consideration costs of shipping and any groundwork as well. So far the school has raised $31,665, and they have a goal to push that number closer to $40,000. She noted they received a community grant for $10,000 from the Spectra Foundation, and there is a caveat that those dollars must be spent by this March. She said they may have one final fundraiser but nothing yet is planned. “We thought we’d at least get the equipment bought, and if we can maybe do one more fundraiser before the end of the year for the groundwork in the fall (we may do that),� added Linthicum. Anyone wishing to make a donation to the new equipment may contact the school by calling 634-3541.

As the world continues to become more paperless, the postal network gets a lot of scrutiny. Postal service continues to be a bit of a hot-button issue for everyone. Something as inherently boring as snail mail can really stir up people, it seems. New Zealand is considering a plan to move mail delivery to only three days each week. Like many postal services, theirs appears to be bleeding money. As someone who sends things through the mail on an annual basis, I would have no problem with Canada Post eliminating a day or two of their mail delivery each week. I also wouldn’t have a problem with them jacking up the price of stamps to ensure their business does well. I don’t know if the price of a stamp accurately reflects the costs to send a letter, considering man-hours, fuel and the dwindling number of letters entering the system. It seems like a deal too good to be true. The problem with mail is that we live in a world of technology, and the mail system is very low-tech. People certainly don’t communicate via letters any more. I can vaguely remember when e-mail started becoming the norm for written communication. There were people who considered a hand-delivered letter more personal, for I assume nostalgic reasons rather than logical ones.

Jordan Baker Thoughts From My Fingers The postal service is becoming pretty obsolete. Things will always need to be shipped, and that’s what shipping companies are for, but mail delivery is a bit of a dinosaur. It’s the same as newspapers. It was real nice for me to hear a few years ago, sitting in a journalism class as the world of print media crumbled everywhere. Journalists were being laid off en masse as I trained for a job in which my prospects involved fi ghting for jobs with recently laid-off reporters from around the country. I got into print media as it was becoming obsolete, and while it won’t completely die, perhaps ever, it is definitely nowhere near as necessary as it once was. That’s what the postal service is dealing with. Businesses may still want daily postal traffic, and that may need to be available, but delivering to every house in every city every day, is an unnecessary waste. New Zealand may be the next country to re-organize its postal service,

but we can all definitely look at ways of revamping the outdated mail system. In other news, in a world where we require the use of our memories less and less, the World Memory Competition helps prove the brain is an incredible tool. During the past championship, Germany’s Johannes Mallow memorized a number with 2,245 digits in an hour. It took him just five minutes to memorize a 500-digit number. After 30 minutes he could string a binary sequence to the 3,954th digit. It’s impressive, considering I have difficulty remembering seven-digit phone numbers. That wasn’t always a problem. I still remember phone numbers I dialled regularly as a kid, but I have the office phone number scrawled on a piece of paper at my desk to ensure I always correctly give it when leaving a message for someone. With phones or computers storing so much data for us, what we really need to remember is how to find that information. I remember how to track down a phone number in my phone, so remembering a number is pointless now, except for international memory competition fame. Even still, learning some advanced mnemonic techniques would be an interesting skill to have in the repertoire.

We can take control of food security Food security and hunger among Canadians are issues that I constantly struggle getting my head around. I tend to get the idea of someone living on the streets of Toronto, or Vancouver, likely to face hunger as an all too regular occurrence. People without a fixed address and no income quickly fall through the cracks of most special services supports and have limited ability to affect change directly. In Saskatchewan, hunger certainly exists. Anyone doubting that only needs to talk to the Salvation Army about the seemingly ever-longer lists of those needing Christmas hampers, or to those operating food banks, which seem to face a growing need as well. Certainly, as housing costs rise in reaction to a stronger economy and utility rates seem to continually inch higher, wages are hard-pressed to keep pace, and so household budgets get stretched. And that can mean the larder goes empty as month-end nears. But the question is, why is the larder empty?

Calvin Daniels Trader Agriculture Columnist I recently sat down for a coffee with Warren Crossman, one of the founders of the Assiniboine Food Security Alliance, a Yorkton and area organization dedicated to helping people take greater control of their own food supply. I remarked that in 25-plus years as a journalist, there are two things I have seen change in a city such as Yorkton. The first is that there was a time that a reporter in need of a photograph in the winter could drive down just about any residential street and find kids playing street hockey. Today you might burn a half tank of gas in search of that game. And in the summer, a drive down back alleys would have shown a large vegetable garden in most backyards. Again today, you can do a lot of

driving and barely find a backyard with a tomato plant or a row of radishes. Fewer and fewer people grow their own food. Fewer still have cold storage and freezers to prepare and store food for the winter. We have come to rely on a supermarket as our food source, making near-daily trips to fill the table. The shelves are full, but every bag of groceries comes with a cost attached - unlike a cold storage bin filled with vegetables from a person’s own garden. Even for those in apartments, there are garden options ranging from a community garden organized by the Assiniboine group, to the opportunity to talk to area farmers about a small garden area. There are opportunities to take greater control of our food supply and in so doing lessen our dependence on cash and products coming from other provinces and around the world. In small communities and cities, at least across the Prairies, food security is something in which we can have a direct hand if we only want to take the step.

The battle of the ants continues

Last week I mentioned that ants had been swarming the bathroom of my apartment. I figured I had the situation under control when I sprayed the ants with vinegar and they seemed to flee. I assumed I had won the war. I was incorrect. I woke up Saturday morning only to be greeted by a swarm of ants in my kitchen. It seems that sometime the night before, someone dropped a chocolate chip on the floor and didn’t pick it up. Now that I live alone, I have a fairly good idea who it was that dropped the chocolate chip, but I’m not a fan of placing blame. Though I was working on Saturday, I used my

lunch break to pick up the recommended tools for removing ants from your home: caulking gun, caulk, Borax, jam and an industrial bottle of vinegar. Armed with everything I needed to both barricade the ants and engage in biological warfare, I knew that by the end of the day, I’d be ant-free — or a crying mess of a human being. Because the latter was a very real possibility, I also picked up a pack of coolers and a bag of Hershey Kisses. And my boyfriend, because I have no idea how to work a caulking gun. So four hours later, he had the cracks in the kitchen and bathroom all sealed up and I had made the “con-

Tonaya Marr Maybe It’s Just Me coction of death�: a combination of Borax and jam, which apparently ants love, but is also super deadly. I also mopped all the floors with vinegar and water and then vacuumed everything for good measure. Just what a young couple wants to do on a Saturday night. A fun side note: I sprinkled cinnamon at the entrance to my bedroom.

Apparently ants hate cinnamon. I really have no interest in ants joining me in my bed, so a cinnamon barricade seemed reasonable.

5

Anyway, I woke up Sunday morning to a drastically smaller number of ants! And none in my bed, that I noticed. The remaining ants in the kitchen were hanging out in and around my jam traps, which I’m taking as a signal of their forthcoming deaths. So I’m tentatively optimistic that I’ve ended the ant problem for good. I acknowledge that I said this last time, but this week I really mean it.

And if I haven’t, I’m just going to pack up and move. I really don’t need a two-bedroom apartment anymore. And I’m starting to think this one is jinxed. Tonaya Marr has dreamt of ants every night since the first ants were noticed. She’s very, very ready for the pests to take off. If you have ant-removal advice, please contact Tonaya at Tonaya.marr@ gmail.com or send her a tweet @TonayaMarr.

Why does everyone watch the Super Bowl?

He She He She Said There are plenty of reasons people will gather around to eat chili, indulge in a drink or two and take in a football game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens. You may also know the game as Ray Lewis versus Colin Kaepernick or Harbaugh versus Harbaugh or simply the Super Bowl. I don’t know exactly what the stats are, but there are probably fewer people watching this game who

are fans of the NFL than who aren’t. I have watched many of these games over the years, and often there are about three people in the room who have watched an NFL game earlier that winter or fall. The rest are there because it’s something to do on a Sunday in which there is nothing else to do. That’s why many people do watch the Super Bowl. Nobody likes to compete with the game, so nothing else is planned on Super Bowl Sunday. The NFL pretty well has that day staked as theirs, even in Canada. Some people are interested in the game, even though the sideshows are so elaborate that they are a distraction while the game is going on. It makes the actual play on the field a bit of an afterthought. Whether you’re a football fan or your favourite team made the big game, that’s probably why you’re watching. There are many more reasons, however. Maybe you don’t like football. That’s fine, because if you like shopping, there is lots of that going on too. Commercials will be more prevalent than anything else this Sunday. Companies really want you to buy their products, and there is perhaps no larger audience available to convince than that watching the Super Bowl. If you want to buy some music, then listen up because there will be performers before the game, someone singing America’s national anthem, maybe with tears in their eyes, and at least one person, but usually several artists, performing some tunes at halftime. If you like what you hear, check them out. There are lots of things to buy on Super Bowl Sunday. —Jordan Baker

713 - 4th Street

I’ll be honest: I’m going to do everything in my power not to watch the Super Bowl this year. I’m sure it’s a great spectacle and super exciting, but I know in my heart that I have better things to do. Like laundry — or further ant-removal. However, there are forces beyond my control in play that often influence me into sitting down and watching at least a portion of the big game. My boyfriend might be watching the game, at least passively. That means that if we sit down to watch a movie together, he’s going to flip to the Super Bowl for the occasional update, just so he stays in the know. I accept this as one of his flaws, and I will likely sit around and wait to resume the movie. Or I’ll get sucked in by one of the commercials, which is another possible reason for me to watch the game. I know the commercials are fabled and blindingly expensive. Knowing that someone spent more money than I’ll ever make to put a commercial together for this game makes me curious, so if the game is on around me, I’ll hang out and watch for the inevitable breaks when the actual entertainment comes on. Another possibility is someone will be watching it during work and I’ll have no choice but to watch. Sometime our weekend newscasts are moved for NFL football, and if I’m working on the website that day, I have to stay until seven to finish posting the casts to the site. That basically guarantees that one of the male employees, or just the sports department as a whole, will have the game on. I’ll be sucked in by the commercials and the players’ tight pants, and I’ll have no choice but to watch. As you can tell, I’m thrilled about this upcoming sporting ritual. Actually, I should probably just find out when the game is so I can schedule sometime in the laundry room — or in any room, honestly, where there isn’t a male or a TV. – Tonaya Marr

U.S. natural gas exports will affect Canada What to do, what to do? This is the question facing the United States right now when it comes to natural gas exports. The decision, when it comes, will have impacts felt not only in the United States but around the world. These days, TransCanada’s pipelines are running at a much lower level than that of which they are capable. Shippers on their main line are being hit with higher tolls as a result of the lower volumes. It turns out the market for Canadian gas produced in the West is shrinking. It’s not due to global warming, either. People in the East, even south of the border, still need to heat their houses in winter. Canadian gas is being supplanted by much cheaper U.S.-produced shale gas. It’s driven the price of natural gas on this continent to the bottom of the barrel, to use a bad pun. Whereas 10 years ago there were concerns about soon running out of natural gas on this continent, the

Brian Zinchuk From the Top of the Pile revolution in horizontal drilling - combined with multi-stage fracking - has led to burgeoning supplies. The nation that couldn’t get enough gas is now looking at exporting it. It’s an appealing idea for producers. If you can liquefy it and ship it to another continent, you can potentially triple your return, or thereabouts. That’s a big deal in any business. But some Americans, particularly those in positions of power and influence, are saying, “Whoa! Hold on here! Let’s think about this for a minute.� Natural gas these days, and for the foreseeable future, is cheap on this continent, much cheaper than its energy equivalent for oil. That has a lot of people

looking at using it for a transportation fuel, supplanting diesel and gasoline. We’ve already seen that here in Saskatchewan, as CanElson Drilling has been converting many of its drilling rigs to run on compressed natural gas or diesel. While it could be cheaper at the pumps, what’s got the Americans thinking here is the competitive advantage cheap energy has for its industries, from petrochemicals to manufacturing. There’s a reason they call it the rust belt. The American Midwest, once filled with factories and middle-class workers with decent wages, whose suburban white-picket fenced homes were the epitome of the American dream, could use any advantage they

Recycle This Paper

could get right now. Cincinnati is currently focusing on tearing down abandoned houses instead of seeing new factories built. Even the iPhone is “Designed in California, assembled in China.� The Americans have found they can’t compete when it comes to the cost of labour. They can’t compete, some would say, on quality. But perhaps they could compete on energy. If their factory input costs, at least energy-wise, were a fraction of those in Japan, Thailand or China, then maybe, just maybe, they have a shot at pulling the country out of its economic malaise. Maybe if it cost less for their workers to drive to work using compressed natural gas cars, it would help. Maybe natural-gas powered electrical plants

will be cheaper than alternatives. Maybe, maybe, maybe. There are all sorts of issues that restrict exports. Existing free-trade agreements, for instance, mean the U.S. government theoretically can’t stop Canada or Mexico from buying U.S. gas. But since we want to sell them gas, and likely Mexico does too, I doubt this is a problem. But for countries that America does not have a free trade deal with, they can stop any exports they please. Should U.S. gas producers be prohibited from getting the world price for their energy production, just so manufacturers have a better go at it? These are not easy decisions. If they do choose to kibosh exports of natural gas, that could be good and bad for Canada. It will be

good for us in that the world price, without American gas, would surely be higher for our exports. But first, we have to start exporting to someone other than the U.S., which means a whole lot of export terminals would need to be built in a hurry. It also means that the vast majority of our exported gas will not be getting a good price since it is being exported to the American market. That has broad implications for the upstream industry, including drilling. Any way you look at it, the implications for Canada are going to be substantial, even though the question at hand is regarding American interests. Brian Zinchuk is editor of Pipeline News.

Fire traps Esterhazy miners underground for hours Provincial ESTERHAZY, Sask. - More than 300 miners were trapped underground for several hours after a fire broke out at Mosaic’s K2 potash mine near Esterhazy. The mine was shut down as crews battled the blaze that broke out about 10:35 a.m. Monday. The 318 miners raced to underground refuge stations for safety. It took around three hours for emergency rescue teams to put out the fire and another few hours for the smoke to clear. Brad DeLori says all employees were accounted for and there were no reports of injuries. About 5 p.m., the miners began coming up to the surface. DeLori says a piece of mobile mining equipment was the cause of the fire. National OTTAWA - Canada is providing $13 million in new humanitarian aid to help with food and health care for victims of the war in Mali. International Co-operation Minister Julian Fantino announced the additional contribution today after attending a global donor meeting in Ethiopia. Canada’s additional funds appeared to be a separate contribution from the more than $450 million for the military campaign in Mali against Islamist extremists that was raised by donors at the Ethiopian

conference. Fantino said Canada’s new contribution will help improve food security, reduce malnutrition, address emergency health care and provide other humanitarian assistance. The new funds will go towards food security, reducing malnutrition, emergency health care support, particularly for children, the minister said in a statement. “Building on Canada’s significant investments over the past year, Canada will continue its life-saving work in Mali through humanitarian and development assistance,� he said. *** TORONTO - Five big Canadian banks and a credit union were downgraded Monday by Moody’s rating agency, which believes they will be more vulnerable than in the past if there’s a major shock to the economy. The downgrades, which Moody’s had warned were likely to happen, reflect the agency’s ongoing concern that Canadian household debt has risen to

historical highs — putting pressure on the institutions’ mortgage businesses. “The Canadian consumer is leveraged almost to the extent that the U.S. consumer was ahead of the housing crash down there some years ago,� said Moody’s vice-president David Beattie. As a result, Moody’s thinks it’s likely that consumers will slow down their borrowing, a major source of business for the banks. There’s also a remote possibility defaults could jump to a dangerous level for the banks if there’s a major economic shock that causes a lot of unemployment and a dramatic drop in real estate prices, he said. “If we thought it was a higher probability, we wouldn’t rank the banks as high as we do,� Beattie said. He noted the five banks and the Quebec-based Desjardins credit union remain among the most highly rated of those tracked by Moody’s. Toronto-Dominion Bank (TSX:TD) is the highest rated of the six, at AA1 (down from AAA).

Scotiabank and Desjardins drop to AA2 (from AA1), CIBC (TSX:CM), Bank of Montreal (TSX:BMO) and National Bank (TSX:NA) slip to AA3 (from AA2). International WELLINGTON, New Zealand - Snail mail may be about to get even slower in New Zealand. The country’s postal service is considering cutting delivery from six days a week to three to cut costs as people increasingly turn to the Internet to pay bills and communicate. The island nation of 4.5 million is among many countries struggling to sustain a viable postal service. Mail volumes in New Zealand dropped by 24 per cent over the past 10 years and are forecast to drop by another 25 per cent in the next five years. New Zealand Post, the government-owned agency

that delivers the mail, on Tuesday proposed changing its charter to require a minimum three days delivery instead of six. The proposal is now open to public comment and would not likely be implemented before next year. The scale of the possible cutback has alarmed some consumers and the union that represents postal workers, which says it would cost hundreds of jobs and undermine the integrity of the postal system. Yet, in perhaps another sign of changing times, many seem ready to accept a reduced service. In an unscientific poll conducted by The New Zealand Herald newspaper, 50 per cent of respondents said they’d be fine with three-day-a-week delivery because they don’t get much mail anyway. Eighteen per cent said they’d be upset by the change, while

32 per cent said the postal agency should cut only Saturday deliveries. *** LONDON - The story in the Daily Mirror features a photo of an elegant aging monarch with the headline: “Queen Gives Up Her Throne to Son.� Then, in smaller type, “Easy, Charles... It’s Queen Beatrix of Netherlands.� The abdication of Beatrix sparked some speculation in the British press today about whether Queen Elizabeth, at 86, might follow suit and step down so her son Charles could become king. But commentators quickly noted that in the past Elizabeth — who seems to be in excellent health — had indicated that she regarded being Queen as a job for life. Charles, 64, has been heir to the throne since 1952.

Golf’s spotlight \ U H Y L O H D ' ] ] L 3 on No. 1 McIlroy ,$/ For the first time since the late 1990s, the earlyseason focus on the PGA Tour is on somebody other than Tiger Woods. For the past 15 years, it was Tiger coming off a dominant season, coming back from an injury, trying a new swing change, or hitting the headlines because of a lurid scandal and divorce from his Swedish model wife. No matter what was happening in his life or his career, it was Tiger this and Tiger that. It was almost as if nobody else existed. Was he bigger than the game itself? Absolutely. But this is 2013 and the professional golf spotlight this year is on Rory McIlroy, the 23-year-old Northern Irishman who already owns two major titles, one more than Woods had at the same age. With a famous girlfriend (Top 10 tennis star Caroline Wozniacki) and a brand new 10-year $200-million contract with Nike in his hip pocket, McIlroy is the new Mr. Golf, as well as owner of the No. 1 world ranking. Can

Bruce Penton Sports Columnist

Rory get comfortable enough with his new Nike sticks to hold on to his No. 1 position? As the season plays out, the McIlroy-Woods rivalry is bound to dominate the headlines, but there are other interesting storylines, too. The shaky economic situation in Europe has resulted in a number of bigname European Tour players joining the PGA Tour this year, so watch for Martin Kaymer, Nicolas Colsaerts, Peter Hanson and Ryu Ishikawa, among others, to have a significant impact on the money list. As for rookies this year, who knows? Last year’s rookie of the year, John Huh, was a “huh?� to most golf fans before he parlayed one victory and four Top 10s into $2.6 million and a top-30 finish for the season. Rookie Russell Henley won the first full-field event of the season, the Sony Open, and other freshmen such as Luke

Guthrie and Scott Langley bear close scrutiny. And, oh yes, Phil Mickelson, always trying to stay headline-relevant in the world of golf, said he was considering making “drastic changesâ€? to his lifestyle because of high taxes - in the 50 per cent range. With income last year of a reported $60.8 million, he was faced with having to get by on only $30 million or so. Out of touch? Out of bounds, Phil! • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Phil Mickelson - who makes about $30 million a year in endorsements alone - told reporters he will make ‘drastic changes’ because tax increases will eat more of his income. ‘Now, if you’ll excuse me,’he continued, ‘I just need to finish this ‘Will Putt For Food’sign I’m working on.’â€? • Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “Geneva College in Pennsylvania has a freshman basketball player who is 43 years old. He’s at that awkward age for a basketball player - too old to play college ball, too young for the Knicks.â€?

Spanish doctor says doping not limited to cyclists National MONTREAL - Now that the negotiations are over, P.K. Subban just wants to play hockey. The gifted defenceman, who missed training camp and the first four games of the NHL season because of a contract dispute, agreed to a two-year deal worth US$5.75 million with the Montreal Canadiens on Monday. “I’m happy to be at this point and I’m looking forward to reintegrating

with the team and helping them win,� Subban said on a conference call. “It was about getting a deal done that was fair to both sides.� Subban, who was a restricted free agent, will be paid a pro-rated $2 million this season and $3.75 million in 2013-14 for an annual salary cap hit of $2.875 million. The 23-year-old will join the team on Wednesday in Ottawa, but it was unclear if he would play that night against the Senators. If not, he will likely begin his sea-

son Saturday afternoon at home against Buffalo. Subban said he has stayed in shape training with the Ontario Hockey League’s Mississauga Steelheads and is ready to play. “I’m very anxious to get back on the ice,� he said. “I’m always ready to play.� Subban led the Habs in average ice time per game at 24:18 last season. He had seven goals and 29 assists in 81 games and was seventh among NHL defencemen with 205 shots on goal.

International MADRID - The doctor at the centre of Spain’s long-awaited Operation Puerto trial says athletes from sports other than just cycling used his blood doping services. Eufemiano Fuentes testified Tuesday that, although the vast majority of those who approached him were cyclists, others could have included “footballers, athletes or boxers.� He did not give any names. Also Tuesday, presid-

ing judge Julia Santamaria agreed with all the parties that American cyclist Tyler Hamilton would be called to testify as a witness. Hamilton has been outspoken in revealing details of doping in the sport. The judge also said she would consider written applications from prosecution and plaintiffs about what to do with scores of blood bags seized by police but not used as evidence. *** NEW YORK, N.Y. -

Major League Baseball said it is “extremely disappointed� about new allegations of performance-enhancing drug use against Alex Rodriguez, Melky Cabrera and other players contained in a newspaper report. The Miami New Times, a popular alternative weekly, said in a story Tuesday that it had obtained files through an employee at a recently closed clinic in south Florida that show Rodriguez purchased HGH and other substances.

IN MEMORIAM

In Memory of Harley Persson February 1, 2011 He had a smile, a pleasant way, A helping hand to all he knew; He was so kind, so generous and true. On Earth he nobly did his best, Grant him, Jesus, heavenly rest. - Sadly missed, never forgotten, Leonard and Helen Persson and family.

A natural beauty at 45. 5'7�, 132lbs, slim, very attractive with perfect skin. I find myself divorced with a 16 year old son. I am a country gal with old fashioned values. I don’t want a phone call at 9 o’clock at night saying “hey, do you wanta come over?". I have lots to do. I have a farm & horses, a business, housework & chores. My dad worked 17 hrs a day so he could put food on the table for his family. I want a man who wants an attractive, loving, compatible, supportive, passionate lady by his side at the end of the day.

THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 2013

Canadian winters are famous for being cold. The mercury keeps dropping, and suddenly, the bears aren’t the only ones hibernating! While it’s true that many of us spend more time indoors in the winter, there are also those who embrace the outdoors, the snow and cooler temperatures. For many parts of Canada, winter can mean bitter cold and winter storms that bring high winds, icy rain, or heavy snowfall. This winter, get prepared for whatever the season will bring, whether you are indoors or out. Follow these FIVE tips for staying safe in a Canadian winter: 1.           Get informed and go outdoors. a.           Are you eagerly awaiting your chance to hit the slopes? Dreaming of making tracks with snowshoes? Check out

AdventureSmart.ca to help you plan for a safe and enjoyable outing, whatever your passion. AdventureSmart.ca encourages everyone to follow the three T’s: Trip planning, training and taking the essentials for any outdoor adventure. Here are some key tips for winter adventures: b.           Before heading out, complete a trip plan and leave it with friends or family. You can find a template online at AdventureSmart.ca http://www.adventuresmart.ca/trip_safety/ planning.htm c.            Get trained for your adventure and stay within your limits. d.           Take survival essentials with you and equipment like a communications alerting device in case of an emergency. In avalanche terrain, for example, essential equipment includes a probe, beacon and shovel. e.           Wear a helmet when skiing, skating, snowboarding and snowmobiling. Dress in layers to avoid hypothermia and keep your head, ears and hands covered to prevent frostbite. 2.           Stay safe indoors Winter is a busy season for fires in Canada. That’s why it’s important to be mindful of fire prevention and safety. Make sure you have working smoke alarms, don’t leave burning candles

Please help keep our sidewalks safe so all citizens can enjoy a safe walk passage

Bylaw 89-1294 The occupier of property in the City of Estevan shall remove any snow, ice or other obstruction from the public sidewalk adjacent to such property within twenty-four (24) hours of the time such snow, ice or other obstruction appears on such public sidewalk.

unattended and if a pot catches fire while cooking, put a lid on it. Read more tips. 3.           Check your family emergency kit a.           You likely have some basic emergency kit items already in your home, such as a flashlight, battery-operated radio, food, water and blankets. The key is to make sure they are organized, easy to find and easy to carry (in a suitcase with wheels or in a backpack) in case you need to evacuate your home. b.           Use this checklist to help put your kit together. 4.           Keep an emergency kit in your vehicle Prepare an emergency kit and keep it in your vehicle. Refresh the supplies for winter. For example, add an extra blanket or new food items. Use the following list for ideas. 5.           Check weather reports When severe winter weather threatens, Environment Canada issues special alerts to notify Canadians in affected areas so that they can take steps to protect themselves and their property. Check out Environment Canada’s page on winter weather to learn more about the various weather alerts. Winter may be cold, but it doesn’t have to be dangerous -- stay warm and safe and enjoy your winter, inside and out!
