THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2012

Cheers to the new road down to Woodlawn Regional Park and a new walking path.

Jeers to the speeders and racers on King Street. Speed limit is 50 km not 60 or higher.

Cheers to the supporters of the Scouts Popcorn Fundraiser year after year. You make a lot of great programming possible for our youth in the city. Thank you Estevan!

Jeers to the person who dissed the hockey coaches. Maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the kid but the parent.

Give kids a chance to have fun and play for themselves and the team. They only get one chance at playing as a kid, and if they do it well, they will grow to be great givers. You could try helping out by being a good example for your kids and other parents.

Cheers to everyone who voted on Wednesday.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing quite like democracy in action!

Cheers to the band who played at Eddie Websterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last weekend. Those guys were great.

Cheers to pharmacists being able to refill prescriptions. It was a real help when I needed those meds.

Cheers to customers that hang up their cell phones when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve reached the checkout!

Jeers to the Department of Highways who has yet to cut the weeds from the roadside on Highway 47 and Highway 39.

Jeers to all the parents that let their 15- and 16-year-old children run around on the weekends until 4:30 a.m. (especially their daughters) and then wonder why they get in trouble.

Jeers to the fellow in the white GMC 4X4 who on Sunday took a pee in front of his truck in broad daylight while parked in the No Frills lot.

My kids donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to see that. You are dirty and disgusting.

Jeers to a local sports association for having a system that allows personal picks from coaches over selections based on talent.

Jeers for the advance polls being held in a tiny entryway at city hall. It was a zoo in there with about 20 people waiting to vote. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty sad when we have Spectra Place with lots of open space that could have been used.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your honesty continues to impress everyone who needs reassurance about a project. But be careful you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lose patience with those who are still not ready to act.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Pushing others too hard to do things your way could cause resentment and raise more doubts. Instead, take more time to explain why your methods will work.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be more considerate of those close to you before making a decision that could have a serious effect on their lives. Explain your intentions and ask for their advice.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might have to defend a workplace decision you plan to make. Colleagues might back you up on this, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the facts that will ultimately win the day for you. Good luck.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Big Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s co-workers might not be doing enough to help get that project finished. Your roars might stir things up, but gentle purrr-suasion will prove to be more effective.

THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2012

New perspective on life in the navy The life at sea is the life for Ken Friess.

For seven days in early August, the Estevan resident had free-reign to explore one of the Royal Canadian Navyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s destroyers. Seeing all the sailors in their element was an experience he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t soon forget.

Friessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother-inlaw, Lorne Hartell, recently took command of the HMCS Algonquin as the shipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s captain, a post he will keep for two years.

His term began this past summer with RIMPAC exercises in the Pacific, which involved close to 20 countries.

Following the exercises, there was a planned, formal command change over, with family invited to attend. The previous commander got sick, so it was cancelled. Friess was interested in going to see it, so Hartell suggested he come out for a Tiger Cruise. Sailors take family or friends on board for a cruise if there are beds available.

In Friessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case, the journey was from Pearl Harbor in Hawaii to Esquimalt on Vancouver Island.

Hartell picked up the cost, as Friessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sponsor.

Algonquin is a 460foot destroyer, which Friess travelled on, but also making the trip was the frigate, HMCS Ottawa.

Friess enjoyed some of the nicer digs while staying on the ship. Because he was a guest of the shipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commander, the admiral suite was where he bunked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had the best accommodations,â&#x20AC;? he said, of the 14 tigers or civilians. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a lot of space, but way more than the other guys had.â&#x20AC;?

He shared the sitting room with Hartell, which he said was nice for an old ship.

Friess said when something was off limits, it was very clear he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take in that part of the ship.

For the most part, however, he could roam freely, observing the crew as they went about their daily training and exercises.

Much of his time was spent on the bridge, sitting in the captainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My brother-in-law

Ken Friess hangs out the door of a Sea King helicopter during his August trip aboard the HMCS Algonquin from Pearl Harbor to Victoria. Friessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother-in-law recently took command of the vessel, and Friess spent time on the ship as part of a Tiger Cruise. doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t spend a whole bunch of time on the bridge,â&#x20AC;? said Friess. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing some important exercise where he has to be there, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s there, but otherwise he can run the ship from just about anywhere. Whenever he would normally be in his quarters or his sitting room or his bedroom, there are radios and phones and they are constantly calling him and updating him on whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on.â&#x20AC;?

Friess did get to take part in some of the exercises and use some of the equipment as well. A pilot was being certified during the journey, and he was able to climb into the Sea King helicopter, not just going along for the ride but also flying it for close to 20 minutes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They let us do quite a few things. They let us jog the helicopter around from the door.â&#x20AC;?

Friess explained that during a water rescue, the pilot hovers the aircraft while the movement of the helicopter is controlled by the people at the door.

They are overlooking their target in the water, so they have the best idea as to where they should be positioned. Afterward, he took control of the Sea King. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They showed the basic controls, and I was able to fly it for 15 or 20

minutes. It seemed like about five minutes,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not really natural right away. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve run draglines, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harder than that. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not quite as natural as something like that. It takes a little more co-ordination.â&#x20AC;?

Friess also stepped behind one of the 50-calibre machine guns and was able to fire a few bursts from the high-powered weapon at a smoke flare fire in the ocean. Firing a few hundred rounds took only a few seconds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You only hold the trigger for a few seconds at a time, because we were shooting 2,000 rounds. If you held the trigger, the barrel gets so hot it overheats the barrel.â&#x20AC;?

Friess earned an even greater respect for the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s navy after seeing them in action. During exercises, he said everybody does everything at 100 per cent and takes their training very seriously. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an experience to see the way that they do things. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of people who maybe donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military seriously, but they do. They are well trained, and they are well-respected.â&#x20AC;?

He said during RIMPAC, there is lots of communication with the other countries involved.

The South Koreans have

newer, state-of-the-art vessels, but there is certainly a mutual respect among them all.

Reflecting on his time at sea, Friess added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if, when I was that age, I was in the mindset to get into it, but for somebody who is the adventurous type, there you go.â&#x20AC;?

He noted the sailors were itching to get home after being away for about two months. The crew did spend time in Hawaii, a notorious vacation hot spot for many on the mainland, but as Friess noted, for them, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not home.

Over the past two years I’ve spent more time in a courtroom than time with my family, by a long shot.

It’s not because I just can’t get on the right side of the law, and I don’t see judges as often as the lawyers in town, but as the court reporter, plenty of working time is spent sitting in a chilly courtroom straining to hear what exactly is going on.

This past Monday was much more of the same, with its rare but inevitable interesting moments hidden amongst several hours of dry proceedings. The most refreshing thing was to hear the sitting judge vent many of the frustrations I have watching the local court beat.

That is that things in the court system are happening, but not even at a snail’s pace. The justice system moves forward at an evolutionary pace.

For the majority of items on a court docket, nothing happens. Most matters are simply adjourned to a later date, at which time they are adjourned again, ad infinitum. I’m not here to blame any of the lawyers for clogging up the system.

But it was refreshing to hear Judge Kenn Bellerose inquire as to why it has

Jordan Baker Thoughts From My Fingers taken an impaired driving charge from May 2011 to October 2012 to go without any sort of resolution. There were no pleas entered, it was simply adjourned to a date in November.

He was assured by the Crown that the matter would be moving forward on that day with a plea. A guilty plea could end the matter, while a not-guilty plea would require a trial in four or five months. There may not be anybody who actually enforces a plea on that day, so it’s quite possible another adjournment is in order when the time comes.

I’m not familiar with the specific case, but in that year and a half, it’s possible that the matter has been called in court and adjourned a dozen or more times. The judge suggested with a flair of hyperbole that there were two trees worth of paper for the file.

Maybe there is no way that particular matter can be dealt with quicker than it is, but it will probably require more than one more appearance in the courtroom This isn’t strictly a problem in Estevan’s provincial court system. It’s happening across the country. I don’t think the lawyers in Estevan are unorganized or lazy. Part of the problem is more likely because there are far too few lawyers to deal with the elevating crime levels in the Energy City.

I’m not privy to all, or any, of the conversations between them as they work to some kind of agreement on how to move a case forward, but certainly at some point feet have to be held to the fire in order to get things moving along.

I wish a cranky court reporter had that kind of clout, but I’m going to have to defer those powers to our judges.

It’s nice to see Bellerose ask questions about the pace of the judicial process, but ultimately, his bewilderment at the speed of the court system isn’t going to move things along any faster.

There is one suggestion I can make to everyone in order to help unclog the courts: please just stop breaking the law.

How will we feed the growing world population One of the overriding issues of agriculture moving forward is simply feeding a growing world population.

At times we seem to lose sight of that fact in view of more immediate issues, whether it is the increasing cost of fuel, problems attracting workers, or the new world of grain marketing post Canadian Wheat Board.

But as we move forward, the world’s population is going to climb. There are not even hints of any real effort being made to start a public dialogue on how the world might address that growth in a reasonable way.

We therefore have to work on making sure farm production stays ahead of the increasing population.

At times, we think of farmers in North America as being at the forefront of that effort. Farmers here look at production techniques as the answer. Genetically modified (GM) crop varieties hold out hope for greater yields, as do better application of nutrients through variable rates tailored to specific needs within a field.

North American farmers are only part of the equation in terms of long-term production.

More important, at least in the shorter term, is that GM will be helping farmers in other countries increase their production capabilities.

Calvin Daniels Trader Agriculture Columnist We are seeing some of that as farmers in South America are now a major producer of soybeans.

There was a time when countries such as Ukraine were major producers of wheat. Eastern Europe was a major grain producer. A couple of world wars and being under control of Moscow for decades left the region years behind in terms of technology.

I can recall a group of farmers from Eastern Europe who were in Yorkton a decade or so ago, where it wasn’t the large-scale combine which most interested them because it was too far ahead of them.

Rather it was the grain auger that they felt was something that would be immediately helpful on the farm.

As far behind on a technological level as farmers in Eastern Europe may be, farmers in Africa are decades behind that. If Africa had the technological advancements farmers have here in Canada, imagine the farm production that could be achieved.

But, there is more to it than production.

In a recent Western Producer article,

a startlingly sad statistic was at the heart of a story.

In the article, Colin Osborne, president of Vicwest which also owns Westeel grain bins, noted, “The minister of agriculture of India claims they lose 22 per cent of everything they crop. So they grow 400 million tonnes of crop every year and they lose 88 million tonnes through rot, contamination and animals.

“To put that in perspective, Canada only grows about 72 million (tonnes per year).”

Food loss is not a problem isolated to India.

Food storage, vermin issues and transportation problems account for substantial losses of food.

That will become unacceptable in the future when every bushel of food will be critical. And on a world level, how we protect the food supply will be as important in the future as increasing actual farm production.

In many respects the answers exist in things such as better granaries and better management systems.

Like production, getting systems to go from farming with hoes to half-million dollar tractors is a technological step that will not easily be achieved, but to feed our future generations, it is a step that must be taken.

Ludwig cruises to convincing win It came down to a battle of experience versus change and Roy Ludwigâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 18 years on council carried him to a convincing victory in the 2012 Estevan civic election.

The veteran councillor captured the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job with an impressive 60 per cent of the vote in Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s election.

Ludwig will now replace Gary St. Onge who announced earlier this year that he would not run for another term as mayor after seven years on the job. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to thank our community very much for their support and I look forward to fulfilling the mandate with our new council,â&#x20AC;? Ludwig said after it became clear he would be declared the winner over

fellow candidates Lynn Chipley and Jim Halladay. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a great council, and I am just very excited with moving the city forward.â&#x20AC;?

Entering election day it was largely believed that the battle for mayor would be a two-horse race between Ludwig and Chipley, who had served two terms on council.

However, Ludwig quickly outdistanced himself from the pack, taking a sizable lead early on that he would never relinquish.

When the smoke cleared. Ludwig finished with 1,807 votes while Chipley had 912. Halladay received 299 votes.

Ludwig said entering the election he had a posi-

Roy Ludwig tive feeling from voters but was uncertain until the votes began rolling in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You never really know what to expect come election time, and I have learned that over the years. From my work on the ground, it was very positive and I thought unless people were telling me what I wanted to hear, it sounded pretty favourable.â&#x20AC;?

Although she was dis-

appointed in the result, Chipley said she was taking solace in the fact she garnered a third of the vote. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I appreciate all the support I received. Am I a little disappointed I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be here for the next four years? Of course, but seven good people have been elected and they will take good care of the city and keep the things that we started going.â&#x20AC;?

When Ludwig officially takes over as mayor he will have three new councillors to work with.

Greg Hoffort, Lori Carr and Kevin Smith will join incumbents Brian Johnson, Dennis Moore and Chris Istace around the council table.

Hoffort received the

most votes while Dennis Moore had the highest number of opponents among the incumbents. Hoffort said he was pleased with the support from the electorate and is looking forward to working with the new council team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a lot of encouragement and support from many people, but as far as where I would finish in the list I had no notion of that,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just about all of the councillors who were elected tonight I have worked with in the past on other boards and committees. I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got the makings of a great team, and I look forward to getting at it.â&#x20AC;?

Rodney Beatty was the lone incumbent not

re-elected as he placed seventh overall. Mohammad Waseem was eighth and Cameron Robock was ninth.

The plebiscite asking voters whether or not they would like to see the speed limit lowered to 40 km/ hr in the residential areas was very close with 1,468 people voting yes and 1,442 people voting no. However, the final decision will have to be made by the members of council as the results of the vote are not binding.

Overall, 3,018 people cast a vote in the election, well ahead of 2009 when roughly 1,850 people voted.

Halloween remembered ...

When visiting home over Thanksgiving weekend, I was treated to a story of me as a child. Obviously I was a strange and awesome kid, so most stories about my childhood result in equal parts laughter and head-hanging shame. This story is no different.

For my first â&#x20AC;&#x153;big kidâ&#x20AC;?

Halloween, when I was three years old, my mom dressed me up a pumpkin. She dressed me in an adorable orange costume (looks like an orange body suit), handed me a pumpkin basket and painted my face like a jack-oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;-lantern before leading me around the block and to my relativesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homes.

This probably inspires an adorable mental image of a blond, blueeyed joy of a child skipping from door to door, politely asking for Twix bars. Not the case. For one, I hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite figured out how smiling worked yet.

So rather than grinning innocently, I would tilt my head back and grin evilly, exposing only my bottom teeth. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been told the effect was frightening, but all attempts to recreate it now seem to fail.

Plus my black and orange face, which I admit was admirably attempted, was a bit of a disaster, especially when combined with my sneer.

And the best part: I learned over Thanksgiving that rather than knocking on doors like a regular child, or shouting naughty rhymes in order to earn my goodies, I knocked on doors so hard my knuckles were literally bleeding when I got home.

I recently heard on an

Tonaya Marr Maybe Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Just Me Estevan radio station that nothing is more frightening than a scary child. Let it be known that I was that child, standing on doorsteps with my knuckles bleeding creepily on the ground, my candy pumpkin full of treats and my mom standing behind me looking apologetic for presenting such a satanic toddler.

Many years later, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still a fan of Halloween.

Though my knuckles are a little less bloody, I still love eating chocolately treats (not a diet-friendly practice) and I enjoy getting dressed up. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m concerned that this might be my final year donning a costume, since next Halloween I hope to be a fully-employed contributing member of society

and something seems a lot less fun about getting sloppy and going out when I might run into my employers or co-workers.

Obviously I have a job right now, but they seem to expect this sort of childish behaviour since Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a student.

One final note on Halloween: my parents are moving Halloween weekend to their new home. As much as I regret being unable to come help (slight exaggeration), I wish them the best of luck. This is also the first year my dad wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be buying 16 bags of candy to hand to earnest youngsters, thus ending an era of Mom complaining about the leftover candy and Dad keeping careful count of

the number of kids who come by in hopes of beating last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry, Dad, I will come home and take the mini Areo bars from you.

THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2012

Groups will be offering a Warm Welcome Several of Estevanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church groups are coming together to bring some of the Energy Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s less fortunate people in from the cold.

Starting on Dec. 1 and running until the end of February, St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s United Church auditorium will host the Warm Welcome project. The goal is to have a safe and warm place for people who would otherwise be sleeping in their cars or on the street.

Brenna Nickel, the minister at St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, said the shelter will run from Thursday to Sunday in the beginning because they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t entirely sure what their resources will allow them to do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know that most people who arrive in Estevan are coming on the weekends, hoping to start work on Monday, so thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why we picked that time,â&#x20AC;? said Nickel.

She has been in Estevan for more than a year and noted that when people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a place to stay, one of the first places they go is the church. Churches in the past would have a system where one church was on call every weekend

to put people up in hotels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now there just isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t space in the hotels for people, and even if there is, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so expensive for the churches and the people,â&#x20AC;?

Nickel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think all the ministers in town have faced a very difficult time where you have to tell somebody, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;no, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have anything we can do for you.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; We just felt a need to address that.â&#x20AC;?

She noted initiatives by the City to introduce affordable housing will certainly help, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still going to take time to get those units up and running.

She said they are teamed up with the Salvation Army, who she noted are tracking 10 to 12 people who are sleeping in their vehicles right now. Nickel estimated there are about another 10 people whom she called the â&#x20AC;&#x153;invisible homeless.â&#x20AC;? With winter on its way, she added that people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want others to have to sleep outside.

Nickel said that while they offer the beds, not everyone would feel comfortable accepting the help.

She is guessing that five to 10 will come in.

Nickel noted they are

getting mattresses and bedding lined up right now and are meeting with the health inspector next week. They arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure if they will be required to have brand new material or if they can accept things like used sheets.

The Salvation Army will be providing breakfast each morning thanks to donations made to the food bank. They will also be used as the intake point for people who wish to spend the night inside.

Nickel said St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

was looking to get more involved in the community, and their leadership team brought the Warm Welcome idea forward.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know we have the space, and other churches are saying they have people who would volunteer, and then the Salvation Army knows itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capable of giving us breakfast, so everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of doing their little piece of it,â&#x20AC;? said Nickel.

Volunteers will be required at the shelter to stay overnight, and their job will be to put out food and drinks for the guests and help clean up the following morning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mostly, for us to have people who can be good listeners and just kind of be there for conversation, and just be a warm, hospitable presence,â&#x20AC;? Nickel said is what they are looking for from their volunteers.

An informational session will be held on Nov. 4 at St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s United

Church beginning at 2 p.m.

Anybody with questions or ideas is welcome to bring those with them.

Simply put, Nickel said their goal is to have fewer people sleeping outside, noting that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for those people as well as the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It limits the use of resources. If somebody sleeps outside and they get sick from that, then they are in the ER taking up time and resources that way,â&#x20AC;? she noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The police arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t having to check on those people to make sure they are OK.â&#x20AC;?

She said many people are coming to Estevan from other provinces to find jobs, which is much easier than finding accommodation.

They will be able to take advantage of the Warm Welcome.

How much is appropriate to spend on a Halloween costume?

He She He She Said Halloween has lost its lustre for me in the past few years. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great as a kid, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an excuse to party when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a student, but when you have to get up and go to work the next day, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just another night.

When it comes to costumes, is anybody ever too old to dress up? Costumes come in varying sizes, shapes and levels of imagination.

The size and shape change as we get older, but the imagination can remain at the same level

of wonder.

We wear costumes for different reasons as adults than we did as trick-or-treaters.

For kids, dressing up is all about becoming a new person or at times a monster. As an adult, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about looking wacky and heading to a club.

The costume I remember is a Ninja Turtle one that my mom made. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just remember the costume, but I also remember watching her slave away, sewing that whole thing together. That image is probably ingrained in my brain because she would never let me forget all the work that went into that thing as I nagged her to finish it quick so I could do some karate kicks.

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how much that cost in materials, but it took hours and hours. A quick text from Mom reveals about 20. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I did nothing in the week before Halloween except basic child care like meals and diapers,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And sewed and sewed and sewed.â&#x20AC;?

I think I stirred up some bad memories.

There appears to be no limit to cost when getting the costume for a six-year-old.

When we start buying our own costumes, however, we immediately become more frugal.

Pulling off a Mario and Luigi duo with a buddy is a trip to the Sally Ann for some overalls and a red or green hat. A $20 limit now seems much too high.

What can be found in the closet and turned into something else? This is how, as we get older, our imagination is less about pretending to be a different person and more about imaginative ways to save money. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jordan Baker

Spending money is always a touchy subject.

Some people have a lot of cash to drop on a costume, while others donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. So reading this, consider that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m basing this on having money to spend on being Cat Woman for a night. And remember that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no shame in creating, borrowing or bargain-shopping a costume. After all, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one night of your life â&#x20AC;&#x201C; probably not worth a couple hundred dollars for a couple of scraps of material held together with fishnets.

Anyway, for toddlers, I advocate spending as much as is necessary to create adorable babies. There is no price limit here. If your Cabbage Patch Doll costume needs a $500 investment, I support that. Babies need sweet costumes. This same rules applies to pets as well. Total cost: as much as it takes.

As a toddler or elementary school student, spend as little as possible. And buy it big, because this is Saskatchewan and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to wear ski pants under your Sailor Moon skirt when you hunt for candy. I loved shopping for a Halloween costume at Walmart, which Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure was the bane of my momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. With three daughters demanding six costumes each, unable to make up their minds, I imagine Halloween costume shopping kind of sucked. So spend as little as possible and get out of the store. Total cost: $15.

High school kids: youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re too old to trick or treat and too young to be risquĂŠ.

Stay home and hand out candy with your parents. Total cost: $0, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saving your dignity.

Post-high school into adult years: this really comes down to what you can afford, what you can get away with spending before your dad notices and how high your credit card can go. Shopping locally can save you some cash, and so can borrowing a previously warm outfit from a friend, assuming it been washed. Based on my own experience, I know that costumes run you at least $50 before shipping and accessories. And realistically, there are better things you can be spending your money on Halloween night when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out. Total cost: $100, optimistically. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tonaya Marr

THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2012

People have been shot for less The phrase â&#x20AC;&#x153;People have been shot for lessâ&#x20AC;? may sound glib, but in the case of navy Sub-Lt. Jeffrey Delisle, that is most certainly the case.

The man may just be the worst traitor Canada has ever seen. In wartime, the scope of his betrayal to his country would have drawn a firing squad in most countries.

Perhaps it is precisely because we do not have firing squads or hangmen for such offences in Canada anymore that he broke after just an hour of questioning.

And though I generally donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe in the death penalty, my gut tells me in this case, perhaps an exception can be made.

What strikes me here is some parallels to my own service. Delisle was a navy sub-lieutenant, the equivalent rank of an air force lieutenant, my rank when I mustered out. Delisle told police, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deploy because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m diabetic. I never sailed.â&#x20AC;? Ditto. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the reason I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t become a career air force officer right out of high school.

In my case, it meant the only way I ended up in uniform was as an air cadet instructor in a component of the reserves known as the Cadet Instructor Cadre, a position with very little actual training and zero security clearance that I am aware of. Delisle, on the other hand, had one of the highest security clearances possible. He worked in intelligence, at a military establishment so secret I never even heard of it until the news broke of his betrayal.

An officer for 16 years, at his lowly rank of sublieutenant, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clear he was going nowhere in his career. His wage at that rank wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to make him rich by any means. Apparently his wife cheating on him was enough for him to sell out his country, to which he had sworn an oath, for a measly $3,000 a month or so.

For that $3,000, he gave away the keys to the castle.

The man, a naval officer, mind you, actually walked into the Russian

a shooting war.

Oh, wait, it did. Canada has been in a shooting war in Afghanistan since the fall of 2001, and we most definitely had troops in the field in 2007. Indeed,

our deployment was still ramping up at that time.

And he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just feeding Canadian secrets, but that of our allies as well.

The Globe and Mail reported, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The information was mostly military but also contained reports on organized crime, on political players, on senior defence officials. It included e-mails, phone numbers and contact list for members of the intelligence community.â&#x20AC;?

The long and short of

it is Delisle deserves to be dragged into the street and shot. Since weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re Canadians, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably eligible for parole in a few years. If there is any justice in this land, he should never see the light of day as long as he lives. Delisle should be thankful the rifles arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t being loaded - five with live rounds, and one blank.

â&#x20AC;˘ In this season of bitter partisan rivalries, it would be well to remember the following sage observation: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do not trust to the cheering, for those persons would cheer just as much if you and I were going to be hanged.â&#x20AC;? The man who first made that observation was Lord Protector of England Oliver Cromwell, considered by some to be a hero of liberty, by others to be a regicidal dictator.

He died in 1658, probably from septicemia. He was so reviled that, three years later, he body was exhumed so that he could be posthumously executed, his body

thrown into a pit and his head displayed on a pole outside Westminster Hall. â&#x20AC;˘ Those who study such things say that if all the gold in the world were combined in one lump, it would result in a cube that measures 20 yards on each side. â&#x20AC;˘ If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re planning a trip to Lima, Peru, you might want to add Puente de Piedra to your sightseeing list. Though the Spanish name means â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bridge of Stone,â&#x20AC;? the span is popularly known as the Bridge of Eggs. Legend has it that in 1608, the builders the used the whites of 10,000 seabird eggs in the mortar that holds the stones together. â&#x20AC;˘ Pumpkins are native to the Americas, not Europe. This is why the

original jack-oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;-lantern was a turnip. â&#x20AC;˘ What do the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;obscene,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;tranquil,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;mediate,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;catastrophe,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;dire,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;critical,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;vastâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;apostropheâ&#x20AC;? have in common? All of them appeared in print for the first time in the works of William Shakespeare. â&#x20AC;˘ If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re contemplating a move to Corpus Christi, Texas, be sure to keep in mind that in that town, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s illegal to raise alligators in your home. *** Thought for the Day: â&#x20AC;&#x153;One fool can ask more questions in a minute than 12 wise men can answer in an hour.â&#x20AC;? -- Vladimir Lenin

Brian Zinchuk From the Top of the Pile Embassy and offered his services. They must have thought manna from heaven had just landed on their desk.

He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use dead drops or microfilm like spy novels. He cut and pasted files, then carried them out on floppy disks, transferred them to USB sticks, and sent them as e-mails.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing for a civilian to become a spy; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite another for an intelligence officer to do so.

There is no higher level of betrayal.

MP takes sick leave for alcoholism Provincial SASKATOON - A deal has been reached to boost employment for aboriginal people in the Saskatoon Health Region by six per cent over the next two years.

The goal is contained in a memorandum of understanding announced Wednesday by the health region and the Saskatoon Tribal Council.

About four per cent of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 13,000-member workforce comes from a First Nations, Metis or Inuit background.

Bonnie Blakley, a health region spokeswoman, says employment of aboriginal people is as much about the health of the community as health care itself.

Council Chief Felix Thomas says another goal is to create work for more council companies by possibly outsourcing some services currently handled by the health region.

The council and region are also committing $10,000 each for 20 scholarships to First Nations and Metis people pursuing a career in health care.

National OTTAWA - New Democrat MP Romeo Saganash is taking sick leave to deal with alcohol dependence after being deemed too drunk to fly on an Air Canada Jazz flight last week.

Saganash says he needs medical help to overcome his drinking problem and has therefore asked his leader, Tom Mulcair, to grant him sick leave.

Saganash was removed Friday from an Air

Canada Jazz flight from Montreal to Val-dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Or, Que., after the flight crew determined he was too intoxicated to fly.

Saganash, a longtime leader in the Cree community of northern Quebec, says thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no excuse for the incident but suggests in a statement that his alcohol problem stems back to his time in residential school.

He also says he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;greatly affectedâ&#x20AC;? by the death of NDP leader Jack Layton and was worn out by his subsequent, shortlived campaign to succeed Layton. *** OTTAWA - A debate about whether to repeal the centuries-old Indian Act is back before the House of Commons.

Last week, the Conservatives moved forward with a private membersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bill that would delete several sections of the act as a start towards fully dismantling it.

Now, the Liberals have introduced their own motion calling for talks with First Nations to replace the old legislation with something better suited to current realities.

The Indian Act came into effect in 1876 and sets out the terms of the relationship between the federal Crown and First Nations.

The motion introduced by interim Liberal leader Bob Rae calls the existing legislation an embodiment of failed colonial and paternalistic policies.

Rae says it creates a barrier to economic and social development for First Nations and needs to

be dismantled.

He says the Conservative bill was drafted without consultation with First Nations communities, while his own motion is the product of extensive talks.

Conservative MP Rob Clarke, who sponsored the bill, says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s based on his discussions with aboriginal leaders.

carried out the launch of the balloons. South Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Defence Ministry said it was closely monitoring North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military movements but there were no suspicious activities.

Before taking action Monday, the South Korean government had implored activists to stop their campaign, but had cited freedom of speech in not making further attempts to intervene. *** HAGERSTOWN, Md. - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s investigating reports of five deaths and a non-fatal heart attack linked to highly caffeinated Monster Energy Drinks.

The agency acknowledged the adverse reports Monday, but FDA spokeswoman Shelly Burgess says they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t prove that the drinks caused the

International SEOUL, South Korea - South Korean activists floated balloons carrying tens of thousands of antiPyongyang leaflets into North Korea on Monday, eluding police who had disrupted an earlier launch attempt due to threats from North Korea.

North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military warned last week that it would strike if the South Korean activists carried through with their plan to fly balloons carrying the propaganda leaflets across the border. South Korea pledged to retaliate if it was attacked.

South Korean police, citing security concerns, had sent hundreds of officers Monday to seal off roads and prevent the activists and other people from gathering at an announced launch site near the border.

Residents in the area were also asked to evacuate to underground facilities, according to local official Kim Jin-a.

Later in the day, some of the activists, mostly North Korean defectors, moved to another site near the border that was not guarded by police and

deaths.

The news follows last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s filing in California of a wrongful death suit by the parents of a 14-yearold, Hagerstown, Md., girl who died after drinking two, 24-ounce Monster Beverage Corp. drinks in 24 hours.

An autopsy concluded she died of cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity. She had an inherited disorder that can weaken blood vessels.

Monster says it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe its products caused any deaths.

Shares of the Corona, Calif.-based company plunged $7.20, or 13.5 per cent, to $46.12 in trading Monday. *** Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;AQUILA, Italy - An Italian court convicted seven scientists and experts of manslaughter on Monday for failing to adequately

warn citizens before an earthquake struck central Italy in 2009, killing more than 300 people.

The court in Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Aquila also sentenced the defendants to six years in prison.

Each one is a member of the national Great Risks Commission.

In Italy, convictions arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t definitive until after at least one level of appeals, so it is unlikely any of the defendants would face jail immediately.

Scientists worldwide had decried the trial as ridiculous, contending that science has no reliable way of predicting earthquakes.

Among those convicted were some of Italyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most prominent and internationally respected seismologists and geological experts, including Enzo Boschi, former head of the national Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology.

Manning’s plan looking “super” so far Step 1: Peyton Manning becomes a free agent.

Step 2: He signs with an AFC team, Denver Broncos Step 3: His Broncos win the AFC championship Step 4: His brother Eli’s New York Giants win the NFC championship Step 5: The Manning brothers meet in the Super Bowl at New Orleans Feb. 3, 2013.

Don’t you just love it

when a plan works out?

When Peyton was freed from his Indianapolis Colts obligations last March after a spectacular 13-year career in the Midwest, every NFL general manager without a Hall of Fame quarterback under contract drooled like a starving man at a Keg Restaurant just thinking about signing the cerebral QB with the rifle arm who will go down in history as one of the best ever at

Bruce Penton Sports Columnist his position. But general managers running NFC teams didn’t have a chance because Peyton was similarly drooling about the possibility of a Manning vs. Manning Super Bowl.

And that meant AFC teams only.

And as the plan unfolds, it could happen this year. Eli’s Giants, who won the Super Bowl last February, are back among the NFL’s elite. And Peyton’s Broncos, after a middling start, are playing like the powerhouse most people expected them to be. Peyton’s 35-point second half explosion against San Diego on a Monday Night Football game Oct. 15 turned a 24-0 halftime deficit into a comfortable victory and solidified his stature as one of the game’s best.

Jim Trotter on si.com said Peyton’s performance that night was “a personal highlight reel, outrageous even by his standards.”

“You never can count that guy out,” said Brandon Stokley of the Washington Post. “I’ve seen it too many times. Everybody in this locker room knows, and we all believe that when you have him behind the centre, we

can come back from any deficit.”

Peyton Manning hasn’t failed at much during his career. Why would his Manning-versus-Manning Super Bowl dream be any different?

• Comedy writer Jim Barach: “NBA rookie Royce White of the Houston Rockets is battling severe anxiety. His biggest fear is that he will spend his whole career with the Houston Rockets.”

• Greg Cote of The Miami Herald, on the proposed Bikini Basketball Association: “If teams in that league have a merchandise sale and the signs read, “All our clothing 75 per cent off” - they mean it.”

• Comedy writer Alan Ray, on the NHL lockout: “Hockey fans are facing a grim reality. They may have to spend the entire season sober.”

• Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Patriots tight end Michael Hoomanawanui returned to practice after sitting out a day because of concussion symptoms. Talk about cruel and unusual: Doctors wouldn’t clear him until he could spell his last name.”

• Vancouver blogger

Steve Burgess: “Lance Armstrong said to be in negotiations to swap seven Tour de France titles for one Nobel Prize in Chemistry.”

• Steve Harvey, in his weekly Bottom Ten: “Coach Andy Reid of Philadelphia, saddled with the most turnover-prone quarterback in the NFL (Michael Vick), took the logical step and fired his defensive co-ordinator.”

• Barach again: “Alex Rodriguez was benched for Game 1 of the series between the Yankees and Tigers and was seen flirting with women in the crowd from the bench.

Coaches weren’t worried.

They know A-Rod always has trouble scoring in the playoffs.”

• R.J. Currie of sportsdeke.com: Five signs Winnipeg pivot Buck Pierce isn’t over his concussion: 5. Loves the play-by-play of Rod Black; 4. Is studying Tim Tebow’s throwing motion; 3. Thinks an option play is asking out Buzz instead of Boomer; 2. Practises in a watermelon helmet; 1. Says the NHL lockout is a shame because it’s the Leafs’ year.

• Another one from Perry: “Location, location, location can be a bad thing, too, as evidenced by the sponsor logo on the seat of UK diver Tom Daley’s swim briefs: British Gas.” • Auburn alum Charles Barkley, to Birmingham’s WJOX Radio, on the 1-5

Tigers’ football game against Vanderbilt: “Trust me, we’re playing the smart kids this week. If you can’t beat the smart kids, you’re in for a long year.”

• Twin Cities sportswriter Larry Fitzgerald Sr., to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, on son Larry Jr.’s $128.5 million contract with the Arizona Cardinals: “He’s doing pretty well - I keep trying to get him to bump my allowance.”

• Comedian Argus Hamilton, on reports that Judge Judy makes $45 million a year: “Only Alex Rodriguez is paid more to sit on the bench.”

• Another one from Cote, on the Jets’ choice of Mark Sanchez or Tim Tebow at quarterback: “(It’s) like you wanting a safer neighbourhood and having to decide between Beirut or Fallujah.”

• Ian Hamilton of the Regina Leader-Post, after noting that convicted dogfighter Michael Vick was once again a dog-owner: “The way Vick has been fumbling the ball this season, the animal had better be a retriever.”

• Brad Dickson of the Omaha (Neb.) WorldHerald, after a dog stole Paul Casey’s ball as he was lining up a putt: “If you think this a problem in golf, you should see the world Frisbee championships.”

Riders sneak into the playoffs A smile flashed across Brendan Tamanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face at the mention of the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;playoffs.â&#x20AC;? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another word the Saskatchewan Roughriders general manager actually despises, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get to that later.

The Roughriders entered this past weekend teetering on the edge of a playoff berth, needing either a home win over Montreal Saturday afternoon, or a Hamilton Tiger-Cats loss at Calgary Saturday night.

Well, one of those two things happened. The Riders dropped a 34-28 decision to the Alouettes at Mosaic Stadium as a fourth quarter rally fell short. However, the Ticats muffed their game to the Stampeders later that evening and the Riders were able to clinch without even breaking a sweat.

Backing into the playoffs? Absolutely. Apologizing for it? Not on your life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hate doing this because I never want to look back to last year, but going from where we were a year ago to where we are now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big credit for us,â&#x20AC;? Taman said about heading back to the CFL post-season after a one-

Rod Pedersen Rider Insider year absence in 2011, the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 5-13 season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve improved this team. I think thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no doubt about that, but we need to play better.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re happy to be where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at, but we need to be better.â&#x20AC;?

No guff. The Riders have lost back-to-back games to Edmonton and Montreal in the stretch drive and their record stands at 8-8 with two games left. The chance at a home playoff game has been blown and now the only question which remains is: are they going on the road in the West Division in the playoffs or crossing over into the East Division?

Really, if you ask these Riders, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the playoffs with a rookie head coach and a roster which was completely overhauled in the off-season by Taman, his

first season truly in charge of the Green & White. They rebuilt, with using the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;rebuild.â&#x20AC;? Why? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hate that word,â&#x20AC;? Taman said as he grimaced. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another word to use. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d use it if there were, but I hate that word because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sort of a built-in excuse to lose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were never gonna do that, but we knew we were gonna change the team a lot. I think other teams in the past have done it, even Edmonton did very well using â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;that wordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; last year.â&#x20AC;?

The Riders have two games left; at home this week to Toronto and then the last game of the regular season against the B.C. Lions in Vancouver. Who knows how things will play out? Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking at 108, 9-9 or 8-10, but they all constitute a huge leap from

last year under first year coach Corey Chamblin.

The key is that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve clinched a playoff spot with still two games remaining, and they can now start making plans for the playoffs.

As for the makeover - the â&#x20AC;&#x153;rebuildâ&#x20AC;? - things went according to plan despite a lot of silent hand-wringing behind closed doors, espe-

cially during a five-game losing streak mid-season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think in this league with eight teams, you can do it pretty quick,â&#x20AC;? Taman explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not easy, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a credit to the coaches and the players to have won enough games.â&#x20AC;?

The current two-game slide is nothing to be overlooked, but by no means is

it an omen for the future. In 2010 the Riders lost four in row in October before winning game 18 and rolling into the Grey Cup in Edmonton.

Hold on tight. This is where it gets fun.

(Rod Pedersen is the voice of the Riders on CKRM Radio)

Canadian jockey retires after 7,300 mounts National TORONTO - After a disastrous season, Toronto FC is trying to win back fans by slashing season ticket prices.

The Major League Soccer team is rolling back prices for all past and current ticket holders to 2007 inaugural season levels.

At the top price level, a season ticket will cost $1,007 next year compared to $1,292 in 2012.

The lowest price ticket will be reduced from $361 this season to $190.

New season ticket purchasers will pay â&#x20AC;&#x153;a few dollars more.â&#x20AC;?

Season tickets for the more successful Vancouver Whitecaps, who are poised to make the playoffs for the first time in team history, range from $349 to $1,950.

Maple Leafs Sports and Entertainment president Tom Anselmi says

the financial hit to the organization will be â&#x20AC;&#x153;pretty healthy,â&#x20AC;? but declined to go into detail.

Toronto is currently last in the league with a 5-20-7 record. That is worse than its 2007 expansion season record of 6-17-7. *** TORONTO, - Jockey Chantal Sutherland has called it a career.

The 36-year-old Winnipeg native announced her retirement Sunday after guiding Crushin Hard to a seventh-place finish in the $126,200 Bunty Lawless Stakes at Woodbine Racetrack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love Woodbine, I love riding here,â&#x20AC;? said Sutherland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice that I could end it here, where it all started for me.â&#x20AC;?

Sutherland left Woodbine for Santa Anita in 2011 but wanted to return to

Canada for her final mount aboard a horse owned, in part, by her father Hugh Sutherland.

Sutherland admitted it was difficult walking off the track as a jockey for the last time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very emotional experience,â&#x20AC;? said Sutherland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sad, but I feel good about the decision and the timing is right for me. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope to be remembered as a very good jockey.â&#x20AC;?

Sutherland retires with a record of 931 wins, including 71 stakes scores from 7,350 mounts. *** CALGARY - Fast ice at Calgaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Olympic Oval produced a trio of world records in World Cup short track speedskating Sunday, while Canadian skaters claimed three silver and a bronze on the final day of

competition.

J.R. Celski of the United States became the first man to go under 40 seconds in the 500 metres in 39.973. The American posted that time in the final and took gold ahead of Charles Hamelin of SainteJulie, Que., in second. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really expecting to go that fast today because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a long weekend of racing,â&#x20AC;?

Celski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ice kind of tends to break down over time, but it held its ground and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really excited to come out with that world record today.â&#x20AC;?

South Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Shim Suk Hee and Kwak YoonGy set world records in the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1,000 metres respectively in the semifinal rounds. Shim went on to win her final, while Kwak took bronze in the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final.

The Canadian team capped the opening World Cup of this season with four silver and a pair of bronze after three days of racing. Olivier Jean of Lachenaie, Que., won silver in the 1,000 metres and Hamelin was a bronze medallist in the 1,500 on Saturday.

International GENEVA - Forget the seven Tour de France victories. Forget the yellow jersey celebrations on the Champs Elysees. Forget the name that dominated the sport of cycling for so many years.

As far as cyclingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s governing body is concerned, Lance Armstrong is out of the record books.

Once considered the greatest rider in Tour history, the American was cast out Monday by his sport, formally stripped of his seven titles and banned for life for his involvement in what U.S. sports authorities describe as a massive doping program that tainted all of his greatest triumphs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lance Armstrong has no place in cycling and he deserves to be forgotten in cycling,â&#x20AC;? said Pat McQuaid, the president said of the International Cycling Union. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a landmark day for cycling.â&#x20AC;?

Sport. McQuaid said he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;sickenedâ&#x20AC;? by some of the evidence detailed by USADA in its 200-page report and hundreds of pages of supporting testimony and documents. *** MANCHESTER, England - Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson has settled his public dispute with Rio Ferdinand following the defenderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s refusal to promote an antiracism campaign, blaming a â&#x20AC;&#x153;communication problemâ&#x20AC;? for the rift.

Ferguson accused the experienced centre back of â&#x20AC;&#x153;embarrassingâ&#x20AC;? him by declining to wear a T-shirt in support of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kick It Outâ&#x20AC;? anti-discrimination campaign, having told the media his whole squad would don the tops before the Premier League match against Stoke on Saturday.

However, Ferguson backed down Monday, saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve spoken to Rio. I think there was a communication problem. He felt I should have spoken to him on Friday and I obviously didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t anticipate that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have a problem wearing the shirt. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As the manager of a club, you lay down policy and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to see it ignored,â&#x20AC;? Ferguson added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where my anger came from on Saturday.

But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve resolved the situation, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no lingering problems and we move on.â&#x20AC;?

Ferdinand was one of many Premier League players to boycott the Kick It Out action this weekend, as a protest against a perceived lack of strong action taken by organizations in recent high-profile racism cases.

Going gluten-free

According to the National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse, about 2 million people -- or 1 in 133 people -- in the United States have celiac disease. It is considered to be a genetic disorder, and can be diagnosed in infancy through adulthood. Both males and females can have the disease, but more women than men are diagnosed with it.

Celiac Sprue is a disease in which a person does not tolerate gluten, the protein in wheat, barley, rye and, to a lesser extent, oats. Celiac Sprue is not a food allergy, but a disease that damages the small intestine and prevents absorption of nutrients. My daughter struggles with celiac disease, which makes family dinners an interesting blend of gluten-free products transformed into family favorites.

The Celiac Sprue Association lists three things that happen before the onset of the disease: a genetic predisposition, a diet containing wheat, barley, rye or oats, and a trigger. The trigger could be something like overexposure to wheat, extreme stress, surgery or a viral infection.

It is a complicated disease because a person can have it and not have symptoms. There have been instances where children have been diagnosed with Celiac Sprue, but then have symptoms disappear. They later found that although there were no symptoms, damage to the small intestine was still occurring.

The damage in the small intestine is to the villi, which are thin, hairlike projections on the lining of the small intestine. They allow nutrients into the bloodstream. If the villi are damaged, malnutrition, anemia, weight loss and growth retardation can occur.

Celiac disease is often underdiagnosed because it can be confused with other diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome, diverticulitis or Crohnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease. Symptoms of celiac disease vary from person to person. To diagnose celiac disease, a physician will first do a blood test. If certain antibodies are present, they will do a small bowel

biopsy to check for damage to the villi.

The only way to treat the disease is the elimination of gluten in the diet. Usually people notice a difference within a short period of time.

Maintaining a gluten-free diet allows the small intestine to heal.

This recipe for Swiss Chard Sushi is not only gluten-free, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all vegetarian and totally delicious!

remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper and crushed red pepper over the carrots and green onions. Place a few pieces of the carrot and green onion and 2 heaping tablespoons of the rice at the end of the leaf.

Fold the bottom edges of the leaf over the filling.

Roll into a cigar shape, until it forms a tight bundle. Repeat with rest of filling and leaves.

Keep chilled until ready to serve. Serves 4.

â&#x20AC;˘ Fall Car Care â&#x20AC;˘

Preventive maintenance to keep your car on the road Many motorists bemoan the myriad costs associated with owning a vehicle. According to the National Automobile Dealers Association, the average price for a new car in the United States is slightly more than $28,000.

But as any vehicle owner knows, that sticker price is only the beginning. The cost of maintaining a vehicle and keeping it on the road is not exactly insignificant.

As the economy begins to rebound, a good percentage of motorists have resolved to keep their vehicles on the road longer in an effort to stretch their automobile dollars.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sound resolution, and one that is not necessarily difficult to accomplish. Contrary to popular belief, cars are built to last, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s often a driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poor habits that reduce a carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

life expectancy as opposed to the vehicle manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s product. Drivers can lengthen a vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifespan by employing preventive maintenance that should keep a car running strong for years to come.

Air Filter When examining the vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s air filter (check the vehicle manual for location), look for dirt or dust buildup. If the filter is filthy, simply replace it. Auto parts stores sell air filters, and most drivers shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have trouble replacing a filter by themselves. A dirty air filter can negatively effect fuel economy and make it seem as though a vehicle is constantly going uphill in a stiff wind. When a dirty air filter is replaced, drivers will notice an instant impact in

how the car drives and are likely to save a few dollars at the filling station as well.

Belts and Hoses Issues with belts or hoses are often recognizable to the naked eye, regardless of a driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s automotive skill. A hose in poor condition can appear bulging or brittle, and should not feel too soft or too hard. If a hose exhibits any of these symptoms, replace it.

A belt thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worn or frayed should also be replaced.

Motor Oil Oil change guidelines have changed dramatically thanks to better cars and more reliable motor oils. But it still helps to check motor oil levels after every fill up. If motor oil levels are low, add more oil. If oil is significantly low after each fill up, consult a mechanic just to be safe.

Exhaust Once a year, be it at a routine tune up or should repair work be necessary, ask your mechanic to check the vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emissions. Failing an emissions test might be against the law, and a failed test could be indicative of a larger problem.

In addition, inspect the muffler and exhaust pipe for holes, particularly after winter, when debris from snow trucks may do significant damage. Replace any damaged or rusted parts.

Power Steering Power steering fluid should also be inspected

on a monthly basis. When checking power steering fluid, also inspect the pump for any leaks.

Tires Keeping tires properly inflated pays numerous dividends. Properly inflated tires make it easier for the engine to operate, lowering fuel costs while also decreasing wear and tear on the engine. The ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manual should list a recommended tire pressure, and the local filling station likely has an air pump.

Maintaining tires also involves checking for wear and tear. Uneven wear could indicate the tires are mis-

aligned. Discuss this with your mechanic.

Transmission Fluid When checking transmission fluid, do so while the car is running and after the engine has warmed up.

Always be certain to put the parking brake on when checking transmission fluid.

If the vehicle needs transmission fluid, add the recommended fluid but be careful not to overfill.

Prolonging a vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifespan is not as difficult as it sounds. Oftentimes, all it takes is minor, yet routine, maintenance to keep a car on the road for years and years.

'RQ¡W &XVV

7 green interior car care tips Many times detailing the interior of a vehicle requires a lot of strong chemicals. But it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to.

1. Keep up with mess.

If you clean as items become soiled, you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to rely on harsh chemicals to remove set-in stains.

2. Replace carpeted mats for rubberized ones.

Choose recycled rubber mats, which will require a hose-down instead of shampooing with strong carpet cleaners.

3. Invest in a quality shop vacuum or high-powered vacuum. Routinely vacuum the interior of the vehicle to prevent groundin dirt.

4. Buy seat covers. Instead of using harsh chemicals to clean upholstery, removable seat covers may be able to be washed in a washing machine and cleaned with eco-friendly detergents.

5. Stock up on dusting cloths. Static-charged dusting cloths can be used to collect dust and debris from the dashboard and instrument panel. This reduces

the need for spray dusting products.

6. Replace interior air filters. Most new vehicles have an air filtration system for the interior of the

vehicle. Clogged filters can proliferate contaminants inside the cabin of the car. Frequently change the filters to ensure cleaner interior air quality.

The â&#x20AC;˘ Act now to prevent burst downspouts from ice.

Clean out leaves and debris from the gutter and add a topper of wire mesh. It will allow water to flow freely, preventing ice dams from forming. â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;&#x153;An old pill bottle can make a handy dispenser for rolls of stamps.
