By Claudia Villemaire Richmond It was almost bedlam.July 11 was their last evening in the region after a 10-day stint that took 10 4Hers from the Lac La Biche region in Alberta on a whirlwind tour of farms and activities since their arrival a little over a week before that.“We go home tomorrow but it has been really great,” said Shalayne Wowk.All 10 were unanimous in their surprise at the size of farms in thisregion, which are much smaller than those back home.“We have hundreds of acres and there aren’t many dairy cows either,” said Alberta’s Bradley Benuik.These young visitors between the ages of 14 and 17 visited local herds, both dairy and beef, tasted maple sugar on snow, and enjoyed social events including this last barbecue with their new friends.Now it’s the hosts who have travelled back to the Lac La Biche area to spend 10 days with the western 4Hers.“We’ll probably be surprised at the wide open spaces and lack of dairy cattle,” the group all agreed.“Towns are not close together like here and they think nothing of travelling an hour for a visit with a neighbour,” said another local member.The call to supper rang out and 20 young people with host families, friends and chaperons settled in to a final feast before their departure last Thursday.In the photo in no special order are: Bradley Be- niuk, Chantelle Benson, Miranda Tesolin, Chauntel Raasch, Shalayne Wowk, Owen Burdek, Morgan Williams, Colton McDonald, Corey and Kyle Leach.Young hosts: Alexander Keenan-Adank, Brett Mastine, Jacob Morin, Justin St.Cyr-Badger, David Nelson, Michael Dutka, Emily Mastine, Summer Mason, Kayla St.Cyr and Lee Ann Nelson.Chaperones from Alberta were Debbie Tesolin and Jocelyn Williams.Chaperones from the Richmond club are Pauline Antink and Judy Nelson.Volunteer Bank Townships Sun ¦wJie Townships Sun, a monthly newspaper covering life in the Eastern Townships, is seeking both writers and people to do layout ^L.for their publication.Both tasks would require approximately three to four days per month.Skills: For the layout, no experience is necessary: training is provided.Volunteers should have a basic understanding of computers.However, a home computer is not necessary as you will be able to use the Townships Sun’s computer.Creative skills are welcome.No experience is necessary for aspiring writers.However, good English writing skills are required.For more information or to volunteer, contact Nancy Beattie at the Townships Sun at 819-566-7424, hr by email at nbeattie@ubishops.ca.On Volunteering “We are what we repeatedly do.” -Aristotle (Source: Charity Village) About the Volunteer Bank The Volunteer Bank is an initiative of Township-pers’ Association and was created as a result of a need expressed by English speakers to become more involved in their community, as well as to provide English-speaking volunteer support to community groups and organizations.Townshippers’ Association is a non-partisan, non-profit organization serving the English-speaking community in the Eastern Townships.Do you have a special talent, skill, or service you would like to provide on a volunteer basis?Is your group or organization looking for a few good volunteers?If so, contact Evelina Smith, coordinator of Townshippers’ Association’s Volunteer Bank at 819-566-2182 (toll free 1-877-566-2182), info@township-pers.qc.ca, or George Courville, coordinator of Partners for Health 8r Social Services - Townships-Montérégie Network at 450-263-4422 (toll free 1-866-263-4422), gc@townshippers.qc.ca.Weather Today: Cloudy with sunny periods.Rain beginning in the afternoon.High 26.Friday: Rain.Low 16.High 20.Saturday: Cloudy with 40 per cent chance of showers.Low 11.High 20.Sunday: Mix of sun and cloud.Low 10.High 26.Ben by Daniel Shelton WELL, HAVE YOU ~T ÏCUNP SOMWHCVBTtJ TmpicaïcT' LEAVE Aff TREES FOR A MONTH UNLESS IRNP » SOMEONE TO LOOK WFTERTHEM.SOMETIMES I VVÜNPEKX5EOR6E.SEEMS LIKE YOUR BONSAI TREES PICOTE THE LARGER PMTOf OUR LIVES.YOU SPENP MORE TIME WITH THEM THAN YOU TO WITH ME.' I X 1 Eastman’s railway heritage on display a"-"MÇ» E i - - For a year, it was named Dingman’s Flats By Maurice Crossfield Eastman Jim Sweet will open the door on the history of Eastman this weekend, and its longtime connection to the various railways that criss-crossed the municipality.“There are a lot of new people who have copie in and they don’t know the history of Eastman,” Sweet said during a tour of his exhibit Wednesday.“When they see the name Orford Mountain Railway, they think of the Orford Express (the tourist train).They don’t realize that it’s not the same thing at all.” For the last two decades Sweet, a lifelong railway buff, has collected an assortment of artifacts and photos.In all there are more than 250 pictures on display in what Sweet calls the Long House, built on his farm.Visitors will see some of the big events that shaped Eastman, from the CPR rail trestle collapse 100 years ago this November to Clare Lambert becoming the village’s first automobile owner, to the big flood of 1942 and the big fire a few years later.Eastman was an important railway hub in those early days, with the Orford Mountain Railway, the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Waterloo Magog Railway making their way through or near the tiny settlement.The local Caisse Populaire sits on the location of the Eastman train station, where the OMR and CPR lines met, but never crossed.The OMR travelled from Green-lay (or Windsor Mills) around Orford Mountain south to North Troy, Vt., while the CPR made the trip between Montreal and Sherbrooke.The Orford Mountain Railway was created in 1888, with construction work beginning in 1891.By 1894 it ran from Eastman to Kingsbury.The Canadian Pacific Railway took over the OMR in 1910.Over the years Eastman’s name changed as well, being known originally as Bolton Forest.It was then called Dingman’s Flats for a year or so, before becoming Eastman.The railway made Eastman an important place for other reasons as well.Some of the other settlements in the region were only accessible by rail; places like Ives Mine (now home to Copper Mine Camping), and the Dillonton, Huntingdon and Bolton mines, which were owned by Quebec Copper, needed the rails to get the ore out.MAURICE CROSSFIELD Jim Sweet has spent the last two decades collecting railway and historical memorabilia in and around Eastman.Now's your chance to get a look at it.The rail trestle remains a prominent feature of the town, the latest version coming after a cyclone took down the original in 1888, and a train on its way from Sherbrooke to Montreal derailed and took out the bridge in 1907.“That engine was on its maiden voyage on November 1, 1907,” Sweet said.In his research Sweet learned that part of the original wooden trestle was filled in with earth, and remains in place and in use today.A few years back when the rail bed started to shift engineers discovered that the original timbers are still under there.Sweet has also learned that in the absence of solid historical research, exactly what happened can be a bit of a mystery.As the population ages, eyewitnesses are increasingly rare.“One person tells you one thing and one tells you another,” he said.“Then you have to try to figure it out.” Today nothing remains of the original OMR line, though Sweet can identify signs of its existence here and there.The last section, between Valcourt and Eastman, was pulled up in 1965.Engine 29, which began its life on the OMR, now sits at the CPR’s head office in Winnipeg.The exhibit gives visitors a look at life in Eastman, and life on the rails as well.It was a time when large chunks of coal were broken with sledgehammers before firing the engines.A time when the telegraph was the fastest way to communicate between towns.A time when wealthy travellers came on the CPR and the OMR to the Potton Sulphur Springs Hotel for their health.The collection also includes a piece of rail from the OMR, which until recently had been used as a gatepost.There are also a couple of “putt-putts,” the motor cars used by railway repair crews.Sweet's exhibition gets underway Saturday morning, running every day from 9 a.m.to 5 p.m.until July 29.To get there take Route 112 to Eastman, turning onto Du Rocher.Follow the signs to 205 Du Rocher.mv § g l ¦ m • Announcing the new IiOW With delivery www.sherbrookerecorfl.com .¦THE* to your dining

Domtar in 1961.” Cascades took it over in 1983.Mail through East Angus will bear the special cancellation mark for one year.But for those whose letters don’t automatically go through this small Townships town, Canada Post is offering a perk.“If people would like to have an envelope of their own with the mark, they simply have to send a letter to the post office with a self addressed stamped envelope inside,” said Clement.“The post office will place the cancellation mark on the envelope and mail it back to you.” The address is 46 St-Jean Street, East Angus, JOB 1R0, and the office is open Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m.to 5:30 p.m.«1 » U 5'* # „ o-_ A/ The infamous stacks! now they can get one in East Angus.” The hand stamped mark (imprinted onto the postage stamp of every mailed envelope) depicts the large smoke stacks owned by the Cascades pulp and paper factory that visitors see when entering the town.“Everyone who lives in the area is familiar with those smoke stacks,” Clement said.“This is also used by the town as their logo.” But it’s the manufacturing process itself that’s being honoured.“What they do is truly unique and the cancellation mark commemorates 100 years of Kraft Pulp production in North America.” Pulp and paper is the third largest industrial polluter of air, water, and land in both Canada and the United States, releasing well over a hundred million kilograms of toxic pollution each year, according to the National Pollutant Release Inventory of 1996.Making paper also consumes vast quantities of trees (though they are a renewable resource).But paper is an essential product for many, so when it comes to pulping, Kraft is friendlier to the environment.Kraft pulping — also known as sulphate, or chemical pulping — uses sulphur to get fiber out of trees.The sulphur accounts for the rotten egg smell, but this form of pulping allows the factory to create more product from fewer trees.A bonus of Kraft pulping is that the chemicals are recycled and re-used in the East Angus mill and Kraft is exceptionally strong.Magazines, grocery bags and corrugated packaging are examples of products made with Kraft pulp.Accêfcüng to Cascades’ environment coordinator Richard Ravery, the mill has made many changes aimed at pre- serving the environment — but sometimes the public isn’t ready for greener products.“People want their paper white here in North America,” Ravery said."In its natural form Kraft pulp is brown and we do not have bleaching facilities.“Everything we produce is brown, so that is not a huge commodity here.If you travel to other places you will see that their toilet paper is brown so the bleaching process can be avoided, but we’re not ready for that yet.The sooner people start using the natural form the better it will be.” (Bleach adds yet another level of toxins to the environment.) In 2000 Cascades took another leap into the world of conservation.“We have never cut one tree to make our products here,” Ravery said.“We use scrap soft wood chips from lumber yards, but from 2000 to 2006 the scrap chips were harder to find, so we contracted workers to get dead wood from areas that had been stricken by forest fires.For us we could salvage that wood because even with the bleaching process that wood would always be gray, so big mills that produce white paper could not use it.We would add 20 to 30 per cent of salvaged trees to our regular mix and it would not make a difference to our product.” Ravery said the person who deserves the most credit for Kraft production itself in North America is a Finnish engineer named Bache-Wiig.“In 1905 the mill was owned by Royal Pulp & Paper.They produced Soda Pulp, but they went bankrupt and the town itself nearly closed.Workers were leaving to find more work,” Ravery said.“In 1907 Maine’s Brompton Pulp & Paper bought the plant and heard of Kraft paper.They contracted Bache-Wiig from Finland to transform the mill from Soda Pulp to Kraft Pulp.His second mandate was to come on the other side of the river and transform the paper mill so it would be capable of producing Kraft Paper.PERRY BEATON The postmark and, below, office staff.Water: Cont’d from Page 1 handle 80 per cent of the cyanotox-ins,” said Cowansville’s director general Mario Lafrance.“With this it will be able to handle 98 to 99 per cent.Even if we have more algae blooms in August or in the coming years we will be fine.” The new filtration unit is actually on loan from Granby.Lafrance said that city had a spare one and offered it.Ordering the same gadget from the manufacturer would mean a four to six week wait, which would have meant living through the most problematic time of the year for toxic blue-green algae.Last week residents were warned against drinking tap water when a bloom was seen in the lake near the treatment plant.Bottled water was handed out at the fire station and the shopping centre.“The water was always fine, there was no toxin found,” Lafrance said.Under public health regulations once an alert has been issued the municipality must pass four consecutive water tests over a two-week period.So far everything is on track to lift the restriction on July 25.The carbon filter unit will cost be tween $30,000 and $60,000, and is being installed on a temporary basis this summer.It will be permanently installed next year.“It is the best known filter for cyan-otoxins,” Lafrance said.He said this is a preventative measure which will ensure residents won’t have to line up for their bottled water anymore.“We don’t want to relive this.” Post: Cont’d from Page 1 _ - H I Ml —I ¦ jœcord; Crime up in Sherbrooke But down across Canada By Christopher Doody Sherbrooke ¦"w* * ¦yhile Canada’s % / crime rate is at a \I \i 25 year low, T ?crime is on the rise in Sherbrooke.According to a report by Statistics Canada released Wednesday, the city’s crime rate increased in all areas from 2005 to 2006.Sherbrooke’s homicide rate went from 0 to 0.7 per 100,000 people.Based on the population, that’s a single homicide, the Lennoxville Construction, etc.King Street closure Sections of Sherbrooke’s King Street West will be closed today and tomorrow to accommodate work on the city’s floral mosaics.That’s between 7 a.m.and 3 p.m., on sections of the road on either side of the flower bed medians, between Gordon and Wellington.Tilleuls and de Fontainebleau murder of Faye Geraghty.In comparison, the national homicide rate dropped, with 605 reported in 2006.That’s a decrease of 58 since 2005.For robbery, Sherbrooke saw an increase to 69 for every 100,000 people, up from 42 the year previous.Break-ins also went up from a rate of 789 to 810 per 100,000 inhabitants, as did motor vehicle thefts which increased to 451 from 387.The rate of criminal code violations rose to 5,491 from 5,042 in 2005.While crime was up in 2006, it is not as bad as it once was.It was the first year since 2003 that the total number of Criminal Code violations increased in Sherbrooke.And the number is still considerably less than it was in 2003.That year the crime rate was 6,094 out of every 100,000.In relation to Aqueduct repair will take place on Sherbrooke’s Tilleuls and de Fontainebleau streets today from 7 a.m.until 7 p.m.The two roads will be completely closed to traffic all day, forcing residents to park on nearby streets.Area residents should also note that their water will be turned off between 9 a.m.and 4 p.m.Pesticide spraying The City of Sherbrooke will spray the pesticide B.t.on trees located along median strips on Bourque Boulevard, between Léger Street and Mi-Vallon Boulevard.The spraying will begin today and continue until July 27, between 5 a.m.and 8 a.m.The city says the spraying is meant to help manage an infestation of white-haired caterpillars.Studies show B.t.(Bacillus thuringiensis) to be practically nontoxic to humans and animals, according to a press release.Magog roadwork In the coming months, the town of Magog will see infrastructure development valued at more than $4 million.The upgrades will consist mostly of road work as well as to sewer mains and aqueducts in certain areas.Work is expected to last from August to November.The construction will impact 17 streets in Magog.Beginning today, however, is construction work to create loading zones at Saint-Patrice and Brassard elementary schools.This construction will finish in mid August.During this period, Saint-Patrice West, College and Sainte-Catherine streets will be occasionally closed.other large cities in Quebec, Sherbrooke falls in the middle in terms of the rate of Criminal Code violations.The city did better than Montreal (6,912 out of 100,000), and Gatineau (5,645), but worse than Quebec City (4,931), Trois-Rivières (4,792) and Saguenay (4,038).As for the province, the statistics are promising.The homicide rate in Quebec (1.2 per 100,000 population) is the lowest in 40 years.As well, all provinces reported increases in their youth crime, except Quebec, where it fell 4 per cent, and property crimes have also gone down.In terms of violent crime, however, while rates declined or remained stable in all provinces, there were slight increases in Quebec and Saskatchewan.Quebec saw a 2 per cent increase in violent crimes, going from 739 per 100,000 people to 756.This is the second year in a row the province has seen a two per cent increase in violent crimes.Thursday, July 19,

Blvd.in Rock-Forest at around 2 a.m.Wednesday.Since then, the Sherbrooke police and the Sûreté du Québec have been doing searches in the area, said Alain Carrier, a No deal By Christopher Doody Sherbrooke pi Jie negotiations between I "Bishop’s University and its | non-academic staff’s ¦A.union appears to have hit another impasse, only two weeks before student registration is supposed to begin.On July 9, the the Association of Professors of Bishop’s University (APBU) tabled a proposal.On July 11, the university responded with an offer.On Monday night, the union presented it counter offer.“The counter offer was not acceptable, and it did not address a lot of the critical issues,” said David McBride, a spokesman for Bishop’s administration.APBU president Ginny Stroe-her, however, said yesterday the union had not yet received an official rejection of the offer from the university.Nonetheless, a press release from management stated that “the union’s counter offer clearly demonstrates an unwillingness to accept the context of the current situation and to work with the university to find solutions that will ensure a strong future for Bishop’s University.” The press release also reinforces the university’s current economic positions — it is currently $5 million in debt, with a projected $3 million deficit for the next academic year.The union says that negotiations are still ongoing.“We are meeting again tomorrow with the conciliators,” said Stroeher.While negotiations continue, both sides may soon have a new in- spokesman for the Sherbrooke police.Officers are also doing searches with dogs in the sector where she lived, around Rousseau Street in Sherbrooke.Blais has not been seen since she left her house at 7:45 a.m.on July 12.Blais (pictured) is 48 kg and 1.65 m tall.She has blue eyes and auburn hair, and speaks French.Sherbrooke blood donors Héma-Québec will hold a blood donor clinic today and Friday in Sherbrooke.It will be held in the central mall of the Place Belvedere shopping centre (at 340 Belvédère St.South) from 10 a.m.to 8 p.m.centive to resolve the conflict quickly.“We are working on a very serious deadline.Student registration is supposed to begin at the beginning of August, so we are evaluating all options,” said McBride.“We are considering all options and all measures necessary to find a solution to this labour conflict.We have a semester that is going to begin, we hope, in September." No details were given as to what these options might include.“The union is still hoping that this can be wrapped up by August or before,” said Stroeher.“We didn’t go out in August because we wanted to try and get things resolved before then to minimize any impact on the upcoming academic year.“We are hoping that the university is also worried enough to move on things, and a straight out rejection of our counter proposal does not appear to me that they are concerned about the August registration deadline,” she said.The non-academic staff of Bishop’s, numbering about 140, has been on strike since June 28.The union will get extra support on its picket lines tomorrow, as representatives from other universities fly in from around the country.There will be a demonstration at the entrance to Bishop’s University at 10:30, said Stroeher.This is the second time “flying pickets” have given their support to the union’s strike.On July 5,11 university representatives stood alongside Bishop’s staff.The union will hold a general meeting on Friday with all three of its bargaining units, “to discuss the union’s course of action forward,” states a press release.Michel Puval Advertising Consultant Tel 819*569»9525 Fax.819-S21 -37 79 mduval@sherbrookerecord.com R1 :c< )R11 I «* ' ¦: i;

Why write it in the first place?” June 22 Record).I can assure your readers that tensions and power struggles are common things, at every level of the organization.It’s my opinion that the wasted energy would be much more usefully invested in serving the communities surrounding the congregations.Secondly, your latest article is interesting (“Living off the plate: the de- cline of the church”, July 13 Record), but I believe that the real issue is “service to the community” rather than a “language barrier”.The church needs to be involved within their communities, offering support and creating programs designed to serve families, and mainly youth, in a caring and dedicated manner.What I see happening is belly button gazing: it’s not about “what can our congregation do for you”, but rather “what can you do for us”.I was standing one day in Waterloo, just in front of St-Paul’s United Church.I simply asked people where the United Church was.all but one couldn’t show me.The organization needs to focus on their mission, not their belly button.Jocelyn Trottier Lac-Brome Richler misspelled ‘Epps’ Dear editor Gould Station, now a cluster of three homes and no train stop, is immortalized in Bernard Epps’s former Lindisfarne, which was described «83?t briefly by Charles Bury in fun anecdotes at the memorial service for Bernie in Lennoxville Saturday.(See also “Wrote celebrated The Outlaw of Megantic”, July 13 Record.) We were also treated to a reading by Bernie’s daughter Jennifer from Pilgar-lic the Death.¦ It was Bernard Epps’s first novel, published in 1967, and opens brilliantly with a mythical preacher walking into Stormaway, Quebec.The opening to Mordecai Richler’s 1989 novel, Solomon Gursky Was Here, is haunt-ingly similar to Epps’s opening.In Solomon Gursky, Richler credits Bernie’s Tales of the Townships, but as Bernie always delighted in pointing out, Richler misspelled “Epps”.Bernard Epps belongs in the same class of quality Canadian writers as Mordecai Richlei and Robertson Davies — perhaps not for numbers of books sold but certainly for the quality of his writing.He chose a small audience, but his fiction and his popular histories have, as Charlie said on Saturday, made the Eastern Townships — and beyond — a better place.Scott Stevenson Mont St-Hilaire ii —THE — RECORD P.0.Boh 1200Sbobroote J1H SL6 or 1I9S Galt E.Shotnoke JIG 1Y7 Fax: 819-5693945 e-mail: newsroom6shert>rookerecoid.coiii Website: wwwjhertHDokcFecofd.com Randy Kinnear Publisher .(819)569-9511 Eleanor Brown Editor .(819)5696345 Richard Lessard Prod.Mcr.(819) 5699931 Serge Gagnon Chief Pressman .(819) 5699931 Francine Thirault Prod Superv (819)5694856 DEPARTMENTS Accounting.(819)5699511 Advertising.(819)5699525 Circulation.(819)5699528 Newsroom .(819)5696345 Knowlton office 88-A Lakeside, Knowlton, Quebec JOE 1V0 Tel: (450) 242-1188 Fax:(450)243-5155 mail subscriptions GST PST TOTAL Canada: 1 yea* 120.00 7.20 9.54 $136.74 6 months 63.00 3.78 5.01 $71.79 3 MONTHS 32.00 1.92 2.54 $36.46 Out of Quebec residents do not include PST.Rates for other services available on request The Record is published daily Monday to Friday.Back copies of The Record are available.The Record was founded on February 7.1897, and acquired the Sherbrooke Examiner (est.1879) in 1905 and the Sherbrooke Gazette (est.1837) in 1908.The Record is published by Alta Newspaper Group Umited Partnership.PM#0040007682 Return undeliverable Canadian addresses to The Record, 1195 Galt East.Sherbrooke.QC JIG 1Y7 Member ABC, CARD.CNA, QCNA Tell us what you’re thinking!

The first time I broke a tooth was when I was about 17.Some friends and I had managed to get some beer and had taken to the woods.(Attention children: I am in no way condoning this behaviour.It was entirely irresponsible of me and could potentially have led to a life of crime, debauchery and chronic halitosis.) These were the days before twist-off caps.If you didn’t have an opener, one of the best ways to uncap beer bottles was to find a flat piece of metal, like the railing on a bridge, rest the lip of the cap on the flat edge, and give the top of the bottle a hard smack with the palm of your hand.You ended up shattering the necks off the odd one, and the tell-tale bruises on your palm were a surefire way to raise suspicion back home.But it was totally worth it.Unfortunately, on this particular occasion, in the middle of the woods, there were no bridges around.And no one had a lighter, that other all-purpose bottle-opener.So we set to work popping the caps with our teeth.I’d seen it done but had never tried.How hard could it be?I jammed the bottle against my molars and yanked down hard.Crunch! There was either glass in my mouth or a piece of tooth.Either way it wasn’t good.I spit out a piece of tooth and felt around my mouth with my tongue.I felt what seemed like a huge hole.I was distressed.But I think I did manage to get the cap off so, again, totally worth it.Ross Murray The second time I broke a tooth was last week.I did it biting a fingernail.Which brings me to my point: It really, really sucks getting old.What’s worse is that my body is starting to feel past its prime but in my mind I still feel young enough to get away with saying “sucks.” Here I am with body parts falling off under the strain of biting off other soft-tissue body parts, and in my head I can imagine myself doing tequila shots in some run-down bar and then challenging a biker named Chainsaw to a tree-climbing contest.(Again, children, I am not endorsing such behaviour, which is stupid and wrong and likely to lead to a person doing jail time and/or voting Republican.) But I know that if I were to spend a night doing tequila shots and climbing anything I would need three days of bed-rest, interrupted only by a priest ready to administer last rites.When did this happen?When did I get old?When did grunting become an integral part of getting up from a chair?When did I become so comfortable asking my wife, “Does this spot look funny to you?” When did gardening start to involve heavy breathing?When did it start looking like I had two pairs of eyelids?When did I start to run like that?When did I start making bathroom visits at the exact same time EVERY SINGLE DAY?And what the hell is THAT?I’m still thin, but the other day 1 was in the shower (pause while reader creates mental image and overcomes terrible case of the willies) when I noticed I’ve got this little pot.It looks like I’m two months pregnant.I had a vision of my dad (likewise skinny to this day) walking along the beach, his little belly peeking out over his too-skimpy swim trunks.Good lord! I’m trapped in my father’s body! I know I’m not saying anything new and really I don’t expect any sympathy.Many reading this have long passed the midlife mark and make comparing ailments and prescriptions part of their daily conversational routine.I just don’t feel I’m ready for this.So what’s the remedy?Well, 1 could exercise more, eat better, take calcium so my teeth don’t crack biting into a piece of tinned asparagus.But then.I’ve discovered one of the few upsides to getting older: the right to complain.It’s actually kind of fun.11 PC SET w/Titanium Driver Reg.$600 NOW $200, Receive wedge FREE Wilson Pro-Select Dunlop Irons Fairway Woods nn Reg.$49.99 - $129.99 now $9.99-$29.99 Titanium Square Driver Reg.$249.00 $49.99 Wilson Wedge $15 3-Wheel Cart $69.99 Dunlop Carry Bag w/Stand $29.99 - Wilson Hybrid $19.99 14 Way Full Length Dividal Bag $69.99 Taylor Made Clevelan Callaway Hats $9.Cabaretta d Gloves 2.or$15.00 Putters $10 MLH11pc.set $100 ,99 Golf Towels $4.99 Shoes $49 Head Covers $2.99 Oversize Driver Cover $5 Thousands of Callaway, Ashworth, Izod Shirts $25.00 ea.Top-Flite Golf Shirts $5.99 Cutter & Buck, DLX Golf Shirts Reg.$69.99 $12.99 Ram Wind Shirts Reg.$100 $19.99 AND A LOT MORE! days only, everything DELTA HOTEL www.golfliquidator.ca Jhur^ Ju|y 2685 King St.West, SHERBROOKE Fri, July 2< Thur., July 19 10 a.m.-9 p.m.Fri., July 20 10 a.m.-9 p.m.BsicrCard ! page 8 Thursday, July 19, 2007 Î ¦¦THE—, - RECORD There was no light-bulb moment sags» sm ¦Æÿt* iéifS m-SM' üSlfiB?UijmÊiltÊIÉiÈIÈÈtÈ»ÊÊÈàÈ»ÉÈiÊÈÊiÈÊÉà COURTESY Dustin Ruck is making ago of a career choice some don’t respect.¦ÜJ FONDATION ^*s êna&hyouR here's aumte Elizabeth, \ April wasn't born when becai -unruepc.u /wiu PADDY71 RAD WHEN HE J SlANP HERES GRANDMA ELL/.)

Look around the house to see what you can do to make things a bit more harmonious or artistic.If you’ve got the desire to do so, your talent will measure up to what you conceive.UiO (July 23-Aug.22) — Your restless spirit needs a balance in your life that permits you to actively move around both mentally and physically.By adding a little challenge to that, things could get quite fun.VIRGO (Aug.23-Sept.22) - Don’t be so quick to dismiss a bright idea that you feel could make or save you some money.What you conceive will turn out to work better than you thought.LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23) - If you should get involved in some type of group activity, don’t settle for being just one of the crowd.Put your leadership qualities to work and suggest a game plan to follow.SCORPIO (Oct.24-Nov.22) - Two separate friends may sense you’re a person upon whom they can place their trust and confide their innermost and most troubling secrets.You’ll be a big help.SAGITTARIUS (Nov.23-Dec.21) - Your expectations could be rather high, but that doesn’t make them faulty or wrong.Having large hopes promotes greater motivation than usual to climb to the top of the ladder.CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) - Whistle while you work because finding enjoyment in your labor makes progress come far easier, as well as quicker.This holds true for even your more serious involvements.AQUARIUS (Jan.20-Feb.19) — One of your best assets is the ability to take complicated concepts or suggestions and sort them in ways that root out the core values they have to offer.You’ll be at your best with this.PISCES (Feb.20-March 20) -

If you can give expression to your work with a bit of an artistic or creative touch, it would do wonders for making things a bit interesting.There’s a chance it might please others as well.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — If your life has been boring or dull in the romance department lately, don’t despair.Cupid could usher in an interesting change for you that will be most pleasant.Thursday, July 19,2007 The older guys had to play longer By Phillip Alder At the Peek Freans 14th Asia & Middle East Bridge Championships in Karachi, Pakistan, two months ago, the senior teams final looked to be an easy win for India, who led over Pakistan after 40 of the 60 boards by 109 international match points to 62.But a stirring final session for Pakistan left the score at 143-143.Til ere would be a four-board playoff.Board 1 is in the diagram.At the other table, Archie Sequira (West for India) opened one diamond.After North passed, Ashok Ruia (East) responded two clubs.Now, though, when Sattar Cochinwala (South for Pakistan) jumped to four hearts, it went pass -pass - five diamonds - all pass.Declarer lost one spade and one heart: plus 400 to India.The second auction is given.Anwar Kamal (West for Pakistan) passed as dealer.His partner, Ghulam Muhammad, opened one club in the third position, and Subhash Gupta (South for India) jumped to four hearts.West made a negative double, but East passed, thinking it more likely that his side could win four tricks (to defeat four hearts) than 11 (to make five of a minor).West led his singleton club queen, North 07-19-07 A 8 6 V Q 9 4 ?J 8 A K 10 7 5 3 2 West East A A 9 4 3 A J 10 7 V 7 2 V J ?KQ6532 ?A 10 9 4 A Q A A J 9 8 4 South A K Q 5 2 VAK 10 8653 ?7 A 6 Dealer: West Vulnerable: Neither South West North East Pass Pass 1A 4 V Dbl.All pass Opening lead: * Q which was covered by the king and ace.To beat the contract, East had to shift to a trump (although he could have cashed the diamond ace first).When East returned a low club, declarer discarded his inevitable diamond loser.West ruffed, but now declarer could trump both of his low spades on the board.Another 590 to India gave them 14 imps on the board and eventually the playoff victory, winning by 24 imps to 6.CROSSWORD ACROSS 1 Swindle 5 Steal 10 Flog 14 Asian desert 15 Assisted 16 Prime'ranking 17 Start of Evan Esar quote 20 Melee 21 Stan of Marvel Comics 22 John of pop music 23 Rushed 25 Mop 27 Be obliged to 30 Part 2 of quote 35 Fruit ice 37 Spread over a surface 38 Cruising V 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 48 49 50 52 55 57 61 64 65 66 67 Secret cache Actor Holbrook End of bread Fashion maven Klensch Base Treat with an antiseptic Part 3 of quote Set the pace Pesters Type of duck?Studio sign Dec.24th or 31th Ice breaker, briefly End of quote Fateful day for Caesar Of atomic number 56 Israeli port Welshman, e.g.Wednesday's Puzzle Solved M A c 1 R E C A P| 1 L .1 1 0 N A i R R E V 1 V A L M E A R E T E M G O A T C A M E E S T F A R A d| [L O P E S u L E G Y T 1 N G S G O T O A N N E DHE N R O L L C O U CAPOT P O N ATTN SESSIONS ITALY F O R A G G I F RALE CALA NOCENTPAR E S A D Eli G O A L SHN E T C A M E A D G R E LET E R N A N E C)2007 Tribune Media Senrices, Inc.All rights reserved.7/19/07 68 Silly 69 Make over DOWN 1 Some NCOs 2 Essential part 3 Be up against 4 Fielders’ gloves 5 Clemente, CA 6 Brandishes 7 Cannes conception 8 Statue’s base 9 Tokyo, once 10 Gypsum plaster item 11 Wilhelm of Cooperstown 12 Enthralled by 13 Exploited laborer 18 Jumped on one foot 19 Close by 44 24 Wolf down 46 26 With what motive?47 27 Milo of “The Verdict” 51 28 Writer Virginia 52 29 Answering machine button 53 31 Cabbage salads 54 32 Ordinary 56 33 “Beau 58 34 Despised 59 36 Maximally muscular 60 40 Rider 62 41 Infinitely extended 63 43 Gam Actress Claire Greenery in Paris Unsaturated hydrocarbon Go in Psych final?Protuberance First victim “At This Moment” singer Billy Roofer's supply item Highway Suspicious of Kimono sash Hot diamonds 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 14 15 17 18 20 21 35 39 42 45 130 36 24 137 Ï40 143 Ï49 52 53 61 64 67 54 46 155 162 165 168 By Alan P.Olschwang Huntington Beach, CA 56 116 122 26 11 12 13 32 |38 33 34 51 |57 63 58 59 60 7/19/07 I i Mari iaaatoi l*0toii Aim ainaWIKaal ia»m?*wMwusm«nM7s«i a 17IWS MB «07.» la* PaMIMAa*! »**« F a an*» ru—w ca>*»fam»i i arm u: amt* rttamal '•tWlwMi mtmjn* raaa «wnulaprHMli AUK» mi at MR KNnartnctomM ihtM mi jmt M ChfAt * Jmp In Mini jriMt Sac iMMtortv MMaathrl .tea tmm.tea NM m tea *Nataa Haute ¦ •» HR ' CateiaCteNatel IKlIrma tea* maty 'tmtSMu *m7 im*CwmteMa)at Mum I at Mail RRa MU.1m( all l»laaRi«ml»KM»1aiiialiiinlliariaw»)R1>imaiaaniiaaRa«atHI,MUa mama im Tail aa Hall nmtei* *Uinat * HteaOnWa f aiwte* m* ate Run R hteatete» fate te, nate aaHa>mii«imittnRi tapnla cam a*mwwarn REBATE x Em* jJmw LEASE FOR PER MONTH.60-MOHTH LEASE.$0 SECURITY DEPOSIT.$2,350 DOWN PAYMENT.Monthly Down Payment $234° $0 fMl consumption: Highway: 6.81/100 km (42 mpgV City: 151/180 hm (23 mpg)i Ciffi PAGE 20 THE RECORD Thursday, July 19, 2007 IT’S TIME YOU GOT YOUR FIRST NEW CAR.2007 DODGE CALIBER SXT • 158-hp 1.8-L DOHC • 5-speed manual transmission • Air conditioning • Power windows, locks, mirrors, remote keyless entry • AM/FM CD with MP3 compatible stereo and audio input jack • 17-inch wheels • Front & side airbags * * * * NHTSA 5 star front and side impact1 2907 Jmp Patriot Limitai Haiti Stare 2007 JEEP PATRIOT Purchase for *16,995 NHTSA 5 star safe impact* HmmUt/IRtalRaNr car tai/iwuadi an)’ * 2007 Jmp Wrin*fw Rubicon! haw Sbown 2007 JEEP WRANGLER Purchase for *19,995 hr NHTSA 5 star front impact' *maarlUUlMaanta*|»- chr Mjt/tMaaniaaa7' VISIT YOUR CHRYSLER • JEEP, • DODGE RETAILER OR DAIMLERCHRYSLER.CA TODAY.2007 JEEP COMPASS Purchase for *17,995 NHTSA 5 stai side impact’ ¦afcnrMMM »¦ (* war caruumiad! am 20C7 JHp CaapMa U»lt*a model Shown
