^ iil GORDON LAMBIE The Quebec government has kicked in close to $100,000 to renovate Sherbrooke schoolsyards.MNAs meet By Gordon Lambie At their first local press conference since April’s elections, Sherbrooke’s rookie Liberal MNAs Luc Fortin and Guy Hardy both expressed that they feel positive about their first three months in office.“I am very happy to have been elected, even if there is a lot to learn," Hardy said, “The National Assembly is very impressive when you arrive there for the first time; I am learning quickly.” On a break between Parliamentary commissions, the Saint-François MNA said that he is focusing his energy on visiting his constituents during the summer and hearing what is on people’s minds.He recalled recent visits to Coaticook, Baldwin’s Mills, and Lennoxville and explained that he’ll be visiting area fairs as well.“We call it summer holidays, but our office is open,” Hardy said, “We have a vacation from Quebec City, but we’re working here at home.” Sherbrooke MNA Luc Fortin is not a newcomer to the National Assembly, having worked as an aide to different MNAs in the past, including then-Pre-mier Jean Charest, but he said that this time around is quite different.“I was an advisor before and now I am right in the action,” Fortin said, “I knew what I was getting into, but it’s different all the same.There are adaptations to make.” The MNA said that he was glad to be present in Sherbrooke now as he felt that the Assembly schedule had kept MNAs in the provincial capital quite a lot early on.Despite that restriction, however, Fortin nonspecifically stated that he had met with a large number of citizens and that he would have, “many interesting announcements” in the near future “Things are going well,” he added, stating that he feels very supported by the more experienced MNAs in office, and welcoming groups with concerns to bring them to his attention.By Gordon Lambie Sherbrooke Sherbooke’s MNAs gathered together at École Champlain on Galt Street Wednesday to announce contributions to four school yard renovation projects in the region.The con- tributions, totaling $98,241, were made on behalf of the Ministry of Education Leisure and Sport and come as a part of a province-wide schoolyard improvement subsidy that is benefitting 153 different projects this year for a total of close to $3 million.“We know that sport and recreation have positive benefits on scholastic success,” said Sherbrooke MNA Luc Fortin, “this is a measure to improve students’ lives, but also life in the surrounding neighbourhoods.” Cont’d on Page 3 ¦ THE i RECORD SPËCÎÀLOFFlRfor Record" punt, subscribers;

Sunday morning, July 6, several gathered at the hall and Don Kelso as their guide visited the monument at Lake Joseph where many of the early Scot tish settlers are buried including John and Mary Kelso.Several also visited the Adderley Presbyterian Cemetery where John and Della Kelso are buried.Again back to the hall a tasty brunch was enjoyed by everyone thanks to Lisa and her helpers.Too soon it was time for departures with promises to keep in touch.Melanie Rothney Keating (Kenneth’s granddaughter) and her husband Mike travelled from Kitimat B.C.Others came from Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire in the U.S., along with Ontario, Sherbrooke, Lennoxville, Waterville, Brome and the Inverness area.Thanks to everyone for their interest and participation to make the first Kelso reunion a success.To those unable to be present, some due to health issues or other reasons, you were missed.Everyone was reacquainted with cousins not seen for several years and the younger folks met new relatives for the first time and hopefully they will meet again in the future.À family reunion is a great way to honour our ancestors and was a much enjoyed event.Ben by Daniel Shelton

investigations have shown that the the client's base, the support on which the meter is mounted, had a defect,” Sherbrooke & Quebec ‘smart meters' not a fire risk Not the same technology as SaskPower, Hydro says By Gordon Lambie Sherbrooke Last week Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall made headlines across the country when he decided to pull the plug on the province’s “smart meter” installation.The decision came about after eight of the devices that had been installed caught fire, raising new questions about the already controversial wireless electrical meters.In light of the new doubts, however, both Hydro Sherbrooke and Hydro Quebec are assuring their respective client bases that the situation in the prairies has no bearing on their own “smart meter” programs.SaskPower, the Saskatchewan equivalent of Hydro-Quebec, began to replace the wireless meters after eight out of the 105,000 meters that had been installed caught fire.The company maintains that the risk of meter failure is “extremely low,” stating that the decision to cut the new installation comes as a result of customers no longer feeling safe with the meters installed.“Saskatchewan did not use the same type of next-generation meter as Hydro Quebec,” said Isabelle Thellen, head of media and public affairs for Hydro Que- bec, “They do not come from the same supplier and thus no link can be made between the two situations.” Nancy Corriveau, communications agent for the city of Sherbrooke explained that the municipal power company uses a device very similar to the one in the process of being installed across the province by Hydro-Quebec.“It’s effectively the same technology as Hydro-Quebec, so there is no risk,” Corriveau said, expressing that Hydro Sherbrooke similarly has no concerns about the smart-meters installed in the city.According to Thellen all of the next-generation meters being installed in Quebec have been approved by Measurement Canada and Industry Canada as being safe.The approval process involves a dozen different tests to consider factors such as temperature variation, electrical shock and impacts at different angles.She said that, to date, 1.7 million of the 3.8 million meters Hydro-Quebec plans to install have been set up and everything is going very well.Thellen added that, to the best of Hydro Quebec’s knowledge.Hydro Sherbrooke is not working with ’’next generation” meters.She clarified that it is important not to confuse 2nd genera- HYDRO-QUKBEC • m • tion radio frequency meters that can be read wirelessly with the next-generation meters that will make up an automated, self-reading power grid for the provincial corporation.“With regard to fires, in the rare cases elsewhere in the world where such an incident has taken place, investigations have shown that the the client’s base, the support on which the meter is mounted, had a defect,” Thellen continued, “should a base break during the replacement of a meter, the installer calls a master electrician.” The Corporation of Master Electricians of Quebec (CMEQ) issued a reminder in November of 2013 of the importance of regularly verifying the condition of one’s meter.According to the reminder, a 25 year old building that has never gone through any electrical renovations or upkeep should undergo a complete inspection by a master electrician, as even the slightest corrosion of the electrical system can be a fire hazard.The installation of wireless and the new, next-generation meters have raised many concerns from members of the general population over recent years based on the fear that their use of electromagnetic fields in transmitting data is harmful to certain individuals.These individuals, referred to as having “electrohypersensitivity” or EHS, suffer from symptoms ranging between mild irritations and debilitating pain.The World Heath Organization (WHO) recognizes the existence and legitimacy of the symptoms of EHS, but does not recognize it as a medical diagnosis based on there being, “no clear diagnostic criteria,” and, “no scientific basis to link EHS symptoms to (electromagnetic field) exposure.” Cont’d on Page 5 Schoolyards Cont’d from Page 1 The four schools receiving government support for their renovations are Ecole Champlain and École Sylvestre in Sherbrooke, École Boisjoli in Rock Forest, and Lennoxville’s École Saint-Antoine.Total investments, including the Government support, total $597,000 “It’s a program that supports groups in improving their schoolyards together,” Fortin explained, pointing out that within the guidelines of the subsidy, the Provincial Government will finance up to one third of the work or $25,000, whichever comes first.In order to qualify schools must be able to submit a plan that outlines what their improvements will be and how they will benefit student life, as well as a complete financial forecast, indicating complete estimated cost as well as a list of all the school’s funding partners.“$chools make requests every October," the Sherbrooke MNA explained, “the majority of the projects are admissible, and the school board here told us that they have never had a project refused by the government.” Guy Hardy, MNA for the Saint-Francois riding, said that $314,000 of the $597,000 the local community is investing in schoolyards is going to St.Antoine.The school as well as the greater Lennoxville community will benefit from new play equipment, a resurfaced play yard, and a new soccer field.“All the citizens of Lennoxville will benefit from these new installations,” Hardy said, calling the work a concrete action to improve family life in the region, “it is a way our communities contribute to a way of life centered on physical activity and healthy habits.” Asked about the location of this new soccer field, given the small size of the school’s yard, the MNA was unable to say where it was to be situated, stating only that it would be elsewhere in the near vicinity.Karine Vallières, MNA for the Richmond riding, spoke of her pleasure at the continued renovations to the yard at École Boisjoli in Rock Forest, stating that it is also the neighbourhood park to which she brings her own children to play.“We want our children to remember their school years with joy,” Vallières said, “but despite the best efforts of the schools, it’s not the classes we remember but time spent with friends and teachers in the schoolyard.” Improving the yard, the MNA explained, improves the overall experience of the children playing in it.École Champlain is currently the only one of the four schools with a completed yard, but Hardy said that finishing work by the start of the school year was a condition for the initial approval of government funding.Specialist of

One Column, Four Voices Opening to the Spirit Today’s word: Attention By Revs.Mead Baldwin, W.Lynn Dill-abough, Lee Ann Hogle, and Carole Martignacco 1) Pay attention, the teachers always said, don’t get distracted.I heard those words countless times in various classrooms.Sometimes it even helped.As I grow older, I wonder sometimes, what I am supposed to pay attention to; the regular work that needs to be done, the news headlines, the foibles and flaws of the people around me, the directions on a package from IKEA.I suppose I could live a very contented life paying attention to all the details of the everyday, but I have never been very good at that.My mother would send me off to the store for bread, milk, and eggs.I would arrive and have to call home to see what she wanted.My head had been full of butterflies, cloud formations, and wonder.Now.as I reflect on life I am glad that 1 spent time lost in imagination, or sto- rytelling, or nature, or a book.Pay attention, yes, but pay attention to the beauty of creation, the joys and sorrows of the people we care about, the sense of the spirit within calling us to new adventures, different paths to explore, creative ideas about community, passion and possibility.In our weekly column my hope is to draw attention to the things that really matter, to the beauty and wonder and awesomeness of the world we live in.Pay Attention! 2) Where should we direct our attention?There is attention outward and attention inward.Both are vital to spiritual practice.Outward attention allows us to connect with those around us.There is no kindness without first paying attention.We all know the experience of having our life interrupted by our sudden attention to the urgent needs of someone else: Our child has fallen and comes to us with bleeding knees; Our friend calls in distress be- cause a tragedy has struck their life; We come across a lost and hungry dog who seeks us out with pleading eyes.In these moments we forget whatever else we were doing or thinking and pay attention.What would it be like if we could pay attention like that more often?What would the world be like if more of us could put our own concerns aside in order to attend to those around us.This kind of self-forgetting and care for others by outward attention is a deep spiritual practice which can be cultivated, strangely enough, by paying attention inward.All religious traditions seem to have a practice of inward attention.There are at least a thousand ways to still the mind in order to drop beneath our thoughts to the place where we encounter God.The former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, has recently recommended the spiritual practice of reciting the Jesus prayer, which is found in orthodox teaching.This prayer, repeated like a mantra, takes our attention from ourselves to a deeper place of connection.It is one of many ways to learn to pay attention.3) Confession: Each morning for the last 2 weeks my alarm goes off at 4:30.This is so that I can get up, brush my teeth and feel awake and alert for my 5 a.m.meditation practice.It is meant to go until 6 a.m.This has been a challenging two weeks.After the first few days of disciplined practice I found myself sliding down the slippery slope of procrastination and inertia.This morning I finally got to my meditation bench at 6 a.m.and from 6 to 7 my mind wandered and drifted, full of projects not completed; altogether too many to be affording myself the time to waste one whole hour of meditation.When I wasn’t thinking about the work to be done, 1 would review all the irksome encounters experienced in the recent past and stew about what had gone wrong.The point is my attention was not on the task at hand.Why is it I have such a hard time paying attention to what is happening right now?It was so easy to keep my focus when I was freshly back from my ten day retreat.Things would be just perfect if life didn’t keep undermining my best intentions.4) Attention - is so elusive.The day moves so quickly into routine and schedules, all the make-ready tasks claiming their time-slots in the daily planner, most days better named the “day crammer”.But first - let the cats in, if they are out -or out, if they are in, make the coffee, water the plants, morning exercises on the deck.Then check the email, a brief glimpse at the world news.When the phone rings, it’s off and running.To pay attention, I have learned I must pay it early.Keep my appointment with the sunrise, that astonishing crimson/gold, fuchsia turning to rose, then lavender at the edges light show spreading across the sky, flooding the horizon with streaks of welcoming colour.Once I see it, how can I not pay attention?The morning hour has gold in its mouth, goes the old German proverb - and all the colours of the spectrum.Not just the colours, but sounds.A whole landscape awakens in response.Among the bird calls this morning, one brilliant soloist -playing the oboe score -sounds a two-note aria above the other voices.And far in the distance, a two-note answer echoes from somewhere across the pond, behind the trees.This morning the trees shivered and whispered: rain is coming, shhhh - it’s coming, soon.One particular weed bent at a precarious angle, like a compass nee die, giving directions.I go inside for sketchpad and pencils.Before the day gets underway, the pencil hovers above the page, forcing me to look, to claim a few moments and pay attention.One word, four voices.Now add your own: How do you pay attention?The Reverends Mead Baldwin, W.Lynn Dill-abaugh, Lee Ann Hogle, and Carole Martignacco are interfaith clergy colleagues in the Eastern Townships.DO YOU NEED AN AMERICAN ADDRESS?With prices starling at $4 per package, - you can use ours!

Cast Lead to Protective Edge: Collective punishment redux By Gib Mdnnis François Tanguay The arrival of oil in Quebec is not news.We consume between 325,000 and 350, 000 barrels of black gold every single day.Our oil comes mainly from the North Sea and North Africa.Only 8per cent comes from Canada, Newfoundland to be precise.It arrives by ship to the ports of St-Ro-muald across from Quebec City, and of course Montreal.Most of that oil is of good quality, light sweet crude, yes, there are qualities, densities of oil : the worst kind being the tar sands kind.That’s why Quebec becoming a hub is something to worry about.The battles over a new generation of pipelines to the West Coast in British-Co-lumbia, to the US via the Keystone XL project and through the Prairies, Ontario and Quebec to reach the East Coast have been front page for a while.All three are knee deep in procedural battles, social protest and environmental issues and God knows what will become of these billion dollar ventures.The ultimate goal for the Alberta oil sands industry is to reach world markets where the best prices and future sales are.Where does Quebec as a hub fit in?Well, the St-Lawrence river is a direct link to the European markets and to the East coast refineries in both the US and Canada.Suncor, the oil sands giant, has made a run at getting to those customers first.Since the pipelines will not be available at best for three to five years.why not use rail?So the cars have begun slowly rolling in to Sorel, just outside the limits of Montreal harbour, where they are stored in huge reservoirs awaiting to be shipped by tankers to the refineries of either the East coast (the Irvings have a direct interest in the Energy East Tran-sCanada project), or even to US instala-tions.The Quebec oil hub is for all intents and purposes functional.What is infuriating many citizens and the environmental community is that all this is going on without any serious environmental assessment being made.The oil from the tar sands is thick, inflamable and, as we have seen with recent incidents, not easy to handle once it is lost in the environment.What is even more frustrating is that Suncor had long insisted on the fact that Western oil was going to serve our needs.That’s baloney, the Energy East line alone would move as much as one million barrels a day, three times our needs! Everyone knows the only interest Suncor ever had was to export to higher paying customers.Even at the current low price of S105 a barrel, outside markets are at least $10 above the West Texas Intermediate price, which is still higher than the lower grade tar sands oil gets.Once in Sorel the oil still has to be shipped elsewhere to be refined and that will not happen in Quebec because of the established contracts and the limited capacities we have.Ships will come.Bottom line is until the pipelines battles evolve there will be a small hub just outside Montreal for the tar sands industry.Nothing good from the standpoint of economics will come out of this for the Province.Not a drop of this oil will stay here, no jobs will be created, no new industrial gain will come out of it.As I stated before, there is plenty of oil reaching us via the St-Lawrence, maybe as much as a hundred ships a year.What we are faced with is a long term consequence of the battles for pipelines : trains as the ever growing means of moving oil.At some point there will be a wreck, a spill or a tanker run aground, then the debate will get nasty.Will we be ready for this when it happens?If and when the pipelines come, close to 1,2 million barrels of heavy oil will flow in jugulars around the city.In the meantime, as a society, we continue to consume an average of 56 million liters of refined oil each and every day.This is not part of the solution to less oil.To be coherent, our own use has to go down, our contribution to the constant growth of oil demand has to lessen.In a world with less oil, maybe the need for more oil transfer facilities will make it easier to oppose high risk transport across the continent of the most polluting oil on the planet.On the 22nd of July, the United Nations passed a resolution that would begin an investigaation into human rights violations in Gaza unleashed by Israel’s military assault in its newest “Protective Edge” operation.To date 1,370 Palestinians have been killed and over 5,000 wounded, while 32 Israeli soldiers, two Israeli civilians, and a Thai worker in Israel have died.The United States is the only country in the world that voted against the resolution, and its support of Israel’s current “collective punishment” recalls a similar massacre by the Israeli army in 2008-09 that sparked the United Nations Fact Finding Mission on the Gaza Conflict, known as the Goldstone Report.Any action the report recommended back then was also vetoed by the United States.Therefore, the current UN resolution will prove fruitless too, however honest or virtuous the people involved in the investigation are, because any UN attempt to make Israel accountable to war crimes will be vetoed probably again by the United States, as it happened to be back in 2009, shortly after Judge Richard Goldstone submitted his report.In April 2009, Goldstone headed a team established by the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) to investigate the war crimes during the Gaza War of 2009 or otherwise known as “Operation Cast Lead.Goldstone is a Jewish Zionist and was born and raised in South Africa, where he came to prominence with his investigations of vicious behaviours of white security forces during the anti-apartheid movement.One investigation of his led him to uncover Nazis war criminals in Argentina, while his international reputation for investigating violence led directly to him being nominated to serve as the first chief prosecutor of the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for the “ethnic cleansing” in the former Yugoslavia and for genocide in Rwanda from August 1994 to September 1996.Goldstone’s report, published in Sept.2009, charged both Israel and Hamas with war crimes that occurred between 27 December 2008 and 18 January 2009 during “Operation Cast Lead”, which killed more than 1,300 Palestinians and 13 Israelis.When the report was submitted to the General Assembly in October of 2009, according to Goldstone, it was initially rejected because many members focused on the report’s condemnation of Israel while ignoring his report’s details about the war crimes committed by Hamas.Goldstone publically renounced this biased position and called upon these UN members to respect the report’s criticism of Hamas as well.Finally, a second resolution on 26 February 2010 was passed that took into consideration the war crimes of Hamas, but still the Americans made it known that none of the 15 Security Council members would take action against Israel, so the report’s rec- ommendations were ignored.One of the most striking descriptions of “collective punishment” induced by Israel in the report is “the attacks on the houses of Ateya and Wa’el al-Samouni, which killed 23 members of the extended al-Samouni family" (Par.706).Paragraphs 706-735 detail the Israeli army’s massacre of this family.In these paragraphs, the reader is taken into the home of the al-Samouni family and is witnesses to Israeli soldiers who open fire inside the room in which all the approximately 20 family members were gathered.“Several were injured, Ahmad, a boy of four, particularly seriously.The soldiers then moved to the next room and set fire to it.The smoke from that room soon started to suffocate the family.A witness speaking to the Mission recalled seeing ‘white stuff [White phosphorous] coming out of the mouth of his 17-month-old nephew and helping him to breathe” (para.709).Even to this day, Netanyahu’s government has not been held accountable for this massacre.It is true that in October of that year, Netanyahu stated publically that he would assemble a team that would execute an internal review, but he also made it clear (The Jerusalem Post 25 October 2009) that “the team would not question soldiers and officers” involved in any of the killings that took place.A year after the massacre (Jan.2011) Democracy Now’s Angele Comet visited the al-Samouni family and reported that the Samounis remained in dire poverty and living in make-shift houses, and yet even worse, no one from the Israeli government had ever contacted them.Although Judge Goldstone admitted in an interview that Israel has every right to defend itself from any enemy, he also argued that Israel does not have the right to collectively punish innocent people from Gaza.Hence, collective punishment is what Israel is executing currently, especially when the ratios involved are considered.In the “Cast Lead” operation there were 1,300 Palestinians and 13 Israelis killed.In the current "Protective Edge” operation, the figures, as of this writing, stand at 1,370 Palestinians to 35 Israelis killed; these ratios are evidence of Goldstone’s notion of collective punishment.Therefore, any UN resolution adopted that falls short of stopping Israel from killing more people in Gaza is just another political diversion to prevent the international community from taking up its rightful responsibility in resolving the conflict: collective punishment demands concrete collective security from the UN.Otherwise, Israel is, as the topos goes, like those who do not learn from history and therefore are fated to repeat it.Gib Mchmis is the founder of InExik Publications, which has re-published Paul Goodman’s Moral Ambiguity of America, with an Introduction by him, and Sir Leonard

It was a surreal moment when Prince and her Canadian teammates walked through the tunnel and onto the field at the National Soccer Stadium - or BMO Field - on Tuesday, in Canada’s opening game of the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup, a 1-0 loss to Ghana.It was the same tournament back in 2002 that launched the international careers of the likes of Lang and Christine Sinclair, who would go on to become household names in Canada.Lang scored three goals in six games as a 15-year-old, while Sinclair would win both the golden ball as MVP and the golden boot as top goalscorer.Canada made it all the way to the final, where it lost to the U.S.in front of a crowd of 37,194 in Edmonton’s Commonwealth Stadium.While this year’s team would love to repeat the success of 2002, the Canadians are realistic.“We knew that getting to a quarterfinal, winning a quarter-final, was a realistic objective for us, and anything more would be too ambitious based on how the program has done over the last 12 years,” said coach Andrew Olivieri.“Winning a quarter-final is still our objective, and then after that, we’ll enjoy (each game) and gain from the experience.” Canada faces Finland on Friday in Toronto and then North Korea on Tuesday in Montreal, and need to win both to avoid an early exit.North Korea edged Finland 2-1 in the other Group A game on Tuesday.Canada hasn’t played either team, so Olivieri said it’s tough to gauge how well his team stacks up against them.“Unless you play these teams at the youth level, it’s very difficult to compare,” said Olivieri, who was a goalkeeper for Canada’s men’s team and the Montreal Impact.“We know that North Korea at the youth level are one of the best countries in the world.And Finland, any team that gets of Europe are going to be a quality side, and we just feel that those two matches are matches that we can win.“But now it’s clear.We know we have to win both.That makes our jobs simpler.” CANADASOCCF.R Nichelle Prince — —:- Prince injected some energy into the Canadian offence when she came into Tuesday’s game as a second-half substitute.She had one of Canada’s best scoring chances in the loss, beating two defenders to get a shot off.The 19-year-old from Ajax, Ont., was a two-sport athlete in high school, running track and playing soccer.She’s al- ready shone in her young college career, starting in all but one of her games in her freshman season with the Ohio State Buckeyes.She led the Buckeyes with 13 goals.Prince and Olivieri said the Canadians struggled with some nerves in the early going Tuesday, playing in front of almost 15,000 fans at BMO Field, normally home to Major League Soccer’s Toronto FC.But neither is worried that they’ll face the same problem on Friday.“Absolutely (we’re over that)," Olivieri said.“You saw it in the first game.The first half to the second was completely different.We talk about growing through the tournament, well the girls grew through the game, and that was fantastic to see.” Prince had numerous friends and family members in the stands on Tuesday night and expects the same Friday.“My parents bought tickets for about a thousand people in my family,” she said - noting the actual number was about 30.The Canadians need to finish top two in Group A to advance to the quarter-finals.The Group A winner will play its quarter-final in Toronto, while second place in the group will head to Edmonton for the quarters.The tournament semifinals are in Montreal and Moncton, N.B., while Montreal hosts the gold-medal game.Wozniacki routs Rogers, Sharapova eliminated at women’s Rogers Cup The Canadian Press Montreal Carla Suarez Navarro advanced to the quarterfinals with a 6-2, 4-6, 6-2 upset of fourth-seeded Maria Sharapova in a match interrupted twice by rain at the US$2.44 million women's Rogers Cup on Thursday.Suarez Navarro, ranked 16th in the world, returned from the second delay to break Sharapova's service and then staved off a break point in the next game thanks to a lucky net cord.She broke again in the final game.Sharapova, just getting started on the hardcourt season, had struggled to a three-set win in her opening match Wednesday against Carbine Mugu-ruza.The 25-year-old Suarez Navarro won her first WTA tournament this year at the Portugal Open in May.Earlier, Caroline Wozniacki routed Shelby Rogers 6-1, 6-0 to continue her run of one-sided victories.The 11th seed from Denmark, coming off a victory in Istanbul,'has dropped only six games in three matches en route to the quarter-finals.“I felt really comfortable and confident,” said Wozniak.“I served and returned well.” “She's a tough player.She has some big shots.I was just able to neutralize them and play my game.” She will play the winner of a match Thursday evening between Serena Williams and Lucie Safarova.Suarez Navarro plays the winner between Venus Williams and Angélique Kerber.Rogers reached the third round with an upset of local favourite Eugenie Bouchard on Tuesday.Hockey series concludes on Saturday Record Staff Sherbrooke Tlhe international exhibition hockey series between Canada, Russia and Sweden’s national junior hockey teams concludes at the Sports Palace in Sherbrooke on Saturday night.Saturday’s game will see the Russians, playing their third game in four nights, taking on Team Sweden.Russia lost the first game of the series, on Wednesday night, to Canada by a score of 5-2.The second game was played on Thursday night.Results were not available by press time.Tickets for the game are $15 and are available at the Sports Palace box office./OOi",x ( t/CfUVS aterviiie Golf Club 600 Compton St.East Waterville 819 837-2966 40% off clothing in Boutique TUMOR PROMOTION! 1/2 PRICE AT ALL TIMES SUNDAY P.M.FREE Great game conditions, an enchanting site that will charm you Page 16 Friday, August 8, 2014 I > < i nevvsroom@sherbrookerecord.com The Record Nuts to those who say that nuts are bad!

Nuts contain very little carbohydrate.Fats of all types are better at satisfying your appetite than carbs.Unlike chips and other high-carbohydrate snacks, nuts don’t leave you hungry right away.As a result, you’re less likely to overeat.Even though nuts are high in calories, people who eat them more frequently are less likely to gain weight or be obese.How can that be?Weight loss is about eating fewer calories (and increasing physical activity).So, if nuts make you feel full, perhaps you’ll eat less overall.Nuts seem to protect against heart disease as well.Switching to a nut-filled diet tends to improve cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure and reduce inflammation.These changes may translate into real benefits: In observational studies, people who eat more nuts have lower rates of heart disease.Nuts may help with diabetes, too.Normally, blood sugar spikes after we eat.Those post-meal spikes contribute to diabetes in people vulnerable to getting it, and these spikes must be controlled in people who already have diabetes.Nuts don’t cause blood sugar to spike.What’s more, nuts can blunt the effects of carbohydrates on blood sugar.There are lots of ways to incorporate nuts into your diet.Add almonds or walnuts to your cereal or low-fat yogurt at breakfast.Toss them into a pasta dish, or use finely chopped nuts in place of breadcrumbs as a coating for chicken or fish.My favorite way?Enjoying a small handful of nuts as an afternoon snack.And among them must be almonds — in my opinion, the most delicious nuts of all.(Dr.Komaroff is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.To send questions, go to AskDoctorK.com, or write: Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.)

You probably have a lot of this stuff around the house.We’re talking rubber bands, bungee cords, bookends and even those old paint chips you’ve squirreled away from your last do-it-yourself project.“Most people already have everything they need to organize a closet.It’s just a matter of knowing how to make it work for you in a new way,” says John Trosko, owner of OrganizingLA, which is based in Beverly Hills, California.ShopSmart asked Trosko and other organizing pros for their cheapest storage tricks.FREE OR SUPER-CHEAP — Hang a corkboard in or near your closet to display your jewelry for easy access.Use decorative pushpins to dress it up.You can find dozens of cute choices at etsy.com.— Stash rolled-up belts, tights and scarves in mason jars.Group the containers in a single color — or all clear — for a unifying effect.— Use the dividers in a plastic fishing tackle box for your rings and earrings.Keep the lid attached if you want to grab it and go when you travel, or ditch the lid and just keep the opened box on a shelf.— Repurpose that six-bottle wine box.It makes a great shoe cubby for flats, flip-flops and athletic footwear.— Turn curtain rods into extra shelving.Use two tension rods to create a shelf above the clothes rod to hold bins and boxes.Or place the rods between closet walls near the floor to keep shoes in order.Stagger for heels, or place level for flats.— Keep a tangle of belts rolled up neatly on an unused serving tray.Place it on a closet shelf or under a bed.You can easily pull out the tray like a drawer.— Use bookends to organize handbags so that they stand upright on a closet shelf.— Turn an old towel rack into a storage unit.Hang it on a closet wall, then slip on large S-hooks (from the hardware store) to hold purses or small S-hooks for bracelets and necklaces.You can also hang small baskets from the bar to hold flats and flip-flops.— Use those old paint chip samples from the hardware store to label storage boxes.You can write on them with chalk — they’re erasable! — To shrink a bulky item (think a puffy down vest or jacket) for short-term seasonal storage, roll it up tightly and secure with thick rubber bands to keep it from expanding.— Secure a bunch of small bungee cords vertically between wire shelves to contain big, bulky bedspreads and quilts.That will keep them from slipping off the shelf.$25 OR LESS ShopSmart also recommends these low-cost ideas: — Use thin, grippy flocked hangers to free up closet space and to make getting dressed in the morning easier.Buy them in different colors to hang clothes in categories — such as green for jackets and blue for blouses.When you first hang your clothes, turn all of the hangers backward.Then when you put stuff back, turn the hangers the right way so that they face out instead of in.At the end of the season, you can clearly see what you haven’t worn, which makes it easier to purge.— Another way to keep folded-up clothes neat and accessible: Pile them into labeled bins.Planning a summer vacation?You can use the bins to fold and stack clothes that you want to take on your trip.— Use acrylic shelf dividers to stack T-shirts, jeans and sweaters.They can also prop small handbags upright, and they don’t add visual clutter.— Double your closet’s hanging space with a rod expander.No tools are required-just hang and adjust it.Datebook FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 2014 Today is the 220th day of 2014 and the 49th day of summer.TODAY’S HISTORY: In 1945, President Harry S.Truman signed the United Nations charter, making the United States the first nation to join the organization.In 1963,15 thieves stole close to 2.6 million pounds from a mail train in Britain’s “Great Train Robbery.” In 1974, President Richard Nixon announced on national television that he would resign the presidency at noon the following day.In 1990, Iraq announced its “unification” with Kuwait, days after its military forces invaded and took over the country.TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS: Marjorie Rawlings (1896-1953), novelist/Pulitzer winner;

Page 18 Friday, August 8, 2014 newsroom@sherbrookerecord.eom The Record Once, the biological father brought him home so sick that he missed a week of school FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 2014 Dear Annie: My daughter was recently ordered by the court to have her 5-year-old son visit his biological father and grandparents every other weekend.They live 200 miles away.The boy has always lived with his mother, because the biological father felt he was not ready to be a dad and deserted them.He and his parents cut off contact for five years, and now they have decided they want to spend time with the boy.Here’s the disturbing part.When at their house, my grandson is not permitted to eat at the family table.He eats at a small table in the corner.He’s only permitted to eat or drink at certain times, he cannot phone his mother when he wants, he sleeps in a room in the basement, he must call the grandparents by specific names or they won’t speak to him, and most recently, he came home with so many mosquito bites that he required medical attention.Once, the biological father brought him home so sick that he missed a week of school.Over the summer, his biological father tried to teach Annie’s Mailbox him to use the lawn mower, but the child refused because his mother told him (rightfully) that it is too dangerous and he is too little.As a result, he was sent to his room in the basement.My gut tells me they are trying to injure the child, and I have serious doubts about their sincerity in wanting a relationship.My daughter’s lawyer has been contacted, but is there anything we can do in the interim to protect the boy from such horrible abuse?— Worried Grandma Dear Worried: Based on your information, we’re not certain this qualifies as “horrible abuse.” It seems more like neglect combined with incompetent parenting skills.The biological father and his parents have no clue how to properly treat or raise a 5-year-old boy.The lawyer should go to the judge immediately with whatever documentation he has and ask for supervised visitation, and possibly mandate that the biological father take parenting classes.If you believe the boy is truly being abused, contact the National Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-422-4453.Dear Annie: "California" asked about the gifts for a young man entering boot camp.Unless they do it differently now, you can't just change your mind.You sign a contract.Leaving would be "going AWOL," and they will come looking for you.- Been There Dear Been: Actually, this is not so.You can change your mind about enlisting, as long as you go through the proper procedures to do so.Dear Annie: Your response to "Iowa" was a little short of information.She questioned why toilet paper dispensers were so low.According to the Americans with Disabilities Act, they are required to be at that height.Requirements also include heights for side and rear grab bars, as well as minimum stall sizes and clearances.Did you know that a 5-foot circle is required as a clear dim within a handicapped stall?There is more, but you get the point.- Christian in Aptos Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.Joint Quebec Past Officers hosted Annual Joint Odd Fellow/Rebekah Banquet W «¦’ # 11 % ’ m Lynn and Roger Jones after getting medals, presented by Sovereign Warden Dtinny Woods.Friday, May 23 was a very special evening, not only for the several guests from Canada and the USA, but also for those receiving special recognition and medals.Lynn Jones received a medallion for her special efforts as District Deputy Grand Master #10, and for her devotion to the Order.Also being congratu- Wedding Announcement Ë I à a Bell - Grieve L-R SGW Danny Woods with Grand Secretary Wilhelm Loken;
