St-Francis met with Lennoxville borough President Claude Charron recently to present a petition, signed by 82 residents, regarding cars creating a blind spot for drivers exiting the manor parking lot.\u201cAlmost anytime of day, there are two or three cars parked in the bus stop,\u201d commented Ronald Olson, a member of the \u2018Committee for Better Living\u2019 at the manor, which circulated the petition.\u201cYou can\u2019t see left.If someone is on the other side, you can\u2019t see right,\u201d Olson added.The parking entrance/exit of the manor is on Queen Street in between Rima Restaurant and the L2D Barber Shop.Just before the manor parking lot entrance is a stop for the number 2 bus.According to Olson, the no parking signs to keep cars from parking in the space reserved for the bus stop are insufficient, resulting in cars parking there on a regular basis.\u201cThe no parking sign is up against the building,\u201d Olson said.\u201cPeople park there all the

holding a launch for a new initiative called Le Sentier de la parole/Pathway of words, on Thursday April 11, starting at 8 p.m.in Centennial Theatre.Inspired by the \u201cSentier poétique\u201d or poetic trail in Saint-Venant-de- Paquette, the idea for a new trail at Champlain began as a new way of engaging students with their French-Lan- guage education and has evolved into also being a way of helping the school to connect with indigenous artists and communities across the province.\u201cIt\u2019s about about beauty and art,and indigenous heritage and culture, \u201csaid Annick Corbeil, Champlain Lennoxville\u2019s Dean of Student Services.\u201cWe have so much to learn about.\u201d Corbeil explained that the path, which will be open starting next fall, will start outside the rear of

d\u2019aide aux Néo-Canadi- ens (SANC) will be celebrating its 65th anniversary this year, marking several thousands of newcomers who have benefited from the organization\u2019s work since 1954.For the last 48 years, SANC has been organizing a Buffet Interculturel, which allows attendees to taste authentic international dishes, discover customs from other cultures, and to support projects that directly impact new Canadians.On Saturday, May 4, beginning at 6:15 p.m.at the Cégep de Sherbrooke, 56 cooks from 28 different countries will offer meals typical to their culture.Every year, a different area of the world is chosen to highlight through various activities.To present the heritage of sub-Saharan Africa, this year\u2019s selected region, there will be music, traditional dancing, kiosks, a concert by Naneth, a singer travelling from Gabon especially for the Buffet, and artwork from Cameroun, the Ivory Coast, Gabon, Burkina Faso, Guinea, Senegal, and Niger.Attendees will be able to choose between seven combinations of four countries for their food choices.Countries include Colombia, Iraq, Mexico, Senegal, Germany, Syria, Peru, Russia, the Philippines, Turkey, and many more.Members of a same table will be able to share between country selections to ensure a wide variety of international dishes.The 2019 edition of the Buffet Inter- culturel aims to build bridges between immigrant workers and local businesses, in partnership with the Sherbrooke Chamber of Commerce.SANC helps facilitate the integration of workers in the work force and maintain employment.So far, more than a dozen local employers and over 250 employees have benefited from SANC\u2019s personalized services, which are funded by the profits generated from the Buffet Interculturel.Those services range from informing and supporting administrators through the hiring process to educating the personnel on all aspects of intercultural communication.More than 900 newcomers benefit from the SANC\u2019s personalised assistance and support every year, ranging from the search for housing, for employment, and the contribution to their socio-eco- nomic integration.\u201cThe Buffet is really an opportunity to talk and have meaningful connections with our newly arrived Canadians,\u201d said Denisa Olimid, director of business development and communications with SANC.\u201cWe invite everyone to come down to the Cégep on May 4 to enjoy delicious food, but also to explore the world around them, meet new people, and hear the stories of these people, who are all equally fascinating and open.\u201d Over 70 per cent of the tickets had already been sold at the time of the ticket sale\u2019s official launch, on Tuesday, April 2.Tickets are on sale now for $65 at sanc- sherbrooke.ca or by phone, from Monday to Friday from 9 a.m.to 4 p.m., at (819) 566-5373.EMILIE HACKETT The Service d\u2019aide aux Néo-Canadiens\u2019 Buffet Interculturel will be made possible thanks to a large group of employees, volunteers, and sponsors, including Nicole Robitaille, Denisa Olimid, Louise Bourgault, Julien Lachance, and Mercedes Orellana. CONT\u2019D FROM PAGE 1 indigenous poets on a series of plaques interspersed with trees and plants and grounded by a new gazebo.The project follows in the footsteps of the sentier poétique in Saint-Venant-de-Paquette, not far from Coati- cook, which celebrates Quebecois poetry in the context of natural surroundings.\u201cWhat they\u2019ve done in Saint-Venant is just beautiful because it\u2019s so integrated in nature,\u201d Corbeil said.\u201cWe\u2019re going to very much do it in that spirit as well.\u201d Corbeil explained that she and Campus Director Nancy Beattie visited the path in Saint-Venant-de-Pa- quette while exploring ways to take advantage of funding the college has received through a program called \u201cExcellence en enseignement superieure.\u201d The goal, according to the dean, was to come up with a new and original way to get students excited about learning French that could be long lasting and built upon year after year.\u201cThe place is close by but it feels remote,\u201d Corbeil said, sharing that she and Beattie were very impressed with the location and immediately set out to form a partnership.It was in conversation about how to choose the texts to feature on the new path that the idea arose to also make the project about indigenous artists.\u201cWe are on Abenaki territory and our college is home to over 30 indigenous students,\u201d the Dean noted.\u201cWe want them to feel that this is home, and that they are seen.\u201d In addition to featuring the work of indigenous poets, the college has also turned to students of Champlain and Bishop\u2019s from indigenous communities as well as students from adult education centers in Gesgapegiaq, Kahnawake, Listiguj, Sept-Îles, and Uashatmak Mani-utenam to help select the texts that will eventually be found along the path.On the night of the 11th, the college will host special guests Alanis O\u2019Bomsawin,Richard Séguin, and David Goudreault, as well as Moe Clark, Beatrice Deer, Jean Désy, Andrée Lévesque-Sioui, Louis-Karl Picard-Sioui, Sylvain Rivard, Rodney Saint-Éloi, Christine Sioui- Wawanoloath, Jean Sioui, and Florent Vollant for an evening of shared stories, song, poetry and student projects to mark the official start of this initiative.\u201cWe felt we had to tell the world that this is going on,\u201d said Corbeil, sharing that she believes the path will be unique in Quebec.\u201cWe are building bridges between indigenous and non-indigenous communities.We hope that the conversations that are sparked that evening and around that evening will continue to support this project in the future.\u201d As the pathway project has been funded through an initiative for French-language instruction, the launch event will take place in French, but Corbeil said that the actual pathway, when it is finished next fall, will feature the texts in French, English, and the indigenous language of its writer.She also pointed out that since the funding envelope being used is recurrent, the school will be able to build on the path in years to come and expand its scope.\u201cBishop\u2019s is on board for us to eventually extend it to other parts of campus,\u201d she shared, adding, \u201cWe have quite a long term vision for this, but we\u2019re starting here.\u201d Those seeking more information about the official opening event can call the Centennial Theater box office at 819-822-9692.Wednesday , April 3, 2019 Page 3 \u201cFamilies have meals together,\u201d he said, \u201cand we model everything we do here around family style living.\u201d LOCAL NEWS The

triggering false alarms Record Staff Triggering a fire alarm in a public place without good reason can have significant consequences for the offender, warned the Memphremagog Police( RPM) following an event around midnight on Saturday.Two women set off the fire alarm at Café Saint-Michel in downtown Magog and fled when they left the washroom, causing the Fire Department to respond.An offense of that nature can result in charges under section 437 of the Criminal Code for setting a false alarm and face a two-year prison sentence.The two women's actions were captured by surveillance cameras, but they cannot be formally identified.When an alert is triggered, emergency crews quickly go to the scene.People in the facility are likely to evacuate quickly and there could be injuries, putting people's lives in danger.GORDON LAMBIE The new \"Sentier de la parole\" at Champlain college will be built in the area around this gazebo Pathway of words BCS looks to the future By Gordon Lambie There are some big changes in the works at Bishop\u2019s College School over the next few years, aimed at reshaping the campus and defining the student experience.Tyler Lewis, BCS\u2019 Head of School, described the work in three stages that are planned to roll out one after the other.Right now, on top of a space previously occupied by tennis courts, the school is building a new 24,000 square foot residence.\u201cWe believe it will be the nicest residence in Canada,\u201d Lewis said, explaining that the \u201cMitchell Family House,\u201d as the new building is called, will be a \u201chybrid\u201d residence.\u201cNot only is it a residence for over 36 students and three faculty homes, but it will also have academic space.\u201d The Head of School pointed out that the traditional model of boarding school leaves an establishment with a number of buildings that, while useful for housing students, end up sitting empty all day.By mixing academic and residential space, the new building will be a hub of activity throughout the day.Built around a central living room, the facility will include student housing but also a space for hosting scholars in residence such as artists, writers, athletes, or researchers.These guests will be able to carry out their studies or work in a new multipurpose academic space, while also engaging in and helping to enrich student life.While this first stage of work will mainly impact the school community, stage two has a wider reach.\u201cThis time next year we\u2019ll be breaking ground on Moulton Hill Road,\u201d Lewis said, reminding The Record of the school\u2019s intent to divert Moulton Hill road so that it joins up with Saint Francis Street around the far side of the Malvern Cemetery.\u201cThat will really make our campus safer,\u201d the Head said, calling the current configuration of the road \u201ca nightmare\u201d \u201cWe\u2019ve had students get hit by cars out there, we\u2019ve had drunk drivers run into telephone poles and trees on the front lawn of your residences where kids are living,\u201d he remarked.\u201cIt\u2019s the biggest speed trap in Sherbrooke bisecting a campus with 300 plus people constantly moving around on it.\u201d Diverting the road further west, Lewis said, will allow for the creation of a continuous 5km running route on the campus and also, hopefully, cut down on some of the current speeding issues on Moulton Hill.\u201cSo far the response has been really positive,\u201d he added, explaining that the project is currently in the process of acquiring the proper permits.Looking beyond that second step, the Head said that the next objective is expansions to the main school buildings through the addition of another floor to the Molson building to create a \u201cLearning Commons\u201d similar to what was done at Bishop\u2019s University, as well as an expansion to the dining room and kitchen facilities to allow the whole school to eat together at once.\u201cFamilies have meals together,\u201d he said, \u201cand we model everything we do here around family style living.\u201d As a final touch, the central campus area will be landscaped in a unified style to help give the old and new spaces a connected feeling.Lewis said that the work as a whole is being paid for through a $25 million capital campaign that, so far, has reached about half of its goal.More information on the projects BCS is planning for the future will be available during the school\u2019s open house, which is planned for this coming Saturday from 9am to noon. Page 4 Wednesday , April 3, 2019 newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com The Record The chain and where we fit in: -An animal is acquired somewhere.-People who acquired animal do not want or cannot have anymore.-Animal is brought to a contracted municipal pound, shelter, SPA or SPCA, or God forbid brought to a vet to be eu- thanized for unrespectable reasons.-Animal is found stray and not claimed in the holding period (all are different) or animal is seized by animal control officers.-Animal must then be deemed adoptable; behaviour, health.*some animal control organizations choose to euthanize an unadoptable animal immediately within the initial few days of evaluation, but some do not and ask for rescue assistance.-When these places are full with nowhere to keep the animal and no resources available for the animal, the animal faces euthanasia.-When an animal is at a place too long rescues are also hoped for to free up space.-Two organizations (OLC and PP) seek out all animals in these animal control facilities and network with rescues across Canada to see if unadoptable (for numerous reasons; lack of space, too long not adopted, sick, scared, needs one-on-one attention) animals can be transferred out before they must be eu- thanized or for the animal's best interests.-Numerous vets have begun also offering rescue assistance to animal owners on place to euthanize an animal who can be helped.THAT'S WHERE WE COME IN.When we have place and resources available, we network with the organizations who are aware of all of the animals who must get rescue help as their last chance immediately.Vets in the area will contact us when an animal is brought for euthanasia for reasons that are against their morals (peed on the floor, needs a routine surgery, growled at the kids.) and the owners have legally forfeited their ownership.Once I have sent word to help (how many animals I can) then OLC and PP coordinate with a volunteer group of drivers called Freedom Drivers who work to find drivers to get the animals from where they are, to us.Sometimes great distances.We see ourselves as our animals' last chance at finding what they ALL deserve from the beginning, a loving home, and we TAKE IT VERY SERIOUSLY! ONCE WITH US -They are home.As home as they are going to be before hoping to find a REAL home.One they should have been given in the beginning.-It is not rushed.We take our time to get to know them, help them build their confidence and trust again.Show them they are loved.-They are given all the vet care they need.More often than not, expensive vet intervention is required, which is on top of the basic vet attention (fixing, shots, deworming.).-It takes as long as it takes and sometimes it can be years, but it is never rushed.-Not only do we hope to find new loving homes for our faces we help, but we also maintain a legal contract that states the animals must always come back to us if they can no longer stay in their adoptive home.We don't save them to take a chance that they are not loved and safe in the future.This is how it works and this is who we are and what we do.We work as a family each and every day to offer this last chance to as many animals as we can help.HOW DO WE DO IT?YOUR SUPPORT! We need income to pay for the $2,000(average) monthly vet bills and the $2,400 (average) monthly food and necessities bill.To do that, we hold fundraisers (our monthly auctions) and our store (after its bills are paid to stay open the REST goes towards paying for what the animals need each month).So, these are the steps an animal goes through before becoming part of our pack.Each day, we work hard to be able to help more and we couldn't do it without the assistance of:1-The animal control organizations who agree to seek rescue assistance before euthanasia.Not all do.2-OLC AND PP who seek out all the animals facing euthanasia and providing their stories to me (and other recognized rescues across Canada).3-Volunteer drivers (called Freedom Drivers) who get the animals to me (some who come long distances).4-My vets who provide me with knowledge and assistance under any situation(usually emergency) faced.5-My team who helps me care for all our animals we care a great deal about.6-YOU GUYS who support all our animals by using the store for your pet needs and participating in our auctions.We are NOT a shelter and take in animals that owners want to surrender.We are there after the shelters cannot help any more.We are NOT government funded and have no contracts with any municipalities.Meaning, we do what we do to help as many as we can and have no contractual obligations to do so.We pay yearly to have a permit from the government that hangs proudly on our wall that gives us the right to help these animals.WE HELP THE FACES THAT HAVE NOONE LEFT TO HELP THEM and it is a responsibility we take on with all our hearts.\"One life at a time\" was our motto when we first started 8 years ago and it REMAINS TODAY!

in this part of the world traditional music never went away,\u201d shares the band.The Ken Jones Respite Fundraiser will be the band\u2019s first performance in Man- sonville and they are looking forward to it and are proud to be a part of the evening to support a great cause.Tickets are on sale now, $25.00 for supper and the dance (supper at 5:00pm) and for dance only at 7:30pm the tickets are $15.00 per person.The supper is being catered by Shannon Derby and will include: stew, salad, bread and dessert.For tickets call 450-292-3114.Mable Hastings The Scoop COURTESY (Left to right) Ronnie Comeau, Larry Comeau & Tyler Sutton man arrested following allegations of sexual assault Record Staff Sûreté du Québec investigators arrested a resident of Sutton on March 27 as part of a sexual assault investigation.Suspect Baris Ugurlu, 45, appeared on March 28 at the Granby Courthouse.The latter is suspected of having assaulted three women, including a minor who worked at the same business in Sutton as Ugurlu.This arrest was carried out following an investigation initiated in January 2019 after information was provided by the public.Any information on criminal acts or suspicious events can be communicated to the Central Criminal Intelligence of the Sûreté du Québec at 1-800-659-4264.A second Frigo Free Go in Sherbrooke schools By Emilie Hackett Special to the Record The Coopérative de développement économique communautaire (CDEC) has inaugurated a new Frigo Free Go at Mitchell- Montcalm High School, the second in the Commission scolaire de la Région-de-Sherbrooke.First launched in 2016 in downtown Sherbrooke, the community fridge initiative has grown in the Eastern Townships and aims to help reduce food waste in a way that gives back to the community.Students are invited to put surplus food into the fridge to be available to another student rather than throw it in the trash.This is the sixth Frigo Freego in the Sherbrooke area.EMILIE HACKETT Valérie Beaulieu, Mitchell-Montcalm teacher, Arielle Drissen, development officer with CDEC, Sandrine Tremblay-Benoît, a student who participated in the project, and Amélie Martin-Caya, vice-principal at Mitchell-Montcalm, pose together in front of the new Frigo Free Go in the school\u2019s cafeteria.CONT\u2019D FROM PAGE 1 stop directly in front of the manor entrance to drop off passengers.Olson said 82 of the roughly 110 residents living at the manor signed the petition.Even those that don\u2019t drive are affected, he said.\u201cIt\u2019s hard even for a pedestrian just to cross the street,\u201d he said explaining they need to step out into traffic to be able to see what is coming down the street.\u201cI\u2019m afraid there\u2019s going to be a serious accident out there some day,\u201d Olson commented.The point of the petition was to appeal to the municipality to either restrict parking on that section of the street, or at least put it on the town\u2019s radar so the area is more closely monitored.\u201cAt least give tickets to people,\u201d Olson said, to deter drivers from parking directly in front of the manor.According to Olson, the Committee for Better Living was originally formed at Le Renaissance St-Francis Manor to inform management of issues of concern at the residence.We\u2019re not the enemy here,\u201d insisted Olson.\u201cWe\u2019re here to help.You don\u2019t see these things, we do,\u201d he said.The Record contacted the Société de transport de Sherbrooke to see if the bus stop in question had been a source of complaints for STS drivers or passengers.The paper did not receive a reply by press time.Queen Street parking Follow The Sherbrooke Record sherbrookerecord @recordnewspaper on Facebook and Twitter! By Steve Sider Associate Professor, Faculty of Education, Wilfrid Laurier University Canadians continue to grapple with what it means to be an inclusive society.Despite a general trend to inclusive education in provinces across Canada, policies and services are inconsistent.Inclusive education is quality education that aims at the full participation of all learners with a belief that all students can make valued contributions to classrooms and schools.Recent education announcements by the Ontario government, for example, are emblematic of challenging contexts both for families and school communities.Decisions such as increasing class size, changing the funding model for children with autism and potentially changing the full-day kindergarten framework could dramatically affect students with special education needs in inclusive schools.Reports of escalating classroom violence have drawn widespread media attention, as have accounts that students with special education needs are being asked to stay home from school.In Newfoundland, the Advocate for Children and Youth released a January 2019 report on chronic student absenteeism within the province.The report found that factors such as learning disabilities, mental health issues, behavioural issues and developmental delays contributed to absenteeism.In 2018, Inclusion Alberta reported that 53 per cent of children with disabilities had been secluded or restrained at school.The same year, Inclusion B.C.reported that many students with special education needs are still being negatively affected by inappropriate and outdated teaching practices.Prior to this in British Columbia, two legal cases exemplified how contested and precarious inclusive education is in Canadian schools.In 2016, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled in favour of the B.C.Teachers\u2019 Federation and against the province with regard to limiting class size and composition.In 2012, the Court also affirmed the legal right of students with learning disabilities to receive adequate special education supports in schools in what became known as the Moore case.At the centre of this case was student Jeffrey Moore and his father.As a former elementary and secondary school teacher and school administrator, I am aware of the lived realities of teaching students with special education needs in inclusive classrooms.Many teachers experience having classes with 25 or 30 students, sometimes with combined grades.Such a scenario could include teaching two grades of curricula, plus teaching multiple students with individual education plans, who may require accommodations, support staff and specialized equipment.Leadership and inclusion The realistic challenges inherent in this worthy ideal in pursuit of human dignity and belonging are lived out every day in schools.Students, teachers, support staff and principals are in many ways at the forefront of inclusion in society at large.Yet one area that has been lacking has been an informed understanding of what kinds of support principals need as they provide leadership for inclusive schools.Our research team, made up of members of the Canadian Research Centre on Inclusive Education, recently completed a study on this topic.We collected data from 285 principals and vice-principals about their experiences in inclusive schools \u2014 that means schools practising the full participation of all learners, as defined by the Council of Ministers of Education Canada.We asked principals from British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Newfoundland to consider the ways in which they support students with special education needs in inclusive schools.The participants were from elementary and secondary schools, in both English and French language school systems, in urban and rural areas.After this initial data collection, we interviewed 46 of these participants.We wanted to further examine the types of experiences principals described about leading inclusive schools and what kind of professional learning they felt would be helpful.The results of the study point to some key lessons for school systems across Canada.Three of these lessons include: 1.Invest in the right professional development School systems and professional associations responsible for the preparation of future school principals need to invest in professional development specifically about inclusive education.Professional learning needs to be extended beyond technical aspects related to special education such as legal requirements or staffing needs.One principal said: \u201cI say to staff right at the beginning, if you feel like running away, that\u2019s when you need to run into my office.When you find that you are withdrawing and you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed, that\u2019s when you need to run in, not out.\u201d This principal had fostered a leadership competency that reflected empathy and a skill in supporting the mental health of staff.Professional learning should develop leadership competencies in fostering a healthy school culture, including enhancing communication skills to support students, staff, parents and other caregivers.2.Strong professional relationships matter Principals who developed strong professional relationships with students, parents and caregivers, and teaching and support staff were best equipped to support a wide variety of student needs.One principal commented: \u201cRelationships are the foundation of everything I do as a school administrator.The feeling behind this statement was shared by many of the participants who identified relationships as core to their work in supporting inclusive school environments.Another principal described a conversation with the father of a child with special education needs: \u201cAt the end of the conversation, the dad came around the table and gave me a hug and said \u2018I have never had someone want to include my kid in the school before.\u2019\u201d Principals have complex and competing demands on their time.Those who prioritized spending time interacting with students, engaging with parents and caregivers and supporting staff reported high levels of effectiveness in supporting inclusive schools.3.The demands of the job take a toll Despite being surrounded by people, principals frequently reported that they often work in isolation and without a lot of support.There is a strong indication that the demands of the job, particularly with diverse and pronounced student needs, take a heavy toll on them.Our society has become increasingly aware of the complex mental health needs of students in Canada and there needs to be a recognition of the similar mental health needs of teachers and principals.Further research and knowledge mobilization is needed to build the capacity of principals to effectively lead inclusive schools.Steve Sider receives funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of

for many of us, houseplants can be hard to maintain or keep alive.Though magazine spreads often depict houseplants looking great on top of bookshelves or in guest bedrooms, these typically are less accessible areas in easily forgotten rooms.One tip is to keep your plants in areas that are commonly used and provide easy access to water: bathrooms and the kitchen are good places.The residual steam from a shower can even help water plants.Do Just One Thing WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3, 2019 Dear Annie: My employer is conducting a weight- loss incentive program for the month of April.Whoever loses the most weight gets a $250 gift card.I know that obesity is an epidemic in this country.I know losing weight can reduce one\u2019s likelihood of having many chronic health issues.I think it\u2019s great that my employer cares about employee wellness (even if the bosses are partially motivated by insurance rates).However, I\u2019m already a healthy weight, and I\u2019d be underweight if I lost more than a few pounds.I don\u2019t think it\u2019s fair for me to be excluded from this team- building challenge (and, let\u2019s be honest, a potential $250).Do I have any recourse here?\u2014 Weighing My Options Dear Weighing: Wellness isn\u2019t only about weight.The number on the scale is merely one measure of health, and it by no means provides a complete picture.Your employer would be wise to recognize this.Approach human resources or whoever is managing the competition about introducing other markers of well-being, such as blood pressure, into this healthy competition.If modifications can\u2019t be made at this time, contribute ideas for next year\u2019s challenge and try to be grateful for the fact that a healthy weight has come easily to you.Dear Annie: Like \u201cChoking, Not Joking,\u201d I have asthma and a strong reaction to scents.After years of dealing with aromatherapy infusers, Glade PlugIns and strongly scented hand sanitizers, I went to the bosses and had them banned in my public school.I could only imagine all the students with asthma who also had problems.Inhalers didn\u2019t really help, and in my search for answers, with many different doctors, I discovered I also have vocal cord dysfunction.With VCD, when my vocal cords are triggered by scents, cold air, smoke, exercise or stress, they become paralyzed and prevent the opening to my airway from opening.That is why inhalers don\u2019t work for me.Speech therapy, however, has helped, and I feel much better.The learned strategies have let me deal with the attacks that happen.I would also suggest that \u201cChoking, Not Joking\u201d hang a sign in her service department that respectfully requests that care be taken with strong scents.That way, the next time these customers come, they might take care not to have overwhelming scents.At the very least, it would help educate them.\u2014 Choking Is No Joke Dear Choking Is No Joke: Indeed it\u2019s not.I heard from numerous people with whom \u201cChoking, Not Joking\u2019s\u201d letter resonated.I\u2019m printing your letter because it will no doubt encourage some folks to lay off the perfume spritzer and because you include tips that may well help a lot of others struggling in this overly scented world.Thank you for writing.Dear Annie: \u201cChoking, Not Joking\u201d should get himself or herself an air purifier for the office that could sit right next to his or her desk.There are space-saver models.A good air purifier is about $100, and they really do work.I work with a smoker (no, she doesn\u2019t smoke in the office, but the smoke lingers on her clothes), and I\u2019m allergic to cigarette smoke.I just turn on my quiet air purifier and breathe easier.\u2014 Reader in Texas Dear Reader: Thanks for this

the real question is how to cook them.The microwave seemed easy in theory, but we found the rate of cooking difficult to monitor_30 seconds meant the difference between underdone and overdone.Many recipes suggested poaching the chicken in water or broth, but this chicken had a washed-out flavour.Nor was roasting the answer; it caused the outer meat to dry out before the interior was fully cooked.Cooking under both gas and electric broilers, however, worked perfectly.The chicken cooked through in minutes, retaining much of its moisture and flavour.To be authentic, the sesame sauce should be made with an Asian sesame paste (not to be confused with Middle Eastern tahini), but most recipes substitute peanut butter because it\u2019s easier to find.Somewhat surprisingly, tasters preferred chunky peanut butter over smooth, describing its flavour as fresh and more peanutty.We had been making the sauce in a blender and realized that the chunky bits of peanuts were being freshly ground into the sauce, producing a cleaner, stronger flavour.We found the flavours of both fresh garlic and ginger necessary, along with soy sauce, rice vinegar, hot sauce, and brown sugar.We then stumbled on the obvious way to keep the sauce from being too thick or pasty: Thin it out with water.Although the sauce was tasting pretty good, tasters still complained that there was not enough sesame flavour.Tossing the rinsed pasta with toasted sesame oil helped a bit, as did garnishing the noodles with toasted sesame seeds.But tasters were still not satisfied;

Note that West had done well to lead a second heart at trick four, even though he anticipated South\u2019s being out of the suit.If West had played a club, declarer would have won on the board and led a trump.Then East might have played low, allowing declarer to win with his king and play a second round.Or East might have won with his spade ace and tried to cash the heart ace, ticked that West hadn\u2019t followed his suit-preference signal."]
