and in hand a pass towards something else.The alternative is not making it through, and not having that pass, and then limiting your possible futures - possible worlds, possible outcomes.Feeling motivated to succeed through high school can be quite tough.Teachers are great, but they're overloaded and pretty tired too - but many of them really do care, and some of them have even made you guys the biggest focus of their lives.Sometimes they manage to motivate you, but not always.Same goes for all of the other people who work and volunteer in schools - sometimes it's a person you couldn't have predicted, and that other people would never guess, are somehow boosting you to being present and working to succeed.Parents are kind of like teachers - some of them are great supports, but also bogged down by life.Friends can be great influences, and other times they can drag us down a little.Or a lot.This is where we come to where the biggest part of motivation comes from - from YOU.Isn't that just the biggest letdown?! I know, I know, we all want there to be some miracle booster pack, or pep talk, or sudden flood of knowledge, some inexplicable energy source that infuses you with wisdom and BAM! Suddenly you just absolutely know everything you need to know.Here are a few things that can get you through: 1) Breathe.I know, it sounds ridiculous, everyone seems to be talking about it these days too.Breathe?! Really?! Well, yeah.In fact, if you have a ten- dancy to get a little nervous making your way into those exams, three deep breaths will shift you from your sympathetic nervous system to your PARAsympathetic nervous system, and believe it or not, that helps you to access more of what you know.So, if you're feeling overwhelmed, give your old bod and brains a rest with three deep breaths, and come back to them if the feeling returns.2) LOOK AFTER YOURSELF.Yup, just at that moment where you want to resist and stay up late, eating horrible food, or not eating hardly at all, this is the moment when you really, really need to do the opposite.Get rest.Pay attention to how much really works for you, and then focus on getting that.WebMD (online) has a great listing of seven food for teen brains - eggs, greens, Greek yogurt, fish, nuts and seeds, oatmeal, and apples and plums are the foods listed.Water is an essential too - and if you have trouble just drinking it, find a glass bottle, or several, fill them up and put them in the fridge.When it's cold and ready to go, you might be more likely to replenish.3) REWARD YOURSELF.In little ways - tell yourself you're allowed an episode or a movie on Netflix or from your personal collection, or a YouTube video, but maybe time yourself so you don't end up in one of those 'Oops I watched LoLcats until 2:00 a.m.' situations.Save that for a bigger reward, like when the weekend comes, or when exams ARE DONE.You know yourself - what stuff do you just love?Arrange that whatever those things are, they become your studying rewards.The end is in sight.You absolutely deserve to get yourself that pass that lets you level up - and onwards.You have every right to be proud of yourself too.- POST SCRIPT: If you find yourself in a situation where you may have put things off, it's not too late - pick up your socks at any time, and plan for success in the future if it's not quite attainable right now.The hidden scene here, just like at the end of a Marvel movie, is that the failures lead somewhere too, and not always somewhere bad or more challenging, just different.The difference lies in whether you allow yourself to at least try to pass, because the passes are just a little easier to build with.No matter what your current life circumstances are, you can build the future, and it can be a very bright one.So, what Netflix show are we watching after you study?Dishpan Hands Sheil a Quinn CONT\u2019D FROM PAGE 1 said Roy Lapointe, referring to herself and her two sons.\u201cWe\u2019ve been attending the walk for many years because we want to show our children the importance of being proactive with their illness, and of course to help raise funds and awareness about the different research and programs for arthritis.\u201d William and Alexis try their best to remain active despite their arthritis.Although William will not be playing baseball this year after being hospitalized during tryouts, he is now focusing on field hockey, a new sport he is discovering this year.Alexis is now part of the BMX club and meets with friends after school to practice the sport.Their mother is glad that they are keeping busy, because they have had over 15 doctors\u2019 visits just in the month of May.\u201cWe want them to live a happy life despite their illness,\u201d she remarked.Jordan Dumas, affected by ankylosing spondylitis arthritis, attended the walk for the first time this year.\u201cI\u2019m pretty happy, I walked the 5-kilometre circuit today.My arthritis is okay, it\u2019s not discouraging me but it for sure can be annoying sometimes,\u201d said the 12- year-old.\u201cJordan was seven years old when the diagnosis fell.It has almost been six years now.It was a difficult adaptation, and we are still adapting to the illness every day that goes by,\u201d said his father Jean-Luc.Jordan\u2019s strain of the illness is distinguished by the inflammation of his spine and his sacroiliac articulations.According to his father, most of his son\u2019s pain is located in the knees and requires countless pills on a daily basis as well as a weekly injection that Jordan performs himself.\u201cThere are way too many things I take for this to name them all!\u201d joked Jordan.As his arthritis progresses, he will have to go to the doctor every month.However, he remains a very hopeful pre-teen.Jordan has been playing hockey since he was three years old and was accompanied on Sunday by three of his friends and teammates, who helped him raise over $1,400 for the walk.\u201cWe tried many sports.Jordan is very active, and we want him to feel as normal as possible,\u201d his father said.\u201cAnything with a stop and go motion becomes painful for him.We tried tennis, trampoline, and biking, but he would quickly be in pain.\u201d Jordan is currently finishing his first year at Mont Saint-Anne high school, where he plays for their varsity hockey team.Although he had to stop for a few weeks when his knees got inflamed last fall, he kept going.\u201cIt\u2019s really something difficult to deal with,\u201d mentioned Jean-Luc.\u201cWhenever he starts having pain, we have to wonder.Is it just a backache?Is it just bruising?Or is it the arthritis affecting a new spot on his body?\u201d For now, Jordan\u2019s situation is stable.While there is no clear improvement, there is also no decline in his health.Organized by the Canadian Arthritis Society, the event celebrated its tenth anniversary and is now organized in over 35 cities across Canada.The Walk for Arthritis has raised over $11 million since it first started.The funds go towards research and programs, which help raise awareness about this devastating illness and create meaningful support systems.T uesday , June 4 , 2019 Page 3 The

came across this photograph in its archives of the Nanking Café that was once located in Sherbrooke at 2637 King Street West.Founded in 1951 by Mr.Sack Fun Lee, the Chinese restaurant became a significant fixture in the area.In 1958, Mr.Sack Fun Lee passed down the restaurant to his son Jack W.Lee.Born in China in 1929, Jack made his way to Canada in 1952 and started to work in the family business.He took on the role of keeping Nanking Café alive.He also began to make changes to Nanking that would result in the restaurant making a name for itself in the province.In 1979, The Record reported that Nanking was the oldest Chinese family owned restaurant in the province of Quebec.In 1980, the restaurant underwent major renovations and expansions.This resulted in the Nanking Café becoming the largest Chinese food restaurant in the Eastern Townships.The expansion presented Nanking customers with a brand new dining room that could accommodate up to 400 people.Not only a restaurant owner, Jack was an active member in Chinese communities in Quebec and across Canada.In December of 1990, he was named in the Governor General\u2019s Christmas Eve list of appointments to the Order of Canada.Jack Lee decided to close the doors of Nanking in 1994.Despite closing, the restaurant is remembered as a favorite among locals.Do you have any memories of the Nanking Café?If so,

the scene just after her son was shot, gave a declaration to an SQ officer under the presumption that Riley had hurt himself.Wing filed a complaint with the police ethics commission, pointing out that there was no way to know if her statement could have been shared with other officers before the BEI took over the case.The complaint also outlined that she and her husband were denied information at the hospital and were not allowed to see their son until four days after he was killed.\u201cWhereas public confidence in the police has diminished; whereas taxpayers pay millions of dollars to finance investigations of allegations against police officers; we, the undersigned, ask the Government of Québec to ensure: that all patrol cars in Quebec are equipped with a GPS, a dash cam, and a fixed camera which films the interior of the vehicle; that all patrol officers are required to wear a body cam,\u201d the petition reads.\u201cI think it will give the BEI the evidence they need,\u201d Wing said, explaining that investigations are highly dependent on police testimony.\u201cThe public has no access to the investigation,\u201d Wing added.\u201cWe don\u2019t know what information was given.\u201d An access to information document requested from the BEI by Wing revealed that the SQ officer who shot Riley refused to answer questions from BEI investigators immediately following the shooting.\u201cThis would take questions away,\u201d Wing said, referring to police cameras.\u201cThey could use it as a tool for learning,\u201d commented Wing, rather than assume the negative.\u201cThey might even prove police are very professional.\u201d MNA Gregory Kelley will present the petition on Wing\u2019s behalf at the National Assembly next week.According to Wing, whether there is one signature or a million, it will be tabled at the National Assembly and the members will have to at the very least have a conversation about it that will go public record.By press time, the electronic version of the petition had collected 590 signatures.Paper copies are also in circulation in the Brome Lake Area, Wing said.The petition can be found on the National Assemble

The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com T uesday , June 4 , 2019 Page 5 By Gordon Lambie Just over a month before his 101st birthday, Sawyerville\u2019s legendary Doctor Curtis Lowry has died.Having served the community in which he was born for 55 years before his retirement in 2003, Dr.Lowry left an indelible mark on all those who knew him.\u201cHe was an icon,\u201d said Doug Bowker, Executive Director of Grace Village and a former patient of Dr Lowry\u2019s.\u201cHe was my family doctor from the time I was born right up until I left home at the age of 18, and he continued after that.\u201d Bowker theorized that one could talk to almost anyone in Sawyerville or the surrounding community and each would have their own story of how the doctor changed their life.As a personal example, the director shared that he was driven back from the hospital by Lowry at three days old in the doctor\u2019s old snowmobile, because the roads had been closed by a terrible snowstorm.\u201cHe made house calls all around the area for decades and decades, long after no other doctor was doing it,\u201d he added.\u201cThe village of Sawyerville really relied on him.\u201d \u201cWe were spoiled,\u201d shared Edie McBurney, whose three children were delivered by Lowry, \u201cyou don\u2019t see doctors like that anymore.\u201d McBurney, who once tried to get Lowry inducted into the Order of Canada, praised the doctor for his willingness to go out of his way to help others, no matter the time.\u201cHe was just good to everybody,\u201d she said.\u201cPeople swore by his stitching because he had stitched up veterans in the war and was really, really efficient,\u201d recalled Ann Rothfels, calling Lowry both devoted and totally dedicated to his community.\u201cPeople would not go to the hospital for stitches; they would go to Dr.Lowry.\u201d In addition to his commitment to house calls, Rothfels said that Lowry\u2019s practice was unusual in other ways.\u201cWhat was really intriguing for me, having come from the city, was that his office was within his home and he did not have a separate office number.it was the family phone number so you never knew quite who you were going to get,\u201d she said, laughing as she recalled starting to explain symptoms over the phone before being told that the doctor was out.\u201cHis death will be very sad for the community,\u201d Rothfels said, adding that the doctor left a particularly important legacy for home birth in the area.\u201cHe was passionate about that and would go to your home in the middle of the night if required in order to do a home birth,\u201d she said.Jeen Kirwen, hailed by many as one of the pioneers of midwifery care in the province of Quebec, called her time working alongside Lowry as \u201ca golden era.\u201d \u201cHe influenced my whole career,\u201d she said.\u201cDr.Lowry was my mentor.He was much more than a teacher and much more than a guide.He inspired me.He embodied everything that I wanted to be in my practice.\u201d Kirwen explained that the support and confidence in her strength and ability that Dr.Lowry showed when circumstances meant that she had to deliver her son in breech position (feet first) at home completely changed her life.\u201cI had no idea that I had that strength inside of me, and that so changed my life and made me want to be a bearer of good news to other women who wanted to experience that,\u201d the retired midwife said.\u201cI wanted women to know that they could experience that in a safe environment with somebody who knows what they are doing to watch over them and make sure that everything is okay.\u201d Operating at a time before midwifery was legal in the province, Kirwen said that Lowry was supportive and prudent in building a kind of partnership with her.\u201cHe said I can\u2019t give you courses, I\u2019m not allowed to do that, but you can watch and learn from me.\u201d She said.\u201cHe showed me how to use my hands as a tool.Even though he had his own training as a doctor and could use forceps at home and everything like that, he went as far as he could supporting the woman.\u201d Both through his own work and the work of those he inspired, it is clear that the Townships would not be same without the work of Curtis Lowry.\u201cHe was pretty much the last of his breed,\u201d Bowker reflected.\u201cHe touched an awful lot of people\u2019s lives.\u201d This photo, courtesy of Doug Bowker at Grace Village, is of the snowmobile that Dr.Curtis Lowry bought to use in his practice while it was still being used as a school bus.\u201cHe was one of a kind\u201d Community mourns the loss of Doctor Curtis Lowry RECORD ARCHIVES Quebec announces $500 million reconstruction of La Fontaine Tunnel By Lia Levesque THE CANADIAN PRESS The federal and Quebec governments have announced a $500-million reconstruction project for Canada's longest highway tunnel _ the Louis-Hip- polyte-La Fontaine Tunnel linking Montreal to its southern suburbs.\u201cWe're bringing Montreal infrastructure into the 21st century,'' said federal Infrastructure Minister Francois- Philippe Champagne, referring also to the new Samuel-de-Champlain Bridge expected to open at the end of the month.Champagne and Quebec's junior transport minister, Chantal Rouleau, announced the funding deal in Montreal on Monday.Work is expected to begin in 2020 and last until 2024.The investment in the 52-year-old tunnel _ one of five links between Montreal and the south shore _ will extend its life span by 40 years.No fewer than 47 million vehicles use the La Fontaine tunnel every year, Champagne said.\u201cIt's the longest highway tunnel in Canada,'' he said.Planned work includes pavement, lighting, vaults, walls, signage and a fire protection system, as well as repaving of the highway between Boucherville and Montreal and necessary infrastructure for public transportation on highways linking to the tunnel.Champagne wouldn't say how the funding would be divided between the governments, so as not to compromise the tendering process set to open soon.He said it was important to announce the project to allow for preparatory work.Rouleau said about 13 per cent of the vehicles that use the tunnel daily are heavy trucks.She said the massive re-construction will cause some obstacles, but the province is planning mitigation measures including parking spots to encourage public transit use and lanes for buses and car pooling.There's also a consideration of a river shuttle between Montreal and its southern suburbs.There will also be an emphasis on communication with residents impacted by the work, Rouleau said.\u201cThe work being announced today _ everyone knew it had to be done,'' Rouleau said. Record Staff In an effort to ease traffic troubles in its downtown core during ongoing revitalization work, the City of Magog has started a shuttle service between the du Moulin parking lot and the parc des Braves.The shuttle will operate in a limited capacity from Thursday to Sunday until the 23 of June, after which a daily summer schedule will come into effect until Labour Day.While in operation, the brightly coloured vehicle will follow its loop once every 20 minutes to help citizens and tourists alike navigate the downtown.In order to ensure that the free shuttle remains free, the city has also set aside 75 parking spaces in the du Moulin lot for shuttle users to park in free of charge.Until June 23, the shuttle will operate Thursday and Friday evenings from 5 p.m.to 9 p.m., Saturdays from noon to 9 p.m., and Sundays from noon to 5 p.m.Once the summer schedule comes into effect, service expands to seven days a week, with shuttles offered Monday to Wednesday from 10 a.m.to 5 p.m.and Thursday and Friday from 10 a.m.to 9 p.m (weekend hours remain the same).Recall that work planned for this week at the corner of Merry and Principale streets will mean the complete closure of the major intersection until the end of the day on Friday, June 7.As a result, anyone wishing to reach the south side of the Magog River will need to detour via Belvedere street.By Kyl Chhatwal On May 20, the anniversary of Quebec\u2019s first referendum on sover- eignty-association passed without much comment.There was a brief retrospective on Ici Radio-Canada Première, where historian Jean-Charles Panneton revisited René Lévesque\u2019s famous remarks in the wake of the defeat of the \u201cOui\u201d side in 1980.To a cheering crowd of supporters in Montreal, an emotional Lévesque said: \u201cSi je vous ai bien compris, vous êtes en train de dire: à la prochaine fois.\u201d I certainly do not agree with Lévesque\u2019s politics, but he did know how to be graceful in defeat.He was a man who wore his feelings openly, and was sincere in a way that is lacking in the modern politician.But it turns out Lévesque was doing more than being gracious 39 years ago.According to Panneton, his nationalist audience that night was full of potentially volatile emotion.PQistes took the defeat of the first referendum hard.The famously verbose referendum question\u2014 a paragraph long\u2014was specifically designed to be \u201ca winning question,\u201d in that it did not ask that a skittish Quebec population choose separation outright, but merely grant the PQ government a mandate to negotiate with the feds.Yet even this strategic hedge on the part of the PQ failed.The defeat of the \u201cOui\u201d side was decisive.Lévesque knew his supporters were on the verge of boiling over, and his statesman-like \u201cà la prochaine fois\u201d was as much concession as an effort to defuse an explosive disillusionment.Speaking of disillusionment\u2026 another nation is presently living through its own separatist angst and psychodrama (of sorts).Almost three years after the stunning Brexit vote of June 23, 2016, the ruling Conservative government in Britain has still been unable to offer its citizens a clear and viable exit strategy from the European Union.The problem has not been between Britain and Europe, but among Britain\u2019s political leaders.There are not enough column inches here to document all the infighting and ineptitude of the past three years.Suffice to say, Prime Minister Theresa May did draft an agreement with the EU, but her own Parliament (and party) rejected it a full three times.Recently, the Conservatives ousted May, and contenders for May\u2019s job have no motivation to be diplomatic or levelheaded any longer.That tack failed with May, and even the public seems hungry for recklessness and brinkmanship.As I write, the UK\u2019s Euro-skeptic \u201cBrexit Party\u201d just finished trouncing the Tories in the European Parliament elections.They campaigned on the muscular but ultimately hollow promise/threat of holding out for a \u201cbetter deal or no deal.\u201d But Britain has no leverage to negotiate a better deal than May\u2019s, and therefore \u201cno deal\u201d is likely what Britain will get.So what does this mean?Well, that the UK will tumble out of the EU without a trade agreement.Hard borders will spring up again (most ominously, between Ireland and Northern Ireland).There could be widespread job losses, particularly in London.Both the UK and EU economies will take a sharp blow, at least in the short term.The Scottish independence movement will be revived.Here in Quebec, we should recognize this grisly spectacle for what it is: a free and relatively painless (for us, anyway) simulation for what Quebec separation could look like.With Brexit, a sovereign nation is attempting to leave an economic and customs union, and already it\u2019s turned ugly.Imagine a province trying to separate from a country! One painfully apparent feature of Brexit has been the way ego and personal ambition have made a very bad situation much, much worse.Consider the present top contender for the Prime Ministership: ex-London mayor Boris Johnson.Here is a man who once zi- plined across a park as a kind of vapid political stunt.In 2016, he turned Brexi- teer almost overnight when he realized the move would boost his profile.His recent posturing\u2014parroting the \u201cbetter deal or no deal\u201d mantra\u2014is more of the same naked careerism.Johnson is no fool and understands his country has a dismal negotiating position vis-à-vis Europe.He\u2019ll say of course that the threat of a no deal is the only leverage the Brits still have.More likely, he doesn\u2019t care one way or the other about leverage.For him it is the public\u2019s anger that matters, because anger builds a following, and a following keeps you elected (see Trump, Donald J.).But a spectacle-driven leader like Johnson is the last thing a nation in crisis needs.For all his failings, at least Lévesque understood that the leader of character must defuse anger, rather than exploit it.EDITORIAL Page 6 T uesday , June 4 , 2019 newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com The Record I certainly do not agree with Lévesque\u2019s politics, but he did know how to be graceful in defeat.6 Mallory, Sherbrooke, Quebec J1M 2E2 FAX: 819-821-3179 E-MAIL: newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com WEBSITE: www.sherbrookerecord.com SHARON MCCULLY PUBLISHER (819) 569-9511 MATTHEW MCCULLY ASSOCIATE EDITOR (819) 569-6345 GORDON LAMBIE ASSOCIATE EDITOR (819) 569-6345 SERGE GAGNON CHIEF PRESSMAN (819) 569-4856 JESSE BRYANT ADVERTISING MANAGER (450) 242-1188 DEPARTMENTS ACCOUNTING (819) 569-9511 ADVERTISING (819) 569-9525 CIRCULATION (819) 569-9528 NEWSROOM (819) 569-6345 KNOWLTON OFFICE 5B VICTORIA STREET, KNOWLTON, QUEBEC, J0E 1V0 TEL: (450) 242-1188 FAX: (450) 243-5155 PRINT SUBSCRIPTIONS For print subscription rates, please call 819-569-9528 or email us at billing@sherbrookerecord.com ON-LINE SUBSCRIPTIONS QUEBEC: 1 YEAR 108.72 5.44 10.85 $ 1 2 5 .0 0 1 MONTH 9.78 0.49 0.98 $ 1 1 .2 5 Rates for out of Quebec and 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 9, 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 Limited Partnership.PM#0040007682 Return undeliverable Canadian addresses to The Record, 6 Mallory Street, Sherbrooke, QC J1M 2E2 Member ABC, CARD, CNA, QCNA RECORD THE Simulated separatism Magog offers downtown shuttle service Local Sports The Raptors won Thursday's series opener 118-109, riding the momentum of four straight victories over Milwaukee in the Eastern Conference final.T uesday , June 4, 2019 Page 7 The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Thompson scores 25, Golden State ties up series against Raptors with 109-104 win By Lori Ewing THE CANADIAN PRESS Klay Thompson had 25 points, while Stephen Curry had 23 to lead the Golden State Warriors to a 109-104 victory over the Raptors on Sunday, sending the best-of-seven NBA Finals to Oakland, Calif., tied up at 1-1.Kawhi Leonard had 34 points and 14 rebounds to lead the Raptors, his 12th 30-point game of these playoffs, while Fred VanVleet had 17.Kyle Lowry had 13 points before picking up his sixth foul and leaving the game with 3:52 to play.Pascal Siakam chipped in with 12 points as Toronto continued its first NBA Finals appearance in its 24-year history.The Raptors led by as many as 12 points in the first half, but were done in by an awful third quarter that saw the Warriors race out to an 18-0 run while fans were still filing back to their seats with their halftime beers.The Raptors turned the ball over five times and missed their first nine shots in the ugly stretch.VanVleet finally ended Golden State's run with a three-pointer with 6:20 remaining in the quarter.Raptors coach Nick Nurse lamented the lack of the offence during the game- turning stretch, as it gave Warriors transition opportunities.\u201cI'm going to have to rewatch that,'' he said.\u201cI'm probably not going to enjoy it very much.'' The Warriors led 88-80 with one quarter to play.Danny Green's three-pointer slashed Golden State's lead to just four points with nine minutes to play, but the Warriors' offence, which had 34 assists on 38 made baskets on the night, was sizzling.Almost nothing was falling for Toronto.An Andrew Bogut basket had Golden State up by 12 with 5:40 to play.The Raptors chipped away and three free throws from Leonard, one of them for a technical called on Curry for tossing the ball up in the air in anger, pulled Toronto to within five points with 1:08 to play.Green drilled a three with 26 seconds to play, making it a two-point game and prompting a roar from the Scotiabank Arena crowd.But a wide open Andre Iguodala replied with a three with 5.9 seconds left to put the Warriors back up by two possessions.Nurse said the Raptors should have fouled before Iguodala's shot.\u201c(Iguodala) has hit a lot of big shots in the Finals before, so he was unfazed,'' Warriors coach Steve Kerr said.Green's three at the buzzer bounced off the rim, ending the game.The referees were an unfortunate sto- ryline of the game, as Lowry, Siakam and Marc Gasol were all in early foul trouble.Raptors coach Nick Nurse had talked before tipoff of the proliferation of postseason whistles.\u201cIt is tricky out there,'' the coach said.\u201cWe have been in some foul trouble in the playoffs a bit with certain guys.It's strange because it doesn't seem like you're ever in foul trouble in the regular season.'' Leonard joined an illustrious group with his scoring output.Other players who've had a dozen 30-point games in a single playoff run: Elgin Baylor, Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, Ha- keem Olajuwon, and Jerry West.Baskets were at a premium in the game's early minutes, the two teams shooting a combined 5-for-19 before the first timeout.The Raptors took a six- point lead on an alley-oop dunk from VanVleet to Siakam, but the Warriors promptly went on a 10-0 run to go up by four.Toronto led 27-26 to start the second.Leonard converted a three-point play to stretch the Raptors' lead to 12 points with just over five minutes to play in the first half.A couple of Curry free throws with four seconds left sliced the Raptors' advantage to 59-54 at halftime.\u201cWe cut the lead to five and could kind of breathe at halftime,'' Kerr said.\u201cI think our guys felt renewed life at that point.'' The Raptors won Thursday's series opener 118-109, riding the momentum of four straight victories over Milwaukee in the Eastern Conference final.Games 3 and 4 are Wednesday and Friday in Oakland.Game 5 is Monday, June 10 in Toronto.\u201cWe're in the same boat they were in coming here, we gotta go out there and get one,'' Nurse said.\u201cThat's all we gotta do _ get one.We can do that.'' The Raptors hope to have OG Anunoby back on the floor soon.The athletic forward, who had an emergency appendectomy the night before the postseason tipped off, was finally activated on Sunday, but Nurse said he had lost a significant amount of weight, and probably wouldn't play until later in the Finals.The Warriors had their own health woes Sunday.Curry appeared ill in the first half and briefly left the bench with the Warriors' medical staff, while Iguo- dala was shaken up late in the first half after backing into Gasol on a hard screen, and Kevon Looney left the game with a left chest contusion.Thompson also left in the fourth after appearing to injure his leg.Sunday's star-studded crowd featured former U.S.president Barack Obama _ who sat in the middle of the lower bowl alongside NBA commissioner Adam Silver, and received a standing ovation plus chants of \u201cM-V-P!'' when he was introduced _ plus former Toronto Blue Jays star Roberto Alomar, golfers Rory McIl- roy and Sergio Garcia, and numerous recording artists including J.Cole, The Weeknd, Shawn Mendes, and, of course, Drake.The Toronto rapper, whose saucy postseason attire has created a buzz the last couple of games, wore a black hoodie Sunday with Macaulay Culkin's famous open-mouthed face from \u201cHome Alone,'' over the word \u201cKEVIN?!?!?!?!'' _ apparently trolling injured Warriors star Kevin Durant.Recording artist Alessia Cara of Brampton, Ont., led the Scotiabank Arena crowd in a rousing performance of \u201cO Canada.'' \u201cAmerican Idol'' winner Fantasia Barrino performed the American Anthem.Kerr, who's never been shy with political statements, wore a T-shirt that said \u201cVote For Our Lives'' to the pre-game press availability, in response to the recent mass shooting in Virginia Beach.Golden State Warriors' Andre Iguodala (9) shoots over Toronto Raptors' Kyle Lowry as Pascal Siakam (43) looks on during Game 2 of basketball\u2019s NBA Finals, Sunday, June 2, 2019, in Toronto.(Gregory Shamus/The Canadian Press via AP, Pool) Page 8 T uesday, June 4, 2019 production@sherbrookerecord.com The Record RATES and DEADLINES: ANNOUNCEMENTS & NOTICES BIRTH NOTICES, CARDS OF THANKS, IN MEMORIAMS, BRIEFLETS: Text only: 40¢ per word.Minimum charge $10.00 ($11.50 taxes included) Discounts: 2 insertions or more: 15% off With photo: additional $18.50.DEADLINE: 11 a.m., day before publication.BIRTHDAY, ANNIVERSARY & GET-WELL WISHES, ENGAGEMENT NOTICES: Text only: $16.00 (includes taxes) With photo: $26.00 ($29.90 taxes included) DEADLINE: 3 days before publication.WEDDING WRITE-UPS: $26.00 ($29.90 taxes included) WITH PHOTO: $36.00 ($41.40 taxes included) Please Note: All of the aforementioned (except death notices) must be submitted typewritten or neatly printed, and must include the signature and daytime telephone number of the contact person.Can be e-mailed to: clas- sad@sherbrookerecord.com - They will not be taken by phone.DEADLINES FOR DEATH NOTICES: For Monday\u2019s paper, call 819-569-4856 between 1 p.m.and 5 p.m.Sunday.For Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday\u2019s edition, call 819-569-4856 or fax 819-569-1187 (please call to confirm transmission) or e-mail: production@sherbrookerecord.com between 9 a.m.and 5 p.m.the day prior to the day of publication.The Record cannot guarantee publication if another Record number is called.Rates: Please call for costs.Death Rose (Tozer) Oakley June 30, 1934 \u2013 Jan.2, 2019 Funeral service for a very loving, kind woman, wife, mother and grandmother, Mrs.Rose (Tozer) Oakley who passed away January 2, 2019 at the age of 84 will take place on Saturday, June 8, 2019 at 11:00 a.m.at the St.Andrew\u2019s Presbyterian Church, Melbourne, Quebec.Visitation will take place at the church from 10:00 a.m.to 11:00 a.m.After which Rose\u2019s remains will be placed in the St.Andrew\u2019s Cemetery.The family would like to thank everyone for their kind thoughts and condolences and many acts of kindness during this time.CASS FUNERAL HOMES 295 Principale S., Richmond QC PHONE: 819-826-2502 FAX: 819-564-4423 www.casshomes.ca ASK THE DOCTORS By Eve Glazier, M.D., and Elizabeth Ko, M.D.Dear Doctor: My wife wants me to quit eating black licorice because she heard it\u2019s bad for you.I think it\u2019s just that she can\u2019t stand the taste of it herself.I told her I was writing this email, and she said I have to include that I\u2019m 42 and on blood pressure meds.Dear Reader: Your wife is remembering a warning about black licorice issued by the Food and Drug Administration in 2017, just a few weeks before Halloween.Considering that Americans now spend upward of $2.7 billion (yes, with a B; and yes, we\u2019re kind of shocked) per year on Halloween candy, the FDA\u2019s timing seems spot on.According to the warning, \u201cIf you\u2019re 40 or older, eating 2 ounces of black licorice a day for at least two weeks could land you in the hospital with an irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia.\u201d To understand why, we need to talk about Glycyrrhiza glabra, the plant used to give licorice candy its distinctive flavor.Commonly referred to as licorice root, Glycyrrhiza glabra is a member of the pea and bean family, and is native to certain areas of Europe, the Middle East and western Asia.Its fleshy roots contain a compound called glycyrrhizin, which is 50 times sweeter than sugar.Licorice root has medicinal properties, and it is a centuries- old treatment for a variety of ailments, including heartburn, stomach upset, ulcers, sore throat and bronchitis.However, one of the side effects of consuming glycyrrhizin is a potentially dangerous drop in the levels of potassium in the body.This means eating too much licorice can lead to a range of symptoms including high blood pressure, leg swelling, exhaustion, lethargy, cramping, abnormal heart rhythms and even congestive heart failure.Research shows that when you stop eating black licorice, potassium levels will usually return to normal on their own.If you\u2019re wondering why your wife wanted you to share your age and health status in your email, it\u2019s because according to the FDA, people over the age of 40 who also have a history of hypertension or heart disease should be particularly careful not to eat too much licorice.Eating as little as 2 ounces \u2014 that\u2019s four small pieces \u2014 of licorice every day for two weeks is enough to land someone in the hospital.Scientists at the National Institutes of Health, who take an even dimmer view of the candy, state that even 1 ounce of licorice per day consumed over the course of several weeks may be \u201cpotentially unsafe.\u201d To avoid problems, black licorice lovers of any age should never eat large amounts of the candy at one time.It\u2019s also important to note that glycyrrhizin, the flavoring compound in licorice root, has the potential to interact with some medications, herbs and dietary supplements.For instance, the NIH warns that black licorice blunts the effects of the blood thinner warfarin, and it interferes with certain blood pressure drugs, steroid drugs and diuretics.If black licorice is a constant in your diet and you regularly take any medications or supplements, it would be wise to check with your doctor or pharmacist for any potentially adverse interactions.Eve Glazier, M.D., MBA, is an internist and associate professor of medicine at UCLA Health.Elizabeth Ko, M.D., is an internist and assistant professor of medicine at UCLA Health.Black licorice should be consumed only in moderation TUESDAY, JUNE 4, 2019 Today is the 155th day of 2019 and the 77th day of spring.TODAY\u2019S HISTORY: In 1912, Massachusetts became the first U.S.state to pass a minimum wage law.In 1917, the first Pulitzer Prizes were awarded.In 1942, the Battle of Midway began as the Japanese navy launched a raid on Midway Island.In 1989, Chinese government troops and tanks crushed a massive demonstration of pro-democracy protesters in Beijing\u2019s Tiananmen Square.In 1998, Terry Nichols was sentenced to life in prison for his role in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.TODAY\u2019S BIRTHDAYS: Robert Merrill (1917-2004), opera singer;

the Sichuan peppercorns gave the dish sparkling spice and aromatic piquancy, while black peppercorns provided a straightforward hit of heat.We added the black peppercorns and Sichuan peppercorns along with cayenne and sugar to the coating and then fried more of the same with ginger and garlic to make a flavourful paste that we tossed the fried shrimp in for great depth.For an extra jolt of spiciness, we also fried a couple of thinly sliced jalapenos.We like to use frozen shrimp; thaw them overnight in the fridge or under running cold water and blot them dry.Use a Dutch oven that holds 6 quarts or more for this recipe.Serve with steamed white rice.CRISPY SALT AND PEPPER SHRIMP Servings: 4-6 Start to finish: 1 hour 1 1/2 pounds shell-on medium-large shrimp (31 to 40 per pound) 2 tablespoons Chinese rice wine or dry sherry Kosher salt 2 1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns, coarsely ground 2 teaspoons Sichuan peppercorns, coarsely ground 2 teaspoons sugar 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 4 cups vegetable oil 5 tablespoons cornstarch 2 jalapeno chiles, stemmed, seeded, and sliced into 1/8 inch-thick rings 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger 2 scallions, sliced thin on bias Shredded iceberg lettuce Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 225 F.Set wire rack in rimmed baking sheet and line large plate with triple layer of paper towels.Toss shrimp with rice wine and 1 teaspoon salt in large bowl and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.Combine black peppercorns, Sichuan peppercorns, sugar, and cayenne in small bowl.Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium heat until oil registers 385 F.Meanwhile, drain shrimp and pat dry with paper towels; wipe bowl dry with paper towels.Transfer shrimp to now-empty bowl, add 3 tablespoons cornstarch and 1 tablespoon peppercorn mixture, and toss until well coated.Carefully add one-third of shrimp to hot oil and fry, stirring occasionally to keep shrimp from sticking together, until light brown, 2 to 3 minutes.Adjust burner, if necessary, to maintain oil temperature between 375 F and 385 F.Using wire skimmer or slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to prepared plate and let drain briefly.Transfer shrimp to prepared rack and keep warm in oven.Return oil to 385 F and repeat frying shrimp in 2 more batches, re-tossing each batch thoroughly with coating mixture before frying.Line plate with clean paper towels as needed.Return oil to 385 F.Toss jalapeno rings with remaining 2 tablespoons cornstarch in separate bowl.Shake off excess cornstarch, then carefully add jalapeno rings to oil and fry until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes.Transfer jalapeno rings to prepared plate.After frying, reserve 2 tablespoons frying oil.Heat reserved oil in 12 inch skillet over medium- high heat until shimmering.Add garlic, ginger, and remaining peppercorn mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is fragrant and just beginning to brown, about 45 seconds.Add shrimp, scallions, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and toss to coat.Line serving platter with shredded lettuce.Arrange shrimp on platter and sprinkle with jalapeno rings.Serve immediately.Nutrition information per serving: 370 calories;

I\u2019ve traveled by myself before and felt confident and self- assured, but those trips have all been by plane, never by car.Any and all advice would be appreciated.\u2014 Solo Soul- Searching Dear Solo Soul-Searching: It sounds like you\u2019ll be going the route that takes you past the Grand Canyon: There really are no words to describe the majesty.And that\u2019s just one of many memorable sights you\u2019ll be seeing.There is so very much of this big, beautiful country to take in.This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I\u2019m glad you\u2019re making for yourself.Preparation is key, and it\u2019s good you\u2019re taking your safety seriously.AAA offers the following road trip tips: \u2014\u201dEnsure your vehicle is properly maintained.If maintenance is not up to date, have your car and tires inspected before you take a long drive.\u2014\u201dMap your route in advance and be prepared for busy roads during the most popular times of the year.If possible, consider leaving earlier or later to avoid heavy traffic.\u2014\u201dKeep anything of value in the trunk or covered storage area.\u2014\u201dHave roadside assistance contact information on hand, in case an incident occurs on the road.\u2014\u201dIn case of an emergency, keep a cellphone and charger with you at all times.AAA and many other companies offer smartphone applications that enable motorists to request help without making a phone call.\u201d You might also invest in a satellite messenger, which should be available at most major sporting goods stores.(Hikers use them on trails.) This will allow you to share your location with friends and to communicate with emergency service teams should you find yourself stranded.They have far greater coverage than cellphones.Lastly, if you\u2019re not already a AAA member, I recommend joining.You can stop by a AAA center for help planning your road trip.Dear Annie: I have to weigh in on the letter from \u201cScared,\u201d who was terrified of turning 40.My goodness! I heard a long time ago that \u201cmiddle age is 10 years older than you are,\u201d and I loved that quote! My age has never been an issue for me (coming up on 86 in a few weeks), and I freely admit my age to others.To be hung up on age is very sad.I hope they can get over this sense of \u201cgetting older,\u201d which I welcome.(Though it\u2019s not \u201cgetting old\u201d; there\u2019s a difference.) Being active and interested in everything, life is wonderful, I cherish my faith, family and friends! \u2014 Grace Nelson Dear Grace Nelson: May we all live with as much joie de vivre as yourself.Thanks for the beautiful letter, and happy birthday! \u201cAsk Me Anything: A Year of Advice From Dear Annie\u201d is out now!
