Oh.Let me quote NBA.com for you: \u201cNever has an NBA championship turned so significantly on a four-second sequence.\u201d From Wikipedia: \u201cThe game is considered by players and commentators to be one of the greatest games in NBA history.\u201d Oh.Three years later, I still don\u2019t know whether I did the right thing by sending James to bed.Did that extra 45 minutes of sleep improve his exam results?Will he remember that science or algebra or whatever it was?By contrast, professional sports may be ludicrous but they are so emotionally charged that they embed themselves in our brains among the happiest memories.A memory I robbed him of.Did I mention it was one of the greatest games in NBA history?This is parenthood.This is the grey area of decision-making.There are certain things I can attest to unequivocally as a father.For example, never underestimate the wellness power of freshly shined shoes.Spanking is unproductive for everyone involved.Never even hint to your wife that her having her period is somehow inconvenient to you.And then there are things there are no answers to, like is it less of a drag to fill the lawnmower after you mow or before?Do you force your child to do something she has a natural talent for even if she says she doesn't want to do it anymore?In the pursuit of percentage points, do you deprive your son something he's waited 17 cable-less years for?Charcoal or gas?We can never know which decisions will lead to regret, resentment, charred steak.And so it comes up.It came up during Game 4 on Friday, the first in the Cava-liers-Warriors series that wasn\u2019t a blowout either way.Finally a game worth watching, we both agreed, even though it was late and James had to work at 7 a.m.But he\u2019s an adult now.I can\u2019t send him to bed.I can only recommend it.In fact, I said to him, \u201cI could send you to bed,\u201d so technically, I brought it up.But I said it jokingly, attempting to lighten the burden of regret.I\u2019m hoping that, maybe this way, he won't bring it up in my eulogy.World Refugee Day marked Record Staff Sherbrooke The Service d\u2019aide aux Néo-Canadiens (SANC) is inviting the public to participate in the celebration of World Refugee Day 2016 this Friday, June 17, at the Central Library (Agora) at the Université de Sherbrooke fromll :30 a.m.World Refugee Day is held in honor of refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced persons, and stateless persons and to salute their determination, courage, and hope for a better life.The UN General Assembly has set June 20 as the International Day.This event offers us a program chronicling the special situation and urgency of some 43.7 million refugees in the world under the theme \"The hopes and dreams we share.\" The evening will feature touching stories of refugees, stakeholders, and organizations that aim to highlight the dreams and aspirations of an increasingly diverse community.In Sherbrooke, World Refugee Day has been organized by involving citizens, ethnic associations, the Université de Sherbrooke, the Sherbrooke-Colombiestrie network, the Canadian Council of Refugees, the Estrie educational-cultural Association (AÉTE), the Federation of cultural communities in the Eastern Townships (FFCE), Support for refugee and immigrant families in the Eastern Townships (SAFRIE), Intercultural Family Encounters Estrie (RIFE) the support service for new Canadians (SANC), and the Car- refour d\u2019aide et solidarité.Never since the Second World War has the number of people uprooted by conflict been as high as it is today.This unprecedented increase in the number of displaced people tests the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and its partners, and unfortunately the situation continues to worsen.Faced with the growing number of people forced to flee, the anxiety of the general public is increasing, which often leads to misinformation or misunderstandings, and prejudice against refugees.The evening will include several talks on the personal experiences of modern refuges.Ben by Daniel Shelton M-MISS FRUMPLEY7/ X HEARP FROM THE MILKMAN/ WHO HE4RP IT FROM THE Mailman that BENJAMIN IS SUFFERING ERCMASORE BACK f HELLa I I*\u2014-l\u2014l\u20141 OLIVIA PEAR.i SR j VT5K WELL, I'VE COME TO GIVE MIA) COMFORT VWIRMAKEHIS gJFY FEEL GOOPALL OVER !

artists in your neighbourhood?By Gordon Lambie This year marks the 15th edition of the Grande Virée Artistique de Sherbrooke, the six-day period during which select local artists open the doors of their workshops to the general public to let the world know who they are and what they do.In 2016 there are 22 different artists signed up to participate in all corners of the city, from Deauville to Stoke, as well as nine local businesses that will be displaying work as a part of the activity.The tour is based at the Pierre-Gobeil Cultural Centre in Rock Forest and proceeds in a generally eastward direction, looping back through Lennoxville and Mont Bellevue in the last few stops.François Fournier\u2019s workshop is the only stop on the art tour in Lennoxville.The artist works out of his garage at 9 John-Wilson street creating oil paintings of different views of the Eastern Townships.\u201cWhat I do is drive along the back roads, pull over to the side and paint on site,\u201d the artist said, explaining that he works on landscapes between Lac Megantic and Stanstead.This is not Fournier\u2019s first time as a part of the art tour, as he participated once in 2005 while living in Sherbrooke\u2019s old North Ward.Despite the nine year pause, he said he is very fond of the way the tour opens up artists\u2019 doors to the community.More information about the art tour is available in French at www.lagrande-vireeartistique.qc.ca.The small orange signs marking different stops along the route will be out on July 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, and 10.The signs are numbered and feature a small

master plan management to the architectural landscaping firm of Groupe Rousseau-Lefebvre The decision comes after public consultations and meetings of various committees.The plan calls for an overall vision for the city center and defines its various components.The next step is a call for tenders for plans and specifications based on the master plan.Revitalization Committee Chair Diane Pelletier says that \"the blueprint also suggests some parameters to develop a brand signature, inspired by the history of the city of Magog which developed thanks to the textile industry.\u201d Mayor Vicki May Hamm emphasized the major infrastructure work included in projects, notably water main, sewer, road, and sidewalks in the west end of the city, with consideration for pedestrians and cyclists.This work is estimated at $20 million.Pelletier assured business that will be affected that the city has heard their concerns about the impact on commerce particularly with regard to time frames, parking, and compensation for lost business, but gave no specific details The mayor concluded by saying that \"the ultimate goal is to beautify the city, to give it its nobility and economic vitality.After all, our city is one of three tourist centers in the region with Mount Orford and Lake Memphremagog.To successfully meet the challenge, we must plan the site very carefully so that work interferes as little as possible with business and that the revitalization of downtown is carried out in harmony and in a timely manner.\" TOWN OF MAGOG Artist\u2019s conception Vigil in solidarity with Orlando

American court decision condemning it to compensate competitor Arctic Cat in a patent infringement case will cost the company a total of $60 million with a Florida federal court judge adding $40 million in punitive damages to the $19.5 million in compensative damages already awarded.On June 1, BRP was ordered to pay $19.5 million in damages to Arctic Cat after a jury concluded that BRP had violated two patents related to a safety device designed to prevent watercraft accidents.Arctic Cat had argued that more than 151,000 Sea-Doo watercraft from the years 2009-2015 were implicated Last week, BRP president and CEO José Boisjoli confirmed his intention to appeal the judgment, and said the jury's verdict was \"baseless.\" This is not the first time BRP and Arctic Cat have found themselves before the courts because of patent disputes.In 2011, the company filed a lawsuit in Canada as well as in civil court in Illinois, accusing its US rival of infringing a major patent for its snowmobiles.BRP accused Arctic Cat BRP of having copied its REV platform, a chassis developed in 2003 improve ergonomics and comfort.Moving Muscles TCFD $30,000 to purchase a bronchoscope for

like Porter hope to change.\u201cWe saw it on a personal level,\u201d Porter said of the disease.When the fundraiser first began, one of the firefighters had a nephew who was affected with muscular dystrophy.Frédérick Duguay was only nine years old during the first bike ride, and at this point was still able to walk around on crutches.Over the years, Duguay\u2019s condition became worse and worse, eventually subjecting him to an electronic wheelchair.Duguay passed away in 2015 at the age of 21.\u201cThere\u2019s nothing more disheartening than watching a teenager not be able to do the things teenagers do,\u201d said Porter of watching Duguay\u2019s condition worsen over time.He remains the ambassador of the organization, and a motivator for all those involved.Porter stated that the goal of the TCFD is to raise 50,000 dollars this year, as well as increase the awareness of the disease within the Eastern Townships.Since the inaugural journey, he commented that they had raised approximately $450,000 for MDC.\u201cPart of the money goes to research, part of it goes to services,\u201d he explained.This could mean helping people renovate their homes to accommodate wheelchairs, to supplying necessary equipment.After 14 years, the fundraiser is still going strong.Porter commented that they had managed to maintain interest in the fundraiser.\u201cIt fluctuates from year to year,\u201d he said of the number of participants, adding, \u201cWe have a good base of people.\u201d This good base is something that Porter is now trying to build up.\u201cRight now the push is to

(PR) and preferential voting First past the post Tim Belford I can\u2019t help but be fascinated by the ongoing debate over proposed changes to the way we elect our members of parliament.If Prime Minister Selfie gets his way, the next election will be held under a new voting method.The old \u2018first past the post system\u2019, which we inherited from our British ancestors, is out.What we will replace it with is now up for debate.According to a recent report by something called Abacus Data, there are actually 15 possible systems in the running, not counting the ever popular \u2018show of hands.\u2019 For the life of me I can\u2019t think of 15 ways to elect a government but who am I to argue.The reasons that the process in which the person who simply gets the most votes is no longer acceptable are interesting.First and foremost, according to the critics, is that it allows a party with less than fifty per cent of the popular vote to run the country like Mr.Harper did his last time around.This was definitely a bad thing, as the Liberals and NDP never tired of telling us, since Mr.Harper passed so many horrible laws without the support of the entire nation.The fact that the present Liberal government is in the same situation is irrelevant since, unlike the Tories, it represents traditional Canadian values.The second, and equally important reason to dump the present system, is that it doesn\u2019t reflect the actual vote properly.Smaller parties, the Greens, the Bloc and occasionally the Rhinoceros, maintain that if they get 6 or 10 per cent of the vote they should also get 6 or 10 per cent of the seats instead of the 1 or none they get now.The NDP, who tradi- tionally get fewer seats than their share of the vote would indicate, agree.On the other hand, supporters of\u2018first past the post\u2019 suggest that the system works just fine and if it was good enough for our grandfathers it should be good enough for us.Mind you outdoor privies were good enough for our grandfathers as well but that didn\u2019t make them the be-all and end-all in plumbing technology.The two most popular alternatives appear to be \u2018mixed member proportional representation\u2019 (PR) and preferential voting.In the first, everybody would vote twice, once for your ridings MP and once for the party of your choice.Presumably, the MP elected would join other MPs based on the proportion of each party\u2019s popular vote.Each riding would then have several members representing it which, of course, is exactly what the average voter wants - more politicians.Preferential voting, on the other hand, involves ranking candidates from first to last.Then, if no candidate gets over 50 per cent of the vote, the last place person is eliminated from the ballot and everyone\u2019s second choice is tabulated.This continues until one of the candidates gets 50 per cent plus one of the vote.This is the Liberal Party\u2019s favored system since they can\u2019t believe a Harper voter would choose and NDP candidate or a Green as second choice and members of the NDP would sooner slit their wrists than pick a Tory as runner up leaving the nation, fittingly some would say, governed by everyone\u2019s second favorite.The hold-up in the process, however, is the Conservative\u2019s insistence on a referendum to ratify any changes.Mr.Trudeau has already gone on record saying \u201cReferendums are a pretty good way of not getting electoral reform.\u201d Perhaps they are also a pretty good way of finding out if Canadians actually want electoral reform.You never know.Tim Belford recently received the Best Column Writing award for 2015 from the Quebec Community Newspapers Association.RECORD 1195 Galt East, Sherbrooke, Quebec JIG 1Y7 Fax:

also built his own airplane hangar to house the \tL J\tle 1\t3©rc.\tLer 1\tLVeport\tplane.Stanstead airstrip wants clearance for US landings By Matthew McCully Local farmer and private pilot George Weller is hoping to get Canpass certification for his airstrip in Stanstead to facilitate air travel for small plane U.S.pilots wanting to visit the area.Weller explained that as it stands, pilots are required to land at official ports of entry when travelling across the border.If a pilot in a small plane wanted to fly from Newport, VT to Stanstead for the afternoon, the closest official ports of entry for air traffic would be Bromont or Sherbrooke, and only open at certain hours.\u201cSmall planes having to go a long way out of the way is difficult,\u201d Weller said.\u201cIt\u2019s one more thing to help the local economy,\u201d Weller said, explaining that with Canpass, small planes could hop By Matthew McCully This summer\u2019s annual fundraising event for the Colby-Curtis Museum will bring supporters back to the garden, according to curator Chloe Southam.For the past three years, Southam said the annual fundraiser has been held away from the museum.While the events were successful, Southam said this year organizers decided to bring the event back to the property so that supporters can be reminded of the mu- Frontier Animal Society In the last few weeks we've taken in two litters of kittens and a third litter is on the way.Since posting photos of their adorable little faces on our face-book page and on petfinder, we've received quite a few adoption inquiries.Of course we knew we would, after all, they are insanely cute and kittens are just so hard to resist.Anyone familiar with our shelter knows that we are strong advocates of spay/neuter.With thousands and thousands of stray and abandoned cats looking for homes, do we really need more kittens in the world?Not for awhile we don't! But the fact remains, that once they are born, they are just as deserving of a wonderful forever home where they will live out their lives happy and loved.But as irresistible as kittens are, older cats are wonderful too, and we have a few who have been with us for awhile now with little to no interest from adopters.In fact we have one, a lovely over to Stanstead, visit the museums and attractions in the area, and maybe spend the night at a local Bed and Breakfast.\u201cWith private pilots, there\u2019s this concept of the $100 hamburger,\u201d Weller said.Similar to a Sunday drive, pilots will often hop into their plane and head out to explore a new town or area.They may land and grab a burger somewhere, which might cost $5, but with gas and other expenses, it ends up costing around $100, he explained.Weller believes certifying his airstrip could increase recreational trips to the area for U.S.pilots.Weller\u2019s airstrip is private, and is around 2,600 runway feet.His Transport Quebec identifier is CTQ2.It could accommodate helicopters and anything up to a high performance single-engine plane, Weller said.He doesn\u2019t charge other pilots to use Colby- seum\u2019s mission and mandate, and really understand where their support is going.Scheduled for July 9 between 5:30 and 8:30 p.m.this year\u2019s fundraiser will be a \u2018Soirée in the garden of the Museum.\u2019 A large tent will be set up behind the buildings, and guests can mingle and roam through the garden, enjoy cocktails and snacks and live jazz music, or feel free to tour the two temporary exhibits that will be available in the museum.Southam said one of the exhibits is of it, although people are welcome to leave a donation if they wish.If it were to become Canpass certified, none of that would change, Weller said.People would still be expected to call before using the airstrip.\u201cI\u2019d still keep it low-key.\u201d His goal is to make cross border recreational trips easier and put Stanstead on the map, not become a big commercial airport.Weller hosts a fly-in every September, but it\u2019s always too complicated to host U.S.pilots, he said.He likened Canpass to a type of Nexus for the air.Weller already has the support of the municipalities of Stanstead, Ayer\u2019s Cliff and Stanstead East, as well as the MRC of Coaticook.The next step will be to approach the Canada Border Services Area and see if Curtis postcards from the different villages of Stanstead County; the other features archival material and some of the works of artist and portrait sculptor Orson Wheeler (1902-1990), who was born in Ways Mills.\u201cWe\u2019re hoping for a beautiful and sunny day,\u201d Southam said, adding that there will be a live and a silent auction.The items include artwork, jewelry, and other items donated from locals, members and friends of the museum.Southam said organizers are hoping to sell 150 tickets to the July fundraiser.his airstrip meets the criteria.Located on Stage Road, Weller said there is a Taxi close by available to bring people into town, should they land and want to spend a day in Stanstead.Weller\u2019s private airstrip is just part of his dynamic farm and property.An amateur pilot, he built the landing area to fly his own plane, which he rebuilt piece by piece with parts from other planes.He also built his own airplane hangar to house the plane.The hanger, an off-grid structure powered by wind and solar energy, boasts a panoramic view of the townships.When he and his family are not busy maintaining their organic U-pick garden and tending to the golden retrievers they breed, Weller hosts square dances and other events in the hangar.Tickets cost $100 and include the catered appetizers, two beverages and entry to the exhibits in the museum.A tax receipt is also issued, she added.Leading up to the big fundraising event will be a Victorian Garden Tea on June 26, Southam said, inviting guests to wear a lovely hat.Southam said people interested in upcoming events can visit the museum\u2019s newly updated website at www.colby-curtis.ca.Featured Pet: Miss Kitty older girl named Miss Kitty, who has been with us for over three years without a single inquiry.While she might not be as cute and playful as some of the younger cats and kittens at the shelter, she remains hopeful that one day soon, she too will find a family to love her.Miss Kitty is a stunning black cat who can be a little shy at first but it doesn't take long before she warms up.Once she becomes just a little more familiar she is very affectionate and loves to cuddle.Why has Miss Kitty been with us longer than any other of our cats?Honestly we don't know, but our guess is that being a little more timid than some of our other cats, she doesn't tend to attract the attention of visitors.For those who seek her out, as do many of our volunteers, she is always eager for some pets and it's hard not to fall for her gentle charm.Miss Kitty loves to sit on her wooden perch and feel the warmth of the sun as she gazes out the window and can often be found snuggled up in her favourite comfy spot for a midday nap.If you are looking for a quiet and distinguished older cat who we know will adore you, please consider Miss Kitty.Miss Kitty is approximately 6 years old and is best suited to a quieter home where she can settle in and spend the rest of her life feeling like she is the luckiest cat in the world.If you would like to find out more about Miss Kitty or any of the cats and kittens at our shelter, please send an email\tto frontieranimalsociety@gmail.com or give our adoption coordinator Brenda a call at 819.876.7747 any day of the week between 8 a.m and 8 p.m.Don't forget, our shelter is open every Saturday from 10 a.m to noon for cat adoptions.All of our kittens, however, are currently in foster homes near the shelter so an appointment to meet them is best.The shelter is located at 2405 rue Griffin (Route 247) in Ogden.To read about some of our other adoptable cats, please visit our website at www.safas.ca u m Printed and distributed by PressReader PressReader.com ?+1 604 278 4604 press COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW Page 8 Thursday, June 16, 2016 newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com The Record CIUSSS asking patients to travel for tests By Gordon Lambie The CIUSSS de L\u2019Estrie-CHUS is calling on the population of the Eastern Townships for help.With $25 million in budget cuts to tackle in the coming fiscal year, the regional healthcare institution is asking Townshippers to help use the resources of the institutions 14 locations better by travelling to other communities for certain tests and procedures.\u201cWe will ask people in need of certain exams, certain forms of surgery, or certain consultations to move around a bit more,\u201d said Stéphane Tremblay, Deputy General Manager of Physical and Specialized Healthcare.\u201cThe quality of service is just as good in Granby as it is in Sherbrooke.\u201d Tremblay explained that the administration of the regional healthcare es- tablishment is well aware that accessibility of health services is one of the greatest challenges facing the local population, and that working to take advantage of all of the resources available in the 14 facilities of the CIUSSS de L\u2019Estrie-CHUS is an attempt to improve that situation without incurring additional costs.While one of the greatest concerns expressed at the time that the CIUSSS was formed was that services in smaller facilities would be shut down in favour of offering more in urban centres, Tremblay said that relying on the smaller facilities actually would make more sense if the population would get on board with the idea.\u201cWe\u2019ve already asked some people on waiting lists at the CHUS if they would have their surgery in Mégantic,\u201d the Deputy General Manager said.\u201cBased on our experience it takes an average of three contacts to reach someone and so far less than one in five people have accepted.\u201d Noting that it is \u201ctoo bad\u201d that people are choosing to wait longer when offered a second choice Tremblay suggested that a lot of time, energy, and cost would be saved if more people got on board with the idea.The call for help came as a part of a reflection on the 2015-16 budget and budget forecast for 2016-17.Patricia Gauthier, the CEO of the healthcare establishment, noted that despite $30 million in cuts that had to be made last year, the CIUSSS de L\u2019Estrie-CHUS did manage to achieve a balanced budget.Looking ahead to 2017 she explained that the CIUSSS has put together a budget of $1.2 billion, of which 84.5 per cent is committed to services to the population.Though the budget is once again subject to optimization costs Gauthier and Pierre-Albert Coubert, Director of Financial Resources and Logistics, were both quick to highlight that the percentage of the budget dedicated to patient care has consistently increased over the last three years.The two also highlighted the significant decrease in administrative costs brought about by ongoing cuts to managerial positions.Formed in April of 2015 by provincial legislation, the CIUSSS de L\u2019Estrie-CHUS is Quebec\u2019s second largest regional healthcare establishment and the only one in the province to include a specific University affiliation.The grouping links fourteen different former healthcare institutions across the Eastern Townships.Third quarter employment outlook good in the Townships hours of business

today.History, native origins to be highlighted when Canadian lacrosse turns 150 By Bill Beacon THE CANADIAN PRESS The 150th anniversary of organized lacrosse in Canada will be a special time for Louis Delisle, a Hall of Famer who has been playing the sport for more than six decades.The centuries-old sport will be celebrated in a three-day festival in June, 2017, with a heavy emphasis on it's history and First Nations origins.\u201cIt means a lot,\u201d said Delisle, of the Kahnawake reserve south of Montreal, whose opening remarks at a news conference were in his native language, Kanienkeha.\u201cThere are world tournaments in field and box lacrosse.\u201cIt gives us pride to say that, as part of the First Nations people of North America, we are founders of a game that is played worldwide today.\u201d The Canadian Lacrosse Association was founded in Kingston, Ont., in the same year that Canada became a country, so both will turn 150 next year.It will also be Montreal's 375th anniversary.In 1867, Canada's first sports governing body adopted the first official lacrosse rulebook, which had been written a few years earlier by George Beers of Montreal.The celebration will include tournaments, exhibitions of artifacts, a lecture series on the sport's history and demonstration matches using rules and equipment from before and after the rules were written.It will take place mostly at McGill University, whose grounds include part of what is believed to be the site of the Iro-quoian village of Hochelaga, which was described by French explorer Jacques Cartier on his first visit in 1535.Travis Gabriel of Kanasatake, west of Montreal, brought a stick in the style of the 1860s he had made himself.It had a shorter handle and much longer and wider head, with looser netting, than today's sleek sticks.\u201cThe way they played then was a lot different than now,\u201d he said.\u201cThe ball stays in the air a lot more now.\u201cThis stick would (be used) mostly from the ground up to the shoulder level.You get it and pass it right away.The pocket really isn't made for carrying.It's more for knocking it around.\u201d The deerskin ball would also have been a little bigger and much softer than the one used today.Gabriel said it took about three months to complete a stick because the hickory wood needs to be cured to hold its shape.He was among a growing group of traditional stick makers who were each asked to make one for the game.He was glad to do it.\u201cIts not really a sport for me, it's more of a medicine,\u201d he said.\u201cThe fact that it's being recognized and talked about the way it is makes me feel good because this is something that is so deeply ingrained in our culture and traditions and in everything that we do.\u201d Event organizer Jim Calder of Calgary said they originally hoped to have celebrations in four sites, but when their bid for federal 150th anniversary funds fell through they only had cash for one.They chose McGill because of its long lacrosse history.McGill's varsity team was founded in 1873 and it has had a women's team since 1921.He said the pair of back to back games _ one traditional and one codified with rules _ will be a highlight of the weekend.\u201cIt's a demonstration and a celebration of lacrosse,\u201d he said.\u201cIt's a bit of a scripted game to show how various things happened.\u201cPeople will get an appreciation for the (traditional) game and, once it was codified with rules, how that changed the game.I think it's important for kids to understand where the game came from and, spiritually, what it means and how privileged they should feel to play the game.\u201d Police use tear gas to disperse English soccer fans By Eric Willemsen And John Leicester THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Police have used tear gas to disperse English soccer fans at the European Championship.After a match between Russia and Slo- vakia ended in Lille, police chased large groups of English fans through the back streets around the city's main railway station.A group of about 200 English fans had been getting progressively rowdier and noisier, singing songs taunting Russia, when a loud explosion was heard and some bottles were thrown.England plays in the nearby city of Lens on Thursday and thousands of their supporters have gathered in Lille.Police appeared to make at least one arrest, pinning a man against the ground.Police then charged, spraying tear gas in front of them as they ran.Some bystanders took refuge in a nearby pharmacy.Montreal based pro boxer Beterbiev opts to skip fighting at Rio Olympics The Canadian Press Montreal-based light heavyweight Artur Beterbiev will not be fighting at the 2016 Olympics.Beterbiev, who is ranked in the top 10 by all four major

back in the ring in September,\u201d Michel said in a statement.Beterbiev (10-0), who fought at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics for Russia, said last month he was thinking of taking advantage of a recent ruling allowing pro boxers to compete at the Games in Rio de Janeiro.First, he would have had to get through a qualifying tournament for pros July 3-8 in Venezuela.He returned to the ring after a year

much is enough, and how much do most people get?DEAR READER: Let\u2019s start with how much is enough.Many large studies have found that people who average fewer than seven hours of sleep per night, or more than nine hours, have more health problems.That is, there is an association between \u201ctoo little\u201d or \u201ctoo much\u201d sleep and health problems.However, these studies don\u2019t prove that too little or too much sleep is the cause of their worse health.Instead, something else may be causing too little or too much sleep, and also causing health problems.For example, people who sleep more than nine hours per night tend to have higher rates of obesity, heart disease and depression.But it could be that their primary problem is depression, not excessive sleep.People with depression often spend more time sleeping.And they often eat too much and exercise too little, and thereby become obese.Obesity, poor diet and inadequate exercise all raise the risk of heart disease.Most experts are more convinced of the adverse effects of sleeping fewer than seven hours per night.How many people are, like you, averaging fewer than seven hours per night?A recent study published by the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sheds light on that question.The study involved nearly half a million people from all 50 states and the District of Columbia.The good news was that most people (65 percent) reported that they averaged at least seven hours of sleep per night.The bad news was that 35 percent did not.That amounts to about 84 million U.S.adults.About 12 percent reported sleeping fewer than five hours per night.About 23 percent reported sleeping fewer than six hours per night.Interestingly, only about 4 percent reported averaging more than nine hours per night.So if sleeping that much is harmful, a relatively small fraction of people is affected.Averaging fewer than seven hours of sleep each night was more likely in certain groups and certain geographic areas.For example, non-Hispanic blacks, American Indians/Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders and multiracial people were more likely than other groups to report too little sleep.People in the upper Rocky Mountain and Midwest farm states got the most sleep.New York, Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama got the least sleep.When this most recent study was compared to past studies, it appeared that more Americans are sleeping longer hours than in years past.For example, in another large survey conducted in 2007-2008, only about 60 percent of people reported getting at least seven hours of sleep per night (compared with 65 percent in this study).So, sleeping seven to nine hours per night may well be healthier than sleeping fewer than seven hours per night.But that is by no means proven.Also, if it is true, it is only true for the \u201caverage\u201d person.There probably are people who are born to need more or less sleep than the average person.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.,

No one is obligated to attend any wedding, particularly a second or third.But your daughter obviously wants the support of her family and your blessing would mean a lot.If you can afford to attend, it would be a kindness to do so, but we understand the hardship of an out-of-state wedding.You also are not obligated to keep giving gifts for subsequent marriages.But again, as the grandmother, you may wish to send something small, such as a picture frame or bottle of wine.The point is not to create a rift, upset your daughter Annie\u2019s Mailbox or make your granddaughter think you love her less because she can\u2019t seem to get her act together.We say, send her a lovely card with a small token gift.Add that you are so sorry you cannot attend, but you will be thinking of her.Dear Annie: You would be a hero to English teachers everywhere, and a help to many people, if you would use your column to explain when to use \u201cI\u201d and when to use \u201cme.\u201d \u201cI\u201d is a subject pronoun (in the same group with we, she, they, etc.).\u201cMe\u201d is an object pronoun (as in us, her, him and them).\u201cI\u201d never is used after a proposition.To me, it\u2019s simple.Use \u201cme\u201d where you would use \u201cus,\u201d and use \u201cI\u201d when you would use \u201cwe.\u201d \u2014 A Faithful Reader Dear Faithful: We know many readers\u2019 eyes glazed over as soon as you said \u201csubject pronoun.\u201d But your basic instruction is good \u2014 use \u201cme\u201d when you would similarly use \u201cus,\u201d and use \u201cI\u201d when you would similarly use \u201cwe.\u201d We\u2019ve noticed this happens most often when people think using \u201cI\u201d is more classy than using \u201cme.\u201d No, it\u2019s not.Sometimes, using a different pronoun or the singular version makes it obvious which is the correct choice.We\u2019ve heard people say, \u201cJim and me went to the store,\u201d but if you remove \u201cJim,\u201d you\u2019d never say, \u201cMe went to the store\u201d (unless you are Cookie Monster).And for all those who are still paying attention, the correct phrase is \u201cbetween you and me.\u201d Please.Dear Annie: I\u2019ve seen several doctors recently, and each time I noticed that they gave a lot of information so quickly that I could not absorb it all, nor could I remember it entirely.I also received written instructions after a recent surgery, but those weren\u2019t particularly good, either.Part of the instructions included a form that was filled out by the doctor, whose handwriting I had difficulty reading.Ideally, all information would be typed up and handed to the patient.Granted, it takes time for someone to do this, but it\u2019s the patients\u2019 health we are dealing with.If the doctor refuses to provide this, I suggest bringing a voice recorder.Turn it on when you\u2019re told \u201cthe doctor will see you shortly,\u201d and make sure the doctor speaks clearly.Ask them to repeat anything if you don\u2019t think it came across.Ask the doctor to explain medical terms that are used routinely, but that you may not understand.Are there any legal issues involved in doing this?Of course, doctors should be informed that they are being recorded.\u2014 Get It Right Dear Get: If you are recording the doctor\u2019s instructions for your personal and private use, there should be no objection \u2014 legal or otherwise.But most doctors have computerized systems, and in many instances, test results and instructions can be sent to patients via email.Ask your doctor about this.Hospitals also should be handing you typed post-surgical instructions.Of course, it is important to read through everything and to call your doctor if you do not understand something.Too many patients are reluctant to phone or email their doctor, because they don\u2019t want to be a nuisance.But it is important to be proactive about your health care.Doctors don\u2019t want you to misinterpret their instructions, either.Annie\u2019s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
