It's amazing, the chemistry, like I'm the same person! \u201cMaybe I\u2019ll see me later,\u201d I say.\u201cIf I pass a mirror I will,\u201d I reply coyly.Good looking and funny?I think I love me! Later, I \u201caccidentally\u201d run into myself at the pharmacy.Except it's completely embarrassing because I catch myself picking up hemorrhoid cream.\u201cIt's for my eyes!\u201d I explain, to which I reply, \u201cThen I think I\u2019m using it wrong.\u201d I laugh, and I explain that, no, it's good for reducing eye wrinkles, and I smile, neither I nor me realizing that a man worrying about eye wrinkles is kind of swishy.The encounter leads to coffee, coffee to an evening stroll.As the sun begins to set, I tentatively reach out and take my hand.And I walk, hand in hand, talking to myself like I've been talking to myself all my life.But then I go and say something stupid, like \u201cSo.How do I feel about Justin Trudeau?\u201d And immediately I can see myself go awkward and inarticulate as I mutter about positivity and Canadian values but my eyes betray a deep wariness.I'm quiet after that, and when I reach my door, I try to give myself a goodnight kiss on the cheek, but I miss.Later that evening, I get an email from myself apologizing for my behaviour.\u201cIt wasn't me,\u201d I write, \u201cit was me.\u201d Then I confess that I do have feelings for me and would like to spend some time getting to know me better.After that, I\u2019m inseparable.I spend every minute I can with me.When I'm could help them through this difficult time.\u201cIt\u2019s kind of an emergency.It\u2019s getting worse and worse,\u201d she said, commenting that the government tends to work slowly in these matters and that help may come too late.While Forget is battling the blight, other orchards in the Eastern Townships are not having those issues.A spokesperson at Au Paradis Des Fruits in Dunham said to The Record that they were not worried about fire blight.\u201cWhere we are is the warmest place in the winter,\u201d he explained, indi- apart from me, I'm just not myself.Is there physical attraction?Yes, of course there is, but it's more than that, almost spiritual.And the amazing thing is, I'm not even repulsed by my clusters of nipple hair.I take it slow because I don't want to scare myself off.\u201cI've been hurt before,\u201d I say.\u201cI would never hurt me,\u201d I reply.Things progress.One beautiful, unforgettable night, I get to third base.[Editor\u2019s note: I'm not sure what he means this time and I don't want to know.] Of course, it's not all bliss and endless ice cream.At one point, I get angry with myself for giving up on \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d halfway through season two.And I have my first real argument about being so self-centred.\u201cWhy does everything always have to be about me!\u201d I shout at myself.I agree, which only makes things worse.The thing is, I both know it will have to come to end.This is just a summer fling.Once September rolls around, I have to go back to my own life, and I to mine.Finally, the day comes when I have to say goodbye.There are tears in my eyes, and I cry a little too.I promise to write to myself, Skype with myself once a week, without fail.\u201cEvery time I offer someone a piece of ID,\u201d I say, \u201cI\u2019ll think of me.\u201d I stay in touch with me for a while, but soon I move on.Life gets busy.Before long, I understand that what I had with me was special, magical, something I\u2019ll never forget.But a little part of me knows that if I had spent more time together, I would eventually get sick of myself.eating that location and weather were a factor in the spreading of the disease.The owner of Heath Orchard in Stanstead, Chris Rawlings, commented that his farm also had no signs of fire blight.\u201cThings here are looking normal and no fire blight has been observed,\u201d he said, adding that fire blight can be a big worry.It is a worry that Forget saw come to life, and is worried she will see for the foreseeable future.Once fire blight infects the trees, it sticks to them, making it hard to find a permanent solution.Ben by Daniel Shelton HOW LONG BEFORE .HIS COLLAR'S PRt?CAN WE PUT SOMETHING IN THE MEANTIME?FEW HOURS NOW THAT IM RETIRER J NEVER USE A Tl E/NYv/AY.'

Chair of the Festival des traditions du monde de Sherbrooke,With the musicians of Danse TRAD Sherbrooke and Ramon Chicharron Credit : Jocelyn Riendeau.Little red schoolhouse \u2014 tures of the world together for a five-day celebration of diversity and artistic expression.\u201cThe Festival des Traditions du Monde de Sherbrooke has developed over the years into a veritable global village,\u201d said Louis-André Neault, Vice Chair of the festival\u2019s Board of Directors speaking at an event held to launch the programming of the event on Tuesday night.\u201cYear after year this theme has grown stronger.\u201d Calling the festival a gathering point that highlights the importance and value of cultural diversity, Neault celebrated the event\u2019s role as a significant tourist destination and a core part of Sherbrooke\u2019s identity.Over the course of the five-day festival more than 600 artists will perform 200 concerts and shows on eight different performance stages spread around the site.Different cultural groups will also operate 17 internationally themed restaurants giving visitors a taste of the flavours of the world.\u201cThis is an event that draws thousands of people from all across Quebec and abroad,\u201d said Danielle Berthold, City Councillor in the Borough of Fleurimont, referring to the festival as an opportunity for discovery, exchange, and openness to others, \u201cThis is a tour of the world in five days.\u201d Neault, was enthusiastic about the innovation involved in keeping the festival growing year after year.The Vice Chair was one of several event organizers who spoke with enthusiasm on Tuesday night about the new \"Americas Shack\" which is being introduced this year as a venue for music relating to First Nations cultures as well as Creole, Reggae, and Québécois music, amongst others.The public can access to all five days of the festival with a passport, available for only $15 or $10 if purchased in advance.Per-day access is $5 although the festival remains free for children 14 years old and younger.Tickets can be purchased at local Metro Stores and participating Jean Coutu pharmacies in the Eastern Townships.More information about the festival is available online at www.ftms.ca Cont\u2019d from page 1 \u201cI could talk for days about this stuff,\u201d he laughed.Besides facilitating tours, Freedman has a lot of ideas he wants to work with the Loomis\u2019 to put into action.\u201cI have some creative freedom that way, with what I can do.\u201d The immersive quality of the actual room and the richness of the history made the job even more appealing to Freedman.\u201cThis room is the history.You feel it,\u201d he said.The replica desk built by Milt Loomis and the replica costumes made by Bev Loomis increase the authenticity that the original pieces in the room, like the chimney and the schoolbooks, provide.Restoration work and replicas were made based on clues the building gave them.The milk-based paint originally used never fully came off, and patterns it created showed them the shapes of the desk, the height of the teacher\u2019s platform, and even some shapes they are still unable to figure out.\u201cIt\u2019s like detective work,\u201d Freedman commented, adding that he enjoyed trying to piece it all together.What really makes it remarkable is that even years after the school has stopped operating, there are still personal connections to it.Freedman mentioned a woman who had taught at the school in 1917 came to the opening in 2002, when she was 101 years old.He also mentioned some amusing stories about a former student, Lloyd George, who was a big supporter of the school despite his troublemaking ways when he was a student.George attended the school from 1929 to 1937 before becoming a pilot in World War II.After the war, he wrote a book that detailed some of the shenanigans he got up to in his classroom days.Freedman laughed as he recounted George\u2019s tale about how whenever he went up to the teacher\u2019s desk, he would push the clock hand ahead.He managed to get himself and his fellow classmates out for the day an hour early.This is only one of the amusing tidbits of history that Freedman believes makes the schoolhouse a must-see historical spot.The only problem is that not a lot of people are seeing it.\u201cI don\u2019t think too many people know about it,\u201d Freedman said.The beautiful, yet middle-of-nowhere location on McVety Road in Milby doesn\u2019t help.He hopes to change this by creating a website and a social media presence.\u201cThe website I\u2019m hoping will make a difference,\u201d he added, stating that he hoped to have it up and running very soon.Once that is finished, Freedman, a Bishop\u2019s student, said he hoped to get the school, particularly the history department, involved.\u201cWe\u2019d like to start forming a kind of relationship with Bishop\u2019s,\u201d he explained.Freedman\u2019s internship, which ends in August, will not mark the stop of his in- volvement with the schoolhouse.He explained that while during the year they could not keep the schoolhouse open on a regular basis, he would be staying on as a volunteer, and doing what he could to help people see and experience it.It is Freedman\u2019s hope that with an in- creased online presence, and a willing, eager volunteer, more people will become aware of, and enjoy, the little red schoolhouse and the history inside it.The schoolhouse is open from Wednesday to Sunday, 1-7 p.m.RACHEL NEWCOMBE

The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Thursday, July 28, 2016 Page 9 Canada needs cyberbullying laws that allow for non criminal solutions By Michael Tutton THE CANADIAN PRESS Canada needs cyberbullying laws that curb unwanted sharing of sexual pictures without always requiring police investigations, a law professor said Tuesday.Nova Scotia had a Cyber Safety Act _ the first in Canada _ from the fall of 2013 until the legislation was struck down by the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia near the end of 2015, when a judge ruled that it infringed on charter rights of freedom of expression.During a meeting of the International Society for the Reform of Criminal Law in Halifax on Tuesday, several experts said that since the law was struck down, victims of online harassment have to turn either to complicated police investigations or expensive civil court suits.Wayne MacKay, who teaches human rights law at Dalhousie University, said in an interview he's eager for the province to follow up on a promise to amend and reintroduce its cyberbullying law and bring an investigative unit back into action.He says the new law should allow for informal requests to swiftly take down offensive words and images, and allow for civil court actions that would hold people accountable for distributing intimate images.\u201cI think there's some degree of urgency,\u201d the former chair of the Nova Scotia Task Force on Bullying and Cyberbullying said after a seminar at the conference.\u201cWe're allowing people to get back into bad old habits.\u201d Roger Merrick, the director of public safety investigations with the province's Justice Department, said there is no firm timeline for the amended legislation, but a legal team is working to have it ready \u201cas quickly as possible.\u201d He provided statistics indicating there were about 820 investigations by the Cy-berScan unit over the two years before the law was struck down, and in over 100 cases there were informal resolutions to the problem.\u201cWe could resolve the complaint informally without having to go to court.That's the benefit of the civil law,\u201d he said.He said in 13 cases the unit went to court seeking orders against online harassment.\u201cThere's certainly a gap .There's a gap now because we don't have the ability to deal with cases that aren't criminal but are just as damaging.\u201d During his presentation, Merrick also said there were 118 investigations of \u201cdomestic cases,\u201d where the cyberbullying occurred between people who had been in a relationship for a period of time.MacKay said he's concerned about a growing trend of so-called \u201crevenge pornography,\u201d where intimate images are shared on the internet after relationships end.He said it's happening more often as people come to consider it normal to share private images online, without considering how those images might be used in the future.The professor said Manitoba has an Intimate Image Protection Act that was introduced in January that is proving useful.Manitobans dealing with revenge porn can contact the Canadian Centre for Child Protection to report cases of non-consensual sharing of sexual pictures.The legislation provides remedies such as having the images removed from social media and having investigators contact individuals to request they remove or delete the image.Under the act, victims can also sue in civil court to hold a person accountable financial for distributing sexual pictures without consent.MacKay also noted the federal anti-cy-berbullying legislation introduced in late 2013 after the high-profile death of Nova Scotia teen Rehtaeh Parsons.The bill became law in March 2015 and allows for criminal prosecutions when sexual pictures are shared without consent and when there was a reasonable expectation the images would be kept private.Parsons attempted suicide and was taken off life support after a digital photo of what her family says was a sexual assault was circulated among students at her school in Cole Harbour, N.S.Canadian Madeleine Thien and Canada born David Szalay get Booker Prize nods The Associated Press Two Canadians are among 13 novelists nominated for Britain's prestigious Booker Prize for fiction.Madeleine Thien of Vancouver and Canadian-born David Szalay got nods for their novels \u201cDo Not Say We Have Nothing\u201d and \u201cAll That Man Is\u201d respectively.Celebrated South African novelist J.M.Coetzee and U.S.Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout are also among the contenders announced Wednesday.Coetzee's \u201cThe Schooldays of Jesus\u201d and Strout's \u201cMy Name is Lucy Barton\u201d are among the best-known titles on a 13-book longlist that spurned big-name writers including Ian McEwan and Don DeLillo in favour of less famous authors and first-time novelists.Coetzee, who lives in Australia, is the early bookies' favourite and would become the first triple Booker winner if he takes the prize.He won in 1983 with \u201cLife and Times of Michael K\u201d and in 1999 with \u201cDisgrace.\u201d Strout won the fiction Pulitzer in 2009 for \u201cOlive Kitteridge,\u201d which was turned into a HBO miniseries starring Frances McDormand.The eclectic list features four first nov- els _ David Means' \u201cHystpoia,\u201d Wyl Men-muir's \u201cThe Many,\u201d Ottessa Moshfegh's \u201cEileen\u201d and Virginia Reeves' \u201cWork Like Any Other\u201d _ alongside established authors such as A.K.Kennedy for \u201cSerious Sweet\u201d and Deborah Levy for \u201cHot Milk.\u201d There's also a rare nomination for a crime thriller, Graeme Macrae Burnet's \u201cHis Bloody Project.\u201d Biographer Amanda Foreman, who chairs the five-member judging panel, said the books had \u201cprovoked intense discussion and, at times, passionate debate, challenging our expectations of what a novel is and can be.\u201d Previously open to writers from Britain, Ireland and the Commonwealth, the Booker expanded in 2014 to include all English-language authors.Despite fears of U.S.dominance, there has not yet been an American winner of the prize, which usually brings the victor a huge sales boost.Six finalists will be announced Sept.13 and the winner of the 50,000 pound (C$86,000) prize will be named on Oct.25.Founded in 1969, the award is named after its sponsor, financial services firm Man Group PLC.inca Watch me, Grandma!

(819) 569-9525 or (450) 242-1188 Spider veins are unsightly but pose no medical threat ASK DOCTOR K By Anthony L.Komaroff, M.D.DEAR DOCTOR K: I have developed many small, thin veins on my legs.I would like to get rid of them.What is the most effective treatment?DEAR READER: Superficial leg veins, sometimes called \u201cspider veins,\u201d occur when tiny veins appear just below the surface of the skin, causing red, blue or purple discolorations.Spider veins get their name from the shape of the discolorations.Some cases of spider veins can be quite small: others are more noticeable.They may make you feel self-conscious, but they are harmless.(I\u2019ve put an illustration of spider veins on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) Spider veins are a sign that there are abnormalities in the deeper veins of the legs.Those deep veins have little valves in them.Blood in the veins of the legs is returning from the legs to the heart.When we are sitting or standing, gravity is pulling the blood downward, away from the heart.The valves prevent gravity from doing that.As we get older, the valves become less effective.The extra blood that gravity pulls down into the leg veins causes the pressure in the veins to rise.Ultimately, that increased pressure swells the tiny veins beneath the skin \u2014 leading to spider veins.Spider veins are most common on the thighs, ankles and calves.They are more common in women than men, and they can run in families.Some cases are related to pregnancy, use of birth control pills or weight gain.Spider veins may be permanent, or they may disappear on their own, especially if they are caused by pregnancy or certain medications.Spider veins do not require treatment for any medical reason.Treatment is usually done for cosmetic reasons only.In some people, support stockings may decrease the size of existing spider veins and help to prevent new ones.If that doesn\u2019t do the trick, the two most common cosmetic treatments for spider veins are sclerotherapy and laser treatment: \u2014 Sclerotherapy involves having a salt solution injected directly into the affected area.This liquid causes irritation and inflammation of the vein, leading to its collapse.The area maybe tender for a few days.Any bruising should fade over a few weeks.Sclerotherapy may require multiple treatments.The injections can be slightly painful.\u2014 Laser treatment directs pulses from a laser light to the spider veins, causing tiny blood clots to form.The blood vessels that form the legs of the \u201cspider\u201d become blocked off and are reabsorbed by the body.Each treatment has its pros and cons.Sclerotherapy is better for larger veins, but it involves needles and injections.Laser therapy can be as effective for smaller veins, but it may result in loss of skin pigment.In studies comparing the treatments, sclerotherapy is more likely to be successful.Maintaining a healthy weight and staying physically fit tend to reduce the pressure inside leg veins.Wearing support hose can further protect against the development of more spider veins.To get rid of the ones you have, talk to your doctor about the alternatives I\u2019ve described.(Dr.Komaroff is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.To send questions, go to AskDoctorK.com, or write: Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.) \tSUDOKU\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \tDifficulty: 4 (of 5)\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t1\t\t7\t\t\t8\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t9\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t5\t\t \t\t\t5\t7\t\t\t\t6\t\t\t4\t8\t\t \t3\t8\t\t\t\t9\t\t7\t2\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t3\t\t\t\t\t6\t\t\t\t\t \t\t2\t\t\t\t\t\t5\t1\t\t\t\t\t \t\t6\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2\t\t\t \t\t\t8\t1\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t4\t\t \t7-28-16\t©2016 JFS/KF Dist.by Universal Uclick for UFS\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t HOW TO PLAY: Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 box-es must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.\t\t\t\t\tPREVIOUS SOLUTION\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t9\t1\t2\t7\t6\t5\t4\t3\t8\t \t\t\t\t\t7\t8\t5\t2\t3\t4\t1\t9\t6\t \t\t\t\t\t3\t4\t6\t8\t9\t1\t2\t7\t5\t \t\t\t\t\t1\t2\t4\t9\t5\t3\t8\t6\t7\t \t\t\t\t\t8\t9\t7\t1\t2\t6\t5\t4\t3\t \t\t\t\t\t5\t6\t3\t4\t8\t7\t9\t2\t1\t \t\t\t\t\t2\t7\t1\t3\t4\t8\t6\t5\t9\t \t\t\t\t\t6\t3\t9\t5\t1\t2\t7\t8\t4\t \t\t\t\t\t4\t5\t8\t6\t7\t9\t3\t1\t2\t SO years.10,000 wishes.100% Canadian.\"Only 2 more needles 'til my 20^Ars 10,000 1-800-267-WISH www.childr enswish.ca The Children\u2019s Wish Foundation of Canada pressl^fcUjjy Printed and distributed by PressReader PressR ea dce r .c o ,mop ?M,+JC
