fanatics will soon be able to purchase Bishop\u2019s Arches Brewery products in Lennoxville at the Provigo Robert Lafond.\u201cWe\u2019re hoping to get our stock out on the shelves in the beginning of the new year,\u201d said Dr.Dale Wood, the founder of the Bishop\u2019s University brewing science graduate program.Bishop\u2019s got its first taste of brewing science nearly ten years ago, when Dr.Wood offered a spring course designed for non-science students, which became an instant hit.From there, Dr.Wood developed whatwould become Eastern Canada\u2019s first academic brewery, opening in Fall 2015.The graduate certificate, a one-year, full-time program, began in Fall 2016.The Arches\u2019 beer has slowly made its way into the Lennoxville community over the years.For now, it can be purchased at the Brewery, in the Johnson Science Building, and is on tap at the Gait (the university\u2019s student pub), the Golden Lion Pub, and the Boquébière in downtown Sherbrooke.The Brewery has sold 600 bottles out of its classroom just this December.The program has gained notoriety on the international level as well, as shown by Yang Qiu, a student who travelled from China to complete the certificate.\u201cWe really haven\u2019t recruited internationally so it\u2019s truly amazing to have students like Yang around.She googled \u2018brewing science\u2019 and we popped up.Now she\u2019s here!\u201d exclaimed Wood, proudly.He added that they have also received applications from students in India and Eastern Africa.Wood gave great praise to his brewing assistant, Giovanni Venditti, without whom none of the production would be possible.Venditti applied to the program after over 35 years in the From left to right: Yanping Chi, potential student, Dr.Dale Wood, student Yang Qiu, and

government is investing more than $10 million to renovate 15 arenas and curling clubs in the coming years to provide the public and athletes with safer and more modern facilities.These projects will be carried out as part of the fourth phase of the Support Program for the replacement or modification of refrigeration systems operating on R-12 or R-22 gas in arenas and curling rinks.Minister of Education Isabelle Charest made the announcement on Tuesday during her visit to the Magog Curling and Social Club, one of the clubs benefitting from the program.The Magog club is set to receive financial assistance of nearly $86,000 for the replacement of its refrigeration system.\"My priority, as Minister for Education, responsible for sport and recreation, is the democratization of sport, and this means ensuring the widest possible access to sports and leisure infrastructure for the entire population,\u201d said Charest.\u201cTo achieve this, it is important that we have secure and up to date complexes.The investment announced today is also a concrete gesture in this direction.\" The program is part of the Fund for the development of sport and physical activity.It is intended for municipal, school or non-profit organizations for work to be completed by December 31, 2020.To date, nearly $101 million has been invested for the completion of 140 projects.CONT\u2019D ON PAGE 5 Ben

The Township of Melbourne recognizes Raymond Fortier\u2019s commitment to his municipality By Matthew McCully Well-known local singer songwriter Tim Brink is finally in possession of his long-awaited debut solo album, This is Ours.Fans can pick up a hard copy at a number of outlets in the Townships.The official launch and digital release of the album on ITunes will happen this coming February.\u201cIt\u2019s pressed and ready,\u201d the singer said, earlier in the week, plotting the course to get the delivery of CDs from the manufacturer in Ontario to the Townships.\u201cIt was quite the network of people helping to get it here,\u201d Brink said.At 3 p.m.the album was in Scarborough.It was then scheduled to get here via stops in Oshawa and Toronto, thanks to a pickup from Brink\u2019s brother.While Brink has participated in the making of seven albums with different bands, This is Ours is his first solo endeavor.According to Brink, the album involved a big learning curve and he had to overcome a lot of obstacles to reach the finish line.\u201cThere was nothing easy about this album,\u201d he said.\u201cIt\u2019s three years late,\u201d Brink explained.While things were rolling smoothly in the beginning phases, the project was put briefly on hold during Brink\u2019s appearance as a contestant on the French television singing competition La Voix.He suffered a burnout after the show, and then had trouble getting his voice back in shape.\u201cI started feeling like it would never happen,\u201d Brink said.The album was funded in part through crowd funding, and Brink felt the stress of having to postpone providing the finished product to supporters.When out in public he was often asked when the album would be finished.Eventually, Brink\u2019s voice improved to a point where he felt comfortable going back into the studio.\u201cIt was time to bring this music to light and get it out there,\u201d he said, explaining that some of the tracks on the album are songs he has been singing for 10 years.\u201cThere was a big learning curve,\u201d Brink said.Aside from the vocal issues and all of life\u2019s twists and turns, Brink explained that recording an album as a solo artist was very different from his experiences recording as a band.\u201cI had to do everything from A to Z,\u201d he said, responsible for corralling the musicians, booking studio time and making all the creative decisions.\u201cI learned what not to do for the next album,\u201d he joked.While he described the recording experience as \u2018really bad luck from beginning to end\u2019, Brink said that ultimately he is happy with what he has created.\u201cIt sounds like the idea that I had in my head years ago,\u201d he said, proud of the final product.As far as the bad luck along the way, he said, \u201cevery experience is a good experience.\u201d Among the silver linings, Brink was especially pleased to have met Lily Ko- belt, who sings backup on the album.\u201cI\u2019m really happy to have found here,\u201d he commented, explaining that their voices compliment each other.The other musicians featured on the album include Dominique Massicotte on rhythm and lead guitar, Jean-Francois Leclerc on keyboard, Julien Thibault on cello and bass, Simon Bilodeau on drums and Kim Greenwood, who plays lead guitar on the track \u2018Babe I Love You.\u2019 The album art was drawn by Townships artist Trevor Mckinven.When asked about the significance of the album title \u2018This is Ours\u2019, Brink said it was a reference to the connection that music creates between performers and an audience.\u201cYou can be the best musician in the world, but if you don\u2019t have the energy of the people in front of you, it doesn\u2019t matter,\u201d Brink said.\u201cThis album is for me, and for the people listening,\u201d the singer explained.\u201cWhen everyone\u2019s into it, this is ours, this is our moment.\u201d Brink said in the coming days he will set up some pickup points in the area for his Kickstarter supporters and fans who would like to buy the new album.In Lennoxville, they are available at Shalimar Restaurant and Black Cat Books, he said.More information about where to pick up the album and upcoming launch plans will be on his Facebook page.Wednesday , December 19, 2018 Page 3 The album was funded in part through crowd funding, and Brink felt the stress of having to postpone providing the finished product to supporters.LOCAL NEWS The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Christmas for you Join us for Carols and Christmas Dinner For transportation and/or information, call Paul McLean at 819-820-5932, OR Don & Jackie Loughheed at 819-563-7750 email info@hcclennoxville.ca or facebook.com/hcc.lennoxville Everyone welcome.No charge -

Which means that the surprises I would normally give on New Year\u2019s morning were all already earmarked for every single one of them.But, as if that was not enough to fill my heart with so much happiness and love, sponsors continued.They are still continuing.People have continued to sponsor and many of our animals now even have a THIRD gift, which I will give to them on the morning of the 28th.It\u2019s indescribably wonderful.Our animals have always been shown a little extra love during the holidays, but this will be the first year that our animals are spoiled.It makes me happy because these guys all deserve to be spoiled.They are good dogs.Good cats.They just haven\u2019t been lucky enough to find their perfect match in humans.I believe everything happens for a reason and when their perfect families find them, they will finally get what they deserve, but for now, for most of them, we are their family.They have to go without the little surprises of goodies often because we just can\u2019t afford to do more than we already do for them, but this Christmas, they definitely will not go without.They will all get the spoiling they deserve, the spoiling they would get if they were already in their forever homes.And that is thanks to all of you who care about all our little precious faces.Each one of them, as different as they all are from eachother, is precious and unique and deserve as much holiday spoiling as our animals at home do.This will be our last Pet Page of 2018.In fact, we will be back on January 16th.So, this is my opportunity to reach out to all of you reading this and say thank you.Thank you for caring.Thank you for supporting what we continue to try to do ourselves, save as many lives as we can.Thank you for understanding our limits and helping us rejoice in our accomplishments.Thank you for sympathizing with our tribulations and heartbreaks.This year seems like it lasted longer than normal, but yet, at the same time, went by so incredibly quickly.If I sit here and seriously think back over this year, my heart hurts for the losses we suffered, my heart sings for the successes we accomplished, but my heart is filled with warmth knowing that many of you started this year by reading our page and stayed with us all the way through.To all of you who stayed with us all year, throughout all the years we have been attempting to do what we can, I wish you a very Merry Christmas, the happies of Holidays, and a wonderful healthy and happy New Year.I raise a glass to all of you as I say \u201cCheers to the lives we have saved.Cheers to the lives we weren\u2019t able to.And, Cheers to all the lives we hopefully will continue to help next year.\u201d God bless Jen This page is provided by Blue Seal - The Animal Nutrition Centre and The Pet Connection.\u2022 Thank you for your continued support in 2018! Looking forward to new endeavours in 2019! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.Jen Young The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Wednesday , December 19, 2018 Page 5 Two Sherbrooke companies bene?t from Canada Economic Development fund Record Staff Équipement NAD Inc.and Les Ateliers B.G.; two growing small or medium sized businesses in the Eastern Townships will receive repayable contributions totaling $425,000 from Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions (CED), a program focused on encouraging innovation and inclusive growth by targeting projects with significant economic benefits, and acting as a facilitator in bringing together the right partners for a given project.The funding was announced on Monday Morning by Marie-Claude Bibeau, Member of Parliament for Compton\u2014 Stanstead and Minister of International Development, on behalf of Navdeep Bains, Minister responsible for the CED.With $150,000 in financial support, Équipement NAD, a manufacturer of air diffuser technologies, will be able to purchase equipment and software as well as make leasehold improvements that will double its production space.Meanwhile, Les Ateliers B.G., a company specializing in precision machining, welding, painting and assembly for the industrial market, will receive $275,000 in financial assistance to equip itself with robotic welding and handling equipment.This project will enable the company to improve its performance, improve its productivity, increase its production capacity and eventually create 10 jobs.By carrying out their respective projects, the two companies expect that they will generate total investments of over $1.1 million and create 17 new jobs in Sherbrooke.\u201cOur government\u2019s action will contribute to job creation and economic growth in our region,\u201d Bibeau said.\u201cThe funding announced today for these two Sherbrooke SMEs reflects our commitment to support businesses that help grow the economy and foster prosperity in all regions of Quebec.\u201d To find out more

pharmaceutical industry and was part of the program\u2019s first cohort.\u201cI teach the business aspect of brewing science while Dale focuses more on the scientific aspect,\u201d Venditti said.\u201cThe key is to make sure that the students leave with a comprehensive understanding of brewing science and business,\u201d he added, explaining that Students must have completed a B.Sc.in Chemistry, Biology, or Biochemistry to apply to the program.The Brewery boasts a dozen different flavours nearly every week, with original flavours crafted by the students.\u201cIn the first semester, each student helps brew the recurring, staple beers, but they are also encouraged to come up with their own flavour.It is crucial in an academic-meets-com- mercial context to also be consistent and offer our customers the same beer every time,\u201d explained Wood, adding that by the second semester, each student creates one or two original flavours.\u201cOur goal is to prepare our students for the craft and commercial brewing industry.For now, we have been doing great, as we have a 100 per cent employment rate with our graduates.We have a student who now brews in Japan, and one of our alumni, Jordan MacNevin, has even opened a brewery down in the Cayman Islands,\u201d observed Wood.\u201cAll the equipment that we have here at the brewery is what they will find in bigger breweries.Despite being the smallest brewery in Canada, all our equipment meets the industry standards.Our graduates will know what they\u2019re dealing with,\u201d mentioned Venditti.He also referred to the renovations done in the science building over the summer: \u201cWe have much more space, better equipment, and we even have a greenhouse now.The students will be able to use the hops that we grow on our own.\u201d Wood contends that craft brewing is an industry that is growing exponentially, perhaps at a faster rate than any other industry in North America.\u201cWe don\u2019t want to saturate the market with semi-qualified graduates,\u201d he said.\u201cWe want them to be contributing in a meaningful way to the craft brewing industry.That\u2019s why we only take a dozen students and give them the best possible education possible.We shape potential scientifically educated brewers and brewing analysts in the craft and industrial brewing sectors.\u201d The Arches Brewery, located on the Bishop\u2019s campus in room 214 of the Johnson building, will be open from 9 a.m.to 5 p.m.until Dec.21, when the students will leave for the holidays.To see their full selection please visit www.facebook.com/BUarchesbrewery.Arches Brewery Record Staff To ease the collection of residual materials during work planned for downtown next year, the City of Magog will test a pilot project designed to carry out consolidated waste collections from merchants and residents of the area.Disturbances surrounding the rebuilding of Principale St.will be many and this is just one of many examples.Since the work planned over several months will prevent the movement of vehicles at times, the Municipality had to find a solution so that the collection of waste can still be done.It has therefore agreed to install common bins that can be used by both downtown businesses and citizens living there.Twelve drop off points have been identified between Sherbrooke St.and Merry North and at each location there will be two containers (waste and recycling) and a compost bin.The latter will be equipped with wheels to facilitate use.The City is aware that this change will require a period of adaptation.To ensure that sorting is respected, users will be assisted in the process.\"There are goals behind this approach.For example, we want to achieve a recovery rate of at least 70 per cent, which is still a lot.Our desire is also to increase the amount of organic matter.By grouping the collections in this way, we will reduce the number of trucks and, by the same token, greenhouse gas emissions,\" explained President of the Advisory Committee on the environment Diane Pelletier.For the first year, the containers will be placed temporarily.However, if results are conclusive and the locations chosen are appropriate, the containers will be installed in such a way as to limit the visual impact.\"They will probably be half buried, like those next to the new ambulance barracks.We looked at burying them completely, but it's much more expensive.With the semi-buried method, it is possible to make small arrangements for it to be cleaner.But obviously, it's still containers and not flower boxes,\" Pelletier said.The project will cost $94,000 and a grant application for $44,000 has been submitted to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities.For 2019, the bill will be entirely assumed by the City.By Jim Davies Professor, Institute of Cognitive Science, Carleton University Dear Parent, Santa here.I know this season has been hard.Your eight-year-old looked at you baldfaced and said I wasn\u2019t real.How can this be?Is the innocence and magic already gone?It seems like just yesterday they were so easily convinced that crumbs on the plate were irrefutable evidence that I\u2019d been there.And they have no respect for how hard I work to make my handwriting look just like yours! No matter that you never got a chance to tell them I don\u2019t exist.Most children come to that conclusion themselves.But don\u2019t worry about your kids too much.Coming to disbelieve in Santa is not particularly distressing for them.You, like many parents, are actually sadder than your kids are about it.And they probably won\u2019t blame you for having told them I exist, either.Kids who no longer believe in me think that other kids should be encouraged to.Research suggests not many children over the age of seven-and-a-half believe in Santa.And a little happiness can\u2019t hurt, particularly in light of evidence that people are less happy around Christmastime, (with the exception of devout Christians).Parenting is tough these days.I don\u2019t get a lot of news up here in the North Pole, though we\u2019ve gotten a lot more since Mrs.Claus talked the elves into using pixie-dust to make a rocking horse that functions as an Amazon Echo.But from the little news we get, we can tell that people are super-judgmental about every decision you make, including your decision to (or not to) tell your kids to believe in Santa Claus.Some Christians think Santa strengthens consumption as religion.Indeed, like the gods of religions, I do have \u201cstrategic knowledge\u201d about what your kids do that is good and bad, paying more attention to moral issues than anything else (I don\u2019t pay any attention to you, parents, so don\u2019t worry about clearing your browser history, ho ho ho!).But the similarity of believing in me to believing in the gods of religions is tenuous, because I have failed to attract a substantial community of true believers.Your skeptical kids are not alone.Not many people over the age of seven-and- a-half believe in Santa Claus.Some think that telling kids about me is lying, and destroys trust, but there\u2019s no evidence that that happens.In fact, there isn\u2019t any scientific evidence that believing in me is harmful in any way.But belief might have some benefits: kids are more generous after talking about me (versus when they talk about pets or the Easter Bunny).But it\u2019s unclear whether bringing up Santa promotes good behaviour.So if your kids stopped believing, or if they never did, it probably doesn\u2019t matter much either way.But don\u2019t be too sad.Just because a sleigh ride ends doesn\u2019t mean it wasn\u2019t fun, does it?Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night, Santa Claus Jim Davies does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organisation that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their academic appointment.EDITORIAL Page 6 Wednesday , December 19, 2018 newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com The Record No matter that you never got a chance to tell them I don\u2019t exist.Most children come to that conclusion themselves.Letters The science of saying goodbye to Santa 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 STEPHEN BLAKE CORRESP.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 The Record welcomes your letters to the editor.Please limit your letters to 300 words.We reserve the right to edit for length, clarity, legality and taste.Please ensure there is a phone number or email where you can be reached, to confirm authorship and current town/city of residence.Names will not be withheld but the address and phone number of the writer are not published, except by request.Preference is given to writers from the Eastern Townships.Common waste collection in downtown Magog Local Sports Meanwhile, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers signed two of their 2018 draft picks -

Meanwhile, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers signed two of their 2018 draft picks - offensive linemen Matthew Ouellet De Carlo and Ben Koczwara.De Carlo played university football at Bishop's University in Sherbooke Que., while Koczwara is a Waterloo product.Elsewhere, the Edmonton Eskimos signed two Americans - defensive back Robert Priester and defensive lineman Damani Mosby.Ottawa Senators owner Melnyk facing counterclaim for more than $1 billion The Canadian Press The battle between Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk and business partner John Ruddy over a proposed new downtown arena has escalated.Ruddy and Trinity Development Group Inc., are seeking more than $1 billion in damages from Melnyk and Capital Sports Management Inc., after filing a counterclaim on Tuesday.Last month, Melnyk filed a $700-mil- lion lawsuit against Ruddy, Trinity and others after the two sides couldn't come to terms on a plan to redevelop land at LeBreton Flats, which was slated to include a new NHL arena as well as other developments.In the counterclaim, Trinity calls Mel- nyk's lawsuit \u201cmeritless'' and says \u201cthe claim against John Ruddy is especially scandalous.'' It goes on to say \u201cCSMI's and Melnyk's true aim is to have the City of Ottawa or Trinity fund and build the $500 million Event Centre for the Ottawa Senators hockey team, with the Senators getting 30 years' free rent.CSMI also wants the valuable naming rights and an unreasonable degree of control over the Le- Breton project.'' Melnyk's group, in its lawsuit, claimed Trinity was developing an adjacent property that was in direct competition with LeBreton.The National Capital Commission, the crown corporation that controls the land at LeBreton, said last month that the Melnyk-Ruddy RendezVous LeBreton group had until January to resolve internal partnership issues, or it would look for other options to develop the site.Ruddy, in a statement, said he hopes to continue working on LeBreton.\u201cLet me be clear, I am committed to moving this project forward,'' he said.\u201cThe vision we've brought forward is the right one.I will work with the NCC, the City of Ottawa, and the community at large to advance solutions that will make this project a reality, and avoid losing these important lands for another generation.'' The Senators currently play in the Canadian Tire Centre in Kanata, well outside the Ottawa downtown core.

vacation or just want to veg out, I need a break.Now I\u2019m hearing that this is really bad for your metabolism, especially as you get older.Seriously?Taking a couple of weeks off really makes that much difference?Dear Reader: We\u2019re sorry to rain on your hammock time, but the newest research suggests that yes, taking as little as a two-week break from your regular exercise routine has negative health effects for older adults that can be long-lasting.This new insight comes from two recent studies that looked at what happened when physically active adults stopped exercising, even for a short time.Among the ill effects was a rise in blood sugar levels, a drop in insulin sensitivity and weight gain.As though that wasn\u2019t enough bad news, it turned out that even after the study participants returned to their regular exercise regimens, the metabolic changes were slow to fully reverse.A study conducted by researchers from the University of Liverpool in England looked at a group of 45 men and women between the ages of 24 and 50 who were quite active.They each walked more than 10,000 steps per day, did not have diabetes and were metabolically fit.When the study participants were asked to suddenly cut down on their exercise and begin sitting for at least 3 1/2 hours per day, their metabolisms changed.Over the course of the two weeks that the participants slowed down \u2014 their activity monitors logged under 2,000 steps per day \u2014 their blood sugar spiked, they showed signs of insulin resistance, and their blood lipid results started to become distinctly less healthy.Not only did they lose muscle mass in their legs, they gained fat around their middles.Although most of them recovered their lost ground when they began to exercise again, several of the participants showed ongoing signs of insulin resistance.A second study from Canada\u2019s McMaster University focused on adults aged 65 and older.In that study, the participants were also active, walking between 7,000 and 8,000 steps per day.However, in this case, they all had elevated blood sugar levels, which put them at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.As with the Liverpool study, these adults were asked to drastically reduce their activity levels to below 1,000 steps per day, and to spend several hours sitting.They suffered the same ill-effects as their younger peers, but more quickly and more severely.In fact, the sudden lack of exercise pushed some participants dangerously close to developing Type 2 diabetes, and they had to stop their participation in the study.Another difference between this group and the younger participants is that even after resuming normal activity for two weeks, most had not made up the metabolic ground lost to their enforced inactivity.Yes, these are small studies, and more research is needed.But based on conclusions thus far, it appears that when we stop being active for weeks at a time, we pay a significant price.Eve

exercise may be detrimental to your health WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 19, 2018 Dear Annie: I don\u2019t want to continue to let two of my friends steal my time.One friend is the worst when it comes to this.She calls me at least twice a week.I believe that her husband does everything in the house \u2014 cooking, shopping and all the driving \u2014 because she has plenty of time to talk on the phone.This friend calls several other people, one after the other.I have told her I am always busy.I have a lot of grandchildren and great-grandchil- dren.I love them and care how they are doing.We call each other for a few minutes.We love to spend time with each other.I live alone.I cook, shop, do volunteer work once a week, read a bunch, watch a little TV, send get-well cards to the sick, see whether they need anything, etc.I have friends where I volunteer.I have friends at church.Time is so valuable.I like my time to count each day.I want to tell her she should call her grandchildren, read a book, watch a little TV.She shouldn\u2019t just sit on the phone.I am old \u2014 older than she is.I may not be here tomorrow.Is there something wrong with me that I want my time to count?It seems this one lady takes a lot of people\u2019s time.Doesn\u2019t she realize people are busy?I don\u2019t want to hear from her twice a week.I just don\u2019t.If she needed help or had a problem, I would help.But she just talks aimlessly.I would like to hear from her maybe once a month.Help! \u2014 No State, No Name Dear No State, No Name: Our time is our most precious resource, and you\u2019re wise to guard yours.But your friend is most likely lonely, so try not to let annoyance eclipse compassion when speaking with her about this issue.In a positive tone, share with her how time-consuming your daily routine, community activities and family relationships are, and let her know you\u2019re planning to spend more energy focusing on those things.Tell her you won\u2019t be around to talk so often but you\u2019ll still be thinking of her and be around if she needs you for anything serious.If she continues to call you just to pass the time, that\u2019s all right; you don\u2019t have to answer, and you don\u2019t have to feel guilty or angry about it, either.Dear Annie: I just read the letter from \u201cPut-Out Neighbor,\u201d whose neighbor\u2019s cats keep spraying on her property even though she\u2019s tried just about everything to deter them.I have two more ideas for her to try.She could buy motion-activated sensors that trigger water to spray or a horn to sound.She could aim this around the problem areas.I saw this on \u201cMy Cat From Hell,\u201d and it worked well.It didn\u2019t take long for the cats to steer clear.Another idea for her inside cats is to use sight blockers so her cats cannot see the cats outside.I hope this helps.\u2014 A Fellow Cat Person Dear Fellow Cat Person: I hadn\u2019t heard of any of these tricks! It sounds as if \u201cPut-Out Neighbor\u201d is ready to try anything to solve this problem, so I imagine she will give these a go.Thank you for writing.\u201cAsk Me Anything: A Year of Advice From Dear Annie\u201d is out now!

Talk bringlish on defense too By Phillip Alder Two days ago, I reviewed \u201cThe Language of Bridge\u201d by Kit Woolsey (Bridge Winners Press).It won Book of the Year from the International Bridge Press Association.Woolsey has three world titles and 19 national championships to his name.He recommends analyzing using Bringlish: bridge English.He applies it to 11 chapters on bidding and one on defense.In this deal from that last chapter\u2019s quiz, look at only the North and East hands.South is in four spades.After West leads the diamond queen, how should East plan the defense?South might have rebid three no- trump, but that contract can also be defeated.His four-spade rebid is certainly textbook.When dummy comes down, ask yourself from where you may get the tricks that you need.Here, East should hope that he and his partner collect two hearts, one diamond and one club.At first glance, that seems easy.South wins trick one, draws trumps and takes the club finesse.East wins that trick and underleads his diamond king to put West on play, and West shifts to a heart.What could possibly go wrong?South should set a nasty trap for West by ducking the first trick.Then, if West leads a second diamond, he cannot get back on play for the critical heart lead.South will win six spades, one diamond and three clubs.East must anticipate that sneaky duck by declarer, discouraging in diamonds by playing his two.Then, if West trusts his partner, he will shift immediately to a heart."]
