SHERBROOKE rkers at the Blue Mountain Wallcovering plant in Sherbrooke walked off the job Monday morning after unsuccessful negotiations with the company.At a meeting on Feb.9, workers rejected the company\u2019s final offer by 94 per cent and renewed a five-day strike mandate it had issued its leadership last September.There have been 14 negotiating sessions, many of which held in the presence of a conciliator, the two sides are at an impasse, according to CSN de l\u2019Estrie president Denis Beaudin.The 25 workers at the plant have been without a contract since December of 2011.Soil decontamination still not done SHERBROOKE econtamination of the land around a former Irving oil depot is still not complete, more than two years after the beginning of work.The Ministry of the Environment is being patient in this case even though a new schedule set last year has not been respected.\u201cThey have about four weeks of work to complete the rehabilitation of the land,\u201d says Renée Plamondon, regional spokesperson for the Ministry of the Environment.Work is likely to resume in the spring, after the thaw.In the meantime, the Department will not issue a notice of violation against the company, which is no longer using the depot located at the corner of Hertel and Quatre-Pins.A year ago, the Department issued a notice of violation because Irving Oil\u2019s decontamination of the land, begun in the fall of 2010, was not completed in a timely manner.The second and final phase of the work should have been completed no later than July 2011.The company was then engaged to finalize the project by the end of 2012.When work is completed, some 8,000 tons of soil from the 170,000 sq.ft.property will have been decontaminated, which is equivalent to about 500 ten- wheel trucks filled to the brim.The transaction is expected to cost more than half a million dollars.In 2010, the company failed, in its attempt to remove the residential status of the land, which would have allowed it to decontaminate under less stringent criteria.If the city had acceded to this request, about half of the contaminated soil could remain in place.The municipal authorities refused to reclassify the land as they want the King Street West property, next to Sherbrooke Honda, for residential purposes.According to an analysis prepared in 2007, the soil and groundwater are contaminated with hydrocarbons.At the time, the Ministry and Irving had assured that the contaminants do not pose a risk to the Magog River, located 150 metres from the property.The study, undertaken by Inspect-Sol, however, indicated that some of the contaminated groundwater in the area of one of the observation wells \u201cwould be intercepted by the sewer on Hertel St.The groundwater not intercepted flows into the Magog River.\u201d When the decontamination of the site is completed, monitoring of groundwater quality will be carried out for at least two years.Pope Benedict CONT'D FROM PAGE 1 which in the last few months, has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me.\u201d At the time he was chosen to be Pope in April of 2005, the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger of Germany was the oldest new pope in nearly 300 years, at 78 years old.Eligibility to become pope ends at 80, so in some ways yesterday's move is not surprising, despite the fact that the last time a pope abdicated the position was nearly 600 years ago, and under very different circumstances.According to the Vatican, only four out of the 260 men who have acted as Pope have ever abdicated the position.Locally, there is surprise, but also a sense that the move is justified.\u201cIn these days Bishops retire at 75,\u201d said FatRer Pierre Doyon of St.Patrick\u2019s Catholic Church in Sherbrooke, \u201cIt\u2019s a surprise, certainly, but I think also a wise move.\u201d Doyon spoke of the leadership of the Roman Catholic Church as being a heavy cross to bear, saying that as Benedict came to this decision after personal reflection and meditation, it is certainly the right decision.The decision comes just before the beginning of the Christian season of Lent, a busy time for the Pope.While there is a veritable media frenzy underway regarding the news of abdication and the inevitable selection of a new pope, the process, which is quite extensive, has yet to begin.Magog continues River Road upgrade e Town of Magog has an- metre stretch of the River Road.The sec- pleted last summer, near the Cep

article published on Monday, Feb 11, the names City makes progress on pension deficits e city of Sherbrooke may have Tamed a corner with regard to eliminating the deficits of municipal employee pension funds with better-than-expected returns on investments brightening a formerly gloomy picture.Over the last two years, returns have exceeded the 6 per cent rate targeted, helping to relieve pressure from a 2010 total deficit of $89 million, costing the City some $9 million a year.In 2012, the yield reached 9.4 per cent for the municipal employee plan, and 10.65 per cent for the police fund, said city treasurer, Francois Poulette.This is about 50 per cent higher than the target rate of 6 per cent set during the last actuarial study in 2010.In addition, the City developed a strategy for repayment of the actuarial deficits that seems to be working.In short, it borrowed money at very low interest rates to repay a portion of the actuarial deficit in one shot.The City has also recently issued bonds totaling $38 million.Poulette expected a borrowing rate of 3.5 per cent, but was able to obtain 2.48 per cent guaranteed for an average of 4.8 years.This $38 million will be paid into the actuarial deficits in 2013, in addition to the annual payments of approximately $9 million.If the performance of pension funds for 2013 amounts to 6 per cent, the City will save $1.3 million by proceeding in this way.Assuming a yield of 9 per cent, the savings will rise to $2.6 million.The next actuarial study is expected in late 2013.COOKSHIRE FAIR ANNUAL MEETING of the girls did not

online T= Coalition Trifluvienne pour une Eau Très Saine.(C.T.E.T.S.) in collaboration with the Regroupement de citoyen(ne)s pour une eau saine à Richmond is continuing the campaign against water fluoridation despite the decision by Richmond council to con- \u201ctinue the controversial practice.The two groups have begun a petition on the National Assembly website asking \u201cthe government to organize a parliamentary committee on the issue to shed light on the scientific, health, economic and legal aspects of the issue and to make a decision on the demand to an end to the fluoridation of drinking water program currently espoused by the government.Last February, Trois-Rivieres city council decided, in a 10-6 split vote, to continue the fluoridation of their drinking water, as did Richmond last week.In Trois Rivières, the coalition claims, the population was never consulted.In Richmond, the decision was made primarily as a result of financial penalties the province would impose if fluoridation were discontinued.Current government policy is to ensure that at least half of the Quebec population had access to fluoridated water by 2012, a project that has been extended to 2014, largely the result of local resistance to the objective.More information concerning this controversy is available on the Action Fluor Québec website: www.qve.qc.cajafqfafq.htm.Interested citizens are encouraged to take a few minutes to sign the petition, regardless of whether or not they live in a city that is fluoridated.\u201cDespite the very political nature of this issue, it\u2019s important that citizens voices are heard.Therefore, anyone who has an email address can sign the petition once, regardless of age and it is not even necessary to live in Quebec,\u201d says Jean-Francois Gaudette, spokesperson for the CTETS.The petition is available at the following address until Feb.20, 2013: https://www.assnat.qc.ca/fr/exprimez- votre-opinion/petition/Petition- 3465/index.html

2012 fundraising campaign yesterday, having received $255,000 from the community, representing 85 per cent of its $300,000 goal.Local municipalities contributed $118,000, 24 companies have offered sponsorships worth $54,860 and 64 individuals have contributed $35,720.In addition, there is the non-recurring $37,000 contributed by the Board of Directors of Trolley Magog in the dissolution of that organization.Fund President Vicki May Hamm, announced that \u201cWe are obviously pleased with these results because we are very close to the goal.It\u2019s almost a half-million dollars that the Fund has managed to collect over two years.Moreover, for the five years of the campaign, businesses, municipalities and individuals have committed amounts close to a million.\u201d \u201cWe had hoped to get there by year two and we have shown that those who signed a donation or sponsorship for five years have lived up to their commitments.The nice surprise is that many donors and sponsors renewed their committed contribution in 2012, proof that they believe that the involvement of the media can make a difference\u201d said the Mayor of Magog.Hamm also thanked the Orford 911 organization, particularly Claude Gérin, who was the principal architect of the second season.\u201cHe has shown tremendous energy and you can see that his efforts have been successful and continues to be so in 2013 because we can already predict that new sponsors and donors will join our ranks,\u201d she adds.The press conference was also an opportunity to introduce participants to the co-chairs of the campaign in 2013.Danielle Bolduc, President of the Caisse Desjardins du Lac Mem- phremagog which has already given $40,000 in stimulus funds on a commitment of $100,000 over five years, and Lloyd

for his unwavering passion for \u201cthe mountain.\u201d He was also a major player in Orford 911 for which he worked hard and helped to increase the number of members to 3,000 people.He was also an early advocate of the creation of the Recovery Fund, firmly convinced that the community should contribute to infrastructure investments and promote the ski resort.\u201cHis leadership, determination and enthusiasm to our group is greatly missed but will remain an inspiration to us all,\u201d said Gérin, his friend and colleague on the Orford 911 board.Hamm finished by launching the start of the 2013 campaign and urged businesses and individuals to contribute fully now that they are assured that we have a \u201cconscientious and efficient manager and all amounts paid by the Fund are invested in capital that enhances the competitiveness of the ski hill and can lead to new prosperity.We are already hard at work for 2013 and we will soon have great news to announce,\u201d she added.Those

th the proposed legislative NV \u201canses of Bill 14 threatening to oppress the already fragile English-speaking community, Town- shippers\u2019 Association has voiced its concern in a brief filed to the Quebec National Assembly\u2019s Committee on Culture and Education.Introduced to the provincial government last December, Bill 14: An Act to amend the Charter of the French language, the Charter of human rights and freedoms and other legislative provisions proposes several amendments to Quebec\u2019s French language charter, which would primarily affect statutes and regulations governing the use of language in businesses, educational institutions and municipalities.In its brief, Townshippers\u2019 Association has expressed its considered opinion that, if adopted \u201cas is,\u201d Bill 14 will further weaken the minority English- speaking populace, such as that living in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, causing them to feel even more disenfranchised from their roots and identity.The Association is calling on the National Assembly to recognize the historical and contemporary contributions of English-speaking communities throughout Quebec, from those with ancestral ties to more recent immigrants, who each enhance the fabric of this great province.Bill 14 will be submitted to public hearings beginning on March 12, 2013.Townshippers\u2019 Association is a nonprofit, non-partisan community organization that has been serving of the English-speaking community of the historical Eastern Townships, since 1979.Source: Corrinna Pole Sherbrooke Roadwork Wellington

encourage them to invest more in our economy.How far can a government go in jeopardizing a private company\u2019s competiveness?By Yves-Thomas Dorval the Québec government and Air Canada following the closure of Aveos in 2012, the courts are charged with the task of determining whether the company - even though it still currently employs more than 2,400 people to maintain its airplanes, including 750 in Montréal - is respecting the obligations stipulated in the law.This raises some crucial questions: To what extent does a law, however well-intentioned it might be, need to go to jeopardize a private company\u2019s competitiveness, and what role should the government play to encourage the maintaining and creation of jobs?According to the information we have, when Aveos was founded in 2004, Air Canada seemed to have made considerable efforts in helping the business to develop the airplane maintenance market by providing financial support, among other things, and by awarding the company various maintenance contracts for its airplanes.These contracts should have helped to ensure the financial stability Aveos needed so it could develop its own business model by diversifying its clientele.As with any private company, Aveos\u2019s success was at that point dependent on its ability to effectively compete in the marketplace through the quality of its services and its price for such services.One must admit, however, that over the years Aveos has been unable I: the legal proceedings between self among the leaders of this niche market and specific clientele.The fact Aveos was unable to diversify its clientele shows it probably wasn\u2019t competitive and, as a result, Air Canada was paying more than it would have if it had been doing business with other suppliers.And this brings us to the basic question we asked in the title, a question which on the one hand raises the crucial issue of companies\u2019 competitiveness and, on the other hand, the role the government should play in this regard.It should be noted there is strong competition in the airplane services industry; companies\u2019 profit margins are extremely thin and the risk factors are ever-present.An airline carrier\u2019s competitiveness depends a great deal on its ability to strictly control its operating costs.While no one disputes that the government has an important role to play in maintaining and creating jobs, should it go as far as taking legal action against a company so the company carries on with unprofitable business activities?It would seem that questions need to be raised about what legislative changes and courses of action are to be undertaken by our governments.Beyond the good intentions, we have to face economic reality.By their actions our governments must, first and foremost, foster companies\u2019 competitiveness and encourage them to invest more in our economy, in a perspective of collaboration and business\u2019 partnership, rather than one of legal constraint.to remain competitive and has failed Yves-Thomas Dorval is President to solidly and sustainably position it- of the Quebec Employers Council.-\u2014\u2014\" mme PRINT SUBSCRIPTIONS RECORD

of $27,485 in personal debt.This follows the largest annual increase of personal debt since 2009.As someone who detests owing anybody anything, this is rather disturbing to me.And this is just the tip of the iceberg.It gets much worse, and there are no signs of it getting better.Consider public debt for instance.The national debt is a whopping 605 billion dollars.Your share is $17,000.The provincial debt is another 253 billion dollars.Your share of this is $55,000.If Quebec were a sovereign country, it would be the 5th most indebted nation in the world.It grows over 20 million dollars per day.In 2010, municipal debt in Quebec was 21 billion dollars.Using the same ratio as the previous figure, your share of that is about $4,500.According to my calculations, your share of public debt as a Quebec resident and income earner is approximately $77,000.If anything, my estimation is conservative as some of these figures are outdated.Add to this amount your personal debt.Add to that amount the unfunded liabilities of public pensions.Consider then the rising costs of health care as the population ages, and the devaluing of our currency due to inflationary policies.We have yet to feel the pain of our reckless borrowing and spending, but the day of reckoning is rapidly approaching.The bottom line is this: we will never pay our debts.The time will come when even making the minimum payment will be too much.Interest rates will have to rise, and we would have exhausted all available credit.A form of default is bound to occur.Whether default is declared or not is another question.Will we default on our creditors?Will we default on our promises (pensions, health care, day care, education)?Perhaps both?In any case it won't be pretty.Student reactions last spring to a proposed increase in tuition fees don\u2019t leave me hopeful.What if the cuts are much worse and a part of a larger series of cuts?This will be a true test of our moral character.Will we band together among friends, families, and communities?Or will there be social unrest?In our anger will we enviously blame the rich?Will we seek to steal their fortunes in an ill-fated at- I: was recently reported that Canadi- tempt to pay for our beloved social programs?These controversies are already taking place all over the world.This problem is generations in the making and it requires careful analysis.We can definitely blame governments for excessive spending, corruption, poor management of public funds, and for not being up front with us.We can blame central banks for artificially low interest rates and inflationary policies.But we must.we must also look at ourselves and acknowledge our role in creating this mess.In our prosperity we have become complacent.We've ignored the recklessness knowing that the problems would be dealt with at a later date.We've welcomed and embraced an unsustainable welfare-state and a centrally planned economy wherein government is our benevolent caretaker.We've handed power over to those who promise free stuff, well knowing that nothing is truly free.And many of us have added to our troubles by mismanaging our private wealth and by believing that excessive debt is acceptable.Liberty is not a treasured value in our society.Perhaps we should consider what it has to offer.In the full knowledge that man is flawed and is thus unable to create the perfect society, liberty offers a different form of government.Its main role is to protect our individual liberties, allowing us to take care of ourselves.In it we are free to seek a better condition.It allows us to take risks and to fully assume the benefits or consequences.It allows market forces to work freely, without the mal-investment asso ciated with massive government, keeping prices down through healthy competition.It restores the value of individual responsibility.Some would argue that this form of governance is uncompassionate.The opposite is true.Massive government is what's leading to our impoverishment.More freedom leads to more wealth, and more wealth benefits everyone.Private wealth is much more efficient at helping the less fortunate through jobs, nonprofit organizations, trust funds, and philanthropy.Government extraction of wealth from productive society is a hindrance, especially when we know that it leads to poorly delivered services, wasteful bureaucracies, corruption, and the bondage of monstrous debt we now face.KEVIN RICHARD KATEVALE.DEAR EDITOR: T= February 5 à 7 from Jeune Chambre de Commerce de Sherbrooke was greeted with

Special to The Record ormer Bishop\u2019s Gaiters football head coach Leroy Blugh is moving on to the CFL.Blugh, who led the Gaiters from 2005-2010, was named the defensive line coach for the Edmonton Eskimos on Monday.Blugh, one of the most decorated players in Gaiters history, returns to the CFL club where he spent most of his 15-year playing career.Blugh spent 11 seasons with the Eskimos, winning the CFL\u2019s Most Oustanding Canadian Award in 1996, and a Grey Cup in 1993, and was twice named to the CFL West Division All-Star team.As a coach, he was named the Quebec University

drive to a provincial title Sunday afternoon when they recorded a convincing 85-71 win over the Concordia Stingers in a game that was originally scheduled to be played last Friday night but was rescheduled because of the weekend storm.The win allowed the Gaiters to remain in a tie with the McGill Redmen for first place in the RSEQ with identical 94 records, two games ahead of the third- place Stingers.The visitors jumped out to a quick 11- 2 lead but the Gaiters settled down and took their first lead of the game, 20-18, when Tim Hunter drained a three pointer.Bishop\u2019s held a slim two-point advantage at halftime and put the game out of reach in the second half when a 24-10 run provided Bishop's with a dou- ble-digit lead they would not relinquish.Jeremy Leonard-Smith paced the Gaiter attack with a 23-point, six-re- bound performance while Mike Andrews added 20 points and 10 rebounds.Point guard Scott Ring overcame early foul trouble to score 12 points and register a

doubleheader beginning at 6 p.m.They wrap up the regular season with a pair of road games, this Friday night at McGill and the following Thursday, February 21 at Concordia.The women suffered a 6945 loss to the second-place Stingers.As in previous games the Gaiters played hard for 40 minutes but a lack of execution proved costly as they committed 30-turnovers and were outrebounded

oF pa os ASK DOCTOR K by Anthony L.Komaroff, M.D.Natural sources of sweetness are better than | artificial DEAR DOCTOR K: I'm trying to lose weight, so I've switched to artificial sweeteners.But are they really a good alternative to sugar?DEAR READER: Sugar may be the most important dietary cause of obesity in America today.When you consume it as part of a whole food, such as fruit, it\u2019s digested along with other nutrients.These nutrients, such as fiber and antioxidants, help control sugar\u2019s effect in your body.But when you add table sugar to a food or beverage, it\u2019s stripped of these other nutrients.As a result, the sugar can cause spikes in your blood sugar and insulin.This can pave the way for heart disease, diabetes and liver damage.The FDA has approved five artificial sweeteners.These are acesulfame, aspartame, neotame, saccharin and su- cralose.(Plant-derived stevia is not counted in the same \u201cartificial sweetener\u201d category.) When artificial sweeteners were first introduced, there was concern that they might increase the risk of cancer.That has never been proven.But artificial sweeteners may cause headaches and other unpleasant reactions in some people.I have a number of patients who drink large amounts of sodas or soft drinks with artificial sweeteners each day.They don\u2019t take in many calories, but they sure take in a lot of gas \u2014 and their belly responds accordingly.It is not the artificial sweeteper that has made them belch, burp and other things.But it has encouraged them to \u201cgas up.\u201d Like you, most people use artificial sweeteners because they want to lose weight.And in the short term, artificial sweeteners may help to do just that.But there\u2019s concern that over the longer term, artificial sweeteners may actually promote weight gain.How so?Artificial sweeténers are hundreds to thousands of times sweeter than table sugar.If you get used to the mega sweetness of artificial sweeteners, then healthful, satisfying foods that are less sweet \u2014 such as fruits and vegetables \u2014 may not seem sweet enough.You might then respond by not eating enough of these healthy foods.We have more information on healthy food choices in our Special Health Report, \u201cHealthy Eating: A Guide to the New Nutrition.\u201d You can find out more about it at my website, AskDoc- torK.com.We describe in detail what foods are healthy and what foods are not.We also teach you how healthy eating can easily be delicious, as well.If artificial sweeteners are helping you lose weight right now, that\u2019s great.But over time, try to lessen your dependence on them.Instead, go for fresh fruit and other natural sources of sweetness TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2013 Universal Uclick Almanac Today is the 43rd day of 2013 and the 54th day of winter.TODAY'S HISTORY: In 1554, Lady Jane Grey, who reigned over England for nine days in 1553, was beheaded.In 1909, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was founded in New York City.In-1999, the U.S.Senate voted to acquit President Bill Clinton on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice, bringing his impeachment trial to a close.In 2008, General Motors offered buyouts to its more than 70,000 union workers after posting a $39 billion loss in 2007.TODAY'S BIRTHDAYS: Charles Darwin (1809-1882), scientist; Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865), 16th U.S.president; Franco Zeffirelli (1923-), director; Bill and DEADLINES: ANNOUNCEMENTS & NOTICES 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: classad@sherbrookerecord.com - They will not be taken by phone.DEADLINES FOR DEATH NOTICES: For Monday's paper, call 818-569-4856 between 1 p.m.and 5 p.m.Sunday.For Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday's 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.Russell (1934 ), basketball player; Judy Blume (1938- ), writer; Arsenio Hall (1956- ), actor/comedian; Josh Brolin (1968- ), actor; Darren Aronofsky (1969- ), filmmaker; Christina Ricci (1980), actress; Robert Griffin III (1990- ), football player.TODAY'S SPORTS: In 1878, Harvard baseball player Frederick Thayer received a patent for the catcher\u2019s mask.TODAY'S FACT: Charles Darwin replaced Charles Dickens on Britain\u2019s 10- pound note in 2000, reportedly in part because Darwin's beard would make forgery more difficult.TODAY'S QUOTE: \u201c Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man\u2019s character, give him power.\u201d \u2014 Abraham Lincoln TODAY'S NUMBER: 207,000 \u2014 workers employed worldwide by General Motors in 2012.TODAY'S MOON: Between new moon (Feb.10) and first quarter moon (Feb.17).4 $25.00 ($28.74 taxes included) WITH PHOTO: $35.00 ($40.24 taxes included) ae The Record | production@sherbrookerecord.com TUESDAY, February 12, 2013 Page 9 CELEBRITY CIPHER ALLEY OoP by Luis Campos ry pean THE Mh Ce aro ph Sas or sn Pe rent WASNT HURT YOU, OÙ PAL!

mr The Record | newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com TUESDAY,February 12, 2013 Page 11 Your Birthday TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2013 In coming months, you are likely to develop a closer involvement with a loyal friend who has a great deal of clout in a number of areas.This person\u2019s popularity will result in some exciting new friendships.AQUARIUS (jan.20-Feb.19) \u2014 Small factors could have more significance than usual in your commercial or financial dealings.All those pennies you save or make will really add up.PISCES (Feb.20-March 20) \u2014 Even though you might not be aware of the weight that your words carry, your thoughts and suggestions will have a strong, constructive impact on persons with whom you're involved.ARIES (March 21-April 19) \u2014 Certain confidential information you become privy to can be used to everyone\u2019s advantage, especially yours.It behooves you to keep it to yourself for the time being.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) \u2014 Try to associate with friends whose views and opinions parallel yours.Valuable information can be exchanged through a number of frank discussions.\u2018GEMINI (May 21-June 20) \u2014 You're likely to discover that if confronted by a challenge, you'll be able to work it out much quicker in front of an appreciative audience than you would alone.CANCER (June 21-July 22) \u2014 It\u2019s important that you treat any team effort extremely seriously, whether it involves a sport or a business.Your opponents will be playing to win, so you had better | be as well.LEO (July 23-Aug.22) \u2014 If you've been anxious to get the support of someone about a change that you\u2019d like to make, this is the day to do it.Spell out all the details, even the unattractive ones.VIRGO (Aug.23-Sept.22) \u2014 This could turn out to be a rather successful day, because you'll not only have good ideas, you'll know how to implement them in ways that improve present conditions.LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23) \u2014 Small gains have a way of adding up, so don\u2019t get discouraged if the initial returns aren\u2019t up to your expectations.Consistency will prove to be more important in the long run.SCORPIO (Oct.24-Nov.22) \u2014 It isn't likely that spontaneous involvements will generate much pleasure for you.You're apt to find far more enjoyment in well-planned activities.SAGITTARIUS (Nov.23-Dec.21) \u2014 A great deal of valuable information can be attained by observing how a successful friend handles his or her relationships.The techniques used by your pal can be tailored to fit you.CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) \u2014 If you decide to pay a surprise visit to an old friend whom you haven't seen in a long time, you'll be welcomed.Your pal will be glad for the opportunity to catch up.TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2013 One suit may tell about another by Phillip Alder Friedrich Schiller, a German poet, philosopher, historian and playwright who died in 1805, said, \u201cIt is easy to give advice from a port of safety.\u201d That would also be easy for me to say.Some declarers, though, instead of working safely in port to make their contract, take risks on the high seas of bad distribution.In this example deal, South is in three.no-trump.West leads the heart eight (top of nothing), East wins with his king and shifts to the diamond queen.West correctly wins with his king and returns the 10, East overtaking with his jack.South ducks and wins the next diamond, West and dummy discarding hearts.How should South continue?North\u2019s two-club rebid was New Minor Forcing, indicating at least game- invitational values and asking South to describe his hand further.Two no-trump denied three spades and four hearts.This auction kept dummy\u2019s heart suit hidden momentarily, but resulted in the most damaging defense.Yesterday we saw that when North rebid a game-forc- ing three hearts, West led a club, the unbid suit.Then South took a safety-play CROSSWORD North 02-12-13 à KQ1043 VQIJ106 5 &KQ7 West East

cash his club winners first.Here he learns that West started with four hearts (presumably), two diamonds and two clubs.He seems marked with five spades.So declarer cashes his spade ace and plays a

FEBRUARY 12, 2013 Dear Annie: Twenty years ago, my wife had an affair with a co-worker.It ended when he moved back to his home state 2,000 miles away.At the time, I asked my wife to go to counseling with me.We made it to one session before she pronounced our marriage \u201chealed.\u201d Sixteen months ago, out of the blue, this same guy contacted my wife via email, and they began communicating.I discovered they were planning to meet in Las Vegas.I begged her not to go, but she was convinced she loved him and had to know if they should be together.The month before her trip, I endured more pain than I've ever experienced.I set up counseling sessions for us with separate therapists, arranged a meeting with our pastor and lost 20 pounds from the stress.In the end, this creep flaked out on their Vegas rendezvous, probably because he couldn\u2019t see himself leaving his children for her.She also was reluctant to leave our kids.However, the breakup crushed her, and she initially refused to work on our marriage.Finally, we went to a joint counseling session, but when the therapist made reference to her \u201cprofound betrayal,\u201d that was that.My wife refuses to rehash what happened.I'm worried that the only reason she is recommitting to our Annie\u2019s Mailbox marriage is because the other man gave up on her.Things just don\u2019t feel the same.She insists she\u2019s done with this guy, but who really knows?Is it possible to move forward without dealing with the past?\u2014 Torn Up in California Dear Torn: Maybe, but not if your wife is using your marriage as her rebound relationship in order to soothe her heartbreak.That's a temporary commitment.Refusing to examine the reasons behind her vulnerability to the affair leaves open the possibility of repeating the betrayal \u2014 and this is undoubtedly what most worries you.You cannot force your wife to work on this, so please get counseling for yourself, on your own.You need to learn what you can live with.Dear Annie: Nobody ever addresses how someone\u2019s death affects the animals left behind.Dogs especially look forward to the return of their \u201cmaster\u201d each day with great anticipation.When my husband is away on vacation, our dogs wait at the door for hours and go through the same ritual each day until he returns.When a loved one dies, the pet has no comprehension that this person is not coming back.When one of our dogs has passed on, we always lovingly place them in an open box where the remaining animal can be alone with the deceased for at least a half-hour.That seems to help them understand and reach closure of some kind.Why can\u2019t we bring the animal to the funeral home or other appropriate setting and let the animal be with their friend one last time?It\u2019s the least we can do for our animal friends who give us unconditional love and companionship without asking for anything in return.\u2014 Rocky Mount, Va.Dear Va.: Some funeral homes allow dogs as \u201ccomfort animals\u201d for the bereaved.It is likely they would also permit an animal to attend a viewing before the service.It is certainly not an unreasonable request.Dear Annie: \u201cDon\u2019t Want a Contest\u201d feels his fiancee\u2019s 13-year-old son is jealous.Please tell him to back off.It is normal for a single mom and her son to have this sort of closeness, and the boy will grow out of it.My husband accepted my close relationship with my only child.My son would also sit in between us and want to snuggle in bed, but he came to accept my husband without resentment.My son died at age 15 from cancer.I never would have forgiven myself or my husband if I had missed out on one hug.\u2014 Understanding Mom HOOKED ON SCHOOL \\' DAYS LET\u2019S ENCOURAGE OUR
