Duh!

Never underestimate the power of perfect toast \u2014 not too dark, not too light, crispy, but no sharp edges that cut the roof of your mouth.I'm calming down just thinking about it.This toaster has gone through months of testing to be perfectly calibrated for maximum toasting satisfaction, with options for various breadstuffs.Most days, I just need toast, but bad days are bagel days.And I can count on my therapy toaster to be there.Believe me, I\u2019ve been frustrated by toasters in the past, toasters you don\u2019t dare turn your back on.And here is my card stating that am entitled to have my therapy toaster with me at all times, including in the workplace, at restaurants and on public transportation, but not in the bathtub.Who diagnosed me?I'm sorry, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s any of your business.I would appreciate if you would respect my privacy.And I wish everyone around me on this plane who has never known what its like to live with psychological needs that I certainly don\u2019t need a \u201cdoctor\u201d to \u201cdiagnose\u201d \u2014 I wish everyone would stop staring at me and think about how lucky they are not to need a therapy toaster in their lives.What do you mean it might as well be a therapy waffle maker?Don\u2019t be ridiculous: hinges are highly stress-inducing.No, this is my therapy toaster, and I would appreciate it if you would show a little sensitivity to my otherness from your position of privilege.Also: could you get me some English muffins?Fastern Townships Air Show and Fair Record Staff the Roland-Désourdy airport in Bromont last weekend to attend the third edition of the Eastern Townships Air Show and Fair, largest aerial event in the region to witness impressive aerial performances accompanied by more than 30 exhibitors at the Aero Emploi fair and the tarmac.\"I'm very proud of this third edition, said Board Chair Francois Dandenault.\u201cIt is, without a doubt, the best since the beginning of this great adventure.The organization is looking forward to pre- S ome 33,600 spectators gathered at senting the fourth edition which, hopefully, will once again exceed expectations.\" A successful air show The partnership with Aéro Emploi has enabled the event to establish a major networking event in the Quebec aeronautics sector that provides a unique opportunity for companies to meet future candidates and to reach a wider audience.Several SMEs from the region took part in the air show and the 30 job fair exhibitors received nearly 2,000 quality applications, from which more than 200 interviews were arranged.Several positions, such as aviation engineer, pilot, aircraft painter, and a number of others all represent in-demand jobs in the coming years.The air show was a perfect way to highlight and fill the aeronautics labor shortage.In 2018 Aerospace enthusiasts will be pleased to hear that a fourth edition will take place in 2018 and Air Show organizers will attend the International Council of Air Shows in Las Vegas to recruit internationally renowned performers for the coming show.The organizing committee 1s promising a high-caliber program in 2018, while taking care to analyze the points to review from this last edition.Ben by Daniel Shelton \u2014 % 2017 Daniel Shelton Distr bv MVVAM [' we PROMISED HOW BOLT TOMORROW?| WE CAN BE IMPULSIVE.RETER A AY DOCTOR'S | WE JUZ] HAVE TO PLAN REMEMBER?APPOINTMENT \u201d THE [AY AFTER?www.Dpencomicstrip.com GARPEN CLUB MEETING.p pressreader PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER PressReader.com +1 604 278 4604 COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW The Record newsroom(@sherbrookerecord.com THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 2017 Page 3 ILOCAL News It is also desirable to increase the supply linked to the sustainable mobility of staff and a budget of $500,000 annually has been set aside for these initiatives from parking revenues.CIUSSS fleet highlights sustainable travel Record Staff SHERBROOKE CIUSSS de l'Estrie -

consumers generally were attracted to it for its reliability and strong resale value.Is the manufacturer poised to stop the slide in sales with this new 2018 edition?We set out to answer that question with a test drive through Canada\u2019s smallest province.In three flavours Contrary to other players in this segment, Toyota has stuck with offering a V6 under the hood of its popular sedan.While it\u2019s true that Ford returned last year to that configuration with its V6 turbo offered in the Fusion, that move was not made with the intention of attracting mass-market consumers \u2014 unlike the Camry.The newly revised V6 also generates, for the first time, more than 300 hp - 301 to be exact \u2014 and a maximum torque of 267 1b-ft, the most ever by a naturally aspirated V6 in this category.The other, less sexy \u2014 and of course more affordable \u2014- option has just 4 cylinders, with the 2.5L engine bloc also naturally aspirated.And yet, this engine dubbed Direct Force holds its own against any other in the segment.It delivers more than-adequate horses (203, or 206 with the XSE version\u2019s dual exhaust) and torque (184 1b-ft, or 186 in the XSE) for a car this size.The two engine setups, which forego electric assistance, combine with an 8-speed automatic transmission that was just recently introduced in the Sienna and the 2018 Highlander, though the gear ratios have been tweaked for the Camry.Drivers can of course use the gear shifter or even paddle shifters in some cases to shift gears manually.As for the hybrid system, a technology that Toyota has extensive expertise in, the Japanese automaker has announced its intention of increasing the number of hybrids it sends out on the road; its objective is to have the hybrid versions account for 25% of the Camry\u2019s sales (for the current model, that percentage sits at 11%).This helps explain the considerable effort that has been put into boosting the car\u2019s driving dynamics.The hybrid still makes use of the same 2.5L 4-cylinder, but complements it with an electric motor fed by an upgraded battery bloc.As a result the net power generated by the hybrid powertrain is now 208 hp, with an official fuel consumption rating of 4.9L/100 km.It\u2019s worth noting that the type of batteries used in the car differs depending on the trim chosen.The Camry LE hybrid is fitted with lithium-ion batteries, while the SE and XLE versions are powered by more compact and lightweight Nickel Hyper Prime NiMh batteries.In all trims, the batteries are now placed under the rear row of seats, which means owners can finally make use of a fully foldable rear row to gain cargo space.The Camry hybrid powertrain is wedded to a CVT transmission.The importance of the interior.Another area Toyota\u2019s mid-size sedan needs to excel in is the quality of its interior.For the eighth generation of the model, the presentation of the cabin is decidedly less austere and more expressive.The dashboard, its centre console all angular lines, may frighten more conservative consumers somewhat, but in return I salute the verve and innovation manifested here, which isn\u2019t something that could always be said of the Toyota Camry.While the design may leave room for debate, the small size of the knobs is definitely a disappointment.And yet the manufacturer had for years been conscientious about making buttons of ade quate size.Consumers who swear by the Camry certainly won\u2019t be put off by this, but in daily use it does become irritating.In any case, the overall impression the cabin gives is one of quality.If Toyota was serious about making a splash with the rejuvenated driving dynamics of its mid-size sedan, it also needed to make sure the driver\u2019s seat is ergonomically sound and comfortable \u2014 and it is.The seats of the new Camry are soft enough to make longer road trips a pleasant experience, while still being suf ficiently sculpted to hold occupants in place when cornering.Even the steering wheel is comfortable to grip, and the commands mounted on it are easy to use \u2014 which too often is not the case.The 2018 Camry cannot anymore be considered a mere mid-range mass-market sedan, even if sales of the model may PHOTO: V.AUBE approach that level, because for one thing the level of included and available equipment has once again been upgraded.Among them are available heads-up display, smartphone recharging, large-sized screen displays, a bird\u2018s-eye view monitor (ideal for parking in tight spaces) and even the first inclusion in a Toyota vehicle of the Entune 3.0 system.The latter continues a number of applications that of varying degrees of usefulness to drivers depending on their requirements.The service is offered for free for a three-year period, after which members will need to pay a monthly fee to benefit from the Entune applications.On the road: the hybrid version shines Has Toyota succeeded in providing motorists with an enhanced driving experience aboard the new Camry?In one word, yes.From the get-go, it\u2019s clear from driving the sedan that the steering is heavier and noticeably more connected to the road.What\u2019s more, the rigidity of the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) chassis makes it superior to its predecessor.Firmer than before, the suspension does not make for an uncomfortable ride \u2014 on the contrary - but it does give the sedan a nimbleness that is new to the model.Toyota even went so far to bring along to the PEI road test two 2017 Camrys, just for comparison.Though the acceleration is not earth-shat- tering, the 4-cylinder-equipped version acquits itself quite well in this regard.The gearbox, meanwhile, is a model of transparency.With the exception of a few steep hills that necessitated a climb in RPMs, the unit remained quite discreet.For its part, the V6 is made to measure for motorists who like muscular acceleration.Not only is the sound produced by the 6 cylinders more inspiring to hear when bearing down on the gas pedal, but accelerations themselves are also crisper.The additional weight bearing on the front axle is noticeable, but in general this version will please old-school drivers.This is probably why Toyota retained the V6 for this generation of the model in the first place.It\u2019s an open question, though, whether it will survive when the next generation comes down the pike.The biggest surprise we registered during our initial PEL road test was definitely regarding the hybrid.Toyota Chief Engineer Masato Katsumuta has said that a lot of effort went into improving the car\u2019s reaction during accelerations.and it shows! The hybrid is just more fun to drive than before, even with the often- derided CVT transmission.Of course, this version of the Camry is also the most frugal - fuel consumption hovers around 51/100 km.With a starting price of $26,390 for the Camry L, total cost for the car can easily climb to $40,000 or more.With a wide range of colours, trims and engine set-ups on the menu, Toyota shows no signs of neglecting its mid-size sedan for 2018.The sheer variety of trims, colours and options does make the buyer\u2019s life a little more complicated when it comes to making decisions, but that\u2019s another story!

HDITORIAL Another mystery, and one I deal with on a regular basis, is why a presumably well- educated engineer would design a stove top that requires you to reach over a pot of boiling water or a sizzling frying pan to reach the knob that adjusts the heat.Understanding the mysteries of life / p f e \u2018 ! 5 4 % * TIM BELFORD owards the end of his life my fa- ES mentioned that as he got older he realized how much he didn\u2019t understand.Note here, he didn\u2019t say how much he didn\u2019t \u2018know\u2019 since even the least attentive human being picks up the odd new thing over the course of a lifetime and my father was nothing if not attentive.He was speaking about \u2018understanding\u2019, comprehension, meaning.I got to thinking about this the other day when I managed to injure my ankle getting out of bed, another sure sign that I am not only over the hill but racing towards the bottom.Indeed, after a life of books, writing and experience there are still many mysteries that I have yet to fathom.Here are just a few.What tailor or clothing designer invented the \u201cgauntlet button?\u201d It\u2019s that little button located a few inches above the cuff of a shirt.It serves no purpose, is impossible to do up after the shirt is on and serves, as far as I can see, no style imperative.As we\u2019re dealing with sartorial mysteries, who in their right mind continues to produce men\u2019s trousers with buttons on the fly?The zipper has been around for over a hundred years and has proven its efficacy.The last thing a man needs while using the public facilities at a football stadium, after consuming two large beverages and standing in an eight-person line, is to finally arrive at the urinal and be forced to play a time- consuming game of fumble fingers.Another mystery, and one I deal with on a regular basis, is why a presumably well-educated engineer would design a stove top that requires you to reach over a pot of boiling water or a sizzling frying pan to reach the knob that adjusts the heat.Perhaps those who work in the development of kitchen appliances - and don\u2019t get me started on cleaning ovens - should be required to take a cooking course.One of life\u2019s unanswered questions is why so many drivers are incapable of understanding what the word \u201cYield\u201d means when it appears on a road sign.To most of Quebec\u2019s motorists \u201cYield\u201d, or more commonly \u201cCedez\u201d, appears to be, at best, a synonym for \u201cmerge.\u201d This misunderstanding leads thousands of drivers to emulate a NASCAR professional and fly off the on ramp hoping against hope that everyone on the highway will adjust while they slide between an oncoming semi and a family of four in a Dodge mini-van.Speaking of the automotive world, I have never ceased to wonder why anyone selling cars in Canada would design one with the front windshield wipers tucked neatly away in a recessed hood- wide box whose sole purpose appears to be the collection of snow and ice.Not only is it next to impossible to keep it free of winter precipitation it assures knuckle damage throughout the season.It has always confounded me but perhaps someone out there can explain why the \u201cexpress\u201d line at the supermarket functions as it does.Designed for those with \u201ceight items or less\u201d to ensure speedy processing, it has failed miserably at its task.Firstly, the term \u201ceight items or less\u201d is more of a loose guideline than a rule for the arithmetically challenged.Secondly, if speed is the goal, why are customers allowed to pay for their $6 worth of groceries with a card?Add to this that the \u201cexpress line\u201d also handles bottle return, cigarette sales and the purchase and redemption of loto tickets, and one might as well take the slow lane.No, my dad was right.The older one gets the less one understands the true mysteries of life.RECORD 6 Mallory, Sherbrooke, Quebec

Stone Circle in Stanstead, Quebec, on Saturday, September 23rd at 2:00 pm.This bilingual event will begin with a short session of chanting followed by Dances for Universal Peace led by Heather Webster and Munira Avenger.Dances for Universal Peace are simple dance steps done to live music combined with different mantras from various cultures and belief systems from around the world.The dances are taught on the spot so no previous experience 1s necessary.They are done in a circle (representing Unity), sometimes interacting with the other dancers and sometimes not.This is a slow, reflective FRONTIER ANIMAL SOCIETY and deeply personal experience as we summon up peace in ourselves and for the world at large.You will leave the event a changed person.On display within the stone circle will be several examples of \u201cLes Soldates de la Paix\u201d (Soldiers of Peace), a terracotta \u2018army\u2019 of female figures each holding a votive candle.These 9-inch high clay figures are the soul-project of Claude Desjardins, an artist and peace activist from the Eastern Townships, whose life-long mission is world peace.Her inspiration for this particular project came after Sept 11th, 2001, and a need to do something to make a difference.She set herself the goal of creating 6000 soldiers of peace to counterbalance the war energy of the 6000 terracotta soldiers buried in the ground surrounding China\u2019s first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, accidently discovered in 1974.Also on display will be 1000 origami Cranes of Peace created by local school children and others.Cranes of Peace are associated with Sadako, a young Japanese girl who lived in Hiroshima during WWII and was diagnosed with \u201catom bomb disease\u201d at the age of 12.Knowing she was terminally ill, her wish was to create 1000 paper cranes for peace before she died.Filming will take place at this event for an upcoming short documentary film about the \u201cSoldates de la Paix\u201d.Please dress in white, bring a cushion or meditation bench for the chanting and water to drink.In the event of rain, the celebration will take place in The Hangar Building at the Weller Farm, 4945 Chemin Stage, Stanstead East, QC, JOB 3EO, ten minutes from Stanstead.The Stanstead Stone Circle is a Circle Featured pet: Sammy friendly dog who was rescued from the remote north in late August.While we don't know the exact circumstances of his rescue nor the details of his prior life, he is very trusting of people and is accustomed to living in a house.Following his arrival at the shelter, Sammy was transferred to a foster home where he quickly settled into the household routine.Friendly and outgoing, he seems to adjust to new environments and new people quickly.He was very relaxed when undergoing his vet exam, didn't mind having his nails trimmed and was fine about being bathed.Suffice it to say, Sammy is very good natured.Sammy is said to be dog social and did interact with dogs previous to coming into our care but because he is recovering from kennel cough, we haven't had a chance to test him ourselves.As for cats, although initially he showed a little too much enthusiasm towards the cat with whom he currently shares a home, they have since settled into a mutually agreeable relationship.Sammy now accepts that the cat is in charge.S ammy a two year old lab mix, is an outgoing and Out on walks, Sammy is generally ok on the leash but he is still learning and needs someone who is firm and consistent to keep him on track.When encountering wildlife along the trail, he stays calm and is content to sit and watch from a distance.Sammy is an affectionate, handsome and happy dog who is content to sleep in his crate at night (although he would probably prefer the couch) and who is well behaved in the home overall.If you are interested in finding out more about him, please send an email to frontieranimalsociety@gmail.com or better yet give our adoption coordinator Brenda a call at 819.876.7747 any day of the week between 8 a.m and 8 p.m We'd also like to take this opportunity to let readers know that our annual benefit auction will be taking place on Sunday October 22nd at 1 p.m in the town of Beebe (close to the shelter) so please mark your calendars.It's a fun event with lots of great items up for bid.All money raised supports the shelter and the animals in our care.We'll provide more information as we near the date.International Day of Peace for World Peace.It was installed on the equinox on Sept 23/24 in 2009.At that time, written intentions and pictures for world peace from local children and beyond along with other significant objects from every continent, were buried under the Peace Stone.Aligned with the Autumn Equinox (when the length of day and night are in balance), this is the time of year to experience the sunrise aligning with the stones on the hillside to the east IF the weather is clear! Sunrise is at at 6:36 am and should rise above the hill at the circle around 7:00 a m.Donations to defray transportation costs etc are welcome.Volunteers to help with set up etc would also be greatly appreciated.For more information contact Kim Prangley at 819 876 7492 or by email at stansteadstonecir- cle@gmail.com pr pressreader PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREADER PressReader.com +1 604 278

City administration claims The Record savings goal nearly reached Record Staff SHERBROOKE s a municipal election looms in the Aves future, the City of Sherbrooke as announced that it has reached 89 per cent of its optimization objective, which aims to generate recurring savings of $11 million in operating expenses by the end of 2017 and Director General Yves Vermette, says the savings will reach 105 per cent of target by the end of the year.As of July 4, savings this year totaled $9,792,158 and additional savings of $1.7 million are predicted by the beginning of 2018.Among those savings are those stemming from the impact of the requirement to disseminate public notices in newspapers.\"We had little room for maneuver, because with Bill 15, many employees hesitated to retire,\u201d Vermette says.\u201cWe are in the process of negotiating to try to resolve the pension plan issue it is believed that many will make a decision in 2018,\" The need to reduce operating expenses appeared in 2014 when Hydro- Québec's rate changes were announced, which had an impact of $6.5 million, and the fiscal pact that cost the city nearly $4 million.The QST return was also lowered by $3.6 million.Faced with this reality, City Council came to the conclusion that the revenue wouldn\u2019t be there and that budget cuts were required.Service managers were advised that reduction targets had to be attained, either by attrition or by reviewing operational methods.Since the beginning of the fiscal year, 91 jobs have been abolished, but 79 new positions were created during the optimization period, of which 36 came at no additional cost \"The City has 3,300 more households than three years ago,\u201d adds Sherbrooke Mayor Bernard Sévigny.\u201cThey have to be provided with services.This is pressure that already exists naturally on the municipal apparatus.Despite this, there is a culture that has developed, a culture of questioning, of lean management.Yes, there have been cuts, but I think the quality of services has been maintained at very high standards.There are extremely interesting signals for taxpayers in there,\" Savings associated with the reduction in the number of elected officials, about $600,000, will only come in 2018 and are therefore not included in the amount advanced to date.Beware of free online trials Record Staff SHERBROOKE 1s urging consumers to be cautious when invited on the internet to register for a free trial in a limited time offer.The Bureau is once again reminding consumers that providing credit card information to cover minimal delivery costs can result in unknowingly registering for a monthly subscription that will result in payments deducted each month.The Bureau says that websites where this kind of scam is usually found offer a variety of goods, including medical products or cosmetics.Most of the time, consumers are encouraged to register through social media ads, sponsored news articles, and pop-up polls from trusted websites.These traps are difficult to spot and stop, according to the Bureau, which explains that dishonest businesses use pressure selling techniques to hasten consumer decisions.Thus, they will hide links to modalities and acceptance or registration boxes will already be ticked.These companies can also use strict cancellation clauses that make it difficult to stop shipments and billing and often pretend to be trusted companies using a Web address resembling that of a known company.The Bureau suggests that consumers research any company offering a product before registering for a free trial.In the event that it becomes difficult to cancel a subscription, it is recommended that assistance should be requested from the credit card issuer, a consumer protection organization, or law enforcement

Local Sports Montreal's Darian Durant has played in both games this season against Toronto, completing 32-0f-54 passes for 330 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.Toronto Argonauts look to register consecutive By Dan Ralph THE CANADIAN PRESS he Toronto Argonauts couldn't pick a better time to break a season-long trend.Toronto (5-7) hosts the Montreal Alouettes (3-9) at BMO Field on Saturday night having not won consecutive games this year.The Argos are coming off a 34-26 home victory over the Edmonton Eskimos last weekend, their first over a West Division club this season.A win over Montreal would help the Argos in two ways.First, they'd take the season series 2-1 and hold the tiebreaker against two conference rivals, having already secured it against Ottawa.Secondly, the Argos would give themselves a six-point cushion on Montreal in the battle for second in the East Division.And that's crucial given it's clear only two Eastern clubs will qualify for the post-season.The Argos have a glorious opportunity to take control of matters in the East Division.Montreal has dropped five straight, is 0-5 on the road and averaging just 18.3 offensive points per game overall.Ottawa (5-7-1) remains atop the East but has quarterback issues.Trevor Harris (shoulder) is on the six-game injured list and backup Drew Tate suffered an arm- shoulder injury in last weekend's 29-11 win over Montreal and isn't expected to play when the Redblacks visit the Winnipeg Blue Bombers this week.That would leave former NFLer Ryan Lindley under centre after he completed 7-of-14 passes for 76 yards and an interception in relief of Tate versus Montreal.And after reeling off two straight wins, Hamilton (2-9) dropped a 27-19 loss to Saskatchewan and faces the B.C.Lions (5-6) on Saturday night.East Division teams are a dismal 4-21-1 versus their Western rivals this year.Toronto is the only East Division team to have a winning home record (4-2) and has the best head-to-head record (4-2) within the conference.The Argos also didn't have starter Ricky Ray for their 21- 9 road loss to Montreal on Aug.11 as Jeff Mathews and Cody Fajardo were a combined 18-0f-28 passing for 142 yards.The following week, Ray was 35-of-43 for 377 yards and four TDs in a 38-6 home win against the Als.On Saturday, Ray was 22-0f-32 passing for 224 yards with a touchdown and interception against Edmonton as running back wins for first time this year James Wilder Jr.ran for 190 yards and TD on 11 carries.Montreal's Darian Durant has played in both games this season against Toronto, completing 32-0f-54 passes for 330 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.But the Alouettes have often been their own worst enemy this year as they're the league's most penalized team and are tied for second in most interceptions surrendered (11).Prediction: Toronto.Ottawa Redblacks versus Winnipeg Blue Bombers (Friday night).Tate will dress but Lindey is expected to make his first CFL start for Ottawa.Lindley does have NFL experience with Arizona, San Diego, New England and Indianapolis and Greg Ellingson (72 catches, league-high 1,123 yards, seven TDs) and Brad Sinopoli (81 catches, 908 yards, three TDs) anchor the Redblacks' receiving corps.Winnipeg (8-3) comes off the bye having won seven-of-eight games but defensive lineman Jamaal Wester- man (upper-body injury) is out for the rest of the year.Prediction: Winnipeg.Hamilton Tiger-Cats versus B.C.Lions (Friday night).Defensive end Alex Bazzie returns for B.C.(6-6), which should boost its pass rush.But quarterback Jonathon Jennings threw three picks in last weekend's 27-13 loss to Calgary and has 12 on the season, tops among CFL starters.Jeremiah Masoli makes a fourth straight start for Hamilton (2-9), which is 13-30 all-time in Vancouver and 0-7 against West Division teams this year.Veteran receiver Andy Fantuz joined the Ticats\u2019 practice squad this week but won't play.Prediction: B.C.Calgary Stampeders versus Saskatchewan Roughriders (Saturday afternoon) Veteran quarterback Kevin Glenn (hand) returns for Saskatchewan (6-5) after missing last weekend's 27-19 road win in Hamilton.The Riders have won four-of-five games and are 4-1 at home but endured a rash of injuries versus the Ticats.Calgary (10-1-1) has won eight straight and is 15-0 versus West Division squads while boasting a CFL-best 4-1 road record.The Stamps' defence is allowing 17 points per game and has forced 30 turnovers, both league-best marks.Rugby Canada looks to turn men's program around with new coach and framework By Neil Davidson THE CANADIAN PRESS fter firing coach Mark Anscombe A folowing a failed first crack at World Cup qualifying, Rugby Canada is starting to put the people in place to help turn around the men's national team program.A new men's coach is expected to be named this week.A high-performance director will also be chosen in the weeks to come.Former women's coach Francois Ratier started this week as head coach of the national fifteens academy.The French-born Quebecer is tasked with running the senior men's centralized program in Langford, B.C., on a day-to- day basis while providing technical leadership for national age-grade programs (both men and women).\u201cThose are three key positions that will not only help the men's 15s program but also have benefit to the rest of the organization,\" said Tim Powers, chair of Rugby Canada's board of directors.\u201cThey're going to have to work as a team,\" he added.\u201cThere are no individual messiahs who are going to lead to the resurrection of Canadian rugby.Nobody should be putting that in their head or believe that that's the way to go.\u201cIf we've learned one thing, it's that people in both their criticism and praise of Rugby Canada and certainly Rugby Canada personnel will point their finger at one person and say 'He or she's doing great\u2019 or 'He or she sucks.' If we fall victim to buying that approach we are not doing the game a service.\" The issue of funding the men's program, currently ranked a dismal 24th in the world, was raised during a weekend meeting of the board in Toronto.The bottom line was more is needed to achieve success.\u201cThe men's 15 team has to be a huge priority,\" said Powers.\u201cIt's key to our funding, it's vital to our community and it's vital to the growth of the game.\" Powers says the board and senior management concluded that in addition to reviewing on-field operations, an examination of the entire organization is in order.\u201cWe recognize we're at a crucial point as an organization,\" said Powers.Some things are working, with Powers pointing to the recent improvement in the men's sevens, the ongoing success of the women's sevens and the fourth- ranked women's 15s team, despite a disappointing fifth-place performance at the recent 2017 World Cup.The men's under-20 team performed poorly at the recent second-tier World Rugby U20 Trophy tournament, finishing seventh at the eight-team event.\u201cWe're are trying to find key points and key areas that we need to address while at the same time making sure the things that are working continue to work as best they can,\" said Powers.Anscombe, a New Zealander, was let go in August after Canada stumbled at the first World Cup qualifying obstacle, a two-game aggregate series with the 17th-ranked Americans.Canada is now preparing for a qualifying series against No.18 Uruguay early next year.Should Canada lose that series, there is one more chance at making the field for the 2019 World Cup in Japan _ via a last-ditch repechage tournament.Canada has never failed to qualify for the World Cup.Failure to do so could cost Rugby Canada much-needed funding from World Rugby.Powers says making the next World Cup may be the No.1 imperative but it is also the short-term goal.The longer target is to make the tournament and do well.\u201cOur goal has to be for 2023 and 2027 to elevate our standings and to potentially get to a place where we're competing for a berth in a playoff round.\" While Ratier's new job is full-time unlike the women's coaching position which was deemed part-time, in many way the move is a leap of faith for the former winger.He is leaving his wife, a teacher, and seven- and 10-year-old daughters behind in Montreal, at least for this school year.And he has taken the job without knowing the next Canadian coach, with whom he will work closely.Without a pro league in Canada, domestic players face a huge jump in class when they play internationally.Ratier's main mission for the next few months will be to work with the new coach in preparing the carded men's athletes, who are centralized in Langford, for the Uruguay challenge.Ratier will also work with provincial organizations and coaches across the country to develop a common system for improving core skills.A native of La Rochefoucauld, France, Ratier had coached at almost every level of the game since coming to Quebec in 2003 following a pro career with SC An- gouleme.He served as interim coach for the senior men's team in the Americas Rugby Championship in 2016.PressReader.com +1 604 278 4 ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY ORIG p pressreader PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY

ON 6 By Danny Seo oN You've heard of secondhand smoking, but did you know there is also thirdhand smoking?The children's health advocacy group Healthy Child Healthy World says thirdhand smoking is when toxic residues left behind from a smoker remain on things like clothes, fabric, furnishings, walls, bedding and other porous surfaces in a room.While the simplest step to protect children is to avoid smokers altogether, that can't always be the case.If you go into a room that has traces of smoke, open a window and use fans to circulate air.Ask people who smoke to change clothes and wash hands before interacting with infants and children.pr ISAPPEARING = | a WETLANDS ARE Protect them.Become a member today.www.ducks.ca o 1-866-384-DUCK De OS ONgCOMPANY Discounts: 2 insertions or more:

PREPAID CLASSIFIED ADS TO THE RECORD, 6 MALLORY, SHERBROOKE, QUEBEC J1M 2E2 Ex still in the picture THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 2017 Dear Annie: About two years ago, my wife of 20 years, \u201cCynthia,\u201d and I divorced.Our two children are grown and out of the house.Our divorce wasn\u2019t the norm; we did it without a lawyer or mediator.Everything was civil; no one cheated or was abused.I think we both just changed over time.About four months after the divorce, I met another woman, \u201cBeth.\u201d Having already had my cry, I decided to give it a shot.Long story short, we were great for each other, and now, a year and a half later, we're engaged.The problem is that Cynthia doesn\u2019t really have a family other than mine.My sister and the rest of my family are sympathetic to Cynthia and want to include her.I don\u2019t mind being around her, but the awkwardness comes in when Beth and Cynthia attend the same family events.Beth understands that it\u2019s unavoidable during big occasions, such as weddings and funerals.But she feels that it isn\u2019t normal for Cynthia to be around for our casual family gatherings, which are more frequent.She feels that once people divorce, they should start to move on with their lives and shouldn\u2019t hang around an ex\u2019s family gatherings.I'm very torn.I want Beth to attend these events.However, if I asked Cynthia to stop being around so much, it might get back to my family, and then Beth and I would be deemed as spoilers in the family.But she may already be seen as an outcast by excluding herself from these gatherings.ee Wr ENT cw fag LEY Is Beth having anxiety over nothing, or should I ask my ex not to be around so much?\u2014 Ex In or Ex Out Dear Ex In or Ex Out: Your ex-wife was a part of your family for 20 years, and that bond doesn\u2019t disappear once the ink dries on the divorce papers.It\u2019s understandable that she wants to stay in touch with her former in-laws, and it\u2019s understandable that they want to include her.But it\u2019s important that your fiancee really get to know and love your family, and she\u2019s having a hard time doing so with your ex-wife around.Rather than disinvite Cynthia, talk to your family members about your concern and plan additional outings with just them and Beth.Once Beth feels more settled and secure with her place in the family, it will be easier for her to relax at family gatherings, even when Cynthia is there.Dear Annie: My husband and I own a boat that takes tourists on short trips.Three years ago, he fell in love with the only woman on board.When I realized something was up, I said, \u201cIf she is so wonderful, what is stopping you from being with her?\u201d Without hesitation, he said, \u201cThe age difference.\u201d I have not been able to stop thinking about that every day for the past three years.I am becoming upset even writing this to you.She is not interested in him.I guess he is old enough to be her father.But what if he meets someone his own age?I think I'd better see my lawyer.What do you think?Should we get a divorce?\u2014 Seasick Dear Seasick: I can\u2019t tell you whether you should get a divorce based on your letter.But I can tell you that you can\u2019t keep living this way.One comment has been eating away at you for three years, and you need to put a stop to that before it swallows you whole.Have you tried talking to your husband?It\u2019s possible his comment was a joke, albeit a mean one.In any case, I'd strongly recommend a few sessions of marriage counseling so you can open up the lines of communication.Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.SUDOKU DIFFICULTY RATING: NY 8,213 117 2 9 7 Pa > oo \u201ceo Ww oo ~ = WwW 4 On / 6]2 718 3

statisticians had a crystal ball By Phillip Alder Daniel Libeskind, a Polish-American architect and artist, said, \u201cLife it is not just a series of calculations and a sum total of statistics; it\u2019s about experience, it\u2019s about participation, it is something more complex and more interesting than what is obvious.\u201d That made me think of this deal from a 15-table duplicate.Look at the North hand.South opens one heart, and righty passes.What should North do?In the duplicate, one North cautiously passed, one bid one no-trump forcing, five responded one spade, and eight raised to two hearts.The textbooks advise two hearts.The snag with one spade and one no-trump forcing is that if partner rebids two of a minor, when North then bids two hearts, it promises only a doubleton, because with three, North would have raised one heart to two hearts.North should hope that if there is a better spade fit, South will have enough power to try for game with two spades, which North would raise to three spades.Here, though, if North bids one spade, South should raise to two spades.This might end the bidding, or East might balance with a takeout double.After one heart - two hearts - pass, CROSSWORD North 09-21-17 à KQ973 ¥ 743 ¢ J109 & 104 West East & 1085 & J4 Y 108 YKQ2 + K8754 + A 632 & À K 9 #& 83652 South & A 62 YV AJ965 $ Q &QOJ73 Dealer: South Vulnerable: Neither South West North East 1Ÿ Pass ?Opening lead: # A West should double.Then East\u2019s two-no- trump advance ought to show length in both minors, not be natural.North will win eight or (more likely) nine tricks in spades.In hearts, South might follow the percentage play of a low heart to his nine, which would give him five losers.Three diamonds by West is destined to lose two spades, one heart, one diamond and one club, to go down one \u2014 a great result in a duplicate.Across 1 Hopped out of bed 6 Challenge for Santa\u2019s dry-cleaner 10 Medicine __, Alberta 13 OPEC, for one 15 Radius
