Guy Laliberté has no scientific or engineering background.He may not know an asteroid from a hemorrhoid.He is simply there because he is a dreamer and an adventurer (and okay, a billionaire) \u2014 and I think that should speak to the child in all of us.Guy Laliberté is the grown up version of that kid who always dreamed big.He built his own fortune and if he has the cash to travel aboard the space shuttle, more power to him! He could very well have stayed on earth and commissioned a diamond encrusted toilet with his millions and none of us would have been the wiser.Instead, he chose to squeeze into a claustrophobic tin can and get blasted into the unchartered blackness of beyond \u2014 voluntarily! 1 can\u2019t say I'd do the same thing if I was in his big silly clown shoes.I'd sit here on earth waving a fistful of million-dollar bills at the sky, trying to bribe space to come to me.Besides, Laliberté has certainly done his fair share for charity.For one, he\u2019s donated $100 million to his One Drop Foundation dedicated to raising awareness about the world\u2019s water-related issues.A topic he hopes this space tlight can also bring to light.As 1 write this, (Friday, Oct.9) he'll be(@@y hosting the first live show from outer space.It will involve 14 cities around the world as well as various celebrities here on terra firma.I for one, will be watching.With my glass of powdered Tang.And maybe a clown

years since the congregations of St.Andrew\u2019s and Dominion-Douglas joined forces in 1984.A large turnout is expected this Sunday, Oct.16.The organ was built in 1959 for the Queen Mary Road United Church in Hampstead by Rudolph von Beckerath, a master organ builder from Germany.\u201d Twenty-Five Years Ago October 18, 1984 602 TICKETS ISSUED: \u201cMore than 600 speeding tickets were issued by

Issenman the chance to debate each other head-to-head at its \u2018all- candidates\u2019 meeting on Tuesday night, and will give other unopposed council candidates the chance to air issues and ideas publicly.Because only one election race is shaping up, in the Ward 2 area of eastern Westmount north of de Maisonneuve boulevard, the meeting is shaping up more as a\u2018citizen review\u201d of city council\u2019s past four years.\u201d Thirty-Five Years Ago October 10, 1974 GREENE HOUSES LOST: \u201cThe final legal step to preserve the homes on Greene Avenue directly beneath the Trans-Canada

www.westmountexaminer.com 5 H8 Thursday, October 1 FEATURE Treating indigestion, constipation and IBS Chinese massotherapy and gastrointestinal disorders Craig Cormack hinese massotherapy is a front- ( line therapy for gastrointestinal disorders.Used in combination with healthy eating habits, exercise, and herbal remedies, it provides relief for indigestion, constipation, IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and many other conditions that affect the stomach and intestines.Chinese medicine sees the body as a unified energy system.The body contains energy highways called meridians.These meridians transport \u201cchi\u201d (energy flow) throughout the body.À free circulation of chi equals a free and unobstructed flow of blood to all parts of the body.This flow enhances health and prevents disease.Chinese massotherapy is an integral part of Chinese medicine.Like Tai Chi and Chi Kung, it helps the body self-regulate and achieve optimum wellness without the use of drugs or other intrusive therapies.Also known as Tuina (\u201cpush-pull™), Chinese massotherapy employs hand ot a0 x: Cu he Celis ire Vab: LE VE QUE oF I \u2014\u20140 jupe i i HY Ji gui ty pssage Sam J SATEEN ERTS techniques such as shaking, lifting, pinching, rolling, tapping and acupressure (finger pressure on acupoints; acupressure works like acupuncture, but without the needles).Relief from constipation Chinese medicine considers constipation an imbalance in the liver, lungs, kidneys, spleen, lungs, large intestine and stomach, caused by a lack of water and excessive heat in the body.It views the respiratory, digestive, and elimination systems as three burners called the \u201ctriple burner\u201d Constipation is seen as a blockage in the elimination or \u201clower\u201d burner.Tuina for constipation includes Tai Chi circles (circular abdominal massage) and acupressure on specific acupoints to help the elimination process.Acupressure on the bladder and kidney meridians helps to boost water circulation.Massage strokes bring heat to the skin surface and expel it.Once the lower burner is brought into balance constipation is relieved.LS XI EURO CR TTY Relief from IBS IBS or Irritable Bowel Syndrome comes in two major forms: diarrhea-based or con- stipation-based IBS.Chinese medicine considers these two forms either a problem of excess water in the lower burner (diarrhea) or excess fire in the lower burner (constipation).Organs affected are the spleen, liver, large intestine and stomach.Tuina increases the circulation of water in the body where there is excessive heat.It dries out the body where there is excessive water.Massage treatments release excessive heat through the skin, and excessive water through the kidneys.Tuina hand tech- niques\u2014including acupressure on the large intestine and liver acupoints\u2014also move toxins to the lymphatic system to be expelled.This further helps to restore a natural healthy balance to the internal organs, which in turn helps remedy both forms of IBS.Relief from indigestion Indigestion has many causes.Among the most common are stress, lack of exercise, __ Lecrospegenees @ Desjardins Caisse populaire Sainte-Geneviéve de Pierrefonds INVESTMENT $ CERTIFICATE RESTA FINE and a poor diet.Stress-induced indigestion is quickly and effectively remedied by Tuina.Exercise and dietary changes, quitting smoking and reducing or eliminating alcohol also usually help to resolve indigestion \u2014 and Tuina can help.Case studies have shown that acupressure on the stomach, spleen and other acupoints can help relieve most forms of indigestion.Chinese massotherapy has been a gentle, non-intrusive, and drug-free medical treatment for gastrointestinal disorders for more than 2,500 years.Consult a registered Chinese massotherapist for an effective and natural solution to your indigestion, constipation, IBS or other stomach or intestinal condition.A : » Craig Cormack, BA, RMT, is a registered Chinese

participate in classroom meetings, activities and occasional field trips.By keeping the communication lines open, no one is caught off guard with surprises, should serious academic issues or family dilemmas arise.Of course in schools that are multicultural, miscommunication can frequently occur due to the language and cultural barriers, so occasionally having the child at a meeting may help with

interaction is not always necessary for every contact, and technology has really assisted us in making it easier to reach others especially when the issue is not crucial.In most schools, web sites have been created along with message boards, email set ups and homework sites.No one can omplain that it is impossible to contact the hool, but to really start the year off properly, parents should always make it a point to always attend the first parent teacher evening.This contact should be continued even throughout the high school years as well, as that age should not be a deterrent to parental involvement, as kids of all ages require support.In fact, there is more of a need to be concerned as the child matures, as the teenage years can be so problematic.Teachers usually welcome the input from the home as well as it makes them feel as if education is a team effort.phone call.For more serious issues such as learning or behavioural problems that require additional educational

in a constructive and beneficial manner but there should be certain guidelines.does spend as many hours with his or her child.The exchange between the two should be focused upon the child's welfare and should conflicts in their personalities arise, both should be mature enough to bypass them.Westmount teacher Sheryl Gilman, an educator for many years with an expertise in early childhood education, believes that courtesy and contact between the home and school must be adhered to.A rapport is essential and the goal of working as a team is essential.\u201cWhen a parent attends these parent teacher conferences, he or she is demonstrating how important education is.Parents and teachers are sharing information and that is real education.Communication must be open and welcoming between both parties and everyone must realize that parents know their child best.\u201d 1 can vividly recall that on many occasions that eliciting the support of the family was not feasible, but when 1 could, the child benefited greatly especially when conscientious monitoring at home transpired after school.Many parents believe that education resides primarily at the school but they are incorrect in this assumption, as so much of that real learning begins at home.How prepared a child is when he or she enters the academic world is a reflection of that primary education at home and school enhances and broadens that initial learning.Therefore a connection between home and school must be established at the start of every school year and the strength of it requires care and attention.Parents need to appreciate the cumbersome job of teaching as the teacher is dealing with many children and not one.Another consideration for parents is not to take the information about their child too personally as it is not an indication that he is not being raised properly.The focus of parent/child communication should be on the partnership, and the future, and how to move forward for the benefit of the child.HALLOWEEN Primarily there must be an gpenness and willingness to exchange information to avoid any miscommunication that frequently can arise in an email or even a A

1913, a major Li of approximately 60 feet in length occurred in the principal conduit bringing water into the City of Montreal.There had been a problem earlier that December in the very same spot for which a temporary repair job was quickly completed.Everyone knew that Montreal was very vulnerable in so far as its water repository was concerned, because of the simple fact that there was just one supply route.The now broken pipe (which was nine feet in diameter) was the sole feed of water into a city of more than 350,000 people.The ruptured culvert was located immediately in back of the Verdun Protestant Hospital for the Insane, which was more commonly referred to in those politically incorrect times as the Lunatic Asylum (today it is called the Douglas Hospital).So enormous was the task of correcting the misadventure that it took until the end of the day of Jan.2 to do so.This meant a full eight days with virtually no water whatsoever for Montrealers.Fortunately, there had beén a major snowstorm shortly before the Christmas Day, breach so citizens could bring buckets of snow into their homes for them to melt there.The city also sent out horse-drawn water carts to help alleviate the suffering.The ringing of a bell would announce the arrival of the wagon on any given street.The few institutions that still had artesian wells on their property (like the Hotel Dieu) quickly re-activated them.putting them to good use.The old Western Hospital on Atwater (today the Children's) had the good fortune to be situated strategically close to the City of Westmount, which had its own independent water supply network.Thoughtfully, the town\u2019s fire department deployed a temporary fire hose in order to furnish the hospital with the precious lig- uid.One of the main suppliers of bottled water in those days was the Laurentian Water Company.In the midst of the crisis, demand increased to such an extent that the company was forced to limit its delivery to established clients,
