[THIS WEEK] A2 — RURAL ROOTS — OCTOBER 23, 2014 from the EDITOR I grew up in a trailer park. A statement like that comes with a lot of stereotypes and judgments and the like. And that’s OK. I am not at all ashamed of my upbringing. My dad died young, and my mom gave her all, and literally almost her life, to raise my little sister and I. The community we called home was on the southeast edge of Winnipeg, and as a CONTACT US youngster was very literally on the edge of town. I had many friends around my age in that trailer park growing up. We all played street hockey all winter long, and football throughout the summer. Amazingly, three of us Trailer Park Boys — the original, have now ended up living right here in Prince Albert. What are the odds?! But, the very best time to live in a trailer park??! Halloween night. With 300 mobile homes stacked side-by-side-by-side, you could hit a lot of doors in a short period of time – even with little legs! So, as weird as it sounds, Halloween offers some of my most amusing memories of growing up. Those piles of candy after emptying your garbage bags (yes, plural) was a child’s joy matched only by Christmas. So, forgive me if you see me trick or treating at a mobile home park in this area.

M ove over Santa Claus! The Great Pumpkin has become a new goldmine for Canadian retailers. More than two-thirds of Canadians participate in Halloween activities. The average consumer plans to spend $77 on Halloween: costumes $29, candy $24, decorations $21, greeting cards $3. Three out of four households will hand out treats this Halloween. In October 2011, Canadians spent more than $350 million on candy products. Candy spending at Halloween is second only to spending in December, where Canadians spend more than $450 million on Christmas confections. While spending on Halloween has mushroomed, the number of Canadian children who go trick or treating has been steadily falling, from 4.09 million in 2000 to 3.73 million in 2012. That’s because Halloween isn’t just for kids anymore. Adults are spending the money on celebrating, embracing Halloween as a chance to let their inner child get out and party. Large parties with participants wearing elaborate cos- [SNAPSHOT: Looking back] horror movies. Why do we enjoy being frightened? Even a toddler likes the controlled terror of peek-a-boo. Perhaps it’s built into our biology. When you watch a scary movie or take a ride on a roller coaster, your brain triggers a fear response. Your body releases adrenaline and other hormones that provide extra energy to deal with the situation. When you’re actually in danger, of course, you don’t enjoy the feeling of these hormones, you simply use them to fight, escape or take some other action. When the danger is simulated, though, your mind knows you’re actually safe and you enjoy the energy that the hormones give you. Intentional, contained fear is fun because it provides a hormone rush within a safe environment. Fears, real and imagined, appear to be growing in society. Perhaps Halloween is a healthy way for people to deal with their fears. RUTH GRIFFITHS tumes are becoming increasingly popular. In 2013, 70 percent of 18-24 year olds planned to celebrate Halloween, but 65 percent of consumers aged 25-34 and 60 percent of 35-44 year-olds were also planning to celebrate. Costumes aren’t just for people. Ten per cent of those who don Halloween costumes also dress their pets. Decorating the house and yard for Halloween has become increasingly popular. Decorations for Oct. 31 now rival those created for Dec. 25. One in three homes are now decorated for Halloween, making decorations a growing piece of the Halloween-spending pie. (Pumpkin pie no doubt!) The sudden appearance of three new Halloween stores in Prince Albert illustrates our growing willingness to shell out for Halloween.

Although she currently lives in Edmonton, Brooks-Starks decided to take a solo canoe trip from there to her hometown of Prince Albert this fall. “I’ve always wanted to link my two homes,” she said. “I am not actually sure why, but I just had this desire to do it for a long time now.” She originally thought the trip would take a couple weeks, but after some research discovered it was going to take much longer — time she spent on self-reflection. “I went on my own and to take some time away from real life and get back to myself,” Brooks-Starks said. The trip took 28 days and saw her paddling between four to seven hours each day, except three days she took as rest days. Although she has participated in other water sports, BrooksStarks is not an avid paddler. She has been involved in kayaking, both on lakes and in rapids. “I watched those old National Film Board videos on how to solo paddle,” she laughed. “In Alberta there were little rapids every few days but they weren’t too worrying,” she added. “I was glad to have that white water kayaking experience. I wasn’t too worried in the canoe but it was something new, which was neat.” Her biggest concern was not camping or canoeing, but being alone for a month. “It was neat telling people about the trip because you could tell … how much of an introvert they were by how excited they were or how crazy they thought it was,” Brooks-Starks said. In the past, she was on a silent retreat and did one 24-solo trip, but never anything to this extent. “Being alone, I got homesick a little bit, in the middle actually, but being alone wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be,” BrooksStarks said. Before heading out, BrooksStarks packed enough water and food for the entire trip and avoided towns as much as possible. She was eating bannock for breakfast, snacks, soup and [QUOTED] “I had every emotion I would laugh, I was happy, I had big cries, I was angry — there was a lot of space in my day. I had a lot of time to think about things and reflect on things.” — Alison Brooks-Starks crackers for lunch and pasta or rice for supper. “I’m a vegan, so I didn’t have to worry too much about perishables but I took as much fruit as I thought would last,” Brooks- better. It is beautiful. There is not garbage and stuff. I swam in it and it was beautiful, clear and warm.” Other than basic supplies, Brooks-Starks didn’t take along any electronic devices other than a camera — she left her phone and radio at home. “I only had that feeling maybe the first day that there was something to check and then I was like, ‘Oh there’s nothing to check,’” she said. Brooks-Starks didn’t miss having a calendar and schedule to follow, as she started to use her internal clock. “I would wake up with the sun and think, ‘It is probably about 7:10,’ and it would be exactly 7:10,” she said. “You’d hear the geese super loud in the morning and super loud at night and they would be flying during the day. I just got to know the rhythm of the day — getting to know when certain animals are active, when they are not.” After being on the river for so long, she started to rely a lot on intuition and feeling instead of relying on schedules, maps and Starks said. Since she was working hard, paddling down the river every day, the food was very satisfying, she said. Although she didn’t want to go into towns while on the trip, at one point she did venture into one for more supplies. “I did buy some more cookies and chest waders in North Battleford,” she said. “I had one visitor — dad came to see me in North Battleford and we got a bit more gear for the sandbars and for the frost. There were a couple really cold nights so I got some dry socks and some thicker gloves. “I didn’t tend to go into towns and I didn’t have anybody drop stuff,” she added. While in North Battleford, Brooks-Starks also had a shower — something she was unable to do the rest of the trip. “It was so glorious,” she smiled. “At the start I was swimming (because) it was hot enough to swim. “The river is really beautiful,” she added. “There is a lot of misinformation about how clean that river is.

She arrived on Thanksgiving weekend. Submitted photo other modern devices. The first night, she only paddled as far as she intended and then stopped at what she first thought was a decent campsite. “After that, I started to realize there’s really beautiful places to stop or really convenient places to unload,” Brooks-Starks said. “I actually started to look for my campsites based on feel. One would look good but it wouldn’t quite feel right and then I would come around the bend and there would be something beautiful. I was living a lot by intuition and feel and what felt right.” She would sleep on islands or the riverbank. Luckily, most farmers leave large areas between their fences and the bank, so Brooks-Starks didn’t feel like she was intruding. It was also a time of self-reflection. Since she was alone, there was a lot of time to think about things. “I had every emotion,” BrooksStarks said. “I would laugh, I was happy, I had big cries, I was angry — there was a lot of space in my day. I had a lot of time to think about things and reflect on things.” Sometimes she would think about her dreams and analyze them. “If something came up in a dream I would reflect on that during the day or follow feelings, what felt right to reflect on,” Brooks-Starks said. “It was a different way of living, very different from schedules and organizing and the shoulds of life.” 2014 NISSAN NOTE SV “That was really valuable and really important,” she added. “It was a huge trip for my perspective and I feel like a new person now.” While travelling down the river, she wasn’t always alone. “I saw all the animals — I didn’t see any bears luckily but every fishermen had a story about bears,” Brooks-Starks said. She saw everything from beavers, muskrats and deer to moose and coyotes, but the animal she saw most was birds. 2014 NISSAN PATHFINDER S NOW ONLY $0 DOWN $229/MONTH 60 MONTH LEASE $28,990 2013 Nissan Juke SL AWD 2012 Honda CIvic Coupe 2011 Nissan Sentra SE-R 36,000kms, NE250A 56,000kms, NE255A 2.5L, 177HP, Sunroof, Nav, 82,000kms, NE134A $23,900 $14,900 $13,400 PST Paid PST Paid 2010 Dodge Journey RT AWD 2006 Dodge Durango SLT 4WD 5.3L, Z-71, 78,000kms NE173A 3rd Row Seating, Leather, 29,000kms, NE153A 4.7L, DVD, Leather, 109,000kms, NE257A $19,900 PST Paid PST Paid $12,900 See ‘JOURNEY’ on Page A6 2015 NISSAN LEAF ALL ELECTRIC LEASE FOR $489/MONTH OR $33,900 PST Paid 2010 Chev Silverado Crew 4WD $23,900 “They were doing the same thing — the birds were flying home but which was their home?” she said. “I was going between two homes and so were they.

In addition to the animals Brooks-Starks would see, she also met up with some fishermen and a casual prospector. “I ran into someone panning for gold, so we found a little bit of gold, fossils and some petrified wood,” she said. “He was out there in his kayak, he opened the hatch and handed me a beer. “He was a singer/songwriter/casual prospector,” she added. “He gave me a couple CDs from his car — I helped him load his kayak after our adventures.” Although the gentleman tried to find her some larger chunks of gold, all they found were flakes, which was fine with Brooks-Starks. She was also a tourist, visiting sites such as the Fort Victoria settlement, Fort George and Buckingham House, Ford Pit and Fort Carlton. “I would take pictures and self portraits in these historical places that were shut for the season,” Brooks-Starks said. When in Fort Carlton, she picked a bunch of carrots from already harvested the garden to eat on her travels. “It was so cool to think about how river travel used to be common,” BrooksStarks said about visiting the riverside sites. “I always thought of that when I saw birds of prey because it seemed as though they looked at me like they remembered in their bones that this was a common thing to do. “I would think about it too when I would get stuck on sandbars,” she laughed. “At least I’m not in a York boat, at least I’m not in a steamboat.” Seeing the difference in the land while travelling the river was also an interesting experience. “The changing landscape was a big thing — it was gorgeous,” she said. “In Alberta, there were a lot more boreal ( forests) and more what we are used to in P.A. “Then the river takes a southern turn and it is into farmland and Prairies,” she Tires 6758387 added. “It looks a lot like down south. Then it swings back up again. It felt like every day it was different.” Brooks-Starks is glad her workplace, Edmonton Camp Fyrefly, Institute for Sexual Minorities, Studies and Services, gave her a leave to go on the canoe trip. “Camp was over but there is a program that goes into schools during the school year but we have another presenter,” she said. Although the camp she works at is not really a wilderness camp, she has always been interested in exploring the outdoors. “I feel like I grew up — I lived on Park Avenue — in the park and trees without a shirt,” she joked. Brooks-Starks arrived in Prince Albert on Thanksgiving weekend and was greeted by the sight of her Prince Albert neighbours, dressed in pirate costumes, on the riverbank. “I couldn’t speak, I think someone told me that it was about five minutes at least,” she said. “When I got back, it was really weird to be around people and have conversations because my brain was loud enough. I was so used to having thoughts.” “Even now, it is a bit weird because I am thinking (so loudly),” she added. “When someone was speaking, it would feel like I was interrupting because I was hearing my own thoughts so clearly but I wasn’t saying anything.” Brooks-Starks is glad she could have the amazing experience. “Being alone for so long, I really got to know myself,” she said. “I realized how much I was in my head and not in my body, knowing my emotions or my feelings, and being in the moment. “It was neat to sink in and sometimes I felt one with the river and with nature,” she added. “I was very thankful for that time. It was a ton of fun. It was really great.” IN PHOTO — Alison Brooks-Starks is greeted by her neighbours from Prince Albert, who were on the riverbank dressed as pirates singing The Last Saskatchewan Pirate when she arrived in the city.

Very early in the town’s history, back in 1883, a fire in a woodyard in Goschen showed that Prince Albert was situated in a manner that would speed its destruction by fire. With long rows of wooden houses on the front street, a fire would be able to move along the street easily, CRAIG BAIRD Canadian History Ehx burning everything in its path. The first volunteer fire department would be organized in August of 1883 in Goschen, named the Prince Albert Hook and Ladder Company Number One. Unfortunately, they didn’t have the equipment to truly keep the city safe from fire. By the late-1880s, there was still no protection for fire beyond the Hook and Ladder Company and their assortment of pails, ropes and ladders. As a result, the fire insurance costs in Prince Albert were incredibly high, and many chose not to purchase insurance as a result. In 1887, a town fire de- Sports Hall of Fame Call for Nominations Nominations are now open for the Prince Albert Sports Hall of Fame which recognizes the top athletes, builders and teams in Prince Albert and district.

One volunteer brigade said that the fire appliances were useless and only amused the merchants who stood at their doors laughing at the firemen who were out practicing with the equipment. A meeting was held to approve the purchase of a fire engine and while everyone agreed that one should be purchased but disagreed over whether to buy a $6,000 steam fire engine or a $2,500 chemical/hand engine. Council attempted to get the $6,000 engine but the ratepayers refused. In September of 1897, a massive fire destroyed the business section of town, causing $25,000 in damages. The fire was fought with buckets and a hand pump, and as a result, spread quickly. In 1898, a salesmen offered a steam engine with tanks, hose and a fire hall for the low cost of $6,000 partment was finally truly formed, with the formation of fire brigades and $3,500 to buy a fire engine. Unfortunately, the public didn’t want the town’s revenue spent in such a way, so the town had to be happy with purchasing $600 in buckets, hooks and ladders instead. Thankfully, there were plenty of volunteers for the department and when a fire erupted, it was common to see brigade racing through the streets in their wagon, bells jingling, and creating quite a ruckus that even spooked horses on the street. It did not take long for one of the brigades to become somewhat disorganized and in May of 1887, the town asked the government to provide fire protection for federal buildings. For the next several years, the mounted police fire engine would be the only fire engine the town would have. In 1893, despite vari- Sales: 1-306-922-6363 Service: 1-886-559-9905 but once again, ratepayers (only 50 of the 200 showed up to vote) turned down the purchase. In 1899, a water tank and windmill was supposed to be erected but again this failed to get support. Most businesses only used hand extinguishers and buildings were made of flimsy shells of the most inflammable substances. In 1900, a fire limit bylaw was passed requiring buildings to be covered in metal. For the first decade of the 20th century, the city would continue to operate often without a fire brigade, and when it did have one, it was poorly equipped.

What makes these noodles different than regular lasagna noodles? Which is better? Glenn Dear Glenn, No-boil lasagna noodles are precooked noodles that don’t require preboiling. However, instead of purchasing precooked pasta, I purchase regular lasagna noodles that are high in fiber. I do not boil the noodles, but I make sure that enough sauce covers the noodles so that they bake in the oven along with the lasagna dish. Do not add cheese to top layer, cover tightly with foil and bake in oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for one and a half to two hours. When noodles are tender, remove foil and cover with cheese. Return to oven until cheese is melted. Let stand 10 mins. before serving. Dear Reena, How do you remove water REENA NERBAS Household Solutions stains from wood furniture? Thank you, Lynda Dear Lynda, The first and easiest solution is to apply mayonnaise or non-gel, non-bleach toothpaste to the wood. Leave for 30 minutes and wipe. If the stain remains, cover the mark with a white cloth. Using the steam setting on your fabric iron, wave the iron overtop of the cloth making sure that you do not set the iron on one area. With a little patience, the mark will disappear. FEEDBACK FROM READERS WHO CARE: Feeding crows I am appalled you passed on the tip from Michael about saving bacon grease for crows. 1. It is illegal to feed wildlife and if I am correct crows are wildlife. 2. Bread is BAD for birds. 3. Now I know who is responsible for the filth those crows bring to my birdbath and contaminate it, thus depriving the legitimate users of a decent bath or clean drink. Thanks, Rick Re: Cleaning ovens with Windex or windshield wiper fluid From everything I have read about windshield wiper fluid after seeing a warning about avoiding skin contact with it, I thought you should inform people that this shouldn’t be used to clean an oven, even if you wear gloves to do it. Spraying it is also a bad idea. Here is the label information on a bottle I have: “Do not swallow. May cause blindness if swallowed. DO NOT GET IN EYES. DO NOT BREATHE FUMES. Do not smoke. Keep out of reach of children. USE ONLY IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA. KEEP AWAY FROM FLAMES, SUCH AS A PILOT LIGHT, AND ANY OBJECT THAT SPARKS, SUCH AS AN ELECTRIC MOTOR.” It might be a good idea to warn people who don’t read warnings on bottles! I enjoy your column and have used many of your tips. I even have a file of them saved on my computer. Thank you! Laurie was usually a mess. I cut a 5 foot by 5 foot piece of fiberglass window screen (sold by the meter at outdoor stores and hardware stores) and put it on the ground underneath the feeder. The grass can breathe and the birds can clean up much better, the husks that they leave are minimal and can be easily lifted to be put into the compost. Julie I enjoy your questions and tips, keep them coming. Need a Corporate Presenter on the topic: Harness the Power of Words? Check out my website reena.ca. Re: Storing cheese I enjoy your column and have found your tips very useful. A few weeks ago someone wrote you about the big blocks of cheese and how to keep them. My solution is to cut the cheese into usable portions, wrap well and freeze. Some varieties become crumbly after freezing but that works really well similar to grated cheese on homemade pizza or other places where grated cheese is used. Another tip: For years we had a pile of discarded seed and husks under our birdfeeder in the lawn. The birds would do a fair job of cleaning it up but it Barb If you’re interested in adopting Barb, please go to www.princealbertspca. com and fill out an adoption application or come visit her at 1125 North Industrial Drive. Barb arrived in our care on September 25th when she was brought in after wandering around someone’s property for a week. This sweet girl is only about 2 1/2 years old and was very happy to be inside a warm building. She is absolutely in love with her big comfy bed and she would make an excellent cuddle buddy. We aren’t sure of Barb’s breed mixture but she’s definitely cute as a button with her short little legs. She is house trained, started on routine vaccinations, micro chipped and spayed. 6771556 DEE DEE’S “Other companies BUS TOURS offer moments… we offer memories.

The process could occasionally be painful and significantly compromise your quality of life. Although ageing and degeneration can not be avoided, there is increasing evidence that maintaining an active lifestyle including exercises on a regular basis is very helpful in avoiding pain and discomfort. Chiropractic is one of the most frequently utilized types of complementary and alternative care by older adults. Although the most common reason for older adults seeking chiropractic care is for musculo-skeletal symptoms (most often back pain), chiropractors may also provide a diverse range of services to older patients. Recent research evaluated the role of spinal manipulation therapy and it supports the effectiveness of this intervention for many conditions that affect older patients. Chiropractors are also ideally positioned to introduce very specific physical activity exercises to older patients which not only reduce pain in various areas (back, knees, shoulders, etc....) but also increase mobility thus reducing the probability for falls (a topic which I will discuss in next week column). JOHN FRYTERS Grey Power Additional benefits for the elderly include an increased feeling of energy and reduced pain from problems associated with ageing, the ability to sleep through the night and to participate in enjoyable hobbies. Feeling good, staying healthy and doing things that make us happy are what keeps us looking forward to each new day. Regular chiropractic care increases the quality of life, health and overall well being. Dr. Kevin Henbid, D.C., works at the South Hill Chiropractor Clinic (306-922-5772). He successfully completed the Pre-Med Program at the University of Saskatchewan followed by four year studies at the Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto (graduated cum laude in 1990 with his Doctor of Chiropractic). Dr. Henbid explained that the most common conditions in the elderly seen by chiropractors relate to joint and back pain because of osteoarthritis. He stated, “we also see a lot of people who have injuries related to falls” (more about that in Part Two next week). Common treatments, according to Kevin, would be improving joint mobility through soft tissue therapy, manipulation, prescribing exercises or home stretches, the use of ice or heat at home, and the possible use of acupuncture. Dr. Henbid himself has been certified in clinical acupuncture since 1995. If you are looking for a chiropractor in your area, you can find one using the web site of the Chiropractors’ Association of Saskatchewan (CAS) at www.saskchiropractic.ca Dr. Henbid has been very active in this professional association for well over 6 years – the last three years being its Vice President. The association’s web site also offers some very good resources and health tips for everyday activities including “Best Foot Forward” especially for senior citizens. CAS can also be reached at 1306-585-1411. Regular chiropractic care is a safe and effective treatment for painful problems associated with misalignment of the spine. In addition, this type of care provides numerous benefits to ageing seniors to provide them with increased balance and coordination, flexibility and mobility. The latter can improve the overall quality of life as well as help seniors to continue to enjoy independent Just North Of…. Appraisals Ltd. and Clarke Appraisals living. Chiropractic provides amazing results and has an outstanding record of safety and effectiveness. In Saskatchewan full chiropractic care coverage, if eligible, can be paid for by the Saskatchewan Government Insurance, the Workers Compensation Board, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Social Assistance Plans, Family Income Plans, and Private Health Insurance programs. If you are covered under a supplementary health plan with Saskatchewan Health (Social Services, Family Health Benefits, Seniors Income Plan), you are entitled to twelve (12) chiropractic visits per year paid for by the government. Part one of two It has now been more than 4 years that the Saskatchewan Government removed Chiropractic services for most Saskatchewan residents (except the ones who fall under the above mentioned systems). Manitoba is the only province remaining that provides universal coverage for Chiropractic services. Therefore, Manitoba is also going to be the only province which will benefit from the huge savings in acute and long-term care costs associated with underlying physical problems in seniors which can be prevented through effective, regular chiropractic care. Therefore, I urge all seniors and families of seniors in Prince Al- bert to speak to your local MLA and ask him or her to put pressure on the current government to reconsider re-instating universal coverage of chiropractic care for all seniors in the Province of Saskatchewan. Next week, we continue to speak to Dr. Kevin Henbid about prevention of falls with seniors. John Fryters is a 66-year old senior who likes to provide information for and about his own peer group.

One of the most popular choices for shoppers is Value Village, which each year publishes a comprehensive Halloween survey detailing current trends related to costumes and other aspects of the holiday. The 2014 survey — conducted by the firm Kelton, which last summer polled 1,033 “nationally representative Canadian consumers” aged 18 and older — pointed to a resurgence in traditional costume ideas alongside outfits inspired by current pop culture. An official press release from Value Village noted that “the classics are making a comeback as 30 percent of adults typically look to traditional themes like vampires or witches for costume inspiration, while pop culture is still a top source of inspiration with 31 percent getting ideas from movies, TV shows and celebrities.” According to the Value Village survey, Canadians who were polled believe that the animated Disney film Frozen will surpass Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and X-Men: Days of Future Past as the top movie costume inspirations, while The Walking Dead for the fourth consecutive year was voted the TV show that will inspire the most costumes. Such trends were reflected at the Spirit Halloween store in Prince Albert, where assistant manager Celeste Bourassa offered some insight into the most popular costumes this year for different demographics. “As you can see, Frozen is hugely popular,” Regular Office Hours Monday-Thursday: 2pm-9pm Friday: 2:00pm to 8:00pm Saturday: 10:00am to 4:00pm New fall stock arriving daily! Bourassa said, pointing towards a wall display featuring costumes for girls based on characters from the film, with a particular favourite being the protagonist Anna, princess of Arendelle. Another popular inspiration for costumes was Monster High, a fashion doll franchise that has recently seen adaptation in a number of TV specials and other media. “For the girls, Monster High is huge,” Bourassa said. Asked to name the most popular costumes for boys, she replied, “Ninjas and turtles” — which included actual ninjas along with the teenage mutant turtle variety. “We’ve sold out of Turtles insanely fast,” Bourassa said, pointing to a “Turtle wall” in the store where costumes had been flying off the shelves. “This was packed with Turtle (products), everything you can think of … I’ve moved the baby stuff over so we didn’t have empty space,” she said. “But Turtles sold out almost instantly.” 14104SS00 LUG FALL bags have arrived in beautiful Jewel Tones 301 13th Street East, Prince Albert, SK 306-764-7827 www.performingartswarehouse.com Zombies were another popular costume idea for the young male demographic. For women, princess costumes had proven surprisingly popular this Halloween, Bourassa said. Though the Spirit Halloween outlet had seen booming business since its mid-September opening in Prince Albert, she anticipated that things would continue to heat up as the holiday drew closer. “I’m thinking it’s going to be insane right before Halloween,” Bourassa said. “It was crazy when we first opened,” she added. “There was a lot of what they call ‘tire kickers.’ There’s a lot of people just coming to check it out because it’s cool.” She cited lights, foggers and animatronic items as particular draws for customers at the store. Meanwhile, Value Village — which describes Halloween as its busiest time of year — has touted the presence of specially trained “costume consultants” at each of its store locations, as well as a number of special events and promotions. Every Thursday in October, Value Village stores are hosting “Halloween Costume Catwalk” fashion shows at 3 p.m. in which store consultants showcase popular costumes to the sound of Halloween-themed music. The thrift store chain has also organized a Halloween costume photo contest from Oct. 1 to Nov. 3, in which customers can upload photos of themselves, family members or pets in Halloween costumes through social media and receive Value Village gift certificates worth $100, $250 or $500. Contest entries may be uploaded on Facebook, by tweeting photos at @SaversVVillage using the hashtag #thriftortreat or via Instagram using the same hashtag.

Your questions MARK CULLEN Gardening tell me that you prefer my answers to, say, those found on the internet or from the eccentric neighbour with the giant dahlias growing at their front door. If it were not for your queries and questions about the garden, I would be out of work. Ask on, dear friends. This is what I do. Here is what you seem 14104DM00 6769407 to have on your minds these days: ‘metaldehyde’ bait was extremely poisonous. How do I control snails and slugs? My perennials have finished blooming. What now? They love hostas, tomatoes and most anything that stands still long enough for them to ooze up the stem and munch on the leaves. Snails and slugs are the same pest, only one is dressed in a shell like a turtle and the other prefers to travel naked. Technically they are gastropod mollusks and there are literally thousands of species alive today and over 200 that are extinct. We know that there were many that once roamed the earth as they fossilized during one prehistoric era or another. Don’t expect the remaining bunch to dry up and go away any day soon. Getting rid of slugs or snails is not always easy, especially as they thrive in the cool, damp weather that has been featured this summer. Hand picking is recommended if you can stomach the job and have nothing else to do. I prefer to dust the area around valuable plants like my prize hosta with food grade silicone dioxide or ‘Crawling Insect Killer’. This works like a charm when it is dry. The mollusk moves over the dry powder, which is like microscopic shards of glass, and tiny cuts are created along the critter’s underbelly. They dehydrate and die as a result [well, would you rather smoosh them between your fingers?]. There are environmentally friendly slug baits on the market that are safe around pets and children. Thank goodness, as the old A. Don’t fertilize them. B. Cut back the finished bloom to the green foliage and wait. With luck and a long, warm autumn you may get a second coming of blossoms. I have brown beetles with iridescent green markings on their back devastating my roses – what are they and how do I control them? Introducing Japanese beetles. Twenty-five years ago or so we only read about these in American gardening magazines but thanks to global warming they have moved up with the opossums and are likely here to stay. You don’t kill Japanese beetles, you manage them. You can control them by using a sex lure. I thought that might get your attention. It is not labeled as such, but that is what it is. Look for a Japanese Beetle trap at your local garden retailer. They are pheromonebased and work like a charm. Be sure to empty of dead beetles regularly. Poor, misguided dears. A second control option is to place wide, open containers with water and a few drops of dish soap beneath your affected plants. Go out regularly and scrape off the beetles into soapy water. If you don’t want to touch them (and I don’t blame you), get a spray bottle filled with soapy water and spray directly onto them they will fall off and you can squish them. Leaving the dead beetles there will keep others from moving in. There aren’t any surefire ways of getting rid of these critters but keeping your lawn grub free and not watered during the droughts can reduce next year’s population. How do I get rid of wasps?

Well, listen to this: wasps are very important to the ecosystem. Each spring the Queen in the wasp nest begins laying eggs which hatch into larvae and the worker-wasps go looking for pollen and nectar to feed them. As they forage, they provide a valuable service to the plant world: pollination. As the larvae feed on the ‘meals on wings’ delivered by the worker-wasps, they secrete a sweet sticky substance that fortifies the workers and keeps them going. As the summer wears on, the Queen takes a break from all of that egg laying and the lava mature into adult wasps without any of the sweet stuff to eat. This is when they go looking for naturally sweet stuff like rotting apples and your unfinished can of coke. If wasps are being a nuisance, you might want to trap some of them in a wasp trap using natural fruit juice [not the diet kind] and water. There are many great wasp traps out there: I can’t recommend one over another as they all seem to work if you use them correctly and empty them regularly. Faux-wasp nests have been all the rage in recent years and guess what: they work. Wasps are territorial and do not like to set up shop in the neighbourhood of other wasps. If they think that a wasp nest exists on, say, your patio they will go elsewhere to build theirs. Like over your front door. When should I bring my tropical plants indoors? This is a question that most people with hibiscus, dipladenia and the like do not ask until it is too late. The answer is: any time now. If the goal is to produce great looking tropical plants indoors year round, then bringing them indoors in the next couple of weeks will minimize the negative impact of changing their temperature and light dramatically. Moving tropical plants indoors after a summer vacation out of doors is always stressful for them. The high light of summer and the warm daytime temperatures is what makes their ‘garden performance’ so superior to their performance indoors during the balance of the year. When you do move them indoors, be sure to wipe large leafed plants down with a clean rag and insecticidal soap. Small-leafed tropical plants enjoy a shot of insecticidal soap right out of the bottle. Be sure to apply to the underside of the leaves where most insects harbour. The leaves on my oak tree are turning yellow and the veins are still green?

Do this three times per season if the problem persists. And it well might as chlorosis is a symptom of heavy, nutrient poor soil. Now is the best time of year to do this. Cool evening temperatures, regular rainfall and heavy morning dew all assist in the development of quality grass seed into a young, handsome lawn. Note that the seed needs a medium into which to put down a root: I recommend 2 to 3 cm. of lawn soil or triple mix. And quote me any time: fast germinating grass seed is NOT a sign of quality but the opposite. If it germinates in less than a week it will die fast too. Live fast, die fast.

The 2015 Kia Soul EV’s Canadian MSRP has been set at $34,995. That places the Kia right in Nissan LEAF territory, and it’s cheaper than a Focus Electric. For the time being, Quebec and Ontario governments are respectively offering rebates of up to $8,000 and $8,500 on electric vehicles. They will also Autogo.ca photo the grip of bowling balls. Charging times obviously vary according to which outlet you use. With a 240V outlet, the 2015 Kia Soul EV can be fully recharged in less than five hours, although it takes about 24 hours with a household 120V outlet. As is the case with most EVs, the Kia comes fully loaded, and a unique feature found here is the “Driver Only” climate control setting which, obviously, blows air on the driver and nowhere else inside the car in order to reduce energy consumption. The Soul EV is impressively quiet – even soothing – on the road. De- spite the underfloor battery pack, the 2015 Kia Soul EV’s cargo volume is unchanged compared to a regular Soul, and the rear seatback still folds down in a 60/40 split. The only downside is that rear-seat legroom gets reduced by a few inches. There will be a choice of three exterior colours: help pay up to $1,000 for the installation of a charging station. In B.C., there used to be a Clean Energy Vehicle incentive, but their budget has been depleted. Our drive was all too brief, but it did convince us that the 2015 Kia Soul EV is quite an effort. At the moment, no other electric vehicle on our market combines cargo room, good range and plenty of features at a reasonable price. — Autogo.ca SHELLBROOK PROPERTY WITH YOUR CHOICE OF HOME! medallion-homes.ca sSQFTHOMES s-ULTIPLEmOORPLANSTO CHOOSEFROM s#!,,&/2-/2%$%4!),3 Starting at: $ 149,900 Medallion Mfg.

The electric hamster car is equipped with a liquidcooled AC motor that produces a modest 109 horsepower, but a stout 210 lb-ft of torque; numbers similar to the LEAF’s output. Combined with a single-speed transmission, it allows the Soul EV to accelerate briskly.

[COLUMN] B4 — RURAL ROOTS — OCTOBER 23, 2014 The impact of investor emotions KIM INGLIS, Investment Advisor and Portfolio Manager MS photo likely to make sensible investment decisions. The good news is that investor emotions are quite prairieford.ca 6774103 Available in most new Ford vehicles with 6-month pre-paid subscription predictable, which means that managing them should be possible. It requires two things: a set of rules to guide investment decisions, and the discipline to stick to those rules. Emotions can be removed from the equation by creating an Investment Policy Statement that sets parameters for making investment decisions, and encourages the discipline required to stick to the rules. Clear rules facilitate a calm assessment of hard facts and ensure proper reactions to new or changing information. Investors remain emotionally neutral, ultimately making them more likely to buy low and sell high. Rules allow the proper assessment of data and ensure rational responses to new information, such as changes in net assets, revenues, profit margins, debt, dividends and cash flow. Along with expectations for each of these factors, rules should include a margin of safety to allow for unpredictable variables like company earnings. Sticking to to selection standards should be accompanied by continuous scrutiny. A company’s fundamentals can change negatively which requires stop-loss rules to exit positions. Investors who fight their impulses, and stick to their rules, will not be chasing prices upward in bull markets or be afraid to buy when the bear is about. Those who can’t master their emotions are destined to do the opposite and, as a consequence, lose money by entering before losses and exiting before gains.

REMEMBERING Darrell "JayR" Sewap Colleen Paul February 15, 1925 - October 14, 2014 Oct. 18, 1984 - Aug. 23, 2014 Colleen Paul passed away peacefully at home in Prince Albert, SK with her children at her side on October 14, 2014 at the age of 89 years. Born in Lestock, SK, Colleen was raised by her loving grandparents, Isabelle and William Caldwell Brass, in Nipawin, SK. There, Colleen met and married Ralph Paul, the local Salvation Army Officer (Minister). When she moved with Ralph and her young family to Prince Albert, Colleen began her life-long career of love and service. Colleen loved deeply- especially her grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. Every Christmas or birthday would bring a card from Grandma/Nana with that special generous something tucked inside. But each one knew that the real gift Colleen gave was encouragement. Colleen believed in her young ones and cheered them on to become the people they are today. Colleen had a profound commitment to God and her "church family." With little formal education, she found a career in the social service arm of The Salvation Army . Colleen laboured faithfully and long and, when sidelined by circumstance, continued to serve by encouraging others. But Ralph was the one who had Colleen's heart. Blessed with sixty-one years together, Ralph and Colleen stood together in quiet service to church and community. They worked and travelled and laughed together. When Ralph needed a full decade of care, it was Colleen who gave it. When it came time to leave this world, it was her Ralph that Colleen saw waiting for her in the next. Colleen was predeceased by her husband Ralph, her brother Burns Brass, her granddaughter Heather, her daughter Kim and Kim's daughter Shasta. Colleen is survived by her three children: Gordon (Bunnie), Marilyn (George) and Catherine; her grandchildren: Robert (Jenny), Jill, Adam (Chelsey), Daniel, Sami, Megan, Gabrielle and Blake; and her greatgrandchildren: Ellie, Aoife, Reef, Logan, and Natalie Colleen.

MOAN Bruce Eric Moan, age 57, passed away at his home on October 9, 2014. He was predeceased by his parents, Jim and Florence Moan. Left to mourn his passing are his siblings; Larry, Pat, Sandra (Clark) and Nadine as well as his sister-in-law Hertha Springer. He had three nieces Alisa, Patricia (Bianchini), Shari and one nephew Shane Clark, who along with their children loved him dearly. Bruce reserved a special spot in his heart for Mitch Bourgeault and his family. Bruce worked at the P.A. penitentiary as a correctional officer for 30 years until he retired in 2007. He truly loved the outdoors and fishing so he retired to Zenon Park to be near lakes and good fishing spots. He loved to help others, sometimes whether they wanted it or not, and he was always very proud when asked. Bruce had an amazing sense of humour and could have a whole room of people in tears and holding their sides from the pain of laughing so hard. One of his greatest joys was to tease his mom with all sorts of practical jokes. They often baked cookies together, with him doing the labor and then enjoying the rewards. Bruce asked that there be no funeral or service of any kind as he will be off fishing at Anglin Lake, and his family will honour that request. God grant that I may live to fish Until my dying day And when it comes to my last cast Then I most humbly pray When in the Lord's great landing net I'm peacefully asleep That in his mercy I be judged as good enough to keep Arrangements for the late Bruce Moan have been entrusted to Heritage Funeral Home 306-862-3979. Condolences can be made online at www.heritagefuneral.ca or by email to info@heritagefuneral.ca Joseph Tony Lato Late of Prince Albert, SK February 2, 1943 - September 26, 2014 Joseph Tony Lato was born February 2, 1943 in Spruce Home, Saskatchewan to Ludwik and Tofilia Lato. He left home on the farm at an early age and started on the career path of plumbing. His early work would shape his life. He became a journeyman plumber and eventually started his own business, Lato Plumbing and Heating. Hard work was one of his greatest attributes and it showed in how he ran the business. He never missed an opportunity to put his boys to work at "the shop" and teach them some tricks of the trade. He instilled in us to use those skills to fix anything and it if was worth doing, it was worth doing right. His hard work ethic defined most of his life. He built the house his family was raised in along with a cabin at Emma Lake and a fishing camp in northern Saskatchewan. Many great family memories were made in these places. This also led him to become involved in the East End Community Club and eventually becoming president. He was instrumental in getting the East End Hall and Curling Club into existence. During this time he was presented with a national award for community development and volunteerism for his devotion and commitment. He had a love of fishing, hunting and hockey and shared this with his four boys Dean, Dallas, Dustin and Danny. At one point all four boys and Joe were playing hockey in Prince Albert. They have many stories about the adventures their dad exposed them to and the good times they shared. He also passed along his work ethic to his boys and was very proud of the successes they found later in their lives. He was predeceased by his daughter Veena, and brother John. He is survived by his four sons: Dean (Paris), Dallas (Andrea), Dustin (Jill), and Danny (Courtney); grandchildren: Camryn, Chase, Maddox, Merrick, Scarlett, and Sienna; as well as his sisters: Stella, Mary, Anne, Helen, and Edna; his brothers: Frank and Edward.
