ADVICE MJTIMES.SK.CA 3 February 26, 2012 Doing God’s work Student at religious university has seen the light and hopes parents will too DEAR ABBY: I’m a sophomore at a religious university that is well regarded in both secular and religious circles. I came here to become a doctor because the pre-med program has an outstanding acceptance rate to medical school. However, in my third quarter I took a religious studies course and fell in love with the department. I’d like to pursue a career in this field, perhaps as a professor. I have an excellent GPA and am working three jobs. My problem is that my parents are not supportive. They think I’m being impractical and will end up working in a fast-food restaurant for the rest of my life. I thought they’d be thrilled I have taken such an interest in our faith. Becoming a doctor no longer interests me. How can I convince them that I can major in religious studies and not live in poverty? — REBEL IN CALIFORNIA DEAR REBEL: You shouldn’t pursue a career in medicine unless your heart is in it because if it isn’t, you won’t make a very good doctor. Unless you plan to take a vow of poverty, a career in religion doesn’t mean you’ll end up living hand-to-mouth. While money is important, it’s more important that you devote your life to something DEAR ABBY: As a divorced dad, I’m hoping you’ll address a problem I have encountered in trying to co-parent my children. My daughters are often invited to parties and sleepovers, which sometimes happen during my parenting time, as well Dear Abby Jeanne Phillips as during my ex-wife’s parenting time. The invitations to these events, however, are almost always sent to my ex-wife’s home or email address. Aside from the problems that have occurred because the information wasn’t forwarded to me in a timely manner, I think it’s sexist for invitations to be sent only to the mother. It reinforces the outdated notion that a woman’s role is to raise children, and a father can’t be an active parent. Would you please remind your readers that the most appropriate way of inviting a child who has two households is to send the invitation to both parents? — MODERN DAD IN ROSWELL, GA. DEAR MODERN DAD: I think you have delivered that message very clearly. However, if not every reader takes it to heart, make a point of discussing with your ex-wife what activities may have been scheduled for your daughters while they’re with you. That way they won’t miss out on anything. DEAR ABBY: I was recently diagnosed with a cancerous tumor on my tongue that has made it extremely difficult and painful to talk. The problem is I don’t know how to handle encounters with strangers in public places — i.e., grocery stores, libraries, etc. I have always been polite and courteous, but now I can do no more than nod. What would you suggest in this situation? — SUDDENLY SILENCED IN FLORIDA SUDDENLY SIDEAR LENCED: Make eye contact with the people you would normally greet verbally and give them a smile as you are already doing. If someone tries to engage you in conversation, point to your throat, shake you head “no,” and mouth the words “can’t talk.” If you feel further explanation is necessary, have cards printed that state, “I am unable to speak.” That way, no one should take offense. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069. Canola fertility and insects DAPHNE CRUISE FOR THE SUNDAY TIMES C anola continues to be an important crop in rotation for the Moose Jaw region. Management of fertility and identification of insect pests are important for obtaining good yields and quality. Canola needs about 3-3.5 pounds per acre of available nitrogen, 1.25 pounds of available phosphorus, 0.60.8 pounds of sulphur and 2.5 pounds of potassium for every bushel of targeted yield. Soil tests will indicate soil nutrient reserves. Carryover nitrogen can be difficult to predict, but after a year of higher than expected yields, this level may be low in some areas. If soil tests show available phosphorus levels at less than 20 to 25 pounds per acre, canola will benefit from a seed placed application of 15 to 20 pounds. This rate will help with the ‘pop-up’ benefit which is important when seeding into cold soils. Sulphur is highly variable across a field, so the recommendation is to apply some sulphur for each canola crop. Moisture is always the major limiting factor for the region and must be included when setting fertilizer rates and budgets. In general, canola needs an inch of available moisture through the growing season for every four bushels per acre of yield potential. Keep in mind that ample moisture in the spring of 2011 probably added additional yield potential for many growers in the region, provided it did not lead to a lot of excess moisture stress on the crop. The 2012 insect forecasts for canola show very few areas with potential high infestation; however it is always a good practice to scout your fields looking for damage. In the spring, scout for flea beetle and cutworm damage. Cutworm damage can typically be seen on hillsides or hill tops where the soil is drier and warmer. Look for plants that have been cut-off at the ground level. The cabbage seed pod weevil has been moving further east into Saskatchewan from Alberta. The weevil feeds on flower buds causing bud blasting. A sweep net should be used to monitor for the weevil, and the economic threshold for control action is an average of two to three weevils per sweep at 10 to 20 per cent bloom. Since the cabbage seedpod weevil tends to keep close to the ground during windy days it is important to scout for the insect when winds are light. For more information call the Moose Jaw Regional Office at 1-866-457-2377. For information on canola varieties, visit the Canola Council of Canada website http://www.canolacouncil .org/canola_perfor mance_trials_2011.aspx.

Times-Herald photo by Tiffany Grant In business: Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt New frozen yogurt parlour gives customers the option to create their own frozen treats TIFFANY GRANT MOOSE JAW TIMES-HERALD Moose Javians can now mix together as many frozen yogurt flavours as they wish, and as much as they wish, at the new Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt parlour. Do not forget to top it off with fresh fruit or candy of your choice. Cindy Demaer of Brandon, Man., along with her partners Brad McLaren and Lee Dick, are the owners of the new frozen yogurt parlour. The parlour, located on 125 Main St. N., opened its doors on Jan. 25. Tutti Frutti is a self-serve and soft-serve frozen yogurt parlour. It alternates between 50 different flavours and offers customers eight flavours to choose from at a time. The frozen yogurt is sold by weight. As you walk into Tutti Fruitti, an employee greets you and explains how the self-serve process works. You cannot help but notice the toppings bar of fruits and other confectionary treats. “The nice thing about Tutti Frutti is everyone comes in and make it their own creation. It suits everyone from babies in a high chair right to the seniors,” said Demaer. Demaer said they discovered Tutti Frutti on a visit to Fargo, N.D. “We just loved the whole concept and thought that it would be a great business to get into,” she said. The business partners opened their second store in Brandon on Monday. They are talking about opening other branches, but do not know the locations as of yet. Running a business is not something new for Demaer. She and her husband had been in the hotel business and previously owned Ruckers Family Fun Centre in Brandon. Demaer said the fact they are making people happy satisfies her the most with her business. Demaer did not hesitate to say that they received overwhelming support from the people of Moose Jaw. “It has got to be the friendliest city I have ever been in. Everyone downtown was there to support us. They said (to us) to bring your posters and business cards. Everybody was so supportive and friendly and that meant so much to us,” she said. Tiffany Grant can be reached at 691-1256. WWW.MJTIMES.SK.CA NEWS HIGHLIGHTS Sunday Times Sunday, February 26, 2012 5 Family Day promotes healthy living for both kids and parents IN PHOTO: A giant cat helps ring in Family Day celebrations at the field house on Monday. MOOSE JAW TIMES-HERALD Events kicked off across the city of Moose Jaw on Monday, providing a much needed break from work during a holiday focused on getting actively involved with children. Events were put on across the city, but the biggest draws were at the field house and the YMCA where a wide range of games and activities were put on for both parents and kids. “It’s a nice way to get the family together and it gets everyone involved,” said Maria Hauersleb, while taking part in a Zuma workout class with her daughter Ellen who said she was going to try every event at the field house, which included aerobics classes, games and even a visit from a person in a giant cat costume. “It’s a nice day to have fun together.” Cindy Simmons, also brought her daughter to take part in the activities and games, giving both a chance to get some exercise Times-Herald photo by Adam Miller and have fun. “It’s just a good opportunity to do something active with your kids. My daughter loves to dance so this is something new to try,” she said. “We all need one day off in February, it’s a long break between Christmas and Easter especially with most families having two working parents nowadays.” Simmons also said hat the facility was fantastic and provided extra programs for both kids and parents indoors to fight off the winter. “Looking at the green grass in here really brightens your day,” she said. Rebecca Handy, a boot camp instructor at the field house, said the events that were put on on Monday were a great way to keep families active together. “It gets kids and adults moving and we’ve got a lot of different games avail- 5516680/022412 Need Ink To Print Your Income Tax? able,” she said. “With people working so much it’s nice to get a day off geared towards family.” On the other side of town at the YMCA, kids and parents were excited for the different games and activities that were generously sponsored by the Moffatt Family Fund. “It’s a great place to come with your kids,” said Dylan Gross, a parent who works as a mechanic and has held a membership with the YMCA for the past 12 years. “Last month we threw my daughter’s birthday party here. It’s something else to do in the city and it’s hard to find a day off of work and spend time with the kids.” Kids had the opportunity to play in a jolly jumper bouncy house, climb a boulder wall, get their faces painted and engage in a lot of different active games with their parents. “It’s something fun and different to do in the city,” said Tara Hanson, who was at the YMCA with her two children. “People lead pretty busy lives and it’s nice to get a chance to reconnect with family.” Kathy Rossler, a youth manager at the YMCA, said that the holiday provided a great reminder for parents and kids to stay active together while having fun. “It’s a family fun event. We’ve got activities for toddlers that help them develop fine motor skills, a boulder wall and other active games for kids and nutritional games for kids to see how much fat and sugar is in their favourite snacks,” she said, adding that childhood obesity is becoming an epidemic in North America and this is a great way to keep families healthy together. “I think it’s a great opportunity for families to spend time together in an active environment.” Adam Miller can be reached at 691-1258 Window & Wall Works by Mark Complete Home Renovations ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ Laminate/Hardwood Kitchen Cabinets Basement Development Window and Door Installations Call MARK 692-9303 or 631-3830 5432585/021212 ADAM MILLER 12024CH00 Serving Moose Jaw for 9 years! 100% GUARANTEED Call 692-3377 for a refill Save $$$ • Refill Tips: • Don’t let your ink cartridge run dry • Don’t leave your ink cartridge sitting around unused. 5504366-022612 5504376/022612 12024KK00 EVENTS • Darts at the Legion, 7:30 p.m. • Taoist Tai Chi Society of Canada, Moose Jaw branch regular and beginners' classes from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the social hall of St. Andrew's United Church.

However, the branches grow weak after heavy pruning and the tree is misshapen and ugly due to what Lennox calls an “explosion” of branches. In a city release pertaining to proper tree pruning, it states a healthy method of pruning is by allowing the tree to keep its natural shape, firstly by removing any dead, damaged or diseased limbs before taking off the branches that are rubbing against each other or a permanent structure. One shouldn’t remove more than 25 per cent of a tree’s living wood. Lennox said Moose Jaw’s urban forest is important for various reasons, including beautification, maintaining clean air, oxygen production and providing habitat for birds and other animals.

THE KIDNEY FOUNDATION OF CANADA www.kidney.ca CARTER HAYDU MOOSE JAW TIMES-HERALD Imagine a Moose Jaw with free public tennis courts. That’s an idea Coun. Brian Swanson served up during Tuesday’s budget committee meeting. “One thing about Moose Jaw, we’re one of the few cities that does not have any public courts,” Swanson said on Tuesday. While the City of Moose Jaw currently does have tennis courts in Crescent Park, Swanson noted those courts do require users to pay and there is a local tennis club for the facility that charges membership fees. Proposed in the 20122016 capital budget is a tennis court-resurfacing project that would cost a total of $151,000. As stated in the parks and recreation department’s capital budget estimates, the tennis club had agreed to commit $54,000 towards the project, with the city covering the remaining $97,000. However, Swanson made a motion on Tuesday, which was unanimously approved by councillors and the mayor, to make funding for the resurfacing project a 50-50 partnership. He said generally the practice is for such “mid- SPECIALIZING IN • KITCHEN CABINETS• VANITIES • COUNTER TOPS & HARDWARE Sunset Kitchens “Your complete kitchen headquarters” range” projects to be funded evenly with the user groups, and this project should be no different. “I just think we should be consistent about how that’s paid for.” With the approximately $22,000 the city saves on resurfacing the current courts by splitting costs with the tennis club evenly, Swanson suggests that money go towards the fiveyear general park upgrade plan to build another free public basketball court in the Friendly City (similar to the current one on the corner the corner of Caribou Street and Ninth Avenue Northeast). He said his thought would be to make that new facility one that accommodates both basketball and tennis, thus giving Moose Javians access to free public tennis courts. The new courts is on administration’s capital agenda for 2014.

The budget committee unanimously approved transferring those funds to 2014 for the proposed basketball/tennis courts. Also discussed during Tuesday’s capital budget meeting was the city’s dealings with regards to widening narrow streets, particularly in the areas around SIAST Palliser Campus. “You know every year we’re getting complaints on narrow streets,” city engineer Mokles Rahman said, adding there are unfortunately various issues that make the process of widening these streets fairly cumbersome. For example, while restricting parking to just one side of these streets is an option, administration is not considering such restrictions at this time. As well, another problem with widening streets, according to Rahman, is the potential loss of trees along the street. The average age of boulevard trees is about 50-70 years old in Moose Jaw and a healthy 50-year-old elm could be valued at about $24,000. There are on average 50 trees to a block. Rahman said funding is not available to widen these narrow streets in the five-year capital budget, and no other sources of funding have been identified. Administration suggests widening of streets is not foreseeable in the near future without an infrastructure levy. As recommended by the engineering department, the budget committee voted to receive and file the tree-widening report. Council will continue to discuss the five-year capital budget, including changes to the hospital levy, during next week’s budget committee meeting.

Times-Herald photo by Adam Miller the Youth Quake program, said that the weekend was a bigger success than he had previously hoped. “We’re looking back on a very successful Youth Quake, with over 1,300 guests that makes the event about 2,100 students and youth from across the country and everything went remarkably smooth,” he said. “The worshipping, interaction and response from the kids was insane, the energy levels blew the metaphorical roof off.” Crocker also said that the event provides an opportunity for youth to make long-lasting connections and friendships that could last a lifetime, which is what pastor Matt Tapley stressed in his end of ceremony address at the Hildebrand Chapel on Sunday. He added that the event also gave out a wide range of prizes at the end of the event, including mountain bikes, wake boards, remote control trucks and said “it’s been a crazy finish to a pretty wild weekend.” Crocker said the highlight of the weekend was Gunger’s performance on Saturday night to a packed auditorium of students and youth leaders. “They were pretty unanimously a massive hit,” he said adding that there were different musical options for all the kids musical tastes. “Different kids were thrilled with different performances, but last night’s concert was some of the highest musicianship we’ve ever seen.” Other highlights of the weekend included the 15 horses that we’re brought to the event by South Valley Ranch Camp and the remote control cars brought by the Ranger Lake Bible Camp. “Other organizations came to serve the students and it’s just so cool to see the entire school and community working together for such a great event but also surrounding partners in the province coming out to see what we’re doing.” Joe Dueck, owner of Joe’s Place Youth Centre, brought 72 youth from Moose Jaw to the event in Caronport along with 17 volunteer staff who said they would definitely be back again next year. “It was just a really wellbehaved group of youth and we raised over $17,000 to take them all there and they all loved it,” Dueck said, adding that it was sad for the youth to have to say goodbye at the event. “There were tears shed as people said goodbye to the atmosphere and the friends that they had made and yet it was a happy goodbye to the Briercrest student leaders because they can still hang out on weekends and it’s not a complete goodbye until the summer.” Dueck also said that one of the youth from Moose Jaw placed second in the music competition for playing his violin and their boys three-on-three basketball team was robbed from taking first place at the event due to a miscount of baskets. “Youth Quake is the event that I attended when I was a teen that showed me Hairstyling If youʼve been 453 LILLOOET ST.

Rob Schellenberg, communications director at Briercrest College, said the weekend surpassed all of the organizers’ expectations and ended with a lot of new friendships and experiences for the youth involved. “It was a great ending to a great weekend, with the whole hall being filled with youth and members of the community who joined us Sunday morning at the Hildebrand Chapel,” he said, adding that despite the fact most of the kids were running on little to no sleep the energy levels were high. “Final numbers for the weekend totalled more than 1,300 youth retreaters that came in from across the country and the concerts were all top notch with bands coming in from all over North America.” Schellenberg added that Gungor, an American folk band, flew in from Colorado for the event, hip-hop act Group 1 Crew flew in from Omaha, Nebraska and Oh, Sleeper, the heavy metal act for the weekend, flew in from San Diego on Friday. “These guys were popping in and popping out and it just shows the importance of an event like this to them as well. They want to be a part of the excitement and everything else to do with it, these guys were willing to work with us to put on a great show,” he said. A.J. Crocker, director of you could have fun without alcohol or drugs and showed me I could have hope for the future and that I had something to contribute to the world,” Dueck said, adding that the speeches and lectures given by speakers still inspire him today. That’s what helped me focus my energy and got me out of trouble when I was a teenager and inspired me to start Joe’s Place. “Ever since then I’ve wanted to get youth back to the event that helped changed the direction my youth was taking me in.” Dueck said he had been attending Youth Quake with youth for 17 years and it challenged him to do something great with his life. “I’ve seen the direction of numerous kids’ lives change and they might not have taken that direction without this event,” Dueck said, adding that he wanted to take the momentum from the event and keep it going with youth in Moose Jaw year-round. “I want to take the energy that’s built up at Youth Quake and not just leave it behind at the event, but continue to encourage that in youth throughout the year with the rest of our programs.” www.easycareliving.com Easy Care Living Centre 319 Main Street North Moose Jaw, SK.

Douglas Spitzig, the director of the Prescription Review Program, said that many illicit users of Oxycontin may do just that — pay cash for a prescription drug that they have become addicted to. “There will be a withdrawal problem, people with opiate addictions will switch to another opiate, which would lead to more trafficking in dilaudids of the world like hydromorphone instead of Oxycontin,” Spitzig said. “Then again, if Oxycontin is still the drug of choice and is not covered by the province then some people may choose to pay cash for prescription, which can be a red flag.” Spitzig also said that the “tamper proof ” measures added to the new OxyNEO drug may not prevent addicts from trying to extract the opiate chemical from the drug for illicit use. “We have found in the past that given enough time, for some reason the people who misuse and abuse these drugs somehow find a way to bypass the aspect that prevented them from being abused,” he said. No new methadone clinics or addictions programs will be put forth to accommodate Oxycontin addicts, as the Ministry of Health said existing treatment programs will suffice.

With a heart for the community duction on the controversial drug in favour of a replacement drug called OxyNEO. The OxyNEO tablet is much more difficult to crush up and when mixed with water it turns into a gel to discourage illicit use in patients. “We are strengthening our criteria for coverage to help encourage more appropriate use of this medication,” said Tracey Smith, director of pharmaceutical services with the drug plan and extended benefits branch of the Ministry of Health. “Our approach is similar to what other provinces like Ontario’s approach is, but the decision to no longer produce the drug was the manufacturer’s decision.” Ontario confirmed on Friday that unlike Saskatchewan, both OxyContin and OxyNEO will no longer be covered under the province’s general benefits plan at the end of the month and new strict requirements will be put in place for physicians to prescribe OxyNEO in the future. The Ministry of Health in Saskatchewan has listed the drug under chronic pain and palliative care for cancer patients, providing coverage in “limited circumstances,” Smith said. “The provinces have been aware and have had discussions and updates on how different jurisdictions are planning to approach this. There has been communication with various drug plans across Canada about how program are planning to approach the issue.” Smith also said that OxyNEO would still be monitored under the province’s Prescription Review Program at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan.

SALE ENDS MARCH 31,2012 ACTION HONDA 1325 Caribou St. W. 693-4140 5513511/022612 PLANNED Sunday Times Sunday, February 26, 2012 MOOSE JAW TIMES-HERALD As Morgan Rielly took his first few strides around the Mosaic Place ice Wednesday all eyes were on his surgically repaired right knee. At the same time you couldn’t help notice the big smile on Rielly’s face. The Moose Jaw Warriors defenceman skated for the first time since his Dec. 1 surgery, but it will be awhile yet before the 17year-old is bringing smiles to the faces of Warrior fans. “It felt pretty good for a light skate,” said Rielly. “I’m just trying to get better every day.” Rielly tore his ACL in a Nov. 6 game against the Calgary Hitmen. He cut hard to the net and was hit by former Warrior Joe Kornelsen, who sent Rielly awkwardly into the side of the net. There’s not even a ballpark time table for his return, but Rielly has healed quickly once this season. He returned to play a pre-season game two weeks after having an emergency appendectomy on Sept. 1. Still to return from knee surgery before the end of the season would be an incredible feat. Continued from Page 10 “We’re not specifically creating any new programs, the programs in place are geared towards addictions and more broadly encourage people to make connections with physicians and programs within the community,” Smith said. “The plan going forward is strengthening criteria to help encourage appropriate use of the drug.” “I have to concentrate on my core strengthening on my hurt leg and try to not go too hard and hurt it again. I have to keep gettin g stronger,” said Rielly. “I’m not quite there obviously, but hopefully it won’t be too long. I just take it each day at a time.” The Warriors were happy to welcome him back to the fold. He spent most of Wednesday’s practice sitting on the bench, but would go for brief skates between drills where he showed his puck skills haven’t picked up any rust. He had a brace on his injured knee and was clearly lacking his usual explosive speed. “It’s nice to see him on the ice and nice to have him back in Moose Jaw and around the guys,” said Warriors head coach Mike Stothers. “We are, by no means, saying he’s coming back any time soon. He still has a long way to go, but you have to start somewhere. “You never know. He’s putting in a lot of Yet Spitzig sees a potential withdrawal program that could lead to more opiate addicts applying to already full methadone clinics throughout the province. “We need more physicians to apply for methadone assistance because most of our programs are jammed full now. In the last six years our methadone population has doubled without an increase in personnel to treat them,” he said, adding that in the past five years Saskatchewan had seen an estimated 40 percent increase in Oxycontin use. “It’s not going to be the end all be all that’s for sure. Addiction is addiction and just because you cut off the supply doesn’t mean the appetite is going to go away.” Adam Miller can be reached at 691-1258 will be stronger than my other side.

Times-Herald photo by Carter Haydu WWW.MJTIMES.SK.CA Harper gives $27 million for aboriginal adult education IQALUIT, Nunavut (The Canadian Press) — Prime Minister Stephen Harper flew to a frigid Iqaluit to deliver $27 million for adult basic education in the North, an attempt to help high-school Sunday Times Sunday, February 26, 2012 CANADA dropouts qualify for productive jobs. The money will be spread out over five years, and shared by three colleges, one in each of the territories. “By improving access to adult basic education, we are giving Northerners the tools they need to seek higher education and secure employment in sectors that contribute to Canada’s economic growth,” Harper said in a statement. Part of the funding was already announced in last June’s budget, which put $9 million over two years to adult basic education. Thursday’s announcement extends the funding time frame and increases the annual allotment slightly. Harper has frequently stressed that education lev- 13 els among aboriginal peoples need to improve if they are ever to find prosperity. But he is under intense pressure from native leaders to put up some serious money behind his words. INVESTING IN SASKATCHEWAN WORKS Diversify your portffolio o , invest at home.

JIM ROMANOFF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Purim has been summed up in this way: They tried to kill us, we won, so let’s eat! Of course, the actual story is a bit more complex than that, but the simple fact is that for Jews who love to cook and eat, this holiday is a favourite. In a little bigger nutshell, the tale behind Purim — which is celebrated March 8 — involves a Persian king, his prime minister Haman (the bad guy), who had it in for the Jews, and a community leader named Mordecai. Basically, Mordecai and his stepdaughter Esther, who became the queen (of the good guys), save their people. The fun that goes along with the celebration of Purim can’t be overstated. Events and traditions include the reading of the Purim story along with audience participatory noisemaking to drown out the name of the bad guy each of the 54 times it is mentioned. Then there’s the food. The Book of Esther tells celebrants they should practise charity and goodwill 5498362/021512 Sunday Times Sunday, February 26, 2012 5432556/020812 14 This image taken on Jan. 30 in Concord, N.H., shows vegetarian Turkish red lentil balls, a delicious, healthy and easy way to include a taste of Persian cuisine in your own Purim feast. AP photo by Matthew Mead (which in the story helped save the Jews from peril), by helping those who are less fortunate, and by the making and giving of food gifts called mishloach manot. Then, of course, there needs to be a feast to celebrate the victory. There’s even a proscription for adults to drink wine until they can’t tell the difference between the names of the bad guys and good guy. So much for dull holidays. Jewish food expert Joan Nathan, most recently author of ‘‘Quiches, Kugels and Couscous: My Search for Jewish Cooking in France,’’ says that the giving of food gifts makes Purim one of the most enjoyable and satisfying holidays for families to celebrate with their children. Nathan says that gift baskets often include fruit and plenty of baked goods, which traditionally were made to use up a household’s flour before the beginning of Passover (when baked goods are restricted). Many families, she says, have baking flurries that are akin to the way others whip up cookies ahead of Christmas. Obviously, she points out, this can be an all-inclusive family activity, but because the baked goods are being made to give as gifts, it’s an opportunity to teach children about thinking of others rather than just themselves.

Moshe Morrison, director of Kosher Foods for New York grocery chain Fairway Markets, can appreciate this. Morrison, who comes from a family where both parents were in the food business, makes sure his customers can find plenty of foods for Purim gift giving. He says that Fairway even has future plans for offering pre-packed mishloach manot. Morrison says that some of the more popular items for Purim gift baskets include the sesame candy, halvah, Elite brand chocolates (a favourite from Israel) and, of course, hamantashen, a filled cookie that is triangular in shape to represent (depending on your interpretation) either Haman’s (the bad guy) ears or his tri-cornered hat. If you like, these cookies, such as our orange-poppy seed hamantashen, are fun and easy to make at home. For the big meal, known as the Feast of Esther, many foods are included, but often vegetarian dishes made with nuts, grains, seeds and legumes are eaten to pay tribute to the fact that Queen Esther avoided eating meat; the animals were not slaughtered according to kosher tradition at the palace. These vegetarian Turkish red lentil balls are a delicious, healthy and easy way to include a taste of Persian cuisine in your own Purim feast. can poppy seed cake and pastry filling ➤1 large egg, beaten In a food processor, combine powdered sugar, flour, salt, egg yolks, butter and orange zest.

Mountie under investigation after $10,000, cocaine disappears NANAIMO, B.C. (The Canadian Press) — A Mountie in Nanaimo, B.C., is under investigation after $10,000 cash and some cocaine disappeared from an exhibit locker in the RCMP detachment. Supt. Norm McPhail says the money and drugs were seized during a drug investigation and were stored in a temporary exhibit locker. They were discovered missing during a routine movement of exhibits at the detachment in December. An officer in the Nanaimo detachment with eight years’ experience on the force has been removed from service pending an internal code of conduct investigation. A separate criminal investigation is also under way to determine what happened to the exhibits. McPhail says as those investigations proceed, he’s made several changes to the way exhibits are handled in the detachment. Brief but brilliant flash in night sky witnessed across vast stretch of Prairies Global security, economics require closer military co-operation: MacKay STANFORD, Calif. (The Canadian Press) — The defence minister says there’s a greater need for stronger partnership between Canada and the U.S. in uncertain economic and political times. But at the same time, NATO’s global partnership is in need of reform to function effectively in a complex security situation, Peter MacKay said in a set of speeches at Stanford University in California on Wednesday. Domestic security issues begin internationally and it’s best to act before they happen, MacKay said. Yet, the events of the Arab Spring show that expecting the unexpected has become the norm in preparing for global events, he said. “These wide-ranging se- curity requirements are further compounded by new fiscal realities forcing governments to make difficult budget and capability choices as they undertake their future defence investments in an effort to prepare for an uncertain future security landscape,” he said, according to a prepared text of his remarks. Strong partnerships are one way to move forward, MacKay said. “Not just to share the burdens, but because partners bring different assets, capabilities and relationships to the game,” he said. MacKay’s set of speeches at Stanford came at the invitation of former U.S. secretary of state of Condoleezza Rice. He called the Canada- United States defence relationship the one certain thing in the world today and told students, faculty and security experts he looked forward to hearing from them how the relationship can be further developed. His speeches also come as the Defence Department is expected to face major cuts in the next federal budget. MacKay is set to address the Conference of Defence Associations in Ottawa on Friday, where’s he’s expected to lay out some of the challenges facing his portfolio as all eyes are on how the military moves forward after Afghanistan. In his speeches Wednesday, MacKay highlighted the close relationship Canada and the U.S. built during their work together in Kandahar as well as Canada’s contribution to the recent NATO-led military mission in Libya. Groups like NATO are crucial in the global effort for stability, but they need updating, MacKay said. More resources need to be placed into operational capability and less into administration, he said at Stanford’s Center for International Security and Cooperation. “I believe that this is the only way to make sure that NATO stays agile and effective in a constantly evolving world and that it can continue delivering results for our common security and collective defence,” he said according to a text of his remarks.

When police first began their investigation, they said numerous bystanders watched the assault and pictures of it were circulated on the Internet. One youth pleaded guilty last December to distributing obscene material and another man, Dennis Warrington, is charged with making and distributing pornography as a result of the attack. But the sex assault charge against Colton Ashton McMorris was stayed Tuesday and the Crown has one year to gather more evidence and re-activate the charge. The teen says she believes a code of silence has prevented people who were at the party from speaking out and she begged those people to finally come forward.

Alan Hildebrand with the University of Calgary says the asteroid probably shed meteorites as it flew through the night sky. Cameras in Calgary and central Saskatchewan captured part of its four-second flight that ended near North Battleford about 8:40 p.m. Witnesses lucky enough to catch a fleeting glimpse went on Twitter to report the multi-hued flash. Hildebrand says the last fireball to cause such a stir blazed across all three prairie provinces in November 2008. It’s believed that 10-tonne meteor scattered more than 10,000 rock pieces, most of them in farm fields around Buzzard Coulee near Lloydminster. WWW.MJTIMES.SK.CA D . & D .

THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER — Almost two years after a gruesome sled dog cull, the British Columbia government has introduced another layer of protection for working dogs. The Sled Dog Code of Practice sets out standards of care for everything from health, nutrition and housing to working conditions, transportation and euthanasia. The new rules come after the B.C. chapter of the SPCA uncovered a mass grave of 56 sled dogs near Whistler, B.C., last year. Marcie Moriarty, general manager of cruelty investigations, said the regulations are a good step forward to regulate the sled dog industry and the health of working dogs. “This document, both the code and the regulations, will help inform the industry (and) provide minimum standards that will improve working dogs’ welfare.” Moriarty said the SPCA found significant concerns in some of the sled dog operations it had investigated, including traditional practices in the keeping of dogs. Moriarty, who was part of the consultation process on the code of practice, said the use of continuous tethering has been one of the main concerns about the industry. “We fought very hard that the regulations required at the very minimum once-daily opportunities to be off tether for both socialization and exercise,” she said. “We’d like to see a day when all sled dog operations go towards a penningtype setup.” The treatment of B.C. sled dogs came into sharp focus last January after the leak of a worker’s compensation claim about a man with post-traumatic stress disorder after killing the animals. The case drew international outrage and sparked a government task force that resulted in tougher laws and regulations. Documents describe a bloody scene where some of the 56 dogs had been shot, while others had their throats slit. The SPCA is recommending one charge of causing unnecessary pain and suffering to an animal against sled dog operator Bob Fawcett. The Crown, which makes the decision on charges in British Columbia, hasn’t yet approved any allegations against the man. This is the second major change to animal cruelty laws since the bodies of the dogs were dug up. While the SPCA sup- An exhumation of a mass grave of sled dogs is performed near Whistler, B.C., May 8, 2011. Almost two years after a gruesome sled dog cull, the British Columbia government has introduced another layer of protection for working dogs. CP/BC SPCA handout photo by Lorie Chortyk ports the changes, Moriarty said the government hasn’t given the SPCA the tools to enforce the code. “The provincial government has made it clear it does not intend to provide any funding for cruelty investigations this year,” she said. “If the regulation is to be enforced, the government will have to allocate funds needed to make this happen.” Barrister, Solicitor & Notary Public - Real Estate and Mortgages - Wills and Estates - Powers of Attorney & Health Care Directives - Companies and Small Business 84 Athabasca Street West Phone: 693-7288 www.walperlaw.com Fax: 692-6760 5464977/020112 TERRI THEODORE Expert Electrical Work Licensed • Bonded • Insured Serving Saskatchewan for 15 Years Four phenomenal singers and musicians: Sylvia Tyson, Cindy Church, Caitlin Hanford and Gwen Swick.

(AP) — Newark Mayor Cory Booker and his top police official say the city was misled by the New York Police Department and never would have authorized wholesale spying on Muslims if they had known about it. Booker, a rising star in the Democratic Party, says he was offended to read a 2007 NYPD report that catalogued all his city’s mosques and Muslim businesses. Police Director Samuel PROTEST IN CHILE DeMaio said the NYPD simply asked local police to show them around the city. He says Newark officers had no idea it was part of the NYPD’s effort to build databases on where Muslims eat, work, shop and pray. 12024MM00 Russia warns against ‘hasty conclusions’ over failed Iran nuke talks, West critical of Tehran VIENNA, Austria (The Associated Press) — Russia says the world should not draw “hasty conclusions” over Iran’s most recent rebuff of U.N. attempts to probe suspicions that it is working on nuclear arms. But Western powers are criticizing Tehran. The reactions Wednesday came after the International Atomic Energy Agency acknowledged renewed failure in trying to investigate suspicions of covert Iranian nuclear weapons work. An IAEA team had hoped to talk over the weekend to key Iranian scientists suspected of working on the alleged weapons program. It also wanted to inspect documents related to nuclear work and secure commitments for future visits. But mission head Herman Nackaerts acknowledged his team “could not find a way forward” in negotiations with Iranian officials. Iran denies wanting nuclear arms.

Kinky Boots will make its world premiere at the Bank of America Theatre in October ahead of a possible Broadway transfer, producers Daryl Roth and Hal Luftig said Wednesday. The musical is based on the 2005 British movie about a failing shoe factory that’s struggling following the death of its founder until it finds new life in fetish footwear. Fierstein, known for his witty musicals like La Cage Aux Folles and Newsies, pushed to have Lauper make her theatrical debut with music and lyrics for Kinky Boots. “She has one of those big-fat-all-over-the-placeyou-can’t-hide-it-hearts,” he said. “There are just some people that you can’t hide it with at all, and she’s one of those people.” Lauper, the singer-songwriter behind such hits as True Colors and Girls Just Want to Have Fun, jumped in with a full score that will surprise people, Fierstein said. “There was a lot of chasing her around because 24 Sunday Times Sunday, February 26, 2012 ENTERTAINMENT WWW.MJTIMES.SK.CA IN BRIEF British queen honours actress Helena Bonham Carter Bonham Carter was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire, or CBE, by the queen at a Buckingham Palace ceremony.

Lohan, 25, now has to work 14 days at the morgue and attend five therapy sessions before the judge ends her probation on a 2007 drunken driving case that has dogged Lohan for years. She is due back in court on March 29 for what could be her final court appearance if she stays out of trouble. Lohan would remain on informal probation for a case filed after she took a necklace without permission in January 2011 but would no longer have to report to a probation officer or appear in court for frequent updates. ➤Actress Jennifer Aniston poses atop her new star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles, Wednesday.
