Myth busting part 2

A
n
he topic of waste sorting in public spaces has received some media attention this month; a CBC radio
show explored the issue of litter in the city, and public waste containers were one of the topics. I was quite surprised to hear that of the 1,300 waste containers maintained
by the city, only 10 offered the option of sorting waste. It
would appear that in this case, the myth that people will not
sort waste in public has been confused with fact.
In Lunenburg County, 95 per cent of all waste containers
offer the option to sort your waste. It is something that the
municipalities in this county have
Lid W AST
committed resources to, and it pays
E

off. Every year I look at how waste is
sorted in public spaces, and I can tell
you that given the opportunity, people
will sort their waste in parks, on
walking trails and at beaches.
For people to properly sort waste,
you must give them the correct tools.
• The bins must be clustered together or be a sorting station.
• They must have signs with approRegional Educator priate photos of waste.
• Colour coding is important. Blue
Region 6 Solid
for recycling, black for garbage and
Waste Management green for compost.
• The bins must be maintained.
Overflowing containers send the message that nobody cares and filthy containers discourage people from using them.
• The size of the holes matter. The holes must be small
enough that people can’t shove all of their waste into one
hole.
If these guidelines are followed, we find that most public
waste is pretty well sorted.
The sorting at these bins is rarely perfect, but if you
don’t give the public the option to sort, the sorting percentage is 0. Indeed, we do some dumping of household waste at
these bins, but that accounts for only a small fraction of the
waste.
There are some problem areas where waste sorting is less
than perfect. But again, these are rare situations. On the
other hand, we often come across public waste bins where
the waste is sorted as well — if not better — than what we
find at the curb on collection days.
People will sort waste in public when given the opportunity. That is a fact that we can prove. I think our responsibility goes further. How can a municipality require people to
sort their waste at home and work, using municipal laws to
compel them to, yet not give them the option on municipal
property? I am happy to say that this is not an issue we have
to wrestle with in Lunenburg County.

Maybe it was the lyrics to a song or a
segment on a television show, but you
are moved to action.

Gemini, now is a good time to plan an outing with
family members. It’s been awhile since you’ve made
some memories together, and your schedule affords
you this opportunity.
CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20
Obligations at home could temporarily stall work
plans, Capricorn. Fortunately, you have understanding bosses who are willing to give you the
time you need.
CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22
How do you know how others will react to your
requests if you never drum up the courage to ask,
Cancer? Let your feelings be known this week and
take a risk.
AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18
Aquarius, your friends are great sources of unconditional support. Lean on them for advice as you
make an important decision in the coming weeks.
LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23

haven’t seen in some time. Make the most of this
opportunity to catch up and recall old times.

Libra, an opportunity to jump on the career path
you always had in mind for yourself is
about to present itself. Do everything in
your power to make the job yours.

Why do dogs snore?
S
ometimes your dog may seem to
snore louder than other people in
your household. Any animal that
breathes and sleeps might snore. This
can be very disruptive for everyone.
Snoring is caused by vibrations in the
respiratory system which is moving air
during sleep. The uvula and soft palate
might obstruct the airway which produces the noise.
The obstructions themselves could be
caused by fat gathering in the throat, ob-
struction of the nasal passages, tissues
in the mouth and throat touching, jaw
tension, weakness of the throat, or the
position the body is in during sleep.
Genetics can play a role in snoring.
Dogs with short muzzles and broad
skulls are prone to snoring due to a condition called brachycephalic syndrome.
The breeds most likely to have the condition are Pugs, Bulldogs, Boxers, Pekingese, Boston Terriers, Chow Chows, Shih
Tzu’s, and English Toy Spaniels.

Help Prevent Heart Attacks with
Vitamin C and Lysine Powder
W. Gifford-Jones, MD
W
hy is heart attack
the number one
killer in this country?
Ninety-nine
percent
of doctors say it’s due
to
atherosclerosis
(hardening of arteries)
and that cholesterol
lowering
drugs
are
the primary way to
treat it. But I suggest
cardiologists have closed
minds and are ignoring facts that could save
thousands of North Americans from coronary
attack.
Vitamin C is required to manufacture healthy
collagen, the glue that holds coronary cells
together, just like mortar is needed for bricks.
Lysine, like steel rods in cement, makes collagen
stronger. Two-time Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Linus
Pauling reported twenty-five years ago it takes a
mere 10 milligrams to prevent scurvy, but several
thousand to prevent heart attack.
Williams Stehbens, Professor of Anatomy at
Wellington University in New Zealand, proved
Pauling was right. Stebhens’ research showed that
coronary arteries closest to the heart are under the
greatest pressure. This causes collagen to fracture
resulting in the formation of a blood clot and
death.
(CLD’s). I was also aware that patients have
died from CLDs. Others have developed kidney,
liver and muscle complications. I also believed
the research of Pauling and Stehbens irrefutable.
Now, the work of Dr. Bush has convinced me my
decision was prudent.
I knew that Dr. Graveline, a physician and NASA
astronaut, had twice developed transient global
amnesia from taking cholesterol lowering drugs
amounts of exercise could get those
extra pounds off and help you and your
dog get better sleep.
A few other things you might try to
help reduce snoring in your dog are to
give him a pillow to raise
his head when sleeping; provide a round bed
to change his posture
(curling up allows his
airways to expand); use a
humidifier to moisten the
air; change the room he
sleeps in if it’s possible
the room contains allergens (perhaps
move him to a room without carpet or
curtains or with thin ones). Unfortunately, there are no mouth guards or
CPAP machines for dogs like there are
for people.
Pets are negatively impacted by poor
sleep just as we humans are. Your dog
can become tired, irritable and lose some
of his ability to concentrate. A cranky
dog isn’t much fun to live with and you
want him to be as healthy as possible.
If the snoring has come on suddenly or
is accompanied by wheezing or rattling
noises, a vet visit is in order as this may
very well be an indicator of an underlying disease.
A good night’s sleep for your dog will
most likely help you to get one also!

But to take large doses of vitamin C and lysine
requires swallowing many pills daily. It’s a tall
order for those who dislike swallowing one pill. So
for several years I’ve been trying to find a company
that would manufacture a combination of vitamin
C and lysine powder. Now Medi-C Plus™
is available at health food stores and specialty
pharmacies.
The dosage for the Medi-C Plus combination
is one flat scoop mixed with water or juice with
breakfast and the evening meal. Those at greater
risk should take one flat scoop three times a day.
This column does not recommend that those
taking CLDs should stop them. That is a decision
that can only be made by patients and doctors.
As for me – I bet my life on vitamin C and lysine!
I turned 90 this year.
Dr. Sydney Bush, an English researcher, has now
proven that vitamin C can reverse atherosclerosis.
Bush took retinal photographs, then started
his patients on high doses of vitamin C and
lysine. One year later additional pictures showed
atherosclerosis had regressed in retinal arteries.
Sixteen years ago following my own coronary
attack, cardiologists claimed it was sheer madness
for me to refuse cholesterol-lowering drugs.
Instead, I decided to take high doses of vitamin
C plus lysine with breakfast and the evening meal.
There isn’t much you can do about the
shape of your dog’s face and the snoring takes place as the windpipe flattens.
These dogs will often reposition themselves during sleep in an effort to get in
more oxygen. Occasionally, in extreme cases,
surgery is required to
address the problem
(if the dog can’t sleep
because he can’t breathe
properly).
You may be able to
alleviate the problem
if the snoring is due to allergies such
as dust, pollen or smoke. Make sure
you clean your pet’s bedding daily and
vacuum regularly to keep the dust in
your house down. You can walk your dog
in the early morning or late afternoon
when pollen counts are lower and traffic
is lighter. If you smoke, do it outside and
away from your pet (this is a good idea
anyway since second hand smoke is dangerous for everyone and your pet’s smaller body makes it even harder on him).
Nasal obstructions could be the result
of digging, rolling in the grass or even
eating (especially in dogs that tend to
eat very fast). Obstruction could also
be caused by tumors or cysts which can
likely be removed by surgery.
Medications such as antihistamines,
muscle relaxers, sedatives or pain pills
might cause temporary snoring in some
pets.
As with humans, obesity can also exacerbate snoring. The additional weight
can produce excess throat tissue that can
block airways. A healthy diet and proper

Living life a little bit louder
How to buy school clothes
without busting your budget
arents often note that kids seem to grow
like weeds. Pants that once reached to
the tops of a youngster’s feet quickly
become too short, while once-loose shirts may
soon become too snug. Many parents find
themselves regularly in children’s clothing
departments stocking up on the basics, which
can put quite a dent in already stretched-thin
budgets.
Although children’s wardrobes are added to
at various times of the year, the bulk of shopping occurs just before the school year begins.
Though clothing can be expensive, families
need not bust their budgets when shopping for
kids’ clothing. By shopping smart and concentrating on fashion staples, it’s easier to stretch
money further.
• Spread out purchases. Shopping early allows parents to make the most of sales. Warm
weather clothing generally goes on sale in July
to make room for new fall lines. Considering
the first few months of school still may be
warm, short-sleeved shirts will still have utility and are generally less expensive than sweaters and sweatshirts. Staggering purchases also
enables parents to develop a clothing allowance
each and every month instead of having one
large bill at a certain point in the year. Parents
can even add to their children’s wardrobes during the holiday season, when clothes tend to
get reduced again for holiday sales.
• Don’t discount hand-me-downs. It’s
trendy to recycle clothing and also to be environmentally conscious by putting items to
good use again and again. Aside from you and
your wallet, no one will know if your child is
wearing a secondhand pair of pants or a brand
new pair. Many school moms are anxious to
swap clothing with others to lessen their own
financial burdens with children’s clothing.
Start a clothing swap with a group of friends,
and you may find you have more than you need
in the way of clothes for the kids.
• Take stock of what you already have.
How many times have you run out to the grocery store for a missing ingredient only to
find that very item buried at the back of the
pantry? The same thing happens with kids’
clothes. Before taking kids clothes shopping,
take inventory of their closets. Have little ones
try on clothes to see which items still fit and
which can be discarded or donated. Make a list
of the items you need to cut down on impulse
spending at the store.
• Invest in the right high-quality pieces.
Spending a fortune for a trendy pair of pants
that may end up getting ruined on the playground is not the best way to shop for kids’
clothing. However, investing in a quality pair
of shoes that will last much of the year is a
good investment. Know when to splurge and
when it’s okay to shop at the discount store.
• Stock up on staples. A straight-leg cut
of jeans, some solid coloured polo shirts and
an A-line dress or skirt are some classic foundation pieces for children’s wardrobes. Such
items tend to last longer than trendy items that
may only last a few months before the next
trend arrives.
• Learn to layer. Layering items can make
pieces look like new by putting them together
in different combinations. Layering a summer
T-shirt under a fall hoodie gets use out of two
different season’s worth of clothes. It also enables kids to be comfortable during unpredictable weather.
• Leave it to the kids. Parents often worry
about what other parents will think of their
own children’s clothing. Children do not
typically worry about such things until their
preteen or teenage years. You may spend less
money on clothing simply because your child
has a few favourite shirts and pants he or she
wears over and over. That’s less laundry for
you and less money you have to spend on new
clothes.
I
t’s funny how when you’re a kid, your cousins are like your best
friends. You meet up at your grandparents’ house and other family
functions, but as you get older, they become strangers.
My mother has an enormous extended family, with 10 siblings, giving me dozens of cousins. Many of whom I wouldn’t recognize if I
ran into at the grocery store, and only a few who I see more frequently — mostly at family weddings and funerals. I had one such funeral,
as we laid to rest our cousin Kevin, which meant another family reunion so to speak.
The minister spoke of Kevin and his frustration over the hand he was dealt, losing both of
his parents far too young, and having experienced some disappointments in life.
That’s just not the Kevin I remember. And
it’s not how I choose to remember him.
When I was a little girl, I would spend a
couple of weeks in the summer at my aunt
Linda’s house (Kevin’s mother) on Blomidon
beach. Without a doubt, it was paradise for
any kid. We’d dig for clams, play in the Bay of
Fundy clay when the tide was out and play in
the water when the tide was in. Kevin had an
apartment in town but would frequently visit
his mom, his siblings and the beach that he
loved so much.
That was back in the 80s and the Kevin I
remember looked just like the picture displayed by his urn. He was very handsome with a big, devilish smile,
feathery light-brown hair, and kind eyes with a personality to match.
I remember when he would arrive at aunt Linda’s for a meal. He’d
pull up in the driveway wearing a jean jacket with Honeymoon Suite
playing loudly in his car. The energy would change instantaneously.
My aunt’s distinctive and contagious laughter would become more
loud and frequent, people got happier and the music got a little faster
as the eight tracks would change from Conway Twitty to something a
little more ‘rock ‘n’ roll.’
He’d arrive giving hugs and kisses, usually with friends in tow.
They’d drink a few beers and tell a few stories of parties and harmless antics of typical young men. We’d all walk down the cliff and to
the beach for a bonfire.
Every night that Kevin arrived at my aunt’s, a party would follow
— and that is how I will remember him. He turned the volume up a
notch, and if you ask me, not a bad way to be remembered.

R. WALLACE: Over the Christmas break, my family and I went
to London to visit my grandparents. My mother was born in England
and my parents met when they both
were students at Surrey University.
While we were in England we went to
Blackpool, a resort city on the ocean in
the west of England. We decided to have
our fortunes told by a gypsy fortune
teller.
Neither of us believed that she actually could predict the future, but we did
it just for fun. We paid five pounds each,
and expected to have a few laughs. Mom
went first and the gypsy looked at some
cards and then told her that her husband
(my dad) was going to get a promotion
at work. Two months later after we got
home, Dad was named executive vice
president of sales.
Now I’m really worried because the

he might get mad and end our
relationship.
When I read about psychics
at the library, I learned that
there is documented proof that
some people really have the
power to predict the future. Please tell
me what you think.
Nameless, Hartford, Conn.
NAMELESS: Don’t change the way
you act around your boyfriend. He was
attracted to who you were before you
visited the gypsy. Just be yourself and
let your relationship develop at its own
speed. The gypsy may have scored a
lucky hit by “predicting” your dad’s
promotion, but, in fact, she can no more
predict the future than I can.
What’s at work here is the power of
suggestion. Telling you that you’re going
to break up with your boyfriend is the
sort of thing that can easily become a
self-fulfilling prophecy. You become so
afraid it will happen that your nervousness helps bring it about.
If you find yourself unable to get the
gypsy’s “prediction” out of your mind,
ask yourself this question: What’s she
doing in Blackpool earning $8 a fortune
when she could become a millionaire
placing bets based on her knowledge of
future events?
DR. WALLACE: I am
aware that illegal drugs,
when mixed with alcohol,
can cause serious physical
ailments, including death.
But my boyfriend claims that
the effects of marijuana are not multiplied by alcohol. Is this true?
Pat, Boston, Mass.
PAT: It’s true that marijuana’s effects
are not compounded by alcohol, but
marijuana’s drug effects will stay in the
body long after the effects of the alcohol
have passed.

many restaurants offer special summer
menus filled with sunshine and vitamins.
Dishes filled
with sunshine
T
he long, hot days of summer
encourage restaurants to fill
their menus with light, healthy
dishes that even the most careful calorie
counter can enjoy without feeling guilty.
Sun-filled dishes, full of vitamins and
low in calories, can be found just about
anywhere, but don’t get distracted by the
high-calorie dishes available on menus.
Summer dining often means enjoying drinks with friends, so let yourself
be tempted by a white or rosé wine or
a light, refreshing beer when relaxing
on your favourite restaurant patio. Of
course, there’s also the option of a cool
and fruity summer cocktail, another
great choice when soaking up the sunshine in good company.
When the time comes to choose your
main course, you’re sure to find plenty
of healthy suggestions on the menu. As
you browse the refreshing wraps, salads,
and grilled fish, look for a balanced meal
filled with all the right elements: carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
Among the most popular dishes to be
found on the menus of trendy summer
restaurants are grills and packets, also
referred to as “en papillote.” But the
very best cooking method for trimming
calories and maintaining a slim figure is
steaming, a method that also preserves
all naturally occurring vitamins. Wok
cooking is another fun way to eat sensibly when you’re dining out. In some
restaurants you can even participate in
the preparation of your dish by choosing the ingredients and garnishes on
the advice of a chef, who will then make
quite a show of cooking everything in
front of you. This cooking method is
renowned for its rapidity, healthfulness,
and economy.
A perfect way to finish off a summer
meal is with a light frozen dessert, such
as a house-made gelato, ice-cream, or
sorbet.

bus tour of four Lunenburg County organizations
will mark the fourth and final day of this year’s
Growing Green Sustainability Festival, taking place
from August 21 to 24.
The all-day tour on Sunday, August 24 will include stops
at Windhorse Farm, Lunenburg County Winery, the Morton
Centre and Terra Beata Cranberry Farm. You can board the
bus at the Hodge Podge Community Garden at Aberdeen
Green Park in Bridgewater at 9:30 a.m. From there you will
enjoy the scenic landscape of Lunenburg County while
learning and having fun at some of the area’s most interesting local businesses.
While visiting Windhorse Farm you will find a sustainably managed forest and working farm that is the longest
standing demonstration of sustainable forestry in Canada.
The farm managers consider ecosystem health in all of
their decision-making processes.
“Windhorse Farm is known throughout Nova Scotia as
being a business that demonstrates sustainable practices
in everything they do,” says festival coordinator Meghan
Doucette, who is very excited to visit all of the stops on the
tour, this one in particular.
The Lunenburg County Winery is one
of the few wineries located on the South
Shore and produces an array of fruit
wines. In recent years, Nova Scotia has
made a name for itself throughout the
world for its high quality wines. This
family operated farm has been passed
down through three generations and
operates a blueberry u-pick in addition
to their winemaking business. The tour
will take place during blueberry picking
season, and participants are welcome to
bring a few dollars to partake in the upick! The next stop is a picnic lunch and
what would be a better addition to your
meal than freshly picked blueberries?
Heckmans Island is home to the last
two tour stops. The Morton Centre is a
natural education center, run in partnership between the Bluenose Coastal Action Foundation and Acadia University.
The Centre hosts day camps for children
throughout the summer, providing them
with an opportunity to be in nature and
learn about ecosystems on the island.
The final stop will be at Terra Beata
Cranberry Farm, where David and Evelyn Ernst have been growing cranberries since 1998. They produce a range of
cranberry-based products but their most
unique offering is their concentrated
juices! Most cranberry juice on the market is full of added sugar, but their offering is pure cranberry juice, which has
many health benefits!
There will be a picnic stop, where a
shared light lunch will be provided at
Indian Falls in Newburne, and a mid-afternoon comfort stop at the Visitor Information Centre in Blockhouse. There is
no charge for the tour, but donations are
welcome and will go towards tour costs.
More information can be found at
http://www.growinggreenfest.com. To
reserve your place on the bus contact the
Growing Green Festival Coordinator at
growinggreenfest@gmail.com, or call 5430434. On the day of the tour call 527-6717
or visit the Municipality of the District of
Lunenburg booth at the Saturday Street
Fair.
