THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 2013

Jeers to the operation of the traffi c lights at Fourth Street and Kensington

Avenue. It seems the left turn arrow only stays on for a max of two to three

vehicles to make the turn before it changes and allows the westbound

lineup of vehicles to go through.

Jeers to wasting money on bothering to post speed limits. The potholes are

taking care of that. To drive on any street in the city, if you even go the

speed limit you will not have a vehicle in driving condition when you are done.

Jeers to having a snow removal budget which is probably comparable to

Phoenix’s or Los Angeles’.

Jeers to the water saving techniques in the ladies’ change room at the pool by

placing pails under the leaks and letting the pails overfl ow and hoping that

someone will mop up the water.

Jeers to those who decided it is cheaper to replace all the pavement in the city instead of cleaning the ice and

snow off the streets.

Jeers to the stores that are not ordering anymore ice melt.

Cheers and a big thank you to our wonderful neighbours on Clasky Drive for all your snowblowing efforts this

winter.

Cheers to the City of Estevan free after-school program that has opened the

doors to the multi-purpose room at the leisure centre to kids ages six to 12

from 4 to 5 p.m. three days a week with lots to keep them active.

Cheers to Henders Drugs for having a registered nurse clinic on Thursday mornings and for the great customer service that the whole staff provides.

It’s beginning to feel a lot like spring, and there are few signs the seasons are changing, quite like get-ting your ticket to the theatre.

The Souris Valley Theatre box offi ce opened on Monday, with tick-ets going on sale for the fi rst time in almost two years, after the past two seasons were awash as a result of foul weather. The wet spring in 2011 left fl ood damage in and around the theatre grounds at the Woodlawn Regional Park location.

But theatregoers can fi nally look forward to booking their seat for this summer’s slate of performances. Ad-vance tickets for A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline and I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change are available by calling the box offi ce at 306-461-6869 or by ordering online at sourisval-leytheatre.ca

Jocelyn Anderson, theatre admin-istrator, noted nobody at the theatre had run the online box offi ce before so people could expect some early bugs, but assured everyone that they will have any potential issues fi gured

out soon. The season will kickoff with the

Patsy Cline show running June 13 to June 23, while the second production is set to run from July 5 to July 28.

Anderson said most work has been completed at the theatre.

“The concession is fi xed up, and the mobile home is paid for, It just has to be delivered,” said Anderson, referring to the new mobile home that will be used for dressing rooms.

Following the hiatus of nearly three full years, the theatre will be opening earlier than it has in the past. Anderson noted the productions previ-ously started in mid-July, but this year will get going by mid-June.

“Everything will start moving a little earlier in May,” she said, which will be in time for the fi rst June curtain.

The theatre was rolling out a mobile box offi ce in 2011, before the fl ooding occurred. Anderson said it would be nice to get it out in the community for visibility reasons, but there are some things they need to make sure they have in place, like

ensuring they have Internet access inside the mobile booth before they can set that up.

There is a third play scheduled for the summer, called Rider Girl, but Anderson said that is being put on separate to their other shows. It is an independent production and tickets will be going on sale for it on May 1. The one-woman show will run from July 31 to Aug. 4.

“We’re not actually producing that one. We’re bringing that one in, so it will be going on sale a little bit later,” said Anderson. “We’re still getting a tailgating party ready for Rider Girl.”

New theatre director David Leyshon, will arrive sometime in May, said Anderson, who noted rehearsals will begin in June.

“Our summer students are going to be here in May. We’re doing some school workshops in May and June for our summer theatre camps, so both of our summer students will be around. We’ll be cleaning everything up, making sure it’s ready for the shows.”

Souris Valley Theatre back with box offi ce

Tickets for the 2013 Souris Valley Theatre season went on sale on April 1. Tickets for A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline and I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change are available, while tickets for the in-dependent production of Rider Girl will go on sale May 1.

Wetlands have long been something farmers have struggled with.

The struggle was straightforward in the past, revolving around how to ef-fectively eliminate them from a fi eld. A wetland was simply acres that could not be planted, and that was seen as a detri-ment to a farm operation.

There were, of course reasons for that view, beginning with the quota system of delivering grain that used to be based on delivering an amount of bushels per cultivated acres.

It was a system that really forced Prairie farmers into setting the plow to hundreds of acres of land which would have better been left as wetlands, riparian areas or woodland.

The quota system may have changed, but based on economic factors, wetlands are still being drained from fi elds.

When grain and oilseed prices are high, as they are today, farmers reasonably want to grow the maximum bushels, and so they seek to claim every acre possible.

In times of low prices, it comes down to maximizing bushels to maximize re-turns, and that again means wanting every acre possible in production.

Then there is the pressure of ever-

larger equipment.Things such as potholes, sloughs,

and even shelterbelts and tree bluffs become problematic in the face of ever larger equipment. Manoeuvring around potholes with a 60-foot-plus cultivator is not something farmers want to be doing.

So there have always been good rea-sons for farmers changing the landscape, but draining wetlands, while perhaps posi-tive for an individual farmer, is not good for the overall health of the land.

Ducks Unlimited Canada research sci-entist Pascal Badiou told a Prairie Flood Management and Mitigation Seminar in Yorkton that the loss of natural wetlands is having an effect on water quality on the Canadian Prairies.

“Globally we have lost 50 per cent of the world’s wetlands in the last 100-years,” said Badiou, who added that in the Cana-dian Prairie region, an estimated 90 per

cent of naturally occurring wetlands have been lost.

Badiou detailed that wetlands protect waterways further downstream from taking on the full effect of nutrient load leeching from a larger area because of drainage.

The wetlands also offer additional storage in extreme rain and melt events, he said.

So there are now more stringent rules regarding new drainage projects. That is good for a watershed, but begs the ques-tion that if a slough is good for a wider area, should not that area pay the farmer something for maintaining a wetland he could drain and farm?

Badiou said he wasn’t sure if farm-ers maintaining the status quo should be compensated, but it would seem if you legislate that you can’t drain, then society should pay some compensation.

Based on the costs they might face, it is a debate that scares government when you hear Badiou talk about Lake Win-nipeg being the sickest lake in the world, and nutrient load from the land being the culprit. What is the cost of such damage? In that context, paying farmers may be a small price to pay.

Wait six hours after eating before go-ing any further, some words below may make you lose your lunch.

There is a bizarre but growing lin-guistic phenomenon known as word aversion, and if you can’t keep food down after reading the word moist, you are so affl icted with this illness.

Some words people don’t like be-cause they are “bad” words. Those are words people dislike purely for their meaning and are generally not words used among civilized company.

There are the obvious ones, like a certain short and to-the-point word that rhymes with a football play. You know the one. I had a conversation with a college professor in school about words we don’t like to say. That word came up, obviously, and I recall him saying with a scrunched up face, “It’s just so coarse.”

I agreed with him at the time. It was one of two words on my don’t-ever-say-for-any-reason-ever list. I have since thrown out that list after whittling it down to zero words and freeing myself to say what I damn well please.

Word aversion refers not to words we have permanently scribbled on the

naughty list, but instead refers to those words so unpleasant they create a psycho-logical and physical response. Words like moist. Yeah, moist just makes you cringe in the dirtiest, most uncomfortable way.

You could take a shower to cleanse yourself after saying that word, but that would only further perpetuate that moist-ness. Ick!

Word aversion is all about words that just feel wrong or distasteful. A lot of people struggle with the word moist, but if you’re OK with it, there may certainly be more that will set off an interior alarm forcing you to cover your ears and gag.

Word aversion isn’t about what a word means, or even about the connota-tions or concrete associations we have with a word, but instead the inexplicable impression a word gives us.

Examples of words people have

particularly strong aversion to are cor-nucopia, fudge and ointment. Say them out loud to see if you feel the same way. Try pugilist if none of those tickle your fancy, because it’s a real gag-refl ex in-ducer as well.

An article from Cracked awhile ago included moist, along with jowls, bul-bous, yolk, slurp and pulp as words that should be stricken from our vocabulary because of queasy feelings they give some people. We used to burn books, but now we settle for individual words.

Nothing I have read makes it very clear at what point some of us started to became nauseated at the sight, sound or even thought of everyday words. Some say these words are uncomfortable be-cause of their “mouthfeel,” which has become just another word that people can’t stomach.

Luckily for me, I have yet to encoun-ter a word that inspires a physical reaction of disgust. Working with words on a daily basis, it would be a pretty unfortunate professional hazard to not be able to bring myself to type out dollop.

It’s unclear why these word phobias pop up in certain people.

The simple pleasures of winter can be pretty dull, with a cold afternoon marathon of your favourite TV series or maybe an intense euchre game in front of a roaring wood fi replace. It’s the simple pleasures we experience in spring and summer that I love, even though they aren’t so simple the rest of the year.

There isn’t much quite like a coffee on a Saturday or Sunday morning on the back deck, sipping several cups and fl ipping through a book or a magazine. Even pouring over the daily crossword is a peaceful hour spent chatting with a friend or family member while sucking back some caffeine. This simple pleasure is all about a little quiet time and a good brew, relaxing before a hectic day begins.

It’s the calm before the storm, whatever the storm may be on your busy weekend. Some people like to relax in their off-hours while other people like to be a little

more adventurous. To each his own, but whether you’re skydiving or lounging in a hammock with a novel, it’s how you get away.

Hiking and canoeing are more up my alley than the adventure getaways. I tend to seek tranquility more than a rush of blood and a pounding heartbeat.

With spring comes golf, and while it isn’t the most simple of pleasures, because of how cripplingly expensive it can be, it is still pretty easy to just go and hit balls. It’s a great way to wake up in the morning. Satisfy your coffee fi x, and then go fi nd some scrub balls.

I had grandparents liv-ing on a farm just outside of town when I was growing up, so it was always cheap and easy to take the clubs out there and hit discarded balls into the bush.

We aren’t quite there yet this spring, but we should be soon.

— Jordan Baker

This one is easy. There is one, single joy of spring that puts all others to shame. No, it isn’t the fresh green grass, or the smell in the air. It isn’t being able to enjoy a meal on a restaurant patio. It isn’t that fi rst trip to the driving range.

It’s being able to wear the same outfi t outdoors as you do inside. Think about it. All winter we’re forced to stuff our stylish clothing under jackets and scarves. When

outdoors during the summer, we try to wear as little clothing as possible, which isn’t very pleasant when transitioning indoors to air conditioning.

This is the same simple pleasure that I delight in in the fall. No jackets. Not heavy scarves or mittens. Just a T-shirt and a pair of jeans. How perfect.

Spring is the time of year when it’s completely appropriate to wear a ton of fl o-ral, without the risk of someone suggesting you look like your grandma’s curtains. Having to wear a jacket can take away from your overall look. For example, I hate it when I’ve put together an outfi t that looks great, but completely clashes with any of my jackets. When it’s a great spring day and a jacket isn’t necessary, you’re free and clear to dress however you please.

Also a perk, not wearing a jacket means not needing somewhere to stash it when you warm up. Some of the worst things about winter is the need to constantly fi nd a spot to hang your coat when you go indoors or if you’re in the mall and you’re forced to carry your jacket around the entire time you shop. The other alternative is leaving your jacket in the car, but then you risk freezing to death as you run into the mall.

Spring is a splendid season, made even more lovely by the fact that outerwear is entirely optional.

Good news people: last week I let Boardwalk know I will no lon-ger be living in this apartment as of April 30, moving on to bigger and better things, and bidding farewell to the troubles of this place. Also worth noting, my ants are back in full force. I’ve let Boardwalk know, but I’m a little skeptical that much will get done before I move out, so it should be a fun four weeks.

There are lots of things I’m not going to miss about this place, including the loud neighbours, lack of dishwasher and penchant for attracting insects and bats. I am, however, going to miss its proxim-ity to the university. Not that I’m

going to be attending school any-more as of April 11 (Yes! Go me!), but sometimes the atmosphere is nice. Lots of young people; lots of nearby conveniences that are meant to draw in young people.

One thing I have mixed feel-ings about is the fact that I’ll be decreasing my daily time as a pedestrian signifi cantly. Living so close to the university, I always walked to and from school, which guaranteed me a solid 25 min-utes of speed walking every day (because I never leave my house on time). The new place is a little less centrally-located, and I won’t spend as much time pounding the

pavement. Plus, it’s a longer drive to my gym, which equals a little less physical activity for me.

Also, I’ll be losing my pedes-trian mindset. If you’ve ever held up traffi c because you know you have the right of way, you know what I’m talking about. There’s an addictive kind of power in knowing that once you step off the curb, you run the show. Vehicles are legally

obligated to let you fi nish your stroll across the street, no matter how much time it takes. I have yet to abuse that power, because I’m always forced to walk quickly (running late, always), but I know all about the seductive pedestrian power.

It’s the opposite of the feel-ing of being a driver forced to yield to pedestrians. Living in a high-pedestrian traffi c area, I’m familiar with this feeling as well. When you’re sitting behind the wheel of a machine that has all the capability of blowing past that slow-walking pedestrian, it can be diffi cult to handle his smirking face

as he texts on his cellphone and ticks away your green light time. But the law says you must, even though sometimes it’s tempting to creep up and use your bumper to push him a little bit faster — not that I would ever do that.

Tonaya Marr can be reached by e-mail all the time. Her e-mail address is [email protected]. This e-mail address doesn’t change, unlike her home address, which will soon be changing. You can also reach Tonaya on Twitter @TonayaMarr. She changed her Twitter name once, but doesn’t anticipate another change in the near future.

• If you’re expecting your fi rst child, heed this bit of advice: Assemble and otherwise try out complicated devices right away, while you have the time to learn how to work them. New dad Dan had a heck of a time trying to

My mom called me the other day and asked if I wanted some movies - fi ve plastic tubs worth. They no longer have a functioning VHS player, and it seems that those bargain-bin tapes have piled up.

Sorry, I told her. Our last two VHS players have died, too. We have two large tubs full of VHS tapes as well, and I don’t know what to do with them.

I searched Walmart.ca to see if they still carry VHS players. There’s one Toshiba VHS/DVD combo unit listed, but it’s out of stock, and not sold in stores. Besides, its ratings only gave it one out of fi ve stars. That one rating noted it stopped working after four months.

Costco.ca’s search for VHS returned this: “No results were found for ‘vhs.’ Did you mean ‘vacs?’”

That’s kinda funny, when you think of it.

Let’s try Audio Video Unlimited - avu.ca. “No results were found for your search ‘vhs,’” it said, mean-ing that it’s not “unlimited” after all.

Ditto for Audioware-house.ca.

We had a winner at Visions.ca. One model, another Toshiba, is in “lim-ited quantities,” and on sale for $88.

The last movie I bought on VHS was Enemy at the Gates. I eventually bought it on DVD. Several VHS movies probably won’t be replaced, however, even if I do fi nd them in the $5 bin at WalMart. So which do I upgrade? The Alien movies box set with the fi rst four movies? Aren’t they up to eight or so now, including Predator crossovers? I can’t keep track. What about Twister? How can you have a movie collection without Twister? Wait, Michelle says we have that on DVD now.

Saving Private Ryan was on TV the other day, so I PVRed it. But I can’t keep it on the PVR hard drive forever. And I can’t play the tape, either. Too bad you can’t PVR recordings to thumb drives. I’m sure it’s possible, they just won’t let you do it.

This adventure in spring cleaning resulted in me dragging my wife to my offi ce to go through these tubs to cull some of it. Tape recordings of Star

Trek Voyager episodes got pitched, but documentaries on 9/11 stayed.

My sister gave our kids her very extensive collection of Disney movies on tape. What does one do with that? These are classics, in the real, and marketing sense? How do you throw out Snow White or Bambi? But what do you do if you can’t play them, either?

All of these movies

could be stored on one, three-terabyte hard drive, in DVD quality. Instead, they’re taking space that

I could use for something else.

I just realized I have a collection of Hi-8 home videos I took over a decade ago. I didn’t even know where the camcorder was

until my wife dug it out of a closet. I haven’t used it in years. Ironically, I now fi nd myself in need of a high-quality camcorder for video projects, and my old Hi-8 won’t cut it. It was standard definition, and the last generation of cam-corders before the fl ip-out screen. Plus I don’t have a way of transferring standard defi nition video to a digital format. I’m going to have to buy something that will allow me to do that before I can pitch the tapes.

I have the original Star Wars trilogy in several for-mats. That includes VHS, before the “special edition,” where Han shot fi rst in his confrontation with Greedo. But I also have Episode I The Phantom Menace in both widescreen and standard format VHS. That’s the one that featured Jar Jar Binks.

Maybe those can end up in the dump, after all.

Do you really keep Jar Jar Binks on VHS?

NationalTORONTO - Mayor Rob Ford will have

to foot his own legal bills for his hard-won fi ght to keep his job in light of a citizen’s application to have him removed for confl ict-of-interest, an Ontario court ruled Tuesday.

In its brief decision, a Divisional Court panel decided against awarding costs because the case raised novel issues of law and Ford’s narrow appeal win was not an outright victory.

Ford had sought about $116,000 in costs from Paul Magder, who almost succeeded in having the mayor ousted for participating in a council vote in which he had a fi nancial interest.

When it came to costs, Magder argued against any award on the grounds he was acting as a public-interest litigant.

Ford, who blamed a left-wing conspiracy

after the courts initially ordered him removed from offi ce, argued Magder was “in the pursuit of a political agenda.”

In nixing Ford’s request for costs, the Divisional Court cited three reasons.

***WINNIPEG - A court hearing has been

held that could lead to Winnipeg’s mayor losing his job over a confl ict-of-interest accusation.

Sam Katz is facing legal trouble over a $3,000 taxpayer-funded Christmas party for councillors and staff at a restaurant Katz owned.

Another restaurateur, Joe Chan, is asking a judge to declare that Katz violated confl ict-of-interest legislation.

Chan’s lawyer told court that Katz im-properly benefi ted from public money and

should have held the party elsewhere.Katz’s lawyer said the law does not pre-

vent such a party, but is aimed at preventing politicians from using their position to sway others in a decision.

Court of Queen’s Bench Justice Brenda Keyser reserved her decision to Friday.

***OTTAWA - The oil and gas sector will

need to lower greenhouse gas emissions by 42 per cent if Canada has any hope of meeting overall reductions targets by the end of the decade, says a new report from an environmental think-tank.

The Pembina Institute report also says the only way that’s going to happen is if upcoming federal regulations on the sector go much farther than those already in place in Alberta.

The Conservative government has been promising new rules for the oil and gas sec-tor since 2008 and has suggested they will fi nally be unveiled this year.

They’ll follow earlier regulations for the transportation and electricity sectors, all aimed at reducing Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions by 17 per cent from 2005 levels

by 2020.Both the environmental commissioner

and the now-defunct National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy warned last year that Canada was not on track to meet that goal.

A federal government report last sum-mer, however, said Canada was already halfway there.

InternationalCAIRO - Hundreds of Egyptian students

angered by a mass outbreak of food poisoning at a Cairo university stormed on Tuesday the offi ces of the country’s top Muslim cleric, who presides over the institution.

The Monday outbreak at al-Azhar University forced the hospitalization of 479 students, health ministry offi cial Khaled el-Khateib said. It occurred after a meal served at the university dormitories in Cairo’s Nasr City district.

The university is affi liated with Al-Azhar mosque, the world’s foremost seat of Sunni Muslim learning, and awards degrees in sciences and humanities as well as in religious studies. Ahmed el-Tayeb, the

Grand Imam of Al-Azhar whose offi ces were attacked, is the university’s ultimate authority.

Underlining the gravity of the incident, Egypt’s top prosecutor ordered an inves-tigation into the outbreak and Islamist President Moham-med Morsi visited one of the several Cairo hospitals to which victims were taken.

Food poisoning is not uncommon in Egyptian uni-versity dormitories, where basic hygiene standards are often not observed, but the latest outbreak is the biggest in years.

Pair of Canadian city mayors in hot water

Expectations are higher than the CN Tower in Toronto as the Blue Jays started swinging their bats in seriousness this week to start the 2013 Major League Baseball season.

While the NHL lockout zapped sports’ fans enthusi-asm over the early part of the winter, the Blue Jays picked up the slack by having one of the greatest off-seasons in baseball history. Any off-season. Any team. Ever.

Not only did the Jays’ pitching staff get a whole new look with the addi-tion of Josh Johnson and Mark Buehrle from Miami and R.A. Dickey (merely the 2012 Cy Young award winner) from the Mets, but they added pop at the plate in shortstop Jose Reyes (a former NL batting champ) from Miami and Melky Cabrera from the drug sus-pension list. Cabrera was hitting .350 and en route to the NL batting title last year before being suspended for drug use.

The abundance of new talent makes the Jays a legit-imate contender, consider-ing the lineup also includes the batting and fi elding tal-ent of Jose Bautista, Edwin Encarnacion, Adam Lind, Brett Lawrie, J.C. Arenci-bia and Colby Rasmus. It’s almost an embarrassment of riches, and the baseball co-

gnoscenti have noticed. In some quarters, particularly Las Vegas, the Jays are the betting favourites to win the World Series (but that might be just because Vegas odd-smakers have taken gobs of money on the Jays from Canadian tourists visiting Sin City). Other respected baseball observers aren’t quite as giddy about the Jays’ chances, with most of them suggesting a wild card berth will be their fate come Game No. 162.

While the Jays are go-ing to be fun to watch this year as they try to do unto others as others have done unto them for the past 20 years, the Washington Na-tionals are regarded as the team to beat in the National League. In fact, in a recent Sports Illustrated poll, four of the seven prognosticators picked the Nationals - teem-ing with talent with the likes of superstar-in-waiting Bryce Harper and pitching phenom Stephen Strasburg - to be crowned World Series champs in October.

Now wouldn’t that be something to see? The Jays representing the American League against the for-

mer Montreal Expos (now Washington) in the Fall Classic. Can you hear the strains of O Canada in the background?

• Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “In Serbia a 28-year-old woman has a rare brain disorder that makes her see everything upside down. Which ex-plains why she is such a huge Charlotte Bobcats fan.”

• Jeff Miller of the Or-ange Country Register, on Mike Trout’s contract being renewed at the minimum level, $510,000: “Mike Trout spent the summer of 2012 looking like the next Mickey Mantle. When it came time to recognize the cornerstone of their franchise, to reward the

player who chased history his entire rookie season - and usually caught it - the Angels treated him like the next Mickey Mouse.”

• SI.com, on the Phil-lies’ chances in 2013: “Gen-eral manager Ruben Amaro Jr. mistook the mandate to ‘get young’ by loading up on both Michael Young and Delmon Young, which won’t help an aging, mid-dling offensive core.”

• Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “A fan wearing a LeBron James T-shirt ran onto the court during a recent Cavs-Heat game. Seeing a man on court who obviously loves LeB-ron, the guy was mistaken for any NBA referee.”

• R.J. Currie of sports-deke.com: “The Flames

dealing Jarome Iginla to Pittsburgh is the end of an era at the Saddledome. Put another way, Jarome Arthur-Leigh Adekunle Tig Junior Elvis has left the building.”

• Currie again: “The Chicago Cubs reportedly

may add a mascot that represents the Cubbies’ tradition. Possible names include Hindenburg, Titanic and Exxon Valdez.”

Lions deal Mitchell to Argos for AwasomNational

TORONTO - It’s been a demanding opening to the MLS schedule for Toronto FC and new manager Ryan Nelsen.

Having taken a point from the defending MLS cham-pion Los Angeles Galaxy last Saturday at BMO Field, Toronto (1-2-1) now prepares for the visit of Western Conference-leading FC Dallas (4-1-0).

Toronto’s fi rst fi ve opponents currently have a com-bined record of 14-5-5.

Nelsen was disappointed but philosophical Saturday after watching his team concede a 92nd-minute goal to the Galaxy that negated a 2-1 Toronto advantage.

“We have to put in perspective who we’re playing — that’s the MLS champs, they’re a very good team,” he said after a chilly practice Tuesday at BMO Field. “The fi rst fi ve games of our season are all against top-10 teams. It’s a good kind of valuation to see where we are.”

While Rome wasn’t built in a day, the early signs are good.

Toronto has scored fi ve goals and conceded six in four games so far this season. At this same point last year, the team was 0-4-0 and had been outscored 9-2.

***TORONTO - The Toronto Argonauts shored up their

defensive line Tuesday by acquiring all-star tackle Khalif Mitchell from the B.C. Lions for defensive end Adrian Awasom and the rights to a negotiation list player.

The six-foot-fi ve, 316-pound Mitchell was a CFL all-star in 2011 after registering six sacks and 33 tackles in helping B.C. win the Grey Cup. But last season he was suspended for two games by the league after hyperextending the arm of Edmonton Eskimos offensive lineman Simeon Rottier during a game.

He was also fi ned by the CFL last October for tweeting a term that was derogatory toward Chinese. Mitchell later apologized, saying he didn’t know the word was offensive.

The 27-year-old from Virginia Beach, Va., was due to return from injury that week, but the Lions kept him off their active roster following the league’s decision to fi ne him.

Mitchell has registered 54 tackles and eight sacks in 34 career CFL games. Prior to joining the Lions, Mitchell spent two seasons on the practice roster of the NFLs San Francisco 49ers.

***The Calgary Flames continued to usher big names out

the door with the trade of defenceman Jay Bouwmeester to the St. Louis Blues on Monday.

The move comes ahead of the NHL’s trade deadline of 3 p.m. ET on Wednesday, and on the heels of Calgary dealing captain Jarome Iginla to Pittsburgh last week.

The Flames get a conditional fi rst-round draft pick, 22-year-old defenceman Mark Cundari and 26-year-old Swiss goaltender Reto Berra for Bouwmeester. For Iginla, Calgary picked up a fi rst-round pick and two college for-wards from the Penguins.

If the Blues don’t make the post-season, Calgary gets a fourth-round pick in this year’s draft from St. Louis and that fi rst-round selection will be deferred to 2014.

InternationalPITTSBURGH, Pa. - Pittsburgh Penguins captain

Sidney Crosby has been released from hospital after suf-fering a broken jaw in a game last weekend.

The Penguins confi rmed on their Twitter account that Crosby was released Monday. He will be out of the Penguins’ lineup indefi nitely.

Crosby suffered the injury in the fi rst period of the Penguins’ 2-0 win over the New York Islanders when he was struck in the mouth by a puck from a defl ected slapshot.

The injury was as an unfortunate end to an otherwise stellar March for Crosby, who was named the NHL’s fi rst star of the month for putting up 25 points during the Penguins’ 15-game winning streak. He currently leads the league with 56 points (15 goals, 41 assists).

The Eastern Conference-leading Penguins play their fi rst game without Crosby on Tuesday night at home against Buffalo.

HOMEIMPROVEMENT

(NC) – Times have changed when it comes to the selection and purchase of hardwood fl oors. With today's ease of communication on-line, and the low cost of sending product samples, it is becoming preferable and more cost-effective for consumers to deal directly with the manufacturer.

One North American manufacturer that is breaking the traditional sales mould is Avant Guard Flooring who has chosen to market their custom made-to-measure Hardwood directly to the end users. Its site www.AGFlooringdirect.com has given consumers access to premium high-end fl ooring they can custom design on-line which then gets custom-made and shipped directly to their door in the construction, species, grade, stain colour and gloss level of their choosing.

Customers simply click through options to choose their optimal wood fl ooring by colour, whether they require solid or engineered fl oors, the species and grade, width and fi nally gloss level. Here are a few tips to consider when navigating the site:

1. Select solid or engineered fl ooring.

Solid fl ooring must be nailed or stapled into an exist-ing wood subfl oor and is only recommended on or above the grade level (soil line) around your home. Engineered fl ooring's construction allows it to be installed over vir-tually any type of subfl oor whether above, on, or below the grade level.

2. Choose your preferred species and grade.

Examine the natural colour, grain patterns, grades, relative hardness and visual characteristics of each species to fi nd what appeals to you. If you have an active high traffi c household or a large pet, harder species are recom-mended as they will show less dents and traffi c patterns.

3. Choose your board width.

The latest trend is the use of wider boards made popular in nostalgic decors. Up until now many hardwood dealers recommended against choosing fl ooring wider than 3 ¼”, because of fear that the fl oor would develop unsightly and unhealthy gaps over time due to uncontrolled swings in relative humidity within a home.

Gormley explained this is no longer the case thanks to the added protection of Avant Guard's unique Contour Guard fi nishing process which envelopes each of its fl oorboards to eliminate any possible unattractive and

unhealthy effects from these gaps.

4. Choose your colour.

“We've found that today the number one consideration for consumers is selecting the right colour for their fl oor-ing to match their decors,” said Tom Gormley, President of Avant Guard Flooring.

Often “popular” standard stain colours traditionally offered by manufacturers aren't exactly what discerning consumers are looking for and they spend the next days and weeks searching different manufacturers for that par-ticular elusive stain colour that will harmonize perfectly with their decors.

AG Flooring direct has revolutionized this process by offering clients customized colours for their fl ooring with its exclusive “Designer colour match” system. “We can easily match any colour you see offered by most of our competitors at no additional charge,” explained Gormley.

5. Choose your gloss level

The fi nal choice is the degree of light you wish your fl oor to refl ect. A Semi-Gloss fi nish refl ects approximately 50 per cent of the light shone upon, while a simulated-oil look refl ects approximately eight per cent and a satin-gloss fi nish refl ects at a 30 per cent rate.

(NC)—The look you want for doors, windows, shutters, moldings, fences, and decks can be achieved by applying the right colour and type of stain in an attrac-tive combination. Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions on this home improvement topic from www.olympic.com.

Q: I want the natural wood grain to come through on my front door, but not on the shutters, so how do I vary the stains to achieve that look?

A: You can get at least four different looks depending upon the stain you choose. A clear stain will allow the wood to weather gray naturally. A toner stain delivers a slight hint of colour as it maintains the natural beauty of wood. A semi-transparent stain applies subtle colour that still allows the wood grain and texture to show. A solid stain is a rich opaque covering that also allows the texture of the wood to show. To save time when doing it yourself, the Olympic Maximum stain-and-sealant-in-one line is a very popular choice.

Q: How do I know when it's time to

re-stain?

A: Over several seasons, weather and UV exposure causes stain to break down and then it allows moisture to enter the wood. Test the questionable fi nish by placing a small amount of water on it for a few seconds. If, after a couple minutes, the water soaks in, the wood should be re-stained. If the water droplets remain on the surface, the stain is still effective. It's important to determine the integrity of the stain on the wood before recoating as different procedures apply.

Q: What steps are necessary to ensure that the stain on my deck has a long life?

A: Start by stripping off any existing stain (a specialized deck cleaner is also available from Olympic) and then sand the surface to remove loose wood fi bers and any contamination. This will ensure that the new coating is evenly absorbed. Make sure to follow the product directions when applying the new stain.

Q: What is the one best tip to make

sure my project turns out the way I want it?A: Do a patch test. This will allow you

to see how the fi nish will look and give you the opportunity to make any neces-

sary adjustments as to cleaning, colour, or application method.

Design your dream garden(NC)—Wish you could give your garden an instant

makeover? It's easy to make a dramatic difference with accessories.

Fun fences! Faced with a concrete wall? Put up a trel-lis or two for an instantly dramatic and elegant look. Play up the look even more by adding some climbing plants to highlight the trellis.

Blooms are in the Air! Hanging baskets add colour to an outdoor space. “Choose large baskets like the PC® Jumbo Hanging Basket,” suggests Peter Cantley, garden guru at Loblaw Companies Limited. “The fl owers are beautifully colour coordinated, and the basket is big and roomy and that's so important because a larger soil capac-ity helps keep plants from drying out. For real impact try brightly coloured baskets like apple green or plum, which coordinate beautifully with fl owers“

Rocky road! Add some pretty pebbles or stones around plant bases or arrange large, smooth rocks along the edges of a pathway. This sophisticated look will draw attention to the shapes and curves in your yard.

Light of the Party! Proper lighting is essential for en-tertaining on summer evenings and for creating the perfect ambience in your garden getaway. Light from candles, lamps or illuminated planters make a big difference with

a splash of colour.

Light up planters can add fun and fl air to your garden. The PC® Solar Powered Multi-Colour Illuminated Planters light up in the evening and give your gatherings a lovely ambience. They also make perfect containers for ice and bevvies during those summer parties too!

Yummy reasons to garden this spring!(NC)—If you're look-

ing for a spring and summer activity that will provide you with healthy and deli-cious food all summer long why not try growing your own produce? Here, gar-den guru Peter Cantley, at Loblaw Com-panies Lim-i ted shares his favourite f r u i t s a n d veggies that can be grown at home.

Savoury s a l a d s – These days, you can grow virtually all the fi xin's for your summer salads right in your own backyard. From delicious heirloom Brandywine to-matoes, to refreshing cu-cumbers, crisp radishes and savoury herbs, the possibilities are endless to make your salads come

to life. To give your salad real depth, try a variety of greens like Romaine mixed with Batavian or Butterhead.

Fruits of your labour – Canadian summers pro-vide the perfect climate for

growing the freshest fruit your family will ever taste, and it's easier than you think. Small fruit plants like the PC® Pixie Grape Pinot Meunier Hardy Vine can actually grow in a pot! These adorable mini clus-ters of juicy grapes can be

eaten as is or even used in wine. If you're looking for something completely dif-ferent, try a fi g plant which can be left outside over the winter in most areas of Canada– there's noth-ing like the taste of fresh

fi gs from your own garden!

B e r r y tasty – You'll never taste fresher ber-ries then the o n e s y o u grow r igh t in your own b a c k y a r d . And what 's more, these

tasty little plants add the perfect pop of colour to any outdoor space. Try juicy blueberries or suc-culent strawberries to add to your summer deserts or toss into your favourite salads. Or, try something a little different like plump,

juicy Haskap berries from the new PC Haskap 2-in-1 Borealis/Honeybee plant – an exciting new fruit that

tastes like a cross between blueberries, raspberries and Saskatoon berries. They're perfect for jam,

baking or enjoying by the handful.

Newest one-coat formula takes the 'pain' of stain

(NC)—Who says oil and water don't mix? Lead-ing coatings brand, Sik-kens, has introduced an innovative new wood care stain that contains a unique combination of water and oil-based materials to de-liver the best of both worlds for users.

Made from a unique alkyd (oil) and acrylic (water) hybrid mix, the new Cetol SRD line is a premium fl at fi nish stain that requires only one coat on any exterior wood surface – from decks and fences, to rails, siding and

outdoor furniture.The coating provides

both the strength and dura-bility of an alkyd stain and the ease of use of an acrylic product, including simple clean-up of tools with water. It is specially formulated to deliver maximum pen-etration, colour retention, adhesion and resistance to ultraviolet rays, humidity, rain, sleet and snow.

“Our research shows that homeowners want wood coatings that make their stain jobs easier, and the product's unique alkyd-acrylic combination does the trick,” says Mario Mathieu, senior Product Manager for Woodcare at

HOMEIMPROVEMENT

Take control of spring allergies(NC)—Along with the warmer weather and longer

days, springtime can bring runny noses, watery eyes, and seasonal sneezing. From the ceremonious spring clean-ing to blooming fl owers and thriving trees, the season

can trigger allergies caused by culprits both inside and outside the home. Don't let allergens such as pollen, mold, dander, or dust mites make you suffer and spoil your spring fever. Take a look at this list of practical, chemical-free tips from the Reliable Corporation, on how to better control allergies within your home:

• Declutter to reduce dust collectors. Remove piles and stacks, toss out or recycle any unwanted items, and then place remaining objects in closed plastic containers to avoid attracting dust.

• Vacuum, steam, and fl ip the mattress, this should be done annually in order to help maintain shape and avoid uneven wearing. Easily kill dust mites and mold spores with the EnviroMate Pronto (P7) a portable steam cleaner by Reliable. Use the fabric brush attachment and hold device over the mattress to eliminate allergens. The power of steam also deodorizes and sanitizes every crevice, a natural alternative to using harsh chemicals.

• Wipe down your home from top to bottom, but skip the hazardous chemical cleaning solutions and use a damp microfi ber cloth to attract dust on tables, walls, frames, shelves, dressers, ceiling fans, and more.

• Keep your doors and windows closed, especially during peak pollen hours. If using an air conditioning system, make sure to change the fi lter monthly.

• To eliminate mildew and lime buildup without the use of chemical cleaners, lay down paper towels over appliances and soak in vinegar. For best results, let it sit for at least an hour, allowing the residue to soften, eventually making it easier to remove.
