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 So m 6 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. mEnT KirK SymondS WHENTHEWINDBLOWS Sailboat races in Mahone Bay on August 16.

Page 4 The Lighthouse Log, Thursday, August 21, 2014 www.southshorenow.ca 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. through YOUR LENS JUSTFORKICKS ALISON CREASER PHOTO South Shore District Soccer players, from left, Abby Cook, Lindsey Lohnes and Brogan Skinner, helped out at the Just for Kicks Soccer fun day on August 9. 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.

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. Tina Hennigar Beware of the power of suggestion D 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 T.

Now I’m really nervous because I love my boyfriend and I would be devastated if we broke up. Now I keep thinking of that gypsy and I really did believe she had psychic powers. Why else would she have known about my dad’s promotion? Now I react a little differently with my boyfriend. We used to disagree, but I always told him why I thought a different way. Now, I just agree with him because I’m afraid 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.

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. market classified YOUR MESSAGE. ON PAPER.

Page 12 The Lighthouse Log, Thursday, August 21, 2014 www.southshorenow.ca Catch the Growing Green bus tour through YOUR LENS A DISCOVERY CHARMAINE ZWICKER PHOTO New Ross residents, from left, Emily Rafuse, Kalan Naugler and Hudson Broome, discovered a baby snapping turtle at Lake Darling. 2014 Corolla CE with 6 speed manual transmission • 1.8 litre, 4-cylinder engine with Dual Variable Valve Timing with Intelligence (VVT-i) • AM/FM/CD/MP3 audio with USB input and Bluetooth® • Tilt & telescopic steering wheel with audio controls • Power door locks and power windows • Power adjustable, heated exterior mirrors • LED headlamps 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 [email protected], 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.
