Deputy Reeve Lorne Jahn presided at the Rural Municipality of Estevan council meeting on Mon-day.
With the annual bylaw for exempting non-profi t groups from the coming tax year on the agenda, council passed a motion that led to tax exemptions for Metochos Ministries Bible Camp, Hitchcock Community Recreation Centre, and the Estevan Auto Racing Association.
Tax exemptions con-tinued, as council passed a bylaw granting three-year exemptions to new com-mercial buildings con-structed in the RM during 2010. As part of the RM’s development incentives for new commercial buildings in the municipality, they offer three tax-free years to all such buildings.
Counci l approved sponsorship of two dif-ferent programs dealing with the arts this year. In sponsoring the Souris Val-ley Theatre 2011 produc-tion, the RM will provide $3,000. Another $200 will be given to the Souris Val-ley Museum.
RM lends $3,000 to theatre program
Council learned the gravel stockpile is still in the process of being delivered. To this point half of the required 20,000 yards of gravel have been delivered.
Council approved a renovation to the RM offi ce which would add a new of-fi ce for the administration building. The renovation will free up an existing offi ce, which will now be used as a storage and meet-ing room.
RM councillors ap-proved a building permit for offi ces to be added to one of Turnbull Excavat-ing’s buildings.
A new oil well licence and haul agreement was given the vote of confi -dence by council at the meeting.

THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2011 Page 3
A pair of stars are coming to Estevan this weekend for a performance not often seen in the area.
The piano duo of Ales-sio Bax and Lucille Chung have performed all over the globe with such re-nowned institutions as the London Philharmonic and the Montreal Symphony Orchestra. As part of the Stars for Saskatchewan series, sponsored by the Estevan Arts Council, Bax and Chung are making a stop here on Feb. 20, while they tour around the prov-ince this month.
Their performances of one piano and four hands have given them the ac-claim as one of Canada’s most dynamic and brilliant young duos of their genera-tion, according to Prairie Debut, the group supported by the Canada Council for the Arts dedicated to bring-ing high-calibre perform-ers to the Prairies.
“As well as being very polished performers,
One piano, four hands coming to Estevanthey are so personable,” Marguerite Gallaway said of the couple who met at a competition in 1997 and later married in 2004. Gal-laway is the chairwoman of the Stars for Saskatchewan committee, which has fi ve other members.
She saw the pair per-form for 20 minutes at the Organization of Sas-katchewan Arts Council’s showcase last year and was very impressed with the quality of the performance.
Gallaway said she looks to bring in acts to the area that are a little differ-ent than what people will usually see in Estevan. She wants something that isn’t covered by the theatre, so she isn’t overlapping that kind of entertainment and is always keeping things fresh.
“I look to fi nd some-thing new. I think rural Saskatchewan should see the kinds of things they get in Regina and Saskatoon.”
She noted that many
people in Regina take performances like this for granted and that she wants to “even it out a bit,” bringing top of the line performances to smaller centres like Estevan.
Gallaway showers
praise on the duo after her brief glimpse of their talent.
“They are so brilliant. Even if classical music (isn’t what you like), it is easy to be impressed with
them.”Because they are play-
ing duets on the same grand piano, the issue of size is very much a consideration everywhere they go.
“She’s a mini thing and he’s quite tall, so there will be two adjustable benches,” to accommodate the disparate pair.
The performance is presented with the assis-tance of the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils.
Stars for Saskatch-ewan brings in people from all over. Gallaway said people from all over southeastern Saskatch-ewan will come to Estevan to see some of the shows that are put on, some even from south of the border in North Dakota. The added attractions bring in more tourism to the city.
Other acts coming to Estevan through Stars for Saskatchewan are a Celtic group from the Maritimes and a gospel choir. Galla-
Alessio Bax and Lucille Chung
way said the committee is already into the planning stages for next year’s at-tractions, continuing the process of lining up high-calibre acts for 2012.
The organization of the event can be a little daunting for the group. Gallaway said everyone has a job. Someone is responsible for the post-performance reception, introduction preparations and someone must be in charge of supplying the performers with any food or drinks they need before the performance.
Gallaway said all the little “blips” that come along must be handled as well. It all comes together in the end, eventually.
“It does take a lot of time to get it all together.”
Tickets to Bax and Chung are available at Henders Drugs or can be purchased at the door be-fore Sunday’s performance at 2:30 p.m. at St. Paul’s United Church.
Yellow Ashtray
Q: I purchased an ashtray at a church sale in Minnesota last sum-mer. It was made by Red Wing pottery and features a cowboy-hat design to commemorate the centen-nial of Minnesota in 1949. It is a yellow color. I paid $15 and hope I got a good deal. -- Susan, Pecos, N.M.
A: Your ashtray is worth about $60, according to Warman’s “Red Wing Pottery: Identifi cation and Price Guide” by Mark F. Moran (Krause, $24.99).
***Q: I have approxi-
mately 80 Hit Parade and Song Hits magazines from the 1950s. Do they have any value? Some of the issues are coming apart.
What should I do to repair them? -- Peter, Southbury, Conn.
A: The value of your magazines depends on who is on the cover. If it is Elvis Presley, maybe $35. If it is the Cordettes, maybe as little as $5. Typical values include a 1959 issue with Fabian on the cover, $15; Paul Anka from 1962, $2.75; and Bing Crosby, also from the 1960s, $10. Since collectors prefer items in their original condition, do not make any repairs, but store them carefully and out of bright sunlight.
***Q: I have a set of
24 volumes of the works of William Shakespeare published by Knicker-bocker Leather & Novelty
Company of New York. Could you inform me if they have some value, or where I could look for other information about them? -- J.P., Barre, Vt.
A: Your set was published in about 1920. I went to www.abe.com, where I found dozens of individual volumes from this set being of-fered for sale by dealers throughout the country. “Twelfth Night,” for example, is available from an Ohio dealer for $8.50. Your complete set might be worth about $250, depending on con-dition and the demand for Shakespeare in your region.
***Q: While clearing
my mother’s house, I found a mint copy of the Duncan Hines Dessert Book from the 1950s. Is it worth keeping? -- Susan, Carbondale, Ill.
A: According to the Antique Trader Collect-ible Cookbooks Price Guide by Patricia Ed-wards and Peter Peck-
ham (Krause, $21.99), your Duncan Hines cook-book is worth in the $11 to $19 range.

Have you found Lady Gaga?Have you found Lady Gaga?
I love hockey.I grew up playing the sport. I’ve watched it at pretty much every
level and I’ve coached it. It’s a sport that I get.One of the guys I coached with had coached the sport for more than
30 years. He would say there are four games going over the course of one game. What the players see, what the coaches see, what the refer-ees see and what the spectators see. The only point of view I am void of personal experience in is refereeing, but I have siblings and friends with whom I’ve spoken a lot on the subject.
When it comes to violence in Canada’s game, I have an opinion of compromise. After a slew of incidents in the last couple of weeks involving line brawls and goalie fi ghts, the state of hockey is very much in the limelight.
Mario Lemieux, a hockey icon and co-owner of the Pittsburgh Penguins, came down hard on the NHL’s lack of discipline in response to a series of brawls and misdeeds in a game between his own Penguins and the New York Islanders.
I’ve looked through comments that follow stories about the brawls and Lemieux’s criticism of the players’ and league’s actions. Many quickly jump to the support of the wild west style hockey the NHL is sometimes known for and criticize Lemieux for speaking out against fi ghting. But he didn’t say he had a problem with fi ghting in the NHL, and that’s not what any of this is about.
Those comments really miss what the criticism is. I have no prob-
When hockey fi ghts go too far
lem with fi ghting in the NHL. Fighting and hockey have always had a neighbourly relationship.
However, watching line brawls and shift after shift of players going after other players is disgusting. I don’t want to get rid of all violence in the NHL, but at some point it gets ridiculous and a few games recently have reached that point.
There are the old time hockey guys who shout, mostly to be heard over their loud shirts, about how cracking down on headshots will eliminate the physical and entertaining value of the game. The same characters believe in no restrictions or enforcement to fi ghting.
A crackdown on headshots to protect the players is a good start. Fighting doesn’t need to be banned, it’s already penalized. The
league should however, consider what the course of action is when a second fi ght breaks out while one is in progress, as well as how it deals with line brawls. One fi ght at a time is OK by me, it’s even a crowd-pleaser.
Let’s not get carried away, though. When multiple fi ghts break out, or players continue to attack players later in a game, the sport looks like a joke. Restrictions on the number of fi ghts for players and teams should absolutely come into effect. I am not one to decide on what the per game fi ght quota should be, but there clearly needs to be one, with heavy fi nes and suspensions.
Any move the NHL makes to deter what happened in the Pens and Isles game would be a step in the right direction, but it needs to be meaningful. Lemieux’s criticism was that the action taken wasn’t meaningful, he wasn’t making a call for no fi ghting.
I love hockey, I know hockey, but the incidents in the last couple of weeks were an embarrassment.
Farmers have always been noted as needing to be something of Jacks-of-all-trades. I suppose that goes back to the earliest days of farming where operations were mixed, meaning you had to know about growing crops as well as animal husbandry, and to an era where you had to make and/or fi x, your own equipment either because there was no repair shop close by, or the costs were too high.
The farmer not only required the broad knowledge base, but also had to have the skills to use such knowledge.
Things have changed today in some key aspects of what a farmer needs to do and know.
The scale of operations has been trending ever larger for decades, and with the growth of farm size, the actual owner is in some ways becoming increasingly detached from the day-to-day operations of a farm, taking on more of CEO role, managing people, money and time.
We see this in two areas, the fi rst being the actual workings of a farm.
Grain farmers, for example, now look to hire many key jobs done on a custom basis. We see farmers paying others to apply fertil-izers and to spray crops, both as a way to reduce capital investment, and to hand over a key element of a crop’s yield potential to experts.
While not as widespread in Canada as in the United States, more farmers are looking to custom harvesters to combine their crops in the fall as well.
It makes sense if you recognize a farmer can’t drive all the equipment himself, but it’s increasingly diffi cult to fi nd staff who are willing to work a few weeks each fall and who have the knowledge and expertise to put behind the wheel of a quarter of a million dollar combine, with an instru-ment panel that could come from a spaceship.
The level of technology in modern farm equipment also means farm-ers don’t hammer out most repairs in their shop today, but again turn to experts to makes fi xes.
A farmer today is also challenged to keep pace with the knowledge side of a farm operation.
A decision as seemingly simple as choosing a canola variety to grow is made more diffi cult by the growing list of varieties, each with varying agronomic potential based on soil type, growing region, disease presence and numerous other factors which need to be understood to make the best choice.
The same can be said about which nutrient package to use. A soil test is the foundation of a plan, but the growing realization micronutrients can play is a vital role in production, coupled with global positioning technology which allows fertilizer rate variation almost on an acre-by-acre basis requires a much broader knowledge base than a farmer making a fertilizer decision in 1980.
So we see many farmers looking to hire agrologists who provide their specifi c expertise to designing a cropping plan.
At the other end of production, marketing was once a case of hauling grain to the nearest elevator and pulling the chute and picking up the cheque.
Today specialty crops need to be shopped to numerous markets. Crops can be sold months ahead of harvest to protect price. Marketing has become a huge part of the farm’s success, and again requires skills not needed a decade or so ago.
Farmers often look to hire marketing expertise to carry out that aspect of their business.
The end result is that farmers are becoming people managers as much as farm managers. They need to fi nd those with the required expertise and then build working relationships with those experts. It is becoming less about walking through a fi eld than it is about sitting through consultations at the desks of those hired to lend expertise to the farm.
It is a different role farmers are having to adapt to quickly to ensure operational viability in the face of rapidly evolving knowledge and technology.
Out of the fi eld, farmers turn CEOs

NATIONALSAN JOSE, Calif. -
After being unable even to get through qualifying in a season-opening tourna-ment in India, Milos Ra-onic and his booming serve have loudly announced his presence on tour.
Raonic became the fi rst Canadian to win an ATP Tour title since 1995 by winning a hard-fought match Sunday over defend-ing-champion Fernando Verdasco 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5) in the fi nal of the SAP Open.
Raonic, who grew
up in Thornhill, Ont., followed up a run to the round of 16 at the Austra-lian Open last month with a win in his eighth career tournament. It’s part of a stunning start to the year that even he wouldn’t have believed possible if some-one told him he would have accomplished all of this back in December.

the league’s 19th team in 2012. The league expects to have 22 teams by the end of the decade.
***WHITEHORSE - Sto-
ries of life-threatening conditions, heroic rescues and heartbreaking losses are unfolding during this year’s 1,600 kilometre Yukon Quest dog sled race.
Second-place musher Hans Gatt of Whitehorse, Yukon, was exhausted, dehydrated and desperate when he was rescued this weekend by another racer on a blizzard-swept sum-mit of the 1,600 kilometre route between Whitehorse and Fairbanks, Alaska.
Brent Sass hooked Gatt’s struggling team to his sled and, powered by Sass’ lead dog Silver,
pulled both teams over the 1,042-metre summit, to safety at the next check-point.
But just hours later, Sass was hit by a separate disaster when one of his own dogs suddenly died on the trail, although a veterinarian could fi nd no obvious cause of death.
INTERNATIONALWELLINGTON, New
Zealand - Southern hemi-sphere rugby offi cials are banking on the revamp of the Super 15 competition to revive the sport’s appeal to fans and broadcasters in diffi cult economic times and in an increasingly cut-throat sports marketplace.
The inclusion of a fi fth Australian team based in sports-mad Melbourne, the
establishment of regional conferences to produce more fan-friendly derby matches, and the substan-tial lengthening of the season are all intended to offer value to broadcasters and intrigue to fans.
***SAO PAULO, Brazil
- Three-time FIFA player of the year Ronaldo has scheduled a news confer-ence where he is expected to announce his retirement from football.
The 34-year-old strik-er is set to speak at 12:40 p.m. local time on Monday, ending an 18-year career in which he thrived with Bra-zil and some of Europe’s top clubs.
He told the Estado de S. Paulo newspaper on Sunday that “it’s time” to
stop because he can’t stay fi t anymore.
If confi rmed, the an-nouncement would come just days after Ronaldo was heavily blamed by Corin-thians fans for the team’s elimination from the Copa Libertadores.
***DENVER - Colorado
Avalanche forward Peter Forsberg is retiring from the NHL after playing in just two games during his latest comeback.
A chronic foot ailment cut short Forsberg’s career. He made a brief return in 2008 and didn’t play in the NHL again until this month. After a visa delay, he took the ice in just two games, scoring no points, before deciding to call it a career.

PROVINCIALREGINA - Workers
who deal with kids in care in Saskatchewan are being told to talk to each other more after the death of a three-year-old boy at a foster home.
The Ministry of Social Services said Wednesday there’s a new protocol to ensure that child protection workers and foster home workers review quality of care concerns at foster homes together.
“People were not talk-ing before,” said Social Ser-vices Minister June Draude.
“They were not com-municating the fact that there was an issue between the home and the actual child. We (are) now saying, ‘Sit down on a regular basis and tell me what the issue is here.’”
The communications protocol was implemented in the Regina offi ce of the Ministry of Social Services after the little boy, who lived at a foster home in the nearby community of Pense, died of pneumonia in December 2009.
***DAVIDSON, Sask. -
RCMP have laid murder charges in the case of a missing Saskatchewan man whose body they haven’t found yet.
Sgt. Paul Dawson said Saturday that forensic in-vestigators have a search warrant for a rural property in Davidson, northwest of Regina, and he says they are optimistic they will fi nd 25-year-old Rob Vicente’s body there.
“Our goal from the outset was to locate Rob to bring some sense of closure to his family, and we are optimistic that we will locate him so Rob’s family can have a proper burial for their loved one,” Dawson said.
Vicente was last seen
leaving his mother’s house near Davidson on Oct. 10 — his burned-out car was found two days later in an abandoned farm fi eld.
***BELLE PLAINE, Sask.
- RCMP in Saskatchewan say the ice is so bad on the Trans-Canada Highway, it’s starting to look like a ‘70s TV show out there.
There was a chain re-action accident on Friday morning when a van lost control and hit the ditch near Belle Plaine.
While a tow truck was working on pulling it out, another car came roaring up from down the road.
RCMP Sergeant Rob Cozine says it did what he calls, in his words, “a Dukes of Hazzard.”
He says it went up the tow truck’s ramp and fl ew into the air, landing on its roof in the middle of the highway.
Moments later, yet an-other car hit the ditch.
NATIONALMONTREAL - Lauza
Legere’s heart is beating strong this Valentine’s Day but not because she’s been poked with Cupid’s arrow.
She’s helping test the C-Pulse Heart Assist System, a new device that rhythmi-cally squeezes her aorta and pumps blood to her damaged heart.
“I feel much better than before,” Legere said in a telephone interview, explaining that before she got the pump it was hard to even take a breath.
***OTTAWA - The Ca-
nadian military is revising the way it handles domestic operations, after realizing there are gaping holes in the existing strategy.
Newly released docu-ments show the 2010 Winter Olympics were an organiza-
tional nightmare because the military lacked what they call domestic doctrine.
Doctrine provides rules to handle different types of operations, but the section governing home turf activi-ties is out of date.
***HALIFAX - The leaders
of Nova Scotia’s three main parties say public trust in the province’s politics has been more deeply shaken after the RCMP laid 52 charges on Monday against one current and three former members of the legislature.
The charges, resulting from a criminal investigation of members’ constituency expenses, include fraud, theft and breach of trust.
Premier Darrell Dexter said the charges will make it more diffi cult to get people to participate in politics.
INTERNATIONALCHICAGO - Energy
drinks are under-studied, overused and can be danger-ous for children and teens, warns a report by doctors who say kids shouldn’t use the popular products.
The potential harms, caused mostly by too much caffeine or similar ingredi-ents, include heart palpita-tions, seizures, strokes and even sudden death, the authors write in the medi-cal journal Pediatrics. They reviewed data from the
government and interest groups, scientifi c literature, case reports and articles in popular and trade media.
Dakota Sailor, 18, a high school senior in Carl Junc-tion, Missouri, says risks linked with energy drinks aren’t just hype.
***QUITO, Ecuador - An
Ecuadorean judge ruled Monday that Chevron Corp. was responsible for oil con-tamination in a wide swath of Ecuador’s northern jungle. The plaintiffs’ attorney says the company was fi ned $8 billion.
Chevron confi rmed the ruling but not the amount of the fi ne. The company said in
a news release that it would appeal, and called the judge’s decision “illegitimate and unenforceable.”
The high-profi le case, fraught with intrigue, cor-porate espionage and geo-politics, had been winding its way through U.S. and Ecuadorean courts for 17 years.

Viruses Sometimes Attack the Heart
DEAR DR. DONO-HUE: A friend in his late 40s thought he had the fl u and called his doctor for medicine. Later he had trouble breathing and went to the emergency room, where they said he was hav-ing a heart attack. Several hours later, he passed away. An autopsy showed that a virus had attacked his heart. I know there are many types of viruses, but what kind did he have? How does a person get this kind of virus? If it had been found in time, could something have been done to stop it? -- R.R.
A N S W E R : Yo u r friend had myocarditis, an infl ammation of the heart. Viruses are one cause of it. The virus most often involved is the Coxsackie virus, named after the New York town where it was fi rst identifi ed.
Myocarditis can be so mild that it produces no symptoms. Or it can be so overwhelming that it is fatal. It occurs at any age. Often, a respiratory infec-tion (even a common cold) or a gastrointestinal dis-order (stomach fl u) might precede it. A young person -- and your friend is consid-ered young -- struggling to breathe puts the doctor on alert to suspect that a failing heart is responsible and that a viral infection of the heart could be the cause.
Coxsackie viruses are transmitted from one per-son to the next through respiratory droplets or from foods, hands or utensils contaminated with the virus.
We have no medicine that kills this virus. Most of the time, none is needed, since nearly all Coxsackie infections are minor trou-bles. In cases like your friend’s, medicines to keep the heart beating forcefully usually can tide a person over the dangerous period of heart failure.
Your friend’s story is tragic.
The booklet on con-gestive heart failure de-scribes the more common kinds of it, not the kind due to viral infections. Read-
ers can order a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue -- No. 103W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the reader’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery.
***DEAR DR. DONO-
HUE: I am 90 years old. About three years ago I developed foot drop. A neurologist diagnosed the condition. My general health is good, consider-ing my age. This foot drop has become debilitating. Is there anything I can do to take care of it? --M.S.
ANSWER: Foo t drop isn’t really a diag-nosis. It’s an observation of what’s happened to your foot. You cannot raise the front part of your foot off the ground when you take a step. The drooping foot makes it hard to walk. You have to lift the leg very high so the foot clears the ground. Finding out what made
the foot drop is going to be your diagnosis.
Nerve damage, back problems, stroke, diabetes and muscle illnesses are some of the causes of foot drop, and they are the actual diagnosis. Many times, the problem is nerve malfunc-tion. Quite often, health cannot be restored to the nerve, but things can be done. One of those things is a lightweight brace that keeps the foot from fl op-ping downward when you take a step.
***Dr. Donohue regrets
that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible. Readers may write him or request an order form of available health newslet-ters at P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.

French speech artsSacred Heart School’s French immersion students took part in Concours D’Art Oratoire, French Speech Arts, last week. The event pitted 20 students from Grade 6, 7 and 8 to compete for the opportunity to challenge for the provincial title in Saskatoon. The panel of judges was made up of French students from the Estevan Comprehensive School. Aurora Whitehead, a Grade 7 student, speaks before the judges.
By Samantha Weaver• It was British author
and publisher Ernest Benn who made the following observation: “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, fi nding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incor-rectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”
• If you live in Mich-igan, make sure you keep this in mind: If you want to hunt with
a slingshot, you’ll need a special license.
• If you took all the other planets in our solar system and rolled them into one big ball, that ball would fi t inside the gas gi-ant Jupiter.
• Although Billy the Kid was a notorious 19th-century outlaw, he never robbed a store, a stagecoach, a bank or a train.
• A fl ea can jump 13 inches in a single leap. That may not seem like much, but to achieve a comparable
feat, you would have to make a 700-foot jump.
• Those who wish to cut federal spending today might want to take note of this historical fact: In 1790, United States senators earned a grand total of $6 per day -- and only when Congress was in session.
• The ancient Romans appreciated smooth, hairless skin -- but to get that look they used pumice stones to sand off the hair. Ouch.

• To clean artifi cial fl owers, place the arrange-ment fl owers fi rst into a paper bag. Add a cup of salt and gather the open-ing of the bag around the stems of the fl owers. Twist closed and hold tightly at the stems. Shake the arrangement vigorously. The salt beats the dust off the fl owers. Hold the bag upside down for a second and shake lightly to make sure all the salt granules fall off into the bag, and then remove the arrange-ment.
• Ink stains can some-times be removed from clothing or furniture uphol-stery by using rubbing al-cohol or hairspray. Using a clean paper towel or white cloth, spray the ink, and
immedia te ly dab and press several times. Repeat using a clean portion of the cloth un-til the stain is removed.
• “I pur-chase l a rge
pieces of cheese from my bulk retailer. I keep it fresh and mold-free by wrapping it in cheesecloth that I have sprayed with plain white vinegar.” -- E.C. in Indiana
• “I use an old hair-brush to remove the lint from the trap on my dryer. My hands and my grip aren’t what they used to be, and sometimes it would be hard to get the lint started. The brush is easy to use, and I just swipe it over the screen and knock the lint off into a small trash can.” -- A.L. in Ontario, Canada
• “I purchased a car-washing kit several years ago, and forgot about it. I have gotten rid of my car, and didn’t have any use for
it. I removed the washing mitt before I gave it away, and I found an excellent use for it -- as a dusting mitt. It has a texture that picks up dust and holds it, and to me, it’s worth the price of the kit itself.” -- V.H. in Texas

Mahogany Chicken
Just rub the skin with salt and pepper, then brush with the luscious glaze during the last 30 minutes of cooking time.
1 (3 1/2-pound) chick-en
3/4 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon coarsely
ground black pepper2 tablespoons dark
brown sugar2 tablespoons bal-
samic vinegar2 tablespoons dry ver-
mouthFresh oregano and
rosemary, for garnish
1. Preheat oven to 375 F. Remove giblets and neck from chicken; refrigerate for use another day. Rinse chicken and drain well.
2 . Wi t h c h i c k e n breast-side up, lift wings up toward neck, then fold
them under back of chicken so they stay in place. With string, tie legs together.
3 . Place chicken, breast-side up, on rack in small roasting pan; rub with salt and pepper. Insert meat thermometer into thickest part of thigh, next to body, being careful that pointed end of thermom-eter does not touch bone.
4. Roast chicken 45 minutes. Meanwhile, pre-pare glaze: In small bowl, stir brown sugar, balsamic vinegar and vermouth until sugar dissolves.
5. After chicken has roasted 45 minutes, brush with some glaze. Turn oven control to 400 F and roast chicken 30 minutes longer, brushing with glaze twice more during roast-ing, until chicken turns a deep brown, thermometer reaches 180 F, and juices run clear when thickest part of thigh is pierced with
tip of knife. Place chicken on warm large platter; let stand 15 minutes for easier carving.
6. Meanwhile, add 1/4 cup water to roasting pan; over medium heat, heat to boiling, stirring to loosen brown bits. Remove pan from heat; skim and discard fat. Serve chicken with pan juices. Garnish with fresh herbs. Serves 4.

THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2011 Page 15
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Whatever deci-sions you’re faced with this week, rely on your strong Aries instincts, and base them on your honest feelings, not necessarily on what others might expect you to do.
TAURUS (April 30 to May 20) Your sensitive Tau-rean spirit is pained by what you feel is an unwarranted attack by a miffed colleague. But your sensible self should see it as proof that you must be doing something right.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) More fi ne-tuning might be in order before you can be absolutely certain that you’re on the right track. Someone close to you might offer to help. The weekend favors family get-togethers.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The week continues to be a balancing act ‘twixt dreaming and doing. But by week’s end, you should have a much better idea of what you actually plan to do and
how you plan to do it.LEO (July 23 to August
22) Changing your plans can be risky, but it can also be a necessary move. Recheck your facts before you act. Tense encounters should ease by midweek, and all should be well by the weekend.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You might still be trying to adjust to recent changes. But things should improve consider-ably as you get to see some positive results. An uneasy personal matter calls for more patience.
LIBRA (September 23
to October 22) Congratula-tions. Your good intentions are fi nally recognized, and long-overdue appreciation should follow. Keep work-ing toward improvements wherever you think they’re necessary.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 2) Try to look at your options without pre-judging any of them. Learn the facts, and then make your assessments. Spend the weekend enjoying fi lms, plays and musical events.
SAGITTARIUS (No-vember 22 to December 21) Someone might want to take advantage of the Sagittar-ian’s sense of fair play. But before you ride off to right what you’ve been told is a wrong, be sure of your facts.
CAPRICORN (De-cember 22 to January 19) You might be surprised to learn that not everyone agrees with your ideas. But
this can prove to be a good thing. Go over them and see where improvements can be made.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) After taking advice on a number of matters in recent months, expect to be called on to re-turn the gesture. And, by the way, you might be surprised at who makes the request.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Reassure everyone concerned that a change of mind isn’t neces-sarily a change of heart. You might still want to pursue a specifi c goal, but feel a need to change the way you’ll get there.
BORN THIS WEEK: You are able to make room in your heart for others, and that makes you a very special person in their lives.

Math Activities Kids Can Count On
1 + 1 = 6. Can that be?When you put on your
thinking cap and get cre-ative, you’ll discover, for example, that 1 bicycle + 1 wagon = 6 wheels. It re-ally does add up. It’s just a matter of how you look at it and what you’re counting.
Developing divergent
thinking through wacky equations is the premise of the new children’s book “1 + 1 = 5 and Other Unlikely Ad-ditions,” written by David LaRochelle and whimsically illustrated by Bren-
da Sexton. Open the book, and you’ll be ready to put your imagination where your math is with the fi rst puzzling equation: 1 + 1 = 3? Turn the page to reveal that the answer is the sum of the horns of the unicorn and the goat.
Ponder and discover that 1 + 1 = 5 because 1 set of triplets + 1 set of twins = 5 babies. Or, be
surprised when 1 worm + 1 snake = 0 feet! Filled with 12 more sums that jive, it’s a page-turner that keeps young minds sharp and entertained. It won’t take long for your kids to discover that there are multiple answers to a question, and many ways to add 1 + 1.
Using math in daily living is good training and mental exercise for all ages. Try these fun
activities that are all about the numbers waiting to be counted wherever your family goes.
--Look at items in your house or yard, and come up with your own wacky equa-tion. Write it on one side of an index card or heavy sheet of paper and the solu-tion on the other side. Add drawings, stickers, photos or magazine cutouts to hint at the puzzle’s theme. Make several equations
over time, and put them to-gether in your own family book of unlikely additions. Enjoy sharing it and chal-lenging friends who come to your home.
--Learn how to count in another language. Prac-tice the words when count-ing steps on the stairway, apple slices on a plate or spots on your dog.
Resource: Find more activities and a handy teacher’s guide suitable for use by parents at www.davidlarochelle.net.

“Healing Spices: How to Use 50 Every-day and Exotic Spices to Boost Health and
Beat Disease”by Bharat B. Aggarwal, Ph.D, with Debora Yost(Sterling Books, $24.95)Reviewed by Larry Cox
The next time you need a little help to fi ght the fl u, calm an unsettled stomach or lose unwanted pounds, look to your spice cabinet instead of patent medicines from the drug-store.
Spices originated in
ancient India, Indonesia and other parts of Asia as early as 2600 B.C., but it is only recently that their unique healing aspects have been fully realized. Bharat B. Aggarwal, who earned his doctorate in biochemistry from the University of California at Berkeley, builds a convinc-ing case that many spices are super-rich sources of unique phytonutrients -- plant compounds that fi ght oxidation and infl am-mations, the two processes underlying most chronic diseases. As Aggarwal points out, studies world-wide have linked spices to the prevention and treat-ment of more than 150 health problems, includ-ing heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer and even Alzheimer’s.
The medicinal and culinary history and uses of 50 of these spices --- such as aniseed, cin-namon, garlic, sage and vanilla --- are featured in this new book, along with delicious recipes that use them. For example, cin-namon can help to balance blood sugar. With the type 2 diabetic outbreak becom-ing more and more critical in this country, this use of cinnamon is important. Added to morning oatmeal, the combination becomes a super food.
Other benefi cial spices documented in this book include lemongrass (calm-ing spice), saffron (uplifts mood), rosemary (a cancer fi ghter), oregano (infec-tion protector), kokum (India’s exotic weight-loss wonder) and garlic (an anti-aging spice that also fi ghts cancer, colds and heart disease).
This well-documented and accessible reference guide is certain to change our thinking about the fam-ily spice cabinet.

Luscious Lunches
Are you sick of sand-wiches, chips and baby carrots? The healthy and resourceful ideas below can spice up your lunchbox, require minimal preparation time and will help you look forward to your noon meal again.
Pasta NoodlesCook up a batch of
noodles the night before and store them in the re-frigerator, or use leftover pasta noodles, and you have the beginnings of a tasty cold salad for lunch. Fill one-half of a bowl-sized portable container with cold noodles. Add bite-sized cooked meats or fi sh, or throw in some beans or nuts. Chop a tomato, some mushrooms, peas, black olives, onions, spinach, celery, carrots, asparagus -- anything you fi nd appealing and have on hand. Grapes, raisins, strawberries and apples can be added, too. For more fl avor, add cheese, an herb blend, some light mayonnaise, olive oil and lemon juice, or your favorite dressing.
RiceRice is a healthful
and fi lling grain. Choose brown rice to add the health benefi ts of whole grain to your meal. Line a tortilla, lettuce or cabbage leaf, or a sheet of nori (seaweed) with cold, cooked rice. Then add your favorite fi lling, such as tuna, cheese, nuts, sliced
vegetables, citrus fruits or whatever your taste buds dictate! Add a sauce if you like such as salsa, light sour cream or soy sauce. Roll up your treat and slice it into 1- to 2-inch sections for a noontime treat -- either heated or cold.
DipsEveryone loves dip-
ping foods, so make your lunch a festive dipping occasion! Pack foods that are long and thin: sliced peppers, carrots or celery; asparagus, beans or pea pods; pretzels, bread sticks or cheese strips; or apple, orange or pear slices. Peanut butter, light cream cheese, yogurt, soy sauce, salsa, tomato sauce and salad dressings make great dips and can quickly be poured into a small con-tainer for lunch on the go. If you have more time, try craft-ing your own dips. Canned pumpkin can be blended with l i gh t c r eam cheese with a little maple syr-up for a sweet dip. Chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice and tahini (sesame paste) pureed together make a nice hummus base to which you can add spices for more fl a-vor. Minced garlic, chopped basil, Parmesan cheese and olive oil make a hearty
pesto; add ground nuts for more texture.
Don’t forget safety! If you’re packing your lunch to take with you, keep your foods at a safe, cold temperature. Put your water bottle in the freezer the night before, and pack the bottle close to the perishable foods in your lunch pack. That way you can enjoy ice-cold water with your lunch.
My recipe for Protein-Packed Pasta Salad is a great way to use leftover pasta and vegetables. It’s also an interesting way to incorpo-rate alternative sources of protein into your diet in the form of lentils. It’s delicious hot or cold and makes lunch a luscious affair!
PROTEIN-PACKED PASTA
SALAD
Lentils are often used as a meat substitute through-out North Africa and the Middle and Far East, and provide the protein in this nourishing salad. Lentils come in three main varieties and colors: French brown, Egyptian red and yellow lentils. Lentils are easy to
cook, but canned varieties also work well in this salad.
2 cups (about 6 ounces) spaghetti or small, whole-wheat shell macaroni
1 (15-ounce) can len-tils, drained
6 cherry tomatoes, cut in half
3/4 cup chopped broc-coli, green beans or as-paragus
1/4 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
1/2 purple onion, diced1 stalk celery, diced1/2 large carrot, sliced
into rounds1 teaspoon salt1 teaspoon freshly
ground black pepper1/8 teaspoon cayenne
pepper1 cup Light Italian
salad dressing3 cups Romaine let-
tuce, torn
1. Cook pasta accord-ing to the package direc-tions. Drain pasta and set aside.
2. Drain the lentils. In a large mixing bowl, combine lentils, pasta, to-matoes, broccoli (or green vegetable of choice), bell pepper, onion, celery, car-
rots, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Toss to mix.
3. Pour Italian salad dressing over pasta mixture. Toss to coat. Cover and chill for 2 hours to allow the fl a-vors to combine. Serve on a bed of Romaine lettuce. Makes 4 servings.

Cooked until they are tender and golden, these roasted vegetables can accompany almost any winter meal -- especially roasted meat and poultry.
1 1/2 pounds medium-size red potatoes
2 medium (about 1 3/4 pounds) fennel bulbs
2 medium (about 1 pound) red onions
2 medium (each about 1 pound) acorn squash
5 medium carrots4 medium parsnipsOlive or salad oil2 teaspoons chicken-
fl avor instant bouillon1 teaspoons coarsely
ground black pepper3/4 teaspoon salt3/4 teaspoon dried
thyme leavesFresh thyme sprigs,
for garnish
1. Cut potatoes into 2-inch chunks. Cut root ends and stalks from fen-nel bulbs; cut each bulb lengthwise through the root end into 4 wedges. Cut each onion into 4 wedges. Cut each squash lengthwise into quarters; discard seeds. Cut each quarter crosswise into 2 pieces. Cut carrots and parsnips crosswise in half. (If carrots and parsnips are thick, cut thick portion lengthwise in half.)
2. Preheat oven to
400 F. Evenly divide veg-etables between 2 large roasting pans, each about 17 by 11 1/2 inches (or between 1 large roasting pan and one 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 inch jelly-roll pan). Toss vegetables in each pan with 2 tablespoons olive or salad oil. In small bowl, mix bouillon, pepper, salt and thyme. Toss half the seasoning mixture with vegetables in each pan.
3. Arrange pans on 2 oven racks. Roast veg-etables 30 minutes, stirring once. Switch pans on oven racks; roast 20 to 30 min-utes longer, stirring once, until vegetables are tender and nicely browned.
4. Remove vegetables to warm large platter. Pour 2 tablespoons hot water into each pan, stirring to loosen brown bits. Pour liquid from each pan over vegetables. Garnish with thyme sprigs. Serves 8.

Safety From Gas Leaks
DEAR HAMMER: I wanted to relate a story that your readers might find helpful. Last month, in the middle of the night, I woke up to the very strong smell of gas throughout my house. I immediately got everyone up and told them to get out of the house. All the burner controls on my kitchen stove appeared to be in the off position. I didn’t try to turn off the gas at the meter because it is located in my basement and the gas odor was so strong I was wor-ried about an explosion.
Instead, my family and I went to the neighbor’s house across the street, woke them up and called the fi re depart-ment from there. They got
there quickly and shut off the gas supply. The culprit was a faulty joint in a gas supply pipe just past the meter, which was quickly repaired the next day by a specialist who also checked out the entire system.
Please tell your readers to have an emergency plan ready in case they have to quickly evacuate the house, and make sure your kids, even the youngest ones, know it. I’m really proud of my wife and kids, who got up with hardly any questions and got out of the house with just their pajamas and slippers on during a cold night. But I’m still going over the incident in my head to think of ways to get out safely, or even better, to prevent this situation from happening again. Hopefully my experience can help oth-ers. -- James G., Amherst, Mass.
DEAR JAMES: Thanks so much for relating your ex-perience! I’m glad everyone was OK. This is a way of sounding a wake-up call to
readers who haven’t thought much lately about home safety. An evacuation plan is a must, as is regularly checking carbon monoxide and smoke detectors to make sure they’re working properly, keeping fi re extinguishers within easy reach near areas of open fl ame (like the stove or fi replace) and educating your kids about safety in and around the home.
HOME TIP: Know the location of your home’s gas meter, the main water-shutoff valve and the electrical circuit box so they can be quickly ac-cessed by you or emergency personnel.
Send your questions or home tips to [email protected], or write This Is a Hammer, c/o King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. When in doubt as to whether you can safely or effectively complete a proj-ect, consult a professional contractor.
