A shriek, You killed her! rung out on Tuesday, April 12, just
north of G.F. Kells High School. You were drink-ing and driving,
and you killed her!
Students of S.A.D.D. had set up a mock col-lision to emphasize
the dangers of driving while intoxicated and distract-ed
driving.
As students exit-ed the school to watch the scene unfold they
were solemn realizing the wait for help feels like a very long
time. Finally the sounds of sirens could be heard in the distance.
The ambulance was the rst to arrive, checking on the driver they
found he had a few scrapes and scratches, but had come away
relatively unscathed. A backseat passenger that was able to get out
of the car from the drivers side was frantically yelling and
screaming at the driver.
EMS worked their way to the other side of the car where a
deceased passenger was pulled from the car and a blanket laid over
them. The Fire Department then arrived on the scene, while RCMP and
a second ambulance followed closely behind.
As the driver was arrested by police, the rest of the emergency
crew set to work on extracting the pinned passenger, which included
the Jaws of Life. As the Fire Department set to work removing the
roof of the vehicle the pinned passenger was covered with a blanket
and comforted by one of the EMTs on the scene. Eventually they were
able to remove the individual and place them on a stretch-er.
Josh Brown, a student at G.F. Kells and mem-ber of S.A.D.D.,
played the part of the mock colli-
sions driver. When asked about how playing the part a ected him
that morning he explained, It was scary. It might be made up, but
it puts you in that position. Its hard to think about being in that
situation and you realize how real it is, that it can happen to
anyone, and I never want to really be in that situation.
The students headed to the gym for a short presentation
regarding the scene they had just wit-nessed. However, in reality
emergency crews could be out there for much longer, Sta Sergeant
Darren Simons explained that he has spent eight hours at a scene
before which could include searching for passengers ejected from
the vehicle, waiting for the construction specialists, and
more.
That was quick, Sta Sgt. Simons stated.
It usually takes a lot longer and there are usually curve balls
thrown at you when youre dealing with a scene. As a police o cer
were responsible for ar-resting the accused and then protecting the
accused because people often are so angry they want to hurt them.
Then we also have to protect the crime scene, a criminal
investigation is held which can take two to three hours for the
reconstructionists to investi-gate and nothing gets moved until
they see it. Eight hours is the longest Ive been at a scene and the
re department is there the entire time doing tra c control.
Sta Sgt. Simons explained that his rst ex-perience involving
someone who had been drinking
Mock Collision brings real discussion to students of G.F.K.

driving occurred when he was approximately 17-years-old: I was
still in high school and half of my cousins basket-ball team was
killed by a drunk driver. It was 3:30 in the afternoon and he had
side swiped the teams vehicle and put it into another vehicle. The
rest of the team had ar-rived at their destination,
but were told their other teammates wouldnt be coming. And on
Monday, my science partner didnt show up, I realized that I would
never see him again.
Being emergency per-sonnel comes with mem-ories that cant be
erased, which is often made worse in a small town as volunteer re
ghters and
Sta Sgt. Simons said. Oftentimes in small com-munities the
emergency responders know the in-dividual, which makes it very di
cult to work the scene.
The most di cult part for me is going and knocking on a door or
ringing a bell, Sta Sgt. Simons stated. Its tough to tell someone
that
theyve lost a loved one.Cst. Je Smoliak add-
ed, Theres no build up to a collision, it happens very quickly.
And speed, what you saw out there was nothing compared to on the
highway with a car versus a semi or a car versus a car. The human
body is extremely frail and even an airbag going o will hurt
you.
Zach Brown, an EMT, explained that in Carlyle there are two
ambulances available, but in the event of a collision it could take
time for resources to become available as one ambulance could be
out on a call already and a second ambulance may have to travel
from another community. Theres the time waiting for their arrival
on the scene, transportation to the hospital, and then as needed
transporta-tion through STARS, Air Ambulance, or the drive to
Regina.
Its dangerous for us to be out there as well, Brown said. Were
often working along the side of the road before anyone has shown up
to control tra c, so if you see us out there please be careful and
slow down.

The April sale of Saskatchewans petroleum and natural gas rights
raised $3.1 million for the province, bringing the scal years total
so far to $8.1 million. The industry continues to pay premium
prices on a per-hectare basis in Saskatchewan. For the 2016
calendar year to date, Saskatchewans public o ering has averaged
$404 per hectare, whereas Alberta has averaged $114 per hectare and
British Columbia has averaged $243 per hectare. There is no
question that when the price of oil drops signi cantly, the markets
react and
April sale of Saskatchewan land rights raises $3.1 million
consequently raising investment capital is more di cult for the
oil and gas industry, Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. However,
Saskatchewans reputation as an opportunity-rich, low-cost
operat-ing environment is unchanged among conventional producers,
and the province is well-positioned for the moment when prices
rebound. Saskatchewan received the highest ranking in Canada and
placed in the worlds top 10 in the Fra-ser Institutes most recent
annual Global Petroleum Survey of attractive jurisdictions for
investment in petroleum exploration and development.
The April public o ering saw the Estevan area receive the most
bids at $2,642,429. The highest price paid for a single parcel was
$1,104,666. STOMP Energy Ltd. acquired the 259-hectare lease
located west of Estevan. This parcel was also the highest price on
a per-hectare basis at $4,265 and is in an area that has proven oil
production from the Bakken Formation, Three Forks Group/Torquay
Formation and the Midale Beds. The next sale of Crown petroleum and
natural gas rights will be held on June 7, 2016.

Seven students from White Bear Education Complex represented
their school at Saskatchewans rst-ever First Nations Spelling Bee
Friday, April 8 in North Battleford. Mystique Bigstone, Katelyn
Desjarlais, Taya La-vallee, Delilah Littlechief, Mercedez
Littlechief, Isaiah McMann-Ross and River Whitebear earned their
places on Team Whitebear after competing with their fellow pupils
to represent their school at the competition. Over 130 students
from 21 Sas-katchewan First Nations communities gathered at North
Battlefords Don Ross Centre for the inaugural event. WBEC Grade
Three teacher Saldina Mujkic-who organized WBECs
participation-says: The biggest part of this event is that its an
academic event. There are lots of athletic events for students to
participate in, but the spelling bee is an excellent opportu-nity
for the kids to use and showcase their academics. We had a spelling
bee at White Bear and since November, weve had contest practices
for the provincial spelling bee, adds Mujkic. We could send a
maximum of three students
Seven students from the White Bear Education Complex competed in
Saskatchewans rst-ever First Nations Spelling Bee in North
Battleford on Friday, April 8. Prior to the competition, students
from WBEC practiced spelling and memorized a list of 400 words for
months before the event. The seven pupils pictured here emerged as
the winners from White Bear and went on to compete against over 130
students from 21 Saskatchewan First Nations. Pictured here in the

per category-primary, junior and in-termediate. The kids all did
a great job, es-pecially since they travelled seven hours each way
to get there. Isaiah (McMann-Ross) brought home the second-place
trophy, Mercedez (Littlechief) placed fourth, Katelyn (Desjarlais)
came fth, and Mystique (Bigstone) placed eighth. Im proud of them
all and how they represented our school, says Mujkic. I really want
people to know that its not just a simple spell-ing bee. They had
to memorize 400 words-some of which were ridiciously di cult. Then
they had to stand up on stage, speak into a microphone, and spell
out loud in front of a lot of people. It took a lot of time and e
ort from them. Eight-year-old Isaiah McMann-Ross, who brought home
the second-place trophy-and narrowly missed earning rst-place-
says, It was good. I was nervous, but it was exciting, too.
Fourth-place winner Mercedez Littlechief, 8, says: It was fun and
some of my family was there watching me and my dad came from
Winnipeg to see me. Mystique Bigstone, 12-who placed eighth in her
category-agrees. It was pretty fun but it was kind of scary, too.
But it was more fun than scary and it was a great experience. I was
very anxious, says Katelyn Desjarlais, 11. It was a good
experi-ence, but it was scary, too. I was kind of shaking on the
stage. We were all sitting in four rows of chairs. Once I walked up
to the microphone and started spelling a few times, it was more
relaxing. I came in fth-place. River Whitebear, 12, said he was
pretty focused during the competi-tion. I tried to concentrate on
spell-ing and not get too nervous. I was nervous, excited, happy
and sad, says 10-year-old Taya Laval-lee. But I worked really hard
and Im glad I went. Weve been working since December to memorize
those words. Delilah Littlechief, 11, agrees. It was like history,
she says. We had a seven-hour van ride both ways and I would go
again. Im very proud of them all, says Mujkic. And the Bear Claw
Casino was a huge help. They allowed us to fundraise there and our
(educational assistant) Angela McArthur made bannock for us to sell
there. Without them, we couldnt have made this trip. Were de nitely
going back-and this time, were going for gold.

Wawota photographer Kim Lamontagne hasnt looked back since she
started seriously pursuing photography almost eight years ago, when
she was in her thirties and her children were almost grown. Since
then, Lamontagne has amassed a library of over 16,000 images, has
earned awards for her work, and will be part of an upcoming gallery
show this year in Regina. Lamontagnes images are inspired by the
future, but her work is also driven by her personal past. My
favourite image is the one I will take tomorrow, she says. But my
little brother (Michael Brimner) was killed and we dont have many
pictures of him, because he didnt like to have his picture taken.
You never think about that, but I do now.
Lamontagne says her interest in photography was always there,
but I didnt have a really good camera until my kids were both in
high school. When I was young I was interested in photography, but
it was viewed as sort of an uncool thing back then.
My rst good camera was a Canon Rebel and now I shoot with a
Canon 5D Mark III. Of course, I really wish I had a better camera
when my kids were really little, but Im ready for the grandchildren
now, she laughs. And with my little brother, I try to drill it into
my son (Justin) and my daughter (Kristin) how important it is to
capture those important people and memories with a camera.
Although her subjects range from the lights of the Las Vegas
strip to natures northern lights, Lamontagne says she is largely
inspired by the natural beauty of her home province.
Ive been lucky enough to travel a bit, she says. Ive
photographed Vegas and hopefully, this spring my husband Bob and I
will travel to the States, where I hope to photograph some ghost
towns in North Dakota, and Im contemplating a trip to the Yukon
with (Tornado Hunter and photographer) Greg Johnson for a workshop
hes holding there.
But I love the sunsets and stu -
the stu that really says Saskatchewan and country, says
Lamontagne. I like to go down a backroad thats not well-travelled
and Ill nd an old barn or something like that. Those are things
that really touch my heart.
Although Lamontagne holds herself to a high technical standard,
she says; I like the creative side maybe more than the technical
side. But its important to learn and perfect the technical end.
Then with the creative side, you can create something thats yours,
by using Photoshop or another one of the many di erent tools, so
you can create an image thats di erent from everybody elses.
Im really fussy and picky, she adds. If its not tack-sharp, I
dont want to put it out there. Thats one of the things I learned
from (photographer) Douglas Walker. He holds a workshop every year
at Kenosee Lake and he taught me that instead of holding onto every
picture-and people will get bored ipping through a bunch of
pictures of the same subject-choose the one that stops you in your
tracks. Thats the one you show.
There are a lot of amazing photographers who inspire me, she
adds. Douglas Walker is one. And as a member of the Moose Mountain
Photography club, there are a lot of people who inspire me,
starting with my fellow members.
William Sinclair from Kenosee encourages photographers to make
photos into art by manipulating the original image. Lori Maxim of
Regina taught me a lot of the technical part of photography. So did
Paul Cutting, also of Regina. I took a workshop with Dave Brosha
from Prince Edward Island who was amazing regarding night photos. I
also took a few workshops with Greg Johnson, the Tornado Hunter and
I learned a lot from him about shooting in all kinds of
weather.
I really love the northern lights, says Lamontagne. I love
photographing them and I can easily sit there for an hour and just
watch them. And I like going down roads that arent well-travelled,
but thats not without surprises, either.
Once I was down a back road and I just kept shooting and kept
moving my vehicle. I was taking pictures and I noticed a truck was
following me. It turned out to be the DNR (Department of Natural
Resources). I dont know who was more surprised-me or them!
The rst time I ever went out shooting at night, I was surprised
I ever did it again, she laughs. There was a pumpjack and it wasnt
moving, but two big turkey vultures seemed to come out from nowhere
and ew right towards me. I stayed and nished the shoot, but I think
all of Wawota heard me that night!
Although Lamontagne has won awards for her work, she remains
focused on the joy of the process and excited about future
photographic challenges.
I was in total shock when I won the (View Bug) online
competition, she says. I won for a picture of chuckwagon horses and
the second one was a picture of a little red barn in the
frost near Yorkton. And Im really liking the abstract
prints now. Id also like to work more with long exposures.
Im moving into creative portraits of kids. I really want to
learn more about the portraiture of kids and the editing, she adds.
Today, you can make the image of someone more natural, but you can
also make it pop. In the old days, if you were doing a portrait of
someone, you had to take what you got.
Theres so much to learn with photography and really, you
probably cant do it all, so you have to pick and choose, she
says.
But youre never too old to do it. There are so many
photographers out there-to learn from and to be inspired by.
Its never too late.To learn more or to purchase
Lamontagnes work, check out Valley View Art Photography on
Facebook or call (306)-739-2550.

awlessly, thanks to the efforts of stage managers and prompters
Brittany Rowe and Kelly Hume, who oversaw lights and sound. And the

The Arcola School Senior Drama put on their annual production
which they had been working on for the Region One Drama Festival.
The group hosted their school at 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 12,
and welcomed the community to the MacMurray Theatre that evening.
This year the drama group decided upon the play Building Blocks by
Jeffrey Harr, which addresses societies gender stereotypes based on
what a young boy and girl hear from their parents. These gender
stereotypes are addressed and broken as the children begin to play
together. Therer a gazillion-jillion things girls stink at. Like
throwin a baseball, and runnin for vice pepsodent, and beatin
people up. Sure cant build nothin. Evrybody knows, girls were put
on this Earth for one thing and one thing only: to spend a mans
money, the boy (Jay James) says to the audience. Well, thats what
my
daddy says, anyway. The boy eventually allows the girl to build
with him, but they have a con ict: Therer a trillion-kajillion
things boys are stupid about. Like shoppin for shoes, askin for
directions, and memberin to put the toilet seat down. Snot that
hard to member, unless youre stupid. Men were put on this Earth for
one reason and one reason only: to make women crazy, the girl
(Shaleen Hengen) says to the audience. Well, thats what my mommy
says, anyway. The two continue to squabble, worry about catching
cooties, and eventually the boy tells her to leave his blocks
alone. The girl becomes visibly upset, crying. The boy apologizes
and they begin to build together. As the boy builds a football
stadium he is surprised that the girl knows about the NFL and is a
Browns fan, just like him.

It was the strangest thing I had a weekend at home with no
volleyball and I was at a complete loss for what to do. Sitting at
home Friday night, usually were driving somewhere, I wondered what
people do. I watched a movie, ate supper, and got bored. So off I
went to the gym and I did a short work-out and stretching
session.
Again the next day, I had a little bit of work to do, but that
wasnt going to ll my entire day. So, I read, watched The Millennium
trilogy, and by 3 p.m. was back at the gym for another hour
session. Not because I typically workout, but because I was at a
loss of what to do.
Sunday then popped up and luckily I had plans for 11 a.m., it
was off to the lake for a hike with some friends and then lunch to
follow. It was so nice to catch up with them because oftentimes
schedules get in the way. One of them, weve been trying to have
supper together for the last three weeks or so, but it just hasnt
worked out. But then, again I was at a loss for what I could do for
the afternoon. Luckily the individual I coach with
was also bored, so off to Dairy Queen for coffee and then to the
ball diamonds to play catch.
I lled my days with things, but it was still weird and felt like
something was missing. Usually if Im not coaching then I have
events to get to for work and writing to do, but nope. Last year I
can honestly say with us running two teams that I was ready for a
break and very much enjoyed doing very little the rst few weekends,
well maybe not very little I ran in a colour run in Arcola and then
drove to Regina for the Globe Theatre.
This year, however, I guess my volleyball bug hasnt been fed
enough because even though I got to spend time with friends, got to
exercise, and cook (I had time to make asparagus/ricotta stuffed
chicken and then bake banana bread). All things I enjoy doing, I
still missed volleyball. The driving, the sitting inside a
sometimes poorly lit gymnasium for the day, and the competition I
simply missed it.
Luckily my volleyball addiction this year gets to go until the
end of July, but itll be different starting mid-May when our 16U
Vipers nish up and I begin helping with a 14U team.
Realizing my passion for volleyball, I hope other people nd
something they love to do as much as I love the sport.
Hooray for Hollywood. Or Bollywood. Or Vancouver. Or wherever
the lions share of movies are being made each year. We seem to love
movies. Sources say that when combining theatre ticket revenues,
DVD rentals, televised movies, on-demand services and on-line
options, a full 89% of the American population over the age of 8
watched a movie last year.
With so many seeking out movie options its a good thing there is
such a wide variety of cinematic choice: comedy, drama, adventure,
thriller, animation, foreign, horror, or even an occasional
musical.
My husband and I have opposite taste in movies. He loves ones
set in outer space, or in dystopian societies, or ones that have a
car chase, shoot out or explosion every few minutes. There has to
be something in the setting or story that completely sets it apart
from reality. My movie interests tend to lean towards more
conversationless commotion.
One summer I decided to attend a blockbuster action ick with my
family. The movie featured a number of super heroes valiantly
striving to save the world from its latest threat. There were a
tremendous number of ght scenes, explosions, and collapsing
buildings; countless special effects and much attention to the
destruction sequences to be sure. Impressive stuff. The script,
however, could have been written on a post-it note. Not much
dialogue in this one. But, to be honest, it was kind of fun.
In fact, some of the movies Ive enjoyed the most are ones that
came as surprises or ones that were different from my usual
choices.
Its kind of like friendship. People who have enriched my life
the most are ones that came unexpectedly; people that I would have
considered unlikely to become friends. But their different points
of view, different types of jobs, and variety of life experience
has made our interactions interesting, thought provoking, and a
whole lot of fun. The same can be said of organizations. Or
communities.
Imagine if there was one, and only one, type of movie. Same
characters. Same setting. Same theme. The movie watching experience
would be decidedly less than entertaining. Happily, they are not
all the same or from the same director or producer. Just as in
life, all the individuals involved provide each scene with a depth
and richness that wouldnt be there if you wrote out one of the
characters or eliminated one of the plot points.
We each approach projects and conversations with a different
bent. Maybe theres a rough and tumble approach that comes across,
similar to a classic western. Maybe theres a pie in the sky,
unrealistic tone, aka fantasy. Or maybe rose-tinted ambitions that
could be construed as little more than romantic. But dont we need
them all? We need tough, respectable talk. We need dreamers. We
need those who choose to see the possible. We need those who
galvanize opinion, motivate volunteers and set the timeline for the
project to be released. All genres, all people, coming together in
a multiplex of ideas and plans. To be sure we can allow our
different points of view to lead to disagreements, bad feelings and
division; or we can take a page from each persons archive; honour
it, and add it to what is being done. Because when it comes to
community--we get to write the script.
We see things through different lenses and express those
opinions through dialogue unique to us. Not everyone will like it.
Some may even wish there was a director to yell cut if we get
rolling and they dont like what we have to say. But think about how
much better it would be if we wait to
A weekend off
see the scene play out and watch to see where it goes next. It
often takes us somewhere totally unexpected and far better than
anticipated. Instead of ending the dialogue, it is better to shut
down the
impulse to yell cut and instead say action. A far more complete
story gets told that way and its far more likely to get us to the
The End. Thats my outlook.

Through the LensBy Moose Mountain Photography Club
With the coming of spring,I am calm again.
- Gustav Mahler
Distracted driving, it encompasses everything from the driver
reading, eating, putting on make-up, to the use of an electronic
device (cell phone, GPS, etc).
Its the last one, the electronic devices, however, that have
become a large problem in society. People checking a text, sending
a text, checking Facebook, taking a phone call, looking for their
phone when it
begins to ring, and literally anything related to the cell
phone.
According to a Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) nationwide
survey, 22 percent of Canadian drivers admitted to texting behind
the wheel; but, Saskatchewan is one of the highest offenders with
35 percent of drivers in this province using their phone to check
email or text messages while behind the wheel.
Checking a unit converter online I discovered that 100 km/hr is
the equivalent of traveling 27.8 meters per second and lets face it
the majority of traf c along Hwy 13 is going at least 110 km/hr
which works out to 30.6 meters per second. Now how long are you
looking at your phone for? Just a few seconds? A few seconds, lets
say seven seconds in this instance. You are looking at moving 214
metres or 702 feet for those of you who are more inclined to the
imperial system. So, travelling 110 km/hr and looking down at your
phone for seven seconds means you have travelled quite a distance
in a very short amount of time.
The other day it took some friends and me about an hour, maybe a
little under but well call it even an even 60 minutes, to hike ve
kilometres. That means at a walking pace youre travelling 214
metres in about 2.6 minutes. Thats a ridiculously huge
difference.
Have you ever looked out the side window and watched the grass
where the ditch meets the road just whizzing by you? Humans werent
meant to go at the speeds we do in vehicles, our eyes cant pick up
whats happening, so it blurs. This means humans reacting to
situations on the road are essentially controlling a metal death
machine at high speeds with extremely slow reactions in
comparison.
Thats why youre supposed to go slower in poor weather or on
gravel roads, there are more variables that can contribute to you
having to react. On the highway in good conditions, its smooth and
your tires grip well, so a few variables are taken away. However,
at any time there could be a hazard in the road. Maybe something is
lost off of an unsecure load and is sitting in the road, maybe a
deer jumps out from the brush on the side of the road, or maybe
your tire blows and you have to react to it pulling you that
direction.
With your reaction time already hindered because youre moving
too fast for what humans are physically meant to move what does
looking at your phone for seven seconds do? Well, it can cause a
collision, cause injuries, or even cost lives.
Texting and driving is not worth it, so lets help Saskatchewan
bring down their numbers of engaged cell phone users on the road.
Lets prevent at least some of the 5,700 collisions caused by
distracted driving last year.
Its called cognitive dissonance. That is, most people have an
inner need to ensure that their beliefs match up with their
behaviors. And according to psychologist Leon Festinger-who wrote A
Theory of Cognitive Dissonance in 1957-Cognitive dissonance can be
seen as an antecedent condition which leads to activity oriented
toward dissonance reduction just as
hunger leads toward activity oriented toward hunger
reduction.
That is, most humans are so uncomfortable with beliefs and
actions that arent in alignment, that the internal disharmony they
experience-and their desire to reach internal consistency-is on a
par with a basic human need such as hunger.
But in Saskatchewan, when it comes to texting while driving? Not
so much.
This year, the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) released
the results of a survey which concluded that distracted driving
continues to be one of the top causes of automobile collisions in
this province, with 5,700 crashes occurring in 2015-all of them a
direct result of distracted
driving. The CAA also found that nationally, 22 percent of
drivers admitted to texting while driving. In Saskatchewan, that
gure jumped to 35 percent, with ve percent of the provinces
respondents admitting that they sent emails and texts regularly
while behind the wheel.
And demonstrating positive proof of Festingers theory, 90
percent of Saskatchewans respondents also stated that they believe
texting while driving was socially unacceptable.
Naturally, if we humans aim to deal effectively with the divide
between our beliefs and behaviors concerning distracted driving,
the solution is simple: Be aware of how potentially dangerous and
destructive a habit it is and stop-cold turkey-just stop.
There is no upside to distracted driving. But the potential
downsides are equal parts obvious and potentially dangerous-for
everyone on the road.
Carlyle RCMP Staff Sgt. Darren Simons agrees and says of the
current distracted driving statistics: Its brutal. People just feel
like they have to keep reaching for their phones to answer that
call or that text while theyre driving and its scary.
People just dont realize that a collision can occur in a short,
short time. Just pull over. Is it that important to answer that
call?
Pay attention, shut off the phone and
drive safe
Beliefs, behavior and distracted driving
Some of the most common driver distractions include:texting;
using a cellphone or smartphone; eating and drinking; talking to
passengers; grooming; reading, including maps; using a navi-gation
system or GPS; watching a video; adjusting a radio, CD or MP3
player; smoking; and pets.
Driver distraction and inattention is
1 of the major contributing factors
in fatal collisions

By Bruce PentonMike Weir is not
aging gracefully on the PGA Tour.
The most accomplished professional golfer in Canadian history
his major title at the 2003 Masters trumps any argument you might
want to put forth is limping to the finish line of his career as he
tries to keep sharp in preparation for the 50-and-over Champions
Tour.
Currently eligible on the regular Tour due to some major and
minor medical exemptions, Weir had 2016 starts in eight tournaments
guaranteed and more if he won a certain amount of money.
That hasnt come close to happening. Weir, who grew up in Sarnia,
Ont., but now lives in Utah and doesnt contribute much to the
growth of Canadian golf these days, is teeing it up Thursday and
Fridays, but having no success.
In fact, in his last 21 PGA Tour starts, Weir has had four
withdrawals and 17 missed cuts. His money earnings: Zero.He hardly
needs the money. His heyday on
the Tour brought in $28 million U.S. and he still has enough
cachet to cash in on a variety of endorsements. To date, Weir has
used up six of his eight tournament exemptions and needs to have a
couple of high finishes if he hopes to retain his eligibility for
the rest of the 2016 season. He could still play in some minor
league web.com tournaments, and will work on his game as much as
possible until he becomes eligible for the no-cut Champions Tour in
on his 50th birthday, May 12, 2020.Weir has every right to take
advantage of the favourable exempt-status rules to enter as many
tournaments as allowed, but the 46-year-old veteran must find it a
little embarrassing to miss cut after cut after cut while a young
player looking to get his career started is bumped from play when
Weir takes up one of the spots in the field. At the RBC Heritage
the week after the Masters, Weir withdrew after an opening-round 78
and South African Dawie van der Walt, who was second alternate, was
not pleased, tweeting: Gota (sic) love a guy who gets an invite
into a Tour event and then WD after the first round, using the
hashtag, #hangitupmike.By rough estimate, Weir has two more
tournaments to play before his eligibility expires. Maybe
lightning will strike and Weir will relive some golf course
magic, but the likelihood is that after two more weeks of futility,
it will another four years before we hear Weirs name again. Norman
Chad of the Washington Post, mocking Major League Baseball for its
obsession with pitch counts for young players: Did Dostoyevsky have
a word count? Did Rembrandt have a brushstroke count? Did Genghis
Khan have a conquered-territory count? From Dwight Perrys Sideline
Chatter in the Seattle Times, quoting from USA Today: Give-and-take
between Bubba Watson and a Masters fan, after Watson sliced a drive
into the trees and tried to address his ball:
Watson: Can you back up? Youre really not supposed to be back
here. Fan: Neither is your ball. Watson: I dont know about you, but
I have two green jackets. Thanks for coming. NBC late-night host
Seth Meyers: Tomorrow night will be Kobe Bryants last NBA game. He
says hes looking forward to retirement and his teammates are
looking forward to finding out what the ball feels like. Comedy

problems adjusting to retirement. He was having dinner with his
family, family-style, and he couldnt pass the peas. Brad Rock in
the Deseret News: Toymaker Mattel is out
$3M after unwittingly wiring funds to cyber-thieves in China.
Which is not dissimilar to the Nets paying Joe Johnson $25M for

teams drew penalties by throwing Ken Linseman on the ice.
Another one from Kaseberg: Johnny Football Manziels agent has
dumped him. Its bad, he is now officially Johnny Starbucks Barista
Manziel. Janice Hough, of leftcoastsportsbabe.com: In the NFL,

to explain that hes trying to set a good example for his son. In
fact he wants to teach his 13-year-old son that theres nothing
wrong with men cooking and to always be true to himself. Eventually
Rita gets into a confrontation with the mascot of the bake-o , The
Pills-bury Doughboy, which brings laughter as Rita pokes him with a
roll-ing pin then kisses the Doughboy passionately as she deals
with her feelings regarding the competition. When the Doughboy
takes o his mascot head, he wishes that Paul will win the contest,
which sends Rita into an even bigger emotional spiral. As the play
con-cludes Paul comforts a distraught Rita. With serious tones, but
laughable moments the performance had the audiences full
attention.13 Signs You Should Stop Being a Pirate The next
perform-ance the drama club performed was 13 Signs You should Stop
Being a Pirate by A.M. Dittman. Originally suppos-ed to be
performed on the Tuesday as well the group had technical di
culties, which had it postponed until the Wednesday. The sound
crashed 30 seconds into our opening night per-formance, Christine
Branyik-Thornton ex-plained. After a battle to resuscitate it, we
had to call the show. An actor and tech night-mare. The audience
was so gracious and understanding thank you. My team pulled up
their boot straps, dug in and rebuilt the shows,

The students took these plays to festival and did very well,
earn-ing multiple awards in-cluding the best Visual Production at
Festival for 13 Signs You should Stop Being a Pirate. Lampman drama
received Best Stage Manager which went to Darian Freeden. The Bob
Hinnett Best Tech-nical Student of Festival Runner up was earned by
KLyn Duttenho er, a Technical Excellence Medal was received by
Ashley Kerslake for the Doughboy head con-struction, and Technical
Merit Awards went to Taylor Grimes (cos-tume), Hannah Stinson
(props and backstage manager), and Hayley Dechaine (stage
man-agement and follow spot). The Souris Valley Theatre Best
Character Actor of the Festival went to Carter Branyik-Thornton,
while acting merit awards were re-ceived by Cassidy Roy, Adrianna
Raynard, and Donavon Andrews. The unsung Hero award was given to
two deserving students: Hayley De-chaine and Ashley Ker-slake.
cue by cue, setting up multiple computer sta-tions and working
til nearly midnight til it was done, better than the original. This
is real learning. The real thing. I am amazed and grateful for my
students more than I ever im-agined could be. Actors and techies
alike. The performance was then held the next night with free
admis-sion and the drama club was relieved that the issue occurred
at a time they were able to re-cover from the technical di culty as
opposed to during festival. The Wednesday night performance was
again well attended by the community, all ex-tremely pleased to
have made the journey back as many laughs were had during the
perform-ance. During the perform-ance of 13 Signs You Should Stop
Being a Pirate Jaime played by Cassidy Roy questioned why anyone
would want to be a pirate. From wondering what is so great about
the sea to the excess greed and sword ghting to the limited pets
available to the nal reason not to be a pirate, death. At each
turn, Jaimes questioning attitude was countered by the Pirate
Narrator, various pirates, and the rest of the crew. The Pirate
Narrator was portrayed by Adrianna Raynard, while vari-ous speaking
pirates included Carter Bran-yik-Thornton who was channeling
Captain Jack Sparrow of Pirates of the Caribbean, Dona-von Andrews,
Kaya Fur-ey, Alexis Christensen, and Devyn Smyth. The rest of the
pirate crew was played by Brandon
Miller, Isaiah Smith, Colton Schell, and Lon-don Vinck. Hilarity
ensued throughout the play as Jaime questioned the status quo,
introducing new ideas for a pirate ag (a unicorn with wings ying
over a rain-bow or maybe a kitty), and a discussion about whether a
fellow pirate was in love with a mer-maid or a manatee. In the end
the group decided on an origin-al ending. In the play following the
death of Jaime who comes back as a ghost, the play simply ends.
Using their creativity, Lamp-man drama decided to add a comic, yet
tragic ending to the play. As Jaimes ghost comes back to haunt the
ship, death being a clear sign you should stop being a pirate, the
pirates become uneasy and at-tempts to run Jaimes ghost through
with their swords. The pirates didnt think through the etherealness
of the ghost and in the end falling backwards, all dying, as they
clutch at sword wounds. The performance could not have been made
possible with-out those behind the scenes including
teach-er/director Christine Branyik-Thornton, stage
manager/lighting Darian Freeden, assist-ant stage manager/follow
spot Hayley Dechaine, sound de-sign/operator KLyn Duttenho er,

Jaime (Cassidy Roy) shows potential new ag drawings to a fellow
pirate (Carter Branyik-Thornton) including one of a unicorn with
wings ying over a rainbow. Her fellow pirate is unimpressed calling
it a Pegasus with a horn and suggests they come up with something
like a kraken or shark instead.

Administrative Professionals Week
Administrative Professionals Week will be cele-brated throughout
North America from April 24 to 30, 2016. Take this opportunity to
honour and thank the secretaries and administrative assistants that
you work with every day, because theyre essential to the success of
every organization.
Do you think of a secretary as the person who an-swers the
phone, notes down appointments and pre-pares coffee for her boss?
You are way off the mark. Todays secretaries perform varied and
demanding tasks ranging from customer service, project manage-ment,
the prepa- ration of documents, event planning and public relations
to various daily administrative tasks. In other words, secretaries
and administrative assistants and any other members of the
adminis-trative support staff play a key role in every office.
And it isnt just anyone who can handle being a secretary. To be
effective in getting all the work done, secretaries have to possess
more than a few quali-ties and skills. They have to be careful
listeners, and they have to be independent and resourceful. They
are excellent oral and written communicators and often work in both
official languages. They need to have lots of initiative and good
organization skills. These dy-namic and efficient workers also have
to be extremely adaptable, as they are constantly learning to work
with new IT tools. With so much talent, no wonder they are
indispensable!
So, during National Administrative Professionals Week, lets take
the time to pay tribute to these versa-tile and dedicated people
who participate so actively in the success of every organization.
They deserve it.
