Jeers to a local coffee shop for consistently running out of my favourite beverage. Remember it is a powdered product, which can be ordered in larger quantities!

Jeers to poor customer service in some Estevan stores. A smile would be nice.

Jeers to the Estevan Mercury. Not everyone can get to town at 9:30 a.m. every Wednesday to pick up a paper. Any later than that and they are all taken. Go back to the “buy your paper” routine so we from out of town can get one.

Jeers to the folks that leave their old dirty sewer hose lying beside the sewer dump rather than disposing of it.

The Canadian Diabetes Association is looking for Estevan’s clothes.

As part of the associa-tion’s Clothesline Program, a clothing drive will be held on Oct. 17 in Estevan. The drive is looking for clothes, linens and any other cloth-based items that people in the Energy City don’t want or need anymore.

The Fill A Truck events are typically held on May

long weekend across the country, and the time for Estevanites to help donate is coming soon.

Karen Cederwall, re-gional director of the Na-tional Diabetes Trust, said it’s a good way for some people to make a donation to the Diabetes Association who may not be able to afford a fi nancial contribu-tion.

Cederwall said they have accepted other items, like pots and pans and old electronics, but said this time around they are look-ing to accept only items that are of a cloth material.

“We’re hoping for it to

be just a clothing drive, and depending on how well it goes, we’ll look at expand-ing that further,” she said.

They usually take all of these items because as they see it, it’s better to donate them than to see them end up in a landfi ll.

“It’s a great alternative for people to donate, espe-cially if times are tough for some people,” said Ceder-wall. “It’s another to donate

their used and unwanted items. It diverts them from the landfi lls.”

A press release noted that they take in 46 million kilograms of goods and it reduces their donors’ carbon footprints by 115 million kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions each year.

“This is one of our first clothing drives (in Estevan),” said Cederwall. “We’re hoping that if it’s successful, we can look at doing something more permanent there, as far as having a spot for people to drop off their clothing.”

She noted that as long as people are donating something in line with their cloth-only rule, they are willing to accept clothing from any season, as well as accessories to clothing like shoes or purses.

The Clothesline Pro-gram has been active since 1985, and is country-wide. The organization has also teamed up with Value Vil-lage, who buys the donated goods from the program. All of the net proceeds from those sales go to support the Canadian Diabetes As-sociation.

“The proceeds go to help all of the diabetes initiatives, so there’ll be research, so depending on where the research grants have been issued that year, (that’s where the money will go). It’s also to raise aware-ness of the seriousness of diabetes and educating people on what they need to do to manage their disease.”

She added that some of the money goes to sup-porting summer camps for children with diabetes.

“We do have camps in Saskatchewan that those proceeds would defi nitely go to help.”

The drop-off location for the clothing drive is the Church of God, and items can be dropped off between 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.

It’s going to be a carnival fi t for a king.

The Estevan Art Gallery and Museum is holding a soiree for Andrew King next weekend, hoping to raise money that will go to the preservation and promotion of King’s work.

Amber Andersen, the EAGM’s curator, noted that it isn’t just a piece of Estevan’s history they are preserving but a piece of Canada’s.

“Things like Andrew King are extremely important not just to Estevan but to the history of Canadian printmak-ing and advertising, because he was very much a maverick in the sense that ‘I am going to do woodcarving blocks,’” said Andersen.

At the time, lithography, which used stone or metal, was the general form for ad-vertising because it could be used in newspapers, said An-dersen. King always owned newspapers and developed his poster-printing business on the side.

“He would always use what was accessible in terms of papers, and that was news-print, and anyone who is an ar-chivist can tell you newsprint is the most diffi cult thing in terms of preservation because it doesn’t age well,” she said.

King’s posters are print-ed on a mix of newsprint and cardboard.

“He wasn’t making the Sistine Chapel. He was in business, and it has turned into so much more now.”

Andersen noted the Derksen family donated more than 1,000 pieces making up the King collection.

“That’s such an exciting

collection, and we basically need a vault,” she said about how they need to store the pieces, but added that is some-thing that is far down the road.

While the gallery moves forward without a vault how-ever, Andersen added that it’s important for them to get the pieces framed in archival matting, and so they can’t be damaged. She’d also like to see some of the funding go-ing toward getting the King collection on the road.

She noted that King printed posters for the Cal-gary Stampede one year and the Brandon Winter Fair, so because of the work’s con-nection to many other places in the West, exhibiting the work in other galleries could be something they can do in the future.

“It’s great to have it in a vault, but it’s also great for it to have a life,” said Andersen. “It’s something that we want to take so much further. It would be nice to put together a show and start getting it out there so King can have a second life, so to speak.”

The other side of pres-ervation is rediscovering the stories behind the artistic pieces. There are stories behind each woodblock, so Andersen is interested in

when the blocks were made, who owned each piece after King, and how they changed hands from person to person. Herb Ashley, she noted, did the drawings and paintings and she said there’s more to explore in that relationship, which lasted 20 years.

“As with all heritage

pieces, that’s what gives it signifi cance.”

The proceeds raised from the soiree will go toward the King collection, as Andersen noted it takes precedence in their permanent collection because of the frail nature of the paper the posters are printed on.

“Paper is an amazing medium,” she added. “It’s the most fragile, but it’s the strongest material. It’s very intriguing. It does age, if you look at the oldest pieces of paper coming out of Asia. You can rip it, you can tear, but it’s also very versatile and strong.”

Now she wants their storage rooms organized and functional, maybe installing slots so one can slide the im-ages in and out. Finding best practices for storage of other items like the wood blocks is also something she wants to look into.

For the soiree on Oct. 20, Andersen said they decided to host it in the main gallery itself to gain as much awareness as possible of what they do. With the Andrew King exhibit currently dominating the main gallery room, it will be easy for everyone attending to see the collection displayed.

She noted that for the auction, because King printed multiple posters, they are able to auction off actual prints, while keeping their own origi-nals as well. The second edi-tion prints, Andersen added, were printed using King’s original blocks.

Those looking to pur-chase a ticket or a table may contact Andersen at 634-7644.

Canadian politics got a whole lot more press time after the inevitable announcement by Justin Trudeau to vie for leadership of the third-place Liberal Party.

A report on a poll said that if Trudeau were leading the Grits, the party would have a minority govern-ment in Ottawa in the next election. That’s if the election were held now when people don’t know anything about Trudeau aside from who is old man was. Apparently that’s enough for my home province to drop to their knees in support of the Libs and the Prairies to … well, just continue sup-porting the Conservatives.

The country’s opinion of PET Junior will change in the next couple of years, particularly if he wins the leadership race. Maybe he’ll wind up turning Ontario and Montreal off and turning the Prairies into Trudeau believers.

Justin Trudeau is a polarizing fig-ure in Canadian politics, whether he has done anything to ruffle anyone’s feathers yet or not. It’s a polarizing time in politics to begin with, as the House is home to a right-wing govern-ment and a left-wing opposition. There is still plenty of room in the middle, but I don’t think we really care about

the middle anymore. Everybody wants to distance them-

selves as much as possible from what they disagree with, so everybody just skips over the Liberals now. If you don’t like the Conservatives, jump on the NDP bandwagon and vice versa.

Trudeau will only really do any-thing if he is able to convince Cana-dians that the “middle” is the road to glory. Right now, he’s just a candidate for a third-place party.

In international news, Russian band Pussy Riot is a potential recipient for the EU human rights prize. Appar-ently the prize’s criteria is to be sen-tenced harshly for a ridiculous crime.

Those who recall the Pussy Riot debacle of earlier this year will re-member that they were arrested after a display of political defiance against Russian President Vladimir Putin and then charged and sentenced for some-thing called “hooliganism,” which I hope is a poor Russian translation of a

more serious and real-sounding crime. Storming into a church and mak-

ing noise is maybe trespassing, but with no harm being done to anyone, any sort of jail term is excessive. That would probably be dealt with by a little probation and a charitable donation around here.

Not every act of political activism is immune to prosecution. There are proper ways to stage a protest. It turns out their arrest and extreme sentence couldn’t have been better in drawing attention to their cause, which is the point of a protest. In that sense, maybe the two years in jail won’t seem so long for the female punk trio.

Regardless of how persecuted Pussy Riot was, this is a prize that was awarded to Nelson Mandela. I know in some years there are going to be people more worthy for the recognition than others, but it’s a pretty big step down when one year it’s going to Mandela, imprisoned for almost 30 years before becoming the first democratically elected leader in South Africa, and the next it’s going to Pussy Riot.

I’m holding out hope this weekly column gets me nominated in the next couple of years if I keep talking about Pussy Riot and ragging on conserva-tives.

Climbing into the cab of tractors that seem to be getting bigger and big-ger with each generation of a brand has become the way of farming.

Today’s farm power sources look as much like military tanks as they do farm tractors, especially those that ride over the field on tracks rather than rubber tires.

The farm behemoths are integral to farming, or are they?

Certainly farmers need a power source to pull cultivators, seeding equipment, farm grain carts and other equipment around the field. And the long-term trend in farming has been to ever larger-scale equipment.

Part of that push has come from farmers themselves, who want to cover more acres per hour in the trac-tor seat.

And that desire has become keener as it has become more and more dif-ficult to find farm workers. When an operator gets a worker on a tractor, he

wants to cover maximum acres and that means large scale.

As farm equipment has evolved, so too has the computer technology incorporated into the tractors.

Computers now monitor most op-erations, and with global positioning technology, tractors can operate with-out an operator — at least in theory. And that theory now appears about to become reality.

Autonomous Tractor Corp. (ATC) in Fargo and the Automation Research Corp. in Minneapolis have teamed to develop the Spirit Autonomous Trac-tor. The unit uses two diesel engines to power four electric motors, which

drive twin rubber tracks.But it’s not the electric motors or

rubber tracks that make the tractor so exciting. It is the fact it does not need an operator.

Farmers have found it increasingly difficult to find reliable, qualified, workers. It’s a tough combination finding someone willing to work the long hours required at peak farm times (in particular seeding and harvest), and who also has the ability to work with the increasing technology of big farm equipment.

The Spirit will alleviate that de-mand for operators.

The Spirit, which will utilize a series of on-farm towers rather than standard GPS satellites to control operations, is supposed to go into pro-duction in the spring of 2013. It will be a major step forward in technology on the farm, and is likely to herald in a dramatic shift in how we look at farm power as we move forward.

I’ve recently commit-ted to getting into shape. Or some resemblance of shape. Or just better shape than I’m in now. Ideally, I see myself achieving the Grade 11 weight I’ve slowly moved away from, but I accept that I’m 21 now and my thighs are made of Smirnoff, so that’s a bit of a lofty goal.

But I’m really trying. I’ve been a member at Gold’s Gym in Regina since January, but have really been putting in my time since school started. I’ve been religiously tracking my calorie intake (except for Thanksgiving weekend and birthday cake). There’s actually a neat little app on my phone that helps with this and I fi nd it pretty

motivating, because I now know how many minutes on the elliptical that KitKat bar is going to cost me, and I’m way too lazy for it to be worthwhile.

I’ve noticed a couple funny things, however, about the gym and the healthy-eating process.

First, gym people are weird. I like to go during the day when my class schedule allows it, and the

11 a.m. crowd is pretty en-tertaining. It’s largely adult women wearing $200 worth of Lulu Lemon walking on a treadmill with their hair done and a full face of make-up. And me, freshly rolled out of bed with no make-up and a sloppy pony tail. The women and I pres-ent a united force against the skinny, six-packed gym all-stars who come in to lift more weight with one arm than I’m pretty sure I can squat. We are the New Year’s resolution fatties who refuse to quit because we love cheesy popcorn and paralyzers. Seriously, mornings are a fun crowd.

I’ve also realized that I

tend to eat more when I’m counting calories. I’m not a terribly unhealthy eater to begin with and I like to cook my own food from scratch, like so many healthy foods require. My problem is I like to cook cheesecakes and mini muffins and I don’t understand “serving sizes.” The way I see it, if it’s delicious and sitting on my counter, it’s going to end up in my belly. Counting calories, I eat less unhealthy food. I eat more food in general though, and I fi nd myself starving at 9:30 p.m. and thinking “Hey, I still have 348 calories left to eat today ... peanut butter!” I’m pretty sure eating late at night isn’t diet friendly, but I just cannot let those poor calories go ignored.

A healthy lifestyle isn’t an easy goal for anyone. It’s really required a change in the way I think about exer-cise and food. Rather than quitting when I’m tried dur-ing my Tuesday afternoon kick class, I stick it out,

whereas old Tonaya would have given up because it was hard. And when there are grandma-baked cookies sitting on my counter ... I still eat them. Whatever. I’m working on it.

The SAT reading and writing scores have hit an all-time low in 2012, but it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s time to panic.

There are some explanations that may cover the dip more thoroughly than suggesting American students just ain’t reading as good as they used to. It’s been pointed out that more people wrote the test than ever before, many of whom are coming from homes in which they will be the fi rst person in the family to have

attended university, depending on how well they did on the test. There were also a high percentage of people taking the test for which English

is their second language. It’s unclear whether these people were doing better than their English-speaking American counterparts. If that were the case, then it would be time to hit the panic button. Everyone should stop waiting for Superman because he ain’t coming.

There is probably no reason for panic, but there may be a case made for a change to the test. It was noted that some ESL students would do better in the vocabulary section with an oral exam.

Maybe that should be an option. Of course, when they arrive on campus, they’ll be expected to write essays rather

than submitting them verbally via mp3 fi le. Perhaps the verbal test would simply be setting students up for failure later on.

In general, standardized tests have often come under fi re for not being a good measure of a student’s knowledge. The SAT may be relied upon heavily for schools in the United States, but institutions in other countries get by accepting students without the use of an all-encompassing test.

General post-secondary programs accept students based purely on grades, while specialized ones may have other requirements of the applicant, like submitting a portfolio or writing an essay. There may be better ways of measuring a student’s worth outside of the SAT. — Jordan Baker

With SAT vocabulary scores hitting an all-time low, is the test now obsolete?

I’m having a tough time with this one, and I think it’s because I’m biased. I like the SAT as it currently exists, because I liked it when I wrote it four years ago.

To break it up, the SAT is three parts, two of which focus on English and the third dedicated to math. I’m sure it’s pretty obvious which of the categories I excelled in, and which dragged my grade down.

My favourite section dealt with vocabulary. I read a lot, which has led me to picking up a few words throughout my life. Vocabulary is easy. You read a word, learn what it means, learn how to use it in context and then use it appropriately. There’s no formula to memorize. There’s no number-letter combination that makes no sense. English words to an English-speaking person make the most sense to me, and so I did well in the vocabulary section. Way better than I did in the math section, which I’m sure I barely passed (I’m sure this doesn’t surprise any of my high school math teachers).

I’d hate to see the SAT change because this year’s exams had the lowest ever vocabu-lary scores. I just fi nd that disappointing, and an incentive to keep vocab as a component. I acknowledge that the test was taken by a record number of students for whom English is a second language, but I don’t really consider that an excuse. The SAT is a test to get into an English speaking school in an English speak-ing country. There’s nothing dated or unreasonable about expecting all students to have a fi rm grasp of the language before being ac-cepted into university.

As well, there are there English-skilled students like me who need the Eng-lish scores to balance out the dismal math scores. Taking away the vocabulary would be punishment as far as I’m concerned. — Tonaya Marr

If that was a Grey Cup preview, sign the Saskatch-ewan Roughriders up.

On Thanksg iv ing Monday afternoon, the Roughriders blasted the Toronto Argonauts 36-10 at Rogers Centre for their third-straight victory and a share of second-place in the CFL West with an 8-6 record.

Things went the Rid-ers’ way right from the opening kickoff when Brandon West returned it 84 yards. The Riders got a fi eld goal on the drive and never trailed the rest of the way.

CFL observers may scoff at the notion of the game being a Grey Cup preview, but it’s a distinct possibility. The 100th Grey Cup game will be played Nov. 25 at Rogers Centre and both the Riders and Argos are right in the thick of it. Rider coach Corey Chamblin was the fi rst to point out that Monday’s encounter might be a sneak

peek of the CFL’s champi-onship match.

“It was a total team ef-fort,” Chamblin said. “We said we’d approach it like a championship game. With the last two wins over Cal-gary, B.C., and now here, it was a championship-type game and we played like it was and fi nished.”

Did they ever. The Riders never turned the ball over and tailback Kory Sheets shattered the 1000-yard mark for the season on a 48-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. Right around that time, pivot Darian Durant launched a 78-yard touchdown bomb to Weston Dressler. They were rockin’ and rollin’.

Of course these two teams will meet again be-fore the season is over, in Regina, and Toronto will be a much different team by then. They were missing their top quarterback and top rusher on Monday so Chamblin wasn’t getting too cocky.

“There’s still room for improvement,” Chamblin noted. “Jarious (Jackson) is a good quarterback but that isn’t the real Toronto offence. The next time we face them, they’ll have Ricky Ray and Chad Kackert.”

With four games left, the Riders are looking ahead rather than behind, however, it’s prudent to point out the missed op-portunities that would have vastly improved their standing. Had they not had two blown games against Calgary and a gaffe in Montreal in Week 12, the Riders would have been sitting pretty at this point. They are tied with Calgary

but have lost the season series that has put them behind the eight ball in terms of hosting a playoff game.

Those snafus could add up to a collective million-dollar mistake since fi nishing fi rst or sec-ond and hosting a playoff game means seven fi gures into the bank account. Regardless, a playoff berth would represent a massive accomplishment by fi rst-year coach Chamblin who took over a demoralized 5-13 team.

And, let’s not forget, second-place is still there

for the taking. The way the Riders are playing now, anything is a possibility.

With a win this Satur-day in Edmonton against the 6-8 Eskimos, the Rid-ers can truly start making playoff plans. Maybe they could even start dream-ing about another trip to Toronto.

Moving the Oilers out of Edmonton would be like moving the Vatican to Des Moines, or Ann of Green Gables’ house to Roblin, Manitoba.

It’s just not natural. Weren’t the Oilers respon-sible for the Alberta capital being called The City of Champions? Didn’t they build a statue of Wayne Gretzky outside the House That Wayne Built?

Now Oilers’ owner Daryl Katz says he might move the Oilers to Seattle if

he doesn’t get a more favour-able arena deal with the City of Edmonton.

Hockey blasphemy! Next thing you know, they’ll be saying the Rocket’s an Anglophone.

Plans have been in place for a couple of years for a new arena in downtown Edmonton but Katz, the man behind the Rexall Drugs empire, thinks civic and provincial politicians should throw a little more loot into the project before the fi nal agreements are signed. When

that suggestion got less than a lukewarm response from Edmonton Mayor Stephen Mandel and Alberta Premier Alison Redford, Katz conve-niently showed up in Seattle with a few business partners (and Wayne Gretzky) on the very day that Seattle city council approved construc-tion of a $480-million sports complex.

And you thought that Coffey-Messier-Gretzky-Kurri-Anderson was a power play!

An NHL team in Seattle would have a big battle for media attention, competing with the Seahawks, Mari-ners, an NBA team (TBA), soccer’s Sounders and the Washington Huskies of the NCAA. But if Katz got part of the arena’s ownership too, he might not care that the Oilers (or whatever their name might become) didn’t sell out every game.

The Oilers have been NHL doormats for the past

few seasons, but with a young nucleus of Jordan Eberle, Taylor Hall, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and 2012 top pick Nail Yakupov, most NHL observers feel they’re on the verge of something great.

If Katz were to pick up his hockey team and head for Washington, he might make a lot of money off hockey in his new United States home, but it’s doubtful Katz’s drugs stores would ever sell another bottle of Tylenol or a greeting card in Northern Alberta.

So here’s my guess: Katz would hire Lindsay Lohan to coach the Oilers before he’d move his team out of Edmonton. It’s nothing more than lockout theatrics.

• R.J. Currie: “Chicago Cubs president Theo Epstein said rebuilding the team ‘won’t happen overnight.’ Which is pretty much what owner Charles Murphy said in 1909.”

• Currie again: “Does Caroline Wozniacki give

Rory McIlroy backhanded compliments?”

• Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle, on Twitter: (@scottostler): “Has there ever been a great golfer named Mulligan? Gerry Mulligan was great sax player, but never started a song over.”

• Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Cardinals quarterback Kevin Kolb’s wife gave birth to their third child last week, an eight-pound, 11-ounce boy. To no one’s surprise, replacement offi cials initially ruled it a girl.”

• Ostler, in his San Fran-cisco Chronicle column, on Tim Tebow: “One more ugly loss and (Rex) Ryan might be forced to put in Tebow at quarterback. He’ll take the Jets on a playoff run, then be traded to another team that has no idea what to do with him.”

• Ostler again: “So glad I found that magic lantern and rubbed it! My duck hook is cured, Buster Posey is about to win the batting title, and the real NFL refs are back!”

• Comedy writer Jim Barach: “The New York Knicks are on the verge of becoming the oldest team in NBA history. It’s easy to spot them. They are the ones who

wear their shorts up around their armpits.”

• Another one from R.J. Currie: “Last week’s top sto-ries are tackling by the hair in the CFL and the ongoing NHL lockout. Or, dreadlocks and deadlocks.”

• DJ Gallo, ESPN.com: “The 49ers have a great defence, a quotable, high-energy coach and a two-quar-terback system that works. If you go to the dollar store and ask for the San Francisco 49ers, they will give you the New York Jets.”

• Janice Hough of Left-CoastSportsBabe.com, after Texas blew a 13-game lead and lost the AL West on the fi nal day of the season: “The Rangers have just been declared the offi cial baseball team of the U.S. Ryder Cup squad.”

• Headline at Sport-sPickle.com: “Crazy old man on street corner claims to have seen a winning Pirates season.”

• CBS baseball analyst Jon Heyman, via Twitter, with a rival team executive’s take on the Dodgers: “They are a fortune 500 team. They spent a fortune to play .500.”
