My name is Oliver. I am a young (under one year old), domesticated, short-haired kitten. I was found at Spectra Place. I’m a very loving little guy.
My name is Lucky. I struggled to survive our long winter. I lost my left ear, and the tip of my right. I’m doing very well now that I am warm and clean and getting two meals a day. I love attention and I’m very playful!
Hi! My name is Sophie. I am one of the five puppies brought in from north of Alameda where we were left in a quilt on an approach to fend for ourselves. We are so lucky to be here.I am a female Shih Tzu, probably 3-4 years old. I have been a mother several times. I’m a very loving dog with a great personality! I love going for walks!

Jeers to people who think twinning Highway 39 will somehow prevent
accidents. If people would take responsibility for their actions by
slowing down and driving the speed limit and would stop drinking and driving, then we would not have
so many senseless deaths on our highways. Don’t blame a road for
someone’s stupid decision to disobey the law.
Jeers to the people who decide to deface the countryside with your
garbage. Why do you drive north of the hospital, outside of city limits, to dump
your fi lth on the roadside? You are a disgrace and a cheapo. Take it to the
dump where it belongs.
Jeers to a local building centre and their poor customer service. Whatever
happened to “how can I help you?” So much for shopping locally ... what couldn’t be delivered in a reasonable
amount of time takes three weeks when business is done elsewhere.
Cheers to all the folks who supported the recent Estevan Girl Guides cookie
fundraiser.
Cheers to the people who stopped to aid a dog that was struck by a vehicle Monday afternoon at the intersection
of King and Kensington, especially the two young men that returned the dog to
its owner.
Cheers to the individuals who on the weekend spent their time picking up litter along Highway 47 North. These
people have pride and deserve a pat on the back.
Cheers to Mötley Crüe for playing in Estevan this weekend. The devil is
going to be shouted at.
Cheers to the free use of the walking track at Spectra Place. It’s a great
facility.

There is more than one Sacred Heart/Sacré Coeur senior student taking off to Africa, and this one is going alone.
Cassidy Clow is travelling to Ghana for three weeks this summer. She is going with no one she knows, leaving family and friends behind in Estevan, and the biggest thing she is worried about is that she has never fl own before.
“I’m most nervous about the fl ight,” Cassidy said through a smile while sitting for an interview in her school’s library last week.
She won’t be completely alone on her fl ight to Toronto, where she will be meeting the rest of the group who will be going to Ghana. There will be one other Saskatchewan student on the trip, a Swift Current girl also named Cas-sidy, so they will be meeting at the Regina Airport to fl y to Toronto together, where they may have to spend the night before meeting up with the rest of the group.
It was at the Me to We conference in Saskatoon when Cassidy was handed a ballot, which she fi lled out clarify-ing she would be happy and willing to travel to Ghana to build a school.
A few weeks later, she received a call on her cellphone in the middle of class. She announced to her teacher,
Nancy Bourbonnais, she was getting a call from Ontario, thinking that was a bit strange. Bourbonnais encouraged her to answer, and that’s when she was asked if she really wanted to go to Ghana.
Cassidy will be gone from July 25 to Aug. 14. Before that, she will have to get her shots, like everybody when they travel. If she is most worried about the fl ight, the second thing that concerns her the most is the shots, which she’ll receive on May 3 in Regina.
Bourbonnais is happy Cassidy will have this oppor-tunity, noting she will show off the best the community can offer.
“She’s a great student representative to be going. She’s a good role model,” she said of her student.
The Grade 8 class is collecting donations for Cassidy and Tionna Nashiem, another French immersion student in the same class, who is going on a similar trip with her mother to Kenya. Cassidy has raised more than $5,000 so far.
Cassidy will help to build a school while she is there, and she thinks her group will be start building a new school, which will then be completed by subsequent groups through Free the Children.
When she isn’t working on the school, she said they will have time to play with the village’s children and do a little bit of sightseeing. The group will be led by a pair of people from the Free the Children organization. Cassidy said they will be learning about child slave labour the area has seen, but they will also be able to go on some nature hikes and receive lessons in jewelry making.
Anyone wishing to donate to Cassidy’s campaign may call the school at 306-634-4249.

Some stories are too good not to share, and this one will defi nitely (hopefully) make you feel good about people.
Cameron Lyle is a senior student and track and fi eld athlete at the University of New Hampshire. Two years ago he joined the bone marrow registry. It sounds more noble than it really is. Someone fl icks a cotton swab around your mouth to collect saliva and you’re on the registry with your gleaming Good Samaritan badge.
It takes a little more work to actually donate bone marrow when a fellow person is truly in need.
He was recently contacted because he was a 100 per cent match for a 28-year-old man with leukemia, who had been given a death sentence in six months.
Lyle had his last track meet coming up. He’s a senior shot put, hammer and discus thrower and would be appearing at the America East Championships. It’s these kinds of competitions that student athletes live and train for, for so long. Lyle spent much of his life training specifi cally for this kind of meet, which may have been the biggest of his life. He doesn’t really have any more chances at it. Once he graduates, he has to go to work and likely won’t have the kind of time he previously had to devote to his throwing career.
Just as I hope anyone would do, and
certainly hope I would do, Lyle gave that up to donate two litres of bone marrow to a dying man.
The surgery required for Lyle meant that he wouldn’t have the strength to con-tinue training or compete, ending not just his season but his college career.
A friend of mine with leukemia died when we were 18. He may not have ben-efi ted from a bone marrow transplant. I don’t know all the details surrounding his illness, but I’ve seen the results when nothing can be done or nothing gets done.
Lyle isn’t the only person who is donating marrow, blood or kidneys, and everyone who gives something like that to another should be considered a hero. Lyle received more press than others, but not everybody can get international attention for acts of selfl essness. That’s not why they do it, but they still deserve it.
If you know anybody who has made a donation like Lyle, thank them for me because what they have done or are going
to do is putting a smile on my face. Their act will mean more to the recipient, but these stories of people helping people make everyone else feel that not only is the glass half full, but it’s also spilling over.
The other big story from the week was Jason Collins’ coming out party. As a centre in the NBA, he is fi rst openly gay athlete in a major sport on this continent.
Collins’ announcement is an important one for athletes gay and straight in every sport in North America. It’s about time we all got this one out of the way so we don’t have to do it anymore.
I don’t like that he had to do it, but Collins coming out is a step that needed to be taken that will hopefully lead down a yellow brick road of acceptance rather than a gravelly path toward more paranoia and fear.
I wish Collins’ announcement were the end rather than the beginning of what still needs to happen in not just the sports com-munity but many corners of our culture. I wish that this announcement meant that everybody will just put the issue to bed, so no more athletes need to be written about in Sports Illustrated in order to explain themselves.
I’ll consider it a victory when we no longer force people into the metaphorical closet for much of their lives.
There are some truly selfl ess acts
Without a lot of fanfare, federal Agri-culture Minister Gerry Ritz and Saskatch-ewan Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart announced the launch of the Growing Forward 2 agricultural policy framework in Saskatchewan.
The framework is about investing dol-lars in the province that are supposed to be supportive of agriculture over the next half decade.
The federal and provincial govern-ments will invest $388 million in Sas-katchewan for strategic initiatives over fi ve years, an increase of more than $25 million per year over the previous Grow-ing Forward framework, according to a government news release.
A $25 million hike seems signifi cant until you factor in infl ation over the fi ve-year term, and suddenly the growth is little more than keeping pace with past investment.
The dollars are being targeted at programs that offer fl exibility to meet the needs of Saskatchewan farmers and agribusinesses.
The release noted the actual invest-ment is going to programming that was identifi ed after extensive consultation with producers.
So, the programming has been devel-oped to provide:
• $170 million over fi ve years in agri-culture innovation, research and technol-ogy transfer;
• $65 million over fi ve years in rural water infrastructure;
• $60 million over fi ve years in en-vironment, food safety, plant and animal health;
• $32 million over fi ve years for value-added business development as well as trade and market development;
• $25 million over fi ve years in farm business management; and
• $4 million over fi ve years to sup-port the industry in agriculture awareness initiatives.
Split over six areas, and then spread over fi ve years, the impact of the dollars may be less than government is suggest-ing.
Certainly though, the dollars spent can be very positive in some areas.
When you look at rural water infra-structure, a dollar invested - whether in irrigation, dams, or bridges - will have long lasting effects locally.
But when you take $32 million and spread it over a half decade, its real impact on value-added business development may be much harder to measure into the future.
Of course, both levels of government speak glowingly of the investment.
“Our government remains focused on creating jobs, growth and long-term prosperity for Saskatchewan’s agricultural industry,” said Ritz in the government release. “Growing Forward 2 provides flexible, innovative programming for Saskatchewan’s hard-working farmers to ensure they have the tools they need to remain competitive and expand into new markets.”
“Agriculture is one of the main eco-nomic drivers in Saskatchewan and this new fi ve-year agreement will help our farmers, ranchers, agribusinesses and exporters to grow the industry,” Stewart said in the same release.
“We consulted extensively with pro-ducers and the industry on the develop-ment of these programs, which will help ensure our products continue to feed a growing world population and contribute to a better quality of life for all Saskatch-ewan citizens.”
While the programming may be less than needed, it is a positive that agriculture at least remains on the radar in Ottawa.
While the agricultural vote is of little impact federally these days, it is vital the federal government continues to invest in such an important primary sector, and the recent announcement is good to see, as it draws tax dollars into the sector from federal coffers.

NationalOTTAWA - A growing number of Conservative MPs say
they won’t mail their constituents the party’s latest attack on Justin Trudeau, saying the negative, taxpayer-funded pamphlet is just not their style.
Tories received a sample of the fl yer about the Liberal leader last week, designed by the party’s parliamentary research group. It matches recent television spots about Trudeau that say he lacks the experience and judgment to govern.
Unlike the TV ads, the mailout (called a “ten-percenter”) is funded by the taxpayer through House of Commons budgets. Several Conservatives from across the country said Tuesday they won’t use it.
“I haven’t sent out an attack ten-percenter for over four years,” said Edmonton Tory MP Laurie Hawn. “It’s just not my style.”
“I don’t feel it’s appropriate for me to do it,” said Joe Daniel, a Toronto Conservative MP.
Some MPs told The Canadian Press they’ve been hear-ing complaints from constituents on the issue.
Ontario MP Larry Miller said a voter told him he didn’t like it when former Liberal prime minister Paul Martin attacked Stephen Harper, and doesn’t like what the Conservatives are doing now.
***
OTTAWA - The federal auditor general says the country’s search-and-rescue system is in distress and some elements are near the breaking point.
Michael Ferguson’s latest report issued Tuesday singled out the Royal Canadian Air Force, saying a continuing short-age of pilots and trained crew puts the system in jeopardy.
He also said the country doesn’t have enough — or the right type — of aircraft to respond to emergencies across the vast, open spaces of land and sea.
The Harper government has repeatedly promised to deliver new aircraft to replace the air force’s aging fl eet of C-115 Buffaloes and older model C-130 Hercules, the workhorses of rescue missions.
Defence Minister Peter MacKay has often referred to the procurement as a “top priority.”
But the program, started under the Liberals in 2002, is not expected to deliver a new plane until 2017.
InternationalKIEV, Ukraine - Ukraine’s jailing of former Prime
Minister Yulia Tymoshenko was a politically motivated violation of her rights, Europe’s human rights court ruled on Tuesday, dealing a harsh blow to President Viktor Yanukovych who has insisted that the case against his top opponent was not political.
The prosecution of Tymoshenko, the country’s most vocal opposition leader, has strained the former Soviet state’s ties with the European Union and the United States. Tuesday’s ruling put fresh pressure of Yanukovych to ensure Tymoshenko’s release if he wants to sign a key co-operation agreement with Brussels later this year.
There was no immediate comment from the govern-
ment, other than a promise to closely analyze the ruling.Tymoshenko, a heroine of Ukraine’s 2004 pro-democ-
racy Orange Revolution who was instantly recognizable her blond braid wrapped around her head like a crown, was sentenced to seven years in prison in October 2011 after being convicted of exceeding her powers as premier while negotiating a gas contract with Russia.
The West has condemned Tymoshenko’s jailing and other legal cases against her as politically motivated and insisted on her release.
***LAS VEGAS, Nev. - Poker devotees can now skip the
smoky casino and legally gamble their dollars away on the couch — at least in the state of Nevada.
A Las Vegas-based casino subsidiary launched the fi rst fully legal poker website in the United States on Tuesday morning.
The site, run by Ultimate Gaming, is only accepting wagers from players in Nevada for now, but likely represents the next chapter in gambling nationwide.
Internet poker, never fully legal, has been strictly out-lawed since 2011, when the Department of Justice seized the domain names of the largest offshore sites catering to U.S. customers and blacked them out.
This crackdown, dubbed “black Friday,” left poker fanatics with two options: They could either get dressed and visit a card room, or break the law and log into an offshore site.
More recently, the federal government softened its stance on Internet betting, and three states — New Jersey, Delaware and Nevada— have legalized some form of online wagering within their borders.

NationalLONDON, Ont. -
Montreal Canadiens pros-pect Nathan Beaulieu and his father, Ontario Hockey League coach Jacques Beaulieu, are facing assault charges.
Strathroy-Caradoc po-lice say the father and son have each been charged with two counts of assault.
Police say the charges stem from an altercation Saturday at a house party that followed a charity golf tournament.
Two people suffered minor injuries, police say.
A June 11 court date has been set.
Nathan Beaulieu was selected 17th overall by the Canadiens in the 2011 NHL draft.
The 20-year-old de-fenceman had seven goals and 24 assists with the AHL’s Hamilton Bulldogs this season. He also ap-peared in six games with the Canadiens, registering two assists.
The Canadiens had
recently called up Beaulieu for their playoff run, which started at home against Ot-tawa on Thursday
***BROSSARD, Que. -
Josh Gorges says the Mon-treal Canadiens’ playoff rookies should be prepared for a wall of noise when they step onto the ice for their fi rst NHL post-season game at the Bell Centre.
Five Canadiens, in-cluding rookies Alex Gal-chenyuk, Brendan Galla-gher and Jarred Tinordi as well as older fi rst-timers Max Pacioretty and Ra-phael Diaz, will see their first post-season action when the Canadiens open a best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarter-final on Thursday night against the Ottawa Senators.
They will step into an atmosphere that Gorges says is unique in the 30-team league.
“I mean, there’s no comparison anywhere in hockey to playing a playoff game here in Montreal,” the
veteran defenceman said Tuesday.
The Bell Centre rocks in the regular season, but everything is amplifi ed in the post-season when hopes for a 25th Stanley Cup are rekindled, even if their last one came 20 years ago.
“I was saying to (Gal-lagher) the other day driv-ing home that it’s different here,” Gorges said. “You’ve seen how fun it can be to play here, but wait until you get into the playoffs.”
InternationalMADRID - The doctor
at the heart of cycling’s Op-eration Puerto doping scan-dal has been convicted, but the key evidence that could implicate more athletes are set to be destroyed — pre-venting sport agencies from trying to uncover who else may have been cheating.
Spanish doctor Eu-femiano Fuentes was found guilty Tuesday of endan-gering public health and given a one-year suspended jail sentence in the Opera-
tion Puerto case. Fuentes was also barred from medi-cal practice in sports for four years and ordered to pay a fi ne 4,650 euros (US$6,000).
But in a decision that drew criticism from some anti-doping offi cials, Judge Julia Santamaria also said that the more than 100 blood bags that were seized seven years ago when po-lice raided Fuentes’ Madrid clinics should be destroyed. That would rule out any possible investigations by the World Anti-Doping Agency and Spain’s na-tional anti-doping body, who have said they want to examine the bags to identify all the athletes involved. Santamaria said Spain’s privacy laws prevented the bags from being made available.
Several prominent cy-clists have been identifi ed in the scandal, but Fuentes testifi ed that he also treated athletes from other sports — without giving their names.

• It was Founding Father Thomas Jefferson who made the following sage observa-tion: “The tax which will be paid for education is not more than the thousandth part of what will be paid to kings, priests and nobles who will rise up among us if we leave the people to ignorance.”
• Half of all the world’s fl ower species can be found in South America.
• If you’re worried about catching a cold from another person, you should be more worried about handshakes than sneezes.
• The Hula Hoop was introduced in the United States in early 1958, and the craze rapidly became one of the biggest in history up to that time. Shortly thereafter, the British Medical Journal blamed an uptick in back, neck and abdominal injuries on the fad.
• Though there are an estimated 600,000 words in the English language, only
1,500 to 2,000 words make up 99 percent of all speech in America.
• In some parts of Asia, it is the custom to put salt in one’s tea.
• If you’re of a certain age, you might remember that in 1968, Tommy James and the Shondells had a No. 3 hit with the song “Mony, Mony.” You might be sur-prised to learn, though, that the inspiration for the song came from the business world. On Broadway in New York City, atop the 40-story building that housed the Mutual of New York Insurance Company, also known as M.O.N.Y., Tommy James often saw a huge neon sign fl ashing the short form of the company’s name. He evidently liked the way it sounded.
• Those who study such things say that explorer Chris-topher Columbus had blond hair.

It takes someone with the desire to do something important for the com-munity, someone with courage and dedication who isn’t afraid of hard
work, and is willing to accept the challenge of a diffi cult job.If you are this kind of person, you are needed as a paid on-call fi refi ghter.
We may be able to fi t you with a pair of boots.
