Laboratory hours tochange at Bengough& Pangman HealthCentres in February

Sun Country Health Region (SCHR) has announcedchanges to laboratory and x-ray hours at the Bengough andPangman Health Centres.

Effective Wednesday, February 4, 2015, these two depart-ments will have revised hours of operation.

The new hours for the lab and x-ray department atBengough Health Centre will be Monday from 8:00 a.m. to3:30 p.m.; Tuesday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and Fridayfrom 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Services at Pangman Health Centre will resume after be-ing unavailable for some time. As of February 4, the lab willbe open every Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.

These changes were made to align staffing to workloaddemands in these two centres, as well as in Radville MarianHealth Centre where the workload has increased over thepast year. To provide the services effectively in all the com-munities, the technologist from Bengough will work inRadville in Wednesdays.

Sun Country Health Region CEO Marga Cugnet saysthese changes should address access to laboratory services inall three communities. "The changes will help ensure that asafe, efficient and high quality lab/x-ray service is availablefor all residents in all three communities."

Delay of MMRP disappointingI was disappointed to learn

of the delay of the Multi-Ma-terial Recycling Program(MMRP) launch set to beginon January 1, 2015. This long-awaited program is a criticallyimportant environmental ac-complishment created throughcooperation between provin-cial and municipal govern-ments, and industry. To delayit risks losing it.

The goal of the MMRP issimple. This new province-wide

recycling program will strengthenresidential recycling and reducethe amount of waste - either byrecycling or reduction - cloggingSaskatchewan landfills.

We are all familiar withbringing home a recently pur-chased item wrapped in a largeamount of cardboard and plas-tic and seeing flyers overfillingmailboxes. Much or all of thiswaste ends up in landfills ascommunities struggle to findmoney for recycling programs,

juggling it against other munici-pal services and operations.Saskatchewan is littered witha patchwork of programs andgrowing, spreading landfills.

Everyone involved realizedthis was not good enough. Theprovince, municipalities, andindustry all came to the tableto find a way forward. Finally,after many years of hard work,recycling regulations were en-acted in 2013 and an MMRPplan was approved.

Under the MMRP, busi-nesses take ownership of thewaste packaging and paperthey bring into our communi-ties by being financially respon-sible for their waste. If they cutdown their waste, their respon-sibility decreases. Communitiescan apply to receive this fund-ing for running an efficient andeffective residential recyclingprogram. Residential recyclingcatches more recyclable mate-rial and helps us achieve ourgoal of cutting the flow of wasteinto our landfills by 40 per cent.

Saskatchewan communitiesrecognized this benefit imme-diately; 314 urban and ruralmunicipalities representing 68per cent of Saskatchewan'spopulation signed up to takepart. They know the financial,health, and environmentalcosts of landfills too well.

Delaying the MMRP putsit at risk. If the delay is too long,municipalities will have to de-cide whether to increase taxesand fees to start or continuerunning their programs or beforced to simply abandon them.We need an MMRP. We needto finish what we started - be-fore it's too late.

Weyburn Police deal with impaired drivers and fraudOn January 24, the

Weyburn Police Service re-ceived a report that a vehiclehad been involved in a colli-sion and the driver had leftthe scene. An investigationrevealed that a 23 year-oldmale had been driving whenhe lost control of the vehicleleaving the roadway anddamaging a light standard.The driver has been issuedtwo traffic tickets. Alcoholwas a contributing factor.

Also on January 24, TheWeyburn PS were contactedby a complainant regardinga rental scam. Investigationhas shown that an on-line adwas posted offering a localresidence as a rental prop-erty. The person posting thead had no connection to theproperty and had no au-thority to offer it for rent.The ad was removed but was

shortly reinstated by theoriginal person havingposted it. This type of situa-tion is virtually impossible tocontrol. To use an old ad-age - the best defense is agood offence. If you are look-ing at any type of on-linepurchase you must exercisedue-diligence.

On January 23, theWeyburn PS responded toa report that a male personunder conditions to notcontact his estranged wifewas violating those condi-tions at a local business.Upon attending and speak-ing to the victim, it was de-termined that no offencehad taken place.

Also on January 23, atabout 6:30 p.m., theWeyburn PS received a re-port from a citizen that theyhad a suspected impaired

driver detained at a down-town business. Upon policearrival, the citizen providedinformation enabling thepolice to initiate an investi-gation for impaired driving.A 53 year-old male was takenin to custody at the sceneand is facing charges of im-paired driving and refusinga breath test. The accused iscurrently before the courtsfacing an earlier impaireddriving matter. While theWeyburn PS are grateful forthe assistance from the citi-zen in identifying and hold-ing the accused we urge ex-treme caution in taking di-rect involvement in thesetypes or any offences.

On January 22, theWeyburn PS were called re-garding a 14 year-old femalebeing in emotional distress.After investigation, it was

learned that the initial re-port had been exaggeratedto some degree. Police wereable to successfully mediatethe matter.

Also on January 22, theWeyburn PS were contactedregarding a credit cardfraud. The victim had notedsome suspect charges ontheir company credit card.The victim contacted thecredit card company who re-versed the charges. The mat-ter is under investigation.

Further on January 22,the Weyburn PS received areport that a 78 year-oldmale person had been kid-napped. A significant initialinvestigation into the where-abouts of the victim led themto a local health care facilitywhere the victim was located.At this time, the matter wasdetermined to not require

further police involvement.On January 20, the

Weyburn PS received a callfrom a local pub requestingassistance with unruly pa-trons. Investigation revealedthat after some rude com-ments were made towardsone of the patrons, tempersflared and an altercationensued ending prior to po-lice arrival. A 25 year-old

male and a 28 year-old malewere escorted from the pre-mises by police without fur-ther incident.

On January 19, theWeyburn PS were called toa business regarding a re-quest to remove an un-wanted customer. Prior toarrival the 64 year old malecustomer had left on theirown.

Enhanced dental service for Health RegionSun Country Health Re-

gion (SCHR) has purchaseda new digital dental x-ray unitfor the operating room atWeyburn General Hospital.

The unit will make it pos-sible for dentists to take den-tal x-rays on patients whorequire dental surgery whileunder anesthetic. The digi-tal unit sends the x-ray im-ages instantly to a computer

screen where the dentist canview the images and deter-mine if further dental workis required or whether thesurgery is complete.

While the unit will be usedmainly for children, it can beused for adult patients as well.

SCHR CEO MargaCugnet says this added ser-vice will provide a higher levelof care to the patients requir-

ing dental surgery in the Re-gion and help to eliminatethe need for repeat surgery.

Weyburn dentist ChadFletcher says the new x-rayequipment is especially usefulfor surgery on children. Thereare several benefits, he says.

"Sometimes it's difficult toget x-rays of younger chil-dren in an office setting.When they are anaesthetized

in an operating room, it'seasier. And the x-ray resultcomes up immediately onthe screen. We see a lot ofdecay that we otherwisemight not see."

"Another benefit is thatthe radiation dosage is farless for the patient this way,about one-tenth of what atraditional x-ray provides,"he says.

Walk as children of lightBy Linda Wegner

As a teen I recall my favourite high school subject was English. Science vied for secondplace. (When it came to last place, Math and Physical Education were evenly tied. Noquestions asked, today or back then.)

As strange or trivial as it may seem, one particular science lesson still stands out in mymind. The topic of discussion was the relationship of light and darkness. True to my firstlove of English and its relative, Writing, I was intrigued by the interaction of those twoqualities and I'd already decided I'd compose a poem or at least write a paragraph aboutsuch a simple yet, possibly, profound topic. It took only a matter of minutes to discoverthat though the definition of these two qualities appeared to be simple, their interactionwas incredibly complex.

I still have not forgotten either the anticipation or the letdown I felt when my teacherdefined darkness. "The absence of light," he said. "Darkness is the absence of light." Surelyit had to be harder than that!

Now the definition of light took on new meaning. Light illuminates. Light reveals. Lightdispels darkness. There wouldn't even be colour if light didn't exist.

In this second of three exhortations regarding the Christian's walk, the Apostle Paulinstructs, "Walk as children of light."

What makes the topic so meaningful is the scope of things light reveals: hidden things,secret things, good things and bad things. Over the years, however, my understanding ofthe power of light to dispel its antithesis has deepened.

How wonderful to know that because of Christ's redemptive work, His light reveals

By Andrea CorriganI recently read an article in People magazine that en-

couraged some of our favorite stars to reveal what lifelessons they wish they'd known when they were just start-ing out. What advice would they give their younger self.

As I read through them, one in particular caught myeye. It was from the U.S. First Lady, Michelle Obama.She said, "If I could give my younger self just one pieceof advice, it would be this. Stop being so afraid! That'swhat really strikes me when I look back - the sheeramount of time I spent tangled up in fears and doubtsthat were entirely of my own creation. I was afraid of

Christian Unity:See, How They Love Each Other!

How blessed we have been for the majority of January with above seasonal weather for along stretch! Okay! We could have done without the ice, I grant you that. One thing aboutthe ice, it keeps one on their toes, less another part of the anatomy collides with it - I know ofwhat I speak from experience. Ouch!

This past Sunday afternoon we observed the conclusion of the Week of Prayer for Chris-tian Unity (which runs generally from January 18 - 25 every year) here with an ecumenicalservice with a number of churches and their ministers or representatives involved with some80 people present. The appointed theme was based on Jesus' conversation with the Samari-tan woman at the well with His statement to her: "Give me a drink." Don't we all thirst andlong for the life-giving waters of Christ's presence and life to strengthen us for the challengesand the opportunities for service to others, whether in our families, our community, and inthe world at large? If only, we were filled with the life of Christ, then we could provide moreoutreach to those in need, and to do so in the spirit of enthusiasm and joy. How much theHoly Spirit desires to spill over the abundant generosity of His gifts into our lives, so that theymight have a ripple effect into our society.

From their reading of the spirit of cooperation and sharing with each other in the earlyChristian church described in the Acts of the Apostles, many people might have assumedthat the above reference about how they love each other must have originated somewhere inthe Acts of the Apostles. While there are many examples of the spirit of unity and charitythat prevail in the early Church, this reference comes from one of the early writers in theChurch by the name of Tertullian (160 - 220 A.D.) from Carthage in North Africa.

At the crossroads of our present times, we should strive to recapture the elements fromwhich this statement was made about the early Christians, both within our individual churches,but also among various churches. There is much good will and cooperation to celebrate andto give thanks to God, but also to pray constantly that such might grow and strengthenalong the way. We all need to become much more engaged disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ,following His example and teachings in the whole of our lives. Might the love that inspiredChrist to lay down His life for the redemption of the world be the model of our own love.

more than we can imagine. Where we see condemnation and accusation,

Time is precious

not knowing the answer in class and looking stupid, or worried about what some boythought of me, or wondering whether the other girls liked my clothes or my hair, or angstingabout some offhand comment someone made to me in the lunchroom. I would love to goback in time and tell my younger self, 'Michelle, these middle and high school years are just atiny blip in your life."

She went on to say, "Walk away from 'friendships' that make you feel small and insecure."Now, that's some great advice. It made me further investigate if this attitude or sense of strength

in life was an age thing or an intellect thing. Since the First Lady is a lawyer and writer, (andI'm neither), I figure it has to be an age thing as we're 'approximately' in the same age bracket.

When I was in my late twenties, thirties and forties, my time was taken up with raising mychildren. I went about my day-to-day activities ensuring that my children would grow up tobe functioning adults. After all, that's our job as parents, right? It was not until I was throwninto the situation of losing both my parents within a short time, that I really stepped backand "smelled the roses" as the saying goes.

Unlike Mrs. Obama, my advice to my younger self would not be to "stop being so afraid."Without a doubt, my advice would be to live every day to its fullest. I've heard this saying abillion times, but not until recently have I truly understood what it really means. I've becomevery aware of the quantity of time I have been given. I have begun to make consciousdecisions on how I spend my time because as you know, once it's spent you can't get it back.

I once heard that we are here to make memories for our children. I haven't quite boughtinto that saying yet, but I certainly am more aware of the importance of how I will spend mytime. I find myself weighing the importance of anything related to time. I'm trying to avoiddoing things that just a short time ago I felt I had to. The preciousness of this unforeseen 'ticktock' is ever present.

I refuse to spend my time trying to make others happy. I refuse to spend my time doingthings that I don't want to do. I refuse to spend my time reading toxic Facebook posts. Irefuse to spend my time with people who don't appreciate me. I refuse to allow people totake my time and frivolously use it. I do things like sit in my vehicle and listen to the rest of asong from the 70's that has me rocking to the tune at 7:00 in the morning. The girls at thegym think I'm always running late, but what they don't know is that I've been up since 5:30or 6:00 a.m. and I'm sitting in my vehicle enjoying a song that I ACTUALLY know the wordsto. At that moment, I don't care if I'm late working out. I pay to work my butt off, so if I'msitting in my vehicle singing ‘Knock Three Times’ at the top of my lungs, well then, that is whatI choose to do with MY time.

I know that people of my generation totally understand what I'm talking about and if youdon't - you will - very soon. My parents always said "someday, you'll understand" and man 'o'man, I'm totally 'getting' it more and more each day.

I spent 2014 writing a Pet Peeve each month. This year, I've decided to change it aroundand recognize a saying that I appreciate in my life.

"The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing that you will make one."- Elbert Hubbard

Letter to the Editor:Show your gratitude daily

The town of St. Albert, Alberta, was a quiet, peaceful community where no doubt every-one took their police protection for granted until two of their own RCMP were tragicallyshot, one member fatally. Immediately, people poured out tributes with words, flowers andwhatever way they could, to express their sorrow and appreciation.

Weyburn, too, is a relatively quiet and peaceful city. Fortunately, we have had no suchtragedies here, but we are not necessarily immune. The unforseen can occur anywhere. Weshould show our gratitude to the Weyburn City Police and RCMP for daily putting theirlives on the line to keep us safe. Let us take every opportunity to thank and support themembers of our police forces.

Yours truly, Claire & Ed Kuhn

Bringing Saskatchewan-made products to students'plates at the U of S

When students at the University of Saskatchewan (U of S) sit down for a meal in theMarquis Culinary Centre, the central hub of the largest food services operation on campus,chances are they are eating something grown right here in Saskatchewan, which, it turns out,is quite an accomplishment.

"At first bringing in more local food seemed like an impossible task," said James McFarland,Culinary Services' assistant director and executive chef. "I'd go down to the farmers' market totalk to producers, but as soon as I talked about the volume we needed, we never gotanywhere."

What had to change was their approach."What we figured out is to try to do it in pieces. Even a number of smaller initiatives add

up," explained McFarland.Some products, like honey and camelina oil, are available in sufficient quantities year-

round, while others, like haskap berries, vegetables and greens, may be limited in quantity orseasonal and so are incorporated into the menu as they become available.

In addition to sourcing many foods from local distributors, including staples like meats,dairy and eggs, staff from Culinary Services have developed direct relationships with localproducers, bringing products grown right here in our province to the plates of universitystudents.

"We have our core menu, but nothing's really set in stone," said McFarland. "We've learnedto be flexible so we can take advantage of opportunities as they come up." As the word getsout to food producers and distributors, they expect those opportunities will increase.

However, sourcing local food is only part of the picture."What we're really focusing on is the education component," said McFarland. "In addition

to providing good food, we want to educate our diners about the value of locally sourcedingredients, with regards to both nutrition and sustainability."

McFarland's team educates the university community about the food prepared in MarquisCulinary Centrein person and using social media. Foods incorporating local ingredients areclearly identifiable as diners make their selections.

A recent campaign on Twitter and Instagram also featured the #usaskeatslocalhashtag,which McFarland says was both an opportunity to showcase some of the dishes createdusing local ingredients and for students to demonstrate how they incorporate locally grownfoods into their own cooking.

"Students today are more knowledgeable. They're interested in nutrition and social re-sponsibility, including knowing where their food comes from, and the idea of locally sourced,more sustainable foods," said McFarland. "We're glad we can do our part to foster thatawareness."
