The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Monday, July 23, 2018 Page 5 Magog increases spending for school safety work Record Staff The City of Magog is injecting half a million dollars into improvements aimed at increasing student safety at Saint-Jean-Bosco and Sainte-Mar- guerite schools.At Saint-Jean-Bosco Elementary School, work to be done is a continuation of developments already begun, focusing more on Didace Street with a narrowing of the roadway, construction of sidewalks and tree planting.As for École Sainte-Marguerite, specifically on Saint-David and des Tisserands Streets, work is targeting the construction of a bus shelter, the reconstruction of sidewalks, and the planting of trees.Barriers to traffic are possible on the rue des Tisserands at certain times depending on the work to be done.The two projects began at the end of classes and are expected to last eight weeks.The City also plans the rehabilitation of Bordeleau St.in the Lake Lovering area over a period of four weeks after Labor Day.The $236,000 budget will allow the reconstruction of the roadway between Gatien St.and civic address 293.Local traffic will be allowed, but a detour will be set up via Gélinas, Merisiers, and Pruches streets.CONT\u2019D FROM PAGE 1 \u201cWe had a good mix of rural and town kids, not like today at Galt where your best friend lives 72 miles away,\u201d she continued with a laugh.\u201cEveryone was close.The school was very active sports- wise and socially too.We were very competitive, we\u2019d travel all over for tournaments.\u201d Wilson said that she has compiled a list of over 2000 past students from LHS, many, however, have since passed away.In fact, in the five years since the last reunion, the LHS crew has sadly lost over 50 classmates.Gone though they may be, they have certainly not been forgotten.According to Wilson, at the last reunion they held a memorial ceremony in front of their old school, now Lennoxville Elementary, and placed a plaque in their honor.This year, a park bench will be placed to go with the plaque in a memorial service on Saturday.Though organizing reunions is not a small task, Wilson said the effort is more than worth it.\u201cIt\u2019s a lot of work, and often when the big day comes I\u2019m more tired than I\u2019d like to be,\u201d she chuckled.\u201cA lot of my class won\u2019t be able to come, which is too bad, but it\u2019s always nice to see everyone and reconnect with one another.\u201d The Lennoxville High School 2018 reunion has a website, www.lhsre- union2018.com.There, past students can register for the reunion (for a fee) and see pictures of the 2013 event.Don\u2019t miss out- RVSP quickly!

By Mable Hastings In 1897, eight-year-old Virginia O\u2019Han- lon wrote a letter to the editor of the New York Sun.Veteran newsman, Francis Pharcellus Church printed a quick response as an unsigned editorial on September 21, 1897 (Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus) and is has since become history\u2019s most reprinted newspaper editorial.In the light of Virginia O\u2019Hanlon and with the childlike sense of belief and pride in my youth, I pen this message hoping that someone who can work magic, much like Francis Phar- cellus Church, might decide to help.Two years ago I was given the position of Executive Director of the Mis- sisquoi North Volunteer Centre (CABMN) in Potton (Mansonville) after working as the Youth Director for the CABMN for close to thirty five years.My one request in taking the job was that I could maintain some involvement in working with youth from Potton and surrounding areas as I had done for so many years.It was agreed.The goal of the youth programs in Potton is to build leaders one youth at a time.We aim to instil in every youth that each of them are dancers, actors, speakers, leaders and we emphasize self- esteem, respect for others and support for community while encouraging a strong sense of pride for the area from which they have been raised.Potton is a small township encompassing 5 towns with Mansonville being the largest and its service center.With some 1800 permanent residents, we are likely not the first stop listed on the itinerary of the famous BUT, I strongly believe that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau needs to visit our community.Not only to meet our youth but to witness the volunteerism and involvement of our citizens who \u201cmake things happen here.\u201d I know that when he campaigned, Mr.Trudeau visited the townships but I do not believe that Potton was a stop on his route.The Youth Centre in Mansonville would be proud to host a Prime Minister who professes to be all about empowering youth and recognizing the contribution of each young heart and mind.It\u2019s not what the Prime Minister of Canada can do for Potton but what the youth of Potton can do for our Prime Minister.We have some of the most amazing young people in the country who have been, are being and who will be raised in Potton.We have one of the most beautiful areas to be seen with Lake Memphremagog, the Missisquoi River and Owl\u2019s Head and the other mountains surrounding our villages.We are empowered by the adults who volunteer their time and make the community life happen.Building a youth centre, the Sunshine House for the intellectually and physically challenged, creating a Farmer\u2019s Market, community garden, children\u2019s garden, and a place with so many other projects coming to fruition\u2026.Connecting with a small group of youth who are being raised in a rural border town and hearing their words, sharing their stories, receiving their smiles and posing for photos with these beautiful youngsters will bring any human let alone a youth celebrating Prime Minister, the perfect boost to go back to Ottawa with faith that our Country is in good hands for many years to come.Meeting families and individuals who are serving as a model for the youth\u2026 So, to someone reading this letter who, like Francis Pharcellus Church, way back when, may be thinking, \u201chey, I can help make this happen,\u201d get out your wand and get to work on a worthwhile miracle.Justin will thank you in the end, I promise.EDITORIAL Page 6 Monday , July 23 2018

The incident came while the safety car was deployed following Vettel's sudden crash.Hamilton decided against pitting at the last second and crossed the grass to rejoin the track _ which is prohibited.\u201cI just slowed down and trundled over some grass, and tried to join the track as safely as I could,'' said Hamilton, who finished ahead of Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas.Governing body FIA said it cleared Hamilton _ who faced a 5-second time penalty which would have handed Bottas the victory _ because \u201cdriver and the team candidly admitted the mistake'' and \u201cat no time was there any danger to any other competitor.'' Earlier, heavy rain played havoc at the Hockenheimring as Vettel misjudged a basic entry into a turn and slid over the gravel into the barriers with 15 laps to go.The four-time Formula One champion started from pole position and seemed in control.He kicked the gravel in frustration as he stepped out his car.\u201cI threw it away.It was my mistake,'' Vettel said.\u201cI was a tiny bit too late on the brakes, locked the rears and I could- n't turn.It wasn't the biggest mistake I've done, but one of the most costly ones.'' His mishap opened the door wide open for Hamilton, who is 17 points clear of Vettel after trailing by eight beforehand.The British driver was fourth at the time of Vettel's sudden lapse, having started from 14th on the grid because of a hydraulic problem in qualifying.\u201cYou've always got to believe,'' said Hamilton, adding defiantly: \u201cFor those who don't know me, now you do.'' Bottas started and finished second, with Kimi Raikkonen taking third for Ferrari.Lance Stroll of Montreal did not finish after starting in 17th.Red Bull driver Max Verstappen was fourth for Red Bull, but teammate Daniel Ricciardo retired after rising from last on the grid to seventh.Vettel's incident led to a safety car coming out for several laps, prompting confusion at Mercedes.Hamilton was told to come into the pits, but ignored his mechanic screaming \u201cIn, in, in, in!'' at him.\u201cThey were all panicking in the pit wall,'' said Hamilton, who started to move into the pit lane before doubling back and landing himself in trouble with stewards.\u201cIt was the most confusing thing,'' Hamilton said, recounting his team's orders.\u201cThey were shouting 'No, (go) left! No, (go) right!'' When the race resumed, with about 10 laps left, Bottas almost overtook Hamilton.Shortly after, Bottas was firmly told on team radio to \u201chold position'' and not challenge Hamilton.\u201cTaking positives as a team, perfect result for us,'' said Bottas, who added _ seemingly half-heartedly _ that he \u201cunderstood'' the call.Ferrari made a call, too, at Raikko- nen's expense.With a little more than 20 of the 67 laps to go, he was leading Vettel, who complained of his tires overheating.Ferrari's senior performance engineer, Jock Clear, told Raikkonen not to hold up Vettel.Raikkonen replied: \u201cI'm sorry but can you be direct?What do you want?'' After another indirect message, Raikkonen added \u201cSo you want me to let him (past)?Please.Just tell me.'' He eventually did, ending the Finnish driver's hopes of a first win since the sea- son-opening Australian GP in 2013.Asked about the instructions, Raikko- nen said \u201cit wasn't clear, I had the speed.'' Hamilton's win moved him level with F1 great Michael Schumacher on four German GP wins Vettel had won once before in Germany _ at the Nuerburgring _ but has never won at Hockenheim.He grew up less than 30 minutes away, in Heppen- heim, and may never get a better chance amid doubts over future F1 races.The German GP turned the tables on Ferrari, which also conceded top spot to Mercedes in the constructors' championship.Things started well, though, with Vet- tel getting away cleanly and setting fastest laps Raikkonen was the first of the frontrunners to change tires, on Lap 15, coming out just ahead of Hamilton.Losing speed, Hamilton changed tires on lap 43.When he came back out, the heavy rain started falling.Raikkonen lost position to Bottas, and Vettel lost control of the title race.Vettel needs to bounce back strongly at the Hungarian GP next weekend, or Hamilton will take the momentum into the summer break.

When it comes to mental well-being, years of research show that spending time outdoors is good for us.Sunlight plays a role, and so does the length of available daylight.We agree with you that it\u2019s important to take the time each day to get out of the house or workplace and spend some time outside.Eve Glazier, M.D., MBA, is an internist and associate professor of medicine at UCLA

unique to me.I am a senior in high school and an extremely modest girl.I have nightmares about being seen or treated by male doctors and nurses.My mother is insisting that I go to see her gynecologist, a young man.What she does not know is that a former boyfriend of hers sexually abused me several years ago.He died in a car wreck shortly after the abuse started, and his death devastated her so much that I decided it would do no good to upset her even more, so I never told her about what happened.Now all I seem to be reading in the news are stories of how a lot of high-profile male doctors and nurses are being charged with all kinds of sexual offenses, making my concerns that much worse.To add to the situation, the mom of one of my best girlfriends is dating a male nurse who works at the local hospital, and he has been telling my best friend\u2019s mom all kinds of horror stories about how several of the male nurses he works with are so sexually perverted that it disturbs him.And he explains that they know how to hide it so no one knows anything is wrong while they get their kicks from examining and giving bed baths to their female patients.Some of the patients even delight in telling others about \u201chow nice and thoughtful\u201d the male nurses are.All of this leads me to ask: Unless they tell us or are caught, how do we know what a man is thinking in such medical settings?And how can I keep my mom from forcing me to do something I think would cause a lifetime of mental pain and torment for me?I don\u2019t think I\u2019m the only female with these feelings.Please try to answer this, as my mom reads your column.\u2014 Tormented and Distressed Dear Tormented and Distressed: I am so proud of you for having the courage to write about what happened.Your heart was very much in the right place when you refrained from upsetting your mother with what her boyfriend did to you.But now you have to clear the air \u2014 either by telling a therapist or by telling your mom everything that happened.You suffered a trauma with your mom\u2019s boyfriend, so it makes sense that you would be concerned about other patients or even yourself having to endure the same type of ordeal.As for the mom of your friend, whose boyfriend is talking about the completely inappropriate behavior of his co-workers, tell your mom about this so that she can report it.I am so sorry that you had to go through the experience you had with your mom\u2019s boyfriend, but if you can take that hurt and use it as fuel to save future patients from being victims of abuse, you should feel pretty good about yourself.I know you can do it.After hearing your story, I\u2019m almost positive your mother will understand your not wanting a male nurse or doctor to touch you.Many women and girls only feel comfortable with female doctors.That is their choice, and it should be yours.Dear Annie: I am doing graduate work online for professional development in my field.The courses require a lot of reading.My manager approves of my course of study, but our organization\u2019s policies do not allow eating lunch at the desk, because of the possibility of getting food in the computer keyboards.I bring my lunch to work rather than go to a restaurant, not only because of the cost but also because of food allergies.I need to use my lunch hour for reading my textbooks.The lunchroom is the only place where I can eat in the office.At lunch, the rest of the staff gathers in there, gossips and shares pictures and videos (think baby pictures and kitten videos).Because I do not want to seem rude by ignoring the gossip and kitten videos, I have been driving off-site at lunch, to a nearby shopping center parking lot, and eating lunch and studying in my parked car.However, that takes extra time.I would like to just be able to eat and read my textbook while the others are gossiping and sharing their pictures and videos.My co-workers know about my graduate work, and no one has put me down for it, but I am concerned that ignoring their gossip and kitten videos for a textbook in their presence might be construed as rude.So I ask you: Is it rude to study at noon in the office lunchroom?\u2014 Bookworm Dear Bookworm: Don\u2019t worry your well-read head.Your co-workers all understand that you\u2019re completing graduate work, and they should be supportive of your study habits.To prevent anyone from taking your focused reading the wrong way, offer a disclaimer, such as: \u201cI promise I\u2019m not trying to be rude by ignoring everyone.I just need to buckle down and get some work done.But please feel free to talk and hang out here as normal.\u201d I would recommend using noise- canceling headphones and white-noise (or binaural beats) apps to help you get in the studying headspace no matter your physical space.Dear Annie: I am overwhelmed by my husband\u2019s sister.We are in our mid-70s, and I have been in the family for 30 years.Not once have I ever been invited to her main home or vacation home (nor have I ever stepped foot in her homes), yet she has been in my home for lavish meals on countless occasions.She has also dined in restaurants with her husband and us at our expense.As children of the South, we were taught that when you accept an invitation in polite society, it is understood you then reciprocate.If you\u2019re not willing to reciprocate, you shouldn\u2019t accept the invitation.She has always been as well-off financially as my husband and I are.I am shocked at her continued feeling of entitlement.My husband thinks the way she treats me is OK.Why?I am very angry with both of them.\u2014 Child of the South Dear Child of the South: It sounds as if someone missed her lessons with Emily Post.It\u2019s not just Southern hospitality that encourages people to be welcoming and thoughtful to guests.It is common decency, and your sister-in-law has worn through your hospitality.You should ask your husband what is going on.It makes no sense that all invitations go one way.Until you get to the bottom of it, you should hold off on inviting them back to your house.\u201cAsk Me Anything: A

Then, South should have rebid either three clubs (and passed North\u2019s three-no-trump continuation) or quietly raised to three no-trump.Many pairs would treat four clubs as Gerber, asking for aces.The deal was played 15 times at Bridge Base Online.Only one pair reached three no-trump (by South after one diamond - two clubs - two hearts - three clubs - three spades - three no- trump), and West found the disastrous lead of the spade eight.Every other table was in five clubs.Nine made it, usually after West led the spade ace and continued with the spade eight.East won with the queen and thought the king was cashing.However, South ruffed, drew trumps and claimed.Four who went down could have succeeded.At the last table, my wife was West.She led the spade ace.Perhaps I should have played the king, but I actually followed with the four because we use upside-down signals.However, now, very carefully, my wife cashed the diamond ace! Then another spade beat the contract."]
