Wawa Black Fly Run 2019 a Huge Success!!

Article by Ken Warwick   What a way to spend the first day of any weekend! The 2019 Wawa Black Fly Run happened this past Saturday. And I can say first hand, that it was the most fun I could have had that day without getting wet; sweating aside of course!   The conditions were absolutely perfect for a run of any sort Saturday morning, let alone for a fiercely contested and competitive tradition like the Black Fly Run. Friday night brought the typical wet and foggy weather we all love about Wawa, but that cool, damp weather set the stage for a cool and windless Saturday morning. Ideal running conditions to be sure.

It was the first time I had ever run the race without drenching rain, gale force winds, and oddly enough blackflies to contend with. However, this was only my second go at it, so considering the small sample size we should probably take it with a grain of salt. Those weather conditions will be back unless the race is moved to the Caribbean next year.   The event was well attended this year with participants of all skill levels, including a top-level performer in Eric Leishman who set the 10KM course record with a finishing time of 31:20. It is a testament to the hardworking team Sylvana Dereski has put together over the years to make

this event a continued success.   There were also a number of international competitors representing Australia as well as our good neighbours in the US. Dan Lantis and his partner Tracey Weatherholt made the trip up from Traverse City, MI to carry the Canadian flag as they completed their 10KM race.   My wife Kelly and I, met the couple in a race in St. Ignace, MI in early May. We stumbled onto them again in Mancelona, MI in early June at another race. We told them about the Black Fly Run which Dan was already familiar with. They resolved to be at the race come hell or high water (both frequent Wawa at times).   I had told them this was the last year the race was going to be held since that was what I had heard… incorrectly I now know. Apparently, the final edition is to be next year. My dad always told me, believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see. It’s still good advice!   Dan and Tracey travel every weekend to a race, racking up thousands of miles on both their legs and their vehicles. During their races, Dan always wears a hard hat featuring a star-spangled design and carries the US flag. This time however, he brought along a slightly more familiar flag. He wanted to bring along a flat brimmed Stetson hat, similar

to what the Mounties wear but alas, all that could be had on short notice was a cowboy hat. Most folks thought he was from Calgary!   We were honoured to have them carry the Canadian flag during the Black Fly Run and would like to thank you on behalf of everyone in Wawa. I speak for all of us when I say, we hope you can make it back next year. Below are the top 5 finishers for each distance:

May Contain Nuts Why It’s Not Processed Foods Fault.   A recent study was released confirming what many of us already suspected: eating a diet of processed foods-even when matched for sugar, fat & calories- leads to weight gain. The researchers admit their study had flaws, such as what constitutes a processed food; however, they were still surprised by the results. They thought because the processed and unprocessed diets were matched for calories, sugar, and fat, there would be no associated weight gain as it was previously thought the extra calories, sugar, and fat in processed foods were what caused weight gain.   The associated weight gain was 2lbs over the two-week trial. In my opinion-not something to get excited about. The weight gain could be attributed to increased stress, lack of sleep, less physical activity, hydration status, as all these things influence weight. This is why diets are so hard to study; there are so many confounding factors that cannot be controlled in a lab. Some individuals move more than others, some have more muscle mass so they burn more calories at rest, the list goes on.   Outside the lab processed food has made it into the cupboards and freezers of most homes-but it is not processed foods fault. It comes down to busy lifestyles and long work days, pickey eaters, lack of cooking skills, and just the plain ol’ lack of desire or energy or time to cook.   Don’t blame the frozen pizza that bakes while the kids change for soccer practice and head out the door, or the frozen dinner that gets microwaved after a long day at work made even longer by the commute. And what about those who cannot afford the ingredients to make meals from scratch, don’t blame the mac & cheese or the can soup from the food bank.   There is this ideology that everyone would be much healthier and happier if they sat with family or friends and enjoyed a meal homemade with love and care. But it is not always that simple. Some individuals may not know where they will sleep each night, little lone what table they will sit at for dinner. A shift worker may miss weeks of family meals as they are depended on for income. Or a household may have to choose between paying the bills and buying fresh produce.   Even if a diet consisting of processed food leads to weight gain, there are situations where these food items cannot be avoided. Simply encouraging people to make more meals from scratch or to eat less processed food is not always a realistic solution.

ADHD Is More Than A Mental Health Disorder. It Is A Public Health Issue, Reducing Life Expectancy By Up To 22 Years!  Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a chronic neurodevelopmental disorder affecting approximately 1.5 million Canadians. When left unrecognized and untreated ADHD can have devastating effects on one’s life. A recent study found that ADHD can shorten one’s life expectancy by up to 22 years if symptoms are persistent into adulthood. That is 2.5 times greater than the top four risk factors that we focus on as a society;obesity, alcohol use, smoking, and coronary heart disease combined. So why aren’t we paying more attention to ADHD? Most people think of ADHD as a childhood disorder of inattentive and overactive boys that is outgrown. In fact, for most, ADHD impairments continue into adolescence and adulthood resulting in a significant increase in health risks, fewer years of education, more unemployment, increased physical and car accidents,

more involvement in the justice system(a third of Canadian inmates are reported to have ADHD) and additional coexisting mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, suicide,and substance abuse.   Russ LeBlanc a past syndicated radio broadcaster, current public speaker, teacher and host and producer of Club ADHD the Podcast knows because he’s lived it. He was finally diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 49 after being unsuccessfully treated for depression for decades. “When I first heard about the results of this study it really hit me hard. Some of the mental and physical health risks highlighted in the CADDAC paper and the study apply to me. But, my ADHD has finally been diagnosed. I’m being treated and that treatment is helping me to actively work on reducing the very health risks that ADHD helped cause.”  The Centre for ADHD Awareness, Canada’s newly

released policy paper, ADHD: A Significant Health Risk, highlights how when left untreated ADHD can be devastating. The paper suggests that a portion of the dollars spent annually in Canada on awareness and prevention of other health risks would be better allocated towards diagnosing and treating ADHD. Since ADHD is the most easily treated psychiatric disorder, this would result in savings to our health, education,child and family, social service and justice budgets.  “Funding and resources available would be better spent on early detection and treatment, rather than paying for the devastating consequences that occur when government’s ignore this serious health disorder, says Heidi Bernhardt CADDAC’s Founder and President. CADDAC is calling on all provincial, territorial and federal health ministries to start taking ADHD seriously by developing a working

group on ADHD to explore how resources for those with ADHD could be improved leading to the reduction in economic and societal costs associated with ADHD.

How to beat Str8ts – Like Sudoku, no single number can repeat in any row or column. But... rows and columns are divided by black squares into compartments. These need to be filled in with numbers that complete a ‘straight’. A straight is a set of numbers with no gaps but can be in any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black cells remove that number as an option in that row and column, and are not part of any straight. Glance at the solution to The solutions will be published here in the next issue. see how ‘straights’ are formed.

Don’t Miss the Bus! Screen for Life Coach Returns to Wawa and Region RESOLUTIONS - Jim White Chapter 21

Mary and Mark had a rough Easter weekend, too – although not as dramatic as Henry and Alice's turned out to be. Mark's cancer had become so aggressive that on Good Friday morning, he and Mary went to the hospital. That afternoon, they flew him out to Princess Margaret hospital. (That was a busy day for the airport, with Sgt. James Bond being flown out in the morning, and now Mark). Mary stayed in Wawa, despite pleading from Mark and the hospital staff. But she was adamant.   “I know you will be fine, once you get your treatment down there, and you will be back in no time. I would just be in your way, plus I think that I am coming down with a cold. You wouldn't want to catch that, would you. Just call me every day with an update.” Before anyone in the emergency room could react or say anything, she turned and rushed away.   So Mark was left to face his ordeal alone, and Mary went back to her increasingly small, bizarre world. ----------------------------------  Jack and Meisha had planned to go away for the Easter weekend, but Meisha was also ill, only it was from her pregnancy, or at least that was what was presumed to be the case. So she spent most of the weekend in bed. Jack spent most of the weekend working in the spare bedroom to get it prepared for the new arrival, even though the baby was not due until later

in the year. He just wanted to get it done ahead of time, he told everyone – since closer to delivery time there might not be a chance to complete it the way they wanted it. However, he did spend a fair bit of time out of the house, supposedly at the hardware store, getting paint, and stuff... ----------------------------------  Harvey and Hannah just had their usual routine – Harvey working part time at home, and then disappearing. But on the Thursday night at the start of the weekend, he didn't come home for supper, and finally came in about 10:30. He seemed really excited, and explained to Hannah that he had made a fantastic stock deal for one of his clients. That client took him out for supper, and to the bar for a few drinks, as a way of thanking him. Of course, she accepted this story as true, as she always did. On Good Friday, he was fidgety, she felt. But for the first time since they had been married, they went to church. Hannah was so happy about this. But in the afternoon, he disappeared again. But she was just so thankful for their time together that she didn't mind it at all. She spent the rest of weekend cleaning and cooking. She was still curious about what he did in that study, but she had not gotten a chance to get in again, like her other brief foray from earlier. ----------------------------------  But now we are into June, and things have evolved into a few new wrinkles as a result of our groups' New Year resolutions…

Katherine Mayer, Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre   The Screen for Life Coach is on the road again, returning to a full travel season for 2019. The mobile health screening service visits more than 70 different locations in Northwestern Ontario throughout the year to provide breast, cervical and colorectal cancer screening.   Lauren Beach, Mobile Coach Lead at the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre, is preparing for the upcoming travel season. “We are excited to get the Coach back on the road! Our team of registered nurses and medical radiation technologists look forward to providing highquality health care services, and seeing some familiar faces in the region,” said Beach.  The Coach increases access for people living in Northwestern Ontario, however many are still not being screened for cancer. In fact, approximately 40% of eligible people in our region are overdue for breast, cervical and colorectal cancer screening. “Cancer screening is testing done on people who may be at risk of getting cancer, but who have no symptoms and generally feel fine,” explained Beach. “Regular screening is important because it can find early changes that could lead

to cancer.”  In Ontario, the cancer screening guidelines for average risk men and women are as follows:   •Women, who are between the ages of 50 and 74 years, should have a mammogram every two years to screen for breast cancer.   •Women between the ages of 21 and 69 years, who have ever been sexually active, should have a Pap test to screen for cervical cancer every three years.   •Men and women, between the ages of 50 and 74 years who have no first-degree family history of colorectal cancer, should complete a take-home colorectal cancer screening kit every two years.   All of these cancer screening tests are provided on the Screen for Life Coach. No physician referral is required to access the services offered on the Screen for Life Coach, however an appointment is recommended. Regular cancer screening can detect cancer in its early stages, when it is less likely to have spread and is easier to treat.   The Coach travels from Wawa to the Manitoba border, and everywhere in between, including many First Nation communities. In some cases, the Coach may be in a community more than once throughout the travel season. Beach urged

residents not to wait. “As the saying goes, don’t miss the bus! Get screened when the Coach is in your community. Make cancer screening a priority and call us to avoid having to travel for your appointment.”   The Screen for Life Coach will be parked in Hornepayne at the Hornepayne Community Hospital from June 25-28, White River at the White River Medical Centre from July 2-3, Dubreuiville at the Centre Récréatif Dubreuilville Recreation Centre from July 4-5, Wawa at the Michipicoten Community Centre from July 6-11, and Chapleau at the Chapleau Medical Centre from July 11-14. Call (807) 684-7777 or 1-800-461-7031 to book your cancer screening appointment on the Coach. To see the complete travel season schedule, visit www. tbrhsc.net/screenforlife or follow us Facebook by searching for ‘Screen for Life Coach Northwest’.   Don’t miss the bus!

A little late but not less heart felt comes my thank you to all who helped “delitter” our town. If only we could keep it that way. A big part was the transportation of helpers and trash and therefore a big thanks to Peter Moore for the wheels and gas from Davidson Fuels. Thank you also to people who came with us only once or twice – every bit helped and also people I don’t know who pick up as they walk (much appreciated). But I have to thank especially my three “musketeers” – Cindy, Astrid and Audrey – who were always willing to help, in uncomfortable weather conditions – and it was sometimes awful: freezing winds and rain and soggy, slippery grounds.

We can do better.   Instead of cedar wood fences, posts and retaining walls made from trees, could we not recycle discarded plastic to make hard, sturdy plastic fences, etc. that will last indefinitely instead of going to companies that keep making money down the road by returning customers? That idea is better than decimating forests to replace a leaning or rotting fence that is also not cheap to fix. Shame on the industry. It’s an endless cycle of whacking down trees and repeating the same because of poor work. It's not rocket science — even if it is pressure treated or stained — if that wood exposed to wet soil will rot and attract pests and bugs to cause increased destruction. How many pristine

another step from exhaustion, one kind lady took my dog for walks faithfully. This is what living in a small community is all about, helping each other and extend kindness.   It might sound corny mentioning it in my garbologist report, but an old Chinese proverb to live by comes to mind: If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.   Enjoy our clean natural beauty and stop littering. Karin Grundt forests could you save if we tried ideas including plastic caps for fence posts to limit surface rot? So, why not recycle plastic into better uses than to ship it abroad to mock us as hypocrites with junk cloaked in it. Perhaps plastic could be recycled to make cellular phone covers, gun and construction tool cases, retaining walls, outdoor deck material, plastic wheelbarrows, electric fan covers, plumbing pipes, etc. Why not? We recycle and use pressed wood in construction?   Those companies who shipped plastic to foreign markets that had other junk in it like diapers, etc., should be heavily fined and jailed, no excuses. And our taxes should not pay for this scandal under Trudeau's headship. How many slam us for failed environmental policies and waste? Perhaps you could make roof shingles, tool boxes, toys, etc?   To those who recycle them for reusable commodities, kudos. Now it’s time we go after industry giants as well and should encourage them with rebates and incentives. We need to limit our footprint on Mother Earth. She's fighting back with a vengeance as we are our own worst enemies. Kerwin Maude, B.A. Pitt Meadows, B.C.

Aries (Mar. 21 - April 20)   Avoid any confrontations with colleagues. Put your emotional energy into passion not anxiety Social events held in your home will be successful and entertaining for all. You will be able to talk about emotional problems with your partner. Taurus (Apr. 21 - May 21)   This will be a good day for research and for sitting down with some good, informative reading material. Educational courses will be stimulating and successful. Pleasure trips will be a form of healing for your emotional state of mind. Don't bother trying to make someone you live with see your point of view. Gemini (May 22 - June 21)   Younger relatives may seek your advice. Get promises in writing or you will be disappointed. Try to convince a good friend to take a holiday with you. Don't be too quick to judge your loved ones. Cancer (June 22 - July 22)   Daydreaming will be your downfall. Reevaluate your motives. Physical work or exercise should be part of your schedule. Travel for business or pleasure. Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)   Someone you work with could try to undermine you. Refrain from using the high-

WEEKLY HOROSCOPES way as a racetrack. You need to interact with others if you want to expand your knowledge. Try to keep ahead of the game.

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 23)   You might have some problems balancing your books. You may be frazzled this week. Be careful that you don't overextend yourself. Overindulgent people will cause disruptions in your life. Libra (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23)   This is not the best time to take a risk, to gamble or spend money you really can't afford to part with. Dinner, theater, or a comedy club may be just the place. You may be emotional and quick to judge others. You can make extra cash by moonlighting. Scorpio (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22)   Don't be too eager to spend what's left over; more unexpected expenses are evident. Someone you live with will be quite unreason able this week. Opportunities to meet new lovers will evolve through your interaction with groups or fundraising functions. Don't get involved in expensive entertainment that involves gambling. Sagittarius (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21)   You need to take a break with the ones you love. Don't overspend to impress others.

Join a choir or a drama club. You may be considering moving to larger quarters. Stay calm and focus on things that will help you understand the situation better. Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20)   Don't confide in any relatives whom you know have a tendency to meddle in other people's affairs. Your attitude could be up and down like a yo-yo. Do not yield to children or relatives when they really don't deserve it. Difficulties with your mate may lead to estrangement. Aquarius (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19)   You can't make things better if you don't know what to fix. Financial limitations will not be as adverse as they appear. Try to channel your energy into physical work. This will not be the best day to make changes or renovations to your residence. Pisces (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20)   Your self esteem will come back if you take part in organizational functions that allow you to be in the lime light. Do your best, but don't make too many promises or you may exhaust yourself. Get motivated and follow up on some self-improvement resolutions. Concern yourself with legal matters and formulating contracts rather than finalizing your objectives.

J. Kathleen Thompson lost her sister to ovarian cancer and now she is on a mission to raise awareness and counter the disease with a cross-Canada bicycle ride. June 19, Thompson will arrive in Wawa, an overnight stop on her way to Halifax.   The stats on ovarian cancer are devastating, yet funding remains woefully inadequate. One in two women diagnosed with ovarian cancer will die within five years and more research is needed. The lack of a reliable screening method and difficulty of detection in the early stages are factors that contribute to low survival rate.   Thompson’s sister, Sheila Rae Trautman, Kamloops, B.C., died at age 59 in November 2018, three-and-a-half after diagnosis.
