The Bean’s new flavour

Welcome to a new flavour of The Weekly Bean! If you haven’t heard the news ... as of October 1, this publication changed hands. Kate Winquist of Your Southwest Media Group purchased The Bean. The previous owner, Harland Lesyk will be Sales Manager for the publication.

Kate is looking forward to this new venture, and enjoys adding her personal touch to everything she does, which includes the production of The Weekly Bean. In the weeks ahead, you may notice a few changes here and there, as she works her magic.

Whether it’s designing ads, selecting interesting content, or laying out the pages of The Bean, Kate always has a goal in mind. That goal is to have the end result of her hard work result in each publication looking its very best ... crisp, clean and interesting.

She invites you to have a look inside and experience the fresh new flavour of The Weekly Bean.

For the latest Frame Arrivals!

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) An ongoing problem with a co-worker might need to be sent to arbitration. Get all your facts together so that you have a solid base from which to make your argument.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Cosmic changes create a potential for disruptions in your travel plans. In the meantime, you might want to consider shifting your focus to another area of your life that needs attention.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s a good time for beauty-loving Bovines to enjoy something special for the senses. It will restore your spirit and return you to the workaday-world ready for the next challenge.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) With your planetary ruler, Mercury, going retrograde, you might want to slow down the pace in pursuing some of your projects. Rushing things could be counterproductive.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Tensions begin to ease in those once-testy relationships. This helps create a more positive aspect all around. Expect to hear news that could lead you to rethink a recent decision.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) The pace of activity that had slowed last week now begins to pick up. This is good news for Leos and Leonas who have career-building plans that need to be put into operation.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Venus offers encouragement to romance-seeking Virgos who are ready to get up, get out and meet more people, one of whom could be that long-sought soul mate.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You are usually decisive about most matters. But you might want to defer your decision-making this week until you get more facts. Someone is holding out on you.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) That quiet period is ending, and a new burst of activity creates some problems at the workplace. But things are soon resolved, and everything goes back to normal.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Relationships could be either helpful or hurtful as you pursue your career goals. You might have to make some difficult choices depending on what your priorities are.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You might still have some doubts about a career move that could involve a lot of travel. If so, continue to check things out until you feel secure about making a decision.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Love rules, as Venus continues to exercise her cosmic influence on both single and attached Pisces. New developments might cause you to change your travel plans.

BORN THIS WEEK: You often think of others before you consider your own needs. You enjoy helping people and would make a fine teacher or caregiver.

“Pulp Fiction”

Dennis Welding

When I called Grant Casswell for an interview day and time, I asked him if he would like a coffee. “Sure” he said. “Make it black”. So, I did and then we were off talking about a multitude of topics but mainly focusing on Dennis Welding.

Let us take a trip back to the late 70’s. 1978 to be specific. That’s when Dennis Pendree had the idea to start his own welding business. Dennis started his welding business on his farm with a mobile welding truck. As he got busier and busier with work, he decided that what he really needed was an actual bigger shop to expand into. Starting small, he shared some space in a shop in Kindersley, and later took over the entire shop to expand business.

Grant, who was working for Dennis at the time, saw the opportunity to get ahead and expand his own welding business. He and Dennis made a deal for Grant to buy out the business. This process began in 2016 and is still proceeding on schedule.

Dennis Welding does many kinds and types of welding. They do pressure piping, pressure vessel welding, structural welding, pipeline, aluminum, and stainless-steel pressure piping welding. They also fabricate pressure vessels and have mobile well test separators for rent. The shop and its employees are extremely knowledgeable and have all the required tickets. Mobile trucks also are ready to go and will come to your location to get the job done.

Welding and safety tickets are only valid for short periods, 2 to 3 years, so keeping up on renewals can be a busy job all on its own. Business has been picking up and that’s always a good thing. Dennis Welding currently employs approx. 10 workers being welders, labourers, pipefitters, and 2 office admin.

About Pipeline Online

Based in Estevan, Pipeline Online is Saskatchewan’s Energy News, focusing not only on oil and gas, but the related industries that make use of the same people, companies, equipment and expertise. This will include geothermal power production, helium, lithium, and solution potash mining. There will also be extensive coverage of power generation, as it’s all related.

This will be 21st century journalism, allowing for things like video stories and podcasts. But unlike most other news sites, it won’t be about the soundbite. Pipeline Online will provide the depth, knowledge and analysis that no one else does regarding the Saskatchewan energy sector. Where other media might write five paragraphs, here you might find five stories.

You’re going to see stories about the people with dirt under their fingernails, the companies that struggled

through the downturns and COVID, and have survived. People with ingenuity, grit, determination, business acumen and just plain guts. We keep the lights on and houses warm, not only in this province, but in this country and across the world.

It’s about Saskatchewan, for Saskatchewan. Pipeline Online will be on the ground, from Lloydminster to Kindersley, Shaunavon to Carlyle. Our contributors know and understand Saskatchewan, and are either from here, have worked here, or have other ties. You’ll see coverage from the Lloydminster area of Alberta, and we’ll show some love to the southwest Manitoba oilpatch (no one else does. Heck, half the time the Manitoba government doesn’t even know it’s there.) We might even venture into North Dakota on occasion.

If it concerns Saskatchewan’s energy sector, you’ll find it here.

What can dogs eat at Thanksgiving?

Dogs can enjoy some Thanksgiving meals without spices or harmful flavors. Thanksgiving meals you can share with your dog are unseasoned, skinless, and boneless turkey, sweet potatoes, potatoes, plain green beans, peas, carrots, corn, bread, apple, and pumpkin. What should dogs not eat at Thanksgiving?

Some of the foods you should avoid during thanksgiving are meals with xylitol, excess carbs, scallions, bones, grapes, raisins, chocolates, onions, garlic, seasoning,

fats, and lactose. Examples of such meals would be the skin or bone of the thanksgiving turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, dark chocolates, grape or raisin salads, and cake.

Can dogs eat cheese?

Most dogs are lactose intolerant, but cheese has less lactose than milk. So, they can enjoy minimal or moderate cheese servings during thanksgiving. Moreover, cheese has calcium, proteins, vitamin B-complex, essential fatty acids, and vitamin A. You can opt to give your dog lowfat cheese like soft goat cheese, cottage cheese, or mozzarella since they have lower sodium and fat content.

Can dogs eat carrots?

Your dog can have carrots during and after Thanksgiving. Carrot is a healthy snack that is low in calories and rich in B-carotene, vitamin A, fiber, and potassium. However, when serving your pooch carrots, it is safe to cut it to reduce the chunk size and avoid potential choking hazards. Additionally, carrots are great for your dog’s teeth and coat health.
