We've Got The Best Country Pale " TIIF NFWS POST Wed. %ugust 26. 199" Opinion a page for expression for you and us What Are Our Priorities? by Bob Watson It is very nice that our premiers and the Prime !Minister have managed -after thousands of hours -to come up with some changes in the constitution to satisfy a handful of pro- vinces, especially Quebec, and, of course, our native peo- ple. Naturally. we now hear the femininist demand that half of the proposed senate be women' Of course. all the while our illustrious politicians are striving to change the ridiculous constitution that was plac- ed on us by the Trudeau government, the economy has fallen apart and thousands of individuals, small companies and large comapnies have gone bankrupt. The consumer is holding back from shopping and spen- ding because of his or her fear of being laid off next week. Small companies are holding back and borrowing heavily to try and survive till the economy becomes more normal. But if you are a highly paid politician these problems are not obviotts and in the next federal election due in 1993 these hard facts will hit those politicians hard. Come on everyone - let's get our country into world trade, an efficient and economic system for our own land and en- thusiasm for our beloved country' OMA Concerned About Drug Benefit Changes The Ontario Medical Association is concerned that recent changes to the Ontario Drug Benefit Plan may have a negative effect on the ability of physicians to canrtinue to provide a high standard of care for those patients eligible for ODB benefits. Dr. Ted Boadway. director of health policy for the OMA. said that the Ministry of Health's Drug Quality and Therapeutics Committee I DQTC a did not ptrovide to key groups the tech: cal and scientific irffocmabon used during the Ministrv*s decision-making process. -Without this type of information," said Boadwav, ,it's dtfftcult to understand the rationale for delisting certain drugs. utide maintaining over -the -coulter products with a similar function.- Boadway said the OMA is unhappy with the consultation process used by the Ministry of Health. "Our Drugs and pityCommittee had only one opportunity to meet with Ministry representatives to review the DQTC's proposed deletions- of over-the-counter medications from the ODB. and recommendations on products to be retained. We feel we did not have adequate time to carefully review these proposals and recommendations-" Boadway said the OMA recommended that government provide a list of insured therapies to substitute for the deleted drugs to assist physicians when prescribing to ODB patients. but this has not happened. "Frankly we're confused by the final list of drugs taken off the ODB pian," said Boadway. "For exmaple, we were advised by the :Mi.nistry that over -tete -counter an- tihistamines such as Hismanal and Seldane would not be considered for deletion from the ODB. However, it seems they have indeed been taken off the list, as have some prescription antihistamines." He pointed out that the OMA was not consulted on a number of other prescription chugs which have been taken off the drug plan. These include the antibiotic drugs Mycostatin and Septra, blood pressure medication Aldo- ment and Hydr'odiuril. corticosteroid creams Betnovate and Kenalog, the antidepressant drug Elavil, and the antip- sychotic drug Haldol. "To ensure that patient care is not adversely affected, it is crucial that physicians, pharmacists and other key pro- viders be given an opportunity to thoroughly review propos- ed changes to the ODB." said Boadway.

He publicly congratulated the participants and termed the result '•a spectacular tribute to the pride felt by so many people across this land... As has been the case with each of the previous Canada 125 coin launches, a special guest of honour was the coin's designer. Greg Salmela is a graphic designer from Landon, Ontario. He commented. "Designing this coin was one of those rare moments in my life where an elements seemed to fall beautifully into place. The splendour of the wind- swept jack pine is without a doubt a dtstinct and unique coin for the province of Ontario." Auto Windows Tinting The tinting of car windows is becoming increasingly popular for motorists today. People will tint windows for various reasons. appearance. privacy, or to help keep their car interior cooler in the summer. Whatever your reason, you should be aware that there are some rules that apply to tinted windows. The Highway Traffic Act of Ontario does not allow any window coating to be placed on any automobile windows which could obstruct the driver's view to the front, sides or Also, the windshield and driver's side windows must not be coated in such a manner that will obstruct the view of the driver of the vehicle from the front or sides. It is the responsibility of the driver of the car to ensure that the tinting of the windows complies with the law.

Resale Housing Market Gains Momentum Residential resales in Canada's major housing markets continued to improve, advancing by 5.1 percent in July compared to the same month last year. Figures released by The Canadian Real Estate Associa- tion t CREA i confirm that buyers continue to be drawn into the housing market as a result of lower interest rates. Residential unit sales reached 17.1106 in July 199'2, compared to 16,947 in July 1991, for its condition.

August 26, 1992 THE NEWS POST Page.3 Surgery May Be Prevented By Listening To The Knee A research team at the University of Calgary is developing a tool to study cartilage damage by listen- ing to the knees during movement. This non- invasive technique would not only spare the patient needless surgery but also allow doctors to intervene earlier, and perhaps reduce the chance of developing osteoarthritis. "The key reason for vibroarthrographic signal .analysis is to distinguish between two major types of cartilage damage," said research team member Dr. C.B. Frank, an orthopaedic surgeon and chairman of the University of Calgary's Joint Injury and Diseases Research Group. "One type, meniscal pathology, is well treated surgically. But the second type, hyaline articular pathology is less well treated surgically and often a precursor to early secon- dary osteoarthritis," said Frank. At present, many people with joint problems are ex- amined with an ar- throscope - a fibre optic tube that allows a doctor to look inside the knee joint. However, it does involve minor surgery, with the at- tendant risk of post- operative infection - not to mention discomfort. Orthopaedic surgeons do use knee sounds to evaluate patients, but in a subjective way. someone with a loud noisy knee is more likely to undergo surgery than so- meone who doesn't. Vibroarthrographic signal analysis may decrease the need for in- vasive tests or diagnostic surgery and may be useful in monitoring joint func- tion, cartilage degradation and response to drug therapy. Thanks to an earlier society -funded grant, Dr. Frank and his colleagues have spent the last two years accumulating a large �-. -top 'k-ven year old Sancha earned top marks and a S10,0IM) grand prize for his owner.

Sancha - The Great Canadian Dog Sancha is a Samoyed. often called the breed ..with Christmas in its face" and considered by manv to be the most beautiful of all purebreds. A member of the Spitz family of dogs, the Samoved was discovered by fur traders in a remote area of Siberia. north of the Arctic circle. The breed is named for the nomadic tribe. the Samoyedes. who used the dogs to guard and drive caribou herds and as draft and sled dogs. But it is more than good looks and Arctic ancestry that make seven-vearold Sancha the winner in Ralston Purina's "Search for Great Canadian Dogs" contest. It is his good nature, generous disposi- tion and love of all things, that make Sancha deserv- ing of the title "The Great Canadian Dog" Sancha resides at home with his owners, Heather and Kirk Rees of St. John's, Newfoundland. Sancha ar- rived under the Christmas tree as an outgoing puppy, and has since matured into the proud guardian and companion to the Rees' two young sons. He is primarily a family pet who is well - liked by all who meet him. Heather Rees' winning essay, "Why I Love My Dog", read: "I love our dog because he has enriched our lives by helping us to enjoy simple pleasures and by bringing positive ex- periences to the lives of our children." "Interestingly enough, Sancha recently helped us learn about recycling. We combed his hair, spun it in- to wool and knit sweaters for our sons. This unique experience was a valuable lesson that our children will always remember each time they wear their special gift from Sancha." As the grand prize win- ner in Ralston Purina's "Search for Great Cana- dLan Dogs.. contest. Sancha receives $10,000, the 195a Great Canadian Dog medal. and a trip to Torow to with his family for a pro- fessional photography ses- sion.

SEWS POST Page 5 ncinerator For Waste Works In by Bob Watson A number of Scar- borough Council members went for a tour of the Ogden Martin Waste to Energy Facility -incinerator -in In- dianapolis, Indiana, while visiting that city for the 20th annual Peace Games. At the incinerator 2362 tons of municipal solid waste can be handled per day. In fact the facility operates 24 hours per day, seven days a week and 365 days per year. Started in December 1988 the Indianapolis Resource Recovery Facility pro- duces 4500 pounds of steam for each ton of solid waste processed. Steam is pur- chased by Indianapolis Power eft Light Company and is used to heat nearly all of the downtown business district, as well as local universities. To help offset operating and construction expenses. the city receives 90% of steam sales revenues. Plant operations also reduce the volume of solid waste by 90%, thus conser- ving rapidly diminishing Landfill capacity. In fad, in the first two and a half years of operation over 5.s mullion cublic yards of land- fill were preserved. With a m year operating contract. this statistic represents only a fraction of the enviroarxrttal sav- ings the facility will achieve over its Lifespan.

August 26, 1992 .Bill Watt' IN PRINT: As a congenital sensuist (look it up, all those of you who think we mean sen- sualist, which we also are. . .in moderate measure) we recommend the following two books for those of similar inclination. A Naturil History of the Senses (Random House) is written by the breathtak- ingly beautiful Diane Ackerman. The title seems simple enough, a scholarly dissertation on the five senses of the Animal and perhaps. Plant kingdoms which are sight, sound, scent, taste and touch. It's a dissertation right enough and, judging by the lady's obligatory research, scholarly in its own way. Yet, such is her consuming passion for the subject and her admirable way with words and turn of phrase, it becomes a sensuist's Pleasure to read. When Ms. Ackerman re- counts her rapture while tagging butterflies in a California eucalyptus grove, her descriptive skills are such as to conjure up and share her own pleasutr e - When reading of her love of aroma therapy, any man who is a matt subdues his tumescence only long enough to firm up his resolve to win this woman at all casts. When she discourses on the effects of music, one is inclined to share her belief that music might well be the esperanto of the uni%xse. These are just a few ex- amples from quite one of the most enjoyable books we have expenenced in a life time of reading. s Worlds A Natural History of the Senses is a rarity in the world of books in that it's informative at the same time as it's stimulating, in more ways than the in- tellectual. You'll enjoy it even if not a sensuist. But then, perhaps you are and didn't know. Peppers by Amal Naj is a deceptively simple title. We prefer the sub -title, A Story of Hot Pursuits. That's what it's really all about. Mr. Naj is a member of that world wide community that loves peppers and, usually. the hotter the bet- ter (with the exception of Hungarians, of course, and their preference for sickly paprika.

He points out the in- creasing medical evidence favouring medicinal use of peppers and their by pro- ducts.

ON STAGE: Coning to the Bayview Playhouse in November is the musical presentation And The World Goes 'Round celebrating the songs and music of Kander and Ebb. Outside of the theatre world, their's are not ex- actly household names but their music is recognizable and popular. Among the musicals written by composer John Kander and lyricist Fred Ebb are Chicago. Cabaret. Zorba, Flora the Red menace. which introduced a youthful Liza Minelli to Broadway and, of course. Kiss of the Spider Woman which has had a successful world premiere in Toronto before moving on to Lo i - don and eventually. Broad- way. Their better known songs include Cabaret.

Each of the five to be chosen must be able not on- ly to sing and dance but to twirl bates. hop an pianos. plunk banjo, ride shopping W intentionally and usual- ly end up doing fan kicks. Anyway, this Livent pro- duction promises to be every bit as good as the one on Broadway and is muchly to be anticipated. PARTV TIME: Wayne's World has been hugely successful in its depiction of suburban values. There's even a more than strong hint that its genesis was our former cable show Watt's World. What ever, there are many who think the humour of Wayne's World is more mocking than good taste is willing to accept. Your writer lived in subur- bia for many years- Guildwood actually, and quite enjoyed it. One of the many ex- periences we enjoyed were weekend house parties where one could dance to Three Dog Night and their .lay To The World. All of the foregoing is our rather convoluted way of advising that 7bree Dog Night is are caning to Stage West next Monday. Prices, as always, are reasonable and include Stage West's fine, four table buffet. Not the same as beer and pretzels in a wood panelled Scar- borough recreation room but. ob the memories. We forgive you Wayne's World and yes. you can keep the title. and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat will be available in stores in early September. By cast, we mean the one ap- pearing in the local Livent presentation at The Elgin. Donny Osmond and the en- tire ensemble including the combined children's choirs of Northern Explosion and the Bayview Glen Chorus are to be heard on the recording. It's to be available on both cassette and CD. Prices haven't been set yet but we suggest that what ever the cost, it'll be well worth it simply to hear the choirs alone. A few columns ago, we mentioned Childhood Favorites, a new series of classical music excerpts intended for very young children released by A.& M. We've now received the first six cassettes in the series and are most im- pressed. Haven't played all of them as yet but the three heard are just first rate and perfect for youngsters. Truth to tell, this oldster is of the opinion that many like him will find just as much pleasure.

We were quite taken by the correct pronunciation of Copland and Meyerbeer. Those two names can trip up even the best announcers. Among the many com- posers represented are Verdi, Tchaikowsky, Weber, Clarke, Bach, Mozart, Rossini, oh the list just goes on and on. If there is a single com- plaint to be made about these recordings, it's not of their excellence. It's rnerY- ly the fact that there are no notes advising the names of the orchestras and the con- ductors. It might well be that they were made especially for the series but we rather much doubt it. If they were, however, thea the musicians and conduc- tors should most assuredly receive some mention for excellence. The sound clarity is all that one should expect and particularly pig in the bigh strings. We think it's a great series. A contemporary of ours, a crochety one. has evert os ' 11+, that "it's too good for those little ones". It's not, of course, but the statement more than at- tests to its excellence.

Yet the fact is that most can industial boilers used to make products such as detergent are not ver% efficient: about one-fifth of the botkrs' heat goes right up the chimney. To eliminate wasted energy and cut iia energy bills, Toronto-based detergent -maker Lever Brothers Ltd. recently invested S510,0W in a new system that recovers waste heat from its boiler exhaust gases and transfers the heat to fresh water as it enters the boilers. To avoid the cor- rosion that has frequently plagued other heat recover' systems. Lever brothers adopted a two-stage process that minimizes condensation and utilizes corrosion -resistant equipment. The project received a grant of $100,%x% from the Mlnistry of Energy's Irdtatrial Equipment Demonstration Pro- gram. The program provides help to Industrial companies with Imtal demonstration protect, to prove the operational performance, energy impact and other benefits of the latest energy-efficient technologies, and to encourage other com- panies to adopt them. The newheat recovery system helped Lever Brothers cut its energv costs by close to $90.000 a year. And by significantly reducing the amount of natural gas the com- pany uses to heat its boiler water, the heat recover• system is helping Lever Brothers contribute to a cleaner environ- ment for everyone. rIJ:rA:`J.t�LRtt.Rt?J 1:S'�►}•. }111..x.{'I:.....:•! •.

ERR. -ITA: In an increasingly technological world, errors in print are becoming more prevalent and, for the most part, one can live with them. Stull, we must report that contrary to what appeared in a recent column, one ponders over the moral, not oral, turpitude of Angelo in Measure for Measure at Stratford. We are a reviewer, not a dental hygienist. Neither did we write the book Captain Morgan's Back in Town. We sug- gested the hook for the advertising slogan of the popular rum. Perhaps Cap- tain Morgan was confused with Captain Hook. And finally, Anything Goes from which You're The Top was quoted was written in 1934 not 1924. In- stead of referring to Cole Porter's broccoli, perhaps we should have mentioned an Irving Berlin tune from a 1932 show titled Face the Music. It was inspired by a Carl Rose, New Yorker magazine cartoon. In it a young mother tries to assure her recalcitrant daughter that "It's broccoli dear." The chill responds, -I say it's spinach. ..and the hell with it." Yes!

They wheel in, dump several tonnes of municipal waste, then go back for more. Staff at the site compact the municipal waste and bury it in layers. As the garbage decomposes it produces methane, which is the main ingredient in natural gas. Some landfill sites ignore the methan they produce, but this practice can lead to potentially explosive safety problems when the buried gas tries to escape to the surface. Other landfill sites simply burn off the unwanted methane, but this damages -the environment, adds to the greenhouse effect and wastes a potentially useful resource. At the Brock West landfill site, Eastern Power Developers have engineered a very practical - and pro- fitable - alternative. They collect the methane and use it to generate electricity, selling the power to Ontario Hydro under a long-term contract. The landfill gas recovery plant costs Sly million to build and produces 23 megawatts of reliable electric power, right around the clock. The com- pany received a grant of $3.4 million towards the capital costs of the facility from the Ontario Ministry of Energy, which assists industries and institutions with the capital costs of energy-efficient, environmentally sustainable energy facilities.

Scarborough West If you're 65 or older, receive home care or social assistance, or live in a long-term care facility, you should know about the changes to the Ontario Drug Benefit pro- gram, which helps pay for your medication. The changes are part of an effort to better manage health care resources while ensuring that vulnerable groups continue to be covered for essential medications. "We must manage this program better if we are to preserve drug benefits for seniors and other people who will need them for many years to come," said Health Minister Frances Lankin. The government spent over $1 billion last year on the pro- gram and costs have increased 18 percent a year for the last ten years. The changes will help reduce increased costs. The changes, which came into effect on Aug. 25, were recommended by the Drug Quality and Therapeutics Com- mittee, an expert group of doctors, pharmacists, and other professionals. "The committee believes that our recom- mendations are not likely to pose any undue hardship on the public and will contribute to a more rational use of the finite resources available for health care in the province," said Dr. Mitchell Levine, chairman of the committee. Of particular interest to seniors with chronic illnesses is that certain drugs used for long-term therapy will be prescribed in larger quantities, a change that will be more convenient for patients and more cost-effective for the Ministry of Health. The Drug Quality and Therapeutics Committee identified medieations used for treating common chronic conditions as suitable for this larger -quantity prescribing initiative - for example. drugs for high blood pressure, epilepsy and low thyroid function. At the present time, the average prescription for products like these provides only a 40 -day supply, even though most of the patients taking these medications have long-term conditions. Physicians will be encouraged to prescribe at least a 100 -day supply when renewing prescriptions for patients who have been stabihz- ed on the designated products. Twenty-five drugs have been added to the list of products covered by the program. such as Sinemet CR. anew pro- duct for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, and ?avirax >f00 mg. used for shingles. A number of over -thee -counter products such as an- tihistamines and sunscreens will no longer be covered. These products will still be available at reasonable prices, without prescription. Some prescription drugs have also been removed from coverage because of excessive price increases. In most cases, a less costly alternative is still available. Or your physician or pharmzacka may recommend another treat- ment without drugs. Seniors have raised concerns about the fact that many of them take too many drugs and this leads to other health problems. Studies have shown that Canada has ore of the highest rates of over -prescribing in the world. Last January, the Government of Ontano established the Drug Programs Reform Secretariat to review policies con- cerning medication use in Ontario. "V7timately, our objec- tive is to put in puce policies which prnmuote the most ra- tional use of medications and enstwe that access to necessary drug therapy rernam affordable for patients and taxpayers alike," says Mary Catherine Lindberg, who heads the Drug Programs Reform Secretariat.

Scarborough Agincourt Today's news of increasing plant closures makes a mockery of Bob Rae's promised economic recovery, said Liberal Treasury and Economic Critic Gerry Phillips. "These numbers make it obvious that there is no economic recovers- and the NDP government's so-called plan is not working," said Mr. Phillips, M.P.P. for Scarborough -Agincourt. Today's plant closure report from the Ministry of Labour showed that for the first seven months of 1992, 86 plants closed completely putting 11,540 employees out of work. As a result of plant closures, 31 percent more people were put out of work than for the same period in 1991, and 48 percent more than in 1990. The 86 plants closed to date in 1992 is 28 percent higher than for the same period in 1991, and 43 per- cent than in 1990. '"Mis government must get on with providing real jobs for real people instead of creating tension between business and labour with its Ontario Labour Relations Act amend- ments," said Mr. Phillips. "The NDP should spend less time marching ahead with its ideological agenda and more time addressing the real needs of Ontario's economy." Vllill./1- @ Grab on to the f oodtimes .ONj Wed.

He goes on to explain that comparative shopping should actually be based on cost per serving. Cost per serving takes into account the amount of bone and waste. Generally. boneless cuts have a lower cost per serving than bone -in cuts. For ex- ample, if a boneless rump roast costs twice as much per kilogram as a roasting chicken, the boneless rump is still the better buy. It will provide more than twice the number of servings. To cal- culate cost per serving, di- vide the price per kilogram by the number of servings the cut yields per kilogram. Meats can generally be cate- gorized into high, medium and low yields. Serving sizes range from a high of seven servings per kilogram for honeless roasts and steaks to a low of three servings per k.logram for whole chickens/ turkeys and ribs. The ac- companying chart is a handy guide to the number of cooked 100 gram (3-1/2 oz)servings per kilogram for various meats, fish and poultry.
