Robin Dunbar, chair of the police
services board explained that it was
a case of OPP assuming the BMDB
was a municipal building and that
they were set to go. Dunbar
continued to explain that, along with
people being absent and council not
picking up the oversight in the police
services board meeting minutes, the
fact that it is a “municipal building
being run by members of the public”
was also a factor.
The parties are scheduled to meet

Apples linked to fighting cancer
(NC) - Prostate cancer: Researchers at Rochester, Minnesota’s Mayo Clinic report that quercetin, a plant-based nutrient
found most abundantly in apples, may provide a new method for preventing or treating prostate cancer. Researchers
found quercetin reduced or prevented the growth of human prostate cancer cells by blocking activity of androgen
hormones, in an in-vitro (laboratory) study. Previous studies had linked androgens to prostate cancer’s growth and
development. This is the first-known study to link apples with a major men’s health issue. (Source. Carcinogenesis, 2001,
22: 409-414)
Colon and liver cancer Researchers at Cornell University report phytonutrients in apples inhibited the growth of colon
cancer and liver cancer cells in-vitro. While the beneficial phytonutrients were most strongly concentrated in the apple
skin, the apple flesh.also contained significant levels of phytonutrients. According to the Cornell researchers, 100 grams
of an unpeeled fresh apple - about two thirds of a medium-sized apple - provides the total antioxidant activity of 1,500
milligrams of vitamin C. (Source: Nature, 2000, 405: 903-904)
Lung cancer Researchers at the University of Hawaii found increased consumption of quercetin was associated with a
reduced risk of lung cancer in their population-based, case-control study involving 600 lung cancer patients and 600
canCer-free persons. Researchers investigating a possible relationship between the consumption of flavonoids and lung
cancer risk found a statistically significant inverse association between lung cancer risk and intake of the flavonoid
quercetin, found primarily in apples and onions, and the flavonoid naringin, found in white grapefruit. No association was
found for important food sources of other flavonoids. This study validated similar findings published in 1997. (Source
