"Let's Get Together" is the Canadian Cancer Society's theme for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It is a call -to -action encour- aging women to edu- cate themselves with reliable, up-to-date information about breast health and to gather and share this information with the women they care about. This year's tour will stop in eight communi- ties and, in total, will feature four speakers. In addition to Stratford, the tour will stop in Goderich, Chatham, St. Thomas, Woodstock, Petrolia, Windsor and London. Through her presen- tation, "If you have cancer, you'd better like lasagna," Minns will speak of her per- sonal experience bat- tling breast cancer and how she used humour to help her cope.

I HAVE FOUND IT SOMETIMES LESS THAN APPEALING TO MAKE A RECIPE WITHOUT MEAT. I'VE BEEN AN EAT MEAT KIND OF PERSON FOR A LOT OF YEARS. BOTH RANDY AND I HAVE TRIED TO CUT BACK AND LEARN TO ENJOY MEATLESS MEALS. THE FOLLOWING RECIPE HAS EVOLVED FROM MY ORIGINAL CHILI TO MAKE A VERY INCREDIBLY GOOD AND SATISFYING MEAL. VEGETARIAN CHILI 2 onions, slithered 2 ribs celery, cut chunky 2-3 garlic cloves, minced 1 red pepper, cut chunky 1 green pepper, cut chunky (optional) 1 28 oz can diced tomatoes 14 or 19 oz can kidney beans rinsed 1 14 oz can baked beans 1 10 oz can tomato soup 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper 1-2 tsp chili powder Add together onions, celery, garlic and saute till limp. Add all other ingredients and simmer till pepper is soft, or transfer to slow cooker and leave on low for supper later in the day. This recipe is great with the chunky style. Adjust your seasonings if you like a hotter chili; you could even add an haberno-type pepper. Enjoy! rvi Capsule Comments by Ernie Miatello One of the questions we are frequently asked is "Can I take my calcium all as one dose?" Your body can absorb only so much calcium at one time so taking 500mg per dose is best and repeat it once or twice throughout the day depending on your needs. Ringworm is a contagious fungal infection of the skin. It's not caused by worms. It occurs most often in Jeople with weakened immune systems and those living in humic climates. Once diagnosed, it's easy to treat with fungal creams like Micatin, Canesten or Nizoral. Age-related macular degeneration (AMC)) is the most common cause of visual impairment and blindness in North America. Early diagnosis could help slow the progression of this disease of the retina. Symptoms include grayness, haziness or blind spot in the central area or visual distortions (broken or wavy [Ines) on the page when reading. See your doctor if you notice any of these symptoms. Don't stop your routinely prescribed medications without speaking to your doctor first. Sudden stopping of some drugs can trigger negative symptoms or worsening of the condition for which the drug was prescribed. Talk about it first.
