Nicola Tabb opened Better off Duds, a play off the 1980s clas-sic “Better off Dead”, in March, 2012. Many say it has the best vintage finds in the city. Better off Duds stands out from other thrift stores because it is care-fully cultivated, filled with one-of-a-kind clothing in a variety of sizes that are washed and dried in store. Tabb is a thrift store fanatic and has a knack for finding gems in small town thrift shops and church sales. She focuses on 1960s attire to current day fashions. If the clown from Scream or plastic vampire teeth aren’t what you’re looking for this Hal-loween, there is an affordable vintage Halloween rack and a trunk filled with $5 finds that could finish your costume. Bet-

ter off Duds is located at 510A 33rd Street West and is open Tuesday to Saturday from 11 a.m to 6 p.m.

LocaL aUTHoRS: Writers tell us what makes their book worth readingRead my book

For those who believe in the paranormal, it is natural to expect activity at the Western Devel-opment Museum (WDM), where personal items may still harbour a connection to their original owners. Ghost hunters, both amateur and profes-sional, have approached us about investigating paranormal activity. Some requests have been as simple as students looking for a Halloween fright. Others have come from groups possess-ing a full battery of gadgets to help find ghosts. The recent popularity of ghost-hunting pro-grams on television and movies, has increased the number of requests coming to the museum.

In 2009 we began to consider investigating some of the stories of paranormal activity that had been reported at our five locations. Our Saskatoon location was even on one website’s

list of Top Ten haunted locations in Saskatoon. What stories had put us on such a list? Museum staff had heard claims of paranormal activity but had not investigated to see if the rumours could be true. Making this Top Ten list inspired a look for paranormal investigators in Saska-toon who would be respectful of the institution and our artifacts while searching for evidence. It was important that the investigators came from a valid organization with a reputation for thoroughness. We found this in the Sask. Ghost-Hunters Society Inc. (SGHS). SGHS showed a keen respect for our mandate and brought a sci-entific approach to their work. SGHS relied on technology and specialized equipment designed to detect paranormal activity.

The paranormal project has given us a unique

opportunity to tell sto-ries in a different way. Our aim is not only to educate but to en-tertain the public we serve.

We are proud to release You Are Not Alone, a compilation of mysterious stories from three years of paranormal investi-gations. The book is available at all West-ern Development Museum locations in Saskatchewan.

The Empire Associates have Ter-rance Williamson’s mom to thank for their ability to practise every Monday night.

Williamson and his wife/band member Kelsi Kerestesh have a seven-month-old son, Lucian. Every Monday night Lucian has a date with grandma, and the couple has a date with their bandmates — bassist Josh Legendre and drummer Ryland Ludwig.

“His mom’s retired and she’s taken it upon herself to have almost a full-time job, as much as she can anyway, to get him over to her house,” says Kerestesh.

“She’s in her glory,” adds William-son.

“We can barely hold onto him,” Kerestesh jokes.

But it works out well for the band, which has been playing together for two years and recorded a debut al-bum, In Times of Trouble, last fall.

“I was pregnant when we were re-cording the last time, so we were ac-tually kind of wondering if he was hearing some of it,” says Kerestesh, who sings and sometimes plays mandolin in the four-piece.

The Empire Associates had their CD release show at Regina’s The Club in January, when Kerestesh was seven months pregnant.

“I was worried about standing in front of everybody and just toppling over. (The stage) was just one step but you never know,” she says.

Luckily, having a baby hasn’t slowed them down. With the help of an agent, the band is getting all kinds of gigs.

“I think if we wanted to make it full-time, we could, but right now I think we’re just going to see where this goes,” says Williamson, the band’s guitarist and sole songwriter.

“A lot of songs are about when my wife lived in Ireland for a year — we were just dating at the time ... But a good number of songs are about the friends and family we have lost in

our life,” he says. But there’s not much time to

write, between his job as an accoun-tant at SGI and raising a baby.

“He’s a new dad. Where does he find the time? I don’t know,” says Kerestesh.

“Funny, now that I don’t have much time to write is when I’ve written most of my songs,” adds Williamson, who named his band to reflect the style of their music: “empire” for old and “associate” for new.

“Basically we are taking an old genre and mixing in our own mod-ern or new flavour,” explains Wil-liamson, whose influences include Mumford & Sons, The National, The Beatles, Bob Dylan and The Wooden Sky.

The band plans to record again in February and has several Re-gina shows coming up: Oct. 27 at the Creative City Centre, Nov. 10 at the Fainting Goat, Nov. 21 at Bush-wakker, and two December gigs in Moose Jaw. Terrance Williamson and Kelsi Kerestesh of The Empire Associates. phOTO submiTTed

on the cover ’To take something and transform it com-pletely into something else is pretty cool.

— Tamsen Rae

Kevin Greggain takes a photo of Tamsen Rae’s makeup process for his Gypsy Fortune teller Zombie concept shoot with Carlene Haday. bridges phOTO by Michelle berg

By Jeanette Stewart

Most people don’t get to spend an en-tire Friday afternoon turning some-one into a zombie.

Tamsen Rae is not most people.

The Saskatoon makeup artist has an ability to create both glamorous and ghoulish looks.

“Since I was a little kid, I’ve always loved to experiment with makeup and playing dress-up,” she said. “To take something and transform it completely into something else is

pretty cool.This Halloween, Rae is the queen

of the undead, tasked with zombify-ing about 10 different clients.

“Everybody’s being a zombie,” she said. TV’s The Walking Dead can take a lot of credit for that. On a Friday afternoon a few weeks before Hallow-

een, she’s working on a zombie photo shoot with photographer Kevin Greg-gain. Greggain has worked with Rae since finding her work on Facebook. He’s hoping to capitalize on the pub-lic thirst for zombie culture with his latest series of photos, which will be turned into a calendar and prints.

He chats about Rae’s skills while she works in her home studio, metal music emanating from laptop speak-ers. Rae spent about three hours to build up the model’s cheekbones and eyebrows then cover her in a grey pallor and several layers of fake blood.

# H a l l o w e e n

Tamsen Rae will zombify you


She can do wedding makeup as beautiful as you can think it, and she can turn that same person into a mutated, bloated corpse. — Kevin Greggain’

“She’s pretty well the only person I’ve met — and I’ve been doing this for 30 years — that has that edge. That leading edge. She can do wed-ding makeup as beautiful as you can think it, and she can turn that same person into a mu-tated, bloated corpse,” said Greggain.

Rae did makeup for years before she realized it could become a profession.

“I guess I’ve kind of always done makeup,” she said.

Her work began more than 10 years ago in high school with weddings and graduations — making people look good.

Rae began getting more involved with fash-ion shows and concept photography a few years ago. From there, it evolved into creating characters.

“There’s something really appealing about transforming yourself. It’s one thing to make a girl who maybe never wears makeup and do some really nice makeup on her and have her look in the mirror,” she said. “It’s the total re-verse taking this normal looking person and just making them look disgusting. That is way more exciting for anyone, I think, just to see

what they look like as a rotting corpse.”About a year ago, Rae’s first bottle of liquid

latex turned her on to creating more fantasti-cal and freakish forms.

“I’ve been loving it. I haven’t really put it down.”

Last Halloween, she and a friend were de-termined to win a local bar’s costume contest. She decked him out in elaborate makeup with ghoulish skin and finger extensions. When she got to the bar, however, the bouncers demanded her friend take off his mask. The makeup was too good.

“We couldn’t prove who he was,” she said. But they talked their way in and won the con-test.

Rae is typically so focused on helping her friends and clients prepare for Halloween that she doesn’t get a chance to put as much effort into her own costumes. But she typically es-chews the stereotypical “sexy” style for hor-ror.

“For me, the coolest costumes are the scari-est,” she said.

Tamsen Rae puts the finishing touches on the Gypsy Fortune Teller Zombie, Carlene Haday. bridges phOTO by michelle bergContinued on Page 8

“In this book, Doug Snowsell shares his story - from a boyhood

largely devoid of spiritual direction, to a career in banking, to

responding to the call of Jesus Christ to “follow him.” Doug’s story

will inspire and instruct you. It is well worth reading and sharing with

others - especially those who are still searching for relationships that

give meaning and purpose to life.”

— Preston Manning

“Having been a missionary myself in Latin America, I was always

looking for new recruits. Doug and Ann (Snowsell) were two of the

older group of students at the College in whom I saw good potential.

I encouraged them toward missions. I called these couples who were

over thirty, “the young geriatrics.” I was pleased to see our Mission

make room for these older, mature couples. It’s amazing what God can

do through an ordinary couple who simply makes themselves available

to The Lord of the Harvest.”

—Arnold Cook, retired denominational leader of the Christian and Missionary

Alliance in Canada

“In the heart of every human being there is a longing to be intimately known and intimately loved--thelonging for relationship. Out true life stories--not the ones we sometimes fabricate to impress others--arelargely the stories of our search to satisfy these longings. In this book, Doug Snowsell shares his story--from a boyhood largely devoid of spiritual direction, to a career in banking, to responding to the call ofJesus Christ to “follow him”. Doug’s experience in that the longing for relationship is ultimately satisfiedin a personal relationship with God through Jesus--a relationship which in turn transforms our personallives, our vocations, and our relations with others. It is an old, old story-yet one that is infinitely variedand fresh when told by someone who has actually lived it. Doug’s story will inspire and instruct you. It iswell worth reading and sharing with others--especially those who are still searching for relationships thatgive meaning and purpose to life.”-Preston Manning

Douglas Snowsell was born and raised in Kelowna B.C and is part of a third generation orchardist family.After the death of his father he left farming and, almost inadvertently, became a successful banker. At age34, he took an unexpected turn and entered a Bible seminary. After he successfully graduated he and hiswife Ann took their young family to South America and began a second career in ministry.During his sixteen-year career as a missionary for the Christian & Missionary Alliance, Doug Snowsellpioneered a modern approach to urban Latin church growth, first in Santiago, Chile and later Madrid,Spain. Douglas Snowsell lives in Victoria, B.C., where he is still involved in growth, although principally ofthe vegetable variety.

It’s the total reverse taking this normal looking person and just making them look disgusting. That is way more exciting for anyone, I think, just to see what they look like as a rotting corpse. — Rae’

Rae has looked into studying makeup at different schools, but with tuition more than $30,000 and all the information avail-able online, she’s been able to teach herself any technique she’s curious about.

“I just educate myself. It’s something that I’m really passionate about. I dedicate a lot of time to training myself,” she said. “I watch a lot of YouTube tutorials. I read a lot. I try. It’s a lot of trial and error and playing around.”

Rae’s portfolio already includes one chal-lenging short film (Ogilthorpe, shot in Hum-boldt), and she hopes to move to a city with more film work. She plans to relocate to a larger centre like Montreal, where there is more work available in the horror genre.

Greggain believes her work is on par with top level artists in bigger centres.

“In the U.S., I worked in New York a lot,” he said. “Tamsen’s work is up there, if not better than anything I saw.”

For now, she’s focused on creating some frightening zombies to celebrate Hallow-een. The look can be simple, or take almost six hours.

“It’s fun makeup to do. It’s really fun, you can’t really screw up,” she said. ”

Rae recommends hitting dance stores or Halloween stores for supplies and waiting until Nov. 1 to stock up on deals for next year.

She can be found online through Face-book under “Tamsen Rae Makeup Artist.”

The zombie guideKevin Greggain recommends his “zombie essentials”:

Next week: How did you and your spouse decide how many children to have?

Email [email protected]

“A cute, wittle elephant.” — Taron Cochrane

“Pirates for the family. I’m making mine & the hubs’ (steampunk styles) but snapped up a steal for the boy’s.” — Tiffany Wolf

“Megamunch.” — Jess Paul

“A penguin and a pumpkin.” — Jennifer Zaplitny Rathwell

“My six-year-old son is wearing a Spider-Man costume. My four-year-old daughter is wearing a Little Mermaid costume.” — Dee B. “My daughter will be wearing a Big Bird costume and my son will be wearing a Winnie the Pooh/Tigger costume this year for Halloween.” — An-jlee Bansal

“My daughter is wearing a cute ladybug costume that is a hand-me-down from her older cousin. She’s excited to wear it! My son is also wearing a hand-me-down from his cousin, a cute fuzzy monkey.” — Chera Miller

“My eight-year-old boy is a zombie and six-year-old girl is going to be a dancer.” — Jason F.

“Will be up in the air until whatever event occurs: dance class, school, school dance and trick or treating will all be different. She has a lot of dress up clothes and ideas of her own even at five. Favourites so far will be princesses, or a bat.” — Angie Douville

“Since we are huge Halloween fans, we do a couple of costumes! For the kids Halloween pic-ture I send out, my daughter will be an electric guitar and her big brother will be a rock star. As for trick-or-treating she will be a shark and he will be Bumblebee the Transformer. The trick-or-treating costumes are much warmer!” — Alysia Czmuchalek

“My kids are certainly aware of Halloween, but as a family we choose not to participate because we believe the negatives associated with it outweigh the positives. Instead, we go out for a family night (swimming, bowling, minigolf, or a

movie etc.) and have an awesome time without crowds.” — Angela Wells

“Bumblebee and skunk.” — Angela O.

“Depending on mood, time of day, most recent TV or movie watched and conversations with other kids, the costumes have not been nar-rowed down to any one thing. The decision will probably be made the day before and will be dependent upon what’s available!” — Carla Contreras “My seven-year-old is going to be a devil and my four-year-old is going to be a witch.” — Kim Hambleton “My six-year-old has decided to be a witch, Hello Kitty, Batman and any other variety of characters … who knows what Halloween will actually bring! My eight-year-old is an avid Rider fan and will be a Rider cheer girl all the way!” — Terri Leniuk

“An evil pumpkin head.” — Jill Smith

“My eight-year-old is a zombie from Walking Dead, my seven-year-old is Harry Potter and my youngest son (aged five) is Altair from Assassins Creed.” — Adele Bandet

By Erl Svendsen

As long as the ground’s not frozen or covered in snow, the garden season is not over yet. So there’s still time (but not a lot) to take care of a few last-minute chores to get your yard and garden ready, and save yourself some time next spring.

1. Rake leaves and fallen fRuit

Don’t give mold, mildew and other pathogens a chance to take hold on your lawn. Rake up all leaves, fallen crabapples and other fruit, and anything else that will trap moisture or rot. These will make an excel-lent addition to your compost bin.

2. Mow lawnMow your lawn one last

time, but leave it longer than you would normally to help it

survive the winter in better condition. You can also use your mower to suck up leaves if you don’t want to use a rake.

3. Cut baCk peRennialsIf you do this now, there’s

less chance of damaging early succulent spring growth. In my garden it‘s the ornamen-tal grasses that start grow-ing, sometimes before even the snow is completely gone. But it’s a balancing act. Some perennials benefit from being left intact as the dead aboveg-round plant material acts as a protective layer against low temperatures. It can also trap an insulating snow layer.

4. MulCh gaRdenOrganic mulch breaks down

over time. Mulch performs a number of functions including protecting the root zone from our ultra-low prairie winter

temperatures. Those leaves you picked up with your lawn mower make excellent mulch.

5. wateR tRees and shRubs

This is especially important for your evergreens like spruce and cedars. Even though they don’t grow in winter, they are still respiring and require wa-ter throughout the fall, winter and spring. Deciduous trees and shrubs also benefit from a deep drink, providing a spring reservoir to draw from when they start to grow again.

6. RototillGet your vegetable garden

and new planting beds ready now. This is an excellent time to add compost, manure, ground up leaves, etc. to enrich the soil. But do not add diseased plant material to your garden. Blighted tomatoes, plants with mildew, insect-infested plants

and the like will only perpetu-ate these problems.

7. plant bulbsIt’s getting pretty late to be

planting bulbs, but there are likely some good deals by now. Take a chance and you’ll be rewarded with early spring colour.

8. tuRn off outside wateR/blow out

spRinkleRs/dRain hosesWater has the unique prop-

erty of expanding as it be-comes a solid. And while this characteristic means that ice floats and gives us ponds to skate on in winter, it also means that water filled pipes will burst when that water freezes. The $40 it costs to blow out sprinklers is well worth the investment considering the potential effort and cost to repair and replace pipes and hoses or clean up after a flood.

9. winteRize MoweR/RototilleR/ pRessuRe

washeRThere are two approaches

to winterizing gas-powered equipment. (A) Drain the gas. Or (B), fill the tank and add fuel stabilizer according to la-bel instructions. In fact always use fuel stabilizer when you fill the jerry can to prevent the fuel from breaking down even dur-ing the summer. If you have a pressure washer, you will need to drain any water in the lines. You can buy a can of pressur-ized air to blow out the lines. This is also a good time to give any gas-powered equipment an oil change, replace air filters, get blades sharpened, refill the string in our lawn edger, etc.

10. Clean/shaRpen toolsClean your hand tools and

sharpen shovels, hoes, prun-ers, etc. before putting them away for the year. You can give

them a light wipe with mineral oil to prevent rust.

11. Clean gutteRsGutters are a great water

distribution system. But they are also excellent leaf collec-tors which impede their abil-ity to handle water. Now that most of the leaves have fallen and before the bitter cold hits, get out and remove the trapped leaves. You’ll thank yourself the next time it rains.

12. get out the snow shovel

Climate change will never give us a tropical prairie win-ter. You’ll have to get on a plane and go elsewhere in February to have one of those.

THESTARPHOENIX.COM/BRIDGES 1 3THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2012

By Jeanette Stewart

Tracene Harvey is the curator at the University of Saskatchewan’s Museum of Antiquities.

The small museum is located in the Peter MacKinnon Building (formerly the College Building), and hosts a trove of ancient arti-facts.

One of these artifacts may har-bour some paranormal energy from the time of ancient Egypt.

“There’s been a few odd things. We haven’t seen anything or cap-tured anything on camera yet,” said Harvey.

She takes Bridges to see the artifact, a small example of an Egyptian “false door,” which was believed to allow spirits to pass from one world to the next.

Q: What is the purpose of a false door? A: It’s a really fun artifact to take into consideration, especially when we’re thinking about Hal-loween because, of course, Hal-loween is all about mummies. The interesting thing about the false door is that many Egyp-tian tombs were designed with this false door in place in some part of the tomb. They come in a variety of sizes. Ours is a fairly small one. The British Museum has ones that are 15 or 20 feet high. They don’t function like a physical door, but it was a portal, according to the Egyptians, be-tween the realm of the living and the afterlife world of the dead. In Egyptian popular belief, when you die you more or less kept go-ing as you would in your every day life while you were alive. They believed the false door functioned so that your spirit could pass back and forth freely between the land of the living and the land of the dead. There were different levels of spiritual existence, but on the most basic level they believed that you were able to go back and forth.

A spooky artifact plays havoc on museum curators


Where to go: The University of Saskatchewan’s Muse-um of Antiquities is located in the Peter MacKinnon Build-

ing (formerly the College Building).

Q: What is the history of this particular door?A: Our false door belonged to a woman named Irti. She was a priestess of the Egyptian God-dess Hathor. Hathor was a bovine goddess, so she’s often depicted as a cow. Irti obviously had an important place in society as a priest-ess of this goddess. The date of the false door is 2,200 B.C., so the artifact is over 4,000 years old.

Q: Where did it come from?A: We don’t have the original archaeological context for it. It most certainly came from Egypt, but where precisely we’re not sure. It was donated to the museum in the late 1990s by a private collector of antiquities. In order to preserve the false door he wanted it to be in a place where it would be safe and cared for by professionals.

Q: How did you become aware the object might be haunted? A: At first it was a funny “haha” thing, where

if I had a file or something that went missing, you’d blame it on the false door. There’s been a few really odd things, like stuff moving in the case. There are certain cases that have such fragile objects volunteers are not allowed in those cases without permission. There’s been the odd thing that’s moved and there’s been no clear explanation of it. There could most def-initely be explanations or causes, but there’s the odd thing that just seems weird. Well, we do have a portal to the other world here at the museum. Maybe that’s got something to do with it. And it’s fun, especially around Hal-loween time. The students have a great time with that.

Q: How did you determine it was the haunted item?A: Just because of the reputation behind false doors. We know what they were for, we know what the Egyptians believed about them, that they were a spiritual portal. It’s kind of a fun thing to think about and imagine. What if?

An eerie gathering is objecting re-cent cuts to arts and culture fund-ing in a performance event perfectly suited for Halloween.

Ghosts of the Arts: Saskatchewan is planned for Tuesday, Oct. 30 in both Regina and Saskatoon. Orga-nizers are hoping to raise awareness about the negative impacts cuts to arts funding brings.

Event attendees are asked to wear a white sheet or shroud to the silent protest. The white sheet symbolizes a blank canvas, a shroud of death and of loss, according to event orga-nizer Sarah Abbott.

“The white sheet hides diversity and diversity could be lost with cuts to the arts. We all really value diver-sity.”

After the provincial budget was an-nounced in March, many in the prov-ince’s arts community were outraged at the cuts made to culture spending.

“Keeping the (Saskatchewan) ad-vantage will be hard for the artists, arts organizations and cultural/cre-ative industries given the budget de-livered today,” stated a March press release from the Saskatchewan Arts Alliance.

The Saskatchewan Film Employ-ment Tax Credit Program was ter-minated, meaning Saskatchewan is the only province in Canada without such a program. The negative effect on the film industry has been wide spread, with many involved in pro-tests and letter writing campaigns.

The Saskatchewan Arts Board al-location in the provincial budget re-mained unchanged at $6.433 million. According to the Saskatchewan Arts Alliance, given increases in the cost of living, this amounts to a decrease.

“This puts significant pressure on the arts sector to meet its increasing obligations and stifles growth.”

Abbott says these cuts are trou-bling for everyone in Saskatchewan. Ghosts of the Arts came from envi-sioning a society without the arts. It’s one she says would be vacant and de-

pressing. She hopes that message is clear in the Ghosts of the Arts event.

“Having us all look the same shows a lack of creativity. And that’s what we’re showing — what would happen if we lost the arts.”

People in both cities are asked to meet at City Hall at 7 p.m., dressed for the weather under white sheets.

A prayer and smudge will begin the Regina event, after which the ‘ghosts’ will float around City Hall, down Albert Street and to the Leg-islative Building. In Saskatoon, the route will wind through downtown, to the Remai Arts Centre and end with a discussion at Collective Cof-fee on 20th Street West. About 150

people have joined the event on Face-book and Abbott expects many more will attend.

Katrina German is attending Sas-katoon’s Ghosts of the Arts walk and says the arts play an important part in any thriving society. German is the president of Lifetime Produc-tions, a television, film and online

media company. She’s participated in several events protesting cuts to the film tax credit in Saskatchewan.

“Participating in events like the Ghosts of the Arts and other conver-sations sends a clear message that we value a vibrant lifestyle in Sas-katchewan, for ourselves and for our children,” she says.

Ghosts of the Arts: Saskatchewan is a silent event planned as a protest against recent cuts to arts and culture funding in the province. suppLied phOTO

Lack of arts funding a scary situation


CITY NEWS

By Edna Manning

For a group of Saskatoon art-ists, relationships are just as important as the paintings they make. The 17 members of the Saskatoon Painters Club all agree that their weekly painting sessions help to inspire and motivate, while learning new techniques. They’re excited to be celebrat-ing their 20th anniversary with a show and sale on Oct. 26 to Oct 28. Preparation for this show is a year-long endea-vour for full time and drop-in members. Christine Devrome, president of the club, says the annual show is the highlight of their year.

“We love what we do and it’s a treat for us to share our work and see how others re-spond to our creations. The community gets to come to an art show and it’s a treat for us to meet the people who come to see our works. Of course it is an added bo-nus when they also buy our paintings.”

Four of the founding mem-bers of the Saskatoon Paint-er’s Club are still active in the group. Grace Boyle, Linda Popkin, Gert Hunker and Helen Bouthillette met in 1991 and organized their first show and sale in 1992. Boyle had been taking classes at the Uni-versity of Saskatchewan and wanted to paint more often than just during class time. Her professor suggested she start a painting group.

Today the weekly painting sessions, held from September until April, continue to pro-vide numerous benefits for the 17-member group.

“It’s nice to be able to share ideas, experiences, how we gather information, how we use our mediums, and learn

different styles and tech-niques.

“The group, in a sense, is like a catalyst to a lot of new move-ments. Historically, when you think of how new movements in art began — they started with people getting together and talking about their genres, styles, techniques, and want-ing to know how to improve and promote their work,” says Devrome.

Member Vicki Chapman says her membership enables her to be included in shows at various locations in the com-munity.

“Some of the other mem-

bers help me tremendously — hanging my work (I work full time), and organizing vari-ous shows. Being part of the group also helps me to stay focused. I would never have evolved as a painter without them.”

The Saskatoon Painters make up an eclectic group in terms of genre and styles using mostly watercolour, acrylic and collage.

“That’s the beauty of the group — if somebody is good in a specific area, the others will gather around, learn and try something they might not have considered otherwise.

Having a sense of variety and trying something new is good for the soul,” adds Devrome.

Members of the group show their work at a number of venues throughout the city. Some of the upcoming venues for 2012 — 2013 include the Parkridge Centre, Mystic Java, Edwards School of Business, Raymond James Ltd., Meewa-sin Valley Centre and Calories Bakery and Restaurant.

Whether it is art, music, writing or the performing

arts, pursuing one’s passion is essential for a balanced and healthy life.

“It keeps us excited about life and thrilled about trying new things. I paint because I must — it is part of my be-ing,” says Devrome.

Work from all the members will be on display at the show and sale. Styles range from impressionist and realism to abstract. Expect to see works depicting agricultural and historical themes, spiritual

impressions of nature, florals, still lifes and winter scenes.

The Saskatoon Painters Club 20th Anniversary Show and Sale will be held at the Grace Westminster United Church Auditorium at 505-10th Street East, Oct. 26 from 7 to 9 p.m., Oct. 27 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Oct. 28 from noon to 4 p.m. Admission is free. For more information, contact Christine Devrome at 373-9296 or email [email protected].

Saskatoon Painters Club celebrates 20 years


By Jenn Sharp Julian Nahachewsky broke his back about four years ago but didn’t let the injury slow him down. The 22-year-old has competed in races around the world with a wheelchair built for speed. He says he was honoured to place in the top 50. With his impressive skills and inspir-ing attitude we’re not sur-prised at his success. He’s now pursuing triathlons and

was happy to tell us what moves him.

Q: Describe your ride:A: This is a wheelchair racer. It’s different from my hand cycle because there’s no gears. You’re kneeling in it and your legs pop out the back. You push on the rims and wear special gloves to pro-tect your hands because it would destroy your hands. Biking in this is the equiva-lent of going for a run.

Q: How long have you owned it?A: About three and a half years.

Q: When did you get into racing?A: Almost as soon as I left the hospital. Two days after (leav-ing) I joined a race club.

Q: What do you love about it?A: I like the training part of it and staying fit. I like the free-dom it gives you. It’s made for

disabled people. The way it’s set up — you feel like you’re having a good workout.

Q: So it’s a good workout?A: Ya for sure! Especially for your arms, chest and abs.

Q: Where do you go in it?A: I always go down Highway 16 east (outside Saskatoon).

Q: Do you get nervous on the highway? Do you wear reflective gear?

A: (He laughs) I don’t wear reflective stuff — I should. I wear a helmet. I’ve been out there for three years.

Q: Have you had any close calls?A: Actually just recently some person almost smoked me! It was honestly like three metres from me.

Q: What kind of events have you raced in?A: I’ve raced internationally

in the 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1,500 metre (events) and up to a half marathon. I did a triath-lon with it too. I used my hand cycle for the biking portion and this for the running — that’s the way it will be done in the 2016 Paralympics. In my triathlons I did pretty good for my first time. I had a time that was decent enough to compete at Worlds, which was kinda crazy. I didn’t expect that to happen. Now I’m going to focus strictly on triathlons.

WHO? Pat Molloy, a lifelong lover of Halloween.

WHAT? The Halloween scene at his home in northwest Regina’s Normanview neighbourhood.

WHEN? Molloy and his family — wife Cheryl, daughters Caitlyn, 22, and Emily, 11, and sons Tristin, 19, and Conor, 14 — moved into this house in 2000, which is about the time he started decorating. Then three years ago, he really got serious about it.

WHY? “I have a creative need that I have to fulfil and I’ve always been that way. I’ve always built weird things and I’ve always tinkered with electronics and electrical,” Molloy explains. “This just gives me an outlet where I can do it all.” To begin with, Molloy used store-bought props, but “I was just not impressed with what I was seeing in the stores.” Further, “it got to the point where just putting stuff on the lawn wasn’t enough. It had no cohesion.”

HOW? A web search led him to some online forums for people who build their own Halloween props. He followed their lead and three years ago, Molloy developed a vision for his front yard Halloween scene. The backstory goes as follows: The wife of an arrogant young doc-tor named Dr. Chard fell ill. When his modern medicine failed to save her, he sought help from three witches, the Weirding sisters. Even though they had some very powerful magic, they couldn’t help her. Chard stole their magic and in doing so, “he kind of created a portal that shouldn’t have been created and here it is.” Molloy built the fence out of wood and grey PVC conduit.

Front yard takes a spooky turn in October

Spaces celebrates beauty both indoors and out. If you have a living space we should highlight email [email protected]


The tombstones are made of rigid foam insula-tion. The gate posts are hollow and inside one is the “nerve centre for the yard” — a picaxe micro controller that runs the motorized props. The gar-goyles on top of the gate posts are made of pop bottles and papier-mache and have the capabil-ity of blowing smoke out of their mouths. There are five pneumatic (startle) props, five motor-driven props and several static props, in-cluding the three witches, Dr. Chard and the bride’s coffin. The extension cords run in bunches to keep as clean an environment as possible, because “I will be in here, my son will be in here, I’ve got a couple of buddies who help out” scaring visitors. The whole scene takes two full days to set up.

Molloy loves seeing the reactions to his Hal-loween scene. “We have had tears. I haven’t had anybody wet their pants yet. ... People love to be scared; it’s why horror movies are as big as they are.” The proof is in the numbers. Most of Molloy’s neighbours get about 25 kids, but “we get about 250 and we get that many or more adults as well on Halloween night, plus all the nights leading up to it. There’s a constant parade of cars that come through here.” To put that traffic to good use, this year Mol-loy is asking visitors to bring a cash donation for Hope’s Home or a non-perishable food item for the Regina Food Bank.

By Andrew Matte

To properly celebrate this futuristic costume, we must look into the past.

Ashley Martin, the creative re-porter whose work usually graces the fashion page in QC in Regina and Bridges in Saskatoon, agreed to resurrect her fashion-conscious cos-tume from 2011.

If there were an Olympics for Hal-loween costume design, Martin’s sil-very Cyborg Cigarette Girl from the Future would win gold, if not only for its merits as a piece of fashion, but for its originality.

Martin’s first idea was to some-how transform herself as an “alien or robot or something.”

She set off to Lowe’s in Regina for inspiration and found herself in an aisle full of appliance accessories, including aluminum ducts and oth-er silver bits and pieces.

“I found this one little piece that looked like a cigarette girl hat … that’s when I thought ‘cyborg ciga-rette girl,’” said Martin, adding she still isn’t sure of the real purpose of her makeshift hat.

“I think it’s something you put under your washing machine, but I’m not sure.”

The rest of the costume was eas-ier, especially since it meant she could apply paint to her face, one of Martin’s favourite Halloween initia-tives.

“I have this weird compulsion to want to paint myself on Halloween. Some people want to dress sexy. I just want to paint myself.”

As for her dress, she made it her-self using shiny material purchased from Globe Fabrics in Regina. “It’s pretty rough. I am not a great seam-stress. But it works pretty good as a Halloween costume.”

There’s more to Cyborg Cigarette

Girl than her clothes — she sells cig-arettes, after all.

The outfit comes with a tray full of cigarette packages with com-pany logos made using Photoshop with similarly creative names like Martian Marlboro and Player’s Ro-bot Cut. There’s also a version of the du Maurier brand, but there’s a bilingual component — the name appears in English and in a made-up alien language. Cigarettes are rather expensive in the future, as you might guess.

The Cyborg Cigarette Girl from the Future made two public appear-ances last year including the 2011 Halloween party at Crave, as well as at a show by Toronto indie band Zeus at the Exchange.

This year, Martin plans to resur-rect her costume of the secretary from the movie Beetlejuice.

“I don’t normally like repeating costumes year after year ... but (this) was one I did when I was 20, so I think enough time has gone by.”

Other unique costumes Martin has developed include a leprechaun — with a painted green face, of course — and the victim of a meat-clever attack to her head, which was made with the help of her father when she was in Grade 7, a getup that earned her an award for best costume.

As she ventures out this Hallow-een, she scoffs at suggestions that Halloween should only be celebrated by children.

“I think the love of dressing up isn’t just for kids. I think you can be a grown up and still like getting dressed up in costumes,” she said. “In my real life, I am never going to be a cyborg cigarette girl. I am never going to be an undead receptionist … I guess it’s about having the chance to become somebody you’re not.”

Natashia Gagnon’s Lesser Siren named Snakearm swims and slithers around his tank in Saskatoon. bridges phOTO by michelle berg

Natashia Gagnon is a true animal lover.

With two tiny dogs and two aquariums full of sea crea-tures, she’s got her hands full. But the Saskatoon styl-ist has one treasured pet, her Lesser Siren, an eel-like aquatic salamander named Snakearm that rules the tank, and sometimes the liv-ing room — he’s escaped on a few occasions.

Q: What is Snakearm?A: Snakearm is a Lesser Siren. Siren means mer-maid.

Q: How did you end up getting him?A: I got him a few years ago. He was just at Petland. He was in a big aquarium with a bunch of them, but they were puny. He was as thick as a pencil.

Q: What attracted you to him?A: The coolness. I always like freaks of nature pets. Weird pets. Instead of the most beautiful fish I always like the weirdos. He was dif-ferent.

Q: Was that your first aquarium project?A: I worked up to that. He was in a smaller aquarium. I didn’t realize how big he was going to get. I got him and he kept getting bigger and big-ger and eating all my other fish. He couldn’t even lay out all the way. I had to buy him this massive tank.

Q: Does he have to be alone?A: He actually has one other buddy in there. He’s called a glass fish. He’s nothing special. I had a whole little

school of them in there. I got them at the same time as Snakearm and he ate all the other glass fish. For some reason these guys have a bond. He ate all the other glass fish, but he wont eat this guy. They have some type of deal.

Q: How long do they live?A: They can live 24 years. I’m stuck with him until I’m 50.

Q: How does having fish compare to having dogs?A: You have to know a lot. You have to keep the water at the right temperature. You have to keep your tank refilled all the time and have the right amount of chem-icals and test your water, otherwise you’re going to kill everything. It’s less work but really it’s not that much less work. You still have to feed them almost every day, you just don’t have to walk them.

Q: Was he expensive?A: Snakearm was only 20 or 30 bucks. I’ve had some other guys that were more than that. That he ate.

Q: Do you have any tips for keeping aquarium creatures?A: Keep your aquarium clean but not too clean. Make sure their aquariums are the right size for them, otherwise they’re not going to be happy. Snakearm is so happy in this tank because he can just dive around.

Q: What are people’s reactions to him?A: Girls always scream and think he’s disgusting. Guys think he’s really cool and want to touch him.

A cycle of soul searching begins with the sun’s transit into Scorpio turning the en-ergy inward. With this kind of excavation, the treasure isn’t always glistening like jewels and gold. You may not even realize you’ve hit on something valuable until years later. The quest for meaning becomes a reward in and of itself.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll add new skills to your bag. Keep in mind that negativity has a disorienting effect on your learning pro-cess and choose teachers who radiate a positive attitude. You need to be encouraged. One or two nice comments aren’t nearly enough. Find the generous spirits who will give you more.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Adults, amused by youth’s idealistic point of view, like to ask children what they want to be when they grow

up. Ask the same question of yourself and you might be surprised by your answer. This week shows you as wide-eyed and hopeful as you were many years ago.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s much you can learn on the Internet, but it’s the organization and application of information that will move you forward. An accumula-tion of facts is not the same thing as knowledge. This week you’ll get the hands-on experience you’ve needed to make a training process complete.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). People usually don’t have an excellent awareness of their attitude, but you’re differ-ent from most. You know what you want to project and measure it against what you are projecting. You make conscious adjustments if nec-essary to ensure that you’re radiating the mood of your

choosing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). While you love being so much in the flow of life that you don’t have to think about how you’re doing, it doesn’t always work that way. Objectivity is necessary for your growth. A bit of self-consciousness can be terrific. It reminds you to pull your shoulders back and watch how people treat you differ-ently.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). We live in a culture of labelling and diagnosing. Does every-thing have to have a name? This week you’ll be dealing with a situation that truly is hard to categorize, and it will be a waste of time to try. When you accept the way things are without calling it anything, you’ll respond to “what is” instead of “what it’s named.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It takes an evolved and self-sufficient person to give the gift of freedom to others.

You truly want to see your loved ones happy, so this is easy for you this week. You’ll show your love by encourag-ing a loved one to pursue an individual path that may or may not include you. This will come back to you in a positive way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What happens won’t matter nearly as much as who is involved. Make people your priority — not activities, money or productivity. This will be a challenge as the sun shifts into your sign and it’s a challenge to take seriously. Your work will always be there, but the people around you will change and grow and move.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Beware of the person who never seems to make mistakes. This is in no way a good sign, as it indicates a tendency to cover up or a resistance to risk. For hap-piness and success, strive to be around real people who

openly discuss mistakes and invite others to help them come up with solutions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are a touchstone in the lives of others. There’s no need to drum up extra excite-ment or do anything other than what comes naturally. Loved ones appreciate you for who you are: A solid, con-sistent person. They count on you to behave in the same way with the same attitude day after day.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). With an open mind, you could be the one to come up with a brilliant solution to whatever ails people. You’ll have to re-ject convention, though. Also, don’t believe what you hear, especially if it’s the same thing you’ve been hearing for years now. Times are differ-ent and you’re different, too.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The routine that used to support your productivity is no longer effective. You feel driven to establish a new

way of working that makes sense in your current life. In all things ask, “What is the purpose?” With this question as a guiding principle, you will quickly figure out what needs to change.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: Usually wary of circumstanc-es beyond your control, this year you’ll be more laid back and ready for the thrill of adventure. Your open attitude leads to greater spiritual awareness. Your talents will be recognized next month, though you have no need of the validation. A private goal to improve will be your driving force. You’ll make an important decision in Decem-ber and you won’t look back. There will be a financial bonus in March. May brings the happy resolution of an ongoing conflict.

SHARP EATS See a food trend you think deserves a highlight in Bridges?

Email [email protected] or visit Bridges on Facebook

By Jenn Sharp

Halloween is not the time to be serving five-course dinners replete with wine pairings. All Hallow’s Eve calls for fin-ger food — and the more dis-gusting the better.

One of my earliest Hallow-een foodie memories was go-ing through the haunted house at my elementary school. Cre-ative teachers had turned the school’s computer lab into a maze of dark tunnels and cos-tumed ghouls were ready to pounce at every turn.

I hate being scared and practically ran, screaming, through the whole thing. Then I got to the end where a table full of culinary cre-ations awaited. In the dim red lighting, a bowl full of peeled grapes easily stimulated eye balls in my impressionable young mind. A pasta dish was made to look like intestines. Jell-O felt like brains and finger-shaped cookies with al-mond fingernails were enough to make my skin crawl. Bloody body parts, beakers of strange green liquid, bowls of worms, all manners of creepy crawl-ies — the list goes on. I was fascinated! It was then that I realized the power of food and presentation.

The trick to successfully serving disgusting Halloween food is to keep the lights low and to use lots of food colour-ing (something I would never recommend at any other time of year. On Halloween any-thing goes.)

If you want to add some healthy food into the mix, peeled grapes are great, as are livers made from water-melon, bones from peeled cel-ery sticks and cold spaghetti “worms.” As any great chef will tell you, presentation is

half the battle, so serve it on a platter with your favourite Halloween props — fake eyes, ears or a bloody hand. It all adds to the illusion.

And you can’t forget clas-sic sugar cookies decorated as black cats, pumpkins, witches and the like. Monster or haystack cookies can eas-ily become spiders too. Use whipped cream and chocolate chips to make little ghosts. Try making graves by filling small cups with chocolate pud-ding. Top with Oreo crumbs, a candy worm and a tombstone shaped cookie that reads R.I.P. Last but not least — my all-time Halloween favourite is popcorn balls. Use candy corn to make a jack-o’-lantern face.

If you’re serving dinner at your Halloween party pick a dish with barbecue sauce. Add a substantial amount of red food colouring to give it a blood-infused glow. Try serv-ing it with green mashed po-tatoes on the side.

Renaming dishes is a fun way to get your kids involved. Kids are all about gross-out humour and they may sur-prise you with their interpre-tation of your Halloween dish (bat poop beans was a recent one I heard.)

You can always go the tra-ditional route at your Hallow-een party as well with a fall theme. Anything with pump-kin or squash, cinnamon and nutmeg goes. Try roasted pumpkin seeds with sea salt, butternut squash soup or pumpkin cheesecake.

Whether you’re hosting a Halloween party for kids or adults, people will always re-member how much fun they had. So if your food falls short, no worries. You’ve still got your scary personality right?

Sugar cookies topped with red icing and almond “nails” are sure to shock guests. FiLe phOTO

Gross-out Halloween party treats

One of my fall favourites is butternut squash. This recipe comes from Renee Kohlman and her delicious Sweet Sug-ar Bean blog (sweetsugarbean.com). If you’re hosting a dinner party in the near future, this soup is a guaranteed impres-sive first course. Or just make it for your family on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

INGREDIENTS:1 large butternut squash, peeled and chopped2 tbsp. canola oil1 large onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced1-2 heaping tbsp. Indian curry paste, mild or hot (I like Patak’s best)1 L chicken stock (or veggie stock)1 398 ml can coconut milk2 tbsp. maple syrup2 tbsp. fresh lime juicesalt, pepper

METHOD:1. In a large soup pot, heat the oil. Add the onion and saute a few minutes. 2. Add the squash and garlic (and a few carrots, chopped, if you like). Cook a

couple more minutes. 3. Add the curry paste and stir for about two more minutes. Add the stock, just to cover the veg. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until squash tender. 4. Remove from heat and using an immer-sion blender, puree soup until smooth. 5. Put back on heat and add the coco-nut milk, maple syrup and lime juice. Add salt and pepper, and adjust season-ings. If too thick, add more stock. Soup freezes very well, and is even better the next day.

Curried Butternut Squash Soup with Coconut Milk


WINE World

Crossword/Sudoku answers

By James Romanow

You will often hear cork dorks talk about New World versus Old World wine styles. The differ-ences are primarily fruit and texture. Modern drinkers fell in love with the very ripe fruit style of red wines introduced 20 years ago by Californian and Australian winemakers. Some Europeans decried the new style preferring the higher acidity and leaner style of the tradi-tional wines. Other Europeans jumped on the trend with both feet.

Hotter climates in Europe were better suited to this style. They could produce ripe wines without much effort and their drinkers expect-ed something not too different anyway.

Spain is in the middle of this battle. Newer appellations like Jumilla have gravitated to-ward this ultra-ripe style of wine, while some of the older vineyards like Rioja are still work-ing out what is best. Luzon is a vintner that is whole heartedly modern in style. Their vine-yards are fairly high, and their Altos vineyard is located over 600 metres above sea level. Al-titude matters when you have a hot climate, because quick cooling evenings result in a brighter, more acidic wine.

Altos is unique in the Luzon lineup in that it depends on Monastrell (aka Mouvedre) as the primary varietal. This is a grape that makes rich, thick, meaty wines with a great structure. Luzon has blended Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo to add refinement to the muscular Monastrell.

The result is a tremendous wine, much big-ger than the price tag would indicate. It will suit serious red drinkers to the end of the eve-ning. If you’re looking for a beef eaters’ wine look no further. Monastrell will take on a por-terhouse with hollandaise without blinking.

Altos de Luzon, Jumilla, Spain, 2007. $26.90 *****
