Storm topples tree on woman
By Jennifer
O'BRIEN and Kate
DUBINSKI, Free Press Reporters,
Fri., October 13, 2006
Filomena PALMEIRI shelters herself with a blanket from a howling
snow squall yesterday. She was watching her son's football team
from Mother Teresa high school battling the Saint Thomas Aquinas
high school team at Aquinas's field in London. (Dave
CHIDLEY,
The London Free Press)
Yesterday's unexpected snowsqualls and wind gusts broke a large
tree that fell on and seriously injured an elderly woman.
It was just one of many calls paramedics faced yesterday because
of slick roads and weather-related injuries.
The elderly woman was walking along Central Avenue near Wellington
Street when the tree fell.
"She sustained extensive internal injuries," said Middlesex-London
Emergency
Medical
Services duty manager Chris
DARBY.
"She was not trapped under the tree, but she was under a branch.
Paramedics were able to immobilize her and treat her before transporting
her" to hospital.
The woman was simply "in the wrong place at the wrong time,"
DARBY said.
Accidents occurred throughout the day, including one at Adelaide
and Oxford streets, where a vehicle crashed into a former bank
building, DARBY said.
The injuries in that crash were not serious.
A car crash southeast of London that claimed the life of a 27-year-old
Langton woman also was blamed on slick and snow-covered roads.
Norfolk County Ontario Provincial Police said the driver of a
minivan that slid into oncoming traffic on Concession Road 2
in the former Houghton Township near Tillsonburg died from her
injuries.
Jaclyn SZALKAI, 27, of Langton, was pronounced dead in a Tillsonburg
hospital after the 2 p.m. crash. Ontario Provincial Police said
snow and slush-covered roads contributed to the crash.
Another crash south of London sent a minivan driver to hospital
with minor injuries. The driver in that crash T-boned a dump
truck, which slid into the opposite lane of traffic.
The truck driver steered his vehicle back into the southbound
lane of Highbury Avenue near Westminster Drive and wasn't injured.
He was on his way home because he'd been told Highway 401 was
too slick to work on.
The fall blast of snow caused havoc elsewhere in London yesterday.
Blinded by the snow, University of Western Ontario students,
many in T-shirts, raced for the nearest cover.
The first squall dismayed students taking part in a Bike for
A.I.D.S. bike-athon outside Western's University Community Centre.
"Oh no, this was not supposed to happen," groaned organizer Samantha
ROBERTSON, holding an arm over her face to block the wind as
balloons danced behind her and jugs holding donations tipped
over.
"What the hell is going on?" shrieked a woman, head down as she
plowed through a white wall of snow.
"Um, Okay folks, we are just going to break for a few minutes
here and reassess the situation," announced the lead singer of
a band that had been playing on a stage.
While organizers did so, students ran in all directions, often
bumping into one another in the scramble.
But not even wintry weather could break the spirit of the 150 people
participating in the bike-athon, designed to raise money to buy
bikes for workers with African A.I.D.S. agencies.
"Well, I guess it's a tradition," Jackie
STRECKER said. "The
first year we ran it in April and it snowed, so this year we
moved it to October, and look at this."
Though the snow may have come as a surprise to most people, it
isn't really out of the ordinary, an Environment Canada meteorologist
said.
"This time of year, the air masses travel across the Great Lakes….
You're warm, then the next day you're cold. That's the way it
goes," Andre Cyr said.
Yesterday's snowsqualls came to southern Ontario after crossing
Lake Michigan and tossed about one centimetre of snow onto London.
That's far from the record, said Cyr, citing a 6.8-centimetre
dump on October 12, 1988.
Flurries are expected to return tonight when the low dips to
-2°C. Highs for the next few days will be in the high single
digits, well below the normal high for this time of year of 14.9°C.
Analynda MIELKE and Bill
CHERNIAK of University of Western Ontario's
Triathlon Club were at the bottom of a hill when the snow hit.
"It was really, really intense," said
MIELKE, her face wet.
Though wacky weather may have cut into on-site donations for
the event, organizers of the bikeathon still hoped to reach their
$10,000 goal,
STRECKER said. Each of 14 teams paid $200 to take
part and a charity party was planned for last night.
Last year the event raised $7,500, which bought about 32 bikes
to be sent to A.I.D.S. workers in Africa.

Marshmallow-stuffing contest at Ontario fair kills woman
Playing chubby bunny is 'like spraying Styrofoam' in esophagus,
paramedic says
By Joe FRIESEN,
Page A2
Janet RUDD was just being helpful when she agreed to take part
in what she thought was a bit of lighthearted fun -- a marshmallow-eating
contest known as chubby bunny at the Western Fair in London,
Ontario
It was a decision that led to her death, and many observers wonder
why this game, which killed a 12-year-old girl at an Illinois
school in 1999, is still being played.
Janet and her twin Jennifer, 32, were strolling at the fairgrounds
Tuesday evening when they were approached by a fair organizer
who needed two people for a contest.
The game calls for participants to stuff their mouths with marshmallows
until they can no longer say the words "chubby bunny." As more
marshmallows are added, the words become increasingly garbled,
which is meant to entertain the crowd.
Janet, described as a kind, gentle woman who liked to crochet
and lived with her parents, agreed to take part.
Jennifer declined, but watched her sister take the stage with
seven other contestants. She made it through the first round
with one marshmallow in her mouth. Jennifer then returned to
the horticultural booth where the twins were working as volunteers.
A few minutes later, after putting four marshmallows in her mouth,
Janet quit the contest and walked away from the stage. Fair officials
say she spat out a wad of thick, white goop before leaving, and
was 10 metres from the stage before she signalled for help.
She collapsed, unable to breathe. A crowd gathered around her.
First-aid workers tried to perform cardio-pulmonary resuscitation
and called an ambulance. The local ambulance service was on scene
within minutes, but couldn't revive her. According to Chris
DARBY,
duty manager for Thames ambulance, Janet went into cardiac arrest.
He says there was little the emergency services could do to help.
One of the most dangerous aspects of this contest, he said, is
that participants can laugh or cough when their mouths are crammed
with thick, melting marshmallows.
"You breathe in at the wrong time and you draw a huge airway
obstruction down into your airway that is essentially self-sealing,"
he said. "It's like spraying Styrofoam in there."
The coroner's office is investigating the incident.
The chubby bunny contest, which once ran alongside country-fair
staples such as the potato- and apple-peeling contests, has been
cancelled. Fair manager Dave
TAILOR/TAYLOR said it won't return next
year.
"It was programming that was unfortunate," Mr.
TAILOR/TAYLOR said. "I
would imagine we wouldn't be having that one again out of respect
for the family of the deceased."
Joseph Hageman, a pediatric intensive-care specialist in Evanston,
Illinois, who wrote a journal article about chubby bunny, is
surprised that it was played at a public fair.
"It's really not a game. It's incredibly dangerous. It's something
people shouldn't be doing," Doctor Hageman said.
Dr. Hageman's article was a response to the death of 12-year-old
Casey Fish, a Grade 6 student from the Chicago suburbs who died
after playing chubby bunny at school.
Casey's father, John Fish, has waged a long battle to alert people
to the dangers of the game.
"The game is insane," Mr. Fish said in a telephone interview.
"You have these esophagus-sized plugs and you're not allowed
to chew them or swallow them, but your saliva's acting on them
and making them slippery -- I mean it's inevitable that someone
is going to die."
Mr. Fish said he had been consoled by the fact he hadn't heard
of any other deaths related to chubby bunny, but was deeply sorry
to hear of Janet
RUDD's death.
"I did everything that I could to try and stop this game. I'm
very sorry for the loss of this woman and my heart goes out to
her family," he said.
"We appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show and she reran the segment
twice…. Two of those segments, she ended her show pointing at
the camera saying 'Don't play chubby bunny.' The American Academy
of Pediatrics also issued a nationwide alert against this game
after my daughter's death."
Mr. Fish sued the teacher, the school and the school district.
They agreed to a $2-million settlement.
The RUDD family hasn't yet decided whether to take legal action.
A funeral is planned for next week.

Howie enlisted in the Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve
in 1940 and served in both the Royal Canadian Navy and the British
Royal Navy for the duration of the war. He took part in the North
African Invasion, the Battle of the Atlantic, the Russian Murmansk
Run, and transported our Prisoners of War home from Hong Kong
after V-J Day; receiving his discharge in Vancouver in 1945.

Herbert Clifton
EBY of Feversham passed away in Grey Bruce Regional
Health Centre on January 7, 2006 in his 90th year.
Herb was born in Elsinor, Ontario on August 8, 1916, the son
of the late Gideon and Georgina
EBY. In 1926 the
EBY's left the
farm at Elsinor and moved to Feversham and purchased what was
to become known as "Eby's Store".
Herb aftended public and continuation school in Feversham and
in 1936 he married Madge
DAVIDSON.
The young couple resided in
the apartment above the family store and Herb worked for his
father. In 1937 their son Stephen was born and shortly thereafter,
Herb, Madge and baby moved to Barrie where he worked at a hardware
store and drove a taxi.
In 1946 they returned to Feversham to take over the general store
as the elder
EBY's moved to Walters Falls. In 1950 their daughter,
Sally May, was born. Herb purchased an insurance business from
Norman HARRIS and for the next 15 years he and Madge operated
the store and the insurance business.
Herb was an active member of many community organizations and
as many of his generation was involved in getting what is now
known as the "old community centre" established. He enjoyed many
years in the bowling league there. The church was an important
part of the
EBY's life and for 40 years Herb was an Elder at
Burns' Presbyterian Church in Feversham.
1986 was a landmark year for the
EBY's as they celebrated 40
years of operating the store, their 50th wedding anniversary
and made the decision to sell the store and retire to the home
they purchased in the village.
Left to mourn his passing are Madge, his wife of 69 years, son
Steve, daughter Sally, son-in-law John
HOOD, grand_son Kevin
HOOD,
sisters Marguerite
FORSYTH and Marion
DOBIE as well as many nieces,
nephews and Friends.
A funeral service was held in Burns Church on January 10, 2006
