lbert and Sia Mackoty have never seen or talked to little Obediah, but he is part of them.

On Saturday, they leave for Sierra Leone, Africa to begin the process of bringing the three-year-old boy back to Abbotsford. There’s a better life for him here, where he can go to school and have clean drinking water and plenty of food.

He already feels like their son.

Sia did not have an opportunity to contact her mom, dad and younger sister, Isata, who lived 300 miles away from Freetown, to let them know what was happening.

She and her cousin first stayed at a refugee camp and then rented a place of their own before they received word that Highland Community Church in Abbotsford was willing to sponsor them.

They moved in December 1998.

TTT

Albert and his uncle stayed behind.

TTT They did not want to abandon their Sia was 13 and Albert was 18 in 1996, property in Freetown, where family when they were both part of the same members would reunite during safe church youth group in Freetown, the periods. capital of Sierra Leone in West Africa.

The rebels blocked off the only road Albert cradled his two-month-old sister leading to and from Freetown. Kids in his arms as he raced through the stopped going to school, food became scarce, and fear and uncertainty hung in home yelling, “Let’s go! Let’s go! They’re coming!” the air.

The soldiers set their home on fire as Sia’s cousin, who worked for a church they fled, and bombs exploded around organization, was invited to leave the them. They ran as far and as fast as they country by boat with a group of missioncould. aries with whom she had been working.

They decided to wait for help, hiding in the bushes during the day and sleeping in nearby bombed-out homes at night.

One day, about two weeks later, a 14-year-old boy was caught by the rebels.

The citizens watched from the hills as the soldiers chopped off the teen’s hand.

Albert convinced his dad that they had to leave and head for the west.

“If we stay, they are going to kill us,” his dad agreed.

During their long trek, they came across Nigerian troops who helped them cross to the west, where they found safety.

TTT The civil war ended in 2002, and Albert was studying accounting at a community college in Freetown when he came across Sia’s uncle and received word that she was alive and well in Canada. Her family had also survived and was back in their village.

The pair reunited via email, through which Sia confided in Albert about how much she missed her family in Sierra Leone and her struggles adapting to a new culture. It brought her comfort to know somebody cared, and the two communicated often.

In 2003, Sia wrote to Albert to tell him she was coming to Sierra Leone for a visit, and then she made a bold pronouncement: “We should get married.”

About 300 guests attended the wedding in Freetown on Dec. 18, 2003.

Dual robbery links probed 5 meters Incidents in Mission and Abbotsford Wednesday Abbotsford News

Police are investigating whether two robberies Wednesday morning – one in Mission and one in Abbotsford – are related.

The first took place in Mission at about 6:40 a.m., when a man brandishing a firearm demanded cash from an employee at the Mac’s Convenience Store on Seventh Avenue. He then fled in a vehicle.

The second robbery occurred at

about 7:30 a.m., when a man carrying a real or replica handgun demanded money from a worker at a convenience store in the 1500 block of McCallum Road near King Road, and fled in a green car.

Abbotsford Police found an abandoned Jeep Cherokee – believed to be associated with the robbery – on McCallum near Farmer Road.

Officers, including a K9 unit, tracked a man to a field, but he was determined to be on the U.S. side of the border and

was arrested by American authorities.

He was turned back over to Abbotsford Police later that day.

Jorden Leland-Weaver, 18, from Surrey has been charged with robbery, wearing a disguise, and using an imitation firearm.

MacDonald said police believe a second person was involved, and they are continuing to investigate.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Mission RCMP at 604-826-7161 or the Abbotsford Police at 604-859-5225.

Drugs: ‘High stakes gamble’ Police release second poster in Operation X series Abbotsford Police have released the second poster in their Operation X series, which is aimed at informing young people about the risks of using street drugs.

The poster, like all in the series, will be displayed on the walls of Abbotsford high schools and in public places such as recreation centres and bus stop benches.

The newest creation depicts several brightly coloured pills beside stacks of poker chips with the statement, “High stakes gamble. This

is one bet not worth taking.”

Const.

Ian MacDonald said the intention is to demonstrate that people

who use street drugs are gambling with their lives.

“Street drugs are comprised of unknown ingredients

and are of unknown potency which can, therefore, cause unknown effects to your health.”

MacDonald said

Operation X focuses on decision-making and choices, rather than stating that something is “bad” and shouldn’t be done. He said the Abbotsford Police Department has received strong support for the program, especially from local families whose loved ones have died from ecstasy use.

“Our hope is that these posters and the stories told by those brave families will generate discussions with youth about street drugs,” he said.

More Punjabi-speaking officers for Abby police Goal is to eventually reach 15 per cent of force Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

The Abbotsford Police Department has set a goal of ensuring that half of any officers hired in the future speak Punjabi or Hindi.

Const. Ian MacDonald said currently only six per cent of the department is made up of officers of South Asian descent, but in order to better reflect the community, that number should be around 15 or 16 per cent.

In order to get there over time, the

target has been set for 50 per cent until the numbers are reached.

“It’s the best-case scenario. It’s what we’re aiming for,” MacDonald said.

“It’s a balance between ensuring we have the best candidate and looking for the best skills.”

He said language barriers can sometimes cause issues for officers in a community that has a relatively high non-English-speaking population.

In such circumstances, a translator might have to be called in, causing delays in the investigation.

MacDonald said it only makes sense to have a police force that is representative of the makeup of the city.

Stats released at a recent meeting of the Abbotsford Police Board indicate that of the city’s 230 officers, 14 (six per cent) are South Asian, five (two per cent) are aboriginal, five are Asian, two (one per cent) are black, and one (.5 per cent) is Hispanic.

As well, 41 (18 per cent) are female, compared to the provincial average of 21.2 per cent and the national average of 19.1 per cent.

Sentencing hearing for Bacon and Scott A judge has ruled that Wayne Scott of Abbotsford was not entrapped by police during an undercover investigation that resulted in his conviction for conspiracy to traffic cocaine.

The ruling was made Wednesday in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, where a hearing was conducted into Scott’s claims that he should not have been found guilty in the case.

No entrapment: Judge Scott was charged with Jarrod Bacon in November 2009, following an investigation by the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit in Abbotsford. Much of the case was based on wiretap evidence gathered by a police agent, who was a friend of Scott’s.

Reminder to Dog Owners

Road Condition Update

The City of Abbotsford’s Dog Licence Bylaw requires all dogs over the age of four months, to be licensed. Licensing your dog shows that you are a responsible pet owner and greatly increases the chance of having your pet returned to you, should it get loose. Licence fees support the return of lost dogs to their homes and helps provide new homes for others. They also help offset the cost of providing animal control services such as dealing with dangerous dogs, resolving barking dog complaints and enforcing leash laws.

Flaggers will be controlling trafÂżc at the Vye Road railway crossing Monday to Friday, 8am to 4pm until further notice.

Please ensure that your dog’s licence is up to date and that it wears its tag at all times. To purchase a dog licence, come to City Hall, 32315 South Fraser Way - Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, except statutory holidays.

City representatives will soon be visiting Abbotsford neighbourhoods, checking for unlicensed dogs. If you have any questions regarding animal control, please contact Animal Control at 604-856-7505.

was able to join his wife in Abbotsford in January 2007. He continued with his studies in accounting, while Sia worked as a cook in a seniors’ care home.

One day they received word that Isata was pregnant. Sia was disappointed, because her sister – four years younger – was not married and she was in the midst of going to school, but Sia supported her as best.

Obediah Albert was born March 29, 2009, and Isata chose his middle name in honour of her brother-in-law.

Sia’s and Albert’s first child – Emmah – was born almost a year later, on March 20, 2010, and son Anthony followed on Sept. 29, 2011. They missed their families, but their life felt

TTT Sia was devastated to received a phone call at the end of February, informing her that Isata had died from malaria and typhoid, leaving her young son an orphan. She had not told anyone who the father was, and he had not been involved in Obediah’s life.

Sia’s mother has since taken over his care, but she does not have the financial means to support him. The village where she lives has no schools or running water. Sia and Albert send her money to help out, but they are concerned about their nephew’s welfare.

“He won’t have a good future if he stays there,” Sia said.

The couple, who have never

even seen a picture of Obediah or spoken with him, are determined to bring him to Abbotsford. Two local churches – Highland Community and Trinity Christian Reformed – have fundraised to help with the thousands of dollars in travel and legal costs.

The pair leave Saturday and return at the end of May. They hope Obediah will be with them.

“It will be great. He will love it,” Albert said.

Fundraising from the two churches has not fully covered all the costs associated with Sia and Albert becoming Obediah’s legal guardians. Donations may be made at Trinity Christian Reformed Church (3215 Trethewey Street) Tuesdays to Fridays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Business hit by email scam The owner of Hemingway’s Books in downtown Abbotsford wants people to know that an email using his name and stating that he has been mugged in Manila is fraudulent.

The email from the store’s email account indicates that David Kyle was hit on the back of his neck with a pistol, and his cash, credit cards and cellphone were taken while on a trip to the Philippines.

“I’m financially strapped right now and need your help,” the message states.

A request for $2,000 in U.S. funds is made, with a promise that the money will be refunded later.

The email asks the recipient to respond to the message for advice on how to transfer the funds. The note is signed “David.”

Const. Ian MacDonald said Abbotsford Police do not receive many complaints about scam emails, but he advised people to be cautious whenever a money request is made online.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Teachers vote

Do Fraser Valley byelection results foreshadow an NDP provincial election win?

Maybe the rest of us should throw up our hands and stop volunteering as well. Do private sector workers quit doing volunteer work with the disabled, community policing, coaching hockey, etc. when we don’t get the raises we want?

Jon Wolbers

To answer, go to abbynews.com

OMG! They’ve got some nerve those teachers, imagine, wanting to be able to negotiate a contract instead of being legislated back to work, what do they think this province is, a democracy?

AJ Garnett

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Is a regional partnership between Abbotsford and Langley worth pursuing?

Dear BCTF, your actions make it increasingly difficult to believe that your goals are to improve the learning environment for kids. It appears increasingly, that you are more focused on furthering the selfish interests of your organization. You ought to encourage more independent thinking among your members – they may actually come up with some creative solutions to the challenges they face in their classrooms without having to dig deeper into our pockets.

Dana Lajeunesse

YOU RESPONDED:

YES: 63% NO: 37%

Putting faces to the crooks and cranks Andrew

Holota

On Point You’d never guess by looking at their faces.

Young, fresh, pretty.

One wears a decidedly impish expression – the other has a tinge of toughness in her eyes.

Their hair looks recently salon-cut.

Both about 15 years old, they lean together for a photograph. Two friends out having fun.

Both have a middle finger extended to the camera. Oh...

Among the countless photos on countless Facebook sites, there’s plenty of bird flipping by teens.

It’s all about the attitude …

Except in this case, the gesture is reflective of something much darker.

These girls, along with a third, are accused of beating a 30-year-old man so badly during an early-morning melee at Mill Lake Park that he had to

be airlifted to hospital. According to police, had the assault continued, the victim could have died.

In what is becoming increasingly common in the news business, it’s a race to get a news story online before Facebook is buzzing – most often with misinformation.

But frequently, mixed in with the rumour and confusion and conjecture, are bits and pieces of fact.

In this case, one didn’t have to be a seasoned police investigator to develop a list of suspects.

Thanks to Facebook, all three girls were named less than 24 hours after the incident, in numerous online comments. Some of them were even posted by friends, with links to the suspects’ Facebook sites, complete with photos. I guess that’s why they call it “Face” book.

Some of the posters probably didn’t realize their exchange had found its way into the public domain. Maybe they didn’t care.

In the Facebook world, there are profound variations on the meaning of the terms “friend” and “like” – as many users, especially youngsters,

come to discover.

And so have the police. Social media is a powerful investigative tool.

Last week, a homeowner caught a crook on a video camera mounted in his garage. The guy made three trips to haul out tools – and took a leak on the floor on the last visit.

In the Facebook world, there are profound variations on the terms “friend” and “like.’

The owner posted the video on YouTube, and gave it to the police and the media. We couldn’t run it without obscuring the identity of the thief, who looked to be 17 or younger. As such, he’d be protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Publicly identifying him would be a federal offence.

The users of Facebook and YouTube play by different rules. The leaky bandit was “outed” in mere days. As

it turned out, he is indeed a young offender. Off-limits to us – fair game for social media, which can be a very cold, harshly judgmental world. In this case, it was entirely deserved. But as many media outlets have experienced with anonymous commenting, the kangaroo court of invisible voices can be way over the top.

On that note, Facebook has been a major boon. The Black Press decision to require our online commenters to have bonafide Facebook accounts was initially met with much derision and criticism, most of it from the anonymous trolls who could no longer snipe from the shadows.

Predictions of rampant Facebook fraud and the exodus of commenters proved baseless.

As we find them, Facebook fakes are blocked. Commenting on our sites remains robust – and most importantly, for the vast part, it’s civil and on point.

Facebook and other similar social media have a host of downsides.

However, there are two examples of positive impact – unless of course, you happen to be a crook, or a crank.

Abbotsford News Friday, April 27, 2012

letters Hockey team not the issue It is clear from Shelley Patterson’s letter (All so much fun) that she fails to understand that the Heat are not the issue, merely evidence of city hall’s financial mismanagement and flawed priorities.

I really don’t care enough about the Heat as an organization to be either negative or positive about them. On the other hand, I am intensely negative about city council using taxpayer dollars to pay yearly, multi-million dollar subsidies to the Heat.

So it is with the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Complex building. I am neither positive nor negative about the building itself.

Carelessness and arrogance cost the taxpayers of Abbotsford millions of dollars from provincial or federal government funding.

When citizens dared to suggest that council needed to line up funding from senior levels of

government before plans were finalized, council told the citizens to run along and let those who “knew what they were doing” handle the matter.

City council does not have $50,000 to build a handicapped accessible playground; it does not have money to make city sidewalks navigable to citizens in wheelchairs so they do not have to wheel along on the roads of Abbotsford; it does not have the money to paint lines on the roads that would be visible in the rain or do other road work needed to make driving, walking and cycling safer in Abbotsford.

But when it comes to ego projects, the city has millions of dollars a year to squander to subsidize the millions of dollars the Heat lose, and millions more to subsidize the losses of operating the AESC for the Heat.

James W. Breckenridge

Dangerous rush-rush world I am writing this letter about an ever-increasing disrespect to pedestrians in electronically controlled crosswalks.

These are not a new invention.

They have pedestrian safety in mind. But while using them I have been cursed at, swerved around and not seen at all.

Mission seems to have the greatest offenders.

Do we need crosswalk cameras as well?

The appropriate action for motorists is to depress the black brake pedal, which is located next to their gas pedal. It’s in the same position in all cars.

I will hurry and get out of your path, after all, it is a rush-rush world.

Literacy on wheels eye-catching paint job, enhanced audio donated by Clarion, two laptop computers with internet connectivity, XBox Kinect games and an assortment of other gadgets.

Abbotsford’s 360 Fabrication donated $20,000 worth of design and equipment, from a 36-inch LCD screen installation to a car horn.

Miller said they will give away books, use the computer system to sign up new library users, promote computer skills and literacy skills, and even clear up library fines.

In the work she has done in her role, she has found that fines stop borrowers for years.

“That’s a big obstacle to the library, and I can take care of fines,” she said.

She and LiLi are out to dismantle stereotypes about libraries, librarians and library users.

For more information contact libarylive@fvrl.bc.ca.

With music booming out of their modern re-think of the traditional “bookmobile,” and a snack bar featuring a cake shaped like a 2012 Nissan Cube, the Fraser Valley Regional Library unveiled its latest program, Library Live and on Tour, in Abbotsford on Wednesday morning.

Smitty Miller, the FVRL community development librarian, described how she will drive the vehicle that inspired the cake around the library region – an area that stretches from North Delta to Boston Bar – promoting adult literacy. With the mobile library she plans to connect with community members in seniors homes, transition houses, soup kitchens and other non-traditional places.

“I want to reach people who don’t think of, or normally go to, the library,” she said.

City plans Arbour Day program Abbotsford Parks, Recreation and Culture is celebrating Arbour Day with a one-day event (May 11) at Ellwood Park/Fishtrap Creek.

A Vancouver resident has been identified as the woman found floating in the Fraser River west of the Mission Bridge Monday afternoon.

The B.C. Coroner’s Service said Carolyn Boaks, 58, was reported missing to the Vancouver Police Department April 21, and was last seen alive in Hope April 22.

An autopsy ruled out foul play.

Mission RCMP Sgt. Miriam Dickson said Monday that two Abbotsford men out on the water reported seeing a body in the river, and after meeting Mounties at the Mission boat launch, took the officers out to the site.

Pioneer family history

Was your family one of the pioneers of the Abbotsford area? If so, the MSA Museum Society would like to hear from you.

Together with the MSA Pioneer Association, the museum has begun collecting accounts of and by families that settled in the Matsqui, Sumas and Abbotsford areas between 1890 and 1950. The collection will be published in book form in the spring of 2013. “We’re excited to begin work on this project,� said Dorothy Van der Ree, executive director of the Museum Society. “It provides an ideal

Anticipating that much of the material will come from interviews, the Museum Society has recruited trained volunteers who will visit individuals in their homes and record their stories. “All anyone has to do is talk – tell their story.

We’ll do the rest,� said Van der Ree. “Of course we’d also love to include any photos, letters, or other memorabilia – anything that helps tell the story of a family during this time.�

Anyone interested in arranging for an interview or contributing to this project in any way should contact the MSA Museum Society at 604-853-0313 or by email at msamuseum@ shawbiz.ca.

Victims of violence share their stories They are names that make headlines for a short while. Then they recede, perhaps to only appear again for a 30-second sound bite if an arrest or subsequent trial ever takes place.

They are the victims of violent crime. Often, they are the parents, siblings, or best friends of a murder victim, or of somebody who was killed in a tragic but preventable incident.

After the headlines they are left alone in their grief; expected to heal, forgive, and repair broken hearts. And this is where community agencies and volunteers that address the impacts of crime come in.

On Friday the University of the Fraser Valley and the John Howard Society of the Fraser Valley are hosting a forum where family members of two murdered women will speak about their lives before and after the tragedies that forever changed them.

“How do we heal from a traumatic event? What could be more traumatic than the murder of a loved one?” queries Maggie Aronoff, executive director of the John Howard Society. “On this night, our community will have the opportunity to hear two stories of healing. One family lost their daughter. Another lost his mom.”

Heather and Dan Basham will share the story of their daughter’s murder in May of 2001. It was a double tragedy for the couple, because Tracy was murdered by her brother.

The second speaker will be Christopher Ducharme, who will tell the story of his mother’s homicide.

The forum is a free event and will be held on the Abbotsford campus in the lecture theatre, room B101.

It begins at 6 p.m. For more details about the forum, contact the John Howard Society of the Fraser Valley at 604-852-1226.

Rosacea QUESTION: I have a lot of redness and fine bumps on my cheeks, nose and chin and have been told that I have ‘Rosacea’. What is Rosacea and how can I treat it?

- Allison, Mission

ANSWER: Rosacea is an acneic like facial skin disorder that is often mistaken for a simple complexion problem or sunburn. Left untreated, the redness becomes more permanent and tiny blood vessels may become more visible. Bumps and pimples often develop and in advance cases especially in men, the nose (rhinophyma) may become bumpy, red and swollen from excess tissue.

Some of the most common triggers of rosacea include sun exposure, stress, hot or cold weather, alcohol and spicy foods to name a few.

Although there is no cure for rosacea it can be managed to minimize the symptoms. Management treatments may include topical prescriptions, IPL laser treatments, appropriate skincare, recognizing and managing your rosacea triggers. Daily sun protection is essential.

Back alleys don’t recycle unwanted electronics Environmental

Consumers and businesses in British Columbia have an environmentally sound recycling option.You can drop off a range of acceptable products at designated Collection Sites throughout the province without charge (see “Acceptable Products” list for details).

The Electronics Products Recycling Association (EPRA) is a national, not-for-profit extended producer responsibility program. EPRA has contracted Encorp Pacific (Canada) to deliver the stewardship program under the Return-It™ Electronics brand in BC. The program works to recover and recycle all regulated electronics in a responsible, cost effective manner.

The Return-It system also ensures BC’s unwanted electronics are collected and recycled in an environmentally and socially responsible manner by using the Recycler Qualification Program (RQP).

Since 2007, the EPRA program, previously run by ESABC, has diverted over 70.6 million kilograms of electronics out of BC landfills and illegal export, while recovering precious metals and other materials for use in future products.

How Electronics are Recycled: Electronics collected in BC are sent to approved recyclers in North America. The items are broken down using various manual and mechanical processes. The remaining products are separated into their individual components for recovery.

Through a variety of refining and smelting processes, the

His diminutive stature caused North American pro teams to overlook him when he wrapped up his junior career with the WHL’s Kootenay Ice in 2010, and he spent last season in the German second division with the Hamburg Freezers.

A solid season overseas led to an AHL contract with the Heat last fall, and Sylvester won the team’s rookie of the year award after posting 15 goals and 19 assists in 64 regular-sea-

“For a guy of that stature to do what he does at this level, it gives a lot of players and a lot of people in life hope,” Ward said of Sylvester, who has excelled in recent weeks on the Heat’s top line with Krys Kolanos and Paul Byron.

Tired of the Rough & Tumble?

We have invited them into our homes. We have provided for them warm places to sleep, safe places to live, playmates for them to romp with and jobs to keep them busy. Our gifts to them pale in comparison though, to what they have given back to us. Unabashed and boundless love are what we receive from this bargain. When we look down into those adorable eyes we know we can depend on their support, their patience and affection. They are our pets. They are the innocent animals we share our lives with who, every day, teach us the meaning of forgiveness and compassion.

You know the look. The one where your heart melts and you can’t help but give in to their simple wants; a scratch behind the ear, a walk about the neighbourhood or just a little treat because they are who they are. This look is also one of trust and innocence. Our pets trust us explicitly. We are the Alphas of their world and we must make sure that our decisions are ones that best suit what our faithful friends need. This starts with sound decisions on both their care and their diet.

The modern pet food world is one of mystery and marketing. It didn’t always used to be this way. At the turn of the 20th century, not too long ago by genetic standards, our house cats would fend for themselves, going off at night or throughout the day to track down prey. Our dogs, would gorge on the leftovers from our own tables or the extras which didn’t make it to dinner. The idea of bagged dog and cat food, formulated to appear as little brown kernels, boiled, extruded or baked to the limits of nutritional relevance and preserved to last for years on a store shelf, was preposterous. Even now, in a marketplace dedicated to

more natural dietary choices for us, we still allow ourselves to be convinced that a processed and preserved diet full of bi-products and fillers is what’s best for those innocent eyes of our pets.

There are other choices for them, there are better choices for them. More and more pet owners are discovering that many of their animals long-term illnesses and conditions are connected to the diets they suffer through. A simple choice of dedicating themselves to more natural dietary choices for their pets have reaped dramatic results in their animals overall health. People are seeing their pet’s coat and skin get rejuvenated, they’re witnessing huge improvements in weight and energy along with the relief of many types of parasitic issues through the feeding of more natural raw food diets or “near raw” food diets, such as dehydrated and freeze dried foods. Companies like Ziwi Peak, an air dried raw food company out of New Zealand, are breaking barriers in the pet food industry by providing a diet that has almost all of the nutritional benefits of raw with the convenience of feeding a kibble.

Our animals are begging us to make the right choices for them. We at Just About Pets Wellness Center can help you make those choices. We can provide for you a holistic perspective on your dog and cats health that compliments any other type of care they may be receiving.

Come down and visit our store and see what your dogs and cats have been missing. See our Ad for more details on all of our services, products and great deals!

Three-peat for Lions

The Yale Lions boys hockey team celebrates after winning their third straight B.C. high school hockey title on Tuesday.

Dan KINVIG

Abbotsford News

A hat trick from Matt Revel paced the Yale Lions to their third consecutive B.C. high school hockey championship.

submitted photo

The Lions knocked off the Earl Marriott Mariners of Surrey 6-2 on Tuesday night at the Langley Sportsplex, in a title game that was much closer than the score

indicated. Yale rallied from a pair of onegoal deficits in the second period, before pulling away late in the third.

“We showed a lot of depth,” said Billy

Wilms, the program co-ordinator for the Yale Hockey Academy, who coached the Lions along with Brad Bowen and Andy Nielsen.

“It just shows how good our academy is in the Lower Mainland.”

Marriott led on two occasions in the middle frame, but Yale battled back to tie the score twice on goals by Revel and Mike Holub.

The turning point came late in the period. Off a set play in the offensive zone, Jake Virtanen fed Austin Edwards for a one-timer that gave Yale a 3-2 lead with just 13 seconds left before intermission.

In the third, Jared Virtanen notched a crucial insurance goal, and Revel tacked on two more to complete the hat trick.

Alex Orth picked up the win in net.

Yale is a founding member of the fledgling high school midget-age league, and has won the title in all three seasons of its existence. The league has grown from six teams in 2010, to 20 in 2011, to 26 this year.

“It’s growing in popularity,” Wilms noted. “It’s been a long time coming, and I think it’s going to get stronger.

“Interior teams have already approached BC Hockey, and more want to get on board.

I would think that within the next five years, you’ll see all the regions in B.C. with teams registered.”

ARTHRITIS

Pain free in 2 weeks!

This is what happened to me personally. After suffering for years I desperately tried everything, drugs, natural products, physiotherapy, acupuncture, magnets and nothing was of any real help. Finally I had relief in 2 weeks by taking shark cartilage that was specially processed to preserve the natural active ingredients.

This is the kind we are now promoting. I realized then that there are over 50 million men and women that are battling the same illness and getting treatments that are not working well, otherwise we would not have this ongoing huge health problem. In the last 10 years we have helped tens of thousands of men and women to have less pain or no pain at all. This is a by-product of the American food industry. No sharks are caught because of their bones/cartilage. Don’t let activists confuse you. Nick A. Jerch, President We have real EVIDENCE that it works. On our web site you find over 100’s of testimonials with full names and towns. All 100% true. Skeptics may call them. Here are some examples: Doctor suggested knee replacement after all his options failed with drugs and cortisone shots in knee and lower back. I recommend Bell Shark Cartilage to those millions suffering needlessly like I did for 40 years with arthritis in my #1 knees. It's a shame that I was given drugs and injections all these years when a natural medicine could have spared me the endless torture day and night. Pat Laughlin, Coldwater, ON My hip is 95% pain free. Pain killing drugs mask and Bell Shark Cartilage heals. Rebecca Hite, Oroville, CA I tried another brand and pain came back. 2 weeks on Bell and pain is gone again. Gert Dupuis, Hanmer, ON Cancelled knee replacement. I was in pain and limping. Have no more pain now. Can square dance for hours. Anton Melnychuk, Porcupine Plain, SK. For 32 years I cried barrels of tears. Was in and out of hospitals costing society tens of thousands of dollars.

I have taken many thousands of pills that nearly killed me. Finally 3 bottles of Bell Shark Cartilage costing less than $100 stopped a lifetime of suffering without side effects. Eleanor Sauson, Shigawake, QC Others write: Can walk again for hours…Climb stairs without hanging on to railing…First time in 15 years can sleep at night…Rheumatoid pain in joints down 90%, same for my sister.

Heartburn Reflux

By Dr. Chakib Hammoud, M.H.,PhD.

The USDA now recommends to eat 50% alkaline food (vegetables, legumes, salads, fruit). Health professionals suggest 80% alkaline food. Unfortunately, North American people eat 90% acidic food (meat, noodles, rice, bread, pastries, sweets, junk food). If you cannot change your diet to USDA’s 50% or closer to 80% alkaline food, consider to supplement with a natural health product that helps to increase your pH alkaline level close to a healthy #7. Ask for Bell Acidic Stomach/Alkaline Balance #39. It’s inexpensive, has no side effects and may eliminate the need for anti-acid pills many people take. As a bonus, an alkaline balanced body prevents many illnesses. See guarantee printed on box.

Reflux gave me a sore throat and I could not sing in the church choir anymore. After taking Bell #39 I have no more reflux and rejoice in singing again. Helene Giroux, 65, Quebec, QC Have family history of heartburn. For last 10 years I suffered a lot with acid reflux. I told all family members about #39 being all natural, giving quick relief and having no side effects. Michael Fasheh, 49, Port Ranch, CA Very happy with acid reflux relief. Last 4 years had increasing reflux despite taking anti-acid products. I am also trying to eat more alkaline food. Grzegorz Smirnow, 43, Mt. Prospect, IL Suffered with reflux, choking and coughing. After starting Bell #39 I feel great. Amazed about the complete relief.

Thanks from the bottom of my heart. Katarina Tusa, 63, North York, ON Was sleeping sitting up to avoid reflux. I thought I had this health problem for life like my other family members. Bell #39 brought quick relief. Can sleep now normally, have more energy, feel great.

Bell products are quite different. Virginia Grant, 67, Markham, ON No need to make claims. Bell relays 100% truthful user’s free speech. No money is paid for it. No questions asked guarantee.

By Dr. Chakib Hammoud, M.H.,PhD. Long term weight control without controlling blood sugar is destined to fail. This is why we have an epidemic of obesity. How it works: Stops the “roller coaster” of cravings and appetite to eat foods like sugar and starches that cause high blood glucose levels, which then brings on your pancreas to automatically pump insulin into your blood stream. Subsequently the high level of insulin precipitates low levels of blood glucose and cravings for more sugar and starchy carbohydrates (breads, noodles, crackers, cereals, french fries) which you don’t need and therefore it goes into unwanted fat storage and being overweight. Experts now recognize these basic facts.#40 Bell Blood Sugar Imbalance helps to stop this vicious cycle and puts you in control. Dr. Hammond says this natural product works 10 times better because it reprograms our brain and pancreas to release insulin in a controlled manner. Helpful non-fattening eating suggestions in the box. Fibers and exercise like walking are beneficial and help after you control the underlying basic blood sugar imbalance.

Working in a health food store I heard people saying how well #40 works. I tried it myself. Finally a product that controls my blood sugar much better than anything else we had in the store. Thank you for helping people around the world. Irene M. Urdialez, 43, Brynton Beach, FL My medical indicated pre-diabetic.

I took #40. When re-tested readings were fine. This helped my metabolism and my weight is down 25 lbs. I am grateful to the health food store people for their advice. Michael O’Brien, 60, Rutherglen, ON I finally found the right approach to losing weight. I tried for 3 years to lose weight. After starting #40 my blood sugar #40 is stable now. I was able to stop overeating and lost my excess weight. Sara John, 40, Kitchener, ON I was struggling for 15 years with weight gain in spite of diet and exercise. I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. I will forever be grateful to the store manager that explained to me to take #40 and read suggestions to avoid fattening foods. I lost 70 lbs. My fasting blood sugar is now 92. My 2 hour post meal glucose level is now 92 as well. My new shape raised my self-esteem and gave me immeasurable peace of mind. Karen Maples, 55, Clarksville, TN Diabetic eliminated high blood sugar levels with #40. My readings were 140 to 200 and are now 99 to 122 range where I want it to be. Before I bought about 10 different supplement that were more expensive and didn’t work as well. I also lost some weight. A great improvement in my health and daily living.

WITHERS Donald George October 1941 - April 22, 2012

Don, after a brief battle with cancer, passed away in the early hours of Sunday April 22, 2012. He is survived by his loving wife, Ruth, and his special little pug Elmo. He was predeceased by his parents Brent and Norah Withers, and brother Brian Withers. He leaves behind his Mother & Father-in-law, Bruce and June Alsbury; his sister-in-law Carol (Mark) Siemens and nieces Allison (Andrew) Spear and Jennifer Siemens; sister-in-law Ann Klassen and Matt Jones and nephews Tyler Klassen (Carlie) and Kelly Klassen and fiancé Gail Schultze; brotherin-law Michael Alsbury and nephew Morgan Alsbury. Don was born in Prince Rupert, later moving to Nanaimo and then Prince George. He worked for Prince George Pulp & Paper for a few years. He then started a business, Kanaka Seafoods, 35 years ago, and was a well-liked and respected supplier to many local customers and still retained some customers up until his death. Don also leaves behind his very special buddies Darcy Nichol, Brent Valder, Lawrence Rempel, Craig Stenerson and Don Dellaire. Their devotion during his illness was amazing.

Special thanks to Dr. Bale and the nurses and staff at the Cancer Centre in Abbotsford.

Don requested no service, but there will be an open house 1:30 to 4:00 Saturday April 28, 2012, at his home. In lieu of flowers, donations to the BC Cancer Foundation or SPCA would be greatly appreciated.

Adding Value and Influencing People Part 7 Angelo Rea B.Th., M.T.S.

Area Manager DIGNITY FUNERAL HOMES

Disappointments come and go. Sometimes they seem to stay a little longer than we anticipate.

People have not met certain expectations and therefore we encounter disappointment. Life has its moments and sometimes we let the experience of disappointment get us down.

People are hurting. They need other people who genuinely care for them.

It is never easy to find someone that you can place your trust and confidence in. A positive influence on other people can

have an impact on their life. Sometimes we are the salt and light of someone’s life. You never know what people are going through and therefore we should be mindful of our influence.

People going through disappointment may be experiencing a cloud that lingers. A positive influence can change that cloud into sunshine.

It is never enough to say “hello”. It is best to say, “How are you and how you are feeling? I know that I can add value to your life.”
