Answer for April 6: The cougar travels a distance of four deer leaps in the same time as it takes the deer to go a distance of three deer leaps. This means that for every three leaps which the deer takes, it loses one leap’s worth of its lead. It originally had a twenty-leaps lead, so it will be caught after 3 u 20 60 leaps.

Local skater ranked second in province after competition A Cranbrook skater is now the second ranked in the province in her age group. Jessica Hewison, 15, won the honour at the Super Series of Skating in the biggest competition of the year. “There were a lot of skaters there and they were all great,” said Jessica. “It was very exciting.”

Jessica, who has been competing since she was three years old, said that she has been practicing six days a week for as long as she can remember and is currently also helping to coach younger skaters. This is an activity that should come as no surprise, as her mother has been one of her coaches with the Cran-

brook Skating Club. “My mom, Daniela Hewison, has always helped me in training,” said Jessica. “In competition, she is always there for moral support too. She helps me keep my nerves under control.” For Daniela, coaching her daughter is something that came naturally. “I am de¿nitely proud of her as a parent and as her coach. She is a really hard worker who always takes time out to support and help the younger skaters in the club,” said Daniela. “It can sometimes be a challenge to coach your own child but she is very receptive and good to work with. She has also had much support from the other coaches

who work with her as well in different disciplines and aspects of her skating. I have been coaching with the club for 15 years and truly love my job. Over all the years we have had so many terri¿c kids skate with us and it’s great to be able to go to work and love what you do and love the people you work with. The coaching staff, executive and skaters make this a great club.” For the future, Jessica said she intends to keep on skating. While skating in the Olympics seems like a long ways off for her, she isn’t ruling out that possibility. “I would de¿nitely love to go there,” said Jessica. “And I am considering skating professionally.”

YOUR CITY....WORKING FOR YOU! Notice to Motorists Regarding Pothole Damage Claims Please be advised of and consider the following: What Causes Potholes? Potholes are weather related and can occur at any time of the year. They are normally formed following extreme weather, with the freezing and thawing of sub-surface water from rain or snow runoff that has infiltrated into the ground through surface cracks. The weakening of the pavement structure combined with heavy traffic loads eventually leads to the formation of potholes. The Law In British Columbia The law in British Columbia does not make a municipality legally responsible to ensure that its roads are always free of defects or hazards such as potholes and The Local Government Act, Section 288, provides that a municipality does not have the legal liability for damages that arise from a breakdown in a road. The municipality must be found to have been negligent in the particular circumstances. Motorists are advised that written notice of intent to claim must be provided to a municipality within two (2) months of the events that give rise to the claim – per The Local Government Act, Section 286. How Does The City of Cranbrook Respond to Potholes? The City deals with a large network of streets and Public Works has a fixed number of work crews, equipment and other resources with which it can respond to and repair road defects. When a pothole is reported to the City, the repair work is scheduled and carried out accordingly. In normal circumstances the City can respond to pothole repairs in a timely manner. During extreme and unfavourable weather conditions when pothole problems are numerous and proper repair work cannot be carried out, only temporary repairs will be made until conditions improve. To report potholes, please contact the City of Cranbrook Public Works Department at 250-489-0218.

University of Regina director of athletics Dick White announced Monday afternoon that Todd Johnson has been hired as the school’s men’s hockey head coach effective immediately. Johnson has been an assistant coach with the Western Hockey League’s Kootenay Ice for the past two seasons, helping guide the Ice to a league championship and an appearance in the Memorial Cup during the 2010-11 campaign. “Todd brings to the Cougars a record of success – from his playing days in the WHL and Canada West to his time as a member of Kootenay’s coaching staff,” White said. Prior to Johnson’s time with Kootenay, he served as the head coach of the Midget AAA team for the Pursuit of Excellence Hockey Academy (Kelowna, B.C.) for seven seasons. His professional playing career spanned six seasons, including ¿ve in Germany and one with the Central Hockey League’s Wichita Thunder. Johnson was also a ¿ve-year member of the University of Calgary’s hockey team, being named Canada West’s MVP following the 1996-97 campaign. He played for three full seasons in the WHL prior to his time with the Dinos, winning a Memorial Cup championship in 1992 with the Kamloops Blazers and serving as Red Deer’s captain during the franchise’s inaugural 199293 season.

With today's interests in growing plants naturally and reducing the use of pesticides, as well as homeowners having less space to grow things, home gardeners are seeking better ways of growing lots of healthy food. Tomatoes are still one of the most popular home-grown vegetables. However, we B.C. folk have the challenge of our climate. It is not always easy to get an abundant harvest with our shorter growing season as well as any blights or disease that may reduce output. So, this year we have an exciting new addition of grafted tomatoes that promise gardeners higher yields and healthier plants. The plants are called `Mighty Mato` and are a result of a technique called grafting. Grafting has been used for centuries for fruit trees and grapes, but only recently has it been applied to vegetable production. Commercial vegetable growers have used it worldwide – now we can offer this to all you homeowners for the first time. Grafted vegetables are created when the top part of one plant (scion) is attached to the root system of a separate plant (root stock). When their tissues heal, they fuse into one plant with the best qualities of each. The root stock contributes vigor and disease resistance while the top part is chosen for exceptional fruit flavour and quality. The resulting plant is more vigorous and productive in a way that is still natural. By grafting favourite conventional varieties like `Big Beef` onto special root stock, good varieties become super varieties. And even more exciting is the use of heirloom varieties like `Black Krim` and `Brandywine`. Heirloom varieties offer unique colours and flavours and can become more productive by using stronger root stock. • The advantages of grafting include: • Greater disease and pest resistance • Greater tolerance to extreme temperatures, both hot and cold • Less susceptible to over- and underwatering • Earlier, longer and more abundant harvest of big, beautiful fruit • Grafting vegetables is helping to produce greater yields with less chemicals, something we all want. In order to get the full benefits of grafted tomatoes, there are two important things to keep in mind when growing these plants. Unlike other tomatoes, grafted tomatoes should not be planted deeply in the ground. Make sure the grafted area, which can be seen at the bottom of the stem, remains above the soil surface. Otherwise, the top (scion) will form, its own roots and remove the benefits of grafting. Also, these heavy producers need room to grow. The greatest benefit and highest yields occur when the plants are grown in open soil or in very large containers, such as a half barrel. And remember to fertilize with a good quality tomato fertilizer. As always, new items like the `Mighty Mato` are available in limited quantities - book yours now, so you don't miss out. Till next time... happy gardening. Submitted by Shannon

A puck, a truck and a story of hope for A Clear View It hardly seems that just over a week ago that so much excitement would take place all because of a chance to win a beautiful Ford F-150 at Kootenay ICE game

compliments of Denham Ford and its support of the A Clear View – digital mammography campaign. When Cranbrook resident Marion Dixon

stepped out onto the ice surface between the 2nd and 3rd periods she remembers being nervous about how to hold a hockey stick never mind trying to shoot a puck.

When her fellow contestant made the attempt and missed, Marion decided give it her best try. Just imagine how dif¿cult it is to hit a hole no bigger than 3 ½ inches

wide and high from two blue lines away… almost impossible. It is now a week later and you may have heard or seen the story of the woman who did the impossible. Marion quite simply hit the puck and watched as it slid its way slowly down and through that small opening and became the owner of a new Ford truck. An incredible feat to say the least but this is the rest of the story. Brayden Denham shared with East Kootenay Foundation for Health the reason why he is passionate about being involved with the fundraising effort to bring a digital stereotsee Puck page 13

Marion Dixon (seated) picks up her new Ford F-150 from Brayden Denham as per of the Denham Ford “Shoot for the Truck” fundraiser for EKFH’s A Clear View campaign. Joining Brayden are Judy Gall & Colin Sinclair (EKFH Directors), Rene Kowalchuk & Tammy Kirk (Denham Ford). Puck from page 12

actic mammography unit to the East Kootenay Regional Hospital is that his grandmother had breast cancer. His way of giving back was for his company to offer a truck as a charitable fundraiser for the East Kootenay Foundation for Health. The public was encouraged to make a donation to the A Clear View campaign (over $2,200 raised) and whether you did or didn’t you received a ticket for a chance to come to center ice. Before Marion Dixon arrived at the game she had already planned to make her donation. You see, Marion is herself a breast cancer survivor,

a strong proponent of the digital stereotactic mammography campaign. Twenty-two months ago, Marion’s world was changed when she learned of her breast cancer diagnosis. “I know very well what this piece of equipment will mean to the East Kootenays; it will and can change lives. I am grateful to have won a truck but even more so to see people, businesses and organizations getting behind the foundation,” says Marion. The night out at the hockey game also highlighted a silent auction of current NHL/AHL jerseys of former Kootenay ICE alumni Fraser, McNabb, Eakin, Martin

and King. By the time the Shoot for the Truck donations and cheering for Marion Dixon was complete and the silent auction over, a total of just over $5,400 in additional funding was received for the A Clear View campaign. So it goes a puck, a truck and a story of hope, belief and challenging the impossible. East Kootenay Foundation for Health is grateful for the support of Denham Ford and the Kootenay ICE Hockey Club in our drive to bring a $1 million digital stereotactic mammography unit to the regional hospital. If you wish to make a donation, please visit www.aclearview.ca.

Show your support Primary bone cancer starts in the bone’s cells. A rare disease, it is not the same as secondary bone cancer, or bone metastases, which starts elsewhere in the body and spreads to the bones. Osteosarcoma is the most common type of bone cancer. It starts in new tissue in growing bones, most often in the knee area. Osteosarcoma tends to spread to other parts of the body, especially the lungs.

Primary brain tumours start in the brain and can be either benign or malignant. Cancerous tumours that begin to grow in other parts of the body and spread to the brain are called secondary or metastatic brain tumours. Elsewhere in the body, benign tumours are generally not considered as dangerous as malignant tumours. In the brain, however, both kinds can be serious and possibly life-threatening.

Breast cancer starts in breast tissue cells, which extend beyond the actual breasts, from the armpits across to the breastbone in the middle of the chest and up to the collarbone. The breasts sit on the chest muscles that cover the ribs. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death by cancer in women.

We are all affected, directly or indirectly, by cancer at some point in our lives. Thanks to the generosity of donors and the work of its personnel, the Canadian Cancer Society is the leader in the fight against this illness. The Canadian Cancer Society is a private, non-profit organization financed by public donations as well as by funds collected through fundraising activities. It uses every dollar raised in the most efficient way possible. That means administration costs are kept to a minimum in order to offer services to communities and to people living with cancer. This organization was created in 1929 at the request of the Canadian medical community, which was concerned by the ignorance of the general public regarding the symptoms of cancer. In those days, people with cancer often consulted a doctor only when their illness was already at an advanced stage, which greatly reduced their chances of survival. During the first years of this organization’s existence, most of its revenue consisted of a yearly grant given by the Canadian Medical Association. For almost 40 years now, the CCS has been able to raise money around the country with Daffodil Month. By selling daffodils every spring, the fundraising campaign makes a huge difference in key areas, such as research projects, raising awareness, and community support. Be sure to show your support for the Canadian Cancer Society by buying daffodils in April.

Kidney cancer occurs in either of the two kidneys, which are part of the urinary system. The main function of the kidneys is to ¿lter water, impurities, and wastes from the blood. There are several types of kidney cancer, the most common being renal cell carcinoma.

Primary liver cancer starts in the cells, bile ducts, blood vessels, or connective tissue of the liver. It is uncommon and is different from secondary liver cancer or metastatic liver cancer, which spread to the liver from other parts of the body. Most primary liver cancers begin in liver cells called hepatocytes, and the most common type is hepatocellular carcinoma.

There are two main types of lung cancer: small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer, which is the most common and slower-growing type. Small cell lung cancer grows quickly and often spreads to distant parts of the body. Lung cancer is the leading cause of death by cancer in both men and women.

Leukemia is a cancer that starts in the stem cells of the bone marrow. Bone marrow, which makes blood cells, is the soft, spongy material that ¿lls the centre of most bones. Leukemia develops when the blood stem cells produce abnormal blood cells. Over time, the leukemia cells crowd out normal blood cells, making it hard for the white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets to do their jobs.

There are three main types of ovarian cancer. For each type, the cancer starts in a different type of cell found in the ovaries: • epithelial cell cancer starts in the cells that cover the outer surface of the ovary; • germ cell tumours start in the egg cells within the ovary and generally occur in younger women. Germ cell cancer can even develop in children. • Stromal tumours start in the connective tissue cells that hold the ovary together.

APRIL IS DAFFODIL MONTH Every year the Canadian Cancer Society organizes a daffodil fundraising campaign across the country. The aim of this activity is to fund cancer research and community support services. Cervical cancer starts in cervix cells. The cervix is the narrow lower part of the uterus and is the passageway that connects the uterus to the vagina.

Most colorectal cancers start in the cells that line the inside of the colon or the rectum, which make up the large intestine (large bowel). The large intestine is the last part of the digestive system. Colorectal cancer usually grows slowly and in a predictable way and is curable when diagnosed at an early stage. Colorectal cancer is the second most fatal cancer in men and the third most fatal cancer in women.

Hodgkin lymphoma is a cancer that starts in the lymphocytes, the cells of the lymphatic system, which extends across the body. Hodgkin lymphoma usually begins in a group of lymph nodes in one part of the body, most often the neck. It grows in a predictable, orderly way from one lymph node group to the next. Eventually, it can spread to almost any tissue or organ in the body through the lymphatic system or the bloodstream.

The pancreas is a large gland that lies behind the stomach, deep inside the upper abdomen. The pancreas is part of the digestive system and is also part of the hormonal system, for which it makes insulin and other hormones. Most pancreatic cancers start in the ducts that carry pancreatic juices.

The prostate is part of the male reproductive system. This gland’s main function is to make seminal Àuid, which mixes with sperm from the testicles to make semen. Prostate cancer is the most common type found in men. It usually grows slowly and can often be cured or successfully managed. Nevertheless, prostate cancer is the third leading cause of death by cancer in men.

The most common types of skin cancer are squamous cell cancer and basal cell cancer. Both are known as non-melanoma skin cancer and can usually be treated successfully.

More than 90 percent of testicular cancers start in germ cells, which are the sperm-forming cells within the testicles. Other types of cancer can spread to the testicles, at which point they are called testicular metastasis. It is the most common cancer to occur in young men who are between 15 and 29 years old.

Congratulations are in order for a local Cranbrook student after a dance competition in Hawaii. Although the competition was extremely talented, this young dancer gloriously represented her home town. Natasha Norton and her mom Daniela are pictured at Kapiolani Park in Honolulu Hawaii where she was competing in the 31st Annual Hawaiian Scottish Festival and Highland Games. Natasha, a student of Liela Cooper, won one gold, one silver and seven bronze medals as well as the hand carved Tiki, she’s holding in the picture, for winning the Solo Premier Choreography event. While there, Natasha met dancers from the US, Canada and Scotland for a spring break ¿lled with wonderful memories.

Friday Nights are Ladies Nights

What a pleasure, to warm your face in the sun while enjoying a cool drink and a delicious salad. Restaurant patios are great places to sit outside the busyness and watch the world go by. Play at being a tourist. Eating on a patio is a great way to rediscover your town. Find one from where you can lift your eyes and discover the architecture, trees,

and other special features of the neighbourhood. Celebrate Sunday. A patio is a great place for a family brunch. Being outside takes some of the pressure off parents, whose kids will have stimulating things to look at while at the table. Relax between business meetings.

Make plans to meet some friends at a patio where you can order dishes and cocktails to share. The casual atmosphere is conducive to lively conversation and getting to know one another.
