Keeping a little more of your cash at home

Monday, October 15, 2012 Kootenay News Advertiser A remarkable success story, born in the US, is moving north of the border to take root in

the City of Cranbrook thanks to the Cranbrook and District Chamber of Commerce.

Protecting our province from the harmful effects of used oil and antifreeze must be a responsibility we all share, together. So please, next time you look to dispose of used oil or antifreeze materials, find a collection facility near you. Here are three easy ways to do so:

implement the 10 Percent Initiative in Cranbrook over the next two years. To kick off the ed-

In a continued effort to encourage higher rates of recovery, BCUOMA has built a strong support network across the province. Today, participation includes 209 brand-owner members, 39 collectors and processors, 520+ return collection facilities and more than 4,000 generators. In addition, BCUOMA is reprising its successful ambassador program this summer – with two ambassadors touring the province to educate and raise awareness of the importance of used oil and antifreeze recycling.

Although it’s commonly accepted that oil and antifreeze are not household garbage we can simply throw out, more than one million litres of used oil ends up in BC landfills every year. When you consider that it only takes one drop of oil to contaminate a million drops of water, the problem is clear: there’s just too many drops to count, too many to ignore.

BCUOMA is a non-for-profit organization that encourages British Columbians to responsibly recycle used oil, oil filters, oil containers, used antifreeze and antifreeze containers.

Since the launch of the program in 2003, British Columbians have done an exceptional job of recycling their used oil materials.

The Retail Committee of the Cranbrook and District Chamber of Commerce is looking to

one drop makes a difference.

2011 recovery rates

By recycling your used oil and antifreeze products, you’re playing an important role in preserving our environment for future generations.

As of July 1, 2011 antifreeze and antifreeze containers have been included within the broader recycling program.

From the 10 million litres of automotive antifreeze sold in BC each year, about 45% will be available for collection and recycling. Please check for a collection facility near you.

ucation and awareness campaign, the Chamber, in partnership with the Columbia Basin Trust, the College of the Rockies and a number of local businesses are hosting Kathy Callies from Howard, South Dakota, who was involved in the initiative since its inception, to speak in Cranbrook on October 16 and 17.

“This was a story I came across in a book I was reading,” says Connor Stewart, Chair of the Cranbrook and District Chamber of Commerce Retail Committee. “It caught my attention right away as it completely related to a number of things we were beginning to investigate. I am very excited to have Kathy come to speak to our community and tell the story in more depth.

Born in the community of Howard, South Dakota in 1995, a group of high school students were trying to find ways to stop the out migration of people, jobs and money and revive their dying community. After much work and research, students presented their recommendations to the public and leaders in the County and also provided one simple, surprising fact: if the residents of Howard spent just 10 per cent more of their disposable income at home, they would boost the local economy by $7 million. Locals responded and one year later South Dakota’s Department of Revenue released a shocking number – the amount of money spent in Minor County had increased by $15.6 million, more than double the increase the students had expected.

This initiative also ties into all four pillars that support our entire community as identified by the Cranbrook Connected document. Kathy Callies will be making a presentation targeting youth at the College of the Rockies Lecture Theatre on Tuesday October 15, 2012 at 7 p.m.

Her second presentation will be at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon on October 17, 2012 at noon at the Prestige Inn, as part of Small Business Week.

Find the Right Diet for You Our body is the temple of our soul

and it is our duty to take good care of it as long as we live. In that regard we need to feed it with foods that have the best nutritive value, that are free of pesticides, hormones, antibiotics etc… In order to gain muscle mass, to avoid sickness and to feel great we need to become conscious customers.

Lots of people take tons of Aurélie vitamins, minerals and other Wiedemann supplements thinking that it will compensate for their poor diet, this is nonsense! You can’t eat junk food thinking that because you take lots of supplements you can get away with it.

Theoretically you should find everything you need in your diet if you choose a great variety of organic proteins, vegetables, carbohydrates, healthy fats, and eat according to the ratios that your digestive system is designed to process. However, sometimes even if you eat properly you might have to take a few supplements, especially if the organic vegetables you consume are imported from a far away country and ripen in the truck… (Another great argument in favour of growing your own vegetables and/or buying local organic products). William Wolcott and Trish Fahey, in their book “The Metabolic Typing Diet” show that everybody is different and thus able to digest more or less proteins, more or less carbohydrates/ vegetables, and more or less fat. If you take Inuits for example, their diet is exclusively composed of proteins and fat: feed them lots of vegetables and carbohydrates and they will probably get sick, they have almost become carnivores because their environment led them to evolve that way. Some tribes in South America have access to lots and lots of vegetables and almost no meat, just like the Inuit, they have adapted to their environment and became vegetarian. While dissecting their bodies you can see how their digestive tract has evolved, the shape of the stomach of an Inuit is quite different from the shape of the stomach of someone who has inherited a body from a vegetarian lineage. Similarly our genetic heritage is very specific and we need to find the right ratio of protein versus carbs/vegetables and fats necessary to balance our own bodies’ chemistry. This is why protein diets or carbohydrate diets only work with a certain ratio of the population, people need to find what works for them!

Once we discover how we should eat, we do not need to count calories anymore, but we have to listen to our bodies to feel when we are full. We have been conditioned to finish our plates and this is one of the greatest mistakes we can make. Sometimes our bodies don’t need anymore fuel, so it is completely useless to feed it more because the plate isn’t empty: food that isn’t needed is stored as fat! This is quite hard especially in North America where the portions are excessively big. It is better to bring food home and finish it later or the next day than to force it down one’s throat and feel horrible at the end of the meal.

We didn’t know quite what to expect when we drove to Naramata last week to join five other couples for an Italian dinner and vertical wine tasting at D’Angelo Estate Winery.

During a stay in the summer at the winery’s bed and breakfast we seemed to have learned about the dinner by chance while we were chatting with owner Sal D’Angelo. It sounded too good to pass up, so I made sure our names went on the guest list immediately.

The first surprise came when we walked into Sal’s dining room. We were among the last to arrive—having made the two-minute walk from our B and B room— and there sat Sal, at the table with the other guests. I had expected that he would be busy in the kitchen, as he had told me that he would be cooking the dinner.

Nope. His 82-year-old mom was visiting from Ontario and had taken over kitchen duties, like any self-respecting Italian matriarch.

As I took my seat beside Sal, huge trays arrived, borne by his lovely daughter Steph, who runs the tasting room and looks after much of the winery’s voluminous paperwork. Salumi, cheese, olives, crackers, vegetables—typical Italian appies, abounded.

A prosciutto made by Sal’s dad back in Ontario was a big hit. Paper thin slices of cured pork, but without a hint of fat. His slow-baked porcetta was equally delicious.

Lined up at each place setting were five wine glasses, each awaiting a sample of one of five vintages of Pinot Noir that have been produced under the D’Angelo label in Naramata (Sal also still has his first winery in On-

tario, where his son has now assumed winemaking duties). Once we all had our samples, Sal led us through a tasting of each, but not before dropping a teaser. Three of the first four years (2005-2008) had won gold medals, the other a bronze (the 2009 vintage hasn’t been released yet).

Which, he asked, did we think hadn’t won gold?

Eventually, not at all to my surprise, only a couple of guests got it right.

My choice got the majority of votes, and we were wrong. It was a great indication that individual taste plays a huge role in the popularity of any wine, and a good reason not to take awards and ratings too seriously.

Soon the dinner began to arrive. Bowls of pasta with tomato sauce, plates of sausages and pork, salads, lots of seasonal veggies, the works, all served family style, just as one would expect from a family of Italian heritage.

Once we were all happily enjoying the food and a variety of other “surprise” wines that Sal opened, Mama d’Angelo pulled up a chair and joined us.

Throughout the twoand-a-half hours or so that we sat, Sal regaled us with information about wine and winemaking, anecdotes from his decades in the industry and his history in Ontario (where he established the first winery in the Amherstberg area—there are now about 20). The electrician-come-college instructor and amateur wine-maker was seen by many as a lunatic, not least because of his enthusiasm for putting up Wine Route signs on roads in the area. Highways employees would remove them and Sal would replace them in what became an on-going battle.

D’Angelo Estate Winery is exactly the sort of operation that Angela and I have come to seek out

in our travels. Small production with the handson operation of a jack(or jill) of-all-trades. Sal is the winemaker and vineyard manager. Each day he’s usually working out among the vines, at least until harvest, when his attention turns to turning the fruit into wine.

Our conversations continued, with enthusiastic participation from everyone at the table, until the subject rolled around to a dessert wine that was sitting in oak barrels out in the winery building, aging until a targeted spring release. We should do a barrel tasting, Sal said and, like the Pied Piper, he led his followers out into the chilly night air (the temperature would drop to -6 degrees C that night, effectively stopping further development of grapes in the vineyard), through the dark yard and into the winery.

He didn’t bother looking for a wine thief (the traditional glass tube used to extract samples through a barrel’s bunghole), instead using a clean length of tubing to siphon a half litre of the Port-like liquid into a glass beaker. Soon we were all sampling this delicious, not too sweet elixir. We learned that, wanting to remain authentic in his production, Sal had transported barrels of his Merlot to a Pentiction distillery, which turned the wine into brandy. It was that brandy that he used to fortify the sweet wine.

We also got to provide input into what it would be called on the label. Port is a name that can only be used for products produced in a specific region of Portugal.

The dinner came to an end and another twominute walk took us back to our cozy B and B room (the Petit Verdot), where we would spend two nights, taking the opportunity to visit other wineries in the area.

Grade eight students visit the Town of Golden’s waste water treatment facility.

Submitted Students from Golden’s three grade eight classes spent a day travelling around the town and area in order to learn first-hand where their water comes from, where it goes after it’s used and how important it is to look after water and keep watersheds healthy. The field trip was part of Know Your Watershed, a water stewardship program developed by Columbia Basin Trust (CBT) and local environmental educators.

The students toured the town’s water facili-

ties, learning how water gets from underground aquifers to Golden’s homes and businesses, then what happens to the used water before it flows back into the Columbia River. The day included stops at a well near Alexander Park Elementary School, the town’s water reservoirs near the sports fields and the waste water treatment facility. The students also visited North Hospital Creek to perform water quality tests of their own, plus discover what organisms live in the creek and what they tell about the health of the creek.

“A huge thank you to the Town of Golden, especially Al Taylor, Water Systems Operator, who led us on our tour of the municipal water facilities; not only is he knowledgeable, but also able to convey the information to the students in a relevant and engaging way,” said Sanne van der Ros, Know Your Watershed educator.

“We also want to thank the volunteers who came out to help, who shared great knowledge and enthusiasm for water and healthy watersheds.”

The students learned many fascinating facts, such as: • Golden is one of the few BC communities that doesn’t need to add chlorine to its drinking water as it already meets health standards; • Town staff sample the water 307 times a year to make sure it continues to meet standards; • Under the town, there are 39 kilometres of pipes for clean water, plus 36 km of pipes for sewage; if laid end to end down the valley, these would lead from Golden all the way past Parson and back; • Golden residents and businesses collectively use an average of four swimming pools of water per day.

“It’s important to actively engage youth in

water issues in the Basin,” said Rick Allen, CBT Program Manager, Water and Environment. “Through Know Your Watershed, students are learning the important role water plays in our lives.”

The Know Your Watershed program includes two classroom sessions and a full-day field trip that increase students’ knowledge and awareness of their

K

eeping

watershed and waterrelated issues in their community. Students are also encouraged to take part in a local water action project that expands on the classroom and field-trip learning. To learn more about Know Your Watershed, visit www.cbt. org/waterstewardship.

Recycling 101

Milk Carton Recycling

Mixed paper – including paper, phone books, magazines, envelopes, post it notes, flyers, soft and hard cover books, and newspapers. If it’s made of paper, it goes in the yellow bin.

Aluminum or tin cans – this includes all beverage and food cans (ie/ soup, tuna). Cans should be well rinsed. Remove labels if possible.

Cardboard – from big boxes to cereal, toothpaste, and cracker boxes.

Please flatten all boxes. The only time cardboard can’t be recycled is if it is covered with wax, foil, or food waste. Examples include pizza boxes and milk cartons. These items should NOT go in the recycling bin.

They belong in the garbage. Milk cartons can go to the Bottle Depot for recycling.

Grocery Bags – make sure there are no receipts or other garbage and that the bags are clean.

Plastics #1-#6 – plastic must be clean and must have a number on it. No Styrofoam (even though it is marked #6). See below for more information.

The Blue Bag Curbside Programs in Invermere and Fernie accept the same materials as the yellow bins.

Plastics Basics Only plastics #1-#6 are accepted. If you are unsure of whether a piece of plastic can go in the bin – check to see the number. If it’s between 1 and 6, it can be recycled. If it’s not, reuse it or throw it in the garbage. All plastics MUST be numbered.

What’s NOT accepted: × Styrofoam – even though Styrofoam is marked with a #6, it is NOT recyclable in our program.

× Unmarked plastics – if it doesn’t have a number on it, it can’t go in the bin.

Often the lids are made out of different plastics than the containers, so you have to check carefully. Each piece must be numbered. × #7 plastics – #7 plastic is NOT recyclable through the RDEK’s program. × Dirty plastics - Plastics must be clean. That means conditioner and shampoo bottles need to be rinsed out so there’s no residue left in the bottle. All food containers (like ketchup, mustard, peanut butter, etc.) should be thoroughly rinsed and milk jugs must have the caps removed and be well rinsed before being placed in the bin. If you have a plastic with some kind of handle (ie/ an ice cream pail with a metal handle), the handle should be removed – even if it’s made of plastic.

Milk cartons are NOT accepted in the yellow bins; however milk cartons and all milk substitutes (soy, rice, etc) can be recycled at the Cranbrook, Kimberley, Invermere and Fernie Bottle Depots.

It’s a free drop off (you don’t get a deposit back).

Plastic milk jugs can go to the bottle depot or the yellow bins.

The RDEK’s Transfer Stations and Landfills will be closed on November 11, 2012 for Remembrance Day.

Electronics Recycling Electronics recycling in BC has expanded to include a wide range of new products.

Thermostats and Smoke Detectors There are now programs in place for recycling your old Thermostats and Smoke Detectors.

AlarmRecycle is a recycling program for used or expired smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) alarms.

Recycling 101

Milk Carton Recycling

Mixed paper – including paper, phone books, magazines, envelopes, post it notes, flyers, soft and hard cover books, and newspapers. If it’s made of paper, it goes in the yellow bin.

Aluminum or tin cans – this includes all beverage and food cans (ie/ soup, tuna). Cans should be well rinsed. Remove labels if possible.

Cardboard – from big boxes to cereal, toothpaste, and cracker boxes.

Please flatten all boxes. The only time cardboard can’t be recycled is if it is covered with wax, foil, or food waste. Examples include pizza boxes and milk cartons. These items should NOT go in the recycling bin.

They belong in the garbage. Milk cartons can go to the Bottle Depot for recycling.

Grocery Bags – make sure there are no receipts or other garbage and that the bags are clean.

Plastics #1-#6 – plastic must be clean and must have a number on it. No Styrofoam (even though it is marked #6). See below for more information.

The Blue Bag Curbside Programs in Invermere and Fernie accept the same materials as the yellow bins.

Plastics Basics Only plastics #1-#6 are accepted. If you are unsure of whether a piece of plastic can go in the bin – check to see the number. If it’s between 1 and 6, it can be recycled. If it’s not, reuse it or throw it in the garbage. All plastics MUST be numbered.

What’s NOT accepted: × Styrofoam – even though Styrofoam is marked with a #6, it is NOT recyclable in our program.

× Unmarked plastics – if it doesn’t have a number on it, it can’t go in the bin.

Often the lids are made out of different plastics than the containers, so you have to check carefully. Each piece must be numbered. × #7 plastics – #7 plastic is NOT recyclable through the RDEK’s program. × Dirty plastics - Plastics must be clean. That means conditioner and shampoo bottles need to be rinsed out so there’s no residue left in the bottle. All food containers (like ketchup, mustard, peanut butter, etc.) should be thoroughly rinsed and milk jugs must have the caps removed and be well rinsed before being placed in the bin. If you have a plastic with some kind of handle (ie/ an ice cream pail with a metal handle), the handle should be removed – even if it’s made of plastic.

Milk cartons are NOT accepted in the yellow bins; however milk cartons and all milk substitutes (soy, rice, etc) can be recycled at the Cranbrook, Kimberley, Invermere and Fernie Bottle Depots.

It’s a free drop off (you don’t get a deposit back).

Plastic milk jugs can go to the bottle depot or the yellow bins.

The RDEK’s Transfer Stations and Landfills will be closed on November 11, 2012 for Remembrance Day.

Attention first time home buyers!

Time still remains to take advantage of the New Home Buyers Tax Credit offered by the BC Government. With this program, first time home buyers can qualify for up to $10,000 in rebates on new home construction.

Fisher Peak Townhomes by New Dawn Developments provides the perfect fit for this rebate program. Starting at just $259,000 including HST, the brand new three-bedroom home design includes features such as an attached garage, granite counter tops and a full GE appliance package. An open concept kitchen, dining and living room offers plenty of space for everyday life.

All bedrooms are spacious, and two of the three bedrooms offer walk-in closets. There is a twopiece powder room in the main living area and a full bath including a linen closet on the upper floor.

Granite bathroom counters and bright lighting add to the feeling of quality.

A bonus walk-out area on the entry level is developed and can be used as a fourth bedroom, media room, exercise area, play room...the list goes on.

Two-inch faux wood window blinds are included throughout.

Fisher Peak Townhomes were constructed to the specifications of “Built Green - Gold Level.” This signifies that the homes have improved air quality,

are energy efficient, and have reduced water consumption and low-maintenance exteriors. And, with a recycling program in place for waste materials during construction, and recycled-content in materials throughout the homes, owners have a lot to feel good about in their new home.

Nestled in the established neighbourhood of Kelowna Crescent in Cranbrook, Fisher Peak Townhomes supports urban development rather than sprawl. You will save 10% on CMHC fees thanks to the Built Green Energuide Rating of Fisher Peak plus you will notice the cost to operate your home will be up to 60% lower than a home build without Built Green Specifications.

The first two buildings at Fisher Peak are sold out and construction has begun on buildings three and four. Upon completion, the full Fisher Peak Townhomes development will encompass eight buildings with a total of 24 townhome units.

New Dawn Developments has been building throughout the East Kootenay for over 30 years.

Specializing in custom homes of all sizes as well as commercial, multi-family and renovation and projects, New Dawn promises to finish your project on time and on budget.

Call 250-489-1519 to learn more on Fisher Peak Townhomes – where style and price meet.

Don’t forget the stairwell when you are decorating your home

Even though decorating a stairwell can be problematic because of its central position in a home, it really does deserve all your attention. Indeed, if there’s one part of the house where you should be more daring, this is it!

In order to harmonize colours and style, the first thing you should take into consideration is the décor of the rooms that are accessed from the staircase.

Secondly, stairs leading from one floor to

another can tend to feel cramped, and the higher the wall the more your choice of colour will affect the final look.

Light, neutral colours will help the space appear more open, while darker tones will make a staircase seem more enclosed.

Applying a single colour to the walls will create a marked contrast with the colour of the staircase and emphasize the height of the walls. Another option is to apply a band of

a different colour to divide the wall several feet from the ground, running parallel to the angle of the stairs.

This will draw attention away from the height of the wall. The effect can be accentuated by replacing a traditional balustrade with stainless steel cables to create more transparency.

The walls of a stairwell are perfect for displaying family photographs or paintings arranged in a staggered vertical pattern fol-

lowing the contour of the stairs. Ensure that the frames are visually pleasing when grouped together and add one or two wall lamps to illuminate them. In this way, each stair can become a place to stop and admire a picture.

A carpet can also give new life to a worn staircase, and if the stairs are wide enough, decorative objects placed here and there can create points of interest.

Photo submitted

Your stairwell is the perfect spot to be bold in your decorating decisions, so long as you can keep the rest of the design of the home in mind.

October is National Bullying Prevention Month

What makes your child a bully and what makes a victim Submitted from RCMP SOS children’s safety magazine.

What makes a Bully?

Bullying behaviour can be identified as early as pre-school age, and some children who are bullies continue this behaviour into adulthood. Most children learn to control their anger and fighting instincts as they grow older, but not the bully.

These children have

special characterisitics.

Children who systematically bully others usually have a group of children they bully regularly while other bullies randomly target a variety of students.

Bullies have particular behaviour and personality traits.

Such as: Greater than average aggressive behaviour patterns The desire to dominate peers The need to feel in control, to win

No sense of remorse for hurting another child A refusal to accept responsibility for his/her behaviour Parent(s) of bullies usually support their child’s aggressive behaviour toward other children and often bully their child.

What makes a victim?

Why aren’t all children victims?

Research on bullying

states that sixty percent of all students are never involved in any kind of bullying incidents, either as victims or as bullies. However, every day in schools, many students witness bullying incidents as they happen, and this forces their involvement. Often, these students do not realize that what they are witnessing is, in fact, bullying.

Good natured teasing and roughhousing are only fun if both parties involved agree that it is fun. The power differ-

October is National Bullying Prevention Month ence between bullies and victims determines the nature of the interaction.

Most children are approached by a bully early in their school career, and/or when they change schools.

It is often the child’s reaction to that first encounter with being bul-

lied which determines whether or not he/she will be approached again. Children who are victimized tend to display “vulnerable behaviours.” People who are identified as being highly vulnerable are often singled out as victims.

Reasons why we must take action against bullying: By age 24, 60% of identified bullies have a criminal conviction.

Children who are repeatedly victimized sometimes see suicide as their only escape.

Bullying is one of the

most underrated and enduring problems in schools today.

Schools are a prime location for bullying.

Bullies lose their popularity as they get older and are eventually disliked by the majority of students.

Many adults do not

know how to intervene in bullying situations, therefore bullying is often overlooked.

Bullying occurs once every seven minutes.

On average, bullying episodes are brief, approximately 37 seconds long.

The emotional scars

from bullying can last a lifetime.

Only 25% of students report that teachers intervene in bullying situations, while 71% of teachers believe they always intervene.

We believe that bulling can be significantly reduced in schools if

teachers, support staff, parent groups, student councils and administrators join together to take action against bullying.
