Jarrod Bacon to appeal sentence Given 12 years in prison for drug conspiracy

Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Jarrod Bacon is appealing his 12year sentence for conspiracy to traffic cocaine. A hearing on the matter is scheduled to take place in mid-January. Bacon was sentenced in February of this year, following his trial with coaccused Wayne Scott of Abbotsford. Following credit for time already served, Bacon was left with remaining jail time of seven years and two

months. In May of this year, Crown prosecutors filed their own appeal of the sentence, saying it was too light. They had recommended a sentence of 21 years, while Bacon’s lawyer suggested a jail term of eight years. Bacon, 29, and Scott, 56, were charged in November 2009 following an undercover operation in Abbotsford by the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit. The operation involved the use of

a police agent who negotiated with Bacon, mainly through Scott, to purchase 100 kilos of cocaine purportedly being smuggled from Mexico. Most of the Crown’s case was based on wiretap evidence gathered by the agent in which Bacon indicated he had a funder who could supply $3 million for the drugs. The operation was halted by police before any money or drugs could change hands. Scott was sentenced in September to three and a half years in jail.

QUESTION

Bibles in schools

OF THE WEEK Do you feel the Cohen inquiry into the Fraser River sockeye salmon fishery was worthwhile?

Would Sutherland truly be open to distributing materials from other groups? Seriously? OK, how about the Sikhs, the Muslims, the Hindus, the Buddhists. What about pagans? What about Satanists? What about the non-religious (i.e. atheists, humanists, etc.?) I think that if he received a single request from any other religion, that the whole program would be shut down in a heartbeat. Brian Lang

To answer, go to abbynews.com

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Should Canada and the U.S. work together to legalize pot in both countries?

So Sutherland has found a loophole to advance his religious views. What exactly is wrong with following the intent of the language of the school act? Greg Tyler

258 responded:

It’s only a Bible, people. Get over it.. Lori Radke

YES: 55 % NO: 45 %

Salmon mystery far from solved Tom

Fletcher

B.C. Views Before the 1,200-page, $25-million Cohen Commission report on the Fraser River sockeye salmon fishery slips beneath the waves, allow me to dip my toe into the river of data that has flowed by in the past three years. If your information on this hugely complex subject consisted of skimming a few news stories or watching protesters on TV, you will likely conclude what urban people have been indoctrinated with for years. The whole issue is salmon farms and whether they are bad or catastrophic. “Freeze new salmon farms on sockeye migration route: Cohen” said the headline on a Black Press report. Those who read past the headline would learn that Justice Bruce Cohen recommended a freeze on further salmon farms around the Discovery Islands group near Campbell River until 2020. It’s up to the

industry to show by that time that the risk is “minimal,” or farms there should be shut down. A B.C. Salmon Farming Association spokesman said only nine of 70 B.C. salmon farms are in that area. There are no current applications for more. Let’s say you decide to plunge in, and download the full report from www.cohencommission.ca. If you go to Volume 2, page 102, you will see a series of graphs that show sockeye runs from rivers other than the Fraser, from Washington all the way up to Alaska. It’s not a pretty sight. From Washington up to the Central Coast, the Skeena, Nass and up to Yukon’s Klukshu and Alaska’s Alsek, most runs show a decline starting in the 1980s or early 1990s. This includes runs that migrate down the west side of Vancouver Island, away from salmon farms. Alaska doesn’t allow farms, preferring “ranching” – a strategy that floods the ocean habitat with millions of hatchery fish. These are commercially fished and marketed as “wild.” B.C.’s North Coast has never had salmon farms. The area has been subject to a moratorium since an NDP-controlled legislative committee gave its verdict on

the problem in 2008. The popular villain in those days was sea lice. Skeena MLA Robin Austin chaired the committee that called for an end to open-pen salmon farms in five years. Then-agriculture minister Pat Bell approved one NDP recommenda-

Cohen’s report makes it clear that the problem is far larger than could possibly be explained by salmon farms. tion, a moratorium on salmon farms in North Coast waters. This was after the Pacific Salmon Forum conducted its own four-year study, led by former fisheries minister John Fraser. And they agreed that salmon farms don’t explain it. Cohen’s report makes it clear that the problem is far larger than could possibly be explained by salmon farms. How about logging impact? Cohen concludes after much testimony that stream

protection has improved significantly during the time of observed sockeye decline. Impact from extra runoff due to pine beetle infestation couldn’t be evaluated. Poaching on the Fraser? Cohen didn’t get around to that. His biggest concern was climate change, warming sensitive river waters and affecting ocean conditions. During the Cohen commission hearings, the 2010 Fraser sockeye run came in gangbusters, with 35 million fish. One leading theory is that ash from an Alaska volcano fertilized the ocean, producing algae that supported more salmon feed. Could it be that salmon ranching from Alaska, Japan and elsewhere is simply depleting the food supply? That too is inconclusive. Finally, Tides Canada, a U.S. front group that diverts attention from U.S. salmon and oil tankers, spent $25,000 to publicize Cohen evidence. But only as it relates to B.C. salmon farms, and how bad they are. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com

Where was democracy and openness? I was very frustrated to learn that Dr. Darryl Plecas was appointed as the BC Liberal candidate for Abbotsford South in the coming May 2013 provincial election. As a member of the BC Liberal party and a resident of the Abbotsford South riding, there was no consultation with the riding association. This concerns me deeply. The premier of British Columbia, Christy Clark, has preached democracy and open government since she took office. My question to the premier is: Where, in the “appointment” of Dr. Plecas, is the democracy and openness that you have continually spoken about?

letters ‘Sad, dismayed, perplexed’ over poppy decision Re: The story in our local newspaper, “Legion upset about cut in poppy campaign hours at Costco store.” The times were reduced to Nov. 2, 3, 9, and 10. They had been granted the entire twoweek period in former years. “Sad, dismayed and perplexed” are the words that come to mind. Being ex-army and the son of a vet, words fail me, almost. Dear Costco: Perhaps your company is unaware of the significance that the Legion and the poppy fund have for Canadians,

steeped in the tradition born out of having fought in two world wars and numerous conflicts since. So many Canadians paid the ultimate price for what we are able to enjoy today. Your company’s decision to curb the time honoured tradition of setting up at your location has not gone unnoticed. Some points for your consideration: May I still wear a poppy when I enter and shop at your location? Will our currency, which bears Canada’s war memorial at Vimy Ridge and poppies

around the side, still be accepted? Also the coins? What about the ones with pictures of our troops in their peacekeeping roles? Of course you will accept them. It’s just business, right. When contacted by the local paper the manager said he was just following the corporate decision. Dear corporate media relations department: Give your head a shake. Perhaps your moral compass should be re-calibrated. Stand behind our vets. Support them. Rick Styles

Greater Vancouver’s average home prices should drop nearly two per cent next year after falling 5.9 per cent in 2012, according to a new housing forecast from the B.C. Real Estate Association. The weakness in the real estate market is projected to be softest in single detached houses next year, with a 2.7 per cent drop to $1.09 million in the average price paid in Greater Vancouver in 2013. Attached homes are projected to decline 0.7 per cent in average price to $555,000, while condos would gain 0.3 per cent to $443,000. The BCREA report cautions those average prices were skewed up in 2011 by a spate of high-end home sales in the Vancouver area. More typical homes in the region didn’t run up as fast as the average, nor have they slipped as much since the peak, it said, adding most home prices should remain “essentially flat” through 2013. Sales are expected to rebound by almost 14 per cent after falling by an estimated 20 per cent in 2012.

Small drop forecast for Valley From A11

Demand from buyers has ebbed since the federal government imposed tighter mortgage qualification rules. Those measures, aimed to curb rising levels of consumer debt, were equivalent to a one per cent jump in mortgage rates for first-time buyers, according to economists at the BCREA. “Market fundamentals suggest stronger sales activity ahead,” the BCREA report says in its Greater Vancouver outlook. “Full-time employment has been growing at a three to four per cent clip for several months, mortgage interest rates remain at or near historic lows and the population base continues to expand.” The province’s economy is projected to grow at a rate of 2.3 per cent next year. In the Fraser Valley real estate zone, which includes Surrey, White Rock and North Delta, the forecast calls for a 0.3 per cent drop in detached house prices to an average $600,000 in 2013, a 0.7 per cent drop in attached homes to $333,500 and a 1.4 per cent gain in apartments to $225,000. It estimates overall average residential prices in the Fraser Valley will have fallen 3.1 per cent by the end of this year. Sales are expected to rise 5.7 per cent next year after a more than 10 per cent drop in 2012.

Vegas experience comes to Mission On Saturday night, you can experience Las Vegas without having to leave the Fraser Valley. The Viva Las Vegas Spectacular is coming to Missions’s Clarke Foundation Theatre on Nov. 17, and promises to take its audience on a journey to the “City of Bright Lights.” The show combines song and dance with all the razzle-dazzle you would expect from a Vegas-style performance. The public can watch some of the best celebrity impersonators, including former World Elvis Champion Darren Lee. Lee has just finished 11 record-breaking years performing nightly at the Stratosphere Hotel & Casino’s American Superstars show, making him the longest running Elvis tribute in the history of the Las Vegas strip. He will be joined by “Magically Marilyn” whose charm, quick wit and song and dance will be a crowd pleaser. Also on hand for the show are the Premier Showgirls of Las Vegas in spectacular costumes and dazzling choreography as seen on Top Chef Las Vegas and the new Dennis Quaid CBS series Vegas.

Rounding out the cast is the Las Vegas-style illusions of Steven Best and Cassandra, who are also coming off a four-year Vegas engagement and

were featured on the Pawn Stars segment at the 2011 NHL Awards. The Viva Las Vegas Spectacular takes place at 7:30 p.m. and tickets are

$35. They are available by phone at 778-574-3050, at w w w. t i c k e t w e b . ca or at Shoppers Drug Mart, 32530 Lougheed Hwy.

Opportunities in trucking Job seekers are in luck when it comes to the commercial road transportation industry in British Columbia. Trucking companies throughout BC require professional drivers, mechanics, dispatchers and operations staff right now, which means that job seekers with experience and/ or training may find work within their preferred region. For those considering training prior to joining the workforce, demand for skilled workers in the industry is likely to grow – to 2020 and beyond. There are a number of reasons for this. For truck drivers, the industry is facing a North America-wide shortage because most are 45 years of age or older and nearing retirement. In fact, in Canada, according to a report by the Canada Trucking

FILE PHOTO

There are shortages in numerous occupations in the trucking industry while the industry itself is growing rapidly.

Human Resources Council, 58 percent of long-haul truck drivers fall in this age range. Similar shortages exist for other jobs, including diesel engine and heavy duty mechanics. Abbotsford is well situated to take ad-

vantage of this employment opportunity. Louise Yako of the B.C. Trucking Association, based in Langley, said 60 per cent of the trucking industry is based in the Lower Mainland. What’s more trucking companies require large

amounts of industrial land, and they are gradually moving eastward out of the metro area. “Abbotsford is a real hot spot for the trucking industry,” said Yako. She said the most in-demand jobs are for skilled occupations such as diesel mechanics. However, the trucking industry employs a lot of operational staff, including dispatchers, safety supervisors, fleet maintenance people and IT specialists. Aside from worker shortages, economic growth in the AsiaPacific Gateway is also driving demand for workers in transportation. This applies not only to companies in the Lower Mainland, but in other regions as well, since the AsiaPacific “Gateway” is actually made up of an integrated supply chain of airports, seaports, rail and road connections, and border crossings, from Prince Rupert to Surrey, with links supplied by trucking. Today’s trucking industry is an exciting place to be. Equipment in many companies is state of the art, meaning increased comfort and ease for drivers and opportunities for mechanics to work with technologically advanced systems, keeping both their skills and interest engaged.

The first-ever playoff victory for the Robert Bateman Timberwolves varsity squad highlighted an impressive weekend for local teams in AA high school football post-season action at B.C. Place Stadium. The T-Wolves crushed the Kalamalka Lakers of Vernon 48-0 on Friday, as running backs Ben Cummings and John Beckerleg ran wild. Cummings ran for three touchdowns, and Beckerleg scored a pair of majors, including a 60yard punt return. It’s been a while since the two Bateman speedsters have both been fully healthy at the same time, but they were in fine form on Friday. “The beauty of having those two guys, it just cranks our team speed so far up there,” said Bateman program coach Rick MacDonald, whose team is in just its second season of fullfledged senior AA football. “It’s hard to deal with for defences. Once they get in space, they’re tough to bring down.” Austen Zacher also ran for a TD, while QB Tanner Friesen threw a scoring pass to Daniel Mills to round out the Bateman scoring. Linebacker Kole Lochbaum led the defence with eight tackles. Second-round playoff action goes at UBC this week, and the T-Wolves move on to face Ballenas of Parksville at 3 p.m. on Friday. n Rick Hansen Hurricanes running back Reagan Doucette has been banged up in recent weeks, so head coach Paul Gill elected to use him sparingly in the team’s playoff opener against College Heights of Prince George. Doucette made the most of his eight carries, though, rumbling for 190 yards and four TDs in Hansen’s 54-13 victory. “We didn’t want to overuse him – we just wanted to see where he was at,” Gill noted.

The undefeated University of the Fraser Valley women’s volleyball team continued to roll, sweeping a pair

of games against the College of the Rockies last weekend. The Cascades (80), ranked No. 5

The UFV men (1-7) dropped both games against the Avalanche, falling in four sets Friday and in five sets Saturday. n The Cascades volleyball teams hit the road to face the Vancouver Island University Mariners in Nanaimo this weekend. The women’s match-up is a huge one, as the Mariners (7-1), the defending national champs and currently the CCAA’s No. 1-ranked team, battle the Cascades for first place in the PacWest conference.

The University of the Fraser Valley women's basketball team maintained the No. 2 spot in the most recent CIS national rankings released Tuesday. The Cascades (4-0), coming off a weekend sweep of the UVic Vikes, picked up two firstplace votes, but they still trail the top-ranked Windsor Lancers by a significant margin. The two-time defending national champs garnered 39 firstplace votes. The UFV men (2-2) fell from No. 4 to No. 8 in the national rankings after dropping a pair of games to UVic. The Cascades hoopsters face a stiff test on the road this week, as they visit the UBC Thunderbirds. Both UBC squads are nationally ranked – the men are No. 1, and the women are No. 10. Games go Friday (women 6 p.m., men 8 p.m.) and Saturday (women 5 p.m., men 7 p.m.) at War Memorial Gym.

Order of Abbotsford

Do you know an outstanding citizen? Someone who shows leadership and dedication? The City of Abbotsford is looking to honour these people. The Order of Abbotsford was established by Council, on February 7, 2005, to recognize individuals who bring distinction to themselves and to the City of Abbotsford in broad areas of endeavour such as: community leadership; business; labour; industry; volunteer service; professions and other occupations; research; culture; the arts; sports; and others. The City is seeking nominations for the Order of Abbotsford. Any person or organization may nominate a resident of Abbotsford. Nomination forms can be found on the City website at www.abbotsford.ca/order, or picked up from the City Clerk’s Office, fifth floor, Abbotsford City Hall, during regular business hours. Nominations for 2013 recipients must be received by December 31, 2012.

“Obviously he’s 100 per cent, with the way he performed out there. “We ran the ball pretty effectively, and our offensive line played just phenomenal.” Jasnoor Dhaliwal also ran for two TDs and Brandon Ho rushed for another, while Lucas Schwab racked up nine tackles. The Hurricanes face a stiff test in the second round, as they face the No. 1-ranked South Delta Sun Devils (Friday, 5:30 p.m., UBC). “We need to have our best game of the year defensively – they like to throw the ball,” Gill said. “But we’re playing outside, and that

could be in our favour.” n The W.J. Mouat Hawks, the top-ranked AAA team in B.C., had an opening-round bye. They’ll play West Vancouver in the quarter-finals at 8 p.m. Friday at UBC. The Highlanders are coming off a 31-11 win over Rutland in the first round. Mouat played West Van on the road on Sept. 28, winning 47-33, and Hawks coach Denis Kelly came away impressed with Highlanders QB Johnny Franklin. “They gave us a lot of trouble,” Kelly said. “Our defence is going to have to contain Franklin, because he can really run the ball.”

My LIFE

My MEDICINE is my hope My name is Tannis Charles I’m from Winnipeg and I live with Rheumatoid Arthritis

In 1997, shortly after the birth of my son Liam, I began to experience symptoms of what I would later find out to be Rheumatoid Arthritis. The pain and humiliation was excruciating, a wheelchair seemed to be my only option. Rheumatoid Arthritis had stripped me of my dignity, I was in complete despair. After 9 years of exhausting pain, I became ‘global participant #1” in a clinical trial for a new medicine that would eventually completely reverse my symptoms. Today I am walking, dancing, even hula-hooping! My husband has his wife back, my kids have their mom back and I have my life back. My future is bright and pain free, and there’s not a wheelchair in sight. www.canadapharma.org/hope Canada’s Research-Based Pharmaceutical Companies Making Canada Better

The Reach Arts Action Heritage Project will debut the play Peace by Piece – The Musical on Nov. 22 at the Matsqui Centennial Auditorium. Created and performed by an all-ages community cast from Abbotsford and Mission, the production features dance numbers from contemporary to hip hop to fusion, original songs, including a sing-along or two, and a combination of serious and funny scenes. The story imagines a different Abbotsford – a world not too far beyond our grasp. Director/dramatist Freddy Latham and dancer/choreographer Lorissa Arndt, were inspired by the work of the community cast and the “pieces” that have been created.

Funded in part by a grant from the BC Arts Council, Peace by Piece – The Musical takes some of its inspiration from the exhibition Illuminating Peace by Amy Loewan currently showing at The Reach Gallery Museum Abbotsford. “Loewan’s list of words that describe peace were a part of our discussions before we got to writing,” said Latham. “We used them as a filter, as well as drawing from the issues and ideas that each cast member brought to the process.” She said themes explored include bullying, equality, freedom, diversity, gratitude, compassion, creativity and the power of one to make a difference. Local singer/song-writers Liisa

Nessim, Corey Primus, Cheryl Kinchen Epp and Jolie Gardner will be performing their original works in the play. “My song, Peace is Possible, was written several years ago and never really had a home or a vehicle. The song is obviously about peace, a concept that always resonates with me,” said Primus. Peace by Piece runs Nov. 22 at Matsqui Centennial Auditorium, 32315 South Fraser Way, with a matinee performance at noon and an evening performance at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $2 and are on sale now at The Reach. For information contact Kat Wahamaa at aahproject@ thereach.ca. For tickets contact The Reach at 604-864-8087.

Your dream home or a bad dream?

Duhra

You’ve signed a contract to buy or sell a home, but do you really know what is included in your deal? In many cases the buyers and sellers concentrate their

focus on the price, and lose sight of the details that are very important to the deal itself. When disputes arise between the parties involving the

inclusion or exclusion of items, it’s usually because the buyers are surprised to see that an item they really liked is missing from the property on the day they move in.

For example, a buyer may discover that the beautiful fridge seen when they viewed the home is not included in the purchase price. The same could be said

about a wall mounted flat screen television, a storage shed, or a children’s swing set that was in the back yard during the time of viewing. In such disputes, the courts

will start by looking at the contract to see what items are included in the deal. It is impractical for the contract to list every window, doorknob and roof shingle; therefore when drafting the contracts, you must understand the basic legal principles of chattels and fixtures. The general rule in property transactions is that if the contract makes no specific mention of an item, and the item meets the definition of a chattel, then the seller is free to take the item. A chattel is any movable item which is neither land, nor permanently attached to the property, or any buildings. For example, if a fridge has an icemaker and thus is plumbed into the house, it is a fixture. If the fridge is just plugged in, it is merely a chattel. A wallmounting bracket holding the television is a fixture, but if the television itself only sits on the bracket, it will likely be considered a chattel. A buyer may argue that a shed is a building, and thus a fixture, but courts have found sheds to be temporary structures and thus chattels. Similarly a swing set that sits in the yard on its own weight is considered to be a chattel. If the shed or swing set is secured into the ground by bolts then they would be considered fixtures and would form part of the property. Everyone is free to include or exclude any item commonly found at the property as long as the parties explicitly write it into the contract. If the parties remain silent and do not address whether an item is part of the contract, the common law rules of chattels and fixtures will apply. Your realtor and real estate lawyer can help you understand the terms of your real estate contract so that your dream home is all you expected it to be when you move in!

ABBOTSFORD

Show you care with a little hair.

Each year in the month of November, thousands of men unite on the battleground of the upper lip in the fight against prostate cancer. The term “Movember” has gained momentum over the past few years, and serves as an initiative to raise vital funds towards the awareness of men’s health. Armed with anything from beginner whiskers to a full blown fu manchu, men of all ages effectively become month-long advocates for the cause. The marathon begins on the first day of November, when clean-shaven faces refuse the razors, and continues until the end of the month. Moustaches are the moo in Abbotsford, as residents actively participate in raising awareness and funds towards the research of prostate cancer. Chairman of the Abbotsford Prostate Support and Awareness Group, Val Strijack, helps organize monthly meetings where prostate patients and survivors can openly discuss their issues and experiences. He believes the group helps

to provide information, support and mitigate feelings of isolation and loneliness that cancer evokes. Having spent time with many men affected by prostate cancer, Strijack sees Movember as a way to encourage youth to take action before it’s too late. “Movember helps to provide a venue for younger men to gain knowledge that is useful for their screening decision,” says Strijack. “Awareness can lead to early screening and a greater chance for successful treatment.” If you can’t grow a Mo, there is now an option for kids to get involved in the movement. In 2011, Abbotsford businessman Rob Studiman decided that the milk moustaches should make a comeback in a major way. He dreamed up the idea for a “Milkvember” fundraiser that allows kids from participating schools to sell cartons of milk, and donate profits to the Canadian Cancer Society. When Studiman decided to invite local businesses to participate, he first went to Save-On Foods manager, Gord Gautier, who instantly offered his support.

“It is a way for kids to give back to the community and help raise awareness for prostate cancer,” says Gautier. “Rob and I are hoping that other people will notice the positive message, and more schools will jump on board for next year.” At this point Prince Charles Elementary School and W.J. Mouat Secondary are involved, as well as the Whatcom and Sumas Save-On Foods locations. Every Wednesday throughout the month of November, the schools will sell milk for $1 per carton, with 40 cents of each sale donated to milkvember.com. In addition, both Save-On Foods locations have added a special in-store milk promotion, with partial proceeds of every 250ml milk carton donated to the cause. “Since we are just starting off, our goal this year is to raise $1,000,” says Studiman, “but through networking and the involvement of more schools and businesses, the goal next year is to raise $10,000 towards prostate cancer awareness.” Throughout the month-long moustache-fest now known as “Movember,” either go mo-free with milk, or show you care with a little hair.

Between the vines Cooking with wine: Five tips to guide you

with Kathleen Rake

NAME> Larry AGE> 31 y STUDYING> Major: Historns

“I love to cook with wine; sometimes I even put it in the food.” That’s what a magnet on my stove reads. And it’s true.

Q&A What do you like best about UFV? I like taking the bus to campus early in the morning and seeing the lively community that is UFV come alive.

What’s your favourite class so far? History 396–Canadian Jewish History. It is quite exciting to learn about this piece of the Canadian mosaic as I have not really known about it until now.

Where is the most awesome place on campus? 101.7 CIVL Radio. Campus and community radio has been the most exciting and fulfilling thing I have ever gotten involved with here in Abbotsford other than going to UFV.

What’s your dream job after graduation? Working for the CBC Radio. We’ll see about that, but it could happen!

Use three words to describe yourself: Witty, clever and adaptable.

What tip would you give to a brand new UFV student? Do not be afraid to get involved with a student group/association. It is the best way to make friends and to become a part of the campus community.

1. Never cook with a wine you’re not willing to drink on its own. If you don’t like the flavour of the wine while it’s in your glass, you’re not going to like it as it concentrates in your dish.

4. Price doesn’t matter. If you’re happy sipping a $9 bottle of Merlot, then put some in the stew. I try to use the same wine in my cooking as I do on the table when serving dinner. If, however, your special occasion calls for a $65 bottle of Burgundy in your glass, you might hesitate pouring a bottle of that same wine into the pot—I know I would. Find a good-drinking value-priced Pinot Noir instead.

2. Choose dry wines for savoury dishes and sweet wines for sweet dishes. Unless you’re looking to dash a particular quick bit of sweet into your savoury, you’ll be happier taking my suggestion. Just remember that a fruity wine is not necessarily sweet.

5. Use what you have. If the recipe calls for a Bordeaux-style red wine, but all you have is an Australian Shiraz, use it. If you serve the same wine at the table, everything will be tied together and you’ll have your new take on an old dish.

So, how do you pick a wine to use in your cooking? Here are five tips to guide you.

icatio Minor: Media/Commun

You co u our ne ld be xt UFV is for ME studen Enter t. at my .ufv.c Winne a r recei ves a UFV h oodie!

3. Big wines for big, bold dishes, lighter wines for lighter, more delicate dishes. Your ingredients, sauces and cooking methods all contribute to the weight of your food. For example, a white fish poached in wine on top of the stove calls for a much lighter wine than braised beef with root vegetables.

His strong understanding of the fast-paced lifestyle of today’s students has helped Manuel, and those who work with him, to continue to find ways to engage students during their four-year stay at Mouat. “Students in the 21st century need to learn how to learn. We need to get them thinking, solving real-life problems, and give them opportunities to serve their communities,” explains Manuel. “At the same time, we need to graduate women and men of character; citizens committed to doing what’s right regardless of what situation they find themselves in.”

e-principal W. J. Mouat Vic

His position as vice-principal has not only presented him with the opportunity to teach, but also the privilege to learn.

When asked what makes his job worthwhile, vice-principal of W.J. Mouat, Vijay Manuel, answers simply “the kids.”

“In a school, you have the opportunity to make a difference in someone’s life every day,” says Manuel. “Students have a huge effect on me every day as well; watching students learn and grow is so inspirational.”

Manuel has spent the past three years in his current position with the secondary school, and says he “loves the energy of working with students.” Furthermore, he was “thrilled at the opportunity to work with the Mouat team,” whom he had heard great things about prior to jumping on board.

WJ Mouat has consistently cultivated an environment of drive, pride, and positive influence, producing some top scholars, athletes and members of society. Manuel says that there is “nothing more rewarding than seeing a student impacting their world first as a student, and then as an adult in the years after high school.”

While some may think that his position of authority among youth would make him difficult to relate to, that’s not the case. Manuel often finds himself “staying connected in positive environments,” by spending time with kids in the hallways, in classrooms, in the gym and in leadership meetings.

At the end of the school day, when the bell has rung and kids are heading home, Manuel believes that if educators have “found ways to help students dream big dreams, and then helped them to make those dreams become a reality, they have done their jobs well.”

Changing the face of men’s health

Sick of Colds and Flu? I teach college level and in the winter...I was catching five, six colds a year... I was seriously considering retirement. My sister suggested Immuno-Care. Well I have not caught a single cold since then. I have been cold free for three consecutive winters now... I don’t think I would dare face another Canadian winter without it. A.L. PQ

Fight Back with Plant Sterols! If you find yourself running for cover every time someone coughs, or missing days of work due to chronic colds and flu, then your immune system may need help. Plant sterols help balance the immune system to fight chronic colds and flu, especially in the winter months when our immune systems can be under constant attack. Plant sterols are essential to the body, but like vitamin C, the body cannot synthesize them, they have to be ingested. However,, due to the modern processing of food, today’ss diets tend to be deficient in sterols.

Immuno-Care® is a one-a-day

plant sterol supplement clinically tested and proven to support the body against colds, flu, seasonal allergies, infection, inflammation and the symptoms of autoimmune diseases.

Appy Holiday! written by Chef Jeff Massey restaurant 62

Cocktail parties making a huge resurgence in popularity over the last few years.

Holiday season is here again. Restaurant 62 and r62 catering are busy with parties every night and I am sure you are too. We have noticed cocktail parties making a huge resurgence in popularity over the last few years. You may still have time to book with a local caterer, but if you are planning on doing the cooking and hosting on your own, here are a few things to keep in mind: Before guests arrive, try to have a few platters of food out. Nuts, olives, cheese and fruit are easy to

assemble. You can replenish the plates throughout the party so just put out a bit at a time. All of your other food should be prepared to heat and assemble. Cut puff pastry into round bite-sized pieces to put sliced duck or beef on top of and use an aioli or jam to hold the meat in place. Some of our favourite combinations are goat cheese with apricot compote or lamb with Dijon and balsamic onions. Try to have something for everyone. Common allergies are gluten, dairy and shellfish so prepare a few dishes with that in mind. For setting up a bar, estimate approximately 3 drinks per person. Premixing a cocktail in a pitcher is great if you don’t have a bartender. This will give you more time to visit with your guests instead of rushing off

myfood to mix a drink for each new arrival. Narrow your choice to just one white wine and one red wine for the party; that way you will be able to top up people’s glasses without the worry of mixing different bottles. Choose food-friendly wines that go with the majority of the food you are serving. Safe bets are Pinot Grigios for your white wines and blended red wines with low tannins. Lastly, as cliché as it sounds: make sure you are having fun. Your mood will set the tone of the evening and besides, why else do you want to throw a party?

Modern glitz and glamour isn't about satin and sequins; it's about sophisticated elegance. The little black dress gets an update in a flapper-style design that is more curve-hugging than its predecessor, while geometrics and animal prints add interest in dresses than can go from the boardroom to the dance floor with a few minor changes. And when it comes to the guys, nothing says dapper more than a pocket handkerchief and a wool scarf paired with a checked blazer.

B.B. stands for “Beauty Balm”. They are multi-tasking creams that are meant to replace serums, moisturizers, primers, foundations and sometimes sun protection. B.B. creams are light coverage foundations, sheer, like tinted moisturizers, but with the skin`s health in mind. They work like primers, some are pearlescent, contain anti-oxidants, have anti-aging collagen boosters, are mattifying, and have UV protection.

The power of colour Here is a creative and easy way to add bright colors to your hair with little or no commitment! Simply, brush on the fun!! Splat Washables, available at Shoppers Drug Mart, come with an easy to use applicator brush. It is not a gel and does not dry hard on your hair, so you can comb and style as you normally would. This is a very userfriendly product that is applied with an applicator brush, and washes out of most peoples` hair in one shampoo. If you have pre-lightened hair, the colors tend to be more vivid and could take several shampoos to wash out. After application, a light mist of hair spray will prevent rub-off. Splat Washables are available in four beautiful, bright shades!

Santa’s workshop likely devotes an entire floor to gift wrap, ribbon, bows and bags. Intricately wrapped presents sustain the suspense of the treasure beneath the paper. In addition, there’s something special for recipients when a gift is adorned in ribbon and bows. However, the average gift giver cannot recreate Santa’s wrapping room when the time comes to wrap gifts. But a person may be able to fashion a compact wrapping station in a seldom-used corner.

Many people long to have an area where they can create wrapping magic for holiday gifts, birthday presents and other tokens of appreciation throughout the year. However, with limited space, tall rolls of gift

paper may have been stashed in the back of a closet or tucked under a bed, making them inconvenient to use once it is time to wrap gifts. With just a few feet of space, anyone can create a compact gift wrapping station that, while free of fancy bells and whistles, has all that’s needed to get the job done. The first step in creating your wrapping station is to find a spot that is out of the way but enables you to easily keep inventory of paper and ribbons. The back of a door or behind the door often provides adequate space to store supplies, and the width of a door might be the right size for the average roll of wrapping paper. If the door is too narrow, the rolls can be hung vertically instead of horizontally. Fortunately, gift wrap is narrow and doesn’t take up much space on its own. Therefore, it usually can be

'Tis the seaSon

Create your own gift wrapping station

Wooden dowels are an inexpensive yet valuable supply. Rolls of wrapping paper can be slid on the dowels and hung horizontally on hooks protruding from a door or wall. For a vertical installation, make a wooden frame the width and length that will be needed. Drill holes in the frame on the top and bottom through which the dowels can be fed. Then drill small holes on the ends of the dowels. Use cabinet door handles or drawer pulls on the end that are wider than the holes made in the wooden frame. This way the drawer pulls can be unscrewed at the top to remove the dowels and refill with a fresh roll of paper. Then the knobs can be screwed back on to prevent the dowels from falling through the wooden frame. Those who are a bit more handy may want to paint and attach a piece of plywood to

the door on hinges that can be folded up and locked into place with a hook when not needed, but then put down to serve as a shelf on which the wrapping can be done. Be sure to have a shallow ledge that protrudes somewhat under the shelf to offer support when the shelf is in the open position.

Friday: 10am-9pm Saturday: 10am-6pm Sunday 10am-4pm Chilliwack Heritage Park on Luckakuck Way (Exit 116)

A separate dowel can be used to keep rolls of ribbon neat and within reach. Scissors hung on a hook or attached to a string will ensure that youâ€™re never hunting for scissors under rolls of wrapping paper. It also keeps the scissors safely out of reach of young children.

If desired, a tape dispenser can be mounted on the wall or door as well, enabling onehanded measuring and cutting of the tape. Get creative with your homemade wrapping station and then enjoy how efficiently you can wrap gifts.
