Fugitive possibly on the way to Grand Forks

Gazette Staff

A federal parolee who went missing from a communitybased residential facility in Kamloops could be on his way to Grand Forks.

A Canada-wide warrant has been issued for Andrew Robert Hardenstine, 33, who went missing from a community-based residential facility in Kam loops on Jan. 14.

He was serving a three-year, eight-month sentence on two convictions for Possession of Drugs for the Purpose of Trafficking and a weapons-related offence when he was paroled in January.

“Hardenstine is five foot, nine inches (173 cm) tall and weighs approximately 200 pounds (91 kg). He has a shaved head (brown hair) and

blue eyes. The top of his left ring finger and left little finger are amputated and he has a full ‘sleeve’ tattoo on his left and right arm,” RCMP said.

“The Kamloops RCMP believe that Hardenstine may have left the central interior and may be headed to the Grand Forks area or to the Lower Mainland, where he is known to have associates involved in the drug subculture.

“Hardenstine has a lengthy criminal record, including incidents of violence against people. Members of the public are cautioned not to approach or apprehend Hardenstine if he is observed,” RCMP went on to say.

Kamloops RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Grant Learned said that as of Monday afternoon, Harden-

stine was still at large.

Anyone with information on his current location can call Grand Forks RCMP at 250442-8288 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Asbestos found, Winnie Hotel demolition delayed

JIM HOLTZ

For the Grand Forks Gazette

The delay in the demolition of the Winnipeg Hotel is only temporary according to Summerland developer Ramesh Rikhi.

WorksafeBC required a second inspection of the hotel before demolition could begin, Rikhi said. “We were ready to demolish it and we had some initial tests done on the gyproc and the mud and it came back clean, so we sent the copies in to Worksafe. They said, ‘No it is not enough,’ so we hired a company in Kelowna, and they did over 100 spots in the building and they found some asbestos in the lino and the gyproc and also in the mud, and so we have to get some remedial work done before we move on to the demolition of the building.”

Rikhi said his company, Rikhi Developments Corp., considered several options at that point.

“We were of two minds, whether to let the building stand and rent out some of the spaces for the time being (or not), but in the end we decided to go ahead and demolish it and put up a new building. We could open up the building just the way it is, but the building is just so bad that it just doesn’t look good to have any business in there right now. That’s all the hold-up is.”

Rikhi said that it was necessary to consider their options carefully because of the unanticipated expense of the remediation that must be done before demolition can begin.

“The remedial work is going to cost almost as much as we paid for the property the way it sounds,” he said. Nevertheless, he is confidant that the new liquor store his company is planning for the property will be up and running before tourist season. “We have two or three courses of action, and we are hoping to decide by next Friday,” he said. “It will probably take about a month to take the building down, so we are looking at the end of March and then April and May to build the new building and hopefully by the

end of May or the early part of June we will open it up.”

Rikhi added that someone may be interested in salvaging some of the wood from the old hotel, rather than having it simply added to the landfill. He said anyone interested in wood salvage should call him at 250-494-2891.

The Habitat for Humanity Boundary multiplex on 72nd Avenue in Grand Forks has earned gold certification from Built Green Canada.

The multiplex earned an Energuide rating of 84, gold certification, and conforms to environmental standards.

“We were able to achieve (gold certification) by paying particularly close attention to our building envelope and making sure it was sealed really well,” explained Habitat for Humanity executive director Rick Friesen. “We put a high-efficiency boiler system in with radiant, inslab heating and domestic hot water from the same boiler. Our lighting fixtures are all Energy Star rated and our highest wattage light bulb in the building is 13 watts, so it should really reduce the residents’ expenses that way.”

Friesen also said that excess insulation over code requirements was added as well.

While it has been stated that the multiplex is the most energy effi-

cient building in Grand Fork, Friesen hesitated to anoint it as such.

“I suspect it is definitely one of the highest energy-efficient buildings in our community,” he said, adding that he hopes the multiplex will serve as a blueprint for future construction in the area.

“Habitat for Humanity Boundary has committed to all of our future (projects) being built to Built Green Canada standards. We definitely will be continuing to build at this level,” Friesen stated. “Our desire is to see the provincial building code come up to this level as well so it’s not an exceptional thing but a normal thing.”

The complex was mainly in partnership with the province’s job creation program with some assistance from the multiplex’s residents, who contributed volunteer, “sweat equity,” time.

According to the Built Green website, its purpose is to “encourage, enable and recognize responsible residential home construction practices” in five areas of focus: resource efficiency, comfort, a healthy environment, durability and enhanced and retained value.

z Our View

Lock your cars Some classify Grand Forks as a small town with the worries of bigger municipalities something that isn’t relevant.

“Let the people in the big cities worry about locking their doors and worry about crime,” some might say.

But while something like locking your front or car door might seem unnecessary in a place like Grand Forks, Greenwood or Christina Lake, it really is common sense to do so, despite what others may think.

Grand Forks RCMP are again warning of car break-ins in the area – the latest taking place in the Valmar/McCallum View Drive area, with many incidents occurring on Jan. 25.

Someone or some people are going around and coming upon unlocked cars, are breaking in and stealing items. No car seems immune.

In one recent incident, a measly amount of change was stolen.

There was also some incidents that happened back in mid-December and again, in some instances change was taken.

Police warn residents on numerous occasions – not just after the seeming waves of car breakins – to lock their car doors and to either take valuables out of the vehicle or at least keep them out of sight.

There is a chance that no one will break into your vehicle but as proven last week and other previous times, there is a chance someone could.

What do people have to lose by locking up?

Does someone get a flu shot because they want to get the flu or so they don’t get it?

Does someone purchase vehicle insurance because they know they will get into an accident or because they want to be prepared in the event there is an accident?

Speaking of car insurance, there’s another reason to lock up. To keep rates down.

Make it harder for thieves.

Question of the Week

from www.grandforksgazette.ca With Robbie Burns Day on Friday (Jan. 25), have you or will you try haggis?

YES 27%

Being of Chinese descent, I’ve eaten my fair share of less-than-savoury sounding foods.

Chicken gizzards and liver were probably the items I’ve eaten that sound the least appealing but to be honest, it wasn’t bad and I never got ill after eating said items.

I had the opportunity last Friday to try another dish that some have issue with, haggis.

The traditional Scottish dish was served at the local Robbie Burns Day celebration and while some may think the ingredients – sheep heart, liver and lungs, onion, oatmeal, spices simmered in an animal’s stomach or casing, according to online recipes – don’t sound appealing, it was very tasty. It’s like liver pate in my estimation, which some

z Yu Speak

KARL YU

people also find objectionable.

The thought of guts, entrails and innards as food might make the squeamish squirm even more but really shouldn’t.

It’s not like organs in haggis aren’t cooked and seasoning is added to give flavour.

Too often, people let the mental aspect take over and because they can’t get over the hang ups, miss out on eating something really tasty.

Seventy-three-per-cent of respondents in last week’s poll on www.grandforksgazette.ca said they haven’t or wouldn’t

try haggis but I wonder if you served it to them without telling them what it was, would they object to it?

A lot of people don’t like or wouldn’t try escargot, as it is cooked snails in garlic butter sauce, but I’ve tried it and if you like clams or oysters, chances are you’ll like the French appetizer.

The same goes for sushi and octopus, which really doesn’t have a flavour at all if you ask me. I’m not going to say I’ll eat everything and anything but I’m not going to let ingredients, or the fact that it consists of organs, get in the way of sampling such food.

It’s dangerous to judge something at face value, as the proverbial cover might not compare to the story contained within the book.

LETTERS z B.C. POLITICS

Candidates dropping out without chance to earn votes Editor: Re: BC NDP BoundarySimilkameen candidate Basso bows out of race (story, Jan. 23 issue of the Grand Forks Gazette) The incidents that have occurred over the past couple of weeks have denigrated the rights of basic democracy, a fundamental tenet of Canadian sovereignty.

Individuals have taken it upon themselves to be judge, jury and in their minds God, in making decisions that they felt were for the betterment of the local people.

These two candidates have pulled from the race without having the opportunity to prove, through traditional campaigning, to the constituents of the Boundary-Similkameen why they wanted to earn our vote. Who has lost here are the constituents of the BoundarySimilkameen and our democratic right.

If the information that was received by Mr. Tsakumis conceals an illegal act, then the RCMP should be notified, if not then we should be asking where this information came from and how did Mr. Tsakumis get it?

Was this an act of righteousness initiated to reduce the inevitable vote splitting if Mr. Slater ran as an Independent and Ms. Basso as a strong NDP

candidate?

Instead of going through the process of listening to all candidates on their philosophies and policies we resort to smear and fear campaigns.

We also have to ask, will current and future political candidates be similarly vetted and ultimately receive his yea or nay?

This is a very sad time for democracy for the constituents of the Boundary-Similkameen as well as the province.

No matter what happens in the upcoming election the best person for the job will not be freely elected by the people.

Yours truly, Fred Marshall, Midway

z B.C. POLITICS

Anger at Slater and Liberals Editor: John Slater no longer has the B.C. Liberal party’s support and he won’t be running as an independent after all.

After years of frustration with the governing Liberals, we might be inclined to support a truly independent candidate but Mr. Slater would not be that person even if he were running.

It is time to demand accountability from our MLAs. Where was our MLA when it counted?

We have to remember the following BC Liberal disgraces and ask, why didn’t we hear a word of dissention from any Liberal MLAs, Slater included?

The HST fiasco, the BC Rail scandal, mismanagement of MLA expense accounts, no oversight of ICBC ($26 million in severance for 250 unnecessary management jobs), poor oversight of BC Ferries, legisla-

z OPINION tion forcing the wireless smart meter program on BC Hydro customers, MSP premiums directed to general revenue instead of health care, sweet deals and uncontrolled spending at BC Housing, run-of-river hydro projects driving up electricity costs, seemingly firing a competent auditor general for exposing Liberal dirty secrets.

This is just some of what we know.

Isn’t it ironic now, that Mr. Slater is getting the boot by the BC Liberals? Wasn’t former nominee Joe Cardoso – chosen by party members – unceremoniously dumped and replaced

by Mr. Slater before the last election? You know what they say about karma …

Sincerely, Paul McCavour and Julie Turner, Osoyoos, B.C.

z B.C. POLITICS

No way to run things Editor: You cannot run a government when the legislature sits just 44 days a year.

The referendum to abolish the HST was held in Aug. 2011, yet because the legislature has only sat 44 days, we are still paying this unfair tax. The BC Liberals put in this sneaky tax after campaigning the last election that they would not put it in.

We cannot trust them. Now, after you and I and small business suffered significant losses due to the HST, Christy Clark will eliminate it just before the next election.

This is no way to run a government.

A Darkwoods tale

Darkwoods. The name conjures up fairy tale images of a mysterious nature but the Darkwoods mentioned at a recent city council meeting is not the refuge of outlaws or ROY RONAGHAN witches. It’s real and it’s located a few hours drive away.

Darkwoods is a 55,000 hectare (135,907 acres) forested area on the west side of Kootenay Lake between Nelson, Salmo and Creston with an interesting history.

Duke Carl Herzog von Wertemberg, a German aristocrat, bought the land in 1967 as a potential refuge against Soviet expansion for he and his family. The Duke did permit some logging to go on while he owned the property.

Darkwoods is home to 19 confirmed threatened or endangered species including grizzly bears and mountain caribou and stands of old-growth forest.

Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) bought Darkwoods from the Duke in 2008 for $125 million with assistance in the amount of $25 million from the federal government. The purchase gained notoriety as the largest single private land conservation acquisition in Canadian history.

NCC is now using Darkwoods as an income generator in the lucrative carbon market and that is why it was mentioned at the city council meeting.

In 2008 the municipalities within the Kootenay and the Boundary region signed a Climate Action Charter that committed them to being carbon neutral with respect to their operations by 2012.

They agreed to measure their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; reduce those emissions a much as possible; balance the remaining emissions through the purchase of carbon offsets; and report publicly on the actions taken.

Carbon Neutral Kootenays (CNK) began in 2008 when the chairs of the Kootenay-Boundary, Central Kootenay, and East Kootenay decided to work collaboratively in their efforts to become carbon neutral.

A project team was created to facilitate the work of 31 local governments and First Nations people within the three regional districts. A part of the team’s work is to purchase offsets.

Negotiations between NCC and CNK on the price per tonne to be charged for the sequestration of carbon dioxide in Darkwoods are in their final stages.

When the government launched the carbon neutral program it created Pacific Carbon Trust (PCT) – a Crown corporation set up by the government in 2008 – with responsibility for buying carbon offsets at $25 per tonne.

PCT was required to invest the money it received in projects intended to reduce GHG emissions anywhere in B.C. that met a requirement called additionality.

Additionality means that any project supported by PCT must face economic, investment or technological barriers that prevent it from reducing its carbon footprint.

What is intriguing about the Darkwoods investment is that it does not qualify under the “additionality” criteria because there are no known barriers to NCC’s purchase of the property.

A second concern about the investment in Darkwoods comes from a report that PCT bought 403,112 tonnes of credits from Darkwoods at an estimated price of $5.70 per tonne, yet the 31 local governments in the CNK group will likely be paying a price closer to $25 per tonne.

Is the Darkwoods deal as good as it sounds? Are the stakeholders in the CNK getting the best deal possible? Why did CNK not invest in a project that fitted the PCT “additionality” requirement such as a wind or solar conversion industry?

The answers to such questions will only be known when PCT, NCC or CNK fully disclose the information on the project and the reasons for buying offsets from a 50-year -old conservancy that states that it “protects areas of natural diversity for their intrinsic value and for the benefit of our children and those after them.”

z FIRST RESPONDERS

Grand Forks Fire Rescue seeking more volunteers

JIM HOLTZ

For the Grand Forks Gazette

Grand Forks Fire Chief Dale Heriot is recruiting more firefighters.

The local fire halls could use a few more volunteers to make sure that all calls can be responded to with an appropriate number of men and amount of equipment.

“We have a range that we like to operate within and we are a couple of firefighters below that right now,” Heriot said. “We would be looking to bring on possibly six to eight new volunteers.

That would put us to the top end of our number.” The problem isn’t new and has to do with some of the active volunteers working out of town. “When they’re out of town for two weeks and back in for one, those two weeks they’re out, then we’re down a guy for each one of them. So we need to address that issue,” Heriot said.

He added that some of the outlying fire halls are especially in need of extra volunteers and he is looking for individuals who live within five kilometres of their local hall.

“We have some firefighters that live

The Boundary Organic Producer’s Association

Brent & Mary 250 - 442 - 2388 www.binoranch.com

We are Brent and Mary Hummel, small time farmers who had other lives where we use to make money. Over the past several years we have become very concerned about where our food comes from, and if it really is food? Our goal is to eat a little more healthy. One of the ways we do that is to grow our own food.

We want every one to be able to make wise eating choices that are affordable. We will never be able to supply the world, but we can start by offering our small corner of the world healthy alternatives. From home grown organic lamb, to weaner pigs and butcher hogs, we are a small, diversified working farm that truly cares about our animals and your satisfaction. All of our critters have great food and lots of room to roam. Our lambs are organic and our weaner pigs are partially raised on dairy goat milk, for a delicious flavour.

Buy & Board Affordable healthy food should be available, but why isn’t it? We believe that everybody should have the opportunity to eat organic or naturally grown meat, that is not force fed and filled with hormones and antibiotics. I could gross you out with stories of store bought meat, but you already know. Shelling out all your money at one time, if you are like a lot of us, can be painful if you live pay cheque to pay cheque.

What I mean is if a lamb is $5 to $15 dollars a pound, that is a $250 to $300 out of pocket expense. A pig is $300 to $350 out of pocket right now.

What if you really would like to grow your own food, but don’t have the land to raise the critter!!! We can help you with that.

Spectacular pasture land at B in O Ranch

So how can we help?

We can help the average working folks by being a little creative and flexible. Lets say I have a $300 lamb for sale, and you want that lamb. You give me $50 for the purchase of the lamb and $40 a month for 6 or 7 months to grow your lamb. I received my $290 for my lamb, and you’ve got your organic lamb in a way that was affordable.

Also if you only wanted 1/2 a lamb, you could do this with a friend and share the cost.

We can also do this with pigs. Buy a weaner pig for $80, pay us $50 a month for five or six months until piggy is the desired size, 75 to 100 pounds per side. Do that with a friend and you end up with a full freezer that did not break the bank.

What about slaughter and a truck to get your meat to a butcher? No problem we can help with that as well for a fee. With a little help you can now afford home grown meat.

B in O Ranch, the farm that everyone can share!

Program moves women through music and dance Busy women today find it more and more difficult to take that hour for self care each day.

The dizzying array of demands may leave our needs on the back burner and though we know it’s important to take care of ourselves, sometimes it just seems too tall an order.

Including a health and fitness program in our daily routine increases our sense of well being, keeps us healthier, and makes it easier to meet the demands of life.

Imagine an exercise where you can take that time to reconnect with yourself, with body, with breath, with rhythm and movement.

Exercise that includes a good sweat, some fun dance moves, connection with other women, and great world music that inspires, moves and invigorates.

Active lifestyle benefits all Whoever said that bad things come in threes couldn’t have been talking about leading a healthy lifestyle! In terms of positive lifestyle choices, “the big three” refers to the three keys to living well and achieving health benefits: healthy eating, living smoke-free and regular physical activity, including participating in sport.

Physical recreation and fitness contribute to a full and meaningful life for all ages.

Not only that, regular physical activity is one of the very best methods of health insurance for individuals.

Canadians are enjoying longer life spans and better health than ever before.

From the cradle to the golden years, active living makes life better.

For children, regular physical activity is essential for healthy growth and development.

A healthy pregnancy and birth, followed by a child’s healthy growth and development during the first years of life, will have long-lasting benefits.

Helping to ensure that children and adolescents stay healthy is important for their individual development! Keep your children active and strive to instill a lifetime of healthy eating habits by following Canada’s Food Guide.

Research studies show that more more than half of Canadian children and youth are not active enough for optimal growth and development.

For adults, pursuing an active lifestyle improves health and well-being by reducing stress, strengthening the heart and lungs, increasing energy levels, helping maintain and achieve a healthy body weight and generally improving your outlook on life.

Regular physical activity prolongs independent living for seniors.

Weight-bearing physical activity reduces the rate of bone loss associated with osteoporosis and regular physical activity maintains strength and flexibility, balance and coordination and can help reduce the risk of falls.

Traditional

Shotokan Karate Keep fit with karate

Karate is a wonderful way to keep fit both mentally and physically.

The deep stances, explosive kicks and strikes keep the body toned and the quick muscle fibers exercised.

Karate is designed to teach its students how to defend themselves without using weapons and because of this, every part of the body, from the tip of a finger to the ball of a foot, is exercised.

Karate is a full body work out.

The goal in karate is to surpass oneself and therefore all ages, shapes and sizes are able to practice.

People with back injuries for instance often say karate helps to keep pain at bay and to strengthen the supporting muscles around the injury. In addition to toning and strengthening the body, karate also pushes the boundaries of the mind.

From simply remembering moves, to creating a heightened body awareness, to being asked to perform in front of others, karate improves memory, confidence, courage and discipline. Above all, karate is one large world-wide family full of support, effort and fun!

Speeding up metabolism

Dieters are often aware of metabolism and its effect on an individual’s weight.

Metabolism is a process that serves a host of important functions, including converting food and drink into energy and using energy to construct certain components of cells.

For the perpetual dieter, metabolism can be a natural-born enemy, a process that simply isn’t fast enough for dieters to lose weight.

Even more frustrating, a person’s metabolism can hinge on genetics and gender. People may inherit a speedy or slow metabolism.

Gender plays a large role considering men have a tendency to burn more calories than women, even while resting. Those who inherited a speedy metabolism are often the people who can seemingly eat whatever they choose without gaining a pound.

But gaining a faster metabolism isn’t just for men or those who inherited a speedier metabolism at birth. In fact, there are several healthy ways to speed up metabolism.

Emphasize intensity. Daily exercise is great, but high-intensity daily exercise will prove more effective at speeding up your metabolism. Lowor moderate-intensity workouts don’t pack the same punch as high-intensity workouts, which produce a longer increase in resting metabolic rate. Sign up for a Zumba or spin class at your gym, both of which are the kind of high-intensity cardiovascular workout that can speed up your metabolism.

Eat more protein. Protein can serve many purposes for people trying to lose weight. Protein has a tendency to make you feel full when you eat it, reducing the likelihood that you will overeat. In addition, the body burns more calories when digesting protein than it does while digesting fats or carbohydrates. Turkey, low-fat dairy products, fish, nuts and beans are great sources of protein, which should not be all you eat but can be used as a periodic replacement for other foods that may slow down your metabolism.

Stay hydrated. Your metabolism will likely

Tanning Studio

slow down if you allow yourself to get dehydrated. When the body does not have enough water, several of its functions, including its ability to burn calories, slow down. Muscles are roughly 70 per cent water, so if they are not fully hydrated they cannot generate energy, affecting your metabolism. In addition, the body is not as effective at using fat as fuel when it is dehydrated, further slowing your metabolism.

Staying hydrated is as easy as drinking enough water throughout the day. How much water an individual needs to stay hydrated is open to debate among medical professionals, but one study found that adults who drink eight or more glasses of water per day burned more calories than those who drank four glasses of water per day.

Another wave of vehicle break-ins has started up again, say Grand Forks RCMP, this time in the Valmar area.

There have been a number of situations like this since last year followed by periods of inactivity, followed by another wave it seems.

On Jan. 25, a theft from a motor vehicle was reported on McCallum View Drive, that police estimate happened overnight.

“Stolen was a camouflage rangefinder valued at about $220,” said Grand Forks RCMP’s Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison.

Also on Jan. 25 (reported at 9:06 a.m.) was a theft from a garage on McCallum View Drive of $100 worth of hand tools and a backpack, which Harrison said was later recovered and returned to the owner.

Yet again on Jan. 25, in an incident reported at 9:30 a.m., a theft from a motor vehicle at Pineview Crescent. Two packages of cigarettes were stolen and the backpack from the previous incident was recovered at this location.

On the same day on 81st Avenue, a 15-centimetre folding pocket knife with a picture of a bear on it (value $20) was stolen from a car and taken also was a post office box key.

On McCallum View Drive on the same day, there were two reports of entries into vehicles, and although nothing was taken, Harrison did say it was obvious the vehicles had been entered.

On Jan. 27 an incident was reported on Pineview Crescent that was also suspected to have occurred on Jan. 24. Stolen was 43¢.

“There was a big hit on the 24th in the Valmar area,” explained Harrison.

“Obviously there’s someone walking around just taking advantage of whatever vehicles they can find. We would really like the public’s assistance on this because it seems these things kind of go in a spurt.”

Anyone seeing people out late at night looking at vehicles is asked to call Grand Forks RCMP at 250-442-8288 immediately and Harrison once again implores people to remove valuables from their vehicles and lock them.

Caught in the act On Jan. 26, a break-and-enter in progress was reported at 7:13 a.m.

“Members attended immediately; however, the suspect had fled on a bicycle and is described as (1.72 metres) tall, (75 to 77 kilograms), wearing a black hoodie and black pants and a black backpack,” Harrison said, adding that the suspect left two shopping carts full of stolen items including cooper wire, copper metal, extension cords and Christmas lights.

While the suspect did not get away with the aforementioned items, Harrison said he did get away with a licence plate from a vehicle on the scene.

“That vehicle’s no-draft window was broken in and the copper wiring was cut out of the engine compartment and found in the shopping cart.”

Thank you to the many individuals throughout the Boundary who supported the 2012 Christmas Hamper program in various ways financial, gifts for the Angel Tree, food and personal items.

Thank you to the volunteers who spent many hours picking up donations, packing the hampers, filling the toy bags and delivering the hampers from Christina Lake to Bridesville and Beaverdell.

The 2012 Boundary Christmas Hamper Program was a success thanks to our Boundary community working together.

286 hampers were prepared. In this number there were 272 children under 18 years of age.

Chainsaw theft On Jan. 21, at 9:35 a.m., there was a report that a shed was broken into on Seventh Street, with a Husqvarna chainsaw stolen. Grand Forks RCMP say there are no suspects in that incident.

Vehicle theft On Jan. 22 a car break-in was reported in an incident that happened sometime between 10:30 p.m. the previous night and 8:30 a.m.

“There was a theft (from) vehicle on Second Street,” said Harrison. “Stolen was a woman’s leather zip-up wallet, no cash, ID or credit cards in it. There are no suspects or witnesses.”

Bail breach On the same day, there was also a case of two breaches of bail conditions, which led to an arrest on Jan. 24.

“A 52-year-old male was arrested, charged and held in custody for court (Monday) on two counts of breaching the curfew conditions of his bail from a previous charge,” Harrison said.

Kootenay Car Care break-in On Jan. 23, there was a break-in reported at Kootenay Car Care.

“Entry was gained through a basement door. The suspects turned off the power and then fled when the alarm went off,” Harrison said. “Nothing was stolen, two suspects were arrested the next day and charged. They were both held in custody because of previous criminal records.”

He said that one is a 39-year-old male, the other a 31-year-old female and both were charged with break-and-enter.

“It has come to my attention that the Boundary District Arts Council is planning to bring in a theatre production that contains partial nudity. We do not allow productions containing nudity in our facility. You will not be able to rent the auditorium for this performance.” Hanlon went on to say that if the partial nudity were eliminated, the performance would be allowed.

School Superintendent Michael Strukoff said that in fact, a member of BDAC had told him the performance was promoted as being able to be performed either with the nudity or with simulated nudity, the latter being acceptable to the school district.

Garrison said that she had asked for and received from Hanlon a copy of the policies governing the use of the auditorium. “There was nothing in it,” she said. “All it covers are the mechanics, that the building has to be kept locked and clean, just the basics.”

On Monday, Garrison spoke to Strukoff about the

policy. “He told me that since there was no mention of nudity in the policy, that they could interpret it that way, and that Jeannette was the person who could interpret it,” Garrison said. “I am confused as to why one person, Jeannette Hanlon, has this authority,” she said. “Another thing that confuses me is that this is the Centennial Community Auditorium for community use not in school hours, and that the use of the auditorium was for many stakeholders.” She said that BDAC had contributed thousands of dollars to the auditorium for the stage lighting.

She added that Strukoff told her any concerns over the ban would have to be taken up with the school board after a request for consideration had been submitted in writing. Strukoff confirmed that to The Gazette. “There is no district policy that specifically addresses that issue for productions that are from the outside community,” Strukoff said. “So when there is a silence in our policy manual on any issues, the policy is that senior management can

make that decision.”

School board chair Teresa Rezansoff also indicated that this was the policy. “Jeannette would be the person to go to and then, after that, if whatever that decision is, is not agreed to by whoever is asking to have that performance, then that group could come to the board and ask for that decision to be reviewed.”

Strukoff said, “Management consulted on this. It’s a school facility. Yes, it’s after hours but, just as we don’t allow drinking in our school facility, there are exceptions made from time to time, but they are made by the board of education. So at this time we are taking a conservative point of view. It’s a public school, Grade 8 to 12, and we’re going to basically apply a similar style of standard on productions that take place in our facility.”

Garrison said that the BDAC board would follow through with a submission to the school board.

Meanwhile, the play Deck will be presented at the Gem Theatre next Thursday, Feb. 7.

Come to the garden

Have you ever gardened with a friend, neighbour or relative? If you TARA have, then SHERSTOBITOFF you know that it is one of those simple pleasures to really enjoy in life.

At the community garden in Grand Forks, like-minded individuals can put this wisdom into practice as they share their ideas and work alongside each other. The garden not only feeds the body, but also the soul -- as seeds of friendship are sown, skills are developed and ideas are shared.

According to gardener Helen Den Ouden, the community garden is “a little piece of heaven” for her to go every week in the summer.

She exclaims, “I can grow lots of vegetables and a few sunflowers! What a pleasure – every person should experience this at least once.”

“For me, as someone with no fenced yard, it is the opportunity to grow in an area free of wandering wildlife, and to be around people who also enjoy growing their own produce,” says Trish Smith, another one of the garden members.

Developing the garden itself has been a community effort right from the get-go.

For instance, the city donated the land, the ag-

ricultural society provided start-up funding and ongoing support, and Pacific Abrasives delivers donated soil from Bron & Sons.

Volunteers attend to the regular tasks of turning compost, building garden beds, planting the butterfly garden, watering and experimenting with new projects.

The community garden is an asset to our town in many other ways.

Nestled on the grassy banks of the Kettle River, it is a beautiful and lively sight to the many bikers and walkers who travel along the Kettle Valley Rail Trail.

It helps lower our carbon footprint as people eat more locally grown food.

The garden has also served as an outdoor classroom for schoolchildren to learn a good portion of their science curriculum.

Spring is just around the corner, so for plant lovers and gardeners, it is a good time to start thinking about what to grow next.

Hanneke’s Place Kettle River Community Garden is always welcoming new members.

If you are interested in having your own 4’ by 8’ garden bed, fully stocked with soil, then please contact Christine Ann at 250-442-7374, or Tara at tara.sherstobitoff@gmail.com. Members will hold a potluck for existing and new members on Feb. 23 at 5:30 p.m. at the Grand Forks Baptist Church on Market Avenue. Everyone is welcome!

While Studio B’s recent closure decreased the number of venues for live music in Grand Forks, Nancy Nikolai says there will be a live concert this weekend at someone’s home.

Steven Palmer, an artist recently featured on CBC’s Vinyl Café with Stuart McLean, will be in Grand Forks on Sunday, Feb. 3 and he will begin performing at 7 p.m. but the one catch is no one will know where, as Nikolai and sister Joanne Bailey need to know attendance in advance.

House concert, as the name entails, is a concert in a person’s house.

“In Vancouver, there are house concerts everywhere, you can go to a house concert just about every week,” Nikolai explains. “It’s a very casual, informal thing. You get to talk to (the person sitting beside you), the musician. It’s very casual, you can even (depending on the musician) ask for requests, hum along – it doesn’t have to be that concert, ‘sit,’ ‘listen,’ ‘leave’ sort of thing, it’s more interactive.”

She said it was the way music used to be, it is something people have gotten away from and she hopes it becomes prominent again so people get away from television, iPods and smart-

phones.

“This is a whole other experience that the house concert allows. It becomes more of a learning thing, you can see the instruments right in front of you; it’s close up. You can ask questions and I think it’s great for our kids to see this happening,” opines Nikolai. “I think it promotes the whole music thing instead of just playing a CD or downloading. They may get an interest and learn what it takes to play an instrument and maybe get some incentive to take up an instrument.”

As for Palmer, his music can be described as “joyous blending of original and traditional country, folk, gospel, blues and ragtime,” according to a press release.

He is said to be at home whether performing at a folk festival, a theatre or a house concert.

Again, the concert will take place on Sunday at 7 p.m. with information on the location forthcoming.

A suggested donation of $15 is being asked for with all proceeds going to Palmer. Non-alcoholic cider will be provided.

You can call Nikolai at 250-666-0308 or email her at nancy.nikolai@gmail.com for more information regarding the Steven Palmer house concert in Grand Forks.

Sail and Riverspines exhibits on until April 17 at art gallery

There are a number of exhibits on display at Grand Forks’ gallery 2.

Bettina Matzkuhn: Sail Until April 17 Vancouver artist Bettina Matzkuhn has over 30 GALLERY 2 years experience working with embroidery and fabric collage as a language of visual narrative. “Sail raises ideas of environmental crisis, communal and individual knowledge, and the aesthetic of repair,” says Matzkuhn. “Metaphorically, the intricate embroidery and carefully repaired canvas, the layering of maps and navigational symbols contrived to provide guidance; the sails which are actual means of propulsion and the multifarious implications of our need for oil transport allows us to consider the complexity of human achievement.”

This series of small, densely embroidered wind diagrams, and a small fleet of sails, also reflect her direct knowledge of sailing during her youth on the West Coast and nautical chart reading learned from her father.

Matzkuhn holds a BFA in visual arts and a MA in liberal studies form Simon Fraser University. In the 1980s, she animated and directed three award-winning films using textiles for the National Film Board of Canada and an interest in narrative continues to inform her work.

She exhibits her work in Canada and internationally, writes professionally on the arts and is a session instructor at Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver.

Tanya Pixie Johnson: Riverspines Until April 17 Tanya Pixie Johnson’s mixed media installations explore the natural environment and our physiological and spiritual relationship to it.

The vertical symmetry immediately evokes references to the human spine and nervous system, less obvious is the allusion to rivers and water.

It is when we mentally orientate the images horizontally that we understand the river reference.

Tanya Pixie Johnson was born Kenya and spent most of her youth in South Africa.

z Local Submission

She attended the Frank Joubert Art School and the Michaelis School of Art at the University of Cape Town, where she received an honours degree in fine art, majoring in painting.

Following travels in southern Africa and Europe, she made her way to Canada and now lives in Winlaw, B.C. Studio Watch: First Impressions This exhibition presents works by participants of the printmaking workshop conducted at gallery 2 by Richard Reid in April 2012.

For some, this was their first experience in intaglio and relief printmaking techniques.

Heritage Gallery: William Jefferson Carpenter (1861-1925) We are so accustomed to historical photographic images that we tend to take them for granted and few of us give thought or recognition to the men (and women) who captured the images.

As a matter of fact, such small attention was paid to many of these itinerant photographers that to this day, very little is known about them. Historian and guest curator Roger Boulet spent the past number of years researching the life and times of one such photographer, William Jefferson Carpenter, who specialized in the production of panorama images of mining towns and industrial development, including the Kootenay Boundary region.

It should be remembered that these early photographers were also technological experimenters and inventors.

“Carpenter began to experiment with the panoramic format while in Rossland. Early photographs in the collection of the Rossland Museum show that Carpenter was beginning to explore the panorama by juxtaposing and mounting single prints. No doubt the invention of the Cirkut Camera (patented in 1904 and widely available by 1905) assisted Carpenter in his new photographic interest. One panorama of Spokane, copyrighted in 1903, would suggest that he might have been working with the equipment before it was patented,” Boulet said.

We would like to thank Joyce Austen of the Rossland Historical Museum and Archives and Sarah Benson of the Trail Archives for the loan of the original William Jefferson Carpenter panoramic photographs in this exhibition.

Grand Forks Border Bruins’ goalie Kai McDonald made 33 saves and the team defeated the Revelstoke Grizzlies 7-4 at Grand Forks Arena last Friday.

Bruins beat Grizzlies KARL YU

Gazette Editor

After being edged out by the Castlegar Rebels on the road 2-1 on Jan. 22, the Grand Forks Border Bruins responded with a 7-4 win over the Revelstoke Grizzlies.

While the team saw an early 2-0 deficit, new Border Bruins’ goalie Kai McDonald stood firm and earned the win in his first start – he came from Coquitlam, B.C. and replaces Robert Dunsmuir, who returned to Ontario.

“I went in, got down 2-0 but I kind of had a feeling that we were coming back,” McDonald said after the win. “The tide was going to change.

I’m just on top of the world right now.”

The team seemingly had a comfortable 5-2 lead in the third but a couple of Revelstoke goals had the 240-person crowd at Grand Forks Arena feeling antsy. Fortunately, the home team scored a pair to seal the victory.

“I’ve always been taught just to leave that stuff behind you, always regain your focus and I mean, we have a good group of guys here,” McDonald said when asked about the lapse. “They’re really working hard and they figured it out.”

The Border Bruins took all three of the Stars of the Game with Dakota Kittle taking first on the strength of four points (a goal and three assists),

Brandon Savaia taking second (three assists) and Coleton Dawson taking third star with a pair of goals and an assist.

“The first one was a greasy, garbage goal, but you need those. I saw the puck and shoved it five-hole,” explained Dawson. “The second one, Kittle gave me a nice one at the top of the (faceoff) circle and I didn’t even look, I just got a shot nice and low.”

Border Bruins’ head coach and GM Nick Deschenes didn’t like that the team let the Grizzlies back in the game but was happy with how his team scored two goals after that.

“We were able to hold it together in the third,” Deschenes said. “My ideal third period is no goals against when you have the lead. We gave them a few but we responded well and I think this is a really young group and they’re really playing hard for each other. It’s nice to see and they’ve got a bit of an identity now.”

Community Futures Boundary sponsored Friday’s home game and all in attendance got in for free.

The team lost a close one to the Nelson Leafs the following night in Nelson by a final of 4-2.

Jacob Jeske and Jackson Purvis scored for the Border Bruins vs. the Leafs, while Dominic Stadnyk made 37 saves on 40 shots. The Leafs scored an empty-netter with 43 seconds left.

Notice of Passing ~ In Memoriam

Clarence John

Wiebe

December 7, 1940 January 10, 2013 It is with sadness that the family of Clare Wiebe of Abbotsford, formerly of Grand Forks, announce his peaceful passing in Abbotsford Hospital with his family by his side. Clare taught at the Grand Forks Secondary school from 1973 – 1995. He is survived by Jan, his wife of 45 years. Also surviving are his daughters Kristine (Steffen) Sawchuk, and Jennifer (Trevor) Friesen; sister Elsie and family; and brother Lenard and family. He was predeceased by his parents and son Andrew (2001).

A service has been held. Donations in his memory may be made to the Pines Bible Camp or the B.C. Cancer Foundation.

Paul Alex Verigin 1940 – 2013

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend, Paul Alex Verigin. Paul passed away Saturday, January 5, 2013, with his family by his side, in Kelowna,

at the age of 72.

He was born on March 19, 1940 at Grand Forks to parents Alex and Polly Verigin.

He was the oldest of three children. He had a brother, Alex, and sister, Irene.

He met his love, Kathy at the age of 19. They were married for 52 years. Paul and Kathy were blessed with their daughter Patty, followed by their son Larry and daughter Marianne.

Paul was predeceased by his parents Alex and Polly Verigin, his sister Irene and his nephew Jeff Verigin, and his mother- and father-in-law, William and Nora Kabatoff.

He is survived by his wife Kathy, daughter Patty, son-in-law Lance Davidson and grandsons Jade and Jesse, son Larry and daughter-in-law Diana, daughter Marianne, brother Alex Verigin, nephew Iain Verigin and his family, brother-in-law Joe Kabatoff and his children, aunt Vera Soukeroff and many cousins, nephews and nieces.

Paul leaves us with many wonderful memories that we will hold dear in our hearts. He inspired and supported us. We will miss his smile and words of wisdom.

Paul believed that when a person passed, the sadness was the loss people felt of missing that person. Sorrow should not be for the deceased, because they are off having another experience.

Our loving husband, father, grandfather and friend may no longer be with us, but his love and spirit will remain with us forever. May he rest in peace...but, actually, we know he’s not resting, he’s off soaring on his next adventure.

A memorial service was held at the Springfield Funeral Home in Kelowna on January 12. The family would like to thank all our family, relatives and friends who attended Paul’s memorial service, and all the people who sent flowers, sent cards, phoned, emailed and sent their condolences. Your love and support has given us strength.

God Bless you all.

My pastor is retiring this spring, April 1 to be exact. “No,” he said, it isn’t an April Fools prank.” The title of this column is View From The Pulpit. After four years as my pastor, and very dear friend, I have a pretty good view of him. The title of this column has made DOUG MAXFIELD me think, what does a pastor really see as he stands before a congregation?

As he mounts the stage where the pulpit stands the expectant hum of conversation subsides. Glancing over the group assembled he notices some that may be missing and notes their absence. It may be that some have gone on holiday or that their commitment is flagging or this one hasn’t won the battle with booze or drugs. They stumble now and then and need that bit of encouragement and reinforcement to succeed on this new and strange path. Not that they doubt the salvation that Jesus has offered by His life death and resurrection! Just old habits die hard.

There is the newly married couple. What a joy to see that new love. So attentive of each other. Surely this must remind him of the first time anyone understands and accepts the grace this free gift of forgiveness given by Christ. Their love is strong. May God bless them with a continuing mutual adoration.

Scanning the audience, there is the old fellow who lost his wife of forty years. This is his first time back at church in six months. It must be hard to face this church family who have been so kind since her death. I must visit him again.

The younger crowd in the back pretend not to be engaged. Aloof in their cool, dressed to REMATION impress. What can I say? The world keeps turnRNS ing, nothing new under the sun. It is good that LACK RANITE each generation that comes up rethinks the formula and has their way of relating to God and EADSTONES His kingdom. Still need guidance though. Try to make them think.

Your last dedication I really love the little ones present. No wonder to your loved one... that Jesus said that “Except you become as one these you cannot enter the kingdom of God.” Classic Design of Somewhere along this journey we tend to lose Studio that innocence, sense of wonder, trust, forgiveness, and acceptance they have. Much like Jesus 250-442-2445 himself I suppose.

DELIVERY in 1-7 DAYS Although I sometimes wonder if I have made a difference in the view of God I have offered the many congregations in my career I am convinced that He called me to be a special envoy of His love.

Some failures, to be sure, many friends, yes, much Serving the community since 1936 satisfaction, certainly. No doubts, no regrets. This is my God, in Him will I trust.

by Doug Pond, pastor of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Grand Forks

Stephanie Mandryk and Zak Wheaton started their new business, {bracket} Web Design, last June and have been happy with the business they have seen so far.

“We have been doing pretty good,” said Mandryk, adding that they have finished two websites and have more jobs coming up.

The duo feels their business fills a niche market because Wheaton, the designer, builds websites from the ground up using code. This is different from websites that are built using programs that fill in standard templates.

Wheaton has taken courses to learn this type of coding but he is also largely self-taught. His skills give their clients personalized websites, said Mandryk.

“We can give the customer whatever they want,” she said. If the customer wants a certain aspect of the site to catch the eye, Wheaton can design it that way.

In addition to this personalized design style, the company makes websites that fit nicely onto a cell phone screen. Many of the local websites don’t have this feature but {bracket} Web Design includes it in their pricing – which starts at $400.

“It takes more time to do mobile (sites),” said Mandryk. Each part of the website has to be scaled down to fit onto mobile phones. “It’s more complicated but it’s more functional.”

Despite the extra work, this means that potential customers can access websites when they are on the go. According to Mandryk, Grand Forks companies don’t have many mobile sites.

For those wanting to build a website from

the ground up, {bracket} Web Design also offers hosting services for an extra cost. They also do branding and Internet marketing plus Mandryk offers photography services.

Potential customers won’t find Wheaton and Mandryk in a local store. They run their business from their homes to save on overhead costs.

Mandryk feels their business choices allow them to be priced competitively in the local market.

When they were determining their prices, they were able to cut costs and offer their services for less than half the fees quoted by similar businesses in surrounding communities.

Information on {bracket} Web Design is available at their site, www.bracketwebdesign.ca.
