Salmon Arm, BC

And they’re off!

Below, cross country skiers take off after the starting gun fires during the 29th annual Reino Keski Salmi Loppet at Larch Hills last Saturday.

Inset: The enthusiastic Hannah Breugem had a smile on her face for the whole two kilometre route, and was the first 5-year-old girl in her age category (5-7) to cross the finish line.

If you’ve ruled out other causes of hair loss, such as stress, overuse of hair-care products, and certain medications and diseases such as hypothyroidism, consider supplementing with evening primrose oil. It’s a good source of gamma-linolenic acid, an essential fatty acid that’s needed for hair growth and is hard to get from your diet.

Experts recommend taking 500 milligrams twice a day; expect to wait eight weeks to see results.

Myrrh

This herb is also known as Commiphora molmol, and was one of the gifts given to baby Jesus.

It is also one of the oldest herbs. Myrrh has been used since ancient times, and was widely used by the Egyptians. Its uses ranged from perfumery to the treatment of various health conditions. It is even used today by herbalists as it has anti-microbial, anti-asthmatic, astringent, antiinflammatory, expectorant, analgesic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, and rejuvenating properties.

Myrrh is an effective anti-microbial agent because it has been shown to work in two complementary ways: Primarily it stimulates the production of white blood corpuscles (cells that help fight infection) and secondarily it has a direct anti-microbial effect.

This herb may be used in a wide range of conditions where an anti-microbial agent is needed.

It can be useful in the treatment of infections in the mouth such as ulcers, gingivitis, pyorrhoea, as well as the catarrhal problems of pharyngitis and sinusitis. It may also help with laryngitis, sore throat and respiratory complaints. For a sore throat, dilute myrrh tincture with water by adding about 100 ml of water (or according to directions on the product) and then using it as a gargle. A little myrrh powder can be rubbed over sore gums. No wonder it is a common ingredient in some natural toothpastes used to fight the bacteria that cause tooth decay and gingivitis.

Systemically, myrrh is of value in the treatment of boils, acne and similar conditions as well as glandular fever and brucellosis. It is often used as a partial approach to the treatment of the common cold. Externally, it is a healing antiseptic for wounds and abrasions. It is also good for acne and canker sores. For canker sores, a little myrrh tincture can be dabbed on the affected area a few times a day.

This is for general information only and not a substitute for medical advice. No action/treatment or inaction/non treatment should be taken without consulting your physician. Readers should consult appropriate health professionals on any matter relating to their health and well-being.

Ask your Cosmetician AkérAt by Avéne

This targeted body care cream is great for psoriasis as well as very dry, thick and rough skin. Urea and salicylic acid help to remove thick flakey skin and minimize rough and hardened skin. It leaves skin deeply moisturized and softened. The ultra rich formula of Akérat will help restore skin's comfort and balance.

This cream is good for diabetic feet, applying a thick layer at bedtime with cotton socks overnight will help soften and exfoliate thick skin. (Akérat is great for scaly legs too). Akérat as always is hypoallergenic, perfect for sensitive skins.

by Dr. Warren Gage

Hormones and stress

There are many physical, chemical and hormonal changes that occur in your body when you are under stress.

These reactions are your body’s proper response to a stressful stimulus; however, nature did not design these reactions to be long-term.

Unfortunately, many people’s hectic lifestyles cause them to be under chronic long-term stress. This ongoing stress is one of the common underlying risk factors in the majority of chronic degenerative diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, spinal pain and headaches, to name just a few.

Proof of how stress negatively impacts our health is seen in the chemical changes that occur when the adrenal glands release excess cortisol. Cortisol is an adaptation to stress, designed to increase blood pressure, flood your blood with glucose (sugar), break down muscle, increase abdominal fat storage, and reduce inflammation. While these are proper reactions to temporary stresses, a long-term elevation of cortisol due to chronic stress will greatly impair your health.

If you have high stress and elevated cortisol levels you need to actively reduce stress in your life. However, as there are many stresses we do not have any control or influence over, there are a number of dietary strategies to reduce cortisol levels.

Every Canadian should be taking a high quality Omega 3 fish oil supplement daily. Studies have shown a

reduction of cortisol levels in as soon as three weeks of starting supplementation. Increase your vitamin C intake through eating more organic citrus fruits like kiwi, papaya and oranges, or consuming bell peppers and dark green leafy vegetables.

Another way to lower cortisol levels is to limit your “high glycemic index” food intake. This means eating fewer sugars and starches and more eggs, meats, fish and vegetables. If you are eating high glycemic foods you have to consume an equal amount of animal protein to balance this out. Also, low-calorie dieting will stress your body and increase cortisol. Saving the best strategy for last – the consumption of more dark chocolate has been show to relieve stress. Researchers in Switzerland found that the consumption of dark chocolate (in moderation) reduces cortisol levels.

A combination of persistent, conscious stress reduction combined with better dietary choices and regular exercise greatly reduces the negative impacts on our health and wellbeing. If you know you are producing too much cortisol and are wondering how to start making positive changes, we can help. Call Harbourfront Family Chiropractic today (250) 8030224.

Not all cherries have health benefits

In the recent (Jan. 4th) Seniors’ Wellness article about cherries and their medicinal properties, Kosha Vaidya neglected to mention that it is sour cherries that have these incredible benefits. The more common Bing cherries that we buy as a fresh fruit don’t

exhibit the same properties. The sour cherries were once used almost exclusively for pie filling. Ms. Vaidya did a nice job of describing the benefits.

Let’s just make sure we have all of the information.

A Cariboo fishing trip

swam past, at 27 feet.

Most anglers used the attractor with a small glow hook, with two maggots, and were doing well, but then it was over. Next morning, again at 6:30, it was off to Deka Lake and more incredible kokanee fishing, as large schools of small-

As Smokey went to his Chevy Tracker to retrieve his Thermos, with the temperature of -12ºC, on Deka Lake, the Budweiser beer can slipped beneath the ice. Upon his return, thinking his line had a kokanee, he pulled it up.

We all snickered as he yelled, “I thought I had a kokanee – damn, it’s a Bud, I gotta put it back!”

At the same time, Slim slid a kokanee from the four Mike had on the ice, to add to his catch. We all laughed again, as the kibitzing and jokes continued. Just then, two more anglers walked up, with their heaters, augers and Thermoses as the bite was on! This is an ice fishing, or for that matter a spring trip, most anglers dream about; and it can be had, just 230 kilometres or a three-hour drive away, in the Inter Lakes region of the Cariboo.

My friend Steve Williams, business partner with my son Steve of Island Tides Fishing Lodge, invited me to his place on Eagen Lake, up the road from the Bridge Lake store. There was some kokanee and trout angling like I’ve never seen in a long time!

(Our catch is pictured above) You gotta do it.

Arriving in the late evening, we fished the white expanse of the good-sized Crystal Lake for rainbows, using flasher spoon/ pink maggots. We did well. The next morning, at 6:30 a.m. we checked out Sulphurous Lake.

There were 14 rigs parked, with one group of 25 anglers, another of 18, and soon the bite was on, as schools of large bright kokanee

er bright fish moved past under the 14 inch-thick ice. Many anglers were landing fish steadily, as fast as their spoons/maggots went down the ice hole.

Early next morning we were off to Beaverdam Lake, for brook trout up to 2-3 lbs. Set in a snowcovered rolling hills landscape, it is a very shallow large lake, with camping facilities, toilets and tables. Here, you fish the reed beds, out to 8 feet, using flasher spoon, with 14 inches of leader and shrimp.

Next morning, again we went back to Deka Lake, and more great kokanee fishing, camaraderie, and fun. Being minus 12ºC, anglers use propane heaters, which everyone shares to warm hands. There, we met an elderly gent who had invented the Deka Lake attractor spoon back some years ago (pictured above). Since then, he has sold over 10,000.

Starting out, he and his buddy went out at night, using various glow paints on spoons, and the flash from a camera to get the glow; mostly yellow/luminous green. They would come off Deka Lake at 5:00 a.m. with a

limit. They called the spoon ‘Fire Tiger,’ and boy, does it work on kokanee and rainbows.

Driving to various lakes in the early morning, then until dark, we could see moose in deep snow, nipping willow browse along the way. In total, about 7 or 8 each morning. The total count for three days – 18 animals.

Wolves are an issue, but so far, moose are staying close to rural roads and hillsides.

There has been heavy clearcut logging, even in rural areas, even up mountainsides, and the country is quickly being denuded.

We fished 11 mile-long Bridge Lake for lakers, to 28 lbs, while other anglers fished nearby lakes.

Snowmobilers travel miles there, on the long/wide frozen lakes. It’s a true sportsman’s paradise year-round, with a dozen fishing lakes out from Bridge Lake/Lone Butte that anglers head out to each morning.

There is a large population of seniors residing in the region and most of them love the lifestyle.

Many love fishing. Lady anglers do join their hubbies at times.

One drawback for families is that many kids must be driven to school bus stops each day, and to shop for groceries or visit the doctor’s office means a trip to 100 Mile, or Clinton.

It’s always interesting to travel our beautiful BC to find new adventures, winter or summer.

For those that enjoy winter activities like cross country skiing or angling, the Interlakes area of the Cariboo is the place to be!

mealies off Legion camp/near island dropoffs. Skimikin quiet, no report. Phillips, some larger fish being caught.

This lake now is planted with eastern brook fry. Patience is the word for Phillips.

Nearby, Fleming is quiet too! Falkland area: Joyce is producing small trout. No report for Pillar.

Moose are browsing along the highway from the Canoe mill area to the 111 Road toward Sicamous. Use caution there. Moose have been spotted in fields along Highway 97b, by the golf course towards Birchdale Kennels area. No one wants to hit a moose on a road when travelling 80 km/h; so slow down and drive to road conditions. Be safe in all you do, even if cross country skiing or in the back woods, and enjoy our great Shuswap!

SENIOR MAY LOSE HER DRIVER’S LICENCE

Helga Dodds, who is in her mid-80s, had four more years on her driver’s licence when she received information in the mail in December saying she had to be retested in order to keep driving her car. She was puzzled. She’s never had an accident nor received a speeding ticket. It’s a new program to test seniors, based on DriveABLE in Alberta and it is to be taken every two years. www.driveable.com The first step was a three-question cognitive test by a doctor. She took the form to the doctor she’s been seeing for 12 years and who knows she has a clear health history. She passed two questions but not the third.

Helga was born in Denmark and came to Canada in 1952.

She learned how to speak and read English, but not write. She was unable to write in letters the numbers 209 and 4059. She was very upset to be told that she didn’t pass. When her blood pressure was taken, it was 190/90. The doctor faxed the form to DriveABLE. Helga has been waiting for the next step since Dec. 11. It’s very stressful. She said the test she completed was not fair due to her being ESL and unable to write English. It had nothing to do with cognitive impairment.

She has a daughter in Westbank and other kids in Alberta so they are unable to help her. She called a younger lifelong friend, and asked her to phone me so I would inform other seniors to be prepared when they get their letter in the mail requesting a medical exam to drive.

Next is a computer test, the first one free with a repeat costing $150. Helga has never touched a computer. She is even more stressed at the thought.

The final test is one in Kelowna or Kamloops where the senior drives a car with two controls, the second for the tester.

The cost is $150. It must be scheduled two months in advance and someone must drive the senior there.

Helga found that there is no support for seniors having to go through DriveABLE. There are months of anxious waiting for a letter to arrive telling them the second and third test they have to do to retain their driver’s licence.

Helga went to the Access Centre a week ago to see if the

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

staff knew anything about the next phase of testing. She was told that she can take the computer and driving tests in Salmon Arm, however, they did not know where. More anxiety and stress for her.

She says if seniors are good drivers with good records, they should not be treated like this. “It makes me sick!”

CAN YOU HELP A SENIOR WITH TESTS?

Are you interested in coaching a senior through the DriveABLE tests? Let’s make a list of people who can work with seniors, men with men and women with women, until they get their licence renewed.

I believe there should be a charge, not only for time, but also for use of the coach’s vehicle. In the event of failure to pass, the coach can help the senior sell the car and buy a scooter.

Write me at sallys1@telus.net if you would like to be a coach. If I get five responses, I will call a mid-week afternoon meeting over coffee and announce it in this column so everyone who is interested can attend.

taken over have seen their values decrease by 50 to 90 percent.

“We have a choice now,” she said. “Pass a resolution to ban any more GMOs. If you do not make such a decision, you are making the decision to support industrial farming.”

When she made a presentation to NORD in spring of 2011, she was told that NORD would form an agricultural advisory committee to study the issue and bring a proposal to the board.

Now, 18 months later, it appears this committee is ready to meet although Bee SAFE opposed its “industrial farming” structure and mandate over a year ago. Bee SAFE is now encouraging all citizens opposed to GMO crops to lobby their own director and try to pass the ban in each area one at a time.

UKRAINIANS CELEBRATED MALANKA

Last week was New Years according to the Julian calendar and the celebration was called Malanka. CBC’s Rick Mercer danced at Malanka with a Ukrainian dance group in Saskatoon, and I attended Malanka in Kelowna sponsored by the Dolyna Ukrainian dancers.

Beginning Feb. 4, 2013, we will no longer give a cashier a penny, nor receive a penny in change. Cash transactions will be rounded to the nearest five cents. The rounding will not be done on single items but on the total bill of sale.

The one-cent coin will retain its value indefinitely.

DO NOT ALLOW MORE FARMING OF GMO CROPS

Huguette Allen spoke to the North Okanagan Regional District board on January 16 on the need to preserve agriculture in the area. If any more farms are permitted to grow crops with genetically engineered organisms, GMOs, it would jeopardize organic farms because wind and insects cross-pollinate plants of the same family from one farm to another. Once an organic farm has been contaminated, it’s impossible to go back. She said 62 countries have banned or insisted on labelling GMO foods.

So far, GMO crops grown in Canada are corn, sugar beets, soy and canola. GMO crops go hand in hand with Factory Farms. Property values in areas where Factory Farming has

As with many important Ukrainian banquets of long ago, Vic and his Ukrainian Band greeted people with Ukrainian dance music as they entered Malanka in Kelowna. Vic Ukrainetz of Kelowna is the tsymbaly player on the right.

A caterer and her family from Dauphin, Manitoba brought delicious, authentic Ukrainian food. She is an operating room nurse who caters to banquets on the side. She and her family travelled from Dauphin to Kelowna and brought a trailer containing frozen food for 360 people.

When I met people at my table or in the buffet line, I asked where they were born. Not one was born in the Okanagan.

Goodeve? My mother came from near there. Yorkton? I took nurse’s training there! It’s a small world.

The next Ukrainian feast will be on Feb. 3 as part of the Vernon Winter Carnival.

Local gas prices still high

Once again, according to the GasBuddy.com website recently, it is evident that gas stations in Salmon Arm continue to overcharge motorists. Until fairly recently, oil per barrel was down to as low as $86 US (West Texas Intermediate at Cushing, Oklahoma) and there were no shortages of oil along the west coast. During the last several months, there have have been only several minor reductions in the price at the pump for regular unleaded fuel in Salmon Arm, compared to more frequent and larger reductions in the price at pumps in Enderby, Armstrong and Vernon, all of which are located further away from tank farms. At the time of this writing, the price per barrel was $95.11 US, which is much less the record of about $145 US per barrel in July 2008. However, in mid December the price for unleaded in Salmon Arm was $1.339/L, not that much less than the price per litre back in 2008. The oil companies cannot continue to justify with a response such as “competitive market prices prevail locally.” So how do prices compare in other cities in BC? On Jan. 21, for unleaded per litre, Kamloops averaged $1.019, Duncan and Courtenay were $1.099, Enderby,

Armstrong, Vernon, Kelowna, Kamloops, Merritt and Abbottsford were $1.109 to $1.119, Chilliwack and Victoria (has a 3.5 cent/L transit tax) were $1.139, Nanaimo and Tofino were $1.169, and Vancouver (with a 15 cent/L transit tax) was $1.269.

In view of the high gasoline prices in the Shuswap; while I support buying items in stores locally, I urge motorists in Salmon Arm, Sicamous and Sorrento to fuel up in more competitive cities elsewhere whenever possible to send a message to the oil companies that local prices are unrealistically high. It appears to me that oil companies are not very ethical locally as they seldom give us a break at the pump when the price per barrel drops. It appears by living east of Kamloops, we are charged much more than is necessary. Let the oil companies know about how you don’t like being overcharged, by googling their contact information for toll-free phone numbers or email addresses. Supporting high priced local gas stations only encourages prices to remain high, so please do your part to change that – for everyone’s benefit.

Ian Clay, Salmon Arm

Petitions to lower gas prices?

Why is it that we keep having higher gas prices than ANYWHERE around us?! It’s bad enough that people don’t come here for lack of shopping; but when we have to pay more for gas, isn’t that just chasing people to go out of town for pretty much everything these days? This will probably have no effect on the gas prices as it seems you can’t

even shame the gas stations into lowering prices here. And please don’t tell me the proprietors can’t regulate the prices – they should be getting on the oil companies that set the prices, telling them that we are tired of being ripped off. They could get petitions going with all their clientele, which would would go a long way towards keeping the loyal

Proud of status

This is a letter regarding your paragraph on “the Aboriginal movement” (in Jan. 18th’s column on fishing). I am a Bill C-31 native; my children have gotten their status as part of this “movement.”

Your comment about 600,000 persons ‘being added to the Indian population’ astounds me. This is our right, and we are proud to be who we are. My children and I are given this right and are going to stand by the judge’s decision.

We are proud to be native; nothing and nobody can change this. My family continues to be one of these taxpayers to ‘dole out money for Native reserves,’ and do not complain about it.

What does the topic “Shuswap Outdoors” have to do with belittling Aboriginals and their rights as per previous articles? Maybe the writer should stick to the Shuswap outdoors instead of indirectly bullying Natives/Métis and their children who read the newspaper.

Maybe topics such as global warming are more useful for the outdoorsmen. With this said, a brisk walk in the cold air is beneficial, but be careful not to slip on the ice.

The reality of autism

A8 Friday, January 25, 2013 Lakeshore News

“It was 7 minutes after midnight.

The dog was lying on the grass in the middle of the lawn in front of Mrs. Shears’s house. Its eyes were closed.

It looked as if it was running on its side, the way dogs run when they think they are chasing a cat in a dream. But the dog was not running or sleeping. The dog was dead.”

So begins ‘The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night,’ the story of a 15-year-old boy with autism. The book was made into a movie and has already played in Salmon Arm, but the Salmar agreed to bring it back by special request.

The special encore presentation will be a fundraiser for the Shuswap Children’s Association Autism Spectrum Support Group. The funds they raise will help bring in guest speakers for the group or offer workshops, explains Autism Spectrum Disorder Coordinator Tanja Carlson.

Besides being the coordinator, Tanja is also the mother of a child with autism spectrum disorder. Her 13-year-old son, Jayden, was diagnosed with Pervasive Development Disorder (PDD) when he was seven.

“Autism Spectrum Disorder is a complex neurological development disorder,” says Tanja. “It affects

social, communication and behaviour.”

Autism, she explains, can have such a variety of symptoms that it isn’t always easy to diagnose.

“Some can’t communicate, some are verbal and some hyper-verbal.

Their interests can be repetitive and obsessive and they only want to talk about things that interest them.”

One of their biggest communication challenges is that they don’t get facial clues.

“It’s a social barrier,” says Tanja, “and they don’t perspective-take.”

That is, they are incapable of seeing someone else’s point of view, or of understanding how something might affect someone else.

“Multi-tasking is difficult for them.

They need one clear instruction.

There is no grey area, just black and white. They don’t understand metaphors, and there is often anxiety.”

Many of them can’t take noise or overstimulation.

“Some parents can’t take their children to restaurants because of the noise. Some have to wait until night to put the dishwasher on.”

Some lack creativity altogether, while others can be creative geniuses.

Until Jayden went to school, Tanja

Besides having a CEA (Certified Educational Assistant) with him at school, Jayden also has a life skills coach and a physical activity coach.

“It does help. I’ve noticed, and at the school they’ve noticed that he is able to cope better.”

Letters to the Editor

We need to listen to each other

As the lead proponent of the Shuswap Inclusion Project organizing against racism and hate, we have grave concerns over what is happening between the Canadian government and our First Nations people.

We are concerned that these events will serve to unravel the goodwill between the Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal communities that we have both worked so hard to build over the last three years. We are concerned that, whenever there is conflict, individuals feel compelled to choose sides. We are concerned that when faced with complex issues, like those concerning our First Nations people, the tendency is to simplify the issue in a way that distorts the reality and makes reaching agreement more difficult to achieve.

We would encourage our Shuswap neighbours to avoid all three by: not stereotyping Aboriginals; respecting their right to work towards improving the conditions of their people; and upholding their right to differ with each other as well as with non-Aboriginals.

This is an opportunity to become informed about the issues involved, and to come to your own conclusions without choosing sides.

Respecting the opinion of others does not require you to agree; but rather, that you acknowledge human fallibility and that there is as much a chance the other is right as there is that you are right.

Aboriginals and nonAboriginals have shared the Shuswap for generations with varying degrees of enmity. It is important you don’t remain idle while your country is being pulled apart. If you have Aboriginal friends, now is the time to reach out to them. (If you don’t have any, you might ask your-

self why not.) Ask your Aboriginal friends to help you understand their perspective. While listening isn’t the same as agreeing; in some ways, it demonstrates more respect. Furthermore, listening is the best means of prompting others to listen in turn. If we both block out the noise and sincerely listen to each other, solutions will soon start to emerge.

Universal remote

A couple weeks ago we refreshed your memory with how the Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA) works. We also told you that the contribution limit finally increased from $5,000 to $5,500 in 2013.

However, it’s nearly February and that’s when we start to wonder if they shouldn’t contribute to an RSP. I mean, with an RSP contribution, I get a nice tax refund that I can spend on a new iPad mini or the latest universal remote. It’s a no-brainer; clearly the RSP is the way to go. Or is it?

Well, conventional wisdom says to do both. Of course, you should maximize both your RSP and TFSA, but how many of us are big income earners, single, no children and living rent-free in our parents’ basement? I suspect not a lot.

If you are like most, you will need to decide between one and the other. So what should you do?

Well, let’s see what the numbers say... If you earn $5,000 and are in a 30% tax bracket, then you are left with $3,500 after-tax dollars to invest ($5,000 – ($5,000 x 30%)). With the $3,500 you would get a $1,050 refund if invested in an RSP ($3,500 x 30%), leaving you with a total amount of $4,550 ($3,500 + $1,050) net out-of-pocket funds at the time you receive your refund. However, when you withdraw the funds from the RSP in the future and assuming the same tax rate you’ll be giving that $1,050 back to the government ($3,500 RSP x 30% tax on withdrawal). So in the end you will be left with the same $3,500 you started with, much like the TFSA. However, the income you earn in the TFSA remains tax free even when you withdraw it whereas the income earned inside an RSP is taxed when withdrawn. So, if the tax rates are the same, then a TFSA would have a slight advantage, never mind the fact the extra RSP income when you are retired could affect the amount of medical you could claim or guaranteed income supplement you would receive.

So the general rule of thumb is if you suspect your tax rate is to remain the same when you withdraw the funds as when you contribute the funds, then you should use a TFSA. However, it’s quite common that a person’s income is lower when you withdraw your RSP than when you contribute. This will result in a savings due to the difference in tax rate. For instance, if in the above example, the $3,500 RSP was withdrawn when the tax rate was only 20% then the tax would only be $700 and you would gain 10% or $350 from the cost of tax $700 and the original refund $1,050.

As for the universal remote? Well, if you use that RSP refund for a universal remote instead of putting it away then you have lost any advantage you had

by Daron Mayes with the RSP except for the fact a universal remote is really cool until some new technology comes along next month. On the other hand, the tax on withdrawal is a real deterrent to a lot of people. By investing in a TFSA, you might feel more inclined to withdraw your funds when you see the new technology that replaces your old universal remote.

So where does that leave us? If you suspect your tax rate to be the same in the future as it is now, then consider a TFSA. More importantly, be disciplined with your finances and forget about the universal remote. Not only will you have more money, but you’ll be entertained for hours juggling three or four remotes at a time.

Carol Creasy • 250-835-8587 Tax News from Susan Grimes at H&R Block During the year we get a number of calls from people asking the CRA rules on when you are considered common-law for tax purposes.

These rules can be quite complex and the tax implications can be harsh if they are not adhered to. It is too lengthy a subject to discuss in one article so I will carry on with this theme next week. Firstly, if there are no children involved, you are considered to be common-law if you have lived with with your partner for twelve months in a “conjugal relationship”. So if you move in together Jan. 24th 2012, you are considered to be common-law Jan. 24th 2013.

Because the income tax year ends Dec. 31st you would file “single” for Dec. 31st 2012 on your 2012 return and then complete a change of marital status form on Jan. 24th 2013. “Tune in” next time for more on this subject concerning common law with children involved. Call in and see us Monday – Friday 9-5 pm.

Shaw Centre, a place of many uses

A10 Friday, January 25, 2013 Lakeshore News

More than a decade has passed since Salmon Arm’s twin sheet arena was built up the hill east of downtown. The arena’s opening was welcomed by many sports groups, including junior hockey fans. The Salmon Arm SilverBacks Junior A hockey team arrived in time for the 2001-2002 season and marks its 12th season this year. I’m not a dedicated hockey fan, however, I do get to a

game once in a while, and support having a local team, believing it’s good for a community both socially and economically.

I also appreciate having the arena itself.

Originally called the Sunwave Centre, it is now named the Shaw Centre. Managed for the City of Salmon Arm by the Shuswap Recreation Society, its uses and services are varied.

Besides meeting the needs of hockey on its two NHL regulation size rinks, the ice is used for ringette, figure skating and speed skating. With the ice removed, the largest spectator arena, which has seating for 1500 people (and 700 more on the floor), has plenty of room for concerts, conventions, trade shows and other large

sporting events. A few years ago I remember being impressed with how the arena transformed into a curling venue for a national championship that I dropped in to watch. A changeover of purpose can happen rapidly, too.

Hockey one evening, and a trade show opening the next evening!

Families can book skating birthday parties at the arena, and two meeting rooms are available for rent. A multi-purpose room seats 20 and the conference room can accommodate 90 people.

Intermission Restaurant upstairs is also open certain times. From there you can look through windows at the two rinks and watch the action.

The Shaw Centre is also popular for walkers, especially during the winter months when outdoor walking is less attractive and more dangerous. The upper concourse around the spectator arena is approximately 200 metres long, so walking it five times gives a total distance of one kilometre. Indoor walking is free and is

usually open M o n d a y through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and also other times when the building is open. However, there is no walking during SilverBacks’ games or when other special events are occurring.

We are fortunate to have this first-class facility in Salmon Arm. Use it and support its events as often as you can. I think I’ll check out the circuit walking there this winter!

DONALD WELLS

We announce with regret and relief the passing of Donald Lewis Wells at Parkview Place in Enderby on January 18, 2013. Don was born on September 27, 1928 in the Enderby Hospital and lived most of his life in the area. He was the grandson of two of Grindrod’s early pioneer families; Emma and William Monk, and Jemima and George Wells. As an only child he was surrounded with aunts, uncles, and cousins and found many ways to amuse himself. His father passed away when Don was just 15 years old.

From then on, he farmed with his mother, Helen, along with the help of valued neighbours. Don was always community minded. Throughout his life he sat on the boards of many organizations including the Grindrod Farmers Hall, Grindrod Park, Enderby Hospital, Parkview Place, Enderby Museum, and was one of the early members of the Grindrod Credit Union, later serving as President. In his younger years, Don was kept busy most weekends playing saxophone with the Enderby City Band and later on the Swingsters Dance Band. He starred in many productions put on by the Grindrod Players Club. He, along with Gordon Volker, was a founding member of the Grindrod Airforce Àying club which is still a weekly Sunday event for it’s members. Don leaves behind his devoted wife Irene of 58 years, as well as his four sons Randy(Sherry), Rick (Jean), Ron (Cindy), and Rod. He also leaves his seven grandchildren Ryan, Brandi, Devan, Keegan, Kaylee, Holly, and Sarah as well as four great granddaughters Rylyn, Elianna, Kaia, and Anika.

He will be greatly missed and long remembered by family and friends. The family would like to extend their sincere thanks to the doctors and staff of Parkview Place for their kindness and care during his stay. A family service will be held at Grindrod Gospel Church on Saturday January 26, 2013 at 11am followed by a Memorial tea from 1pm to 3pm at the Enderby Drill Hall.

Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family at www.MyAlternatives.ca.

Campbell, Daniel John

November 6, 1959 – January 12, 2013 It is with great sorrow that the family of Dan Campbell announces the sudden passing of our son, brother and uncle at the age of 53 years. Dan was born in Salmon Arm and spent his early years living a life that many boys could only dream of. He always had a horse to ride, a dog by his side, and a bike to take him on many an adventure. As a boy, Dan was involved in several sports including hockey, baseball, boxing and skiing, all with the coaching and encouragement of his father. He loved to listen to music of all kinds and always enjoyed a challenging game of chess with his friends, (especially when he was on the winning end). At the young age of 15 he left school and moved to Calgary and soon after his arrival he took a job learning to work with sheet metal. He decided to go back to school in order to acquire his journeyman ticket as a sheet metal cladder and he later graduated from BCIT receiving a top achievement award for his class in 1982. He worked throughout BC and Alberta for several years before he endured a series of events that forever changed his life and ended his career. Throughout his life though, his good nature and sense of humor remained intact and there was never a time spent with him that he didn’t make you laugh. He was a friend through and through to so many and he will be forever loved and missed by his family and friends. Dan is survived by his parents, Bruce & Elizabeth Campbell, his sister, Jeanne Wensrich and her husband Brent, his sister Marianne Campbell, and his brother-in-law John Anhorn, his nephew Daniel Anhorn, three nieces, Rebecca Campbell, Jacquelin Anhorn, Tiffany Rieker, and the newest addition to his family, his great niece, Roselyn Karpiak whose arrival gave him the title of “Great” Uncle (one which he felt was most appropriate) There are so many others whom he considered as family and we trust that they all know who they are.

There will be no service at this time but a celebration of Dan’s life will be planned for the coming summer and announced at a later date. Thank you to all of the emergency personnel for your attendance & compassion at such a dif¿cult time. Dan’s family would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Adriaan Heunis and his staff for their care and kindness towards Dan over the years, As well we wish to convey our sincere appreciation to all of Dan’s wonderful friends who were there for him always. Your unwavering friendship meant the world to him.

If you wish to do something in memory of Dan, a donation to the SPCA or the Canadian Cancer Society would be very kind.

Lydia Harder It is with sadness that the family of Lydia Harder announce her passing on January 16, 2013 at the age of 94, with her son George (Lucille) and daughter Dorothy (Ewen) at her side. Mom was born in Leader, Saskatchewan on July 29, 1918 to Fred and Wilhemina Schock.

She married Abram Harder on May 10, 1938. Five children made up this family beginning with Hilbert Edward, Raymond Clarence, George Keith, a daughter Dorothy May and another son Richard Paul. She was predeceased by her parents, 8 brothers and 1 sister being the only surviving sibling at the Ɵme of her death. She was also predeceased by her youngest son (Richard) Paul in November 1978 and her husband Abram in June of 1998.

May 10th, before Dad’s death in June, they were married for 60 years.

Mom was born and raised into a farming lifestyle and spent many of her early adult years married and raising a family in the same way. When the younger children were preschool ages the family moved to BC residing around the Okanagan Valley, the West Kootenays for a few years and then seƩling in Salmon Arm in the mid 1970’s. Mom will be remembered for her love of her family, gardening, and being a homemaker which included canning fruit and vegetables, baking bread, (in the early years in a wood stove) sewing and caring for her children as well as enjoying grandchildren and great grandchildren and 1 great great grandchild. It was always an interesƟng topic of conversaƟon to discuss the changes that Mom had seen and edžperienced in her lifeƟme. We also marvelled at how the life lessons learned in her farming upbringing and early adulthood as well as living through and experiencing the depression years were never forgoƩen by her right to the end of her life. She is loved and will be fondly remembered by Hilbert (Trevor), Raymond (Emily), George (Lucille) Dorothy (Ewen) , numerous grandchildren, great grandchildren and one great great grandchild as well as nephews and nieces and many good friends.

Our family would like to extend our hearƞelt graƟtude to Drs Keith and Laura Hepburn, the nursing staī at Shuswap Lake General Hospital as well as the staī at BasƟon Place for their care of our Mother in the last weeks of her life. Also, her fellow tenants at her home in Parkview Place who daily made sure that she was OK for another day. Thank You. A celebraƟon of life service will be held from the family plot in Mt. Ida Cemetery, Salmon Arm, on Saturday aŌernoon at 1 p.m. with Jack Bowers the funeral celebrant with the eulogy shared by her daughter, Dorothy McIntosh. Family and friends will be gathering at Bowers Funeral Home at 12͗3ϱ p.m. for the Funeral Procession at 12͗4ϱ p.m. A recepƟon will follow at the Senior Centre on 5th ave. S.E. allowing the family and friends Ɵme to conƟnue sharing memories.

Flowers welcome or a donaƟon to the Shuswap Hospital FoundaƟon, Box 265, Salmon Arm, BC VIE 4N3 On line condolences may be sent to Lydia’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Funeral arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home, Salmon Arm, BC.

WHITEHEAD Joan Elizabeth Joan Elizabeth Whitehead (McLaughlin) passed away at CoƩage 5 Hillside Village in Salmon Arm on the evening of Sunday, January 13th, 2013 at the age of 96. She was born in Vernon BC on July 23rd, 1916.

As a child she lived in Vancouver, Alberta, Grindrod and Notch Hill. In 1940 she met and married Hans Whitehead and together they moved to Campbell River where Hans logged and they saved money to purchase land in Eagle Bay, BC. Their two girls, Vera Whitehead (Jensen) was born in Comox and a second daughter Anna Whitehead (Mackay) was born in Vernon. In 1946 they moved to their land in Eagle Bay and built a small house. Joan was a stay at home mother running the house and raising her two girls. She was always very acƟve in the community, spending hours doing craŌs, sewing, kniƫng, needle and peƟt point, rug hooking and any other craŌ that struck her fancy. She loved to aƩend the dances at the Eagle Bay Hall, and helped do lots of fund raising so there was a community hall.

She also loved her scrabble and every Wednesday aŌernoon friends gathered to play scrabble and have aŌernoon tea. For many years she ran the Okanagan Regional Library out of her home. AŌer her husband passed away in February 1983 she conƟnued to live on the property.

Everyone in Eagle Bay, might not have known her name but everyone knew the liƩle lady that walked miles and miles on the road every day, someƟmes hiking to the store twice a day, very seldom did she accept a ride. Mom was always very supporƟve and there for her family, always a good sport. She retained her sense of humor unƟl her passing . She had Įve grandchildren, Sandra (Blair) Downie, Wanda (Darrell) Johnson, Brian Mackay, Carolyn (Gary) Edwards, and Garry (Julie) Jensen. She was very close with and received great joy from her grandchildren and them from her. She would drop anything she was doing to play games with them. She had eight great grandchildren, David, James, Richard, Christopher, Nicole, Nathaniel, Larisa, Zara, Mallory and Cailyn and two great, great grandchildren, Danika and Keegan. She was predeceased by her husband and four great grandsons, Michael, Alexander, Kenneth and Raymond.

On October 11th, 2005 she seƩled into CoƩage 5 at Hillside Village and we feel that she had the best of care. We as a family would like to thank the staī of CoƩage 5 for the care and special aƩenƟon that she was given. There will be a gathering in August 2013 at the Eagle Bay Church for a memorial.

Memorial donaƟons may be sent to the CysƟc Fibrosis Canada, Calgary Θ Southern AB.

SILVERBACKS

Penguins victorious in Merritt

HOCKEY

By Gregg Patterson The Salmon Arm Novice Silver Penguins (right) sponsored by Dr. Chris Main took their show on the road to Merritt this past weekend for a tournament. The Penguins started off strong against West Vancouver winning handily 15-3. Their second game against a stronger opponent, the Summerland Jets, turned out to be a great game for the boys, going down 1-0 early; and then storming back with 3 goals in the second period and finishing with a 6-3 win.

The host city was the opponent for the Penguins’ last game in the round robin. In their third game of the day, the legs they had left did them proud as they shot down the hosts 11-1.

But the strongest competition was yet to come in the final. West Kelowna, just like our Penguins, had won all three of their round robin games in similar fashion, so the match-up for the gold medal was great for both teams. The play went back and forth for most of the first period with Salmon Arm having an edge in both shots and territorial play.

West Kelowna took a penalty with seconds remaining in the first period, giving the Penguins the PP to start the second and they did not waste any time capitalizing. Ten seconds in, Aiden Lindblad scored his 10th goal of the tournament to give the Penguins the lead. He scored again eight minutes later, but the two-goal lead was short-lived as West Kelowna got one past Salmon Arm goalie Connor “Target” Levins. Minutes later, Drayk Ekland made a fantastic play on the defenseman, turning him inside out and burying his shot low blocker side to put SA up 3-1 with 16 minutes to go. West Kelowna scored on a breakaway with four minutes left to make the last few minutes of the game a barn burner. West Kelowna poured it on in the final few

Shuswap Fury continue unbeaten streak

By Corey Saitz The Shuswap Fury Petite ringette team played Vernon Voltage and defeated them by a score of 9-6.

They remain unbeaten since October of last year. The Fury had some great scoring chances but were down by a score of 3-2 halfway through the first period.

The Fury then showed strong positional play and made some great passes to take the lead at the end of the first period by a score of 4-3.

Teagan Findley, Emily Petryshen, Jaiden, Clifford, Madeline Lucier, and Heidi-Leigh Boileau played strong games on defence as they kept the Vernon Voltage to very few scoring opportunities. Goaltender Tori Keehn came up big with some key saves in net.

Stephanie Martin led the Fury with 4 goals. Brooklyn Agricola and Tamara Brown scored 2 apiece, with Jordyn Turner scoring the remaining goal. Assists went to Paige Saitz, Emma Gollan, Jordan Turner, Raya Zwicker, Bethany Riley, and Emily Petryshen.

The next home game is Sunday, February 2nd, 3:45 p.m. at Hucul Pond.

Ring Robbers defeat Westside on the road

By Peter Kociuba The Shuswap Ring Robbers Novice Ringette team faced Westside on the road on Saturday, picking up an 11-7 win.

Natasha Kociuba opened the scoring for Shuswap, ripping the ring through the 5-hole of the Westside netminder 14 seconds into the game. The teams then traded a couple of goals each, with Cadence Petitclerc-Crosby and Delaney Perry each scoring for the Ring Robbers. The Robbers began to pull away from Westside beginning with Brianna Howard’s goal at just under 6 minutes into the game. Kociuba and Petitclerc-Crosby’s second, Perry’s hat-trick and Teegan Maddock’s first of two propelled the Ring Robbers to a 9-3 lead heading into the first intermission.

Westside came out guns-blazin’ in the second period scoring three unanswered goals, but Howard and Maddock’s second each of the game put the comeback out of reach for the home team.

The Ring Robbers have a brief hiatus before facing Kelowna at the pond on February 2nd.

If you’ve ruled out other causes of hair loss, such as stress, overuse of hair-care products, and certain medications and diseases such as hypothyroidism, consider supplementing with evening primrose oil. It’s a good source of gamma-linolenic acid, an essential fatty acid that’s needed for hair growth and is hard to get from your diet.

Experts recommend taking 500 milligrams twice a day; expect to wait eight weeks to see results.
