Area in Nicola Valley now protected

October 17, 2014, Kamloops, BC – The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) and its partners are pleased to announce the acquisition of 1,300 acres (525 hectares) of native grassland in BC’s Nicola Valley. The $3.4 million conservation project ensures this habitat will remain intact and undeveloped for migratory birds, rare grassland plants and larger mammals such as moose and mule deer.

The conservation lands represent a portion of Napier Lake Ranch, one of BC’s oldest ranches. Owned by the Jackson family since the 1970s, this ranch is a model of conservation-minded ranching practices that leave the grasslands in robust and vital condition while supporting a viable cattle-grazing operation.

The new conservation area is strategically located along a flyway for many species of birds. It connects to other

conservation properties both to the north and south across the Douglas Plateau — a large area designated as an Important Bird Area for its diversity.

The Nature Conservancy of Canada wishes to acknowledge many groups who contributed to this project. They include the Government of Canada through the Natural Areas Conservation Program, the Jackson Family, Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation, The Sitka Foundation, the Estate of Thomas T. Forbes and many other individuals.

“Grasslands hold more endangered species than any other climatic zone,” says Agnes Jackson, rancher and owner of Napier Lake Ranch. “Keeping large tracts of land intact is really the only way to protect them. Cows, grouse and burrowing owls can all live together. We should encourage diversity, not monoculture.”

The lands are used extensively by

hawks and falcons, especially American kestrel and northern harrier.

Sharp-tailed grouse leks are found here. Leks, or dancing grounds, are special gathering sites for male grouse where they perform their spring mating dances for the females.

Long-billed curlews — rare shorebirds — migrate from their southern wintering grounds to breed in the grasslands of BC, including on the conservation area.

The rich waters and marshland vegetation that border a portion of the property make it one of the most attractive locations for waterfowl in the chain of lakes along Highway 5A. This project builds connectivity with the Nature Conservancy of Canada’s other conservation lands in the Heritage Grasslands Natural Area, including the Frolek Ranch covenants and the Warner Philip Conservation Area.

Forum date change

The date and time for the All Candidates Forum has been changed from Monday, October 27 to Sunday, November 2, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort.

Please submit questions for candidates at the Salmon Arm Downtown website – go to http:// salmonarmdowntown.com/ and click on the bright pink drop-down tab at the top of the page.

HEALTH & BEAUTY Toastmasters host contest

Stepping out of your comfort zone is one way to tackle your fear of public speaking. For many Toastmaster members, just visiting a meeting represents a major first step. Toastmasters offers a safe environment for a person should they struggle in their first attempts in speaking in front of an audience.

In this supportive atmosphere, people can gain confidence quickly.

For those members who wish, a next step to test their comfort is to participate in a contest, first at the club level, then at the area level against other club’s members. Last week, local members Jenna Scheidegger, speaking on on table topics (impromptu speaking); and

Bruce Singbeil, speaking on humorous speech, won the area contest in Armstrong and will now go on to the division level. The Salmon Arm club is in division C’s which covers roughly the northern half of the Southern Interior. This Saturday, October 25 at 12:50 p.m. they are hosting the Division Humorous Speech and Table Topics contests at the Gathering Place. The public is invited to come and observe some of the more proficient speakers.

Weekly meetings are Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. at the DAC and visitors are always welcome. For more information please visit www.salmonarmtm.com or call Walter at 250-833-5802.

If you already love Caldrea then you must try these scents:

This herb is gaining popularity because of its anti-inflammatory properties. Various researches have shown that it has anti-inflammatory properties and is useful for arthritic conditions. One can find this herb in capsule form or in combination with other herbs like turmeric and it is used for the relief of pain, osteoarthritis, rheumatic arthritis and joint pain.

Frankincense, which is derived from Boswellia, was one of the gifts given to baby Jesus by the three wise men. Interest in this herb has been increasing big-time, and some companies are researching some of its extracts and trying to patent it.

This herb is also helpful for conditions like asthma and colitis. In

Africa, people use it for fever, and the incense has been used for treating depression. Some researchers are studying the extract from this herb for the prevention of cancer.

You can learn more at http://www. naturalnews.com/028704_frankincense_cancer.html This herb should certainly be followed and kept track of.

Concussions

More and more research is emerging on the prevention, effects, and treatment of concussion.

It’s well-understood that these brain injuries have widespread effects on athletic performance, health and general well-being. There are numerous guidelines for the care of concussion patients that include physical and cognitive rest and strategies for returning to normal activities, but there is less mention of the role chiropractic adjustments can play in speeding up recovery.

The way chiropractic adjustments accelerate recovery from a concussion is through the release of nerve interference in the upper neck.

When there is an impact to the head significant enough to cause a concussion, the upper neck also experiences the same forces. This upper neck trauma causes the spine to subluxate resulting in increased nerve interference. Unfortunately, when common symptoms of a concussion arise, all too often it is only attributed to brain trauma and the victim is not referred for a proper upper neck evaluation by a chiropractor.

Regardless of whether a person has suffered a concussion or not, chiropractors always assess the upper neck as it is the most important region of the spinal column. The brain stem connects the brain to the spinal cord just inside the top of the spine. Emerging from the brain stem are an intricate network of nerves that control the automatic functions of the body such as balance, breathing, digestion, heart rate, blood pressure, etc.

When one connects the anatomy to function, it is not difficult to understand why the most common symptoms suffered post-concussion are neck pain and headaches, balance problems, lack of concentration, nausea, and visual disturbances. These are all symptoms that originate from nerve stress in the upper cervical region. Add trauma to the brain tissues and it is not surprising why concussion has such a negative effect on health and why it is so important that it is properly addressed.

There are numerous scientific case studies reporting improvement of symptoms following chiropractic care and over my 17 years of practice I personally have been able to help many children, athletes and non-athletes recover from such injuries. I also would like to add that even when people are experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, and vertigo that did not arise from a concussion, correcting upper neck subluxation is often of great benefit.

If you have suffered a concussion call Dr. Warren Gage at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic for an assessment at (250) 803-0224.

This will ensure the baked goods are moist but with a lot less fat.

• Add fresh berries or raisins to breakfast cereals and oatmeal.

• Add cauliflower or squash to boiled potatoes before mashing them to increase the nutritional punch and flavor of mashed potatoes.

• Blend fruits and vegetables to create smoothies for breakfast or lunch on the go.

• Bake hearty muffins or breads with sweet potato or carrots in the batter.

• Mix stewed tomatoes in with your broth soup base to make a vegetable or chicken soup even more nutritious.

• Opt for vegetables piled high atop a slice of pizza in lieu of meats or extra cheese.

• Divide your dinner plate into quadrants, filling half of the plate with vegetables, one quarter with meat and the remainder with a whole grain.

• Replace lettuce on a sandwich or burger with a fresh leaf of spinach. While you’re dressing your sandwich, add a slice of tomato, too.

• Substitute fresh vegetables and fruit slices for chips when serving dips and salsas. Kale chips are growing in popularity.

Fruits and vegetables are the building blocks of a healthy diet. But many people do not eat the recommended number of servings of produce. That’s especially true among growing children, who can benefit greatly from the vitamins and nutrients fruits and vegetables provide.

According to the latest data from the NPD Group, a market research firm, Americans eat a little more than half a cup of fruit and a cup of vegetables per day. This is less than half of what the government recommends. The data is similar in Canada, where researchers at Concordia University found that Canadian adults ages 30 to 60, especially those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, aren’t consuming the daily recommended levels of fruits and vegetables.

Anyone who eats roughly 2,000 calories per day should strive to consume between two to three cups of vegetables and two cups of fruit per day.

Produce helps to fight disease because it contains healthy antioxidants, fibre, minerals and vitamins. Eating four cups per day may seem difficult, but there are many ways to incorporate fruits and vegetables into everyday recipes.

• Substitute pureed fruit, like

• Give children a cup of sliced grapes with their lunches as a refreshing and healthy snack.

• Shred vegetables into a hearty “slaw” and top it with a vinaigrette or a typical mayonnaise-based dressing.

• Blend other vegetables into your pasta sauce.

• Use vegetables instead of pasta in traditional dishes.

Layer eggplant slices to make a lasagna. Or use a spiral slicer to slice zucchini or carrots when making homemade noodles.

• Fruit salad is often a refreshing snack or dessert.

Having fruit already diced in a large bowl makes it more convenient to eat and possibly more enticing to children.

• Make a vegetable roll-up, filling pizza dough with broccoli or spinach and shredded cheese.

• Mix together an avocado, 1/4 cup of cocoa powder and 1/4 cup honey to create a healthy alternative to chocolate pudding.

• Use pureed vegetables to thicken cheese sauce for macaroni and cheese recipes.

ANGLICAN BISHOP MOVES HERE FROM VICTORIA When Bishop James Cowan retired in Victoria as Bishop of British Columbia just over a year ago at age 62, he took a year off to rest, and then felt the call to return to parish ministry. When he saw an online posting for this area, he and wife Annette decided they would like to move here.

He applied and got the job. Two Sundays a month, the Rt. Rev. James Cowan will be at the Enderby church at 9:30 a.m. and at the Armstrong church at 11 a.m. Two Sundays a month he will be at St. John’s Anglican Church in Salmon Arm at 10 a.m. His first liturgy in Salmon Arm will be on Sunday, Oct. 26, followed by a potluck lunch.

He prefers to be called Jim or James, but once a bishop, always a bishop, so calling him by that title is OK. James and Annette will make their home in Armstrong.

FINALLY, DAN BASKILL AND BLIND BAY RESORT RECEIVED APPROVAL AT THIRD READING After a nine-year attempt to get approvals to improve the Blind Bay Resort for Area C in the south Shuswap, Dan Baskill has received the green light. During the October 16 board meeting of Columbia Shuswap Regional District, at third reading, directors voted four to two in favour. The RV site owners and public tourists who frequent the resort will no doubt breathe a sigh of relief. We will watch with interest as the Baskills complete the plans they’ve proposed for 2015.

D&G COMPUTERS MOVES FROM PICCADILLLY Doug and Glynis Lynn were looking to update and modernize their computer business in a larger location. After 18 years in Piccadilly Mall, changes were in order. Talking to Carol Van Ommen in the Sewing Basket one day, Glynis learned that she was moving her business to the former Honda building, owned by Bill Laird.

After a quick call to Jim Grieve, the leasing agent for the location, with much excitement, plans were made to relocate and build a new computer store. “Bill’s a good guy to work with,” says Doug. “He’s the man when it comes to downtown improvement!” The new D&G opened on Sept 2nd next to Carol Van Ommen’s store, now called Thread & Paper Crafts Ltd. The computer store is double the size of the previous location which was so packed they could hardly move. It faces the highway and has a great view of McGuire Lake and Salmon Arm. With a 600 sq. ft glass

storefront it is bright and airy with lots of room. Everyone is invited to drop by and say hello.

OREST WROTE HOW HE QUIT SMOKING “Cigarettes had just gone up in price to $2.10 per 20 king-sized, however this was not the real reason. I had tried quitting many times before. I smoked for 30 years.

This time I made a decision to quit. I DID NOT tell anyone that I had quit. Both my wife and I smoked, always had a carton of cigarettes in the cupboard. I took a fresh pack of smokes out of the carton, but did not break the seal. I thought that IF things got real bad I would open the pack and smoke again. The first day I pulled the pack out of my shirt pocket about 40 times, each time slipping it back saying; ‘You can wait another 15 min. or so.’ The second day I once again put the pack in my shirt pocket, this time I only pulled it out about 20 times, again returning it to my pocket. On the third day I wrote on the pack, I quit, Jan. 4, 1984 and put it into my pocket. On the fourth day I removed the covering on the pack and returned it to the carton. I did not want anyone to see the note I wrote on it.

I have never touched a cigarette since. It was about three weeks after quitting that one of my children asked me, ‘Dad, did you quit smoking?’ I never told anyone because I did not want to disappoint myself or them. With inflated chest I answered: ‘Yes, three weeks ago.’ This is how it worked for me. To conclude this epistle, I only wish I could return and never start the habit. Now I am suffering for it. I speak to smokers when I see them smoking and tell my story.”

APPRECIATED STORIES ABOUT HORSES AND DONKEYS One of the 45 people who receives this column by email wrote, “Thank you so much for that info on Liz Mitten and her horses AND the donkeys! Loved them both.... I just wish I’d known exactly where these two places were when I was driving back and forth between Revelstoke and Vancouver these past years. Now that I’ve moved back down from Revelstoke to the Lower Mainland I’ll never have the opportunity to see them. Nonetheless I really enjoyed learning about them. Liz Mitten is amazing!

Thank you so much! And thanks for those other two links too, Sally. You never cease to interest and amaze me with your items! Much more interesting than any other columnist or newspaper! Thank you so much for all that you share with us.”

I had sent this to the writer: There are similar places in Langley. Google: Langley horse retreats. Here are two: “Women healing with horses: www.wisteriaacres.com,” and “Healing with horses, a cancer retreat specially designed for men and women: www.unbridlingyourbrilliance.com.”

SHARING OF PETTING ZOO ANIMALS IS A BUSINESS FOR ALBERTA COUPLE “You’re from Salmon Arm? We’re going to be at the IPE in Armstrong!” Al and Carol Borys have a petting zoo business. On a farm outside Edmonton they raise birds and animals that children enjoy. I met them at the Ukrainian Festival in Andrew, AB in late August, and they invited me to see them at the IPE, where they also offered pony rides.

Some chickens and baby goats need to be rotated because they cannot stand to be amongst people all day. They need to rest. Al said about eight years ago the IPE realized it had many rides and activities for young kids and teens, and needed something to entertain little people. They contracted Thistle Hill Farm to bring its petting zoo and pony rides to Armstrong, and now kids of all ages enjoy seeing and petting the animals and riding the ponies. petfarm@telus.net FREE DISPOSAL OF ORGANIC YARD WASTE AND METAL WASTE TO NOVEMBER 23 The Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) offers free disposal events twice a year at its landfills and transfer stations, for organic yard waste and metal waste.

Letters to the Editor Celebrating our foster parents

October is Foster Family Appreciation Month in BC, so let’s celebrate foster parents.

Foster parents are an exceptional group of people who live in our community. They may be your friends, your neighbours or your co-workers. These low-profile, but highly valued individuals offer foster children guidance, connection, supervision, advocacy, positive life memories and much more.

Human beings are social creatures with an instinctive need to attach. Foster Parents provide attachment opportunities, but at the same time need to prepare that child to move on to permanency. Yes, permanency is the goal – that safe place the foster child can call their ‘forever

family.’ This often means that the child is able to return to their biological family or move on to an adoptive home. A high percentage of the adoptive homes are foster parents themselves.

Foster parents meet high standards set by the Ministry of Children and Family Development. Fragile newborns to bristly eighteen-year-olds all need extraordinary care for a variety of reasons. Sometimes they stay for a day or two, but often for a year or longer. In many cases, lifetime relationships are developed between foster children and their caregivers.

Qualities they possess are flexibility, patience, a sense of humour, resilience, loving kindness and a ‘never-give-

up’ attitude. Often with silently broken hearts, they release this child into a new and hopeful chapter of his or her young life. Against harsh odds, foster parents believe in the potential good within each child or youth who comes into their care.

During the past six years I have met and worked with some of the best people you’d ever want to know – foster parents. Their exceptional efforts to help each individual foster child, have left me inspired and often speechless.

Please join with me in celebrating our Shuswap foster parents!

Toxic foods for dogs

By Emily Corrie Our dogs are our friends and members of our family; it’s only natural that we would want to share our treats and dinner leftovers with them.

Human food can be a great supplement to your dog’s diet, but some common human foods are highly toxic to dogs. Read on to find out what foods you should not feed your dog and to learn the symptoms of a dog who has ingested these foods.

Onions: Onions, garlic, chives, and leeks can destroy your dog’s red blood cells. Symptoms include weakness, anemia, vomiting, lack of appetite, dullness, and breathlessness.

Caffeine: Caffeine poisoning can be fatal.

Symptoms include restlessness, heart palpitations, rapid breathing, and muscle tremors.

Grapes: Yes, those seemingly innocent little fruits are highly toxic to dogs and just a few grapes (or raisins!) can make your dog very ill.

The most common symptom is repeated vomiting. Ingesting a large amount of grapes can cause kidney failure.

Macadamia nuts: Many nuts are not good for dogs, but macadamia nuts can be fatal. Symptoms include muscle tremors, weakness, paralysis of the hind quarters, high temperature, and high heart rate.

Chocolate: We all know chocolate is toxic to dogs, but did you know that different types of chocolate have different toxicity levels?

Theobromine, the toxic agent in chocolate, is found even in white chocolate, but the highest levels are found in dark and unsweetened chocolate. Symptoms include excessive thirst, diarrhea, tremors, seizures, and vomiting.

Prescription medications: The most common culprit in poison cases is prescription medication. Treat your dog like you would a child and keep your prescriptions safely out of reach.

If you suspect that your dog has ingested any of these foods, and you witness any of these symptoms, please contact your veterinarian immediately. Of course, the best course of action is to prevent your pooch from having access to these foods in the first place.

Short pants

First of all, I want to acknowledge one of my loyal readers who brought me a nice plush purple rabbit to display in my office and to remind me that I still have a lot of work to do when it comes to my running. Thanks, Renate! It’s good to know a few people still read my articles.

As you know, I have four energetic boys who are now at the age where the food bill has become the biggest expense each month, and leftovers are few and far between. You almost have to wear body armour at the supper table to get what you want!

So with growing boys, you also have the issue of trying to keep them in clothes that fit. I get told that the big benefit of having all boys is that they can pass clothes down to each other. Sounds great, except when your second son absolutely beats his clothes to a pulp, there’s nothing left to pass on except a few threads. This means number three (the Junior Bean Counter) often gets new stuff that can “in theory” be passed down to the youngest. The only problem we’re having right now is the youngest is growing like a weed, and is practically the same size as his older brother.

In fact, the other day my wife was getting our youngest to try on all the pants he has, to see what still fits and what doesn’t. After a long morning of trying on clothes, it was pretty clear

SASCU getaway winner

SASCU Credit Union awarded Krista Schneider, the lucky winner of our 2014 Renew Mortgage Campaign, a weekend getaway at Sparkling Hill Resort in Vernon.

Ballots were available in-branch and online at sascu.com April through August.

Along with the opportunity to receive a free fresh perspective on their mortgage or home equity line of credit options, applicants were entered for a chance to win the prize valued at $2500.

“It was quite a sur-

prise,” says Krista.

“We probably won’t go right away, because we just returned from our honeymoon, but it will be nice to have for a getaway at a later date.”

“The Renew contest was a great way to connect with people, talk about their mortgage and lending needs, and figure out how to make their mortgage work for them,” says Mark Thio, Senior Manager of Branch Operations.

by Daron Mayes he had grown out of pretty much everything he owned. I guess I wasn’t totally surprised as it looked to me like we were sending the kid to school lately looking he was preparing for a flood or a Steve Urkel convention.

My wife explained to Nate that he had grown a bunch and he wasn’t going to be able to wait for the Junior Bean Counter to pass down his pants. Therefore, the two of them were going to have to go on a little shopping trip together.

“Wow, I didn’t know I was growing that much! It seems like I’m going through puberty!” he exclaimed.

At that point my wife almost choked because our youngest is only eight years old and thankfully isn’t going through puberty. Obviously, he had heard the term thrown around in reference to his oldest brother and the growth spurt he has gone through recently, and put it together in his mind what that meant.

I can deal with buying a few extra pair of pants and even an ever-growing food bill, but to have another boy going through puberty in our house would be enough all a person could handle; especially if it’s happening when he’s eight!

Meditations Read: John 20: 24 - 31, 1 Corinthians 15:1-19.

Faith’s Resting Place That if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. - Romans 10:9 The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the greatest event in the history of the world. Friend and foe alike, admit to his life and death as a historical fact, but many will not believe that he rose from the dead. As Luke records in Acts 17:32, "When they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked? Even the disciples of Jesus were incredulous as they beheld the empty tomb, and heard the angel say, "He is not here, but is risen." They had watched him bring the dead back to life but they struggled to believe.

Thomas was the sceptic. He said, "Except I see, I will not believe." His initial response was so like the world today. Only sight will satisfy. To many the door of faith is sealed by the seals of atheism, materialism, indifference and worldliness. They go blindly on, manifesting faith in the worn-out theories of evolution, deluded by the false god of humanism.

Nothing lies behind or beyond to the non-spiritual. I see the whole class of critical unbelief, rambling around the garden of the tomb wherein Christ was laid, with hammers, and spectacles, and carbon daters, checking out the rocks, and analyzing leaf mold, trying to determine whether the cataclysmic event of the resurrection really occurred, saying, "Highly unlikely, highly unlikely." They do this, never seeing the empty tomb or the angel right in front of them.

We have the record, so we have the faith? Christ shows himself alive to those who believe. The receiving heart is most sure to feel the aura of His presence and power. Lord, I believe!

High prices hard to bear

I own and operate a lawn care business and the price of gas is reflected in the costs I have when selling this service to my customers. My prices are higher because of this. I wonder sometimes how other similar companies can do it for less. I have been mowing lawns for over seven years and I have hesitated to increase my fees. Many of my customers are seniors on a limited income who, because of their age, can’t do the mowing themselves, and have no choice but to hire someone to do it for them.

I end up saying to myself, maybe the price of gas won’t be so high this year, and this often results in a few cases of me doing my job for next to nothing, or breaking even. With my type of business you have to set your prices in the spring, never knowing what kind of gouging you will get once the summer prices hit.

draining many dollars from our Salmon Arm economy. Mayor Nancy Cooper and City Council are working to get gas prices down also.

Please email your letters to them as well as both local papers so they know just how many voters (election is coming up soon!) are sick and tired of being gouged by the gas companies.

When you see gas price protesters outside gas stations, please honk in support. Also please do NOT harass gas station employes as they have no say in setting gas prices and are only doing their jobs.

This is Mayor Nancy Cooper’s email address: ncooper@salmonarm.ca This is the link for the Ombudsman where you can also email letters: http://www.competitionbureau.gc.ca/eic/site/ cb-bc.nsf/eng/home This link will let you read the article in the Shuswap Market News about Ernie Sheil’s 1-man protest outside the Husky on Oct 11/14: http://www.saobserver.net/news/279353762. html To all the people who have visited our Facebook page but not yet joined and commented and to those who believe that this protest will do nothing, I say it is the non-voters in elections who complain later when there are no changes made. The same goes for this protest: if you do not join and write letters and make your voice heard then you have no right to complain any longer about high prices of gas and other things in Salmon Arm! Please join us to try to get our gas prices lowered!

Head offices set prices

Further to Marian Reeves’ article about getting ripped off at the pumps in Salmon Arm, while I agree that we are indeed getting ripped off, the local retailers have absolutely no say whatsoever about the price of fuel. It is the head offices (price desks) of the oil companies that set the prices and local retailers are not allowed to adjust those prices unless specifically told to do so. By boycotting the local stations, the only people getting hurt are the local businesspeople who run the stations.

And, please don’t take your frustration out on the staff of these stations. If you want to complain, write to the oil companies.

Pump protest

As every citizen of Salmon Arm knows, gas prices in Salmon Arm have skyrocketed for years in comparison to surrounding towns and cities. Well, we are fed up! A gas price protest group has swelled in recent days with its Facebook page “Organized Boycott of Local Gas Prices” gaining more members by the hour.

The number stood at 221 as of 9:00 a.m. on Oct 20/14. There are many members who have actually been out protesting at Husky and we are zeroing in on two big gas companies both owned

by Suncor. We would really appreciate anyone who has not yet joined to go to our facebook page and read all the comments, join, and add your own comments. Do please remember that this Facebook page is a public page and it will be read world-wide, which is one of the best things about it as there are many millions of people (especially Americans) who are also disgusted by the collusion among the gas and oil companies to keep gas prices high even though the cost of oil has steadily gone down in recent months.

Many Salmon Arm residents go to Enderby, Fas Gas (where they’ll give you a card and once your points reach $10 you get $10 off that gas fill-up), Kamloops and Vernon for their gas where it is always from 10 cents to 20 cents less than in Salmon Arm. We intend to try to change that. All these people would rather ‘shop local,’ but since they go elsewhere for their gas, they

Grommet panels

Grommet panels are not going away, for which I am truly sorry. So, I’ll admit defeat and stop complaining. And in the spirit of acceptance, here are a few things you should know about them if you are considering buying some.

Grommets panels are meant to be used at two times fullness or less. This means that a 48-inch wide grommet panel is meant to cover 24 inches of rod. If your window is 74 inches wide, you will need three grommet panels for appropriate fullness. Now the problem comes in because on a 74-inch rod you will probably have a centre support which forces two panels to one side of the support and one on the other side. Therefore, you really need four panels. Grommet panels will never lie flat across the rod, either, so don’t try to get away with the “Well one panel is 48-inches wide and I only need 37 inches” argument. Won’t work.

Pre-made grommet panels stack open with the fabric between the grommets folding in half and extending into the room for half the spaces and toward the wall for half the spaces. If the distance between the grommets is six inches the panels will create a three-inch-deep fold both forward into the room and back toward the win-

dow. Make sure your brackets are adjustable enough so you can extend them far enough that the drapes do not rub against the wall.

There are two huge challenges with pre-made panels. First, is that they rarely have truly straight hems. Invariably the bottom edge will lift up as it approaches the side hems, sometimes by as much as two inches. This is caused by tension in the sewing of the side hems, and the only way to fix it is to open the side hems and re-sew them. The second challenge is pressing. It is highly unlikely that you will be able to steam or press out the fold marks. Save yourself grief and have them professionally pressed.

Having said all that, though, pre-made panels can save you a lot of money. Have your drapery maker sew the panels together and fix the side hems and they will do their job.

I have a neat way of altering these panels which makes them open and close with the fullness moving across the rod, keeping the folds even all the time.

Check Designsewlutions.ca for some before and afters of altered grommet panels.

Discussing current events, the economy and investing in a relaxed, informal setting is a great way to get to know one another. Plus, enjoy interesting guest speakers.

Jazz Club night

➤

Hours: Monday-Friday 8am - 5pm

Salmon Arm – For the fifth consecutive year, Triple O’s and its guests are teaming up to put British Columbia’s financially underprivileged children into organized sports this season. Since the fundraiser kicked off four years ago, Triple O’s has already raised $93,000. This year’s goal is an ambitious $30,000.

For the month of October, guests were encouraged to donate to KidSport BC at any of the 32 participating Triple O’s locations across the province. The fundraiser’s big day is Friday, October 24, when the roster of Triple O’s donates $1 to KidSport BC with the sale of every combo.

Funds raised go to the nearest KidSport community chapter, allowing kids to participate in local, organized sports ranging from hockey and baseball to gymnastics and lacrosse. KidSport has provided financial assistance to half a million kids since its inception in 1993.

Sicamous & District Chamber of Commerce and Sicamous & District Seniors Centre Society co-hosts two all-candidates forums for the residents where the two mayoral candidates and the twelve council candidates will be available to answer questions.

The event will be moderated and timed. Due to the large number of candidates who will be speaking, there will be no open microphone. The public is asked to pre-submit their questions online or drop them by the Chamber or Visitor Centre. Selected questions will be chosen by the Review Panel.

Questions can be submitted to the review panel at info@sicamouschamber.bc.ca, or drop them off to the Chamber Office at 314a Finlayson St., or the Visitor Centre at #3, 446 Main St. Deadline for submitting questions is Noon on October 27th.

The forums take place Wednesday, October 29th, 7:00 p.m. and Tuesday, November 4, 2:00 p.m. at the Sicamous Senior Centre, 1091 Shuswap Ave. Doors open half an hour earlier.

MLA visits local businesses

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

JOIN US AS WE CELEBRATE THE OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTION OF B.C.’S SMALL BUSINESSES.

SMALL BUSINESS WEEK OCT 19-25

October is Small Business Month, and last week Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo visited local car dealerships and presented them with the Small Business Proclamation. As last week was also Manufacturers’ Week, he visited three manufacturers and presented them with the Manufacturers’ Week Proclamation.

Energy efficiency.

Good for smaller footprints.

And your bottom line.

Don’t let your operating costs leave you in the cold this winter.

As a small business, you probably want to focus on making money.

FortisBC can help reduce your operating costs with no-cost and low-cost energy saving tips to help lower your monthly natural gas bill and reduce your environmental footprint.

If you’re in the position to upgrade space and water heating systems or commercial cooking equipment, FortisBC also offers rebates on highefficiency models.

Small actions can add up to savings Think about cutting costs where you won’t notice it. If your business uses natural gas for heating or cooking, here are some easy tips from FortisBC to help you save energy and money.

Save hot water ■ Fix leaky taps and install watersaving aerators on kitchen and bathroom faucets.

■ If running a commercial kitchen consider installing a low-flow spray valve to pre-rinse dishes. These devices use approximately 50 per cent less water than standard types.

■ If you can access your hot water pipes, wrap them with foam or rubber pipe insulation to prevent heat loss.

■ Install a programmable thermostat and program it to 20 °C when at work and no more than 17 °C when no one is there.

■ Your space could stay warm for up to an hour before the heating system needs to kick in again, so why not program your thermostat to turn down the heat an hour before you close shop.

■ If you operate a street front business, don’t leave the door open on cold days as it’ll push all your heated air out the door.

Upgrading can save you two ways When it’s time to upgrade, check out FortisBC’s rebates for highefficiency boilers, water heaters and cooking equipment. In addition to the rebate, you’ll experience ongoing savings on your natural gas bill with more efficient appliances installed. If you’re not sure what upgrade is right for your business, consider a free consultation from a business energy advisor. It’s all part of how FortisBC is helping businesses save energy and money.

Fresh prints in the soft mud on the rutted old Cariboo logging road showed that two wolves were after the same moose we were after. From the tall grass of a distant poplar treed hill, their mate howled a warning.

Last week I accompanied a young hunter and his grandpa on a limited-entry draw for a bull moose. The lad also had a draw for a mule deer doe. Arriving at a friend’s comfortable home on Bridge Lake, it didn’t take long for us to draw up plans for likely areas, to start our week-long excursion to bag a bull moose. It also didn’t take long, travelling to many moose-y and deer locations and hunting hard, to realize that something was terribly wrong. All we saw in that time was three animals, one with antlers, and no deer.

There were about 100 LEH authorizations allotted to moose hunters, and the many we talked to had seen neither moose nor deer. The problems are many for the animals in wildlife management Zone 5-1. This started with a tiny flying insect, the mountain pine beetle, that devastated hundreds of miles of forest. Next came salvage logging, on thousands of hectares, to remove dead or infected timber, leaving vast areas open to predation of deer and moose by various predators.

The many areas we hunted, were around ponds or wildlife leave strips. Nearby ranches had removed their cattle early. Many cows have been grazing hundreds of hectares of unplanted seedlings, while others were planted. Now, forest companies are harvesting remaining green timber. The Bonaparte Plateau is now a moonscape. An article in a recent issue of BC Outdoors magazine, called “Central BC’s missing moose” delves into the problem. For years, wildlife management goes from crisis to crisis, dealing with obstacles such as underfunding, unregulated hunting, increased access, and increased predation by wolves. Decline in high-demand species such as moose have a waterfall effect on hunters, conservation, and ultimately the wildlife itself.

Resident moose harvest has declined 40% since the 1980’s from 11,300 to 6,788. Since 2005, hunter numbers have also increased 14% from 85,633, to 97,828, with LEH applications also having increased by 14% from 55,783 in 2005, to 63,898 in 2012. So, to make more moose and increase populations, we have to invest in habitat improvement, as well as reduce wolf populations through a major cull, instead of the province’s view of an ecological approach. (If there are heavy wolf and bear populations, they target moose and deer calves, causing a major decline in that species). With increased hunters, both new and aging, we need biologists, researchers, and managers. While inventory work on wildlife

by Hank Shelley

species, including moose, have increased, we are light years behind other jurisdictions, and we need more funding. In 2011, the BC government collected over $25 million in license revenue and only spent $20 million on fish and wildlife management. For most regions in BC, wildlife managers don’t have the tools to effectively conserve, manage, or even monitor wildlife populations. It’s pity that we have gone on for so many years, with a pittance going to managing, regulating, and meanwhile seeing our wildlife including deer/elk/moose numbers decline, when the funding is dictated from Victoria. Members of the Legislative Assembly decide who gets the bigger piece of the pie when funding is doled out. If you value your hunting and fishing for now and for your grandkids, get in touch with your MLA and tell it like it is.

Coming back from our hunt, I talked to other hunters who had been to Fort Saint James and Prince George for some moose hunting. Very few moose were seen, but lots of wolves were. As well, if the harvesting of timber continues at an accelerated pace, there will inevitably be be major mill closures in the future, with a lot of rusted iron laying around in the remaining bush!

Here and there in the Shuswap Grizzly bears are the focus of attention of late, and of course the latest was the bear playing with the trail cam on a logging road bridge, seen on Global News this week. As well, a lady in the Yukon was attacked and killed. Two attacks of grizzlies on hunters near Fernie also made headlines. Grizzlies are now populating north Vancouver Island. Locally, the big bruins are increasing around Malakwa and Mara. While doing a fish fencing project for DFO on Senn Creek in the Malakwa area a few seasons back, we saw a sow and cubs rolling around bales of hay looking for mice. It’s just a heads up for hunters out there that packing bear spray may not be a bad idea.

Hunting: While we do have wolves in our area, they have definitely reduced deer and moose numbers. There’s a three-animal bag limit for hunters, although they are pretty wise critters and are seldom seen. Good hunting and fall fishing!

Poaching: While driving back from Sicamous in the dark recently, I noticed headlights driving up a bush road off the 1-11. There will be an increase of poaching because of lack of CO presence and reporting. Deer, moose, and other wildlife are yours to protect as hunters and anglers, so get off your butt while out in the field, and be the eyes and ears for the COs.

Your family depends on you to arrive safely. Plan ahead.

Check weather and road conditions, make sure your vehicle is winter ready and drive for the conditions.

Know before you go.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT Odd Couple opens Friday

Big trip, Big Apple Shuswap Community Foundation President Dave Wood, left, presents fiber artists Melissa Nasby, centre, and Nikki Webber with a cheque for $1000 to help with their trip to New York.

Melissa and Nikki entered a Jim Henson character contest, and received honourable

mention for their creation ‘Nym,’ which placed them in the top ten and garnered them an invitation to New York to meet the Hensons as

well as fantasy illustrators Brian and Wendy Froud. Nym was the only Canadian creation to have made it into the top ten. Staff photo.

The creation of Nym Vote for arts venue Shuswap Centre for the Performing Arts needs

By Nikki Webber

It all began with a late night text from Melissa asking if I was going to the upcoming Artisans’ Market bright and early the next morning. Tired and exhausted, with a hot cup of tea finally in my hands, and nothing prepared for a show, I was hesitant to agree and move from my comfy nest on the couch. But I knew it would be fun to spend the day with Melissa, and she can be incredibly persuasive when she sets her mind to something.

“What time do we have to set up?”

“7:00 a.m.”

(Groan) “Ok.” In hindsight I am so incredibly happy that I dragged my tuckus off that couch and out to the early morning market the next day.

Two cinematic gems

Love is Strange: After nearly four decades together, Ben (John Lithgow) and George (Alfred Molina) finally marry in lower Manhattan. But when George loses his job, they must sell their apartment and live apart until they can find an affordable new home. George moves in with two cops who live down stairs, and Ben with his nephew in Brooklyn, his wife, and their teenage son, with whom Ben shares a bedroom. While struggling with the pain of separation, Ben and George are further challenged by the intergenerational tensions and capricious family dynamics of their new living arrangements.

Love Is Strange shows on Saturday Oct. 25th, at 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

Life Itself: This documentary explores the impact and legacy of Roger Ebert’s life: from his Pulitzer Prize-winning film criticism and his nearly quarter-century run with Gene Siskel on their review show, to his inspiring battles with cancer and the resulting physical disability. Director Steve James incorporates photography, interviews, and archival footage to build his story of an irascible and flawed man who loved cinema – a story that is by turns personal, funny, painful, and transcendent.

Based on Ebert’s bestselling memoir of the same name, Life Itself shows on Wednesday, Oct. 29th at 7:30 p.m. at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

you! A group of people are working to build a performing arts centre in Salmon Arm. Many local residents realize that dance, music, touring groups and large theatrical productions don’t have a great place to perform. So, a group of people are working to build a performing arts centre in Salmon Arm. Fundraising has begun, and there is a project started through Aviva Insurance that requires votes to qualify for funding, in a similar way to Hockeyville. And you can help the Shuswap Performing Arts Centre happen. Aviva Insurance gives a total of $1 million to community projects. You just have to vote once a day starting Monday, October 20 to November 3, and again November 20 to December 4. First, you need to register and then you can vote. $100,000 is needed to carry out initial preparations.

This address will get you there–just copy and paste and save it in your favourites for the next day.

Go to https://www.avivacommunityfund.org/ ideas/2015/acf21051 or https://www.avivacommunityfund.org/ideas/acf21051.

Opening this Friday is Shuswap Theatre’s “The Odd Couple” by Neil Simon, starring Fred Green as fussy Felix Ungar and George Rithalder as messy Oscar Madison.

This hilarious and wellknown comedy, directed by Julia Body and produced by Kathy Moore, takes place in New York City in the 60’s and promises to be lots of fun. With a cast that includes Randy Brogden, Mike Nash, Peter Molnar, Randy Piccini, Michelle La Grange Holmes and

Helen Wall, it runs from October 24th to November 8th and you can now buy your tickets online at shuswaptheatre.com. Tickets are $20 for adults, $18 for seniors, $10 for youth, and $5 for 12 and under as well as ShuGo participants.

Thursday nights are ‘pay what you can.’

You can also purchase tickets at Intwined Fibre Arts, 141C Hudson Ave NE, or at the theatre box office, 41 Hudson Ave NW. Don’t miss it!

SPORTS & LEISURE Tier 2 Tips claim a victorious weekend

By James Thompson Salmon Arm’s Bantam Tier 2 Silvertips returned home on Saturday for their third regulation game of the season against Kelowna. Play in the first frame seemed to be almost entirely in the opponents zone. The Scotiabank Tips showed up on the scoreboard first and left the initial period with a score of 2-0 in their favour. A momentary lapse in energy and judgment was quite obvious as the second period started and Salmon Arm watched a two-goal lead disappear. The third stage of the game started on a completely different note as the Silvertips regained control and potted four goals through the period to give them their third season win with a 6-2 final. Scoring came from

Sunday was another travel day and we went right back to Westside to take on the Warriors in a regular season battle. Salmon Arm played this team with some intensity and hesitance as they knew it would be a tough challenge. The game’s tone was one of mutual respect knowing each other’s abilities. The shot clock was a little uneven at first in favour of Westside, but as the match progressed things evened out quite well. The game remained scoreless until deep

Samurais split to open season

By Peter Kociuba The Atom Rec Leko Precast Samurais opened their season on Saturday with a game against the North Okanagan Knights in Armstrong. The Samurai’s team consists of skaters Hunter Burk, Joel DeHoog, Kurtis Einfeld, Kashton Housden, Joseph Jones, Natasha Kociuba, Carter Lorenz, Gabriel Niewenhuizen, Wyatt O’Brien, Ky Ralston, Blake Ruff, Taylor Sanford, Sebastien Sayers, Nathaniel Tettolowski and Trent Thiessen; along with goaltenders Jordan Perepolkin and Abraxas Sharp; coach Val Kloska; assistants Corey Sharp, Darren Lorenz and Brad Housden; and manager Angela Jones.

Salmon Arm came charging out of the gate with Kashton Housden popping his first of the season just three minutes into the first period. Although they had many chances for the remainder of the first and the complete second period, the Samurai’s were unable to solve the Knight’s goaltender until early in the third when Abraxas Sharp would slip it between his pads and into the net, his first of two on the evening. Sebastien Sayers would tap in a rebound with seven minutes left in the third, and Natasha Kociuba would seal the victory for Salmon Arm, set up by linemate Taylor Sanford.

Sunday’s tilt vs Vernon had a different outcome for the Samurai’s, as they fell to home team by an 8-7 final. Kociuba returned the favour from the previous game and set up Sanford for Salmon Arm’s opening marker less than a minute into the game. That kicked off a seesaw battle with teams trading goals back and forth, but neither going up by more than two. Kurtis Einfeld, Sebastien Sayers, Kashton Housden and Jordan Perepolkin with a hat-trick rounded out the scoring for the Samurais.

Salmon Arm welcomes another Vernon team to the pond this Sunday.

Horseshoe Club winds down

By Faith Juell The Salmon Arm Horseshoe Club is winding down its season activities with afternoon practices continuing on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 2:00 p.m., weather permitting.

Our year-end fun day was held on a sunny Saturday afternoon, October 4, with most members able to participate. During early afternoon members pitched in a round robin competition.

By 3:00 p.m. competition was completed, and we enjoyed a coffee break prior to the annual business meeting. Expense reports such as insurance, repairs, and clubhouse requirements were discussed, and the main business of officer election began.

Doug Winslow agreed to let his name stand again for president, and in the absence of any further nominations, is leading the club again.

Edwin Krieg became vice president, while Faith Juell and Amy Kidd remain as secretary and treasurer. Tom Ingebrigtson is stepping in as a director, joining Ted Honkala and Matt Honkanen.

Following the meeting, members and spouses were able to enjoy a potluck dinner on the sunny deck at our clubhouse. A special thank you to the ladies who prepared and served our traditional dinner of corn on the cob, a variety of hot and cold dishes, and lovely desserts.

While weather permits, practices will continue on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at the horsehoe pits. For info call Doug at 250-8328520 or Faith at 250-832-9873. Meanwhile, many members have started winter activities such as curling, darts, bowling, cards, and traveling.

The creation of Nym continued

Continued from page 13 Besides being an amazing day filled with fabulous people, and wonderful creative energy, it’s always amazing sharing a booth with Melissa – she has this boundless enthusiasm that is positively contagious!

And it was at the Artisans’ festivities, amid the bustle and hubbub of our day, that Melissa mentions something to me that she saw on Facebook, and her eyes begin to light up as she tells me – it’s from Jim Henson Studios and it’s a contest to “Create a Dark Crystal Creature”! My breath catches in my throat as she looks at me and asks, “Do you want to enter?”

My heart, thundering so loud that I’m sure even the vendors halfway down the block can hear, stops suddenly. “I’m in!”

That was three weeks before the contest deadline.

We got together and brainstormed late into the night, coming up with ideas, story, and characters, figuring out how they would fit into the amazing world of The Dark Crystal.

Fortunately we both grew up with the film and were already well versed in the lore of Jim Henson so by the end of that night we had enough material for a whole new movie and even a lead into a possible television series!

We realized then, just how amazing

this collaboration between Melissa and myself could possibly be.

We both went feverishly to work, I with character sketches and forming our ideas into a cohesive story and Melissa with sculpture and sourcing materials, while we both tossed ideas around for costume and the pieces that were so integral to the creation of our new evolving character – Nym.

Due to the reality that we both had other projects, work and families to juggle, it was always an organizing feat just to get us together to discuss the latest creative developments. When we could actually squeeze in some time, we would sit down, share our latest ideas, jostle through our to-do lists and part ways to continue working separately, and as time permitted in our busy lives, on our contributions to Nym. We would send questions and ideas through text and photos and

quickly realized that our strengths and skills are perfectly balanced, so we had a full repertoire of fibre skills between the two of us at our disposal. We also realized that we both had the same vision and mutual respect in each other’s artistic abilities so that the journey to Nym was in fact quite seamless in design and perfectly cohesive in execution.

A truly epic collaboration on all levels!

On the final week and after a couple solid days of working together, coupled with Melissa’s countless hours of fabulous needle felted sculpture skills, Nym was finally born! We attached pictures of her, typed in in her back story, and submitted the entry form to the “Create a Dark Crystal Creature Contest” – we had done it!

And honestly we felt that we had won right then and there! Not for the Grand Prize or any future recognition but just for the knowledge of what our creative partnership had taught us, when two kindred spirits create together, there’s nothing they can’t imagine and accomplish – we are so proud of Nym, and now she has taken on a whole persona and life of her own.

She made it to the top ten in a worldwide competition and received an “Honourable Mention” from Jim Henson Studios. Now she’s on her way to New York to meet Cheryl Henson and Brian and Wendy Froud!

We couldn’t be more proud of her.

DIESEL TRANSMISSIONS

FEATURE OF THE WEEK Making the seemingly impossible possible is one of the many strengths of Steelewood. As a one-stop shop from design to completion, Steelewood creates incredible structures, often under challenging conditions that other builders and architects wouldn't even consider. After many years in the Eagle Bay area of Shuswap Lake, building on difficult, often impassable sites, has become the norm for this small family run business. Tim Mascarenhas, along with his partner and young son, have lived and worked in the Shuswap for over 8 years now.

They, along with their foreman Andrew Schmidt, can help you create your perfect summer retreat or full time home. With years of experience between them, there can be no challenge too big or too small for them to overcome. They can renovate your existing structure and turn it into the home of your dreams; it is incredibly simple to install that new kitchen you have been dreaming about. How about a fabulous new deck to sit on and take in those breathtaking Shuswap sunsets?

"We are all about diversification"; to keep production strong, they offer a variety of services over and above design and construction. They build roads, landscape, excavate and install septic systems. Their clients are important to them and they are "always looking out for our clients’ best interest. We want them to be well informed and know their options so they can make educated decisions". It is a big investment for people and they need to feel trust in their builder. With the more information they gain, the more comfortable the process becomes. Steelewood owns their own excavator 220 and bobcat to make it easier to get materials into the rugged rough terrain around Eagle Bay. They can then do everything from building the driveway, to digging out the foundation, to putting in the cable, water, electricity and septic fields, which in the end saves on costs. Tim is often found on site in the excavator with his 4-year-old son Jaxson on his lap. Tim has a BA in Urban studies from the university of Calgary and a Master of Science with distinction from the University of Brunell in London, England. With this background, Steelewood is able to offer a unique blend of architectural design and precisely engineered construction built to last for generations to come.

A LOVING FAREWELL JEAN ISABEL FULLER

NOVEMBER 26, 1924 – October 14, 2014 On a glorious fall day, October 14, 2014, our family bid a loving farewell to Jean, our precious mother, grandmother, great grandmother, beloved sister and aunt. We celebrate her life and live in gratitude for her love. Jean has always been an inspirational mother to Lynda Wilson (Lorne), Marge Huk (Mike) and Dawn Ivanko (John). She treasured her ten grandchildren and twelve great grandchildren. Jean’s brother, Robert Davies, and sister, Marge Barrett, were always held dear to her heart and she loved her many nieces and nephews. Jean was predeceased by her beloved husband of sixty-two years, John, her parents, Charles and Kathleen Davies, her sister, Marjorie Barrett, and her grandson, Andrew Wilson.

Our mum was a proud Quebecois. For eighty years, Montreal was home. She grew up in a close knit, large, extended family, which shared a love of song, dance, laughter and good times with loved ones.

That rich tradition was shared as we grew up. Her love of animals and nature was fostered by summers spent with her dear sister and her beloved grandparents on the farm. Growing up during the Depression, times were tough but Mum learned the value of hard work and thrift; she developed resilience and strength, qualities she carried with her throughout life.

Mum was an avid learner. After graduating from Montreal’s Canadian Commercial College with a secretarial diploma, she worked as an executive secretary for several companies, including a high fashion manufacturer and an international hotel chain. Her career brought her great satisfaction. In her late fifties, she attended college once again where she obtained a diploma in social work. Later in life, Mum became a frequent participant in Elderhostel programs where she was able to fulfill her love of travel and learning. Truly, a lifelong learner.

The challenge of sports excited Mum. In her teen years, she was an avid skier, skater and swimmer. In her sixties and seventies, she could be found donning a pair of roller blades, cross country skis, or hiking boots. What a girl!

Kindness and generosity were instilled in Mum from an early age. An avid volunteer, Mum dedicated time to Meals on Wheels, the Victoria Order of Nurses foot care program, and the Cancer Society, where she accompanied people to appointments and treatments. Many hearts were touched by her caring and kindness. May we live by her example.

Throughout our lives, Mum was known for her strength, principles and integrity. We were not surprised when she announced in her seventies that she was attending rallies and carrying placards to protest the new language laws imposed by the Quebec Government. When our dad experienced delays with admission to the Veteran’s Hospital in Montreal, it was our Mum who wrote letters to the editor, to her MP, and her MLA. Needless to say, the matter was dealt with promptly. That was our Mum! At eighty years of age, with our Dad suffering from Alzheimer’s, Mum pulled up stakes and moved from Montreal to Salmon Arm to be close to her daughter, Lynda. How courageous she was! With the support of staff and residents of Piccadilly Terrace, she forged a new life. She found the people of Salmon Arm welcoming and very kind. With her passion for bridge, she made many new friends and found fulfillment sharing many good times with others. Mum’s seven years at Piccadilly Terrace enriched her life immeasurably.

Mum was a strong, independent woman who opened her heart to the needs of others with caring and kindness. She had the power to see the beauty within. We have been so blessed. Jean’s great kindness and her immense love of life and family will always live in our hearts.

Our family offers heartfelt thanks to the staff of the Good Samaritan Hillside Village and Shuswap Lodge for the care, compassion, and kindness they offered our Mum on a daily basis.

A celebration of our Mum’s life was held on Saturday, Oct. 18, 2014 at Bowers Funeral Chapel with Bishop James Cowan officiating. Memorial donations in Jean’s name can be made to the Good Samaritan – Hillside Village or the Shuswap Hospice Society.

Online condolences may be sent through Jean’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

Blake Baile It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Blake Baile, CMM, CD, on Saturday, October 11, after a short stay in the hospital at the age of 86. Blake was born in Trail, BC on June 9, 1928, and later moved to Vancouver.

During the period 1964 - 1966 in Army Headquarters and later Canadian Forces Headquarters, he was a staff officer in the Directorates of Equipment Policy and Project Formulation and Management.

Posted to Germany in 1966 he held the appointment of Commanding Officer 2nd Battalion, The Royal Canadian Regiment until 1968. That summer he became Assistant Chief of Staff G1 at Headquarters ACE Mobile Force (Land) in Seckenheim, Germany. Returning to Canada in 1970 he was SSO Doctrine at Mobile Command Headquarters in St. Hubert, PQ. In June 1973, he was promoted to Colonel and assumed the appointment of Deputy Chief of Staff Personnel Services at Air Transport Command Headquarters in Trenton, ON. Remaining in Trenton he was appointed Deputy Chief of Staff Operations in Canadian Forces Training System Headquarters in August 1975.

Promoted to Brigadier-General in August 1976, he was appointed Commander, Canadian Contingent to the United Nations Forces in the Middle East. Returning to Canada in July 1978 he became Chief of Staff Administration in Mobile Command Headquarters in St. Hubert, PQ. The following year he was appointed Chief of Staff Operations in the same headquarters.

In August 1980 he moved to Yellowknife, NWT to assume his final appointment in the Canadian Armed Forces as Commander Northern Region Headquarters.

Blake retired in 1983 and moved to Blind Bay, BC. In retirement, he became an avid golfer and fisherman, and was an active member of the Shuswap Lake Estates Golf and Country Club.

Left to mourn him are his wife and best friend Helen; children, Dr. Marcia Baile of Anglemont, BC; Geoffrey Baile of Chilliwack, BC; Colin Baile (Liz) of Yellowknife NWT; step-children Sally and Les Schumacher of Blind Bay, BC; and, Dr. Norman and MariAnn Mathew of Comox, BC, plus numerous grandchildren, stepgrandchildren, and great grandchildren.

For dry skin, incorporate more avocados into your diet. They’re rich in monounsaturated fat and vitamin E, both of which promote healthy skin.

Try them on salads and sandwiches, and even in smoothies.
