WORD SEARCH

CAPRICORN

Capricorn, you want to play outside of the rules this week. You normally like to follow a relatively traditional course, so this catches others off guard.

Jeff!

AQUARIUS

You don’t always have the patience to stick with the same routine, Aquarius. That means others cannot expect you to conform to their whims if they want you as a friend.

From the gang at Lakeshore News NOV. 2

PISCES

Pisces, you may need to sacrifice some security for a chance to have a memorable experience. Do something out of the ordinary.

ARIES

Aries, you want more than you can acquire this week and your desires may lead you astray. It is important to exercise self-restraint, even if you get a thrill from living on the edge.

TAURUS

Taurus, make a concerted effort to improve your focus in the weeks ahead. There is much to lose if you cannot tackle the tasks at hand, particularly at the workplace.

GEMINI

Gemini, it’s unlike you to slow down, so don’t be surprised when friends start looking at you curiously after you take your foot off the gas.

Your free spirited nature will soon return.

CANCER

Cancer, find a routine that works for you and then stick with it. There is no need to reinvent the wheel, and when actions become automatic, you can focus on other things.

LEO

A need for attention could get the better of you, Leo. A little humility goes a long way and can alter others’ perceptions of you. You may end up being seen in a more positive light.

VIRGO

Virgo, you can differentiate between right and wrong, but your judgement might be off this week.

Rely on your intuition, but don’t make any big decisions without first thinking carefully.

LIBRA

Libra, it may seem like you are being led astray by one thing after another, when all you want is to focus on one task at a time. Find a way to block out any and all distractions.

Finding the animals

Friday, October 31, 2014 Lakeshore News A3

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

That big mule buck or bull moose had just got your number as you rounded the corner on the well-used logging road. As you stop the quad to check the track of the buck, you saw how he darted across the road and was long gone into thick bush and cover.

I bumped into a friend last week while doing some grocery shopping, and naturally the conversation turned to hunting. A grin spread over his face as he told me about hunters he’s been observing since early October, as their crew did block layout and plantation health for a major forest company in the Barton Hills. This is off the Bear Lake main in the Kelowna area. He said the old guys slowly drive the roads looking for wildlife sign, then will park and walk to the good locations. The young guys gumboot up the roads in their fancy quads, or big 4x4’s, as the animals head for cover or just stand as they pass by. Animals are acutely attuned to their environment–it’s where they live. A whitetail buck needs only a couple acres to feed, bed and chase the girls around in the rut. When heavily hunted, ol’ ‘mossey horns’ will become nocturnal, much like that big ol’ bull moose.

A study done by a uni-

versity in Michigan on whitetail deer had a 250 acre area fenced off, with 20 radio collared bucks within.

After they become acclimatized to their environment and once hunting season began, five hunters were allowed to harvest a buck each. It took two days before five animals were harvested, and even longer to take the remaining animals.

GPS tracking showed when a hunter approached a marshy location with a beaver dam, a buck would actually crouch or lay down. It was well over a week before most were located. Animal behaviourist and avid hunter O t h m a r Vohringer, of Merritt, held a seminar two seasons ago about turkey and whitetail deer hunting, which some members of the Salmon Arm Fish and Game Club attended. He once lived in New York, with its parks full of deer. On opening day of deer season, he parked his vehicle and crawled into the underbrush with his bow. As dozens of other hunters parked their vehicles along the sidewalk and proceeded to begin hunting, he watched the deer as they would

take a sneak peek about the world around them, then go hide. Moral of the story? Do your homework. Research best locations in the local area. Have you seen deer or moose (including sign) there? Drive to a location you think is ideal, shut the vehicle or quad off, and walk in to it in the dark, then set up,

whether you are using a ground blind or stalking. Let those macho hunters roar by. You’ll save gas, see more game, and just may bag your buck or whitetail doe.

Doe season closes October 31 for region 3-26; while the spike fork bull moose season opens Nov. 1st. The rut for whitetail bucks is starting. While hunting whitetails, if you find scrapes, rubs, or does, set up and try a grunt tube–you’ll find there are a number of them on the market.

There are also bleat

by Hank Shelley calls that work on whitetails. Get a set of rattlin’ antlers too. If you have an old pair of natural ones, soak them in water before the hunt. There are excellent artificial antlers as well, but they’re expensive. Go online to find out more, including how to use them. With more hunters out there, go well equipped with layered clothing.

Have the proper tools to dress/pack/ enjoy a successful hunt while being s a f e .

Remember ol’ mossey horns didn’t get that old by being a dummy. He’s learned long ago where the best food is; how to avoid danger and noise from vehicles/quads; and the best travel routes from feed to bedding locations.

As Brian and I parted company, he was still smiling about the hunters who thought about bagging their buck up in the Barton Hills, only to have the bucks give a last tail twitch and whisker wiggle as they trotted off with their doe to a nice quiet retreat away from all that traffic.

Here and there in the Shuswap It seems that Canadian Tire is beginning to compete with the big boys for fair market share in hunting and fishing. Last week’s “Outsider Edition” flyer for hunting gear, clothing, and gear, illustrates just what’s out there for the hunter and angler. If you walk through the outdoor department of our local store, you’ll find a variety of articles, clothing, ammunition, and game calls for the hunter. Angling enthusiasts will also find a great selection of baits, hooks, line, and tackle. As hunters and anglers we want quality, good pricing, and selection.

But don’t forget the little guy. I’m referring to Westside Stores with their personal service, knowledge of product, and hands-on experience.

It seems bigger, better, faster, is how we are becoming in our small corner of the world. So kick back, relax for a moment in time. Count your blessings for where we live, and just sometimes bigger isn’t what it’s really stacked up to be!

Flu shot helps protect those around you

It is that time of year again to reflect on how you are preparing for influenza (flu) season. Are you armed with the protection you need against the flu?

According to the Public Health Agency of Canada, approximately 10-20 per cent of Canadians get the flu, and approximately 3,500 will die from the flu and its complications every year.

Influenza is a virus that is spread through droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes. An infected person can be contagious from 24 hours before the start of symptoms to five days after symptoms start. Children can spread the virus up to 21 days after symptoms start. Therefore, it can be difficult to know who may be infected with the virus at any given time. Common symptoms of the flu include a cough, fever, muscle aches, and lethargy. The flu can persist for one to two weeks before resolving and, in some cases, the flu may lead to complications such as sinus infection or pneumonia.

Getting the flu shot every fall before the onset and peak of flu season offers the best protection.

The annual vaccine protects against the most common strains of flu circulating that year. Getting a flu shot every year is recommended because the flu strains circulating every year can change, and protection decreases with time.

By getting your annual flu vaccine, you not only help protect yourself from the flu but you also

help protect others.

Seniors, infants under two years of age, and people with chronic illness are most at risk of serious illness or complications that can result from the flu.

Individuals at increased risk of complications from the flu and those who are in contact with them are eligible for the publicly funded (free) flu vaccine. To find out more about who is eligible for the publicly funded flu vaccine, please visit ImmunizeBC.ca, the Interior Health website, or contact your local health centre. If you are not eligible for the free vaccine, the flu vaccine may be purchased from your local pharmacy, travel clinic, or medical clinic for a small fee.

The first flu clinics in Salmon Arm are scheduled this week, October 30th and 31st at the Gathering Place (#350 30th St NE), 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. For a complete list of all flu clinics held in Salmon Arm and the surrounding area, please visit ImmunizeBC.ca or call the Salmon Arm Health Centre at 250-833-4101.

The benefits of ginger

We know that ginger has anti-nausea properties. It also helps with loss of appetite, motion sickness, nausea due to chemotherapy, flatulence, indigestion, asthma, coughs and bronchitis. One can also see overthe-counter preparations for natural anti-nausea products.

Well, ginger has even more surprising benefits. It has been used for over 2000 years in Chinese medicine, as well as in Ayurvedic medicine.

According to one study, it has a beneficial effect on colon inflammation, which may be a precursor to colon cancer. It also helps in reducing inflammation and pain. The juice of ginger as a home remedy is used to heal burns. Other research showed beneficial effects for ovarian cancer. For more information visit http://www.medicalnewstoday. com/articles/265990.php

It is used in cooking for helping with digestion in addition to being used for flavouring. And because I love ginger, I was very happy to know that it helps in assisting with blood glucose levels. According to another research, it may improve long-term sugar control in type 2 diabetes. For more info for this please visit http://www.diabetes. co.uk/natural-therapies/ginger.html.

Surely ginger is a spice to have in your kitchen. Personally, I prefer the organic powder.

Before starting to use on a regular basis, consult a health care provider as ginger can interfere with certain medications like blood thinners, aspirin and others and it also interacts with certain health conditions.

Vitamin D, diabetes

More and more research is being done each year on the beneficial effects of Vitamin D. A 2014 clinical trial published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition further supports the benefits of this important vitamin. In this study the researchers were investigating if optimal Vitamin D levels would help prevent overweight, pre-diabetic adults from developing diabetes. These researchers were following up on previous work that also showed low Vitamin D levels were associated with insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes.

Pre-diabetes is the condition when blood sugar levels are higher than normal; but not quite high enough to be diagnosed as fully diabetic. In discussions concerning diabetes you will also come across the term “insulin resistance,” which is a condition that occurs when the cells of your body do not normally respond to insulin. Insulin is a hormone in your system that acts as a messenger, telling the body’s cells to absorb sugar from the blood in order to produce energy. When the cells stop absorbing the blood sugars, the pancreas, in turn, creates even more insulin and the individual is often subsequently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

Going back to the study mentioned above, for anyone who is pre-diabetic, there are proactive steps one can take to prevent a diagnosis of diabetes. Lifestyle changes such as regularly exercising and improving diet are very important building blocks to reverse pre-diabetes and help normalize blood sugar levels. This study shows that in addition to these lifestyle changes, people should be supplementing with 1200-4000 IU of Vitamin D. Consuming higher levels of Vitamin D is a safe, beneficial, and cost-effective way to prevent many diseases.

We North Americans are deficient in Vitamin D due to lack of sun exposure and over-use of chemical sunscreens (which block the absorption of Vitamin D into our systems). Therefore, dietary supplementation is necessary to maintain homeostasis and avoid sickness. In our office, we always have Thorne brand Vitamin D3 drops in stock for sale to our patients and the public.

Creating jobs, opportunity

In British Columbia, we make just about everything. From forestry products, agrifoods, large industrial and high-tech components, manufacturing is driving our economy forward.

That is why I was proud to proclaim October 12-18 as Manufacturing Week in B.C. recognizing the contributions and bright future of this sector in our province.

In my role as Parliamentary Secretary to the BC Jobs Plan, I have been travelling across B.C. conducting a manufacturing tour at businesses large and small listening to them on how our government can help them grow.

I learned a lot, and saw first-hand how incredibly innovative and dynamic these companies are in our province making quality B.C.-made products from pita chips, to aluminum boats. They provide great opportunities for skilled workers, and open the door for students and apprentices to get a head start in their trade.

Right here in the Shuswap I have spent some time at several manufacturing firms that employ hundreds of our neighbours and friends. Firms like

ers Tanya Kraft, Cindy Kiefuk, and Kathleen Linnell; and Doug Murray, Board President of Shuswap Hospital Foundation. The money will go towards a CT scan upgrade and a Medi-Therm bed system.

Our government is committed to growing this sector province-wide and we want to see it continue to prosper. That is why our government highlighted manufacturing as a key strategic priority in the BC Jobs Plan 3-Year Progress Update last month.

SMOKING SOMETIMES CAUSES A FIRE Here’s a good reason to quit smoking. A Kelowna resident nearly set his apartment on fire last month. Firefighters were called to his apartment complex on Leon Avenue shortly before midnight where they found a small fire burning on a balcony of the 10th floor. Fortunately a passerby noticed the flickering flames and called 911. Crews managed to extinguish the fire before it spread into the residence. The cause of the fire? A cigarette thrown into a trash can.

I WOULD NOT ALLOW MY SON’S LIVER TO BE SUPPRESSED BECAUSE OF HIGH CHOLESTEROL Son-number-one called home from his posting with the air force in 1989 to say he had a medical examination and the doctor called him with the results and said: “You’re going to die! I’m sending you to a specialist right away.” He was told his cholesterol was very high, at 8. He knew mine was high, 11.7 at the time. The general practitioner sent him to a nutritionist who planned to suppress his liver. I wouldn’t allow it. So after obtaining family history, she allowed him to keep his high cholesterol.

When I brought my reading down to 7.2 with a prescription, my muscles ached and I was tired all the time. My liver was working overtime to bring my reading up to my normal which is between 11 and 12. I gave my doctor a letter saying I take 100 per cent responsibility for my health but I will not take cholesterol-lowering drugs. It was accepted and filed.

There has not been proof that anyone has died of high cholesterol.

DOCTOR FROM INDIA CAME TO SEE ME Ten years ago a doctor from India named Kosha moved to Salmon Arm with her engineer husband. She was unable to work as a doctor because of Canada’s laws. She came to see me when I owned this newspaper and asked what she could do. She was so shy! I took her into my office and asked what her interests were. She explained that she was into natural health, and so was I. She knew herbs and natural products, so I invited her to write a weekly column about whatever topic she chose on this subject. She would spend up to two days researching every topic/product she wrote about. Some people told her they saved all her columns. Below is a letter from Kosha Vaidya, whose weekly column still appears in this paper. You can write to her at koshahealing@gmail.com.

KOSHA VAIDYA EXPRESSES GRATITUDE IN THIS LETTER, FOR OPPORTUNITY TO WRITE Wow! I finished 10 years writing for Lakeshore News.

I started to write in August, 2004, when Sally Scales owned the paper.

On the tenth anniversary of writing for Lakeshore News, I would like to thank Sally Scales who recognized my potential and gave me the opportunity to write my column. I did not know that I could write when I started so I am very grateful to her for believing in me and giving me that extra push. As a result, I have written about 500 articles. Over the years the number of emails, thank you notes and cards have steadily increased and given me the feeling of a “special connection” within the community.

It means a lot to me and I thank you.

I would also like to thank past Lakeshore News editor Wendy Clay, current publisher Jeff Morrison, and editor Michelle Weisinger for their support. I would also like to thank a special friend, Marion Williams, for volunteering to help me with English, editing and giving me confidence.

This year, not only have I finished my tenth year with the Lakeshore News, but I have successfully graduated as a Clinical Herbalist at the physician level from the Dominion Herbal College in Vancouver. I hope to continue writing my column with this added knowledge.

To Sally Scales, thanks again. I am truly grateful you called me into your office ten years ago. The opportunity you gave me has brought about many positive changes.

Thanks to my readers as well.

With gratitude, Kosha Vaidya, MBBS, CH, CHT IN 40TH YEAR, SHUSWAP FILM SOCIETY HOLDS REEL WEEKEND FILM FESTIVAL Eight films will be shown at the Salmar Classic Theatre on Alexander Ave., beginning with Pride, from UK on Friday evening, Nov. 7 and ending Sunday evening, Nov. 9 with Attila Marcel from Quebec.

Thanks for supporting a venue for performing arts

On behalf of the Board of Directors and members of the Shuswap Society for the Arts and Culture, we wish to express our thanks for the support Mayor Cooper and the councillors have given us in the quest to establish a Performing Arts Centre for the area.

It was suggested that a portion of the City’s newly-purchased 2.2 ha. parcel of the former Jackson school property be a possible location for the new facility.

With this in mind, we will be spending the next six to eight months working with the Economic Development Society and other advisors to update our business plan to show how the centre will be run and be financially supported. It is our goal to approach the city next year to make a formal request to use the land to construct this much-needed centre.

DEMENTIA DEATH NOT FROM TRAUMA On Oct. 2 a 93-year-old man with dementia walked into the room of a man with dementia who was known to be violent and they had an altercation. When staff in Bastion Place found them, the older man was on the floor.

He was taken to the hospital and died five days later.

X-rays after admission and a CT scan after death showed no evidence of trauma so the coroner concluded the man died of natural causes.

MEMORIAL TEA FOR JIM SCALES “The ledgers are neatly balanced, the forms are correctly filed, and the cabin is securely shut. His work is done.”

That’s how the memorial card begins for Jim Scales, who died in Victoria on October 5 at age 81 after suffering with dementia. In Salmon Arm, a memorial tea will take place at 2 p.m. on Saturday, November 8 at First United Church.

BRAINS OF ELDERLY ARE SLOW BECAUSE THEY KNOW SO MUCH Older people do not decline mentally with age, it just takes them longer to recall facts because they have more information in their brains, scientists have discovered. Much like a computer struggles when the hard drive gets full, so humans also take longer to access information. It has been researched and proven by a scientific team in Germany, led

by Dr. Michael Ramscar of Tübingen University.

So there! That’s my excuse, and I am sticking to it!

IT’S TIME TO GET SNOW TIRES ON My snow tires are on, because the rule has changed. In BC, as of October 1, 2014, if you are driving through a mountain pass, you need to have snow tires on. The chain signs are gone.

The speed limit on most BC highways has been increased to the speed we’ve been driving anyway. The people who have been driving the speed limit, be it 90 or 100, are no longer holding up traffic. They either drive 120 where posted, or pull over and let the fast drivers go by. We thank you.

SON-NUMBER-TWO REACHES HALF CENTURY It’s a big event when someone to whom I gave birth has a birthday that ends with zero. And so I drove to Victoria on Friday, Oct. 24th for the celebration the next day, and returned on Monday, Oct. 27. As is typical for me, on both driving days, there wasn’t a drop of rain nor a flake of snow. It was great seeing my son’s friends again and now meeting their children who played with my grandchildren. Twenty-nine of us filled the house and spent many hours eating the appetizers each family brought which added to the host’s many appies. There was no birthday cake. Son-number-one brought fixings for a make-your-own ice-cream sundae. A good time was had by all. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

Correction

2014 RDSP refresher

The kids and cat haven’t done anything crazy this week, so we have to fall back on something a little less entertaining and a little more educational. I know, I know, but like I always say; you can’t just eat donuts, you need some veggies and fruit once in a while too; even if you are like me and try to justify an apple fritter as fruit.

So this week we are going to re-visit the registered disability savings plan (RDSP).

It is important to bring it up because despite having been around for a while now, it seems to be a vehicle that only a few people understand and utilize.

Like the Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP), the main incentive to save funds in this type of plan is the fact the government throws money into the pot for you and who doesn’t like “free” money! Well, I hesitate to say “free”, because we all know the government’s money comes from your wallet. If anything it is a creative way to get some of your own money back!

To be eligible for the

Trustees forum

RDSP you need to qualify for the Disability Tax Credit, have a social insurance number, be resident of Canada and be less than 60 years old. As you can see, the hardest requirement is qualifying for the Disability Tax Credit (DTC).

According to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), the DTC is available to people who have a “severe and prolonged impairment that markedly restricts their ability to perform one or more basic activities of living.” What does that mean? Well it has to be a fairly severe disability and it has to be certified by your

doctor through the completion of an application that is then submitted to CRA for review and approval/ denial. In most cases, your doctor will charge a small fee for completing the form for you, but it is worth it if it helps you qualify. If you are unsure if you will qualify for this tax credit then talk to your doctor and/or your accountant.

Assuming you are approved by CRA, the next most important thing you will want to know is how the Canada Disability Savings Grant (CDSG) works. Grants are available to beneficiaries up until the end of

Cedar Heights and Shuswap Estates Community Associations are hosting an all-candidates forum to give candidates Paul Demonok, Alan McClelland and Richard Norman the opportunity to present their ideas for the Regional District in general, and Area C in particular. The forum will take place at the Cedar Heights Community Hall, 2316 Lakeview Drive in Blind Bay, Saturday, November 1 at 7:00 p.m.

by Daron Mayes the calendar year they turn 49. Like the Canada Education Savings Grant for RESPs, the extent of the grant is determined by your family income.

If your 2013 “family income” is less than ~$87,100 then the CDSG is equal to 300% on your first $500 contribution and 200% on the next $1,000 for an annual maximum of $3,500.

This means that a $1,500 contribution in a given year will result in the government kicking in $3,500!

If your 2013 “family income” is over

~$87,100, then the government matches your contribution 100% to a maximum of $1,000 per year. So in this case a $1,000 contribution will result in $2,000 to start your plan as the government will also throw in $1,000.

As you can see, the government gives you a great incentive to start one of these plans!

There’s a lot more to know about these plans, but you’ll just have to wait until next week’s article to get the rest of the details because I’ve run out of space.

‘You Gotta Eat Here’ Film Crew in Town This past weekend the TV Food Network film crew was in town filming the Shuswap Pie Company for the popular program, ‘You Gotta Eat Here’ hosted by John Catucci. The restaurant was closed on Saturday and Sunday for the filming.

The timing coincides with the sale of the restaurant as Mike Jamont and Mary Jo Beirnes (above, left) have sold the Pie Company to their long-time manager, Tovah Shantz (above, right).

The network heard about the restaurant from recommendations of the Pie Companies’ customers. From the day it opened, November 26, 2009, the restaurant was a dynamic success.

“I think because it was unique,” says Mary Jo. “Everyone likes pies and we make a good product. I think the magic is the customers seeing into the kitchen and seeing the food being prepared.”

Mary Jo and Michael will be moving back to Vancouver to get back into the film industry. Mary Jo grew up in Ontario but moved to Vancouver after she finished university.

“I was hunting for a career that didn’t involve nylons.

I didn’t want to sit in an office. The film industry was creative and dynamic. It’s very project-based and doesn’t get boring.”

Mary Jo worked in the industry for 10 years as a location manager and worked on TV series such as Smallville, Dead Zone, Eureka as well as other projects. Then the couple left Vancouver.

“We left for a multitude of reasons, atrocious housing prices and a desire to do something different. In Ontario we opened a pie shop. A lot of the recipes were my family recipes.”

The pie shop was a huge success but they wanted to come back to BC, so they sold the pie shop to their manager and decided to find a place in the Okanagan. They had a friend in Salmon Arm who suggested they come here.

“Then we met Bill Laird and he was nice to do business with.”

Two years after they opened, Tovah started working at the Pie Company. She had finished school and done a year’s traveling in Australia. While she was gone she had various jobs.

“I had worked at a juice bar in Australia, lived at a sheep farm, picked fruit, did the normal travel experience thing,” says Tovah.

When Mary Jo heard Tovah was looking for a job she hired her without an interview.

“Tovah’s mom is a regular here - she has a good mom.”

As other employees moved on for various reasons, Tovah soon became the seasoned veteran and was given more responsibility and eventually became the manager.

At their 5-year mark in Shuswap Pie Company, Mary Jo and Mike had some decisions to make.

“We were presented with an opportunity to start a new project in Vancouver. When I spoke to Tovah saying I wanted to put it up for sale, I gave her the first crack and she jumped at the opportunity. I was relieved–I didn’t want to leave it to a random stranger,” says Mary Jo.

At 22 years old, Tovah is now the owner the Shuswap Pie Company that has close to 30 employees.

Eventually she will make some additions to the menu, but for now, everything will remain the same. In the meantime, she’s happy to have Mary Jo “a phone call away,” as well as counting on the support of local businesspeople who mentored Mary Jo and Mike including Bill Laird, Jeff Johnson at BDO, and Carol McGillivray at the Salmon Arm Economic Development Society.

New bistro and cappuccino bar opening soon The Guerini family who owns Andiamo Italian restaurant on Ross St. NE is now expanding their horizons.

Soon to open in December is the newly-acquired bistro & cappuccino bar that will be named Dolce (meaning sweet). Daughter Jessica, 25, will be passed the torch so to speak on the new family business and will be running the new establishment.

The bistro will be Italian in origin but with a young new look and flair and definitely a place for a great cup of coffee, along with other favourites like homemade iced teas, lattes, and smoothies.

Open early morning till late afternoon this bistro/coffeehouse will have in-house baked scones, muffins, and bagels for breakfast, as well as homemade focaccia sandwiches and other home-baked goodies for the afternoons.

Their pizzas will have homemade toppings like eggplant bocconcini (fresh mozza) and basil, which they promise will please the “foodie” in everyone.

Dolce (located on Alexander) is also getting a new facelift. A modern rustic look is planned with warm colours, cherry wood tables with lots of seating. Carlo’s famous tiramisu and bruschetta will also be on the menu, along with plenty of already made delicious sandwiches and soups that will be fast and ready to go for all those with a limited time for lunch.

All-candidates forum There will be an all-candidates forum on Sunday, November 2 from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort for Salmon Arm council.

There are four running for Mayor of Salmon Arm: Nancy Cooper, Ian Wickett, Marty Bootsma, and Debbie Cannon.

Fifteen people are running for six Salmon Arm Council positions: Diana Altschul, Keith Chancellor, Chad Eliason, Louise Wallace Richmond, Kevin Flynn, Ivan Idzan, Ruth Thomas, Wayne Masters, Jay Cadeau, Tom Birch, Alan Harrison, Tim Lavery, Jim Kimmerly, Ken Jamison, and Tim Giandomenico.

Four are running for two Salmon Arm school trustee positions: Michel Saab, Marcel Bedard, Dale Townsend, and Bobbi Johnson. These candidates are not part of the all-candidates’ forum and will be attending a separate forum on Monday, November 3, 7:00 p.m. at the District Education Centre (DEC), 2960 Okanagan Ave E. In the Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD): three are running for Area ‘C’(South Shuswap) Director: Paul Demenok, Alan McClelland, Richard Norman.

For Area ‘D’ (Falkland, Silver Creek, Ranchero, Deep Creek, Gardom Lake) Director: Rene Talbot, Kelly Stalker.

For Area ‘E’/(rural Sicamous, Swansea Point, Malakwa) Director: Rhona Martin, Dan Letendre.

Congratulations to: Nick Spottock for completion of his apprenticeship and receiving his Red Seal certification in automotive repair. Nick works at Center Point Automotive.

Al and Mary Bianco who recently celebrated their 60th anniversary. Al was a high school PE teacher for many years as well as a long-time coach of the Jewels basketball team, and Mary was also a teacher, mostly substituting. They raised their five daughters in Salmon Arm. Some European marketing practices Veering away a little from the usual practice of writing on local business news, I thought to mention some of the different marketing and tourism ideas I saw while I was

in Poland, Austria, and the Czech Republic.

In Krakow and Prague the main squares in the older part of the city (plus the famous pedestrian Charles Bridge in Prague) seem permanently busy with tourists. It’s not simply the ‘busyness’ that gives these places a vibrant atmosphere but the variety of artists, musicians and small-business entrepreneurs who are there day after day.

Segways are big business. You don’t need to sign a waiver or wear a helmet, you can even try it free of charge.

If you decide to spend some time on it, you pay the owner for using the Segway PT (a two-wheeled, self-balancing battery-powered electric vehicle).

Others make money by simply dressing up in something unusual and putting a basket in front that passers-by can throw money into. I’ve seen robots, angels with parrots, a headless man, a grim reaper, and a clown-faced adult/baby in a carriage to name a few.

Some of these tourism businesses have an enviable low overhead such as the bubble makers. This was a popular one at the main squares and even at the subway entrance near Vienna’s famous Prater amusement park. With sticks, ropes, and a bucket of soapy water, they make big bubbles that make the children laugh and play so grateful parents put money into their baskets.

And there were a few unusual businesses. A Thai massage spa in Prague put their dead-skin cell eating fish in a tank right in front of their window so smiling customers could do their advertising for them.

And who knew that collecting chocolate wrappers and boxes (below) could one day turn into a lucrative business?

MP Mayes present during Ottawa crisis

My Wednesday routine started with my arrival at my Parliament Hill office at 6:30 a.m. and then off to the midweek Parliamentary Hill Prayer Breakfast at 7:15, followed by an 8:15 B.C. Caucus meeting, then off to National Caucus at 9:30.

After we finished the usual robust singing of “O Canada,” our caucus settled to be briefed by our House Leader. Soon after this, the Prime Minister began his review of domestic and international events. Just into his presentation there was a large bang, then another. The sounds were just coming from the other side of the wall and I was within six feet of the back of the room. Not until the second and third bang did we all stand up.

The MPs’ first response was to get the Prime Minister out, and then our next reaction was to head for an exit; but not knowing what was in the hall on the other side of the door, I stopped and thought, no, what I needed to do was find a way out of here. I looked at a window about seven feet up. It had a ledge. I contemplated breaking the window and exiting. I heard people saying, “Get in the caucus room; we’re going to lock the doors.” Unsure of my fate, I decided I would face the unknown with my colleagues

by Colin Mayes rather than abandon them and be an only survivor.

In the room MPs, who were previously with the police or Canadian Forces, were organizing the room. They shouted, “Stay away from the doors, barricade the doors!” Some of my colleagues took the small flag poles from the podium to use as weapons. The members with the poles bravely guarded the doors. The rapid fire sounded like an automatic weapon (later we found out what we heard were guns being fired by the police officers). Then everything was silent. We were overcome with the thought that the assailant(s) had automatic weapons and had killed those that were protecting us. We expected the doors to be tested by a barrage of bullets. I prayed for the Prime Minister, my wife and my family. I actually was surprised as to how calm the room was. I was ready to die and frankly, I thought that was going to be the outcome.

The silence seemed to last forever, but soon after the shots ended there was a bang against the hall door. We all gave a sigh of relief when we heard a voice say “it’s the RCMP.” The Prime Minister was ushered out but caucus and staff were left in the room during a lockdown for nine hours. Being in one room for that length of time with my colleagues gave us plenty of time to talk. And I have to confess, I believe this time together was good therapy for us.

My reflections after this event might seem strange, but I recapped my minutes of anxiety and fear and then my thoughts turned to my father who served with the Canadian Scottish Regiment in the liberation of Holland during WWII. He endured this anxiety and fear for months, for the cause of freedom.

My thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of Corporal Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Vincent. I was ready to fight as were my brave colleagues in the room, but my appreciation for those that have protected us in the past and today is cherished even to a greater extent by this MP after the event of October 22, 2014.

SPORTS & LEISURE Tips battle against Penticton

Braidy Parkes (#3) makes a tackle during the Pee Wee Colts game on Sunday, Oct 26 in Kelowna. The Colts defeated the Kelowna Riders 39 to 6. The Colts’ next home game is Sunday, November 2, at the Little

Mountain Sports Complex. Kickoff happens at 11:00 a.m. and everyone is welcome to come out and cheer the Colts on in their first playoff game. Photo by Tasha Mazzotta.

Al

By James Thompson Saturday, October 25th brought the Penticton Junior Vees to Salmon Arm to play the undefeated Bantam tier 2 Silvertips in what would prove to be a battle of the goaltenders.

The Scotiabank ‘Tips went after Penticton early in this match and got out to a three-nothing lead in just under ten minutes, but at the end of the period the score sat at 4-4. The second period transitioned a little and the score clock only changed by one goal to finish the second frame at 5-4 in Penticton’s favour. The third period began with some speed and hitting and the Tips were rewarded with a tying goal six and half minutes in. Temperatures rose as did the energy level and a Silver Tips goal at 10:18 put the home boys ahead 6-5. The junior Vees are in second place for a reason, and they tied up the game with 5:43 remaining. The Tier 2 Silvertips haven’t given up on a game yet this season and they weren’t going

to let that change as some grinding and passing got the tips the go ahead point they were looking for with 3:49 left. The final score in this nailbiter stayed at 7-6 with scoring coming from Aaron Plessis and Michael Kormany with two goals each, single goals from Tyler Chartier and Trent Thompson and the game winner from Brayden Haskell all made possible by the defensive core including Koltin Dodge between the pipes.

Peewee Silvertips beat Vernon

By Peter Kociuba The Podollan Inn Peewee Tier 2 Silvertips extended a not-so-warm welcome to Vernon at the Shaw Centre on Sunday, defeating the visitors by a score of 7-6.

Colby Feist of the Tips opened the scoring and went on to net a natural hat trick, scoring all 3 goals in the first 6 minutes of the game. The first was a wrap-around beauty flying into the zone on a 2-on-1 with teammate Ty Sanford, the second a rebound of a Zander Stewart rifle shot, and the third a backhand along the ice after a scramble in front. Leyton Boyd would pop a high floater past the Vernon netminder with 3 minutes left in the first, but not before Vernon clawed back with a pair of their own - the Tips heading into the first intermission up by two. Ty Bailey out-waited the Vernon goaltender early in the second, roofing the puck after the rebound from a Blake McBeth rocket found its way to his stick. Vernon refused to quit and knotted it at five a few minutes later, but Feist’s fourth of the afternoon would put Salmon Arm up by one heading into the third. The teams seemed destined for overtime when Vernon tied it up with 6 minutes left in the game, but Malcolm Petty knocked in a rebound on the power play to seal the victory for the Silvertips.

Vernon pressed hard to tie it up when they pulled their goalie with a minute left in the game, but to no avail - 7-6 home team final.

“Everyone put out a second effort today,” says defenseman Blake McBeth, who had an exceptional game for the Silvertips. “We passed the puck and really worked as a team.”

The Tips host their home tournament this weekend.

Samurais net big win over Vernon

By Peter Kociuba The Atom Rec Leko Precast Samurai’s faced off against Vernon on Sunday, coming out on the high side of an 8-2 contest.

Joel DeHoog scored just two minutes into the game, his first of 3 for the evening. Joseph Jones scored a pair of his own, his first of the game putting the Samurais up by 2 with less than 5 minutes played in the first. Gabriel Niewenhuizen put the Samurais up by 3 early in the second before Vernon scored one of their own in an attempt to set up the comeback. Taylor Sanford quashed any thought of that however, popping in a rebound just 6 minutes later to spot Salmon Arm a 3 goal lead heading into the third period.

It took just 10 seconds for Sebastien Sayers to get a goal of his own in the final frame, and DeHoog and Jones would finish their hat trick and pair respectively to seal the victory for the Samurais.

Salmon Arm travels to Lumby for a road tilt on Sunday.

Email condolences and share memories through Ron’s obituary at www.fischersfuneralservices.com

Rosalie Spargo The family of Rosalie Spargo is sorry to say that she left us on Friday, October 24, 2014 in Salmon Arm. Rosalie’s children - Adrian Spargo (Linda Simmons) and Caroline Grover (Barry) - were with her. Mom left as she lived, full of laughter, jokes and stories.

Rosalie was born in Cornwall, UK and immigrated to Ontario with husband Sidney in 1957. In addition to raising two happy children, Rosalie had an interesting and varied career, often with senior government offices and retiring after developing a successful consulting practice with her husband and son. Throughout her life she made many friends through work, aquacise and service clubs, which she valued very much. Her retirement years were in Salmon Arm, and she never wanted to be any other place. Probus Club friends and also neighbours became a circle of good friends, good times and lately a support network of help. This was to be her last home. Piccadilly Terrace staff and also residents became extended family for the last five years, and close friends were made.

Email condolences may be sent to Don’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

The family is very grateful to the Palliative ward staff of Shuswap Lake General Hospital for their care and interest in her well-being.

Funeral arrangements in care of Bower’s Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.

Dr. Lourens and Dr. Currie are to be commended for prolonging her health and extending her life.

Capricorn, you want to play outside of the rules this week. You normally like to follow a relatively traditional course, so this catches others off guard.

Jeff!

AQUARIUS

You don’t always have the patience to stick with the same routine, Aquarius. That means others cannot expect you to conform to their whims if they want you as a friend.

From the gang at Lakeshore News NOV. 2

PISCES

Pisces, you may need to sacrifice some security for a chance to have a memorable experience. Do something out of the ordinary.

ARIES

Aries, you want more than you can acquire this week and your desires may lead you astray. It is important to exercise self-restraint, even if you get a thrill from living on the edge.

TAURUS

Taurus, make a concerted effort to improve your focus in the weeks ahead. There is much to lose if you cannot tackle the tasks at hand, particularly at the workplace.

GEMINI

Gemini, it’s unlike you to slow down, so don’t be surprised when friends start looking at you curiously after you take your foot off the gas.

Your free spirited nature will soon return.

CANCER

Cancer, find a routine that works for you and then stick with it. There is no need to reinvent the wheel, and when actions become automatic, you can focus on other things.

LEO

A need for attention could get the better of you, Leo. A little humility goes a long way and can alter others’ perceptions of you. You may end up being seen in a more positive light.

VIRGO

Virgo, you can differentiate between right and wrong, but your judgement might be off this week.

Rely on your intuition, but don’t make any big decisions without first thinking carefully.

LIBRA

Libra, it may seem like you are being led astray by one thing after another, when all you want is to focus on one task at a time. Find a way to block out any and all distractions.

Scorpio, work on a creative project with a sweetheart or friend early in the week. Ideas will flow easily and your imaginations will soar together. It is a productive pairing.

SAGITTARIUS

This is not your week to mix love and money, Sagittarius. In fact, keep the two as separate as possible, and exercise caution before lending anyone money.
