Train your dog to walk nicely on a leash

By Emily Corrie Does your dog drag you around the neighbourhood from tree to fire hydrant on your daily walks? Does your arm ache from keeping him restrained? Walking with your dog does not have to be a hassle. With a little training, you can have your pooch walking calmly next to you wherever you go—and your veterinarian will thank you too!

Remember that dogs are not born with the innate knowledge of how to walk on a leash—we must teach them. It is not necessary to use any special equipment other than a regular leather or nylon collar and lead.

Most importantly, ditch that retractable leash: it teaches your dog to ignore boundaries and only frustrates fellow pedestrians when it becomes tangled around their legs (trust me).

Remember, too, that training only works when it is consistent. While you train your dog to walk nicely on a leash, you will have to treat every walk as a training session. This means you will need to find alternative ways of exercising your dog because in the beginning you will have to keep his leash training sessions short.

I trained my dog to walk nicely on a leash using some of the late Dr. Sophia Yin’s methods (check out her website at drsophiayin. com). The first thing your dog will be required to learn is how to “say please by sitting.” This means that the dog only ever gets what it wants (a treat, to be pet, to go out the door, etc) by looking at you and politely sitting. Practice teaching your dog to focus his attention on you by showing him a treat and waiting for him to sit. As soon as he sits, give him the treat. Build up his attention span by continuing to supply him with treats while he sits looking at you and gradually make the time frame between treats longer. Make sure that his eyes are on your eyes; not on the hand holding the treat. Making a clucking noise can help get his attention to your face. Practice this in various locations in your home until he clearly understands.

On the leash, teach your dog that the best place to be is by your side. Have very clear and consistent boundaries. If your dog gets quick and gets ahead of you, stop immediately in your tracks.

The dog will hit the lead and most likely turn to see what is going on. Wait for him to return to you

Trail Dusters 4H club gets busy

By Raquel Marchiel, club reporter The Salmon Valley Trail Dusters 4-H club is in full swing. With meetings every few weeks or so, goats being born, and horse riding about to begin, this club is getting busy! On March 14th, we did our Communications public speaking day. Krista Gerstmar won 1st place in the Seniors’ category and Landen LaTosky placed second. In the Juniors’ categeory, Shelby LaTosky took first and Jenna Tingstad was second.

A new project is in the group: leatherwork! The group now focusses on horses, goats, sheep, Cloverbuds, and leatherwork. The tack sale at Buckerfields was well attended, and our club was there fundraising by selling hotdogs and goodies made by the members. We thank the public for their support!

We will also be fundraising with a silent auction at Piccadilly Mall on Saturday, May 9th. Come check out the tables. Our next club get together is set for the end of April.

and “say please by sitting” (you might need to make that clucking noise to get his attention).

Reward him, then continue on your walk.

Consistency is key. Do not ever allow him to pull or exit the boundary that you set. You will find in the beginning that you can only ever walk a couple of steps at a time. But he will soon learn that walking is pretty boring when he pulls because he is constantly having to stop and sit. By using this method, we are never required to use force or pain (such as with a choke chain) and walking becomes fun and understandable to the dog.

Keep in mind that your dog’s natural walking pace is probably quicker than you think: walk briskly so he has to trot to keep up. Walking quicker will be more fun for your dog and will make it less likely that he will stop to investigate every tree, lamp post, mail box, and fire hydrant along the way. Have fun!

Film showing marks Earth Day

Climate change is being called the greatest threat humankind has ever faced. The International Energy Agency warns that if the world is to avoid catastrophic climate change, decisive actions to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions must be in place by 2017.

Recent research shows that climate change is progressing much faster than originally predicted.

It is vital that when government leaders meet in Paris in December, they should finalize a global climate treaty that contains strong targets and timetables for reducing carbon emissions.

Year after year, governments have postponed committing to a climate treaty. This year, 2015, they have promised to act. But will the treaty be strong enough to avert runaway catastrophic climate change?

Last September, 400,000 people in New York, and thousands of others worldwide, took to the streets calling on their governments to take action on climate change. But the United Nations climate talks in Lima, Peru last November, again went nowhere.

Nongovernmental organizations have given Earth Day 2015 the theme: ‘It’s Our Turn to Lead’, recognizing that if progress is to happen, the people must lead the way.

Canada’s record on climate change is one of the worst globally. The coming federal election provides an opportunity for Canadians to influence our

government to sign a strong climate treaty. But we will succeed only if many people are concerned enough to take action.

Shuswap Environmental Action Society President Jim Cooperman says that while action at the national and international levels is vital, it is also important to press regional and local governments to develop adaptation measures to help communities cope with the escalating impacts of global warming: drought, floods, fires, and extreme weather events.”

Dr. Warren Bell will introduce and animate the Earth Day program, which will feature four short films showing why we need to be extremely concerned about what is happening to the Earth’s climate, and also, what we can do about it. Program organizers hope that the films and the group discussion afterward will inform and empower people to take action.

The program will take place at First United Church, Salmon Arm, Wednesday, April 22, at 7 pm, and is sponsored by the Salmon Arm Ecumenical KAIROS Committee, with support from the Shuswap Environmental Action Society (SEAS), Wetlands Alliance: the Ecological Response (WA:TER), and Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE). This is a free public program; all interested persons welcome. For more information, contact Anne Morris at 250-833-5773.

Protecting our children

Our Government is committed to making our streets and communities safe by cracking down on predators that abuse and exploit children.

With the recent introduction of Bill C-26, our Government is proposing nine new key measures to better protect our children from a range of sexual offences, including child pornography, while ensuring that offenders receive prison sentences that better reflect the serious nature of these offences.

Every day in Canada, children are the victims of sexual abuse. Child sexual abuse causes unimaginable trauma to the lives of children, and often carries profound effects into adulthood and throughout an individual’s life.

In Canada, over 3,900 sexual violations against children were reported to police in 2012- an increase of 6% from 2010. Child sexual exploitation is unacceptable and your Government is doing more to deter and punish offenders who exploit and harm children.

This bill will require those convicted of contact child sexual offences against multiple children to serve their sentences consecutively (one after another ) and this would also apply to those convicted of child pornography offences.

The Bill will increase maximum and minimum prison sentences for certain child sexual offences and increase penalties for those who violate conditions of supervision orders. The Bill will also ensure that a crime committed while on house

by Colin Mayes arrest, parole, statutory release or unescorted temporary absence, is an aggravating factor at sentencing of the offender.

The Bill will ensure spousal testimony is available in child pornography cases and require registered sex offenders to report details regarding travel abroad. This reform would also allow officials responsible for the National Sex Offender Registry and the Canada Border Services Agency to share information regarding certain registered sex offenders. This bill would also establish a publicly accessible database of high-risk child sex offenders who have been subject of public notification in other jurisdictions to increase the safety of our communities.

In previous reforms, our Government has increased the age of sexual consent from 14 to 16, established mandatory reporting of child pornography by internet service providers, strengthened the sex offender registry and strengthened the sentencing and monitoring of dangerous offenders with mandatory sentences for seven existing offences of a sexual nature.

It makes me sad that this type of abuse even exists in our Canadian society, but you can be comforted to know that your Government is committed to the protection of the most vulnerable and precious members of our society – our children.

See you soon, Andrea

I see a lot of infants in my practice and while while providing a first adjustment to a newborn there is a common issue that I find in a large percentage of the babies I check. I thought this week I would explain what that issue is and how parents can watch for it in their new bundles of joy. During my initial assessment and interview with new Moms and Dads, I explain the many physical signs I assess in their baby. I also use this opportunity to teach them some obvi-

A Note on Posture A stable frame is known to be the most important part of any project, whether it be a sky scraper, vehicle, or playing card castle. This is just as important in our bodies. Our bodies are extremely detailed machines that propel us through motion using three classes of levers to create a desired action.

Each muscle is situated in the body for a specific set of actions allowing us a variety of motions as well as combining muscle action to provide precise movements. However if the muscle is not properly situated, it can be difficult to achieve the motion, leaving the task at hand more strenuous as well as decreasing strength and endurance. In a world with many different body styles adapting too many different occupations and lifestyles, it can be hard to accommodate your body for what is required of it. That’s where our posture (stable frame) comes in. If we can be strong in our frame, tasks that require us to be in compromising positions can be easier and more efficient while also preventing body aches and pains on a regular basis. Alongside promoting better efficiency in the muscles, better posture can take strain off of joints and can help to decrease risks of arthritis from uneven wear and tear on the joints. But let’s be realistic, it’s not always just bringing your shoulders back, postural advice is different for every person. It is important to have a postural assessment to tailor a pro-active postural plan to help you be better, be stronger, and be closer to a pain free day! Invest in your body, at Chadalin Medi-Spa.

ous signs to watch for at home to determine if their baby is subluxated or has nerve interference.

In addition to sustained head and neck rotation or preferred body postures, a common finding is when family members notice their baby seems to have a very strong neck. A classic presentation of a neck problem is when a brand new infant is laying face down during “tummy time” and they are lifting their head completely up off the blanket. If parents and friends don’t know what to look for, they often just think baby is “really a strong little fella” to be able to lift his head so soon!

In fact, what is happening is the baby usually has tension (subluxation) in the spine and nervous system that is causing the neck to extend. The next thing parents are

Happy Administrative Professional’s Day!

usually surprised to hear me predict is that these babies are not great sleepers. This happens because when they are laid down on their back to sleep they often wake up or become fussy and cry (or scream). If they are picked up and held they will often settle and fall back asleep.

This becomes very challenging for Moms and Dads, as by the time they see me they are exhausted from holding baby upright all night. Sleep is disrupted in these little ones because their heads are so large compared to their neck and upper back.

Laying on their back will naturally flex the neck forward. If there is subluxation (tension) in the neck causing it to extend, this flexed position causes discomfort, pain, continuous crying and no sleep (until they are picked up and the stress on their necks is

subsequently relieved).

People often mistake this as a “spoiled child” that only wants to be held. This is not so. They want to be held because laying on their back hurts.

The good news is I can safely and gently correct these spinal problems by doing cranio-sacral treatment and a few very light chiropractic adjustments using an instrument called an Integrator.

Chiropractic for babies is so gentle that they often won’t wake up during their adjustments. I use about the same amount of pressure during the adjustments as you would to test the ripeness of a tomato.

If you are new parents and someone has commented on how

strong your baby’s neck is, he/she should be checked by a pediatric chiropractor.

Newborns are meant to be “floppy.” Holding their heads up and off the blanket or having them pull back in your arms and look at you is an indication that they may have spinal tension and are subluxated. A clear spine and nervous system will give them the right tools to grow and develop into a healthy, happy child.

FROM EDEN CLINICAL COUNSELLING

Calendula

I love pot marigold flowers, as they have so much to offer. Pot marigolds are also known as calendula, and are well-known as one of the ornamental flowers. They bloom from spring to first frost in the fall.

The golden-orange or yellow flowers of calendula are rich in flavonoids and carotene and have been used for their health benefits since ancient times. Historically, these flowers were considered beneficial for reducing inflammation, healing wounds, and as an antiseptic. Externally, marigold oil or cream was used for treating various skin diseases such as dry skin, skin ulceration, eczema and psoriasis. Orally, the soothing effects of calendula have been beneficial for stomach ulcers and irritations. Traditionally, a sterile calendula tea was topically applied in cases of conjunctivitis.

Some scientific studies like experiments on rats and other animals suggest that Calendula cream has wound-healing and anti-inflammatory effects. Test tube studies have found antiviral activity for calendula. The constituents responsible for these actions have not been deter-

mined, however, but herbalists include this herb in their first aid kit.

In Germany, creams made with the calendula flower are an important component in the medicine cabinet, and are used for everything from children’s scrapes to eczema, burns, and poorly-healing wounds.

Calendula cream is also used to soothe hemorrhoids and varicose veins. Lastly, for people who like natural remedies to treat sunburn, calendula oil is also an option. There are various ways of making calendula products at home; however, one simple way is to store the petals in a small bottle with olive oil for ten day or so in cool dark place, and shake the bottle every other day.

Occasional allergic reactions have been known to occur with the use of calendula, especially with people who are allergic to ragweed or other herbs of the Asteraceae and Compositae families. For those of who do not garden, calendula products are available in natural health sections of various stores in our community.

Sitting in the presence of emotional pain is something many of us struggle with. We ignore and dismiss feelings, and do nearly everything to escape them. We tell our children “you’re OK,� and to “suck it up.� We blankly check our phones multiple times a day and flake out in front of the TV. We eat more and less healthy food when under stress, rather than mindfully accepting our present state. At the far end of the spectrum, we may engage in self-injurious behaviours or become engulfed by addiction.

However, the catch is that in the long run these behaviours create an increase in emotional distress. By ignoring the flames, the fire grows bigger.

The ability to sit with emotion begins young.

Having an attuned and attentive caregiver who validates and accepts our full range of emotion while responding sensitively can support the ability for our whole brain to learn to self-regulate. Although we all become overwhelmed at times, with self-regulation skills we are likely to reach for healthy coping methods.

While in session, clients often apologize for crying or attempt to avoid a particular emotion by discussing benign events, or hurry an emotional state by stating how they should not feel such a way. We learn together to sit with the pain, using a few steps: Observing what is happening in the body, validating the present state, and focusing on the present. Through this process, the brain eventually learns ways of self-regulating and mindful, healthy ways of coping with emotional pain. I encourage you to at some point in your week, sit quietly with yourself.

LAST WEEK I WROTE ABOUT THERESA CAPUTO The psychic medium is coming to Kelowna on June 9.

Tickets were to go on sale April 10 and cost between $39.75 and $89.75. I put the information on Facebook but the prices were deleted. A local woman phoned me on the afternoon of April 10 and said when she enquired, the prices ranged from $115 to $148 and only 20 were left. The error on the initial website posting must have been corrected.

This is how to order tickets for a popular entertainer or sporting event online: do it one minute after midnight or the time they are released. Sometimes they sell out in 10 minutes. Scalpers will be ready, that’s for sure! They will be standing outside Prospera Place on June 9, offering to sell you a ticket for an arm and a leg.

BETTER THAN A GARAGE SALE! That’s how Shuswap SPCA is advertising its spring fundraising event on May 9. It will be at Downtown SASCU’s parking lot across from the old CPR station, and not at the SPCA in the industrial park as in the past. I delivered a carload of stuff for the garage sale and was amazed at the quality and quantity of items that had been donated so far. If you are downsizing and have stuff to donate, call 778-489-5030 and the event co-ordinator will meet you at the vacant sales room of the former Honda building.

(Thanks, Bill Laird!)

The sale will be from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on May 9 and will have fun, treasures, food, plants, and animals. You can rent your own table. You may fall in love with a furry creature from the SPCA and take home more than you expected.

COLLEGE STUDENTS LIVE WITH SENIORS A nursing home in the Netherlands allows college students to live rent-free alongside the elderly residents under two conditions: be a good neighbour and do not be a nuisance to the seniors. The students are required to do a variety of activities with the older residents, including watching sports, celebrating birthdays and offering companionship when seniors fall ill. The program is aimed at warding off the negative effects of aging. (From PBS Newshour) BRING A SMALL PET TO NEW RETIREMENT RESIDENCE Andover Terrace Retirement Resort in Salmon Arm will have ground level apartments where pets are welcome. A show suite will be ready for touring in May, and the resort is scheduled to open in early July. Until then, visit Andover’s information suite in Centenoka, across from the dollar store. It is open from 12 to 5 every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Call toll-free weekdays: 1-844-263-0002.

VOLUNTEERING WITH SENIORS CAN GIVE A GOOD REFERENCE FOR A JOB Do you have a bit of time to spend with seniors? Mt. Ida Mews would welcome your help with programs, or with gardening, or a one-on-one visit with a senior. An hour or two a week would be welcomed, and the schedule is flexible because the 72-person facility is open seven days a week, 24 hours a day. Ideally, you would be a student in at least Grade 11 or in college, or be an adult or senior. Pick up an application form at the Mews, and return it when filled.

Mt. Ida Mews is located next to Shuswap Day Care. You could be a parent who could volunteer while waiting for your child. Mt. Ida Mews is located near Seniors’ Fifth Avenue Activity Centre, so you could be a senior who might give an hour or two a week after an activity at the centre.

INSITE HAS TWO FACILITIES FOR SENIORS Mt. Ida Mews is owned by inSite Housing and Interior Health Authority. The two-story facility was opened in 2013 and provides complex care services for seniors under contract to Interior Health. It is staffed by healthcare staff nurse’s aides 24/7. Residents live in private rooms in one of the three “neighbourhoods.” If you go to www.insiteseniorcare.com you will see pictures of the new facility. inSite also owns Lakeside Retirement Residence on the foreshore in Salmon Arm. Lakeside Manor is an independent living retirement community that provides hospitality services including meals, housekeeping and activities for residents in all 53 private suites. The four-storey building will eventually be twinned on the empty lot next door.

InSite has a total of seven properties providing a wide range of hospitality and health care services for seniors, including properties in Lumby and Kelowna that offer a similar complement of services to Mount Ida Mews.

HEALTH AUTHORITIES FILL BEDS QUICKLY Throughout the province, if a resident in a complex care facility dies, another person will be admitted to the room within 24 to 48 hours. Every health authority does the placing. Interior health has many people on the waiting list. The amount residents pay per month will depend on their income as noted on their tax return. IHA can provide a subsidy if one is needed.

ENDERBY LIONS HAVE BIGGEST GARAGE SALE BETWEEN ABBOTSFORD AND CALGARY All winter the Enderby Lions members have been collecting garage sale items under cover in the gazebo at Riverside Park. Donations came from as far away as Chase, Salmon Arm, Sicamous and Armstrong. This will be their largest garage sale since they started about 2002.

All money raised goes back into the community.

The Lions moved 150 truckloads into the curling rink, and will move about 100 more as merchandise is sold.

The arena is open for the sale seven days a week, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. most days, to 9 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The final sale day is Sunday, May 3.

PRICE OF FLOWERS WAS HIGHER THAN QUOTED Several people from Salmon Arm reported that when they ordered flowers to be delivered from a company that advertised on the internet, the receipt on their charge card bill that came in the mail was higher than was quoted on the phone. One person phoned to complain, and was told the order was in American dollars. Many of these companies are in California.

DID YOU GIVE BIRTH ON MARCH 19, 1981 AT AGE 16?

Did you deliver a baby boy in Prince George on March 19, 1981 when you were 16? Before you gave him up for adoption, you wrote a note to him which was given to him when he turned 18. Todd Semko is working in Alberta now. He posted his birth mother’s note on Facebook along with a letter to her that ends with: “I would like to find my birth mother. I want to say thank you for putting me up for adoption. I ended up in a wonderful home, with two very loving parents.”

A 65-YEAR OLD WOMAN IS EXPECTING FOUR BABIES A German teacher who is about to retire is preparing to give birth at age 65. Her 13 kids aged nine to 44 were from five fathers. Her youngest wanted a younger sibling. It took many attempts to become pregnant from

donor eggs that were fertilized and implanted at a clinic outside Germany. The woman finally became pregnant… with quadruplets. She is being criticized, but she asks how does one have to behave at 65?

BISHOP SPONG SAYS THE FIRST BIBLE WAS AN EDITOR’S NIGHTMARE Bishop Spong, an Episcopalian bishop in the U.S., wrote in his weekly e-newsletter that the original Greek New Testament was written with no punctuation, no paragraphs, no capital letters and not even spaces between the words. He said all of those things were imposed on the texts by people living in a much later time.

FAST FOOD JOINT IS PAYING FOR A WEDDING Burger King is paying the expenses and providing gifts for the wedding of an Illinois couple with an interesting connection to the fast food restaurant chain. Joel Burger and Ashley King accepted the company’s proposal. The State Journal-Register reports that the couple announced their engagement this spring with a photo next to the sign at a local Burger King restaurant. Although a woman’s name usually comes first in an engagement announcement, they decided to flip their names. A Burger King spokesman says the company felt an overwhelming urge to help the happy couple celebrate their upcoming marriage. The Burger-King nuptials will be held July 17.

WHY DON’T YOUR CHILDREN CALL YOU? An old man took his phone to the repair shop. The technician said there was nothing wrong with his phone.

With tears in his eyes, the old man said: “Then why don’t my children ever call me?”

I find these days, children are very busy and many prefer to communicate by texting with a cell phone on which they flip, flip, flip with a finger. Phone the kids yourself, grandma and grandpa. That’s what I do.

WRITING ABOUT CHEMTRAILS WIPED OUT MY COLUMN Since 1997 I have been writing about high-flying planes that leave plumes of chemical-laden contrails that spread and fill the sky. YouTube has thousands of pictures of them. My concern was that they may be causing an increase in respiratory problems and dementia. Last week someone sent me an interesting website to check: http://stateofthenation2012.com/?p=10890.

A chemtrail pilot secretly gave a letter about the secret operation to a friend who gave it to a friend who read it on the website. It is printed as well. He did it last fall because in February, 2015, colourless chemtrails would be sprayed over one state as a test. It had the code name for the chemtrail operation. I googled it and copied some information into this column when it was 2/3 written.

THE ENTIRE COLUMN DISAPPEARED! Every word was gone! I began to sweat. After half an hour I decided to try retrieving it. Microsoft Word always asks if I want to save changes before I close a file. I said I didn’t want to save changes. When I opened the file, my column was there! Thank goodness! Now I do not dare use the code name because my computer might be bugged. 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.

To bee or not to bee…

The Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society (LASS) is hosting the 2nd Annual LASS Team Spelling Bee Fundraiser this spring.

See you there!

Oh no! What have I started? A few weeks ago I wrote an article explaining how many people (in particular seniors) are incorrectly paying the full amount of medical premiums. As you may recall, if your income is low enough, then you should qualify for some form of premium assistance.

Well the response I have received from the article has been amazing. I can’t believe the number of people in the Shuswap that have been charged too much for medical coverage over the years. I’ve had lots of phone calls and people dropping in to ask about how to complete the forms. I’ve even had a phone call from an accounting firm in town telling me that they’ve had clients bringing in the newspaper article with their taxes and asking about it.

I suppose there is some unsuspecting government worker in Victoria that is wondering what in the world is going on in Salmon Arm these days! For years they’ve been punching the clock processing one or two applications a week and suddenly stacks and stacks of applications are coming in from the Shuswap. They might have to create a whole new government department just to deal with all the paperwork. Christie Clark might have to revise the government’s financial forecasts thanks to all of this!

Actually, who am I kidding? Christie’s not going to revise the forecasts; instead the premiums will be increased for the rest of us to make up for lost revenue. All because of Mall Arkey!

I guess I should have consulted the Junior Bean Counter for advice before opening up this can of worms. Make sure you don’t share the information with too many outside of the

mallarkey

by Daron Mayes Shuswap otherwise we could end up being charged hundreds of dollars a month more than we are currently. Even worse, we could have a financial crisis of epic proportions on our hands.

I guess they were right when they said the pen is mightier than the sword!

Transcendent Tile Incorporates Craig Haliburton is incorporating his business and will soon be known as owner of Transcendent Tile Inc. When Craig and his wife, Patricia, moved to Salmon Arm a year and a half ago, he started tiling “just for fun” but it wasn’t long before he loved the art of tile work.

“It’s a career change for me,” says Craig. “I was in restaurant management, managing and rebranding.”

When they moved to Salmon Arm he started training under Don Gray of Perfection Plus. He learned tile installation in many forms, from stone and marble to porcelain and metals. He started off volunteering his time in order to learn, and soon he realized this is what he wanted to do.

“I like doing the artsy things, scribing tiles to incorporate different shapes, patterns and designs or simply the clean lines of a properly-laid floor.”

They moved from Halifax to Salmon Arm to be closer to Patricia’s family.

“With my career change to a tile installer I am able to keep my family life as a priority.”

Craig does contracting for some local companies as well as working on his own. He does renovations and works on new projects such as tiling showers, back-splashes, floors, archways, mosaics and patios.

Craig, Patricia, and their daughter, Elianna (pictured, top), live in Canoe and they are expecting their second child in August.

To contact him, phone 250-253-2862 or email CraigHaliburton@gmail.com.

First Fundraiser for Performing Art Centre The Shuswap Society for Arts & Culture is putting on its first fundraiser this Saturday, April 18 at 7:30 p.m. at the United Church on Okanagan Ave. It will be a musicfilled evening with performances including the Northern Lights Chamber Choir, Sweet Adelines, Jaeden and Aria Izik-Dzurko, and Andrew Stoney, to name a few.

The money will help pay for a feasibility study for the performing arts centre.

Tickets are $25 and are available at Salmon Arm Stationary.

New Owner at Cabana Vallarta Ivan Garcia (above, right) is the new owner of the Mexican restaurant, Cabana Vallarta. Born in Mexico City, Ivan has spent a lot of time in the food and hospitality industry including time working on a cruise ship. But his love of cooking goes back further.

“I always loved cooking, I used to cook for family and friends – I didn’t know people pay you for that,” he says laughing.

Ivan moved to Salmon Arm in 2009 with his wife, Jamie, who is Canadian. He worked at the Mexican restaurant for a while before they did a stint in Winnipeg.

When they came back he was offered the business and he took over a few weeks ago.

New to the restaurant, which will be called Ivan’s Cabana Vallarta, is Maria Rodriguez (above, left). Ivan calls her Tia (aunt) Maria, but they’re not really related, he explains. He worked with her in a high-end Mexican restaurant in Winnipeg and she came to cook for Ivan.

All the favourite items on the menu will remain but more authentic Mexican dishes are being added. They don’t use MSG and most of the dishes are gluten-free.

Pottery Classes Starting Up The Workshop: Studio and Gallery is a new business in the Canoe area. The gallery part will be opened within a couple of months but they just started teaching pottery classes this past week and still have a few vacancies.

Owner and instructor KJ MacAlister (above, left), along with instructor Jeremy Pawlowicz (above, right), instructor, have classes on all weekdays, three hour sessions, for six weeks. Students learn techniques on the potter’s wheel and mid-fire finishing. They are located on the Trans Canada Highway just south of Canoe at 4940 50 St. NE. Their number is 778-489-5249. Or get more information on their website theworskhop-studiogallery. com.

Author Frank W. Anderson wrote about a number of events which happened in BC, including the story of the Frank slide; Bill Miner, train robber; the rum runners. But his compelling booklet of the Hope slide brings the reader to the many activities and persons involved in the tragic earth-shattering happening. His booklet–#12–published by Frontier Publishing of Calgary (1968) was the product of a tremendous amount of research, including input from Highways Minister Phil Gaglardi, Search and Rescue personnel, RCMP, and many others. My involvement was the signing at the viewpoint atop the massive slide, once the debris

was cleared and a road constructed.

However, tragic events continued to happen after the dust settled. Pilots, flying from the interior to the coast, know this as “Green One.” Turbulent winds buffet the mountains, meeting the warm air aloft and creating turbulence off the rugged coastal mountains.

Aviation charts carried by pilots give detailed heights of objects. Unfortunately, once the slide occurred, a RCAF plane ploughed into the high rubble boulders at the peak of the slide.

Norm Stephanishin, of Arrow Transfer of Kamloops, was hauling a load of gasoline to Kelowna, then empty, to pick up a load of aviation fuel at Vancouver via Highway 3, the Hope/ Princeton route. This is when he encountered the yellow convertible driven by Bernie Beck.

The night before, Thomas Starchuck had

driven from Aldergrove to Joe Glacier’s farm at Grandview Flats to pick up 14 tons of hay.

Once loaded, he left the Flats, coming down onto Highway 97 close to O’Keefe General Store, previously owned by Albert Beck.

Albert had five sons: Bernie, Robert, Ralph, George, and Cliff–all musical. I played guitar and sang with Ralph at high school assemblies, belting out the old Hank Williams tunes like “Hey Good Lookin,” and “Move It On Over.”

Joe Glacier drove the school bus at Armstrong for many years, and both his sons, Ron and Len, were good buddies of mine.

Coincidentally, the big oil tanker had rolled past the same spot as Thomas Starchuck’s rig had, heading south at O’Keefe. Now, in the dark, at 6:58 a.m., Saturday, January 9th, 1965, the second of two tremors struck the

by Hank Shelley Nicolum Valley. This is when close to a million tons of rock, earth, and snow began to slip around Hope. Abruptly, Johnson Peak let go, taking all within it. As well, our sign district covered the Hope/ Princeton area to Sumallo Lodge, and down to Silver Creek near Hope. We were well aware of goings on, and it was on December 9th of 1965, that a Canadair DC 4M 2 Northstar Flight 810 with 62 crew and passengers, including eight football players, ploughed into the 2286 metre-high Mt Slesse.

(Mt. Slesse is closer to Chilliwack.) There is a memorial plaque at the site of the crash, and a hiking trail. Once word of the crash occurred, there were rumours that a Chinese passenger had had a money belt with $10,000 in it, and souvenir-seekers con-

verged on the area. One can go online to find out information about the Northstar crash, and the hiking trail.

While working at the plywood plant in Kelowna, I would often see a Chapman moving and storage van around town. That was the good ol’ days, when it was quiet at night, as if someone rolled up the streets. Rutland was a small community, and fishing was always good at Dee Lake chain or Beaver Lake. Deer hunting took us above Peachland, or Carmi, for big mule bucks.

Dave Chapman disappeared on a quick flight above Hope, and many private pilots took to the air to help in the search. This came into conflict with RCMP and Search and Rescue, as at that time, heat-sensing devices were being used for search using grid patterns, and planes got in the way.

There have been some dramatic plane crashes locally, mainly Mabel Lake when a forest service birddog plane crashed north of the lake, and a plane crashed flying up a blind canyon years ago at Crazy Creek near Three Valley Gap.

Get your hands dirty

There is no greater way of getting to know nature than by handling it with bare hands.

Feathers, pine cones and leaves are wonderful treasures for a child to explore. Let kids get their hands dirty, dig in the garden with you or rake and jump in leaves. Kneeling down beside a new bud, exploring pebbles or new growth on the trees are easy ways to engage children in nature.

It only takes a few minutes to walk quietly out to a bug on the deck and examine its colour, number of legs, if it has wings, what it eats or where it might get food in the backyard. Give a child the gift of one minute to watch a spider weave a web. Ask your child why the spider picked that location and what it might catch. If you are one who rushes to kill bugs who trespass in your home, a clean, plastic jar and small piece of cardboard can do wonders to demonstrate respect for all life. As you place the opening of the jar over the intruder, slip the cardboard under it and carefully return the bug outside, you become a mentor for stewardship and teacher of respect for the natural world.

By Andi King The Shuswap Sharp Shooters U12 girl’s development team dominated a very physical Kamloops team over the weekend in their first jamboree of the season in Kelowna. Shuswap didn’t waste any time getting on the board as Phoebe Barnes passed the ball to Jordan King who powered her way past two Kamloops defenders and blasted the ball in the back of the net in the first minute of the game. The

Barnes/ King connection struck again ten minutes later when Barnes made a beautiful pass up the wing to King who used her speed to drive to the goal and finish with a well-placed shot. The score was 2-0 at half time. Shuswap defenders, Laura Hall, Brooklyn Davidson, Jannae Bocking, Lys Milne and Holly McCaskill were solid the entire game. Early in the second half, Shuswap striker Alana O’Dell blasted the ball

into the back of the net off of a break away to make it 3-0. Sophia Ruckle, who had been strong on the wing all game finished off the scoring for Shuswap when she made a crafty run up the left wing and beat the Kamloops goalie with a brilliant shot. Milne recorded the assist.

Julia Hart was stellar in goal and new comer Ryleigh Davis and veteran Gabriella Torrie were solid on the front line. The final score was 4-1 for Shuswap.

Christ in the Apocalypse

Kill the Messenger

Spy drama hits the stage

The director and cast are working hard to refine their roles and actions. The set is ready, costumes and props are nearing completion. The soundscape and the lighting plot are nearly finished.

Shuswap Theatre’s final show of the season is soon to take to the stage.

Pack of Lies, by Hugh Whitemore, is a British drama based on a true story – the discovery of a ring of Russian spies operating in and near London in 1960. The play centres on the Jacksons, an ordinary family in a London suburb, and their very best friends who live across the street.

A visit by a mysterious agent who works in some capacity for the government results in their agreement to allow a surveillance operation from their 16 year old daughter’s bedroom. As it slowly dawns on them that the people being watched are their close friends, the tension mounts.

The Jacksons must pretend (lie) that all is well, while wondering what lies their friends have told them. Is their whole friendship real or is it a fabrication?

Director Kim MacMillan has assembled a stellar cast and crew who are pouring heart and soul into bringing this compelling drama to Shuswap audiences.

Says MacMillan, “While a story about cold war spying is a bit exotic, the feelings that this ordinary family goes through are complete-

ly understandable.

These are people we can relate to. And it raises questions about truth and lies that impact all of our lives.”

The cast of eight consists of Mike Nash, Astrid Varnes, Elaine Homes, Randy Brogden, Peter Blacklock, Jamé Wonacott, Joy Peters and Althea Mongerson.

The producers are Susan MacMillan and Kathy Moore.

Pack of Lies opens on Friday, April 24, running over three weekends to May 9.

Tickets are available

on line at www. shuswaptheatre.com or at Intwined Fibre Arts, on Hudson Avenue across from the Art Gallery.

Thursday, Friday and Saturday shows are at 7:30 p.m., Sundays are at 1:30 p.m. Thursdays are “pay what you can”, cash at the door only.

Vi s i t w w w. shuswaptheatre.com for all the details. The show contains some strong language.

Pack of Lies will also be Salmon Arm’s entry into the O-Zone Drama Festival in Vernon on May 29th.

Kill The Messenger is a dramatic thriller based on the incredible true story of the Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist Gary Webb (Jeremy Renner).

In the mid-1990’s, Webb stumbles upon a story that slowly illuminates the origins of the massive amounts of cocaine that were smuggled into the United States during the 1980’s. Despite warnings from drug lords and government to halt his investigation, Webb uncovers further allegations that the CIA not only knew of the crack epidemic sweeping its nation, but profited from the trafficking and used it to fund the Nicaraguan Contras rebel army. Webb eventually shares his evidence through a published series called “Dark Alliance” and though initially celebrated for his journalism, he finds himself the victim of a destructive smear campaign that threatens his career, his family, and his life.

The cast also includes Rosemarie DeWitt, Robert Patrick, Andy Garcia, Oliver Platt, Michael Sheen, Paz Vega, Gil Bellows, and Ray Liotta.

Kill the Messenger shows at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 18th at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

LSN travels to...

Rome, Italy

Harold and Terry-Mae Sinclair of Salmon Arm visited Rome over the Easter weekend in 2015.

They arrived in Rome on March 27th and visited a lot of the major sites in Rome including the Vatican (St. Peters basilica, Vatican museums, Sistine Chapel), the Colosseum, Roman Forum, Palatine hill, the Pantheon, Santa Maria basilica in Trastevere, St. John’s basilica in Laterano, the Spanish steps, and numerous other sites.

Harold says that pictures cannot

describe the amount of history here or the exquisite details of the architecture. They were both amazed at the amount of detail and effort that was put into building the churches and places of worship in Rome.

They continued their travels by heading to Sorrento, Italy.

Harold and Terry-Mae receive $10 for having their picture printed and are entered into the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2015.

As with any Community Hall – and incidentally, Notch Hill is the oldest in the Shuswap – the second most important job after enticing volunteers is to raise funds for renovations, repairs, upgrading and maintenance. The Association’s membership fee is only ten dollars per person. Hall rental fees are very reasonable.

Grants are undoubtedly out there somewhere waiting to be applied for and of course, community donations are a vital source of revenue.

In his year as President, Alan has experienced his share of frustration and set-backs but he has mostly enjoyed a sense of accomplishment and has worked with other members who’s objectives are the same as his own – that of providing the Notch Hill community with a functioning hall to call their own, to proudly share with family, friends and visitors.

But perhaps more interest- siding for another year, with the help and support ingly, there is the old Notch Hill Community Hall of the residents of Notch Hill. He says anything is of 1909/10, the little white Church which was possible with public participation!

An impressive example of this is at Okanagan operational from 1906 to 1960’s, and the oneroom Notch Hill School built in 1921 and closed Centre. There was a lovely two-room school on a roomy piece of property adjacent to Okanagan in 1971.

Travelling along the Trans Canada Highway through Sorrento, it’s hard to believe that the half farming, half forested valley of Notch Hill even exists over the hill. Its tranquility and relative silence is broken several times a day by CP trains that have made the long hard slog from eastern centres on their way to the coast and back, carrying all manner of goods and materials. To hear the clang of the bells and alarms at the Notch Hill/ Davies Road railway crossing is awesome and thrilling.

Friday, April 17, 2015 Lakeshore News A19

What would Lester B. Pearson say about attacking Syria?

In 1957, Canada was admired around the world. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson, we invented peacekeeping to diffuse the Suez Canal Crisis. In presenting PM Pearson with the Nobel Peace Prize, the selection committee stated he had ‘saved the world’. What a time to be a Canadian. We made the world a better place through our commitment to diplomacy, peacekeeping, active participation in the United Nations and membership in NATO. Fast forward to today. My how things have changed.

Last week we turned into a rogue nation. On March 30th the Conservative government forced passage of a motion to extend and expand our bombing campaign from Iraq into Syria.

This is an illegal action under

international law. By violating its airspace and dropping bombs on its territory, we have effectively declared war on Syria, a sovereign country.

You could be forgiven for thinking we are doing this as part of an international effort.

We are not. This action has no official sanctioning of any kind.

Of the 28 countries in NATO, only one agreed to the US request to bomb Syria: Canada.

Why? The Conservatives have declared war on the Islamic group IS (Islamic State).

IS, which was only able to form and thrive in the power vacuum and chaos that followed the disastrous US invasion of Iraq, has no air force or navy. We will spend at least a half a BILLION dollars over the next year fighting an Arab/US war. But upgrades to the Trans Canada

Highway, which would save lives immediately, will have to wait until we can afford it.

So now we enter a Syrian bombing campaign with no plan, no endgame, no objectives and no justification. We’ll bomb “the bad guys,” but who are they? Any weakening of IS will help President Assad, the man rightly vilified for the atrocities committed on his own people.

Canadian bombs dropped on “IS targets” will kill countless women, children and other innocents. Will the survivors be the future “terrorists”?

One has to wonder what Lester B. Pearson would have to say about Canada under the Harper government. I don’t think he would recognize what we have become.

Tobiah Riley, Salmon Arm

50% oppose it.

The more Canadians learn about what’s in this bill, the less they like it – that’s why opinion is changing so fast. If the bill passes, your sensitive private information would be shared between no fewer than 17 government agencies and even handed to foreign governments. This includes sensitive information that can reveal everything from your financial status, to your medical history, your sexual orientation, and even your religious and political beliefs. Victims of these privacy breaches wouldn’t even be informed – that means the government could spy on anyone, at any time, and we wouldn’t even know when we’ve been a victim. Do we really want the

From left, Jenn Pletsch, Barb MacKay, Lauren Ough, Skip, and Chelsea Conroy organize returnables collected during the Girl Guides’ recycling event held last Saturday in the Rainbow Glass parking lot.

The Guides have been fundraising for two years by doing such things as bottle drives, cookie sales, picking up golf balls at Hyde Mountain, and other activities to fund a trip to Peak Camp in the UK. They will be on their way in fewer than 100 days. Howard Vangool photo.

Protect our privacy!

Opinion on Bill C-51 dropping fast

The government’s secret police Bill C-51 is reckless, dangerous, and ineffective.

The bill is reckless because it turns CSIS into a ‘secret police’ force with little oversight or accountability. It is dangerous because it opens the door for violations of our charter rights including censorship of free expression online. It is ineffective because it will lead to dragnet surveillance and information sharing on innocent Canadians that even Stephen Harper has admitted is ineffective.

To make matters, worse the government is trying to push this law through parliament in record time. Before Canadians knew what was in Bill C-51, 17% opposed it. Three weeks later, they found out. Now

One step closer to the UK

government to create a shadowy and unaccountable secret police force that will trample on innocent citizens’ freedoms? These new spying powers are highly unpopular: 71% of Canadians don’t want to trade their privacy rights to give spy agencies more power.

Over 110,000 people have already spoken out. The government has admitted Bill C-51 is fundamentally flawed, so they must withdraw the legislation, go back to the drawing board and start over. Our MP, Colin Mayes, needs to vote against this bill.

I encourage Canadians to learn more about how we can work together to stop Secret Police Bill C-51 at: StopC51. ca Neil Caves, Salmon Arm

To Colin Mayes, MP -- Okanagan - Shuswap, This bill needs to be stopped. This is NOT what being Canadian is about. The bill is more like in the USA where it is going towards a police state situation.

Please do your job and protect our privacy and rights to speech and believe and think as WE individually choose!!

Urine jugs and flying feces?

I think I must apologize before you read this “true” story regarding the large number of urine jugs thrown out of semi-trucks and onto our highways. The reason being is the drivers of these rigs do not want to stop as it takes time away from their trips. The urine jug story appeared in a Kamloops newspaper last week.

In conversation about this filthy habit with a reputable tire repair employee, I was informed that some technicians are reluctant to work on some of these rigs as they have discovered foul smells coming from the trucks’ underbodies

and along the frames.

The cause of this is the driver sometimes brings friends and/or family along and they ride in the sleeper unit. In some instances, they cut a hole in the bottom of the sleeper floor and poop through the hole as they drive along. Doing this prevents them from having to stop the truck for bathroom breaks.

Can you imagine? I was flabbergasted and appalled on hearing of this practice.

Imagine the truck mechanic having to work on the truck!

I’m not sure if submitting a letter to a local newspaper will do anything, but perhaps it

might encourage other people to report this disgusting practice if they are ever witness to it?

If I ever see a bottle thrown out of a truck, I will report it to police with the hopes it might end up in a hefty fine for the driver.

Remember back in the day, we used to travel more by rail and reading the sign in the bathroom asking you to not flush the toilet while the train was stopped at the station. It’s sort of the same kind of thing and it is still a “@#$-y” problem.

B. Campbell, Sorrento

Larry and Helen’s idea of the perfect family was two boys and two girls, so they adopted their son Gary, and daughters Tia and Tara. They also had numerous foster children over the years.
