Pat Duke Arena To the Editor: In a world full of so many negatives – let me share a load of positivity! 5 years ago Rhonda Catt shared her application for Lumby to be Kraft Hockeyville. There ended up being well over 200 applications. Lumby was shortlisted and we won. We received $100,000 & raised close to another $100,000 including a grant from Telus, and then White Valley Parks & The Village of Lumby waited patiently for grant applications that were sent in by Tannis Nelson via NORD. The Pat Duke Memorial Arena ended up with a total of $3,000,000 from federal gas taxes for upgrades focusing on change rooms for female hockey players. It’s 4 and a half years since Lumby won Hockeyville and 4 years and over 2 months since The LA Kings played the Edmonton Oilers as Lumby won Hockeyville. The girls have their own change room rather than a closet or a bathroom and while Covid is making this a creative time, everyone involved needs to be thanked. The Lumby Arena crew have added out Hockeyville logo back on the ice, centre ice is Peter Catt’s emblem and our barn has been restored for new generations of hockey players, figure skaters, ringette players, laLumby and District Wildlife Association

A HUGE thanks to Whitevalley Parks & Rec, NORD, The Village of Lumby, LMHA, Lumby Figure Skating. A thank you to everyone who sat on the toilet with their phones and tablets and voted for Lumby – don’t pretend you didn’t. We all did for 2 different weekends! To each friend, family member, grandparent and social network you shared with Thank You. Kraft Hockeyville taught me that every single memory is worth it. The late nights, the tense moments and bringing the community together with voting, with a live winning show on Sportsnet and with an NHL game where many got to meet McDavid & others. While our world seems to be a challenge – let’s continue to make memories, support our community members, check in on people and throw kindness around like it’s confetti or hot sauce ;) Thanks again to everyone involved. With a community behind an idea, anything & everything is truly possible. Cheers, Angie Clowry

What Did The Porcupine Say To The Cactus?… Hey There Good Looking!
The Christmas Cactus
I and many others I’m sure are very happy with the reprieve from Mother Nature on what is supposed to be a cold and snowy El Nino winter. This will last a bit longer and thankfully has allowed time to get leaves down off the trees and cleaned up although a few are sticking stubbornly. A friend has given me this subject matter to investigate that many are not aware of but many grow this plant and always it brings great joy during the Christmas season. The Christmas cactus is truly not a cactus at all but a succulent that grows in the forest regions of Brazil and as such is not treated like a cactus, like a succulent it grows on other plants and rocks allowing the roots to breathe It is of the same family as the Thanksgiving and Easter Cactus, blooming of course at Christmas should all requirements be met. These requirements are quite similar to each of these Cacti with a few small but vital differences. To tell these 3 apart one should note that the Thanksgiving Cactus has very sharp points on its leaves almost claw shaped usually 2 to four per side and its blooms come in many colours, the Christmas Cactus has more rounded scalloped edges to its leaves and it usually blooms in white or pink, the Easter Cactus has very rounded leaves with fine hair like tufts on the ends. They are all known as “short day plants” and basically require the same nutrient, water and sunlight to ensure we have the blooms in the season we want them. All should be grown in indirect light such as what we would get in an eastern facing window any show of red in the plants leaves indicate too much sun and therefore should be moved to more indirect light source. It should also be protected from too much and too little water as well as any direct heat sources. These plants usually live up to 30 years but also have been documented to be up to 150 years old and passed from generation to generation. My Mother In Law brought one out to me for my wedding (she is a gifted horticulturist, she with my dear Father In Law started the Quebec Rose Society and knew their stuff!) and it took me 10 years for me to kill it, I could not get it to bloom, It grew a minor leaf once, wilted often and then finally expired. I hope still to get a cutting from
her so I can try again. Cuttings are easy to grow all to ease one need do is take any limbs that fall off or take cut- off the tings by twisting the stem off at the leaf junctures and watering place them in water until roots appear.

Finding Connection
How strange it is that in a lot of ways, we are more connected than we have ever been thanks to modern technology, but yet many of us are lonelier than ever before. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic forced us in physical distancing an estimated one in five Canadians admitted to feeling lonely, occasionally or much of the time. Feeling alone can cause mental misery but for older adults in particular, it can wreak physical havoc and increase the risk of health problems from heart disease to even premature death.

There are things we can do to lift our spirits and assist those seniors close to us. Pinpoint the problem: Solving any problem begins with recognizing it. Although, admitting to loneliness can be a challenge as it can manifest with symptoms like lack of sleep and energy; being tearful, anxious or angry; substance abuse and even body pains. If you are feeling this way, it is easy to become more withdrawn, so determining the issue is vital. Set up structure: As we age and eventually retire, we lose much of our structured routine and one day can blend into the next easily. Most of us are creatures of habit so sticking to a routine can be beneficial. Treat that morning walk or a phone call with a friend as an appointment that you cannot break. Push yourself to follow through. Get moving: Movement is so important and can energize you mentally and physically. You do not have to run a marathon as even short outings can be hugely beneficial. Help someone else: Finding opportunities to be of service in your community can bring a strong sense of purpose and the possibilities are endless; from
fostering connections that already exist, to finding a volunteer position, offering a neighbour some help or sending a bouquet of flowers. Acts of kindness bear many rewards for all involved. Enlist help: Some elderly cannot be expected to find solutions for themselves when they are struggling to cope. If this is the case, talk to your doctor. Your physician can help differentiate between loneliness and chronic depression and assist in any referrals needed. It is normal to feel lonely sometimes, but if that feeling becomes constant, it is time to make some changes. Whitevalley Community Resource Centre is a local non-profit agency that can help with senior services, information, supports, counselling, referrals and resources. Please call 250-547-8866 for more information.

COLLEEN’S CORNER
By Colleen Fielding Welcome to Colleen’s Corner. This is a column meant for fun and some information About myself: I am a Freelance Photographer you often see me on the side of the road or in various places taking photos of different things animals, birds, places, people etc. l have lived in Lumby just over 8 years,you have seen my photos in the newspaper (Lumby Valley Times) and once in awhile in the Vernon Morning Star, and the Lumby Art Gallery. Photography is my passion. Disclaimer: The information on some of my photos that I write about a lot of times come from the Internet or books I research them, hopefully the facts are as close to the truth as I can come.
Playing in the Dirt I have five different flower gardens in my backyard, so when everything blooms at various times my backyard looks awesome. For years I had problems with one of the gardens, I called it the "dead garden" as nothing would hardly grow there. This was due partly to not so good dirt, and the cats in my neighbourhood using it as their personal bathroom. So, I started composting. I bought myself a little composter that I turn whenever I add things to it. I keep a smaller green kitchen composter in the house and when full I take my scraps out to the larger one outside. Fall is a great time to start to compost. In my composter I have added some cardboard, dirt, leaves from the trees, twigs, tree pruning's, eggshells, coffee filters, bananas, etc. I am careful not to add meat, bones, onions, perennial weeds, diseased plants, corn cobs, and peach pits for some reason these two items are hard to compost, I also don't
add acidic items to my composter. There are many types of composters out there, some people even just make a big pile outside. When you compost be patient as it will take about a year to have the rich soil full of nutrients that will be great for your lawns, trees, and gardens whether it is vegetable or flowers. Composting is not only good for your gardens, but great for the environment. When you compost after about 3-or 4 weeks your compost will start to cook, this will break down the items in the composter generating heat. With the help of a lot of turning (about once a week or so) the pile will start to shrink and become compact. After about six months when the texture has the feeling and look of a sponge that you have wrung out, your dirt should be dark , crumbly, and smell like the earth. If it has all of this then hooray, you did a great job with your compost and it is now ready to
be mixed into the gardens or dressed on your lawn, and around your trees. Now you have a beautiful lawn, nice growing trees, and awesome gardens. After years of replenishing with the composted earth my " dead garden" now grows beautiful flowers in it. Unfortunately, the cats in my neighbourhood still use my gardens as their own personal bathroom, I am not sure how to stop that.
Lumby Firefighters Awarded Gold Pins
A group of Lumby and District Firefighters were awarded gold pins from the firefighting equipment manufacturer, Holmatro, for their outstanding response to a complex call. In July, a crew of Lumby and District Firefighters responded to a scene in which a semi-truck had rolled over on the highway. The team had to work quickly and in a coordinated fashion to free the driver from the wreck. Thankfully, the driver survived the accident. “Each member of the crew demonstrated their exemplary professionalism at the scene. Every role is important to make sure the best result is achieved, and

MIKKIE’S CORNER
Sleep Deprivation and Obesity
It’s a cold winters night and a feeling of slumber comes over you and the first thought of comfort is crawling under your warm blankets and falling into a deep sleep. Many of us eventually give in to this, but stave it off or ignore for far too long. Our bodies are telling us we need sleep! Sleep is when our body regenerates, heals, repairs and
www.lumbyvalleytimes.ca
Health & Nutrition
keeps our minds refreshed. Many new thoughts or problem solving, comes a lot easier once you have had proper sleep. Our immune system relies on sleep to stay healthy and a deficiency can change the way in which our immune system responds. For example, if you're sleep deficient, you may have trouble fighting common infections.
In fact, it plays such an important role in our health that an ongoing deficiency is linked to many chronic diseases: Heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, kidney disease. Other more immediate things are, coordination, balance, mind clarity…. The methods used to “stay awake” not only aid in the serious health consequences that can come from sleep deprivation but actually speed them up to happening faster. Way to often stimulants of coffee, tea or energy boosting drinks are used when we are sleep deprived in the hope of some instant energy. Additional food – excess energy, is also consumed, and in many cases, almost in a way of being unconsciously aware it. When we use stimulants to fight off sleep, we impact many hormones from doing their jobs properly and this leads to another major risk factor – obesity. In a study of teenagers, the results showed that with each hour of sleep lost, the odds of becoming obese went up. This went on to study other age groups and found sleep deficiency had the same result. The hormones affected by the above that lead to obesity are ghrelin the “hunger hormone”, leptin the “full hormone”, insulin the “blood sugar” hormone and cortisol the “stress” hormone. How it works: When sleeping your body doesn’t require much energy so there’s no need to trigger the feeling of hunger or the burning of calories. This results in leptin levels being elevated and ghrelin levels being decreased. But when sleep deprivation is present your brain gets mixed signals. Through a series of steps, your brain is told or thinks there is not enough energy for the needs at hand, so it says you are hungry. Even though you don't actually need food at that time, your decrease in leptin and increase in ghrelin levels results in a constant state of hunger and slow down of metabolism. The result being everything you eat in this state, your body stores these calories as fat (basically ceasing calorie burn), so you have enough energy for next time. The body actually thinks there is a calorie shortage and goes into a survival mode. Insulin and cortisol are then affected as insulin controls blood glucose (sugar) levels and sleep deficiency results in a higher than normal blood sugar level. Cortisol stimulates fat and carbohydrate metabolism for fast energy and in the case of sleep deprivation gets elevated in effort to stimulate alertness. But with ongoing elevated cortisol levels, cells of our body can become resistant to insulin. The result of this is an increase in appetite and causes of cravings for sweet, high-fat, and salty foods. This contributes the to chronic diseases that come about as we the foods grabbed, are not usually nutrition dense. If we grabbed for vegetables we wouldn’t have as big a problem. So, give in and go to sleep! Mikkie Nettles, Certified Personal Trainer/Holistic & Sports Nutritionist Follow DEEM Health on Facebook, or contact info@deemhealth.ca

Arts & Culture from the Edge
Shop Local with the Christmas Store 2020 has been a year of disruption, but people are still determined to enjoy the seasonal pleasure. One of these pleasures is gift shopping. The people of our community want to be able to continue to support the local crafters and artisans, and we have tried our best to make that possible by gathering over 20 different artist and crafters to showcase samples of their work. Please come and see the talent of our local community and support our local artisans, all while still maintaining a health conscious environment in this time of social distancing. Many of our artist and crafters are also open to commission so if you see a work you like, but are hoping for something unique and one of a kind this is the time to get it done! The Christmas store is located at the Village Gallery at 1975 Vernon Street (Hwy 6) and will run November 2nd to December 24th, Monday to Saturday from 10am to 4pm. Masks are currently mandatory under BC health regulations and we ask that you use the hand sanitizer
C LASSIFIEDS
that has been provided while in the gallery. We ask that you do not shop if you are feeling unwell. Let’s all do our part to ensure this is an enjoyable Holiday season! We need you! Monashee Arts Council is in need of members willing to volunteer to keep the Arts alive in our community! So if you are interested in helping promote local art and fostering an atmosphere that nurtures upcoming artists, the Monashee Arts Council can use your organizational skills and other talents. Join us and ensure our organization remains a meaningful addition to this community Time to renew your membership! It’s getting to that time of year when we need to renew our annual membership for 2021! For just $15 adult / $2 youth you can help to keep the Arts alive in our community. Don’t forget that memberships can make wonderful Christmas presents.

Herbal Remedies And COVID-19
I do not advocate purchasing off-the-shelf or online products touting benefits against the coronavirus. Coronavirus is a potentially life-threatening virus. It’s best to consult with a physician familiar with herbs and their properties or a naturopathic doctor before taking any herbal product. Countless natural remedies for coronavirus have circulated on social media, including various immune system boosters and a “miracle mineral solution,” a mixture of sodium chlorite that the Food and Drug Administration has warned is more or less drinking bleach. Stimulating the immune system sounds like a positive approach. However, the basic tenet of botanical medicine is that all people are treated individually. How a botanical works in your body may be completely different from how it behaves in another. Some people’s immune systems don’t fight hard enough, but others are overreacting to COVID-19. When this happens, the immune system produces too many inflammatory signals (a cytokine* storm) that can lead to organ failure and death. Misused, certain herbs could boost the immune system and precipitate the cytokine storm. What makes COVID-19 different from and the usual cold and flu virus? All viruses use a particular protein called a spike to attach to your cells. The flu virus spike attaches to something known as sialic acid. The new coronavirus binds to the cellular receptor ACE-2. You may be familiar with ACE-2 because it is associated with hypertension. So the reason current antivirals don’t work on Covid-19 is that it
attaches to a “novel” receptor. Many antiviral herbs are proven to work against multiple viruses; however, there’s no hard evidence to date that they will work against the coronavirus. The best thing you can do for your immune system is to maintain a healthy gut. A healthy microbiome is paramount to reducing inflammation. Restful sleep and managing stress are also critically important to a healthy immune system. Practice meditation every day. No time? Try Dr. Aviva Romm’s “Quickie.” “Wherever you are, sitting or standing, get comfortable and take a few deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth. If you are sitting, close your eyes. On the next inhalation, which you will do to the count of 4, say to yourself “I am” and on the exhale to the count of 4 say to yourself, “at peace.” Repeat this cycle of inhalations and exhalations, each to the count of 4, 3-4 times… it can be done anywhere – even while driving (with your eyes open, of course!). It cuts stress and irritability in a flash!” *(Cytokines, small proteins released by cells in the body, including the immune system where they coordinate the body’s response against infection and trigger inflammation.)

OBITUARIES Albert
Eberhard 1953 - 2020
It is with heavy hearts we share the passing of a one-of-a-kind, incredible and irreplaceable man. Rest in Peace my Papi, our Grossdaddi and soul mate. May your love to live a colorful, passionate and inspired life continue to shine through the unbelievable creations you built, paradise you brought to fruition and the grandchildren you’ve influenced who will carry on your heritage and traditions. You loved animals, flowers and having deep conversations about everything! Life often threw you curve balls, but you were a fighter and survivor. You did everything for your family and future that gave you the unimaginable strength to succeed. You had the confidence and wisdom to take on any challenge, overcome any obstacle and help anyone accomplish any task. You never gave up. You were a “doer”, until the angels came to bring you home. Even in your final days battling mesothelioma and rheumatoid arthritis you were working on your last piece of art, “The Tree House,” an inspiration of imagination and artistic creation for generations to come. You lived and died doing what you loved and desired on the place you called home, the Sunrise Ranch. At age nine, you built your first “Alphuettli” in the Alps where you spent most of your time with the sheep and goats exploring nature and discovering your thrill for independence, adventure and risk. At 14 you were determi¬ned to set out on your own. Then you immigrated from Switzerland to B.C. in your 20’s and bought your dream ranch in Lumby where you began your new life as a successful farmer and talented jack of all trades. You will forever be our inspirational star.
