s r e p or t e d i n t he March 9 edition, the Grade 12 Interdisciplinary Studies in Science class at Rivers Collegiate planned a project for Riverdale Harvest.

Dubbed the Boat Load of Food, students secured a canoe from Rolling River School Division with an intent to f ill it with non-perishables. Although the campaign was fully organized by that class, the original idea came from a suggestion made by harvest volunteer Liliane Dupuis.

“I heard the idea at a meeting in Brandon. St. Augustine School had tried Fill a Canoe in conjunction with the 10-day Festival du Voyaguer in Winnipeg in February. It was very successful and whenever I hear food bank, my ears always perk up!”

She then brought the suggestion to Riverdale Harvest, which supported the idea and asked her to present the promo-

tion to the schools.

Pupils co-ordinated the entire month-long promotion, which culminated in a ceremonious presentation on March 20 to Riverdale Harvest president Heather Gray and Liliane.

Because the snow had melted so much, the canoe could not be portaged across the street to Zion Church (home of Riverdale Harvest). Rather, the teens carried bags, boxes and garbage

cans from the school foyer into the church basement the afternoon of March 21, where the food was weighed and sorted.

Although the project was a senior students brainstorm, the entire high school was encouraged to participate. The collegiate hosted a poor boy floor hockey tournament in which to play, athletes had to pay with food for the canoe. Some students also canvassed Rivers, Oak River

and Chimo Beach areas for contributions from the community.

When all was said and done, the scales at Riverdale Harvest noted a total of 434 pounds, “a fabulous amount,” says Heather.

“We are so pleased they decided to help those we serve. A lot of times kids don’t get enough credit but this group of students certainly deserves some praise.

All students stayed behind to help check expiry dates, sort and

put away in the proper place on the shelving units. They were fantastic! We are very, very pleased.”

Elementary school staff member/Harvest volunteer Yvonne Crouch initiated a similar campaign in her school. That threeweek effort simply encouraged students to leave product in the canoe; 87 pounds of food was collected from the younger group on Thursday, March 22.

Ron Krahn and Providence Farms provided the 130 bushels of wheat for the training. Brad Yochim was the instructor for the course. Thanks to all the firefighters for taking time out of your weekend to better your community’s safety.

Something will turn up!

y father used the expression “Something will turn up!” many times. He did so with good reason, because in his 80 years on this earth from 1907 to 1987, he had many occasions to despair but he usually chose not to do so.

He usually explained that the phrase came from the book, David Copperfield. While dad didn’t have a lot of years of formal education, he was an avid reader and he had indeed read the book.

A quick bit of research shows that Wilkins Micawber is a clerk in Charles Dickens’s 1850 novel David Copperfield. He is traditionally identified with the optimistic belief that “something will turn up”. His name has become synonymous with someone who lives in hopeful expectation.

I have a teacher friend who states hope and optimism another way who says, “There’s always a way.” He teaches it to his students, his kids and his hockey teams.

It is no surprise that we all follow advice and philosophy from our parents, grandparents and friends. So it’s no surprise that I have adopted my fathers’s “something will turn up” idea. I have followed it up for years, perhaps all my life.

It’s only recently that I have put that saying into a business philosophy. The latest version is “My task in running a business or organization is to keep the door open so that the opportunities have a place to walk into.”

It has stood us in good stead, albeit there have been some severe struggles. We have

had a number of successes, and we have only had to shut down one venture in 55 years of being in business. I would like to think a number of organizations have benefited from applying our business philosophy as well. 1986, we had to shut down our farming operation. A combination of drought one or two years, flooding another, 23 per cent interest on our operating loan plus a few bad decisions by myself spelled the end of the road for our farm. That experience was devastating to us all but probably worse for my wife and our two sons. The farm shutdown really hurt both sets of our parents as well.

But that’s the past. The farming thing was a learning experience, even the shutdown.

There have been many happier experiences.

One is the paper you are holding in your hands right now.

If it’s the The Rivers Banner you are reading, it’s now owned by our grandson Micah Waddell. Nearly 30 years ago, the Rivers Gazette-Reporter closed down for a number of reasons. It looked like the end of a newspaper in Rivers, but my wife and I decided to buy the name, the archives and the equipment from the bank. We may still have one or two tables left from that era, but just about all the outdated equipment was sold off or went for scrap.

So, Rivers Gazette-Reporter became the Rivers Banner (Gazette-Reporter). Just as a side note, the Rivers Banner was saved from a fate that has befallen many small town newspapers. The newspaper death-list is

RIGHT IN THE CENTRE

Ken Waddell lengthy and includes the Carberry NewsExpress, Melita New Era, Deloraine Times and Star, Reston Recorder, Souris PlainDealer, Westman Journal, Altona Red River Valley Echo, Selkirk Journal, Carman Valley Leader, Winkler-Morden Times, Stonewall Argus and Interlake Spectator. Almost all the failed papers listed above, failed due to the faraway corporate ownership model. That model just doesn’t work. Local ownership is the only way to go.

Another reason these papers failed is that too many times, advertisers expected to get free ads. It’s ironic that we get requests, even this week, from governments and corporations asking us to print free posters and ads for events. The answer is a polite, but firm “no”.

If it’s the Neepawa Banner & Press you are reading, here’s another “Something will turn up!” story. While we were phasing out our farming days in the 1980s, I became a columnist for Grainews, a popular farm paper.

That re-awakened our interest in newspapers and as we were already spending a fair chunk

of money on ads for our auction business, we asked the owners of the Neepawa Press if we might have a chance to buy the paper. For a number of reasons, it didn’t work out and the local owners sold to a couple of partners who then ran the Neepawa Press for many years. We did start the Neepawa Banner in 1989 on a shoestring and hundreds of times we had to say “Something will turn up!” It was a tough go for sure.

In 2010 or so, the remaining Neepawa Press owner sold to a major corporation and I can unabashedly state that it didn’t go well. We bought the failing Neepawa Press in 2015 and a year or so later, made it into the Neepawa Banner & Press.

Yes, there is always a way or as Wilkins Micawber said over 150 years ago, “Something will turn up!”

Climate Clip # 7

Because so much of North America is suffering an extreme heat wave and because the record breaking temperatures are again a clarion call for climate alarmists to say we’re going to destroy the planet unless we stop emitting CO2, it seems like a good idea to discuss heat waves, their causes and history and to show that we suffer more from a lack of knowledge than from a world gone out of control because of anthropogenic global warming.

The first thing I learned upon doing research was this: accurate record keeping for air temperatures is a recent thing. Our scientifically studied heat and cold temperature variation records are only about 150 years old.

But as with the weather cycles from the past, warm and cold extremes were recorded in family journals, church history, local newspapers and through oral tradition.

These records have given us some excellent information about past heat waves. While we don’t have temperature numbers we can see that the descriptions are quite telling and sound worse than what is being experienced now.

637 AD: In France & Germany all springs dried up, water was so scarce that people died of thirst.

873 AD: Field labourers in Europe had to stop working because they were fainting in just a few minutes from the very powerful sun.

993 AD: The sun was so strong that vegetation burned up “as under the action of fire” 1000 “ : The rivers ran dry; fish died and were left on dried up beds in heaps. Stench from rot produced a plague.

RiveRs BanneR Est. 1908

STAFF

1022 AD: If they ventured out into the sun, men and animals fell down dying; blood rushed to the brain from the heat of the sun.

1132 AD: Many rivers dried up; the ground cracked and baked to the hardness of stone. The river Rhine in Alsace nearly dried up.

1260 AD: During Battle of Bela, more soldiers died from the sun’s fierce heat than by weapons.

The list could go on and on –1625 Scotland, 1705 France, 1779 Bologna. Europe in July 1793 was so hot that the vegetation burned up, the fruit dried on the vine, house wood and furniture cracked and split, and meat went bad within one hour.

1832: Extreme heat caused cholera in France - 20,000 deaths in Paris alone.

1846: Records show 125 F. degrees in the sun, and in 1930 the thermometer recorded 50 degrees C (122 F) in North America.

Now for the present and the reasons for the current heat wave.

According to meteorologist, Chuck Wiese, solar radiation is the key driver causing the new record breaking high temperatures.

Environment Canada’s extreme weather scientist, Dr. Madhav Khandekar says that this weather event is caused by natural climate variability, not climate change and is comparable to heat waves that happened during the 1920’s and 1930’s.

This weather pattern is quite common in the summer.

One of the factors that made this heat wave so extreme is the time it happened - during the summer solstice when the days are longest with the most sunshine. Other contributing factors – wind direction, Pacific ocean temperatures, solar activity, the jet stream, high and low pressure systems, and a lack of clouds. I’ll do my best to explain.

A heat dome, which is what the west coast has been experiencing, is a huge, sprawling ridge of high pressure stalled over the area like a large cap. It is started by a strong change in ocean temperatures in the tropical Pacific Ocean, moving from west to east, during the preceding winter. As the prevailing ocean winds drive the hotter ocean air east, the northern shifts of the jet stream trap that air and move it toward the land where it falls, resulting in heat waves.

The high pressure dome rotates clockwise, causing sinking air, and creating “downslope” winds. That sinking air compresses as it falls and gets hotter. Another wind direction has played a role as well. Easterly winds from the continent have pushed the coastal marine layer of ocean-chilled air back out to sea preventing any cooloff at night. More importantly the wind from the east caused even more downhill movement of the air off the coastal mountains which further compressed it as it was pushed toward the ground. Compressed air develops its own heat and raised the temperatures even more.

Home Bodies

By Rita Friesen

Writer’s note: This week my sister, The Elder, was willing to share her insight into making the most of isolation. Trust you enjoy hearing her perspective. n Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, we were serious about lockdown during COVID-19 in 2020. For four months (111 days), the city was not allowed to visit the country. All but essential services – food, banks and post offices – were closed. Masks were compulsory. My son, living less than 100 km from me, might as well have been on the moon. Except for WhatsApp, the phone, Zoom and Messenger, to name but four platforms that kept us connected.

During that time, my Canadian sisters reached out to me. Every Monday night, from the beginning to the end of my isolation, they called me. We chatted, from between half to an hour and a half (depending on what problems of the world were to be solved on the night) and almost always ended up laughing and signing off with love. Sometimes there wasn’t a lot to laugh about.

We found out that we have completely different memories of people, places and events. We remembered different words of wisdom from our dad, though each of us knew that we were his favourite daughter! We remembered traditions differently. I don’t remember

I

home traditions because when I left home, we were still celebrating high days and holy days with our grandparents, both sets of whom we all remember with varying degrees of fondness. We remember different cousins because we had so many from which to choose that we could be very age specific about our friends. A favourite aunt of ours has completely different virtues depending on which one of us was reminiscing. One remembers her sons, one remembers her ice cream and one remembers her garden!

Looking at our faces on our platform, the family bones show clearly now that we are not 40 anymore. It’s clear we are all related and it’s comfortable speaking with someone who looks and sounds like us.

We have different views on the afterlife and on organised religion. We are, however, united in our views of compassion, charity, the environment– and in actions being louder than words (though we are a wordy lot).

We have learned to listen to each other better than we ever did before. Though we have travelled together several times before, and stayed in each other’s homes for short periods of time, we seem to have got to know each other more intimately over COVID-19 than we did previously.

Perhaps the regular contact has created trust among us. My nieces have been invited to join the conversation but have declined so long that if they were to join us now, it would seem odd to me. I look forward to seeing the faces, and continuing the story where it left off the week before. Our lives are stories: they have beginnings, middles and ends. COVID-19 is a shared incident in the story, albeit a big one, and it has brought us to a sharing the like of which I never felt before.

We have made much of time during COVID-19.

ature seems to play havoc all over the world.

There have been mudslides in the eastern parts and f looding in Europe. Then we look in Canada and we see an unexpected tornado and I’m praying for some of my family in BC who are on an evacuation alert because of forest fires. I hear stories about a reduced harvest of grains and hay.

The heat has been devastated. Some have cattle sales because the farmers do not have enough hay to make it through the winter. I see the beautiful yellow canola fields but in some places the f lowers are falling off and they are not forming pods.

Our faith is being tested daily no matter what we encounter in life. Not always will our wishes and dreams come true. Sometimes God’s time is not our time. But like God told Joshua after he had to take over from Moses “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged,” Joshua 1:9.

During these uncertain times God is with us and He is in control over the universe. God will bring it to pass.

Heat waves Continuation from page 2

The high pressure system complicated things by keeping clouds from forming because it prevented any rising air motion in the atmosphere. This lack of clouds allowed the sun to shine with unrestricted power. The heat accumulated over many days becoming a selfperpetuating monster. It blasted away the soil’s moisture and the sun’s effect became even stronger.

As persistent and intense as this heat wave has been, it has still not broken the record for the longest heat wave.

That record absolutely belongs to the decade of the 1930’s with 1934 being the worst drought year on record.

But, as usual, the media and the politicians (none of whom are scientists) proclaim with absolute assurance that we are suffering from the effects of human caused climate change. Here are some examples of their duplicity: 1) the EPA has deleted a long-standing climate data chart from its site and replaced it with a chart that removes any record of the great drought and heat wave of the 1930’s. 2) Temperatures initially reported have been inaccurate - a news site in Seattle stated that the Renton high was 120 degrees F and then had to retract and correct it to 108 degrees F. 3) ABC News has blamed climate change for this hot weather, starting with the incorrect information that the western US has been suffering severe drought conditions for a couple of decades. It has not.

To blame current drought conditions, of only two years’ duration, on human-caused global warning is pure propaganda.

I liked the comment from Chris Martz from Weather Facts: “Using single weather events as evidence that global warming is either a hoax or is a crisis is completely dishonest and two-faced. I have seen too many certain people do it for both reasons, and it’s usually to try to pass legislation. In other words, this entire movement has become a political thing and not one about science.

It’s clear as day, and if you can’t see that, then you’re on your own.”

Three little ducklings running away from home

PHOTOS BY MICAH WADDELL

Three little ducklings were spotted at the lake over the weekend seemingly taking a leave from their supervising parent to go for a swim. Approaching the young birds was almost impossible to get a close up picture. As seen in the right photo, when someone got within 12 feet of them the little guys were off like a shot, moving way faster than one might think possible on the water.

Spruce Plains RCMP report

By Cpl. Jacob Stanton Spruce Plains RCMP

During the week of July 12 to July 18, Spruce Plains RCMP dealt with 61 police activities.

July 12: RCMP began the week with a false alarm in the town of Neepawa. Police also received a report of a stolen vehicle in Gladstone, the matter is still under investigation. Police received one f inal complaint of some facebook problems.

July 13: RCMP responded to another false alarm in the Municipality of Minto-Odanah.

IPM for the Home and Garden

Patricia Hanbidge Orchid Horticulture

Integrated Pest Management or IPM is an approach to managing pest problems while at the same time minimizing risk and effect on the environment. IPM is a long-term management plan that will prevent pest problems, minimize damage by utilizing a combination of control techniques. Techniques like biological controls, manipulation of habitats, utilization of resistant varieties and modif ications of cultural practices and if needed chemical controls. Methods of pest management are chosen that minimize risk to human health, benef icial and non-target organism and the environment.

So what is a pest? A pest is an organism that damages or interferes with the life cycle of plants we desire in our orchards, gardens, landscape, homes or wild areas you may be enjoying. Pests include organisms that impact our animal or human health. The pest itself may be a nuisance or may be a vector that transmits

disease or causes damage to the water quality, animal life or any part of the ecosystem.

T hose t hat pract ice IPM are taking action to keep the pests from becoming an issue in the f irst place. IPM is not an instant technique to eradicate pests but instead looking for a wide variety of methods to ensure the pest is causing minimal da mage. T here a re a number of accepted steps to IPM but bear in mind that each pest problem is individual in nature.

1. Monitoring or scouting - it is essential to know what is happening in your home and garden if you are going to be successful at IPM. A regular, methodical inspection of the landscape to detect the presence, concentration and type of pests.

2. Pest identif ication - correct identif ication of the pest causing the problem is half-way to the solution. An understanding of the life cycle, the stages of the life of the pest that cause damage as well as good knowledge of the plants affected.

3. Assessment - utilizing information form scouting

and identification, as well as understanding the level of acceptable damage will determine the course of action.

4. Implementat ion once a management strategy has been selected, it should be employed in a timely manner. This will keep problems to a minimum, and will ensure the right strategy will be used at the right time, in the right amount at the right place.

5. Evaluation - review what worked well and what didn't to ensure best practices are followed.

Ideally, IPM will be: least disruptive of natural controls; least hazardous to human health; least toxic to non-target organisms; least damaging to the environment; most likely to produce permanent reduction of the pest; easiest to carry out effectively; cost-effective in the short and long term.

Let's look at an example of IPM that may resonate with you. The dreaded tent caterpillar is a regular pest we deal with very often. When they are a problem, most of us do not notice there was a problem until the worms were

huge and causing major damage. Entire areas of trees were stripped of leaves. The caterpillars pupated and we saw huge populations of little brown moths.... the adult form of the larvae or caterpillar
