House fire not attributed to legal grow-op inside A kitchen fire sent a Lake Country man to hospital Feb. 24, and revealed a medical growoperation at the home.

Just before 10 a.m.

Friday, Lake Country Fire Department was dispatched to a residential fire on the 9700 block of Highway 97.

There was a report from neighbours of grey to brown smoke escaping from the attic.

The fire department

responded with a quick knock down to access the fire. Going through the home, the crew discover a 200-plant growop which turned out to be legal.

The fire apparently started in the kitchen and then spread throughout the interior of the home, said a police report. “There did appear to be issues with the wiring,� said LCFD as-

sistant chief Brent Penner, “however, this fire actually started on the stove with a frying pan left on the burner. The frying pan erupted with the heat.�

The man, 53, received little more than singed hair and he did not require medical attention.

A preliminary investigation showed that the marijuana growing inside the residence had the appropriate licences

The house has been deemed uninhabitable by the bylaw office due to the fire and effects of the indoor agriculture.

There was no indication that the fire was related to the operation of the grow op.

The federal government, through Health Canada, issues three kinds of medical marijuana licences—one for possession; one for production and a third one

for people designated to grow for medical pot users.

In order to be legally authorized to possess marijuana for medical purposes, a person must apply to Health Canada under the Marijuana Medical Access Regulations.

Grads shine in the fashion show

On February 22nd at the Creekside Theatre, the Grads had an amazing time strutting the latest fashions, intermixed with some creative skits and fashions from the past, (costumes provided

by Theatre Kelowna). With their unique personalities they brought these clothes to life. The Grads would like to

thank Fusion Hair Studios for their wonderful, stylish creations for all the ladies, as well as Sheila Thornton and Mylene Kilgour, from Mary Kay, and Crystal Badach, from Image Designs, for providing premium make-up services. The parents, staff, students and community of George Elliot all contrib-

uted to this fabulous event which generated over $5000 in revenue for the Grads and Marine Biology (which catered the event).

The Silent Auction was supported by stores all the way from Lake Country to Big White which were instrumental in providing beautiful, elegant prizes for

the event. The Rotary Club of Lake Country graciously provided their expertise and time to run this event. Also, the grads would like to thank the parents, staff, students and community of George Elliot. Contributions to this fabulous event generated over $5000 in revenue for the Grads and Marine Biology

(which catered the event).

The stores on display for the Fashion show were so generous and kind in lending us clothing and the Class of 2012 is greatly indebted to you for allowing us this opportunity to raise funds while having a fabulous time to on top of that. These stores included: Betty Lou Bou-

tique, Georgie’s Bridal, Rip Curl, Black and Lee, Island Snow, Seca Marine, Bliss Bridal Boutique, It Suits You, Ten Fashions, Boathouse, L’amore, Tip Top Tailors, Brosista, Mantique, Torino’s, Deviate, Warehouse 1, Far West, Melanie Lynn, West 49, George Richard’s, Moores, and Wild Mount-

Twice a year, English 8 and 9 classes clash in an epic literary battle. On January 12th, the Battle of the Books and the Spelling Bee were fought out in the Creekside Theatre, with victors emerging proud from the battlefield. The Battle of the Books is a crucial Literature Circle initiative that gets students to read far more than they otherwise would and receive the literary skills they need to succeed in higher Grades.

A project first brought to GESS by Deena Mcdell 5 years ago and recently revamped with new books and a new qualification format, the Battle of the Books is a 10 week process where each grade is given a choice of 8 books to read over that time span. If they read and study two books, they can earn a spot on the final battle team, providing they make it through the in-class round. These well read teams then face teams from other classes in the theatre to determine the ultimate victor, which is the team that can best combine the knowledge from all books.

A Spelling Bee is also an entertaining part of the event. PAC helps to fund the prizes along with the generous support of GESS administration. If anyone

in the community is willing to support the Battle of the Books also, any donations to help keep this program funded and running would be appreciated.

It was a record year with books flying off the shelf all semester. New interesting titles launched students to a total of 280 books in grade 8 and and 268 books in Grade 9, calculating out to an average of 2.7 books/student in Grade 8 and 3 books/ student in Grade 9. Eleven students reading all eight books. Ms. Leclair’s class edged out the other classes in both grades by the smallest of margins for the most books read, earning those classes a pizza party.

This year’s Grade 8 Battle of the Books winners were the team from Ms. Nicholson’s Grade 8 class of Jaide Hatfield, Katrina Wellborn, Jordan Taylor, Darcie Payne and the Grade 9 class winners were the team of Teya Rood, Tyson Meraw, Makena Geen, Dylan Gubler. Spelling Bee winners were both from Mr. Wardman’s Class: Grade 8 – Cassie Mackenzie and Grade 9 – Anika Gatzke. However, we strongly feel that prize or no prize, every child that reads is a winner.

You don’t have to be a millionaire to make a difference

Randi-Lynn & Sierra

Whenever we think about making a difference in this world often we think things like, “How can I be of much help” or “My little bit of money won’t make much difference, or “I don’t even know where to start”. Well these thoughts didn’t enter the heads of Sierra Sanchez-Dickie or Randi-Lynn Martin when they set out last month to make a change for some families in Africa.

As an optional extra credit assignment for Rec Leadership, a course that inspires and enhances student experiences and school culture and often creating change in the world abroad, these

two remarkable young ladies embarked upon a journey that would ultimately impact the lives of families in Africa.

Sierra and Randi, with the help of fellow student Brooklyn Frank, baked many goods and enlisted the help of others in the class to do the same. In two consecutive days of Cake Walks, they had raised over $110. Through World Vision, with $100 they could choose to buy a family a goat or 2 families 2 chickens and a rooster each.

To us that doesn’t sound like much, but to some family struggling in to make a living in Africa

this could mean the difference between life and death. Hens create more chickens as well as producing eggs and fertilizer, all of which can be used or sold, giving a family a steady income and the ability to provide for themselves.

These young ladies, in this relatively small, but heroic, act of generosity are giving a sustainable and prosperous lifestyle to others they don’t even know, and if that isn’t a hero, then I don’t know what is. And they challenge you to do the same this year, just one small gift to those that have so little, from those that are blessed with so much.

Big White firefighters camp out in battle to eradicate cancer

DOUG FARROW/CONTRIBUTOR

A HOUSE FIRE on Feb. 21 that gutted this house on Lodge Road in Lake Country started well before the fire department received the callout at 3:15 a.m. All occupants got out safely with no injuries.

â–ź FIRE

Lodge Road house gutted in the early Feb. 21 A house on Lodge Road in Lake Country was gutted by fire Tuesday, Feb. 21.

The fire was probably well underway before the 3:45 a.m. fire call came in to the Lake Country Fire Department.

When the fire crew arrived they found three vehicles in the driveway. Assist-

ant chief Brent Penner said the fire is believed to have started in the middle vehicle then travelled to the car port attached to the home.

The fire crew arrived at the home in primary search mode as the call indicated people were still in the home. However, all

occupants were accounted outside and the efforts shifted to saving as much of the contents of the basement as possible.

Despite water damage in the basement some articles were salvageable for the homeowners. “The structure was known to be insured,� said Penner.

The members of Big White Fire Department are asking for your help to fight cancer in their inaugural Firefighter Rooftop Campout.

As we are all touched by cancer in some way the fire fighters have devised a plan to raise money. Between March 9 and 11 they will take to the roof on top the Big White Ski Resort day care in the heart of the ski resort village to build awareness in the community.

The Big White firefighters will camp on the roof of the building, enduring below freezing temperatures, inclement weather and whatever else nature throws their way, to collect donations in support of the Canadian Cancer Society.

The Canadian Cancer Society is a national, community-based organization of volunteers whose mission is to eradicate cancer. Donations have funded more than $47 million in leading-edge research across the country.

As the largest national charitable funder of cancer research in Canada, the society is leading the way towards a common goal—creating a world where no one has to be

afraid of cancer.

Residents and families are encouraged to visit the firefighters and support the cause. Hot chocolate, music, fire trucks and special guests will be on scene for all to enjoy.

Donations can be made a number of ways: • At the BWFD Campout in the Big White village where firefighters will lower a boot from the roof for people to drop in their donations • At the Big White fire department, 7555 Porcupine Road • online at www.cancerevents.ca. Click Search Events and enter the event name: BWFD Rooftop Campout.

Highlights for the fundraiser include: • Friday March 9, 8 a.m., kick-off breakfast • Saturday March 10 noon BBQ lunch • Sunday March 11 Event wrap-up with a pancake breakfast The money raised by the Big White Fire Department Rooftop Campout will be donated to improve the quality of life for people living with cancer and one-day lead to a cure. Visit Big White Ski Resort and show your support.

â–ź RECYCLING

Throwing the wrong things into recycling bins could get expensive Lake Country District Council finalizing bylaw allowing fines to be imposed BOBBI-SUE MENARD Be careful what you place in your recycling bin is the message from Lake Country District Council.

At the council meeting last week, councillors voted in favour of bylaws that will bring the district in line with other

regional municipalities in regards to what can be recycled in the residential curbside waste program.

Once final reading of the bylaw has passed council, fines will be possible for people who try to recycle items that cannot be safely accepted by the system.

Come & see PVS GSJFOEMZ QIBSNBDZ TUBGG

They can help you transfer your prescriptions quick & easy!

Certain types of items including glass, uncleaned food containers and styrofoam contaminate the recycling received at the regional station. That means the quality of the recycling is diminished and it costs more to process the materials in staff time at the depot. It also means less

material is available to be sold in the recycling market place.

Councillors Penny Gambell and Barbara Leamont were concerned that residents might not know which materials were banned from recycling. This was the first year the waste calendars/information

booklets were not distributed to all residents in the Central Okanagan, in a bid to cut costs.

The booklets are available at the District of Lake Country offices for residents who prefer to have a printed copy. A complete listing of materials not suitable for recycling can be found on

the Regional District of Central Okanagan website, www.lakecountry. bc.ca.

Several solutions to get the message out to residents were brought up in council discussion, including having CORD staff attend meet and greet sessions to explain what is allowed to be re-

cycled.

There is still no waste solution for batteries and chemicals in Lake Country, and currently such items must be taken into The Battery Doctor in Kelowna.

The possibility of future toxic household waste round-ups was discussed.

Waving red flag over smart meters for hydro use

Our offices are located on Beaver Lake Road beside Western Library Services.

To the editor: Your health, wealth and security is being degraded by the B.C. Liberals.

Please folks, become aware of the real serious health risks that smart meters pose. B.C. Hydro is flat out lying about the level of microwave emissions that each smart meter and each collector emits.

Simply do a Youtube search for “smart meters radiation” and you will see actual footage taken by those with the appropriate equipment to read radiation.

Here is a website so you get the facts. http:// citizensforsafetechnology.org/.

Remember the HST? Please do your own homework on another B.C. Liberal debacle.

▼ B.C. LEGISLATURE

Taxing times are here for B.C. government B efore this week’s budget debate is drowned out by the shouting over the teachers’ dispute, here’s a look at the main points and the arguments unfolding around them.

The setting for Finance Minister Kevin Falcon’s first budget is what he dreaded when Premier Christy Clark handed him the job.

Recovery is painfully slow, with mining and petroleum growing and forest products struggling to hold and build on gains made in Asia.

This and the $3-billion dismantling of the harmonized sales tax moved Falcon to limit overall spending growth to an average of two per cent for the next three years. That means little or no increase to all areas except health care, education and social assistance.

Despite holding the line on public service pay and not replacing

BC Views

Tom Fletcher 2,000 positions over the next three years, Clark and Falcon had to postpone the elimination of the 2.5-per-cent small business income tax to get to a balanced budget by 2013. And Falcon has again dangled the prospect of raising general corporate income tax from 10 to 11 per cent, but not until 2014.

Business experts applauded the hard line on spending, noting the contrast with Alberta’s big spending and Ontario’s big spending hangover.

NDP finance crit-

ic Bruce Ralston says Falcon’s two-per-cent spending target is “unrealistic,” and the whole program is motivated mostly by two byelections this year and a general election next year.

He said the proposal to raise general business taxes is a repeat of his effort to save the HST, and it won’t happen if the B.C. Liberals win in 2013.

B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins made the bizarre claim that it’s an NDP-style “tax and spend” budget, and inaccurately accused Falcon of raising taxes on small business. He also joined the NDP chorus of outrage over ICBC, BC Hydro and medical premium increases.

Some other hot topics in the budget: • Selling assets. The big one here is B.C.’s liquor wholesaling monopoly, run out of warehouses in Kamloops and Vancouver. Falcon insists the private sector does

this kind of work more efficiently, and union contracts will be protected in a bidding process. The NDP argues that selling off a monopoly puts this government cash cow at risk, and points to private retail stores with higher prices and lower wages.

The proposed sale of 100 surplus Crown properties has raised cries of “selling the silverware to buy groceries.” But land sales are nothing new for governments and Falcon prefers that to raising taxes.

• Carbon tax. The last scheduled increase goes ahead in July, adding another penny on a litre of gasoline, followed by a freeze and review of the whole climate program.

Ralston says the climate plan is “in tatters,” along with dozens of other policy areas that are also under review after 11 years of B.C. Liberal rule.

NDP leader Adrian Dix vows to keep

the carbon tax and its offsetting personal income tax cuts, direct carbon tax revenues to transit and rural energy-saving retrofits, and hike the general corporate tax rate from 10 to 12 per cent to pay for it.

• HST. Asked what he would have done as finance minister, Ralston suggested getting rid of the HST sooner. Dix continues to misrepresent the HST as solely a transfer to big business, ignoring the small and medium-sized businesses that have a year left to take advantage of input tax credits.

Simon Fraser University economist Jon Kesselman has estimated that poor people will be worse off when the HST ends, while the rest of us will see a very small net benefit.

than 100 times wholebody radiation than a cell phone and they have been measured to be constantly bursting every few seconds, both contrary to Hydro’s propaganda.

There are plans to “bank” smart meters 20 to 30 or more together in residential buildings with citizens on the other side of the wall. My fear is for the babies and kids and the “bursting” characteristic of a bank of these things will force folks to abandon their home to protect their family and themselves.

Many also note that a UBCM motion passed by those present in September 2011, to put a moratorium against the installation of smart me- w ters was ignored by Rich Coleman who is on record as stating he does not SEE SMART METERS A5

Harper targets seniors We the people, have the power to make sure our government does not pass laws that stomp on the aging, and the power to make sure you as a government do not pass laws such as to legalize drugs and take away our pensions.

Tell me Prime Minister Harper, when your judgement day comes and God asks you what you have done for your fellow man, what will you tell him? Will you tell him that you did your very best to help all of mankind, regardless of age and ability, rich or poor? Or will you tell him that you built your own little kingdom regardless of who you had to step on to build it.

The Law of Diminishing Returns applies to eradicating polio

W

hen I was young, we had TB chest X-rays every year. I had regular smallpox vaccinations—I can’t remember how often. When I travelled overseas, I had to carry a little yellow book detailing my vaccinations and immunizations.

No immigration official has asked for that book in a dozen years.

I haven’t had a TB test since the 1960s. And smallpox doesn’t exist anywhere on the planet any more.

That’s how far we have come in eliminating diseases that used to kill millions.

We’re “that close� to doing the same with polio—ads on TV show people holding thumband-finger a fraction apart.

Polio was a child killer in my childhood. I remember seeing victims struggling with crutch-

Life and Faith

Jim Taylor es and braces and wheelchairs. On one occasion, our class visited a girl living in an iron lung. For weeks, I had nightmares about being imprisoned in a great wheezing cylinder.

Memory has mercifully blotted out any recollection of those who didn’t survive polio.

Thanks to the efforts of international aid agencies, especially Rotary International, polio now exists only in three countries world-wide:

Pension cuts pending To the editor: The Harper government can find money for F35 jets, prisons, corporate tax cuts, yet they draw the line at finding money to provide pensions to the poorest seniors.

The OAS pension was never meant to be self-sustaining, it has always been funded by general revenue.

Also, no one is say-

ing it will affect seniors currently receiving pensions, but if it’s not OK to cut pensions now, why would it be OK in 20202030.

It may not seem like much to a healthy senior with a decent paying, low stress job to work another two years, but it is a severe hardship on many others.

To the editor: Where has my Canada gone? I am a 63-year-old Canadian citizen, born and raised in Canada, as were my parents and my grandparents.

I always admired my grandparents. They worked so hard to put food on the table and a roof over their children’s theads.

They both had orchards in Osoyoos, and were very proud to be Canadians. I wonder what they would say about being Canadians now?

We now live in a country where the aged are considered liabilities and not worth spending money on for decent health care—cast aside like rotten pieces of meat.

And to add insulate to injury our prime minister is talking about taking away our pension.

Shame on you, Stephen Harper.

Just what do you think the senior citizens of this great country are to live on once their working days are done? These are the people that helped this country into what it was. I say was because, sadly, I no longer feel it is a great country.

We have a prime minister who is bent on building his own little kingdom, at the expense of others. To this I say it’s on the backs of others that great nations are built and torn down.

We the people, have the power to make or break the prime minister—it’s called the pen, and it truly is mightier than the sword.

The right to vote is a very powerful tool.

Run to finish line longest mile over the floors is relatively easy; getting into all the corners takes longer.

Pulling big weeds is easy; uprooting every tiny seedling takes forever.

It’s sometimes said that 20 per cent of the people in community organizations do 80 per cent of the work. And vice versa.

Whatever the statistical validity of that saying, I’ve found that a similar principle applies to editing projects.

If a manuscript will require 100 hours of work, I can make an 80 per cent improvement in 20 hours. But fixing that last 20 per cent—chasing down every quotation, testing every numeric table, reconsidering every word choice, correcting every flaw in logic, and then negotiating all these amendments with an obstinate author—will require at least another 80

hours.

That’s the problem facing polio eradication.

You and I can’t go to India or Nigeria to administer those life-saving drops. But we can help.

Prayers, moral support, letters to national leaders and financial donations all bring success a fraction closer.

Working together, we wiped out smallpox. Working together, we controlled TB— at least in developed areas. Working together, we can eliminate polio too—“if,� as Microsoft’s Bill Gates says, “we have the fortitude to see this effort through to the end.�

The final kick to the finish line always demands the most energy.

It’s really tough supporting B.C. Hydro and the Liberal party when they both present themselves as a manure salesman with a mouth full of samples.

There is no financial benefits that smart meters will deliver to the users when you factor in that these meters will cost us $930 million up front.

They will not reduce usage, will not lower costs.

Hydro rates will increase at a rate that adds to the woes of those living in poverty now and don’t forget they will be monitoring and spying on you.

Post a sign on your analog meter stating you do not accept a smart meter or send B.C. Hydro a registered letter to that effect. ‘Try living off the grid or go along with us.’ That’s the message the Liberals are sending us.

Police are urging local businesses to beware a new scam in the Okanagan.

Apparently, there is a woman attending local clothing stores claiming

that she is doing sponsored events for SUN FM radio station.

The woman requests outfits to promote the store at these events but then never returns with

the clothing.

The woman is described to be in her late 20s, 5-foot 4-inches in height with light medium-length brown hair, brown eyes and

dark complexion.

If approached in a similar fashion, the police recommend that you: • Obtain identification from the person • Confirm their identity

with the company that the person claims to represent • Obtain a credit card authorization in the event the items are not returned.

Grow-op crimes up in 2011, while other crimes down The 2011 fourth quarter crime stats report was presented by Lake Country Detachment RCMP Sgt. Scott Rempel, at the District of Lake Country Council regular meeting.

The big news in the report was the spike in grow-op busts in the dis-

trict while many other indicators were either flat or falling.

Crime statistics for 2011 in Lake Country show an increase of 26 per cent over 2010.

Grow-op busts increased both in number of seizures and total number of plants. There were 8,491

marijuana plants taken down in 2011 from diverse neighborhoods across the district including Lake Hill Drive, Powley Court, Okanagan Centre Road east, and Bond Road.

The Bond Road operation saw 4,600 plants and seven pounds of ma-

rijuana and equipment seized.

The next largest plant count was on Santina Road with 1,185 plants seized while a separate bust on Okanagan Centre Road West removed 16 pounds of marijuana.

“It was a busy year for marijuana grow-ops,”

Rempel remarked. The increase in charges being laid reflected an increase in attention being paid to the issue by the detachment.

Certain numbers dropped in the last quarter of 2011 including traffic accidents, 29 occurred in 2011, down substantially from 59 crashes in the same period 2010.

If you were stopped for a moving vehicle infraction in Lake Country in the same period you had a roughly 50/50 chance of getting a warning; 181 violation tickets were issued and 182 traffic notices (warnings) were made.

Rempel said this reflects a solid use of discretion on the part of traffic enforcement.

Crimes against persons during the quarter included one robbery, 20 assaults and 13 domestic assaults.

Property crime stats were 12 break and enters, seven motor vehicle thefts and 34 thefts of goods valued under $5,000.

Dance school 10 years strong BOBBI-SUE MENARD It is a milestone year for DreaMotion Dance.

Their 10th anniversary recital will be held at the Creekside Theatre Saturday March 3 at 6 p.m.

Petrina Koltun operates DreaMortion out of the Winfield Memorial Hall. Approximately 100 children of all ages plus some adults attend classes and almost all of the students will be at the recital.

The recital will have children as young as two up on stage, with many older children showing off their jazz, tap, ballet, hip hop, contemporary, lyrical and break dance moves. “I have 30

EVEN the two-year-olds will get the chance to perform on stage when DreaMotion Dance gives its 10th anniversary recital March 3 at Creekside Theatre. little boys, ages four to 12, all in different classes who break dance,” says Koltun.

There is a new program called rock band at DreaMotion and five rock bands with members aged four to 13 will take to the boards to

show off their stuff at the recital. DreaMotion teamed up with the Kelowna Rock School to have classes, and it has been huge success.

DreaMotion is a bustling school says Koltun.

“I have both rooms running at the Memorial

Hall. We love the Memorial Hall, it has the old original hardwood which is the best for teaching dance.”

This recital is also in support of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. “We’re supporting a little girl, Elise Bois-

vert, who is very ill in our community, with all dancers singing with her, the song, I Have a Dream,” Koltun says. “When the kids all sing we want to bring awareness to the children to have compassion for children and families who are going

through tough times and need love and support.”

The recital usually comes close to selling out each year. Koltun says the event always proves to be popular. “I have been reserving tickets for people, and it is very good to call ahead. I am

a full-time realtor, but I run the dance school because I love dance and I love the music, and I want to pass that on to the community and my own children.”

Tickets can be reserved by contacting Koltun at 250-766-1000.

news â–ź EDUCATION

Vedanta Academy rebrands itself to incorporate arts throughout its programs Vedanta Academy has rebranded itself as Studio 9 Independent School of the Arts.

The newly launched theme of the school is Imagination. The kindergarten to Grade 12 independent school is located on Houghton Road in the Rutland area of Kelowna.

In a press release the school says: “we seek students and parents who want an arts based academic school where imagination, creativity, wonder and achievement are alive every day.

Nothing great has ever happened without imagination, dreams and action. We want to fuel that in every child. “We want to help each child reach their highest level artistically and academically. We

want our students to have all their choices after school, to pursue their passions whatever their post secondary dreams might be.�

It goes on to say that Studio 9 is founded on the belief that the arts are as important as any other school program such as athletics or languages. “We believe the arts are a huge source of education energy, creativity and personal expression, as well as a mirror of our times, society and culture. Visionaries such as Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, John Lennon, Steven Speilberg and others have all saluted the arts as the creative juice fueling everything from science to technology to invention.�

Studio 9 is the only dedicated school of the arts in the B.C. Interior and vows to continue to be dynamic and forward thinking to meet the artistic needs and desires of current and new students as well as meet their academic needs. “We will continue to graduate students who are ready to take on their next challenge after school whether that is in the arts, in university, in technical careers or any other direction they wish to go.�

The school has already graduated seven classes with a 99 per cent graduation rate—80 per cent attaining honours certificates. “The combination of academics, the arts

and the STRIVE personal development program has produced excellent results so far. We intend on seeing that improve even more.�

Studio 9 teaches pre-school through to Grade 12. Having the arts as a priority will inspire creativity and bring academic projects to life on paper, in video, in dance or in music.

Students will meet academic outcomes with projects rather than just textbooks and tests.

The school says learning needs to come alive to be lasting and its students will learn how to apply knowledge, not just store it!

Studio 9 Independent School of the Arts is at, 1180 Houghton Rd. in Kelowna. Call 250-868-8816 or visit www.studio9.ca.

entertainment ▼ MOVIE REVIEWS

Get word of mouth working for local Jim Cliffe’s movie, Donovan’s Echo DONOVAN’S ECHO Kudos to the team of Jim Cliffe, Melodie Kreiger and the cast who brought to Kelowna the premiere of the movie Donovan’s Echo, starring Danny Glover.

Glover, who plays Donovan Matheson in the film, has been in movies for a while as an actor and producer, starring in films such as the Lethal Weapon franchise and recently, Dreamgirls.

In this film, Donovan returns to his hometown after an absence of 30 years. His life went off the rails when his cold fusion theory was debunked and a family tragedy forced him to take a look at this life. Coming home to act on his premonitions hoping to right some wrongs and to change the course of the lives of another family gives us a good story, acted well.

While this film was low budget—no car chases, no special effects and shooting was done in 20 days of shooting five pages of script per day (the norm in the big budget flics is one page per day)—it’s still a movie worth watching. It’s a

The second show I went to this weekend was Gone.

What, really, can I say about this thriller, except that the good news is that this show will be ‘gone’ in a couple of weeks, with any luck and the big thrill was that it was less than two hours in length.

There is absolutely no character development in this show. We know that the main character, Jill Conrad (Amanda Seyfried), was a kidnap vic-

This low budget film (yeah, it did have one car chase) was one of those shows you hope will get better as it goes along and you stay, hoping that something will redeem it so that it’s not a big waste of time.

Well, sorry, but it is a big waste of time and it doesn’t get better.

Again, here’s a few things to consider if you think your life is in danger: • Don’t get on the

Rim bicycle rental and bike-tour operation is expected to open, a multiuse trail is expected to be finished and more.

Grand Canyon National Park, the five-million or six-million-yearold granddaddy of Ari-

zona tourism, logged 4.3 million visitors last year.

Rangers say that’s a dip of 3.7 per cent from the year before, but the canyon remains among the nation’s most visited parks. And despite its age (also a ranger es-

timate), it does keep changing.

Visitors to the South Rim—by far the park’s most heavily trafficked area—will find six recently installed waterbottle refilling stations near major trail heads.

(There are three more

on the North Rim.) The stations are designed to improve hikers’ access to free water and boost reuse of bottles.

Park officials have estimated that disposable water bottles make up as much as 30 per cent of the park’s solid waste.

• Also due this year: completion of an eightmile multiuse trail that connects the South Rim visitor center with the gateway town of Tusayan.

• The park’s Bright Angel Lodge & Cabins has moved and returned the South Rim’s oldest building to service as a two-room cabin.

mid-October. For info: grandcanyonlodgenorth. com/ • Twenty-one visitors died in the park last year from causes that include heart attack, suicide, falls, lightning strike, boating accident, RV fire and hypothermia/dehydration, a park spokeswoman said. In late April, a 21-year-old man accidentally drove his vehicle over the canyon rim—and survived.

The driver crawled up to safety; rangers said they

found the vehicle lodged against a tree 200 feet beneath the rim.

Then there’s the Hualapai Tribe’s Grand Canyon West operation, two and a half hours’ drive from Las Vegas and five hours from the South Rim. The Hualapai’s 5-year-old Grand Canyon Skywalk, a glassfloored horseshoeshaped walkway, allows visitors to look straight down to the red rock gorge 4,000 feet below.

The tribe also offers Colorado River rafting day trips and pontoon boat rides, helicopter rides, horseback rides, lodging, dining and a faux Old West town for kids near the canyon’s edge, along with more lodging on tribal land along Route 66 at Peach Springs.

The minimum cost to walk the Skywalk is $76.10 under the tribe’s complex ticketing system. More info: www. grandcanyonwest.com.

PATRICK MICHAEL FEIST March 24, 1964 – February 16, 2012 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Patrick Michael Feist. After a long and courageous battle with cancer Pat passed away peacefully in Vietnam, the country that was very dear to his heart. It was in Vietnam that Pat met and fell in love with the woman that would become his wife, Niem Tran. Pat is survived by his loving wife Niem and their son Tai. Pat will be greatly missed by his brothers Ken Feist, Bill Feist (Patty), his sisters Carol Bennett (Ted), Cathy Puszkar (Zen), Sue Feist, Tami Spencer (Clay), his many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins, as well as his extended family in Vietnam. Pat was predeceased by his parents Frank and Patricia Feist, as well as his niece Jennifer Evans. Pat, Niem and Tai shared a wonderful life together in Winfield, where they own and operate Mama Shpengi’s restaurant. Together they would happily tend to their loyal customers. In the hearts of Pat and Niem, these people had long since made the transition from customer to friend. Anyone that ever visited Mama Sphengi’s will remember being greeted with Pat’s wonderful warm smile and gentle voice. While we will miss you beyond words Pat, we are all blessed for having had you in our lives. A celebration of Pat’s life will be held at Mama Sphengi’s on Sunday, March 4th, from noon to four pm. The family welcomes friends and customers to come and join us in celebrating the life of a truly kind soul

HOPE for TOMORROW Why would anyone purchase or obtain a book, especially a book that has been on the best seller’s list for years and sells some twenty million copies each year. Why would one possess such a book and not read it?

According to recent statistics 92% of American and Canadian households have at least one copy of this book, (many have an average of three,) but only 59% of those owners have read this book, and many only occasionally. Of those who have read it, 67% claim that it holds the answers to the basic questions of life, those questions that many are looking for the answers to, today.

Legal Notices NOTICE is Hereby Given that Creditors and others, having claims against the Estate of Ryan Dergen Lanctot (Deceased), formerly of #30 10230 Bottom Wood Lake Rd. Lake Country BC V4V1E4, are hereby required to send the particulars thereof to the undersigned Executor, c/o Duane Lanctot 2681 273 St. Aldergrove BC V4W3K2 on or before March 31 2012, after which date the estate’s assets will be distributed, having regard only to the claims that have been received. Duane Lanctot, Executor.

This book has been an excellent source of recorded human history. It has been the source of strength and guidance for many of our great men and women.

Yet, the few that do read it, say that they do not understand it, and even fewer have actually studied this book.

The eyes have it Fetch a Friend from the SPCA today! spca.bc.ca

Of course we are referring to the “Holy Bibleâ€? and if you have experienced similar difďŹ culties in not understanding the Bible, we have good news for you.

Starting March 9th a free seminar will be conducted at the Seventh-day Adventist Church on Bottom Wood Lake Road by Pastor and educator Jim Weir.

Pastor Weir has traveled and spoken in the Ukraine and the Philippines, teaching the relevance of Biblical principles in a world of trouble and unrest.

Watch for additional information coming to you in the mail and please plan to attend these interesting and informative talks.

CURB STOP LOCATE NOTICE Over the next few weeks the District of Lake Country Water Operations Department will be in the process of locating water shut-offs to properties connected to the District’s water system. The District would like to remind residents that the water shut-offs are located within the District’s Right-OfWay and during this process, if needed, we may need to clear away shrubs or trees that may be impeding access to the shut-off.

This work will benefit the property owner as it will allow District Staff quicker response time to any water leaks that may occur on or off your property. Should you have further questions, please call the Engineering Department at 250-766-6677.

BUDGET MEETING HIGHLIGHTS Council began their budget deliberations on Feb 15th at a Special Council meeting where they heard a budget presentation from the Chief Administrator Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The budget process is based on Council’s Strategic Priorities which were set in December 2011, immediately after the new Council’s election.

The presentation set the stage for Council’s main deliberations in March and included 7 potential options for Council’s consideration. Council was asked to provide direction on their preferred option, or version thereof, in order for staff to finalize the budget package for the next budget meeting.

Option Property Tax Increase Water Fee Increase Option 1 0% Option 2 0% Option 3 0% Option 4 0% Option 5 1.7% - Inflation Increase Option 6 4% - Planned Increase Option 7 2% - Inflation Increase Plus * Water Master Plan

$0 Inflationary Increase: $20 (WMP Long Term Incr.: $50 WMP Full Increase: $114 Inflation Increase: $20 Inflation Increase: $20 WMP Long Term Incr.: $50

Last year the portion of total property taxes received by the municipality was 52%. For every $100 in property taxes, only $52 is allocated towards municipal services provided by the District. The remaining property taxes are split among Provincial School taxes (33%), Regional District (6%), Regional Hospital (5%), Regional Library (3%) and BC Assessment (1%). The average Lake Country Property Tax Rate increase over the past 5 years is 3.88% Council’s initial budget deliberations included discussion on the economic decline, the decrease in 2011 revenues, the levels of service Council wants to provide, infrastructure management, constraints and economic diversity specific to Lake Country, the need for more conservative fees and charges forecasting and Lake Country’s historical tax increases.

Staff recommended Option 7 along with no increase in environmental levies, sewer fees or garbage fees. Council identified their preferred options and variations thereto: Option Property Tax Increase Water Fee Increase Option 3 Option 5 Option 7 Option 8 Option 9

0% 1.7% - Inflation Increase 2% - Inflation Increase Plus 1.7% - Inflation Increase 3% - Inflation increase Plus
