B.C. pushes school calendar change Tom Fletcher Black Press School districts will be able to determine their own calendar and offer online classes to students in any grade under amendments to the School Act presented Thursday. Education Minister George Abbott said the changes are designed to increase flexibility for schools and students. The ministry will continue to require a minimum number of instructional hours, but

school boards will be able to design their own calendars. Abbott said the standard school calendar is a relic of an agrarian society where children did farm work in summer. A two-month summer break can result in setbacks for student learning, especially those who are struggling to keep up, he said. Abbott cited Kanaka Creek elementary school in Maple Ridge, which uses a modified calendar with shorter breaks through the year instead of the standard Sep-

tember-to-June model. That has been popular with students, parents and teachers, and academic results have been encouraging, Abbott said. “What we now have is a pretty strong case that children learn better when they don’t have a long summer break, that a shorter period when they’re away from school is better,” Abbott said. Online courses are currently only allowed for grades nine and up. The amendments allow the option for any course in elementary

or middle school. Abbott said that change is not designed to encourage home schooling, but rather to offer options to students that aren’t available in smaller schools. Online learning has taken off in B.C., from 5,000 students using it five years ago to about 30,000 today, he said. School districts will have to holds consultations with the public and staff before changing the school calendar, and the ministry has to approve changes before they can take effect.

B.C. Liberals try election gag law again Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government is attempting to restore limits on third-party election spending that were struck down by a judge before the 2009 vote. Attorney General Shirley Bond has introduced amendments that would put limits on spending by unions, business groups and other non-party advertisers in the 40 days before the official start of an election campaign. A previous 60-day limit was challenged by seven public sector unions, led by the B.C. Teachers’ Federation, and rejected by a B.C. Supreme Court judge as an unjustified restriction on freedom of speech. Premier Christy Clark said some spending limit on the pre-campaign period is justified, since the province went to scheduled elections in 2005. Current rules restrict party and nonparty spending during a formal 28-day election campaign, but contain no limits on spending before that period. The government intends to submit the proposed 40-day restriction to the B.C. Supreme Court before it takes effect. If a judge approves, the new restrictions would apply for the election set for May of 2013. NDP justice critic Leonard Krog said the latest effort will likely be challenged again and rejected again. If the B.C. Liberals want to reform election spending, they should ban corporate and union donations to political parties as the

NDP and B.C. Conservative parties have advocated, Krog said. In 2008, the B.C. Lib-

eral government passed amendments to the B.C. Elections Act limiting spending by non-par-

ty advocacy groups to no more than $150,000 in the 60 days before the official 28-day election

campaign. Registered political parties were restricted to spending $2.2 million during that time.

Pay it forward, Hansen tells MLAs Tom Fletcher Black Press Wheelchair ambassador Rick Hansen visited the B.C. legislature Monday as part of his province-wide relay marking 25 years since the completion of his Man in Motion world tour. Hansen presented â&#x20AC;&#x153;difference makerâ&#x20AC;? medals to MLAs, spoke to a reception and then was invited to make a speech to the legislature. The medals represent gratitude, celebration and inspiration for those who have helped

their communities, Hansen told MLAs, explaining what that meant to him once his 40,000-km wheelchair journey was completed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To be a young kid from Williams Lake and to be inspired to pay it forward,â&#x20AC;? Hansen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To move from a period and a place of despair and to see possibilities and know that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to get there on the backs of this province, family friends, community. A healthy and inclusive place where a kid can overcome adversity and then be in-

spired to wing around the world.â&#x20AC;? Hansen began his 25th anniversary relay in Newfoundland last summer. The relay entered B.C. on March 19 and is passing through 127 communities before concluding in downtown Vancouver on May 22. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To come back 25 years later and to see the kind of response that still is there, and the progress thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been made on the part of local champions and difference makers who have really made that possible, those are emotional moments

and truly inspiring,â&#x20AC;? Hansen said. Hansen began his Man in Motion World

Tour in March 1985, visiting 34 countries and raising $26 million for spinal cord re-

search. Since 1988, the Rick Hansen Foundation has leveraged that initial effort to $252

million invested in research, accessibility projects and qualityof-life initiatives.

Dump carbon tax, B.C. Liberal says Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government should quit pretending it can influence global climate and scrap the carbon tax on fossil fuels as soon as possible, Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett said Monday. Bennett called for the move in debate of an

NDP motion to relieve hospitals, colleges and universities of the obligation to purchase carbon offsets for their fuel use. The B.C. Liberal government has already offered rebates to the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 60 public school districts to offset their mandatory payments this year, while it reviews the carbon tax program.

Bennett, a former B.C. Liberal energy minister, clarified that he was expressing his own opinion, and not attempting to speak for the government or party. He said it would take time to phase the carbon tax out, and there would be costs associated with the income tax cuts that have been phased in at

the same time to keep it revenue neutral to the government. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, I would go a little further and say that the whole policy regime thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s based on the notion that the B.C. government can do something about the amount of human-caused carbon dioxide going into the atmosphere should be

rethought â&#x20AC;&#x201C; again, in my opinion,â&#x20AC;? Bennett told the legislature. He said Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s carbon emissions represent two per cent of all human sources, and B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emissions are roughly one tenth of that. NDP environment critic Rob Fleming began the debate arguing that colleges, universities and

The government has committed to one more increase in the carbon tax on July 1, which will add about a cent to the 5.56-cent tax on a litre of gasoline.

Cranberries contain compounds which prevent bacteria from attaching to the line of the urinary tract. Cranberry juice does reduce the risk of recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs). If you are troubled by these infections, try a daily glass of cranberry juice. It just might help. If all else fails, low-dose antibiotics do work for prevention of UTIs.

IFBMUI NJOE CPEZ Unplug your kids and get talking Today’s children have access to a seemingly endless supply of communication gadgets — computers, tablets, video games, Smartphones and interactive toys. Despite the increasing availability of these communication tools, children’s communication skills are on the decline. May is Speech and Hearing Month and Interior Health wants to remind everyone about the important role speech, language, and hearing play in a child’s early development. Hearing, speech and language all play crucial roles in children’s social

and emotional development, as well as their ability to learn. Toddlers and preschoolers with speech or language problems often have difficulty playing with others and managing their own emotions. They are vulnerable to mental health disorders when they get older, and are at a greater risk for school drop-out as teens. Recent statistics from the University of British Columbia’s Human Early Learning Partnership show that fewer B.C. children are reaching kindergarten with appropriate social competence and emotional maturity

when compared to children 10 years ago. “The first few years of a child’s life are a critical time, long before they begin school,” said Kingsley Bower, practice consultant with Interior Health’s Speech and Language program. “Children’s readiness for speech and language development is greatest between the ages of 12 months and four years. This is an important time to stimulate communication skills and to get help for any delays.” When it comes to teaching language skills, face-to-face contact wins hands-down over expensive electronics

and teaching tools. Babies and young children respond best to live human voices. “Children learn communication skills by listening to words and the tone of your voice, and also by watching the expressions on your face when you speak,” Bower said. “Tablets and computers are amazing these days but machines don’t care about sharing, or hitting and screaming, so they don’t teach children how to keep friends.” Parents should trust their instincts if they are concerned whether their child’s speech, language and hearing are develop-

Get vaccinated for measles Before travelling ensure your measles vaccination is up to date. The BC Centre for Disease Control is advising travelers destined for many parts of the world including Europe and the Summer Olympic Games in London to ensure that their measles vaccination is up to date. Measles has been on the rise in many regions of the world in the last few years, including in Europe. In 2011, multiple importations of measles

from Europe resulted in an outbreak of almost 800 cases in Quebec. In 2010, B.C. had an outbreak of about 80 cases following three separate importations, two of which were linked to the Winter Olympic Games. For children and adults born after 1956, two doses of measles-containing vaccine are recommended. The Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR) vaccine is available at no charge for anyone who was born after 1956 and

does not have a record of receiving two doses. The MMR vaccine is given to children in B.C. as part of their routine immunizations at 12 months of age and in kindergarten. Children traveling to parts of the world where measles is common should receive these doses prior to travel. Speak with your family doctor or public health nurse to arrange vaccination. Consult your health care provider preferably

six weeks before you travel. Measles is a very contagious infection that causes a rash all over your body. Measles is spread when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or shares food or drinks. The measles virus can travel through the air. This means that you can get measles if you are near someone who has the virus even if that person doesn’t cough or sneeze directly on you.

The City of Williams Lake Water Division will be cleaning and flushing reservoirs and water mains starting May 7th, 2012 for approximately a four week period. The areas that will be affected are: All homes north of Western Avenue, Midnight Drive north from Moxon Place, Moon Avenue, north ends of Smith Street and Pigeon Avenue, north 4th, Haddock and Boitanio Streets, Hubble and Toop Road area to Centennial Drive. As residents may experience a slight discolouration of their tap water, running a tap for a short period of time will clear this up. All inquiries can be directed to the City of Williams Lake Water and Waste Division at 392-1785. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.

Approximately 600 elementary and secondary students participated in activities at the Gibraltar Room April 26 and 27 as part of Victims Awareness/Anti Bullying Week. In this exercise First Nations presenter Adrian LaChance talked about his culture and asked the students to close their eyes for a song, which he said would make them fall in love with him if they watched him sing it. The events were presented by School District 27 and the Punky Lake Wilderness Camp Society and other partners. Information was provided on bullying and cyber bullying, and gang awareness. There were also games, collage building and snacks from different cultures provided. Gaeil Farrar photo

B.C. eyes motorcycle power limits Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government has followed through on its promise to regulate motorcycle helmets, with restrictions on the horsepower available to new riders coming in the next year. Justice Minister Shirley Bond announced Monday that the new helmet regulation takes effect June 1, requiring riders to wear helmets that meet Canadian and

international safety standards. Many of the minimal-coverage “beanie” helmets favoured by macho bikers will soon be eligible for a $138 ticket. Regulations will also require passengers to have their feet on foot pegs or floorboards while riding. Children who can’t reach the foot pegs will no longer be allowed as passengers, and drivers will be subject to tickets for that as well. Bond said restrictions will be developed by

next spring that will set a limit on the horsepower of motorcycles used by new riders. The new rule will be an extension of the graduated licence restrictions for all new drivers. The power restrictions were sought by Denise Lodge, who began lobbying for changes after her son Corey died in a crash in 2005. His accident on Highway 1 on Vancouver Island came the day after getting a learner’s permit and buying a modified,

high-speed motorcycle. “I kept saying, if only he didn’t have such a powerful bike,” said Lodge, struggling to maintain her composure as she spoke at a news conference in Victoria. “If he only had the training. If only he had experience.” Lodge soon learned of motorcycle power restrictions in place in European countries, and began seeking similar regulations for B.C. Bond said she plans

to have consultations on power limits complete by this fall, and new rules in place before motorcycle riding season next year. Creeksyde Farms Greenhouses 134 Mile

Forest jobs won’t wait for 2013 S

awmill tragedies in Prince George and Burns Lake have brought overdue attention to the larger crisis, as the end of B.C.’s latest pine beetle infestation continues to transform the Interior forest industry. The urgency of the timber supply situation was set out in a couple of high-level documents that were leaked from the forests ministry in recent days. These leaks show several things, one of which is that this is a government in trouble. Someone on the inside forced the unpopular options into the public arena. Cabinet ministers have tried to dismiss the documents as early drafts, but no one has disputed their numbers. A report on mid-term timber supply looks at the four most beetle-affected areas: Prince George, Lakes (west of Prince George around Burns Lake), Quesnel and Williams Lake. In recent years B.C.’s chief forester has increased the annual allowable cut of all these timber supply areas substantially to harvest dead trees. In Lakes, the pre-beetle annual allowable cut was 1.5 million cubic metres. Currently it is up to two million, but once the beetle wood is unusable, it drops to 500,000. Even if visual quality rules are relaxed to

B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER

release more timber, forest employment in the area would go from 1,572 jobs before the beetle epidemic to 521. Prince George’s much larger harvest total is expected to drop by almost half. And around Quesnel, producers say an economic supply of dead pine will be there for only another year and a half. This document and a subsequent proposal to cabinet set out the options. They include relaxing visual quality areas, old-growth management zones and wildlife connectivity corridors. This is not as drastic as it sounds, given that the first areas to be opened up would be those where many of the trees are already dead. Most beetle-affected areas have a substantial proportion of live trees. If decade-old dead trees were subsidized for biofuel use, this would support harvest and hauling of healthy saw-

logs along with them. The government is also considering swapping some existing cutting licences to increase wood supply for the Lakes district, to provide enough long-term supply for reconstruction of the destroyed Burns Lake sawmill. There is also the prospect of awarding unassigned timber to “a single representative of the six First Nations in the Lakes TSA.” Speaking to forest scientists who work in B.C.,

a couple of things become clear. This pine beetle epidemic may be the largest on record, but it is far from the first. And despite many assertions by former premier Gordon Campbell, it is not certain if this one is the result of a broader climate trend or just a string of warmer winters after decades of fire suppression kept older stands around. Lodgepole pine forests are fire-propagated. The term “old growth” has little meaning in a cycle of natu-

ral fires that doesn’t occur in wetter zones. But none of this will matter much in the urban political debate that is about to ensue. “Old growth” is now a quasi-religious notion. International environmental groups have convinced most people that logging is the primary cause of forest loss. In fact, the UN’s “State of the World’s Forests” reports have shown that 95 per cent of global forest loss is due to agriculture.

Forest cover is increasing in industrialized countries, which use farmland more efficiently. The B.C. Liberal government needs to make some tough decisions quickly, before next year’s election. The premier’s vow to “create and defend” jobs is about to be tested like never before.

Crimes of the Heart introduces new talent Gaeil Farrar Tribune Staff Writer The Studio Theatre’s production of Crimes of the Heart on stage this week introduces two promising young actors, high school student Kalysta Szauer who plays the accused Babe Botrelle and Oren Barter, who is better known in the lakecity for his musical talents, and takes to the stage for the first time as lawyer Barnette Lloyd. Set in the early 1970s in an old Mississippi family home, the play brings three sisters, with three very different lives, together as their grandfather is dying. “With some good, old-fashioned family dynamics, the sisters laugh and cry together as they rediscover each other and their true strength as a family,” says director Colleen Crossley. “The play opens with the youngest sister Babe (Kalysta Szauer) having just shot her husband because she ‘didn’t like

TIPS FROM THE CRD

Grilling Safety

There’s nothing like outdoor grilling. It’s one of the most popular ways to cook food. But, a grill placed too close to anything that can burn is a re hazard. They can be very hot, causing burn injuries. Follow these simple Ɵps and you will be on the way to safe grilling.

• • • • •

SAFETY TIPS

Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors. The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches. Keep children and pets away from the grill area. Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill. Never leave your grill unaƩended.

CHARCOAL GRILLS

There are several ways to get the charcoal ready to use. Charcoal chimney starters allow you to start the charcoal using newspaper as a fuel. If you use a starter uid, use only charcoal starter uid. Never add charcoal uid or any other ammable liquids to the re. Keep charcoal uid out of the reach of children and away from heat sources. There are also electric charcoal starters, which do not use re. Be sure to use an extension cord for outdoor use. When you are nished grilling, let the coals completely cool before disposing in a metal container.

PROPANE GRILLS

Check the gas tank hose for leaks before using it for the rst Ɵme each year. Apply a light soap and water soluƟon to the hose. A propane leak will release bubbles. If your grill has a gas leak, by smell or the soapy bubble test, and there is no ame, turn oī the gas tank and grill. If the leak stops, get the grill serviced by a professional before using it again. If the leak does not stop, call the re department. If you smell gas while cooking, immediately get away from the grill and call the re department. Do not move the grill. Sponsored by

SPCA offers shelter tours Saturday The Williams Lake & District Branch of the BC SPCA is hosting an animal-themed fun day on Saturday, May 5 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The local SPCA is located at 709 Bond Lake Rd. off Highway 20. In addition to featuring pets looking for loving homes, activities will include education booths and refreshments, as well as BC SPCA merchandise available for purchase. Guests will also be invited to take a shelter tour and get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the world of animal welfare. Hill’s Science Diet is partnering with BC SPCA branches across the province to promote adoption of homeless animals during May. “The open house series is an opportunity for people to meet the

animals available for adoption and to have fun learning more about how to help animals in the community,” says Lorie Chortyk, general manager of community relations for the BC SPCA. “We are extremely grateful to Hill’s for sponsoring this series to showcase the wonderful animals we have for adoption.” Hill’s Canada donates free food for all dogs, cats, puppies and kittens in BC SPCA branches across the province to ensure that the animals receive a high quality and consistent pet food. The program promotes the health of shelter animals, making them more adoptable and enables animals to be transferred between shelters without suffering any ill effects from chang-

ing pet food. Hill’s also gives a free 3.5-5 pound bag of Science Diet to new pet guardians with every BC SPCA cat or dog adoption along with The Guide for Lifelong Health. “We are excited to partner with the BC SPCA for the Annual Open House series,” says Brian Howard, General Manager for Hill’s Canada. “Hill’s Shelter Nutrition Partnership with the BC SPCA is a natural extension of our mission: To help enrich and lengthen the special relationships between people and their pets.” The BC SPCA adopts more than 18,000 animals each year through its 36 branches. All animals adopted from the BC SPCA are vet-checked, vaccinated and altered (spayed or

neutered), and assessed for temperament. For more information contact Liz Dighton, manager, BC SPCA Williams Lake & District Branch, 250-392-2179; Lorie Chortyk, general manager, community relations, 604-647-1316.

Arctic Air stars Adam Beach and Pascale Hutton join Echo Valley’s Nan and Norm Dove after dinner at the Main Lodge at Echo Valley. Photo submitted

Artic Air renewed Top-rated CBC TV series Arctic Air has been renewed for another season and that’s good news for tourist operators in British Columbia, says Echo Valley Ranch owner Norman Dove. His property near Jesmond was the site of extensive filming for the Arctic Air series this past winter and he hopes to see the cast and crew of the series back again. “We had 74 crew members filming on our air strip and in the woods for a week,” Dove says, “and that was during a time of year when we would not have many guests. It was great for business. We could only sleep about half, so the rest of the crew booked up a lot of rooms in Clinton. A TV series like that pumps a lot of money into local economies.” Echo Valley Ranch is located about an hour west of Clinton and offers spectacular

views, amenities ranging from horseback riding to fly-fishing, top-rated service and fine dining. The ranch has been used for filming on many occasions by Canadian and foreign film crews.

“Adam Beach is becoming quite a star,” Dove says, “and in person he is a very friendly person with a great sense of humour. The crew dined here in the main lodge every night and we had quite

a lot of fun. We have some great video of Adam dancing that we may post on YouTube. Now that we know the series will be back on the air, we’ll be asking them for permission to do so.”

Making the dream of home ownership a reality Kirsten Stark Financial literacy project co-ordinator For many people the idea of owning their own home can be quite scary. Finding the house you want at an affordable price can be the first big challenge and then there’s getting to grips with a mortgage, maintenance costs and being responsible for everything that can possibly go wrong and usually does at the worst time imaginable. This whole process is even harder if you only have a small down payment and a bad credit rating and I know this from personal experience. After having my first house repossessed when I was in my early 20s, I thought I’d blown my chances and it took five years of hard work to improve my credit rating enough so that lenders would even talk to me again. It took a few years more, before I was in a position to shop around or negotiate a better deal. So here’s my guide for turning wasted dollars into your future security: • Waste: Switching from the daily latte to the once a week latte.

Save $5 a day or $20 each week. Invest: pay off credit card. • Waste: No more ATM fees. Save: $2 each withdrawal, let’s say 10 each month, that’s $240 a year. Invest: Take a course and invest in your education. • Waste: Banking without charges. Save: $20 a month, that’s another $240 each year. Invest: start saving. • Waste: Giving up cable TV/Internet. Save: costs up to $100 a month, that’s $1,200 a year. Invest: buy a car. • Waste: reducing your cellphone charges (roaming, apps, etc.) Save: costs up to $50 a month, another $600 each year. Invest: pay off your mortgage. • Waste: Reduce or stop your bad habits: smoking, drinking, gambling, substance abuse, or leaving your vehicle running. Save: This is hard to put a figure on, and my conservative estimate is around $2,000, but it could be much higher.. Invest: take a family vacation that doesn’t end with a credit card bill. By making a few changes to your spending habits, you could save $3,000 to $5,000 in a single year. Now you can start

to work towards your longer-term goals. In year one, you use the $3,240 you saved to pay off your credit card that was costing you $150 a month and keep your bank account in credit to avoid fees. In year two, save $3,600 by spending wisely and avoiding fees. Now add the $1,800 from not having a credit card. That’s $5,400 this year. Year three, invest $2,000 in a savings account, so you can pay big or unexpected bills in full and on time. Invest $3,400 in a Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA). By paying bills in full and on time, you save $5,600 this year. Year four, invest another $2,000 in your “slush fund” savings and now you never need to worry about paying bills ever again. Invest $3,600 in your TFSA. Year five, invest all your annual savings in your TFSA: $5,600. At the end of year five, your TFSA has made $345 interest over three years and you now have a whopping $12,945 in savings. That’s a lot of buying power compared to five short years ago and in the meantime you’ve invested some time and effort to clean up your credit record

and greatly improve your credit rating. If you do decide to take on a mortgage, it should become your priority to pay it off as fast as you can.

Felling a tree is dangerous Felling large trees is a dangerous business. Ideally, it is a job that should be entrusted to a professional tree-trimmer. It might cost you a few hundred dollars but at least youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll avoid injuring yourself or damaging nearby buildings or other structures. If the tree you need to cut down is on the small side, you could do the job yourself, as long as you follow some safety guidelines. First of all, never fell a tree all by yourself. A helper is useful for a job like this, but more importantly, he or she can go get help if things go wrong. The next thing to do is decide where the tree should fall. The factors to take into consideration include the site, wind direction, and the shape and position of the tree. Clean the area around the foot of the tree, removing any brush that could get in the way. If you think that space is too limited for the tree to fall safely, cut off the top in twometre sections before making the cut at the base. It is also a good idea to remove larger

branches individually in order to avoid accidents and the crushing of surrounding vegetation, hedges, and fences. Once the tree has been felled the stump can be removed by digging around it, cutting any large roots with an axe or a saw. You can usually get rid of a stump completely if the tree isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very old. However, if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mature tree stump youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably have to rent a manual winch or a chain hoist. When attached to a fixed point such as another tree, this type of simple mechanical device can create powerful traction with the use of a crank. Be prepared to fill in the remaining hole with gravel or soil.

SPRING 2012

Brandywine Tomatoes What is an heirloom vegetable? The definition of a family heirloom vegetable doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be concrete. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not about to jump into the debate of whether the variety has to be 100 or 50 years old. My personal opinion is if something has been handed down from generation to generation it must be worthwhile. However, it is a fact that heirloom vegetables are always open-pollinated (nonhybrid) varieties. That means their seeds can be saved every year and the plants grown from that seed will show the traits of the original seed. So the seeds that were passed on down from your Great Uncle Henry will have the same shaped leaves and fruit as his did. Of course there is no

One of the favorite heirloom tomatoes to grow is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Brandywineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; comparison to growing your own tomato versus one from a big

box food chain. Everyone is searching for those special variet-

ies that burst with flavour. That is only one of the reasons people are growing heirloom tomatoes. There are other reasons for supporting heirloom varieties such as conserving the biodiversity of food crops, but that is a topic unto its own. One of the favorite heirloom tomatoes to grow is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Brandywineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The Burpee seed company reports carrying it in their catalogue as early as 1886. It was first introduced to the gardening public through the Seed Savers Exchange in 1882 and can be traced back to Dorris Sudduth Hill who claims to have grown it in her family for 80 years prior to that. This must be some delicious tomato to be still kicking around after all those years. It is legendary for its exceptional rich, succulent, sweet tomato flavor. It is a beefsteak shape

Landscaping a slope New gardeners may find that their skills and experience run short when it comes to landscaping hilly terrain. Sloping land can be daunting, and the challenge increases with the degree of the gradient, its dimensions, and whether it climbs or falls away from the house. The good news is that these problems can be turned into advantages if you take the time to plan your work well. A descending slope, which often includes a nice view, is easier to landscape than one that climbs away from a home. Working with the natural slope, you can create a rockery or an artificial stream with a series of waterfalls. If you want to create a path, make sure it winds its way down the slope rather than dropping in a straight

A landscaped slope can be very attractive if the work is well planned. line, which would only accentuate the difference in elevation. The landscaping challenge is a bit

tougher when the slope climbs away from the home. An interesting option in this case is

to think about creating secret gardens, threaded with winding paths and lined with shrubs. If retention walls are necessary, choose good-quality, pleasant-looking materials, such as stone or wood. Alternately, carefully chosen shrubs or other plantings can conceal retaining walls. As best you can, avoid planting regular grass on a slope. When the time comes to cut it, you will have a hard time with the mower, especially if the slope is very steep. If you really want to have a carpet of greenery, opt for thyme, which is a great alternative if the spot receives enough sun. Although this type of land is a big challenge for gardeners, with a bit of planning, you will be very proud of the end result.

with pinkish flesh and even when fully ripe has green shoulders near the stem. Brandywine reportedly bears fruit up to 9 oz. and requires 80 to 100 days to mature so get your seeds started early or even better let us grow them for you. It does grow very tall, so I would suggest staking it as soon as you plant it out. Remember tomatoes need to be evenly watered; otherwise cracking of the fruit occurs. Check your tomatoes daily as it is amazing how much water they can soak up. Water the soil and not the foliage. Tomatoes are also heavy feeders so donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fall back on the fertilizer regime. Whether you feed organically or not is a personal decision. Garden center staff should be able to guide you in either direction. These tomatoes are self-pollinating so

collecting the seed is easy. Cut the fruit in half and scoop out seeds into a glass jar. Fill jar half full with water, shaking from time to time and allow to sit for about 4 days until

the seeds sink to the bottom. Rinse seeds until clean and dry on a glass plate or screen. Store in a cool dry location. Pass them on down your own family line.

I need to confess that I am a slow learner! Oh, not by the educational system definition, but when it comes to life and how to live as a follower of Jesus Christ, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a slow learner. It often takes several mistakes for me to learn the right way. I was raised in the typical â&#x20AC;&#x153;achievement and goal orientatedâ&#x20AC;? focused immigrant culture. Time has always been a critical factor in my upbringing. I learned that opportunities missed would never be repeated â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I learned to view lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s timeline as linear. Then God moved me to live in the Tahltan First Nation territory of the Stikine (Dease Lake) and I was blessed to be mentored in many aspects of life by the Tahltan people. I can remember expressing frustration with how long it took for certain things to be accomplished, only to receive a gentle reminder by one or more of the Elders that we would have another opportunity tomorrow to complete anything that was not accomplished today. The sun would rise again. Opportunities were seldom lost, just presented again, though perhaps with a slightly different appearance.

PARSONS PEN

BY GERRIT APPERLOO Time was circular, not linear! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a slow learner and I thank God that both He and the Tahltan people were patient with me. I discovered that by looking at time and opportunity in a circular, repetitive way allowed me to relax and enjoy life more. There was no reason to get upset by every little thing that went wrong, no need to consider missed opportunities as forever lost. I wonder how many of the followers of Jesus Christ struggle with this same problem in our relationship with Jesus and the living out of our Christian life walk. Do you struggle with the fear that if you made a mistake, if you gave into a temptation and

sinned, that you would get a big â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Xâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; beside your name in Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book of records and you could expect some form of punishment or disaster to come your way soon? Are you burdened down with regrets for the failure to stand firm in your faith, overburdened by it because you never had an opportunity to correct your failure? I think many of us do live with such fears. But is it right, is that what the Bible teaches us? Well, first of all, if you do have these feelings, great! First John 3 speaks about the fact that our hearts condemn us at times, because our heart knows we have done wrong. It would be a terrible thing for Christians if they never had any feelings of guilt for sin committed. But then remember that Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love covers over our sins if we confess them and repent. My experience is that we will have another chance to stand firm, to resist that particular temptation - and by the grace of God, to overcome it this time. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a slow learner â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are you? But letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not give up. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s learn Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way of looking at life.

TRADITIONALLY CHARMING EXTERIOR With its traditionally charming exterior, this threebedroom, two-storey home includes all the amenities demanded by todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s families, plus an unďŹ nished basement that offers room for expansion. The front door is sheltered a covered porch that extends into a veranda spanning the front of the home and set off my painted pilasters and a railing. The foyer includes a convenient coat closet and is open to the living room, located to the left. Part of the living-room ceiling is double-height, for a touch of drama. A gas ďŹ replace will make this room a magnet during the cooler months, and two large windows overlook the veranda and the front garden beyond. Through an archway lie the dining area and kitchen, which are separated by a four-seat eating bar. The kitchen counter layout will save steps for the cook. The double sink enjoys a view over a covered patio, perfect for year-round grilling, to the back garden. A corner pantry will offer always-needed storage space. The spacious dining room is roomy enough to include a large table by the windows, as well as a small entertainment area. A second coat closet is tucked in next to the doorway from the kitchen-dining area to the double garage. Next to the stairway leading to the second ďŹ&#x201A;oor are the laundry room and a three-piece lavatory. Upstairs, a computer area occupies a windowed niche between the stair rail and the third bedroom. This bedroom and bedroom no. 2 share a three-piece bath with its own linen closet.

The master suite is located at the back of the home and is well-separated from the secondary bedrooms. A second linen closet is tucked in by the entrance. In addition to the walk-in closet, there is an ensuite with double basins, a shower stall and a soaker tub with a tiled surround. Exterior ďŹ nishes include horizontal wood siding, partly mullioned windows, decorative woodwork in the gables and stone accents. Ceilings are nine feet high throughout, and the home measures 45 feet wide and 55 feet deep, for a total of 2,017 square feet.

In accordance with Section 20(1) of the Forest Planning and Practices Regulations, (FPPR) Tsi Del Del Enterprises Ltd. is proposing a major amendment to their Forest Stewardship Plan (FSP). The document will be publicly available for review and comments commencing May 1, 2012 for a period of 30 days. The intent of the amendments is to align the results and strategies within Tsi Del Delâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s FSP to the April 18, 2011 Ministerial Order establishing Land Use Objectives for the Cariboo-Chilcotin Land Use Plan Area. By incorporating the Land Use Objectives, the standards and measures in the FSP have either remained unchanged or have increase constraints on harvesting and road building. The FSP amendment was completed by Marchand Resource Management on behalf of Tsi Del Del Enterprises Ltd. and is available for review and written comment at the Tsi Del Del ofÂżce in Williams Lake until June 1, 2012. Please contact Michelle Marchand at 250-398-9313 or by email at michelle@marchandresmgmt.ca to review the amendment and provide written comments.

Gibraltar Mine has announced its Gibraltar Development Plan 3 (GDP3) which will increase Gibraltarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nominal milling capacity from 55,000 short dry tons/day (sdt/d) to 85,000 sdt/d. The GDP3 Project utilizes the existing site primary crushers, modernizes the mineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original coarse ore handling system and installs a second concentrator circuit (consisting of a SAG mill / Ball mill grinding circuit and associated ďŹ&#x201A;otation equipment) adjacent to the existing concentrator. In addition, a new molybdenum ďŹ&#x201A;otation circuit will be constructed and housed in itsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; own building to replace the existing molybdenum circuit which is housed inside the existing concentrator. These changes to the Gibraltar facilities necessitate that the air emissions permit be amended to include the new and modiďŹ ed infrastructure as well as remove the air emission points which the project will make redundant. Any person who may be adversely affected by the proposed amendment and wishes to provide relevant information may, within 30 days after the last date of posting, publishing, service or display, send written comments to the applicant, with a copy to the Regional Manager, Environmental Protection at Ste. 400 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 640 Borland Street, Williams Lake, BC, V2G 4T1. The identity of any respondents and the contents of anything submitted in relation to this application will become part of the public record. Dated this 21st day of April, 2012.
