For the first time in their lakecity history the 202 Chilcotin Royal Canadian Sea Cadets Corps and the 3064 Rocky Mountain Rangers Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps held a combined annual ceremonial review Wednesday evening at the Elks Hall. Reviewing officer Major R. Lewis praised both groups for a job well done. Numerous awards were presented including the CO’s Achievement Award 2011-12 Seamanship Team to the 202 Chilcotin Sea Cadets above. The team won first in their region and took a close second place at the provincial cadet seamanship competition in Victoria. Gaeil Farrar photo
Laws left hanging as legislature adjourns Tom Fletcher Black Press A dozen bills were being pushed through with minimal debate in the last two days of the B.C. legislature’s spring session, and four more will be left in limbo until the B.C. Liberal government decides whether to proceed with a scheduled fall session. B.C. Liberal house leader Rich Coleman moved to divide up the remaining time left to debate a stack of legislation tabled by government ministers in recent weeks. Bills receiving less than an hour of addition-
al scrutiny include changes to ferry legislation, new penalty provisions for transit fare evasion, changes to support harsher roadside penalties for suspected impaired drivers, the establishment of a Family Day holiday and the reinstatement of the provincial sales tax (PST). NDP house leader John Horgan said complicated issues such as sales tax transition for new home sales can’t possibly be understood in the 30 minutes allowed for debate. The B.C. Liberals have “completely and utterly botched” this legislative session, with 15 bills
presented with only eight sitting days left, Horgan said. Coleman and Finance Minister Kevin Falcon have previously said the late flood of legislation was caused partly by the staff time required to dismantle the harmonized sales tax, set to end next spring. The legislative logjam prompted the government to open a third chamber in a committee room, holding three simultaneous debates for the first time in B.C. history. Coleman said the NDP opposition wasted hours of debate time speaking to legislation that they ended up supporting, and opposing the use of

a third debate chamber. “If they hadn’t spent three days talking about the HST when the PST bill was the one they were supposed to be debating, and given us leave to do the third house, all the work would have got done,” Coleman said. The four bills not passed in the spring session include a restructuring of ambulance services, and regulatory changes affecting disease reporting on farms. Another bill left in limbo would modernize movie regulations, and the fourth makes changes to water use in oil and gas drilling.

News The princess of poop
I have two old horses that I often refer to as pasture ornaments, but they’re much more than that. They’re a link to my horse-crazy past, treasured friends and a never-ending source of joy … and poop. Lots and lots of poop. A horse produces around 50 pounds of manure a day! With two horses I am practically a manure baroness. To an average person this might not seem like anything to brag about. However, as an obsessed gardener, having access to all that brown gold makes me feel blessed beyond belief. Come garden season I trundle off with my trusty wheelbarrow on frequent manure expeditions. I was on one such mission the other evening when I looked up and locked eyes with my horses. I could just imagine what they were thinking. Mindy: “What is Human up to now, Mage? Tell me she isn’t … no, she can’t be … .” Mage: “What the … great grain buckets! Would you look at that? And check out how happy she looks about it!” Something tells me
SLICE OF LIFE SHANNON McKINNON
I’ve lost their respect entirely. With 10 acres of pasture to call their own you might think collecting manure would be a daunting task, but it isn’t. For some reason my horses have their favoured dumping grounds which makes collecting manure for the compost a breeze. This isn’t to say they never let loose as the mood strikes and let things drop willy-nilly, but more often than not they wander over to a designated spot. I’ve had Mage and Mindy for 20 years so I never thought much about it until a ferrier pointed out how unusual it was. I don’t know why they do it; I’m just glad they do. And that’s not all, oh no, that’s not all! I also have a few sheep and a small flock of chickens to add to my poop portfolio. What
wealth! Too bad I don’t have any sperm whales. Sperm whales produce ambergris — a much sought after product used by the perfume industry for its ability to absorb scent and keep it clinging to the skin for hours. The best ambergris sells for $20,000 a kilogram. That’s a lot of money for whale feces. Or vomit. It can be either. As I understand it, ambergris is a waxy substance produced in the whale’s stomach to protect its bowels from being pierced by sharp objects, such as giant squid beaks. Ambergris wraps itself around the object and then the whale expels it. If the whale eats a lot of giant squid beaks in one sitting the mass can become too large to pass, so the whale will simply up-chuck it instead. After it makes its dramatic exit there is more involved than simply scooping it up and running to the bank. To become what has been described as
a “beautiful, earthy smelling, iridescent mass” it needs to first be seasoned by the sea. It can take months or even years for the feces (or vomit) to harden and become a beachcombing treasure. There is some confusion as to whether mainstream perfume manufacturers still use it; most deny it. Whether that’s for legal reasons or because they don’t want to turn consumers off is hard to say. The sperm whale is an endangered species and as such any product it produces is off limits so technically dealing in ambergris is illegal. On the other hand, the hardened feces (or vomit) have been completely disconnected from the whale by the time humans exploit it, so it’s a bit of a grey area and authorities tend to look the other way. On the flip side there are independent perfumers who concoct exclusive aromas that sell for thousands of
dollars per ounce for private clients and fully disclose ambergris as a key ingredient. The wealthy even buy it to use in their tea for its supposed claritygiving qualities. King Charles 11 was reputed to have sprinkled it on his scrambled eggs, while top chefs and foodies still add precious pinches to special dishes today. I’m confused. I don’t know whether to be grossed out, fight to ban it, wear it, eat it or take up the lucrative life of an ambergrisseeking beachcomber. Maybe if I ate some I’d have more clarity in the matter. In the meantime, I have horse manure to collect. Shannon McKinnon is a humour columnist from Northern BC.

Hearing clinic offers tinnitus counselling Tinnitus might not be a household word; however, its definition — ringing in the ears — is a growing problem. “I do a lot of tinnitus counselling,” says Lindsay Satchell, owner and manager of Woodland Tinnitus and Hearing Clinic. “It’s basically my specialty. I go to the U.S. and take whatever courses I can there because the U.S. is where you learn the most about it because they have all the war vets,” War vets, she explains, have the largest number of ringing in their ears so the U.S. government spends large amounts of money trying to make them better.” Modern wars continue to have an effect, as did both world wars, because of guns. In the Cariboo it’s logging that’s the culprit. There are not many things a person can do to stop the ringing; however, dietary changes such as cutting back salt, caffeine, cheese and red wine have proven to be helpful. “You have to learn to live with it too. People
come in and say they’re going to fight it, but you can’t. It’s part of who we are. “We don’t know as much about it as we think because we only found out a few years ago that it comes from the brain, not the ears. It’s the brain signalling back to the ears that something’s wrong.” Three years ago she decided she would concentrate more on tinnitus. “On and off I’ve been working in the field of hearing problems for the last 12 years. My own tinnitus came from farming, driving tractors and things in Ontario.” It can worsen with hearing loss and aging and for the most part is more bothersome for males, although there are some women affected, she says. Satchell’s husband is also plagued with tinnitus. “I would like to cure him, but I really don’t think there’s a cure, just things you can do to lessen it.” He’s a trucker and

hunter and a lightening shot once got him as well — three strikes Satchell figures led to the ringing in his ears. “There are some people that it actually affects their quality of life and my husband is one of them.” It interrupts sleep, concentration and even changes people’s moods. It can be so debilitating that after the Second World War some soldiers were asked if they wanted to have their hearing

nerves severed to take care of the ringing and many said “yes.” “Unfortunately we didn’t know at the time that it wasn’t from the ear so we did the surgery. They woke up deaf, or non-functional, and still had tinnatus,” Satchell says, adding some war vets from Iraq and Iran have even committed suicide, which is why the U.S. is putting money into research. When she was last in the U.S., some research-
ers there were really stressed because one of their test subjects had committed suicide. The number of clients continues to grow steadily, keeping the clinic “extremely” busy. “We have a mobile lab where Dwight does site testing at industrial sites and my big focus right now is public speaking. I go out and about and do free public speaking on hearing loss and tinnitus or whatever anyone wants me to talk about,”
AN APPLE A DAY... June is Brain Injury Awareness Month. The image of the brain being like a big blob of jelly encased in bone is quite graphic and indicates the importance of head protection. A damaged brain can affect one’s quality of life forever. It deserves to be protected. If you are still a smoker, be sure you have your teeth and gums checked routinely. It seems that smokers go to the dentist less often than non-smokers. Dental problems like jaw pain, toothaches and infected gums are found twice as often in smokers. See your dentist twice a year to keep dental problems to a minimum.

We talk a lot about keeping your blood pressure low but can it be too low? Blood pressure that’s too low can cause symptoms of blurred vision, confusion, dizziness, fainting and subsequent falls. Have your blood pressure checked regularly. Home blood pressure kits are reliable and easy to use. A good investment. Night-time cramps can be very painful and interrupt a good night’s sleep. Drugs can sometimes be the cause. Two groups of medications that may contribute to this problem are long-acting bronchodilator inhalers used for some lung conditions and diuretics to treat high blood pressure. Side effects can occur with many medications. If you are concerned whether your medications might be the cause, ask our pharmacists. We can access a large amount of information on all drugs and their side effects. It’s part of our job.

she says, adding the public speaking is turning out to be the best way to contact people. Whether it’s a nursing home or a meeting, Satchell and her staff are there to spread the word. “I go into schools, anywhere that wants to learn about hearing loss. Three of us go. We love it and actually really enjoy it a lot.” When people come in to have tests and she knows they’re not wearing hearing protection,
Satchell will embark on a big discussion with them to help them understand the risks. Satchell recently purchased the hearing equipment from Lens Cutters in Williams Lake. At an open house held May 26, Satchell and her staff — husband Dwight Satchell, Sandra Brigden and Dina Blake — welcomed visitors to the new clinic located in the lower level of Yorston Medical Clinic building at 143 Fourth Ave. South.

Christianity comes in many forms today. Information and hype both true and false bombard us whether we are interested or not. Many people seeking truth, both Christians and non-Christians struggle with all the information and propaganda to sort out what is authentic and true about Christian faith and experience. To understand authentic Christianity, we must go back to a time before Christianity was institutionalized. Back to a time when spirituality for a small group of people was all about one man, Jesus, who claimed to be God and who gave abundant evidence of both his humanity and his divinity. This small group of Jesus followers were misunderstood, mocked and even killed by their contemporaries because of their belief in a God called Jesus. They would rather die than give up the hope and joy that he brought into their lives. Authentic Christianity is all about the power of love demonstrated in the life and teachings of Jesus. The message that Jesus brought to our troubled world was that there is a God who loves everyone, especially anxious and hurting people from all walks of life. His shocking message was and is today that the God of the Bible has no favorites and desires a personal friendship with everyone. He loves unconditionally, the likable and the unlikable, the good and the bad, the rich and the poor and yes, the
PARSONS PEN
BY CAMERON JOHNSTON religious and the unreligious. Jesus taught that in him, the mighty creator God came to seek and save a lost and selfish planet at great cost to himself, even death on a cross. The power of transforming love is at the foundation of Christianity and is the foundation principle of the universe. In spite of all the evidence to the contrary love rules and the short life and ministry of Jesus is a real life drama that demonstrates what God is really like. Jesus was either God in human flesh or the greatest con artist of all time. The church that Jesus established to reveal his love and to care for hurting people became institutionalized a few decades after its establishment. After a few centuries, the love of power took over and the institution became more important than the people and message
it was designed to demonstrate to the world. Today only a remnant of authentic Christianity remains but if you dig hard enough you can find some authentic Christ followers in most churches and some outside the organized church. These people live lives all about Jesus. They are humble individuals caring for hurting people and loving God with all their hearts. You have heard it said,“All that glitters is not gold.� So it is with religion and spirituality. Nice buildings, exciting programs, influential and charismatic people may give the appearance of great spirituality but that may or may not be the case. Where do we find real authentic Christianity? Simply go back to the original story about the person of Jesus Christ. In the New Testament read the gospels beginning with the Gospel of John. If you are not a reader go online or find a copy on CD and listen to the amazing story of Jesus. A great place to start online is: www.biblegateway.com The truth about authentic Christianity is the truth about Jesus Christ. This truth is stranger than fiction. Once you realize that God desires to be your friend and accept his friendship Jesus will bring a joy and peace into your life beyond understanding. Ask God to reveal himself to you and hold fast to truth. Jesus is the way the truth and the life.

Argo helps mobility impaired Wayne Biffert Special to The Tribune The Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association (WLSA) will begin taking people with mobility problems on trips along Williams Lake River Valley Trail. The association has an Argo eight-by-eight Avenger that was donated to the club by the Rick Hansen Foundation with the understanding it would be used to help facilitate people with spinal cord injuries and mobility problems to get outdoors. As the Argo is really rough riding in the bush, it was decided to approach the City of Williams Lake to try to get permission to take people down the river trail. The trail is relatively smooth and the scenery is great. Permission was granted and the city added that it’s trying to make life more enjoyable for handicapped persons. It appreciates the added service to the community. Some modifications were done on the Argo to try to make it easier for people to get in and out of the vehicle. Steps and a handrail were manufactured by Cariboo Steel & Machine Ltd. The steps were painted
by Mark IV Collision Repairs. The WLSA and community of Williams Lake thank these two busi-
nesses as well as the Rick Hansen Foundation for helping to provide this opportunity to the citizens of Williams Lake.

Chaos reigns in wake of HST
T
he old saying goes that if you like sausages and laws, you shouldn’t watch either one being made. The legislature’s sausage factory worked overtime to crank out a pile of legislative change before the government choked off debate and shut it down for the summer. This is after a dozen complicated bills were stuffed into the hopper in the final month. For the first time in B.C. history, debate was carried on in three separate chambers to try to get through it all. It created a chaotic scene, with politicians and reporters dashing around trying to create the impression they were on top of it all. The NDP opposition screamed bloody murder about this travesty, especially as the clock ran down last week and bills were assigned a token 30 or 45 minutes to meet the B.C. Liberal government’s arbitrary deadline. Alas, what little time was allowed for the opposition to question legislation was largely frittered away with the usual partisan sniping that substitutes for alternative ideas. The good news is that this mad rush wasn’t a calculated scheme to ram through unpopular, unfair measures. Quite the contrary. The B.C. Liberal government’s back is to the wall, trying to do what the public and circum-
B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER
stances demand and save its own skin. Here’s a partial list of the marching orders. Get rid of the harmonized sales tax and bring back a computerized version of the old, inefficient provincial sales tax. Unclog the court system, which has become so constipated that a Stanley Cup riot fool can’t even plead guilty in a reasonable time. And find a way to make our growing population of urban anarchists and assorted other deadbeats pay to ride transit. The HST exercise continues to exact its cost. The unprecedented job of creating a modern system for the archaic sales tax was the main cause of the legislative logjam, tying up government lawyers and delaying drafting of other bills. Small businesses that paid $3,000 to convert to HST get to pay another $3,000 to go back, and we had all better hope the new computer software works.
Speaking of computers, one of the laws passed amid the shouting is one that establishes an online system for disputing traffic tickets. Police will print out tickets from their cars instead of hand-writing them, and drivers will have an alternative way to argue about whether they really ran that red light. Fighting a ticket in court now takes seven to 18 months, tying up judges, court registry staff and po-
lice. An administrative system won’t keep them all out of court, but the government hopes to reduce the average resolution time to 90 days and save $8 million a year or more. A similar administrative system is being established for small civil claims and strata property disputes. Some legislation is to fix earlier screw-ups. A judge tossed out B.C.’s most heavy-handed administra-
tive penalties for failing a roadside blood alcohol test, so the government brought in a new version that allows for another administrative appeal. The mistake of making transit operate on a poorly policed “honour system” goes back to Social Credit days. There is finally a system to enforce collection of fines, on those rare occasions when someone is ticketed for taking a free ride.
Even with the last-minute rush, four bills couldn’t be rammed through. Since the legislature will almost certainly have to be recalled to impose a contract on teachers this fall, the government would do well to provide a couple of weeks for orderly debate at that time.

Grad parade and events this Saturday night The grad parade in Williams Lake is usually quite interesting for viewers with students riding on horseback, in horse-drawn carriages, in vintage vehicles, on trailered boats, on bicycles, in big trucks and even in the shovel of a backhoe last year. The grad parade will start marshaling on Second Avenue North by Sacred Heart Catholic School by 5:30 p.m. this Saturday, June 9 and will start rolling at 6:30 p.m. The parade will travel south on Second Avenue, left on Borland Street, left on Third Avenue, and right onto Proctor Street to the Cariboo Memorial Complex with arrivals starting about 7:30 p.m. for the annual Dry Grad celebrations. Parents are encouraged not to stop traffic flow for picture opportunities, say organizers. There will be photo opportunities at the back of the complex and inside the complex. The formal graduation ceremonies actually started Thursday with the GROW/Skyline graduation ceremonies for 56 students taking place in the Marie Sharpe Elementary School gymnasium. Tonight Columneetza and Williams Lake secondary grads will be participating in rehearsals at the Cariboo Memorial Complex. Saturday the Columneetza Secondary School graduation ceremonies for 135 students are set for 9:30 a.m. in the main arena followed by the Williams Lake Secondary School graduation ceremonies for 109 students at 1 p.m. Each graduate will receive two tickets which will allow two family members or friends at a time to enter the main arena Saturday evening to see the prom decorations and take pictures. The visiting session is between 7:30 and 9 p.m. Visitors will enter through the side door of the complex on the Boitanio Park side of the building. For fire safety reasons the number of people visiting inside at a time is limited. After viewing is complete the family or friends will drop off their prom pass at the exit so that
it may be used by other people waiting to view the prom area. Guests entering the complex may be asked to have their purses and bags searched for safety purposes, organizers say. Visitors will leave the complex at 9 p.m. when the prom and other Dry Grad festivities for grads and their escorts will begin. This year’s theme, chosen by the grads, is Stars and Constellations, says Orlena McColl, who is heading up the decorations committee. Grads and escorts will be able to dance, play on the “big” toys and participate in different games in the carnival-themed activities area. There is also a hypnotist who will be putting on performances throughout the night. “It will be a fun-filled event, and About Face Photography will be on site for professional photos between 9 p.m. and 1 a.m., and John Dell will be capturing it all as he is producing DVDs of the entire event, which
will be available for purchase,” McColl says. There will be prizes drawn throughout the night, but grads must be present to win the prizes. Grads and escorts who leave the building early will not be permitted back inside. Food will be served throughout the night, but breakfast will not be provided. Parents or guardians will pick up grads and escorts between 4 and 5 a.m. Sunday. Grad committee cochair Betty Turatus says the dry grad committee had a few challenges this year with their grant-inaid, a solution for which has been worked wonderfully with the city and CRD, and with finding volunteers. She says having more volunteers would have meant shorter shifts at Dry Grad but preparations are going smoothly. “The grad event for this weekend is going great,” Turatus says. “The decoration committee starts on Wednesday (June 6) morning to do the set up.
They will continue until they are done on Friday. Anyone wanting to help is welcome to go to the complex any time from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.” She says students were also to receive their last newsletter about Dry Grad requirements on Wednesday along with their visitor prom passes for family and friends, and baggage check tags for the rehearsal and baggage check-in on Friday evening. “It is important the grad brings his/her bag and their guest’s bag to rehearsal on Friday,” Turatus says. “It might be a good idea for parents to ask for the newsletter if they haven’t seen it.” While teachers are not expected to participate in the formal graduation ceremonies due to job action related to stalled contract negotiations, Turatus says the teacher job action has not affected the Dry Grad event which is a parent/community organized event. She thanks the community for its “continu-

year has been great and it has been a pleasure working with all of them.” Dry Grad co-chair Bill Page says the event is quite expensive to put on costing about $50,000 to cover costs for food, entertainment, arena rental and the like. He says the truck raffle will likely be

Clean air week As part of Canadian Environment Week, Clean Air Day was held on Wednesday, June 6 to raise awareness and encourage action on clean air and climate change issues. Although the day has passed, that doesn’t mean you can’t do your part every day to help the environment and keep the air clean. When you use public transit, walk, or use your rake instead of the leaf blower you can reduce your personal emissions, save money on fuel, contribute to your personal health and a better quality of life for everyone. A major contributor of air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions is the transportation sector. Studies have linked pollution from vehicles to increased rates of cancer, heart and lung disease, and asthma as well as contributing to global warming. Children are more vulnera-
ble than adults to health impairments from air pollution like asthma and other respiratory illnesses because children breathe faster, inhale more air per kilogram body weight and have developing organs and tissues. Since there are no safe levels of air pollution, it is important that as a community we adopt the principle of continuous improvement. There are many simple ways that you can contribute to good air quality. Alternative transportation — instead of driving to work alone, try one of these alternatives: • Walk, run, ride your bike or rollerblade • Carpool • Use public transit Air-friendly driving tips — if you must drive, these tips can help you reduce emissions, fuel consumption and save money: • Plan your trips and
combine errands; cut down on unnecessary journeys. • Avoid idling. More than 10 seconds of idling uses more fuel than restarting the engine and reduces engine life by up to 20 per cent. Compared to a moving vehicle it releases twice as many exhaust fumes; air that even the driver and his/her occupants have to breathe. • Practice safe nonaggressive driving. Drive in the highest gear possible. Maintain a constant speed, use cruise control. • Use air conditioning sparingly; use in stop-go traffic increases fuel consumption by as much as 20 per cent. • Keep your vehicle well maintained, especially tire pressure. Yard and garden care — emissions from lawn mowers, leaf blowers, trimmers and outdoor gas powered equipment pollute the air in your yard and your neighbor-
hood. A gas-powered lawn mower emits as much pollution in one hour as driving a newer car 225 kilometres. • Switch to manual or electric tools; choose four- over two-stroke engines. • Chip materials and use as mulch, or compost yard and garden waste rather than burn, as this creates noxious chemicals. Take grass, leaves and shrubs to the Central Cariboo Transfer Station. • Plant native trees. Plants clean the air by removing carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. Trees can help shade your house and lower the cost of air conditioning. We all share the air — do your part. Submitted by the Williams Lake Environmental Society and Air Quality Round Table. Check the local air quality and get more info at www.breatheasywilliamslake.org.

giant chair created by retired teacher for musical This giant chair for the Williams Lake Secondary School’s musical Alice — A Wonderland on stage next week was designed and built by retired teacher Jim Simms, who director Sidonie Boll (left) says had to take apart to get it out of his workshop and move it to the school. Simms also made an old fashioned camera prop for the musical which will feature lots of colourful characters and costumes with a theme suitable for the whole family. Nicole Curbello, seated in the chair, plays the role of Alice. Alice — A Wonderland is on stage at Williams Lake secondary theatre at 7 p.m. June 12-16 and June 20-23, plus a matinee and meet-the-actors event at 1 p.m. on June 23. Tickets are available at the school, The Hobbit House and The Open Book. Gaeil Farrar photo

Historic petroglyph returns to Cariboo Wednesday A petroglyph rock that has been in Vancouver since 1926 will be returning to its home with the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation (formerly Canoe Creek Indian Band) on June 13. A ceremony will take place June 11 at the Museum of Vancouver with Chief Hank Adam of the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation prior to the petroglyph’s historic journey of repatriation back to Secwepemc traditional territory west of Clinton. Members of the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation and the MOV will be joined by Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson, Williams Lake Mayor Kerry Cook, the CRD Chair Al Richmond, and members of Vancouver City Council. “It’s been 86 years since the petroglyph rock was taken without our consent from our traditional area,” says Hank Adam, chief of the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation. “For Stswecemc/ Xgat’tem it means a sense of empowerment for us to finally have a voice as to the future of this sacred petroglyph rock. It is an exciting time for our community. We look forward to the rock’s journey home.” The boulder, measuring approximately three by five feet and weighing about six tons, was found on the east bank of the Fraser River near Crowe’s Bar back in 1926 by prospector H.S. Brown. Brown brought the petroglyph to the attention of Park Board Chair W.C. Shelly, who arranged for its move to Stanley Park in Vancouver. It took a team of 10 horses a month to drag the boulder from the sandbar along the Fraser up the 3,000 foot ascent to the railhead near Clinton. After years of being in
Stanley Park in an unsheltered area where it was subject to vandalism, the park board and the museum agreed to donate and move the rock to MOV in 1992. In 2010, MOV curatorial staff and its Collections Committee began to explore repatriation of the petroglyph. It was determined to have come from the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation. In August 2011, members of the First Nation and MOV staff visited the original site of the boul-
der and began planning for repatriation. “We were powerfully moved last year when Chief Adam and our friends at Canoe Creek took us to the exact spot where the rock had stood,” explained Joan Seidl, director of collections and exhibitions at the MOV. “It is a timeless place that has endured despite the sadness of the great rock’s removal. The Museum of Vancouver looks forward to working with the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem
First Nation to bring the petroglyph home and the joy that it will bring.” After consultation with its people about where the petroglyph should rest after its return, the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation has decided to place the petroglyph in Churn Creek Protected Area upon its return. A ceremony will take place at Churn Creek (below the Gang Ranch bridge) at 2 p.m. June 13, followed by a dinner at 5:30 p.m. Everyone is
welcome to attend. A documentary film is being made about the repatriation, and everyone is invited to follow the journey of the petroglyph at www.facebook.com/ storyofarock. As part of its ongoing support of the Museum of Vancouver’s First Nation Collection, Vancouver Airport Authority is pleased to support the repatriation of this significant petroglyph to the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation.

THREE-BEDROOM WITH RURAL CHARM Multiple gables lend the exterior of this two-storey, three-bedroom family home an air of rural charm. Inside, comfort and convenience rule. The covered entrance leads into a generous foyer, with a handy coat closet on the right. Off the foyer is a den, the perfect location for a home ofďŹ ce, since clients will not have to walk through the house to reach it. Thanks to the den’s walk-in closet, the room could double as a guest room. Visible from the foyer is the open-plan great room, which ows into the dining area and kitchen, allowing the cook to keep an eye on the rest of the family during meal preparation. Part of this area features a double-height ceiling.

Is there a right way to plant flowers? Planting flowers is as simple as digging a hole, positioning the plant, and filling the hole with soil, right? Unfortunately it’s not that simple, at least not if you want your flowers to thrive. Here are a few tips for successful planting. The right time to plant depends on the type of flowers chosen. Spring-flowering perennials (perennials are plants which
live several years and flower on a regular basis) should be planted at the end of the summer. Summer-flowering plants should be planted in the spring. Annuals, which are flowers that only live for one summer, should be planted as soon as all risk of frost is over. It is preferable to plant at the end of the afternoon or on a cloudy day so that your
Proper planting techniques ensure the health of your plants.
plants are exposed to as little heat as possible. If you cannot put them in the ground on the same day as you purchase them, they should be stored in a shady area, sheltered from the wind. Should freshly planted flowers be watered with a fertilizer so they will grow more quickly? Definitely not! New plants must be allowed to start a root system
“Go Natural� in your yard and garden Be Water Wise and Chemical Free Eliminate or reduce your use of chemical herbicides, fertilizers and pesticides. Try Alternative ‘Natural� Herbicides and Pesticides: Choose environmentally friendly, less toxic alternatives to reduce persistent weeds and pests. Vinegar Weed Eradicator 1Litre water, 2 tbsp. salt and 5 tbsp.
white or apple cider vinegar. Directions: Add salt and vinegar to boiling water. While still hot, apply mixture to undesirable weeds growing in walkways, driveways and your lawn and garden. Apply to your target ONLY. Rhubarb Insecticide Boil 500 grams of rhubarb leaves in a few pints of water for 20 minutes,
allow to cool, then strain the liquid into a container. Add some dish detergent or soap flakes (not laundry detergent!) and spray on leaves to kill off all kinds of bugs, including aphids and spider mites. * NOTE: rhubarb leaves contain high amounts of oxalic acid and are VERY toxic if ingested. Garlic: to control
A garden in the shade of a tree Trees spring to mind when most people think about shade gardens, but the often neglected north side of a home should not be forgotten. In any shady zone, you can create plots for conifers, shrubs, perennials, or shade-loving annuals, meaning they can live with about two hours of sunshine per day. The denser leaves of trees such as maples and limes create a deeper shade than birches, and the lower the branches are, the denser the shade will be. To cultivate a wider range of plants, prune back low branches to a minimum height of 1.5 metres. When creating flower beds under older trees, which often have large roots near the surface, raised beds are best. Be sure to raise them at least 20 centimetres from the ground and choose plant
species which do not develop deep roots. Try to be creative and avoid making a small, symmetrical flower bed circling the base of the tree. The result is not always aesthetically pleasing, especially if filled with a gaudy mix of annuals. A better idea is to create a good-sized flower bed with curving lines that will also facilitate grass cutting. If you love a harmonious but striking visual effect in your garden, plant large areas with
just one plant species: a green groundcover, such as pachysandra, will create a stunningly elegant effect while a flowering plant, such as lily of the valley, will produce beautiful fragrances in the spring. If you prefer more contrast and colour, then yellow, orange, pink, and white annuals are just the thing. The number of colours should, however, be limited to two or three, and the plants should be positioned in concentric lines.
aphids, whitefly and other soft-bodied insects. Allow 3-4 Cloves of finely chopped garlic to soak in 2 tsp of mineral oil for 24 hours. Add 1 litre of water and Ÿ ounce of liquid dish soap. Stir well and strain into a glass jar for storage. To use: combine 1-2 tbsp of mixture in 1 pint of water to make a spray. Cat Repellent spray: Combine 2 parts cayenne powder, 3 parts dry mustard powder, 5 parts flour and enough water to create a solution. Spray around area where cats not welcome. Dog repellent spray: Mix 1 clove garlic, 1 medium onion, 1 litre of water and 15ml Tobasco sauce. Squirrel Repellent Spray: Combine 15 ml Tobasco sauce, ½ tsp chilli powder, 5 litres water and a dash of dish soap. Tips for a healthier lawn: Top dress your lawn with organic material -alfalfa pellets/
Cut your lawn higher 3 inches is optimal. Leave grass clippings on your lawn – a natural mulch & fertilizer. Aerate often. Backyard composting – free fertilizer from kitchen scraps. Get rid of nitrogen fertilizers for your lawn. Don’t use them. Avoid excessive watering. Let it go a natural GOLDEN -once into the excessive heat of summer consider not watering your lawn, the late summer and fall rains will bring it back to green. Plant drought tolerant ground covers and native plants that look great and require less water. By planting a waterwise garden residents can easily reduce garden watering by 60%. Water is life.

Once that has happened, apply a liquid fertilizer, such as 1530-15, once every 15 days. Never apply fertilizer to dry soil. Take the time to water it beforehand so that the fertilizer doesn’t burn your plants.

Watering the garden is an art in itself! All plants need water, which helps them absorb the nutritional elements they require through their roots and transport them up through the stem to their leaves, flowers, and fruits. It is this process which allows them to grow. Mother Nature provides the most efficient watering method, but garden hoses and watering cans must come to the rescue during dry spells. Watering a garden is an art form. Some gardeners believe in watering before 9:00 in the morning, so the sun won’t burn tender leaves as droplets sit upon them. Others prefer to water in the cool of the evening, when water evaporation is less likely to occur. Whether you
Infrequent but thorough watering is most effective. water at dawn or dusk, one thing is certain: infrequent but thorough watering is best. Most plants need 2.5-3 centimetres of
water per week to supply all their needs. The quality of the soil makes all the difference during a heat wave. Loose, sandy soil will require
watering approximately every four days, while clay soil can stay moist for a week. A simple way to know when you should water is to place
a small container in your garden in order to measure rainfall. During the summer many municipalities impose watering restrictions for gardens and yards. This is in everyone’s best interest to respect because it protects our water supplies. A great solution to that limitation is to install a rain barrel in your backyard. Cover it with a water permeable cloth to keep out insects and frogs, and position it under your gutter’s downspout to collect rainwater. Not only will you reduce your domestic water consumption, you’ll be able to give your garden the gift of Mother Nature’s bounty.

Catnip is entertaining for cats and owners alike! percent of cats react to catnip, but those are the only ones who filled out the questionnaire honestly. Kittens fewer than 3 months of age do not react, nor does it seem to have an affect on old cats. In fact it is an inherited reaction and so some cats and their offspring will never react to catnip. Cats release the chemical nepetlactone when they bruise the leaves and stems by rubbing against them. The chemical is in-
haled and the fun begins. They may roll around on the ground, paw at the plants, lick them and chew them. Every cat responds differently. Eating the plant may cause drooling, anxiety, hissing or sleepiness. No worries though; catnip is not toxic. These reactions usually last a few minutes then the cat appears to lose interest. It may return to the plants in a couple of hours and have some fun again. I would suggest plant-
ing your catnip patch in an area by itself. Nepeta is a vigorous plant, plus who wants a bunch of drunken cats partying it up next to your prize Fern-leaf Peony. I have to hand it to cats. At least they have the sense to roll around in an aromatic herb, whereas, dogs love old fish carcasses!

$ Hi Amy
By Jean Atkinson Richbar Golf and Gardens This article goes against my grain, so to speak, as cats and I don’t exactly see eye to eye. In fact, I’m so allergic to them my eyes are getting itchy just thinking about them. But, I will take one for the team. Richbar Nursery does grow Catnip and the plant does have an interesting background, so for the sake of cat lovers out there – here goes. Catnip, Nepeta cataria, is a hardy (zone 3) perennial herb with white flowers, blooming mid to late summer. It resembles mint with its greyish green leaves and grows to an average height of 75cm. Plant it in sun or partial sun. Plant it for your cat, but also for your own entertainment. You’ll get a kick out of watching them roll around in it. It’s a recreational drug for cats. So far, it is still legal. Cats can enter the United States even if they have previously dabbled in it. Catnip does not affect all cats. Only 70
