With all shapes, sizes and textures of cloud formations and shimmering colours ranging and changing from pale blues to soft and brilliant pinks, to rolling crimson and a deep blood red at sunset, the skies over Williams Lake were a thrill to watch at sunset Tuesday evening delivering one of the most amazingly artistic spectacles that mother nature can deliver.

City responds to rural fire protection inquiries The City of Williams Lake has received numerous inquiries from both city and rural residents about continuation of rural fire protection services after Jan. 1, 2013. “The process of finding an equitable solution to rural fire protection services has been a complex and challenging one. Negotiations with the Cariboo Regional District were difficult
and inconclusive,” the city stated in a press release issued Thursday morning. “There was extensive deliberation and debate by council, and decisions were not unanimous. “Consistent among all members of council was the intent to continue the service, and ensure residents were not without fire protection.” The city made an offer to the
CRD within the bounds of the costs outlined in the referendum question, which the CRD did not accept. This left the city unable to offer the service without an agreement in place, due to significant insurance concerns and liability risk. The Dec. 21 Supreme Court of B.C. injunction allows the service to continue to April 30 without a long-term agreement.
So nice to come home to. Call today to schedule a personal visit 250.305.1131 williamslakeseniorsvillage.com
“The city’s relationship with the Cariboo Regional District is very important, and we want to have a positive, constructive one,” says Mayor Kerry Cook. “The city and CRD have important business to do together, and the city is committed to find ways to do that business in a respectful manner. “I’m confident that it can happen on this issue as well.”

NEWS Saying goodbye to Cosmo
I am feeling a bit melancholy today. Not only has Christmas ended and the kids returned home, but the dog has died, making the nest feel even emptier than usual. We only found out about Cosmo’s heart condition a few weeks ago. It was still in the early stages; so much so that we hadn’t even started medication for it. Then on a Saturday she started acting a bit off. Instead of bustling about on her usual rounds she settled down in her bed and stayed there. Not only was she acting lethargic but her breathing seemed to be more labored than usual. I phoned the vet and made an appointment for Monday. Cosmo had wolfed down her breakfast with her normal en-

thusiasm, so although we were concerned, it didn’t seem like an emergency. We just thought she might have to start the heart medicine earlier than anticipated. On Sunday morning she was worse. She barely sniffed her breakfast, only lapped up a bit of water and then returned to her bed. Since the office was closed I phoned the emergency vet and arranged to meet her at the clinic.
I put Cosmo inside her travel kennel and we headed to town. Twenty minutes later, when we arrived at the clinic, Cosmo was dead. And so begins the cycle of grief and guilt. I will always feel badly that I didn’t recognize how serious her condition was soon enough. Cosmo was 13 years old. The lifespan of Shih Tzus is between 10 and 16 years so she did well, I suppose. And I think she had a good life, though sometimes it was hard to tell. I hate to speak ill of the dead, but there’s no getting around it... Cosmo was not the brightest biscuit in the box. When she was a puppy I built a small pond in the garden. As we stood around admiring it Cosmo came trotting along and

without so much as pausing for a sniff, she walked right into the water and promptly sunk like a stone. We fished her out only to have her repeat the performance five minutes later. We got rid of the pond. By the time she was one it was apparent that Cosmo’s homing instinct was as nonexistent as her swimming skills. If you took her outside she would wander off and then simply sit down until someone found her. After searching for her for two days, only to find her sitting in the hayfield 200 metres from our front door, her prowling privileges were revoked. After that she was only allowed outside for daily walks on a leash. Every once in awhile
she would manage to escape either by wriggling out of her collar or by dashing out an open door or when someone accidentally left the gate to her pen off the deck ajar. We always managed to track her down, though sometimes it took several days and the help of kind hearted neighbours. I am sure Caesar Milan would have had a solution, but our own dog whispering skills were sadly lacking. Pets – even the notso-bright ones - have a way of threading themselves through the very fabric of your day in ways you don’t even realize until they’re gone. When I take a package of cheese out of the fridge it feels strange not to hear Cosmo firing herself off the couch like she just departed from a
AN APPLE A DAY... Recently, an analysis was done on Beethoven’s hair (its provenance was reliable) and was found to contain an extremely high level of lead. He lost his hearing at the age of 42, showed bipolar symptoms mentally and had life long abdominal pains. These problems can be attributed to too much lead in the body. As our population ages, it’s quite possible you may see someone having a stroke. Since quick treatment is important to minimize long term trauma, it’s important to recognize if a stroke is occurring. Ask three questions: 1) Can you raise your arms and keep them up? 2) Can you smile? 3) Can you speak a simple sentence? If a person has trouble doing any of these tasks, call 911 right away. Brain cancer is often extremely hard to treat. When surgery is indicated, it is sometimes difficult to tell the cancer cells from regular cells in the brain. There’s a new drug called Gliolan which is taken a few hours before surgery. This drug will deposit in the brain cells and cells of the tumour and when a certain wave length of light is shone on the brain, the cancer cells glow red. It helps the surgeon immensely. The term “blood thinners” is used to describe anticoagulant drugs like warfarin. The drug doesn’t actually thin the blood. It works by slowing down the clotting mechanism in the blood so there is less danger of the formation of dangerous blood clots.

cannon. When I sit down in the evening my lap feels empty...and cold. When I get up in the morning there is no bundle of fur bouncing about my ankles waiting for breakfast. Yesterday I set up the ironing board and unexpectedly burst into tears. Not because I hate ironing – which I do – but because Cosmo hated it even more. There was something about the grating sound of metal when the ironing board opened up that drove her crazy. She would come catapulting from wherever she was in the house and launch herself at the metal legs; a snarling, yipping, ball of fury. It was the only thing that made her act that way. Even a moose walk-
ing past her pen failed to catch her attention the way the ironing board could. I even miss the snoring. Spoiled beyond comprehension, Cosmo had not one, but three dog beds strewn about the house. Come nightfall she usually shunned them all in favour of the couch; the couch that rests against the thin wall of our bedroom. I would hear her jump onto the couch, turn three times and settle down with a contented sigh. Then I would desperately try to get to sleep before the snoring started. Some nights both Darcy and Cosmo would snore in concerto while I stared at the ceiling. It’s the little things I miss. But most of all, it’s the little dog who lived here.

HD mining must disclose documents for judicial review A nationally recognized expert lawyer argued Wednesday, Jan. 9 in the Federal Court of Canada that Cabinet Minister Diane Finley has both the power and responsibility to demand HD Mining disclose documents sought for a judicial review of Temporary Foreign Workers permits for Chinese coal miners in BC. Toronto immigration lawyer Lorne Waldman was representing BC’s Building Trades unions in arguments that Human Resources and Skills Development Canada Minister Diane Finley must compel Chinese-owned HD Mining
to disclose documents sought by the unions to prove that qualified Canadian workers were not given jobs in Tumbler Ridge. “The Minister clearly has the power to demand documents and the responsibility to follow a Court order,” Waldman argued. “Behind all this case law is an ongoing duty to provide documents…..the inherent powers of the minister to enforce legislation.” Building Trades’ affiliates the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 115 and the Construction and Specialized Workers Union Local 1611 filed
a contempt of court application after Finley’s ministry refused to force HD Mining to obey a Federal Court order to disclose resume information from 300 Canadians who applied for jobs in Tumbler Ridge but not hired. On Wednesday Justice Michael Manson decided to first hear an application from the federal Department of Justice arguing for a “variance” of the Federal Court disclosure order, which puts the union contempt application in abeyance until Manson rules early next week whether Finley has to power to compel HD Mining to obey
the order. “Bringing Diane Finley into court isn’t our objective, getting the documents is,” Waldman argued. Waldman has been named by Canadian Lawyer magazine as one of the country’s 25 most influential lawyers. He was co-counsel representing Maher Arar in the public inquiry into Arar’s deportation from the United States to Syria, where he was tortured. IUOE Local 115 Business Manager Brian Cochrane says the Building Trades unions reluctantly filed the contempt application against Finley
Auditor General opens local office British Columbia’s first office of the Auditor General for Local Government (AGLG) has opened its doors, announced Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development Bill Bennett Thursday with B.C.’s first AGLG Basia Ruta alongside. Recommended by the five-member Audit Council that oversees the office and subsequently
appointed by government, Ruta took up her position on Jan. 15. The AGLG will conduct performance audits of local government operations and provide recommendations regarding economy, efficiency and effectiveness. The opening of the office fulfils a commitment made by Premier Christy Clark as part of her Families First agen-
da. It is also an example of how the government listens to British Columbians, as the idea was originally suggested by B.C. business groups to provide an additional level of accountability and transparency for taxpayers. The first audits will begin by April 30. It will be up to the AGLG to choose what local government opera-
tions to focus on within the framework of the Auditor General for Local Government Act. The AGLG will publish an annual service plan that will lay out the goals and objectives for the coming year and the following two years. The annual service plan will include the criteria used to determine the need for and priority of performance audits.

Heart of a Warrior Conference Feb. 1 JEREMY VOGT If you are a man, you understand that life is a battle. Chances are pretty good that you lead a busy life putting food on the table. You do way more than 9 to 5 – whatever it takes to care for your own. You’re in overdrive, racing to make sure you meet your responsibilities.
But you are more than a worker bee and life is more than a rat race. Life is a battle, you are taking fire from all sides, and you want victory. When the work day is done and the house is quiet, you wonder about your life. Is this fight worth it or should I surrender? Am I a wimp or a warrior? Will I ever find victory in the battles and struggles of my life? This probably sounds
familiar to you, and now a group of local men are challenging you to come find strength and victory in the fight of your life. They are inviting you to attend The Heart of a Warrior Conference on February 1-2 at the Gibraltar Room. This conference features international leader Dr. Ted Roberts. The Heart Of A Warrior Conference is designed by Ted to of-
fer practical tools and inspiration for men who need a battle plan to conquer internal enemies—enemies that hinder them from being everything they are meant to be. Ted uses the best insights from counseling and the science of neurochemistry, as well as wisdom from the Bible to forge a path out of shame, awakening the heart of a champion in countless men.
The Heart Of A Warrior conference happens at the Gibraltar Room Friday, Feb., 1 from 5:30 to 9 p.m. (doors open at 5 p.m.) and continues Saturday, Feb. 2 from 9 a.m. to noon. Cost is $25 at the door (covers materials). Friday evening begins with a pizza dinner. If you have questions about the conference you can email dmc5@ telus.net or call 250267-7670. You can vis-
it www.conquerseries. com to find out more about Dr. Roberts.

Something peculiar is happening in our city. Roman Catholic, Christian Reformed, Evangelical Free, Mennonite Brethren, Pentecostal, Alliance, Seventh Day and Everyday Christians have been coming around the same table every month— without fighting or accusing one another of heresy. This group has actually been talking, praying, encouraging one another, studying the bible together, and dreaming of God’s solutions to some of this community’s toughest issues. This peculiar little group is known as the Williams Lake Christian Leaders Network. Businesspeople, educators, social workers, city workers, church leaders and other invested citizens from our community have been building bridges of unity and common purpose at the CLN for more than a year and a half. The WLCLN would like to invite you to join the conversation at a luncheon this Thursday, January 24th from Noon to 1:30pm in the Signal Point Bingo Hall. Buffet lunch costs $10. Unity is a powerful but often elusive concept. The dictionary defines unity as “the state of harmony or agreement between people.” History shows that humans are not very adept at achieving it. When unity is present, people willingly move together toward
PARSONS PEN
BY JEREMY VOGT common beneficial purposes. It is characterized by mutual respect, patient cooperation, and active concern for the wellbeing of others. Unity is different than uniformity (which abhors differences). Unity can appreciate and even celebrate distinctiveness. Jesus, the Founder of Christianity, prayed to the Father just before his crucifixion: “that they [followers of Jesus] may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them...” (Matthew 17:23, NASB95). Unity between Christians is a sign of the
reality of Jesus and the Love of God. The Apostle Paul encouraged the churches of his time to “Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called…” (Ephesians 4:34, NIV). From God’s perspective there really is only one true church, expressed through local churches and comprised of the global collection of people who trust Jesus as Savior and follow Him as Lord— no matter where or when they attend ‘church’. Obviously, we cannot see God’s perspective. What we can see, however, is a number of local churches and Christians coming together in harmony. And it is truly beautiful! The CLN believes this kind of unity is crucial if we expect to offer real help and hope to hurting people facing serious challenges in this city and region. The vision of the CLN is simple and compelling: “The CLN exists to unite the whole church to love the whole community with the whole Gospel of Jesus Christ.” The CLN believes YOU belong at the table, you have a role to play and you have a contribution to make. Please come hear and share the vision this Thursday.

SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 27 (CARIBOO-CHILCOTIN)
Auditor offered two-year extension TOM FLETCHER Black Press Premier Christy Clark wants to amend the Auditor General Act to offer John Doyle a two-year extension of his term, due to end this year. Clark told a news conference in Vancouver Wednesday that she has asked the three B.C. Liberal MLAs on the selection committee to offer the extension to Doyle, as they prepared to meet Wednesday with the two NDP MLAs on the committee. Clark said the amendments would change the B.C. auditor-general’s term to a non-renewable eight-year term, to avoid controversy as politicians vote on their own financial watchdog. The move is patterned after the federal government, which appoints auditorsgeneral to a single 10year term. NDP leader Adrian Dix has said his caucus was unanimous in seek-
ing Doyle’s reappointment. All five MLAs on the committee must be unanimous for that to happen, and their votes and reasons are officially secret due to personnel privacy restrictions. The selection committee is expected to meet again Friday to discuss the proposed extension. If they support the idea, it would be proposed to Doyle. The committee chair, Vernon-Monashee MLA Eric Foster, was the subject of a random audit that raised questions about his constituency office renovations. The other two B.C. Liberals who form the majority are Chilliwack MLA John Les and Peace River South MLA Blair Lekstrom, both of whom are not seeking re-election in May. Burnaby-Deer Lake MLA Kathy Corrigan and Surrey-Whalley MLA Bruce Ralston represent the NDP on the committee.

Kindergarten Registration 2013-14 Registration for Kindergarten will begin on January 29, 2013. Children beginning Kindergarten must be five years of age by December 31, 2013. Children presently enrolled in Kindergarten do not need to re-register for Grade One. A birth certificate (or other proof of age) and presentation of the BC “Care Card” is required at registration. Students will normally register at the school in their attendance area. Parents not sure of their attendance area are requested to contact the nearest elementary school, the School District Office (250-398-3800) or the website at www.sd27.bc.ca If you wish your child to attend a school other than the one in your attendance area, please contact an elementary school or the School District Office at 250-398-3800 for the School of Choice process and application.
Opposition MLAs cite Doyle’s reports criticizing the recent buildup of BC Hydro debt and the state of B.C.’s forest inventory in the wake of a devastating pine beetle epidemic as likely reasons why Doyle wasn’t reappointed. Doyle is also leading a court action seeking release of detailed defence lawyer billings for former ministerial aides Dave Basi and Bobby Virk, whose $6 million
in legal costs were covered by the province after they pleaded guilty
to breach of trust in the 2002 sale of BC Rail operations.
The deadline for School of Choice applications is March 15, 2013.

Inconvenient truth of oil pollution
B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER
A study of six northern Alberta lakes conducted by Environment Canada and other scientists was published last week, generating headlines around the world. “Oil sands toxins ‘accumulate in freshwater systems,’” the BBC announced. The headline in The New York Times declared: “Oil sands industry in Canada tied to higher carcinogen level.” The study was reported with similar alarm across Canada. It looked at levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in lakebed sediment, and found levels measurably higher than natural sources since oil sands extraction began 50 years ago. Most news reports I saw made little or no effort to put this information into context, in terms of the actual risk to humans, fish and other organisms. Some quoted people they knew would scream bloody murder, because as we in the media are taught, conflict and fear attract an audience. As expected, U.S. environmental groups and their Canadian branch offices ramped up the rhetoric to battle their favourite villain. At least one major Canadian newspaper, The Globe and Mail, did a responsible job.
Its report on the study stated “PAH pollution level remains low – on par, at worst, with an urban lake – but is rising.” In fact, five of six lakes tested were far below average contamination of urban lakes. PAH fallout is a daily constant of urban life, from vehicles, industry, and particularly where coal is burned for electricity. To be clear, there are dozens of different forms of PAH. Some have been shown to increase cancer risk, and some have been linked to
(but not proven to cause) infertility, immune disorders and fish mutations. So when you drive your kids to school, stand at the bus stop, or drink a glass of water from Coquitlam Lake or any urban reservoir, you are exposed to PAH pollution from human and natural sources. The risk from this is an ongoing focus of research, but this study confirms one thing: your exposure is likely greater in any urban area than it is downwind of the Alberta oil sands. I argued this point with B.C.’s celebrity environ-
mentalist Tzeporah Berman, who has shuttled back and forth from ForestEthics to Greenpeace in recent years. She took to her Facebook page to publicize a dramatic call to action from 350 .org, one of the most strident climate change advocacy groups in the U.S., selectively using a quote and picture from The New York Times. Our debate turned to greenhouse gas emissions. I argued that this PAH study mirrors the true picture of carbon dioxide emissions, which is that nearly 70 per cent of CO2 from all petroleum comes when you burn
the final product in engines and furnaces. In B.C., which doesn’t burn coal for electricity, fully 40 per cent of humancaused greenhouse gas emissions are from transportation. Other sources include home heating and industry. Berman insisted I was wrong, and claimed 70 per cent of Canada’s greenhouse gases come from “heavy industry.” I asked for her source. No response. A 2010 report by a Royal Society of Canada expert panel calculated that 27 per cent of our country’s fossil
fuel emissions come from transportation. Another 16 per cent is from fuels burned for electricity. Five per cent is from oil sands operations. Berman’s figure is conveniently untrue. Greenpeace and the rest of the environmental scare industry want you to believe that stopping Alberta’s oil sands and pipelines would save the planet. Also wrong. It would drive oil demand from the U.S., Venezuela’s oil sands and elsewhere, with little net effect on the climate or pollution.

Mushroom picking workshop If you have ever thought about picking mushrooms to eat the free workshop coming up with the Williams Lake Field Naturalists might be a great place to start learning about which mushrooms are
safe to eat. Bill and Louisa Chapman will conduction the workshop at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 22. In preparation for a spring outing, this evening training will include information on how to
distinguish mushrooms using mushroom keys as well as what, when and where to collect mushrooms for eating in the Cariboo area. It will also include information on how to use the Matchmaker elec-
tronic key, which can be downloaded at www. svims.ca/council/matchmaker.htm for those who want to practice ahead and recommendation for David Arora’s Mushrooms Demystified.
Bill and Louisa will also talk a bit about cooking mushrooms and perhaps show how to prepare some commercial mushrooms. To register call 250398-8532 or shemhill@ midbc.com
Depression – the way out, workshop LERAE HAYNES Rita Corbett is an instructor at a unique workshop coming to Williams Lake this month: one that deals with something that can change who you are, how to feel and how you relate to important persons in your life. The workshop is Depression—the way out, described by Corbett as “a mental health education program with scientific credence for everything in it.” The workshop starts on Jan. 28 and goes through March 18, with participants meeting for eight Monday nights and then doing work on their own for 12 further weeks with support and backup. “The guy who originated this workshop, internist Dr. Neil Nedley, divided it into 10 ‘hits’ or categories of things that cause depression,” Corbett says. “These include things like genetics, developmental issues, whether you were raised by both of your biological parents, unresolved or recent grief, nutrition, lifestyle, frontal lobe issues
Instructor Rita Corbett is bringing a unique depression workshop to Williams Lake starting Jan. 28. Gaeil Farrar photo such as brain injuries, and addiction issues,” Corbett explained. “You need four ‘hits’ to be categorized as de-
pressed. What we do in the workshop is take the ones we can modify and get rid of them. Everyone has some of these things, but if we can modify the ones we can change, we lessen the number of hits until we’re not depressed.” She explained that they get doctor referrals for the workshop, and added that people come to the workshop because it works. “People are sick of side effects and failure and they don’t know what else to do. “Anyone can take the workshop, and literally anyone will benefit from it, even the teacher,” she continued. “It’s a mental health education course where you learn to get the most from your brain.

Public Advisory Notice Cariboo Region Lake Aerators
The British Columbia Conservation Foundation (BCCF), under contract to the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, advises that commencing in December lake aerators will be in operation on: • Irish Lake • Skulow Lake • Higgins Lake • Simon Lake The purpose of the lake aeration program is to minimize fish mortality associated with reduced oxygen levels during the winter months on lakes at high risk. During periods of operation, the aerator units will create areas of open water and weak ice. The BCCF would like to remind residents to stay away from safety fencing placed around the aerators. Also, as a reminder to anglers, it is unlawful to fish within 100m of any active aeration unit (see pg. 10, BC Freshwater Fishing Regulations Synopsis). Please direct questions or comments regarding aerator operation to: Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Williams Lake (Cariboo) 400 - 640 Borland St. Williams Lake, BC V2G 4T1 Telephone: 250-398-4530 Facsimile: 250-398-4214
sion, or are a caretaker or loved one, you can benefit.” Depression is not a bad attitude, according to Corbett. “Attitude makes a difference, but they’ve discovered that before depressive symptoms start, brain scans show that there is reduced circulation and function in the frontal lobes,” she noted. Positive nutrition is one of the most important areas of understanding for depressed people, she said, and added that it’s a matter of tweaks: a little more of this and a little less of that. “Dr. Nedley often says, ‘Isn’t it strange that in a time when we have so many more fun
things to do than we’ve ever had before, we have more depression than ever?’ “I think we have far more understanding and less accountability in society; people grow up wanting to be helped and understood, but wanting less to direct their own lives. “This workshop gives you the tools to take charge of your mental health. It often surprises people that the answers are so easy. It’s not expensive,” she explained, “and the only side effect is happiness.” For more information about the workshop phone Rita at 250-3926598 or email her at ritakc123@gmail.com
REALTOR TIPS Detouring dangerous wildlife from our homes Deer, bears, cougars and coyotes can pose a serious threat to both human and pets. Wildlife is very unpredictable, so we need to find ways to deter them from endangering our family and property. Safety tips: • Have tight fitting garbage can lids or bear-proof containers • You may want to store garbage cans in your basement or closed garage • Electric fences – they are portable, quick to set-up, and available powered by solar electricity • Keep fish, meat and bones in freezer until garbage pickup day • Clean barbeques – they produce tempting odours • Sprinkle natural predator urine around your property – purchased at some garden stores • Add agricultural lime to compost piles to help speed up the decomposing process and reduce smell that attract bears

THE PHYSICAL SIDE OF IT
Curves® of Williams Lake introduces new weight loss program that burns more fat than diet alone
New Curves Complete® includes exercise, meal plans, and coaching - for as low as $14.95 a week and no joining fee! Curves of Williams Lake knows that most people who are serious about losing weight know that they won’t get the results they want by just dieting. They also need to exercise and they need encouragement to stick to the plan. This was the thinking behind the revolutionary new weight loss program Curves Complete® - the only program of its kind on the market that offers exercise, customized meal plans, and coaching in one integrated program. And, the cost is comparable to what other programs charge for diet alone. What makes the program so successful? “It’s really as simple as 1-23, said Curves’ Registered Dietitian Nadia Rodman. “The Curves circuit gives you strength and cardio training to protect your muscles and burn fat, our proven nutrition plan is fully customizable to your lifestyle, and your Curves coach helps you set goals and reach them one-onone. If you simply follow the plan - which you can print as a weekly tracking sheet and take to your coaching ses-
New owners/managers Anne Schonke & her daughter Kirstyn Jorde sions - you simply can’t help but lose. Or rather, win.” Preliminary results of Curves members who participated in the program prior to its January public launch have been phenomenal. Findings indicate that nearly 100 percent of weight lost on Curves Complete is body fat, compared to conventional diets in which weight lost typically includes up to 30 percent muscle tissue. By preserving lean muscle, Curves Complete helps maintain or even boost the body’s metabolism for better long term results. Curves Complete is the culmination of years of research involving thousands of study participants. “Ninety-five percent of dieters fail - or lose weight only to gain it all back - not because there’s
something wrong with them, but because there’s something wrong with conventional diets,” said Curves’ Director of Exercise & Research Katie Mitchell. “It takes a combination of three things: exercise, diet, and coaching, or motivation, to successfully lose weight as body fat rather than lean muscle and then keep it off.” “The success of the program hinges on the Curves Complete coaches, Certified by Cleveland Clinic,” says Mitchell. “After all, it doesn’t matter how much you know about proper diet and exercise - if you don’t have the motivation and accountability to follow through with them, the knowledge is useless. Curves collaborated with the prestigious Cleveland Clinic, ranked among the top four

Film Club screens The Intouchables
The film The Intouchables is France’s entry into the Best Foreign Language Film at the 85th Academy Awards 2013 and will be shown here on Tuesday. does get the job, on a try-out basis. The jailbird and the millionaire click, and Driss brings some new things into Phillipe’s life. Like taking him on fast rides around town, introducing him to marijuana, cracking quadriplegic jokes, and so much more. Even more amazing is that this film is based on a true story. Philippe, played by Francois Cluzet, was the CEO of the well-known Champagne Vineyard Pommery. His real name is Philippe Pozzo di Borgo. After his horrible accident he needed a caretaker around the clock and he chose 21-year
old Algerian Abdel Yasmin Sellou, who just got out of jail. He actually ended up working for Phillippe for 10 years and they developed a deep friendship. They travelled together many, many times and ended up living not too far from each other; Philippe
with his second wife and two daughters in Morocco and Sellou with his wife and three children in Algiers. The real Philippe and Sellou are introduced at the end of the film. The film is based on the autobiography of Pozzo di Borgo, which was published in France in 2001 titled Le second souffle (The second Breath). One of Pozzo di Borgo’s conditions when making this film was that five percent of the proceeds shall be donated to his foundation for the handicapped, called Simon von Cyrene. So far the foundation has received about one million Euros. And this means that the proceeds of our screening next Tuesday, Jan. 22, will benefit two causes, mainly the LDA, the Williams Lake Chapter of the Association for Students with Learning Disabilities, and the Foundation for the Handicapped.

And now for something simple, absolutely crowd pleasing. That is the film presented by the Williams Lake Film Club next Tuesday, Jan. 22, at the Gibraltar Room, 7 p.m. Back doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the Gibraltar Room is located in the Cariboo Memorial Complex by Boitanio Park. The Intouchables has broken box office records in its native France and across Europe. The film is the official entry of France to the Best Foreign Language Film at the 85th Academy Awards 2013 and is one of the selected five contenders. Because it is such fun to watch. However, that does not mean it is a piece of fluff. The film does touch on serious subjects like immigration, poverty, and severe physical disability. But it does this in such a manner that you are thoroughly entertained all the way through the story. And the story is this: newcomer Omar Sy plays Driss, just out of jail and trying to collect welfare. But first he has to prove that he is trying to get a job. So he casually applies as caregiver to a wealthy quadriplegic, Philippe. To his surprise and indignation he actually

TUDOR-STYLE BRACING IN THE GABLES This attractive, low-slung, side-by-side duplex features a traditional exterior with bay windows and decorative Tudor-style bracing in the gables. Inside, however, all the amenities are sure to please a contemporary family. The covered entry leads into a roomy foyer, with a triangular display case for collectibles in a niche just in front of the coat closet. Directly ahead are the open-plan great room, dining area and kitchen. The great room includes a gas fireplace which, set at an angle, will cast its rosy glow as far as the kitchen. A door from the corner dining area opens to a covered patio, ideal for al fresco dining during the warmer months. Natural light will flood into both rooms through floor-toceiling windows. The kitchen is separated from the great room by a sixsided eating bar fitted with a double sink. The L-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook, who will also appreciate the handy pantry. The master suite, overlooking the back garden, features a window seat, ideal for curling up with a good book. The walk-in closet is roomy enough for a couple’s clothes and accessories. In addition there’s a compact three-piece ensuite. The small second bedroom, situated close to the master suite, would accommodate a small child. Next to this bedroom is the laundry room. With access to the double garage, it will double as a mud room. The den, located immediately left of the entrance
foyer, can serve as a third bedroom, thanks to its closet. This room also boasts a built-in desk and an extra-wide window sill that overlooks the front garden. Ceilings throughout are nine feet high. Exterior finishes include painted trim, horizontal siding with brick below, brick pilasters and brick accents flanking the garage doors. Each home includes 1,290 square feet of living room.

Jill McLennan Jennings
June 10, 1957 - December 15, 2012 It is with great sadness that the family announces the death of Jill McLennan Jennings, at the age of 55 years, after a courageous battle with breast cancer. Jill died peacefully on December 15, 2012 at her home in Lac La Hache, BC surrounded by her loving family. Jill was born on June 10, 1957 in Elk Lake, ON to John and Elaine McLennan. She was the eldest of their four children and always took care of her younger siblings. Not surprisingly, she became a nurse. Jill was knowledgeable and always supportive of her coworkers. Her bright smile, positive outlook and caring heart, were a comfort to the patients that she came in contact with during her career. Jill will be lovingly remembered by her daughter Lauren, twin sons Kent and Scott, by her parents John and Elaine, her sisters Lorri Spaans (son Kyle and partner Brent Field), Patti Lucas (daughters Kristen, Alicia and husband Brian) and her brother Chris McLennon (sons Rylend, Brodan and Connor). Jill will be sadly missed by her partner Pete Neuner and his family of British Columbia (his son Clayton, daughter-in-law Jillian and grandson Easton, his daughter Tanya, grandson Braeden and twin granddaughters Mackenzie and Kaia). She was a cherished niece of Mickey and Joanne Major and Claude and Bertha Pellerin. In addition, she will be missed by many cousins, aunts and uncles and will be fondly remembered by Loretta Jennings and her family. Jill had many friends that she met while living in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia that will miss her dearly. These include her nursing friends from college, nursing friends and colleagues in BC and Alberta, neighbours and people she met and worked with in the communities of High Prairie, AB, Fort Frances & Kenora, ON and Williams Lake & Lac La Hache, BC. Jill will also be missed by her Yellow Lab, Kobe and her cat Buster. She dearly loved all the animals that she and Pete raised on their “ranch” in Lac La Hache. She particularly loved their cow “Forrest”, her cat Gizmo, her chickens, the horses and many other animals that they often rescued. The family would like to gratefully acknowledge all the flowers, visits, donations, masses, prayers, food, phone calls and cards that were given to us by family, friends and neighbours to comfort us during this difficult time. Your kindness and generosity was greatly appreciated. The funeral arrangements, which were handled by LaPrairie’s Alternative Funeral Services of Williams Lake, took place on December 20, 2012. Donations to the SPCA, or the BC Cancer Foundation, bccancerfoundation.com, will be gratefully acknowledged by the family. Jill’s family will hold a celebration to honour her life in the spring of 2013 in Ontario.

Do you have a NON-performing asset? Want to change your cash flow? Our team has a 10 year track record & several thousand customers that have come from the company.
YOU TOO CAN ENJOY SUCCESS!! Nobody starts a business from home with the intent of failing. I know that. Yet 9 out of 10 do not continue, and of those that do, very few are truly successful. Like so many, I gave up. But what would you do if you heard of a business model like this? Consider. This business has no store location, no inventory, no shipping, no office overhead, no staff, no territory, no selling, creates cash flow quickly, and with excellent return on the dollar. It also solves the Home Entrepreneur’s biggest problem. What is that? Finding customers! The company makes customers available to Independent Business owners. The company does the advertising and we share that cost - so it’s a 100% advertising expense. As long as they shop, you get a commission. And by the way, 90% of the income to the company is from customers. The company takes orders, ships to customers and delivers catalouges and magazines to our customers at no cost to us. We have access to a professional Business Services Team for any support needed. I am enjoying business success because of being able to partner with the company in the acquisition of customers and with others of like mind, and similar bigger-than-average goals. Now you know what I did. What will you do? Call me.
