Milk thistle
Milk thistle, a biblical plant is commonly known as St. Mary’s thistle, lady’s thistle and holy thistle. (This herb should not be confused with blessed thistle). It is found almost in all parts of the world. In fact, it is a common weed. It has been used as food and as medicine for treating liver disorders for over 2000 years. A flavonoid complex (silybin, silidianin, and silychristin) collectively called silymarin is the key ingredient of milk thistle (seeds) and is believed to be the biologically active component. For the same reason milk thistle is also called silymarin. In the past this herb was used for treating jaundice and to improve milk production in nursing mothers. Today there is reasonable evidence that this herb is useful for conditions like liver inflammation caused by virus or alcohol and cirrhosis (not in advanced cirrhosis). The herb is used for treating condition like viral hepatitis, breast cancer, cervical cancer, prostate cancer, diabetes, and high cholesterol. It is also known to protect the liver against drug and toxins. These beneficial effects, however, need more qualitative research to confirm the benefits. A good milk thistle product should contain approximately 70 to 80% silymarin. A standard dosage of milk thistle is about 200mg, 2 to 3 times a day. However, different liver conditions need different dosages, so it is best to take under supervision of a physician. This herb is relatively safe and relatively low incidence of gastrointestinal effects has been observed. There have been some reports of allergic reactions. Milk thistle does interact with certain medication, so it’s best to consult your doctor before taking it. People taking medication for treating diabetes orally or by injections should closely monitor blood sugar level, as milk thistle can further lower blood sugar. Close medical supervision may be needed to adjust diabetic medication.

We are exposed to estrogens in our environment from the food we eat and chemicals we use. ‘Xeno’ (meaning “foreign”) estrogens can be either synthetic or natural compounds that imitate estrogen. Xenoestrogens are found in food additives and ingredients, as well as in cosmetics, plastics, and insecticides. These substances can increase the estrogen load in the body over time, and are difficult to detoxify through the liver. Most scientists that study xenoestrogens regard them as environmental hazards with hormonally disruptive effects on humans and wildlife. Increased estrogen load from these environmental hormone disrupters
cause a hormonal imbalance in women and men. Some symptoms are irregular menstruation, weight gain, hair loss, depression, fatigue, joint and muscle pain, and thyroid dysfunction, to name a few. Sulforaphane (from broccoli sprout extract) stimulates the body’s production of detoxification enzymes that eliminate toxic estrogens. Curcumin is considered a powerful liver detoxifier. Indole-3-carbinol, a plant nutrient found in cruciferous vegetables, halts the conversion of good estrogens to bad estrogens. Calcium D-glucarate is a powerful detoxifier of excess and toxic estrogen, and supports healthy hormone metabolism.

Glucosamine
A 2012 study published in the journal Therapeutic Advances in Musculoskeletal Disease explains why all doctors should be recommending glucosamine sulfate in the management of osteoarthritis. The main reason is that glucosamine sulfate helps block the release of inflammatory chemicals in the body and it is the only substance known to block the destruction of joint cartilage. This blocking of cartilage destruction was confirmed and shown in pre and post x-ray studies. Another important fact is that all people over 40 years of age begin to lose the ability to synthesize sufficient amounts of cartilage material (chondroitin sulfate). So, based on the above reasons, every person over 40 years of age should supplement with at least 500mg of glucosamine sulfate per day to prevent osteoarthritis. Patients with known osteoarthritis require a more therapeutic dosage of 1500mg per day. The highest quality
product we carry in the office called AR-Encap is produced by Thorne, and it also contains MSM, boswellia, and curcumin which are all important for healthy joints. Chiropractic is also an essential part of one’s strategy to mange osteoarthritis. We take digital spinal x-rays in our in our office and unfortunately frequently find spinal degeneration in the joints and discs. When joints are under physical stress due to alignment problems they will wear faster. So, along with nutritional support, we recommend chiropractic care in order to reduce the postural stresses on the spinal joints in order to halt the degenerative process. If you think (or know) you may have some osteoarthritis in one or more joints in your body and are looking for some natural strategies to manage it, come in and have an assessment by one of our chiropractors at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 803-0224.

Warm weather means higher flood risk
The warmer weather that the Shuswap region has been hoping for during the past several weeks is now upon us. Unfortunately, in the emergency management arena, such warmer weather now increases the rate of melt of the snowpacks, and also quickly dries out the trees and forest floor, prompting the potential of two emergency response issues – freshet flooding, and the start of a wildfire season for the Shuswap Emergency Program. Wildfire season has already commenced in the more arid regions that surround the Shuswap, but already here locally, there have been several human caused grass fires, so a wildfire season for the Shuswap is not far off. For the coming weeks, if you do not have to burn, don’t. Watch the size of your campfires, and ensure they are totally out when you retire or leave the area. While fireworks have been banned in many areas of the Shuswap, any setting off where permitted requires attentive and responsible actions to ensure they are not landing in and around forest or grass lands. Freshet means rapid high water in a water course, often causing flooding. If you live or are visiting near a stream or creek, remember that water flow can
rise quickly during this type of weather, and you need to take precautions. If visiting the area, make sure your family knows not to venture too close to bank edges. If you reside in the Shuswap and your property is prone to flooding, take the necessary measures now to protect structures, equipment, and materials. Residents are responsible for having a personal plan, as well as the tools and equipment necessary to protect their homes and properties (sand bagging for example). This is especially important if you reside near a watercourse or on a beachfront property which has historically been prone to high water. There are several commercial suppliers of sandbags and sand in the Shuswap area. While SEP has several stockpiles of sandbags, these stockpiles are maintained for emergency use only and will only be released for public use when actual flooding is occurring or is imminent to occur. Further info on flood preparedness – how to sand bag or creating a personal emergency kit, and much other info and links can be found at http://embc.gov. bc.ca/em/floods/preparedness.html.

UNIQUE MARRIAGE PROPOSAL IN SILVER CREEK
With permission from Chief Len Sarrazin of the Silver Creek fire department and the co-operation of his fellow firefighters, Chris Ross had them pull the trucks next door to the Silver Creek community park and gave them a huge sign that he painted with a roller on newsprint paper that said “Cheri, will you marry me.” In his firefighter’s jacket pocket he had a ring that had been his grandmas’, then was passed down to his mom and given to Chris a month ago. He gave Cheri an excuse to come to the park, led her to the trucks, and then gave the signal to unroll the banner. He wrote: “While her jaw dropped and her eyes got larger and larger, I assumed the position (down on one knee), gave her the ring and popped the question. When the boys heard her say Yes! they hit the air horns and sirens. After a very short celebration I sent her away because we had fire practice to attend to. I told her that duty calls, so I’d see her after practice.”
I’M RECOVERING FROM A SIX-YEAR SLUMP
I attended more meetings in 2013 than I did in all the years combined since I sold this paper in 2006. I attended so many meetings during the 31 years when I was an owner that I didn’t want to go to another. I spoke in public once in 2008 when I made a presentation in favour of the SmartCentres proposal at the city’s public hearing and I was boo’d. When roadblocks to the development continually came up, I stayed in the slump. But on March 7, 2013 when SmartCentres finally had the go-ahead, I was happier than anyone in Salmon Arm. I came out of hibernation and began attending annual general meetings of business organizations.
SHUSWAP PRO-DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION
This group advocates for businesses that plan to help Salmon Arm grow. The society was formed in 2009 by businesspeople who wanted to change the impression caused by
www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
a vocal group that was opposing a new shopping centre, by saying Salmon Arm is open for business. Projects the association advocated were SmartCentres, Askew’s Uptown, Downtown Community College, Club Shuswap, Green Emerald Investments, and various others that are still working their way through the system. At the AGM, after Thomas Welsh was at the helm for four years, he is now past-president, and Mel Arnold is president.
SALMON ARM CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
The mission of the chamber of commerce is to be the primary business network for its members who are businesses, professionals, residents and other community groups that work together to achieve a healthy economic and socio-economic environment that benefits the entire community. Its mission is achieved through the hard work and dedication of its members and staff who work in partnership with the community, B.C. Chamber of Commerce and Canadian Chamber of Commerce. President of the Salmon Arm Chamber is Jim Kimmerly.
DOWNTOWN SALMON ARM
Over 300 downtown Salmon Arm businesses and property owners are members of the Salmon Arm Downtown Improvement Association, located in the designated downtown area. The DIA’s main focus is to market, promote and increase the vibrancy of the downtown. It implemented a regional marketing strategy with Downtown Salmon Arm branding, and expanded social media presence by the use of Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter and YouTube. Its multi-purpose website is an information portal for community members and visitors to the area. Last year the DIA delivered 12 Wednesday on the Wharf concerts with the art gallery, plus lunch box concerts, jazz evenings at the plaza, and many more. Cookie Langenfeld is the president of the association.

Have you ever felt like one of your parents has come into the top of your head and you thought, “Oh my God, I have become my mother/father!” Maggie Reigh of Winfield (www.maggiereigh.com) wrote an article in www.okinhealth.com in which she said studies show that we will repeat 85 per cent of our parents’ behaviors unless we consciously choose to change them. “Awareness is the first step. Watch your children at play. Have you ever heard your child giving his or her doll or dog the very same lecture you dished out earlier? What about body language?”

CSRD fire officer training
www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
Twelve members in the fire service from throughout the Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) completed the internationally recognized Fire Officer 1 training course (NFPA 1021), and will in turn, assist in training the rest of the CSRD paid-on-call fire officers. “This will give us the tools to develop our own program,” says CSRD Fire Services Coordinator Kenn Mount. “We will develop our own internal Fire Officer training program within the Regional District that will focus on the needs of Officer training in the CSRD.” The Fire Officer I training course was comprised of two training modules. The first focused on the human resources side of managing a fire department: leadership, administration, writing and oral communication skills, behaviour management, and supervision. The second module focused on emergency scene management: identifying problems, building an incident action plan, creating strategic goals, developing tactical objectives and assigning the proper deployment of resources. “There is more to firefighting than taking water and putting it on the fire,” says Mr. Mount. “Structure fires can be very complex and when a fire department approaches an incident, there are several unknown factors. This training helps with the ability to do a proper assessment and effectively tackle a situation safely. Without a proper command structure and an incident action plan – that’s when firefighters can get hurt.” While all CSRD firefighters have basic firefighting training, the upcoming training modules will be geared for the 13 rural fire departments within the Regional District and their specific challenges. This initiative comes from the Fire Services Review that was done for the CSRD by Dave Mitchell & Associates Ltd. in 2009 which recommended more specific rural training. “By training the trainers and providing as much

The crazy things kids say… again!
Where do they come up with this stuff?! Just when you think you’ve heard it all; a kid will come up with some new tidbit that makes you laugh; often at your own expense. “Mom what’s a poser?” asked my junior bean counter. “Well, I guess it is a person who pretends to be someone they’re not,” my wife answered. “Sort of like Dad? He dresses ‘sporty’ a lot, but he doesn’t do much exercise!” he replied. “Umm… thanks for that” I so humbly responded. After explaining the importance of not calling people names and just being yourself; I did what any Dad would do… I went on a run. The only problem with the run was that it was even more humbling than being called a poser. The junior bean counter and his little brother wanted to come with me. Well, the junior bean counter blew me away. I am sure I was 250 metres behind him by the time he arrived home. Thankfully I brought my six- year-old Nate who isn’t quite as quick on his feet. The
Friday, May 10, 2013 Lakeshore News A7
kicker is, I barely kept up with him too. Okay, okay, I guess the kid was onto something. Later that day, Nate hit me with another interesting thought that only a kid could come up with. As we were driving downtown, he piped up from the back seat, “Dad, have you ever wondered why God named bees “bees”?” “I actually haven’t thought of that before,” I answered. “Or why did God name pizza, “pizza”?” he continued. “No, I never wondered about that either,” I replied. “Really? These are the types of things that going around in my brain all the time,” he answered. “I think that’s great Nate. Boy, your brain must get tired from working so hard,” I responded. So if you are looking for a deep thought or humbling observation just hang around kids. As you can see, they don’t just point out the not-so-obvious, but also the obvious… whether you want to hear it or not!

Letters to the Editor
Neo-athiests promote intolerance
The Centre for Inquiry–this misnomer refers to a group of skeptics and athiests. After some discussion with them, one will find that the only thing they do not question is materialistic evolution. Mr. Ligertwood’s letter does
not reflect what Calvin Smith says in his talks and especially not the spirit in which he speaks. All the assertions that he makes are the standard talking points of the neo-athiests. Richard Dawkins, P. Z. Meyers, etc are using the same
rhetoric and it in no way reflects biblical, historical, or present reality. This rhetoric said about any other group would be classed as hate speech and said in any other setting would be called bullying. It is being used to develop hatred and
Ignorance of Bible shows
It is unfortunate that Bill Ligertwood came away from the creationist meeting with such a negative impression. Not having attended that meeting, I do not know how carefully the subject was presented. Hopefully, Mr. Ligertwood didn’t go to the meeting with the attitude of being offended no matter what was said. Forensic science is most challenging as you take an event that has occurred and work with the evidence to come up with the most logical explanation of that event. Part of that can be eliminating what is not logical and seeing what is left. Much of creation science focuses on the accuracy of what can be proven in the Bible and accepting the rest on faith. Faith in systems and theories is not limited to the religious. Mr. Ligertwood’s reference to Leviticus 19:19 was interesting. If the readers looked into this chapter, they would find commands on care of the
needy, respect for the disabled, impartial justice for all, and many other laws. If Mr. Ligertwood finds the Old Testament offensive, he should compare it to the other societies of the time and see how forward-thinking it was. His statement, “Name a disgusting practice and the Bible condones it,” shows ignorance of the Bible. Something Mr. Ligertwood apparently doesn’t understand is that the Old Testament law was fulfilled when Jesus was executed. While many of the principles were carried over, the Mosaic Law was for a certain people during a certain, rather brutal period of history. If material was poorly presented, Mr. Ligertwood has a reason to be disappointed, but he should be careful about making broad generalizations about the Bible. Doug Kendig, Tappen Elder, S.A. Church of Christ
intolerance toward a certain segment of society. Mr. Ligertwood obviously doesn’t even believe his own faith position. He hates a God that his faith says doesn’t exist. You don’t hate someone that doesn’t exist. There are no groups meeting to declare their hatred for the man in the moon. He appeals to a moral standard that his faith philosphy doesn’t rationally support. In fact, in a recent ‘evangelism’ workshop called ‘Moving Naturalism Forward,’ leading philosophers and scientists grew a little testy when challenged on how much do they really want people to believe that there is no basis for responsibility and objective morality. In other words, if the general
Letters on this page refer to the “Disappointed with creationist meeting” letter that appeared in last week’s issue of Lakeshore News population believes that we are just molecules in motion, they will begin to act like it. As one materialistic evolution devotee believed, he was ‘simply scattering’ the molecules of his victims. The victims were some of his fellow students at Columbine High School. Perhaps these ‘inquirers’ would be better employed considering why they are angry at God and turn their attention to forgiving that hurt or forsaking that errant way. Perhaps they would be able to lay down that anger and find the reconciliation, healing and peace that God so freely gives through his son, Jesus Christ. Lance Stoney, Salmon Arm

he had made man”... Genesis 6:5-8 “For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23 God created a perfect world and man destroyed it. The pre-flood people had about one hundred years, while the ark was being built, to decide if they wanted to go with Noah. They refused the refuge that was offered to them. Mr. Ligertwood’s comment about Noah repopulating the earth is also misinformed. Noah’s grandchildren most likely did not marry anyone closer than a first cousin. There were no laws at that time about incest because they did not have the genetic problems we have today. Pre flood people lived longer and were stronger and healthier than we are today. The Second Law of Thermodynamics agrees with this. If we are a certain way now, we can conclude that we used to be better. Nobody looks at a wrecked car and says to the manufacturer, “Why did you build a car like this?” We can’t blame anyone but ourselves for the decay we are in. Mr. Ligertwood said shame on the faithful church people for bringing their children to listen. What about all the kids in public school who are taught in science class how they slowly evolved from some primordial soup over however many billions of years? That takes a lot of faith and I admire that, but frankly, I don’t have it. I don’t know if this will change anyone’s mind because usually the “people will only see it when they believe it.” “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.” Psalms 14:1a Matthew R.

‘Evolutionism’ requires faith
Mr. Bill Ligertwood wrote a letter to the editor describing his distaste for the Bible. I would like to expose some of the misrepresentations that he made. Mr. Ligertwood stated that Creation is a myth. I agree it is not totally provable by today’s scientific standards. Neither is its counterpart, Evolutionisim, which is a faith-based religion as well. Whether you look into a telescope or a microscope, everything seems to point to a creator. There is nothing scientific or logical about believing that humanity came into being by itself. Everyone knows that a watch has a watchmaker, a painting has a painter and Creation needs a Creator, no matter how many theories the human brain can contrive. Mr. Ligertwood implied that Creation was not true because the Bible was the only evidence for it. Even if it was, why isn’t it enough to take the word of the Creator of the universe? Mr. Ligertwood insinuated that, “If you don’t take everything literally (in the Bible) you’re not a real Christian”. The Bible is full of figures of speech and allegories that we don’t take literally. There are, of course, many things that are literal in the Bible. The Old Testament Levitical laws were for the Jews only. They are God’s people chosen for a special purpose. Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament when He died for humankind, so the ceremonial laws don’t apply to us. Mr. Ligertwood charges God with murder for the millions of deaths in the flood of Noah. Sin is the only reason people die. “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth....And it repented the Lord that

By Stephanie Morin-Davis I’ll wager there is a book in each of our lives that has touched us deeply or has taken us on an unforgettable adventure, and the lyrics of a song which have given us strength or moved us. Come listen to successful authors read their work over a coffee and desserts in the inspiring Art Gallery setting on Friday, May 24th. Immerse yourself in a presentation or workshop which allows you to explore the creative process behind these stories in the comfort of the Prestige Harbourfront Resort on Saturday May 25th. Join us for breakfast at the OK college campus on Sunday May 26th, and then finish the morning with our presenter’s offerings. Whether is it is a children’s book tugging at your heart, song lyrics jamming in your head, or a family memoir yet to be written, the Word On The Lake Writers’ Festival is the ideal platform to explore your creative path. Presenter Jacqueline Guest’s tireless pursuit of opening the doors to a child’s future through literacy is well known. This young adult, Metis author is Writer-In-Residence for the Marigold Library System and a member of the Calgary Arts Partners in Education; and has recently won a National Aboriginal Achievement Award and the prestigious Esquao
Award for outstanding achievement by an Aboriginal woman. Her award-winning books are rich with characters from various ethnic backgrounds including First Nations, Inuit, and Metis. These characters are confronted with social difficulties many young children face such as bullying, physical challenges, and blended families. Her historical novels present Canadian history in an exciting format, while her young adult mysteries broach the teenage issues in sensitive yet creatively compelling ways. Guest’s presentation of her award-winning book Ghost Messages is an excellent example of how she combines mystery and adventure with historical fact. If you have any interest at all in writing for your children or grandchildren, this presentation is for you. The captivating, engaging, and hugely entertaining Blu and Kelly Hopkins will engross their workshop participants. Singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Blu Hopkins has been traveling and preforming his songs for over
thirty years. His accolades include winning at the 2007 Okanagan Music Awards and 2008 BC Interior Music Awards. He hosts a weekly radio broadcast entitled “The BluJay Café” on CKVS 93.7 FM here in Salmon Arm. Likewise, Kelly Hopkins is also an accomplished lead and harmony singer, songwriter, and gifted mandolin and acoustic bass player. In their Song Lyric Writing workshop, participants will learn the essential techniques for successfully constructing vivid lyrics. No musical skills are required other than a desire to write songs for a musician’s collaboration. The community is invited to our
fundraiser extravaganza at the United Church, Saturday night. Lucas Myers will perform and the Hopkins will play. For more information, please visit www. saow.ca.

Water, and safety issues
The black line in the distance that day on Kinbasket Lake, way beyond Revelstoke and toward Valemount, was an ominous warning. Prevailing strong winds were going to push big waves toward Red Rock Harbour. My boss Ivan was on his way across, with parts for the Caterpillar D7. Halfway across, and toward our logging camp, four miles up toward Wood River, the storm hit. In a bid to save his own skin, he jettisoned the parts over the side and made it to shore, to wait out an event that just two weeks before, had claimed the life of two brothers from Revelstoke on a camping canoe trip. There have been other drownings on that sometimes calm, then turbulent massive body of water. As well, 14-foot aluminium motorboats that were tied to the shore at Red Rock flipped end over end. Fibreglass hulls were ground to pieces on sharp rocks, from torn-away moorings. The lake demands respect, and most anglers (of lake trout and kokanee) have great respect for that foreboding black line, when it appears off in the distance. Water is an essential part of our lives. In BC, we are blessed with an abundance of the stuff, yet it is becoming an increasingly important commodity for places like California. Down the road, through NAFTA, there’s no doubt in my mind that our soft politicians will cave in to US demands, for a pipeline, and tanker bulk carriers (like Ocean Falls). But, as it is, we are selling truck tanker-fulls, that are going every day across the line to Washington state. In the meantime, the wonderful thing about our lakes, rivers, and streams is that they provide a vast amount of recreational and angling opportunity, for all residents and tourists alike, in summer and winter. But unfortunately, not without incidental drownings, that have of late made most of us more aware of respecting and taking precautions with that most precious liquid. The bodies of two Langley teens have just been recovered from Nicola Lake, and [at press time] a Calgary man who was last heard from fishing on Shuswap Lake has not been found, although his boat had washed up on the rocks. Last Sunday, two Sicamous anglers, fishing from shore off Murdock Point, swam out to save a couple whose boat had swamped. They had been clinging to their overturned boat for over an hour in the cold water. David, one of the rescuers, and a resident of Old Town Bay, used his quad to get the hypothermic couple to the waiting ambulance. Each incident is different; a life jacket will often save a life, except in a situation in Washington state last week. A boat flipped on a fast-flowing river, and after grabbing one person by the shoulder straps of his lifejacket, rescuers saw him slip out and get washed downstream, where he drowned. Obviously, the PFD was not fitted properly. I recall an incident at Snowshoe Lake, a great little fishin’ hole over the Monashee, and toward Needles, a ways back, when I was fishin from an aluminum canoe. Sitting on the cross bar, in the middle of the lake, I was playing a fat trout to the canoe when a sassy osprey decided he wanted that trout. Hovering above, he made a dive for the fish.
shuswapoutdoors by Hank Shelley The reel screamed blue murder as the line peeled off. As he sat in a big broken-topped fir tree, munchin’ down on that still-flopping trout minutes later, I’d swear he grinned as I hit that ice-cold water. Even with a lifejacket on, I could not reach up and pull myself into my buddy’s aluminium boat, probably due to my waterlogged pants, boots and heavy jacket. We become complacent when in a larger boat, by just having jackets nearby. However, we should be wearing them at all times, especially when in a small boat. The newer ones are compact and slim, fitting around the neck. Red Cross stats show about 84% of male angler drownings result when the individual stands up with his fly open to relieve himself, and falls overboard. And with the shock of going into cold water, a person automatically takes a gasping breath, probably taking water into the lungs. Being swept away, like the grizzly bear hunter trying to cross the Goldstream River, above Revelstoke a few seasons back, can have a traumatic effect on both the guide and the victim’s family as well. Please take care, and use caution out on our waters!
Here and there in the Shuswap
It’s really hard to believe, the absolute pig-headedness, and belligerent attitude of a now-retired area resident angler, who has put alien invasive yellow perch into pretty little Larch Lake. It has cost hundreds of thousands of taxpayers dollars, just to treat nine major trout-only lakes. Obviously, those responsible can’t catch a trout for love nor money! Hundreds of hours of volunteer time have been put in by fish and game club members, along with major funding from the Habitat Conservation Trust Fund. Planning and treatment application by very frustrated MOE staff from Kamloops, possibly all for nought? If anglers know something, or want information on the application for treatment of Larch Lake, they can call 250-371-6237. Ever dreamed of flying off to Whitehorse on a holiday? Air North, the Yukon’s airline, has just announced a flight schedule from Kelowna to Whitehorse, beginning June 6th, Thursday and Sunday. An introductory special fare will be available, of $109 plus fees/taxes (one way). It’s a great opportunity to see the sights and sounds of a great city and surrounding area! Fishing report: most lakes are doing well on the usual gear/tackle. Shuswap Lake is producing on orange bucktail, small watermelon apex/silver apex. Gardom has slowed down, as has White lake. Pillar/Miller/Joyce/Pinaus/LadyKing are good bets right now. Trolled wet lines and flies are working well, as is trolled willowleaf/worm/Ford fender. Tight lines, good fishin’!

We need to be able to make a living and pay our bills
My wife Cathy and I have lived here since both our families moved to Salmon Arm in the early 60’s. We both attended Salmon Arm West Elementary School. I considered my dad to be a businessman, although he was an immigrant farmer, and I knew at the age of 5 that I also wanted to be a businessman. Cathy’s dad Les was also a businessman who, along with Paul Pukas, initi-

ated several businesses and developments around town. All three dads had passion and dreams and were willing to risk and sacrifice to accomplish them. They didn’t wait for someone else to take the initiative and sometimes were a little ahead of the times and sometimes that cost them a setback or even a failure. They were proud but not arrogant. They cared about their employees and used the word “we” more often than “I.” I have always believed that every great town needs a few dreamers that are willing to take the lead, as it were; and I view the business of running our provincial government very much like that of our family business. There are certain principles that, just like gravity, will result in certain outcomes. As the City of Salmon Arm, our goals as a 17,000-person family business are more similar than one might think. However, like any family, we do need to make a living and be able to pay our bills! I say we urgently need to get together to find a way to achieve our collective goals. In the past few years we have seen the demise or reorganization of several local income generators – Co-op Sawmill, Newnes, Doepker, to name a few. We can stand here and arrogantly proclaim that the government and business should do this and that, and all the while

assume that our current profits, pensions, salaries or social assistance payments will go on forever, but from my point of view, we as a society and as a community are quickly running out of wealth-generating enterprise. While we fiddle here in our belief that big business is bad, opposition to any idea is constructive, and that government will do it all for us, I can tell you categorically that there are many other so-called poor countries and peoples that are absolutely willing to out-work, outstudy and out-produce us. Like gravity, there will be a consequence. I believe that Greg Kyllo understands the urgency of the economic side of our government, and that whether elected as a member of government or opposition, he will not be able to stop himself from strongly advocating for the citizens of our riding. He understands how to deal with businessmen and I am certain that he will do everything he can to convince, for example, entrepreneurs from the north to locate some of the facilities that require skilled (highly-paid) employees in our area. I’ve known this man for 20 years and he has a strong record of creating jobs where none existed before! We are blessed that this talented businessman would be willing to work for us all for a period of time. Barry Siebenga, Salmon Arm

Jackson site proposal
The news that the school board is moving to sell the Jackson site warrants the reprisal of a letter I wrote to this paper in November 2007. “We seem to have reached an impasse on the Jackson lands situation. It is time for a new, innovative idea. Here it is. The Canada Goose is becoming somewhat maligned for its messy ways in parks. Salmon Arm can be the city to reverse that trend and capitalize on it. The Jackson site has a lot of grass. Let us name it Goose Poop Park, and make it a grazing area for them! We will then harvest the poop, dry and bag it, and sell it as genuine organic fertilizer. At first sales will be slow so we will have to stockpile it. It may become a small mountain. Justin Trudeau will soon be the new leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. We can then invite him to Salmon Arm to christen the site as Mt. Trudeau. (Remember how Mt. Logan almost disappeared?) At the same time, we can make the middle finger salute the official salute of Salmon Arm. The CASSA folks could be given the contract to bag and market the product as they are already a bit into marketing that. Free samples will be given to all tourists that stop in Salmon Arm. Once the idea catches on there will be a big rush of folks who want to move here to show development that they can use only genuine Salmon Arm fertilizer! Eventually this will be such a moneymaker that property taxes will disappear in Salmon Arm. Residents will receive a royalty somewhat like Alaskans get from their oil. If this City Council could ever reach a decision they could have this up and running before their term of office is up. What a way to get re-elected en masse and play a real role in “going green”!” Now for a 2013 update. Who knew it would take the Liberals six years and three losers before crowning JT? Had City Council acted in 2007 we would have had a nice mountain of ‘Goospoo’ fertilizer right now. Some worthy charity in Salmon Arm could invite JT to come. I’m certain for a mere $20,000 or so he would be delighted to show up. Perhaps our local Liberals could provide the invite. Unfortunately we will have to ask the local excavators and truckers to build up a temporary earth pile in lieu of the real stuff. But, let’s get this thing going now! Here’s a ‘middle finger’ salute to all those who launch this ecological venture! Al Schalm, Salmon Arm
Venetian blinds 101
A14 Friday, May 10, 2013 Lakeshore News
www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
These are not your grandmother’s blinds. Not by a long shot. Those were so heavy a small child could (and sometimes did) swing on the cords. When the blinds were down and the closed, you could see through the disproportionately large guide holes. Every bit of dust in the house stuck to the slats, the cords frayed and heaven help you if one broke, which happened. So these blinds have a really bad reputation, and generally it is well-deserved. But wait!! Don’t turn the page. Read on. Metal venetian blinds now tend to have a built-in static barrier. Dust does not stick like it used to. Cleaning them involves either a swipe with the vacuum cleaner wide brush head or a dusting with a wool duster. A note here about dusters: most dusters move the dust off the surface, into the air where it whirls around and lands on the surface somewhere else. Dust sticks to wool dusters. Clean the wool duster by either twirling the duster handle between your hands, or, if the head is removable, by throwing it into the washing machine. (Jysk sells attached-head wool dusters, Crate and Barrel sells removable-head dusters online.) And you can also spray the closed venetians with a static-repellant spray. These two things will help you stop hating the cleaning of venetians. Aluminum venetians are so much

lighter than in previous years. They are easier to raise and lower, pulley systems are not required and the cords rarely break. The slats are thinner and therefore stack up into a smaller space. For example, a 48-inch long blind of two-inch slats stacks up into just under five inches. A new way of threading the slats onto the guide cords eliminates the large guide holes, and, when the blinds are in the closed and down position, there are no visible guide holes. Better privacy and better light control. A beautiful white venetian with a supplied wood-look valance rivals shutters for a clean, country or beach decor; and at a substantially smaller price tag. Choose your venetian colour to match your trim colour and you’ll never have to worry about the colour scheme in the room changing. In terms of price, venetians are still economical. If you want privacy at an affordable price, these are the blinds for you. Next column: The Wonderful World of Woods. Venetians and matching wood verticals–who would have thought?

A perfect princess day
Friday, May 10, 2013 Lakeshore News A15
www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
It’s a bright sunny Saturday and the house is decorated with pink ribbon and festive balloons. It’s Rowan Aura’s 5th birthday and there’s nothing little girls like better than a princess party. Pretty soon, other little princesses are making their way into the house: Rielle, twins Kira and Haille, River, Cali, Ava and Kaitlynn. The first order of business is sunscreen; they line up and patiently wait their turn. Next up is craft time – but not just any ordinary craft; they get to put buttons and jewels on their crowns. [You can get a template off the internet and then painstakingly put the pattern over scrapbook paper. It’s a lot of prep time, but you can’t be a princess without a crown]. This craft proves pretty popular but one of the little girls is too shy to be at the table with the others so she gives her jewel selection directions from a few feet away. While the glue is drying, the little princesses go outside to play. There are so many things to do: a painting craft station complete with smocks and big t-shirts to make sure their princess dresses don’t get dirty, seemingly endless bubbles with the fanciest wands (definitely princess approved), a trampoline surrounded by a safety net, a playhouse and a play set with a slide, swing and swinging bar. The dainty little princesses make good time trying every single fun thing almost at once. From the trampoline to the playhouse to the swings and over to the bubbles – they are doing the rounds in record time. A few of the princesses have no trouble in the play kitchen as they serve up pretend food. They offer burgers, cake and pepperoni. As though they’re trained in the service industry, they repeat the order, without mistakes, and have it ready in almost the same time it takes to repeat it. One of them calls out: “Coming right up!” as she proudly serves pebbles in a plastic cupcake dish. “Who wants some food?” she calls out again.
friends&neighbours by Leah Blain Another one slides onto the little princess height bench: “I would like cake.” “Okay, do you want it in a bowl?” “Yeah – a big bowl!” After a little while they all migrate to the trampoline. Someone suggests they play pirates and princesses where one has to go around to get the others. The game full of shrieks, giggles and laughter lasts about three minutes before the princesses are all holding hands and bouncing together. Now it’s time for princess drinks. As one takes a sip, she says with happy incredulity: “It tastes like pop!” (Way more exciting than water). Now things are really revving up; it’s time to play ‘pin the kiss on the frog.’ Before the game gets officially underway, they giggle as they take turns kissing the frog (Spoiler alert: no prince). Now it is time for serious bubble blowing which always makes princesses very hungry. They head back to the kitchen where there are veggies, fruit and very yummy fruit dip. They exercise their princess rights by not eating their vegetables, except one who enjoys the combination of cucumbers and fruit dip. Now for the highlight: a triple layer (lemon, orange and strawberry) princess cake with pink icing and pretty icing flowers. They sing happy birthday and it takes Rowan five blows to blow out all five candles. And of course no princess party is complete without a treasure hunt for Cinderella’s other shoe. Princesses aren’t slackers and could put even pirates to shame when it comes to serious treasure hunts. Even before the first clue is read, they’re running full speed to clue number two. As they come to the final clue, they find the shoe sitting on top of goody bags with all kinds of princess treasures: princess stampers, a bracelet, glow stick necklace, eraser, a princess balloon, a puzzle and a lollipop cookie. One of the girls is enjoying the rocking chair and says,“I wish I was a grandma to all you guys.” While some of the girls have to go home, the rest play with presents that are now opened – lots of princess toys including girl lego and a homemade tutu. Maybe next year’s theme will be ballerinas.

On Tuesday night around 8 o’clock, the Ranchero-Deep Creek Fire Department attended a roof fire at 7463 Black Road. The roof was ignited by the chimney, as it was an older house. The fire crew was able to save the house, likely putting into practice some of the skills training they had received at the local firefighting seminar only a couple days earlier.

The Salmon Arm and Shuswap Agricultural Association (a.k.a. Salmon Arm Fair) is very pleased to announce the appointment of Dan Brock to the position of General Manager. Dan has been a long-time volunteer of the Association, spending many hours in the maintenance of the grounds and buildings. In his new position, he will be responsible not only for the maintenance, but also for the leases and rentals. He will also manage the SASCU Indoor Sports Complex that is now available for daily, weekly or monthly rentals over the summer months. The members of the association chose a new board of directors at their annual general meeting recently, with Phil Wright returning as President; Star MacGregor as Vice President and Chair of the Fair Committee; Colleen Ingram as Treasurer; Tracy Nash as Secretary; and the following directors were elected: Cody Bostock, Nathan McCurdy, Maureen Hucul, Kathy Crosbie, Ellen Hammer, Joan O’Brien and Bill Lynch. Congratulations to Phil Wright and Isabel Reinertson, dedicated association volunteers for many years who were recognized with the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee award. There will be many activities on the fairgrounds this season. The public is always welcome to attend many of the free events such as 4-H shows and the equestrian events. The grounds are open daily to the public and offer an opportunity for exercise or daily dog walks when animals are not present. There are always projects that require general maintenance and upkeep; such as mowing of the grass on the grounds, building projects, clean up, painting and washing down buildings. There are many opportunities for volunteers regardless of their capabilities to get involved. This season the association was able to purchase a new tractor to assist in these projects. Kelly Weightman is the 2013 fair secretary. This year the entries will be accepted in the office during the month of August with the closing date of Saturday, August 24th. The Fair website prize book is now online for your convenience. The prize booklets will be available towards the end of May in downtown locations. If you require any information with regard to rentals of the grounds or buildings please give Dan Brock a call at 250-832-0442. For fair information, Kelly Weightman can also be contacted at the same number. Or, you can visit salmonarmfair. com.

* Check expiration dates. Gift certificates and cards for particular stores or services are popular come Mother’s Day. But it is essential to check expiration dates on the certificates, as there is a good chance Mom will put off pampering herself and you would not want the gift to expire before she has a chance to use it. In compliance with the law, chain restaurant gift cards don’t expire for at least five years from purchase. Those might be your safest bet. * Verify a business. Although Mom may love a cute boutique that just opened, verify the business before buying a gift card from it. An unpredictable economy has made it even harder for new businesses to succeed, and you don’t Mom to be stuck with a worthless gift card should the new business not thrive.

However, calorie-conscious women may not want to be faced with the temptation of a warehouse-sized box of chocolate treats. If Mom truly loves chocolate, treat her to a gourmet piece or two, but don’t make that your main gift. * Avoid “final sale” items. It can be tempting to peruse the deep-discount rack at Mom’s favorite store when retailers cut prices on items in anticipation of a new season. However, these sales may come with restrictions
on returns or exchanges. Unless you know Mom will like what you pick out, avoid the “final sale” racks in favor of items that can be returned or exchanged. * Ask for a price match. In an effort to keep a loyal customer base, many stores will price match against competitors’ ads. Therefore, if you feel more comfortable at a certain store, print out the advertised price and bring it to your favorite store. There’s a good chance they will give you the item for the same price. There are different ways to make shopping for Mother’s Day gifts a little easier and guarantee the best experience for Mom as well.

Beginning early can ease the pressure of Mother’s Day shopping. Research gift options at least a month prior so that you can read reviews on products and services to guarantee quality. You also want to make sure the gift will arrive on time if you will be ordering your gift online. Here are other ways to shop in a smart manner. * Do some sleuthing. Play detective and take inventory of what Mom likes to do the most. Pay attention to conversations and see if there is anything she mentions wanting to try or something around the house that may need updating. Practical gifts are less likely to end up unopened in the basement or attic.

The thought put into the gift is more important than the amount of money spent. Try replacing traditional gifts with something more unique and thoughtful. Instead of creams and bath scents, consider writing your mom a poem. You might think you are not the writing type, but even if your poem is not as polished as those found on greeting cards, the thought and effort of writing your own message will mean more to your mother. Search online for examples or patterns you can follow. Instead of flowers, consider a photo album containing memorable photos of family events over the years. Online photo shops have made it easy to create scrapbooks and coffee table books for mom. From the comfort of your home computer you can upload, crop, and move photos to create a gift that will have her talking for years. Consider giving a donation in your mother’s name. Charities like Christian Children’s Fund of Canada (www.ccfcanada.ca) offer an easy to use online gift catalogue that allows you to choose a donation that would matter to your mom. Is she a teacher? What about providing school supplies to children in Africa. A gardener? What about seeds and garden tools to a farmer in Latin America. A stay at home mom? What about a loan to a mom in India to help her start her own small business? The gift you choose can be as unique as your mom is.

nique gift ideas for Mother’s Day
Whether she’s still hard at work raising children or her kids have grown up and now have children of their own, Mom deserves our best efforts come Mother’s Day. And while traditional gifts like flowers and chocolate might make for thoughtful Mother’s Day gifts, those who want to go the extra mile for Mom this year can consider the following unique gift ideas.
* Concert tickets: Many adults recall the days of their youth when Mom would relax while listening to some of her favorite music on a lazy summer afternoon. Why not take a stroll down Memory Lane and take Mom to see one of her favorite acts in concert? Even if you have outgrown Mom’s musical tastes, she will still appreciate the chance to spend an evening out on the town with her kids and some good music. * Theater tickets: If Mom is a fan of live theater then nothing will elicit a bigger smile than tickets to a Broadway show she has had her eyes on. If Broadway is a bit too far for you to travel, do your homework and find a traveling production of a former Broadway show. Such productions often feature many of the same actors who made the play famous on Broadway so you’re still bound to see an unforgettable show Mom will love. * Parts unknown: Moms who love to travel and experience other cultures would certainly appreciate a trip abroad or a domestic getaway to a region of the country they have yet to explore. Before booking any such trips, speak to your Mom and ask if there’s anywhere in particular she’d like to go. Such trips can be expensive, so adults might want to speak to their siblings and finance such an excursion together. * Spa treatment: If Mom is still as active as ever, then a day of pampering at a nearby spa is sure to please. Many luxury spas offer packages, especially around Mother’s Day, that make a full-on spa treatment a

Cookies for sale New bus shelters
Laura Wetheril, 12, and Lauren Ough, 11, sell Girl Guide cookies outside the Save-On-Foods in a fundraising effort. If they are able to get the required $400.00 they will be able to have a sleepover at the Calgary Zoo including spending the night with the animals. Other funds raised go towards summer camps and other Girl Guide activities. Howard Vangool photo.
The Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) is pleased to inform the residents of Enderby, Lumby and Rural Vernon that new bus shelters have been installed at the following locations: Mill Avenue at Highway 97 (Enderby, Route #60); Canyon Road at Highway 97 (Splatsin First Nation, Route #60); Pleasant Valley Road at Vernon Christian School (Electoral Area B, Route #60); Pleasant Valley Road at Stickle Road (Electoral Area B, Route #60); Whitevale Road at Fraser Road (Electoral Area D, Route #61) - East & West Bound. These bus shelters were provided and installed by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure and will be maintained by the RDNO. It is through this generosity that transit programs in the North Okanagan can be sustained. “We are grateful to the Ministry for their vision of improving transit services in BC and for acting on their goal within our region,” stated Nicole Kohnert, P.Eng, Manager of Regional Engineering Services. The RDNO works closely with BC Transit and the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure to improve transit service within the North Okanagan.

There’s a new set of wheels in town, or should we say “wheel.” The campaign to purchase three TrailRiders for the Shuswap notches up this month with the arrival of a demo doing the rounds throughout May. The one wheeled piece of adaptable equipment has a seat for a disabled person to sit on and bars on the front and back for Sherpa’s to propel the Trailrider forward. “It’s a chance for people to see and try it and support it,” says Debra MacDonald, who has spearheaded the campaign to make TrailRiders available to people in the Shuswap. Book a demo for your group, or check it out and make a donation this coming Saturday at the Taste of the Shuswap Bike Month street fair in Salmon Arm between 10 am and 4 pm. (Hudson Ave right in front of the Gallery.) Before Debra’s illness with Multiple Sclerosis, which put her in a wheelchair, she worked in the forest industry for 20 years. “This gave me opportunities working outdoors that most people with a disability will never experience,” she says. The TrailRider changes that. “My goal is to get people with all disabilities to experience the great outdoors.” May is Bike Month in the Shuswap. Self-propelled travel on all kinds of wheels is being promoted, applauded, and even pushed. “The TrailRider fits the big picture of getting people outside, active, and connected with their environment,” says Shuswap Trail Alliance execu-
tive director, Phil McIntyre-Paul. “We’d like to see one in place by the summer to start promoting better accessibility of our greenway trails
to more people.” In order to make this happen, Debra is working with community partners to raise money for the first TrailRider. The 2013 campaign’s goal is to raise $7000 to purchase a TrialRider and all the equipment to run a successful and safe signout program. The Shuswap Trail Alliance is supporting the effort by managing donations, issuing charitable receipts, and working with Debra to house the sign-out and training process. Charitable donations can be made by mailing a cheque to the Shuswap Trail Alliance, PO Box 1531, Salmon Arm, BC V1E 4P6, and clearly mark that it is for the TrailRider Project; or call the Alliance at 250-832-0102. For more information on the TrailRider or to book a demo, call Debra at 250-832-1353. Debra’s TrailRider demo schedule can be found on the events page at www. shuswaptrailalliance.com.

Festival winners celebrated
By Susan Wolff Congratulations to all the winning musicians and vocalists of the 13th annual Shuswap Music Festival and “Thank You” to all the participants. At a festival in which young musicians demonstrate their talent, learn from professional adjudicators and are supported by their community, everyone is a winner. The festival’s ‘Night of Stars’ concert, held Saturday, April 27th at the First United Church celebrated our young musicians and rewarded them with more than $4,000.00 in awards and scholarships. In a poignant moment, Reid Fowler presented the annual Mary Fowler Memorial Scholarship to the most deserving student in classical voice as selected by vocal adjudicator, Heather Pawsey. This year’s recipient was Reid Gomme, the grandson of Reid and the late Mary Fowler. Reid Gomme also won the award for Senior Musical Theatre and has been recommended by Pawsey to compete at the Provincial BC Performing Arts Festival later in May. The festival, sponsored by the three Rotary Clubs of Salmon Arm and the BC Registered Music Teachers’ Association, Shuswap Branch, received more than 500 entries. Professional adjudicators brought to Salmon Arm for the festival, selected the winners in each of the categories of Band, Strings, Junior and Senior Piano, Vocal and Choral.

Winners from that festival are then eligible to advance to the National Music Festival scheduled for August in Waterloo, Ontario. The growing reputation of the Shuswap Music Festival in BC’s interior is due to the generous support of its patrons and the commitment of its many volunteers. As Heather Pawsey, vocal adjudicator, stated, “It takes hundreds of ‘unseen hands’ and their efforts do not go unnoticed.” The Board of Directors for the Shuswap Music Festival is grateful for the support of over 80 volunteers, many of whom are Rotarians; the generosity of the three Rotary Clubs, sponsors and patrons; Marlin Travel; The World of Music; and the festival venues including the First United Church, St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, The Prestige Harbourfront Resort and Convention Centre, and the SAGA Gallery. A special note of thanks goes to Rod Charlebois for his annual services as the festival’s master of ceremony at the Night of Stars concert. Thank you, all.

Rod passed away peacefully at Shuswap Lake General Hospital in Salmon Arm, BC on Friday, April 26, 2013 at 92 years of age. Rod would say in his 93rd year, this coming from his Finnish heritage of which he was very proud. Rod was born at Kamloops, BC on May 9, 1920 and had been a long time resident of the Shuswap. He had been employed as a Superintendent with BC Hydro for 35 years at the coast prior to retiring to Blind Bay with his wife, Aino. He was predeceased by his brother, Tom, his mother Lempi Patrick (nee Maki), wife Aino and grandson, Dylan Raper-Laing. Rod is survived by his children, Robin (Flower) Ruttle and Lisa Ruttle. Two grandchildren, Rory and Natasha (Nicholas) and three great grandchildren. Rod was an active member of the Power Pioneers and the Sorrento Lions Club and very much enjoyed the time spent with both. There will be no formal service as to Rod’s request. If so desired, contributions in memory of Rod may be made to the Lions Club of Sorrento. On line condolences may be sent to Rod’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.

Quality of life survey
Ghana, Africa
In March 2013, Gabrielle Jackson travelled to Ghana, Africa, with 20 other students from School District 83, including A. L. Fortune Secondary in Enderby, Eagle River Secondary in Sicamous, Pleasant Valley Secondary in Armstrong and Salmon Arm Secondary. The students visited the village of Asemkow to help build a school there. They cleared and levelled the foundation of the school, made the bricks, mixed the mortar and completed two rows of the wall of the school. Gabrielle is pictured here with some of the children from Asemkow. She was amazed by the women of Ghana who were able to walk up to 8 km a day with 80lbs of water balanced on their head, and describes describes the whole experience as “amazing.” Gabrielle receives $10 for having her picture printed and is entered into the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2013.

BC 4-H lottery
Calling all those with small acreages, hobby farms, large farming operations, big backyards, backwoods enthusiasts and fans of John Deere anything! B.C. 4-H is excited to announce the return of the second B.C. 4-H Gator Lottery, bigger and better than ever. There will be two lotteries with two grand prizes of a John Deere XUV 350 4x4 Gator, both generously donated by PrairieCoast Equipment. In 2011, tickets were in demand by 4-H clubs all over the province, and thanks to the generosity of PrairieCoast Equipment, all lottery proceeds were directed back into the club and provincial levels of 4-H. A whopping $36,915 was raised in support of 4-H in BC. Tickets are available from participating 4-H clubs throughout the province, with the grand prize to be drawn November 1st at PrairieCoast Equipment in Kelowna. Contact your local club for tickets, contact the BC 4-H office toll-free at 1-866-776-0373, or visit www.bc4h.bc.ca for more information.
In order to understand where we are going, we must first understand where we are. In that spirit, the Regional District of North Okanagan is pleased to announce the launch of the 2013 Regional Quality of Life Survey on May 10, 2013 to track changes in public perception about the quality of life within the communities of the North Okanagan. The survey is confidential and will take between 15 and 20 minutes to complete. Residents who complete the survey will be entered into a draw to win an iPod Nano or a $200 gift card, as well as a chance to win 1 of 10 $25 gift cards for the store of their choice. To be eligible, residents must submit surveys before 4:30 pm on June 7, 2013. Winners will be announced on June 30, 2013. Public perception is a valuable tool for local and regional governments to measure progress on the implementation of regional plans, projects and programs. Improving the quality of life for residents is an underlying principle of the Regional Growth Strategy and Official Community Plans. The Survey will be one of many pieces of information collected by the Regional District to evaluate the effectiveness of the Regional Growth Strategy and to identify regional priorities. The Regional District is initiating the survey to establish a baseline of citizen’s perception of quality of life in the North Okanagan and some of the concerns and priorities that are currently top of mind. It asks a diverse range of questions about quality of life, community character and regional growth policy areas such as transportation, the environment, water resources, community infrastructure and agriculture. The Regional District plans to repeat this survey in future years to gauge progress on improving the quality of life in the region and Regional Growth Strategy implementation. The survey can be completed online at www. rdno.ca/qols or paper copies will be available at the Regional District office, municipal offices and Okanagan Regional library branches. Several workshops, with door prizes, will be held that will invite residents to take part in an interactive quality of life survey with real-time polling, so check the RDNO website (www.rdno.ca) often for events.

The Bright Light Social Hour - the men, the music & the moustache…
American rockers, The Bright Light Social Hour first gained attention in Austin for their incendiary live performances & innovative vision of rock and roll. Melding southern rock, hard dance, psychedelic blues and deep soul, their debut full-length album has led to heightening critical acclaim, national touring and a rare sweep of six awards at the SXSW 2011 Austin Music Awards, including Band of the Year, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year. Born out of a university art-rock collective, Jack O’Brien (bass), Curtis Roush (guitar),
A.J. Vincent (keys), Joseph Mirasole (drums) funded their self-titled debut album entirely independently. To raise funds the band offered TBLSH fans a chance to buy personalized love songs and videos, private meals cooked and served by the band, spanish lessons, homemade cookies, full house/apartment cleaning, and car washes by the band (in jean cut offs, no less). For the right price you could even own band member Jack O’Brien’s moustache. Sounds amazing right? Well the album is too… Serving up a sizzling combination of rock
‘n roll musicianship, the R&B infused album was an incredible success - boasting solid song-writing, inspirational harmonies and just the right amount of sexy, gritty, southern psychedelica. Producer Danny Reisch utilized the best elements of vintage and modern recording to achieve a sound both forward-looking and evocative of 1970s hi-fi. Following the album’s release, The Bright Light Social Hour has embarked on a heavy touring rotation, playing over two hundred shows throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico. Latest news on the touring scene
features the band at this year’s Tortuga Music Festival & Lollapalooza. Chronicling their adventures, the band has released a series of self-produced tour documentaries depicting life on the road. Blasting their way to Roots & Blues this year, The Bright Light Social Hour is currently writing new material for a second fulllength album with plans to release soon. For more information on the fantastic 2013 Roots and Blues line-up visit www.rootsandblues.ca.
