Unplug & Play Family Literacy Week

The Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society (LASS) and many community organizations are inviting students and families to participate in Unplug & Play Family Literacy Week from January 21st to 27th.

In order to encourage students and families to reduce their amount of screen-time for one week (TV, video games, texting, computers, etc.) Unplug & Play Passports have been printed for every elementary and middle school student in the district. On each passport, there is a

daily checklist to record screen-free activities and a schedule of events for families throughout the North Okanagan-Shuswap. All events are free and some of the planned activities include: buddy reading with the SilverBacks, family game nights, Early Years Fair, family skating, special library storytimes, library scavenger hunt, sliding party, family art afternoon, Jam the GM Children’s Book Drive (pictured at right), PLAY AGAIN film at Carlin School, free family swim, curling, and much more!

Jam the GM with children’s books

Kicking off the ‘Jam the GM’ book drive last Friday were, from left: Les Ellenor, friend of LASS; Salmon Arm SilverBacks Captain Brandon Mistal; fellow ‘Backs Jeff and Brendan Kennedy; in the truck, Louise Wallace of Mediability; with Hayden & Siena Dahms and Teagan & Katie Findlay; Warren Suitor of Salmon Arm GM; Josh Gordon, SilverBacks’ Director of Marketing; June Stewart of Shuswap Children’s Association and board member of LASS; Nancy Cooper, Mayor of Salmon Arm; Renee Dahms, LASS President; and Michelle Weisinger of Lakeshore News. Missing from photo is Jennifer Findlay, Literacy Outreach Coordinator. Photo contributed.

The “Jam the GM” Children’s Book Drive was launched on Friday, January 4th, 2013 in the Salmon Arm GM showroom. Throughout the month of January, a GMC Sierra truck will be in the showroom and the challenge is for community members, businesses, organizations, and schools to donate gently used children’s books and “jam” them in the back of the GM. During Family Literacy

Week (January 21–27) a GM truck will also be parked in the Piccadilly Mall by the library. Community members will be encouraged to make their children’s book donations at either the dealership or Piccadilly Mall. At the end of the month, all of the books will be collected, sorted and then later distributed to local children’s organizations to support family literacy in our

community. The Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society (LASS) has partnered with Salmon Arm GM, the Salmon Arm SilverBacks, and the Mall at Piccadilly, and the Sicamous Eagles to help promote the “Jam the GM” Children’s Book Drive. Watch for more details in next week’s paper on the numerous free family events in the community during Unplug and Play Family Literacy Week.

A life of love and faith

Lakeshore Lakeshore News News Friday, Friday, January January 11, 11, 2013 2013

Few could boast having such a strange beginning to their life as Dorothy Gooden. Her story began in May, 1933. “I was born to a lady and a man who weren’t married and the lady wouldn’t accept me because there was epilepsy in her family and she was afraid I’d have epilepsy. My father kept me until I was two and then took me to Saskatchewan to a family named Smith. They had three boys and three daughters and they said they’d look after me.” She recalls that day in her memoirs that have just been published. While she was eating strawberries with the daughters, the man who had dropped her off drove away and left her there. “I was left with a family, the only family I ever knew. I fell into this family like a rock. The girls became my sisters, the boys became my brothers, and the caring couple became my mum and dad,” she says in My Life, My Faith, My Love. It was during the Depression years; and there wasn’t always a lot of food, but, despite the hardships, her life was filled with love and laughter. Her parents, William and Ethel Smith, became so attached they took an unusual step. “She didn’t want my father to take me back again, so she took me to the Registry Office in Leask and registered me as her daughter, thus, my father had no right to me.” Her father had no legal rights to his daughter but he didn’t lose sight of her. “He kept track of me all the years of his life.” One day she and her mother were on the train and her biological father was also on the train. He treated her to a banana split, but

said nothing about being her father. When Dorothy was 12, she had a neardeath experience. She had her tonsils taken out but something had gone wrong. When she got home, she was weak and couldn’t stop vomiting blood. She remembers the road being rough as she was being driven to the hospital. “I don’t know what happened to me. I was laying on top of the car looking at my mother and I thought, ‘My mother doesn’t know I’m not in my body’ and I started to go a long way up. I came to a set of stairs hanging from a building and I went up the stairs. There was a man in a long robe and he looked at me. He said, ‘I don’t think you’re supposed to be here.’ And I said, ‘Where am I supposed to be?’ And he said, ‘I have to talk to God.’” He was only gone for a moment, Dorothy explains. When he came back he said, “God has given you instructions. He wants you to help everyone that you meet along the path and give them assistance or anything they need. That’s how God wants you to live.” Dorothy took this seriously and lived her life to these instructions. As she grew up, the memories of her early years were mostly forgotten. She didn’t think about the man who dropped her off that day when she was two years old. Dorothy can’t recall how or when she came to the realization that she did have a father. It was not something her parents ever talked about, and Dorothy never held a grudge against the parents for keeping her origin a secret. “They were so good to me. I never got upset with them.” Dorothy moved to British Columbia where she got a job in a drugstore in

friends&neighbours Langley. She boarded with a family by Leah Blain who had a son who was an accountant. When he was given a job in Salmon Arm for the school district, he asked Dorothy to marry him. They moved to Salmon Arm and had three sons – Leslie, Brian, Kevin and adopted a daughter, Elizabeth. When Elizabeth was little, Dorothy took her to a doctor in Montreal, one of the preeminent epilepsy specialists. While they were there, Dorothy’s brother, Jack, told her he was going to take her to visit a man in Ottawa on Boxing Day. “It was a huge house,” Dorothy recalls. The housekeeper greeted them. Shortly an older man came in, saw her, and started to cry. It was the same man who had given her a banana split on the train. “He said, ‘Dorothy, I’m your father, and I have an incurable disease.’” The housekeeper, wanting to spare him further embarrassment because of his tears, ushered him out of the room. The visit was over and Dorothy never even got to find out his name. Jack was the only sibling who had information on her real father. When he had a heart attack and died, he took this information with him to the grave. It wasn’t until years later that Dorothy tried to find out the name of her real father. All her efforts have been to no avail. As she sits in her comfy chair in Hillside, surrounded by pictures of her sisters and brothers, all of whom have passed away, and her grandchildren, she smiles. A copy of her memoirs is expected this week. It was a lot of work but so many have urged her to write her life story. She has had a good life but she laughs as she admits: “I’ve had a very strange life.”

COURTESY OF HARBOURFRONT FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

by Kosha Vaidya

by Dr. Warren Gage

Zheng Gu Shui

I fractured my foot a few years back. I knew about Zheng Gu Shui liniment and I used it to ease my pain. Of course I used it again between then and now for pain and it did speed up my healing process. It seems to have helped in pain and inflammation, as I had to take fewer pain killer medications. More recently, a friend of mine had tendonitis of the shoulder and she was taking painkiller medication and applying ice for some time. I gave her some of my Zheng Gu Shui liniment and she was surprised to see how it helped her and soon she was back to her normal self without any pain in her shoulder. Since this product has helped my family and other friends as well, I felt inclined to write about it. I did some research and I discovered that this product, which comes from China, is made by Yulin Pharmaceutical Factory. It has won an award from the public health ministry of China and it is exported to many countries. Zheng Gu Shui liniment provides some relief from minor strains, bruises, sprains, muscular aches and pains and arthritis. The product leaflet also

mentions about its healing properties on bones. It has ingredients like Angelica root, which is also known as dong quai and is considered very useful in traditional Chinese medicine for relief of soreness, pain and swelling. Other ingredients in Zheng Gu Shui include bushy knotweed (Polyganum cuspidatum rhizome), camphor wood extract, moghania root (Moghania macrophylla), zedoary rhizome and San Qi ginseng root. More information is available in the leaflet that is provided with the bottle. Local health food stores carry this product. This liniment is not to be applied over broken skin. You can use a cotton piece to apply the medication over the affected area three to four times a day. Again more information such as how to and how much to apply is given on the leaflet. It was very helpful to my friends and me and I hope it is to you. Do talk to your health care provider before using it and for additional information.

This is for general information only and not a substitute for medical advice. No action/treatment or inaction/non treatment should be taken without consulting your physician. Readers should consult appropriate health professionals on any matter relating to their health and well-being.

Kids and chiropractic

Not a week passes that I will be adjusting a newborn, infant, or small child in my office and an adult who is watching in amazement will ask me, “Why does a baby need to be adjusted?” I welcome such questions as they always afford me an opportunity to explain the importance of why we check and adjust children of all ages. In the past, chiropractic for kids was a relatively unknown therapy; however, word is now spreading quickly about the benefits of chiropractic care for children and babies. The evidence base supporting this field of alternative health care is also expanding with multiple studies now in print. The consistent messages in these studies is the importance of a proper functioning nervous system through correct spinal function. Improving spine and nervous system function has a positive impact on the brain, immune system, cognitive/emotional development, growth and physiology. Since the very young ones are unable to speak, it is the job of a chiropractor to observe the daily actions, behaviours, and health status of little ones to determine what is causing them to lose proper function. By observing the health and function of babies and children, we then can show parents the connections between spinal and nervous system function and how it affects their child’s health. Research published in medical pediatric journals shows that chiropractic is the most commonly used alternative healthcare provider for a wide range of complaints. One study found that 27% of parents seek help from alternative medical providers for respiratory problems; 24% for ear/nose/throat ailments; 15% for musculoskeletal; and 6% for allergies, skin, and gastrointestinal problems. While many parents seek out chiropractor care to resolve a specific health concern or symptom from which their child may be suffering, an important clarification is that chiropractic is not a specific “treatment” for the above mentioned conditions. Rather, when a child’s system is in a state of “disease,” they will always benefit from gentle and safe adjustments to restore proper biomechanical and neurological function. A proper functioning nervous system will give a child the best opportunity to grow and develop optimally, and as a result the disease process they originally arrived with will usually pass from the picture. To have your child’s spine and nervous system assessed call Harbourfront Family Chiropractic today at (250) 803-0224.

Women’s conference cancelled

The organizers of the 8th Annual It’s All About Women Confererence and Exhibition regret to announce that this year’s event scheduled for Saturday January 26th has been cancelled, due to circumstances beyond their control. The Prestige Harbourfront Resort is undergoing extensive renovations that will not be completed in time for our Conference and Gala. The organizers are saddened by this decision but in

order to preserve the integrity of this unique event for women, including the Shuswap Women of Distinction Awards, they felt it necessary to cancel. They thank all of their supporters who make this event possible and look forward to working with everyone on next year’s It’s All about Women Conference and Exhibition.

Christmas contest winners

Every year we put together a Christmas Contest that tries to stump our local readers and any unsuspecting family members that are visiting over the holidays. The fun of it is I get to make the rules and come up with clues and so the contest can be as hard as I want it to be. In fact it brings me a great deal of Christmas cheer to know you are all labouring in vain over my word scramble while I sit back and sip on egg nog. This years contest was won by M. Ayling and J. Robertson whom I believe are an aunt/niece team. It has been a while since we’ve had a new winner to the contest, but I also know Clara will be back to try and reclaim her title next year. Others who had all the answers right, but weren’t first in line at the door were M. Codd and J. Hagel. Congrats to all of you as I always try to throw a red herring or two into the contest to make it really difficult (see #6 and #21 below). Remember, if you read my articles regularly the red herrings are not so “red” after all. Besides, no matter how hard I try to stump all of you, a couple people each year get every answer correct. So it can’t be all that unfair! I don’t usually publish the answers, but due to popular demand here they are: 1. Under Yet Rink (Turkey Dinner) 2. Ache Thirst Swim (White Christmas) 3. Rich Me String (Mister Grinch) 4. Told Joey Throw (Joy to the World) 5. Hide Leg Sir (Sleigh Ride) 6. Mustard Fax Miss (Dumas First Xmas) – a red herring, but boy did she enjoy her fishy snacks! 7. Helicopter Pad (Hot Apple Cider) 8. A Prawn Prep Pig (Wrapping Paper) 9. Oat Pine Sit (Poinsettia) 10. Enemies Threw (Three Wise Men) 11. See Bronco Geezer (Ebenezer Scrooge) 12. Elbow Theft Men Ho (Town of Bethlehem) 13. No Arm Ten (Ornament) 14. Cutoffs Rest Kings (Stocking Stuffers) 15. A Meany Gnaw Air (Away in a Manger) 16. Software Hymns Not (Frosty the Snowman) 17. Touchy Grannie (Naughty or Nice) 18. Tract Bird Ceded (Credit Card Debt) 19. I Lost Meet (Mistletoe) 20. Avid Find Zeal (Feliz Navidad) 21. Camera Inkey Mill Ox (Mall Arkey in Mexico) – a red herring, but not as red as his sunburn! 22. A Clogged Nines Woks (Good King Wenceslas) 23. Navel Assets (Santas Elves) 24. The Chalk Sled (Deck the Halls) 25. Hitting Lens (Silent Night) I am already starting to come up with my red herrings for next year, so watch out!

Bring a book to work

All businesses and organizations in the North Okanagan-Shuswap are invited to take part in the first annual “Bring a Book to Work Week” which will take place from January 21st to 27th, 2013. As part of Unplug & Play Family Literacy Week, the Literacy Alliance of the Shuswap Society (LASS) is encouraging all businesses and organizations to promote literacy in the workplace. Some ideas for “Bring a Book to Work Week”: throughout the week, encourage staff members to bring a book or magazine to work to read during break times; organize a used book exchange for staff members; start an informal workplace book club; and/or announce a “Drop Everything And Read” (D.E.A.R.) at some point during the work day. If your business plans to participate in “Bring a Book to Work Week,” send LASS a message on the LASS facebook page (www.facebook.com/ LiteracyAllianceoftheShuswap) and your organization will automatically be entered into a draw for a free Family Pack of books from Playfort Publishing and LASS. Happy reading!

GREG KYLLO WILL REPLACE GEORGE ABBOTT

Liberals from Salmon Arm, Enderby, Armstrong, Sorrento and Sicamous came to the SASCU Rec Centre on Jan. 5 and elected Greg Kyllo to replace outgoing MLA George Abbott in the Okanagan-Shuswap riding in the May 14 provincial election. Both men are from Sicamous.

SHAW CENTRE HAD RECORD SEATING

In their rebuilding, Salmon Arm Silverbacks attracted 1,080 spectators to their game last Friday with the visiting Vernon Vipers. Shaw Centre has seating for 1,500. The continually improving team did not disappoint. Remarkable aggressive play resulted in a 4-2 win over the Vipers. See the team in action twice next week: Sun., Jan 13 at 3 p.m. vs Powell River Kings and Fri., Jan. 18 at 7 p.m. vs Trail Smoke Eaters.

SUNNYBRAE BIBLE CAMP BECOMES CAMPUS

A Bible college in Saskatchewan was reaching over-capacity, so this school year it expanded to Sunnybrae with 26 students in a first-year class. In spring Sunnybrae will revert to a Summer Bible Camp, and in the fall the Bible College will have first- and second-year students. In year three it plans on having first-, second- and third-year college students. Sunnybrae Bible Camp and Okanagan Bible College are partnering with Millar College of the Bible, a non-denominational evangelical college with its base at Pambrun, Sask. www.millarcollege.ca, 250-835-8889.

Starting Feb. 15, non-drivers and children will enroll at locations where driver’s licences are issued. A picture and identification will be taken.

HELP ME FIND MY CAR

After Monday morning’s heavy snowfall, I found my car buried under snow in my yard, but after Tuesday afternoon’s snowfall, I cannot see it. I will use a broom handle to poke through snowbanks just like searchers when they look for a buried skier. If you happen to see a black and white SmartCar peeking from under a heavy blanket of snow, let me know.

MANY PEOPLE SNORE, HAVE SLEEP APNEA

I learned over the holidays that I not only snore, but I stop breathing in my sleep. It happened when I fell asleep one afternoon on a couch. Me? Sleep apnea? I didn’t even doze off! A couple in their 50s use Breathe Right nasal strips at night and both sleep much better. I was given a strip to use that night, and I believe I had less daytime drowsiness the next day. Drs. Oz and Roisen wrote in the Province that snoring and sleep apnea might cause damage when the heart cells get insufficient oxygen. They recommend losing weight if necessary, stop using alcohol and tobacco and use CPAP to assist with breathing at night. I recommend using Breathe Right strips that keep the nostrils wide open and give you drug-free nasal congestion relief. Buy them in boxes of 10 or 30 at a drug store or drug department in a store. They cost between 60 and 80 cents a strip, plus tax.

STOP USING PENNIES ON FEBRUARY 4

Begin to round up or down to the nearest nickel at 12:01 on Feb. 4. You will be carrying less weight in coins because financial institutions will be keeping all the pennies. For example, consumers paying cash for an item costing $1.01 or $1.02, tax included, will pay only $1.00. An item costing $1.03 or $1.04 will be rounded up to $1.05. Paying by cheque, debit or credit card will not be affected. The amount charged on the above example will be $1.01, $1.02, $1.03 or $1.04. Purchases in Yukon were rounded to the nearest nickel when I was a nurse in Dawson City in 1960/’61. Pennies were too expensive to transport.

TB VETS CHARITY CHANGES ITS FOCUS

PUBLIC WASHROOMS HAVE SUPER DRYERS

Salmon Arm has public washrooms in the Ross Street parking lot behind CIBC that are a jewel in the town. One is for men and one for women. In the women’s, the light comes on when you lock the door. It is VERY warm, not like the public toilet facilities in Watson, Sask. when I was a youngster. The hand dryer in the women’s is superb. When you put your wet hands into it, a blast of warm air dries them. When you take your hands out, it becomes silent. Good electric eye!

BC’S CARECARD WILL MERGE WITH DRIVER’S LICENCE

Beginning Feb. 15 when you get your driver’s licence renewed for five years, your CareCard will be merged with it. CareCards were prone to fraud, and they used outdated technology. The new card will be called B.C. Services Card.

The tuberculosis sanatorium in Fort Qu’Appelle, Sask. is where I spent six weeks during nurse’s training, looking after TB patients. Soon after, Streptomycin killed TB germs and sanitariums were closed. Student nurses were sent to mental institutions to learn how to look after patients with psychological problems. When I moved to BC in 1962, the TB Vets sent me two key tabs and solicited an annual donation. The tags were made and the mailing assembled by WWII tuberculosis veterans, and I always sent a few dollars. In 2012, donations to the TB Vets charitable foundation were distributed to buy respiratory equipment in four hospitals, Kelowna’s being one, for training BC’s respiratory therapists, and respiratory research. I will send a few dollars again this year, and use the 2013 key tags so if ever my keys are lost and then found, they will be dropped in the mail, sent to Vancouver, I will be identified as the owner, and they will be returned to me by mail, all free of charge. www.tbvets.org sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831 The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of Sally Scales and do not necessarily represent those of Lakeshore News and its staff.

Snow removal an afterthought

I wonder, are the snow removal budget people snowbirds?! It appears that the snow removal in Salmon Arm is always a bit of an afterthought. Our neighbours to the east have it all figured out. Not only do they get a lot more snow, have a smaller tax base to draw from, and their streets are skinny; yet somehow, they manage to keep those

streets clear. We rent a house there and I have no problems driving around town in my car. In Salmon Arm however, 3 days after a big snowfall, I’m still having to take a run out of my driveway to get out of my cul-de-sac. I know, ours get done last, but do we pay less tax? Downtown isn’t much better. I’m not dissing the actual snow removal

Seniors should be able to live together

That was a nice story regarding Rose & Josset Rowe. Wow, can you imagine 70 years together? However, this story does raise serious questions, as it is my understanding that these married seniors cannot live together in a single care facility. In my opinion, they should be able to and without any hassles from either

New ID cards to prevent health fraud

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press VICTORIA – The B.C. government is rolling out its new high-tech medical services cards starting Feb. 15, in an effort to phase out millions of CareCards in the hands of non-residents. The new cards will be combined with the B.C. driver’s licence, with a similar “BC Services Card” available to those who don’t drive. Residents will be required to re-enrol to renew the card every five years, whether they drive or not. Qualified residents can enrol in the Medical Services Plan at any provincial office that issues

driver’s licences. There is no fee for the health services card only. The current $75 fee for a five-year driver’s licence renewal will apply to the new combined cards, discounted to $17 for seniors. There is no requirement to get the new card until your driver’s licence needs to be renewed. The government’s plan is to change over all eligible B.C. residents between the ages of 19 and 74 to the new cards over the next five years. To be eligible for MSP coverage, you must be a citizen or approved permanent resident of Canada, living in B.C. at least six months of the year. Dependents must also be residents to be eligible for coverage. The health ministry announced the new card program in May 2011, after a review showed there were up to 9.1 million B.C. CareCards in circulation. The total population of B.C. is 4.5 million. Health Minister Margaret MacDiarmid said the new card is designed to comply with B.C.’s information and privacy law, which restricts how personal data can be used and shared. That means ICBC and police have no access to medical files, and hospitals and medical offices have no access to driving records.

Do you find yourself reaching for a can of soda or a cup of coffee during the day to banish fatigue? Many do. But you may want to grab a bottle of water instead. Research indicates that lack of water is the No. 1 trigger of daytime fatigue. Therefore, not only can drinking adequate supplies of water keep you refreshed, it can also help to keep you more awake — even during a boring business meeting.

Marcia Beckner is a true champion and an inspiration to the Shuswap community; and the Salmon Arm Rotary Club is pleased to bestow on her the Rotary International Paul Harris Fellow - Community Inspiration Award. Following are some details of Marcia’s life and community involvement. Marcia was an Olympic speed skater at the Grenoble France Olympics in 1968. She and Jim moved to Salmon Arm in 1970, where Jim opened his optometric business. Marcia has been a member of the Shuswap singers for 35 years. She has been a Shuswap theatre member, even before the current theatre was established. An enthusiastic volunteer and performer, she was also involved with the renovations and development of the Shuswap Theatre. Marcia has played in the production ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ performed at J. L. Jackson School. She has also played the role of revered school teacher Miss Halpenny for many years in the re-enactment at North Broadview School located at Haney Heritage village. Marcia and fellow Olympian Mike Hall established the ‘Ice Breakers’ speed skating group for indoor and outdoor skating. Marcia and Joyce Henderson coordinate the Good Food Box program in Salmon Arm ( established 10 years ago by Mara & Tom Moen) a cooperative dedicated to providing healthy provisions and fresh produce once a month to those on tight budgets. The project is helping many families, seniors and First Nations members in the community. Marcia writes a regular ski column each winter for one of the local papers. She still participates in the Reino Keski-Salmi Loppet as well as

continuing her enthusiasm with the Larch Hills Nordic Society. She is a Level 4 official for international ski events, including officiating at the World Cup in Vernon in 1991. An event that has put Salmon Arm on the international map for cross country skiing, the Reino Keski Salmi Loppet has had participating skiers from as far away as Australia for almost 30 years. Marcia’s dedication, enthusiasm and professionalism has provided the impetus to encourage the community and community volunteers to embrace the event. The event that brings back skiers year after year to enjoy the pre and post activities and hospitality as much as they enjoy the skiing on the Larch Hills. The Salmon Arm Rotary Club commenced participation from the second year of the event by dispensing Gatorade; however, members were discouraged after being drowned in the sticky juice (they did not wear rain gear). Instead, Rotarian Vick Massey made the suggestion that the club initiate the spit-roasted beef-ona-bun as a way to show some real Shuswap hospitality to the skiers. This January will be the 29th year of the event, during which Rotary will continue this tradition. The race takes place Saturday, January 19th. The Loppet has also partnered with the Heart & Stroke Foundation to sponsor a fund raising element to this heart-healthy event. Over $400,000 dollars has been raised during that time for the Foundation. Marcia was a key broker in establishing the Reino Keski-Salmi Loppet as part of the National Odyssey Loppet Series; this again helped to establish the Salmon Arm loppet as one of the premier cross country ski events in Canada.

Ice fishing tips in a four-season playground

cline, where it’s warmer. They require 3.6 ppm (a measure of alkalinity); while brookies need 2.8 ppm to survive. Insects will be in weed/marl beds. Fishing about 18 inches above the bottom will work well. Having a portable fish finder is handy, as trout will move up as oxygen thins and water becomes darker due to increased snow fall, on ice. Using the many graph chats now available, one can locate fish drop off zones, and bays, even points along the lake. Basic ice fishing rigs, with an 8-10 lb test mono, will do the job for local trout. Many anglers use small tray pac shrimp as bait. Meal worms do the job, as do worms purchased from the sport shop. Some anglers will use power bait nuggets (orange, red, and lime green) tipped with a kernel of corn. Avoid using just corn as bait – it will plug a trout up, as corn cannot be passed by the fish, and is illegal in some locations. Bead head weighted wet flies, slowly jigged, in black, green, or brown will work too. The most interesting aspect of ice fishing is the guys and gals sharing a camaraderie and passing on helpful hints in hopes of catchin’ a trout to make a person’s day!

Here and there in the Shuswap

With heavy snow conditions along and above our busy highways and side roads, moose will be browsing, bedding, and even crossing roads locally. Be aware and slow down currently, along 97B near the Grandview Bench turn-off area. Four moose are known to be in that area. They also frequent the golf course location, next to the busy highway. No one wants to hit an 800-lb moose on a dark night in the middle of the road!

by Hank Shelley Annually, there are about 700 collisions with these big animals in parts of the Maritimes, and annual claims through ICBC of $35 million in vehicle damage, human injury or death, and “swerve to miss” claims. Areas to watch for animals including deer, will be the White Lake Road, Mabel Lake Road, and along Highway 97B from the Salmon Arm Golf Club to Gardom Lake Road. On the Trans Canada Highway, watch from Canoe to Sicamous right-of-ways and shoulders where animals will browse; as well as the flat stretches from Yard Creek to Malakwa. We all have a tendency to drive too quickly, not paying attention to ditches/suspected animal crossing locations. The Salmon Arm Fish and Game Club crew, who get called to retrieve an injured or dead deer or moose, have processed, wrapped, and passed on to the Salvation Army over 140 packs of burger near Christmas this past year. A large bull moose, hit on the Mabel Lake Road, along with two deer, were confiscated by the CO Service Vernon. Thank you Vernon CO’s for this – it was really appreciated. Be safe on our highways and byways, as well as on our frozen lakes, while snowmobiling or ice angling!

Disodium ethylenediamenetetraacetate ... yum! foodsalive

It took three tries before I could pronounce this word. I googled it, and sure enough this compound exists, and you can find it in your food. You can also find it in your bleach where it acts as a stabilizer. We have waded into a world of unpronounceable food additives fueled by cheap prizes and slick advertising. The be-all and end-all in the food industry is about taste manipulation, shelf life, cheaper product and higher profits. Cheaper usually means you take out the good stuff and substitute with junk. Chemicals that are foreign to our digestive system are added to factory prepared meals that look, smell and taste appetizing. But are these additives the culprit to the unprecedented increase in food sensitivities and allergies or are we no longer tolerating common foods like tree nuts, flax, carrots and wheat? Food label ingredients are in small print and not all additives need to be declared. GMO’s anyone? Does any-

by Afke Zonderland

body besides me think that this is crazy? Food labels ought to be simple, with pronounceable ingredients recognizable at first glance for every person. The most effective method to avoid serving “unpronouncables” to your families is to get busy in your own kitchen. Food that won’t rot is not normal and bread that does not go stale or moldy in a few days should make you suspicious. I met speaker, author and fourth-generation farmer Joe Salatin at a recent event and he signed my copy of his book; Folks This Ain’t Normal,” by writing “Thank you for being normal.” My normal might not be your normal, but I believe that my normal is growing leaps and bounds and will eventually be common practice to all who eat.

POTASSIUM BALANCE SOUP

A simple supper soup for a good night’s sleep. John thought that this soup tasted a little bland,

so I have promised to add some smoked sausage and beans to his half…

• 4 cups organic vegetable broth or spring water • 2 medium zucchini, finely chopped • 3 celery stalks, finely chopped • 1 large bunch fresh parsley, stems and leaves roughly chopped • 3 medium tomatoes, organic canned is fine • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

• 2 tsp celtic sea salt • 2 teaspoons dried thyme, rosemary and oregano • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (opt.) • 1 cup of broccoli florets. Add this 5 minutes before serving.

Put all ingredients except broccoli in a large stock pot. Bring to a gentle boil, then lower the heat, cover, and let simmer gently for 20 min-

utes. You can puree the soup in batches if you prefer a creamy vegetable soup.

Funding for immigrant settlement services

By Bernie Desrosiers, President - Shuswap Settlement Services Society After months of lobbying, with the support of the Salmon Arm, Enderby and Sicamous councils, and the Salmon Arm Economic Development and Chamber of Commerce, Shuswap Settlement Services Society is pleased to announce that it has been awarded funding to provide immigrant settlement services and to lead the WelcomeShuswap initiative. Immigrant settlement services are funded by the federal government and, in British Columbia, administered provincially through an intergovernmental agreement. The services are provided through contract with the Immigrant Integration Branch of the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism, Skills Training and Ministry Responsible for Labour. Historically, smaller communities were denied funding on the grounds that there were insufficient numbers of immigrants to warrant the services. Consequently, immigrants tended to congregate in larger centers where settlement services were available. Over time numerous studies have concluded that the provision of immigrant settlement services locally was a first priority for attracting and retaining immigrants in a community. With an aging workforce, gov-

ernments have come to recognize that immigration is key to industry finding the skilled workers needed to replace retiring employees. The alternative to enabling smaller communities to attract and retain foreign workers would be to have industry relocate to larger cities which would decimate smaller businesses in the service sector. Under this new Welcoming Communities Program for Smaller Centers, Shuswap Settlement Services will both provide immigrant settlement services and work with local governments and community partners to foster a caring and welcoming community. Businesses expend time and money recruiting the skilled workers to help build their enterprise which is wasted if, upon arriving, the recruits feel socially isolated and move to a metropolis that has a variety of ethnic communities. Shuswap Settlement Services will convene a meeting of its community partners, in early February, to determine a Community Action Plan that will make for a more welcoming community. While the primary focus will be on attracting and retaining immigrants, society president, Bernie Desrosiers, points out that in the process of making a community that is more welcoming for immigrants

we also create a community that is more welcoming for everyone. The federal government intends to resume direct responsibility for the funding and administration of immigrant settlement services in British Columbia in April 2014. “We believe we can demonstrate that funding immigrant services in smaller communities is important to the economic and social well being of the community,” Desrosiers says. Shuswap Settlement Services has been in existence locally since 2008 and is responsible for leading the Welcoming and Inclusive Communities and Workplaces Program and the Shuswap Inclusion Project organizing against racism and hate. Both projects served to enhance the capacity of the Shuswap to welcome and integrate growing numbers of New Canadians within the local community and will provide the groundwork for the WelcomeShuswap initiative. Community members and/or organizations interested in serving as community partners or interested in volunteering are invited to visit the Shuswap Immigrant Services office located at 351 Hudson Ave. NE, Salmon Arm (across from the main post office), to email sass@ shaw.ca or to phone 250-8386445.

Fury defeats Vernon

By Tobiah Riley In the weekend prior to the Christmas break, the Shuswap Fury Petite ringette team ended the second half with two strong wins against Vernon teams. The Fury beat Vernon Voltage 4-3 with goals by Brooklyn Agricola, Stephanie Martin, Paige Saitz and Tori Keehn. Assists went to Heidi Leigh Boileau, Tori Keehn, Raya Zwicker, and Brooklyn Agricola. Shuswap Fury then defeated the Vernon Rebels 10-6 with both Brooklyn Agricola and Emily Petryshen scoring hat tricks. Single goals were scored by Stephanie Martin, Tori Keehn, Raya Zwicker and Tamara Brown. Picking up assists were Paige Saitz (3), Raya Zwicker (2), Stephanie Martin, Tamara Brown, Jaiden Clifford, and Emily Petryshen. Jordyn Turner was fantastic in net both games. The Fury have had an incredible first half of the season with great defence, good shooting, solid playmaking, and strong goaltending. Emily Petryshen, Jaiden Clifford, Heidi Leigh Boileau, Teagan Findlay, and Madeline Lucier have shown smart play on defence while jumping into the play and creating offensive opportunities. All 3 forward lines have shown good team work with great passing and strong offence. This has resulted in the Fury scoring ten or more goals in the majority of their games. The team has also been relying on four different goaltenders to share the duties in net: Tamara Brown, Jordyn Turner, Tori Keehn, and Emily Petryshen. All four goalies have been consistantly strong in net with only two losses in the first half of the year. Congratulations to first years Bethany Riley and Emma Gollan for recently scoring their first goals of the season!

You can feel the winter blues creeping up on you. If you’re under a lot of stress at the moment, it wouldn’t take much for you to plan a trip to an exotic location.

LEO

You feel a wide range of emotions for one reason or another. You find a great remedy for insomnia or fatigue.

VIRGO

Lots of cleaning and filing are on the menu for you. Fortunately, you are comfortable delegating. This will allow you to ease back a bit while you coordinate a big job.

LIBRA

This week is a busy one, but you’re determined to get a lot done. Gauge your energy so as not to burn the candle at both ends.

Duncan Frank

Zavislake

Aug 5, 1949 - Dec 21, 2012

It is with great sadness the family of Duncan Zavislake shares his sudden passing on Dec 21, 2012 at the age of 63. Duncan is deeply missed as husband of 30 years to Evelyn, brother to Colleen, and Dad to the family dogs: Micro, Benson, & Beau, as Nephew, Cousin, and Uncle to many family members, and as VE7ZAV to the Ham Radio community. Duncan was known far and wide for his technical expertise, willingness to help others, never-ending captivating stories, and would always have the requisite part in his basement — somewhere! Duncan was partner with Jack, Ben & Corry of Vella Radio; a thriving communications business in Salmon Arm. A previous oil-exploration career landed Duncan in countries all over the world, and he was a Lifetime Member of NORAC. Family, associates, and friends are grieving and seeking solace in knowing Duncan’s heart failed while doing what he loved — troubleshooting a technical issue for a client. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Kidney Foundation of Canada — BC Branch.

He loved to spend Ɵme outdoors Įshing, hiking, and camping with his family, friends, and grand-dogs. He was an expert wood carver, gemsmith, and ũewelry designer but could oŌen be found in his tool shed as he could repair anything that was broken. He was an avid reader, an expert photographer, and liked to watch hockey and football as he was a loyal Canucks and Lions fan. Dad was born in Armstrong BC and spent his years growing up in Armstrong, Shuswap Falls, and Lumby. In 1954 he met the love of his life Lorraine Nedel. They married in 1956 in Kamloops where they lived and raised their family. Art had a successful 28 ½ year career at the Gulf Kil ZeĮnery as an instrument mechanic. then reƟred, Dom and Dad moved to the Okanagan where they were always together exploring back roads and new places. Art will be sadly missed by his beloved wife Lorraine, his daughters Juanita (Guy); Carla (Harvey); his son Trent (Diyako), his cherished grandchildren: Brody, Darren, Lyndsay, Andrea, Lisa, Reina, and Jay; many nieces, nephews and friends. Art was predeceased by his sister Helen Beemish, his twin sister Evelyn Stringer, and his parents Cecil and Barbara Fisher. He will be remembered by the many organiǌaƟons where he spent countless hours volunteering his Ɵme for those less fortunate than himself. For those who knew Dad would remember his familiar parƟng words: ͞touched you last; not playing.” At Art’s request be no funeral service will be held, but a celebraƟon of his life will be held in the summer. The family would like to thank the staī and nurses at the Salmon Arm Hospital for their care and compassion toward Art and his family.
