Many people hadn’t seen each other for decades. There was a lot of laughter and even tears of joy. “The highlight for me was seeing people meet others they had not seen for 30 or 40 years,” says Sandra. “A school teacher from the 1960s meeting past students was very emotional. Dale Miwa (the teacher) later married Howard Johnston and taught in Salmon Arm. It was pretty evident she was one loved teacher.” “People started absolutely crying, and calling out her name,” says Pat who also witnessed these reunions. “Just watching it brought tears to your eyes.” During the day they had official opening ceremonies with Paul Graham from NL Radio in Kamloops as Master of Ceremonies. MP Cathy McLeod, MLA Todd Stone, and TNRD Director Ken Gillis all attended and gave a few words of congratulations. Of course no Westwold gathering would be complete with their special song. “‘Westwold Valley’ was written years ago by Rod and Kay Jones. Desiree Schley sang it for us,” says Sandra. “Hearing the song brought back bittersweet memories for me. (continued on next pg)

Website guide to teachers’ strike What Canadians are saving for

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press The B.C. government has launched a new website to prepare parents for a possible continuation of the teacher strike after Labour Day. The website, bcparentinfo. ca, promises the latest bargaining updates on B.C.’s festering teacher dispute, and will act as a portal for parents registering to collect $40 a day for each child under 12 if the strike drags on. It also offers links to online learning resources from school districts, which have proliferated in recent years. Talks have continued under a media blackout since mediator Vince Ready met the two

sides last week. “Mr. Ready agreed to monitor the situation, and to resume exploratory talks or commence full mediation when he believes it will be productive,” the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and B.C. Public School Employers’ Association said in a brief statement. Negotiations broke off and a full-scale strike and lockout ended the school year in June. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Kelleher met both sides earlier but declined to attempt mediation, after finding too large a gap between the two sides. Education Minister Peter Fassbender and BCPSEA

Also at issue is class size and special needs support, with BCPSEA’s latest offer rejected by the union and the latest of a series of court actions scheduled for this fall.

TORONTO - A recent CIBC poll finds that almost 60 per cent of Canadians are currently saving up for something other than retirement. Top savings goals include trips, emergency funds and home renovations. While over half of savers say they put funds aside regularly, few Canadians are taking advantage of automatic withdrawals to ensure they meet their savings goals. Key findings of the poll include: • 58 per cent of Canadians are actively saving for something other than retirement right now

Energy drinks

I was in one of our local gas stations to purchase fuel when I noticed a large, eye-catching display case filled with various energy drinks for sale. This got me thinking about how lucrative the energy drink market is, and the effects these products have on one’s health. The main brands include Red Bull, Monster, Adrenalin Rush, Venom, and 5-Hour Energy – most of which have huge marketing and sponsorship budgets designed to increase their exposure and appeal to both adults and children. The labels boldly advertise that their products increase energy and vitality, with an emphasis on various ingredients such as caffeine, herbs, and amino acids suggesting they have a beneficial effect on our health. But, are they truly healthy and safe, or are there hidden health dangers? The main concern is the amount of caffeine: up to 80 mg in many of these drinks. That is more than 3x the amount of caffeine in a can of cola. Excess caffeine can increase heart rate and elevate blood pressure; it will also interfere with sleep patterns and lead to insomnia. The next issue with energy drinks, much like regular soft drinks, is the amount of sugar. These energy drinks can average more than 35 grams of sugar. There are 4 grams of sugar in a teaspoon so 35 grams is almost 9 teaspoons of sugar. In addition to caffeine and sugar, these companies cleverly add

“healthy” ingredients like guarana, taurine, and ginseng to attempt to make their products appear to be good for you. In fact, published medical research has found the levels of “beneficial” amino acids are not high enough to offer any significant health benefits, while the excess caffeine and sugar content presents many negative health effects. Consuming energy drinks before exercise will usually lead to dehydration, which ironically reduces athletic performance. Finally, to further complicate this issue, many younger people are mixing energy drinks with alcohol, which combines a stimulant with a depressant. When consumed in excess, this combination can have serious and sometimes fatal health consequences. The final words on energy drinks are that they aren’t providing you with any health benefits, while they are most likely causing harm to your body. Consuming water is better for your health and performance, costs less, is readily available, and is essential to maintaining hydration. Good health requires conscientious choices, hard work, and time. What you choose to consume in your diet will reflect in the outcome of the state of your health – love yourself enough to live a healthy lifestyle.

Sunﬂower seeds

Sunflower seeds are an excellent source of vitamin E, the body’s primary fat-soluble antioxidant, which helps to regulate cell metabolism. It is believed that vitamin E acts as an anti-clotting agent as well, and aids in the production of new red blood cells. This vitamin neutralizes free radicals that are known to damage healthy cells in the body. It also has an anti-inflammatory effect, which can be helpful with arthritis. In addition, vitamin E plays an important role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease. However, other studies had different results when people took vitamin E supplements. According to one Health Canada study, patients with heart disease or diabetes who took 400 IU of vitamin E daily for an average of seven years were at a significantly increased risk of heart failure compared to patients who were not taking vitamin E supplements. This study concluded that high doses of vitamin E supplements (400 IU or greater) should not be taken by patients with heart disease or diabetes. As a result of this study suggesting that highdose vitamin E supplements may pose a health risk to certain groups of consumers, Health Canada is conducting an in-depth review of the scientific literature on the benefits and risks of high doses of vitamin E. Should this review show that the potential risks outweigh the benefits, appropriate measures will be taken to maintain the health and safety of Canadians. This is another reason that recommends taking vitamin E in natural form. Sunflower seeds have phytosterols, which are believed to help in lowering cholesterol and reducing the risk of certain cancers. Sunflower seeds contain phytosterols in amount of 270-289 mg/100 g. Sunflower seeds are also rich in magnesium and tryphtophan, which help in calming down and in falling asleep. Magnesium also helps in lowering blood pressure; it is an important ingredient for healthy bones, and it may also help people with migraine headaches. Sunflower is also rich in selenium, which is linked to reducing risk of cancer in animal studies. Over and above vitamin E and selenium that are present in sunflower, it also has other good ingredients like copper, folic acid and vitamin B5. There are many reasons to suggest that sunflower seeds can make a good snack. Just one quarter cup of sunflower seeds will provide you with a good source of multiple nutrients.

On the subject of trees

A number of years ago, while I was trolling for rainbows in a bay on Mara Lake, a helicopter with a tree cone-gathering attachment began to hover over large fir trees along the shoreline. A collapsible device was lowered down past the top of each tree, and when the pilot went skyward, it would scoop the cones. He would then land, and a crew would bag them. These would then be transported to a tree nursery. But time changes a lot of things in the logging and silvaculture industry. At one time, forest companies had their own nurseries. Weyerhauser has a large operation at Grandview Flats while Tolko at Armstrong’s large glass-covered nursery sits empty. Recently, I was invited to a birthday bash for a friend, who we sturgeon fish with on the Fraser River each spring. His wife Gail is in charge of a tree nursery called SilvaGro Partnership, with its headquarters in Quesnel. Laid out by the acre in the hot sunshine of the Walacheen flat by the Thompson River are a good million baby pine trees (they grow 32 million)–virtually a small sea of green. But, like growing salmon/trout in a hatchery, and changing genetics to gain growth, trees can now be selected for disease resistance and hardier growth as well. It got me thinking how a forest can have various climate zones, say, up a mountain, with a fir belt, then cedar, hemlock, lodgepole pine, then spruce, then balsam at the top. Recently, while driving to Sicamous, high above the rest area, I spotted a very large fir tree that stood 30 feet taller than all the rest. Was it a special tree with a different genetic make-up? Our forests provide massive watersheds for water storage. Sub-alpine forest retain snowfall for our water supplies, while trillions of root systems provide a wonderful filtration system. Our forests provide recreation/hunting/fishing, and

sustain our wildlife populations. Old-growth forests are particularly important. One tree, called General Sherman, a Sierra Nevada Sequoia is the largest single-stem tree around, until “Big Doug” was discovered near Port Renfew (I believe) here in BC. The photo shows it was clearcut right to its base, but trees talk to one another, and various species provide nutrient to each other through their root systems. This is why you have healthier stands of timber through select logging. Those who have seen the mighty Sitka spruce and their gigantic size know they are very special, almost awe-inspiring. While in Ketchikan, Alaska, a few years back, I was helping my son Steve guide steel headers out of Whale’s Pass. We fished a stream in a nearby national forest which holds huge “piano wood” Sitka spruce–literally gigantic in size. But there is also a special quality to the wood – a rare combination of strength and flexibility. During WWI, aircraft designers discovered that it was a wood perfect for aircraft wings/fuselages. Cut into strips and laminated, it was also ideal for propellers. As well, the wood didn’t splinter when hit by bullets. Thousands of “spruce soldiers” invaded the Queen Charlotte Islands/coastal regions to harvest the tree. In WWII, the Britishbuilt DH-38 mosquito was make entirely of spruce. However, the Spruce Goose–the largest ‘flying boat’ ever built, and owned by Howard Hughes–had only a small amount of spruce in its construction. Although we are clearcut logging at an increased rate in our forests for both government revenue and for a large profit to forest companies, let’s tell our politicians and forest companies we need to get those baby trees back into those cutblocks ASAP after harvest; and a thinning program should be implemented in hundreds of new-

JACK BOWERS SURVIVED THREE CARDIAC ARRESTS. FEWER THAN TWO PERCENT SURVIVE JUST ONE. Jack Bowers, a funeral director and property developer, doesn’t remember 10 days before and five days after he suffered a cardiac arrest on June 20. He was 64. That day he was watching the noon news on TV, and his wife Gayle was sitting on the couch watching too. Because of the teachers’ strike, she was home from her job as a secretary. She heard a funny noise from Jack, looked over and saw he was changing colour and not breathing. She called 911 and was told to get him on the floor, so she dragged him off the couch. She had never learned CPR, but followed the instructions of the operator and began pumping the chest of her dead husband, and counting. Faster! she was told. Gayle lifts weights and is a runner, which helped her to keep pumping for 11 minutes until the ambulance attendants arrived. When she heard the siren, she said the door is locked. The 911 operator said to give a strong pump, unlock the door, then run back quickly and keep pumping! The attendants zapped Jack’s chest with paddles and got his heart beating. They rushed him to emergency, and there he had another cardiac arrest that required paddles. He was rushed to Kelowna General Hospital. His family was at his side but he has no memory of their presence. At 3:45 a.m. the next morning his heart stopped beating a third time. Most people die the first time their heart stops beating because they have no one around to administer cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. Fewer than two percent survive the first. Jack is one of them, thanks to Gayle. Jack underwent many tests during his two-week stay in Kelowna and passed them all. His heart was fine. It was not a heart attack, it was an electrical problem in his heart. He was taken to Victoria’s Royal Jubilee Hospital by air ambulance to have a defibrillator installed in his chest, under local and general anesthetic. It would zap his heart if it slowed or stopped, or if his heart started to race. Jack arrived in Victoria on Friday, July 4th and had the surgery on July 11th. Afterwards, with tubes hanging out, he walked the corridors back and forth, round about. He

amazed the staff by all his walking. After all, he was an athlete. He biked many kilometres, was a triathlete, and was training for a race with his son, Jonathan, and daughter, Cappi. He was in top physical shape and ideal weight. He told them he wanted to be home on the weekend. The cardiologist agreed to discharge him for Saturday. The hospital’s social worker had to arrange documentation for his flight. Jack told him if he went off duty at 4 p.m. and didn’t get documentation, he would have to wait till he returns on Monday. Air Canada got him to Vancouver on Saturday, and when the airline staff saw that he didn’t look well, they must have bumped someone from a flight that was fully booked and got him to Kelowna right away. His wife Gayle was there to meet him. It was July 12, just 22 days since his first cardiac arrest when he died and was kept alive by his wife. He was back to work at Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium a month later, on July 14. When I interviewed him on August 18, he was doing two funerals that day. He was walking 35 to 90 minutes a day, and missed only one day during the first month at home. He’s back cycling. He’s not worried at all. His heart is fine. He knows his energy will come back. Jack is impressed with the care he received and stresses this: our health system works! BACK AT ROOTS & BLUES AFTER ABOUT 10 YEARS It takes hundreds of volunteers to put on a successful three-day music festival, and even with many volunteer hours it is tough to be profitable, but the festival-goers enjoy it so much, they will want to come back next year. They will plan their summer around it. This year, I volunteered with Salmon Arm Citizens Patrol, a volunteer group that assists the RCMP. Working in pairs, four-hours shifts at a time for all three days, not inside the grounds because the festival had its own volunteer security. We patrolled outside the Roots & Blues grounds, as requested by the RCMP. On Sunday afternoon, Sue Kershaw, president of Citizens Patrol, and I checked on Canoe Beach, and then drove up to walk through the three RV parking lots in fields across 10th Ave. We met many people who were from out of town. All were pleased with the music and stages. The weather was perfect. S. ADAMS GIVES FEEDBACK TO ROOTS & BLUES MUSIC On Sunday, the final day of the three-days Roots & Blues Festival in Salmon Arm, at 11:47 p.m. I received this email in response to my comments last week on the loud music. The writer, S. Adams lives two blocks from the fairgrounds:

Letters to the Editor

Washrooms at McGuire Lake would be nice

The issue is simple. There are no washrooms at McGuire Lake. There are picnic tables. There are waste barrels. We see many people over the summer months; visitors to our small town enjoying the outdoors for a picnic lunch sitting at the tables.

My husband and I often go through ‘drive-thru’ fast food outlets and park at McGuire Lake. We’re always looking for washroom facilities. It takes the fun out of picnicking at McGuire Lake. Carole Kuhnel, Eagle Bay

“Dear Mrs. Scales, The time is now 11:41 p.m. The music from the Roots and Blues is so loud that I can hear every word from two blocks away. If this was Joe Blow citizen playing music this loud at this time of night, they would have bylaw enforcement at their door in a big hurry. I am a senior and don’t sleep that good at the best of times. This is disrupting my right to peace and QUIET in my own home. You said if we didn’t like the music to watch TV. Well, the music is so loud I cannot hear my TV over it. As for it only being one weekend, that is true, but there again, I am entitled to my peace and quiet at this time of night. As for the money it generates in town, at what cost? Or don’t the little people matter anymore? S. Adams, Salmon Arm, two blocks from the fairgrounds.” MAKE A COPY OF THE RESTAURANTS Last week this column named many Salmon Arm restaurants, and gave their address and phone number.

BC HAS INCREASED SPEED LIMITS ON MANY HIGHWAYS I made a quick trip to the Lower Mainland last week and I LOVE the new 120 km/h speed limit on the Coquihalla Highway. When it was 110, I was always on the lookout for a police car with radar. Not this time. My car likes to go 140 downhill, and I had to slow it down a couple of times.

Smiley enters federal NDP race

Richard Smiley is officially a candidate for nomination as the NDP candidate in the

next federal election. Smiley, who has been campaigning since the spring at community events in the N o r t h OkanaganShuswap riding, recently received notification that federal office has approved his candidacy. “It’s a bit of a relief, but I’ve acted all along as if it would be

accepted,” said Smiley, who went to school in Salmon Arm. He has a degree in Political Science from UBC, a teaching certificate, and BA in agriculture (subtropical horticulture) from Hebrew University, Israel. “All my life, I and my family have been involved in social and environmental battles, and this one (Northern Gateway pipeline) has to be the biggest of all: we have a planet to save, and precious lit-

Summer vacation

For a couple of years, my wife and I have talked about travelling down the Oregon Coast for a holiday. It was something I did when I was a kid with my family, and we’d heard many good things from friends who had done it recently. Well, this summer we decided it was the right time to tackle this adventure. If you know me, I’m not very good at simply jumping in a vehicle and moseying along without a plan. So we spent many hours researching and planning out our trip in order to get the most “bang for the buck.” Don’t get me wrong; the plan isn’t as rigid as it sounds, but we do like to have an idea of what things we can do ahead of time and where we’re going to lay our heads each night. Besides, a part of the fun of going on a vacation for us is planning it together as a family and building up the anticipation of the adventure. We had hoped to stay in yurts or cabins along the coast, but I started my planning a little late, and as a result, it was impossible to find any available yurts, and difficult to find cabins. So in the end, we forked out a little extra to stay in hotels except for the couple nights that we stayed in a cabin. The cabin was great, except I had gotten my wires crossed as to the size of it. I thought I had booked a tworoom cabin with a queen and two sets of

bunk beds. When we opened the door we quickly found out it was a one-room cabin with a queen and one bunk bed. So the boys tried sleeping in the bunk beds end to end. However, the lack of space, as well as feet in each other’s faces created a lot of squirming and jostling and eventually two of the boys moved to the floor with their sleeping bags. Usually it would require rock-paper-scissors to determine who would be delegated to the floor, but two of the boys volunteered right away. I’m not sure if the quick response was because of fatigue or the poor quality of the

mattress, but we parents sure appreciated the decisiveness. Though we got less sleep than we did when we stayed in hotels, we did enjoy staying in the cabin. What the cabin lacked in amenities (TV, bathroom, fridge etc.), it made up in fun as the kids played games and threw the baseball around instead lying around with their eyes glued to the TV. Besides, it gives my sons a “Do you remember when…” story to tell their kids. Besides the sleepless nights in a cabin and witnessing a near brawl at the border crossing, we had a wonderful time crabbing, hiking, sandboarding and explor-

Two candidates, Smiley and Gingras, will be on the ballot when the NDP membership meets on Saturday, August 23rd in Armstrong to elect their representative in the next federal election.

This year’s annual Secwepemc gathering, held August 15th through 17th, hosted more than the traditional pow wow, games and feasting. The gathering also hosted the first round of Secwepemc Territorial Authority meetings held just off the pow wow grounds to discuss, among other things, traditional self-governance and resisting destructive resource extraction, in the wake of the Imperial Metals Mount Polley mine tailings pond spill on Secwepemc territory. The newly-formed Territorial Authority has collected over 200 signatures and a sacred fire at the spill site was lit on Monday, August 18th. Secwepemc Women Warrior Society member Kanahus Manuel attended the meetings and had this to say: “This is a wake-up call and a rallying cry for all people. We all drink water. It is especially a wake-up call and rallying cry for our people who are at risk of losing our salmon, clean water and our way of life. We will not stand by and wait for government or industry, who have yet to appropriately address the spill and clean up; we will act to uphold our responsibility to protect our territory.” The Secwepemc will also be enforcing the eviction notice issued by the Neskonlith band against another Imperial Metals operation in Secwepemc territory, Ruddock Creek mine. The Secwepemc also called for actions and ceremonies in solidarity across Turtle Island this past week. The sacred fire was lit in solidarity with the Klabona Keepers’ Red Chris mine blockades.

On Friday, August 22 at 11:00 a.m. the City of Enderby is unveiling a plaque to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the War Measures Act, the legislation that led to Canada’s first national internment operations. During Canada’s first national internment operations of 1914-1920, thousands of men, women and children were branded as “enemy aliens,” and many were interned, forced to do heavy labour for the profit of their jailers, disenfranchised, and subjected to other state-sanctioned indignities, not because of any wrong they had done, but only because of who they were, or where they had come from. The public is invited to join Mayor Cyr at the unveiling, which will be held at the Drill Hall (208 George Street). The unveiling is part of a ‘wave’ of 100 plaque unveilings across Canada. More information can be found at www.internmentcanada.ca, or contact Canadian First World War Internment at 1-866-288-7931.

Explore the Shuswap Great Dining • Great shopping • Great fun Silver Creek Community Park is just under 18 acres and is divided by Salmon River Road. The west side of the park has beautiful old growth ponderosa pine and douglas fir stands. The east portion contains a baseball field with an adjacent concession stand and toilets. A horse riding ring

expands this day use park into a multi-purpose facility. Silver Creek Community Park is located 15 km south of Salmon Arm on the Salmon River Road (3.5 km south of the Silver Creek store). When you are traveling south, the park is on your left.

Imagine a huge letter ‘H,’ carved into granite and filled with water, and you have begun to describe Shuswap Lake. Comprised of four arms, Shuswap Lake includes the Shuswap Lake Main Arm, Salmon Arm, Anstey Arm and Seymour Arm, all meeting in the middle at Cinnemousun Narrows. Mature salmon return every fall from the Pacific Ocean to breed and die in the streams and rivers of their birth, following the South Thompson River into Little Shuswap Lake, Adams River, and Shuswap Lake. For thousands, the journey continues east, right through to Mara and Mabel Lakes. Because of its location in the Columbia Mountain Range, Shuswap Lake is already more than 340 metres, or 1100 feet, above sea level, and like most mountain lakes, it’s deep, more than 160 metres (520 feet), ideal for fish that need cool, deep water. Along the almost 350 kilometres of shoreline, the lake’s shallower waters warm up to a delightful 71-72 degrees Fahrenheit in summer, ideal for bathers and boaters, who generally prefer their water at warmer temperatures than what the fish enjoy.

Catch the Salmon Arm Fair

Where can you find excellent entertainment, displays of high quality food, animals and crafts, a large variety of delicious treats to eat, a lively midway, and a great destination for all generations to meet and greet friends and family? Well, the Salmon Arm Fair, of course! Set aside time on September 5th, 6th or 7th to attend the 2014 edition of the Fair, marking the 100th anniversary of 4-H in BC. Back this year is the highly popular West Coast Lumberjack Show. This entertaining blend of skills, heroics, history and humour is sure to

please young and old. Global FMX Freestyle will strike awe in the hearts of spectators with their high-flying motocross act on 5th Ave (between the north and south fairgrounds) on Saturday and Sunday. Anyone who has seen these riders before will know to expect some jaw-dropping stunts! Elvis tribute artist Adam Fitzpatrick always attracts large, enthusiastic crowds for all his shows. Happily, Adam is returning again this year with his ‘Evolution of Elvis’ performance, and will be on the main stage on Sunday. The ever-popular Shuswap Idol, high-

lighting local talent, will take place on the main stage over the course of the fair, along with other music and dance. Saturday morning’s parade is fun for all, although especially appealing to those with a sweet tooth! A variety of food and drink booths at the fairgrounds will keep everyone happily satisfied. Mini chuckwagon races will heat up the grandstand over the weekend. Tiny wagons pulled by a team of four miniature horses make an entertaining spectacle that you will not soon forget. Shooting Star Midway will again bring various rides and games of chance to thrill and delight fairgoers. For history buffs, there are the artifacts of Memory Lane and the working displays by the Shuswap Pioneer Collectors Club. And of course it wouldn’t be a fair without the judges selecting ribbon winners to showcase the “best of the best” agricultural animals, foods, and crafts. For more information, go to the Fair website: www.salmonarmfair.com. Make some wonderful memories this year at the Salmon Arm Fair!

Explore the Shuswap Great Dining • Great shopping • Great fun Green spaces in Enderby

Belvidere Park Located at the historical site where paddle-wheelers once docked, Belvidere Park offers the best view of the Enderby Cliffs and Shuswap River. The city park features the Visitor Centre and Chamber of Commerce offices, with public washrooms, picnic tables, Riverwalk access, and a canoe launch on the Shuswap River. The park is conveniently located near to the downtown and beside the Enderby bridge. Barnes Park This large, grassy acreage has a heated outdoor pool, picnic tables, playground, and a large area for outdoor sports. It’s a great place to ‘park’ yourself for the day. Bring your picnic basket and enjoy some rest & relaxation. Located in Barnes Park is the Enderby Skateboard Park which was designed and built with input from local youth. The competition park is located next to a playground

and offers access to the flush toilets and hot shower facilities. Riverside Park Riverside Park includes three baseball diamonds with a

grandstand, public washrooms, a playground, and a large gazebo perfect for outdoor events such as weddings and parties. Riverside Park also holds the Enderby Arena and Curling Rink. The park is conveniently located next to the Riverside RV Park. The Enderby Arena has seating capacity for 900 and hosts public skating, hockey, and ringette. The curling rink is used for practices, games, and tournaments for teams from around the region. Tuey Park The wide, sandy beach of Tuey Park is very popular with

local swimmers. It is often referred to as “Waterwheel Park” due to the waterwheel and flume which were built in 1911 on the site to irrigate the surrounding farmland. J. Tuey Park is located on a bend in the Shuswap River at the north end of Enderby. The water at this point in the river is especially calm and shallow but swimmers are advised to keep a sharp look out for boats in the deeper main channel. There is a picnic area, washrooms, and an adjacent dog park for pet owners. It’s a perfect way to stay cool on those lazy hot days of summer. Grindrod Park Located in downtown Grindrod beside the Grindrod bridge is a ballpark, playground, picnic and swimming area. There are many picnic tables and shady spots for camping. The river here flows slowly and is excellent for swimming and canoeing. Grindrod Park is just a 10 minute drive north of Enderby on Highway 97A.

Inspections ordered

This is a slipcover. I can do this for your chair or sofa.

By Tom Fletcher, Black Press Independent engineering inspections have been ordered for Mount Polley mine near Williams Lake and nearly 100 other mine tailings ponds with permits across the province, with reports to be complete by the end of January. Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett announced the dual reviews Monday. The Mount Polley investigation is to be complete by Jan. 31 and will be done concurrently with the B.C. government’s legally required probes by B.C.’s chief inspector of mines and the environment ministry, which looks at the longer-term effects of the Aug. 4 tailings spill. Bennett said costs will be covered by Imperial Metals for Mount Polley and by all operators of mines with permits to operate nearly 100 tailings

Meditations Read: Psalm 103

How Great Is That? O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. - Psalm 8:1 In today’s Bible reading, the psalmist glorifies God from a heart simply overflowing with blessing and praise. Verse 11 especially contains an interesting comparison, declaring that the mercy of God is as great as the distance of the heavens above the earth. How great is that? Scientists have measured the distance from the earth to many bodies in the heavens. The distance to the moon is about 240 thousand miles. The sun is about 93 million miles from the earth. But the sun, moon, and planets are all in our solar system. How far is it to the heavens where the stars are? The closest star beyond the sun is Proxima Centauri, which lies 4.22 lightyears away (24.7 trillion miles). A light-year is the distance that light travels in one year, at 186,300 miles per second. So even the closest star in the heavens is a long way off. So great is the mercy of God! In 1977, scientists launched two space probes called Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. Voyager 1 travels 37,100 miles per hour and is now over 9 billion miles away from the earth. If we could travel at the speed of Voyager 1, how long would it take to get to Proxima Centauri? The trip would take 75,000 years! These astronomical distances are hard to grasp. But so great is the mercy of our God! Let us take time right now to thank God for His unfathomable mercy. There is no sin so great, no deed so dark, that the mercy of God through Jesus Christ will not forgive and forget. Verse 17 says that the mercy of God is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear Him. Claim it! James Baer - Salmon Arm, BC

The mercy of God is as vast, incomprehensible, and eternal as God Himself.

facilities in B.C. “Certainly in the last 40 years there’s no evidence of a tailings dam breach in British Columbia, but rare or not, it happened, and so the public’s confidence I think is shaken” Bennett said at a news conference in Vancouver. “That’s why we need to get these three experts involved as quickly as we’re getting them involved.” The Mount Polley panel includes UBC mine engineering professor Dirk Van Zyl, U.S. consulting engineer Steven Vick, whose earlier investigations included the 2005 New Orleans levee breach that followed Hurricane Katrina, and Norbert Morgenstern, an Alberta civil engineering professor who has worked on 140 mine projects. Bennett said the panel was chosen with approval of the

Williams Lake and Soda Creek Indian Bands, and their report will be made available to the band councils at the same time as government. Independent inspections of other mine tailings ponds must be completed Dec. 1, a change from the March 31 deadline for inspections that are required annually. Bennett said these inspections will each have to be reviewed by an independent geotechnical engineering firm.

Bagged recyclables accepted

The Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) residential, curbside Blue Bag Recycling Program ended on May 16, 2014 and was replaced by the MultiMaterial British Columbia (MMBC) Curbside Blue Box Recycling Program. Residents are strongly encouraged to participate in the new curbside program for the Packaging and Printed Paper outlined in the MMBC guide which can be found at www.recyclinginbc.ca. The level of recycling services provided at all RDNO Recycling and Disposal Facilities (RDFs) has not changed with the introduction of the MMBC curbside program. RDF customers can continue to drop off Blue Bag Recyclables at all RDNO RDFs at no charge. Residents and businesses who utilize the recycling drop centres provided at RDNO RDFs must bag RDNO accepted recyclable items, including clean paper, cardboard, plastics with numbers 1-7 in the recycling loop (not including Styrofoam), as well as food grade tin and aluminum products. MMBC items including aerosol cans, gable top milk cartons, coffee cups, pet food bags, or any plastic container without the numbers 1-7 are not accepted at RDNO RDF recycling drop centres and must be placed at the curbside or taken to an MMBC Depot. The Recycling Drop Centre at the Greater Vernon Recycling and Disposal Facility (GVRDF) has

been upgraded. The Blue Bag Recyclables bin at the GVRDF has been removed in favour of a temporary bunker for bagged (blue bag or clear bag) recyclables. GVRDF customers are requested to simply place their bagged recyclables over the concrete median onto the paved surface. Please stay out of the blue bag marshalling area as heavy equipment is active in this area. Loose, bulk cardboard continues to be accepted in the blue roll off bins at the GVRDF Recycling Drop Centre, as do glass jars and bottles (place in the designated containers). Styrofoam is also accepted in the shipping container next to the Residential Drop-Off Area for garbage, metal, and wood. A drop-off fee applies for Styrofoam. The RDNO continues to strive to reduce the quantity of material disposed and thanks all customers for doing their part to reduce waste. Residents with household hazardous waste may recycle and dispose of items with poisonous or corrosive labels, used oil, fuel and unknown chemical varieties in containers up to 20 litres at the upcoming Household Hazardous Waste Round Up on Saturday, September 13 at the Enderby and Lumby Fire Halls (8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.), and the RDNO office parking lot in Coldstream (8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.). For further information about RDNO waste reduction initiatives, contact the RDNO at 250550-3700 or by email at recycle@ rdno.ca.

CAPRICORN

Capricorn, even though you don’t have much time for yourself, you feel compelled to spend more time with others. Make some time for yourself as well.

AQUARIUS

Aquarius, you secretly enjoy when others come to you for advice. Think carefully before making any suggestions, and your friends will be more appreciative because of it.

PISCES

Now is the time to further your studies, Pisces. Figure out how to finance a return to school and make the most of the opportunity.

ARIES

Aries, exercise caution when expressing your needs. It can be difficult to stop when you are drumming up so much excitement. Now is not the time to take a risk.

TAURUS

Taurus, you may have overextended yourself this week. You didn’t realize you had taken on so much until it was too late, but there is still time to backtrack.

GEMINI

Gemini, committing to a daily routine can have a strong impact on your overall health. Consider tailoring a new routine for yourself, and you’ll reap the healthy rewards.

CANCER

Take things slow with a budding relationship this week, Cancer. You don’t want to go too fast and find yourself in over your head. Let things develop gradually.

LEO

Leo, carefully consider any offer that seems too good to be true this week. While the person making the offer is not ill-intentioned, you still must exercise caution.

VIRGO

Big ideas sweep in this week and leave you with a lot of inspiration, Virgo. Don’t get too lost in fantastical ideas, though. Wait a little bit before finalizing plans.

The Shuswap Hospital Foundation was recently presented with a $1,500 donation from a group of folks who decided that the fruits of their labour should benefit patient care at Shuswap Lake General Hospital. The group - Salmon Arm residents Chris and Marg Parfitt, Nick and Jane Parson, K.J. and Alex Seal as well as Glenn and Joan Willing of Victoria – picked as many cherries as they could in order to raise funds for a donation to Shuswap Hospital Foundation. A great idea from some generous, hard working folks!.....Shuswap Hospital Foundation much appreciates their generosity and community spirit!.

HAVANKA, GILBERT Jan. 1942 – Aug. 1, 2014 Gil’s life: Gilbert (also called Gil or Gilby) was born at Wetaskiwin, AB on January 28, 1942. Gil was raised on a farm and lived a very busy farm life. He was the oldest child of Reino and Helen Havanka. Other children born later are a brother, Dale, and a sister, Karen. In Alberta, Gil attended school at Ernest Park and completed high school at Falun. He was very athletic playing hockey on the Falun team, was a pitcher on the ball teams as well as playing horseshow with his Dad and uncles. Gil helped on the farm until his late teens and then worked on oil rigs. In the early 60’s he worked as a power lineman for Ace Construction. In 1965 he married Lois Hill and moved to Edmonton. He changed jobs and began working for Edmonton Power. His daughter, Lanette, was born in 1969. In 1972 Gil went to Auctioneer School at Lacombe, AB and got his license as an auctioneer. He became a partner in the Wetaskiwin Auction Market. He bought land in the Falun area and moved his family to the farm in 1973. He sold his interest in the Auction Market but continued to auctioneer at cattle sales. A daughter, Theresa, was born in 1975. Gil started trucking under the business name of Mulhurst Transport hauling oil drums and materials for Bonnie Glen Gas Plant. He bought a caterpillar and other equipment keeping very busy with the farming and raising cattle as well. In 1982 Gil and Lois sold the farm and moved to Salmon Arm, B.C. Gil worked for Armstrong Farm Equipment for a few months and then bought a small farm where he raised cattle and hay. He loved to farm and took on custom work. He had different sizes of John Deere tractors and other farm equipment. He loved working for other people tilling their fields, putting up their hay, etc. In the winter he snowplowed for some trailer parks, churches or wherever he was needed. His daughters married and he was blessed with four grandchildren – Daniah, Kalee, Gillian and Brady. He treasured his grandkids and took them for tractor rides to show them the baby calves and farm animals. In the winter he made tracks for them to tobbagan and bought a snowmobile for them to get up and down the hills. They called him “Pop” and loved to come to the farm every chance they had. Over the years Gil and Lois travelled with friends and family to Fairmont Hotsprings and found time to do some camping. They managed some winter holidays to the warm resorts and also took a couple of cruises. Gil enjoyed playing cards and socializing. He had a great sense of humour. From an early age he loved music and was very talented playing the accordion from age 8. Later he played guitar and loved singing country music. He sang with friend Walter Breitkreuz in earlier years in AB, and his Finlander friend, Jim Niemi in Salmon Arm. Singing on camping trips and family events with his daughters was a real joy to him. A big project that Gil became involved in was building the Canoe Creek Golf Couse. This project took about 2 years. He worked up the ground, leveling and seeding the course. His knowledge and work was really appreciated and Gil felt a lot of pride when the course was finally developed. He did enjoy golfing with friends and family over the years and with his “golfing buddies” each week. They would often have a beer together and rehash the game. Gil would also spend several weeks in the fall helping his brother, Dale, with the harvest in the Wetaskiwin area. There wasn’t a job that he couldn’t do and his family will miss his presence as they harvest the crops this year. Gil developed health problems spending some time in hospital, but still continued to be a busy man never refusing to help out the neighbours or take on a project. He had a farm sale in September of 2013. Gil and Lois bought lots downtown and built a new home. Gil still had to have his tractor so bought a small 5560 John Deere tractor with a rototiller and grasscutter. Even with his health deteriorating Gil seldom refused a job if someone phoned. He was a very tough and determined man. After January of this year he was diagnosed with blocked heart valves and it was too risky to operate with other mounting health problems. Gil was in and out of hospital many times. He passed away peacefully in Salmon Arm hospital on August 1st. Services were held at Elks Hall in Salmon Arm on August 6th and at Falun Hall in Alberta on August 11th. Gil had many friends and will be missed by people in the community. There has been a huge outpouring of love shown which is much appreciated by Lois and the family. The reponse after his death truly shows the heartfelt appreciation and respect for Gil. Arrangements entrusted to Fischer’s Funeral Services & Crematorium Ltd., Salmon Arm (250) 833-1129. Email condolences and share memories at www. fischersfuneralservices.com.

Elizabeth May Kenner

After a brave battle with cancer, Betty passed away at home on Sunday evening August 10, 2014, with her family at her side. Born January 12, 1939, in Salmon Arm to Jack and Sylvia Phillips, Betty is survived by Bill, the love of her life for 51 years; her daughters Kim (Dave Erb), Gerri, and Kenas (Steve Schell); and by her brother Jack Phillips. Betty was also a loving grandmother to Phillip, Kenny, and Sydney. Betty had a fun-loving and fearless spirit. Friends and family relished her ability to speak her mind. Even on the most challenging days, Betty’s wit and humour kept her family strong. Family members would often challenge each other to “Betty up” when courage was needed. She taught her daughters to be grateful for life and its blessings. She would remind them, “Make each day count, because you’re not getting it back. Do what you want to do.” She loved treating her grandchildren to homemade Nanaimo squares or a trip to the candy shop. The family would like to sincerely thank: Ron and Myrna Treat; Bruce and Rosa Mierau; David De Camillis; Laurence Roy and his staff at Remedy’s Pharmacies; Dr. Victoria Edmondson and the staff from the Salmon Arm Medical Clinic; Jay Lyn from Community Care Nurses; Hospice volunteer Sherry Lundholm; Dr. Gerry Chu; Dr. Kristy Chu; and Carolyn Wilson.

Great views of Salmon Arm and bay

Two mountains dominate the north and south sides of Salmon Arm and its bay: Bastion Mountain and Mt. Ida. Both have superb views from the top and are reachable by means other than a helicopter. The easiest one to reach is Bastion Mountain, especially if you have a 4-wheel drive vehicle, as a rough road leads to the communication towers at the top, with only a few metres walk to near the cliff edge. My husband Ian and I have been to the viewpoint area twice in the past couple of months, the first time in the evening, and the second time in the morning. Both had wonderful views, but probably my favourite time was the morning, as the Gleneden side of the bay was in the sun instead of in the shadows. There are various places near View from Bastion Mtn. to Salmon Arm and Mt. Ida. Photo the cliff where there are absolutely by Wendy Clay. magnificent views towards Salmon Arm, with Mt.

Also this year, Ian hiked with some friends from the Shuswap Outdoors Club to the very northwest edge of the West Peak of Mt. Ida. It involved a 4-wheel drive up logging roads for some distance, then about a hike of 1 1/2 hours of minor bushwhacking following a motorcycle track and a powersaw -bucked route through windfall to the top.
