Crowd-sourced strike resource for BC parents, students in French immersion
Ten weeks (and counting) is a long time for students to be away from a classroom. As of the 2012/20113 school year, 47,857 students were enrolled in French immersion programs in B.C., accounting for 8.5% of the total public school student population. In addition, 187,964 students were participating in the Core French program, making up almost one third (32.5%) of all public school students. To mitigate the uncertainty of a prolonged labour dispute, and school closures, many French Immersion and Core French parents
are searching for opportunities to connect their children to extra-curricular activities, day camps, media, and resources, en français. To help connect these families to emerging activities and resources, Canadian Parents for French BC & Yukon has launched this crowdsourced resource for BC families. The goal is to help bring together opportunities for youth to engage with the French language and/or culture during potential school closures. You can find this resource online at http:// bc-yk.cpf.ca/resources/for-parents/2014-
strike-resource-for-students-in-french-programs/. Canadian Parents for French is a national non-partisan registered charity dedicated to promoting and creating quality French second language opportunities for all youth. CPF BC & Yukon is the largest Branch in Canada; they are supported by over 7,000 active members and 360 parent volunteers. There is a Shuswap/Salmon Arm chapter of CPF; find them on Facebook by searching for Canadian Parants for French, Salmon Arm Chapter.

Breathing right?
Did you know that the average adult takes 20,000 to 30,000 breaths in a single day, often without any conscious awareness or effort? It’s only when something inhibits our ability to breathe does it become the most important part of our existence. Generally we are only really focused on our breathing when we are partaking in more strenuous activities such as underwater swimming where we must hold our breath for an extended period, or when we are exercising our body very hard. These activities will direct our attention towards our breath; however, through a normal day it is also very important to be somewhat conscious of our breathing. I suggest we need to be conscious of our breathing practices because many individuals do not breathe correctly. To breathe correctly means you are filling your lungs with air right down to the lower lobes. This in turn maximizes the amount of oxygen your lungs can capture in order to disperse through your body to all of the cells, organs, and tissues. To ensure we are breathing right and providing our bodies with enough oxygen, your focus needs to be on your diaphragm and abdomen, not on your chest where your lungs are located. Let me explain. The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle along the bottom of your ribs that separates the chest and lungs from the organs in the abdomen. When your body needs to inhale air the diaphragm contracts and pulls downward to draw oxygen into the lungs. To exhale, it relaxes and carbon dioxide is forced out. Seems straightforward, but where people go wrong is when they are assisting the diaphragm by raising and lowering their chest rather than pushing their belly in and out. There are a number of reasons why people get this wrong and breathe with their chest. Some of the most common causes of shallow breathing are excess stress, fear, and even vanity – that is holding your belly in so it looks flatter. To breathe properly, when you inhale your belly button should move outwards more than your chest. This ensures the lower lobes of the lungs are filling with life-giving oxygen. To see if you are breathing right, when you are sitting quietly place your hand on your lower belly and with every breath in it should move one inch outwards. Practicing this proper breathing technique will help your body release stress and tension, promote higher levels of oxygenation to the body, and even reduce heart rate and blood pressure. For more healthy lifestyle advice contact Dr. Warren Gage at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 803-0224.

Sound and its health effects
Different sounds have different health benefits. In the histories of various countries music and sound have been used in treating diseases. In India, Gandharva Veda (MGV) music is the classical music of the Vedic civilization, made thousands of years ago by Vedic sages. Today, it is becoming more well-known for its health benefits. MGV music decreases tension and irritability and promotes relaxation of mind and body. Tibetan bowls are rubbed in a circular fashion, which produces a unique sound which has healing properties. ‘Om’ in Hindu culture is considered to be the humming sound of this cosmic energy, and chanting it a few times gives oneself immediate peace of mind and reduces stress. We all know that stress has negative effects on health. The Celtic harp has a rich and resonant sound, which is soothing and helps to create an atmosphere of peace. Some studies have shown that listening to harp music helps regulate heartbeats. I feel that all musical instruments, whether studies have been done on them or not, have positive effects on health, as music brings peace and joy to the
heart. Of course, the music has to be melodious and soothing, and not the opposite. I am sure you know what I mean. The waterfall sound produces a calming effect and relaxes a tensed body. It also helps in improving concentration. Water sounds can help in meditation and enhance the advantages of meditation. One can visit our Margaret Falls, west of Salmon Arm, to bring peace and tranquility to mind. It also helps to have a small waterfall on a desk or in the house to relieve stress. Various kinds and sizes of waterfalls, are available. Sounds of ocean movement or lake waves are refreshing, calming and reduce anxiety and stress. They can also help lower blood pressure. The sound of rain helps promote relaxation and sleep. It is not unusual to see audio CDs in stores with sounds of nature. Autumn is upon us, and we can make use of good, melodious sound to be entertained and to promote good health. Readers with enquiries may contact Kosha Vaidya via email at koshahealing@gmail.com.

South Shuswap Health Services news
www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
September is a busy month for the South Shuswap Health Services Society! They have an exciting venture to announce: SSHSS is sponsoring the establishment of The Copper Island Seniors Resource Centre in Blind Bay, to be located in the former Chamber of C o m m e r c e / To u r i s m Information Center with a planned opening the last week of September. The need for this service became apparent through their involvement with the “Better at Home” program, sponsored by the Ministry of Health administered through United Way, which aims to provide non-medical assistance that will enable seniors to stay in their own homes longer, an attractive alternative to leaving the community to find a suitable care facility. This goal coordinates perfectly with the vision of the Copper Island Seniors
Resource Centre – “to provide information, and coordination of services for seniors of the South Shuswap communities.” Call George Landry 250804-3637 or Simon Brown 250-675-2140 to become involved or provide suggestions. Proposed services of the Copper Island Seniors Resource Center include: • Seniors grocery shopping • Seniors transportation for all needs to compliment existing services available • Seniors’ Computer Tutoring – they have partnered with LASS to apply for a Federal New Horizons Grant (subject to approval) • Providing reasonably priced frozen meals for sale • Providing pamphlets and other material on seniors’ programs available through IHA and through other volunteer groups in the surrounding communities • Friendly visits
• Assistance with income tax, and forms/applications • Onsite intake services for seniors interested in Shuswap Better At Home Services • Maintain an up-to-date index of service providers • Host support groups • Other services requested by seniors In our ongoing physician recruitment efforts, SSHSS attended the National Rural Physicians Conference (March) in Banff, where many physicians in their last year of studies showed interest in the potential for setting up a new practice in BC. They invited Sicamous Medical Clinic and the North Shuswap Health Society to share a booth and work on recruitment with them at the BC Rural Physicians conference (May) in Penticton. The conferences provided several leads and they are following up on these. Currently, three physicians have

expressed interest in establishing a medical clinic in Blind Bay. Discussions are ongoing without firm commitments, but with September 2015 as a possible target date for the clinic. Initially it will take community support during the startup phase of the clinic in both volunteer hours and raising funds. If you are concerned about supporting services for seniors, health and medical services, or planning for healthy communities in the South Shuswap, will you become involved? Community participation will be the way to successfully attract and sustain medical, health and community services in our communities. By becoming involved, you can help support these essential initiatives that will build our communities. Go online to www.sshss.ca to purchase a membership or update your existing membership.

Massage therapy
First, the what.... what is massage therapy? It is a designated profession regulated by the Health Professions Act of British Columbia, maintained and governed by the College of Massage Therapy. Massage is a series of techniques used to manipulate the muscles, soft tissue, fascia (a.k.a. connective tissue) and joints used in acute, subacute, and chronic conditions. This helps to relieve pain, increase range of motion through the joints, and over all enhance the aspects of daily living. Now the why…. let’s face it, pain is an everyday battle for a lot of people. Not being able to reach the top shelf in the kitchen because your shoulder spasms is not alright, this isn’t something that is or should ever be “just part of life.” Massage is not only for pain either. The vast effects massage can offer includes increased circulation, improved digestion, decreased stress, and the freedom to move about with an active lifestyle. Among many other benefits, it may be just what you’re looking for in bodywork. Finally, the how…. your body is ALIVE! It is a living being and is constantly monitored in our subconscious. Every muscle, joint, organ, down to every last cell is communicating with the big boss upstairs. Using techniques to manipulate different aspects of the body encourages change. For muscles, targeting the proprioceptors within the tendons and the muscle belly promotes re-alignment of the fibers and an
increase in circulation, which brings fresh nutrient and oxygen rich blood. This contributes to removing those nasty knots and discouraging them from returning. As for joints, they work very similar to muscles with proprioceptors that constantly monitor their positions relative to the rest of the body. Using joint mobilizations can help reset these receptors and allows the joint to articulate smoother with less wear and tear. Organs also have proprioceptors and tend to get re-arranged due to pregnancy, abdominal surgeries, and other lifestyle factors. This can lead to compression and distention, which affects how an organ functions, as well as compromising that precious circulation, which most organs deal with intimately. Your body is precious – if an aspect is not functioning to its fullest potential, you’re not functioning to your fullest potential. Like a vehicle, your body was designed in a very specific manner. With different lifestyles and careers, our bodies adapt to the constant postures that we take on. Unfortunately, these daily habits can cause dysfunction, which leads to pain and discomfort. Through an interview and assessment, we can discover what your body needs, and tailor a massage treatment and home care that includes stretching and strengthening to improve your functionality and over all physical health. Invest in your body, at Chadalin Medi-Spa. - paid advertisement

POW WOW AT ROUND LAKE TREATMENT CENTRE Congratulations to Round Lake for celebrating its 35th anniversary last weekend. When it opened its doors, it was the first of its kind in Western Canada: a treatment centre for addicts run by First Nations for First Nations. The Round Lake Treatment Centre opened on the shore of Round Lake between Vernon and Falkland in 1979. The anniversary celebration was held all day Saturday, Sept. 6 and Sunday morning. www.roundlaketreatmentcentre.ca KAMLOOPS HOSTS WELLNESS FESTIVAL Sept. 26, 27 and 28 are the dates of the Interior Wellness Festival in the entire building of the campus activity centre at Thompson Rivers University. For a complete program go to www.interiorwellness.com YOU’RE GETTING OLD. DEAL WITH IT The Financial Post magazine had the above six words in big block letters on the front page if its glossy September issue. Why are major publications targeting me these days? WHY GIVE A DISCOUNT TO RICH CANADIAN SENIORS There has been a shift in the nature of wealth in Canada states an article in the Sept. 6 MacLean’s online magazine (www.macleans.ca). “Seniors have long been considered society’s most vulnerable citizens, fragile pensioners on fixed incomes in need of a financial helping hand from both government and agile younger workers. That was true decades ago, but not anymore.” It asks why are we doing so much to try to help seniors when they’re already the wealthiest generation in history. So many places have a seniors’ discount or a lower admission rate for seniors, but I believe parents of young children need the discount. Or give them a coupon for produce in a grocery store or farmers’ market. BEFORE YOU BLAST ME BECAUSE YOU ARE POOR... I know there are many people who are living below the poverty line, and many seniors who are having a hard time making ends meet. If you are one, instead of blasting me, please allow me, or someone else you trust, to check your money situation. First you need to write down every nickel you spend for three months. Then call someone to look at it.
THE HIGHWAY IS NOT A KILLER It’s that hand-held device the driver is using that’s a killer because of a text and phone addiction and a refusal to pull over or wait till the next stop. It’s distracted driving that leads to accidents. It’s being impaired on booze. It’s being high on drugs. According to an officer on the evening news, speed is the fourth cause of accidents on our highways. If you drive the posted speed limit, which is 90 km/h where it hasn’t been changed to 120, you get run over by almost everybody else. You are a hazard on the highway. If I am not driving fast because I don’t feel like it, and I see vehicles piling up behind me, I pull off to the right and let them pass. MEN BETWEEN 16 AND 20 CAUSE THE MOST ACCIDENTS ICBC’s statistics show 15,000 people per year have been hurt or killed in car crashes in BC since 2009. And that’s before the speed limit was increased. One group causes more of these accidents than any other according to ICBC: men between the ages of 16 and 20 are more likely to cause one of these accidents than any other group. Drivers between ages of 40 and 50 are the least likely. BIG SALMON RUN IS IN ONE MONTH Thanksgiving weekend, Oct. 11, 12 and 13 is the best time to see the sockeye salmon run at the mouth of the Adams River. Roderick-Haig Brown Park will be packed with cars and tour buses so it’s better for locals to go before or after the long weekend. Salmon do not use a calendar to know when to come to the Shuswap. They follow the moon. EXCELLENT WEATHER FOR THE FALL FAIR The Salmon Arm Fair was superb! The weather was great, and on Saturday afternoon the grounds were packed! I always enjoy the commercial exhibits, and the apple pie, ice cream and coffee from the ladies in the arena concession. I bought a $10 membership to the Shuswap Food
Action Co-op. It promotes buying locally-grown food, and plans to develop a food education strategy. www. shuswapfood.ca. I bought a $10 annual membership to the Shuswap Society for Arts & Culture. The beautiful building was designed by a retired architect who is new to Salmon Arm. She listened to everyone’s ideas, then included them in her rendering. www.s-sac.com DEMENTIA SUFFERER TAKES HER OWN LIFE Gillian Bennett, 85, a former psychotherapist in private practise, knew she had early stages of dementia for two years. The last six months it became worse so she chose to take her own life while she still could. She would die on the morning of Aug. 18, at her favourite spot on their Bowen Island property, with her husband of 60 years holding her hand. She had sent a letter-to-the-editor to the Vancouver Sun, about the need for physician-assisted options for the terminally ill and elderly. At her request, it was published on Aug. 18. www.vancouversun.com She called her two children, who are in their 50s, to spend one final weekend together. As she requested, after her death they made public a website she had created: http://Deadatnoon.com that has a four-page letter in which she explained why she chose to commit suicide rather than spending years in hospital at Canada’s expense, costing anywhere from $50,000 to $75,000 per year. At 11:30 a.m. on August 18, 2014 she took a drink of good whiskey and a dose of Nembutal mixed with water. Her husband did not know where she got them. Within a few minutes, she had died. The authorities were called, and the police and coroner arrived. CANADA’S LAW NEEDS TO BE RELAXED An assisted dying law would not result in more people dying, but in fewer people suffering.

Letters to the Editor
Haney event didn’t live up to expectations
I recently attended an event at R.J. Haney that was billed as Burger, Beer and a Bard! Great name! Not such a great event. This is the second time I’ve been “caught out” by purchasing tickets for what looked to be on the surface a great idea and turned out to be “simply a fund-raiser” and not a very high-end one at that. (The other was the first “Death By Chocolate” event – no idea if the second one was better as we decided we would NOT go again after the fiasco of the first one: tickets oversold, no seating, no intimate tables but instead groups or 10 or 12, no live romantic music, at least none by the time we gave up and left). The Burger, Beer and a Bard was a disappointment in several ways. The timing: who wants a burger and a beer at 4:00 in the afternoon on a Sunday? The food: burgers,
cheese, potato salad and beer were donated, which means they weren’t homemade and were NOT “Diners, Drive Ins and Dives” quality but were Save-On-Foods bulk burgers and mediocre. The beer was “different” – Crannog? - a dark beer with a nutty flavor but not everyone’s cup-of-tea to be sure, and there was only the ONE choice of beer. Again this was donated. Kudos to SaveOn-Foods, Gort’s Gouda and to Crannog for their donations in support of R.J. Haney. However, as a consumer, the products fell short of my expectations. Then, the “Bard” section began after some problems with the mics and a last-minute swap in of a violin player for the Red Mollies the backup singers. The musicians didn’t have time to tune their instruments to each other so the violin was a good tone flat and after two songs, I got up and left
as the off-key playing was giving me a headache. I think these ladies have talent, but this venue didn’t showcase it. And although James Murray’s stories were good, this wasn’t his best performance either. It felt like he was “winging it” a lot of the time, which good story tellers are wont to do, but with trying to fit in the music and make the lyrics fit the stories, it just didn’t quite work. It wasn’t the worst thing I’ve ever attended – and it was only $20 – but I had convinced three friends to come and join us, and was a bit embarrassed to have dragged them out on a Sunday to this event when it fell short of the excellence I had billed it as and expected it to be. Were I grading this whole event, I would give the performance a B, the food a C and the beer a C+. Debbie Miyashita, Canoe ERRORS AND OMISSIONS

Is Canada Revenue out to get you?
www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
Watch out! It’s the time of year when the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) sends out their post assessment review letters for individuals who filed their tax returns electronically. If you receive one of these letters, you’re probably thinking, “I’m being audited. I’m in trouble!” However, there is no need to worry unless of course you actually have done something wrong. When your return is filed electronically, no original receipts are sent into CRA. So, the electronic tax filing system is essentially an honour system. Unfortunately, with any honour system, there will be those who are claiming deductions or credits that they aren’t entitled to; whether purposely or accidentally. Therefore, CRA conducts random checks to keep everyone honest. Don’t worry, it isn’t personal if you get chosen. In most cases, a computer simply spits the letter out if you’ve claimed a large deduction or credit. The typical items checked are medical, donations, and moving expenses, but CRA can ask for verification of anything. The most common item CRA likes to review is medical expenses. This makes sense, as more and more people are claiming large amounts of medical expenses on their tax returns and also because it can be complicated as to how and what you are allowed to claim. In particular, travel expenses incurred for medical purposes are often misunderstood, so CRA likes
to verify these amounts; and therefore, you need to track these carefully. Some people write all the details onto a calendar. Others keep a detailed diary of their medical travel. Whatever method you choose, it’s important to keep track of dates, where you went, who you saw and why. Also, CRA will likely require a letter from your doctor confirming that the medical services/treatment you received out of town were necessary and couldn’t be received any closer to home. The most important thing to remember is to be sure you keep your original receipts. The rule of thumb is to keep all of your receipts etc. for at least seven years. Don’t assume that just because CRA didn’t ask for verification of an item in a given year that they won’t a few years down the road. Also, be sure to take a photocopy of what you send. You don’t want to be in a position where you’ve sent your only copy to CRA and they’ve then misplaced or “never received” the information. If you are organized and have all your information, then you have nothing to worry about. If you don’t, they won’t take you away in handcuffs, but they will disallow the amount claimed and then charge you interest and penalties. If you are like me, I’d rather be organized and keep the money in my pockets instead of giving it to our friends in Ottawa. So don’t panic when you get a letter from CRA; unless of course

Fall Fair celebrates community The centre of business activity shifted slightly from the stores to the outdoors last weekend as 117th annual Salmon Arm Fall Fair drew in a crowd of 8,900 over the three days. “Attendance was up for the third year in a row; it was up by about 500,” says fair administrator Kelly Weightman. “And that’s just paid attendance through the gate, it doesn’t include the exhibitors and all the volunteers.” This year the new dog agility show was well received and Kelly hopes to have them back next year. There were more entries in the clothing and textile divisions as well as goat and sheep entries. The beef and dairy cow divisions saw record numbers entries and the “cow barn was full.” The midway also did well this year as they sold a record number of passes. With the close proximity in time and location, Kelly says it’s natural to compare our fair to Armstrong’s IPE. “The big difference is that we don’t tap into the tourist base. The IPE has a rodeo and we don’t. We’re community-based and we’re growing our ties to our community. We’re a good old-fashioned community fair.” In keeping with that spirit, Kelly says next year’s projects will be focused on making the fair even more entertaining and involve more non-profit groups and businesses. “We’re going to bring in more entertainment. I’d love to work with the golf courses and have a virtual golf tournament. I’d like to have a little britches rodeo for kids under five trying to catch a pig, and a pie eating contest. It’s going to be even more nostalgic and ‘say hi to your neighbour’ kind of fair.”
Last year for Cowgirls’ Cafe For the past seven years Deanne Manz (above, left) and Nellie Rasmussen (right) have run the popular Cowgirls’ Cafe in the Salmon Arm fair at the old arena entrance. With their beef on a bun, chile, taco salad, subs, homemade baking, breakfast sandwiches and root beer floats, Deanne and Nellie established a loyal clientele. This was their last year running the popular food booth. “We see the same people every year and we’re going to miss them,” says Deanne. Nellie echoes the sentiment: “Yes, we will miss the people – thanks for everything.”
BC 4-H celebrates 100 years BC 4-H clubs are celebrating their centenary this year. There are ten clubs in the area: Salmon Arm, Deep Creek, Sicamous, Grindrod, Silver Creek and Gleneden. Every year all these clubs volunteer at their popular hamburger and hot dog booth at the fall fair. Bill Kennedy (pictured top, centre) was busy flipping burgers on Sunday. His son is in Shuswap Dairy 4-H but he is also a 4-H alumnus. In the late 1970s he was in the Salmon Arm Holstein 4-H Club. This is the 23rd year Margaret Cloutier has supervised the food booth. “We have an amazing set up and it runs like clockwork now. We have over 140 people volunteering,” she says. Joan O’Brien, Secretary to the 4-H Council, has notes from the 4-H booth’s activities going back over two decades. “In 1991 we sold 18 dozen hot dogs. We sold 96 dozen this year,” she says looking at her notes. This food booth is a good fundraiser for 4-H and the money goes right back to helping the children and youth in the program. It goes for scholarships, their public speaking programs, and agricultural trips.
Visiting vendors The Salmon Arm Fall Fair brings in popular out-oftown venders that people look forward to every year. What would the fair be without the lemonade stand or the mini-donuts, or the fudge man from Vancouver?

Surplus won’t sweeten teacher offer By Tom Fletcher, Black Press VICTORIA – The B.C. government has increased its projected surplus for the year to $266 million, up $87 million from the July budget estimate. Finance Minister Mike de Jong said taxation and natural resource revenue are running ahead of projections, based on results of the first quarter of the fiscal year. That was offset by unexpected costs for flood control this spring and a forest fire season expected to be one of the costliest on record at $350 million. The budget surplus is enough to provide a a pay increase and other improvements to striking teachers, but what the union is currently asking for amounts to $315 more than the government is offering, this year and every subsequent year, the finance ministry calculates. De Jong said giving in to the B.C. Teachers’
Federation demands, including their proposal for class size and special needs support, would equate to an increase of $140 a year for the average personal income tax, or 4.8 cents per litre in gasoline tax. Increasing the government’s offer or gambling on the results of binding arbitration would have a ripple effect on other public service unions, both those who settled for less and those who still have to reach agreements under the government’s bargaining mandate, he said. NDP critic Carole James said arbitration in the teacher case isn’t “opening the flood gates. “In fact binding arbitration when the parties are close, will take a look at the pattern of settlements, will take a look at the money that’s on the table, will take a look at the two parties, and resolve this,” James said.

Letters to the Editor
Sign a petition in favour of arbitration
As one who has had experience with contract negotiations, I’ve learned that the ones who favour arbitration are the ones who are confident they have a good case. Those not in favour of arbitration are afraid they won’t get the deal they want. So it is obvious that the reason the government has said “no” to binding arbitration is because they don’t feel confident that the arguments they offer on a settlement are going to be good enough in convincing a third party. Both sides have a gamble in this approach to settlement. Whether they think they have a good case of not, either side still has a chance at “winning” or “losing” in their own eyes in the end. Arbitration is the only way of breaking this deadlock which could otherwise last indefinitely. The children
of BC deserve better from their government. As a retired teacher I obviously believe that the teachers are the ones who really care about the children. I am also one of those who regularly signs petitions. And regularly, I find that petitions actually do have an impact. Janet Pattinson, Salmon Arm Janet is referring to the following petition at change.org: We the people of British Columbia urge and expect that you solve the present crisis and let our schools open by agreeing to arbitration. At press time, it had reached over 24,000 signatures. If you would like to add your name, go to www.change.org and search for ‘We the people of British Columbia,’ and click on the first search result.
Liberals damaging fabric of our society Open letter to Premier Clark, and Ministers Fassbender and de Jong I’m sorry, but your “reasons” for not settling the dispute over public education in BC are simply not credible. You claim the BCTF is asking for unreasonable settlements, but in reality they are only asking for some of what has been taken out of the education budget since 2002. You claim BC cannot afford to settle this dispute. The reality is the economy is growing, there is a budget surplus, and you have money in the bank. OUR money, in fact! You say that taxpayers don’t want a tax increase. That is mostly true; however, taxpayers are more concerned with their tax dollars being wasted than paying for things that really matter, like education and health care. A $600-million-dollar roof for a stadium that only benefits private business interests is a waste of tax dollars. Did you notice it’s leaking again?

Residential Shouldering Program In an effort to create optimal drainage conditions and mitigate the unnecessary damage to the residential road network, the District of Sicamous Public Works Department will be implementing a residential shouldering program along the edges of the District roadways. The buildup of grasses and soils along the edge of residential roadways will be shaved to a level that promotes effective positive drainage. Please note that excess materials will be removed by District staff and that re-seeding of these areas will occur as needed upon completion of the shouldering process.
Cutting corporate taxes to nearly the lowest level in North America, with the excuse that businesses will use the savings to reinvest in the economy, is also a waste. Canada Revenue Agency and the IRS show that most of that money, amounting to $trillions across North America, is being held in offshore tax havens, NOT being reinvested in the economy! You are literally selling the future of our kids, our economy, and our society to benefit a few large corporate friends. There is nothing wrong with corporations making a profit, but NOT at the expense of taxpayers! Your claims are demonstrably false. Court rulings have proven that you have no intention of bargaining in good faith. You will find yourselves on the wrong side of history! Your legacy will be to irreversibly damage the fabric of our society. Is that really what you want to be remembered for? Jeff Nelson, Salmon Arm

Workshop looks at arts integration in the classroom
Are you a professional artist interested in working with young people and educators in schools? Or do you have experience and want to enhance your skills? ArtStarts in Schools presents the Arts Integration Learning Lab, a subsidized five-day learning experience for professional artists designed to position them to work with schools in their region. Professional artists from all disciplines—visual arts, theatre, music, dance, storytelling, interdisciplinary and more—are invited to apply. Up to 15 professional artists from across the BC Interior will be selected through an application process to participate in the Arts Integration Learning Lab in Kamloops from November 3–7. Led by a series of facilitators and specials guests, participants will unpack the definition of arts integration and explore practical ways to effectively work with young people and
educators to lead arts infused classroom experiences. Artists selected to participate in the Arts Integration Learning Lab will: • Develop a deeper understanding of arts integration and identify opportunities to grow their own professional practice; build facilitation skills to effectively work with young people and educators; • Develop abilities to plan and lead quality arts infused interactions; learn about resources and opportunities for artists available through ArtStarts; explore the culture of schools and connect with curriculum; establish opportunities for artists to connect with educators in a professional capacity; and connect with other artists in BC’s Interior and engage in peer learning and reflection. Artists selected to participate will be fully subsidized to attend five days of workshops and interactions; receive pro-
gram materials; as well as breakfast and lunch each day. In addition, participants living outside Kamloops are eligible for subsidized travel and/or accommodation expenses. The Arts Integration Learning Lab is an initiative of Infusion Studio, presented by ArtStarts in Schools, a not-for-profit organization that provides innovative arts programs for young people, practical resources for teachers and artists, and leadership in advocacy for arts in education. This opportunity is made possible through support from BC Arts Council and the Province of BC. The deadline to apply is September 17, 2014. Applicants must be residents of the Interior.

Scenes from the 117th annual Salmon Arm Fall Fair
A14 Friday, September 12, 2014 Lakeshore News
Do you know the health benefits of Hazelwood? Barbara Campbell from Hamilton, ON is a mother of 7 months old twins who had a rough time when their first teeth came out. “I was very skeptical at first, but with two babies in teething pain I felt like I’ve tried everything else and had nothing to lose. After just a few days, the drooling was less intense and we could finally get some peaceful sleep! Since then, my husband wears the necklace at all times and he says it works miracles for his heartburn.” The story is one that has its roots back in the very, very early days. The First Nations used small hazel twigs to relieve various ailments such as intestinal disorders. They even crafted necklaces to ease their babies’ teething pain. Pure Hazelwood™ has proudly brought this tradition back to life by developing the first line of hazel wood commercial products for the whole family. The Canadian company is now the world leader in that market. The Pure Hazelwood™ products are sold in more than 2000 outlets across Canada, the United States and Europe. They come in varieties of trendy necklaces and bracelets to please everyone’s tastes. A moisturizing lotion and a zinc ointment, both enriched with hazel wood extract, are also available.
Our Research
Pioneering the scientific research, Pure Hazelwood™ can now demonstrate that hazel wood extracts used are very rich in polyphenols and have antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects.
Health benefits of Hazelwood for the whole family
For more than 15 years, Pure Hazelwood™ has enjoyed growing success borne of the enthusiasm of its clients, many of which have offered testimonials for the relief of various problems such as: • Joint pain • Skin problems • Mouth ulcers • Digestive problems • Teething

Enthusiastic birders are coming!
They’re coming! Birders and nature enthusiasts from around the province will be gathering at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort in Salmon Arm, September 25-28, for the Fall General Meeting and Conference of BC Nature. The local Shuswap Naturalist Club is sponsoring the event that attracts members from many of the BC Nature affiliated clubs throughout the province.
The theme of this year’s FGM is Salmon & Shorebirds – Incredible Journeys, and plenty of both can be seen in the Shuswap. While the big attraction to this area will be the Adams River salmon run–a migration that is expected to be in the millions in this dominant year– other nearby venues will be popular with conference attendees too. Field trips will include visits to Kingfisher Interpretive Centre and Salmon River rehabilitation projects. The Salmon Arm foreshore trail, the Fly Hills, and
Eagle River Nature Park will be great places to watch for the diverse bird species that move through this region during fall migration, as well as other wildlife and plants found here. Early morning birding walks, with hopes of sighting a surprise species, are always a feature of these conferences. But it won’t be only outdoor activities that will catch the interest of around 100 members expected to attend the conference. The Shuswap Naturalist Club is drawing upon some exceptional local speakers to share their expertise for several presentations. Topics will range from an examination of the educational potential for local students in the Shuswap watershed and the Salmon Arm foreshore to a study of the Yellow Sea off South Korea. Keynote speaker and local educator, Geoff Styles, will share his experience monitoring shorebirds of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway – another scene for incredible journeys in nature on the other side of the Pacific. Conference goers will also enjoy excellent photographic displays, a silent auction, and a general meeting to discuss BC Nature programs and policies. The event will wind up with a banquet on Saturday evening – and, oh yes, one more scheduled farewell field trip on Sunday to see those amazing Adams River sockeye.

Greater Vernon Water offers open house sessions This November 15th, the Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) will be asking Greater Vernon Water (GVW) service area electors whether they are in favour of borrowing $70 million to complete six priority projects outlined in the Master Water Plan (MWP). These priority projects have been selected and reviewed by a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) comprised of engineers, water technologists and Chief Administrative Officers from the RDNO, City of Vernon and District of Coldstream, representatives from the agricultural community, Interior Health, and a Council representative from the District of Coldstream. These projects have been deemed necessary to meet the requirements of the BC Drinking Water Protection Act and provide water security for Greater Vernon Water customers well into the future.
To provide information on the Borrowing Referendum and the MWP priority projects, four open house sessions will be offered beginning in September. Please join RDNO staff at one of the following sessions: • Tues. Sept. 16: 5:00–7:00 p.m. at Schubert Centre, Vernon. • Mon. Sept. 29: 5:00–7:00 p.m. at Women’s Institute Hall, Coldstream. • Tues.

Early on the morning of Friday, May 2, the Cooke Creek bridge, on Mabel Lake Road, was taken out when tonnes of logs and debris came roaring down Cooke Creek, along with the weight of 9 million gallons of water, causing mass destruction. Directly in its path lay the Kingfisher Interpretive Centre (KICS) – a Centre that is an integral part of our community, as well as a popular place for tourists. This centre is often used as an educational facility by groups of school children and other groups interested in the ecosystem of the Shuswap valley. Thousands of visitors engage in outdoor discovery on this 10 acre “living” classroom ever year. The Kingfisher Interpretive Centre assists over 100 thousand salmon from egg to fry, and releases them to their natural life cycle in the wild of the Shuswap River well and strong. Community volunteers do most of the work harvesting salmon eggs and maintaining the hatchery, but the Centre also creates employment for several community members. In the wake of the May 2nd flood, the Kingfisher Interpretive Centre is desperately in need of repairs. The flood damaged the water lines and the protective berm, it scoured out the trails, and destroyed 90% of the hatchery contents. In order for the Kingfisher Interpretive Centre to be restored as a place for visitors to gather, learn, and enjoy the outdoors, the following must be done: 1) The trails must be restored, 2) the berm needs to be re-established, 3) water

lines need to be repaired, and 4) the contents of the hatchery lab equipment must be replaced. This equipment includes: a television, office supplies, desk, educational materials, and a watershed model. The internationally recognized, award winning, community run, Kingfisher Interpretive Centre asks for your help to make the Centre a vibrant place once again. With this in mind, you are cordially invited to a special Salmon Sensation Dinner Fundraiser to support the restoration of the Kingfisher Interpretive Centre. The event takes place Saturday, September 27th at the Riverside Community Hall, 3784 Trinity Valley Road, Enderby. Doors open at 5:00 p.m. with a cash bar, and a delicious salmon dinner will be served at 6:00 p.m., with a live auction and entertainment to follow. Tickets are $50 (includes $25 tax receipt) and are available at Ashton Creek Store, Tony O’s Outfitter (Enderby) and Bean Scene Coffee House (Vernon). Or, you can buy tickets online at www.kingfishercentre.com/programsandevents2.html If you are unable to attend the dinner, donations can be made to www.kingfishercentre.com via Paypal, or else mail a cheque (payable to Kingfisher Interpretive Centre Society) to 2550 Mabel Lk Rd., Enderby, BC V0E 1V5.

VANCOUVER, Sept. 3, 2014 / CNW/ - As they dip their rear wheels in the Pacific Ocean in White Rock, BC on Thursday, September 4, 18 cyclists embarked on a journey across Canada to raise funds and awareness for children living with and beyond cancer. The Sears National Kids Cancer Ride (SNKCR) is the world’s longest charitable cycling event on behalf of childhood cancer. When the cyclists arrive in Halifax on Saturday, September 20 for the ceremonial front wheel dip in the Atlantic, they will have covered over 7,000 km. Relay cyclists will also join the national riders as they cycle relay style across Canada, stopping in communities across the country, all united in the goal to improve the quality of life for children affected by cancer. “The Sears National Kids Cancer Ride supports a fundraising initiative that holds great meaning for our customers and associates across Canada,” said Doug Campbell, President and Chief Executive Officer, Sears Canada. “Over the past 60 years Sears has been committed to serving Canadian families, and no family should have to hear the words ‘your child has cancer.’ Whether you ride, volunteer or donate, you are playing an active role in a greater effort to increase the survival rate of children with cancer in the future.” The Sears National Kids Cancer Ride funds programs that improve the lives of children living with cancer as well as those
recovering from the physical and emotional scars that can be part of survivorship. With a 100% donation model, over $7 million has been raised and donated since 2008, and money raised this year will again be used to fund both national and provincial pediatric hematology and oncology research programs. “Money raised is critical in helping fund programs that can improve the survival rates and the quality of life for children fighting this horrible disease,” said Jeff Rushton, Co-Founder and passionate volunteer of Coast to Coast Against Cancer Foundation (CTCACF), a volunteer-based registered Canadian charitable foundation focused on improving health outcomes and quality of life of children and families impacted by cancer. “With each kilometer pedaled, collectively we will enrich the quality of life of Canadian children burdened by this devastating disease.” Each year, about 1,400 children are diagnosed with cancer and it is the leading cause of disease-related death in children in Canada. Childhood cancers are very different from adult cancers and rarely benefit from general cancer research. The detection and treatment of childhood cancer places unique demands on our healthcare system. For more information, to register as a rider or a volunteer, or to make a donation, visit www. SearsNationalKidsCancerRide. com or call 1-866-381-4446. Howard Vangool photo.

September 10, 2014 – Vancouver, BC – Did you ever think it would take a miracle for you to complete a marathon? Starting Tuesday, September 16, BC Children’s Hospital and Children’s Miracle Network are making it easy for people of all ages and fitness levels to complete a marathon over 27 days, while helping BC’s sick and injured children. Individuals and groups can register now for the Miracle Marathon at MiracleMarathon.ca to improve their health while supporting BC Children’s Hospital. Miracle Marathon is a 27.2-day virtual fundraising program created by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals®. Participants are encouraged to move the equivalent of one mile (1.6 kilometres) per day – through any activity they choose – from September 16 to October 12. The first 26 days are completed at a time and place convenient for each participant. On the final day, participants across North America are encouraged to begin the final 1.9
kilometres at the same time and finish the 27.2-mile (43.8-kilometre) Miracle Marathon together. It’s a marathon, plus an extra mile for the kids. Participants receive daily challenges, inspirational stories and motivational messages throughout the event to encourage them to meet their fitness and fundraising goals. A personal donation page and blog for each Miracle Marathoner will also be set up to track progress and share stories. Individuals are challenged to not only move one mile per day, but to also raise $10 per day for BC Children’s Hospital. Fundraising incentives are available to participants for achieving certain milestones. For more information on Miracle Marathon or to register, visit MiracleMarathon.ca. Follow the #MiracleMarathon hashtag to get involved with the Miracle Marathon community, and learn more about Children’s Miracle Network at ChildrensMiracleNetwork.ca.

I have been working in interior design for a long time. I know a lot about this stuff. Sometimes I get asked for advice, and I give that advice based on my knowledge and experience. Sometimes my clients take my advice and sometimes they don’t. Here are three of the most common of these conversations. I received an email from a gal who wanted to put a blue roof on her orange brick house. She had navy blue shutters and didn’t want a neutral roof because it would be “boring.” With a rather lengthy reply, I hoped I helped her see that a blue roof might not be the best option. Her answer did not bolster my confidence in my persuasive powers; the last I heard she was thinking about a variegated roof that would be “interesting.” A front door should be interesting. A roof not so much. I was asked by Mrs. Homeowner to help her hang some photographs. Mr. Homeowner, who was 6’4,” was home unexpectedly and insisted that the pictures be hung very high on the wall– with some of the frame tops within a few inches of the ceiling. I suggested that the standard for picture hanging places the centre of a picture at 57 to 59 inches from the floor. He adamantly informed me that I was wrong and pictures should be hung much higher. His 5’4” wife hated the pictures up that high. She also hated the fact that he insisted on hanging the pictures where the studs were in the wall, ignoring the grouping plan. And he dismissed my explanation that new picture hanging tools make it possible to hang pictures wherever you want on the wall and don’t require stud finders, studs or wall anchors. My drapery client and I were talking about her new kitchen plans. She was really excited about renovating, and while she wanted to get the project under way and completed quickly, she was taking her time. She said it was the last reno she would do and wanted to make sure it was just perfect. The big stumbling block? The dreaded backsplash. I showed her some current kitchen magazines and two kitchen remodelling brochures from a large reno company. After a scant 10 minutes she looked at me and said, “I get it, finally. These kitchens do not have stacked glass or contrasting tile backsplashes.” These busy backsplashes do not exist in the current design world. They are a trend that is on the way out. Just because they are on the shelf does not mean you have to buy them. I’m always happy to answer your design dilemma letters. Visit Designsewlutions.ca for my contact info.

No cape? No problem! Local heroes fight Parkinson’s disease
Salmon Arm, BC – Family, friends, neighbours and the local hockey team are teaming up to fight Parkinson’s. Their special power - hope! Join our community heroes at Parkinson SuperWalk on Saturday, September 13, 2014, at 10:00am at McGuire Lake Park. Participants can register by visiting www.parkinson.bc.ca. SuperWalk is the largest national fundraising event for Parkinson’s disease and this September, 110 communities across Canada and 21 communities throughout BC will join the fight to find a cure. In BC, our goal is to raise $425,000 and nationwide, the aim is to raise $3 million. At the heart of SuperWalk’s success in Salmon Arm is the generous spirit of local community members. Doreen Wilson, diagnosed with Parkinson’s eight years ago at age 72, has been the Walk organizer for the past five years. “We have such wonderful support here in Salmon Arm,” says Doreen. “One great example is the Sicamous Junior Eagles Hockey Team. They’ve been coming for a few years now. They help set up the event and push the patients in wheelchairs from the Bastion Place care facility. The boys make sure that everyone is able to participate. We all feel so good and hopeful at SuperWalk!” Proceeds from SuperWalk go to Parkinson’s research, education and support services provided by Parkinson Society British Columbia (PSBC). Parkinson’s Disease Parkinson’s is the second most common degenerative neurological disorder after Alzheimer’s. It is estimated that 11,000 British Columbians and more than 100,000 Canadians live with the disease. It is cruel and unforgiving causing tremors, rigidity, postural instability, difficulty talking, walking and swallowing, reduced facial expression, and in some cases, depression and dementia. The debilitating effects of Parkinson’s are felt not only by the person with the disease, but their entire family. It knows no bounds and can strike anyone – women and men of all ages, ethnic backgrounds and lifestyles. There is currently no known cure. Parkinson Society British Columbia Established in 1969, Parkinson Society British Columbia is a not-for-profit charitable organization that exists to address the personal and social consequences of Parkinson's disease through education, community outreach, scientific research, connect with us at www.AshleyFurnitureHomeStore.com advocacy and public awareness. www.parkinson.bc.ca Media Sponsor

Letters to the Editor
The Fungi Festival has been held since 2005 in beautiful Sicamous. Participants have the opportunity to identify and pick wild mushrooms, watch evening presentations, and attend workshops. The 2014 festival will guide people to identify and actually pick wild mushrooms, and have a gourmet experience. There are interesting guided walking tours available, as well as many different forms of entertainment to keep everyone having fun. Everything from presentations, workshops, vendors & exhibitors, informative slide shows, a great meal and a live stage including beer gardens! Guides this year include Paul Kroeger, Larry Evans, Daniel Winkler, Tyson Elhers, and Douglas Airey. Paul Kroeger is the Guide’s Guide, and is called on by the RCMP for his expertise identifying psychedelic fungi. Paul has discovered new mushrooms and has had them accepted by the world
bodies, a process which takes as long as ten years. Just a short walk from his home, Paul was the first to identify the world’s deadliest mushroom growing in Vancouver, the European death cap. Paul teaches at universities but has never attended as a student. He is the main author of The Outer Spores – Mushrooms of Haida Gwaii. Larry Evans is the star of Ron Mann’s documentary film ‘Know Your Mushrooms.’ He’s been called the Indiana Jones of Mushrooms and is a man so at home in the
Meditations Read: Zech. 13, John 1:9-16
Wounded in the House of Friends But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities - Isaiah 53:5 Often when we face adversity, we feel that God has let us down. We might struggle to accept what has happened, and we may even lash out at God. Maybe we have some terminal illness, or some seemingly hopeless financial failure, or maybe He has allowed us to be in prison for a time, or even in bondage to depression or an emotional struggle. We may be asking, "God, where are you?" Verse 6 of today’s Bible reading can be understood as a glimpse into the mind of Christ concerning His suffering. When He was asked, "What are these wounds in thine hands?" He answered that He had received them in the house of His friends. The pain of one deep "wound" is expressed in Jesus’ cry, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matthew 27:46). Where would you rather be wounded - in the house of friends or of enemies? Our friends will always wound us for our own good. When God allows us to be wounded, He always has our spiritual good in view. It often amazes me how God uses wounding to realign our priorities. In verse 9 of this prophecy God explained the reason for the wounding. He brings us through the fire to refine us as gold and silver is refined. The result? "They shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God." Do not be afraid of being wounded in the house of friends. You are in good hands! Thank God for the times He has reminded you of what it would be like to be forsaken for this very reason. That is when we learn to cling to Him with all our strength. James Baer - Salmon Arm, BC
Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil. - Psalm 141:5

woods that he doesn’t mind being called feral. He is even comfortable with witch doctors, missing the 2012 Fungi Festival to film with the BBC and PBS Networks in Ecuador. Larry has been leading expeditions since 1980 and has co-authored A Field Guide to Tropical Amazon Mushrooms. Daniel Winkler is the author of A Field Guide to Edible Mushrooms of the Pacific Northwest, as well as A Field Guide to Edible Mushrooms of California. Daniel also runs MushRoaming, mushroom eco-tours, and has ventured many places worldwide, including the Amazon, Columbia, and Tibet. Tyson Elhers is a biologist from the Slocan Valley who specializes in forest mushrooms. He studies the ecology of wild edible mushrooms harvested from the forests of British Columbia and has intimate knowledge of species found in the Kootenays. He shares this knowledge with eager mycophiles through his reasearch and workshops. Douglas Airey lives in the Malakwa, he knows the area, he knows the woods, and he knows the mushrooms! Douglas was a Friend of the Festival last year, helping eager hunters to find mushrooms during a year that they were particularly elusive. This year festival organizers are happy to have him as an Official Guide. The Weekend Fungi Festival happens Friday, Sept. 19 through Sunday, Sept. 21, mainly at the Red Barn in Sicamous. Find all the details and schedules online at www.fungifestival.com.

Dona Merle McBain (nee Taylor) January 10, 1924 - August 28, 2014 It is with great sadness that the family of Dona McBain announces her peaceful passing in Salmon Arm, British Columbia on August 28, 2014 at the age of 90 years. Dona was born in Virden, Manitoba on January 10, 1924 to Harold and Dorothy Taylor. Her childhood was spent in Virden and she married Robert McBain, the “boy next door” when he returned from the Navy after WWII. Dona was active in the Association for the Mentally Handicapped, the United Church, ambulance volunteer and curling club. She loved playing Bridge and continued this until last year. After moving to Scotch Creek, she was involved in the Naturalist Club, fire hall, and x/c skiing. But her real passion was square dancing and she sewed many beautiful and unique matching outfits. After Bob’s untimely passing in 1985, she was fortunate in meeting another square dance partner, Fred Luddington, and they eventually became life partners living in Armstrong and Enderby until Fred died in 2008. Dona moved to Piccadilly Terrace in Salmon Arm and lived actively until her health declined; she then moved to Piccadilly Care Centre and spent August quietly.
Linda Becker
She was predeceased by her sister Marjorie (Charles) McLean and brothers Ross and Bruce Taylor.
November 30, 1949 – September 07, 2014
Left to mourn are her four children, Del (Ed) Fearns, Jim (Audrey) McBain, Laurie (Don) Wardley and Margie McBain, 6 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren as well as diverse extended family.
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Linda Becker on the morning of September 07, 2014, after her courageous fight with cancer. Linda was an avid participating member of the Blind Bay Painters and has been a proud member of her community. Linda was a unique, beautiful soul who always had her wits about her and an infectious laugh. Her memory lives on in the hearts of her loving and dedicated husband, Larry; her daughters, Jody and Kim; and 4 awesome grandkids; extended family and a wealth of friends. She fought a great fight and now we lay her to rest.
Heartfelt thanks are given to the staff at both Piccadilly residences as they treated Mom with kindness, dignity and respect. The staff and Dr. J.

David Belway (Dave) On Monday, September 1, 2014, Dave passed away after a long, brave, courageous battle with cancer. He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Linda Belway; his brother Fred Belway (Mildred); his four children, Karen (Grant), Barb, Debbie (Kevin) & David Jr. (Crystal); eight grandchildren, Ryan, Chelsey, Eve, Tate, Maya, Callie, Justin and Kayla; his great-grandson Tristan, and many nieces and nephews. Dave was many things to many people. The middle child of five sons, Dave grew up fast with an unconventional childhood full of mischief and a strong bond between brothers. He was a loyal husband with an incredible work ethic, always providing for his family. To his children he was a pillar; the person who, “no matter what”, you would call if you locked your keys in your car, ran out of gas, started a project or renovation, or just needed any kind of sound advice regarding life, finances, or major decision-making. He was always the voice of reason in any conversation. He was a good friend to many. He was a great organizer spending countless hours on various community committees, planning family get-togethers, camping adventures, and arranging fishing trips with the boys. Dave brought people together and got things done. He taught his girls how to shoot guns and his son how to “curl like a Belway”. Dave wore many hats in his time; mechanic, auto body repairman, business owner, salesman, real estate agent and property developer. He was an avid sportsman and excelled in baseball, curling, golf and sports fishing. The outdoors was his refuge, whether it be early morning coffee on the deck with his wife Linda, lining up on the first tee, reeling in the “big one”, or simply watching the sunrise on a remote fishing lake. Dave lived for those quiet moments, and sought them out whenever he could. He was always eager to share those times with the people he loved, and if you woke up early enough to join him you would see a side of Dave that was truly at peace. He was creative and tied professional quality flies for fishing. He had a green thumb and grew beefsteak tomatoes that rivalled any in town, and his homemade horseradish knocked your socks off (ask the grandkids!). It may surprise some, but Dave took great pleasure in maintaining his own backyard bird sanctuary. He could name off all the migrating species and point out his “regulars” whom he had given names. Dave was a fierce competitor, always ready for adventure and a challenge. As many of his friends can attest, a small fortune has been won and lost on the course / ice, or after at the card table...this also includes Monopoly with the grandkids! Perhaps what people will remember most about Dave, however, is his sense of humour; quick, sharp, and slightly twisted, no one was safe from it, we were all touched by it, and we all loved him for it. Dave will be greatly missed. “Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It’s perfect when it arrives and puts itself in our hands. It hopes we’ve learned something from yesterday.” Please join us for a celebration of life honouring Dave at the Salmon Arm Curling Club (691-28 St. NE, Salmon Arm, BC) on Saturday, September 13, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made towards the Salmon Arm Junior Curling Program in Dave’s name.

We all feel so good and hopeful at SuperWalk!” Proceeds from SuperWalk go to Parkinson’s research, education and support services provided by Parkinson Society British Columbia (PSBC).

Mom & Dad!
Parkinson’s Disease Parkinson’s is the second most common degenerative neurological disorder after Alzheimer’s. It is estimated that 11,000 British Columbians and more than 100,000 Canadians live with the disease. It is cruel and unforgiving causing tremors, rigidity, postural instability, difficulty talking, walking and swallowing, reduced facial expression, and in some cases, depression and dementia. The debilitating effects of Parkinson’s are felt not only by the person with the disease, but their entire family. It knows no bounds and can strike anyone – women and men of all ages, ethnic backgrounds and lifestyles. There is currently no known cure. Parkinson Society British Columbia Established in 1969, Parkinson Society British Columbia is a not-for-profit charitable organization that exists to address the personal and social consequences of Parkinson's disease through education, community outreach, scientific research, advocacy and public awareness. www.parkinson.bc.ca Media Sponsor Reference or to arrange an interview with Doreen Wilson: Laura Darch, Marketing & Communications Manager T: 604.662.3240 • C: 604.771.4721• E: ldarch@parkinson.bc.ca

Grease, smelly dogs, floor stains, and eggplants
Hi Reena, Do you have a solution on how to remove grease that seems to be baked onto the bottom of my old cast iron frying pan? I have tried some commercial cleaners, but they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work. Maybe you have a remedy that will work; I hope so. You have such interesting hints in your articlesâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;I try not to miss any of them, but I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to find anything pertaining to this problem. Thank you so much, Carol Dear Carol, Begin by washing the pan with dish soap and water; next, take a little vegetable oil on a paper towel and wipe around the inside and outside. Put the pan in the oven on about 225 for a few hours. Enjoy your pans and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worryâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;even though they may not look clean, they are clean. If you are not happy with the appearance, consider trying oven cleaner on your pans (make sure to use in a ventilated area). Dear Reena, This summer our dog has been very smelly. He is a beautiful long-haired golden retriever, 2.5 years old. He really enjoys the outdoors, walking, swimming, running, fetching. He is very friendly and into everything. We have bathed him numerous times throughout the summer, using dog shampoos, but still he smells. Is there a product or
solution you would recommend, to eliminate this awful odour? We use the following shampoo brands: WAHL and Hartz. Sincerely, Ryan Dear Ryan, It is obvious by your attention to detail that you are doing your very best to care for your dog. It is important to note that like humans; body smell can permeate from our insides, not necessarily from the outside. People who eat lots of garlic, for example, eventually begin to smell like garlic. Since shampoos arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remedying the smell you may need to consider the next step. With that said, it sounds as though your golden retriever needs a trip to the vet to investigate what is going on inside his body and to determine the cause of the odor. His odour may be linked to his diet or a medical condition and would be worth checking out. Hi Reena, I need your help. I have yellow spots on my linoleum in our bathroom. This is caused from using Lemon Scented Mr. Clean. I have tried everything to remove the stains but nothing works. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford new lino. Please tell me how to remove these stains. Thank you, Jackie Dear Jackie, Unfortunately the yellow stains may be permanent. With so many vinyl and lino-
leum products on the market, it seems Solutions&Substitutions that what works on one does not necessarily work on another. If your floor is over 50 years old it is most likely linoen eggs and then coat them with breadleum; in this case the linseed that makes up crumbs. Fry the pieces in vegetable oil until linoleum has discoloured. In order to bring golden brown on both sides. Dab off the back the colour the floor would need to be excess oil. Lay the slices in a pan and cover stripped and refinished. Doing this may or with spaghetti sauce and mozzarella cheese. may not remove yellowing. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 mins. Or perhaps the floor is actually vinyl. Another option is to put the fried eggplant Many people have found pouring 3% hydroinside sandwiches or add pieces to soups or gen peroxide onto the floor every day for stews. three days is helpful. Other people have had Fabulous Tips to Clean and Organize: great success by combining one quarter cup â&#x20AC;˘ For those people who are a bit older like OxyClean with 1 gallon boiling water and me and unable to get on our hands and knees pouring the solution onto the area. Another to scrub the bathtub floor, I have found that solution is bleach but most experience that the newer brooms work well. First, I fill the this application removes the floors finish tub half full with dish soap and water and and shine. Lastly, the application of mineral then scrubâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;it does a wonderful job and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spirits is another treatment that people have so easy. Submitted by Lana told me worked for them (test everything on â&#x20AC;˘ I like to store kitchen reference charts an inconspicuous area first). and favourite recipes inside clear plastic Dear Reena, sleeves and hang them on the inside of cupMy neighbour brought me eggplants from board doors for easy access. They can easily her garden. How do I prepare them? Should be wiped clean and frequently referenced I cook them? Colton info is right at my fingertips. Submitted by Dear Colton, Helena Yes, you definitely need to cook them. Reena Nerbas enjoys your questions Here is one idea for preparing eggplant: Peel and tips â&#x20AC;&#x201C; keep them coming!
