Break Out the Duct Tape

CROSSWORD

HOROSCOPES

Stick it to warts with this unusual remedy. Some research found that applying the tape over problem areas for about a week helped clear up warts as well as conventional treatment. Duct tape may work by irritating the skin, triggering an immune reaction that fights the infection typically responsible for warts.

“Pawsitive” reinforcement and nail clipping

By Emily Corrie Part one: Clipping your dog’s nails can seem like an insurmountable task if he is frightened by the process and reacts aggressively towards the clippers (and to the hand holding them)! But clipping his nails doesn’t have to end in a fight. By using positive reinforcement and gradually shaping his behaviour to reflect what you want, you can train your dog to not only endure having his nails clipped, but even enjoy it. Whether you realize it or not, if you own a dog you are an animal trainer. Your dog learns something every time you interact with him; you either teach him new behaviours or you reinforce his previously-learned behaviours. This can be a somewhat daunting realization, but it’s also fantastic to think that we can teach our dog to do anything! First things first: what is positive reinforcement? Put simply, positive reinforcement is the addition of something pleasurable that rewards a specific behaviour. It is an extremely effec-

tive method of training because behaviours that are followed by a reward are more likely to occur again in the future (unfortunately, we can also inadvertently train undesirable behaviours this same way so we have to be aware of what behaviour the reward is following). In dog training, positive reinforcement could take the form of praise (“Good Boy!”), petting your dog’s head, letting him play with a toy, or giving him a small treat. In this case, we are going to use treats because they are highly motivating for most dogs. The response we are looking for in this situation is your dog not reacting aggressively to having his nails clipped, so we will reward him when he is relaxed and does not respond to the nail clippers. This is the first installment of a two-part series. Now that you have learned what positive reinforcement is and why it is an effective training method, check back next month to learn the steps you will need to take to train your dog to have his nails clipped.

Electoral area ‘F’ (Grindrod, Grandview Bench, Ashton Creek, Kingfisher, rec area at south end of Mara Lake): Herman Halvorson 327; Jackie Pearase 227.

Ashwagandha

This herb needs more recognition than it currently enjoys. The scientific name is Withania somnifera, and has been used as a tonic and adoptogen (natural substances used in herbal medicine to normalize and regulate the systems of the body) in Ayurvedic medicine for a long time. It is traditionally used for virility and to regain strength after an illness. This is a herb that can be useful for stress and anxiety, and it can even slightly improve one’s sexual drive. It helps with insomnia and improves sleep patterns. It is often recommended to athletes to increase strength and endurance, and also helps with tiredness and fatigue. In some studies, it was found to increase hemoglobin levels. Ashwagandha helps to lower total cholesterol and triglycerides and also helps to improve immunity. It has antioxidants that help in the prevention of cancer. One study showed that ashwagandha had an anti-cancer effect on ovarian cancer in hamsters. For more information see the website below. This herb, also called Indian ginseng, helps to improve brain function and memory. Because it is usually safe and is helpful, I think it is a good herb to reduce the stress commonly experienced in this day and age with our busy lives, and at the same time increase stamina. However, it can interact with certain health conditions such as an overactive thyroid. It may also interact with certain medications, so it’s best to consult a health care provider. I suggest the following website which has good scientific information on this herb: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3252722/ http://www.healthy.net/Health/Article/ Ashwagandha/2266 Readers with enquiries may contact Kosha Vaidya via email at koshahealing@gmail.com.

More veggies for the kids

Most parents will agree that it can be a challenge at times to get the kids (and sometimes the other adult(s) in the household) to eat more vegetables on a regular basis. So this week I thought I would provide some simple tips on how to make it an easier process. Eating vegetables starts at the very beginning. By the very beginning, I mean grow your own vegetables! This doesn’t mean you have to start your own farm either. Begin with a small plot or even a few containers of high-yield and easy-to-grow veggies such as green beans, lettuce, kale, or tomatoes. Get the kids involved right from the beginning by picking out organic seeds, planting them and watering. When they see what this bit of work produces, they will be more open to eating it! The next suggestion is to mince the veggies in a food processor. When vegetables are minced, they’re much easier to add to other staple foods such as rice, mashed potatoes, spaghetti sauce, baking, etc. If your child doesn’t like whole chunks of vegetables then use the food processor or the blender to puree vegetables and add them into homemade soups.

If a serving of steamed vegetables is “not their thing,” then try varying the way they are prepared. Many ordinary veggies can be spruced up and baked into delicious treats such as zucchini loaf, carrot cake, chocolate or even pumpkin pie. Another sneaky way to include more vegetables in your child’s diet is to mix them into homemade burgers. Even better, try googling a recipe for veggie burgers. Fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and fermented pickles are also great additions. And finally, drink those vegetables! Every morning we prepare a smoothie in our VitaMix blender. We throw in all kinds of veggies & fruit plus seeds (flax & chia), to add to our flavoured protein powder. With a little practice, the kids won’t realize the yummy smoothie they are enjoying is LOADED with organic spinach, carrots, kale, celery, ginger, frozen fruit and whatever else is in the fridge. Healthy eating habits are a lifelong process. The sooner they can be learned, the easier it will be for kids and young adults to eat a well balanced diet throughout a lifetime. Dr. Warren Gage is a family chiropractor and can be reached at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 803-0224.

NEW COUNCILS EVERYWHERE In Salmon Arm, Saturday’s voters retained Mayor Nancy Cooper, and she will work with this council: Chad Eliason, Kevin Flynn, Alan Harrison, Ken Jamieson, Tim Lavery, and Louise Wallace Richmond. Congratulations! Is there someone who voted for all seven? ROOTS & BLUES WAS RARELY PROFITABLE. INSERTED FLYERS TO PAY ITS DEBT Jeff Person has been critical of Salmon Arm council in his letters to the editor because it invested $95,000 in the Roots & Blues Festival so it can be held next year. He believes it was a profitable enterprise until 2008 when the Salmon Arm Folk Music Society ousted artistic director Linda Tanaka. I beg to differ. The public rarely saw the financial statements during her time. In its early days the festival was held in a hall just one evening. Then it expanded to two locations, the arena and recreation centre. If you bought a ticket to hear one band, you couldn’t move to hear the band in the other facility. That year, Roots & Blues lost $18,000. When I read that in the Observer, I phoned one of the festival’s organizers and asked if they wanted to insert flyers into this newspaper every week until the debt was paid. They took my offer and entire families came to the industrial park flyer-inserting room once a week and worked till the debt was paid. They did this for two or three years until they were breaking even. I agree with city council, that the Roots & Blues brings millions to Salmon Arm and should be assisted by taxpayers. SHUSWAP LADY STRIDERS PICK UP GARBAGE Lady Striders walk even on cold days, one group in downtown Salmon Arm and one in uptown. Members range from early teens to their 80s. They have been walking several times a week for fitness and friendship for 25 years. Co-ordinator is Pat Kassa. For info on how to join, write ladystriders@gmail.com. Some of the trails the uptown group uses are the trails on the hillside between Askew’s, Bastion Elementary School and Hillside Manor. On the first very cold morning they picked up garbage that littered the trails and forest. They filled 20 black garbage bags that were supplied by the city, and the city picked them up for disposal. Askew’s served them free coffee. FINAL WEEKEND TO CLEAN YOUR YARD Free disposal ends this Sunday, November 23 at CSRD landfills and transfer stations.

SHUSWAP PRO-LIFE ADDS EUTHANASIA CONCERN At the recent AGM, Hildegard Krieg, president of Shuswap Pro-Life Society, informed those present that the website www.shuswapprolife.org is providing support not only to females considering abortion, but also to people who are suffering and are considering end-of-life euthanasia or assisted suicide. Speaker Patricia Argent, secretary of Shuswap ProLife, said that in 2002 Holland was the first to legalize euthanasia and assisted suicide, and the people being

euthanized is steadily increasing. Now Belgium and France offer the same. “Once it starts, it’s a slippery slope.” She said pain and suffering can be managed by good palliative care. In Holland, people over 70 who are tired of living and want to die, can take a pill. It’s a slippery slope. Patricia also stated that that one in four Canadians is aborted, and can be aborted to the ninth month, right up to the moment of birth. Canada does not have a law on abortion. DOCTORS NEED TO TALK TO PATIENTS ABOUT DYING A cancer surgeon in Boston found in his own practice that he was concentrating too much on extending life, even if it meant sacrificing its quality. He believes doctors spend so much time helping people live longer, they’ve neglected how to improve the quality of life at the end of life. A study published earlier this month shows Canadian doctors are not communicating with their patients about death and dying. When palliative care experts were asked for their opinion, many said it’s time for Canadians to talk about end-of-life care. www.cbc.ca/thecurrent TURTLES CHOCOLATES TOASTED THE DECEASED Rosalie Spargo was always a gracious hostess, even in her last five years at Piccadilly Terrace Retirement Residence. She planned her celebration of life service. From her deathbed, she gave a special instruction to daughter Caroline Grover and celebrant Bishop James Cowan. There was to be a box of Turtles chocolates in every pew. At the appropriate time during the service, when everyone in the packed Bowers Funeral Chapel held a Turtle, it was raised like a glass of wine and we said: “To Rosalie!” JIM SCALES WAS MY ROCK WHEN MONITOR STARTED This is another excerpt from my talk at Jim Scales’ memorial on Nov. 8. To read the first excerpt, go to www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca, click on Sidewalk Superintendent and scroll to the Nov. 14th column. “In 1970 Jim took a transfer to Salmon Arm as manager of CIBC. A few years later he quit the bank and eventually became a financial consultant. I started the paper at the same time, in 1975 and we had our offices together in three different locations. The recession happened in 1982 and I confided in one of my staff that I didn’t know how I was going to pay my bills for the paper and the quick-printing shop. She told some of the others and they began planning to start their own paper because they were sure I wouldn’t survive. One of them was able to get some investment money from Austria, and they started The Monitor with great fanfare. How would I survive, with eight of my staff moving to the Monitor, leaving only four with me? I was sure I would die. It was Jim who was my rock. He mortgaged the cabin he built at White Lake and bought my half of our house on Lakeshore Road. He and Al Perry from Chase kept me focused on my paper, which was called Shoppers Guide. The Monitor lasted 11 months.”

SEYMOUR ARM HISTORICAL BOOK IN STORES The rumour in the late 1800s was of gold in the community we now call Seymour Arm. Prospectors reached it from the bend in the Big Bend road from either Revelstoke or Golden. They climbed over the mountain pass, and saw a lake on the other side, now called Seymour Arm of Shuswap Lake. Read about the pioneers, the businesses, the school, and the travel from Sicamous and Chase. Gwen Bauer wrote the History of Seymour Arm when she was a grade 11 student at Chase High School in 1982. Her history is reprinted in the first half of this book, called Seymour Arm, Historical Gem of the Shuswap. In 2007, Estelle Noakes wrote about pioneers, and included many names and pictures. Her story is in the second half of the book. My name appears as publisher, which means I paid to have it published, and am the delivery person to book stores and drug stores around the Shuswap. “BIG TREES SAVED, AND OTHER FEATS” Deanna Kawatski has written the 25-year story of the Shuswap Environmental Action Society. It contains many pictures of trees, forests, lakes, and environmentalists. Deanna wrote the story by condensing hundreds of files from the many boxes that were delivered to her home. MEMORIES OF THE SHUSWAP IN 2015 CALENDAR Andrea Turner purchased all the glass plates of photographer Frank Duncan, who lived here in 1913/14. She operates Fancy That gifts and collectibles in the tall red building opposite Mellor’s Store on Highway 97B. Thirteen beautiful photographs are in the 2015 calendar that is available for $20 from Fancy That, Hucul Printing and Critters pet store. Many enlargements from the Andrea Turner Collection have been made and are for sale in her store. 250-832-3577 Frank Duncan arrived in Salmon Arm in 1913 at the age of 35. He set up a photography studio above the Kualt store and supplemented his income by selling subscriptions to the Salmon Arm Observer. The newspaper commissioned him to take pictures of all areas of the Shuswap area, and Andrea owns the glass plates. The pictures are beautiful, sharp and clear. Many of the subjects are ones I had never seen. Frank Duncan moved back to the United States in 1914 after being here only a year and a half. sallys1@telus.net • 250-832-4831

Lasagna duel

As you know, the Junior Bean Counter is the third boy of four. So he has the baby of the family right behind him and two older brothers above him. I don’t know all the science behind these things, but it definitely seems like this placement in the family has helped to shape who he is and how he approaches life. In particular, nothing shows his aggressive nature more than the supper table. He is like a ravenous hyena who thinks he needs to fight and scrap for food because this will perhaps be the last time he will eat in a month. This despite the fact he has had three square meals plus all the snacks and treats a kid could want every single day of his life. At our house we say grace before we eat, so the rule is that no one is allowed to put anything on their plate until everyone has sat down and we’ve said grace. It also is meant to be a courtesy to each other as we want to be sitting down together and settled before we simply start stuffing our faces. Call it an attempt at good manners! So the other night, I noticed something a little different when the Junior Bean Counter sat down at the table. After getting comfortable in his chair, he started to carefully arrange the food dishes that were placed in front of him. He pulled the lasagna pan slightly towards his plate and then he grabbed the serving spatula and strategically placed it directly in front of him so that he would have the quickest

by Daron Mayes access to the food. He then did the same with the bowl of Caesar salad. Sitting directly across from him is our second oldest, who I could tell was rubbing his hands together when he saw his little brother doing this. To him it signaled a “duel.” What better way to get his brother worked up than to beat him in a quick draw for the lasagna spatula and salad tongs? Well, the word “Amen” became the equivalent of the “bang!” from a gun to start a 100 metre race. I mean the noise and chaos that ensued was something to behold. In the end, it backfired on both of them, as they were required to wait and watch as their two brothers and parents were allowed to be served first while they cleaned up the spilled water and food that had flown sky-high in the whole exchange. The irony was when it finally was their turn, they quickly turned extremely generous (albeit insincerely) with each other. “You go first!” “No you go first, I insist!” “No you, I’m not hungry!” Eventually they ate their food, but did so while receiving a lecture about being courteous to others, etc. I thought to myself, “If only I could get them to move that fast when it comes to cleaning up the dishes!”

Welcome and congratulations to newcomers Tim Lavery and Louise Wallace Richmond, and a welcome back to former councillor, Kevin Flynn. Congratulations also to Bobbi Johnson and Michel Saab for their re-election as Salmon Arm trustees for North Okanagan Shuswap School District 83. Around the Shuswap area, Paul Demenok was re-elected as Area ‘C’ South Shuswap Director, and Rene Talbot was re-elected for Area ‘D’- Falkland/ Salmon Valley/Ranchero/Deep Creek.

And outside the Salmon Arm area, congratulations to Greg Blain (my brother) for his landslide victory on Monday in the Ashcroft Indian Band election. Phone scam targets local business Jo McDermott, owner of Java Jive, got a phone call a few weeks ago from someone who said she was calling from BC Hydro Disconnection Services. She called during the lunch rush and told Jo that technicians were on their way to turn off the power. “She said your account is showing overdue and you need to make a payment. I said, ‘You can’t turn off my service, this isn’t fair.’ I knew I had paid my bill and they had no reason to cut it off. She said it hadn’t processed and neither had the one before. She said in order to stop the technicians I had to pay immediately.” Jo was going to give her credit card 2014

number but the person on the phone told her BC Hydro was connected with certain pre-paid Visa reload card packs. Jo found that Safeway was the only place in town to buy them. She bought them on her own personal credit card and then, over the phone, gave the supposed BC Hydro employee the numbers of the card with the pin number. “She said, ‘Thank you, I will call the technicians off.’ She said, ‘I know you’ve been unhappy with this process so I’ve lodged a complaint on your behalf and you will hear from us in 72 hours.” Jo was expecting BC Hydro to arrange a refund for the overpayment once all the paperwork came through on her original payment. They never called so she phoned them. This time she had BC Hydro’s real number. She explained what happened and asked them to fix the clerical error. “He said, ‘We wouldn’t have done that,’” says Jo referring to the imminent threat of shutting off her power. “He said, ‘We never give less than 24 hours.’” He said her account was in perfect standing. “He said, ‘You’ve been scammed.’” She called the RCMP and the Canadian Fraud Centre: “They were familiar with this scam. They said it started in Ontario and it leapfrogged over to BC. They said they had one other complaint in this area.” The scam artists had ‘spoofed’ the phone number so there is no way of tracing it. Jo’s money is gone and she is embarrassed that she fell for this scam but wanted other businesses owners to be aware. Scam artists often target seniors, but they aren’t the only ones who are vulnerable, she says, it’s anyone whose livelihood is involved. “They target small restaurants because their utility bills are usually sky-high. You get into such a panic you just want to fix it. If I had taken time to breathe I might have questioned it but they threatened me when my store was full.” On the move Brenda Walch (pictured at left, below, with Mavis Reagan, Wendy Tuff, Allison Turland, and Teri Hutchinson), formerly the Executive Director for the Shuswap Hospice Society, has moved onto a new position as General Manager of The Shuswap Community Resources Cooperative (SCRC).

New name - same owner & service Salmon Arm Home Repair, formerly Shuswap Home Repair, has been operating as a local renovation and handyman specialist in Salmon Arm since 2002. Despite the new name, it is still owned and operated by Stewart Fuson (above). The name change came about because Stewart didn’t register “Shuswap Home Repair” as a limited company with the government when he was sole proprietor back in 2002. “Then someone else came along and registered the name so I had to change the name of my company,” says Stewart, “but I want everyone to know we are still serv-

ing the Shuswap even though the name is ‘Salmon Arm Home Repair.’ Our crew will travel anywhere from Sicamous to Chase, and from the North Shore to Armstrong.” Salmon Arm Home Repair is a fully insured general contractor that does residential renovations, insurance claims as well as commercial building maintenance and repairs. “We do quite a range of residential jobs,” says Stewart, “renovations to kitchens and bathrooms, decks & fences, painting, flooring, and water damage remediation, and we offer a discount for seniors.” Salmon Arm Home Repair won “Business of Excellence” in 2011. Because of the hassle Stewart has gone through, he wanted to give advice to business owners: “I registered as a Sole Proprietor which did not protect my company name. To protect your company name it must be registered as a limited company.”

In high-tech age, books will prevail

By Leif Saba E-readers can never compare to books, and despite assured future technological advances, books will remain ubiquitous, and undisputed as the superior reading medium. E-readers do have something to offer in the world of reading, but books have more to offer, as is explained hereafter. Perhaps it is simply time-honoured tradition, or some other cultural reason, but there is nothing like reading a good book that you can hold in your hands. Whether a classic like John Steinbeck’s “Grapes of Wrath,” or a work of fantasy such as “The Fionavar Tapestry” by Guy Gavriel Kay, or even a book of poetry like Lorne Dufour’s “The Silence of Horses”, any and all books can be better appreciated when they have pages to turn, and a cover to close. Although one is discouraged to ‘judge a book by its cover’ one can’t help but appreciate what a note-worthy cover illustration can lend to the allure—seductiveness even—of a book. Rows of books crowding a shelf lend an aesthetic air to a library or a home, becoming part of the artistic expression of a space, simply by filling it. A person’s collection of books, exposed to the viewing of others, can reveal the inner working of that person’s mind, and what aspects of life they appreciate, or yearn for. When reading a book, one develops a personal connection to the book as an object, as if they have traveled a journey together, following a certain route—the plot—and meeting certain people—the characters. There is something innately special about this relationship, which cannot adequately be recreated by an e-reader. Books can be passed down, from generation to generation, and the

unique physical qualities characteristic of all books tell a story of their own. Books can also be shared, and wrapped up as gifts; a book chosen after much consideration is one of the best gifts anyone can give. In short, a book is an intrinsic part of the story that it contains. To do away with books would be to do away with a unique aspect of reading that e-readers cannot offer. In a time where touchscreens are more prevalent than books, it is not surprising that e-readers have become popular. Their advocates maintain its superiority in the interest of space. For travelling, one can bring more stories on an e-reader. They claim it is more environmentally sustainable, as trees aren’t needed to fill a book with pages, and ink isn’t needed to tattoo those pages. Ostensibly, it is cheaper to buy an e-book, and delivery waits are non-existent. In fact, there are many free books available online. The selection of e-books available is not limited, and one can still read classics and fantasies and books of poems. One can take notes with e-books, and never lose one’s place. One can even read erotic literature like E. L. James’ “Fifty Shades of Gray” in public places, without having the cover give you away. For these reasons and more, e-readers are preferred by some. It’s evident that e-readers are more versatile and practical than books, whereas books offer the personal, aesthetic slant to reading. I have yet to buy an e-reader, but perhaps when it is necessary to travel light, I will give in to the inescapable advances of technological trends. Given this possibility, I am certain that my e-reader will never occupy the top shelf, for that is reserved for my indelible friends, books.

With hunting season fast coming to a close, it appears that more hunters in the field are seeing less game than normal. In years past, it wasn’t unusual to see a herd of deer here; a small band of sheep there. Elk in the Kootenays numbered in the thousands. But like the ol’ Bob Dylan song says, “the times, they are a’ changin.” Dynamics play a large part in these numbers, and they lay out some interesting stats. From my perspective, we are not managing our game animals, mainly due to a lack of funding. Throw in more salvage, newly expanding logging, mines, dams, road access, unregulated hunting, and a reduced number of wildlife managers, and you have a recipe for seeing fewer harvestable animals. Predators also play a large part in the wild cycle of life. When you have an predator/ prey imbalance leaning towards higher numbers of wolves, bears, and cougars, who all have to eat too, this tends to reduce the numbers of deer, elk, and moose. Recent statistics from the BC C a t t l e m e n ’s Association claim three million dollars in lost income from predator attack and mortality of cattle, including calves. Something else interesting is that managers in Region# 8 Okanagan, Region# 3 are increasing the whitetail doe seasons, to try to protect and increase mule deer numbers. The more

does being harvested, the fewer animals you’ll have, regardless of species. As opportunity declines for hunters to harvest game animals, due to lack of investment in the management of our game animals, you’ll see more conservative management along with shorter seasons. The sore losers in all of this is the government, through loss of revenue from licences, tags; as well as communities that lose out on revenue from travel, meals, and lodging. An example of this was the 2012 moose hunting season, when hunters generated $778,480 in licenses and surcharges, and contributed $194,620 to the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation. Now, the writing’s on the wall outside of game management, the BC Wildlife Federation, and its 43,000 members. The BC Trappers’ Association, along with guides and outfitters, have called on the government to take a second look at and provide more protection for the environment from the resource sectors such as mining, gas, and oil. For a decade, government has relied on industry professionals to monitor and guide the companies doing work, not allowing the province to pay attention to the cumulative effects that industry has on wildlife, watersheds, and ecosystems. An ombudsman’s report came out in March on the use of professional reliance

to protect sensitive areas around streams during logging; it concluded that there was a lack of oversight, training, information, and reporting by the provincial government. Also, there was inadequate government oversight in the aftermath of the Imperial Metals Mount Polley tailings pond collapse. The Vancouver Sun reported that the BC Ministry of Energy, Mines and Natural Gas conducted no geotechnical inspections of the Mount Polley mine in 2009, 2010, and 2011; and only five inspections of BC’s 60 operating mines in 2010 and 2011. Since the collapse of the Mount Polley tailings pond, more inspectors have been hired. On recreational angling: Region# 3 of the BC W i l d l i f e Federation (interior), realizing there is major issues pertaining to proper funding/ managing our inland fisheries, has proposed a sport fishing advisory group. This is garnering a cool reception from the wildlife/fisheries manager in Kamloops. For years now, our group has proposed a steelhead hatchery at Spence’s Bridge, to propagate and enhance fishing of this special, spectacular strain. The ministry is again rebuffing the idea. We are at a crossroads in this province regarding our future for hunting, fishing, access, and managing

Updates for outdoor enthusiasts After what seemed like years of debate, and delay, registration of ATVs, quads, dirt bikes is now on the books for 2015. For a one-time fee of $48, all will have to register, similar to when snowmobiles had to register with a decal. The only catch here is that it’s a licence plate, and thieves steal them all the time, to put on trailers and equipment for transport. One thing for sure – never take a licence plate off an insured car, truck, utility/quad trailer, and place it on an uninsured unit. Your vehi-

cle, and whatever you are towing, will not be covered by insurance. Rails to Trails: BC government has dashed cyclists’ hopes for this project, saying it lacks the resources to police corridors for ATVs, quads, dirt bikes, 4x4’s, and snowmobiles. The motorized users argue that there has never been any legislation enacted by government to keep them off sections of rail line. These abandoned rail corridors provide for a unique experience, whether you’re cycling, walking, hiking, horseback riding, or cross country skiing. The fox is in the hen house on this one, as about a decade ago, the province cut jobs to 348 forest service employees, park rangers, and field staff, in the environment ministries. You really have to wonder about the logic behind many decisions made behind closed doors in Victoria. Meantime, enjoy our great outdoors!

Make the most of Black Friday shopping

Black Friday is one the biggest shopping days of the year, and is often the perfect time to begin holiday shopping and save money on incredible deals. Thousands of eager shoppers will leave their homes in the early morning hours and wait in lines at stores in order to grab the best prices of the season, while retailers will be gearing up to lure the greatest number of shoppers. Surviving the day unscathed and arriving home with discounts galore involves having a game plan for success.

• Know the prices of the items you want to buy. Scour advertisements in advance of Black Friday to gauge the regular retail prices for common items, including electronics. Comparison shop for the best prices and make notes to help you when Black Friday arrives. • Understand the fine print of “door busters.” Door buster sales are meant to get shoppers into stores, where retailers hope shoppers will make additional purchases while taking advantage of advertised deals. If door buster items are all you’re looking for, read the advertisements carefully, noting the start and end time of the discounts and if there will be limited quantities. In addition, determine if there is a special return policy for sale items purchased on Black Friday. • Dress for comfort. Wear sensible, comfortable shoes and clothing when shopping. Leave a large purse at home and opt for something compact that can be draped securely over your shoulder and body to navigate the crowds. Keep your coat in the car or make use of a coat check service if available. Dress in layers if you will be waiting outside for stores to open. This way you can shed clothing as the mercury rises or when you get inside. • Arrive together but shop separately. The “divide and conquer” method of shopping allows everyone in your shopping party to score good deals. Split up shopping tasks and then head to different areas of the store. Share and collect your purchases when you meet up after the rush. • Make a list and stick to it. Buyers’ remorse come Saturday morning is common for those who have over-extended their budgets and purchased items they did not need. Know ahead of time what you plan to purchase and do not veer off course.

• Scout the stores ahead of time. Visit the stores where you plan to shop a few days before Black Friday. Learn the layout of the store and where everything is located. Try on certain clothes or read over the labels of big-ticket items you plan to buy. Knowing where items are located and having all of your information in advance will cut down on the time it takes to find items on Black Friday. • Don’t overlook nontraditional stores. Many other stores, from pharmacies to supermarkets, stock items apart from food and toiletries. Consider taking advantage of their sales for some Black Friday deals. • Park off campus. Mall parking lots can get just as crowded as the stores themselves. Save yourself time and the stress of finding a spot by parking near the store but away from the crowd. • Clean out your car prior to shopping. Make room in the trunk or cargo area for all of your purchases. For those who will be buying large, heavy items, find out if the store will ship the merchandise or will hold it aside until you can take it home. Understand that some stores will not hold items and enlist a friend or spouse to help you pack purchases into the car. • Promptly store receipts. Designate a folder or envelope for all of your receipts to keep them organized and handy. • Pack a small snack and drink. It’s easy to become dehydrated and hungry waiting in long lines, which can compromise your decision-making abilities. Bring a snack so that you can recharge your body and continue shopping. • Leave the kids at home. Black Friday shopping can be stressful, and children can easily get lost or bumped around in the fray. It is safer to leave them home so you can focus your full attention on shopping. • Know when to call it quits. Establish a firm cut-off time for ending your shopping excursion. This way you can head home, rest and sort through your purchases.

Okanagan Horsey Ladies give back

by Nancy Roman One hundred and thirty Horsey Ladies converged on the Spallumcheen Golf Course for the 17th Annual Horsey Ladies Okanagan Charity Auction on November 14th. The gals came from all over the interior to socialize, shop and give back to charity. Out of curiosity we asked each lady coming through the door how many horses she has? Collectively we have just over 340 horses! Committee members this year included Ruby Edwards, Elspeth Manning, Michele Gould, Amy Vaughan, Sheila Sperling, Patti Thomas, Sly Keyes, Nancy Roman; and numerous volunteers helping that evening. Fifty-eight donated items were on the Silent Auction tables and over

80 on the Chinese (ticket) auction tables. The Golf Course was also holding a Toy Drive and ladies had the option of bringing gifts and their name be entered in a draw. The gifts arrived in abundance! Ten charities were nominated and/or pitched that evening and the top two vote getters were the Vernon Women’s Transition House (Equine Assisted Therapy Program – Wendy Elrick) and BC SPCA Cruelty Investigations (Constable Kathy Woodward). We are pleased to announce, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and the ladies bidding, we raised $8,600+ (exceeding last year’s $7,400). Once the final tally is in, we will split equally between the two charities. This brings our total fundraising amount to over

$65,600 raised. The Horsey Ladies is neither a club nor a society; we have no president or bank account. We are just a bunch of gals that get together and meet at Christmas and seek out donations throughout the year. We appreciate and thank all of the local and out-of-town sponsors. Find us on Facebook to see the full list.

“We thank Kelli and the catering staff at Spallumcheen Golf Course for a tremendous job and taking such good care of us.” Pictured above is our 2014 committee (from left): Elspeth, Sheila, Amy (front), Sly, Patti, Michele (front), Donna (helped out that evening), Ruby, and Nancy.

Layers are the key

My last column was about how much heat goes out your windows. This one is about what you can do to reduce that loss without getting new windows or a second mortgage. The key here is to prevent the cold air outside the window from meeting the warm air of the room through the use of layers. If you add layers between the window and the room, you can make a huge dent in the heat loss. Cold air will sneak in around the window covering – on the sides and above and below, so add your heat-loss prevention solutions to the largest area possible. If you are adding curtains, for example, extend them past the window frame in all directions as much as you can. That old standby plastic on the window frames can double the R-value of the window. It works about as well as adding a one-layer curtain – if it is applied correctly. Buy the kit and follow the directions. These aren’t the same as the kits of even a few years ago; they work much better now. If you have a blind on the window, consider adding a blackout Roman blind behind the existing one. You may have to move your blinds forward a bit. Have one made of flannel and blackout lining, it will give you added R-value

of about 3 or 4. From some like me, that should cost you about $15.00 per square foot. If that is outside your budget, buy a roller shade or ready-made Roman; the R-value will be lower, but anything is better than nothing. It’s best if you can get a “reverse roll;” the shade rolls off the roller toward the window, not down the front. Add a similarly-constructed Roman blind in front of the existing blinds. Plan on removing it in the summer. Add lined drapes over your window blinds or shades. Add blackout removable liners to existing drapes. There are readymade ones available everywhere. They attach to either the drape or the curtain rod. For added insulation, buy some thin cotton quilt batting and attach it to the backside of your drapes. (Safety pins work just fine, no one will see them.) Here is a snapshot: Window: R-value 2. Add a double cellular shade, R-value is up to 6 or 7. Add flannel-lined blackout drapes, you are up to about R-value of 14 or so. Add a valance at the top and the R-value of the whole shebang is up to 16 or more. Need I say more? See me on Designsewlutions.ca for more heat-conserving ideas.

SASCU Rec Centre promotes physical literacy

Salmon Arm Recreation is one of the many recipients of the RBC (Royal Bank of Canada) Learn to Play Project Program Grants. RBC’s Commitment to Kids is $100 million, over five years, for over one million kids. The RBC Learn to Play Project is a multi–year commitment dedicated to incorporating physical literacy into youth sport and recreation programs with the goal of encouraging more kids to get out and play The RBC Learn to Play Project is a commitment to provide kids with the right start in sport to enable them to play and become healthy and active for life. The Learn to Play project also understands that children need to learn fundamental movement skills to develop the confidence and competence to participate in sport and physical activity. Salmon Arm Recreation’s Learn to Play initiative is called “Making Movement Matter.” Through this initiative the SASCU Recreation Centre will be offering a variety of children’s programs to development physical literacy in children. ‘Physical Literacy’ is the

gateway to physical activity. Celebrating RBC Sports Day will be the first event, to take place on Friday, November 28.

The SASCU Recreation Centre will be having a Free Try-It Day for kids aged 2–14 to try a variety of sports and movement skills. There will be tennis, basketball shooting, baseball hitting, and soccer shooting, along with movement testing in sprints, vertical jump and flexibility. The event is divided into two age groups, 1:00–3:00 p.m. for preschoolers and homeschooled children and 3:00– 5:00 p.m. for school aged children. November 28th is also Jersey Day, so wear your sport jersey to show pride for your favourite team. Starting in January, the Making Movement Matter ini-

tiative will be running Get Active programs for 6–9 year olds and Tot Sports for 3–5 year olds. These two programs will be focusing on the fundamental movements required for children to become active for life. Running, jumping, throwing, hitting, and catching are the key fundamental movements. Basic sport skills will be introduced but the main focus is mastering the fundamental movements. These programs will be offered at reduced rates due to the support through the RBC Learn to Play Project. More information on these programs will be in the Winter 2015 Fun Guide, coming out on Friday, November 28. The Making Movement Matter initiative also wants to support community leaders that work with young children in a physically active setting. Whether you are a sport coach, day care leader, school teacher, you have an impact on helping children learn fundamental

movements. A Fundamental Movement Workshop is being offered for free at the SASCU Recreation Centre on Sunday, January 11 from 9 a.m.–5 p.m. Register early as space is limited. For more information on the Making Movement Matter initiative, call Donna at 250-832-4044.

SnowPass gets kids out on the slopes

Why not put skiing and snowboarding on your list of outdoor activities for your family to participate in this year? The Canadian Ski Council (CSC) has a great way to help you out: the CSC’s Grade 4 & 5 SnowPass is back for its 18th season, just in time for the upcoming winter season. The Grade 4 & 5 SnowPass is an unbeatable offer, providing 9- and 10-year-old children with three lift passes at each of the 150+ ski areas, nationwide, for just $29.95. That’s over 450 lift passes! “Introducing children to skiing and snowboarding are great ways for children to learn a new sport that they can participate in during the winter months. Teaching children to ski or snowboard at an early age gives them lifetime access to these healthy winter sports,” says Patrick Arkeveld, President and CEO of the Canadian Ski Council. “It keeps them active, outside, fit, and less prone to obesity during the winter months. Skiing and snowboarding are also great activities for the entire family to participate in, and the SnowPass allows children to engage in the sport in an affordable way.” The SnowPass provides children in grades 4 and 5 (born in 2004 or 2005) with three lift tickets at each participating ski area across Canada, allowing them the opportunity to ski and snowboard hundreds of times over the winter season. You only need to apply once for the

SnowPass and it is valid until the end of grade 5. This means if you apply in grade 4 the SnowPass is valid for two seasons. The SnowPass is active as of December 1st until the end of the season. To sign up for your very own SnowPass, visit www. snowpass.ca (or www.passeportdesneiges.ca for French speaking applicants), where you’ll be able to upload your child’s picture, proof of age, and pay the $29.95 administration fee. SnowPasses are mailed as early as mid-November, in time for the December 1st SnowPass start date. The Grade 4 & 5 SnowPass is a national program and is valid at over 150 ski areas across Canada, including 31 ski areas in British Columbia, 19 ski areas in Alberta, 1 ski area in Saskatchewan, 2 ski areas in Manitoba, 32 ski areas in Ontario, 57 ski areas in Quebec, 8 ski areas in Atlantic Canada, and 1 ski area in the Yukon. With ski areas participating across Canada, families will not have to travel far to put their SnowPass to use. Kids can easily track how many lift passes they have remaining by visiting www.snowpass.ca. Grade 4 and 5 SnowPass information and applications are available online at www.snowpass.ca or www.passeportdesneiges.ca. Application forms are also being distributed to elementary schools across Canada in November.

SPORTS & LEISURE Tier Two Silvertips put in good effort and win home tournament By James Thompson The Salmon Arm Bantam Tier Two Silvertips (pictured) hosted their 2015 tournament against a group of very talented teams this past weekend. Sponsored by Scotiabank, the Tips’ first game was against Nelson and it was evident Salmon Arm hadn’t played for a couple of weeks, but they did manage to start the scoring at 14:51 in the first frame. The second period began with a 1-0 score and finished with a score of 4-2 in favour of the Tips; after five goals, the period ended quietly. Salmon Arm needed to come out strong for the third but luck decided to leave their side and the final score found Salmon Arm with a 5-4 loss and a collective look of confusion.

Saturday began with a 0-1 record and an early game would be what the Silvertips needed to get their scoring juices flowing. Prince George began the game a half a step back and never regained their balance as the home team Tips began the scoring at 5:15 of the first. Scoring in the second period started at about one minute in and ended about 17 minutes later as the Silvertips potted 6 goals while Prince George managed to get 2 finishing the period with a 7-2 tally. The third frame started with a quick goal for Salmon Arm and a final marker at 9:07 Prince George finished the scoring with 7:33 left and the Tips got their first win of the tournament with a final score of 9-2. Tournament Saturday meant two games, and the second match started at

5:00 against Maple Ridge. The pace in the first period was slower than normal as the two teams figured each other out, and after twenty minutes the score sat at 0-0. The second frame was an offensive accomplishment as the Tips put 4 goals in the net and put themselves in a great position for the third period with a 4-0 lead. The final frame brought just as many goals to Salmon Arm and Maple Ridge scored twice more as the Tips finished the match at 8-2. Day two of the tournament finished with the

Silvertips sitting in second place with a 2-1 record. Their finish put them into a semi final game against Kamloops on Sunday morning at 8:15. After three hockey games in twenty four hours the possibility that Salmon Arm would show up tired was high, but the energy that they displayed for a full sixty-seven minutes against Kamloops was phenomenal. At the end of regulation these two teams were all tied up at 1-1 and all seat edges were loaded as the overtime period began, but even after five more minutes the score remained even. Shoot outs only work well for one team, and thankfully Salmon Arm was next in line for a win as the Tips won the semi final by a score of 2-1 moving them into a final game against Trail. Salmon Arm entered the rink for the final match against Trail with a 0-1-1 record in the regular season. With that thought in the backs of their heads a very determined Silvertips team had to show up for the showdown. Appreciating what each team is capable of, the start of the period began calmly. As time passed the pace quickened but scoring was absent at the end of the period. The first goal of the game finally arrived courtesy of Salmon Arm at 12:17 of the second period but with only 4:30 left Trail put one in ending the period in a 1-1 tie. The Silvertips stamina and relentless pressure is what peaked in the final frame as they scored a lead goal at 12:46. It was all Salmon Arm as the home team outshot Trail 43-13 and potted one more goal to win the final match and tournament with a 3-1 score. The Silvertips scored 26 goals in their games, involving all players including some amazing performances by the goaltenders who only let in 11 goals. Congratulations Salmon Arm! Photo contributed.

GARY GRANT CARSCADDEN 1937 - 2014

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gary Carscadden, our loving husband, dad, uncle, pop pop and friend. After a short stay in Bastion Place, Gary passed away on November 15, due to complications suffered from a stroke on September 16. He was 77. He is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Mary, son Todd, daughter Lara (Doug), grandson Nigel and numerous nephews and nieces. Gary was born on March 12, 1937 in Storthoaks, SK. In 1951, his family moved to Brandon, MB. Following his high school education, Gary worked at the Brandon Generating Station. In the summer of 1959, while playing baseball, Gary broke his leg, and while in the hospital he met Mary, when she provided nursing care to him. They married two years later. In 1970, Gary and family moved to High River, AB. In 1972, the family moved to Kamsack, SK, where they lived for 19 years. Gary worked in the insurance business. Later, he worked as a drug and alcohol abuse counselor at the Kamsack Union Hospital, and as a parts man at JD Farm Equipment. In 1991, Gary and Mary moved to Salmon Arm, where they had planned to retire. Gary enjoyed golfing, boating, camping, hiking, playing crib, hearts and online poker. Gary was an avid snowmobiler, serving as president of the Kamsack Snow Drifters Club for many years. Gary’s greatest love was spending time with his family, always volunteering and helping his children in their activities. He was very popular to all his relatives, a favorite uncle to many.

Ruby Bridge (nee Widmark) Florence Ruby Anna was born to parents Olaf and Hilma Widmark on March 9, 1926. She was the ‘tail end’ of a family of 5 kids, having 3 brothers, Stanley, Walter and Harold and one sister, Opal. Her father homesteaded the farm property at Balmoral with her grandfather, who had both emigrated from Sweden. Her mother’s family were also from Sweden, and had started off their new world adventure in Minnesota, and then moved north to the Falun area of Alberta. Ruby’s family was raised on the farm. Family income was supplemented by work in lumber mills, hewing railway ties, selling block ice from the pond and sales of milk and cream. Ruby went to school as a young child at the old Balmoral School, now located at O’Keefe Ranch near Vernon. She attended school and reached Grade 9 before beginning to work as a cook in a variety of locations, sometimes in fishing or logging camps and also at the Montebello Hotel and York Café in Salmon Arm. She went to stay with her Grandma Olson in Wetaskiwin, Alberta and to work at the Brightview Store, where she met the love of her life, George ‘Nip’ Bridge. They were married at St. Mary’s Church in Sorrento in 1950 after Nip’s parents, Lester and Harriet bought the small orchard where Sorrento Hardware is now located. Ruby and Nip started a family in 1951, and by 1954 had moved back to the farm to help Ruby’s mother. Her mother lived with Ruby and Nip for 15 years until her death. Ruby remained living on the original homestead until 2013 when she moved to Lakeside Manor. Ruby and Nip farmed together, cut railway ties, ran a trail riding business and made a life together surrounded by their family and a wide network of farming friends. They enjoyed the Old Time Dance Club and socializing as well as working hard on the farm. Ruby was a fiercely independent and capable woman, especially when faced with continuing on after the death of Nip in an industrial accident in 1983. She learned how to drive a car at the age of 56. With her brother, sister, their spouses and friends, she did a few memorable bus tours and cruises. In later years, Ruby enjoyed her grandchildren, painting, gardening, making music, skiing, walking and skating on the pond. She loved having neighbours and family drop by for coffee and her wonderful meals and baking. She loved to cook for large family events and make soup for the White Lake New Horizons club gatherings and drive her friend Lena shopping and to social events. Ruby passed away November 12, 2014 and is survived by her 3 children, Judy (Marv) Southwick, Jack (Maureen) Bridge, Cherilyn (John) Drew, 8 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, and 1 great great grandchild. She will be greatly missed by all her family, as well as extended relatives and friends. The family would like to thank Dr. Adele Preto and Dr. Angela Plessis for their many years of care as well as the staff at Lakeside Manor, Piccadilly Care and the Hospice Society. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Shuswap Hospice Society or the local Red Cross Loan Cupboard are encouraged. Online condolences may be sent to Ruby’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Family will be hosting a celebration of life on Saturday, November 29, 2014 at Carlin Hall at 2:00 p.m.
