Food bank demand rises Requests for seasonal hampers up 19 per cent from past years by John Arendt The Summerland Food Bank distributed 143 Christmas hampers this year, up significantly from last year’s number. Tara Hollas, resource coordinator of the Summerland Food Bank and Resource Centre said a total of 300 people — 201 adults and 99 children — benefitted from the seasonal hampers.
The demand was greater than last year, said John Bubb, president of the food bank. A year ago, 120 hampers were distributed. “It’s not really surprising,” Bubb said of the increased need. “The cost of living continues to go up, but wages don’t go up.” Those receiving disability payments and those working for low wages make up the largest numbers of food bank recipients, he said. “We need an adjustment to the welfare and disability rates,” he said “These rates are woefully
inadequate for today’s amazing,” he said. “We’re costs.” constantly humbled by While the demand has the response of the comincreased, the community munity to what we’re gave generously to sup- doing.” port the food bank.

It’s really quite heartwarming.” Over the past two months, the community has had numerous initiatives to support the food bank and the seasonal gift drive. The food bank provided assistance to 239 households, representing 557 people, between Nov. 1, 2013 and Oct. 31, 2014.

Power surge will be addressed
The municipality will hold a public information meeting to discuss the meter failures following a recent power surge. The meeting will be held at the Arena Banquet Room on Tuesday, Jan. 6 at 7 p.m. Don Darling, director of works and utilities for the municipality, said the power surge early on Nov. 26 damaged 69 electrical meters and affected around 220 residences. The incident occurred following a heavy snowfall. Property owners whose meters were
damaged in this incident must retain an electrician to perform a megger test on their electrical system. The test involves disconnecting all electrical and electronic items and then introducing 500 volts to the internal wiring to determine if there was damage. The cost for this test is estimated at $600. A 15-page report, prepared for the municipality by Primary Engineering and Construction of Kelowna, is available on the municipality’s website.

When the call was announced last month, the response from host families was encouraging, Komljenovic said. In past years, various churches in Summerland have hosted a special dinner on Christmas Day.

Puget Sound Energy. The energy utility serves more than one million electrical customers in northwest Washington. The storm left 170,000 electrical customers without power. Restoring the electrical power was a big job. Wilson and the others worked long hours, with little down time, in the rush to restore the power. The weather conditions were ideal, he said. The storm’s high winds were over by the time the restoration work began and the workers had blue skies, sunshine and mild conditions as they reconnected the electrical power. “They were appreciative of our work,” Wilson said. Earlier this year, Wilson finished his apprenticeship as a lineman. Earlier, he had worked as an electrician.

A dozen Summerland families will have special guests for Christmas dinner tomorrow as a part of a NeighbourLink initiative. Summerland’s Great Christmas Match-Up was introduced this fall as a way to bring together those who wish to host others for the day and those who do not want to spend Christmas Day alone. Mirjana Komljenovic, community coordinator for NeighbourLink said

is important since there are some who would otherwise spend Christmas on their own. “How do we bring the spirit of Christmas into the community? This is what we are about,” she said. Komljenovic expects next year’s event will be bigger than this year’s match-up. She added that the Great Christmas Match-Up will likely become an annual event in Summerland.

When a winter storm battered Washington State earlier this month, Bill Wilson of Summerland helped to restore the electrical power. Wilson, who works as a lineman with the City of Penticton, was one of four Penticton workers who travelled to Washington to provide assistance. He and fellow Summerlander Ryan Robillard were in the northern part of the state, along with other electrical workers from around British Columbia. By the time they arrived, there was a 20-vehicle convoy of electrical workers, from many communities. Wilson and Robillard left on Wednesday, Dec. 10, after work and were in Washington for five days. “It was a great experience,” Wilson recalled. “It was the chance of a lifetime.”

LEGALLY SPEAKING...
A public service message from Bell, Jacoe & Company
Scam Artists While they are a problem throughout the year, the darker, lonelier days of winter are the favourite time for Scam Artists to ply their trade. They take advantage of the fact that in winter many Seniors (their usual targets) are more likely to be cooped up at home without much family or otherwise friendly contact. With their very polished pitches they befriend people, usually by telephone, and convince them to send money for all manner of items or services which will never appear. The best way to protect yourself against these people is to have a very healthy scepticism for any deal or product that sounds too good to be true. The simple fact is, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is! Do not be afraid to phone a friend or family member if you receive a letter or call from someone with the deal of a lifetime. Ask them what they think of it. In addition ask for as much information as you can from the caller and check up on them. If the deal is legitimate, they won't mind you protecting yourself. If they do, then it's a very good sign that they are not who or what they say they are.

our pick
The need among us The number of Christmas food hampers distributed in Summerland rose significantly this year. Last week, a total of 143 hampers were distributed to households in the community, up from 120 a year earlier. The hampers provided for 300 people, one third of them children. Over the past year, 557 people from 239 Summerland households received food bank assistance. Problems of hunger and poverty do not just exist in other parts of the world. The same problems are present here, in our community. People we know are affected. The Summerland Food Bank was established 30 years ago, in 1984. Each year since then, the need has continued to increase. The growing demand for food bank assistance is not unique to Summerland. Similar trends have been observed provincially and nationally. Over the past year, 97,369 British Columbians received assistance from food banks. Across Canada, food banks assist 841,191 people each month. The people of Summerland have been generous in their support of the food bank, especially as the festive season approaches. Individuals, schools, service organizations and businesses have collected food and cash donations to help meet the demand at this time of the year. The same level of generosity shows in the annual Toys and Toonies for Tots and Teens gift drive. While this outpouring of support is heartwarming and inspiring, more is needed. In addition to giving generously, it is important to examine the causes of poverty in our community and to take measures to address those causes. The growing need for food bank assistance is a disturbing trend which must not continue unchecked.
This Christmas, a dozen Summerland families will open their homes to guests who would otherwise be alone for the holiday. This spirit of generosity is inspiring and encouraging. This is a season of giving and generosity. Sharing a meal is one way of showing this spirit of giving. Hosting a family at Christmas may also become an important part of the annual holiday traditions for some.
Climate talks end 2014 in disarray VICTORIA – In case you missed the outcome of the latest United Nations climate change conference in Lima, Peru, it was another costly, embarrassing failure. This one is likely to be remembered mostly for a staggeringly stupid stunt by Greenpeace employees, who were threatened with prosecution for defacing the Nazca Lines, a world herit- Tom Fletcher age site in the Peruvian desert. These vast 1,500-year-old petroglyphs, visible from space, are among the great mysteries of archaeology. “Time for a change!” blared huge yellow letters dragged across the sacred site by paid protesters trampling the delicate terrain. I’ll say it’s time for a change, starting with scratching Greenpeace off your Christmas card list. Earlier there was the spectacle of Canada’s national media, reflexively denouncing Ottawa’s supposed inaction on greenhouse gases after U.S. President Barack Obama unveiled a surprise climate agreement with China in advance of Peru. “Over to you, Mr. Prime Minister,” chirped CBC anchor Wendy Mesley, joining other TV networks in falsely portraying the U.S. deal as a breakthrough. This non-binding gesture soon produced many cartoons,
one of which shows Obama stripped to his underwear in a poker game with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who is surrounded by a pile of chips and an American flag. The U.S.-China announcement served as a preview of Peru, where developing countries would again refuse any substantive restrictions on their fuel use. China graciously agreed to continue ramping up its world-leading greenhouse gas emissions until 2030, while lame-duck Obama pretended he could commit the U.S. to further reductions. Between them, the U.S. and China account for about half of global human-caused carbon emissions. Due mostly to the surge from China and India, Canada’s share has fallen from two per cent to 1.5, which should help put all those “tar sands” protests into perspective. Days later, Environment Canada released its latest national emission statistics, an event ignored by most media. “Between 2005 and 2012, total Canadian GHG emissions decreased by 5.1 per cent, while the economy grew by 10.6 per cent over the same period,” the report states. B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak joined the throngs who jetted to Lima. There she met officials from California and other U.S. states to reannounce their modest efforts to put a price on carbon emissions. TV anchors and other wide-eyed innocents might have been left with the mis-
taken impression that the huge U.S. petroleum industry is cutting back, when in fact it has grown enormously thanks to shale oil and gas production. And California continues to produce, by its own state government measure, the most carbon-intensive heavy crude in North America. Overshadowing all of this is the drop in the world price of oil, mainly the result of Saudi Arabia flooding the market in an effort to push competitors out of business. In the latest sign of the U.S. public’s lack of interest in reducing emissions, sales of larger vehicles immediately spiked up as gasoline prices fell. I’m still receiving criticism for a recent column in which I declared myself an “agnostic” on human-caused global warming. Agnostic means searcher, and my search has continued for real signs of climate change and its potential causes. Our glaciers are receding, no question, but the current trend started around the 1850s, when a sport utility vehicle had one horsepower in leather harness and B.C. was about to be declared a British colony. But amid the noise, there is serious evidence being put forward that our province is undergoing a climate shift with major consequences. And there are calls for action. I’ll discuss that next week.

bad apples At this time of the year, there are many requests from charities of all sorts. Unfortunately, there are also some donation requests which are questionable at best and dishonest at worst. Each bogus request also makes fundraising more difficult for legitimate organizations. Before making a contribution, please take the time to find out about the organizations asking for a year-end donation.

Love and joy for Christmas

Gifts under the Christmas tree in the 1930s—a stylish hat, cozy quilt, and a pair of warm socks— thoughtful and appreciated, but perhaps not quite as appreciated as the little bundle huddling on the chair. He’s doing his best to blend into the background so he’s a bit hard to see, but the timid puppy will no doubt soon be happily embraced by his new best friend. Christmas love and joy for a child and a puppy with a promise of happy times together. And that’s what we at the museum wish for you: a Christmas filled with love and joy and a very happy New Year (puppy optional).
of this week nine Bills became law as Royal Assent was received on Bills C-45, S-211, S-5, C-483, C-442, C-428, C-43, C-525 and C-266. What are these new laws? Bill C-45 is a Government Bill and in this instance is an Appropriations Act. Bill S-5 is a Senate Bill – An Act to amend the Nááts’ihch’oh National Park Reserve Act. Bill C-43 is a Government Bill and also the Governments Economic Action Plan budget for 2014. A number of Private Members Bills also received Royal Assent. Bill C-483, An Act to amend the Corrections and Conditional Release Act. This act is an administrative one that transfers the authority to authorize a temporary escorted absence of a criminal convicted of first and second degree murder (within three years of full parole eligibility) to the Parole Board of Canada as opposed to a prison warden as is the current situation. Proponents of this bill have suggested there is greater accountability to victims when the Parole Board of Canada is the authorizing authority in these types of situations. Bill S-211 is The National Health and Fitness Day Act, sponsored by B.C. Senator Nancy Greene-Raine; it is a Private Member’s Bill first tabled in the Senate that designates the first Saturday in June as a day to promote increased participation in fitness and sports activities.
Ottawa RepORt
Dan Albas Bill C-442 was sponsored by BC MP and Green Party Leader Elizabeth May and is the Federal Framework on Lyme Disease Act – this is a bill I voted in support of and also heard strong support from a number of constituents across Okanagan-Coquihalla. Bill C-428 is the Indian Act Amendment and Replacement Act — and is the first private members bill passed by a First Nations MP in the history of the House of Commons. I voted in support of this bill. The final two bills passed this week were both private members bill as well. Bill C-525 is the Employees’ Voting Rights Act that provides for a democratic private ballot in matters of unionization and de-certification under federal jurisdiction. Finally Bill C-266, the Pope John Paul II Day Act, designates that April 2 of each year be recognized as Pope John Paul II Day – this bill does not propose that April 2 would be a holiday but rather a day to recognize some of the achievements of Pope John Paul II in promoting freedom and human rights. Some of these bill
were strongly supported by all sides of the House of Commons while others were only supported by a small majority of votes. From my perspective while it is often disagreement that most defines the House of Commons the fact that a First Nations MP and also the leader of the Green Party with a caucus of just two Members of Parliament have introduced private members bills that have become law is evidence of the fact that diversity and debate remain healthy and vibrant in our Canadian Parliament. At times there will always be disagreement but across party lines there can also be consensus as Members of Parliament do work together in support on common areas of concern. While it is often common to focus on the challenges and conflicts it should not be forgotten that collectively over the years our Parliamentary democracy, in spite of the many flaws and shortcomings has consistently helped to create the great country of Canada. It has been a privilege to represent the good people of Okanagan-Coquihalla over this past session that has also been a very productive one. I welcome your comments, questions and concerns on matters before the House of Commons. I can be reached at Dan.Albas@ parl.gc.ca or toll free at 1-800-665-8711. Dan Albas is the MP for Okanagan Coquihalla.
B.C.’s wildlife resource is not for sale Dear Editor: As a B.C. resident and avid hunter I was shocked to learn about the Guide-Outfitters Association of British Columbia’s proposal to reduce my hunting opportunities in favour of foreign big game trophy hunters. Like many British Columbians, I rely on hunting to feed my
family, so this proposal basically takes food out of our freezer. Over the years, there’s been steady erosion in the number of hunting permits granted to British Columbians. More than 70,000 B.C. hunters apply for 13,000 lottery licenses to hunt moose annually, so only one in
five hunters gets to hunt moose every year. Most provinces and U.S. states limit foreign hunters to five to 10 per cent of wild game allocation. But the GuideOutfitters Association of B.C. is pushing to increase that limit to 25 to 40 per cent in B.C., which is unprecedented in
North America. There has to be a reasonable balance between residents’ access to hunting to provide organic, wild meat for their families and foreign trophy hunters desire to pursue wild game in this province. I would like to see a fair wildlife hunting allocation with 90
per cent going to British Columbians and 10 per cent going to foreign trophy hunters and the outfitters
who guide them. I encourage all British Columbians to write their local MLA and let them know
that B.C.’s wildlife is a public resource and not for sale. Brian Fodey Penticton

Provincial cabinet restructured Virk shuffled to new job after Kwantlen flap by Tom Fletcher Black Press VICTORIA – Premier Christy Clark has moved embattled cabinet minister Amrik Virk out of his advanced education ministry role
as the government wrapped up its probe into unauthorized signing bonuses for new executives at Kwantlen Polytechnic University. Virk trades cabinet jobs with Vancouver-Quilchena MLA Andrew Wilkinson, who was serving as technology, innovation and citizens’ ser-
vices minister. The announcement came Thursday, after the government released the latest results of a probe of the Kwantlen hirings. Virk was an inspector with the Langley RCMP and volunteer Kwantlen board member before being elected MLA for Surrey-Tynehead last year. In November, the NDP produced emails that contradicted Virk’s claim he was not involved in a decision to get around B.C. salary guidelines for university executives. Virk said he forgot about an email
exchange where he proposed a research allowance for thenUniversity of Regina dean of business Ann Lavack for the position of vice-president academic at Kwantlen. B.C. public service pay rules limited the position to $170,000 a year, and Lavack took the job in 2011 with a $20,000 research allowance and a $50,000 “consulting fee” that were not reported to provincial officials. Clark also announced three new cabinet assistant appointments. o Peace River
South MLA Mike Bernier takes a new position as parliamentary secretary for “energy literacy and the environment,” reporting to Environment Minister Mary Polak. o North Vancouver-Seymour MLA Jane Thornthwaite is parliamentary secretary for child mental health and anti-bullying, reporting to Children and Family Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux. o Penticton MLA Dan Ashton is parliamentary secretary to Finance Minister Mike de Jong.

Wednesday, December 24, 2014 Summerland Review
Site C dam work begins next summer Delay brings total cost estimate to $8.34 billion by Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government has given the go-ahead for BC Hydro to start construction on a third dam on the Peace River, with a delay of six months to try to work out settlements with area aboriginal communities and landowners whose properties will be flooded or cut off. Energy Minister Bill Bennett said Tuesday a review of construction costs upheld the $7.9 billion estimate for the Site C dam that was developed in 2010, but the overall price tag has risen. Delaying the project six months from its original start date adds inflation and interest costs, and calculating the effect of the provincial sales tax replacing the HST
brings the total to $8.34 billion. The province is establishing a “project reserve” of $440 million to bring the total estimated cost to $8.77 billion. The project reserve is in case of unforeseen events such as a rise in interest rates during the eightyear construction period. BC Hydro CEO Jessica McDonald said the six-month delay provides time to work out compensation agreements with Treaty 8 First Nations who have declined settlement offers. The federal-provincial environmental review panel gave the go-ahead for the project in May, but noted its unavoidable impacts on aboriginal hunting, fishing and trapping rights that are assured by the 1899 treaty. A group of Peace valley landowners has already started legal action against the project, having
refused offers from BC Hydro to buy their land. Aboriginal groups in Alberta, downstream of the project, have also started court action against it. NDP leader John Horgan called the decision “a $9 billion gamble” and repeated his call for a review by the B.C. Utilities Commission to see if the additional power is going to be needed by the time the dam is operating in 2025. The BCUC will determine BC Hydro rates in the years ahead, and how much they will go up to pay for the most expensive public construction project in B.C. history. The government plans to mitigate BC Hydro rate impact by reducing the dividend the government takes from the power company’s operations each year. Bennett said a review of alternative clean energy sources,
including wind, solar and geothermal
power, showed they can’t compete on
price because they are intermittent sources
that would require backup power.

Movie night helps SPCA
A class effort
Students in Traci Steves’ Grade 7 classroom at Summerland Middle School raised $650 for muscular dystrophy through the sale of apples. Steves is in the second row of the picture. Billy Boerboom of Windmill Garden Centre, in the second row, supplied the apples and donated all proceeds from the fundraiser. Standing at right is Darryl Tenisci, vice-principal of the middle school.
B.C. wines to come to grocery stores by Jeff Nagel Black Press The province’s latest liquor reform will make it easier for wine stores to relocate into grocery stores – provided they offer only B.C. wines – but there’s no sign the government is rethinking its change to wholesale wine pricing that will sharply drive up the price of more expensive bottles. Friday’s announcement by Justice Minister Suzanne Anton in Langley at Chaberton Estate Winery is being hailed by B.C. wineries because some supermarkets that can begin selling wine come April will be barred from stocking foreign wines. Under the change, existing VQA and independent wine stores can relocate or transfer their licence to an eligible grocery store as long as 100 per cent B.C. wine is sold. Those licence transfers won’t be limited by a rule that disallows new outlets if there’s an existing one within one kilometre. Liquor policy reform leader John Yap called it a “win-
ning combination” to allow grocery shoppers to also buy B.C. wine and support the local industry. “The B.C. wine industry is entering into a new era of winemaking,” added Chaberton co-owner Eugene Kwan.
The new model is different from the store-within-astore model in that it allows B.C. wine to be on regular grocery store shelves and shoppers would pay for it at designated registers staffed by trained employees
who are at least 19. Anton said a limited number of new licences – she would not specify how many – will be made available to sell just B.C. wine in grocery stores. The extra licences will mean more
competition for private wine stores that have already been critical of some of the province’s liquor reforms. Vancouver lawyer Mark Hicken, who acts for wine industry clients, predicts there will be “no takers” on
wine stores relocating under the new B.C.only model because they would lose most of their international product lines. Hicken said the B.C.-only rule may violate Canada’s international trade agreements.
A sparselyattended fundraiser at Centre Stage Theatre on Tuesday, Dec. 16 raised $400 for the Penticton SPCA. The Summerland Secondary School Civics 11 class hosted a Christmas movie Fred Claus, which attracted fewer than 50 spectators. “The attendance was lacking, but the people there were very generous,” said Megan Avery, a civics student. Movie tickets, a 50/50 draw, a food/ drink concession and donations all were contributors to the total raised. “We raised about $10 per person,” said student Palvi Bhardwaj. Teacher Dave Stathers said newly fallen snow on the roads that evening likely kept some people away.

ALLEN CAMERON MCKILLOP
Born August 9. 1927 in Dauphin Manitoba and died peacefully December 16, 2014 in Summerland BC. Al was raised on the family farm during the depression years and grew up with an intense curiosity for all things in life. When the farm was converted to an Allied Forces training facility during the Second World War he learned how to fly during his early teens. This experience led him into a brief career with the first undercover drug squad of the RCMP and many colourful tales evolved. After leaving the RCMP Al married Peggy Steuart in Summerland in 1953. The couple traveled and worked in the Southern US for a year or two and eventually settled into a steady job in Drayton Valley, Alberta. After many years of holidays in Summerland they purchased a lot in 1965 and eventually retired to their final home in 1980. After some overseas contract work Al retired permanently in his late fifties and was thereafter frequently seen riding around Summerland on a small yellow scooter with a bag full of dog treats, Al was a friendly and colourful character with an easy laugh and a big smile. A survivor of four plane crashes, numerous motor cycle accidents, a blown aortic aneurysm and a quadruple bypass, Al did his best to tempt fate. In the end he passed quietly and was very much ready to go. Al loved music and was gifted with a talent to pick almost any instrument and begin to play. He had a lovely baritone voice and participated in many bands and choirs during his life. A boyhood fascination with trains led to a lifelong hobby with model railroading. He loved skiing and swimming and was always willing to step forward to volunteer his time to assist with community events. Al was cared for, catered to and coddled in his final years by the wonderful staff at Summerland Seniors Village for whom he always had a kind word and was very grateful. He was always treated with respect and kindness and he truly enjoyed living there. Al was predeceased by his wife Peggy, 6 years ago and is survived by Jim & Patricia McKillop and Marian and Ross Plewman as well as his four grandchildren Jayme & Justin, Joey & Sandy, Patrick and Peter and his two great grandsons Cyrus and Nico. He is also survived by his sister Wilma Lewis and many nieces and nephews. “Uncle Al� is fondly remember by many and will be missed. A gathering in memory of Al will be held at the family property in Summerland in the summer of 2015. Those wishing to contact the family can reach Jim at jim.mckillop@gmail.com. “Touched You Last�

A career in advertising sales
y
by Carla McLeod Special to the Review After almost 24 years at the Summerland Review, Jo Freed has retired from her job as advertising manager. She was raised in Summerland and also raised her own children here. “I wanted to work here in Summerland,” she said. “I’ve always loved this town.” She applied at the Summerland Review in 1991 and was hired as a front office employee. Within a year she had moved into sales and has been selling advertising for the paper ever since. “I’ve always been passionate about my job,” she said. “I’ve never considered doing anything else because I’ve always enjoyed what I’ve been doing.” Over the years Freed has built up many long-term relationships with those in the business community. She has taken the time to get to know her clients and learn about their businesses and the products that they offer. In so doing, she has been able to know how to best feature and promote them. Her goal was to showcase local businesses so people would not feel it was necessary to leave town to buy things. “If you don’t support the businesses that have chosen to set up here, because they love this community, you’re not going to have that business around anymore,” she explained. “I’ve seen that over the years.” Freed enjoyed the challenge of coming up with new ideas and promotions, always looking for a way to “change things up a little bit.” She also enjoyed doing special features on the different clubs and organizations in the community as well as the agricultural industry. “I’ve always enjoyed my clients. That’s the one thing I liked the most about my job,” she explained. “My clients are the ones that always kept me motivated and happy to come to work every day.” As the advertising manager she also knew the important role that advertising played in the production of any printed page. “Advertising is what keeps our paper going,” she said. “You can’t have a paper without it.” Over the years at the Review, she has seen many

Jo Freed cuts the cake at her retirement party on Dec. 17. For almost 24 years, she has played a role in advertising at the Summerland Review.
changes. She has worked for three different owners and many different staff members. “Staff changes happen all the time,” she said. “John (Arendt) is the only one that’s been here for 20 years. It’s the longest I’ve ever worked with anyone.” None of the changes have mattered to Freed. What’s important to her is, “the fact that it’s still the Summerland Review. It’s a community newspaper. We concentrate on our community,” she said. Even though she has been busy working full time, she still found time to be involved with local clubs and organizations, such as the Summerland Trail Riders Association and the Kettle Valley Steam Railway. She and her husband Mike were instrumental in starting the Garnett Valley Gang. In the future she wants to pick and choose what she wants to do and when she wants to do it. “I’m looking forward to doing things that I never had time to do, or should have made time for and never did,”
she said. “I want to travel and visit my kids and grandkids and they live all over the world.” She would also like to get back into playing the piano, which she hasn’t done since taking lessons as a teenager. The outpouring of messages that she has received since announcing her retirement has been a surprise for Freed. “I’ve had so many emails coming in from people that are congratulating me and saying we’re going to miss you, it overwhelms me at times,” she said. “It’s so nice to know I have been appreciated, because I have appreciated the people I’ve dealt with too.” She is glad that she is able to retire now while she is still able to do things, recognizing the fact that one never knows how long one has. She plans to live life fully. “I love my community! I love being here and I always have. I’m going to enjoy what this town has to offer me, during my retirement years,” she concluded.
Happy Holidays Thanks for all your support in 2014.
