BOOK REVIEW

by Annelise Grube-Cavers

A Short History of Progress by Ronald Wright

This little book by Ronald Wright is packed with interesting information.

The pending disasters of our current times - weather variation resulting in droughts, floods and rising oceans seem unique to a kind of industrialized society that is shifting the earth beneath our feet. Knocking it out of balance.

In this book Wright talks about other civilizations’ and the impacts of their ‘progress.’ If the ultimate implications of progress lead to disaster, how should we be conceptualizing this idea? One example he provides is of Sumer, a part of the cradle of civilization in Mesopotamia.

There a large civilization prospered, until they over-extended their irrigation and deforestation, resulting in massive desertification of the land. It is shocking to think of civilizations enduring these problems 5,000 years ago, and today the Colorado river no longer reaches the Sea of Cortez.

A fascinating book that asks questions important to each person and to society as a whole.

Visitor Profiles: Non Profits

by Blair Acton

Cam is visiting Canada from New Zealand. He was chairing a conference in Vancouver on International P o l i c y G ov e r n a n c e for nonprofits.

He extended his trip so he could travel t h r o u g h BC to the Rockies. He overnighted in the Shuswap on his way to Lake Louise.

Volunteering for non-profits groups can be very rewarding.

Some local non-profits are the Rotary, Lions, Chase Recreation, Chase Museum, Adam’s River S a l m o n S o c i e t y, and various sports from curling, hockey, baseball and soccer.

If you have some spare time join up with a local group. They would greatly appreciate help.

Blair Acton runs the Squilax General Store & Hostel.

Amy’s Rhubarb Cake Other diced fruit such as apples, apricots, plums, or currants can be substituted (can reduce sugar depending on sweetness of fruit used).

Village of Chase - Water Usage Do you ever consider how fortunate we are living in Chase? Not only do we have beautiful climate, affordable cost of living and good medical services, we have very good quality water.

In most municipalities in Canada, the average person uses about 234 gallons of water per day (7000 gallons per month) including water usage for outdoor irrigation.

On June 28, 2015, the water consumption in the Village of Chase was 4831.8 cubic litres of water – that’s 1,062,996 gallons or 409 gallons per person. If each day’s consumption were even 300 gallons per person, our monthly usage would be 9000 gallons per day. Okay, so the temperature on June 28, 2015 was 39 degrees celcius for the bulk of the day – but get this, of those 1,062,996 gallons, only 132,000 gallons went into our sewer system –

Add ingredients in order, but alternate the flour and milk.

black in 1/2 cup shortening Substitute sour te tas ich wh currants, (butter, oil, lard, etc.) lth hea of LL FU ht rig are but 1 cup sugar benefits 1 egg 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups flour (using at least 1 cup of wholewheat, khorasan, or spelt flour adds taste & nutrition) 1 cup sour milk (or yogurt or buttermilk, or milk with a teaspoon of cider vinegar added) 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 cups diced rhubarb 9” x 13” greased baking pan (or 10” round pan) Topping: 1/4 cup sugar with 1 to 2 teaspoon cinnamon-sprinkle on top of batter in pan.

Bake about 30 to 40 min. at 350. Great with yogurt or ice cream.

that’s 12% of the water being distributed to everyone in Chase that was actually used by the people - the rest, 88% of the water distributed, went onto the ground. So really, we used over 1 million gallons of water, but only 132,000 for ourselves (51 gallons per person).

According to Scott’s (yes, the lawn fertilizer folks), your lawn only needs about ½ inch of water twice per week.

Typically it only takes between 15 and 30 minutes to apply this much water to your lawn.

We anticipate that once people start having to pay for the amount of water they use, that consumption will reduce.

Please consider how fortunate we are to have such great water, and consider conserving water so we will have it for a long time to come!

The Free Hugs Campaign is a social movement involving individuals who offer hugs to strangers in public places. The hugs are meant to be random acts of kindness to make others feel better. International Free Hugs Month is celebrated on the first Saturday of July and continues until August first. The movement was started in ‘04 by an Australian known as Juan Mann. The word Hug probably comes from the Old Norse hugga, “to comfort.” Hugs boost our happiness levels, according to scientific research.

A good hug is the fastest way to get oxytocin, aka “the love drug”, flowing in your body.

Oxytocin calms your nervous system and boosts positive emotions. It lowers your blood pressure, especially helpful if you’re feeling anxious, and it lowers your cortisol (the stress hormone) levels.

National Bowlers do Chase proud!

It was just a week ago that the Village Lanes Ladies Team went to Toronto to compete at the National Championships! The team consisting of Kristyne McCoy, Sandra Coates, Karen Dennis, Ali Maki, and Linda Woodford, had a great time in Toronto, and did Village Lanes, Chase, and British Columbia proud!

The first day of the competition, the ladies started off like a house on fire, nearly sweeping two of their first three matches.

As the day went on, the competition got more and more fierce.

The ladies ended up sitting in 5th place after the first day of competition. Unfortunately, the second day was a larger struggle than

Submitted by Village Lanes anticipated. When the National Championships were all said and done, the ladies took home 7th place in the Country. “They did absolutely everything they could. They were pounding the middle, and getting no breaks in their favor. Lots of corner pins, lots of headpins, and very few strikes,” explained Calyn Buresh, manager of Village Lanes, who escorted the team to Nationals. Along with Calyn; Sandra and Karen’s three sisters surprised the ladies by showing up in Toronto to cheer on the team. “We are all so proud of how these

women represented our centre. It was Village Lanes’ first time sending a team to the Nationals, and now we are prepared for next year!” For further tournament results, go online to www.bowlcanada.ca.
