Residents work to replace Marcel’s bottle loss Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller Marcel Robinson is a comforting ﬁxture in Drumheller. He is always at sporting events or any other gathering in the valley with a black plastic bag in hand. Most of the time he is watching, and chatting with young and old alike. He is also picking up the occasional bottle. In fact, bottles are his main source of income. That is what made it even more upsetting when Glenda Wright learned that someone had taken a collection of Marcel’s bottles he had ready to drop at the depot. “I learned on Facebook that a large number of bottles he had been collecting were taken,” said Wright. “I don’t know Marcel very well but I have met him sev-

I attended an information meeting in Hanna last week, and now I am afraid for the future of my province, should the present government remain in power. Keith Wilson, a lawyer and a man who has studied these things for over a year, presented the information regarding the “Alberta Land Bills.” The term refers to Bills 19, 24, 36 and 50. These were all brought into the provincial legislature and voted unanimously into law by the members of the 40 year old Progressive Conservative Party. (Remember this at voting time). There is a theme to these bills which interlocks them one to the other, the combination of which concentrates absolute power into the Progressive Conservative Cabinet. You know what is said about absolute power. It corrupts absolutely. In this province we have something called the Expropriation Act. It is in place to see that you are treated fairly, and fairly compensated should your land be taken by the government for public use. The ﬁrst of the Land Bills, number 19, gives Cabinet the power to freeze your land, for whatever period of time it may choose. This freeze can be extended to your bank and municipality. What this means is that anything you may want to do with or on your land will re-

eral times and quite like him.” Indeed, Marcel explains, he did lose some bottles. He said that participants in slo-pitch at the ball diamond put aside their bottles for him to collect. However, before he could make the pick-up they were taken. Wright made a post on her Facebook status and started to collect bottles. She has amassed a fair amount, and other friends have collected bottles to help replace his loss. Last Friday morning, the bottles were delivered to Marcel. The generosity of friends added up to two truck loads of bottles. “I think everyone has experienced someone taking something that wasn’t theirs, and it is kind of nice to get a little help once in a while,” said Wright. quire written permission from the Minister of Infrastructure. All this with no resource to the courts and no compensation. Bill 19’s intent is to go around the Expropriation Act, so that government has taken away your right to be financially compensated when your land is taken for public use. Forget about court, because this bill and its siblings deny you that right also. Bottom line, you are prohibited from doing anything on your own land that might increase its value. Bill 24 was passed so that government might have a place to store the CO2 it’s going to spend $2-billion on capturing. In law, the surface owner owns from the surface to the center of the earth, excluding mines, minerals and water, but including all the porous spaces government might use to store CO2. Bill 24 neatly passes ownership of those spaces, formerly your property, to the government, on all private lands. Bill 36, crafted by Ted Morton (yes, he wants to be premier), is a bit of evil. This document gives the provincial cabinet minister complete authority over any decision affecting water leases, mineral rights, timber leases or grazing rights. Section 11 of the Act allows Cabinet to take those rights from you whenever, however, and for whatever reason Cabinet decides. Again, there is a restriction to financial compensation, and a removal of access to appeal to the courts. Just as they give themselves raises, so to have they made themselves the highest authority in the land! You may think that the preceding does not concern you, but only farmers, ranchers and landowners. The last, Bill 50 should disabuse you of any such idea. What Bill 50 does is take the decision making process out of the hands of the Alberta Utilities Commission, again putting it in

the hands of Cabinet. The Commission normally conducts a needs assessment to determine if a new power line is a public need or merely a company want. Cabinet has all the powers you have been reading about, and now it has decided that Albertans need $16-billion worth of new transmission lines. Here’s the kicker. The Alberta government requires all Albertans to pay ATCO and AltaLink the full cost of construction of the new power lines, and then gives these companies full ownership and guarantees 9% rate of

return and they send you a nice monthly power bill. Sweet deal! This Progressive (Regressive?) Conservative government wants complete control over your life, and the “Alberta Land Bills” go a long way to achieving that. In Communist Russia, it was called central planning. Remember that four of the six candidates, (excluding Mar and Orman) seeking the leadership of the PC party, voted for these bills, and helped bring them into law. Do you want this kind of government? I don’t. Chip Aiello

Have you ever had the opportunity to watch a cattle dog or a sheep dog work a herd or a flock? I’ve never really seen a cattle dog at work, but I’ve seen sheep dogs do their thing. It’s only been on television of course, but even so, it was a real joy to see. These animals are born with a herding instinct, and are taught commands that control and direct their instinct. They react to voice, whistle and hand signals. So good are they, that sometimes it appears they have made their move ahead of the shepherds command. And energy. These dogs run all day, back and forth, checking a stray, confronting an aggressive animal, keeping up with men on horses. In fact I have been told that one man on horseback, and a good cattle dog can move a small heard as efficiently as three or four men on horseback. Skill, energy, intelligence, and companionship, all for a bowl of dog chow, a bowl of water and a pat on the back. You can’t afford to buy help like that. A friend of mine (the guy who makes appointments whenever I need my car serviced) sent me this, and I found it kinda funny. • Youth today have it easy, much easier than we did when we were their age (my friend and I are both over 40). They don’t know how good they have it. It’s a freaking utopia. • We had no internet, because there were no computers. You wanted to know something, or look up something, you walked to the library, took out a book, and actually turned a page. • No computer, no email. You had to actually write to someone with a pen and paper. Then you had to walk to the post office to mail, and wait, sometimes for days, for a reply. Can you imagine! • X-box, Blackberry, Mp3? You had to use your imagination, and if you wanted to download music, forget about it. If you wanted to steal music, you went to the music store and shoplifted it yourself. CD’s? Try 8 track tapes, the tape of which had a habit of coming unravelled, making it pretty much useless. • “Call waiting” Ha! You waited alright, until one call was finished, and another could be received. • You were told to play outside, all day. No electronic gizmos to soothe and confront. Go inside and you do chores. Youth today are living in an easy, breezy world, the same one our parents thought we inhabited when we were young, and the same one their parents thought they inhabited when they were young.

Odd summer weather aﬀects tourism Lori Coules | inSide Drumheller

Tourism in Drumheller may have taken a slight dip, but is not a cause for concern say area operators. The opinion given from the tourist attractions in the valley is the un-seasonal weather in early July may have played a part in the decrease in the numbers of tourists. The World's Largest Dinosaur (WLD) had 16,781 visitors between July 1 and July 17 of this year. “We are down a little compared to last year, but we feel there’s no cause for concern,” explained Kathy Little, Drum-

heller and District Chamber of Commerce Manager. Little said the slight drop could be seen when the Passion Play was running; weather also had an eﬀect on their numbers. “Crews from CTV were at the dinosaur on July 15 for the ﬁlming of a commercial promo for the London 2012 Summer Olympics,” said Little. Overall it's a positive improvement for July at the WLD. The Royal Tyrrell Museum is holding pretty strong, but had a slight decrease in visitors due to the unusual sum-

The Tyrrell is working with the Drumheller Marketing Organization (D.M.O.) to attract visitors on-line with promotions and mobile advertising with links to the Tyrrell’s website. “We are working on attracting northern Alberta, drawing from the Edmonton area,” said acting director of Exhibits and Communications Lisa Making. Southern Alberta travellers are doing more day trips to the museum. The Atlas Coal Mine is celebrating the Mining Centennial.

provided an outreach program for youth and it's been cool to see them back with their parents, Jay Russell commented.

“This is truly an amazing thing,” she said. Marcel Augey, who coordinates activities at Sunshine Lodge, said the new gazebo gives residents more opportnity to enjoy the outdoors. It provides shelter from the sun and is screened in to protect from insects.

The Drumheller Valley is a unique, scenic valley, created by millions of years of erosion by wind and water. About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the hot tropical swamps and forests that covered this area. Today, the fossilized remains of the dinosaurs can be seen in museums all over the world, and the lush vegetation exists as coal seams throughout the area. The Valley was first inhabited by Thomas Greentree, who, in 1902, built his homestead on what is now the Town of Drumheller. The Greentree House became a stop-over place for early pioneers coming into the district. It was Sam Drumheller who first exploited rich coal reserves

in the area and conceived the idea of a townsite in the Valley. Jesse Gouge opened the first coal mine in 1911. In 1913, the Calgary-Drumheller railway line was opened and the coal industry boomed. More than 40 mines were soon operating in the Valley. Mining towns like Nacmine (short for North American Collieries Mine), Midlandvale, Rosedale, East Coulee, Wayne, and Newcastle developed notorious reputations as highrolling boomtowns with bootlegging and gambling. When gas and oil were discovered in other parts of Alberta, the importance of coal diminished and the economy of the Valley turned to other things.

Here’s how it works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Horoscopes ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Travel is in your immediate future, Aries. You just won't be sure yet if it will be a long trip or a day just to get away from it all. Regardless, it'll involve family, too.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 It's alright to take other's advice once in a while, Libra. You don't always have to march to the beat of a different drummer. Think about this in the next few days.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Start putting your money where your mouth is, Taurus. There's only so long a person can keep stringing along others. Sooner or later your time will be up.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, there's so much going on daily that it's easy for you to feel scatterbrained and make mistakes. It's definitely hard to focus when there is confusion.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, it's time to make up your mind about an important decision that's going to effect others. The next few weeks will be extra busy, so start preparing.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, a relationship is strained and you are asked to mediate the situation. Don't get too excited about being a referee, though. It comes with much responsibility.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, you are in a festive mood and you don't really know how you are going to celebrate. Others are willing to join the party if you let them participate.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, you need a break from things but don't know what the break will be just yet. Start jotting down ideas that will relax your mind and your body.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 You haven't been feeling like yourself lately, Leo. Others have noticed the change in your demeanor and have questioned it. Things will subside shortly.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, things are about to heat up and you may feel overwhelmed in the next few days. Don't let your temper get the better of you or it could lead to more stress.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, avoid making any big changes in the next few days. Your personal life is about to undergo a big change, and you will have a lot of choices to consider.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, bide your time because change is on the horizon. Events that unfold will not be what you expected.

Aquaplex enjoying summer students Lori Coultes | inSide Drumheller

With water splashing in all directions, you’ll hear children yell to their parents with huge smiles on their faces: “Did you see me? I did it!” The Drumheller Aquaplex has had no problem with the wet weather this summer. Classes at the Aquaplex have seen a great increase in enrolment for children this year. The instructors have taught 55 preschool children and helped to build their skills and conﬁdence in the water. The Swim Kids program had an average of 80 kids attending, keeping instructors busy in and out of the pool. These summer classes operate with a combined staﬀ of 25 high school and university students helping with the lessons. Maureen Russell, a grand-

ma from Drumheller, says her three grandsons come from Vancouver for the summer and choose only to take swimming lessons at the Aquaplex. “The kids just love the instructors here and it's a wonderful facility,” replied Russell. Patrons new and old have been able to enjoy swimming lessons and achieve new levels in their swimming skills. Ann Wade credits her staﬀ, saying, “I have an amazing staﬀ and I’m so thankful to have them.” While the usage for both indoor and outdoor pools has seen equal use throughout the summer, the indoor pool will be closed on September 6 for draining and painting, but the outdoor pool will remain open for everyone to enjoy.

Paella is one of my favorite dishes to serve a crowd. Because there are so many different items included, it is easy to please various people because they can simply pick out what they like and what they may dislike. I didn’t put the amounts of meats and fish because I adjust according to how many people I plan to serve.

Enclosed within each patch is one microcapsule that holds eucalyptus citriodora and citronella essential oils.

The antimosquito patch, when squeezed, releases a pleasant fragrance that repels mosquitoes and other flying insects.

Works within 10 minutes and lasts for up to 8 hours. Adhesive backing allows the patch to adhere to most surfaces such as clothing, baby strollers, outdoor furniture, tables, hats, bags, etc. Not a transdermal patch. No contact between essential oils and the skin makes the patch totally safe, harmless and suitable for children.

Add: 1 can diced tomato 4 cups uncooked rice mussels and clams 1 ½ cups frozen peas 1 cup white wine 8 cups chicken broth A couple threads of saffron

Ideal for the whole family!
