MS Society of Canada to host CCSVI Information Session The Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada, Kamloops and Area Chapter has invited the National CCSVI (Chronic Cerebro Spinal Venous Insufficiency) Society to host a CCSVI information session in Kamloops, BC. This informative afternoon session will provide patients, caregivers, and the general public with the latest information on CCSVI and its relationship to Multiple Sclerosis and other neurological diseases. CCSVI describes a theory in which portions of the venous system (the body’s network of large and small veins) in the head and neck are narrowed or blocked and therefore unable to efficiently remove blood from the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system). The term was coined by Dr. Paolo Zamboni. following findings about an apparent association between CC-
SVI and MS in June 2008, following a study of 65 patients. NCS Board members will present current CCSVI research. The speakers will also be available for questions and answers following their panel presentations. Admission is by donation to the Kamloops and Area Chapter at the door; however, we request attendees pre-register for this event as there is limited seating. The session will be held at the Desert Gardens Community Centre, 540 Seymour Street in Kamloops. This location is fully accessible and has plenty of parking. Refreshments will be served. For more information about the local Kamloops and Area Chapter, or to register for this event call 250-314-0773 or email info.kamloops@mssociety.ca.
The Kamloops Film Society announced the Juried Prize winners for the 5th Kamloops Independent Short Short (KISS) Film Festival following a public screening held Thursday, May 17 at the Clocktower Auditorium at Thompson Rivers University. The “short short” in the KISS name connotes the temporal nature of the competition entries, which must be five minutes in duration or less. A 1st prize of $500 was awarded for “Supervillain” by Dusan Magdolen. Dusan, who has been submitting a short film in the KISS Competition for five years, took the top honour for the first time. The Echo’s own Editor, Jody Tippett, moonlighting as a filmmaker, earned herself $250 for her animation “So Long Holly” which took second place. Kelly Aulin placed third with his short titled, “Committee. A Youth Prize, for filmmakers 18 years and under, was awarded for “The Letter”, by Kora Vanderlip. Two Special Jury Prize were also awarded. The first for Mise En Scene went to Kora Vanderlip, for her arrangement of scenery, while a prize for editing was awarded to Igor Kostin for “Unbreakable”. Following the screenings, the audience had the opportunity to vote for their favourite and “Supervillain” was once again recognized. Igor Kostin and Bruno Mazzotta were each awarded the TNRD Short Film Award at the Kamloops Film Society’s Kamloops Independent Short Shorts (KISS) Film Festival. The prize, worth $150, was given to short films that best depict a place, person or attraction in the TNRD in an interesting and compelling way. “Kostin and Mazzotta should be commended for their original, and very different, takes on what they find fascinating about the Thompson-Nicola Regional District,” said Vicci Weller, Executive Director of the Thompson-Nicola Film Commission. A special mention went to Archie and Chayla Wilcox of Chase, who produced and directed the animated message film Under Pressure about the need to recycle to help save the planet. While the animation is cute and funny, and the film is an overall delight, the message is strong, according to Weller. The Kamloops Film Society stages an annual KISS competition, which is open to film entries from all independent filmmakers living in Kamloops and the surrounding region of Interior BC as part of its mission to support and encourage local filmmaking.
Shoes bound for Nicaragua go directly to people in need Kay Bingham Elementary School is spearheading a colossal shoe drive, that began on Monday, May 14 and runs through to Friday, June 15. All of the shoes collected will go directly to people in need in Nicaragua. Students have been learning about a small community in Nicaragua and gaining an understanding of challenges that face these citizens each day. The small village of Jiquillilo has been ravaged by
civil war, decimated by a tsunami, and plagued by extreme poverty. It is the students’ hope to make a change in the world and deliver much needed shoes to those in need. All of the shoe donations will be personally delivered by members of the Kamloops community bound for Nicaragua. Kay Bingham Elementary will be making their drive for shoe donations as public as they can and would definitely appreciate your support! Please
individually network with people you know and donate as many shoes as you can get your hands on. Make this a huge success for Kay Bingham Elementary School and Nicaragua! Shoe Drop Off for the general public will be at Kay Bingham Elementary, 950 Southill Street, next to the road, at the end of the large field with no playground equipment.

Bike to Work BC Society and ICBC would like to make sure that you and your coworkers are equipped with the appropriate safe cycling information to make Bike to Work Week enjoyable for everyone. Before you ride 1. Maintain your bicycle in good working order: Make sure that your tires are inflated to the pressure indicated on its sidewall. Check your brakes to ensure they are responsive. Clean and lubricate your chain and all moving parts of your bike so that it will respond quickly and safely when you are on the road. 2. Learn the skills needed to control your
bike: Practice hand signals, shoulder checking, riding in a straight line, navigating around obstacles or bollards, and braking quickly in a safe environment like a parking lot or quiet street before you Bike to Work Week is a province-wide event supported by the Province of BC. Kamloops is one of over 20 BC communities participating in 2012 Bike to Work Week through Bike to Work BC, a non-profit organization dedicated to encouraging people to cycle to work for fun, health and to lessen our impact on the environment.

BLSC founder wins national award
Dr. Gordon Gore, a wellknown local educator, author and founder of the very popular Big Little Science Centre on Holt Avenue, has received the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada “NSERC Awards for Science Promotion”. The annual award honours individuals who make outstanding contributions to the promotion of science in Canada, encouraging popular interest in science or developing science abilities. This is one of many honours given to this distinguished educator. He is a prior recipient of an award of BC Science Teacher of the Year, the Science Teachers’ Distinguished Service Award and the BC Association of Physics Teachers Lifetime Award. In addition he has received the BC Lieutenant Governor’s Award, the Order of British Columbia and was awarded an honorary Doctor of Letters degree from Thompson Rivers University in 2007. Dr. Gore obtained a B.Sc. in chemistry and physics from McGill University and a M.Ed. degree from UBC. Until his retirement he taught in BC, mostly in the Kamloops area, at high school and college level. His philosophy of a ‘handson’ approach as the most effective way of teaching and education of students, led to the formation of the Big Little Science Centre in 2000. This is an important and popular educational resource and tourist destination in the Southern Interior and Dr. Gore is still a primary contributor to its programmes.
Do farmed salmon need to be monitored for hanky panky? To BC Salmon Farmers Association A few weeks ago I saw you respond negatively to a letter asking for independent testing of your farmed salmon. Now 2 of your farms have tested positive for the highly contagious IHN virus, resulting in the ordered killing of your stocks. Without any proof you place the blame of your outbreaks entirely on wild fish, while deceptively proclaiming IHN won’t harm wild salmon. Those studies you
quote were done on adult salmon, yet you don’t mention numerous studies showing IHN to be deadly to juvenile wild salmon, you know, the innocent ones now swimming past your filthy infected farms. While worlds leading labs are confirming a myriad of “European strain” diseases from store bought BC farmed salmon, you not only deny those findings as well, but arrogantly still refuse independent testing! This has many of us questioning your ethics or lack thereof.
Since your main argument with independent lab results is about “foul play” or “contamination” why don’t you accompany your fish to the lab, just to make sure there’s no hanky panky going on? If your fish are as squeaky clean as you claim then there should be no problem. The public and wild salmon deserve to know! Angela Koch, Quadra Island (or fish farm central as the locals like to call it)

After 40 years in the same location, 228 Tranquille Road, Robo Car Wash is a fixture on the North Shore. The business was started in the early 70’s by a group of business men from Kelowna. At that time, the business was a Texaco franchise and the automatic car wash used original touchless technology out of the U.S. Current owner Rob Phillips bought the business in1980. The wash was converted to a hand wash soon after opening. Rob remarks “In Canada, our cars are subject to harsher conditions than the southern states where the original car wash equipment was effective in getting cars clean. We have more than thin coatings of dust or dirt to deal with. The touchless technology in the 70’s was not advanced enough to get our vehicles clean enough, to really clean your car you need to gently add some friction to the process”.
