stopping it for the sake of stopping it. There are solutions and we just wanted more time to develop those.” The Yale First Nation Treaty was ratified in the provincial legislature June 2 despite the joint opposition of the Sto:lo Tribal Council and the Sto:lo Nation, bodies that represent thousands of Sto:lo in the area who are concerned they will lose access to the so-called Five Mile Fishery in the Fraser Canyon. At Tuesday’s Aboriginal Day celebrations, attendees were
ayor Sharon Gaetz said the city was taken by surprise when a new medical clinic in Chilliwack opened this week with a focus on medical marijuana. Operating out of a Yale Road office near Five Corners, the Be Kind Medical Clinic opened in Chilliwack this week. A Craigslist posting states that the clinic will employ medical doctors, a doctor of chinese medicine, and a pharmacist. The ad says that the clinic’s medical team will meet with prospective patients and assist those who qualify with obtaining a card that allows them to access medical marijuana. The posting also says that the clinic will house a gathering place for patients and a “compassion club” to allow members to access medical marijuana. The clinic’s management politely declined a request to comment, citing a desire to first meet with the RCMP. Gaetz said representatives for the clinic told city hall that their enterprise would be a “health careslash-medicine business.” That type of business is permitted in the zone in question. But the city wasn’t told that the business would be focused on medical marijuana. “They neglected to mention

Do You Suffer from High Cholesterol ? A
ccording to reports from Health Canada, cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in Canada. Several risk factors may lead to heart disease, but one of the highest risk factors is high blood cholesterol.
Cholesterol is important - but it has been proven that having too much cholesterol in the bloodstream can contribute to narrowing of the arteries. If you can manage your cholesterol, it can help you to maintain a healthier cardiovascular system. Sytrinol is a unique formula derived from natural citrus and palm fruit extracts. It combines polymeth-oxylated flavones (PMFs), plus heart healthy tocotrienols. This natural combination effectively promotes healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Lower LDL cholesterol (in particular) and lower triglycerides levels are essential for strong
cardiovascular health.
Studies show that Sytrinol lowers your total cholesterol, levels, it lowers your LDL cholesterol (bad), and triglycerides. Sytrinol has also been shown to increase your (very important) HDL cholesterol (good) levels. Clinical studies of show...

Public rallies to replace car
BY ALYSSA NOEL The Province
W
hen Michael Didyk learned his friend’s basic insurance policy wouldn’t cover the cost of replacing her car that had been overturned and destroyed during last Wednesday’s riots, he turned to the Internet. Crystal Ratvay, a Chilliwack resident, was given the 1990 Cavalier by her aunt earlier that day because she was in desperate need of a vehicle to commute to the University of the Fraser Valley in Abbotsford. She and Didyk watched the Stanley Cup final—and its violent aftermath—
Chilliwack woman receives support from DJ after her vehicle destroyed in Stanley Cup riot
from his Homer Street apartment, but it wasn’t until the streets cleared that she went down to her parked car to discover it was ruined. “It affected me. I had to pay the consequences because the Canucks didn’t win the Stanley Cup? I had the car for a few hours and it cost me $120 to cancel the insurance,” she said, adding she didn’t know her newly purchased policy wouldn’t cover the damage until she called ICBC the next day. Didyk immediately began collect-
ing photos of the culprits destroying the car and posting them on Facebook in hopes that someone could identify them. Instead, there was an outpouring of support. “All of a sudden people were like, ‘How can we help her?’” he said. Las Vegas DJ Will Ramadan, a former Vancouver resident, was one of those people. He decided to turn his upcoming show at The Cellar nightclub in Vancouver June 27 into a fundraiser with all the proceeds from
the door going toward helping Ratvay buy a new car. “I still care very much about the city,” Ramadan, who performs as DJ Knowledge, said. “So many people are talking about the rioters and going after them. I don’t think there’s been enough attention on the victims.” Ratvay didn’t learn about the event until Monday night. “The funny thing is, I felt like nobody cared,” she said. “I’m so overwhelmed with emotion.”

Busy night for firefighters
BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com
T
he Chilliwack RCMP are investigating whether there’s a link between a string of fires and acts of vandalism overnight Monday, including one that damaged the roof of the A.D. Rundle middle school. Firefighters were first called to A.D. Rundle at 11:30 a.m. after a resident reported a fire on the roof of the school’s gymnasium. The fire, which was started with a gasolinesoaked wooden pallet and school textbooks, was doused before the flames could take hold in the roof. Assistant fire chief Ian Josephson said the school sustained minor water damage. But the firefighters’ busy night was just
starting. They were called to two dumpster fires over the next hour. One was started on McIntosh Avenue, near A.D. Rundle. The other was contained to a dumpster in the parking lot of Little Mountain elementary school. Little more than an hour later, police were called to the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, where thieves had smashed a large window in the rear of the building. A stone and two small plastic flare cases were found inside. Mounties say the window will cost around $2,500 to replace. And finally, firefighters were called to put out a fire that had taken hold in a Jeep Cherokee on Nixon Road in Rosedale. Police later determined that the vehicle had been stolen from a Chilliwack home that night. “The police are collectively looking at these files to determine if these incidents are related or not,” said RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Tammy Hollingsworth. “We would really appreciate help from the community to determine who is responsible for these fires and hold them accountable.”
Grad party attracts 300
A
Chilliwack man holding a graduation party for, he hoped, around 40 guests got a first-hand lesson on the power of social media when hundreds of teens showed up for his Friday night bash. Police say the man posted a notice for the party on Facebook. But instead of attracting a few dozen attendees, nearly 300 teenagers showed up at his Ford Road home. Police moved the teens on their way with
the help of several taxi cabs. The party was shut down, and the owner was co-operative with police, telling them that he had underestimated the power of Facebook. Mounties are urging people not to advertise their grad parties using social media, lest it get out of hand. They’re also taking the chance to remind local grads to celebrate in a responsible manner. - Staff

Councillor thankful it was him who came upon suicidal woman
BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com
C
hilliwack city councillor Stewart McLean had an experience he won’t soon forget on the way home from dinner with family members just before midnight on Easter Sunday. Rain was falling as McLean travelled north along Eagle Landing Parkway. He was stopped at the railway tracks by a passing train. His was the only car at the crossing where he saw a woman walking. And something looked wrong. “I realized she was wearing hospital pajamas and she had no shoes,” McLean told the Times. “She wanted

to jump on the tracks.” McLean certainly made an assumption with that conclusion, but the woman’s behaviour was unusual enough that he got out of the car and called 911. Then he asked her if she was OK. “I said ‘Do you have a problem?’ and right away she said, ‘Tell the nurse I had to do it,’” McLean said. “She was trying to walk towards the tracks and the train was already coming through.” So McLean stood between the woman and the train until help came. The RCMP had already been called by staff at Chilliwack General Hospital where the woman had walked away from the psychiatric unit. Cpl. Tammy Hollingsworth of the Chilliwack RCMP confirmed a possibly suicidal woman reportedly walked away from CGH that night and was picked up by Mounties and returned to the hospital. For McLean, the incident was disturbing, more so because he said he overheard that this had happened a couple of days prior with the same woman.

90 per cent of people who take their own lives have depression, substance-use problems or another mental disorder. McLean said his experience with a presumably suicidal woman would have been traumatic for most people, but because of his background—prior to owning a funeral home he was a rehab counsellor for nearly 20 years—he was OK. “I’m just really glad it was me that happened to come along,” he said. “A lot of people would have been afraid to approach her. A lot of people wouldn’t even have opened the window of the vehicle, but I could see what was going on. “It hit me afterwards, this was 11:45 p.m., what if I hadn’t been there?”

worldwide. Suicide is now among the three leading causes of death among those aged 15 to 44 years (both sexes); these figures do not include suicide attempts which are up to 20 times more frequent than completed suicides. ◗ Both the stigma attached to suicide and the likelihood that some deaths classified as “accidents” are actually suicides, contribute to an overall underestimate of the true number of suicides each year.

◗ Opinion
Get a move on to this party Psssst. Have you heard? I’m holding a party the night before Canada Day. All of Chilliwack is invited. I know what you’re thinking: What’s Canada Day Eve and how can I celebrate it in style? I’m glad you asked. Canada Day Eve is the day before Canada Day. It’s a wholesome/exciting/ fun-filled holiday celebrated by handsome, beautiful, intelligent people engaging in friendly acquaintance-making and displays of physical strength. This year’s first Canada Day Eve party is scheduled for a tobe-revealed Chilliwack location. You don’t have to be a friend of mine, or even know me, to attend. You just need to bring some food, some beverages and someone with a strong back. If you love Canada, you’ll take part. If you love puppies and hate Osama Bin Laden, you’ll bring a hand dolly. Partygoers, henceforth to be known as “partycipants” (get it!?!) will assemble in front of a predetermined apartment building at a 16-foot-long cube truck, henceforth to be known as the “partymobile.” Canada Day Eve turns the gluttony and sloth usually associated with holidays upside down. Parties often exact a shameful and deleterious effect on the health
TYLER OLSEN
Win,Lose orTy of revelers. They attract ne’er do wells like Charlie Sheen, Lindsay Lohan and those guys from A Night At The Roxbury. And you pay for all of it. Each year, hors d’oeuvres, adult beverages and pizza do a number on our health system and cost Canadian taxpayers billions of dollars. But not on Canada Day Eve. Canada Day Eve is wholesome and wonderful, like the Barenaked Ladies before the singer guy got busted for cocaine. It will feature excitement, thrills and a decent workout. And, unlike certain celebrations that won’t be named here, it shouldn’t end with a trip to the hospital (if it does, well, it wasn’t my party that did you in, got it?) Once you arrive at my bash, you will receive a cubical cardboard Box of Mystery. To reveal the contents, you must transport the Box of Mystery to a housing unit on the building’s fourth floor. Points will be awarded for speed and the safe delivery of
the box. You don’t want to know what happens to those who destroy, damage, consume or steal the box’s contents (Hint: the movie Baseketball will be involved). Those who deposit the most boxes in the apartment unit will earn the chance to take part in the Canada Day Eve strongman competition, the grandfinale to this exciting evening. Qualifiers will be split into teams and tasked with maneuvering objects—known as “funiture”— out of the cube truck, up a flight of stairs, into an elevator and down a narrow hallway. The event will culminate in a final, exhilarating race. The team that moved the most boxes over the qualifying round (henceforth known as The New Best Friends) will transport an object of their choosing, say, a popcorn bowl. They will be racing a team consisting of those partycipants who moved the least number of boxes (henceforth known as The Slackers) who will be moving a Hide-A-Bed. The winners receive drinks of their choice. The runners-up, when they eventually maneuver their item up the stairs, will receive complimentary rides to the Emergency Room, if necessary.
he HST referendum is effectively underway right now. Here’s the question: “Are you in favour of extinguishing the HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) and reinstating the PST (Provincial Sales Tax) in conjunction with the GST (Goods and Services Tax)? (Yes/No).” Actually, it’s a straightforward question. You can vote Yes to “extinguish” (kill, drop, end, remove, dump... replace with your own euphemism, if you wish) the HST. Or you can vote No to “not extinguish” it (keep it). But with all the noise about how difficult it is, some folks may start thinking it really is more difficult than it seems—and they may begin to second-guess their response. The referendum process is easy, too. Elections B.C. was to begin mailing out ballots on June 13, and most eligible voters in the province are expected to receive them by June 24. Those who don’t get their ballots by then need to get in touch with Elections B.C. by July 8. The only tough part? Marked ballots need to be back to Elections B.C. by July 22, whether or not there is a postal strike. The hardest part of it all is trying to understand potential impacts of extinguishing or not extinguishing the HST —far more difficult than the actual referendum question itself. The government has had nearly a year to explain, and it still hasn’t done so sufficiently. Premier Christy Clark’s eleventh-hour manipulations to convince taxpayers to vote “No” have served to make it still more difficult to calculate ramifications. And has Opposition leader Adrian Dix got a hidden agenda for the PST? Or is that more B.C. Liberal hype? It’s expected to take weeks to count the referendum ballots—results aren’t expected to be announced before Aug. 11. Here’s hoping the results are as confusing as the question—and not as confusing as the politicians have made it.

ter to the editor where he refuted Pascal’s Wager, and attempted to show it was in our best interest not to have faith in God. I realize this is a touchy subject, and certainly my intent is not to offend anyone, nor am I representing any official stance on any one belief. After all, I’m only a farmer, not a theologian. First of all, let’s look at religion from a social perspective. Most (although not all) religions share one thing in common: They allow us to look beyond ourselves and look to the needs of others, and that attitude not only makes us better people, but improves our society in general. When we are only focused on our own wants and needs we regress as humans. I’m not saying only religion allows us to do that, but it certainly makes it easier, as that is the focus of most religions. I would also like to take a little time to address Mr. Wood’s assertion concerning each religion’s claim about being the “right religion.” How can one know how to choose? As a Christian, I obviously believe in my faith. Yet how can I claim it to the “right way” without sounding selfrighteous and dismissive of other religions? Well, here’s the rub: Christianity was never intended to be a religion. Oh, we often make it one. It often seems like a bunch of rules and regulations, and it is in this regard that the church has often failed. Religion is in fact a manmade attempt to reach up to or please God. The Bible teaches us that any such attempt will end up in our own frustration as imperfect beings trying to reach a perfect God.
That is where Jesus comes in. You see, Jesus didn’t come to start a new religion. He came to end all religions! Instead of it being about rules and regulations, Jesus reaches out and makes it about a relationship. It’s not about us and our own efforts, but it’s about Jesus’s sacrifice on our behalf so we can have a relationship with God. This is a wager I have gladly chosen to take, and I truly believe it is one I cannot lose. Not in this life or the next. Rick Friesen Chilliwack

Taxpayer not held in regard Editor: Over the years I have finally come to the conclusion that our politicians, in general, do not hold members of the public, the taxpayer, to be precise, in high regard. They actually appear to think we are really stupid, and can be treated as such. The Liberals screwed us when they implemented the hated HST without any consultation with the people they profess to represent, after saying they had no intention of doing so. They definitely knew that the public didn’t want the HST, but put it in place anyways. Now efforts are being made to get rid of it. It’s now in place, against our wishes, and now the same people are spending huge amounts of our money on the media, to convince us to keep it. Imagine, it’s our money/ tax dollars, that’s being poured down the drain, in order to beat us into submission. Richard Parent Chilliwack

Editor: I have sensed that I was not getting the whole story concerning the HST referendum. Mr. Vander Zalm and Mr. Delaney provided some information to address my misgivings. There seems to be an awful lot of pro-HST ads on television and the radio, but there are no ads that address the anti-HST movement. Mr. Vander Zalm claimed that the regulations for spending limits for this referendum had been eliminated. His assessment was that money for the expensive ads that are running during prime time televison spots was provided by many wealthy agencies that stand to make major financial gains if the HST is maintained. On the anti-HST side, a government grant and public donations was the extent of advertising funding. Mr. Delaney made it clear that the HST is now, and will be, 12 per cent until July 2014. All references to the adjusted rate of 10 per cent make it sound like this rate is in effect right now. Also, the claims of $120 tax saving per family per year is only for families that generate a poverty-level income. For families in the mid-income range there will be a tax increase. And probably the most important bit of information shared by Mr. Delaney and Mr. Vander Zalm was the fact that we have lived with the HST now for two years. The claims that the HST will streamline business practices, lower prices, create jobs, and stimulate our economy can be clearly assessed. The Fight HST assessment and my personal assessment is that none of these claims have materialized. I ask voters to add this information to the article provided by the Chilliwack Times, visit the Fight HST and the BC HST websites, and to look beyond the claims of the pro-HST big money ads, as they make up their own minds when they vote in the upcoming referendum.

Big weekend for the church of Chilliwack BY EVANS HUNDERMARK Mountain View Church
W
e take our call from God to love people and love God very seriously. Every week thousands of people from around the city get together in their various churches to do just that. We have churches that focus on the younger generations and others that meet the needs of elderly folk around the city. We have churches that place a strong emphasis on sharing our good news message with other nations and yet others whose main goal is ministering to Canadians. The missions and goals of our churches are as varied as the people who populate them.
COMMUNITY CHURCH “We proclaim Jesus Christ and promote communities of joy, hope, love and peace” Sunday School 10am
The common theme for all of us is similar though—love God and love people. We know that God loves people immeasurably and He has chosen to demonstrate this love through the giving of His son, Jesus Christ. God’s standard for us is perfection. We cannot draw close to Him unless we are perfect. You and I both know that we fall short of that standard of perfection and are unable to wipe away our imperfections. So God, because of His love for us, sent His son who was perfect in every way to take the consequence of our sin on to Himself. Now that is love in the extreme. When one experiences such love, you just have to tell someone and that is where the church comes in.

St Francis of Assisi said it best when he said, “Wherever you go preach the Gospel (good news), and if necessary use words.” As a church, and followers of God, we don’t always get this perfectly right but it is our drive and motivation. So, that is where this weekend comes in. It is a weekend when we as 60 (or thereabouts) churches come together to recognize our common goal and love for God to be “Jesus with flesh on,” not just a concept of love and acceptance, but to practically demonstrate to our city the love
“Where Jesus is still changing lives!”

Their heavy lifting rewarded Special Olympians bring home the gold
BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com
C
hilliwack’s Special Olympics program muscled some serious hardware away from a powerlifting competition last weekend in Vancouver. Chilliwack Special Olympic athletes won five gold medals and added a silver at the 2011 BC Provincial Powerlifting and Bench Press Championships for Special Olympics. Steven Sykorsky, Matt MacKay, Tyler MacMillan, Joanne Bunnin and Janice Reid all won gold medals with Lisa Newell adding a silver medal. The success continued on the soccer pitch, where Chilliwack’s squad finished in first place in a Special Olympics tournament in Richmond. And on the softball diamond, the Chilliwack Special Oympians finished in second place in the C1 Division in a recent tournament in Coquitlam. Meanwhile, swimmer Ryan Kuester is in Greece preparing for the Special Olympics World Summer Games in the birthplace of the Olympics, Athens, Greece. Kuester left for Greece last week, and his parents will join him this weekend. Kuester qualified to swim in the 25-metre freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke events. Here in Chilliwack, Kuester’s coaches, Jacque Lemieux and John Jones, will be cheering on their protege from afar. “We’re just happy to see him go [to Greece],’” Lemieux told the Times. “I told Ryan, ‘Just go out and have a good time.” So far, Kuester seems to be taking his coach’s advice to heart. When Cindy Kuester spoke to her son Tuesday, “he was on the island

of Rhodes and having a wonderful time meeting all of the other athletes,” she told the Times via email. Lemieux, who is also the local coordinator in Chilliwack, said the Special Olympics program “has grown leaps and bounds.” And it’s not only sending athletes to harvest medals and good times from Lower Mainland sporting events. On Canada Day, 50 local athletes will help out at a pancake breakfast hosted by the Kiwanis Club, one of the program’s biggest advocates and supporters.
If you are a teen interested in attending this group; someone wanting to refer a teen to this group; or would like more information about the group call Lucy Fraser: (604) 795-4660; or email lucy@chilliwackhospice.org

Lower your scores by improving your short game O
ne of the easiest ways to lower your golf scores without changing your swing is to assess your chipping. I see many students sacrificing precious strokes around the green because of poorly executed chip shots. When faced with a chip shot, first you must determine how high you need to hit the chip. Be sure to always use as much of the green as given, and hit the lowest lofted shot as possible. Save the difficult high-risk “flop shots” for an as-need basis only. Flop shots are often difficult to learn, and if slightly mishit, you are likely sacrificing even more shots around the
JENNIFER GREGGAIN
Pro Tips green. For the most part, a user-friendly chip-and-run shot is all that is needed. What I love about the chip-and-run shot is that it is very easy to learn. Your set up is the most important step. Be sure to hold the club a little lower on the club, which helps promote control. Next, shift your weight slightly forward, press your hands ahead of the clubhead, and place

One drill I highly recommend is the Up and Down Game. Choose a chip shot around the green. Using only one ball, hit the chip, and then try to make the following putt. If you have only one chip and one putt, you have successfully gotten “up and down,” and receive one point. Continue choosing different types of chip shots with different clubs, and practise until you have reached your pre-
a good finish position for a count of three. If you’re hitting your chip shots too thin, or topping them, be sure your weight is shifted slightly forward, and you are hitting the shot with a descending motion. Practice hitting solid shots by placing a tee in the ground, and “chipping” them out. This motion will teach the feel of how to hit your chip shots more solid. To practice your chipping, choose a small target one or two paces on the green where you would like the ball to land, then let the ball roll the rest of the way to the hole. Experiment by using different clubs. This shot can be used with
the ball in the back of your stance. To hit a consistently solid chip shot, the movement comes from your shoulders, not your wrists. Your wrists should be fairly quiet, with your arms remaining extended for the entire stroke, similar to a putting stroke. I like to compare this stroke to a pendulum, with the size and tempo of your swing remaining consistent. The number one cause of the dreaded chilli dip shot is poor tempo. You are likely slowing down through impact. Try keeping your tempo consistent, being sure to slightly accelerate through the ball, and hold

Recently we wrote about the latest crop of fuel-efficient ‘small cars’ having earned the most “Top Safety Pick” ratings since the US-based Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) began testing small cars in the late 1990’s. Lately there’s been more good news from the IIHS: “Dying in a crash has become much less likely Cedric Hughes than it used to be … in all types of passenger vehicles.” Based on research computing driver death rates for all models with at least 100,000 registered vehicle years during 2006-09—a registered year consisting of either one vehicle registered for one year or two vehicles for six months each, this latest IIHS ‘Status Report’ noted two “broad trends.” One is a large decline in the overall death rate to 48 per million registered vehicle years for 2005-08 models—down from 79 for 2001-04 models, which in turn was down from 87 for 1999-2002 models and 110 for 1989-1993. The other change is the dramatic development in the relative risk associated with different types of vehicles with SUVs leading the way. From the highest driver death rates, SUVs now rank among the safest vehicles—indeed, “on balance safer than cars because their bigger size and weight provide greater protection in a crash.” Anne McCartt, the IIHS’s senior vice president for research thanks the early introduction of Electronic Stability Control (ESC) as a standard feature in SUVs: “The rollover risk in SUVs used to outweigh their size/weight advantage, but that’s no longer the case, thanks to ESC.” The IIHS report cites the statistics: “Among 2002 models,

ESC was standard on 28% of cars and 10% of SUVs and wasn’t available even as an option on pickups”. By the 2008 model year, it was standard on 65% of cars, 96% of SUVs, and 11% of pickups. ESC’s role is evident when looking at death rates by crash type. The rate of rollover deaths — 13 per million — is less than half of what it was for 1999Barrister & Solicitor 2002 models, and SUVs now have lower than average rollover death rates. Pickups, few of which had ESC by 2008, have a much higher rollover death rate of 21. When a vehicle strays from the intended travel path or begins to spin out, ESC automatically brakes individual wheels or reduces throttle to keep the vehicle under control. First introduced by Mercedes Benz in 1994, ESC systems are now mandated by Australian, Canadian, European Union and US regulations in all models starting in 2012. These regulations specify the components and capabilities of ESC and require vehicles to meet performance requirements in dynamic testing. A concern is whether mandated standards for ESC will discourage efforts to make the feature even more effective. But this seems unlikely. The non-uniform reductions in loss from the introduction of ESC in 48 different SUV models is currently being studied partly for the purpose of determining “if it’s possible to enhance current ESC technology beyond what US regulations require,” said David Zuby, the chief research officer of the Highway Loss Data Institute, an affiliate of the IIHS.

Wicket words W
BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com
ith the formation of the Eastern District Cricket Club, the pages of theTimes now include recaps of the men and women squad’s latest matches. The only problem is that for cricket newbies, even the simplest game story can appear to be written in a foreign language. (Recaps that appear in theTimes are mostly penned by Eastern District captain Scott Anderson). Cricket is a relatively simple game and much like baseball: you hit a ball, and run between two defined spots—in baseball, these are bases; in cricket they are wickets—to score. But when it comes to the terminology and the scores, cricket can baffle. So, with that in mind, here’s a cheat sheet to refer to next time theTimes writes something like “Eastern District scored 186 all out in their innings thanks to three sixes from Joe Smith. Smith also bowled and claimed two wickets in two overs.”
Terminology All out: The team finished batting after each batter was called out. Innings: A team’s turn to bat. Local teams play matches where each squad gets an innings to tally runs. International matches are often played over five days, with each team having two innings. Sixes: Similar to a home-run in baseball. Six runs are awarded when a ball travels in the air over the boundary of the field without bouncing. Four runs are awarded when the ball bounces or rolls over the boundary of the field. Bowler: Just like the pitcher in baseball, although the delivery is different. Wickets: One of the wooden setups in front of which batters stand and towards which bowlers throw. If a bowler knocks a wicket down with the ball, the batter is out. Overs: A set of six balls bowled in a row. So our original phrase—”Eastern District scored 186 all out in their innings thanks to three sixes from the bowler, who claimed two wickets in two overs”—means that Eastern District finished with 186 runs while batting. Smith threw 12 balls and got two opposing batters out. It’s that simple. Almost. Those curious about the sport are always invited to check out the Eastern District Cricket Club Stag’s games every Saturday at Meadowbrook Park behind A.D. Rundle middle school. Eastern District’s women’s team plays on various Sundays throughout the summer.

A special Seabird grad
City ‘surprised’
BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com
CLINIC, from page 1

hen 49 adult grads walk the stage at Seabird Island this Friday, they’ll be wearing caps and gowns, but they won’t be marching to Pomp and Circumstance. Instead, there will be drumming, and the whole procession will be brushed with cedar boughs, an action believed to bring clarity of mind and heart. Their grad garb will also feature a blend of traditions—instead of the European v-stole, graduates and dignitaries will wear sashes, shawls and blankets over their gowns. The 49 grads are the first students to graduate from Seabird Island College’s new adult education program, and many will walk away from the ceremony with not only an adult Dogwood diploma, but a level-one or level-two apprenticeship in a trade as well. “They want something they can sink their teeth into. They want something they can get a job with,” said Seabird Island education manager Diane Janzen of the rationale behind the program. Along with academic requirements like English and Math, about 40 of the graduates also completed the required number of electives in trades, including carpentry, plumbing, graphic arts, painting and decorating, drywalling and information technology.
By offering the adult, dualcredit programs onsite at Seabird Island, the college hopes to overcome barriers, like transportation and a lack of community support, that students encounter at off-site schools. “Transportation’s a hell of an issue,” said 22-year-old Andrew Melenchuk, who will graduate Friday with a level-one apprenticeship in plumbing. As a Grade 11 student at Chilliwack secondary a few years ago, he found it hard to get to school on time and was eventually kicked out, he said. Studying at Seabird Island this year was a totally different story. “My house is just over there,” he said. “It takes me 30 seconds to leave my front door and be here. That was a big bonus.” Melenchuk doubts he would have earned his Dogwood if the program wasn’t offered right on Seabird Island, but the high school diploma is less important to him than the foot in the door he now has in the plumbing trade. “You’re starting a career instead of just going to a job,” he said. “There’s tons of money to be made in this industry.” And the high school diploma he earned along the way isn’t totally without benefit either. “My mom seems happy about it,” he said.

or tell us anything about marijuana and so we were rather surprised by the fact that that is their business,” Gaetz told the Times. “Not annoyed, just surprised.” Gaetz said Wednesday that city officials were checking on the legality of such a business. She reserved further comment on her own views on such a business until she knew whether it was permitted by city and federal laws. Earlier this week, the federal government announced that it was seeking public input in regards to proposed changes to Canada’s medical marijuana legislation that would, among other things, prohibit it from being grown by individuals. With the Be Kind operators not speaking, it’s not known where the marijuana will be grown. But if the government does mandate that marijuana be grown commercially, rather than in homes, as is being proposed, a centrally located dispensary would likely be the preferred method of delivery. Indeed, after Mayor Sharon Gaetz asked federal Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq for a meeting in 2009 to discuss medical marijuana grow operations, the chair of a Vancouver compassion club told the Times that they would prefer to see marijuana grown commercially, instead of by individuals. “The issue of medical cannabis cultivation in structures designed as dwellings is one of our major concerns,” Vancouver Foresight Society chair Mike Hansen told the Times via e-mail in October of 2009.

“I never wanted to weigh 280 lbs” Rose has lost 100 pounds “I never wanted to weigh 280 lbs but I had no idea what I kept doing wrong to get myself to that sad point. I had been through a few different weight loss programs but with only temporary success so in complete despair I went to my doctor’s office to ask for help, and he said that I should go to SureSlim. Having run out of options I went, and signed up knowing that there was nothing else that could help me and hoped through all of the doubt that this program would be the answer. Now I have lost 100 lbs in a little less than one year with only 20 lbs left to go. I think that this surprises me more than it does anyone else. For the first time in my life I am confident that I can permanently succeed in losing all of the weight I need to lose, and to keep that weight from ever coming back. SureSlim has given me the tools to succeed by teaching me which foods work for my body and which ones don’t. I am eating real food from the grocery store that I have learned to prepare in a different way than I used to. It’s not magic and it’s not always easy but it is possible, and I am grateful to SureSlim for teaching me this important life changing approach to healthy eating and weight management.” BEFORE PAYMENT PLANS NOW AVAILABLE • WE ARE CRA APPROVED NO PILLS • NO PACKAGED FOODS • NO PROTEIN SHAKES • NO INJECTIONS • NO EXCESSIVE EXERCISE

Work experience made easier BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com
T
he Chilliwack school district is expanding its work experience program into July and August. For the first time since the program began, students can now get the 30 hours of work experience or “grad transitions” they need to graduate without having to work around their school-year schedule. With the change, students can also take time during the summer months to earn four credits towards graduation by completing a 90-hour work experience placement for an elective course called Work Experience 12. “It really changes the way we’re going to be able to do business,” said work experience co-ordinator Chris Reitsma. “We can have a much broader scope.” Traditionally, as the work experience department’s only 12-month employee, Reitsma has spent July and August planning for the upcoming school year, but a small boost in staffing in next year’s budget (actually a reinstatement of staffing cut this year), has allowed the department to move its two facilitators from 10-month to 12-month positions. Summer work experience options will benefit all students, according to
Reitsma, but they could prove a particular boon to kids at both extremes of the academic spectrum. Academic kids gunning for top marks in math and sciences, for example, have a tough time fitting work experience placements into their rigorous academic schedules during the school year. “It’s hard to get them out of school for a full week,” said facilitator Kathy Wiseman, “so sometimes they’re only getting a one-day [job] shadow at a pharmacy, and that’s not really giving them what they need. This way they can get out in the summer and get a full experience.” Expanding the program into the summer will also benefit at-risk students, who often thrive on the self-esteemboosting real-world skills learned during work experience placements. “Every single student I have sent out, they have had excellent evaluations, and those students are doing great in the automotive, in the culinary,” said Wiseman, who finds placements for Chilliwack secondary’s Bridges program. “Two of them got offered summertime, part time jobs.” The work experience department places about 1,100 to 1,200 students a year, but, without much time to advertise before the end of school, Reitsma
would be happy to place 100 or more this summer. Although July and August are “boom time” for seasonal employment, the department is always looking for employers willing to take on students. What’s in it for them? “Besides good karma?” asked Reitsma, with a laugh. “If students meet the cut, so to speak, there’s potential for [employers] to find a new employee. That’s a huge benefit.” Reitsma added that work experience placements also break down barriers and allow the business community to see local youth in a positive light and at their best. With benefits all around, Wiseman can’t see any reason the work experience wouldn’t expand even further in the future. “It’s the way of the future,” she said. “Students want hands-on experiences.” ◗ Since work experience staff will be working all summer, there is no deadline for students to apply for a placement. Employers and organizations interested in taking on a student should contact the work experience department directly at 604-858-8579 or workexperience@sd33.bc.ca. For more information, visit www.workexperience.sd33.org.

Gourmet picnic ideas for Canada Day H CHEF DEZ
On Cooking create the same seductive ambience. Too many family picnic gatherings are bombarded with the consistently usual potato salads and coleslaws. However, no matter what salad you choose, it will require some assembly, so one is better off expending that energy by making something different. The variations of salads are endless. A quick and easy way is to create one from the ingredients you already have in your fridge and pantry. If you don’t have the confidence to go this far, then blow some dust off the cookbooks you have piling up and try something you have never made before. Whatever salad you choose to prepare, pita pockets are the perfect item to serve them in. They will eliminate the need for paper plates and plastic cutlery, while adding a gourmet aura
to your salad eating experience. If carbohydrates are a concern, lettuce leaves also work great as salad holders. That brings our conversation to the next common picnic item—sandwiches. Instead of peanut butter & jelly or egg salad, why not make Italian pressed sandwiches filled with a variety of Mediterranean meats, cheeses, and complimentary flavours. This is not as hard as it sounds, as it is made in a large loaf and then cut into individual sandwiches. To ease the preparation, purchase a large Ciabatta loaf from the bakery counter. Cut it in half length-wise, and hollow out the majority of the center while keeping the shape of the outside crust in tact. You should be able to put the top back on and have it look like an untouched loaf. Fill the center with a variety of sliced meats like salami and capicolli with a complimenting cheese like provolone or shavings of parmissiano reggiano. Continue to fill the
bread with gourmet olives, sundried tomatoes, capers, fresh basil and oregano, salt, fresh cracked pepper, and some extra-virgin olive oil. Put the top of the bread back on, seal it tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight with a cutting board and some heavy cans placed on top of it to press it all together combining the flavours. Follow one simple rule to make things different and exciting: Don’t settle for ordinary when extraordinary can be easy
Dear Chef Dez: I always find potato salads bland. Any suggestions? Stephanie T. Langley Dear Stephanie: I am so glad you asked this question, as I always use this as a topic of discussion with my students. Firstly, if you are boiling your potatoes, try steaming them instead. Potatoes being boiled will take on excess unnecessary water, and water has no flavour. Steaming them will help to prevent this plus they will

cook faster as steam is hotter than boiling water. If you insist on boiling, then at least make sure that the water is liberally salted so the potatoes will become seasoned as they boil. The most important thing to do however is taste the salad. Dressings are usually prepared separately and then mixed with the bland potatoes. People are very careful to taste their dressings in progress, and adjust the seasonings as needed, but we forget to taste the salad once it is combined. Always taste and adjust the seasonings in anything you make, just before you are serving it so that you can assess it in the same form that your guests will.

ow many people are tired of the same old picnic items? Do memories of bland potato salads and boring sandwiches persuade you to buy fast food or, worse yet, keep you locked indoors? Whether it’s a romantic picnic for two or a family outing, easy to prepare gourmet ideas will liven-up your picnic basket for the holiday long weekend. One of the simplest things to pack for a romantic picnic for two is a fruit and cheese assortment, as there is virtually no preparation required. A grocery store with a delicatessen counter will be able to provide you with a number of small cheeses and specialty meats. While you are there pick up an assortment of fruit like grapes, pears, and local fresh berries, along with some gourmet crackers and pepper jelly. Wash the fruit but leave everything else in it’s original store packaging. You will want to pack a small cutting board, a couple of sharp knives and, if legally feasible, a bottle of wine. If wine is not an option, then juice in wine glasses will

pending eight hours on a single, intricate cut with a scroll saw might not be everyone’s ideal way to wind down after a hard day’s work, but for local scroller Carl Hird-Rutter, it’s downright therapeutic. “It’s very relaxing,” he said, describing one particular cut (for a cutout of a vase of roses) that he completed in two four-hour sessions. “People often say you need patience to do this because some of the projects will take weeks to do. You don’t need patience; you just have to enjoy what you’re doing. If you’re enjoying it, time just flies.” And then, of course, there’s the end result. “You feel like you’ve really accomplished something when you’ve made your little project,” he said. Hird-Rutter, a City of Chilliwack water meter reader, has been scroll-

This month, a Pennsylvaniabased trade magazine, Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts is featuring two of his designs: a small wooden whale that comes apart to reveal a tiny Jonah in its belly and a pocketsize tangram puzzle. It’s not the first time Hird-Rutter’s work has been featured in the magazine. With 13 published designs to his credit, he’s a regular. He started out with intricate artsy designs, but lately his tastes have shifted towards small wooden toys and puzzles (the theme of Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts’ June issue). His magnus opus to date is the SpyPod, a wooden toy that features a magnifying glass, telescope, decoder ring and rubber-band-shooting pistol—all tucked into an iPod-sized exterior. The design alone took the hobbyist a month. “Every time I tried to make it small enough, things fell apart,” he said. His eureka moment came to him
during a drive to Save-On-Foods one day. “All of a sudden it hit me on how everything was going to work, so I had to pull over on the side of the road and scribble everything down, and then I went home that night and made it.” With the money Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts paid him for the design, he bought a new, top-of-theline Excalibur saw. Although he estimates he has spent about $2,000 altogether on equipment for his hobby, he says beginners can buy everything they need to get started for as little as $200. And he scrounges most of his wood for free from cabinet shops that have little use for the small pieces his uses. Hird-Rutter got his first $125 saw from Roy Brown, a neighbour who started him on the scrolling 15 years ago. The two struck up a friendship around the hobby that included

annual demonstrations at the Chilliwack Fair. Hird-Rutter will be back this summer, but, for the first time, it will be without his friend, who died earlier this year. “He really did inspire me, and I miss him,” said Hird-Rutter. He takes some solace in a couple of youngsters who, after watching his and Roy’s scrolling demonstrations at the fair, took up the hobby themselves. “They have ended up cleaning up prizes every year,” he said. “They do such a good job.” To anyone thinking of taking up the pastime, Hird-Rutter suggests getting hands-on help from an experienced scroller. Although the saws are safe for kids as young as seven and easy to use, he says people starting out tend to fight with the blade rather than work with it. “It’s kind of like a Zen thing,” he said. Don’t wait another day to protect yourself and your loved ones.

Cash tribute coming to G.W. Graham

Gary Kehoe performs as The Man in Black in his tribute show, The Life and Times of Johnny Cash on Jun 25.

AFFORDABLE FAMILY FUN! Adults Jr/Sr Tues - ALL Matinees
A
long-time admirer of the legendary Man in Black, Gary Kehoe first created a tribute act to Johnny Cash in 2004. Kehoe brings his show—The Life and Times of Johnny Cash—to the G.W. Graham Theatre on June 25 at 8 p.m. Kehoe first performed his Johnny Cash tribute as part of his two-part show in the 1980s. The first part of that show was a Grand Ole Oprystyle show where he did impersonations of many country music stars of the time. The second part was his comedic alter ego, Black Bart. There was a resurgence of interest in Cash’s music after the 2005 movie Walk the Line. Kehoe’s show became popular and he started touring across Canada, sometimes with his band, the Mad-Cow-Boys, and sometimes solo. Now The Life and Times of Johnny Cash appears regularly in theatres, casinos and other venues across the country, as well as at fairs, rodeos and music festivals. With more than 600 performances, it has become the longest-running Johnny Cash tribute show in Canada. Featured guest for the June 25 show in Chilliwack is Dereck Siteman with his tributes to Roy Orbison, Jim Reeves and Marty Robbins.

Looking for arch artists
T
h e F r a s e r Va l l e y Re g i o n a l L i b ra r y ’s (FVRL) Chilliwack branch is redecorating the children’s area alcoves and is looking for artists to help. On Tuesday, the FVRL announced a competition to determine whose artistic design will transform the two arches and curved walls encasing the alcove areas. The competition, open to teens and adults, amateur or professional, runs from July 2 to Aug. 26. Entrants are invited to showcase their talents by submitting designs, using children’s themes, for one or both arches. All styles of artwork are encouraged. Two winners will each receive a
cash prize of $500 and their names displayed on a plaque near their work which will be honoured in an unveiling reception on Oct. 3. Submitted designs will be judged by a panel selected from the community and the library as well as by popular vote. The winning artists will have one month to complete their murals using their own brushes; the library will supply paint.
DOWN PAYMENTS ARE FOR HIGH VALUE ITEMS.
◗ For more information including dimensions and entry forms, please visit the Chilliwack Library. If you are unable to make it to the library to pick up an entry form, email gwyneth.jones@ fvrl.bc.ca.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Cancer June 21-July 22: Your energy, effectiveness, magnetism, and optimism rise for the weeks ahead.You’re on a winning track! That is, if you don’t get knocked off it Sunday/Monday by insisting too strongly on your own way. Be flexible, discern others’ desires. Your popularity rises the rest of this year, and this Monday it could bring you love! Wish, hope, see opportunities, not oppositions. Retreat for a rest and some deep thinking Tuesday/Wednesday – good plans can hatch, and civil servants favour you. Your energy, clout rise Thursday-Saturday: but a domestic or realty problem needs solving. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Take life easy, roll with the punches this week and the next few.Lie low,rest,plan, meditate, deal with shut-ins, fulfill old obligations, be charitable and spiritual, especially Thursday to Saturday. Study career, employment, government and head-office situations Sunday/Monday – think about the changes these areas face now to 2023. Your health faces changes too: a chronic condition disappears. The decade ahead brings digestive concerns, so eat sensibly. Vegetables cure ills. Your hopes rise Tuesday/Wednesday: enjoy a pleasant interval. Saturday night brings “potent glances.” Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Hopes and wishes come true over the weeks ahead. Your optimism grows, your popularity rises. Expect flirtation, light romance, entertainment, social delights! Issue and accept invitations. Wisdom, understanding visit Sunday/Monday. You could see friends struggle, or gravitate toward one another. Be ambitious Tuesday/ Wednesday – you can make headway, all is smooth, especially in money areas related to career. Your hopes and happiness rise Thursday to Saturday, but impediments arise to money, earnings, sensuality and romance – practical impediments. Smile, bide your time.

Aries March 21 - April 19: The weeks ahead feature property, family, security, gardening, retirement, and the establishment or strengthening of foundations (concrete and emotional/spiritual). You’ll say goodbye to some people or situations, and greet new ones. Snip off wilted vines. Chase money Monday/ Tuesday, but pay attention to major developments: 1) the change in your life and goals causes a change in your home and foundations; 2) this “home change” must face and deal with a change in status or career. Both are long-term, fill the decade ahead – many heartfelt wishes will come true before 2018! Taurus April 20-May 20: Short trips, paperwork, errands, calls, news and casual acquaintances fill the weeks ahead. It’s a busy but not important time. A new project could arise in these areas Thursday onward. Your energy and charisma hit a beautiful peak Sunday/Monday – both days feature a critical development, one which will mold your character going forward. Not in a “war” or conflict way, but in a wisdom way. Chase money Tuesday/Wednesday – but reasonably. Information comes Thursday to Saturday – avoid taking risks in property, legal, and employment zones. Avoid gossip all week; think first. Gemini May 21-June 20: Chase money, seek new clients, buy/sell, and deal with all money matters for the few weeks ahead. Your overall financial, investment, net worth situation is changing – has been changing since 2008, and will continue to do so until 2023. This can be a good thing or a bad thing. Hints of this (and perhaps of tension between your social needs and your money desires) appear Sunday/Monday. Now through August 2012, don’t make the wrong financial decision based on anger, selfishness, over-independence, or a “fed up” feeling. Your energy, charisma surge mid-week – start good things!

June 26 - July 2, 2011
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The cosmos nudges you toward career, business, ambition and prestige situations for the next few weeks (especially late this week). Simultaneously, a deeper, perhaps unconscious force pulls you toward domesticity, security, foundations. You could experience this as a try-versus-quit tug-o-war. It’s there strongly Sunday/ Monday. Best approach: make changes to your career (etc.) goals in order to conform to new realities. The year ahead favours major life changes, and these could also touch a lucky wand to your investments and/or intimate life. For success: talk, be curious! Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: This is a gentle, sweet time of understanding and wisdom. You might meet a love who could become a life mate – though this is more favoured after July 2, as practical impediments lurk all this week (e.g., that handsome guy is a single father with 10 loud kids.) But in the big picture, you’re finally on true love’s road – though your destination could appear in any one of the fifteen years ahead. The 12 months ahead bring lucky relationships and splendid money opportunities. Love’s choice arises Tuesday. Finances, sexual urges are easy midweek, but might be subtle traps. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Mysteries, secrets, changes and commitments fill the weeks ahead, especially this Thursday-Saturday – though so many practical barriers and traps arise this week that you should wait until next week to act. (Especially to invest, change lifestyle, seek a health diagnosis, undergo surgery, seek sexual intimacy, or make any kind of important commitment or new start.) Sunday/Monday are for chores – practice safety, and eat/dress sensibly. Relationships are smooth and benign Tuesday/Wednesday – still, be wary of committing yourself (and of offered advice). Joy, Saturday late!
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Relationships are paramount during this irritating week. Be diplomatic. Bosses and VIPs seem un-amused, and practical matters run into soft, subtle but strong impediments. Opportunities will come, but the good ones arrive after July 2, not before. Sunday/Monday are romantic – you could meet someone who finds you mysteriously attractive. This could grow to “deep heights.” Tackle chores Tuesday/Wednesday, but don’t take on so much it will interfere with other activities. You’re meant to find love and pleasure this year: to deny it would be a loss. Go slow Thursday to Saturday. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: The month ahead holds chores, health and nutrition concerns, and nudges you to attend to kids and pets. It’s a good time to seek employment – after this week. Though Sunday/ Monday might contain stress (Sunday) and a feeling of alienation (Monday) these days also highlight home, recuperation, Gaia, property – all imbued with good/ great fortune over the months ahead. A nice romantic breeze is wafting its way through your life June/July, and you should feel its light touch Tuesday/Wednesday. Handle chores, but avoid romance, machinery purchases, dull people, Thursday-Saturday. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: The accent lies on romance, pleasure, beauty, creative surges, speculation, risks and self-expression, now through late July (and especially this Thursday-Saturday). This week’s a little dicey, though, filled with practical barriers, so a bit of waiting or hesitation isn’t unwise. Sunday/Monday indelibly link your romantic and social sides, or cause a tug-o-war between the two. A friend might become a lover (or hints thereof) – or you might have to choose between the two. Domestic matters flow smoothly Tuesday/Wednesday, but might not be beneficial long-term. Talk aids career. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
