The Loss of Gravity
Gravity Climbing Centre Closes
After 20 years of service to the Nelson and area climbing community, Gravity Climbing Centre is set to close it’s doors on April 14 2012. The closure is due to the climbing centre being given an eviction notice. The Landlord has sold the building and the new owners are turning it into office space. Josie Day (pictured at the left) is a member of the Gravity Climbing Team. When told about the closure she said, “I was really upset because I����������������������������� was hoping to get really good at climbing. I don’t know what I will do after it closes. I hope another place can be found.” Gravity Climbing Centre will not be relocating but the owners are hoping that the Kootenay Climbing community will find an alternative option to rebuild a new facility somewhere else in town.

Gravity Climbing Centre Closes
Story continued from pg.1 The Gravity Climbing Centre will continue to provide quality routes and run all of their programs with the same enthusiasm and professionalism as they have always had for the remainder of their existence. Brad Winter, the coach of the Gravity Climbing team has been a dedicated and respected part of the centre for the past year. When told about the closure of the centre, he not only had to tell his climbing team, but cope with the closure himself. “I am truly grateful to be involved with the Junior Climbing Program and Girls Club as a assistant and with the Competitive Youth Climbing Team as the Coach. It was a wonderful and rewarding experience to start up the team again with five super keen youth last March and watch the team grow this season to 12 equally keen and very talented young
climbers. I am so proud of everyone in all three of our programs, they have all progressed at an astonishing rate.” Winter continues; “The feeling one gets after letting children and teenagers know that they are losing a place they love is not a pleasant one. I am sure though that my sadness pales in comparison to that being experienced by June and Mirek whom are losing a business that has been grown for over 20 years.” The climbing community is encouraged to attend a meeting that will be hosted by the owners and operators of the Gravity Climbing Centre will host at the climbing centre on Friday December 16 at 7:30 p.m. to discuss some options.

That’s one person every two minutes!” Besides food, the service provides free books and toiletries. This winter, the Food Pantry is open every Friday, including holidays, from 8:30 am to 11 am. Donations can be dropped off at the Church office at 723 Ward Street, Tuesday-Friday, 8 am to 1 pm. For further information, please call the Church office at 250-352-5711.

Should I keep looking for two identical snowflakes? dr. science Christine Humphries
As I was sitting at my window watching the snow fall, I wondered if it was really true that no two snowflakes are identical. A snowflake is the general name given to one or more snow crystals clumped together. A snow crystal is, as the name implies, a single crystal formed from a hexagonal lattice of water molecules. The crystal is formed when water vapour condenses into ice. A snow crystal is
both complex and symmetrical. Its symmetry is derived from the six-fold symmetry of the water molecules that form the ice crystal lattice. The most basic structure of a snow crystal is a simple hexagonal prism, with two hexagonal faces and six rectangular faces. This type of crystal can be as flat as a plate or shaped like a tiny pencil. Another common snow crystal is star-like with six arms. Large complex snow crystals have hundreds of features that grow independently on each of their six (or more) arms. The environment of the crystal has a large effect on how the crystal grows. This means that the growth of each of a crystal’s six arms is affected
by the environment in the cloud, but since the arms of a single crystal are pretty much in the same environment, they tend to be alike (this is the symmetry). However, crystals formed in different environments, even within the same cloud, will grow differently from one another. As you can therefore imagine, the number of different ways each of the hundreds of features of a complex snow crystals can grow is very very very large. So, to answer my initial question, the probability that any two complex snow crystals are exactly alike within the lifetime of the universe is considered to be indistinguishable from zero!

Helen Mahonen
Helen Mahonen of Nelson BC passed away on Dec 5, 2011 at Kootenay Lake Hospital at age 82. Helen was born in Brilliant BC on July 5, 1929 to Harry J Planden and Lucy Planden. Helen was predeceased by her mother and father; husband Louis Choquette; husband John Mahonen; and her 4 brothers George, Harry, Peter, and Nick. She is survived by and will be missed immensely by her daughter Jonnine; her son Nathan (Bobbi); grandsons Brian, John, and Chris; special niece Loretta Strukoff; and many other beloved family members and friends. She will be remembered for the strength and generosity of her spirit. To her children and several lucky others she embodied true unconditional love. It took a lot to slow her down, and she handled a series of recent health issues with a grace and strength that has inspired many. She faced challenges head on, just dealt with whatever had to be done, and moved on. Her great sense of humour helped her take it all on. Helen took some time off work to raise her children when they were younger, but otherwise she worked outside the home for most of her life. She is likely known by most people in the area as a greeter at WalMart in Nelson where she worked from 1988
until her retirement at age 82 in June 2011. She loved her job at WalMart, it was her second family. She enjoyed the daily interactions with fellow workers and customers, and deciding to finally retire was not something that came easily for her. She really was a “people person”. We would like to extend thanks and appreciation for the many levels of support during this last part of her time with us as she dealt with leukemia. Staff from multiple departments at KLH provided a steady stream of respect and care for which we are so grateful. The nurses on 3rd floor especially were there around the clock looking after her, laughing with her, and putting up with her sass. Dr Malpass provided a depth of medical knowledge as well as deep compassion. A solid core of friends and family provided the love and support we needed to help us through it all. Funeral services will be delivered at Thompson Funeral Home on Saturday Dec 10, 2011 at 10am. Helen has requested no flowers please, but rather donations to the Kootenay Lake Hospital Foundation would be appreciated. Online condolences may be expressed at www.thompsonfs.ca Funeral Arrangements are under the direction of Thompson Funeral Service Ltd.
Arthur John Mallandaine passed away at Mountain Lake Seniors Community in Nelson, BC on November 22, 2011 at the age of 90 years. Cremation has taken place and a service will be held in Edmonton at a later date. The family wishes to thank Dr. Janz, Dr. Woodward, and all the staff and caregivers. As an expression of sympathy, family and friends may make a donation to: Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC and Yukon, Okanagan and Kootenay Area Office, 4-1551 Sutherland Avenue, Kelowna, BC, V1Y 9M9 Arrangements are under the direction of Thompson Funeral Service Ltd.

Brothers Ted and Tommy, sisters Muriel, Dorthy, Randi, his grandchildren Baily, Cameron, Austin, Tiffany, Calvin, Paige and many others who knew and loved him. Dennis had a long career with the military and worked over 28 years at the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory in Victoria. Dennis was also a member of the Shaminigan Lake Legion where he spent a lot of time playing pool and darts. At Dennis’ request there will be no service.
