Worker’s finger amputated by saw blade. Worker’s head injured by exploding drum. Worker’s arm crushed when pulled into in-feed rollers. I clicked the link on the Worksafe B.C. website and scanned through several more recent incidents. Bulldozer backs over worker’s foot and leg, deep cut to hand, multiple crush inju-ries, injuries to face… The list goes on and on and I realized once again why we need a Day of Mourning. I went to the website in order to find out about the Day of Mourning this year and before I could find the information, the accident awareness link with the long list of needless injuries had caught my attention. Shaking my head, I clicked the back button and scanned the page for the information I was looking for and found it right at the top of the page, a large head-line reads “DAY OF MOURNING” We remem-ber the 173 B.C. workers who lost their lives in 2014.”
One hundred and seventy three. One person dead on the job every two days in British Columbia this year. In 2013 nine hundred and two people died of workplace incidents in Canada. Needless, pointless, unnecessary deaths. It is only fitting that we as a civilized society should have a ceremony to remember these workers, not only the 173 that passed this year but the thousands that have given their lives in the past. We need to honour these people and shed light on the fact that there are still far too many disastrous work place accidents in British Columbia and Canada every year. I remember back to my past working construction in several forms and can’t help but think of the many close calls that I laughed off in my youth. Some people aren’t so lucky; they don’t get a chance to laugh it off. I remember some of the accidents I myself witnessed, such as seeing a fellow co-worker lose some digits to a jointer or remembering the time a friend called and told me that her husband had been killed in the sawmill he worked in, and could I come help her out. I also remember the day I got home from school and my mother and father weren’t there but there was a hastily scrawled note saying my brother had been hurt and they were in Kamloops. My brother lost all his fingers on his left hand that day, just one more pointless loss that could have been pre-vented.
Every year, new and better safety equipment comes out, but the incidents keep happening.
Even now I can recall so many different work sites with lack of guards on equipment, lack of a safety plan, lack of worker education. Whether these conditions were oversights, cost-saving measures, or just a lack of knowledge, there real-ly is no good reason that a worksite should not be made as absolutely safe as possible for the workers. No one I know has ever stated on their resume that they don’t really mind dying or get-ting seriously injured for their paycheque.
I have to admit that last year was the first time I had heard of the event. I remember being all nonchalant as I wandered up to what I thought was just another photo opportunity for the paper. The speeches that were given that day had real impact, and it made me wish that there were more people there to listen to them. I was very impressed and made a mental note that I would be sure to attend the event in the future, just as I attend Remembrance Day ceremonies every year.
In 1991, the Canadian government recognized April 28th as the official Day of Mourning for lost workers in Canada. On this day annually the flags on Parliament Hill will fly at half-mast and people will attend ceremonies and wear ribbons and black armbands all across Canada. It has been stated that “As much as this is a day to remember the dead it is also a call to protect the living.”
I feel that it is very important that all workers, and everyone else that is able to, make the effort to attend the Day of Mourning Ceremony at Marine Peace Park; and if you cannot attend, then wearing a black armband is also acceptable. This year at the ceremony I have been told that Devon Smith will be there; she is the Enderby farm worker who got caught in the power take off of an auger while helping her father build a fence. I look forward to hearing her story and hope that there will be a large group attending the ceremony in order to hear her speak as well.
The annual Day of Mourning ceremony for Salmon Arm and area will be held at Marine Peace Park on April 28th, at 11:00 a.m. Please try to attend if you possibly can.

A call to protect the living
By Tom Fletcher, Black PressPremier Christy Clark met Friday with the
finance ministers of China, India, the U.S. and other G20 countries to tell them about the suc-cess of B.C.’s carbon tax on fuels.
Clark said in a phone interview from Washington D.C. she was invited there by the World Bank, whose president Jim Yong Kim co-chaired the meeting along with United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon. Countries around the world are looking for greenhouse gas reduction strategies before the next UN climate conference in Paris next December, and Clark said there was keen inter-est in B.C.’s experience.
B.C.’s carbon tax was introduced in 2008, and is currently set at $30 per tonne of carbon diox-ide emissions. That translates to about seven cents a litre on gasoline and similar taxes on coal, natural gas and other fuels.
“We’ve created one of the broadest-based car-bon taxes in the world and used 100 per cent of the tax to reduce corporate, small business, and individual income taxes, and that’s resulted in robust economic growth compared to the rest of
the country,” Clark said.Clark put a five-year freeze on the carbon tax
after winning the B.C. Liberal leadership, and the government has wound up its carbon offset purchasing office and withdrawn from a group of U.S. states working on a regional carbon trad-ing plan.
Clark said B.C. will soon appoint a panel of “thought leaders” to see where the province can make further gains in greenhouse gas reduction. One of those leaders who is unlikely to be included is Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver, who has criticized Clark for reversing climate policy progress made under former premier Gordon Campbell.
Weaver and NDP leader John Horgan say the province’s decision to ease emissions rules for liquefied natural gas production is a big step backward.
The Green Party has campaigned to increase the carbon tax to $50 a tonne immediately, and keep raising it to promote alternatives to carbon fuels. The NDP has called for carbon tax reve-nues to be directed to transit and building improvements instead of returning it as tax cuts.
B.C. carbon tax gets international attention

One of the biggest dangers to someone lost or injured is PANIC
In his 30 years as a music teacher in the Kamloops school dis-trict, Don Bennett has an impressive record: his students do well at provincial and nation-al competitions, and his students regularly earn a spot in the American High School Honours performance series ensembles that perform at Carnegie Hall.
Don, who was this year’s Shuswap Music Festival adjudicator for bands, got into the world of music some-what by accident.
“I remember going through course selec-tion for grade 7 and I remember seeing the word ‘band’ and I, in fact, had no idea what it meant. I grew up in 100 Mile and I thought maybe it had to do with First Nations bands. When I found out it had instruments I thought it was very cool.”
As it turned out, Don had a good musi-cal ear and the teacher suggested the trom-bone.
“I loved it,” he says, smiling.
When he went to university his plan was to become a doctor, but right away he didn’t like the big impersonal lecture halls.
“I was still thinking how passionate I was about music and found it way more captivat-ing than anything else. When I thought about music, I liked the idea of being a teacher. I wanted to be an educa-tor.”
He went on to get
his Bachelor of Music as a trombonist at the University of BC and a MEd degree at the University of Victoria with a major in instru-mental conducting.
“I was fortunate to live in Kamloops where I started teach-ing early and I could play in a professional orchestra.”
Don has played with various orchestras and has been lead trom-bonist of the Kamloops Symphony Orchestra for 26 years until he recently stepped down to pursue other oppor-tunities.
As a music educator, Don says festivals are a wonderful opportu-nity for students. It gives them a goal as an individual musician, and as a band, they have to work closely together to achieve “an intense objective.”
Don has been to fes-tivals where bands, musicians, and choirs were competing with each other for ranking, and he says it really
isn’t helpful to stu-dents in the end.
“The Shuswap Music Festival has an educational focus – the students don’t get scores, they get valu-able and educational suggestions.”
Although Don has adjudicated other fes-tivals, this the first time he has come to
the Shuswap Music Festival.
“It’s fabulous and incredibly organized, and it’s wonderful to have.”
********The Shuswap Music
Festival has been a big part of Ashley Fong’s life for the past decade. This will be her last year of taking part as she is graduating and will be moving to the coast.
“It’s routine by now and it’s going to be gone – it’s such a weird feeling,” says Ashley.
Ashley started play-ing the piano when she was five years old, but she was familiar with the piano before that.
“My sister Karen was taking piano and I would follow her to her lessons.”
It was her sister who ‘encouraged’ her, making her practice way more than she wanted. She laughs about it and is grateful now, but back then, she would try to get out of it by taking pre-tend naps.
Ashley remembers her early appearances
at the festival. “My mom would dress me up in something really fancy. I didn’t really know what was going on – I wasn’t aware I was being judged or marked. Now she is grateful not only for the learning experi-ence but also for a yearly goal, and confi-dence.
“It has helped me be more confident in front of a crowd when I perform or speak. The festival has really helped me with that.”
Through the festival, she has gone on a few times to provincial competitions and played in front of even bigger crowds in other cities.
She practices about 10-14 hours a week but these last few months have been a little more intense as she just came back from her Associate of t he Roya l Conservatory (ARCT) exam, the highest aca-demic standings awarded by The Royal Conservatory.
“I had to prepare 40-45 minutes of six songs and perfect them. It usually takes two years to prepare – everything has to be polished.”
Even though she plans to go into busi-ness and technology management at BCIT, finishing her music education with this accomplishment was important to her.
Her repertoire included a partita by Bach, a sonata by Hayden, a nocturne by Chopin, a piece by Debussy, Scherzo by Morawetz, and an étude by Mendelssohn. She will be playing some of these for this year’s festival.
Like many musi-cians, she does have a special routine. Years ago she was wearing a pair of gloves just before a particularly good performance, and since then they have been her lucky charm for the festival.
For the last time she will go through her rit-
ual of putting on her ‘lucky gloves’ just before she goes on stage at the Shuswap Music Festival. Then she will hand them to her mother, Susan, before she walks over to the piano.
Her father, On, will be in the audience as he has throughout the years. It was their love and support that made this all possible, she says.
“Even if they’ve heard the piece 50 mil-lion times, they still smile and clap.”
Some portions of the Shuswap Music Festival are done, but from April 27-30 there will be senior piano and vocal performanc-es. These are free to the public but dona-tions are welcome. On Friday, May 1, the Night of Stars Gala Concert will be held at the First United Church at 7:00 p.m. Admission is $10 per person or $20 per fam-ily.

Research shows that we basically have the same genetic make-up as our ancestors did thou-sands of years ago. While our genes change at an incredibly slow pace, over the past 100 years the amount of physical, chemical and emotional stress we all face every day has increased expo-nentially. One can easily see we aren’t sufficient-ly adapting to the amount of stress we face on a daily basis. It is also obvious we are not coping well when we look at the ever-increasing rates of the most serious chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autism, and auto immune diseases, etc. –despite the billions of dollars spent on sickness care each year.
So what is the solution? The only way to avoid going down the road of sickness and disease requires constant focussed action to reduce our stress through better lifestyle choices.
Eat right! Nutritious, clean food is the fuel that runs every part our body, including our immune system. If one really looks into health and nutri-tion, almost every disease has a major or minor connection to what a person consumes.
Focus more on your breath. If you don’t think deep breathing is important for stress reduction, try living without it and see how you make out... Deep relaxed breathing literally blows away stress!
See your chiropractor. Ever wonder why you have friends who always see their chiropractor regularly? It’s not my favorite “wives’ tale” that once you see a chiropractor, you always have to go back. People choose to get adjusted regularly because it releases stress from their nervous sys-tem, allowing their body to function better and more efficiently. That’s like saying I’m never going to my dentist for a cleaning because once you do, you have to keep going back. It’s just good for your health.
Not all of the solutions are physical. We also need to look after our self above the spine and between our ears. One great way to do this is to do what you love. Write down what really inspires and excites you, then make a conscious plan to include these activities in your day.
Make sure your point of view comes from a place of gratitude for everything you do. The next time the lawn needs to be mowed or the gutters need cleaning, rather than grumble about all the work, reconsider it so you are happy that you are fortunate enough to live in a place where you can have a roof over your head and a home to care for. Something as basic as housing is not a given for millions of people in our world. There are people who would give anything to have their own gutter to clean or a window to wash.
This is just a few simple ways to reduce stress in your life. Practice these and your own ver-sions every day. The only side effect will be improved health.

April 16, 2015 – Vancouver, BC – On Thursday, April 30, thousands of people across British Columbia and the Yukon will proudly wear their favourite pair of jeans on Jeans Day™ in support of BC Children’s Hospital.
The hospital hopes to raise more than $1 million through the sale of Jeans Day™ buttons for $5 and lapel pins for $20, available at Jeans Day™ official retailers across the province: Save-On-Foods, Overwaitea Foods, PriceSmart Foods, Cooper’s Foods, Urban Fare, Costco, Thrifty Foods and London Drugs.
“Jeans Day™ has a huge impact on care at BC Children’s Hospital because every year thousands of individuals and organizations in communities across BC and the Yukon decide that children matter, and that they need our help,” said Teri Nicholas, president and CEO of BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. “It really does take a team to sup-port sick and injured children and we are grateful to everyone who joins that team with the purchase of a button or lapel pin. It’s a small gesture that makes a big difference.”
Jeans Day™ 2015 buttons and lapel pins are available from office champions at many participating
organizations. Individuals without access to a school or office champi-on can register at the Jeans Day™ website or pick up a button at an official retailer in their community.
Since 1990 Jeans Day™ has raised more than $18 million for BC Children’s Hospital. Money raised this year will go to the Excellence in Child Health Fund, which supports the most urgent health care needs at BC Children’s Hospital. Visit the Jeans Day™ website at www.jeans-day.ca for more information or to register.
BC Children’s Hospital is the province’s only full-service acute-care hospital dedicated to serving close to one million children living in BC and the Yukon. All children who are seriously ill or injured are referred to Children’s Hospital and are either treated at the hospital facility in Vancouver or, with con-sultation from Children’s special-ists, in their home community. Last year, more than 84,000 children were treated at Children’s Hospital. Funds raised by the foundation are used to support BC Children’s Hospital, its research institute and Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children. For more information visit www.bcchf.ca and follow @BCCHF on Twitter.

Wear jeans for sick kidsYou never can tell when School District 83’s
French Immersion program is going to be in high demand. Year after year, parents have lined up outside the District Education Centre to ensure that their child gets a spot in either the early or late French immersion programs.
This year, interested families were asked to attend the French immersion information ses-sions in March, and if numbers allowed, they could register their children right then and there to avoid the lines. This went well, and it turns out that there are still spots available at both elementary and middle school levels.
At Bastion Elementary School, there are cur-rently 12 spots left for early French immersion, in Kindergarten. Interested families are asked to contact Principal Isabelle Gervais, at 250-832-3741.
At Shuswap Middle School, there are current-ly five remaining spots in the Late Immersion program, where students begin French immer-sion in Grade 6. Families interested in finding out more about the program and/or to begin the registration process are asked to call Vice Principal Carla Schneider, at 250-832-6031.

EDITORS REFUSED TO USE ‘MANURE’ IN COMING EVENTS
In 1996, an annual bake and manure sale was held by the Shuswap 4-H Beef Club. When the young club reporter submitted it to this paper, which I owned at the time, I chuckled, having been raised on a Saskatchewan farm, and printed it. Fern Muik, club leader, wrote to thank me on April 16, 1996. These is part of her long letter:
“Hats off to your Shoppers’ Guide for printing infor-mation about the annual bake and manure sale correctly in Coming Events. In the past, other papers in Salmon Arm repeatedly misprinted our 4-H club reporter’s infor-mation. How disheartening for the child who has done his/her job correctly as elected, to find that the editor has cut out important information.”
ENDERBY’S PLANT & MANURE SALE ON MAY 2Goat manure will be sold at $2.50/bag by Enderby’s
Garden Club. Cash only, please. Proceeds from the annu-al plant and manure sale will be used for community projects such as tree-planting, Cornerstone Garden main-tenance, and helping with gardens at Parkview Place and Granville Getaway. The sale will take place at the Gazebo at Riverside Park on Saturday, May 2 from 8 to 11 a.m. For more info, call Dianne at 250-838-6048.
WATCH OSPREY CAMERA IN KAMLOOPSAND GOOSE CAMERA IN EDMONTON
Mama birds don’t mind if we watch them as they sit on a nest of eggs, because they don’t know a camera is cap-turing every move. WildSafe BC was hoping a bald eagle would take over a nest at a farm near Kamloops where a webcam was set-up to watch a family being raised, but mama flew over it and left. An osprey claimed it and made repairs. On Facebook, search for Kamloops Naturalist Club and scroll down to webcam view.
In Edmonton, a condo owner saw a mother goose had taken over his tomato planter on the 10th floor balcony, and is sitting on five eggs. The Canada goose is protected under federal law, so moving the bird and her eggs was not an option. He set-up a webcam so he will know when the goslings hatch within the first week of May. When the babies are a few days old, mama will go down to the sidewalk and call her babies to jump. That’s when the condo owner will gather the five and deliver them to their mother. http://benjaminlavin.blogspot.ca
THERESA CAPUTO’S TICKETS ARE $39 TO $89
Tickets are still available for the Long Island Medium’s appearance at Prospera Place in Kelowna on June 9. Last week I reported that a woman tried to buy tickets to see Theresa Caputo on the day of release but the prices were $115 to $148 and only 20 were left. When another woman read the report in this column, she said she tried buying tickets through Prospera’s website, and kept get-ting the expensive rates. After a few tries she realized they were for a popular musical concert. She went to my earlier column, used www.selectyourtickets.com and was able to buy two tickets at $39 on April 10, the day they were issued. I checked on April 20 and found the com-plete range of tickets is available. We in the Okanagan are last-minute people, aren’t we?
DOUBLE AMPUTEE NEEDS A LIFT VANVal Starchuk of Salmon Arm wants to help her step-
dad. He has been a diabetic for 30 years, is a double amputee, and needs a used lift van so he can be more mobile. Peter McPherson worked at the 7-Eleven store in Salmon Arm for many years, and before retiring he became a member of Citizens Patrol. His wife Riva man-aged Southside Mini Storage in the industrial park, and for many years accepted delivery of flyers for Lakeshore News to be inserted there and distributed to homes.
Peter and Riva moved to Vernon, as Salmon Arm was too difficult to get around, and they live by Schubert Centre so they can walk to places as they have no trans-portation. Val takes them in her small car, but recently one of his artificial legs fell off when trying to get into the car and it was incredibly stressful for all three. The van would be driven by Val or her mother Riva. Peter is anx-ious to visit their daughters and grandsons in Coquitlam.
Val can be contacted at [email protected]. She has started an online account where donations can be deposited towards the van, and where you can see pic-tures and read Peter’s story: www.gofundme.com/r67q7g4.
A HORSE ASKED IF I HAD A SORE SHOULDERI spent April 15 with healing horses on sacred land off
Highway 5A as part of an eight-day Equinisity Retreat. Shortly after following owner Liz Mitten Ryan into the paddock where the 14 horses spend their mornings, one came within my space, then turned her head to her left shoulder. Liz asked if I was having shoulder pain. I didn’t think so, but the horse did it again. The 40-minute drive along Highway 5A from Kamloops towards Merritt, then
along dirt roads was stressful to my left shoulder. The horse sensed it.
From birth, colts see Liz as a second mother and they can talk to one another. All 14 horses at Equinisity have been born into a loving interface with humans and they all trust and love interacting with people. A pregnant mare came to Liz one day when she was sitting in a lawn chair and said it’s time. Liz asked if the baby was ready to come, and just then, the mare’s water broke. The two ran to the birthing stable and 20 minutes later the colt was born.
MOM, I HAVE A PROBLEM, SAID A HORSEWhen Liz and I were talking near one of the sturdy
wooden healing tables, a mare backed to the table near Liz and moved from side to side. Liz understood. She put her hand between the mare’s hind legs and found two ticks, which she gently unscrewed and killed.
There is a feeling of love in the paddock. The horses know of no other way. In the morning they meditate in the barn, and will rest up to an hour. After lunch they go to explore the 320 acres of untouched forests, lakes, and hillsides full of energy, then return at 6:30 the next morn-ing to teach and heal participants of spiritual retreats.

Duma’s cousinDuma has a cousin! She’s ruled the roost for
the last couple of years, but now she has a little competition from, of all things, a dog.
Last week my younger sister’s family got a puppy. This has created a frenzy amongst my kids and my nieces and nephews. They didn’t get this excited when we all went to Disneyland! If I’d known that, I could have saved myself a lot of money by encouraging my sister to buy a dog years ago.
With the introduction of a dog to the family; everyone was wondering what Duma would think of this new addition. So a couple nights ago my one niece and nephew were over and brought “Gertie.” Immediately, all the talk was about introducing Duma to her canine counter-part.
After spending most of the evening out chas-ing mice, Duma eventually came back to the house and everyone gathered for the grand intro-duction.
Initially, Duma calmly stood there as Gertie waddled up to her wagging her tail. Both were very quiet as they sized each other up. After a lengthy standoff Duma bowed her head and rubbed her face up against Gertie’s.
We were shocked! We thought for sure Duma would simply smack Gertie in the chops, stick
her nose in the air and walk off. Instead she was warm and friendly. It was almost like she knew Gertie was a puppy and her nurturing instincts kicked in.
Everyone was excited until Gertie decided to bark at her. At that point, Duma ran under a vehi-cle to hide. Gertie again waddled after her, but this time Duma looked at the pooch and gave her a couple of smacks to the nose.
It was like, “Okay, you’re cute and I was going to be nice, but now you’re just bugging me. Oh yeah, and by the way, I’m the one in charge around this place!”
All of Duma’s sudden snootiness didn’t deter Gertie who persisted in trying to make Duma her best friend forever, but Duma wasn’t having much to do with it.
So having made the introduction, Duma decid-ed to take off and get back to hunting mice. At that point Gertie was more interested in attack-ing my teenager’s pant leg anyway.
All in all, it was a successful introduction and we figured we’d better ease them into this new friendship. Stay tuned to see what Duma does next time!

‘HAVE A HEART’ RADIOTHONJoin us all day Thursday April 30th at
By Leah BlainThey don’t need money; just lots of muscle.The Salmon Arm Canada Day Children’s Festival
organizers are putting out an urgent call to the com-munity to help with the grunt work of setting up the tents, picnic tables, stages and bouncy houses that are used for this wildly popular family event. And they also need help putting everything away at the end.
“We have no problem fund-raising,” says Kari Wilkinson, “or even getting 5,000 people there. But it’s the setup and take-down where we need help. For the last six years there has been a core crew of 12 people. We wrangle husbands and kids to do the whole thing over two days. It’s more oner-ous and we have to get more help if it’s going to be sustain-able.”
The planning committee would like to find approximately 25-30 people to lighten the load. Setup on June 30th could potentially be completed in four hours, while take-down on July 1st can be accomplished in 3 hours or less, depending on the amount of volunteers.
“We unpack the container and get out the games, bouncy houses (they’re heavy), and put them in place and nail them down. And the arena has to be set up for the indoor activities. If a group could spare a few staff members for a few hours that would be great,” says Wilkinson. “We don’t mind
youth coming to help us but they need an adult with them to supervise.”
The organizing committee does give certificates to any students who help out and that can count toward their community service for school credits.
The festival runs from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on July 1st.
“We also need help running the games, so if anyone’s willing to do that, we’re looking for help.”
This will be the sixth year the festival has been running at this site. Typically some 5,000 peo-ple come through the doors.
“It’s mostly free,” says Wilkinson. “We don’t charge admission and the bouncy hous-es, wagon rides, activities, and entertainment is free. All chil-dren get one free ticket for the games and if they’re wearing red, they get another free ticket.
The carnival games tickets are 50 cents.”There are donation bins on the site and the dona-
tions help cover the costs.The festival will be going ahead this year for
certain, says Wilkinson, but they really have to have more help if this popular festival is going to continue.
“At 3 o’clock on July 1st we need help putting the stuff away. There are a few of us there, but we’re exhausted. If we have people helping, we can be done in a few hours.”
To volunteer, send an email to [email protected]. Photo contributed.

LOOKINGFORTHESE?
As promised in the 2013 Speech from the Throne, our Government has introduced legislation to make sure a “life sentence means a life sen-tence,” for those who commit the most heinous crimes. The Life Means Life Act would ensure that offenders who are convicted of heinous crimes or those who are convicted of high treason will be imprisoned for the rest of their natural lives with no access to parole.
A life sentence under this Act would be applied to premeditated murder involving sexual assault; a kidnapping-related offence; a terrorism-related offence; the killing of police officers or corrections officers; or conduct of a particularly brutal nature.
In addition to the mandatory sentences men-tioned above, courts would have the discretionary option to impose life sentences without parole in any other first degree murder case or in cases where an offender, previously convicted of murder or of an international killing under the Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act, commits a second degree murder.
Eliminating parole eligibility would eliminate the trauma that parole hearings cause to the fami-
lies and loved ones of their victims. To address constitutional concerns, this legislation will permit a criminal serving life without parole to apply to the Minister of Public Safety for exceptional release after serving no less than 35 years. Decisions on petitions of this kind will rest with the Federal Cabinet, upon the recommendation of the Minister of Public Safety.
The proposed legislation on life sentences with-out parole would align Canada’s criminal justice approach with likeminded countries such as the United Kingdom, New Zealand, the United States, and Australia.
My Private Member’s Bill, C-587, which I tabled four months ago is aimed at establishing similar ineligibility for those convicted of the most heinous murders. The Government’s Life Means Life Act will fulfill the objective of my Bill and I will let C-587 die on the Order Paper to allow the Government’s Bill to be completed as soon as pos-sible before the coming election.

Not far from the ancient Malian city of Timbuktu, now ruled by the religious fundamen-talists, proud cattle herder Kidane (Ibrahim Ahmed aka Pino) lives peacefully in the dunes with his wife Satima (Toulou Kiki), his daughter Toya (Layla Walet Mohamed), and Issan (Mehdi Ag Mohamed), their twelve-year-old shepherd. In town, the people suffer, powerless, from the regime of terror imposed by the Jihadists deter-mined to control their faith. Music, soccer, ciga-rettes, and even laughter have been banned. The women have become shadows but resist with dignity. Every day, the new improvised courts issue tragic and absurd sentences. Kidane and his family are being spared the chaos that pre-vails in Timbuktu. But their destiny changes abruptly in this stunningly rendered film from a master of world cinema; directed and written by Abderrahmane Sissako.
Timbuktu shows at 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 25th at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

Wow! Hurrah! Isn’t it great! Canada now has its own secret police force. We have finally caught up to those progressive, enlightened countries who have had secret police for ages. Why, our government assures us that our won-derful, new secret police force will save us from all these horrible terrorists hidden here in Canada. And to think that I used to believe that the police couldn’t find their own behinds, even if they searched with both hands for a year! Oh well, that’s all over with now. We have a great new defense, the Royal Canadian Secret Police. Hmmm. But what about all those stories, refu-gees from communist and fascist countries have been telling us? Can you believe it? People escaping from countries like Russia, the Ukraine, East Germany, etc., say that the secret police aren’t nice guys. They tend to come calling on your home at midnight, haul you off to a deten-
tion centre, and you disappear. But that’s silly, the R.C.S.P. would never do that (would they?). I wonder where the R.C.S.P. will build their huge, needed spy and interrogation centre? Having to monitor everyone’s phones, comput-ers, writings, talks, mosques, protests, marches, etc., will take a massive spy network. I guess I’d better be careful of what I say or write. Don’t use such words as “bomb,” “shooting,” “terrorist,” or say anything nasty about the government or the oil cartels. I better learn to keep my mouth shut, especially not to criticize the government who knows best. I wonder where they would interrogate me, and what water boarding would be like. Come to think about it, I better not sign this letter or I may be questioned by the R.C.S.P. for it.

How can electricity be dirty? It’s not like hav-ing a dirty car. Otherwise known as Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), it is the presence of toxic frequencies (harmonics) run-ning in the electrical system of a home or office. The normal frequency of electric current in North America is 60 Hz or cycles per second. Once upon a time, many years ago, we had clean 60 Hz power, however; our addiction to elec-tronic gadgets has created numerous additional frequencies on our electrical power system’s supply.
These additional toxic frequencies travel through the air as wireless energy that pollutes the internal environment of a home or office. We can’t see it, taste it or smell it, but virtually everyone can feel how peaceful and calm it is when there is a power failure. Humans can feel wireless radiation of this sort if they simply pay attention. So why would we care if we are being exposed to dirty electricity?
There is solid science supporting the likeli-hood that constant and chronic exposure to this form of radiation has a significant detrimental effect on health. The book to read is called Dirty Electricity by Dr. Sam Milham, a pioneer and proponent of the subject. Elimination of dirty electricity and other factors of electromagnetic pollution in one’s home or office inevitably leads to improved health in many areas.
Dirty electricity appears to have a significant effect on both the nervous system and the immune system. During and after the installation of electrical current into homes throughout North America, significant increases were seen in dis-eases such as leukemia, various other cancers, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and other neurological challenges. The most important
concept to understand in this field is that of the cumulative nature of these exposures. The lon-ger one is exposed, the more detrimental effect.
Cause and effect can be difficult to connect because it takes years in many cases for a disease to develop. Unfortunately, doctors are not edu-cated in the detrimental effects of electromagnet-ic pollution and consequently the cause of these diseases is rarely determined. The best way to cure any of these diseases is not to get them in the first place. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure is a very important concept. Reducing one’s exposure to electromagnetic pollution while still living in modern society is a worthy achievement. In order to accomplish this one must become aware that these energies are causing significant amounts of disease and that exposures can be limited very easily.
Ross Andersen DC, N.D. practiced chiroprac-tic and naturopathic medicine in Ontario for 30 years working frequently with clients who had electricity related health challenges. He works with all aspects of electromagnetic pollution now, including radiofrequency, magnetic fields, electric fields, dirty electricity, body voltage and light smog. Dr. Andersen was a key speaker here in Salmon Arm, March 21st, at the doctors’ pre-sentations, “Living in the Electromagnetic Age”- A Sleeping Giant . He has seen amazing changes in people who clean up their electro-environ-ment. He will be doing home assessments in Salmon Arm, Saturday and Sunday April 25th and 26th. There are spaces still available!

It’s not every day the premier of B.C. drops by for a visit, but that’s exactly what happened for diners at the Shuswap Pie Company on April 1.
No, it was not an April Fool’s joke, even though a Salmon Arm radio station announced that a report about Premier Christy Clark visiting the riding that day was nothing but a well-timed prank.
But nobody in the Shuswap should have been surprised that Premier Clark graced us with her presence. This was already her fifth visit to the Shuswap since she became premier in 2011 and she obviously loves com-ing here to meet residents from all walks of life.
While here, Premier Clark wowed about 130 guests at a Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce luncheon at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort, which was followed by a visit to Canoe Forest Products where the pre-mier keenly observed the major local employer’s new $14-million lathe line.
The lathe line is expected to be fully operational next month, and its addition is a strong signal of the con-
fidence Canoe Forest Products is showing in Salmon Arm, Sicamous and area.
Next was an unscheduled stop at the Shuswap Pie Company in Salmon Arm, where customers did a dou-ble-take when the premier of B.C. stopped by tables for a casual chat. It was an encounter those folks won’t soon forget and another example of Premier Clark’s easy charm with reg-ular people.
The Shuswap Pie Company is a star in its own right having been fea-tured recently on the Food Network Canada program You Gotta Eat Here!
In the evening the premier was the guest of honour at a Shuswap Riding Association function for about 160 guests.
It was a great day all around. The early spring weather was fantastic and Premier Clark clearly has a soft spot for the Shuswap and its resi-dents. In fact, I think it’s safe to say Premier Clark has spent more time in the Shuswap than all previous pre-miers combined.
Rest assured it won’t be her final visit, and that’s no joke.

SALMON ARM – The provincial government is providing $14,000 to the Columbia Shuswap Invasive Species Society to help control the spread of invasive plants, Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo announced today.
This is one of 29 grants, totalling $1,702,000, that are being distributed province-wide to local governments, regional invasive species commit-tees and the Invasive Species Council of B.C. to assist with their activities and support the objec-tives of the provincial Invasive Plant Program.
“Invasive species negatively impact our natu-ral environment,” Kyllo said. “Efforts to reduce invasive species help to protect the natural eco-systems of the Shuswap region, and prevent future encroachment of non-native plants.”
The funding will be invested in activities such as raising public awareness of invasive plants, surveying invasive plant populations and active-ly treating high-priority sites to control the spread of these plants.
Invasive plants are species that have been introduced into British Columbia from other areas. They displace native vegetation and can cause considerable economic and environmental damage. Some pose a health risk to people (e.g. skin irritation). Invasive plants can disrupt natu-ral ecosystems, reduce biodiversity, increase soil erosion, alter soil chemistry and adversely affect commercial crops.
The Invasive Plant Program identifies sites where invasive plant species have been found and responds rapidly to contain and eradicate them before they become established and start spreading.
This funding is in addition to the $735,000 already allocated by the Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations for invasive plant control and management in 2015-16.

By Andi KingThe Shuswap Sharp Shooters U12 girl’s devel-
opment team defeated Vernon 4-0 on Sunday at Marshall Fields in Vernon. Shuswap took control of the game quickly with an early finish from Jordan King. Lys Milne passed the ball to King, who cut past a Vernon defender and slotted the ball near post with a well-placed leftie. Although most of the play took place in Shuswap’s attack-ing third, the score was 1-0 at half. Shuswap continued to apply pressure and pass effectively as a team. The second goal of the game came on a set piece when Laura Hall took a well-placed corner kick into the box. Brooklyn Davidson received the ball with a one-touch pass to Sophia Ruckle, who buried it in the back of the net. Milne displayed excellent composure when she found the back of the net after a scuffle in front of the Vernon goal making it 3-0. King finished off the scoring for Shuswap, when she buried the ball with her left foot making it 4-0. Alana O’Dell recorded the assist. Julia Hart and Braidy Parkes were both stellar in goal and shared the shutout.
Sunday Duplicate Club’s results for April 19 are as follows: tied for first place, Edie and Jack Swanson, and Nan McAdam and Norma Hobbs; in second place, Sande and Milford Berger; and tied for third place, Ona Bouchard and Doreen Roberts, and Naomi and Eugene Ogino.
The Sunday Duplicate Club will stop for the summer and resume play in October.

U12’s defeat VernonNew wind farms Our advertising works!VANCOUVER – BC Hydro is adding new
clean wind power to the provincial electricity grid, including two new wind farms in the Okanagan – the first ever for the region. Three agreements were announced today for new developments near West Kelowna, Summerland and Taylor that will provide enough electricity to power 14,000 homes a year.
The agreements, with White Rock-based developer Zero Emission Energy Developments Inc., were signed under BC Hydro’s Standing Offer program – a program that offers a simpli-fied, streamlined procurement process for small clean energy projects in B.C.
The three projects will add about 45 mega-watts of clean wind capacity to BC Hydro’s system. Once built, the projects will bring BC Hydro’s total capacity of wind power to more than 700 megawatts.
Construction is scheduled to start late spring or early summer and will take about 18 months. Construction for each project will create between 25 and 50 job opportunities.
BC Hydro now has energy purchase agree-ments for 20 projects under the Standing Offer program that include solar, wind, biomass, bio-gas and hydro power. To be eligible, projects must be 15 megawatts or less in size.
After your weekend sports event, provide us with scores and stand-ings and we’ll publish them in the following issue. Deadline: Tues. noon • Phone, fax or e-mail
Give us your scores!

Again the other day I was helping a gal choose a grey wall colour for the transition from the brown living room to the envisioned grey one. She had tried a few greys on one wall, but the blue undertones didn’t work at all and she was stuck. This one was easy; there was only one choice. Read on.
A traditional way of choosing a colour scheme suggests using an inspiration piece – some fab-ric, a painting, a favourite pillow, something with a print containing the colours you want to use. From this you choose the background colour for your walls, the second most promi-nent colour for your main pieces of furniture, and the third most prominent as your accent colour. Foolproof. This gives you a solid 3-colour scheme, often something like white, red and blue; cream, brown and green or blue, yellow and white.
This method doesn’t work so well when you want a monochromatic or two-colour scheme, which are by far the most popular schemes now. For example; the grey trend dictates that grey be paired with black or white with jewel-toned accent colours. Rooms decorated in this “Parisian fresh” feel are almost totally devoid of pattern, so there is not necessarily an inspiration piece to follow. Often you will start with a picture of a room, or one piece of furniture, or a duvet cover, or just the desire to have grey walls.
So, here is how to choose a grey wall colour. Believe it or not, the colour of your white trim plays a significant part in the selection.
Grey has undertones of either blue, green or purple. If you can’t decide what the undertone is, put the grey paint swatch beside some samples of clear blue, green and purple – one will blend with your grey better. That’s the undertone.
Your white trim will be either true white or cream-white. If you put blue or purple grey with true white trim, the trim looks clean and crisp, which is probably what you want if you are going for the grey trend. If you put blue or purple grey with cream-white trim, the trim looks dirty.
Green-grey is the grey for cream-white trim.So, if your trim is white, you should use blue
or purple grey. If your trim is cream white, you get green-grey.
My client quickly understood that her cream-white trim was the stumbling block, and why the blue-grey didn’t work. I can’t wait to see the transformation.
I’ll put some examples of these paint colours on the website, Designsewlutions.ca

Cycling enthusiasts welcome the return of warmer temperatures and longer daylight at this time of year. It means one can get out more eas-ily on the open roads for pleasure and exercise. And this area is a 'pedal paradise' as a headline declares in the Shuswap-North Okanagan Cycle Touring pamphlet published by Shuswap Tourism.
There are indeed many excellent routes in this region that are outlined in this brochure. One of my favourites is from Blind Bay to Eagle Bay and Wild Rose Bay. If you like pretty lake views with just a few intermittent short to moderate hills to climb, then this route might appeal to you as well. The complete out and return dis-tance is about 50 kilometres, so it generally takes a few hours if you don't particularly rush it, but you can determine the turnaround dis-tance you go and at what speed you ride, so it really can fit whatever time you have or the level of fitness you want to achieve.
Parking is available in the CSRD parking lot in Blind Bay by the public beach. It's a short distance east along Blind Bay Road to the junc-tion of Balmoral Road and the start of Eagle Bay Road. The road is basically level along the east side of Blind Bay past the shore and homes. It climbs a bit over a hump at Reedman Point, then it's back to being mostly level, with a couple of rises and falls, as it winds along the shore towards Eagle Bay. This section is probably my favourite one, as I find it particularly scenic with views to Copper Island and across the lake, as well as to interesting varied vegetation and some attractive homes. Vehicle traffic along the road can be heavier in the busy summer tourist sea-son, but in the shoulder seasons it tends to be quieter with only intermittent traffic, so you have the opportunity to admire the scenery.
As you approach the community of Eagle Bay a moderate climb takes you away from the lake-shore up to a higher area with more homes as well as the Eagle Bay store and other Eagle Bay services. A couple of kilometres later the road returns to the lake for a bit before leaving it again near Armstrong Point. You can continue on to the end of the road or turn around at any point. Wild Rose Bay Community Park can be a good place to stop for a rest or to explore before heading back the same way as you came. Other small parks along the route, such as Shannon
Beach Park can also be checked out. If it is warm enough you can go for a swim or sit on the beach for a while to soak up the sun and atmosphere.
I've cycled this route several times over the past few years and have always enjoyed it. When the weather is warm but not too hot, and a true blue sky reflects on a deep blue lake, it is a per-fect time to hop on your bicycle and enjoy the beauty of the excellent Blind Bay to Wild Rose Bay route.
For more detailed information on this route and others get the Shuswap-North Shuswap cycle touring pamphlet from the tourism office or local bike shops or go to the website www.shuswaptourism.ca and click on guides and maps and then the cycle touring link to down-load the pamphlet. Happy cycling!

Spring Yard Waste CollectionApril 27, 2015
The City of Salmon Arm will be providing yard wastecollection services on Mon, April 27, 2015.
All items (including branches) must be placed(unbundled) in compostable (kraft) paper bags. Bags canbe found at local retailers. Please check with retailers for availability;many sold out during the 2014 Fall Yard Waste Collection.
The following items will be accepted for collection: clippings (grass, lawn, and hedge), sod,flowers, weeds (non-invasive), leaves, vegetable stacks, shrubs, and shrub/tree branches. Shruband tree branches may be up to 1” (2.5 cm) in diameter and 3’ (91 cm) in length.
Materials will be accepted in unlimited quantities, provided each bag does not weigh more than20 kg (44 lbs).
Bags must be placed curbside by 7 AM on April 27, 2015. If participation is high, someneighbourhoods may be collected subsequent days. The Fall 2014 Collection was completedentirely on the collection day; place your bags on time to avoid disappointment.
the beginning to try and under-stand types of lines, and what’s best suited for you.
All nylon lines are produced by heating polymer pellets to melting point, then the liquid is forced through a “spinneret” or metal plate. Then, varying amounts of things are added such as chemical stabilizers, hardeners, lubricants, dyes, to determine flexibility, shock resistance, tensile strength, memory, and colour. The per-fect line would have the diame-ter of a spider web, and be highly visible when dry, but invisible in the water. It would be tough, and abra-sion-resistant. Of course, this fish-ing line doesn’t exist, so most of us compromise, and purchase one line for several uses.
Locally, for our trout, the best all round choice is still Trilene XL. Soft, tough, great for casting from shore, and still fishing. Big fish? Go for TX or Iron Silk.
Today, monofilament lines still remain one of the most popular fishing line choices. But let’s take a look at braided lines. This line is made of gel-spun polyethylene and is thin-ner than mono line. It has little stretch, and requires more care when tying knots.
Technology being what it is, braided line was heat-treated, creating a super or “fusion” line. It’s a good choice when long line trolling, or casting into rocky areas. The problem? No stretch, no sensitivity.
The newest fusion line, like Fireline XDS, combines fusion technology with a line coating, creating a rounder, smoother surface. It’s a superior line for
big game fish-in.’
One of the new entries into the parade of fishing lines is Fluorocarbon, made from a combination of fluorine/carbon atoms that reflects light much the same way as water does. The result is a clear line that is almost invisible in the water, and is available in line as light as 2lb test. Lines like Berkley Vanish/Stren Fluorocarbon, have the same diameter-to-break-strength ratio as Trilene XL. The key here? In both
cases, line diameter is import-ant in making a choice of lines. Why does this matter? Thicker lines ride higher in the water. Getting big spoons/lures/plugs down means weighs or a lot more line. With fusion lines like Fireline, you get your lure, plug, or spoon deeper and fast-er with less line out–a word to the wise! Monofilament lines are most susceptible to abra-sion/UV ray damage and should be re-spooled once a season. Gel-spun polyethelene super lines are least resistant, and will keep for several years if kept clean and not abused. Finally, always spit on, or wet your line before tightening your knots! Hope this info
helps young anglers. Don’t scrimp on price for quality of line!
Here and there in the Shuswap
Pictured are the basic lures/bucktail imitation flies, gener-ally used out on the Shuswap/Adams/Mara lakes, during the salmonid fry/smolt migration. They can be obtained at Westside stores, and other out-lets.
Fishing report: Gardom: Try trolled tiny flatfish, willow leaf/worm. Cast or trolled wet flies like leech pat-terns, Spratley’s. White
Lake: trolled wil-lowleaf/worm. Tiny gold, skunk flatfish. Fly anglers are now into chironomid fish-ing with a passion. Phillips Lake: chiron-omids are working well. Also try tiny flatfish, black/brown leech. Dry (Skimikin) Lake: trolled wet flies, wedding ring/worm. Swan Lake (Vernon): trolled
wedding ring/worm. Trolled black leech/brown/olive. Tiny flatfish, various colours. Most other lakes fall into the same pattern as above for fishing except for Shuswap Lake. Rainbows on this big lake are after salmonid fry, so trolling small bucktail imitations, or small lures are the way to go.
Good luck in all your angling ventures. Be safe, and use com-mon sense. For those needing the Pleasure Craft Operator’s Card, it can be obtained online anytime
Remember…A good day on the water fishin’ is better than any day at the office!

There was a loud zing then a pop as the fishing line leader I should have changed for new, awhile back, left for parts unknown with the fly and trout!. It was a good fish, too, darn it!
It was back in 1938, when Wallace Corothers, first invented a thing called nylon–a generic name for the family of synthetic polyam-ides. He was employed by a nation-al company called DuPont. Anglers had to wait till 1946, though, to have it mass produced into fishing line.
Today, ask a dozen anglers to name their favourite line and you’ll get twelve different answers! But, going back, the first fishing lines consisted of braided silk, and twist-ed linen or cotton, which had to be dried to prevent rotting. Leaders were fashioned from long strands of horse tail hair. Most were “catgut,”
made from sheep intestines.Companies like Rapala,
Shakespeare. Power-pro, and Berkeley, began to test and research better line through the ages. Each, of course, claimed theirs was supe-rior. Although stiff and thick, by today’s standards, it was a great improvement from early lines!
Fishing line today is state-of-the-art, like SpiderWire, or TUF-Line These two are unique, as they are a copolymer, or combination of two polymers. Too, they are strong in strength-to-diameter ratio. Overall, now, the poorest quality lines found in bargain bins are still very much superior to most early monofila-ment line.
Walk into any sporting goods store and there is an array of fishing line in brightly-coloured boxes like, Stren, Trilene, Fireline, and Berkley (Gorrilla tough), so let’s start from

PeaceRomans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with
God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
If a poll were taken today, asking people what they desired most, many would reply, "Peace of heart and mind." Thousands of people are under
a doctor’s care whose physical problems are a result of emotional conflict. Although many are advised to take sedatives and sleeping pills, such medication does not give the patient peace. Many of us fill our lives with activities, our schedules with commitments, our ears with noise and our minds with information to drown out our soul’s persistent cry for peace.Yet God’s Word promises us that there IS an inner peace for us today. It
begins with a personal relationship with Jesus Christ by faith.Read the verse above again. When we are at peace WITH God we can
experience the peace OF God in our daily lives. Consider the answers that Edward Henry Bickersteth gives to the questions he raises about peace in his poem Peace, Perfect Peace.
Peace, perfect peace, in this dark world of sin?The blood of Jesus whispers peace within.
Peace, perfect peace, by thronging duties pressed?To do the will of Jesus, this is rest.
Peace, perfect peace, with sorrows surging round?On Jesus’ bosom naught but calm is found.
Peace, perfect peace, ‘mid suffering’s sharpest throes?The sympathy of Jesus breathes repose.
Peace, perfect peace, with loved ones far away?In Jesus’ keeping we are safe, and they.
Peace, perfect peace, our future all unknown?Jesus we know, and He is on the throne.
Peace, perfect peace, death shad’wing us and ours?Jesus has vanquished death and all its pow’rs.It is enough: earth’s struggles soon shall cease,And Jesus calls us to Heav’n’s perfect peace.
Submitted by: Titus Cooley
A great many people are trying to make peace, but that has already been done. God has not left it for us to do; all we have to do is to enter
into it. - D.L. Moody
Meditations
Dear Reena,I am wondering if you would mind clarifying
something from your books. The leather in my parents’ sofa is starting to dry out. As such, they want to treat it with a moisturizer. One of your books suggests using olive oil to moisturize leather, and another one of your books suggests using cold cream. Which would be the best for what they need it for? If you use olive oil, wouldn’t it leave a sticky residue and maybe even start smelling bad (rancid oil)? What is cold cream, and would it work for this application? Thanks in advance for your help with this! Mark
Dear Mark,Both olive oil and cold cream are great options
for leather, just be sure to test both on an incon-spicuous area first. Apply a small amount of one or the other to a soft cloth and wipe on leather in a circular motion. Remove all excess. Leather is porous, therefore the grease will absorb into the fabric without sitting on the surface, leaving a smell or attracting dust. Cold cream is an emul-sion of water and certain fats, usually including beeswax and various scent agents, designed to smooth skin and remove makeup. You will find cold cream where facial products are sold.
Dear Reena,I am wondering if you have a remedy for
cleaning tea stains off of bone china cups and saucers. I don’t want to use anything that will take the pattern or gold rim off of the cups. Thanks in advance. Lois
Dear Lois,For really tough stains on china cups use one
of the following cleaning techniques: Place a denture tablet inside the cup and fill with hot water. Leave overnight; the stain should dis-solve. Or, wipe stains with whitening toothpaste. Or, make a paste of baking soda (or washing soda) and water and scrub cups and saucers. Or fill cup with one-teaspoon citric acid and one-tea-spoon lemon juice and fill the remainder of the cup with hot water. Leave overnight. Note: Wear gloves when work-ing with washing soda.
Dear Reena,Now, here’s a situation
you might not have heard of before. I wear rubber gloves for doing dishes. Over the years I have accumulated doz-ens of gloves for the right hand and thrown away dozens of gloves for the left hand. I’m left-hand-ed and find it’s that hand that gets the pokes and holes from knives and other sharp items during dishwashing. I’ve tried to think of how I can repair the small hole in the rubber glove, to no avail. Can’t bring myself to discard the right hand gloves! What ideas do you have to remedy this situation? Joy
Dear Joy,Although there is no effective way to fix torn
rubber gloves, if you always wear out one rubber glove, start saving all the good gloves and by turning half of them inside out you will gain a few extra pairs. Or cut good fingertips off of one pair of torn rubber gloves and put them into torn glove fingertips to reinforce them. Also, consid-er alternative uses for rubber gloves: Cut them into circles, they make great non-slip grips for everything such as a stuck jar lid. Or cut the fingers off of torn rubber gloves and slip them over mop and broom handles; that way when you lean them against the wall they don’t slide or create marks on the wall. Cover chair feet with the finger of rubber gloves to protect floors. Or cut strips on the round, both the hand part and fingers and use as rubber bands. Cut off the index finger piece from the torn rubber glove to create an ideal sheath for your finger the next time you have to sort through a stack of papers.
Love the question! Dear Reena,I washed and hung a white sweater on a paint-
ed hanger to dry. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice that the hanger’s paint was chipped in places. So now my white sweater has rust stains on the shoulders! Any suggestions for removing these stains? Thanks for your help. I find your column so interesting. Marilyn
Dear Marilyn,One solution that I find very effective on fab-
ric rust stains is pouring hydrogen peroxide (or lemon juice) onto the stain and sprinkling it with cream of tartar. Leave the item in the bright sun for a day and wash, works very well. Or chop a few stalks of rhubarb with water and cook. Hold the stain in the boiling rhubarb water for a few seconds. Great results and your pot will sparkle as well. Taken from Household Solutions 1 with Substitutions.
Dear Reena,I have drugstore beetles in my kitchen cup-
boards where the cereal, pasta and rice are housed. These items are all stored in 500 ml. freezable food containers. I throw out contami-nated food and wash the containers and shelves but the beetles are back in no time. Any sugges-tions? Shirley
Dear Shirley,The simplest way to get rid of drugstore bee-
tles is to locate the source of the infestation and quickly get rid of it. Use a flashlight or other light to examine all food storage areas and food products. Get rid of heavily infested foods by collecting them in heavy plastic bags or in sealed
containers for garbage disposal.
When you purchase foods, check packag-ing dates to establish freshness. Stay away from broken and dam-aged items. Purchase rarely-used foods in small quantities to prevent storage peri-ods of one month or more (especially
during warm months). Store foods in insect-proof containers; glass, heavy plastic, or metal with screw-type lids, or store in a refrigerator or freezer. Properly ventilate the storage area to discourage these moisture-loving pests.
Foods with questionable infestations can be heated in a shallow pan in the oven at 120 degrees F (48.9 C) for 1 hour or place in a deep freeze at 0 degrees F (-17.8 C) for 4 hours; or heat in a microwave oven for a few minutes. After removing all food, food packages and dishes from the cupboard, shelves, or storage area, use a strong suction vacuum cleaner with proper attachments to clean all spilled foods from crevices behind and under appliances and furniture. Pull out heavy appliances from the wall and scrub with soap and hot water. After shelves are dry, cover with clean, fresh paper or foil. It is not recommended to use insecticides around food but if the infestation persists; Clear out kitchen and put all food that may be affected into the freezer. Spray Raid or call a professional pest control service to tackle the problem. If using a strong chemical be sure to wash all shelves and walls before returning the food to the shelves.
I enjoy your questions and tips, keep them coming. Missed a column? Can’t remember a solution? Need a speaker for an upcoming event? Check out my website Reena.ca.

In February, Marlene Martens of Salmon Arm went to Manta, Ecuador, to visit her granddaughter Naya Martens.
Marlene was there during their celebration of “Carnival;” a special spring festival in which people arrive from all around the area to spend time along the beach and attend outdoor music activities throughout the evening and into the early morning hours. She enjoyed
seeing the sand sculptures created by some of the artistic folk there, and she especially enjoyed spend-ing a month with her son, daughter-in-law & granddaughter who live there.
Marlene receives $10 for having her picture printed, and is entered into the Lakeshore News Travels To contest for 2015.

Audrey BerniceCurrie 1927 – 2015
Audrey Bernice Currie was born on April 10, 1927 and passed peacefully with her daughter Shawnene at her side in her home in Calgary on March 19, 2015. Audrey is predeceased by her husband of 57 years, Lloyd Currie and her eldest son Lanny Currie. She leaves behind two daughters: Wyona and Carl Hansen of Salmon Arm and Shawnene Currie and Larry Flamond of Calgary as well as two sons, Kim and Jacquie Currie of Salmon Arm/Calgary and Shan Currie and Souad Arbouche of Calgary. She also leaves behind 10 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren.
Audrey was born in Saskatchewan and moved to British Columbia when she was five years old where she believed she was going to be able to climb a strawberry tree. In her teen years she worked at the apple packing plant. Audrey later met Lloyd and they married August 4, 1948. She and Lloyd raised their five children at the same homestead as she was raised on. Audrey was an employee of Sears Canada, where she made life long friends. Audrey was a fabulous cake decorator and enjoyed doing birthday cakes for family and friends; her passion though was creating masterpiece wedding cakes. Audrey loved travelling the world and enjoyed meeting people. She also loved when her children came home for visits and especially when there were get togethers with family and friends. Tuesdays and Fridays found her faithfully enjoying coffee or lunches with her girlfriends until her move to Calgary.
Audrey was a strong woman always ready for an adventure and so we will rejoice her life for it was a good life, at an Open House on Sunday, April 26, 2015 from 11:00am to 2:00pm at Fischer’s Funeral Services, 4060 1st Ave. SW, Salmon Arm.
Our family thanks the team at Piccadilly Terrace for the support they gave her while she lived there, and the team of Health Care Aides, RN’s and day support she had while living in Calgary.
*** Together at Last, Pain free and at Peace ***

Jessie NunnJessie Lilian Nunn (nee Pooley), born in London, England on December 16, 1924, passed away peacefully in her sleep at Hillside Village, Salmon Arm, BC on Tuesday, April 7, 2015 at the age of 90 years.
Jessie was predeceased by her husband, Don Sr., in 1985 and her oldest son, Don Jr., from Smithers, BC, in 2014. She is survived by her children Lana Kirkby, Janet (Ken) Siemens, Jacquie Smolne, Steven Nunn, Mike (Lenora) Nunn, Rennie Nunn, Clint Nunn, and extended family, Rainer Smolne and Tammy Brookes. Also, 15 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren, who all fondly remember her as “Nannie”.
Jessie was very proud and spoke often of her service in the English military during WW2. Soon after the war she married and started raising her 4 oldest children before immigrating to Canada in 1956. In 1958, Jessie and Don finally settled in Sardis where they added another 4 boys to the family before moving to Salmon Arm in 1979.
A couple of accomplishments in Jessie’s life, besides raising 8 children included opening a teen dance club in the early 60’s at Vedder Crossing in Sardis, and volunteering with the Canadian Cancer Society for 17 years as the financial aid representative in the Salmon Arm area.
The family would like to give a special thank you to Dr. Aitchison for her extra special care, and also to the ‘too numerous to count’ staff at Hillside Village, for their kindness and for treating our mom like family.
Interment will be held Saturday, May 30 at 1:00 pm at Mt. Ida Cemetery, Salmon Arm, BC
Online condolences can be sent through Jessie’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com
Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.
