Electoral Area “G” Director Angelique Wood listens as Regional District Okanagan Similkameen FInance Manager Sandy Croteau explains an upcoming increase in water rates to Olalla water users. The regional district held an open air meeting in the Similkameen community last week.

Regional district staff and politi-cal representatives took advantage of the hot weather last week, conducting the second open air meeting in Olalla in the past year.

The concept is unique to Olalla, which has no pub-lic building large enough in which to hold a community meeting.

Fortunately for the Regional District Okanagan Similkameen, both tent meetings took place under sunny,

warm conditions.The meeting was

chaired by Electoral Area “G” Director Angelique Wood, who told between 25 - 30 residents assembled that the meeting would focus on “Fortis, � nancing, funding and forestry.”

The Fortis con-servation rate con-tinues to cause con-sternation amongst B.C. residents. Wood reported that numerous letters had been sent to the British Columbia Utilities Commis-sion, from herself, Keremeos Village Council, and the Southern Interior

Local Government Association.

“It was a hot topic at SILGA (convention) ,” she said, “people are mad, consider themselves over-charged, and are having a hard time paying bills.” She encouraged those present to make their feelings known to the BCUC.

RDOS Financial Manager Sandy Croteau gave Olalla residents advance warning of an impending water tax increase. Olalla residents can expect to pay an average of $52 more this year for their water

bill. Croteau cited increasing operat-ing costs for the increase.

“User fees have remained unchanged since 2006,” she told the assembly, adding that prior year’s sav-ings had been used to offset increases in the past few years, but that money was now used up.

RDOS Public Works Manager Doug French said that grant fund-ing was available to Olalla for � ood mitigation, but one third of any project would have to be funded by the com-munity. French said

that two applica-tions had been sent in prior to a May 22 deadline.

“The provincial study we had done two years ago had no ready solutions,” French said. “It will be up to you if you want to come up with the one third funding (to take advantage of the application).”

Emergency Services Supervisor Dale Kronebusch addressed potential imminent � ooding issues in the com-munity. Noting that mosquito spraying would be taking place on May 10 on

The Review, Thursday, May 16, 2013 —

news

on the surface of the perennially - forming “Lake Olalla” (a � oodplain that annually covers several hectares to the northeast of the community) Kronebusch said that sandbags and sand could be made available at no charge to residents, but labour would have to be supplied and paid for at the local level.

“We’re at a 20 year high for the wa-ter table in the region,” Kronebusch explained.

Kaleden - Okanagan Falls Director for Area “D” Tom Siddon appeared at the meeting at Wood’s behest. He spoke about current logging concerns in the Keremeos Creek watershed in the Apex Mountain area.

Siddon said that logging plans in the area � rst came to light about two

months ago, after the province allo-cated 68,000 cubic metres of timber to the Penticton Indian Band. They will be working with professional foresters and Gorman Brothers mill to harvest the timber.

Siddon noted that Olalla residents were stakeholders in the plan, as wa-ter quality, and � ow were affected by clear cut logging. Siddon and Wood both met with PIB Chief Jonathan Kruger and the Vice President of Gorman Brothers in an effort to en-sure that those affected by the logging operations would be consulted.

Siddon said that the logging op-erations were being done to harvest timber subject to pine beetle infesta-tion, noting that selective logging operations would be less harmful

than the proposed clear cut opera-tions. He urged the residents to put foward a united approach in an effort to modify the logging plans, or pos-sibly redirect them to another area altogether. The logging operations in additional cut blocks are not expected to begin until next year.

Two petitions directed towards the Fortis conservation rate issue were available for signatures after the meet-ing.

Questions from those present included hypothetical issues stemming from � ood concerns, and the poten-tial for unstable ground and slides to occur following logging operations at Apex.

Keremeos Village Council heard an opinion from White Kennedy Chartered Accountants on the village’s � nancial statements at the May 6 regular meeting of council.

The scrutiny of the village’s books by an independent auditor is an annual occurance, and as has been the case in past years, the village’s � nancial statements for 2013 were found to be a fair representation of the village’s � nancial situation.

The upcoming Keremeos Elks rodeo necessitated several requests to council at the May 6 meeting.

A request by the Elks for an $800 grant for Ladies Barrel Racing prize money was made. Council agreed, taking the money from the council contingency fund. The amount is similar to that requested and granted last year.

Keremeos Elks also requested use of village barricades and cones to allow for a traf� c detour during the Elks Rodeo Parade on Mon-day, May 20. Council agreed to the request, also asking the rodeo com-mittee to contact the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure for road closure approval, with an addititonal request to contact local emergency organizations to inform them of the road closure.

Council also authorized Kere-meos Community Church to erect a tent in Memorial Park for a Sunday “Cowboy Church” service on May 19.

Council authorized the following proclamations at the May 6 meeting:

- May is Missing Children’s Month, May 25 is Missing Chil-dren’s Day in Keremeos.

- May 8 was proclaimed as Red Cross Day in Keremeos

Council received a form-like letter from the British Columbia Utilities Commission in response to a request for changes in Fortis’ two tiered bill-ing rate.

Staff Reports Costs of the failed reservoir ref-

erendum were presented to council in a summary report regarding the vote.

Voter turnout was low (27.81 per cent), lower than similar ref-erendums held in Summerland, Peachland and Oliver in past years. All three of those referendums had turnouts in excess of 40 per cent.

The Village of Keremeos has been working with the Union of BC Municipalities to relinquish the $300,000 funding grant offfered by the regional district for the project.

The cost of the referendum was broken down as follows: Staf� ng $3,390

Advertising $600Ballots $273.77Supplies $374.32Staff Meals $159.62Total cost of the referendum was

billed at $4,797.91.Total number of ballots cast was

650, of which 156 were in favour and 174 against. Three ballots were rejected, one was spoiled and 316 unused ballots were left over.

Public Works

Public Works staff are upgrading their wastewater certi� cation. Unplanned projects coming to coun-cil’s attention include:

- a request to have water service to Crows Nest Bakery upgraded from a 3/4 inch service at an esti-mated cost of $5,000.

- Water service lines for domestic and business consumption is sus-pected to be deteriorating to a point where there is a risk of a washout. Since the village is no longer ca-pable of supplying today’s required water volume to business proper-ties, engineers have been engaged to prepare cost estimates for design and replacement of the water mains.

- Two requests have been received to extend cement barricades east of existing barricades along Second Avenue from Bypass Road, at a cost of $3,500 installed.

- It is recommended that an old well in the downtown core be de-commissioned and sealed off to pre-vent contamination of the aquifer.

Capital Project Updates- Construction drawings awaited

from engineers for Memorial Park washroom upgrades.

- Victory Hall washroom design completed, awaiting grant approval.

- Village of� ce upgrades to date include new of� ces for CAO and CFO as well as access controls and alarm upgrades.

- No major work planned for roads within village limits this year.

- Upper bench sewer extension awaiting � nal design from engineers.

On Victoria Day afternoon, May 20 The Grist Mill Heritage Club will host an open mike musical event in the gardens of the Grist Mill.

Admission to the grounds will be free on Victo-ria Day which is also the opening day for the 2013 season.

Historic site hours are 9 to 5, 7 days a week. Regular admission is $7 and $5 for students and seniors.

The Heritage Club invites region-al and local musicians to the porch of the tea room or to the outdoor kitchen stage.

Wrongful dismissal case delayed again

Former Keremeos firefighter Doug MacLeod is finding that the wheels of justice are not only slow, but perhaps not complete-ly round either.

His day in court was deferred once again on May 9 when proceedings were put off due to a scheduling conflict in a Pent-icton courtroom. Presiding Judge Meg Shaw told the court that a criminal case would take pre-cedence over MacLeod’s small claims dispute.

“I’m going to do something unusual,” Judge Shaw told the court, asking both MacLeod and Regional District Okanagan Similkameen counsellor Melanie Cannon if they wished to try and start their case later in the day, if it appeared that the criminal case could be resolved early enough.

Cannon informed the judge that she would no longer be counsel for the RDOS after June. She further informed the court that she wished to present an application to have the case dismissed over a statute of limitations rule.

The regional district wished to present the argument that Ma-cLeod was a month late in filing his claim, at seven months.

The two parties met with Judge Shaw again on Thursday after-noon. Shaw reserved judgement until next week on the dismissal application. Should she deny it, a date will be set for continuation of the case.

Both parties expressed frustration with the number of delays encountered in bringing the matter to a decision.

MacLeod has been seeking a court decision for more than a year. He was terminated by the Keremeos Volunteer Fire Depart-ment in March of 2011, but the firing was later deemed illegal. His case came before the regional district board in August of 2011 where a decision was legally made to fire him without cause. The long, drawn out proceedings have proven time consuming and costly, MacLeod admitted.

Having life insurance coverage is a very impor-tant decision for you and your beneficiaries. But there are many life insurance products to choose from. Which is right for you? Which is the best fit for your personal situation, budget and longer-term financial, retirement and estate goals? It could be Participating Whole Life insurance (also known as Par Whole Life) if this profile looks like you:

◘My tolerance for investment risk is low ◘I want protection for my lifetime with guar-

anteed premiums, guaranteed cash values and a guaranteed basic death benefit that will be tax-free to my beneficiaries.

◘I want an investment component included with my insurance coverage that provides the po-tential for tax-deferred growth, a level premium and for the policy to become paid up over a number of years.

◘I don’t want the burden of the day-to-day management of the investment component of my life insurance policy.

◘I want built-in tax-advantaged savings I can easily and quickly draw on if I need the funds for per-sonal or business reasons (although I do recognize that any cash values I withdraw from the policy may be subject to tax).

Participating life insurance combines life insur-ance with an investment component that also pays dividends. Here’s how participating whole life (Par) works:

◘Your premiums go into an account, called the PAR account, along with the premiums paid by everyone else holding a participating policy with the life insurance company you choose.

◘The premiums you pay and the policy cov-erages are calculated based on long-term assump-tions for death claims, investment returns and other factors. Your premiums, the guaranteed cash sur-render value schedule and the basic death benefit are based on these factors and are guaranteed for the life of your policy. Paid up additions, determined by the dividends you have paid, are eligible to earn future dividends – that’s what provides for the com-pounding of a Whole Life policy – a great feature, and it’s tax sheltered.

◘The pooled premiums within the PAR ac-count of all policyholders who own PAR policies are

Participating in your insurance can pay

invested in a balanced portfolio managed by investment professionals.

◘When a profit is earned on a participating policy, a significant portion is distributed to the policyholders in the form of a dividend that is credited to your policy and owned by you. Although dividends are not guaranteed, participating policies have historically earned profits and returned dividends. You can use the dividends to increase the policy’s cash value on a tax-advantaged basis, withdraw the cash from your policy or borrow against it, buy additional insurance without the need to prove your insurability, or to lower your out-of-pocket premiums.

Participating insurance products offer choice and flexibility. Talk to your professional advisor to find out if your personal and financial profile is up to PAR.

news

April began with a hot spell, resulting in some melt of the Similkameen snowpack before the weather transitioned into a cool, unsettled pattern for the remainder of the month.

The Similkameen snowpack actually increased through April. Typically snow packs transition from accumulating snow to melting snow around the middle of April, however this transition was delayed this season by one to two weeks.

The Similkameen snow pack is currently at 100 per cent of normal, compared to 79 per cent at last month’s snow pack mea-surement.

With a slight delay in the onset of the snow melt season, and small increases in the size of the snow pack in some regions, there have been small increases in the seasonal flood risk across the province. Seasonal flood risk is moderately elevated in the North Thompson, South Thompson, Okanagan-Kettle and Liard Rivers. Sea-sonal flood risk is high in the Upper Fraser basin. Elsewhere in the province, seasonal flood risk is considered to be normal

It is important to note that snow pack is only one element that influences whether flooding occurs during the spring freshet. Of critical importance are how the snow melts and how much, and when, precipita-tion is received during the snow melt pe-riod. While there an increased likelihood of flooding in areas with higher than normal snow packs, flooding is possible in any re-gion given adverse weather conditions (pro-longed heat and/or heavy precipitation).

Seasonal flows are expected to be near normal throughout most of the province.

The start of May brought with it a num-ber of persistent high pressure systems with temperatures that have been well above nor-mal, and in some cases reaching new record levels. This greatly increased the snowmelt in the Similkameen watershed, especially last week.

The current weather forecasts from Environment Canada are indicating sea-sonal temperatures through this week for the region, with a slight cooling and chance of wet weather towards the end of the weekend and into early next week.

The current 30-day temperature anomaly outlook (issued April 30 for the month of May) from Environment Canada indicates an increased likelihood for above normal temperature for southern British Colum-bia. Longer-range (three-month) seasonal forecasts from Environment Canada are also suggesting a higher likelihood of above normal temperature and below normal pre-cipitation over the May-July period, specifi-cally in the southern half of the province.

The Similkameen River was discharging at the rate of 416 cubic metres per second as of early Thursday, May 9, up from 177 cms measured on Sunday, May 5.

Thursday’s flow rate (416 cms) is 10 cms short of the two year average return, that is, a flow rate expected on average one year in every two.

Earlier this week, at least two itinerant campsites were located extremely close to the fast flowing Similkameen River on the site of the former Farmworkers Camp-ground near the cement plant in Keremeos.

A high streamflow advisory was issued for the Similkameen and its major tributar-ies (Tulameen, Ashnola) on May 8.

River levels began to stabilize after Mon-day, May 13 (when the peak flow so far this year of 461 cfs was recorded), and with cooler temperatures this week, it appears that the Similkameen has peaked.

With temperatures forecasted to remain at normal levels for the week, river levels may continue to ease.

Campers are setting up their sites beside the swollen Similkameen River, in spite of the obvious dangers of rising waters. Flow rates appear to be easing this week with cooler temperatures.

EditorialNothing fair about

slow judicial processWhat is a fair price to pay for justice in B.C.

today? It’s a question that former Keremeos firefight-

er Doug MacLeod must be asking after having his court date rescheduled yet again last Thursday at the inactive Penticton Law Courts.

The frustration was evident in all the parties involved in MacLeod’s wrongful dismissal claim against the Regional District Okanagan Similka-meen. He has already been to court four times, and, truthfully, is no closer to a verdict than he was before these proceedings started.

In the meantime, in addition to legal costs, his expenses are climbing through the roof.

As an example, last Thursday was supposed to be his trial date. He showed up in Penticton with a number of witnesses from Keremeos, all of whom left their jobs, only to find that they had wasted their time, energy and resources.

On the other side of the courtroom, the RDOS continues to ramp up costs for their de-fense, with a lawyer hired out of Vancouver also being paid by taxpayers’ dollars for each court appearance.

“It’s the way the system works,” MacLeod wrote in an email explaining the present status of the case, but we disagree. It’s the way the system doesn’t work, is a more truthful explanation of the process.

With all the wisdom and intellect that should be available to provide sober insight and solu-tions to problems in the judicial system in B.C., it seems to us that it should be a reasonable expecta-tion to get a ruling in a basic legal action such as this. It’s a small claims issue, no less - and should be dealt with through a minimum of delay and expense.

The fact that this isn’t happening indicates to us that nowhere near enough is being done to en-sure fair and speedy justice to the citizens of B.C.

Another election cam-paign has come and gone, with the ritual posturing of political parties and most news media searching for anything they can portray as a conflict.

Now comes the time to wonder why not enough people cared, or informed themselves about the real problems of running this $40 billion corporation called the B.C. govern-ment.

Why would they, when the whole thing is pre-sented as a combination of beauty contest and sports event, with endless discus-sion of polls and “attack ads” and who’s ahead and what’s the score?

Again we have seen the truth of former prime minister Kim Campbell’s observation that elections are no time to talk about serious issues. Indeed, there are some things you can’t speak of at all.

Peace River North MLA Pat Pimm caused a stir at a candidates’

debate when he referred to constituents’ concerns that disabled children can cause difficulties in classrooms.

He didn’t say class-rooms should be segre-gated, although that’s a discussion worth having. He didn’t deny the need for more support for special needs kids. But his opponents immedi-ately portrayed it that way, and media seized on the conflict despite the factual inaccuracy.

West Vancouver-Cap-ilano MLA Ralph Sultan had a similar experience when he referred to his study of poverty in that affluent area. He noted that there was a high cor-relation between single parenthood and kids in poverty. Picking on single mums, his detractors ex-claimed, and that’s what got reported.

The B.C. Conservatives kicked their Boundary-Similkameen candidate out of the party because he wrote an article saying women shouldn’t choose to be single mothers.

You can talk about child poverty, as long as

you only discuss it based on federal statistics that do not measure poverty. Christy Clark started do-ing this as soon as she became B.C. Liberal leader, one of several issues where she dispensed with the facts and tried to copy a popular NDP stance instead.

She was all about fami-lies, which can of course be single people, single parents or pretty well any-thing you want them to be.

In fact the decline of the traditional family and the abdication of respon-sibility by many parents, fathers in particular, are central factors in the prob-lem of poor and neglected children. But you can’t talk about that, at least not during elections.

Whole areas of political discussion have devolved into euphemisms that are chosen because they can’t be defined. Everybody’s in favour of “affordable housing,” for instance. What they won’t admit is that this is code for sub-sidized housing, because then they would have to talk about how much the

subsidy is, and who has to pay for it.

Good grief, that might raise the question of whether the state should be taking money away from some people and giv-ing it to others so they can live where they otherwise couldn’t afford to live.

We even have rules preventing the media from reporting polls on elec-tion day. People might be influenced by this, you see. If you tell them Party X is far ahead, they might stay home and mow the lawn instead. If you tell them someone is making a comeback, they might change their vote because they want to be on the winning side, or the one that has “momentum.” Just like any other sport.

The news media are steadily losing influence with the public. There are many factors involved, including the vast array of information sources that are available at most people’s fingertips.

Another factor is treat-ing the public like they’re idiots.

Things you can’t say in electionsBy Tom Fletcher Black Press

To the Editor:95 Years Young in Olalla!An amazing lady, “Auntie Doll”, has

lived in the beautiful and ever changing community of Olalla for 95 years! We wish

to honor this lovely woman by wishing her a very happy birthday from the Olalla com-munity.

Many happy returns to you Auntie Doll!Sincerely, The Friends of Olalla

To the Editor: I was born in 1921. At that time we owned a 1921 Buick McLaughlin. In the early ‘20s we could no longer afford to pay 33 cents per gallon for gasoline, so we made a horse drawn vehicle out of the Buick. We blamed the hard times on the Prime Minister, R.B. Bennett, so our horse drawn car was called a Bennett Wagon. We could not afford leather for the lines, so we made rope out of binder twine and these were Bennett lines. Everything we could not afford was home made and called “Bennett this” and “Bennett that”. We used to sell our cream - thick cream for $3 for a � ve gallon can. We sold eggs for $3 for a 30 dozen crate of eggs. We went to school in overalls that only had the knees out and were patched. The ones we wore around home were embar-rassing because they didn’t cover all our parts. We were lucky. We ate the food we grew. The town kids were in relief or they would not

have eaten.I was just a teenager then and I used a six

volt generator and made a propeller out of a two by six - six feet long and wired our house with second hand wire and put electricity (six volt) in our house.

Well, in 1939 - 40 I got tired of that and moved to B.C., after meeting my cousin here. We were in love - madly - but in those days they would not allow marriage, so I married her close friend. After many years I lost my dear wife, so three or four years ago my cousin lost her husband and so now we are married and can spend the last few years we have left together. I became a � rst class mechanic, car-penter, electrician, musician and businessman, I ran locomotives, you name it. I’ve had a very interesting life and at 92 years, a writer.

As ever, Wilf Miller, Keremeos

FIRST NATIONS – Part IWe have seen a fair amount of coverage in the

news lately on First Nations’ issues. In this � rst installment on the First Nations, I think it might be helpful to put this into an historical context.

The situation of Métis, Inuit, and First Na-tions peoples is one of the most complex and persistent challenges for the federal government.

Successive Liberal and Conservative govern-ments have failed to establish an agreement on the place of indigenous peoples in the Canadian federation, and their average living conditions remain far below other Canadians.

Aboriginal issues capture mainstream public interest in a cyclical way, when a crisis emerges. The IdleNoMore movement (INM) arose as a protest against changes to the Navigable Waters Protection Act, which were part of the Conser-vative’s 2012 budget implementation bill, but quickly became a nation-wide peaceful protest movement that has galvanized aboriginal and non-aboriginal Canadians to demand change.

Popular pressure and a hunger strike prompted a high-level meeting with the Prime Minister and the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) in January, after which the Prime Minis-ter agreed to provide oversight of the � le. AFN National Chief Shawn Atleo’s decision to attend the meeting on the Prime Minister’s terms was controversial among First Nations, and revealed a divide between First Nations leadership and a grassroots movement increasingly frustrated with the status quo.

The aboriginal population represents ap-proximately four per cent of Canada’s overall population. According to Statistics Canada’s 2006 Census, there are approximately 1.7 million people who identify as having some First Na-tions, Inuit or Métis heritage in Canada, among whom almost 1.2 million report an “aboriginal identity”, marking a stronger attachment to that heritage. Of this number, almost 400,000 are Métis, 50,000 are Inuit and the others (700,000) have “North American Indian” background.

Half of aboriginal peoples in Canada are under the age of 25, and the population is grow-ing at 2.5 times the rate of the rest of the country. This makes Aboriginal peoples the youngest

and fastest growing population segment in the country, which will increase the signi� cance of this demographic over time.

In 1969, the Trudeau Government published a white paper on “Indian policy” that recom-mended scrapping the Indian Act, abolishing the Indian Affairs Department’s special programs, and transferring Indian lands to Indian people and away from ownership by reserves.

Aboriginal leaders denounced the white paper as a recipe for assimilation. They said it rejected their special standing in Canada as the original occupiers of the land. The federal NDP joined them in this position.

Trudeau relented and in 1982, existing aborigi-nal and treaty rights were recognized and af-� rmed in Section 35 of the Constitution. Despite several government policy moves towards recog-nizing self-government, successive Liberal and Conservative governments have failed to make progress on establishing a true “nation-to-nation” relationship.

Following the 1990 Oka Crisis, the Federal government created a Royal Commission on ab-original Peoples (RCAP). In 1996, RCAP made over 400 recommendations including that the Indian Act be replaced by a third order of gov-ernment for indigenous peoples within Canada. This was welcomed by a majority of indigenous peoples as well as the federal NDP. Progress on implementing the recommendations has been very slow, and most is left undone.

In 2005, just as they were heading to cer-tain defeat after a decade in power, the Martin government put forward the Kelowna Accord. In the accord they pledged a $5.1-billion budget plan to address the low standard of living of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples in Canada so that it would be equal to that of all other Canadians.

When the Harper government came to power, it promised to meet the targets of the accord, but has failed to do so.

In 2008, the federal government issued an of� cial apology to the survivors of residential schools. In his speech, Prime Minister Stephen Harper acknowledged the important role NDP Leader Jack Layton had played in pushing for the apology to take place.

Above:The Similkameen Gar-den Club had its annual plant sale May 4. This an-nual event takes place in front of the Credit Union on the � rst Saturday of May. The area was a hub of activity as this great stretch of warm weather is giving a boost of en-ergy to get into the spirit of gardening. Members have been in the mood for gardening since Earth Day when they cleaned out the downtown � ower plant-ers and prepared the big flower bed at the Info Center. They’ll be planting flowers soon after the Long Weekend. Spring has arrived in Keremeos!

On Thursday, April 11 both members and guests of the newly formed South Similkameen Art Society (SSAS) held their � rst meet and greet. Parking was at bit of a premium at Gibson House but the air was � lled with happy greetings and laughter as local artists from Cawston, Keremeos, and Olalla, differing in age and experience but solidly connected through their mutual love of the arts, gathered for the � rst event of the newly formed art society.

On hand to greet the artists and � eld questions about this � edgling non-pro� t society were executive members Amber Her-bison, President; Lisa Zbinden, Vice-Presi-dent; and Julie Hinton, Secretary/Treasurer. Artists introduced themselves and presented examples of their art work or opened their portfolios for viewing by all. Art pieces ranging from wood carvings to fabric arts to graf� ti arts to acrylic and oil paintings were presented and admired. Also attending were actors, photographers, and even an award winning author and the society is calling out to musicians, dancers and potters to also come join in the fun.

Annual membership dues for SSAS have been kept at a modest $20 per annum with even further reduced rates for teens. Info online at http://ssartssociety.blogspot.ca/

Next SSAS event upcoming on May 25.

SSAS presents Art In The Valley Faire on May 25 in the Keremeos Legion Hall. Tables are free to members, so become a member today and book your space to show/sell your artwork or present your mu-sic or acting talent. There will be paintings, drawings, carvings, stickers, jewelry, fabric art quilts, and a clown for the kids in their play area. Also planned are short skits/plays and acoustic music – calling all musicians and actors.

St. Barbara’s Anglican Church in Okana-gan Falls is celebrating its 50th anniversary on Sunday, May 26 exactly a half century to the day after its of� cial opening in 1963.

After years of meeting in the dining room of the old Alexandra Hotel and in the Okanagan Falls United Church which was moved from the Fairview townsite in 1929, the Anglican community decided to build a church of its own on two lots donated by Major Hugh Fra-ser of Okanagan Falls.

Hugh Leir donated the building materials and Deputy Warden Tom Worth designed the original church and was a leading � gure in its construction. The Right Reverend Bishop William Coleman of the Diocese of Kootenay of� cially opened the new church on May 26, 1963.

The � rst priest was Reverend John Stainer followed by the Rev. Des Holt, Canon Alan Jackson, Rev. Brock Lupton, Rev. Randy Wood, Rev. Hugo Jackson, Rev. Virginia Briant, Rev. Doug Stanley, Rev. Nico Montal-betti and current incumbent Rev. Rick Paulin. Several other priests served St. Barbara’s in a temporary capacity over the years, most nota-bly Rev. Derek Salter.

St. Barbara’s received its name and some of its furnishings from St. Barbara’s Church at the Copper Mountain townsite near Princeton. Initially, there was discussion about moving the entire church from Copper Mountain to Okanagan Falls but it proved to be impractical so only the pews and the original chalice were relocated.

In 1970, the building loan was paid off and the church mortgage was burned at a St. Pat-rick’s Day supper held in the Legion hall.

In 1968 Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church began holding services at St. Barbara’s, and for the past several years an annual com-bined community service of lessons and carols has been hosted in December by the United Church, Our Lady of Lourdes, the Commu-nity Church and St. Barbara’s.

To meet the needs of the thriving Anglican parish and congregation, Canon Alan Jackson arranged the purchase of a portable classroom from the OK Falls elementary school to serve as a church hall in 1982. Over the past 10 years a number of building projects have been un-dertaken including a new church foyer, of� ce, washrooms and roof and kitchen upgrading.

To celebrate its 50 years in the community, the public is invited to attend a special service followed by a wine and cheese reception and cake cutting ceremony commencing at 1 p.m. on Sunday, May 26 at St. Barbara’s Anglican Church at 1039 Willow Street in Okanagan Falls.

The service will be conducted by the Right Reverent John Privett, Bishop of Kootenay as-sisted by Rev. Rick Paulin. Guests will include former priests, representatives from other churches in the South Okanagan and original members of the parish.

NASA recently re-leased a most amaz-ing image. It had been sent back by the Cassini spacecraft, which is currently exploring the planet Saturn and its many moons. The image shows a huge storm, like a hurricane here on Earth but much bigger, about 20 times larger than the ones we get. Unlike ours, this storm is sitting right over one of Sat-urn’s poles and seems to have been there for years.

Big, long-lived storms are business

as usual for Jupi-ter and Saturn, the largest planets in our Solar System. The best-known and biggest storm is on Jupiter, the � fth planet out from the Sun. We live on the third. This storm is known as the Great Red Spot. It is a storm vortex large enough to

drop the Earth into. It is also very long-lived compared with the storms we have. It was there when we � rst pointed tele-scopes at the planet. With a small tele-scope you can see it for yourself.

Jupiter is getting low in the west in the evenings but is easy to � nd. Your telescope will show you a tan disc crossed by belts of darker cloud, and the Great Red Spot as a large blob. If conditions are good enough you will see other storms

too, as lighter or darker spots. Saturn, the sixth planet from the Sun, is high in the eastern sky these evenings and is easy to observe. If you can draw your eyes away from the spectacular system of rings sur-rounding the planet, you’ll see a somewhat fainter version of Jupiter, a tan disc crossed by cloud belts.

Since weather, including storms are all driven by solar en-ergy, we would expect them to be smaller and weaker on plan-ets further from the Sun. Certainly this is the case for the next two planets further out from the Sun: Uranus and Nep-tune, respectively the seventh and eighth planets. In this case, why do Jupiter and Saturn have such dra-matic weather com-pared with ours, on the third planet from the Sun? The reason

is that in addition to the energy input from the Sun, weather pat-terns and storms are moulded by a planet’s rotation.

It’s easy to visual-ize how here on Earth the heat of the tropics leads to warming of the air, making it rise. Cooler air � ows in from the north and south to replace it. High above the ground, the warm air � ows northward and southward, where it cools and sinks, and then � ows along the ground back towards the tropics to repeat the cycle. This simple idea is upset by our planet’s rotation. At the equator the rotation of the Earth leads to the land and atmosphere moving eastward at about 1,670 km/hr. At the poles that velocity is zero. This changes the movement of the at-mosphere completely, generating spiralling weather systems and storms.

Jupiter and Saturn are larger than the Earth, and they rotate

faster; their days are only about ten hours long. A point on Jupiter’s equator is moving at 46,000 km/hr and on Saturn, 36,000 km/hr. This rapid rotation stretch-es the cloud into belts and spawns enor-mous storms. More-over, with no land masses to disrupt the air � ows, these storms can persist for a long time. If our world had the sort of weather we see on Jupiter and Saturn, we would probably not be here to com-ment on it.

Jupiter is still unmissable, but is getting low in the western sky in the evening. Saturn rises before sunset and is well up in the east by dark. The Moon will reach � rst quarter on the 18th.

Ken Tapping is an astronomer with the National Research Council’s Dominion Radio Astro-physical Observatory, Pentic-ton.

health

As the title of this article implies, what you consume immediately following your workout is almost as impor-tant as the workout itself. Every time you exercise, you deplete a significant amount of your stored muscle glycogen (carbohydrates) as well as your amino acid pool, and the stress of that exercise breaks down and damages your muscle cells. The good news is that those muscle cells grow bigger and stronger (provided they are properly nourished) so they can better handle that stress in the future. However, the effects of exercise are quite catabolic. You drain your fuel supplies, you eat up the circulating protein in your system, you distress your muscle cells and depending on the intensity of the activity, you may burn some muscle tissue for energy along the way. Additionally, the adrenal hormone cortisol is released. Although an important hormone, it is the bad guy in athletics because it assists in the conversion of existing muscle tissue into fuel. All this adds up to a highly catabolic environment that breaks down, burns up and empties your reserves. Making the transition from that exercise induced depleted state to one of recovery, repair and growth is the tricky part. Fortunately, a wonderful window of opportunity presents itself right at the time we need refuelling the most. For an hour or so after a workout your body’s ability to absorb and utilize nutrients is exceptionally high. With a well-timed protein shake following a workout, you not only replenish and refuel yourself, you also shift gears from the catabolic environment an anabolic one that begins the growth, recovery and repair process. This high absorption window of opportunity is short lived. If you do not reload during that first critical hour, chances are you will linger in a catabolic state for hours. A protein shake, ideally consumed within 30 minutes after exercise containing both good quality carbohy-drates and a high biological value protein source is the simple solution. The obvious combination is a fruit juice based shake or smoothie that includes whey protein. This type of shake is quickly and easily digested (much quicker than solid food) and almost immediately initiates the recovery process. Not only do the carbohydrates replenish your glycogen stores, they also encourage the release of insulin, which plays a significant role in the transportation and uptake of the pro-tein in your shake. As far as protein powder, a clean high quality whey protein concentrate is a sensible choice, but if your budget permits it, you can’t beat cross flow microfiltered whey protein isolate. It has both an outstanding protein percentage and biological value, two important considerations. Feel free to add other ingredients and nutritional supplements to your post workout shakes. Creatine, glutamine, and flax seed oil are all valuable additions. Remember, your workout really isn’t over when you put down that last dumbbell or step off the treadmill; it’s when you unplug and put away your blender.

WORLD DIABETES DAYWorld Diabetes Day is on November 14. Diabetes is recognized as a world epidemic. The number of people that will be diag-nosed with Type II diabetes is expected to rise dramatically over the next few years. By controlling our weight, exercising, we can have a great effect on our chances of getting the disease.

FOOT HEALTH & DIABETESIf you are a diabetic already, do you check your feet daily? Dia-betics often lose nerve sensitivity in their legs and feet. Note particularly any breaks in the skin to prevent any infection from occurring. It’s also extremely important to wear good comfort-able shoes.

RISK FACTORS FOR DIABETESPeople who are overweight are at a greater risk of becoming diabetic. If you want to lose weight, start by setting a realistic goal. Losing only 10% of your current body weight can go a long way to reduce your risk of heart disease, high blood pres-sure, osteoporosis and of course diabetes. No time like the pres-ent to start.

SIGNS OF DIABETESMany Canadians have diabetes and don’t know it. Here are some of the signs of diabetes; frequent urination, fatigue, exces-sive thirst, change in vision and tingling or lack of sensation in feet and legs. Once diagnosed, diabetes is very controllable. See your doctor if you are feeling these symptoms and particu-larly if there is a diabetes history in your family.

Our pharmacy has a complete selection of diabetic supplies. Combine that with all the diabetic knowledge possessed by our pharmacists, we are your Diabetes Centre.

“Did you see that?” I said when he’d gone. He’s been doing that a lot lately and I just don’t know where he gets it from!” My friends exploded into laughter and suddenly of course I knew – he was reflecting my ‘woe is me…why doesn’t life ever go my way’ attitude that I wasn’t even conscious of until that moment. Once conscious of it, I noticed it crept in quite often, at first. However, awareness is powerful and as I practiced simply letting it go when it arose it truly transformed my state of being, which of course impacted my son’s state of being and the general atmosphere in our home.

So what is your predominant state of being? How do you generally feel? What about your pre-dominant mental attitude? What thoughts do you think most of the time? These are the values and habits that our children sponge right up, eventually assuming them as their own state of being and mental attitude. Essentially, these states and thoughts are what play out on the screen of life.

Actually, if we think of our lives as a movie and if we’re not happy with what is playing in any situation, how can we change the picture? Can you imagine getting up and talking to the char-acters in the screen and trying to shift them about? Where would that get you? It would only leave you feeling frustrated and powerless. Yet we do this habitually – the first thing most of us do when we’re not happy with others is to try to change them! This is a thought pattern – and a system of parenting that has been passed down for generations. After years of frustration following this pattern, a wise friend of mine once said, “You know, I’ve finally figured it out: our children are not here so we can teach them how to behave – they’re here to teach us how to behave!”

MENTAL ILLNESSThe medical treatment of mental illness has come a long way since the discovery of the first “tranquilizer” back in 1951. New and much more efficient medications are available today for treating all types of mental illness including bipolar disease and depression. If you or someone close to you has a mental health problem, seek help. Much information is available on-line at: www.cmha.ca

HOME PREGNANCY TESTSHome pregnancy kits are much more dependable today than a few years ago. Manufacturers claim 99% accuracy. For most accurate results, wait until one week after a missed menstrual period. These kits detect a hormone in the urine. If results are needed more quickly, a blood test is available through your doctor.

MOST ACTIVE MUSCLESPerhaps the most active sets of muscles in the human body are those that help our eyes to move and to focus. They do that about 100,000 times per day. You’d have to walk about 80 km to give your leg muscles the same amount of exercise.

ALLERGY SEASONThe allergy season is upon us. There some really effective antihistamines available that can reduce the symptoms without making you drowsy. If the antihistamine doesn’t control the symptoms, there are some “cortisone” -containing nasal sprays that can help. You have to see your doctor for these.

Talk to our pharmacist staff for advice about antihistamines and allergies. There are many to choose from. We can help.
