Make Tis A SafeHoliday Season

Winter holiday tips are avail-able on both the BC Children’sHospital and BC AmbulanceService websites. Here are a ew

to keep in mind this season:1. oys: Choose items thatmatch your child’s age, abil-ities, skills and interest level.Small pieces which can easily come of, and small batteriesand magnets can cause chok-ing and/or internal chemicalburns. oys with strings longerthan 12 inches could stranglebabies and toddlers.

2. Strings o electric lights arehazardous as they are attract-ive to young children. Tey run the risk o being strangled,burned or electrocuted i they get wrapped up in the wires orput lights in their mouths.

3. Fireplaces: A child’s skinis our times thinner than anadult’s and can burn our timesaster. Te glass o a gas replace

heats up to 200˚C (400˚F) in just6 minutes and takes 45 minutesto cool down. Te pilot light o a gas replace may also heat theglass enough to cause a burn.Stay close to your child when ina room with a replace that ison or has recently been turnedof. Block the replace with ahearth gate or screen that boltsinto or around your replace, or

put a saety gate in the doorway to the room with a replace.

4. insel, ornaments and giwrap: While tinsel can makea tree sparkle, it’s also a chok-ing hazard or young children,hang them high and out o yourchild’s reach.

Safe Holiday Season cont’d from pg 22

Also, keep ornaments higher up on the tree as they canbreak easily and cause cuts or harm i swallowed. Be careulo holiday gif-wrapping like bags, paper, ribbons and bows.Tese items can strangle, suocate or choke small children

5. Place your Christmas tree a good distance rom any heat sources such as replaces, radiators or portable heat-ers. Cut a ew inches o the trunk to expose resh wood.Tis allows or better water absorption and will help to keepyour tree rom drying out and becoming a re hazard.

6. Candles and matches create a fre hazard: Evenschool-age kids are drawn to ames, so keep lightedcandles well out o reach. Don’t put lighted candles on atablecloth or anything else that a child could pull down orknock over. Place lighted menorahs on a high surace andnot too close to the edge o a table.

7. Food: Children may be eating unamiliar oods orthe frst time this holiday season. It’s common to see morenjuries in Emergency as a result o children getting large

pieces o pieces o nuts, carrots, or apples stuck in theirairways which can stop them rom breathing. Cut oodsnto small pieces and encourage children to sit quietly

while eating. Children are less likely to choke i they chewood thoroughly beore swallowing.

8. Visiting riends and amily: Te homes you visit may not be childprooed. Each year, curious toddlers choke orget poisoned by exploring and getting their hands on itemsnot meant or children. Tese include: pills, vitamins, medi-cines, cosmetics and cleaning products. I you’re entertain-ng, designate a sae space or visitors’ purses and coats.

Hi Everyone!

My name is Darla and I am 2 yearsold. I have a long sot coat and I am amuted calico.

My story is a little sad, but you canmake it so much happier by adopt-ing me!

I came to the shelter with my twobabies Jack and Jill when we wereall ound strayed. Taking care o two

babies was hard, but taking care o them while I had a bad inection inmy eyes was even harder.

Since coming to the shelter, botho my kids have been adopted,leaving me waiting or my oreverhome. My eyes took a while to clearup, but eventually they did. My leteye scarred a little, so I have lost alittle bit o sight, but don’t worry, itdoesn’t bother me at all. I still getaround just fne, and will be fne oryears to come.

Once you see me, you will all in love!

I am sweet and gentle, and love tobe petted and cuddled. I will evenlet you brush my coat, which should

get done once a week or so, just toensure I don’t get any mats.

Since I was a stray, I might like to gooutside once and a while, supervisedo course. I had to catch enough oodor mysel and my babies too, so I betI would catch some mice or you inmy new home.

I am a pretty laid back girl, and would

do well either on my own or with acat companion. I have encounteredkids while here at the shelter, andthey didn’t scare or bother me, so Iwould ft into your amily easily.

Since I did have an eye inectionbeore, it would be best or my newowners to keep an eye on my eyes asI get older. My caregivers here don’tthink I will have any more problemsbut it is always good to be proactiveabout my care.

Ater reading this, I am sure someoneout there would love to come and

meet me. You can get more inorma-tion on me here at the Trail shelter oryou can call at 250-368-5910 or byemail at [email protected].

Keep Warm AndSave Money Tis Winter

As the days gets shorter and the weather gets colder,energy demand across the province almost doubles aspeople turn up the heat and keep lights and electronics onor longer. In act, space heating costs alone can accountor rom 40 to 50 per cent o the average electricity billdepending on how customers heat their homes.

However, BC Hydro has some easy ways to keep yourbills low this winter. And in the uture with smart meters,you’ll be able to see how much energy you’re using andmake adjustments to save money.

Here are BC Hydro’s top seven energy-ef cient home-heating and lighting tips to help keep your bills low:

• Dra-proo your home – Sealing the gaps and crackswith caulking and weather stripping is one o the mostcost-eective steps you can take to keep the heat insideyour home, reducing heat loss by up to 10 per cent.

• Manage your thermostat – Install a programmablethermostat. Most people are comortable sitting reading or

watching V at 21 degrees C, working around the house at20 degrees C, and sleeping at 16 degrees C. Heating costsrise about 5 per cent or every degree above 20 degrees Cthat you set your thermostat.

• Shade your windows – Using blinds or drapes on yourwindows provide insulation in the winter and summer.Heat loss rom windows can account or 10 – 25 per cento your heating bill in winter.

• Maintain your heating system – une up your heatingequipment and continue to give it regular maintenance inorder to increase its energy ef ciency.

• Add or upgrade insulation - Upgrading your heatingsystem might make your home warmer, but i it can’t holdthe heat in, you’ll be wasting energy. Start in areas that losethe most heat, such as attics, basements and crawlspaces.

• Ensure your replace is ef cient – With wood-burningreplaces, close the damper tightly when the replace isnot in use. Tis can dramatically reduce heat loss. I youuse the replace only occasionally, install glass doors. Tey act as a barrier against warm air loss up the chimney andstop the pull o cold outside air into the home.

• Use energy-ef cient lighting – LEDs use at least 75 percent less energy than incandescent lighting and can last about20 years based on average household use. ENERGY STARLEDs come on quickly, are durable and good or dimming.

Creative Writing CourseI you’ve ever had a notion to write a novel, been mean-

ing to scribe your memoirs, or pride yoursel on yourpoetry then a rare opportunity to enhance your writingskills begins Tursday, January 5 in Nelson.

Te Creative Writing 100 course is the frst credit oer-ing in its feld available in Nelson or a decade. Univer-sity-transerable courses in creative writing were oeredby the writing department at the Kootenay School o theArts until 2002, when KSA’s writing and mixed media de-

partments were terminated in a cutback. Since then, writ-ing courses and workshops have been available in the city only on a non-credit basis, sponsored by the Oxygen ArtCentre and the Kootenay School o Writing.

Instructor or the Selkirk course is Almeda GlennMiller rom the College’s English Department. Miller’spublications include the novel iger Dreams, and shehas published non-fction in such journals as Event andthe Nelson Public Library’s 2010 undraiser Seasonings.Among her other publications are book reviews or theoronto Globe and Mail and poetry or CBC Kelowna’s “A

Verse to Summer” program.“Te credit course in Nelson is a marvellous chance or

anybody with a yen to write,” said Verna Relko, ormerhead o KSA’s writing department. “Whether you’re a be-ginner, need to crank up your inspiration and imagina-tion, or are looking to connect with other people inter-ested in writing, this is a lucky development well worthtaking advantage o.”

Initiative Picking Up TePieces At Te Library

Te current exhibition at the Nel-son Public Library is all about pickingup the pieces – and turning them intosomething beautiul.

“As someone unable to throw outanything — particularly shimmer-ing morsels o material — I gather upall the allen bits at the end o every project,” explains abric artist KateBridger. “Afer many projects, thereare enough saved scraps or me todip my hands into a gorgeous bucketo potential abric brushstrokes andstart to play.”

Te result is a body o work Bridgercalls Picking up the Pieces — abstractsthat “portray the ordinary caught ineeting moments when it is not allbundled up and packaged as we ex-pect it to be,” she says.

Included in the exhibition are ab-ric “paintings” such as Picking up thePieces of a Fish Ladder, with its uidlines and shapes, Picking up the Piecesof a Mountain, an ice-coloured hom-age, and Picking up the Pieces of aGarden Rake, an intricate assemblageo tines and oliage.

Kate Bridger has been a practicingabric artist since the early 1980s.Over the years she has invented, re-ned, and experimented with materi-als, subject matter, and techniques.Her abric collages, rendered withreestyle machine stitching, portray landscapes, streetscapes, wildlie,architecture, and abstracts.

“I am attracted to abric as my medium because it provides instanttexture, because o its layering prop-erties, and because o the unpredict-ability o this relatively unstablemedium that ofen leads me downpaths I had not oreseen,” she says.

Picking up the Pieces will be on dis-play in the library through Decemberand January. 10% rom each sale willbe donated by the artist to the NelsonFood Cupboard.

“Productivity is driven by investment in physical capital,human capital and innovation,” says Paul Wiest, Managerof Community Futures Central Kootenay in Nelson. “Wewanted to take a close look at these drivers, and see howorganizations like ours can help small and medium-sizedbusinesses improve their productivity.”

British Columbia performs below most provinces whent comes to productivity measures. In a recent Conference

Board of Canada report, British Columbia received a “D”

grade when ranked against ten comparative economic re-gions.

“British Columbia’s low productivity score has far-reaching implications for businesses within the Kootenay Boundary region,” says Rob Gay, Manager of Commun-ity Futures East Kootenay in Cranbrook. “Many need tocompete with businesses in Alberta, which ranks higherthan BC when it comes to productivity. In this region, theage of our workforce is also higher than the provincialaverage, and our immigration numbers are lower. Takentogether these statistics could see our region fall furtherbehind in the not too distant future.”

Businesses in the Kootenay Boundary region interestedin taking part are invited to contact Paul Wiest at 250-352-1933.
