Help is close to home®.Help is close to home®. Wireless consultation for CanadiansPlans to protect cell phone users
were announced by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommu-nications (CRTC) Thursday.
OpenMedia.ca said it’s pleased because the plan will invite public consultation for national rules for wireless.
“We’re welcoming this consulta-tion, noting that with only three large companies controlling 94 percent of the cell phone market in Canada, there simply isn’t enough choice to ensure Canadians are getting a fair deal,” OpenMedia.ca noted.
The CRTC will be accepting com-ments until Nov. 20, and the public hearing will begin Jan. 28, 2013 in Gatineau, Que. Submissions can be mailed or emailed.
“In light of the commission’s de-
termination that it is appropriate to establish a mandatory code to ad-dress the clarity and content of mo-bile wireless service contracts and related issues for consumers, the commission invites detailed com-ments, with supporting rationale, on the content of the wireless code, to whom the wireless code should ap-ply, how the wireless code should be enforced and promoted, and how the wireless code’s effectiveness should be assessed and reviewed,” the CRTC said.
“It is the preliminary view that the Wireless Code should address clar-ity of contract terms and conditions, changes to contract terms and con-ditions, contract cancellation, expi-ration and renewal, clarity of adver-tised prices, application of the code
to bundles of telecommunications services, notification of additional fees, privacy policies, hardware warranties and related issues, loss or theft of hardware, security deposits, and disconnections.”
Through a form on the Open-Media.ca website, Canadians have been asking the CRTC to put the public interest first in the develop-ment of these protections – to build on the proposed Ontario rules, as well as the protections in Manitoba and Quebec.
“From price-gouging to tight con-tracts, Canadians have been targeted by unfair practices for a long time,” OpenMedia.ca executive director Steve Anderson said. “We already pay some of the highest cell phone fees and are forced into some of the
most punitive, long-term contracts in the industrialized world. We’re pleased the CRTC is making plans to protect Canadians.”
OpenMedia.ca will be scrutiniz-ing the results of the proceeding, Anderson warned, adding, “we don’t want to enter into a situation where strong provincial rules (in places like Manitoba and Quebec) are superceded by weaker national rules.”
OpenMedia.ca encourages all Canadians to participate in the pro-ceeding.
Information on how to submit a response is located at: https://services.crtc.gc.ca/pub/instances-proceedings/Default-Defaut.aspx?S=O&PA=T&PT=A&PST=A&Lang=eng.

Get the facts about the flu shotFlu season is ap-
proaching and public health nurses across In-terior Health are gearing up for the launch of this year’s influenza (flu) vaccination campaign.
Public flu clinics will begin in some commu-nities the week of Oct. 15.
“There are many myths and misconcep-tions about the flu shot so it’s important for people to get accurate information to help them stay healthy,” said Dr. Rob Parker, Medi-cal Health Officer with Interior Health. “For example, the flu shot cannot give you the flu. The vaccine used in B.C. contains dead in-fluenza viruses that can-not cause infection.”
Influenza is a highly contagious infection and can be very seri-ous, especially for those with heart, lung and other health problems. In years when influenza is widespread in B.C., hundreds of people may
die from influenza or its complications, such as pneumonia.
“The two most im-portant ways to protect yourself from getting the flu are to wash your hands frequently and get your flu shot,” said Dr. Parker. “Flu vac-cinations are a proven, safe and effective way to reduce your chances of getting the flu. The flu shot also lessens the severity of symptoms for those who do get the flu.”
In B.C. the flu
vaccine is free for: • People 65 years and
older and their caregiv-ers/household contacts
• All children age six to 59 months of age
• Household contacts and caregivers of in-fants age 0 to 59 months of age
• Children and adults with chronic health con-ditions and their house-hold contacts
• Aboriginal people
• Children & adoles-cents (6 months to 18 years) with conditions treated for long periods of time with Aspirin® or ASA and their house-hold contacts
• Residents of nursing homes and other chron-ic care facilities
• Pregnant women who will be in their third trimester during influenza season and their household contacts (pregnant women who are in other high risk groups can be immu-nized at any time during the pregnancy)
• People who are very obese (BMI > 40)
• Health-care and other care providers in facilities and commu-nity settings who are ca-pable of transmitting in-fluenza disease to those at high risk of influenza complications
• People who pro-vide essential commu-nity services (First Re-sponders, Corrections Workers)
• Inmates of provin-
cial correctional institu-tions
• People who work with live poultry and/or swine
• Individuals who provide care or service in potential outbreak settings housing high risk persons (e.g., crew on ships)
“Everyone can bene-fit from a flu shot. Even if you don’t become severely ill, getting the flu can mean several missed days of school or work and you may pass it on to someone who is at greater risk,” said Dr. Parker.
“The flu shot is any-where from 60 to 90 per cent effective in pre-venting influenza and if you don’t get it you can’t spread it.”
People not eligible for the free flu vaccine through the publicly-funded program should contact their physician, local pharmacy, walk-in clinic, travel clinic or private provider.
To find a flu clinic
near you, watch for lo-cal announcements on dates and times in your community, visit our website atwww.interi-orhealth.ca (under Your Health > Immunization > 2012 Seasonal Flu Campaign) for a com-plete listing or contact your local public health office.
Many physician of-fices and pharmacies also provide vaccines free to those who are eligible.
For more informa-tion about influenza, contact your local pub-lic health office (look under Interior Health in the blue pages of your phone book) or visit our website at www.interi-orhealth.ca.
Information is also available on the Im-munize BC website at www.immunizebc.ca, or on HealthLink BC at www.healthlinkbc.ca. You can also call HealthLink BC at 8-1-1 to speak to a health-care professional.

Sacred Heart Catholic School celebrated its 20th birthday party Thursday, Oct. 4 with activities at the school. The Memory Lane dis-plays gave fami-lies the opportu-nity to look back at photo albums, newspaper clip-pings, yearbooks and other memo-rabilia. There were also games to play, a barbecue, and family dance. At top left, student Conley and his mom Leigh Pin-ette, a member of the school’s par-ent support group, play the bungee run game.

People over the age of 60 make up a large part of the traveling community. This age group is more susceptible to
medical problems while traveling and do well to adhere to preventive measures like: wearing support stockings on long-distance flights; keeping up hydration; washing hands often; using disposable tissues and even using face masks in crowded situations and insect repellents when called for.
Stem cells are unique cells in the body that have the ability to change into other types of cells. They could be used to repair spinal cord injuries, repair damaged hearts and even help Alzheimer’s patients. It was found recently that stem cells remain alive up to two weeks after death. Donation of organs is common and in the future, stem cell donation could also be an option.
It’s always a concern whether the pollution we put into our air is causing health problems. The World Health Organization recently added diesel fumes to the list of chemicals that cause cancer. Diesel fumes were formerly listed as a “probable” cause of cancer. It now has been reclassified to have “definite links with cancer”.
Muscle cramps could be caused by an electrolyte imbalance which is easily confirmed by a blood test. If that’s not the problem, try leg stretches before bedtime and keep alcohol and caffeine consumption to a minimum because they can cause dehydration which can make cramps more likely to happen.
For fast, courteous and informative prescription service, give our brand of pharmacy a try.

poolmeeting
MOniCA LAMb-YOrSkiTribune Staff Writer
Public consulta-tions Friday and Sat-urday on the feasibil-ity study of the Sam Ketcham Pool, with a special youth meet-ing today at 3:30 p.m. and opportunities for the public to view the plans at various ki-osks around the city.
Pool task force member Coun. Lau-rie Walters strongly encourages the public come out and give the consultants, Profes-sional Environmental Recreation Consul-tants (PERC), feed-back on the proposed plans.
“The huge impor-tance of the process cannot be stated. The value of public input is crucial at this time. It’s so important for the community to participate. It’s a 50-
year program that will have wide impact,” Walters says.
The city’s manager of active living Deb Radolla told council Tuesday there will be a special youth meet-ing at 3:30 p.m. today (Friday).
After the pub-lic consultation, the committee will have a phone wrap up ses-sion, and from there a report will be de-veloped with one fi-nal recommendation, based on information gleaned during the three-day consulta-tion period.
Kiosks will be set up on Friday at Safe-way from 1:30 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. and at Walmart 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. and on Saturday at Save on Foods 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., Cana-dian Tire 12:15 p.m. to 1:45 p.m. and the Recreation Complex 2 p.m. to 3 p.m.

Invasive species reviewedFollowing on a com-
mitment to crack down on invasive species, such as the snakehead fish, the B.C. govern-ment has released a se-ries of policy intentions for public comment.
“Our first priority must be to ensure the protection of natural ecosystems from expo-sure to unnecessary risk as a result of the release of invasive non-native species.
This consultation will help us deliver the most effective regulations possible in preventing the spread of danger-ous,” Minister of For-ests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, Steve Thompson said.
A paper summariz-ing the B.C. govern-ment’s policy intention to amend the Controlled Alien Species Regula-tion has been released, and the public are in-vited to share their feed-back until Oct. 24.
The proposed amend-ments will help pre-vent the introduction of aquatic invasive species that present a significant risk to B.C.’s fish and wildlife resources. Main measures include:
• Significantly reduc-ing the possibility of high-risk aquatic species - including the snake-head fish - becoming established in local wa-ters, by prohibiting the possession, breeding, release or transportation of these species.
• Combating the in-troduction of danger-ous organisms such as the zebra and quagga mussels that ‘hitchhike’ on boats, by requiring that no invasive mussel, alive or dead, be pres-ent on boats or related equipment.
Other changes being recommended
include: • Adding definitions
for “accredited zoo or aquarium,” “certified
education institution” and “certified research institution” to create clarity on standards, and allow exemp-
tions to apply for strict educational or scientific
purposes. • Clarifying which
species of monitor lizard are prohibited; typically those that grow over two metres in length or that otherwise create a sig-nificant threat to public safety.
Minister of Environ-ment Terry Lake said the introduction of a snake-head fish into Burnaby’s Central Park lagoon was
a wake-up call for ev-eryone.
“While quick-acting government biologists were able to address the situation, strong regula-tion is needed to help prevent this from ever happening again.”
All other Canadian and neighbouring U.S. jurisdictions have simi-lar restrictions on aquat-ic invasive species.
Presently the existing controlled alien species (CAS) regulations are designed to control the possession, breeding, shipping and releasing of animals not native to
B.C. that pose a risk to the health or safety of people, property, wild-life or wildlife habitat.
It is in direct violation of CAS regulation under the Wildlife Act to pos-sess a controlled alien species without the ap-propriate permit.
• Individuals cannot possess, breed, release or transport prohibited alien species unless they have been granted a per-mit from the ministry.

B.C. continues tough questioningat pipeline hearings
VICTORIA - The B.C. government re-sumed its questioning of Northern Gateway Pipelines (NGP) at the Joint Review Panel hearings in Prince George this week, concentrating on key areas of concerns in-cluding safety, acci-dent prevention and emergency prepared-ness and response.
As a registered in-tervenor at the Joint Review Panel hear-ings, the government of B.C. questioned NGP on their pro-posed land-based spill prevention, response and recovery systems.
It also sought infor-mation about access to the pipeline, the potential location of spills and availability of equipment and per-sonnel.
B.C. asked for more information about the nature of the monitor-ing systems that NGP is proposing, includ-ing leak detection sys-tems.
The B.C. govern-ment’s cross-exami-nation took place in
two segments, deal-ing with different as-pects of the proposed project. B.C.’s Chief Legal Strategist Geoff Plant was at the hear-ings on Tuesday.
Underlying the lat-est round of questions were B.C.’s five mini-mum requirements that must be met for the government to consider the construc-tion and operation of heavy oil pipelines within its borders.
Those require-ments are:
* Successful com-pletion of the envi-ronmental review process. In the case of the NGP, that means a recommendation by the National Energy Board Joint Review Panel that the project proceeds.
* World-leading marine oil spill pre-vention, response and recovery systems for B.C.’s coastline and ocean to manage and mitigate the risks and costs of heavy oil pipelines and ship-ments.
* World-leading
practices for land oil spill prevention, re-sponse and recovery systems to manage and mitigate the risks and costs of heavy oil pipelines.
* Legal requirements regarding Aboriginal and treaty rights are addressed, and First Nations are provided with the opportuni-ties, information and resources necessary to participate in and ben-efit from a heavy oil project.
* British Columbia receives a fair share of the fiscal and eco-nomic benefits of a proposed heavy oil project that reflect the level, degree and na-ture of the risk borne by the government, the environment and taxpayers.
The B.C. govern-ment has already cross-examined NGP at the hearings in Ed-monton.
There, the cross-examination focused on Enbridge’s liability coverage, ownership structure and related financial matters.
Financial solvency is a key factor when considering the risks and costs associated with any potential spill response and re-covery.
The B.C. govern-ment firmly believes in the polluter pay principle, and the evi-dence given by En-bridge in Edmonton left more questions than answers about whether the proponent will put arrangements in place to respect that principle.
In late November, the government of B.C. will cross-ex-amination NGP at the hearings in Prince Ru-pert and will question the company on mari-time spill prevention, response and recovery capabilities, includ-ing its commitments to exceed regulatory standards for spill re-sponse.
The government of British Columbia will continue to en-sure that any heavy oil pipeline proposal in the province meets the five requirements that
have been established, thereby providing certainty, predictabil-ity and transparency about the B.C. gov-ernment’s position on any heavy oil pipeline project proposal.
I once read only a crazy person would consider extracting honey inside their house. Of course, the author is right. Ex-tracting honey inside your home are the ac-tions of a mad wom-an. How do I know? Because I have been extracting honey in my home for the past three summers.
For the small bee-keeper with a couple hives in the garden, there aren’t a whole lot of options. I mean, where else are you supposed to extract your honey? You certainly can’t do it outside unless you want 100,000 bees descending on your unfortunate honey-thieving head and garages, barns and sheds are not always the cleanest, nor do they usually have ac-cess to things like hot running water. So the house it is.
If you ever want to do an experiment of how many things in your home you touch in a day, all you need is a honey extrac-tor and a stack of supers. At day’s end you will be amazed to find honey on but-tons, handles, railing and knobs. On walls, steps, floors and doors. On shoelaces, phones, computers and pets.
I am happy (and so are the pets) to report that things are a lot less sticky as I have become more experi-enced. The first year I didn’t have a clue what I was doing and spent a large part of my time rushing all
over the house doing frantic Google search-es, looking for books and hunting down various paraphernalia such as sieves, pans and knives. The hon-ey health inspector would have been less than impressed.
Today the extrac-tion operation runs like a clean well oiled machine...or an ad-equately greased one anyway. An added bonus is when I’m finished the entire house still carries the lingering scent of honey.
This is in stark contrast to the sau-erkraut-making I re-cently completed. When sauerkraut starts to ferment there is nothing sweet about it. Woo wee! Now there’s a fra-grance you won’t find on a perfume shelf. The instructions on making sauerkraut informed me if my house smelled like a wicked fart things were progressing as they should. Judging by the odour wafting from the crock, we could only conclude I was doing a stellar job. However, with only two ingredients (salt and cabbage) I would have had to
work pretty hard to screw things up.
In hindsight, I am so glad I made the sauerkraut first and extracted honey sec-ond. It would have been so unfortunate to have to mask over all that beautiful honey smell with the scent of wicked fart.
The only downside was during the honey extraction I smelled like honey too. That might not seem like a bad thing, but given the recent bear-in-the-garden incident, it was a tad unsettling to go outside knowing I smelled like a bear’s favorite condiment.
I could just imagine the bear’s reaction. “Hey! Check out what we have in the garden aisle. Honey basted human! How convenient is that?”
One thing I don’t want to be is con-venience food for a bear. I think I’ll stick with being fast food instead; food that runs fast; very, very, fast.
As I scuttle about gathering food for
winter it occurs to me the only difference between me and a bear is she carries her pantry in her stomach while mine is off the kitchen. I almost feel sorry for her. It’s hard to admire your stores when they’re hidden in layers of fat. I love going into my pantry to admire the spar-kling jars of apple juice, honey, pickles, sauerkraut, wannabe-jelly but-instead-syrup, dried apples and tomatoes. I revel in my shelf of bees-wax and dried herbs; sometimes I spin off a lid just to inhale a tantalizing whiff of peppermint, lemon balm or sweet cicely. I think I get as much pleasure from admir-ing my winter provi-sions as I do consum-ing them. I doubt the bear contemplates her pudgy belly with the same delight. But who knows? I’m not a bear. Maybe bears do admire their bellies while slimmer bru-ins look on in envy; after all, the bigger the belly the better
the odds of survival. Their wealth is in their fat. For a bear, having the biggest belly is like having a mansion with a BMW parked in front. Too bad we humans don’t view our bellies that way. As for me, I’m not so much worried about a beer belly as I am glad not to be a bear belly.

Halloween tips for pet ownersWith Halloween around
the corner it’s a good time to start planning on how you can keep your pets safe and happy when the trick-or-treaters come calling.
While Halloween is great fun for kids, the fireworks, strange cos-tumes and constant ring-ing of the doorbell can spook even the calmest of animals. When dogs and cats are frightened they are more likely to run away from their homes, jump out of open windows or dart into traf-fic. Stressed pets can also behave out of character —scratching or biting out of fear.
The BC SPCA offers these Halloween safety tips:
Keep pets inside. Pets who are inside have fewer opportunities to confront trick-or-treaters. Some pets do well left in a sep-arate room with the radio or television on to mask the sound of fireworks and trick-or-treaters. Be sure to leave plenty of toys in the room for your pet so that he doesn’t think he’s being isolated as a punishment. If your pet finds the doorbell dis-turbing, consider discon-necting the doorbell for the night. Alternatively, you can leave a bowl of treats near the door out-side where trick-or-treat-ers can help themselves.
Make sure your pet is wearing identification. Dogs and cats may try to run away if they feel
threatened. Clear, current identification is your best chance to have them re-
turned to you.Don’t console your
anxious pet. While it is
natural to want to comfort your pet if he or she is frightened of fireworks, it is better to use a bright, cheerful voice to send a message that things are fine. Avoid saying things like, “it’s OK” or “don’t be scared” in a soft or sympathetic voice. This only reinforces your pet’s fearful behaviour.
Candy is for people. Candy can lead to health problems such as diabe-tes or obesity, and choco-late is especially danger-ous because it contains theobromine, which is toxic to dogs and cats. Keep treats well away from your pets.
Leave home without them.While you might think it would be fun to bring your dog trick-or-
treating, your pet may not share your view. The strange sights and sounds of Halloween can cause a normally friendly dog to bite if they feel scared or threatened.
Don’t costume your pet.Dressing your dog in a costume inhibits his ability to communi-cate normally with other dogs, making him prone to display aggression himself or be subjected to aggressive behaviour from other dogs.

Lucas makes birthday donation to save puppies
After receiving 11 four-week-old puppies left for dead at the Alexis Creek store the Williams Lake B.C. SPCA sent out a plea for some much needed puppy milk as well as food and volun-teers to help until pups were placed into a fos-ter home. One puppy did not survive the first night, leaving 10 of them to feed and care for. Lu-cas and Maddy Beka and their SPCA-adopted dog Dante stopped in for a visit to drop of donations raised from Lucas’ fifth birthday. The Williams Lake branch was told that Lucas really wanted to help the animals at the shelter for his birthday.

Photographer and traveller Marjorie Clayton talks about her collec-tion of black and white photographs taken while travelling alone in Gambia, Africa, during the opening of her show at the Station House Gallery, Oct. 4. The Ontario photographer travelled to Gam-bia to document the lives of marginalized men in that society. She captured the images the old fashioned way on film, and produced the images in her dark room for her show called At Home with Yusepha. Each picture somes with a story. Gaeil Farrar photo

It started as a thought. On November 22, 1990, a group of parents and parishioners got together as a Catholic Education Committee to explore the option of a Catholic School in Williams Lake. With approval from the Kamloops Diocese, the council was in place by May of 1991 and the foundation of Sacred Heart Catholic School was developed.
The school opened as a K-1 split with Mrs. Marlene Koslofski as principal and Mrs. Susan Martin was hired as the first teacher of the school.In 1995/96 the school was forced to expand due to the steady increase in enrollment. The hallway and classrooms on the top and bottom floors were built. The addition to the school could not have been done if it wasn’t for the countless volunteer hours and generous donations from ourparish and community. Overall, the new addition cost the school just over $300,000, a very low price compared to the millions that was projected.
Mrs. Koslofski was instrumental over the next 15 years developing and expanding the school into a full K-7 elementary with enrollment well over 100 students.
Throughout the past 20 years Sacred Heart has provided the community of Williams Lake with a choice for their children’s education. An option that provides high quality education, community and a culture that radiates Gospel teachings.

New regulations will give health authorities the ability to provide nurse practitioners (NPs) with the ability to admit and discharge patients from health-care facilities, working in collaboration with physicians and other health-care providers, Health Minister Dr. Margaret MacDiarmid announced Thursday.
“Giving nurse prac-titioners the ability to admit and discharge patients from hospitals will help to both ease congestion and enhance patient quality within the health-care system.
This will especially be helpful in rural and remote areas of the province, where recruit-ment and retention can be particularly chal-lenging,” MacDiarmid said.
The regulations are expected to help en-hance health services and meet patient need by easing congestion and reducing work-loads, especially for ru-ral regions.
The majority of NPs in B.C. have the educa-tion and competencies required to admit and discharge, but did not have the abilitylegis-lated.
British Columbia is the second jurisdiction in Canada to have qual-ified nurse practitioners admit and discharge patients from hospitals, after Ontario.
Nurse practitioners were introduced to B.C. in 2005 to assist in improving access to primary health-care services.
In fall 2011, the government of British Columbia passed leg-islation allowing nurse practitioners to work more fully within their existing scope of prac-tice. In May 2012, the provincial government announced a $22.2 mil-lion to fund 190 NPs over the next three years to provide better access to health care for British Columbian families.
NPs meet many health-care needs of the community, increasing access to quality pri-mary and community health care. NPs provide services from a holistic nursing perspective, in-tegrating elements such
as diagnosing, prescrib-ing, ordering diagnos-tic tests for treating most common medical conditions for patients throughout the lifespan. Nurse practitioners also work collaboratively in a broad variety of set-tings including acute
care, residential care, mental health and com-munity practice, with physicians and other health-care providers.
“On behalf of the BC Nurse Practitioner Association, I’d like to thank the government of British Columbia for
giving nurse practitio-ners the ability to admit and discharge patients.
This will help to en-hance health-care ser-vices around British Columbia,” Rosemary Graham, president, BC Nurse Practitioner As-sociation said.

Find a Church......Sponsored by Williams Lake Christian Ministerial Association
Cameron Johnston is with the Central Cariboo Seventh-day Adventist ChurchPlease send questions to: [email protected]
Chris Harder is the Lead Pastor at Williams Lake Alliance Church. Raised in the lower mainland, Chris served churches in Montana from 1993 until moving back to B.C. in May 2012
My wife, daughter, and I bade hasty goodbyes after church this past Sunday, jumped in the car where sandwiches were waiting, and drove �ve straight hours to get to Abbotsford in time for Thanksgiving dinner with our extended family and some old friends. No potty breaks. No stop for Annie’s amazing pie in Cache Creek. And, thankfully, not too much traf�c along the way.
As we rolled along, I found myself giving thanks – sometimes aloud, sometimes just in my own inner space of gratitude – for what was happening in that moment: Driving safely in an old car that has refused to consume anything but gasoline and regular oil changes in the past year. A summer and early fall that has been graced with some of the nicest weather we’ve ever seen, making the drive through the Cariboo and down the Fraser Canyon a journey of magni�cence, rather than a mere commute. Listening to a CD I’d forgotten about, and enjoying it for the �rst time all over again. Being blessed enough to live within a half-day’s drive of our family. Oh, and let’s not forget to give thanks for bladders that know how to do their jobs. Yeah, it was a long drive.
All of this, of course, could have been viewed in a different light altogether. Let me rephrase: I’m driving a prehistoric car that I can’t afford to replace for �ve solid hours, making me miss my Sunday afternoon nap, and my ancient CD player won’t read the disc that I really wanted to play, and I can’t even stop to go to the bathroom because we have to be to dinner on time. Now that would have been a really long drive.
Truthfully, I can be a bit of a whiner, but
my faith has been teaching me the value of giving thanks. The apostle Paul, a man well-experienced in adversity, commanded (yes, commanded – this is mandatory), “Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
I can spend a lot of time wondering what God’s plan for my life might be. Right here I’m told that God’s plan is for me to exhibit gratitude in the middle of whatever my journey leads me through. As someone else put it, “We can’t determine most of what happens to us in life, but we can determine our response to it.”
A couple of years ago, I was sur�ng the web, looking for information about gratitude. At Thanksgiving we’re all supposed to “give thanks” for stuff in our
lives, and I wondered if it actually does us any good. I happened upon the highlights of a research project on the effects of thankfulness by Dr. Robert Emmons, a psychologist at UC Davis. It was fascinating! They have documented proof that being a thankful person dramatically increases someone’s happiness.
I was encouraged by what I read, so, in the spirit of gratitude I wrote Dr. Emmons an email thanking him for his work. I told him that I could hardly teach God’s word each week without encouraging people to live thankful lives, and I mentioned that whenever I look at the �ndings of modern-day researchers they almost always end up supporting the teachings of the bible.
Here’s the reply I received from him: “Dear Pastor Chris, Thank you so much for your af�rming e-mail. Our God is an awesome God. It is a gift to be able to demonstrate the healing power of gratefulness to Him and to all of life. As you say, scienti�c research most often corroborates Biblical truth and certainly does in this case.” I love it when God connects the dots for us.
Remember when I said gratitude is mandatory? The funny thing we’ll �nd is that when God tells us to do something it always ends up being good for us. That’s because he loves us, and that’s the biggest thing I could possibly be thankful for. I have so much to be thankful for because God is the ultimate giver: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Life and eternity come alive with new meaning, new possibility, when I say thank you to God.

This cozy three-bedroom bungalow comes with an unfinished basement, so living space can increase along with a growing family’s needs. At the heart of the home is a spacious great
room, open to the dining area and kitchen. The great room’s corner fireplace will make this space especially popular in the cooler months. In summer, access to a large sundeck, half of it covered, will not only offer the perfect spot for al fresco meals but also provide extra room for family activities and for entertaining. The cook will never feel isolated in the kitchen,
which is separated from the dining area only by a hexagonal island, which includes a raised eating bar for casual meals. A pantry will supply lots of storage space, and the U-shaped counter configuration will save steps.The master bedroom also enjoys access to
the sundeck, which overlooks the back garden. There’s a capacious walk-in closet, as well as an ensuite. The second bedroom, at the front of the home, is
situated next to a roomy laundry, with access from the double garage. The laundry room can also serve as a mud room, thanks to a storage bench and storage cupboard. The third bedroom has its own covered porch. A three-piece bathroom, including a linen closet, is nearby.

The River Will Speak To You...
Bonnie Raven Dawn LouieOctober 6, 1989 - October 13, 2007
Missing youLove you more
Forever in our hearts
James and Sylvia Harry & families
Dale leaves behind his wife Isabelle (Babe) of 53 years, four children - Liz (David) Vaughan, T.C. (Terry) Romine, Kelly Valburg, Chris (Tracy Janzen) Valburg; 10 grandchildren and three great grandchildren; sister Darlene Fuoss and brother Bill Valburg, brother-in-law Bob Jackson, sister-in-law Nancy (Lowell) Iverson and many nieces and nephews in South Dakota.
Dale and Babe moved with their kids from a small ranch in South Dakota to Horsey in 1969 where they continued ranching. Dale quickly became involved in the community attending rodeos and joining many clubs. He also started coaching many young men in the sport of boxing which was just one of Dale’s passions and in 1979 he was voted Citizen of the Year.
Family always came rst for Dale and this was proven time and time again through his patience, guidance and love. Friends and neighbours also knew that Dale would be there when called whether it was a midnight call as a country vet, branding, haying or just to have coffee.
Dale touched the lives of many and a celebration of his life will be held on Sunday, October 21, 2012 at 2 p.m. in the Horsey Community Hall. A memory album will be created and stories and memories will be treasured.
In lieu of owers, donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation or B.C. Lung Association would be greatly appreciated.
In Loving Memory of Dale Ray Valburg

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION NOTICE
Application for an Authorization to Discharge Waste under the Provisions of the Environmental Management Act.
We/I, Tie Point Consulting Inc., PO Box 1099, 150 Mile House, BC, intend to submit an application to the Director to authorize the discharge of air emissions from open burning of piled wood debris. The source(s) of discharge are piled wood debris.
The land upon which the discharge will occur is unsurveyed crown land, located approximately 17 km east of Likely, BC, in the vicinity of Winkley Creek. Licensee for the treatment area is Likely Xats’ull Community Forest.
The maximum rate of air emissions discharged from this site will be 500 m3/day. The operating period for this facility will be 7 days/week. The characteristics of the waste discharged are as follows: Wood smoke from the burning of woody debris collected and piled by excavator from dead or down debris, brush and branches. The type of treatment to be applied to the discharge is: Open Burning. The treatment area is approximately 1.9 hectares. Burning of debris piles is being carried out to reduce fuels in the wildland-urban interface and thereby reduce the risk and/or intensity of potential wildfi re.
Any person who may be adversely affected by the proposed discharge of waste and wishes to provide relevant information may, within 30 days after the last date of posting, publishing, service or display, send written comments to the applicant, with a copy to the Regional Manager, Environmental Protection at Suite 400 – 640 Borland Street, Williams Lake, BC V2G 4T1.
