$1247 Halloween night turns violentMONICA LAMB-YORSKI
Freezing rain did not deter criminal activity on Halloween night.
RCMP Inspector Warren Brown said 20 people were lodged in cells in Williams Lake on Hallow-een night.
Shortly after 9 p.m. the RCMP responded to a complaint of a home invasion on Barnard Street.
Multiple calls were received about a group of people who had burst into a residence armed with machetes, bats, and bear spray.
Once inside the residence, the suspects attempted to assault the residents, although the residents were successful in securing them-selves in a locked room.
The assailants then completely ransacked the interior of the resi-dence using extreme violence.
When police attended, after a foot pursuit with several of the suspects, police managed to cor-ner the assailants at a residence on Pinchbeck Street.
A hostile and unco-operative group of 12 people believed to be involved were arrested.
Fortunately, the victims did not suffer any injuries; however, there is extensive damage to the residence on Barnard Street along with the three vehicles parked at the residence, one of which was stolen and recovered during the incident.
Brown said the home owners did not invite this activity nor did they know the assailants.
“They unfortunately got caught in between a conflict between this large group and one individual, a neighbour, that they were trying to help.”
The investigation is on going and suspects remain in custody.
All suspects are well known to the police and were all adults, ex-cept for one. Some with gang af-filiation, Brown told the Tribune.
Just after midnight, the RCMP were called to a residence on Pi-geon Avenue to deal with a fight in progress.
Upon police arrival several of the suspects fled from the scene.
These suspects were armed with bear spray.
Again, after a foot chase, three suspects were arrested.
All combatants were known to each other.
Compared to other years it was a busy Halloween night for the RCMP.
“We are usually well staffed and prepared to take a higher volume of calls for service,” Brown said.

ICE STORM MAKES FOR A SLIPPERY HALLOWEEN These blueberries grow-ing in Horsefly were the-atrically encapsulated in ice when freezing rain and snow descended on Wil-liams Lake area on Hal-loween. The roads, and sidewalks in Williams Lake were so slick by Thursday morning that school buses were cancelled. Many peo-ple had to spend extra time removing thick layers of ice from their vehicles. The haunted house on Ninth Avenue hosted by the Me-tis Association also had to be cancelled at the last minute due to the freezing conditions.The city also issued no-tices for residents to take extra precautions as they struggled to clean up the streets and sidewalks.Don’t forget to turn your clocks back an hour Satur-day night as Daylight Sav-ings Time ends.

The folic acid found in prenatal vitamin formulas is essential in preventing neural tube defects in
the developing fetus. These defects can develop within 28 days after conception so it is important to start taking prenatal supplements about three months before planning to become pregnant. Continue taking them throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding as well.Donating blood is a very selfless thing to do. It is easy to do, too, and you can’t catch any disease by donating. You can donate every eight weeks but if each Canadian eligible to donate did it only twice yearly, there would be enough blood for all medical needs. Our Canadian blood system is the safest it has ever been.Readers of this column know we are great supporters of regular walking as an exercise. Using walking poles can be useful especially when walking over uneven terrain. Used properly, the poles help exercise the upper body muscles more and help us maintain our balance better.Many medicines originate in nature, so it’s no surprise when it’s found that the lavender plant reduces the number of falls in the elderly in nursing homes. In the study, they used patches infused with lavender comparing it to unscented patches. However, lavender oil could provide the same benefit.Whatever the source of new medication therapies, we make it our job to know about them.

Google killed the family debateLast week I talked
about how being part of a family is like at-tending World Peace University.
It’s a training ground for learning how to get along, de-spite the inevitable differences. Toler-ance, kindness and a great sense of hu-mour are all important weapons, but I’d have to say the one that has brought the most peace to our family gatherings is Google.
Before internet and handheld gadgets such as iPhones or iPads were so prevalent we could rage for hours about trivial stuff such as who acted in what movie or when some world event occurred or who invented what.
Some arguments we settled by flipping through well-thumbed encyclopedias while others were conceded to whoever presented the most convincing
argument. Or whoever was the
maddest.Just last week we
phoned our oldest son to wish him a happy birthday and talk got around to baseball and the dismal year the Blue Jays just had and when was it they last made the playoffs anyway.
In a fitting burst of nostalgia I remem-bered they had been in playoffs the week our son was born.
“I don’t think so,” Darcy said.
“Yes, yes they were!” I said, gather-
ing up steam. “I re-member because we were all in the TV room at the hospital watching the game and everyone was so excited.
Then I realized we were all in the TV room, even the nurses.
I remember going into a panic because no one was watching the babies.
Or baby as it were. “You were the only baby in the nursery that day. You had jaundice and had been there for almost a week...” I told our son.
I was just about to move on to how the psych ward was expe-riencing the opposite conditions; too many patients.
As a result it had overflowed into the edges of the maternity wing.
I remember how one wild looking gentle-man would roar with
rage whenever anyone walked past the open door to his room. I wasn’t without em-pathy, but as a new mother it had seemed a precarious coupling, combining the two wards like that.
I remember rush-ing down the corridor past the room of the roaring man and on to the nursery to find my newborn son sleeping peacefully.
I also remember a roar of “Yesssss!” coming not from that poor man’s room, but from the TV room be-yond.
This in turn trig-gered the memory of how when our second son was born the ma-ternity ward was so full they moved me into a room in the ge-riatric ward.
Whenever I walked back from the nurs-ery in the opposite wing with my son in my arms, an elderly
woman who hung out in the hallway was convinced I had stolen her baby.
She would start screaming, “Stop her! She has my baby!” And then she would begin to pursue me in her wheelchair.
It was heartbreak-ing. And a little terri-fying.
But before I could start my reminisc-ing to prove what an excellent memory I have, I was interrupt-ed by Google.
“Let’s see...the week I was born the New York Mets were playing The Boston Red Sox,” says our son, who was sitting in front of his com-puter when we phoned and had just finished doing a quick search.
“I told you!” says his father triumphant-ly.
“ B u t . . . b u t . . . w h y were we so excited if it wasn’t even a Cana-
dian team?” I ask.Turns out there are a
lot of Boston and New York fans in Canada and beyond. In fact, NBC’s broadcast of that particular Game 7 was the most watched series game to date.
The New York Mets eventual win was a heartbreaker given that in Game 6 Boston was leading the series three games to two and had taken a 5-3 lead in the top of the 10th.
In the bottom half two Mets were struck out and the Sox were one out away from leaping into a pile and dumping Gatorade on the coach’s head.
Alas, it was not to be. New York went on to tie the game and then scored the win-ning run after first baseman Bill Buck-ner let a ground hit by Mookie Wilson roll between his legs.
That infamous game
went on to become a movie starring Mi-chael Keaton called – what else? – Game 6.
Fans of Curb Your Enthusiasm will recall the episode where Bill Buckner appeared as a guest star.
In the show he fum-bles catching a signed Mookie Wilson base-ball, but is later re-deemed when he catches a baby tossed from a burning build-ing.
And when Game 6 was happening and history was being made, I can tell you exactly where I was...in the hospital nursery watching my firstborn sleep. And that’s the power of Google.
My memory...well that’s another thing.

Learning from a masterMy sister tells a won-
derful story about my nephew who, as a tod-dler, was busy, smart and very resourceful – a joy and, at times, a bit of a concern for his mom, I think.
He was (and is) an explorer of the world, a fearless adventurer and an enormously kind young fellow.
One early Moth-ers’ Day morning, very early and very morning, she woke to a gentle touch.
There was my neph-ew standing beside the bed, balancing a tray not very well and trying to get her to sit up.
“I brought you break-fast, Mummy” he said, his huge grin a likely representation of his pride.
He had watched care-fully his mom’s habit of doing nice things for people, including a few breakfasts-in-bed they had shared over the years, when he least ex-pected it.
So, here he was, standing so tall and ab-solutely vibrating in an-ticipation as he offered her the tray.
On it was a tea tow-el, a kid-type napkin (Kleenex), a bowl of cereal with a spoon and, sweetest of all, some dandelions in pretty good shape, considering their recent “smushing” into the glass.
Her heart bursting, my sister sat up and fluffed her pillows so she could fully appreci-ate this amazing “first”.
She closed her eyes and sighed “how fast they grow up” as she
took her first bite. CRUNCH!
Not sure that such a sharp sound should come from a bowl of soggy Cheerios, she stopped chewing and, with mouth still full, looked at the spoon just out of her mouth.
She was looking at the familiar, well-crust-ed spoon usually found on the back of the sink – the one used every day to dish up the cat’s wet food!
Looking into her son’s big, brown eyes and being ever so care-ful to avoid as much contact with the inside of her mouth as possi-ble, she swallowed hard but, to her absolute hor-ror, she could still feel several scratchy pieces
in her mouth. Without a beat, she
rose from the bed, si-lently gave her “server” a big mummy hug – she was unable to speak with so much saliva in her mouth! – and beat the land speed record as she fled to the bath-room. What a great mummy memory!

stigma of dementia a barrier for familiesWilliams Lake fami-
lies living with the im-pact of dementia are also coping with stig-ma, according to a new study.
Nearly three-quarters of people with demen-tia, and 64 per cent of family caregivers, be-lieve there are negative associations for those diagnosed with demen-tia, says Alzheimer’s Disease International.
Another alarming statistic revealed in the ADI report: 40 per cent of people with demen-
tia say they have been avoided or treated dif-ferently.
The report puts a spotlight on stigma as a real issue that impacts individuals and fami-lies who are living with Alzheimer’s disease,” says Tara Hildebrand, support and education coordinator for Wil-liams Lake and the Central Interior for the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C.
“We want residents to know that there is hope and there are ways for
overcoming stigma so that we can all better support families on the dementia journey and work with decision-makers to ensure that the rights of people liv-ing with dementia and their family caregivers are recognized.”
The society offers education programs and support groups for both the individual who has been diagnosed with a form of dementia and their caregivers.
A free local support and information group
serves as a forum for sharing practical tips and strategies for cop-ing with the disease. It helps create support and friendship with others whose lives are affected by dementia. For more information contact Hildebrand at 250-377-8200 (toll-free 1-800-886-6946) or [email protected]. For more information on Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, visit the Alzheimer So-ciety of B.C. website at www.alzheimerbc.org.
The Society leads a provincial effort to help transform dementia care in B.C. and gives the public tools to influence government and the health-care system to ensure that the delivery of services and commu-nity programs meet the needs of people affected by the disease and their families.

city works on slick roads
Road conditions in the Williams Lake area continued to be poor, Thursday. With Wednesday evening’s freezing rain all road, sidewalks, stairs, park-ing lots and pathways were in poor condition.
The city placed every available staff person within public works on salt trucks, sidewalk machines and persons are sanding sidewalks
by hand. This will continue un-
til conditions improve. The city is requesting
that all citizens stay off of slippery areas unless absolutely necessary.
The city thanks you for your cooperation and asks for your pa-tience.
To report road and sidewalk problem areas please contact the city @ 250-392-1765.

B.C. VIEWSTOM FLETCHER
B.C. Liberal delegates gathered for their conven-tion on the weekend at the Chateau Whistler, the same luxury hotel where Gor-don Campbell fired up the troops in 2008.
Back then the advertis-ing slogan was “Keep BC Strong.” Unveiled at Pre-mier Christy Clark’s pre-election pep rally: “Togeth-er. Building BC.”
This slight change hints at the big difference. Camp-bell led a front-running party to a third straight majority, while Clark is a struggling underdog plead-ing for unity to turn back an NDP tsunami.
Hence “Free Enterprise Friday,” a discussion open to non-party members.
Clark began with an up-beat speech urging party members to “reach out our arms, open the tent and be as big as we can possibly be.”
So did they? Dashing be-tween three concurrent ses-sions, I missed a fair amount of it, but there were some provocative suggestions to appeal to those inclined to support the resurgent B.C. Conservatives.
An accountant spoke to a packed room about the growing unfunded liability of public sector pensions, most of which are still of the “defined benefit” vari-ety.
Based on bond interest rates that have since sunk to all-time lows, these govern-ment-guaranteed pensions are now a free ride for those lucky enough to have them, funded by the taxes of pri-vate sector workers who in many cases have no pension plan at all.
There was talk of pass-ing a law that all new pub-lic sector hires be restricted to a “defined contribution” plan where the employee and employer contribute
equally and the pension is based on what those contri-butions yield.
This would provoke the mother of all confrontations with the B.C. Federation of Labour, but there was no evidence yet that this is going beyond the talking stage.
The resolutions contin-ued the theme of confront-ing the labour movement, ritual combat that seems to be an inescapable part of B.C. elections.
Delegates passed two motions, one calling for public sector unions to dis-close what they spend on salaries, political activities and lobbying, and another advocating a ban on unions spending compulsory dues on political campaigns.
This is a pet project of Nechako Lakes MLA John Rustad, whose constituency sponsored both motions. Rustad presented a private member’s bill last year to require detailed disclosure, but it was left to die on the order paper.
Like all the policy reso-lutions debated at the con-vention, these ideas are not binding on the government. Again, there is no actual change on the horizon.
Delegates rejected anoth-er motion that would have made membership in the B.C. Teachers’ Federation optional.
This would have been a
declaration of war on B.C.’s most militant union, just as Clark and Education Min-ister Don McRae embark on a long-shot bid to end the decades of confronta-tion that have defined that relationship since teachers were relegated to the indus-trial union model of labour relations.
There was a brief de-bate on a motion to scrap the carbon tax, sponsored by northern members who see it as unfairly punitive on those who endure cold weather and long highway drives for themselves and the goods they need to have trucked in.
This was rejected too, af-ter delegates were reminded
that the tax now takes in more than $1 billion annu-ally that is used to reduce business and personal in-come taxes. Scrapping it would amount to announc-ing across-the-board in-come tax hikes, contradict-ing 12 years of B.C. Liberal policy just before an elec-tion.
The good news for Clark is that the 2012 convention was a high-energy, well-attended event that contra-dicts the notion of a party in disarray. The bad news is, nothing has really changed.

Film club shows Innocent Voices TuesdayThe next film of the
Williams Lake Film Club will be screened Tuesday, Nov. 6 at the Gibraltar Room.
Innocent Voices is set in El Salvador in the 1980s.
“When the war started, dad left for the United States,” Chava, the 11-year-old narrator tells us at the beginning of the film. “Mom said now I was the man of the house.”
Eleven is a danger-ous age, because when he turns 12 he will be drafted into the govern-ment army.
In 2005 Innocent Voices received the Crystal Bear at the Ber-lin Film Festival which is given by a jury of seven young people ages 14 and up and is sponsored by the Kin-derhilfswerk, the so-ciety to help children around the world.
Great news, the equipment at the Gi-braltar Room has been fixed. We now have sur-round sound and a great picture again. I am re-ally looking forward to next Tuesday with the new equipment.
Old fashioned Ger-
man Advent Calendars will be available at the door again, $2 each. The film starts at 7 p.m., back doors open 6:30 p.m. Admission is $9 regular, $8 members, and $6 senior citizens (65+) and students, TRU and high school.
Job fair today
The BC Jobs Fair coming to Thompson Rivers University this Friday provides lots of information on train-
ing, jobs and how to get them. The event runs from noon to 7 p.m.
The purpose of the job fair is to connect job seekers with potential employers.
Exhibitors will in-clude select employers from a range of sec-tors, as well as post-secondary institutions, industry associations, training authorities, and the health authorities, plus the interactive BC Jobs Start Here mobile exhibit.
While job opportu-nities may be limited today, event organizers say that over the next 10 years, there will be more than one million job openings in British Columbia, including more than 350,000 new jobs, which will result in a shortage of skilled labour, particularly in the trades.
Craft fair
The Early Bird Christmas Craft Fair is coming up at the Elks Hall on Friday, Nov. 2 from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday, Nov. 3 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Tips from The CrD
smoke AlarmsSmoke alarms save lives. 65% of home fire deaths happen in homes with no smoke alarms at all or no smoke alarms that work. When there is a fire, smoke spreads fast and you need smoke alarms to give you time to get out.
Safety Tips• Install smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside
each separate sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. Interconnect all smoke alarms throughout the home. When one sounds, they all sound
• An ionization smoke alarm is generally more responsive to flaming fires and a photoelectric smoke alarm is generally more responsive to smoldering fires. For the best protection, both types of alarms or a combination alarm (photoelectric and ionization) should be installed in homes.
• Test alarms at least monthly by pushing the test button.
• Smoke rises; install smoke alarms following manufacturer’s instructions high on a wall or on a ceiling. Save manufacturer’s instructions for testing and maintenance.
• Replace batteries in all smoke alarms at least once a year. If an alarm “chirps,” warning the battery is low, replace battery right away.
• Replace all smoke alarms, including alarms that use ten year batteries and hard-wired alarms, when they are ten years old or sooner if they do not respond properly when tested.
• Be sure the smoke alarm has the label of a recognized testing laboratory.
• Alarms that are hard-wired (and include battery backup) must be installed by a qualified electrician.
• If cooking fumes or steam sets off nuisance alarms, replace the alarm with an alarm that has a “hush” button. A “hush” button will reduce the alarm’s sensitivity for a short period of time.
• An ionization alarm with a hush button or photoelectric alarm should be used if the alarm is within 20 feet of a cooking appliance.
• Smoke alarms that include a recordable voice announcement, in addition to the usual alarm sound, may be helpful in waking children through the use of a familiar voice.
• Smoke alarms are available for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. These alarms use strobe lights. Vibration equipment can be added to these alarms.
• Smoke alarms are an important part of a home fire escape plan.

Beyond the beetle
Beyond The Beetle – A Mid Term Timber Supply Action Plan, which was recently re-leased following the extensive Timber Sup-ply meetings held by the provincial govern-ment earlier this year was received by the board. The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Op-erations is implement-ing the action plan in its ongoing response to the mountain pine bee-tle infestation. The key elements of the Action Plan include reforesta-tion, forest inventory, fuel management and silviculture. The full report can be viewed online at for.gov.bc.ca/hfp/mountain_pine_beetle/index.htm.
CRD’s South
Cariboo Regional Airport
The CRD Board of Directors endorsed a recommendation for the South Cariboo Re-gional Airport Manage-ment and Operations Renewal Agreement. Mr. Nick Christian-son of Nick’s Rag and Tube will continue to look after the manage-ment and operations of the facility. Further information about the CRD airport services is available online at cari-boord.bc.ca/Services/Airports.aspx
Budget
2013
On Thursday, Octo-ber 25, the CRD Board of Directors started the process of reviewing
proposed 2013 budgets and business plans. As part of this process, di-rectors ensure budgets and business plans fall in line with Board stra-tegic priorities.
The next Finance Budget meeting will be taking place on Thurs-day, Nov. 15.
The proposed bud-get will be presented to residents through three sub-regional consultation meetings taking place in 100 Mile House, Quesnel and Williams Lake in January and February, 2013. The traditional Town Hall Meetings for 2013 will be held at the beginning of the budgeting process in each of the electoral areas and municipali-ties in September and October next year. Fur-ther information about the dates, times and lo-cations of these meet-ing will be announced soon.
Reduction of local
services byGreyhound
The Regional Dis-trict Board will be writing a letter to Grey-hound Bus Lines to ex-press concern about the proposed service level reductions to commu-nities throughout the Cariboo Chilcotin and northern B.C.
Invasive plants pilot project
The CRD Board of Directors approved in principle a new 50/50 cost share Landowner Assistance program to supplement existing invasive plant manage-ment programs. This
program will be in ad-dition to the traditional herbicide dispensing and equipment loan programs.
Results of the pilot program will be re-corded yearly as a basis upon which to measure success of the program and its suitability for complete adoption within the Landowner Assistance Program.
Health authority
updates
Margaret Sadlon, Health Service Admin-istrator for Northern Health (NH) appeared before the Cariboo Chilcotin Region-al Hospital District (CCRHD) Board to discuss the GR Baker Memorial Hospital Master Plan. The pre-sentation included an overview of planning criteria, goals, the draft Master Plan and the next steps. Further in-formation about NH is available online at northernhealth.ca
Earlier in the meet-ing CCRHD Chair John Massier provided an update from a re-cent meeting between the CCRHD and Inte-rior Health (IH). On October 23 and 24, the CCRHD met with IH in Kelowna to discuss a number of items in-cluding prioritization of the Cariboo Memo-rial Hospital Master Plan and the need for the opening of more beds at Fischer Place Lodge in 100 Mile House.
Anahim Lake
Airport Terminal Building design selected
The preferred pro-posal for construction of the new Anahim Lake Airport Terminal Building was a cross laminated timber de-sign submitted by Zirn-helt Timber Frames Ltd. The proposal was selected based on the
use of structural wood which is consistent with the CRD’s Wood First policy and a dem-onstration of energy ef-ficiency options. Once design details are com-pleted, construction will begin in the spring of 2013.

Purpose of Prayer“Bubba, does prayer really
work?” Well the answer to that question really depends on what you intend to see accomplished when you pray. If we come to God believing that he is a benevolent cosmic slot machine and that prayer is the lever that gets the wheels spinning to hopefully land on the answer to our desires, then NO, prayer does not work. The purpose of prayer is not to try and convince God to align with our view of the world; it is to allow us to align with God’s intent in the world. Alvin VanderGrien says it this way, “Praying in faith is not an inner conviction that God will act according to our desires if only we believe hard enough. It involves believing that God will always respond to our prayers in accord with his nature, his purposes, and his promises.” Prayer is not an exercise to
change God; prayer is more to change us. Prayer is the practice of the presence of God. It is the place where our pride is abandoned, our hope is lifted, and supplication is made. Prayer is the place of admitting our need, of
adopting humility, and claiming dependence upon God. Prayer is the needful practice of the Christian. Prayer is the exercise of faith and hope. Prayer is the privilege of touching the heart of the Father through Jesus.Often, we ignore prayer and seek
to accomplish in the strength of our own wills those things that we desire to have or happen. Prayer becomes a last minute Hail Mary pass in order to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. The credo is often heard, “When everything else has failed...pray.” At this point
is it really meaningful prayer, or a magic incantation that we hope changes the world to become formed to our will? Make no mistake; this is witchcraft, not prayer. For those of us who are too often guilty of this, we need to bow our knees, confess our sin, receive God’s forgiveness, and beg that the will of the Lord be done above our own. God is sovereign and loving and He knows what is best for us and others, even if it doesn’t always seem to make the most sense.Prayer changes the one praying
because in prayer, you are in the presence of God as you lay before Him your complete self in confession and dependence. There is nothing to hide when in quiet supplication we are reaching into the deepest part of ourselves and admitting our needs and failures. In so doing, our hearts are quieted and pride is stripped and we enjoy the presence of God. The Apostle James states, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.”Prayer is the practice of the
presence of God.

Clergy United calls for protection of prison Chaplains’ contractSupporting the rights
and ministries of Cana-da’s faithworkers provid-ing chaplaincy services to inmates of federal prisons, Clergy United is calling upon Federal Pub-lic Safety Minister Vic Toews to reverse his de-cision to cancel the con-tracts of part-time chap-lains.
“As clergy serving the United Church of Cana-da, we see firsthand how people’s troubled lives can be turned around when they connect with
trained, experienced chaplains. We want every person in prison to have opportunity to embark on a transformative path through the discovery or renewal of their faith, whether it is Christian, Jewish, Muslim or an-other belief system,” says Rev. Jim Evans, a min-ister of St. Thomas, On-tario congregations and a volunteer organizer of a union for clergy, forming within the CAW.
“In calling upon Mr. Toews to protect the vi-
tal positions of part-time chaplains of various faiths, we are also asking him to uphold the free-dom of religion granted to all Canadians, including those in prison,” Rev. Ev-ans says. “Through my own ministry, I promote understanding and accep-tance of different faith tra-ditions. A Muslim sister and I created a worship service that honours the compatible wisdom of Je-sus Christ and the Prophet Muhammad; this service is shared with Christian
congregations across Canada. Yet I would nev-er be able to teach a Mus-lim inmate about his or her own faith. It wouldn’t be authentic, respectful or in accordance with that person’s right of religious freedom.”
Clergy United adds its collective voice to that of the Right Rev. Gary Paterson, Moderator of the United Church of Canada. In a public let-ter to Mr. Toews on Oct. 15, the Rt. Rev. Paterson wrote: “Given the mix of
faiths in the prison popu-lation, there will always be a need for part-time chaplaincies.
True, there is always the question of a wise use of financial resources, but money invested in chap-laincy services is money well-spent. People need spiritual care, and in the case of people whose troubled lives and rela-tionships have been a fac-tor in the commission of serious crimes, it can help put them on the path to a better future.”

Builders show opensThe second biennial
exhibition showcasing new Canadian art ac-quired by the National Gallery of Canada (NGC) over the past two years opens Friday Nov. 2 in Ottawa.
Builders: Canadian Biennial 2012 features over 100 artworks ac-quired by the gallery’s departments of Contem-porary Art, Indigenous Art, and Photographs, and selected from some 300 pieces of contem-porary art purchased by or donated to the NGC since 2010.
A range of artistic media is on view, from paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints, to photography, video and multimedia installations created by 45 emergent, mid-career, and long-established Canadian artists. Supported by the RBC Foundation, Build-ers: Canadian Biennial 2012 is on view until Jan. 20, 2013.
“In placing emergent practices alongside long-established Canadian artists who have been in-strumental in “building” a context for Canadian art today, Builders offers the opportunity to ap-preciate the range of aes-thetic accomplishment in this country,” said NGC director Marc Mayer.
“It also reflects how this national museum builds upon its perma-nent collection through an informed understand-ing of the dynamic and thought-provoking realm of Canadian contempo-rary art at the most ambi-tious levels, and across generations.”
According to orga-nizing curator Jonathan Shaughnessy, associ-ate curator of Contem-porary Art at the NGC, “The multigenerational approach highlighted in Builders questions the often-held bias that in-novation and creative experimentation are pri-marily the purview of new and emerging talent. Rather, the exhibition asserts a commitment to recognizing and dis-covering contemporary artists across generations whose work exemplifies
and builds upon deter-mined and original cre-ative visions.”
To this end, Builders highlights a range of new productions by influen-tial, some now iconic figures of Canadian art such as Michael Snow, Lynne Cohen, Chris Cran, Faye Heavyshield, Evan Penny, Joanne Tod, and Leslie Reid. Within this established basis the exhibition meanders through an engaging path featuring works by many newcomers to the collec-tion including Ottawa-based painter Melanie Authier; Winnipeg-born, Los Angeles-based painter and sculptor Jon Pylypchuk; the multidis-ciplinary Toronto artist Sandy Plotnikoff; as well as a unique sound instal-lation by Vancouver and Berlin-based artist Mark Soo.

VICTORIA - Satur-day night’s earthquake near Haida Gwaii serves as a reminder to all of us just how important it is to be prepared for emergen-cies. In the days since this event, a number of questions and con-cerns have come for-ward around how and when communities re-ceived tsunami infor-mation from the B.C. government.
We have a robust and multi-faceted emergency manage-ment system in British Columbia, one that is recognized globally for its efficiency and effectiveness.
While much of the public and media fo-cus has been on social media, it’s critical to remember that it is just one part of what is a comprehensive noti-fication system.
I know that last weekend, in response to the earthquake, the system worked well at the local-authority level and our opera-tional team at Emer-gency Management BC (EMBC) respond-ed quickly and worked diligently to keep the public informed.
This is not to sug-gest there aren’t as-pects of the response that can’t be done bet-ter.
On Saturday, as is the case when any earthquake happens
and there is the po-tential a tsunami may impact British Colum-bia’s coast, the first official notification came within minutes from the West Coast and Alaska Tsu-nami Warning Cen-tre (WCATWC) in Palmer, Alaska. The WCATWC sent this notification to EMBC as well as to the many local governments, agencies, media and individuals who are registered with the WCATWC notifica-tion system. As is ap-propriate, many local authorities began act-ing as soon as they received this initial notification.
As the next step to further increase awareness of this no-tification, EMBC staff then began using a variety of tools to re-lay this critical emer-gency information to local governments, media and key stake-holders.
In fact, within 12 minutes the Emer-gency Coordination Centre (ECC) began directly calling pro-vincial emergency management staff and local authorities in the impacted regions.
Local authorities are the first respond-ers in B.C.’s commu-nities and are required by legislation to have emergency plans in place that include pro-cedures for relaying critical emergency in-formation to residents
and visitors. The initial tsunami
notification from the ECC also went to se-nior levels of govern-ment, representatives from the military and Public Safety Canada, RCMP, utilities and BC Ambulance.
Last weekend, we saw the leadership of local authorities up and down the Coast as they activated their emergency action plans.
One of the other ma-jors tools government uses to contact British Columbians directly is the Provincial Emer-gency Notification System (PENS). This was added in 2006 as part of our earthquake and tsunami response plan and uses technol-ogy to systematically send tsunami notifica-tions via phone, fax and email to thou-sands of first respond-ers, local governments and the media.
Our government will do everything we can to notify as many people as possible. Our first priority is to contact first respond-ers and those who will lead the local emer-gency response, and then to let them take over and decide how best to contact the citizens of their com-munities.
The staff behind our @EmergencyInfoBC Twitter feed will al-ways beworking to find that right balance between accuracy and timeliness in how we post social media up-dates, but at the end of the day, the fact re-mains - if Mother Na-ture has let you know there is a problem, don’t wait for your cellphone to ring, or to get a text or Twitter message.
Move into emergen-cy mode and activate your plan. Especially if we’re facing a large earthquake or other disaster, your Internet or cellphone access may be limited and it will be your initial re-sponse that saves your life.
The most impor-tant thing for people in coastal areas of B.C. to understand is that when the ground shakes - especially if it goes on longer than a minute - that’s the first notification that a tsunami could impact the area.
Anyone in coastal locations who feels strong shaking from an earthquake should assume that a tsunami may have been gener-ated and should imme-diately move to high ground as soon as the shaking stops.
We must never for-get that emergency preparedness begins with each of us as in-dividuals. All British Columbians should have emergency plans and kits in place for themselves and their families. You can find out how to create your own emergency kit at: http://goo.gl/fNFa3
And all British Co-lumbians should take the time to familiarize themselves with their community’s emer-gency plan.
As with any large emergency response, I have asked EMBC to conduct a review of how our response and communications sys-tems worked.
It’s onlyresponsible that we continue to look at not only what went right, but more importantly, where we can improve and how we can better work with our emergency response partners in local communities to notify and protect our citizens.
I can reassure Brit-ish Columbians that our government is committed to provid-ing a world-class pub-lic safety response.

small businesses going greenSmall businesses
throughout B.C. are ‘staying out of the red’ by going green, said Environment Minister Terry Lake to wrap up October as small busi-ness month.
For example, three B.C. companies are turning their green ideas into greenbacks:
Van Houtte Coffee Services, B.C. is lead-ing by example and in-fluencing others. Start-
ing in 2009, Van Houtte reduced their energy use, cut waste and con-verted a large part of their fleet to dual fuel trucks, hybrid cars and an experimental EV.
Through efficiency programs, they have saved $100,000 and reduced emissions by over 202 tonnes annu-ally. The lessons they have learned are shared with other business partners to help them
find ways to use better, greener business strate-gies.
Glacier Creek Pacific Contracting is a Whis-tler-based construction company that builds energy efficient resi-dences and buildings.
Construction waste wasn’t just undermin-ing their bottom line, it was also contradicting their corporate philoso-phy of being good en-vironmental stewards.
Through strategic ef-forts that began in 2009, Glacier Creek reduced construction waste shipments to landfills by 35 per cent, which also cut CO2e emis-sions by 226 tonnes. Less waste in landfills saved them $64,500 in hauling fees.
Pemberton Valley Lodge takes its com-mitment to green lead-ership very seriously with an award-winning
approach that is based on a savvy business strategy.
From recycling the soap in their hotel rooms, to cutting waste by 75 per cent, Pember-ton Valley Lodge has made many changes with big results.
One of these results is becoming one of only 56 hotels in North America to receive the coveted Five Green Key rating.

Speaking to a group of people gathered at a meeting hosted by the Williams Lake and Dis-trict Chamber of Com-merce, Yamamoto said a small business is de-fined as having 50 em-ployees or less, but the overwhelming majority have five employees or less.
“The small business community in B.C. ac-counts for more than one million jobs and about a third of B.C.’s Growth Domestic Product.
For me more impor-tantly, when the global economic crisis hit in
the latter part of 2008, small businesses only reduced the level of their employees by half a per cent.”
Big business reduced its employees by eight per cent, Yamamoto added.
Williams Lake Busi-ness Improvement As-sociation president Shei-la Mortensen confirmed there are 300 plus mem-bers in the association.
Over the 40 years Mortensen’s been in business with her hus-band at Lakecity Glass Ltd., they’ve trained many glazers.
“We always believe in certification and making sure they totally under-stand their job for their own personal safety, etc. The biggest problem is holding on to them once they’re certified,” Mortensen said, adding to keep them working 24/7 through the win-
ter, and to hold on to a journeyman glazer, “just about drains the piggy bank.”
And if a company like hers is forced to lay someone off over the winter, there’s a good chance that employee will leave to find work in another city.
Their employees are also sent away for six weeks of training at British Columbia In-stitute of Technology (BCIT) and Mortensen has seen some occasions where employees will visit the school to offer trainees jobs.
In a place like Wil-liams Lake, an em-ployee can also be well-rounded because they aren’t limited in their experiences.
Take for example the glass shop.
In Williams Lake, Mortensen’s employees are not only doing store
front, or just doing au-tomotive, or just doing cutting.
If you hired a jour-neyman out of a bigger city like Vancouver that person might only be trained in one type of glass fitting, she sug-gested.
The wages that small businesses can offer make it difficult for them to compete with bigger companies, how-ever, Mortensen said small business owners can groom employees to eventually move further up.
Getting new, and in-experienced workers in the door initially; how-ever, is often the chal-lenge.
Yamamoto said in smaller towns and rural areas small business is the heart and soul of the community and those business owners will do anything to keep their
employees working.“It’s that attitude and
spirit that makes small business so important,” Yamamoto said.
As an association, the BIA has begun to focus on getting the business community to act as a unified body.
“In 2013 I’d like to say to the business com-munity, how are we go-ing to promote our busi-nesses in the downtown core, as far as getting the people through the door. That’s the key.
And making your product enticing enough that customers will buy them,” Mortensen said, adding the question is always what is missing and why are people go-ing to Kamloops to buy things?
“We want to keep people in our town and we want to give that service quality that will keep them here.”

bigger human genome
rare variantsThanks to power-
ful computational tools developed at Simon Fraser University, more than 100 scientists from around the world have genetically mapped the largest and most varied number of human ge-nomes to date.
The scientists, in-cluding SFU doctoral students Iman Hajira-souliha and Fereydoun Hormozdiari (recently graduated), sequenced and analyzed a pool of 1092 human genomes. Hormozdiari is now pursuing postdoctoral studies at the University of Washington.
The scientists se-quenced the genomes of individuals from 14 different populations (five from Europe; three from Africa; three from East Asia; three from the Americas). The re-searchers used compu-tational tools developed in Cenk Sahinalp’s lab to discover many vari-ants in those genomes. Sahinalp, who is Ha-jirasouliha’s and Hor-mozdiari’s doctoral supervisor, is a profes-sor in SFU’s School of Computing Science.
In the largest previ-ous study, which also involved Hajirasouliha and Hormozdiari in Sa-hinalp’s lab, scientists
sequenced the genomes of 185 people selected from an original pool of 1,000 human genomes.
Delving into a larger and more varied pool of genetic information has enabled the scientists to discover more numer-ous and rarer genetic variations than previ-ously known.
Their findings have just been published in the Nature journal ar-ticle An integrated map of genetic variation from 1,092 human ge-nomes now online.
“Rare genetic vari-ants are indeed very important because on the evolutionary scale, they occurred most re-cently,” explains Ha-jirasouliha.
“Their patterns of sharing among different individuals can reveal aspects of population history.
“They are also very important in disease as-sociation studies, which aim often today to asso-ciate rare variants with diseases of genomic origin, such as autism and cancer.”
The researchers have yet to figure out what their latest genetic cache means in terms of population health and diseases.
That could take years.

FOI loop hole a concernUniversities and
other public bodies can still create independent companies whose re-cords are beyond the reach of province’s Freedom of Informa-tion law, more than a year after the former Minister of Open Gov-ernment promised to deal with the problem, says Vincent Gogoleck of the B.C. Freedom of Information and Pri-vacy Association.
“This is unaccept-able,” Gogolek says. “The BC government clearly has no inten-tion of preventing this abuse of our informa-tion rights.”
Last October, he says Information and Priva-cy commissioner Eliza-beth Denham wrote a letter to then-minister Margaret MacDiar-mid to highlight a BC Supreme Court ruling which found that uni-versity subsidiary cor-porations are in fact not subject to the demands of the Freedom of In-formation and Protec-tion of Privacy Act. In her estimation, it was a relatively quick fix, Go-goleck says.
Following that letter, former Minister Mac-Diarmid expressed a de-sire to work with Den-ham to fix the problem,
though for her it seemed a significantly more complicated matter. In response to a question from NDP critic Doug Routley on October 20, 2011, she said
“We certainly have the intention of work-ing with her [Denham] and looking to address it, but it would require consultation and would require a number of sections of the act to be different…The initial conversation is already starting with the com-missioner, and we’re going to work in this area.”
Since that statement, nothing has been done,
and the government has also cancelled the fall sitting of the Legisla-ture. He says this is not the first time the ques-tion of secrecy within education bodies’ sub-sidiary companies has been given a free pass by the BC government.
“For whatever rea-son, this government is allergic to making these subsidiary com-panies transparent,” Gogolek said. “Appar-ently they don’t agree with the Commissioner that whatever form it takes, if a body is carry-ing on public business it should be subject to FOI.”

Three steps to help prevent diabetes
Chances are you know someone with Type 2 diabetes. That someone may even be you. Currently more than three million Ca-nadians have Type 2 diabetes. That number is expected to grow to just under four million by 2018. Genetics and lifestyle play a large role in the development of this serious health condition. Diabetes increases your risk of heart disease, kidney failure, blindness, nerve damage, and even erec-tile dysfunction.
Making a few life-style changes can dra-matically lower the chances of developing Type 2 diabetes. Take these three important steps to reduce your risk.
Get moving. Aim for 30 minutes of activ-ity a day. Getting active
doesn’t have to mean starting an exercise class or joining a gym. Choose activities that you enjoy or ones that you can do as a fam-ily - rake leaves, walk your kids to school, go for a bike ride after sup-per, or dance the night away!
Maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight around the belly area is a risk factor for dia-betes. Even a mod-est amount of weight loss can reduce your risk. Speak with your health care professional about a healthy weight loss goal and ways to achieve it.
Eat well. Have foods from at least three of the four food groups at each meal. Fill half your plate at supper with vegetables, a quarter with a protein (from the meat and alternatives
group) and the other quarter with a starch (from the grain products group). Drink low-fat milk and choose low-fat yogurt or cheese. Keep your portions reason-able and go easy on high-fat spreads, dips, and sauces. Aim for two servings of fish each week and choose low fat meats like extra lean beef, turkey, and skin-less chicken.
Try cooking with beans, lentils, and tofu. These meat alterna-tives are inexpensive and have many health benefits. Lastly, cut out sugary drinks like soda. Sugary drinks provide extra calories and do not fill you up. For more great tips check out Eating Well with Canada’s Food Guide at http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/food-guide-aliment/index-
eng.php. It is a great resource and it’s available online or at your local health unit.
Eating healthy does require some basic cooking skills. If you would like to learn how to cook healthy, budget-friendly meals consider participating in a Food Skills for Families program. Food Skills for Families is a free hands-on program that makes healthy eating, shopping, and cooking easy, quick, and fun. To find out if there is a program near you, check with your local friendship centre, com-munity centre, or other organizations that offer programs for parents or seniors.

bird tree tells new tale of evolution
Using the world’s first family tree link-ing every known bird species, scientists, in-cluding two at Simon Fraser University, have discovered that birds appear to be accelerat-ing their rate of evolu-tion. The finding is con-trary to the scientists’ expectations.
They spent five years creating their tree, using millions of years worth of fossil data stretch-ing back to the Age of the Dinosaurs, DNA data and supercomput-ers. They then mapped where on Earth and when in history birds’ diversification took place.
A new paper in the journal Nature contains
the scientists’ profile of how 9,993 bird species currently alive glob-ally made it to where they are today. Based on previous studies, the researchers expected to see bird speciation slowing down through time.
But SFU biolo-gist Arne Mooers, Jeff Joy, a postdoctoral fel-low in his lab, and re-searchers at Yale Uni-versity, University of Sheffield and Univer-sity of Tasmania have discovered birds’ spe-ciation rate is increas-ing, not declining.
“Perhaps birds are special,” theorizes Mooers. “Maybe they’re so good at get-ting around they can
escape local competi-tion from relatives and start anew elsewhere, producing bursts of new species at different times and in different parts of the globe.”
The authors have also discovered that birds’ speciation rate doesn’t drop off the further they are from the equator. Since three quarters of all birds are found near the equator, it was ex-pected that speciation there would be more common.
“We know the tropi-cal biome has been shrinking during the last 15 million years,” says Joy. “Perhaps, just as bushtits bunch together closely at night, bird species have clustered
together in the tropics as their habitat shrunk.”
“We need to think a lot more about how Earth’s changing cli-mate has led to current distributions,” says Mooers. “It’s a lovely conundrum.”
Unfortunately, birds’ rosy speciation history doesn’t nullify the fact that they can’t outfly their growing human-induced rate of extinc-tion.
Researchers estimate that birds have recently been proliferating at a rate of about one new bird species every 700 years. Meanwhile, they estimate birds’ recent human-caused extinc-tion rate to be about 300 times higher.

Premier attends P.G. cancer centre openingDELYNDA PILONPrince GeorgeFree Press
Most people’s lives have been touched by cancer in some way, and Premier Christy Clark is no exception. Her mother won the battle against skin can-cer and breast cancer, ultimately losing her life to brain cancer.
Clark said she under-stood how important it is to be near your sup-port group and for your loved ones to be able to be close to you when you are struggling with the disease.
Every morning dur-ing her mother’s battle with brain cancer she would drive to the Roy-al Columbian Hospital, help her mother shower and eat, then put her to bed. After work she would pick up her son and they would go see her mother. Clark would feed her dinner and help her brush her teeth.
Her mother may not have survived her fi-nal battle with cancer, but Clark said she did get to spend those fi-nal days with her in the best possible way.
“It was her final gift,” she said. “Now families in Prince George will
also have that gift.”With tears in her
eyes, Clark shared her story during the grand opening of the B.C. Cancer Agency Centre for the North on Mon-day. In a room filled with proponents who worked hard to make the centre a reality, lo-cal and provincial dig-nitaries as well as many of the 82 professionals who will staff the cen-tre, she talked about the importance of a com-munity coming togeth-er with a vision, then bringing it to life.
“This is something you have needed in this community for a long time,” she said.
She added the prov-ince has the best cancer survival rate anywhere in North America, thanks in great part to the B.C. Cancer Agen-cy and the specialists who work there.
Prince George now has the most recently built clinic, one of six throughout the prov-ince, filled with state-of-the-art equipment.
“But the real dif-ference is the people who work in the build-ing,” she said. “It is these people and their passion for wanting to save lives ... that is what makes the differ-
ence.”Prince George Health
Authority board chair Wynne Powell said that for the first time in the north, the newly con-structed centre will al-low patients to undergo radiation therapy.
He added the cen-tre is a key part of the northern cancer control strategy.
In addition to being on time and below bud-get, the centre, he said, will enhance service across the cancer care continuum through the north.
Dr. Michelle Sutter broached the subject of a local cancer centre when she noticed there was an abnormal num-ber of mastectomies being performed in the North.
“Women were un-willing to leave their support systems,” she said.
The initial meeting with local MLAs Pat Bell and Shirley Bond led to several more, until Dr. Charles Jago, someone who has gar-nered a great deal of respect among a range of people, was put in charge of a steering committee, advocating for the project.
A first report by the committee projected
the earliest such a clin-ic could become a real-ity was 2015.
Bond said they knew that just wasn’t fast enough.
“Northern B.C. has been asking for equity in health care for a long time,” Bond said.
Over the time it has taken to make the cen-tre a reality, she said she was asked about it many times.
“It’s not a matter of if,” she said she told people. “It’s a matter of when. And when is today.”
“Everyone south of Williams Lake told us it couldn’t be done,” Bell said.
“When people tell northern British Co-lumbians it can’t be done, they just roll up their sleeves. Today proves we can get it
done in northern B.C.,” Bond said.
Construction for the centre began in July of 2010, with a capi-tal cost of $91.5 mil-lion. The first patients were expected to walk through the doors on Nov. 1.
Premier Christy Clark toured the radiation unit at the B.C. Cancer Agency Centre for the North during its grand opening Monday. Patients began treatment at the centre Nov. 1.

Nobody starts a business from home with the intent of failing. I know that. Yet 9 out of 10 do not continue, and of those that do, very few are truly successful. Like so many, I gave up.
But what would you do if you heard of a business model like this? Consider.
This business has no store location, no inventory, no shipping, no office overhead, no staff, no territory, no selling, creates cash flow quickly, and with excellent return on the dollar. It also solves the Home Entrepreneur’s biggest problem. What is that? Finding customers!
The company makes customers available to Independent Business owners. The company does the advertising and we share that cost - so it’s a 100% advertising expense. As long as they shop, you get a commission. And by the way, 90% of the income to the company is from customers. The company takes orders, ships to customers and delivers catalouges and magazines to our customers at no cost to us. We have access to a professional Business Services Team for any support needed.
I am enjoying business success because of being able to partner with the company in the acquisition of customers and with others of like mind, and similar bigger-than-average goals. Now you know what I did. What will you do? Call me.
