Centennial Pool is leaking, forc-ing the city to close the outdoorpool less than two weeks after itsseason opening.
To make matters worse, as of Tuesday morning, the city hadn’tbeen able to pinpoint exactlywhere the problem is.
“It’s leaking a consider-able amount of water and it’sextremely difficult to determinewhere it’s coming from,” saidRoss Milnthorp, the city’s man-ager of parks, recreation andculture on Monday afternoon.“We’re unable to pinpoint thesource of the leak.”
Repair crews have been using an infrared heat sensor from thefire department and camera thatgoes inside the pipes to find theproblem.
Milnthorp said constructioncrews have been able to elimi-nate the tank side of the pool andhave isolated the problem to thesupply side. However, there are16 different places where the sup-ply system feeds water back tothe pool’s tank – and they’re allunderground.
“We can’t possibly dig up all 16,” Milnthorp said. “We’re doingthe best we can, but it’s leaking alot of water – more than we cansustain. We don’t anticipate fix-ing the problem will be difficult

He said it’s possible the 6.4 earthquake felt in Campbell River last Sept. 9 caused some damage underground, which would have gone unnoticed until the sys-tem was started up.
C e n t e n n i a l Po o l opened for the summer on June 1.
The Campbell River
Salmon Kings swim club got back in the water the following Monday and were look-ing forward to a new season.
But Milnthorp said it was quickly apparent there was a problem with the pool and the decision was made last Friday to shut it down.
That’s affecting the Salmon Kings, who may have to look for a new home.
“The problem with the pool is unfortu-nate,” said Janice Scriba, president of the Campbell River Salmon Kings. “We have had to cancel sev-eral days of swim ses-sions so far.”
Liz Wilson, publicity manager of the Salmon Kings, said on Tuesday the club had to practice at the indoor Strath-cona Gardens pool.
“We had a meet in
Duncan last weekend and we are in Victoria at the commonwealth pool this weekend, so it is very important that the Salmon Kings get their training time,” Wilson said.
Her son, who attends Willow Point elemen-tary, was supposed to go on a field trip to Centennial Pool Mon-day but the trip had to be cancelled at the last minute.
“Two classes from Ecole Willow Point were just walking to catch the city bus to make it to the outdoor pool for their field trip when the teach-ers received a call that the pool was closed,” Wilson said. “The kids were all very disap-pointed.”
Milnthorp said he can’t speculate as to when the pool will re-open.

The city will share an exhibit of Campbell River’s past at this year’s third annual Heritage Day.
Council agreed to spend $500, from
the Community Partnership Fund, on large panels depicting the history of the city’s community builders and freemen. The panels can be
re-used at future events or at city hall. Heritage Day takes place Sat., Aug. 18 at Spirit Square from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. and celebrates the
community’s past with performances from River City Players, museum puppets, vintage tractors, an historical fashion show and more.
PAUL RUDANCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
Their pictures and “pet” names flash up on the cell phones when they call each other.
He’s “Baby Boy” and she’s “Baby Girl.”
He’s 35 years old and she’s just 14.
On Monday, in Camp-bell River provincial court, Crown prosecu-tor John Boccabella characterized Russell Modeste’s alleged rela-tionship with the teen-aged girl as “extreme and repulsive.”
Modeste, who’s being
held in custody in Vic-toria, is charged with sexual assault, sexual interference with a person under 16, and breach of a court order.
Even though he’s been charged, RCMP continue to investi-gate, said Boccabella, because the girl, who cannot be named, became pregnant and miscarried this past winter.
“There’s widespread belief Mr. Modeste is responsible (for the pregnancy),” he told Judge Brian Klaver during the bail hear-
ing. The two apparently met on the Facebook social media website. She was 13 years old at the time and he wrote that he was 20.
The girl, in state-ments provided to police, denied having a sexual relationship with Modeste. Others are unsure and say the two slept in the same room together; they’ve also been seen holding hands, kissing, and witnesses allege he’s repeated groped her buttocks.
Authorities f irst became aware of the two on Jan. 20, when
police were called to assist the Ministry of Children and Fami-lies in implementing a safety plan for the girl.
At the same time, the girl’s caregiver wanted Modeste removed from the home. He was arrested outside the residence as he was seen walking hand-in-hand with the girl.
Modeste was taken to the Evergreen Shelter after he had signed an agreement to have no contact with the girl. However, it is alleged the two were in fre-quent contact with each other, calling and
texting, after Modeste’s arrest.
One of the girl’s instructors also became concerned when the youth was seen repeat-edly sending text mes-sages while at school. The girl allegedly told the woman she was sending messages to “her boyfriend.”
The woman also informed authorities the girl has some learn-ing difficulties.
Boccabella said Mod-este’s original bail
order should be can-celled and he should be held in custody until trial.
Defence lawyer James Hormoth asked the judge to release Mod-este on bail with strict conditions. Modeste is a member of the Cow-ichan First Nation and he could move back to Duncan to reside with family.
Hormoth also said Modeste would abide by a no-go to Campbell River order other than
to attend court, and he would also not use any electronic communica-tion devices.
“The problem, as I see it, is it’s almost impossible to prevent contact through social media,” said Judge Klaver, as he cancelled Modeste’s bail. “There are no conditions I could place him on that would assure no contact.”
Modeste is due back in court, by video, on June 18.

BC Hydro encourages the public to learn more about our capital projects and the forecasted summer hydroelectric operations. Your continued involvement in these capital projects is important. Please join us at the open house and interact with BC Hydro staff.
When: June 20, 2012 Time: 2:00 pm to 6:30 pm Where: Campbell River Maritime Heritage Centre, 621 N Island Highway
JOHN HART GENERATING STATION REPLACEMENT PROJECT BC Hydro will provide the latest information on the BC Parks Boundary Adjustment, Environmental Assessment, and British Columbia Utilities Commission regulatory processes. We will also provide a project procurement process update.
A key part of the regulatory approval processes will be the ongoing consultation with First Nations, and engagement of government agencies and stakeholders.
BC Hydro’s goal is to complete the regulatory processes by spring 2013 and award the construction contract in summer 2013. Project construction would then begin in summer 2013 should the project be approved.
HEBER RIVER DIVERSION DECOMMISSIONING PROJECTThis facility is near Gold River and diverted water from the Heber River into the Upper Campbell Reservoir. This summer BC Hydro plans to remove the dam structure, a 3.6 km woodstave pipeline, and the pipeline outlet structure. The entire diversion facility footprint will then be remediated and restored to become part of the surrounding natural environment. The facility has been out of service since November 2006.
BC Hydro is removing the Heber River Diversion due to its poor condition and as a result of the Campbell River Water Use Plan (WUP). The WUP Consultative Committee, made up of First Nations, government agencies, stakeholders and BC Hydro, came to a consensus agreement to remove the facility.
HYDROELECTRIC OPERATIONSBC Hydro will provide an overview on how we consider water use interests across the system, including how we are managing the high snow pack and snow melt. Forecasted Campbell River flows and reservoir levels will be provided.

Carol Westrum was thrilled to retire in Campbell River and thought she had found the perfect home – a waterfront view and close to the Sea Walk.
But now she’s think-ing otherwise.
With the warmer weather, people have been lured down to the shore along the Sea Walk to enjoy beach fires. The only prob-lem, said Westrum, is that at the end of the evening people aren’t putting their fires out and leaving them to smoulder unattended.
Westrum, who lives in an apartment by the highway, said she and her neighbours breathe in the smoke.
“Acrid smoke from the fires and its linger-ing effects drift towards and into our homes making it impossible to leave one’s windows or doors open,” Westrum wrote in a letter to city council.
She’s concer ned about the impact the smoke is having on her health.
“Its effects cause extreme health diffi-culties, especially for those with lung and breathing conditions,” Westrum said.
Fire Chief Dean Spry confirmed the fire hall has received several calls already this year to attend beach fires that haven’t been put out.
“It’s always a prob-lem when people light them and they put sand on them to put them out,” Spry said. “They smoulder a bit and the smoke lingers around the beach area. The problem I see is people don’t put them out properly. If people put a lot of water on them I don’t think the smoke would be an issue, depending on
which way the wind is blowing.”
But Westrum said the smoke is a problem and she wants the city to do something about it.
“I am requesting that the mayor and council consider a bylaw that would ban campfires burning along the sea wall where residences are located,” Westrum said. “A step forward by the city for enacting this bylaw would be a step forward towards a healthier living envi-ronment for all citi-zens.”
Spry doesn’t think a beach fire ban is nec-essary – at least not in most in areas.
“I think if people did what they’re supposed to do it’s something that can be allowed,”
Spry said. “If you’re burning with dry, clean wood and putting them out after you’re done, I don’t think there would be as big a problem with the smoke.”
However, Spry said it would be worth review-ing beach fires along the shore between Hid-den Harbour and Big Rock.
“I would say there’s some consideration for restriction right there,” Spry said. “Properties are right on the ocean and there’s nothing between them and the beach. It’s those prop-erties where I could see there being a prob-lem.”
But between Rotary Park and Willow Point most of the homes are across the highway and Spry said there shouldn’t be a problem as long as people bring a bucket and douse their fires before they leave.
“I’m not sure what council is prepared to do,” Spry said. “But Campbell River is known for its beach fires. It’s advertised when promoting Camp-bell River.”
Douse those beach fires!

City operations must be carbon neutral by year’s end if council wants to fulfil its Cli-mate Action Charter commitments.
The city is required to meet that goal as a signatory to the char-ter, introduced by the provincial government in 2007.
The city adopted a carbon neutral plan in 2011 which includes the city’s 2008 and 2009 greenhouse gas emis-sions, emission reduc-tion targets for 2012, 2020 and 2050, and a plan of action for fur-ther reductions.
For 2012, the city
targeted a 10 per cent reduction below 2008 greenhouse gas emis-sion levels.
Amber Zirnhelt, the city’s sustainability manager, said the city achieved that and more as corporate green-house gas emissions dropped by 12.8 per cent when compared to 2008 levels.
“In 2008, the city’s c o r p o r a t e g r e e n -house gas emissions were 1,485 tonnes of CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) and in 2011 the emissions have been reduced to 1,300 tonnes of CO2e,” Zirn-helt said. “The actions taken by the city to reduce emissions have resulted in overall sav-
ings for operating costs for our buildings, utili-ties, and fleet.”
The goal for 2020 is a 35 per cent reduction below 2008 levels and in 2050, an 85 per cent reduction below 2008 levels.
Zirnhelt said the city exceeded its 2012 target through building and utility energy retro-fits including lighting; solar panels to heat the water at the RCMP building, downtown
Fire Hall, Sportsplex, and Simms Creek lift station; as well as city vehicle upgrades and introducing five per cent biodiesel for those vehicles.
To achieve carbon neutrality by the end of the year, the city will have to buy offsets or invest in local green-house gas emission reduction projects. Or the city can show it’s moving towards being carbon neutral by
opening a savings fund ear-marked for munici-pal projects.
If the city chooses to purchase offsets it will cost $32,500-$40,000 at the end of 2012, based on the city’s green-house gas emission inventories from the past four years and the current price of car-bon at $25 per tonne.
As an alternative, the city could invest in projects such as energy efficient buildings for
privately owned build-ings; solar hot water heating retrofits for privately owned build-ings; household orga-nized waste compost-ing; and low-emission vehicles for public transportation, police and airport.
The city could also go a completely differ-ent route and instead allocate the same dol-lar value that would go toward offsets, in a carbon neutral reserve
fund for future use for city projects.
Although this is not B.C.’s preferred action, Zirnhelt is rec-ommending the carbon meutral reserve fund to council.
“Such a fund will enable the city to con-tinue to make green-house gas emission reductions to munici-pal assets, reducing our carbon footprint, and operating costs,” said Zirnhelt.

Once again, the behaviour of some will jeopardize the privileges of the rest of us. Sitting down on
our spectacular kilometre after kilometre of waterfront and cooking hot dogs over a cheerful beach fire is one of the great things to do in Campbell River. Watching the setting sun reflect on the range of mountains on the mainland coast across from the east coast of
Vancouver Island while enjoying the company of friends and family is a special privilege enjoyed by
many people. Unfortunately, too many people forget to take care of their beach fires, leaving them to “burn out” while they trundle off home oblivious to the potential fire hazard they’ve left behind.
Too often, the fire department has to come in the next morning to extinguish a fire that has become established in the driftwood lining the high tide line. If people keep being so neglectful, we will all lose the privilege of enjoying a campfire on the beach.
It’s not hard to bring along a container that can douse your fire before you leave it. There’s plenty of water. There’s no reason to leave a fire still burning.
Periodically, the neglected fires result in someone suggesting a beach fire ban as the only way to control this. Hopefully it won’t ever come to that but you have to wonder if it eventually will and what a shame that will be.
So, if you’re going to have a beach fire, take a container with you so you can thoroughly douse the fire when you’re done. A plain old ice cream bucket will do. And light the fire below the high tide line, not in amongst the driftwood. It’s not that much extra effort in return for the privilege – not the right, the privilege – of enjoying a beach fire.

Protecting Quadra’s quirks and parks
We say: It’s one of the unique privileges we enjoy here
It’s so redundant around here to say “it’s such a beautiful place” because there are so many beautiful places around here. But Small Inlet is another one of them.
On the northwest coast of Quadra Island is a gouge. That gouge is Granite Bay which indents into the wild northern land mass of Quadra Island. Extending further inland from Granite Bay is a narrow crack extending deeper into the northern Quadra uplands which opens up into a longish bay.
The narrow passage makes Small Inlet fun to paddle into like I did two or three years ago with a group of Venturers. But I first paddled into there in the late 1990s, invited as part
of an effort to publicize the need to complete the provincial park that had been established in 1996.
Well, that effort continues as we saw in the Mirror last week. A campaign to “save the heart of Quadra parks” is bringing in CBC personality Bob McDonald, host of the Mother Corp.’s radio science show Quirks and Quarks. McDonald will be the guest speaker at a fundraising dinner and silent auction at Quadra’s Heriot Bay Inn on Saturday. The Quadra Island Stewardship and Conservancy Asso-ciation is spearheading an effort to raise $200,000 to help the province buy a 365 ha. property that would protect the head and shoreline of Small Inlet. Small Inlet and Octopus
Islands provincial parks touch each other and stretch across part of the southern shore of Small Inlet and Waiatt Bay (Octopus Islands park) and the steeply rising hillside climb-ing out of the inlets. But only part of the shoreline is protected as part of the parks. There’s the northern shore and uplands that could be part of the parks, including a lowland portage trail that links the two bays.
The website www.quadraparks.ca says, “A privately owned 395 hectare property spans the height of land between Small Inlet on the west and Waiatt Bay on the east. It takes in much of the shoreline and views-heds of the bay and inlet, and has been intended for parkland for many
years.”The land is currently privately
owned. The B.C. government signed a conditional $6.15 million purchase agreement for the land which it prom-ised to acquire 16 years ago. The Min-istry of the Environment is working on the ways to secure the money and Quadra Islanders are mounting the $200,000 campaign to help out before the Sept. 28 closing date of the deal.
It’s a great opportunity to complete a natural park boundary in a land-scape that is only partially protected at the moment.
It’s a beautiful place. For more information see www.quadraparks.ca and www.sierraclub.bc.ca.
Re: Irksome Dogwood Lights are showing benefits (Mirror Wed., June 6)
There is no doubt according to the ICBC figures that there has been a dramatic drop in traffic accidents in Campbell River between 2007 and 2011. I feel, however, that one should be cautious about attributing this drop to the Dogwood light system, however keen Mr. Had-field may be to take the credit.
1) The drop in accidents along the whole of Dogwood corridor, including the junctions that have not seen any changes has been from 127 accidents to 70. This is just under a third of the total drop from 394 to 252.
2) The decrease in accidents was already apparent in 2009 (by 96), the year the lights were installed. The drop in accidents along the Dogwood corridor that year was 36.
The ICBC figures need to be interpreted properly and other factors that may account for the drop in accident figures need to be considered (changed driving habits? traffic density? population?). It is premature to use them to justify a project of dubious value.

The city operated on a $65 million budget in 2011 – a year that saw the completion of several major city projects, according to the 2011 Annual City Report released last Thursday.
T h e d o c u m e n t includes the city’s a u d i t e d f i n a n c i a l report conducted by MNP LLP, which found the city’s financial house to be in order.
“In our opinion the consolidated finan-cial statements pres-ent fairly...the City of Campbell River as at Dec. 31, 2011,” wrote MNP LLP in the audit.
According to the report, the city’s net financial assets at the end of 2011 were $18.4 million. Expenses
for the year totalled $47.6 million, which included policing, water, sewer, transport and public health.
Revenues were $55.7 million, with $26.29 million of that coming from property taxes.
The city was still in the midst of collecting property taxes from homeowners as of Dec. 31, 2011 because there were three property assessment appeals still pending. Accord-ing to the annual report, the outcome of those appeals could change the amount of property taxes col-lected by the city this year and in future years. However, the city has a reserve (sav-ings) fund ear-marked for tax refunds. It cur-rently has a balance of $250,000.
Other property taxes
were waived.The city forgave
$330,757 in municipal property taxes to a total of 95 non-profit and charitable orga-nizations such as the Campbell River Head Injury Society, River City Players, the Wil-low Point Lions Club, the Campbell River Tyee Judo Club, and local churches.
The Annual Report not only outlines the city’s financial state-ments but it also high-lights a year full of projects and achieve-ments.
Last year saw the completion of the Highway 19A upgrades between Hilchey and Rockland roads as well as the 1,500 foot runway extension at Campbell River Airport.
The outdoor lacrosse box also opened at
Robron Park and con-struction of the Jubilee Parkway portion of the Greenways Loop (trail that circles the city) was completed in part-nership with Green-ways Land Trust.
The city also ren-ovat e d t h e S y b i l Andrews Cottage in Willow Point; com-pleted the Simms Creek lift station along High-way 19A; and installed free-standing outdoor washrooms next to the Campbell River Visitor Centre and Art Gallery building.
As for achievements, the city snagged a Mar-Com gold award for excellence in commu-nications surround-ing the Highway 19A upgrade project and was awarded a provin-cial Solar Community award for leadership in solar technology; solar
panels heat the water at the RCMP station, the downtown fire hall, Sportsplex and Simms Creek lift station.
The city also received a $55,154 grant from the Federation of Cana-dian Municipalities to support the city’s tidal power feasibility study. The study looked at using tidal energy to power the lights at the fishing pier and at the Maritime Heritage Centre. Unfortunately the study found the wave speeds around the pier are not fast enough to power the two facilities, but the area is an ideal test and research site.
The city’s Statement of Financial Informa-tion, which includes individual councillors’ and the mayor’s yearly earnings, is expected to be published June 22.
2011 was a year of big expenditures

PAUL RUDANCAMPBELL RIVER MIRROR
A drunken thief who tried to smash two business entrances by using a truck has been given a conditional sentence due to his poor health.
Lorne Guy Seitz will basically be under house arrest for two years less a day after pleading guilty to two counts of break and enter, and theft over $5,000.
The 46-year-old has hepatitis C which has caused serious liver problems. He pleaded guilty to the charges on Monday in B.C. Supreme Court in the hope he could get a conditional sentence so he can undergo a year-long treatment program in Campbell River.
“His life is on the line…he knows how important the treat-ment is,” said his law-yer, Chantelle Sutton.
She added that if Seitz does not abide by the conditional sen-tence, he will likely find himself back in jail which would be “a death sentence.”
According to Crown prosecutor Bruce God-dard, on April 30, 2011, Campbell River RCMP received a report of
two men using a pickup truck in an attempt to pull the doors off the General Paint Store, located at Discovery Harbour Mall.
When police arrived shortly before 6 a.m., the truck was gone. The front entrance was damaged, but it appeared no one was able to get inside.
Then another call came in of a similar vehicle being used to try and break into the Willows Pub Cold Beer and Wine Store on Rockland Road.
Once again, by the time officers arrived, the culprits were gone, but they had a good description of the truck as well as the licence plate number provided by a janitor who was cleaning the pub and witnessed the break-in.
Later, when a patrol-ling officer spotted the suspect vehicle and stopped it at the Shell Gas station at the corner of the Inland Island Highway and Willis Road.
Driving the vehicle was Roderick Jurriet, who is well-known to police, with a highly intoxicated Seitz in the passenger seat.
The pickup was taken without consent from Jurriet’s stepfather, but charges against Jurriet were dropped when he agreed to tes-tify against Seitz.
In a statement given to police, Jurriet said Seitz wanted to break into the paint store to
steal two professional spray paint guns val-ued at $2,000.
Then, when Seitz wanted more booze, they drove to the Wil-lows. Video surveil-lance footage shows Seitz using the rear end of the truck to smash the entrance while Jurriet allegedly ran inside and grabbed bottles of alcohol.
After being stopped by police at the Shell S t a t i o n , o f f i c e r s searched the pickup and found two bottles of Fireball liquor and a bottle of vodka.
The truck was also heavily damaged with telltale yellow paint markings from the bar-ricade pillars outside the paint store.
Seitz’ conviction for theft over $5,000 stems from a July 21, 2010, incident which occurred in his home-town of Port Hardy.
During the night, Seitz stole a trailered boat from Pacificus Biological Services. The boat and trailer were later found by police, attached to a red Jeep on Grey Street, parked outside Seitz’ residence.
Seitz tried to explain to police that he had simply taken the wrong boat and why would he steal it and then park it in front of his home?
Earlier, however, Seitz had enlisted the help of a friend to get the boat started. He had also told his buddy that he was confiscat-ing the boat because a
$10,000 drug debt had not been paid.
As Seitz tried to talk his way out of his pre-dicament, the police officer quipped it was, “one of the worst lies he’s ever heard.”
The boat was found heavily scratched and the ignition was also damaged. As part of his plea agreement, Seitz will repay Paci-ficus Biological $1,542 in restitution for the damages.
During the first year of his conditional sentence, Seitz will be under house arrest 24/7 and cannot con-sume alcohol or non-prescription drugs. He can go out with the permission of his supervisor as well as to work or for medical
appointments.During the second
year of the sentence, Seitz is bound by a 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew.
Supreme Justice Christopher Grauer said a jail sentence would normally be appropriate in Seitz’ case, but given his medical condition, the judge approved of the sentence. Sutton noted that Seitz has strug-gled with alcoholism, but he’s been “clean and sober” for the past year.
“ O r d i n a r i l y, I wouldn’t look for a con-ditional sentence order in the circumstances before me; I would look to a sentence of custody,” said Justice Grauer. “I wish you only the best.”

What are the signs & symptoms of an infected wound?All open wounds are contaminated to some degree from the time the injury occurs and there’s always a risk of infection until the wound is completely healed. Signs of an infection may appear as early as one day after the injury or several days later. Infections can be recognized by the following:
Pain & tenderness around the wound.• Heat around the affected area and, sometimes, a fever.• Redness around the wound site and/or red streaks • extending from the wound site.Pus beneath the skin or draining from the wound.• Swelling of the infected area and/or the lymph nodes • close to the wound site.
Signs of fever, swollen and sore lymph nodes and red streaks extending from the wound are signs of a serious infection and require treatment by a physician as soon as possible.

My wife and I just got our tax refunds. My wife wants to invest the money but I am worried about losing it with the stock market being so volatile the past year or so.
Warren Buffett once said “Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.” However, if you are a little of both, you should be investing in a long term portfolio with low to moderate risk funds, rather than speculating on the stock market. Economists are leaning towards dividend producing mutual funds right now, as they are continually buying more of themselves, adding units when prices are low, and seeing gains when those unit prices increase, minimizing overall volatility. However, not all dividend funds are built the same, and not all are lower risk – it is dependent on the holdings within the funds. In these markets it is essential that your Financial Advisor has a good grasp of your personal risk level, and overall fi nancial goals. And note, if your Advisor promises unrealistic returns on low risk investments, you should be prepared for unrealized gains and uncomfortable losses as well.

Tips
First of all, chewing is a very normal and natural thing for any puppy or dog to do.Unfortunately they often chew the wrong thing like the couch or shoes because the owner hasn’t trained their puppy what he can chew and aren’t supervising the puppy properly. Use a kennel or a gated off area to restrict the puppy roaming around and fi nding something to chew on when you can’t be watching him.Invest in at least 2 (or more) KONG toys, they’re hollow so they can be stuffed with the puppy’s meals or treats, give one to your puppy when you go out, he’ll work at getting the food out of it and tire himself out….I also love the Buster Cube - a treat dispensing toy that’ll entertain your puppy for hours and hours. If you fi nd him chewing the wrong thing, redirect to what you want him to chew, and make sure not to leave anything where he can reach it….I’d also suggest upping the exercise your puppy is getting, a “Tired Puppy is a Good Puppy!” Most puppies or adult dogs don’t get enough physical and/or mental exercise, and that’s why they fi nd things to keep themselves busy. If they can’t chew, they might decide to bark or dig instead…..Try hiding treats out in the yard and sending him to go fi nd them, anything to let him use his nose for hunting will certainly wear him out plus he’ll have fun doing it! A walk where he can sniff and investigate will tire him out more than chasing a ball or Frisbee…

Treating a Green PondPreventing a pond from getting green should always be the fi rst step....but even with the best prevention plan we can still end up with green ponds. There are products available that will get rid of your “green water” temporarily. Laguna Clear Fast is an excellent liquid product that you treat the pond with, it causes the green single cell algae that is causing the problem to “clump” and therefore allow your fi lter to remove it. You can use this product fairly often as need necessitates. Add a Laguna UV sterilizer....it’s simple and your pond will be crystal clear! Installation is easy...you “interupt” the pond tubing that you already have, and put in a sterilizer...it’s really that simple. A couple things to consider when adding a UV sterilizer is the fl ow of water you have going through your tubing now. If your fl ow is too high, it will not work properly nor if it is too low.....there are a few guidelines to fl ow regarding UV sterilizers....follow them and enjoy a beautiful crystal clear pond ALWAYS! There are sizes for every pond!

We have mortgage insurance with our bank. Isn’t that enough?
If you have absolutely no debt, do not use credit cards, do not have a line of credit (including no Home Equity Lines of Credit), pay cash for everything, and have substantial savings for any emergencies – then the bank coverage is probably adequate. Most life insurance bought through a lender is meant to just cover the balance owing on the mortgage. 100% must go to pay the bank to eliminate that debt – with nothing going the surviving family members. So, if there is any chance that your family will be left with debt and/or no savings to live on, and affordability is swaying your decision, a laddered life insurance policy is a better option. It will ensure survivors’ don’t have to sell the family home to pay the bills, and that the insurance coverage always matches your fi nancial situation.

Why Does my Dog Stink? Our Canine friends make great companions but they often develop a bad odor. There are many reasons for your dog’s unique smell, but one is area that is commonly overlooked is his or her Ear’s! You can usually recognize an ear infection by seeing redness, debris and an odor in the ear. Ear infections usually stem from over-production of wax, which occurs in response to irritation. The moisture of the wax promotes bacterial and yeast growth. A yeast infection is very stinky smell which usually is the cause of your dog’s unique odor. Most ear infections are cleared up simply with professional cleaning followed by medication at home. If there is only mild debris in the ear canals, simple disinfection and washing of the ear is adequate; however, in many cases, a full ear fl ush is needed to even examine the eardrum. If your canine friend is getting ear infections often you may want to ask your veterinarian about the possibility of an underlying condition such as allergies or a thyroid dysfunction. Most ear infections are cleared up simply with professional cleaning followed by medication at home. If there is only mild debris in the ear canals, simple disinfection and washing of the ear is adequate; however, in many cases, a full ear fl ush is needed to even examine the eardrum.

Does taking calcium supplements increase my risk of having a heart attack? I wrote an article about this in June 2011 (see it at www.DrPincott.com) and there have been numerous studies since about a possible increase risk of heart attack with calcium supplementation. The answer may be that calcium supplementation should never be taken without magnesium and other minerals such as vitamin D3 and vitamin K2. These are commonly prescribed together by naturopathic physicians. All calcium supplements are not created equal and its popular use as a single nutrient antacid for decades is not the way nature provided us with calcium. This latest study was published in the Journal “Heart” in June 2012, a review of the EPIC-Heidelberg study published in July 2011 in the Europe Journal of Nutrition entitled “Vitamin/mineral supplementation and cancer, cardiovascular, and all-cause mortality in a German prospective cohort.” This study was not designed to research the effects of calcium on the risk of heart attacks.

Hearing loss and Alzheimer’s disease – the connection.
Martin & Jana Jurek Hearing Instrument
Practitioners
The symptoms of untreated hearing loss and Alzheimer’s disease are nearly identical. • Depression, anxiety, feelings of isolation• Reduced communication ability• Reduced cognitive input• Inappropriate responses• Reduced mental scores• Denial, heightened defensiveness, negativity• Distrust and Paranoia (especially belief that others are talking about them)Researchers at Colombia–Presbyterian Hospital, in a post-mortem investigation of patients previously diagnosed with AD, found a 45% misdiagnosis rate.The most commonly used screening examinations are administered using spoken words to older adults. These tests assume normal hearing. However, 36% of the population between 65 and 84 years of age has hearing loss and 66% or more of those age 85 years and above have hearing loss. To rule out misdiagnosis a comprehensive hearing evaluation should be a part of everyone’s regular health care.Call to book a free hearing evaluation for you or your loved one.

Why should I think about pH in my garden?Correct pH is a critical but often overlooked aspect when growing in hydroponics, coco coir, or Sunshine/Pro Mix. Put simply, the pH of your fertilizer determines how much of the mineral elements are available and accessible for the plants.Acid loving plants like rhododendrons and hydrangeas require lower pH. Tomatoes require slightly acid conditions, while peonies and sunfl owers love lime, which ‘sweetens’ the soil, or raises the pH.There are a variety of ways to test for pH in your growing medium. pH test strips or electronic equipment are easily available. Or, collect a cup of soil from your area of concern, mix it with 2 cups of distilled water, and bring that in to our shop, and we’d be happy to test it for you.

Jason Kowalchuk, Physiotherapist
Snap, Crackle, Pop! “How does Physiotherapy Spinal Manipulation work for neck and back pain?
Spinal manipulation has been used throughout history, including the father of modern medicine, Hippocrates (460 BC – 370 BC). A Manipulative Physiotherapist is a highly trained professional that uses his hands to assess, diagnose, and treat restrictions in the spine. These hands on techniques help to restore normal motion, reduce pain and muscle tension, and improve function. Not all spine problems require manipulation, but may respond better to a combination of other physiotherapy techniques such as: joint mobilization, exercise, postural correction, electrical modalities, or acupuncture. If you have neck or back pain, ask a Physiotherapist if manipulation is right for you.

What can I do to help with allergy symptoms? Wash your hands. During high allergy season, pollen is everywhere. You get it on your hands opening a car door, running your hands through your hair, or touching other outdoor surfaces. Rubbing your eyes with those pollen-coated hands will only irritate them more. Use saline rinses or artifi cial tears. This can soothe the eyes and help keep you from rubbing them. You can also apply cold compresses to fi nd relief. Wear sunglasses to cut irritants by one-half. Take medications. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about which antihistamines or over-the-counter medications to use. For best effects, use medications throughout the season, not just once in awhile. Remember to use before you are exposed. Ask us at Peoples Drug Mart, we can help.

How to tell if that email is a phishing scam...1. HOVER - don’t click on the links, instead point your mouse at it and hover over them. Check where they are directed. Links that don’t go to the legitimate domain of the business are telltale signs of phishing emails.
2. COPY & PASTE - if ‘hovering’ doesn’t work, copy and paste the link into MS Word. Right click on the link and select “edit hyperlink” to determine the origin.
3. EMAIL PROPERTIES - choose ‘fi le’ and select ‘properties’. In the ‘details’ tab you will see the path the email took to reach the end user.
4. ACT ON TRUSTWORTHY INFO - i.e. if you are getting bank or credit card alerts by email, you should be able to get that same information from the institutions legitimate website, or if in doubt call the 1-800 number
5. WHEN IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT - the best defense against phishing scams is to assume the email is untrustworthy and contact the bank or CC company directly.

If someone does not have the mental capacity to make a Power of Attorney, is there an alternative?
A legal Power of Attorney can only be made if an individual has the capacity to understand the Power of Attorney, its effects, what assets one has, and various other matters.
In situations where there is a diminished mental capacity, then an individual can prepare a basic Representation Agreement to cover their fi nancial matters such as payment of regular bills, purchase of groceries, dealing with pension matters, and tax returns. However, major decisions such as the sale of a property, transfer of or cashing out investments, etc., can not be done through a basic Representaion Agreement. In situations where an individual lacks the capacity to make a Power of Attorney, he/she may be able to make a Representation Agreement because the test of capacity for a Representation Agreement is not as comprehensive as when someone prepares a Power of Attorney.
To avoid extensive costs and legal complications, be sure to have your affairs in order. Preparing Wills, Powers of Attorney, and estate planning are some of the services we provide.

You are not alone in this matter. We have found that gold jewelery (some of it quite dated) is not high on the list of things that a young person needs. A large number of our clients are turning that old gold or silver into cash and buying things such as, a new computer for school, new outfi ts for that fi rst job or new furniture for their fi rst apartment. Now those items are useful and seem to be a big hit. Give us a call if we can help.

Our kitchen is old and needs to be gutted. We want a centre Island but the space seems too narrow to accommodate a bar, any suggestions?
You are right, the space is too narrow for a centre island if using standard 24” deep cabinets with an additional 12” overhang for bar stools. We can however cheat, by designing custom cabinets 17” deep, keep the 12” bar overhang and still have a 42” walkway between your wall counter and the island as well as 32” between the bar and the far wall.

Should I renovate before I sell?There are a few things to think about before you renovate. First, fi nd out what other renovated homes in your neighborhood are selling for. Then compare them to yours to get an idea how much room you have for renovations in order to turn a profi t. Call your REALTOR® for help with this. If your home is already one of the most expensive homes in your neighborhood chances are renovating is a bad idea. Should you decide to renovate, a REALTOR® is a valuable source of information. We can advise you on what buyers are looking for in colors and fi nishings, from paint to fl ooring to cabinets to light fi xtures…you name it. If you are thinking of renovating to sell and need some expert advice, give me a call. I will gladly provide a no obligation home evaluation and renovation consultation.

Is my donation paying for something the government should be funding?Private donations allow priority medical equipment to be replaced faster than if government funding alone was relied on. Your help enables improvements to patient care to happen more quickly. The idea of supplementing public funding for health care through private donations has a long tradition — and is common practice across Canada. The reality is that increased needs for modernized medical equipment make it impossible for government to replace equipment as promptly as desired. With your help, the Campbell River Hospital Foundation helps fund nearly 20% of capital medical equipment purchases for the Campbell River Hospital.

What services are provided by a Licensed Optician? The Licensed Optician will subjectively and objectively verify the accurance of the prescription as reproduced in the eyeglasses and make certain that the person’s visual acuity is what was anticipated by the prescriber. Opticians are also trained to take proper anatomical measurements, make appropriate initial and ongoing adjustments to eyewear. Dangers of Internet eyeglasses. Wearing eyeglasses with the wrong prescription will cause some very unpleasant side effects that are really not worth suffering through just to save a few dollars on buying eyeglasses online. Just think, how would you like to suffer from nausea, headaches, blurred vision, strained eyes, dizziness and vertigo? Your reluctance to choose the services of a Licensed Optician and suffer the side effects instead, can cause harm, not only to yourself but to others as well. The Internet seller tells the customer to go to the local licensed professional for upkeep, maintenance and troubleshoting thus creaming off what then becomes easy money and leaving the real work of dispensing - the clean-up - to the licensed professional.

I’m ready for a Vacation!Is my Vehicle? All packed up on Friday afternoon with 2 excited kids, the family pet and too much cargo for a three day trip. Half way there the Service Engine Light comes on, smoke comes out from under the hood and you’re now pulled over with the four way fl ashers on, unsure of what to do with this break down which probably could have been avoided with some preventative maintenance and a routine inspection done by your local dealer. Don’t let yourself fall victim to mechanical breakdown especially this time of year when overheating in the hot summer sun is so common. No one knows your vehicle better than a Factory Trained Technician with years of experience servicing and repairing your brand of vehicle. You are expected to forget something when preparing for a trip but don’t let it be your vehicle. Have an inspection done before heading out on the trip you’ve been planning to allow yourself a little “Peace of Mind” that your vehicle is safe and won’t let you down.

Many people are confused about an outboard choke verses primers.
When starting an older carburetor motor with a choke, you push in the key on most models, which causes a fl apper valve to block the fl ow of air to the carburetor pulling gas directly into the motor. But a primer is an electric solenoid that releases every time the key switch is pushed in to prime the engine. With one push a short shot of gas goes directly into the carburetor body, and holding the key in continuously shoots fuel into the carburetor to start the motor. On fuel injected motors, you turn the key, wait 2 to 3 minutes until the computer pressurizes the fuel system, then you can start the motor with no choke needed.

We are going on a cruise and I am concerned about getting my exercise in while I travel. If your idea of a great vacation involves daily runs in the open air, a leisurely workout in a hi-tech gym or a smorgasbord of fi tness classes from Pilates to Zumba, a cruise may be the perfect getaway for you. If you really want your cruise to be all about good health, choose a theme cruise. There are special cruises for runners and golfers, as well as general health and wellness lifestyle cruises (often featuring workshops on yoga, meditation and healthy diets). For those who prefer less of a gym-based approach to working out, dance-themed cruises will keep you on your toes day and night.

To space bar or Not to space bar? That is the Question.Some people still think that the space bar is the most important key on the keyboard when it comes to formatting a document.People use the space bar to center text on a page, they use the space bar to create indents, and they use the space bar to create tables and columns. This, I guarantee, drives everyone who works in a print shop, copy shop, or any kind of service bureau that deals with customers fi les, crazy. The space bar is used for one thing and one thing only – to separate two words.In MS Word, Publisher, and every other text publishing/creation program, there is the ability to format text, which includes centering. Also, you can use the tab button on your computer to create indents and most programs these days give you the option of creating tables to make tables for your data, lists and recipes.The reason I stress using these options as opposed to using the space bar is that when you take a document in to a service bureau for printing, the formatting stays truer to what you had intended. This will ensure that your prints, copies, etc. will look like what you had in mind rather than have words all over the space.

I am taking a water pill to control my blood pressure and I am wondering if you have treatment for elevated blood pressure? Water pills or diuretics cause defi ciencies in minerals such as magnesium and zinc which most people don’t know about and both of these are important for optimal blood pressure! If blood pressure can be controlled with naturopathic herbs and treatment protocols this is a much better option. The normal parameter for blood pressure according to the Cochrane group is 160/100 or less if there are no other symptoms or risk factors. Ask your naturopathic physician what your options might be and make sure you are monitored by a professional if you want to change your medication.

Get ready Campbell River – the Museum at Campbell River’s Summer Historic Boat Tours are about to set sail for another excit-ing season.
The weather is pre-dicted to be ideal this summer for getting on the water and explor-ing the fascinating history of the Discov-ery Islands. The first two trips in the series begin on Sunday and then again on Sunday, June 24. On June 17 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., the series kicks off
with a tour through Desolation Sound.
This waterway has to be on everyone’s ‘bucket list’, though it didn’t impress Captain George Vancouver who described the area as
“truly forlorn.” Today, Desolation
Sound is considered one of the premier cruising destinations on the Northwest Coast. The cost for this tour is $130 and
includes on-board historic interpreta-tion and a light picnic lunch.
The trip on June 24, from 2-6 p.m., travels to the waters surround-ing beautiful Cortes Island with a stop at the amazing Cassel Falls in Teakerne Arm. This waterfall was described by Archibald Menzies, Capt. Vancou-ver’s botanist, as hav-ing “a wild romantic appearance aided by its rugged situation and gloomy forest.”
The cost is $130,
including light lunch and onboard historic interpretation.
These historic trips are offered through a partnership between the Museum and Dis-covery Marine Safa-ris. Please call the Museum at 287-3103 to register. Different trips are being offered every Sunday through-out the summer. Check the website at www.crmuseum.ca for more information. Join the Museum for a ‘History On The Water’ summer experience!

The Paramount music hall was packed June 4 for Carihi’s musical showcase Presence.
Hundreds piled in to support and watch Carhi musicians perform music they created and recorded in a unique class called Music Com-position offered at Carhi. Presence showcased the material these stu-dents have worked on all year as well as too raise funds for Carihi’s music program. The concert head-lined Carihi band Who Is Barbosa with performances from the music composition class.
Not only did the night have a full audience but it also raised an impressive sum.
The concert usually held at Carihi was organized by student volunteers partially due to the job action issues that arose this year. Kyell Erickson and Mitchell Robertson took the ini-
tiative for putting on this concert. “We wanted to keep the tradition
of Presence going as we feel that it is only fair we and our peers get to show off what we’ve been working on all year. When the opportunity to have an all ages show at the Para-mount Music Hall arose and I pre-sented Gary (Manager of the Para-mount) with the idea of “Presence” it really took off. Gary was just as excited as us,” said Kyell Erickson lead vocalist for Who Is Barbosa.
Having the show at the Paramount Music Hall is something brand new to Carihi and with its success this year has great hopes to become a yearly tradition.
“The show went fantastic, every-one who played was spot on. Every-thing went smooth and according to plan,” said Who Is Barbosa’s lead guitarist Collin Massie.
Carihi musicians rocked the Paramount June 4 for the annual music program
showcase and fundraiser Presence.

The Best Little . . . Dance-hall in Deadwood is a clas-sic whodunit that will enter-tain and befuddle.
On June 22, River Spirit presents a night of murder and mayhem in the Wild West coast aka The Mari-time Heritage Centre.
Written by Susan Haley of Haley productions, the murder mystery tells the tale of a downtrod-den, almost forgotten town that once thrived and prospered when folks thought gold was in “them thar” hills. Now the hills contain nothing but dirt so the town lost not only its fortune but its fame and its population. Now Dead-wood is just an occasional stagecoach stopover and a haven for outlaws. It is just another night in Deadwood, only this time it will more deadly than usual. Will you be able to figure out who-dunit?
The event begins at 6 p.m.
in the dancehall where you will receive a complimentary glass of wine. Throughout the evening you will be part of the action interpreting clues, enjoying delicious hot and cold appetizers pre-pared by Quay West and bid-
ding on packages that the owner originally wanted to give to his loyal employees.
Sadly, he now is forced to sell off the trips and rum-mage through his attic for other items to sell.
The trips include: two tick-ets to The Jersey Boys with overnight in a deluxe suite at the Rosedale Hotel, a din-ner at Joey’s Restaurant and return ferry fare; a Stubbs Island whale watching trip for two plus accommodation at Telegraph Cove; a one hour helicopter ride for 5; fishing in the Tyee Pool and the always favourite two-day all inclusive guided fishing trip at Morgan’s Landing.
The $35 tickets include a door prize ticket to win, among other things, a gold and silver carved bracelet from the Museum at Camp-bell River or a fabulous gift basket from Something Special Gifts. Tickets are available at Coho Books and by email [email protected] or from any member of the Campbell River Dragon Boat Society.

Murder and mayhem in Deadwood will benefit River Spirit dragon boat team
The Campbell River Art Gallery is offering two creative week-long camps for children ages 7 to 12 this summer.
Summer art instructor and Assistant Curator Jessica Blue will run the art camps with a focus on painting, as well as sculpture and collage. Blue is a University of Victoria student majoring in Visual Arts who brings a wealth of fresh ideas and experience to the table. The programs run from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. each day, so they’re per-fect for children whose parents work during the day.
The first camp, Acrylic Adventures, runs from July 23 – 27. Students will work mainly with acrylic paint and look at a variety of artists and art movements each day to learn different styles of painting. Participants will discuss and be exposed to different forms of painting through various art activities.
The second camp, Art Extravaganza, is set for Aug. 13 – 17. Participants will work with a variety of tools and techniques in areas such as painting, collage, drawing, and sculpture. There will also be a Sharpie pen tie dying activity, so bring an article of white or light-colored clothing, like a shirt or pair of socks, to tie dye. There will be an outdoor component to both camps, includ-ing field trips to Robert Ostler Park to sketch. All materials are included so kids can just bring their imagination and enjoy creating beautiful works of art in a fun group setting.
The cost for each camp is $165 for Gallery mem-bers and $175 for non-members. You can register by phone at 250-287-2261 or in person at the Camp-bell River Art Gallery. For more information, check out www.crartgallery.ca. All Children’s Summer Art Programs are sponsored by Grieg Seafood.

HOROSCOPESThe week of June 10–16, 2012The week of June 10–16, 2012
ARIESThis week you wake up ready to conquer the world, metaphorically speaking of course! You’ll be animated by lots of energy and the desire to accomplish great things.
TAURUSYou want to undertake big changes in your diet and the way you live. You’ll succeed in working small miracles on your body.
GEMINIYour circle of friends will expand, just like your profes-sional network of contacts. These people will be of ben-efi t to you, materially as well as psychologically.
CANCERYou are the type of person who can bridge the gap between reason and emo-tions. It is this potential that will help you to accomplish a task or even help someone.
LEOYou will soon be on vaca-tion, although it’s likely you’ll only organize something with your friends at the last moment. There will also be a great opportunity to party.
VIRGOIf you’re in the process of moving, you will realize that huge changes are coming and that a new, more stimu-lating life is waiting for you around the corner.
LIBRAYou might feel pressured
to make a decision. Take all the time you need to weigh the pros and cons, and don’t hesitate to ask for advice.
SCORPIOYour work seems to take up most of your week. A few changes at the offi ce will require you to make adjust-ments, but you will be fully functional again immedi-ately.
SAGITTARIUSYou could definitely be approaching your hour of glory. People will rush to congratulate you and make you the centre of attention, both at work and in your social life.
CAPRICORNYou could spend part of the week at home for one reason or another. You will prepare the house for visitors or even to welcome someone for a set period of time.
AQUARIUSYou’re certainly never at a loss for words, and your opinion will be scrupulously respected. You will feel very proud to have been able to explain your position in a very precise situation.
PISCESYou could fi nd out that there will soon be a birth in the family. You’ll also be tempt-ed to fi nd a new home large enough to accommodate everyone.

On a quiet Sunday morn-ing in 1972,
Lucas Stiefvater saw the Vancouver skyline with the snow capped Coastal Mountains reflecting golden in the distance and knew that he had arrived.
Two months earlier, he and is friend Nor-bert landed in New York on a flight from Germany.
They bought two Greyhound Bus tick-ets, $99 for 99 days, boarded the bus and proceeded to travel across the United States, Mexico and Canada. They slept on the bus, showered where they could, and ate cinnamon buns in every bus station. It was an adventure tailor made for two young men from Ger-many.
As it turned out it was the beginning of a 40-year adventure. When they stamped Stiefvater’s passport at the Peach Arch border crossing, he
thought he was here for a season. Despite growing up in a Black Forest guesthouse and his extensive training in hospitality, Stief-vater’s first jobs were night watchman at the Vancouver Holi-day Inn and banquet waiter at the Georgia Hotel, where nearly everyone spoke Ger-man.
He studied English during the day and within a year he and his German girlfriend Annemarie moved
to Cloverdale, where he became manager/partner for a local café. He and Annema-rie eventually married and raised two sons Daniel and Jordan.
Over the years, Stiefvater owned and operated several suc-cessful businesses including the Copper Kettle Restaurant chain in Vancouver, Clayquout Lodge on Stubbs Island in Tofino, Aspen Hotel Smithers and eventu-ally the Kingfisher Resort and Spa in the Comox Valley.
“Canada is my home!” says Stiefvater. “When I look back over the last 40 years I am in awe! That boy growing up in Wie-den, Germany never dreamed that his life would turn out like this and that he would enjoy the kind of suc-cess I have!”
Stiefvater now owns two properties in Campbell River, Ocean Resort, Vancouver Island’s wellness cen-
tre and spa, and Her-ons Landing Hotel. He and his current part-ner Cheryl Levine, live on the Ocean Resort property enjoy-ing a rich and full life together.
“It feels right to cel-ebrate this moment in my life. I am very grateful to Canada, and to the Comox Valley and Campbell River communities. I want to give some-thing back, on this my 40th year in Canada,”, explains Stiefvater.
In order to mark this celebration, Stiefvater and Levine are host-ing an open house and barbeque on Friday from 5-8 p.m. at Ocean Resort.
Guests will be free
to tour the facilities, walk the labyrinth and enjoy a delicious barbequed dinner. Tickets for the event are $20 per person. All proceeds go to the Eureka House in Courtenay and the Beacon Club in Campbell River(both organizations support individuals with men-tal illness). Stiefvater will match the pro-ceeds from ticket sales and the raffles dollar for dollar.
“It is a honour to give back.”, says Stief-vater. “We are hoping to that the community will come out and help us celebrate!” For more information or to RSVP call Ocean Resort at 250 923 4281.

Managing Your Money
Graduating intoa new nancial reality
Congratulations on your graduation. Welcome to the real world. It’s time to pay back those loans you and your parents lined up to pay for your education. It’s also time to nd a job, pay for new expenses like furniture and rent, and to put money aside for bigger purchases to come like a car and maybe a home. Post-grad nancial pressures can be overwhelming, both for the grads and their parents who may still be providing nancial support. The newly minted grad wants nancial stability and, sooner rather than later, nancial independence. Here are the key nancial issues you need to address post-haste, post-grad. Repaying student loans During your school years, you may have different loans with different lenders that will require separate payments to each lender. These tips will help you manage them: It can seem easier to consolidate multiple student loans into one standard loan and one simple payment. But consider that convenience might cost you more in the long run because student loans often charge a lower interest rate than loans through a nancial institution.
• Federal and provincial loan programs offer a grace period following completion of studies before repayment is required. For Canada student loans, you must begin repayment six months after ceasing to be a full-time student; provincial grace periods vary by province but, in some cases, are as longas a year.• Before beginning repayment, check your eligibility for loan forgiveness and keep more money in your pocket. Make sure you apply if you are eligible.• You will be able to claim a non-refundable federal tax credit of 15% on the interest you pay each year on your student loans. But you can’t claim the credit if your loan has been combined with another kind of loan.• Important! Your student loan repayment history becomes part of your
personal credit rating. Being late or disorganized with your payment harms your credit rating. Reach your life and nancial goals by starting now, with an effective personal budget and savings plan. Even with all the competing demands on your limited income, the best strategy is to build a regular amount for savings into your monthly budget that rises as your income increases. Good nancial habits are the key to long-term nancial success. A professional advisor can help you make your personal nancial goals.

The Campbell River Advanced Power Marine Midget B Ravens lacrosse team put up a valiant effort in a Victoria tournament last weekend despite the loss of their number one goaltender.
The Ravens began the Matt Underwood Tourna-ment at a disadvantage as their goalie, Bailey Rob-inson, was injured in a league game in Comox.
Runner Nathan Hoff stepped in, playing three of his six games between the posts.
Hoff played in net the first game which put the team down one runner but they were also short three players that had some traffic issues en route to the arena and one player that was serving a game suspension.
First game of the tournament was against the Prince George Posse. The Ravens seemed to be lacking in scoring as the Posse were up 7-2 at the end of the second period. The Ravens outscored Prince George in the third period five goals to two but it wasn’t enough as the Ravens lost 9-7.
Later that same day, the Ravens were up late to take on the Port Coquitlam Saints. Tied 2-2, the Ravens dominated the second period and held the Saints scoreless with great defence by Ryan Smith and Steven Dykhuisen.

Summer means longer days, warmer tempera-tures, and more time spent outdoors. The pleasant weather brings more opportunities to improve your lifestyle and start a new commitment to wellness. With a few tips, you can be on your way to fi t and fun summer living. 1. Eat fresh. Summer is prime time for
fresh produce, and incorporating fruits and vegetables into your dai-ly menus is a delicious way to a fi t lifestyle. With a high-performance blender, you can easily make hun-dreds of whole-food recipes that taste great. Whether it’s a whole-fruit smoothie, frozen sorbet, fat-free salad dressing, or veggie dip, this powerhouse machine can whip up endless nourishing options.
2. Move it. Getting fi t doesn’t need to mean hours at the gym, especially during these warmer months. Sim-ple activities like going for a bike ride or taking your dog for a walk are great ways to get moving while also enjoying the outdoors. Swim-ming is a great low-impact, full-body exercise that lets you work out while cooling off. Or try another sport that you wouldn’t be able to participate in during winter, such as golf, outdoor basketball, or beach volleyball. Making an activity part of your routine is a great way to keep at it, so set
aside a window of time for exercise each day. Take advantage of the warm weather and get moving outdoors for a fi t and fun-fi lled sum-mer.
3. Relax. Summer is the perfect opportunity to
unwind and treat yourself to some “me” time. Focus on doing things you enjoy, such as fi nish-ing that book you’ve been reading for months, learning to play tennis or how to surf, or simply
basking in the sunshine. Whatever you choose,make time each week to let go and de-stress.Summer is a popular season for vacations to thebeach and other outdoor destinations, but youcan also fi nd tranquility in your own backyard.
Meditation and yoga are calmingactivities that will leave you feel-ing refreshed and rejuvenated,too. 4. Sleep. You can improve yourlifestyle even when you’re notawake. Good sleep habits are es-sential to physical and mentalwell-being, and inadequate restcan curtail your efforts to eatright and exercise. Muscles needtime to repair and regenerate afterworking hard, making proper resta vital component of any fi tnessroutine. Make sure your bedroomis a comfortable temperature,adding fans or blankets as need-ed, and remove or turn off brightlights and electronic screens. Getinto a nightly routine, and try notto eat or exercise for at least anhour prior to going to sleep. Whenyou’re well-rested and rejuvenat-
ed, the other aspects of your improved lifestylewill be even more enjoyable and effective.
With a few lifestyle adjustments, you’ll be on yourway to happy, healthy summer living.

It’s that time of year again when you can dig your hands into the dirt, spread seeds over the freshly turned earth, and smell the delicious scent of green plants growing. Gardening is very healthy, both physically and mentally. In addition to providing exercise, gardening delivers health benefi ts in the fresh foods you eat and in the calming presence of fl owers in your environment. To get the most out of gardening’s health benefi ts, it’s a good idea to do a bit of stretching to help avoid injury or irritating existing conditions while out in the garden. Here are some tips to stay healthy: Stretch those muscles Heading out into the garden is just like going for a jog or visiting the gym. Before you grab all your gardening tools, practice some full-body stretches to warm up your muscles. Target your arms, legs and back, because the muscles in these areas will be put to good use while you’re planting, weeding and watering. And before you fi nish for the day, do some more stretching to help loosen any muscles that tightened during your gardening work.
Banish bending Many Americans suffer from chronic back pain, which can put a damper on the gardening experience. Consider installing raised garden beds, which allow you to garden without have to bend over. And container gardens can be placed on tables or deck railings to make it easy to reach plants. Hand and wrist protection a must Weeding, hoeing, raking, shoveling - the repetitive motions of gardening can lead to hand and wrist pain, and worsen existing conditions such as arthritis. Taking steps to minimize irritation and discomfort while you work can help ensure your gardening tasks don’t create aches or worsen pain. Keep skin protected Because gardening keeps a person
outdoors a lot during the warm, summer months, it’s important to protect your skin from insect bites and sunburn. While most insect bites are just an irritation, sunburn can
cause serious, long-term skindamage. Use insect repellentand sunscreen that blocks bothUVA and UVB rays. Also weara wide-brimmed, lightweighthat and sunglasses to protectyour eyes and keep the sun offyour head. Lift carefully Between the heavy bags ofsoil, the many tools needed,or full baskets of vegetablesbeing carried into the kitchenfor processing, lifting isa common labor whengardening. Remember to liftfrom a squatting position, withyour back straight, so that yourlegs do the work, not yourback. When kneeling down,use gardening kneepads oreven just a rolled up towel tocushion your joints from thehard, damp ground. Rememberto minimize twisting motionsthat can inure your back andjoints. Enjoy the healthful benefi ts of
gardening this summer. Follow these simple precautions to keep safe and injury-free so you can play in your garden until the snow falls.

This checklist is based on the November 2007 food and nutrition recommendations from the World Cancer Research Fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research. Experts worldwide were involved in reviewing the science behind food and cancer prevention to come up with key recommendations.Promise yourself you will make at least one of these changes in your diet to reduce your risk of cancer.• Eat a variety of vegetables and fruit
each day. Try berries (fresh or frozen) broccoli, cabbage, citrus fruits, cooked tomatoes and bok choy.
• Eat whole grains (whole-wheat pasta and breads, barley, wild rice) and/or legumes (peas, beans, lentils) with every meal.
•Limit refi ned, starchy foods (white bread, white pasta, white rice, processed cereals).
•Eat very little, if any, processed meats (luncheon meats such as salami and ham, sausages, hot dogs, bacon, canned meats).
•Eat less than 500 grams of cooked red meat a week. That means eating less than seven Food Guide servings (75 g or 2 ½ oz) of red meat per week. Remember to eat a variety
of lower fat choices from the meat and alternative food group including two fi sh serving per week and plenty of legumes (beans, peas, lentils, chickpeas).
• If you don’t drink alcohol, don’t start. If you do drink, limit consumption to two drinks a day for men and one drink a day for women. (One drink = 5 oz wine, 1.5 oz spirits or 12 oz regular beer). Don’t drink if you are pregnant.
• Limit salt and salty foods (chips, soy sauce and seasoning mixes), and limit processed foods with added salt (canned soups, processed meats). Read labels to limit salt. Try adding fl avour when cooking by using fresh garlic, turmeric, cooked tomatoes and citrus for great taste.
• Eat fast foods sparingly, if at all.• Avoid sugary drinks (soft drinks,
sweetened fruit drinks, fruit cocktails). Instead, try freshly brewed green or black tea- it may help protect against heart disease and cancer.
• Eat sparingly foods that are high in calories and low in nutrients (chips, candy, chocolate, cakes, cookies, ice cream, sour cream, fried foods).

Women: Tips for better health and energyMoms, career women, singles enjoying life with close friends and family, and even women approaching their retirement years - women at every life stage can benefi t from adding simple activities to improve their happiness and health. Activities can range from enjoying a delicious breakfast to incorporating a cardiovascular workout to limbering up and stretching those muscles. Consider incorporating a new element to your day to enrich your lifestyle, improve your digestive health and give you energy to tackle the rest of your day. Need some ideas? Try one of these options: • Flexible body - Healthy stretching
can improve fl exibility, and help reduce joint or muscle pain. Target core muscles in the legs - such as hips, thighs and calves - and in the upper torso including the lower back, neck and shoulders. While stretching,
don’t bounce, or push the stretch past the point of pain. Gently hold each stretch for about 30 seconds.
• Fun workouts - Exercise can be a very negative word for some women, but there are several ways to enjoy a
physical workout. Like to dance? Sign up for an adult jazz, ballroom dance or even Zumba class. Don’t like to sweat? Take your workout to the pool with some water aerobics. Bored? Bring a friend or family member with you for some exercise like a bike ride, inline skating, a walk or maybe even a yoga class. • Breakfast treats - What you consume
at the beginning of the day can determine how the rest of your day goes. Getting good amounts of fi bre and protein through fruits and dairy products is a great way to target heart health, and maintain high energy levels throughout the day. Enjoy a fruit smoothie at the start of your day.

“Your Health. Made Easier.”
Keeping informed and educated about your healthA diagnosis of cancer can be extremely frightening. Along with the battery of medical tests, patients are often faced with an overwhelming amount of information to absorb, covering everything from disease information, treatment decisions to fi nancial implications. This fear of the “unknown” is often the worst part of any cancer diagnosis. In order to cope, patients often rely heavily on their doctors and support groups to help them translate the enormous amount of medical information into language that makes sense and is most relevant to them and their personal cancer journey. For many, like single mom Robyn Greene, getting the right information about her diagnosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a blood cancer, was critical for both her and her family. In September 2008, Greene was constantly plagued by severe colds, fevers and stomach bugs. Robyn chalked this up to her 14-month old son who was in daycare, and was often catching colds from the other children. But, after more than 6 months of no improvement, she visited her general practitioner who conducted a blood test in February of 2009. Within a week, Greene received her shocking diagnosis: CML. “As a single mom of a toddler, I was terrifi ed that I had received a death sentence with my cancer diagnosis,”
says Greene. “Thankfully, my doctor referred me to a cancer specialist who, after further reviewing my test results, said that he had high hopes for me because patients with CML can continue to live active lives for years to come. Even more surprising to me was
that this type of cancer can be managed through medication.” Today, as a result of advances in the understanding of CML and the availability of treatment options which control the underlying cause of the disease, CML can be managed by working closely with a healthcare team to develop the best possible treatment plan.
That’s just what Greene did. After learning ofher diagnosis, Greene worked closely with herphysician to develop a personal disease managementplan, including communicating with her doctor tounderstand her treatment plan, establishing clear
treatment goals and continuing to takeher medication as prescribed. Withproper disease management and supportfrom her friends and family, Greenecontinues to live an active life. “Six months after I started treatment, Iwas in major molecular response, whichmeans that the levels of the cancer-causing protein - known as Bcr-Abl - isnearly undetectable in my body,” saysGreene. “I continue to work closely withmy physicians to evaluate my treatmentplan, and aside from a few side effects,I am able to live the full and activelifestyle that I enjoy, including raisingmy son and working full-time.” ABOUT CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKEMIA (CML) Chronic myeloid leukemia is a cancerof the blood and bone marrow in which
the body overproduces white blood cells. Chronicmeans a relatively slower-growing cancer that maytake years to progress. Myeloid refers to the typeof white blood cell being overproduced. CML isresponsible for approximately 10 to 15 percent of alladult cases of leukemia, with an incidence of one totwo cases per 100,000 people per year.
