Delta Coun. Sylvia Bishopannounced this week she is throw-ing her hat in the ring for thenomination to run as the NDPcandidate in Delta North.

“I have always thought aboutwanting to serve as an MLA,”the first-term councillor saidWednesday morning.

Delta North NDP MLA GuyGentner announced his retire-ment last week.Gentner, alsoa former Deltacouncillor, hasserved twoterms as MLAfor the riding.

Bishop saidwith the pro-vincial electiona little over six months away sheheard that Gentner was consider-ing his next move, so once hemade the announcement last weekshe started making, and getting,phone calls about possibly run-ning for the nomination.

The Tsawwassen resident saidshe thought about it through theweekend before making a finaldecision earlier this week.

Bishop is a long-time memberof the provincial NDP and unsuc-cessfully ran for the party in the1980s.

“Good social policy has alwaysbeen important to me,” she said.

Bishop said her experiencesduring her year on council haveadded to her skills that she wouldbring to the job of MLA.

“There are some problems thatcan only be solved on a provinciallevel,” she said.

If she were elected MLA, itwould trigger a civic by-election.

The cost of relocating feral rab-bits from the municipal precinctto Ladner Harbour Park was lessthan anticipated, Delta councilwas told Monday.

Staff provided councillorswith an update on Delta’s rabbitmanagement program, initiatedearlier this year to sterilize andremove hundreds of problem rab-bits. It was a program budgeted at$60,000 but, thanks to volunteers,worked out to less than $25,000.

A staff report notes during the

last three to four years, the popu-lation of rabbits in the civic pre-cinct increased significantly to anestimated 400 to 500. As a resultof abandonment and uncontrolledbreeding, the bunnies were caus-ing significant property damageto buildings and landscaping.

Delta had spent approximately$350,000 to repair damage tobuildings and grounds in the civicprecinct, while in 2011 DeltaHospice spent approximately$70,000 to repair damage.

A veterinarian estimated thatwithout intervention, the popula-tion would have continued to

grow to more than 1,000 rabbitswithin a year.

Coun. Robert Campbell said ifsomething wasn’t done, the totaldamage would have kept climbingto perhaps $1 million or more.

“This is not just Delta’s prob-lem, it’s happening elsewhere,”Campbell said. “You see rab-bits being dumped now at theRichmond Auto Mall and theyhave to deal with that.”

The municipality began lookingfor “humane” and “cost effec-tive” solutions last fall, asking

It was a chance for theold-timers to get together,reminisce and talk about thechanging face of farming inDelta.

Organized by the DeltaFarmers’ Institute, currentas well as farmers of anolder vintage gathered fora third annual luncheonat East Delta Hall lastThursday afternoon. It wasa chance for the almost 100or so to swap stories andcatch up with friends, manyof whom are children oreven later descendants ofthose in the historic photosthat were on display.

“I think this event iswonderful, and they’renot all farmers. The farm-ing community is morethan farmers,” says MikeGuichon, a third generationfarmer.

Retired veterinarian Dr.Gordon Davis, who beganhis practice in 1946, saysDelta’s farming scene hasundergone big changes. Forexample, there were around100 farms at one point thathad dairy cows, but nowthat number has dwindledto around eight, he says.

Davis says the expropria-tion of thousands of acresby the provincial govern-ment back in the late 1960swas the biggest signalthings would change.

Agriculture came tothe delta in 1868 whentwo brothers, Thomas andWilliam Ladner, began tocultivate land at what isnow part of Ladner towncentre.

The Delta Farmland andWildlife Trust, which hasbeen working for years

with the DFI on habitatprograms, points out thatthat by the late 1980s, two-thirds of the farmland inDelta was farmed underlease, less than 10 per centof the land was under for-age production and localprocessing facilities wereon the decline, as was soilproductivity.

Farmers have been adapt-ing their operations at everypoint in history to remainviable. The general compo-sition of farming operationscontinues to change as moreland is being converted to“newer” crop types such asgreenhouse-grown produce,cranberries and blueberries.

Farming in Delta hasalso faced a myriad ofother challenges over thedecades, including highwayconstruction as well as portand other developmentpressures.

The Agricultural LandReserve covers much ofDelta’s current farm base,however, pressures con-tinue, including farmlandbeing eyed by industrialinterests looking to servicefuture port growth.

“I shudder to think what’sin the future,” says GordonHuff, 90.

A Ladner resident whoquit farming in 1962, Huffsays he meets regularly with

current and retired farmersfor a social gathering at theBoundary Bay Airport’scoffee shop.

“The ex-farmers and alot of the others who arethere, they all just shaketheir heads, and I guess I dotoo. It’s happening, a lot ofit has already happened andit’s still going to happen.”

Ex-farmer Gary Bowingagreed, saying there’s ahuge demand for land.Coupled with highwaydevelopment, it spells badnews for Delta’s agriculturalland, Bowing says.

Stan Burr, who stillowns an 82-acre farm thatgrows potatoes and other

vegetables, although he nowrents his portion to otherfamily members, says hedoesn’t think much of thenew South Fraser PerimeterRoad.

As far as his view of thefuture of the family farmin Delta, Burr says, “I can’tsay there’s too big a future,the way farming is chang-ing so much now.”

Burr says he didn’t thinkmuch of the ALR when itwas introduced in the early1970s, but now there’sno doubting it’s needed.He adds MLA VickiHuntington has done a goodjob advocating for farmlandpreservation.

Ken Davie, whose twosons are still runningtheir family dairy farm,says farmers “are gettingsqueezed more and more.”

Longtime WesthamIsland farmer Gord Ellis,72, whose family startedfarming in the area in 1916,says his farm still goingstrong, growing such cropsas potatoes and pump-kins. His daughter Sharonruns the roadside stand atWestham Island Herb Farm.Ellis, who’s on the DFI’sdiking and drainage com-mittee, says Westham Islandneeds a major dike upgrade,so a long-term plan shouldbe formulated for such anundertaking.

Some of the retired farm-ers on hand included LloydTamboline, whose familybegan farming in the early1900s and still farms onWestham Island.

Tamboline, who broughta collection of old photo-graphs to display, says he’sseen many changes in thefarming scene.

Ian Paton, a farmer whonow serves on Delta coun-cil, says his dad and theRoddicks started a similarget together a number ofyears ago, and he’s gladit’s been revived. He saysa lot of the old-timers havepassed on, but he’s glad somany are still around.

Paton wonders how manyfarmers from younger gen-erations will be around forsuch gatherings in a fewyears.

Several at the eventnoted they missed the lateDelta Optimist writer EdgarDunning, who providedinteresting stories at a theirluncheon a couple of yearsago.

Farmers have seen much changeOld-timers get together to reminisce as well as reflect on challenges the industry faces in these parts

the Ministry ofEnvironment for assistance.

A response by assis-tant deputy minister JodyShimkus listed several con-cerns about relocation pro-grams, including the releasesites becoming dumpinggrounds for unwantedpets. During the trapping

program conducted at theUniversity of Victoria, rab-bits were discovered inareas that had been cleared,suggesting that rabbit own-ers continued to abandontheir pets there.

The ministry’s position,she said, is the most costeffective means to con-

trol rabbit populations isto humanely capture andeuthanize the animals.

Delta CAO GeorgeHarvie, noting the munici-pality didn’t get a penny ofsupport from the province,said that was highly unac-ceptable.

Another alterative notedby the ministry was to cap-ture and export rabbits tosanctuaries in the United

States, something Deltaofficials weren’t keen oneither.

Harvie said the move toLadner Harbour Park hasgone well and there havebeen no problems reportedthere.

The staff report statedthat because the park issurrounded on three sidesby water, rabbit migrationwould be limited.

“It is likely that many ofthe rabbits have fallen preyto natural predation and,since the rabbits are steril-ized, the remaining popula-tion is expected to declinerapidly,” the report stated.

Delta presented a motionat this year’s Union of B.C.Municipalities conventionrequesting the provinceimplement a province-wideban on the sale of steril-

ized rabbits, which wasendorsed.

Council was told thisweek the civic precinctappears to be largely free ofrabbits. In addition to edu-cation, to further discouragepeople from dropping offtheir unwanted pets, councilthis week also agreed thatstaff bring forward a bylawmaking the abandonment ofrabbits a ticketable offence.

Delta and the provincehave partnered to try andkeep traffic moving in andout of Ladner.

The province announcedWednesday morning anumber of improvementsto the Highway 99 cor-ridor.

“We’re partnering withthe Corporation of Deltato make a difference tosafety and mobility alongthe Highway 99 cor-ridor through the com-munity,” said Ministerof Transportation andInfrastructure Mary Polak.

“This work will reducecongestion, improve safetyfor motorists merging ontothe highway and result inbetter access to areas ofDelta south of Highway99.”

A new off-ramp isplanned at 80th Streetto give drivers travellingsouth on Highway 99another option for access-ing Ladner Trunk Road.

At the MatthewsInterchange, where LadnerTrunk Road crosses

Highway 99, the accel-eration lane for motoristsmerging onto northboundHighway 99 is slated forsome improvements.

As well, the intersec-tions of Ladner TrunkRoad and Hornby Driveand Trunk Road and 96thStreet will be widened tofour lanes to improve traf-fic flow and reduce con-gestion.

The engineering anddesign work is alreadyunderway. Constructionis expected to begin earlynext year and should becomplete by spring 2014.

The total cost of theimprovements is $7 mil-lion and will be split 50/50between the two levels ofgovernment.

Mayor Lois Jacksonsaid Delta’s portion willcome from a developmentfund and no local taxpayermoney will go into theproject.

“We are pleased tohave the opportunity towork with the province toundertake these importantenhancements to the localhighway network,” saidJackson.

If you see Guy Gentner,buy the man a beer.

After serving North Deltaas its MLA since 2005— and as a Delta munici-pal councillor for six yearsprior to that — Gentner’searned a jug or two.

The veteran NewDemocrat MLA has decid-ed to retire from politicsafter serving his term andwon’t be running in nextMay’s provincial election.

“I do look forward todrinking pilsner in Prague,”he declared. “Start myadventures there.

“I can’t see myself beinga 60-something politician,as a career. I still see myselfbeing an activist somehow,”said Gentner, 57.

He won’t venture thetypical “never say never”comment you hear frommost “retiring” politiciansabout seeking some otherpolitical office.

“I’m kind of the opinionI’m done,” Gentner said.“There’s still enough roomin my life to try somethingdifferent. I’ve been con-sumed by politics. I think

one of the difficulties I’mhaving is losing the fire inmy belly. And when you getthere, you know it’s time tomove.

“I think the turnstileshave got to turn,” heexplained. “I think us babyboomers have got to passon the reins, so to speak.Generally speaking, in the‘60s we talked the talk, butwe really don’t walk thewalk. It’s time to under-stand the global context;we’ve really in many ways

screwed up this planet andit’s now time for those whoare going to inherit themess to start taking respon-sibility.”

If the NDP wins the nextelection it’s no long shot tosay Gentner would likely bein cabinet. Surprisingly, it’sthe likelihood of an NDPwin that’s helped him makehis decision to bow out.

“That’s one of the rea-sons why it’s time to moveon, too. I think we’re goingto be in good stead in North

Delta. I think for us the barwill be high. For the NDP,the honeymoon will prob-ably be over the day afterthe election.

“If there’s a time for suc-cession planning, I thinkit’s now. I’m pretty sure wecan win the next election inNorth Delta.”

Gentner moved fromRichmond to North Deltain 1982.

He and his wife Shirleyhave two children and threegrandchildren.

A group of local volun-teers is waging a battle toremove an invasive plantspecies that poses a majorthreat to Delta’s environ-mentally sensitive fore-shore.

Volunteers from theRotary Club of Ladnercontinue to comb mud-flats and the foreshore toeradicate a noxious weedcalled Spartina. Most ofthe work to pull over 4,500of the plants was done byhand, not an easy task sinceSpartina forms thick matswith deep reproductiveroots.

After receiving somesupplies from Delta, volun-teers recently got out to digup more of the plants.

“Unfortunately, thebloom in Spartina this yearwas unparalleled from pastyears. We went from aroughly 2,000 plants countto 9,600 in one year,” saidRotary Club of Ladnerpresident Don Burkett,a participant in the B.C.Spartina Working Group.

Spartina is a salt-tolerantcordgrass invasive to the

Pacific Northwest. If leftunchecked, the fast-growingplant, which has the abilityto clone, can impact B.C.’scoast in a variety of ways.It can significantly decreasehabitat for shorebirds,waterfowl, fish and shell-fish, as well as disrupt theecology, structure and func-tion of intertidal habitats.

Left uncontrolled, theinvasive grasses will likelyspread in distribution anddensity across tens of thou-sands of hectares, accord-ing to the B.C. Ministry ofEnvironment.

There are several typesof Spartina, and one type,Spartina anglica, com-monly known as Englishcordgrass, was discoveredduring an intertidal marshsurvey of Roberts Bank in2003.

Following that discovery,several agencies, includ-ing Ducks Unlimited andPort Metro Vancouver, gottogether to form a commit-tee to monitor and removethe plants.

Neither herbicides norpesticides have been usedin this province yet to fightthe plant. Burkett said mostof the removal the work so

far has been done by hand,although an excavator hasbeen used on occasion.

“The vast majority of theoutbreak (Spatina anglica)is in Delta, and the RobertsBank side by the ferryslip is heavily infested andBoundary Bay all around to

Mud Bay is heavily infest-ed,” Burkett said.

The plant can be intro-duced by several means,including currents, buttrying to figure out how itarrived isn’t as importantnow as getting a handleon the situation before it

spreads, Burkett said.“It’s a noxious plant,

which means it’s one of thehighest threats of an inva-sive species. It’s been play-ing out its game in most ofthe world where it’s arrivedand it basically crept uphere from California. Thedevastation in California isoverwhelming.”

The larger plants canbe extremely difficult toremove by hand, promptingthe need for heavy equip-ment.

In a presentation toDelta council Monday,Dan Buffet, a biologist andproject manager with DucksUnlimited, noted they hadmade significant progressby 2005 and 2006, but inthe last couple of years theplant has made a vigorouscomeback due to limitedfunding preventing theworking group from hiringexcavators.

Following the model usedin Washington state, whereremoval of the plants wasapproached through the useof herbicides, as well asmanual removal, Buffet saidthe working group is nowrecommending the use of aherbicide.

The private informa-tion of students was madeaccessible online in whatDelta school district offi-cials are describing as an“Internet error in combi-nation with a program-ming error.”

The error, whichtook place on Oct. 23,allowed a parent using thedistrict’s Parent Connectsystem to access theprivate information ofstudents stored in the sys-tem. Parent Connect is anonline service that allowsparents to check theirchild’s grades.

According to a release,the error came aboutwhen the Parent Connectsite “lost” the parent’slog-in information, grant-ing full access to thesystem. The error wasimmediately reported tothe district by the parentand fixed two hours later.

The information avail-able included birthdates,birth certificate numbers,contact information,CareCard numbers andmedical alerts, amongother data. According tothe district, the parentconfirmed she did notreview, copy or redistrib-ute the information.

Malls morethan just aconcept

TEDMURPHY

MURPHY’SLAW

Did a part of you wonder whether themega malls proposed by the TsawwassenFirst Nation would ever become a real-ity?

The malls are so large, and so unlikeanything else in South Delta’s com-mercial sectors, that the idea of buildingalmost two million square feet of retailspace in these parts seemed more than alittle surreal. Throw in the fact not muchhas happened, at least not publicly, sinceplans for the malls were unveiled abouta year-and-a-half ago and it wasn’t astretch to question whether the projectwould ever amount to anything morethan an artist’s rendering.

That doubt had nothing to do with theTFN or its development partners, but wasa natural reaction to any undertaking ofthat magnitude, particularly one that’sproposed for an area not known for itscommercial offerings.

It’s one thing to conceive the idea, butit’s quite another to bring it to fruition,what with constantly changing marketconditions and investors that can get coldfeet, can’t come up with the necessarycapital or find other priorities for theirmoney.

Again, that’s not meant as a slight toany of the parties in the mall deals, it’sjust that while all involved were doingtheir due diligence behind closed doors,it gave those of us on the outside timefor our minds to race. It’s been a whileand we haven’t heard anything, so do youthink the plans are still on track?

The answer from the TFN has been anunequivocal “yes” when posed with thatquestion, but until the announcement thisweek that site preparation work is begin-ning, there wasn’t any tangible evidencethe malls were anything more than apaper concept.

It should be noted that relocatingdrainage channels and constructing atemporary road are a long way fromopening the doors to a pair of megamalls, so some site prep isn’t going toput all doubts to rest. However, it appearsafter 18 months the TFN and its partners,Ivanhoe Cambridge and the PropertyDevelopment Group, are still on track forthe previously announced 2015 opening.

Should a filling program be followedby the start of construction next year, andthose are two more hurdles the projectmust still clear, then it would take theexceedingly cynical not to come to theconclusion the mega malls will soon be afixture on the South Delta landscape.

With that said, they still have a longway to go, but we’re a year-and-a-half inand it would be difficult to suggest thedevelopers have given us any reason todoubt.

The advertised public meetingon the Southlands took place lastThursday. I was out of town so Iasked a few people that attendedwhat they thought. Their reactioncould be summarized:

• Heavy on the Delta processfor approval (“Delta staff willprovide an overview of the applica-tion”), but very light on what theoutcomes would be (the sketchesof the housing were shown withCentury Group in attendance).

• No real comment from Deltaplanners as to the implicationsfor the lifestyle of residents inTsawwassen.

• Fuzzy responses on traffic— only Century’s data was shownand no implications for cumulativeeffect from TFN retail, etc.

• Delta staff did not write downquestions to which they could notanswer.

• Very little about what will hap-pen to 80 per cent of property.

• A full Century team was pres-

ent and they “intimidated” somethat wanted to, but feared, askingquestions.

• The open meeting was a brief-ing, where questions from the floorhad to wait until people were ableto approach Delta staff one by one.So no town hall-style of meeting.

Some said it was not a Deltainformation meeting as the sub-stance of what will happen wassolely that of the glossy words ofthe proponent. No commentary onimpact by staff.

In teasing out what is reallygoing on, the staff did release (withlast-minute revisions) a reportlooking at what will be needed forflood proofing. To bring the readerup to date, the land is at sea leveland under emerging B.C. guide-lines any housing must be built onfill to raise the land. All of this isdue to forecasted sea level rise overthe next 50 to 100 years in Delta.

To summarize hundreds of pagesof reports, either a dike must bebuilt around Boundary Bay, whichhas been resisted by many hom-eowners, or a 15-foot dike mustbe built around the housing beingproposed.

If just around the new houses,the consultant indicates 142,000truckloads of fill are needed.Allowing for return trips, we arelooking at 300,000 trucks up anddown 56th Street! No comment

from staff as to whether the streetcan handle this. Still feel safecrossing the street?

I have been a proponent of farm-ing on farmland for decades anddo not change now in the light ofthis proposal. What’s wrong withkeeping all 540 acres for farming?Just because someone bought theland does not change its value orpurpose.

Removing good farmland forhousing is unnecessary and ourgrandchildren will admonish uswhen they realize what we havebeen doing. There is enough landalready within the Tsawwassenboundaries to accommodate theextra housing that is needed andwill be demanded over time.

We live on one-fifth of an acre,large enough for a septic field.Now houses are being built on one-third of the land and do quite well.

The town centre contains 33acres net of roads, or if you wish,about 1.4 million square feet. Mostof the land is now zoned to allowsix storeys, which translates toeight million square feet of retail,commercial, institutional, park-ing and residential. One thousandhomes, at 1,000-square-feet perhome, would take up only one mil-lion of that total.

So I say concentrate housing inthe existing town centre and leavethe farmland for farming.

Enough land in town centre toaccommodate housing needs

Letters to the Editor

Editor:Re: Plenty of pioneers

after which to name a newcrossing, letter to the editor,

Oct. 24Another motor vehicle

crossing in itself is not theanswer.

We must design it inkeeping with some form ofrapid transit and high-speedrail. We must design it tohave the least detrimentaleffect on the ecosystem ofthe Fraser River just as theGeorge Massey Tunnel wasdesigned.

The Fraser River cannotbe just a deep, cement-linedditch that will allow deep-sea ships to dock at NewWestminster and the Fraser-Surrey docks. We alreadyhave a deep-sea port atRoberts Bank and we don’tneed another one.

The Fraser River is thegreatest salmon-bearingriver in the world and hasbeen recognized as suchby the Ramsar designation.Not only does it provide themeans for the migration ofsalmon, but the nutrients

at its mouth sustain manyshellfish and other species.

The other point of theletter regarding not nam-ing a new river crossingafter some political hack, Iwould hope Cliff Matson isnot suggesting my father,George Massey, was apolitical hack. He was farfrom it.

Seventy-five years agomy father came to Deltaand built a successfulmarine repair business. Hededicated his life to get-ting a better crossing of the

Fraser River, and died of amassive stroke eight daysafter the Deas Island Tunnelwas built.

In 1967, although Mr.Deas contributed to thedevelopment of Delta asmany others did, it was feltby many the tunnel shouldbe renamed after GeorgeMassey in appreciation ofhis two decades fighting forits construction, not becausehe served as MLA for Deltain 1956 in the Social Creditgovernment.

Doug Massey

Editor:Re: Feds didn’t refuse to

Roberts Bank to Ramsar,letter to the editor, Oct. 26

It is absolutely evidentthe work done by our MP,the Corporation of Delta,Metro Vancouver and manyother organizations overthe years resulted in thesuccessful and outstandingRamsar designation of theFraser River wetlands. Iwholeheartedly congratu-late everyone involved fortheir role in achieving thisextraordinary level of rec-

ognition for these sensitiveand important habitats.

But it is also a fact thatcertain agencies and gov-ernments refused to includethe Roberts Bank WildlifeManagement Area in thedesignation: even the listoutlined by our MP clearlyshows it was not includedin the application.

My information is thatthe “landowner” mustagree and in this instancethere was no support for aRamsar application, whichincluded Roberts Bank, by

Port Metro Vancouver or,obviously, the province,which surely ought to haveincorporated its own wild-life management area.

It is my contention thatboth the federal and provin-cial governments failed torequire their agencies (PortMetro Vancouver beingone) to support the inclu-sion of Roberts Bank in thequest for Ramsar designa-tion.

My failure to adequatelyexpress that position isregrettable and I want to

assure all parties that I holdtheir successful achieve-ment in the highest regard.

What began as back painturned into a medical night-mare for the wife of a localfirefighter.

At the beginning of June,Jennifer Rumley, who ismarried to Delta firefighterMike Bjarnason, startedhaving nerve pain in herback. She went to the doc-tor, who suspected shemight have picked up acase of shingles at LangleyMemorial Hospital whereshe works as a physiothera-pist. Rumley was given aprescription and sent on herway.

The couple went campingin Osoyoos with their twoyoung children, Kaitlyn,5, and Cameron, 3, butthe pain continued andincreased.

When the family returnedhome, she went back to thedoctor, who ordered an X-ray. Rumley said she wastold it would take six daysto get the results. With thepain increasing, she decidedto see a chiropractor to tryto find the source of herpain and some relief.

Still in pain and look-

ing for answers, Rumleyreturned to work at the endof June. By this time, shesaid, her left leg startedgoing numb and she waslimping. She said she con-tinued working that weekbecause the unit was shortstaffed but by Friday sheknew something was seri-ously wrong.

She said she left workthat afternoon, went home,packed a bag and returnedto the hospital’s emergencydepartment.

“I knew I would beadmitted to the hospital,”she said, adding she packedfor a week away from homeand even parked down thehill from the hospital andwalked into the emergencyroom to avoid the parkingfees.

It was the Friday of theCanada Day long weekendand the emergency roomwas packed. Rumley saidshe arrived at 4 p.m. butdid not see a doctor untilmidnight.

“I was in so much painthat I basically had tearsrolling down my face,” shesaid, but with so many otherpeople waiting, her case didnot seem any more urgent.

She was admitted andsent for a CT scan.

After further examinationand no concrete answers,she was then sent toVancouver General Hospitalon July 1 for an MRI. Oncethere, “pretty well all hellbroke loose,” she said.

Rumley’s pain level wasout of control.

“I felt like I was being liton fire,” she said.

Through the excruciatingpain, she had to lie still for45 minutes while the MRI

was done. It was almostimmediately discovered shehad a bleed in her spinalcord due to a venous mal-formation — a bundle ofblood vessels that wouldhave been present sincebirth.

She was admitted tothe hospital’s spinal cordunit. Every four hours shewas given a “pin prick”test to monitor the feelingin her legs and she beganrehabilitation. At first, shewas able to walk 40 metres

at a time, but as the daysprogressed she was able tocover shorter and shorterdistances. After six days atVGH, on the couple’s wed-ding anniversary, her legsstopped working.

Rumley said it’s unclearexactly what caused theblood vessels to start bleed-ing.

“I think it’s the luck ofthe draw,” she said.

After two weeks at VGHshe was transferred theG.F. Strong RehabilitationCentre where she beganlearning how to use herwheelchair. She remainedthere until Sept. 21 whenshe was finally able to gohome.

The family has sincemoved into a one-levelcondo and is currently look-ing for a home that will suittheir new needs. Rumleysaid she had little time toadjust to her new surround-ings and way of life, withtwo young children enter-ing kindergarten and pre-school.

She’s made it work,she said, with help andsupport from friends andfamily, as well as supportfrom Bjarnason’s fellow

firefighters and LangleyMemorial Hospital.

Earlier this month,friends held a fundraiser forthe family and about 200people showed up.

“I was just blown away,”she said.

Delta firefighters areputting on a fundraiserat Shady Island Pub inRichmond tonight (Nov. 2)from 4:30 to 11 p.m.

Tickets cost $40 each andinclude a burger, fries anda beer. There will also be a50/50 draw and other priz-es. Tickets can be purchasedat any Delta fire hall.

Rumley is still not ableto drive. She is currentlywaiting to go through driverrehab training and the cou-ple still needs to outfit theirvan with a lift and othermodifications needed.

Rumley, who is alsotrained as an occupationaltherapist, said her profes-sional background hashelped her maintain a posi-tive attitude about the situ-ation.

“I think I would be in amuch more sad state,” shesaid if she did not have theknowledge she does. “I doknow the possibilities.”

MHalloween, the day we pretend to

be something we are not.It has always amazed me at how

intricate the costumes become eachyear. I have seen witches, zombies,nurses, Victorian and even fruit cos-tumes. There are costumes that werestore bought and costumes that weremade.

I remember dressing up one yearas Superman and another year as abiker because they seemed to take noguff from anyone, and for one night Icould be someone else.

Every Halloween I am remindedof conversations from people, usuallyoutside the church, who say, “Whywould I want to join a bunch of peo-ple who pretend they are somethingthey are not?”

When I ask what they mean, theyoften say, “It’s like they put on amask on Sundays, and the rest of theweek they are just like everyone elsewho sin and do bad things.”

I often find myself smiling, notbecause I think they are naïve, butbecause I agree. It does look thatway.

What I explain is, yes, it appearsthis way but in reality when at churchwe are reminded that all of us havesinned. All of us, myself included.The difference is we realize God alsosaved us and forgives us our sins bywhat His Son Jesus did for us on thecross.

We are not pretending to be some-thing we are not; we are sinners, weare simply forgiven sinners.

Ladner’s Cedar ParkChurch will be hosting itsown version of The HungerGames next week.

Set for Thursday, Nov.8 from 7 to 9:30 p.m., TheHunger Games will be aninteractive, educational eve-ning where participants willlearn about world hunger,as well as what they can doto help alleviate it, througha series of engaging activi-ties and presentations.

Admission is free, butthose attending are asked tobring a donation to the foodbank.

The evening will be bro-ken down into three of themain causes of world hun-ger: poverty, natural disas-ters and over-exploitation of

the environment. For eachcause, the event will discusshow it contributes to hungerand what people can doto lessen the effect, with afocus on personal lifestylechoices.

Rather than teachthrough typical methodssuch as PowerPoint presen-tations, participants willplay games that serve asdemonstrations, and thenhave brief discussions aftereach game to clarify thefacts presented.

The idea for the eventcame about when BraedenSaucy and friend TessaBartz were discussinguniversity courses for thesemester.

Bartz is enrolled in a

nutrition course at UBC,where her primary assign-ment is to, in some way,take action against worldhunger. Saucy is enrolledin a couple of classes atKwantlen PolytechnicUniversity which arefocused on creativity andgroup facilitation, and offeralmost unlimited flexibilityin choosing a project.

Together they decided toput on an event to wouldnot only raise awarenessabout world hunger, butalso challenge the conven-tional means of informingand educating people.

For more information,e-mail [email protected] or call thechurch at 604-946-7410.

Have you ever felt itwould be gratifying to seeyour personal trainer sweatas hard as they make yousweat? Clients recently gota chance to do this at NewDay Personal Training andFitness, raising funds for alocal cause in the process.

New Day hosted a uniquefundraiser called Train theTrainer Day. Clients had achance to put their trainerthrough the vigorous train-ing exercises by makinga donation to the Delta

Hospice Society.When asked how he

came up with the idea,owner Terry Day said, “Thisis an activity I have beeninvolved with in the pastwith other organizations fordifferent charities. We want-ed a local community char-ity that we could supportannually and felt the DeltaHospice Society would be agood fit.”

The event raised $1,225for Delta Hospice.

“This was a really great

idea for a fundraiser,” saidDelta Hospice executivedirector Nancy Macey. “Wefeel very fortunate to bechosen to receive the pro-ceeds from this and hopeeveryone had a great work-out that day.”

The Delta HospiceSociety operates the Harold& Veronica Savage Centrefor Supportive Care andthe Irene Thomas Hospicein Ladner and the HospiceCottage Charity Shoppe inTsawwassen.

HOMEINSURANCEWITH

EDWARDMACADAM

Following the events ofthe past weekend, B.C.

residents are advised to considerthe consequences of an earthquakeand review their insurance coverageto ensure protection against suchdisasters.

Generally, earthquakes are notcovered by basic home insurance,and BCAA suggests keeping thefollowing things in mind when addingearthquake coverage to your policy:

• Mild earthquakes can causemajor damage. A slight shift in yourfoundation can result in repairs thatmay cost more than your earthquakeinsurance deductible.

• Understand the risk. While anynatural disaster is difficult to predict,small- to medium-size earthquakesare common in B.C. and more than1,200 are recorded annually.

•Decide what you want covered. Youcan choose to cover your buildingonly or include your contents as well.Coverage costs will depend on thevalue of your home/possessions,location, or the earthquake deductibleyou choose.

• Cost of additional living expenses.Earthquake insurance covers a rangeof additional living expenses incurredin the event it is unsafe to stay in yourhome.

• Replacement costs can add up.Replacing one or two belongingsmay be manageable, but collectivelyreplacing contents bought over alifetime all at once can be prohibitively

expensive and even more than yourdeductible.

• Don’t go through it alone. Yourinsurance company should bereachable day or night, and have theresources to help you by arrangingprofessional assistance and support.

BCAA encourages homeownersand families to develop anemergency preparedness plan,practice emergency drills, andkeep an emergency kit on hand.For more information on earthquakepreparedness visit publicsafety.gc.caor visit bcaa.com/earthquake.

There’s no way to predict when anatural disaster will occur, but if youunderstand the risk and take the rightprecautions you can enjoy peace-of-mind, knowing you’re as prepared aspossible.

Contact BCAA to learn moreabout earthquake insurance and todiscuss the options available to you.No-one can prevent disasters, butour Insurance Specialists take thetime to get to know you better so youget the coverage that’s right for you.

Is your home insuranceearthquake ready?

Adventure at any ageLocal man creates online community for the 40-plus crowd

Tsawwassen resident ScottArmstrong has created an onlinecommunity aimed at staying activeand engaged no matter how many

candles are on your birthday cake.AdventureFive-0.com is a free site that

allows like-minded individuals from aroundthe world, or around the corner, to connect.

The site went live two months ago andwas officially launched just last week.There is already a group of members plan-ning a trip to climb Mount Kilimanjaronext year.

The site isn’t all about physical extremes,he said, it’s about encouraging people inthe 40-plus-age bracket to continue to pushboundaries — adventure, fitness and phi-lanthropy.

“It celebrates remarkable achievementsthat defy aging,” he said.

Armstrong, 50, said the motivation forthe project is a personal one.

“I see, we all see, individuals who areaging faster than they necessarily need to. Ihave friends who carry the extra weight, arebecoming diabetic and scoff when I men-tion an adventurous outing.”

Membership with AdventureFive-0.comis free and there is no advertising on thesite. Once signed up, members can create

and post their “bucket list” and search forand connect with members who have simi-lar interests.

The site alsoincludes regularposts with fitnessand diet tips, gearrecommendationsand inspirationalstories — likethe one about awoman in her 90sfrom Toronto whocontinues to teachyoga.

Armstrong saidthere is a substan-tial amount ofresearch out therethat supports thetheory that peoplewho continue totry new things,challenge them-selves and getnew stimuli totheir brains andbodies live lon-ger and have ahigher quality oflife through both better health and mentalacuity.

He said he saw this firsthand back in thelate 1980s and early ‘90s when he ran a

wildlife sanctuary. As part of that, he wouldtake some of the animals out to events,

including visitsto seniors’ carehome.

He said manytimes he wouldsee a glimmer ofsomeone’s spiritbut their bodyhad essentiallygiven up.

“Here, whenwe’re older weresort to comfortzones,” he said.

Many of theactivities becomequite sedentaryand people whoare active in theiryounger yearsstart to shy awayfrom those sameactivities as theyage.

Armstrong saidbeing active asyou age is moreabout just staying

in the game than breaking records or set-ting personal bests.

“We’re capable of a lot more than wethink,” he said. “AdventureFive-0 is not just

about physical fitness, it’s an attitude.”Armstrong, a former director of entre-

preneurship and corporate training at BCIT,who is now a professional speaker in thearea of business strategy, entrepreneur-ship and motivation, and a group of eightother AdventureFive-0 members recentlycompleted Tough Mudder, an 18-kilometreobstacle course race designed by BritishSpecial Forces in Seattle.

Participants are challenged with a varietyof physical obstacles while running alongthe course. Tough Mudder races are heldaround the world and the group also tookon the one in Whistler earlier in the sum-mer.

He said most of the people in the groupare over 50 and the team stuck together andhelped each other get to the end.

It’s been more than a month since therace and “we are all still experiencingeuphoria from our accomplishment and thefun we had,” he said.

“You feel like you can accomplish any-thing in any aspect of your life.”

So far, he said, AdventureFive-0 hassigned up 200 members. His goal is tohave 1,000 members by March and to havea member on every continent, although,he said, he’s not holding out hope forAntarctica.

For more information aboutAdventureFive-0 visit www.adventurefive-0.com.

The benefits of rolling it out

How many of youstretched afteryour last work-out? Yeah, even

if I could see a show ofhands, I think that showingwould be slim.

I, too, am guilty of skip-ping the stretch part of myworkout. Although I knowit’s good for me, some-times even us trainers don’talways do what’s expectedof us.

One thing I have foundto help offset my lack ofstretching, though, is roll-ing.

While I may not have thetime right after my workoutfor those pesky, good-for-me stretches, I always havesome spare time in the eve-ning to roll out my tired andshortened muscles.

A lot of people haveheard of foam rolling,which is awesome. Foamrolling is a form of myofas-cial release, which is just afancy word for working outthe kinks and knots in themuscles.

While foam is one of themore popular ways to rollthe muscles of the body,I much prefer the TravelRoller as my human rollingpin.

I took a course with thedevelopers a few years ago,and their workshop hasalways stayed with me.

First off, most foam roll-ers are too large for ourbodies, and the act of roll-ing on them will actuallydo more harm to the musclecell than good. A TravelRoller, on the other hand, isergonomically correct to fitall users (as long as you areunder 6’5”).

Second, foam will breakdown, losing its compres-sion and shape over time. ATravel Roller, on the otherhand, will not. The inside

cylinder, or core, is made ofeco-friendly plastic, envel-oped with a lightly paddedsheaf.

Inside the core you willalso find three acupressureballs, varying in density.Foam rollers don’t have afancy compartment likethat.

Apparently, you can evenstore a bottle of wine insideyour Travel Roller. Not sureif I recommend drinkingand rolling, but it’s neatparty trick nonetheless.

The Travel Roller is alsodesigned for... well, travel.Yes, it is small enough toeasily pack in your suitcase,which is kind of cool.

It’s like bringing yourown personal massage ther-apist on vacation with you.

Other benefits to rollingare:

• Increased blood flowthroughout the body, mak-ing this a great warm-uptool as well.

• Rolling, on a regularbasis, will also help preventinjuries. I thank my lucky

stars for the day I met theTravel Roller. It has notonly helped me to stayloose, but has also helpedme to continue training likea frenzied banshee — wellinto my 40s.

• Rolling has also provento be successful in improv-ing an athlete’s balance,coordination and stamina.So, if it can work on anathlete, just think of what itcan do for us regular folk.

• Finally, rolling will alsohelp improve your spinalalignment and posture.Great news for all youdesk-jockeys out there.

If you are looking to pur-chase a Travel Roller, checkout Fitness Town (www.fitnesstown.ca) or TravelRoller’s own website formore information (www.travelroller.com).

Bee doc showingin North Delta

The Earthwise Societyis hosting a screening ofVanishing of the Bees nextmonth at Firehall Centre forthe Arts in North Delta.

Set for Wednesday, Nov.7 at 7 p.m., the documenta-ry will detail the disastrouseffects the disappearance ofbees would have on our dietand what people can do tohelp prevent bees from dis-appearing.

Many bee species areendangered and vanishing.Without pollinators, such asbees, we stand to lose one-third of the food in our diet.

Agricultural systemswould be hard hit becausewithout bees, crops such asblueberries and cranberriescannot produce fruit. Manyplants that produce gourds,such as melons and squash-es, are also dependent onbees for propagation, mak-ing bees a keystone species.

In response to this seri-ous situation, the EarthwiseSociety and the Delta

Chamber of Commercehave instituted the Feedthe Bees program. Thisprogram encourages indi-viduals to include plants intheir gardens that providea continuous source of pol-len and nectar to ensure thehealth of bee populations.

Earthwise Society canprovide help and adviceto gardeners interested inenhancing their gardensfor bees. Gardeners areencouraged to register theirbee-friendly garden withthe program to receive lawnsignage in recognition oftheir participation.

Seating is limited at thisscreening of Vanishing ofthe Bees. Tickets are $5 inadvance or $10 at the door.For more information aboutthe screening and the Feedthe Bees program, contactEarthwise Society at 604-946-9828 (ask for Joni),[email protected] or www.earthwiseso-ciety.bc.ca.

The 14 women sit at tables arranged in asquare. They come from a variety of back-grounds, some from different communities,but there is one common thread that bindsthem — they are all mothers or grandmoth-ers of addicts.

Their individual stories might be dif-ferent, but when one speaks of her experi-ences struggling to find help for her drug-addicted son, the others nod and look onwith eyes that have seen the same pain.

The 12 mothers and two grandmothersmet at the Little House in Tsawwassen fortwo Saturdays recently as the Little HouseSociety presented its second installment ofthe Heart of a Mother workshop.

The society first presented the seminar inthe spring of last year.

“Having this resource is hope,” saysBarbara (real names not used in this story),who just that week came to the realizationshe had to ask her son to move out of herTsawwassen home.

He is addicted to crack cocaine andwhile he’s been in and out of recovery overthe years, the 27-year-old is using again.He started drinking and using drugs at ayoung age and by 15 he was an addict.

“I knew I had to tell my son he had tomove out,” she says with tears in her eyes.

It’s been a rough week. It’s Saturday.He left on Tuesday and she doesn’t knowwhere he is, what he’s doing or if he’s safe.

Addiction is not unfamiliar territory forthe mother and grandmother. She’s hadmany other family members fall victim tothe disease but with her son it’s different.

“When it’s your child, it’s 100 timesharder,” she says.

By nature, mothers do whatever they canto protect their children, make their paththrough life a little easier and worry abouttheir health and well being.

Mothers with children struggling witha dependency on drugs or alcohol are nodifferent but the pain and stress they feelfrom the constant worry and not being ableto “fix” their child’s problem is overwhelm-ing.

Ellen knows that stress all too well. Shewas one of two mothers who travelled fromVancouver Island to take part in the Heartof a Mother workshops.

Her 20-year-old son is addicted to crack.He also started using and abusing drugsand alcohol at a young age. She says hefirst started using at 11 and by 13 wasblacking out. He recently agreed to seekhelp, entered treatment two weeks ago, butit took eight years to get there.

The stress started to affect Ellen physi-cally.

“The last two weeks have been like twoyears because he’s been safe,” she says. “Ifound my life back and my heart stoppedpalpitating. I was under tremendous stress.”

Alana also felt the physical effects ofthe stress she has endured due to her son’saddiction.

“I ended up with breast cancer last yearand it’s not in my family,” she says, “and Ibelieve it’s totally related to the stress I’vebeen going through over the past six years.It just feels like it should never have hap-pened.”

Her youngest son has been strugglingwith addiction for the past six years.

“It [the cancer diagnosis] was just anindicator that this is not going well,” shesays.

Alana also travelled from her home onVancouver Island to attend the Heart of aMother sessions at Little House. Both herand Ellen say they wish their own commu-nities had a similar resource available.

“Places like this don’t exist anywhere inVictoria and it’s really sad that they don’tbecause it’s been about eight years of strug-gling to find somewhere to get him help,”Ellen says. “You can’t just walk in off thestreet in Victoria and see something likethis.”

While the Little House doesn’t offertreatment for people struggling with sub-stance abuse and addiction, it does host anumber of support group meetings, as wellas resources and education for people look-ing for help.

Little House Society president JimStimson says the group has several aims:to offer a helping hand to addicts and thosein recovery, support for families, as wellas education to help prevent the problem

before it begins.“People do not understand how this

abuse/addiction issue tears apart everysingle thread in the seams of family togeth-erness,” he says. “It just destroys everyseam.”

Little House, through sessions like Heartof a Mother, is trying to offer the tools tohelp repair, or prevent, some of the devasta-tion.

Stimson says the decision was madeto offer the second round of Heart of a

Mother seminars because the society wasreceiving requests for it from mothers inthe community. Little House has decidedto offer the workshops quarterly and is alsolooking at offering similar programs forother family members.

Barbara says she does not know what thefuture holds for her son, but the sessionshave brought her hope and helped start thehealing process. She says she feels like shewill be better able to handle whatever hap-

pens.“I feel like I’m going home with a tool-

box,” she says.For Ellen, the sessions have helped bring

her a newfound strength to take on the nextleg of the journey as her son enters treat-ment.

“I could never take on the letting go thatI’m about to do and the letting go that I’vedone in the last little while without the sup-port and without the direction.”

The strong bond between the mothersis obvious after just two sessions together.They agree that sharing and being aroundother people, who are in the same positionand have been through similar experiences,has been healing.

That support between the mothers iscritical, Stimson says.

“It was so powerfully healing for me inthere and the depth of feeling that peoplegave. Enlightenment. There was so muchhappening in there,” Nancy says of the ses-sions.

A single mom from Tsawwassen,Nancy’s 27-year-old son is a recoveringmeth addict. His problems began early withmarijuana.

“When he was 11, I didn’t see thathe was smoking dope,” she says. “I justthought with the complexity of his learn-ing disability it was getting more stressfulat school, and I didn’t catch it,” she saysthrough tears.

Catherine, who just found out in thespring that her 24-year-old son was dealingwith a cocaine addiction, says she’s foundhope through the Little House.

She says the news of her son’s addictionwas a complete surprise and the family hadno idea where to go for help.

Her son attends support group meetingsthere and, she says, she found the two-dayworkshop “astounding” educationally andemotionally

“This was a much needed education forhelping me help myself through this,” saysthe Ladner resident.

The heart of this mother is heavyThe heart of this mother is weepingShe surrendered her son unto GodAnd into His hands for the keeping

She knows not where he is goingOr if safety will be his friendStill she helps him carry his things

down the hallWith no guarantee as to how it will end

His room and their hearts are justempty

And he just wants to linger awhileHe knows he must go and she wants to

give inIt’s a reach down deep for a smile

They both try to be strong while achinginside

As they hug at the kitchen doorNo survivors today, their all washed

away

By the tears that cover the floor

This surrender is hardAs she completely lets goDetaches, sets her boundariesGives up all control

She knows that it’s timeIn fact, long overdueHe must choose his own pathAnd so she must too

She just needs to love himAnd learn all she canGet out of the wayLet him be his own man

The heart of this mother is gratefulThat in her community residesA “Little House” of recoveryWhere healing and hope abides

Candles and lights are an easy way to add a little holiday glow to any room

Tips to bring a festivetouch to the home

Aaah, the holidays... thetime of the year we treatothers and ourselves toa feast for the senses.Here are a few quick andeasy decorating tips forthe season.

It all begins at the frontdoor so let’s make it spe-cial. Idea: fresh seasonalboughs and holly brimmingout of vintage cast iron orconcrete urns. For many,taking out the decorationsand the festive lights evokesstrong feelings of nostalgia.

However it is always fun toadd a few new decorationsand expand your collection.Note of caution: Pleasecheck your lights if you areputting them on a live tree.You may want to changeover to the newer versions.

Regarding light, this is thetime of year we need toincrease it as much as pos-sible. Simple how to: addingmirrors or repositioningthem to capture and reflect

more light. You can fur-ther enhance the reflectivecapacity by placing a lampor candle and add silver orglass objects in front.

Large collections have awow factor and add depth,warmth and charm to anyhome. Let’s be safe withcandles especially aroundchildren/pets and the elder-ly, please consider the lat-est battery operated remotecontrol candles.

As we head to the dining

room to share our festivemeal think comfortableseating and elbowroomaround the dining table. Thetable setting is the crowningglory and a place to contin-ue your theme for the sea-son... make it spectacular!

Don’t forget the most usedroom in the house: thebathroom where you cancontinue your holiday themewhile providing safe candlelight for ambience and aroom freshener reed dif-fuser for practical purposes.You will want to see every-one relaxed and enjoyingthemselves so make sureyou can offer a comfortablesofa and chairs.

A quick update would benew toss pillows and cozythrow. You can do the samefor bedrooms and both areeasy ways to upgrade with-out overspending.

Hot holiday trends are coming in small packages this year

Festive decorating ona smaller scale

Living in a condominium,townhome or apartmentshouldn’t mean you haveto forgo festive holidaydecorating. Experts inthis field claim some ofthis year’s hottest holi-day trends come in verysmall packages.

Here, a lot of that legworkis done to help you createyour very own Christmas inCondoland.

Interior decorators recom-mend utilizing as much ofyour existing home décoras possible. This includesmaking use of your currentcolour scheme to achievea festive impact. Holidaydécor is no longer limitedto the traditional greenand red; many decorationsare available in a range ofcolours that will match orcomplement your colourpallet, including neutrals,metallics and bolder tones.

Brighten hanging picturesby swapping the cur-rent image with ones thatcapture a special holidaymoment and attach someevergreen to the top of theframe as an accent. Replaceexisting accent pillows, aswell as throw blankets andbathroom, kitchen and din-ing linens, with ones thatare holiday themed.

As an added touch, breakout festive dishware andkeep it on display through-out the season.

Karen Sortino, a homeorganization specialist fromLowe’s Home Improvement,suggests when dealing witha small space to considerusing the parameter of yourliving quarters, rather thancluttering living space byadding décor items that mayget in the way.

“Hanging wreaths andgarlands to walls, windowwells and frames is easy toaccomplish, and requires norearranging. Monogrammedhooks can be installed tem-porarily to hang stockingsor wreaths to your walls andmantles, and crystals orornaments can be dangledfrom ceilings using ribbonor clear fishing wire.”

Despite all of these options,many people insist that put-ting up a Christmas treeis essential to fosteringholiday spirit. Fortunately,there are many options suchas miniature trees (naturalor artificial), tabletop treesand half trees that sit flushagainst your wall. Thereare even peel and stickChristmas tree wall decals.

If you have a balcony orsolarium, consider putting a

tree outside and using out-door lights.

This will free up some livingspace, and will look beauti-ful when dusted with a lightcoating of snow.

IT’S POSSIBLE TO BRING A FESTIVE TOUCH TO EVEN THE SMALLEST SPACES. HANGING WREATHS ORGARLANDS IS AN EASY WAY TO DECORATE FOR THE HOLIDAYS WITHOUT TAKING UP TOO MUCH EXTRASPACE.

Hosting tips for holiday partiesThe holidays are themost festive time of theyear, and no holidayseason is complete with-

out a party or two withfamily and friends. Be itto celebrate a religiousholiday or to ring in thenew year, a holiday partyis an essential elementto the holiday season.

While it’s always great tobe a guest, hosting a holi-day party is a great way toshow friends and familyhow much they mean toyou. This holiday season,consider the following tipsto ensure your holiday partyis as memorable as the sea-son is merry:

• Make it a themed party.The holiday season is filledwith festivities, from officeparties to neighbourhoodgatherings. For more casualaffairs, set your party apartwith a theme. For example,a Christmas sweater party,where each guest wears aChristmas sweater, can be afun way to excite guests and

inspire a few laughs. Give aprize to the guest with themost ornate sweater.

If sweaters aren’t yourthing, then encourageguests to dress up likesome favourite holidaycharacters, including SantaClaus, Frosty the Snowmanor even Rudolph.

• Don’t forget the holidayfare. Just like parties are astaple of the holiday season,so, too, are certain foodsand types of music.

Few people indulge in someeggnog outside of the holi-day season, so make surethere’s plenty of eggnog onhand. And don’t forget thegingerbread cookies, either.

As people enjoy holidaygoodies, make sure theydo so with holiday musicplaying in the background.Choose songs that guestsknow and to which they

can sing along. Such sing-alongs might becomeespecially memorable onceguests have a glass or twoof eggnog in them.

• Host a holiday giveaway.Though it can be fun to do aSecret Santa, chances areguests already have enoughgifts to buy. But hosts canspice things up with a holi-day giveaway that rewardsguests.

Host a holiday-themedround of Trivial Pursuit ora holiday movie trivia gamethat encourages guests tocompete for prizes. Prizescan be small and inexpen-sive, but guests will be sureto enjoy some friendly com-petition for holiday-themedprizes.

• Don’t be afraid to take itoutside. While fun in thesnow is often left to thekids, don’t assume adultswon’t enjoy building somesnowmen or a good old-fashioned snowball fight inthe backyard if the weatherpermits.

If outdoor fun is going tobe on the docket, be sureto remind guests to dressappropriately. And makesure there’s plenty of hotchocolate ready once every-one goes back inside towarm up.

• Prearrange transporta-tion home for guests. Asuccessful holiday party isone that is safe, so be sureto prearrange travel homefor guests just in case any-one overindulges in holidaycheer.

When sending out invita-tions, seek volunteers tobe designated drivers andavoid drinking alcoholyourself. For larger parties,call a local taxi service andarrange for a couple of cabsto be on call when the partyends.

DON’T FORGET TO GIVE YOUR HOLIDAYPARTY A LITTLE FESTIVE FLARE TOMAKE IT FEEL EXTRA SPECIAL.

Cheese is always a party crowd pleaserA creative cheese plate isa crowd pleaser during theholidays and better still, itis simple to prepare and itdoesn’t take up any space inyour oven.

These steps will help you cre-ate the perfect cheese platterto surprise your guests withtempting varieties and newtaste experiences:

Get creative with the platter.

A party plate is fine, but youmight also use a wooden board,a slab of marble or a piece ofslate.

Choose a variety of cheeses,including a soft-ripenedcheese, or “bloomy rinds” asthey’re also known. Then, add asemi-soft cheese, like Gouda orhavarti. You’ll also need hard/firm cheeses like manchegoor pecorino. And for moretangy option, add a goat’s milkcheese. Round out the spec-

trum of flavours with a washedrind cheese and a blue cheese.

Get your quantities right. Fora party platter, appetizer ordessert cheese plate, serve asmall crowd three to five typesof cheese and five to 10 typesfor a larger crowd. Calculatefor approximately 30 to 40grams of each cheese per per-son.

Don’t forget the accompani-ments. Fruits like fig, pear and

apple are always enjoyable, butdried fruits work well too. Addunsalted roasted nuts and freshbread and complete your plat-ter with honey, fruit compotesand pickled vegetables.

Serve with care. Always pre-pare your platter in advance,lay out appropriate knives andlet your cheese sit at roomtemperature for at least onehour before serving.

Getting ready forovernight guests

Thousands of people travel far andwide to visit family and friends for theholidays. Chances are many holidayhosts and hostesses will open theirhomes to overnight guests.

There are a number of ways to get ready forholiday guests. Keep these tips in mind asyou prepare your home.

• Set aside space. Not every household hasa spare guest room available, but there areways to make guests feel like they havetheir own private area. There’s the possibil-ity of giving up your own room for the nightor set up a space in an out-of-the-way denor a child’s bedroom. People who live in thehouse may be more comfortable bunkingwith another than an outside guest.

• Offer individual linens. A fresh set ofsheets and towels contributes to a hotel’scomfort level. Welcome guests with a set offresh sheets and soft towels.

• Stock extra toiletries. The holiday seasonis a busy time, and it’s easy for travelers toforget a thing or two. Keep an extra tooth-brush and some spare mouthwash at theready. Travel-sized soaps and shampoosmay be more convenient for guests andmight help them feel more comfortable and

less burdensome staying in your home.

• Accommodate guests’ needs. Someguests may be allergic to certain foods,while others may prefer to watch the late-night news before bed. Find out their pref-erences beforehand so you can do your bestto make them feel comfortable.

• Have laundry services available. Giveguests their own laundry bag so they canwash clothes if they’ll be staying for anextended period of time. Fresh clothesmake anyone feel better.

• Invest in an air mattress. Having extraplaces for guests to sleep often comes inhandy. Air mattresses are easy to inflate ata moment’s notice for an unexpected guestand can be quickly deflated and stored in acloset or under a bed.

• Bend house rules. While certain rules maybe set in stone, bed times or meal timesmay have to be changed to accommodateguests who aren’t used to the goings-on ofthe household.

It can be fun or frustrating to have a gueststay over for the holidays.

But being prepared can make the time goby much more smoothly.

Unique ways to use lightsSometimes white or tinted string lightsare exactly what you need to createthe warm and whimsical mood thatyou long for during the holiday season.Here are three unique ways to usetwinkle lights to achieve a warm andcozy ambience indoors.

“String lights have come a long way overthe past few years” says Rob Rizzi, a fash-ion lighting specialist from Lowe’s HomeImprovement. “Today there are so manyindoor options to choose from includingLED, coloured bulbs, even electrolumines-cents.”

Rizzi suggests wrapping LED string lightsaround the frames of doors, windows, pic-tures and mirrors to help lighten the perim-eter of your room.

“This will help illuminate your surroundingswithout employing direct overhead lights,”he says.

They can also be bunched under sofas,armchairs, and cabinets to create an up-lighting effect.

Generate a warm and romantic ambiance bylooping indoor string lights or net lights (netlights are string lights that are secured toeach other to create a grid effect) over yourwindow curtain rod so they hang behind asheer curtain panel.

This effect is further enhanced by hangingthe lights between an opaque curtain panel

and sheer metallic drapery. Sheer fabricor lace can also be wrapped around stringlights and secured to banisters, mantlesand window wells.

Verify the safety protocols for your lights toensure that it’s safe for them to be in con-tact with fabrics.

Lights help draw attention to focal pointssuch a centerpieces and mantles. Fill vasesor large mason jars with string lights andadd some Christmas balls or small orna-ments to the mix. Frost the glass with alight coating of translucent metallic spraypaint. This will help dim the light throughthe glass and will help enhance the ambi-ance.

When decorating, choosing an overall theme and coordinating colour can really help unite the various areas of the home

Creating a warm, inviting spaceWith only 53 days untilChristmas the thoughtof holiday decorating isbecoming more forefronton people’s minds.

Creating a warm invitingspace for holiday entertain-ing can be achieved witha few key decorating prin-ciples.

Choosing an overall themeis important to unite the dif-ferent spaces of any home.Perhaps a seasonally influ-enced theme such as snow-flakes, candy canes, Santa’s,gingerbread, bows, presentsand gifts. If these seem tooordinary for your taste takeinspiration from anything —peacocks, sports, or tropicalflowers, etc.

After a theme is estab-lished, coordinating a colourscheme is the next step.

This will come quite natu-rally as it is directly influ-enced by the theme. Ifsnowflakes were the selec-tion, the natural colourswould be whites, silvers andblues.If a peacocks theme was the

choice, perhaps teal, greenand purple. These colourscan be incorporated intoelements like tree orna-ments, table setting androom décor.

Once your colours havebeen decided, layering tex-tures and natural elementsbecomes important.This principal applies to

general room décor as well.In order to achieve a warm,comfortable space compli-mentary textures must beutilized or a space can feelcold and hard.

A knitted throw in one of thetheme colours can accenta neutral sofa or chair, andtable linens can add soft-ness to a space.

Introducing items such ascedar boughs add a naturalelement to any space, andthey can be accented withornaments or décor to tieinto the colour and theme.Not to mention they smellterrific!

Scale and proportion are animportant finishing touch todécor in any space — sea-sonal or not. In holidaydecorating keep this in mindparticularly when choosing

elements like Christmastrees. It’s easy to misinter-pret the size of a tree whenit’s out in the open lot, but ifyou determine the ideal sizefor the space before leavinghome you can ensure thescale will be appropriatewhen you return.

When choosing ornamentsfor the tree also considerscale and proportion; varythe size and types for aninteresting look and be sureto incorporate your themeand colours.

Following these simpleprinciples will guide yourdecorating and ensure youhave a coordinated holidaylook.

The Delta Ice Hawks sizzlingstart to the season has got attentionof more than just their opponentsin the Pacific International JuniorHockey League.

Defenceman Mark Whiteley hassigned with the Langley Rivermenof the B.C. Junior Hockey Leagueand he’s not the only one who hasgenerated interested.

BCHL teams are also ask-ing about first-year forward MakBarden, who is second in PIJHLscoring with 32 points in 16 games.The 19-year-old Surrey nativeplayed in the BCHL last season withSalmon Arm where he was limitedto fourth line duty and killing penal-ties. He has flourished in Delta andonce again showing the offensivetouch he enjoyed throughout hisminor hockey career.

“He is coming from a situationthat wasn’t great from him andgetting the opportunity to use hisnatural ability,” said Ice Hawks headcoach Dave McLellan. “He is get-ting the calls already but his thoughtprocess his to play with us for therest of his career then be part of theSFU program. It’s a good decisionfor him as he gets a chance to be aneffective player and to try and wina championship but you still neverknow what kind of opportunitymight come along.”

Whiteley’s departure wasn’t ahuge surprise given he was an affili-ate player with the Rivermen lastseason. He opted not to attend theirtraining camp in August but Langleyknew what it was getting in the19-year-old who has been a steadyfixture on the Delta blueline sincehe was 16.

“It’s great for him and that’s what(this league) is all about,” continuedMcLellan. “This is his last kick ofthe can and he has to make the bestof it.”

The Ice Hawks didn’t have tolook far for another veteran defence-man as 20-year-old Ryan Mana hasrejoined the club following a briefretirement.

The 6-foot-4 Bellingham nativewas mainstay on the blueline duringthe 2010-11 season but left the gameto focus on his studies at WesternWashington University.

Now he’s back for his final yearof junior eligibility. The Ice Hawkshave also signed his 17-year-oldbrother Kyle Mana — another blue-liner.

“You see that happen all the timein junior where a player realizes he

wants to give it one more chance,”added McLellan. “He has jumpedin and played well already and he isnot even in game shape yet.”

The Hawks improved to 13-2-1on the season with a dominating 6-1 victory over Mission on Tuesdaynight. Team captain Alex Martin ledthe way with a pair of goals and oneassist. Michael Olson-Eyre, TannerGattinger, Aaron Merrick andBarden also scored.

Icing...The club also announced

Thursday the signing of South DeltaMinor Hockey graduate MitchWalter.

The 16-year-old forward was asecond round pick (31st overall)of the Edmonton Oil Kings in the2011 WHL Bantam Draft. He was inhis second season with the GreaterVancouver Canadians of the B.C.Major Midget Hockey League.

“We’ve had two closematches with them andthis was one of them,” saidSouth Delta head coach DanBurgess. “The girls continueto play at a pretty high levelas we get closer to the play-offs.”

Setter Emma Robinsonand libero Emma Glennonwere named to the tourna-ment all-star team, while theDevils played without powerhitter Christine Howlett whois sidelined with a fingerinjury. She is expected tomiss the upcoming Fraser

Burgess has said sincethe start of the season that adeep roster is of his squad’sgreatest strengths and it willcertainly be tested in thecoming weeks.

“The depth on our teamwill be key to any success

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Nov. 4 - 10, 2012★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Aries March 21 - April 19: The accent lieson depths, mysteries, lifestyle changes, sexualurges, large finances, partnership finances, andcommitment. It’s an all-or-nothing time. Newrelationships (formed in the last year) either growdeeper, or break apart. Your subconscious risesto the surface, letting you understand or glimpseyour motives, true desires, even your destiny. Startnothing new before Nov. 26. An old flame might“appear” in the ten days ahead; after that, a formerlust object or financial or lifestyle idea might return.If good then, good again. Romance colours Monday-Wednesday.Taurus April 20-May 20: The general accentlies on relationships, opportunities and challenges,cooperation and disunity, allies and enemies.Relocation might appeal. However, do not startanything important, especially in these areas, beforeNov. 26. Until then, a relationship from the past mightre-appear and grow important, presenting you witha choice. Safest approach: don’t make any decisionsbefore late November. Sunday’s for superficial things.Focus on home, security and property Monday toWednesday (but don’t buy anything). Romance,creativity visit late week. Chores, Saturday: be safe.Gemini May 21-June 20: Start nothing new beforeNov. 26. An opportunity (and/or relationship) fromthe past might re-appear in the days ahead, but bynext week the things returning are chores. You mighthave to redo something at your place of employment,or fill in at a former position. Watch schedules andsupplies: disruptions and delays are likely, so planwell ahead, and have a back-up arrangement. Buynothing Sunday. (It would prove useless.) Travel,communicate Monday-Wednesday. Be home, attendto family, property, security late week. Romance,Saturday? (Better in evening, night.)

Cancer June 21-July 22: Romance, adventure,creativity, beauty, pleasure, sports and games fill theweeks ahead. Not this week, but the next two, couldbring an old flame. Judge whether this is worthtaking up again. What were the original problems?Your energy and charisma ride high Sunday – butdon’t start any important new relationships (oldflames excluded) or projects before Nov. 26.Chase money, buy and sell Monday to Wednesday– but don’t buy big or expensive things. Travel,communications lure you late week (Thursday best).Be patient: answers can take a long time. Home,family Saturday.Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Lie low, rest and thinkSunday. Your energy and charisma bounce backMonday to Wednesday. You attract admiration andride a wee winning streak these three days. (It wouldbe stronger if this month were not so domestic and“ending-oriented.” Still, it’s probably enough to putyou over the top – or rescue you. Obama’s a Leo.) Still,until Nov. 26, it’s not a good idea to begin anythingsignificant, buy anything important, nor initiate arelationship. An old love affair or a favourite childmight return – it’s good, but short. Chase money lateweek: but buy nothing important.Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Start/buy/love nothingnew before Nov. 26. Until then, you’re not seeingall elements of a situation or project. This leads tominor delays or mistakes with ongoing ventures,but proves deadly to new ones, if started during thisinterval. Do old or ongoing things only, especiallyin home and career zones. You might revisit an oldhaunt. Sunday’s useless but fun – enjoy! Retreat, lielow Monday to Wednesday. Re-examine all plannedaction: any flaws? Your energy and charisma surgeupward late week. A career-money plum awaitsyour pluck! Buy NOTHING significant Saturday.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: You might feel ambitiousSunday, but your efforts would be wasted – relax.Now to Nov. 26, do not launch any new enterprises,whether in business,practical or family affairs,or love.They would tend to run in circles and never “finish.”Old ventures, circumstances might re-appear inthe next three weeks, especially in intellectual,learning, travel or governmental zones. If these areobligations, handle them. If opportunities, examineonce, then grab ‘em. A former money opening mightreturn next week or the next. Social delights arriveMonday-Tuesday. Retreat, contemplate late week.Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Your energy, charismaand pizzazz ride a wave of joy to late month –enjoy it! But don’t start new projects of any kind,especially in financial, sexual and social spheres.Stick to the on-going, or reprise past, abandonedprojects – these can succeed. Your heightenedmagnetism might attract someone from your past,particularly next week. Watch for mistakes, checkyour bank account, repeat instructions or phonenumbers. You’re ambitious Monday-Wednesday:but remember, nothing new. Social joys, popularity,light romance and delicious optimism visit youlate week.Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Lie low, rest andcontemplate. Your energy reserves are low. Takecare of your “nest” (and nest egg). DON’T start newprojects or relationships before Nov. 26. Past contactsand ongoing obligations/work roles are best. A formerrelationship could appear – good, all things beingequal, before Nov. 14; not so good for love, good fortherapy and confessions Nov. 14 onward. Someonecould make your heart rise happily late week.Research or rest Sunday. Your intellect awakensMonday to Wednesday. Ambitions, authorities figureprominently Thursday/Friday: behave!

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Wishes can cometrue over the next three weeks – old wishes. At leastone or two joys from the past will appear – a formerlight, fun romance, a past group of friends, a formerlyplanned then abandoned social, convention orpolitical event, a former bright plan. You’re happy! ButDO NOT start new projects or relationships, especiallyin these zones before Nov. 26. Relax, worship Sunday.Mysteries, financial and sexual urges appear Monday-Wednesday. DO NOT commit. Travel, intellectual andlegal areas are highlighted late week. Saturday’sambitious: night time’s best.Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Your career, ambitions,status and reputation are highlighted this month.(You seldom care about reputation because you’reusually innocent of bad motives.) A former career rolemight return. In all areas, avoid starting new projects,plans or relationships before Nov. 26. Instead, stickwith ongoing situations, and protect these frommistakes, misunderstandings, missed meetings orsupply shortages. A former friend might return briefly,to point the way. Exciting meetings, relationshipsfill early week (not Sunday). Mysteries and sexual,financial urges visit late week.Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Your dreams, plansand intellect turn backward into the land of revisionthis week to Nov. 26 – start nothing importantbefore that date. Instead, address missing factors,read and research, and stick with ongoing projectsand relationships – or reprise past situations andlinks. Sunday’s sweet, romantic, pleasurable, butwith little result. Tackle routine chores Monday toWednesday. Your relationships, good and difficult, fillThursday/Friday (Thursday better). An investment-property deal, or sexy-security attraction, lights upmid-to-late week.
