The City of Williams Lake rejected a fire pro-tection proposal which would have seen a more equitable cost sharing arrangement between city and rural residents.
According to the Cariboo Regional District (CRD), nego-tiations on a new fringe area fire protection agreement broke down after the City rejected the new proposal.
“We are extremely
disappointed,” said Area F Director Joan Sorely. “Stunned really.”
Currently, under the Local Services Act, fire protection services are provided to the major-ity of CRD fringe area residents through an agreement between the Province of BC and the City of Williams Lake. In addition to the pro-vincial agreement, there are two smaller agree-ments between the CRD
and the City of Williams Lake for the provision of fire protection services to other residents in the Williams Lake fringe area.
The Central Cariboo Joint Committee appointed a sub com-mittee last fall to sort out the details of a new agreement that would replace all three current-ly in place, said Sorely.
The agreement that was presented by the sub
committee recently was endorsed by the CRD and then rejected by the City of Williams Lake.
This new agree-ment would have seen the Williams Lake Fire Department continue to provide fire protec-tion services to fringe area residents under one amalgamated agree-ment between the City and the CRD. The new proposal, devel-oped by the Williams
Lake Fire Protection Sub-Committee, would have resulted in a more equitable cost sharing arrangement for all resi-dents.
“Right now the fringe
residents are paying much more than their city counter parts are for the same services,” said Sorely.
The Cariboo Regional District will
now be investigating what alternative options may be available.
Representatives from the City did not return calls for an interview on the matter.
CRD says fringe fire protection talks have broken down with City

base line target for the Williams Lake timber supply area.
“We need certainty about what opportuni-ties our forest resource will provide. Our fami-lies, companies, and communities can plan and adapt if we know what the sustainable harvest level is going to be,” said Cook.
Several of the speak-ers through out the evening referenced the Cariboo Chilcotin Land Use Management Plan, suggesting it should be upheld.
Cariboo Chilcotin Conservation Society’s Martin Kruss said old-growth management areas were allocated for a reason and shouldn’t be logged. He stated this was a concern for the CCCS.
Another concern that was echoed by a few of the speakers including Bob Macnair, financial secretary of the United Steelworkers Union, was that there is no clear inventory of what is left for trees.
“How can a govern-ment, which is supposed to be the stewards of public land, make deci-sions about a land base when they don't know what's actually out there as far as inven-tory,” asked Macnair.
Panel Chair MLA John Rustard respond-ed that the ministry believes pine beetle wood will continue being cut for the next 10 to 20 years.
Macnair responded by saying that nobody had been able to get out there to do the inven-tories.
“Our members are very concerned,” said Macnair. “Every day there are two or three
coming in who say, "Can you tell us how much longer the mills are going to operate." I can't say because I don't know.”
A group of First Nation Chiefs includ-ing Chiefs Zack Parker, Fred Robbins, Irvine Johnston, Francis Laceese, and Marilyn Baptiste spoke to the panel outlining their concerns about how the timber supply affects their communities and how they are not going to let their land be logged.
“The Xeni Gwet'in have been taking many measures for many, many decades to pro-tect the land and the ecology,” said Baptiste. “Those things provide for our people and our way of life. We demand to be a part of these processes, if you want to continue working in our territories.”
Esket’emc Chief Fred Robbins spoke about how First Nations need the revenue from their resources, and how they need to be included in a
meaningful way.“Our elders have sat
on their front porch watching truck loads upon truck loads of tim-ber leave their territory while they are living in poverty,” said Robbins. “I was always told to speak on behalf of those who can't speak for themselves, and that's the deer, the fish, the moose, the moon, the stars, the trees and the next generation. That's
something that we need to think about.”
The special commit-tee held a forum in 100 Mile House Thursday morning before coming to Williams Lake and followed with a forum in Quesnel on Friday morning.

Monday saw the start of the Child Development Centre’s Horsin’ Around pro-gram for its clients.
The children par-ticipating in the pro-gram have a chance to learn everyday care and grooming for “their”
horses, learn the prin-ciples of safe horse handling, and develop some basic horseman-ship skills.
“They start off by getting comfortable around ‘their’ horse, and then over the week they learn some basic riding skills and finish off with fun games,” said Sherry
Carter, a Supported Child Development consultant for the CDC. “We have 32 children enrolled from ages five to 17.”
Carter said the CDC has been putting on this program for many years, and says it’s an excellent opportunity for CDC clients to socialize and experience something new.
“The program would not be possible without the Williams Lake Trail Riders, who donate their indoor arena, or Jane Folka, who is pro-viding the instruction,” Carter said.
“With no horse, there would be no pro-gram and the children get so excited as the week approaches.”
Carter also says all the volunteers that work to put on this event are a huge part, the event would not be possible without everyone’s help.
One of those excited children was 10-year-old Louis Laurence and, as he arrived outside the Trail Riders arena, he
could hardly contain his excitement and was all smiles.
“It’s my first time on a horse,” Louis said. “I can’t wait.”
Louis was super excited to get into the arena and meet his horse, Two Tonne but once the time came to get on he was a little unsure.
With a few words of encouragement to get on and see if he liked it, he threw his one leg over and hopped on.
And when his helpers Riley Cooper and Emily Bristow led him around and he learned a few basics such as “whoa,” pulling the reins to stop, and turning the horse right or left, he was quite content to stay up on his horse until it was time to get down.
The children who are registered for the pro-gram are broken down into three groups of six, and each have an hour session for four days.
“The smaller groups keep the instruction more one-on-one and allows for there to be
two handlers for each child,” Carter said.
The program wraps for this week on
Thursday, and a new set of children will partici-pate next week July 16 to the 19.
Williams Lake and District Credit Union and the Williams Lake RCMP are pleased to again be involved in the Cops for Cancer ride. Cst. Chris IVES and Dave Dickson will be representing the Williams Lake Detachment this year on the mid-September ride that goes from Prince George to Prince Rupert—a mere 850 kilometers in 7 days!
Credit Unions throughout the North
have again supplied 8 new ‘Cannondale ‘bicycles for the riders. Replacement of the bike fleet has been an ongoing contribution since 2008.
On July 13th, 2012, Williams Lake and District Credit Union will be hosting a BBQ at its Williams Lake Branch from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm. All sale proceeds benefit the BC Cancer Society which the riders sup-port through their
ride.Any further ques-
tions or information, please contact Elaine Sager, Executive
Assistant at Williams Lake and District Credit Union 250-398-9298 or Dave Dickson at 250-392-8701.
Horsin’ around provides opportunities to learn
Tonight, Wednesday July 11, at the Scout Island Nature Centre those interested will have the opportunity to explore a salt-water tank.
The salt-water tank will house a variety of new, live creatures including sea cucumbers, crabs, sea stars, and anemones.
The event starts at 7 p.m. in the Nature House, and everyone who attends will learn about all the creatures’ life styles and have an opportunity to see them up close.
There is no cost or registration for this pro-gram, just come with your curiosity and enjoy this fun for all ages night.
Courtney Taylor photoIt took a little convining to get 10 year-old Louis Laurence on his horse Two Tonne, but once he was up there and comfortable he had a fantastic time riding a horse for the first time.

A few degrees off course can make a big difference
Music festival season is here
Courtney Taylor photoSabine Lorraine,5, and Max Brown, 5, dance along to the music of Doug Koyama at July 5's Performances in the Park. This week My Wife's Quartet plays at 7 p.m. and Magical Jesaja will be perorming at 5 p.m. July 12.
The pilot was young, and hadn’t been flying long. It was a practice flight and the plane was small - just a speck in the insanity of Southern California air traffic. But in spite of the snow sparkling on the high peaks and the usual smear of smog in the valley, what hap-pened that day was not ordinary.
The week before, a local flight instructor had crashed while land-ing. So the pilot was alert - wide-awake, in fact! But it’s uncanny what can happen at
higher altitudes, at low-er-than-recommended oxygen levels. Logic and reason may vanish, and judgment become impaired - just when its time to make a deci-
sion.Not long after take-
off, the pilot noticed the plane was a little off course. Just a lit-tle - not very much. Only two or three degrees. A gentle breeze had blown the aircraft slightly west. “It wasn’t going to be a very long flight, any-way.“ But pointing an airplane a few degrees in the wrong direction can mature into a com-pletely missed destina-tion.
The novice pilot corrected the heading by three degrees, but
in the wrong direction, and the mistake was doubled. When that happens, things can get worse - fast! And they did. The territory below began to look unfamiliar and fuel supplies dwindled. The original destination was nowhere in sight. This was not the trip that was planned!
Before it was over, this particular adven-ture included a near miss with an airliner and an unexpected landing at a closed airport, all because of a small mis-calculation that could
have been fixed. Over time the little misstep had grown into a very big problem indeed.
Our good fortune is that high-flying pilots and even people on the ground can usu-ally learn from what goes awry. That par-ticularly pilot learned that straightening thing out just as soon as pos-sible would lesson the cost, the risk, and the danger.
Flying and living at times we all get blown off course. Schedules, accidents, society’s pres-sures, and a thousand
things may scheme to keep us from our goals. If we refocus on our goals early there will be little difficulty. But merely floating along in the direction the winds take us, adding a few poor choices of our own, (my own!), I may find myself so far off course I can’t get back, risking my options completely.
Life doesn’t offer a lot of ‘go-around again’ chances. Everything we choose, all that we watch or think, and especially how we spend our
leisure time each of these is a step toward something, somewhere. Closer to our goals, or farther away - a few degrees at a time.
Grad is over. Alex, you’re in the pilot’s seat now. This summer you can head toward your goals, or head in a direction where you will miss them entirely, even if it is only by a few degrees. That choice is what I’ll be considering this summer, too - just as soon as I go and park the plane.

LivingoutLoud with Rita Corbett
It may have been hot and sunny this weekend, but it was hard to ignore the defi-nite haze over the city.
That smoky haze had many people ask-ing each other if they knew where the fire was, because we all know where there’s smoke there’s fire right?
Well in this case there is a fire, a big one in fact, but it’s not in the Cariboo-Chilcotin, it’s not even in the province.
The source of the
haziness over the past few days is thanks to the massive wild fires south of the border in Colorado.
The loitering smoke may be caused by “tem-perature inversion,” when a layer of warm air overlays a layer of cooler air, effectively capping smoke, dust and other pollutants which would otherwise diffuse into the tropo-sphere according to a Wildfire Management spokesperson.
That ‘temperature inversion’ has sent
the smoke traveling over 1,300 kilometres covering Kamloops, Merrit, Lillooet and us here in the Cariboo with clouds of smoke.
Along with the smoke from Colorado and other fires down in the States, some of the haze has drifted over from Siberia. Hard to believe yes, but air travels fast when helped .
For now, the Cariboo region and the other B.C. regions affected by the smoke are under air qual-
ity advisors but should only be short lived. So for, if you have any breathing difficulties it's best to hide out indoors (with the A/C cranked).
We can all be thank-ful that the smoke is not from a fire nearby, just yet anyways.
With the drier con-ditions we had over the weekend, the chances of forest fires increase. Let’s all hope our wet June is going to keep this fire season to a minimum so we do not see a repeat of 2010.
July is in full swing, and now that the excite-ment of Stampede is over it’s time to move on to other exciting things such as the great music festivals that are coming up around the region.
Coming up first is Arts on the Fly out in Horsefly July 13 and 14, which started out as just a few musi-cians playing one day and has now grown into a two-day event. There are performanc-es Friday night, and all day Saturday along with different work-shops. The first Arts on the Fly Festival was in 2006 and was started by a couple of
friends who wanted to promote tourism in their community. And now six years later, it’s grown into a fabulous weekend of music, dance and art.
It’s a great reason to get in the car and head out that direc-tion. Horsefly has lots to offer, and there is plenty of camping not too far away at Horsefly Lake and Quesnel Lake. Make a weekend out of it – catch some great musicians some local and some from out of town and enjoy the great outdoors in the process.
For more informa-tion about who will be at this year’s festival
check out their website www.artsonthefly.com.
Speaking of festivals that started small and grew, the next week July 20. 21 and 22 is the Discovery Coast Music Festival out in Bella Coola.
It may be a long drive, but with great music, beautiful scen-ery, and a scenic road in it’s well worth it.
The Discovery Coast Music Festival is in 13th year, and has local and out of town performers. Williams Lake’s Drum and Bell Tower are set to per-form, a performance not to be missed. A full schedule is avail-able on their website
www.bellacoolamusic.org
So embrace the great outdoors, and the beautiful commu-nities surround us in Williams Lake while taking in and support-ing some great musi-cians.
Music festivals can be a great family event - start off with catch-ing some of the great artists and then move onto to exploring the area. Both Horsefly and Bella Coola are located in beautiful areas of the region.
Check out some great music festivals in the region, and sup-port local tourism in the process!

[email protected] notes on Wil l iams Lake Stampede. Congratulations to all of the volunteers who worked very hard to hold one of the best Stampedes in this town. A record for attendance, the Premier, and son visit-ing, also Carey Price returned to ride and be part of the Stampede. Price looks as com-fortable on a horse as he does between the pipes for the Montreal Canadiens.
A tip of the com-munity hat goes out to Claudia Blair, Willie Crosina and Freddy Thomas, as
they were the recipi-ents of the Queen’s 75 Jubilee Medals. The Presentation was made by MP Dick Harris and Christy Clark. Those good folks were nominated by peers and members of the community in recog-
nition for their hard work and contribu-tions. I know all three and have worked with Claudia for close to 30 years and consider her a good friend. She certainly has worked hard for the Cariboo Chilcotin and Williams Lake.
Students are cer-tainly glad to hear the dispute with the BC Teachers Federation has ended and the gov’t was glad they reached a net zero increase. This means you and I as taxpayers won’t be dip-ping into our wallets to pay for wage increases, when there simply is not enough money in
the government coffers to offer them any more dollars.
Interesting, the Teacher turnout to vote on the contract was about as bad as our last municipal election in Williams Lake. Those teachers who took the time to support their union voted 75 percent in favor of contract.
All that glit-ters is gold, at least in Barkerville. Frank Callaghan, President of Barkerville Gold said they have now found more gold than originally anticipated. Apparently this new find, is one of the largest in the world.
Barkerville Gold Mines has now received all environmental permits necessary for it to go ahead with it Bonaza Ledge project, which is in the same area. Mayor Robin Shape of Wells says this is good for Barkerville and it will create 100 jobs.
Did you know that 75 percent of the worlds production of maple syrup comes from Canada, mostly from Quebec? Did you know the majority of the wine produced in BC is consumed in this province?

Solid production numbers for Taseko Mines
Taseko Mines Ltd. announces 2012 sec-ond quarter total pro-duction of 23.9 mil-lion pounds of copper and 379,000 pounds of molybdenum at its 75% owned Gibraltar Mine.
Total sales for the quarter were 26.4 mil-lion pounds of copper and 361,000 pounds of molybdenum. Taseko's 75% share of total sales was 19.8 million pounds of copper and 271,000 pounds of molybde-num which compares to 12.7 million and 354,000 pounds in the first quarter.
Additionally, last week the Company took advantage of short-term copper price strength to purchase copper put options for the first half of 2013. The put options have a strike price of US$3.00 per pound of copper and represent approximately 60% of Taseko’s share of pro-duction.

Older toilets can use as much as 20 litres of water per use whereas newer low ow toilets use only 4.8 litres or less, some using as little as 3
litres. As a result, changing only one toilet to a more ef cient model can save tens of thousands of litres of water per year. Replacing residential toilets also saves wastewater entering the sewage treatment plant, saving on treatment costs and on the amount of ef uent leaving the plant.
A total of $25,000 is being made available for this program in 2012. The rebates are as follows:
Toilets:• The amount of the receipt to a maximum of $75 for a
4.8 litre ush toilet. • The amount of the receipt to a maximum of $100 for a
4.8/3 litre ush toilet. • The amount of the receipt to a maximum of $125 for a
3 litre ush toilet. • A rebate for contractors who build new homes can
receive a $75 rebate for installation of a 3 litre toilet instead of the standard 4.8 litre.
Clothes Washers and Dishwashers:• Amount of the receipt to a maximum of $150 for
appliances that have a Water Factor of less than 6, and the amount of the receipt to a maximum of $200 for appliances that have a Water Factor of 3 or less.
For a list of appliances and the Water factor, visit www.williamslake.ca. Click on Departments, Planning and Operations, Water Conservation.
The City of Williams Lake will be implementing the Toilet Replacement Program between June 1 and August 31 on a rst-come, rst-serve basis. There is a limit if two toilet/appliance rebates per residential dwelling per year. Applications and information brochures are available at City Hall, and information brochures will be available online at www.williamslake.ca

The sun was out for the Williams Lake Garden Club and the Cariboo Piecemakers Quilting Club’s second annual combined gar-den and quilt show last Saturday.
“Last year was a wonderful success,”
said Elaine Watt, who is a quilting club mem-ber. “The garden club asked us to join them last year and it was great – we sold over 100 tickets and raised $600 for each our charities.”
Those who pur-chased tickets for this year’s tour were not
disappointed. There were 10 different gar-dens throughout the city and more than a 100 quilts displayed throughout the differ-ent gardens.
“There are a huge variety of gardens this year," said Watt, who toured all 10 the day before. “Everything from smaller backyard delights to large expan-sive gardens.”
Watt had her 15 years' worth of quilts displayed in Susan Graves' garden locat-ed in town on Fourth Avenue.
“The exposure we get from the garden tour is just fantastic,” Watt said.
Gerry Gerbert of the Garden Club said the addition of the quilts adds more beauty to the tour.
“With the quilts along with the gardens it was just beautiful,” Gerbert said. “I heard there was music play-ing at one garden, made for a wonderful day.”
And despite the hot weather, there were many avid gardeners, quilters, and just those who enjoy looking at beautiful flowers and quilts out on the tour.
Joanne Regush and her husband Ron were in from Mcleese Lake to take a tour though
the different gardens and pick up some ideas along the way.
“We’ve gotten many great ideas from the different gardens we’ve seen,” Ron said. “The garden tour is excep-tional this year.”
The couple learned a bit from each garden they went to and in Shelley Barber’s garden they took away ideas about a wishing well, learned a few names of plants, viewed some beautiful quilts and even bought a lily pad.
“The quilts are also magnificent,” Ron said. “Everyone’s done a marvelous job.”
Barber said it took her 14 years to turn her backyard into what it is today, which is
complete with a pond, wishing well, and all flowers and plants – no grass.
“It was all grass when I moved in and it’s slowly changed as the years have gone by,” Barber said.
She said she loves talking about her gar-den with other people, and the garden tour is the perfect way to engage with other peo-ple interested in gar-dening.
Gerbert said the tour was very success-ful with 165 tickets sold and more than $1,000 being split between their two charities, the Women’s Contact Society and the Hough Memorial Cancer Society.

A story that is 102 years in the makingCourtney Taylor Cariboo Advisor
A long time Cariboo resi-dent celebrated her 102nd birthday last Thursday, July 5 surrounded by friends and family.
“Faye Moore is a pret-ty special lady,” said Andre Chevigny. “She’s been friends with my mom for 51 years.”
Moore has lived in Williams Lake since 1952, when her and her husband Jim moved here because Jim wanted to ranch.
“It was too cold here to ranch so he ended up work-ing as a carpenter until he died in 1961 of cancer,” said Moore.
That same year she met Anna Crucil, Chevigny’s mother, a single mom of five children at the time. Crucil needed somewhere to live and when she went to the Catholic Church she was directed to Miss Moore.
“My husband had built cabins,” said Moore.
Chevigny said his mother lived in one of Miss Moore’s cabins for three months until she found a place of her own.
“They became best friends,” he said.
Moore said she was always
trying to help people if she could.
“My door was always open to those who needed it,” she said.
Chevigny said Moore, or
as he calls her ‘little sweetie’ always kept busy by helping others out.
“Do you know why he calls me ‘sweetie’? – says it’s because I am sweet.” she said.
“But how does he know? He’s never tasted me.”
Chevigny said he comes to visit Moore often, and says he always leaves with a life lesson.
Miss Moore’s lesson for the day yesterday went something like ‘mistakes are lessons if you have enough sense to know it.’
According to Chevigny,
Moore has tons of stories still to tell from growing up in Fort Towson, Oklahoma, playing professional bas-ketball after finishing high school, and living on her own for almost 40 years in her trailer with her cat Baby.
“The day Baby died she called me up at work and told me she needed to see me because Baby was fro-zen, I asked her what she meant,” said Chevigny. “She said Baby died so I put him in the freezer, I need you to make me a box for him.”
Chevigny said he made a box for Baby and carved his name on the top, Moore said he was 16 years old.
“Over the years (Faye) has been a very special part of my life and my family’s life,” he said. “My wife and I and our four kids come and visit when we can including Christmas Eve and Thanksgiving.”
He said his kids and his wife, along with his siblings and Moor’s son who lives in town visit her regularly.
As to why she’s still going at 102, she said she prays every night for everyone, good or bad.
“I am still not finished, I still have some things to do."
Courtney Taylor photoFaye Moore is a long time Cariboo resident and recently celebrated her 102nd birthday. Andre Chevigny is a long time family friend and gave her a cross necklace for her birthday that put a smile on her face.

Kids running for Kids — and raise — thousandsCourtney TaylorCariboo Advisor
After months of preparation and anticipation, the Kids Running For Kids run to Vancouver is behind them, but the memories will last forever.
“It was an amazing experi-ence,” said 13-year-old Miranda Doerkson. “We ran over 4,000 kilometres as a group.”
Miranda was one of more than 63 kids who participated in the run from Williams Lake all the way to Vancouver over seven days.
The group ran in Williams Lake, 108 Mile House, Clinton, Cache Creek, Lytton, Boston Bar, Harrison Hot Springs, Mission, Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows before arriving at B.C. Children’s Hospital Saturday, July 7 to pres-
ent the hospital with a $77,726.47 cheque. Donations are still com-ing in and they hope to top $100,000.
“Each community embraced our group with sincerity and warmth,” said Sue Kennedy, one of the parents along the trip, in a letter to Mayor Kerry Cook.
The group had the chance to participate in Canada Day celebra-
tions in 108 Mile House and heard some inspirational words from MLA Donna Barnett, according to Rya Enns, one of the organizers.
Enns said that was just the beginning of the week. In Clinton they were met with water, juice, fruit and community leaders; in Cache Creek they were met with more snacks, face painting and a group from Kamloops who came
to cheer them on. A First Nations chief and youth ambassadors greet-ed the kids in Lytton and, in Harrison Hot Springs, the group was met by Mayor Leo Facio and led in by a pipe band, parade style, into the plaza.
Enns said these were just a few of the highlights, as each commu-nity along the way welcomed the group with open arms.

The group spent a week running in different communities from Williams Lake to Vancouver and hope to raise over $100,000 by the time all the donations finish coming in.

A group of 12 moti-vated young swim-mers are currently tak-ing the assistant water safety instructor course at Cariboo Memorial Complex this week, and by the end of the five-day course they will be certified to help instruct swimming les-sons.
“We have a full group this week of 12 teens age 15 to 19,” said Deb Radolla, Manager of Active Living at the complex. “We offer the course once a year and it’s great to see it full.”
Radolla said many of those completing the assistant water safety course will go on to complete the Red Cross
water safety instructor course, and once they finish that course will be able to teach swim-ming lessons on their own.
“The kids currently in the assistant program will start helping with swimming lessons next week,” said Radolla.
She it’s great to have the course full and to get more qualified young swimming instructors for the complex.
“There are three sessions of swimming lessons this summer at the pool and having extra help is great,” said Radolla.
There are swimming lessons starting July 16, July 30, and August 13 and Radolla said there is still space in most of the sessions.
Teens get qualified to assist with swim lessons

Nine kids participat-ed in the Conservation and Outdoor Recreation Education program led by Caroline Chupa out at the Rod and Gun Club last week.
“We learned hunter safety, fire-arm safety, a little bit of outdoor sur-vival skills, animal iden-
tification and conserva-tion and hunting ethics,” Chupa said. “And they had actual range practice and shot a firearm.”
Chupa said all of the children in the program had some experience hunting, whether for grouse or gophers, but now, at the end of the program, have their own hunting number.
"They need to be with an adult, but now that they have their own hunting number they can hunt during youth season,” she said.
Her course was strict-ly for kids ages 10 to 14, but she also had two moms participate.
“We all had a great time,” Chupa said. “The moms that were there
also had the chance to shoot a firearm and both really enjoyed it.”
Chupa said this is the second time she has put on a course just for junior hunters.
There are no other courses like it in the region, she added.
“The week was so popular and because there was so much
interest I am putting on another course next week,” she said. “Having lots of interest from young people will hope-fully help increase mem-bership for the club."
The course ran from July 3 to 6 from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and gave the kids about 22 hours of instruction.
“This was one of those summer-camp-type things that the kids were very excited about – I had all the parents tell me their kids couldn’t wait to come each day.”

Manny, Diego, and Sid set out on their greatest adven-ture when an entire continent is set adrift. Separated from the rest of their pals, they’re launched on an epic seafaring quest, using an iceberg as a makeshift ship.
Manny and the gang are challenged to become heroes and do the impossible as they encounter exotic sea creatures, explore a brave new world, and battle ruthless pirates. Meanwhile, Scrat’s reunion with his cursed nut launches him to places no prehistoric squirrel
has gone before.

(Mark Wahlberg) Christmas miracle happened when he made a wish and his best (and only) childhood friend—his cherished teddy bear named Ted—came to life.
He grew up with Ted by his side but now, as an adult, John finds himself drifting away from his old friend. The time comes when he must make a choice between his new girlfriend and his faithful but extremely inappropriate teddy bear.

HOROSCOPE
Summertime Corn and Quick and Easy TroutWhen you think of summertime food…what do you think of rst? My rst thought
regarding one food that sort of symbolizes summertime eating, was corn. Although the major supply of BC corn will not hap-pen for another couple of weeks, the import corn I had from the su-permarket was pretty tasty.The other food I thought of for summer-time was sh. It seems to me more people eat sh during the summer
than any other season. Around the Cariboo Coast-Chilcotin the catch of the day is mainly trout.The next two reci-
pes are perfect for the upcoming weekend. This vegetable and sh recipe is pretty simple cooking and certainly easy. Prepare before you go out for the weekend and all you have to do at dinner time is throw the food on something hot. You can cook them eas-ily on your barbecue, camp stove, or over a camp re.
Summertime Corn3/4 teaspoon chili powder1/8 teaspoon dried oregano2/3 pinch onion powderCayenne pepper to tasteGarlic powder to tasteSalt and pepper to taste1/3 cup butter, softened4 ears corn, cleanedPreheat grill for me-dium-high heat. In a medium bowl, mix to-gether the chili powder, oregano, onion pow-der, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Blend in the softened butter. Apply this mixture to each ear of corn, and place each ear onto a piece of alu-
minum foil big enough to wrap the corn. Wrap like a burrito, and twist the ends to close. Place on the preheated grill, and cook 20 to 30 min-utes, until tender when poked with a fork. Turn corn occasionally dur-ing cooking.Quick and Easy Trout11/2 pounds of trout llets or salmon
Salt and pepper to taste3 cloves garlic, minced1 sprig fresh dill, chopped5 slices lemon5 sprigs fresh dill 2 green onions, choppedPreheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray two large pieces of alumi-num foil with cooking spray.
Place salmon llet on top of one piece of foil. Sprinkle salmon with salt, pepper, garlic and chopped dill. Arrange lemon slices on top of llet and place a sprig
of dill on top of each lemon slice. Sprinkle llet with chopped
scallions.Cover salmon with second piece of foil and pinch together foil to tightly seal. Place on a baking sheet or in a large baking dish.Cook for about 20 min-utes until salmon akes easily.I Hope you have a good weekend… Please drive with care and caution.Bye for now and Goood Cooking.

A vacation could be in the works in the next few weeks, Aries. Because tasks can seem to sneak up on you, get the planning started early and work up an itinerary.
Take some time to look through your checkbook or online bills history, Taurus. You may have a few unexpected expenses on the horizon and you’ll need to some extra cash.
Loss is not something easily overcome, Gemini. If you’ve lost someone you love due to relocation or illness, surround yourself with a good support team until you rebound a bit.
Never say never, Cancer, because you may look foolish when you eventually do the things you said you never would. Instead, be open to all possibilities and opportunities.
Great ideas often arrive with little effort, Leo. It’s turning those ideas into a working project that can often take a lot of energy. However, Gemini, you’re up for the challenge.
For the most part you’re insistent on doing things yourself and taking the diffi cult route, Virgo. Try to let go a little this week and let someone else handle things for a change.
Libra, you may have your heart set on making a change, but you have not quite narrowed down what that change will be. Sit down and work on some ideas this week.
The only way you will know if your ideas have merit is to stick you neck out and take a chance once in a while, Scorpio. You just may be surprised at the feedback.
There’s not much else you can do with regard to a tenuous relationship, Sagittarius. So it’s best if you just cut your losses and move on. You’ll make new friends easily.
Although you want to be everything to everyone, there’s only so much of you to go around, Capricorn. Don’t spread yourself too thinly because it can take quite a while to recuperate after.
Aquarius, you are ready to dabble in something that you and you alone enjoy. Figure out what you need to get started and begin building around your specifi c interest or hobby.
With so many friends seeking your attention, Pisces, you just may be the star of a particular social event that may come up this week.

It is immense sadness we announce the loss of an amazing husband, father and friend of Williams Lake, after his courageous battle against cancer. Left with a hole in their hearts and lives are wife Debbie, sons Travis (Nicole) and Kevin (Lisa), his much loved and adored grandchildren, Lila-Dawn,
Kara-Lynn and Jayden-James. His sisters Brenda (Tom) McGladrey of Nanaimo and Verlaine (Don) Fitzpatrick of Williams Lake. Jim will also be sadly missed by numerous other family and friends Canada-wide. There are so many of us that mourn the passing of this gentle soul.
He was predeceased by his parents and nephew.
Jim’s presence in our lives has been a gift we will always be grateful for. We will miss his smile, humour, loyalty, loving touch and one of the most positive and brave spirits we will ever have had the pleasure to know. We would like to extend deepest appreciation to our family and friends for your incredible love, support, prayers, and act of kindness.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, July 15th, 2012 at McKinnon Hall downstairs in the St. Andrew’s United Church in Williams Lake at 1:00 pm.
In lieu of fl owers, donations can be made directly to the MS Society of Canada or the B.C. Children’s Hospital.
