ANSWER TO PUZZLE NO. CW1623110
CAPRICORN Capricorn, if youre looking to ll the void in your
calendar, sign up for a class that will challenge your creative or
mental abilities. Try an arts or dance centre as a start.
AQUARIUSAquarius, if you nd that you are craving some
adventurous activities, get started. But work under the tutelage of
an experienced guide to learn the ropes.

yourself without feeling the crunch of deadlines or
responsibilities. Youll get a few free moments to do whatever you
like.

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca
Over my nearly 20 years of prac-tice I have seen countless
patients who have experienced improve-ments in organ and immune
func-tion following spinal adjustments. In fact, Chiropractics
founding fathers in the late 1800s wrote extensively about how
spinal sub-luxations interfere with the ability of the body to
properly regulate organ and immune function. What is exciting is
current science is now catching up to what early Chiropractors and
Osteopaths knew a hundred years ago.
In 2015 a group of Physiotherapists from New Zealand reviewed 68
research articles and published their results in the jour-nal
Medical Hypotheses titled Measurable Changes in the
Neuro-endocrinal Mechanism Following Spinal Manipulation. What they
found was that the effects of spinal manipulations are beyond
biome-chanical changes only. They dis-covered that spinal
adjustments affect how the autonomic nervous system (ANS) functions
and they help to restore proper hormone bal-ance and function.
Improper functioning of the auto-nomic nervous system has been
shown to cause a number of health issues. Over-activation of the
ANS (Autonomic Nervous System) results in chronic pain and
inflam-mation disorders such as Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue,
auto-immune diseases, cardiovas-cular problems and Asthma to name a
few.
The researchers suggest spinal manipulation is an effective tool
to help restore ANS balance and help the aforementioned problems.
Other effects of excessive sympa-thetic nervous system activity is
it leads to organ dysfunction and immune system problems.
Chiropractic philosophy includes the understanding that spinal
adjustments influence far more than musculoskeletal function. This
research completed by physio-therapists details the relationship
between spinal adjusting, the nerves that sense spinal motion, the
autonomic nervous system, and the endocrine (hormone) system and
their connection to organ and immune function.
In a nutshell, a wellness chiro-practor should be a part of your
health team! Patients who are under regular care not only benefit
from a reduction of symptoms (headache, back pain, etc) but they
also benefit from increased perfor-mance in sports (there is a
reason why Olympic athletes travel with a chiropractor as part of
their team). Better overall health from a proper-ly functioning
nervous system is the greatest side-effect from a well adjusted
spine. When was the last time you were checked for sublux-ation and
adjusted by a chiroprac-tor?

FROM EDEN CLINICAL COUNSELLING
In the ArenaTeddy Roosevelts words about the man in the
arena have framed Dr. Brene Browns work in defining what it is
to be vulnerable. She describes vulnerability as a deep and
courageous willing-ness to put yourself into the arena and to show
up and be seen by others regardless of outcome. It is knowing that
you are enough and worthy of love and belonging just as you are.
You may lose and fall in the arena, or triumphantly over-come. In
order to be vulnerable we have to be emotionally exposed. What Dr.
Browns research around worthiness, courage, shame, and
vulner-ability has shown is that when we erase vulnera-bility from
our lives we become numb to posi-tive emotional states as well. Joy
fades, while fear and anxiety grow.
Vulnerability is not an esteemed action within our culture. We
hold a belief that it is a weakness to be vulnerable. Men are
supposed to hold it all together, and women are supposed to have it
all. We try to fight being vulnerable by managing our lives with
certainty and blurring our bound-aries. It is difficult to be
vulnerable when we are always worried what others will think, or
when we believe we are not enough.
What is a lack of showing vulnerability cost-ing you? Does it
mean you are not following your dreams, and working in a job you
hate? Does it mean a building of resentment with your partner
because you are afraid to say how you feel? Does it mean you are
always saying yes, when you know you want to say no sometimes?
Examining our boundaries and where resent-ment is building in our
lives can be a great start to see where we need to practice
vulnerability. It will bring a greater sense of worthiness and
joy.
A huge bouquet of stars to Dr. Lorenz and paramedic Darren for
the great care they gave Ed when he fell at the rink on Feb. 6
(sorry you missed the last few minutes of your sons game). Also
thanks to Wayne and Andrew, the ambu-lance crew from Vernon who
turned back from going home to attend our call on a busy Saturday
morn-ing. Ed & Sherry

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
Its amazing the amount of talent in Salmon Arm, with these words
patrons thanked James Bowlby for his latest show. This talented
theatre compa-ny is running the last nights of its new show FUNKIN
DEAD at the Prestige Harbourfront on Thursday. One of the talented
members play-ing the star perform-er at the Kitty Club is Elaine
Holmes.
Elaine has found the-atre relatively recently. She has been able
to meld her love of dance and singing in the role of Rosa Perelli,
a strong woman who is trying to make her rela-tionship with the
man-ager of the club and hit man, played by Mike Nash, work.
Holmes says she
empathizes with Rosa who has spunk, is a fiery, no nonsense
per-son. Rosa doesnt have a lot of choices. If she leaves the club
she may find another job and by leaving will leave the man she is
trying to love. The comedy in the play comes from the ups and downs
of their relationship. Highlights of the show are the 7 songs
Holmes sings with her dynamic voice. Rosa is not able to break the
cycle. Holmes says Rosa has a softer side but has buried it as she
gives her all to the life of a sleazy club singer.
Surprisingly, Elaine has only acted in a few shows, one in high
school and then got hooked playing Audrey, in Little Shop
of Horrors. This past year she played the Russian spy in PACK OF
LIES. She is cur-rently teaming up with Peter Clark in the
cre-ation of their duo Green Room.
Having raised a fam-ily, Elaine looks for-ward to more music and
more theatre as well as enjoying her work as an artist. Director of
FUNKIN DEAD, James Bowlby says Elaine is a delight to work with.
She is able to create a believ-able character, add an enormous
impact with her singing, and assist the production with ideas that
make it the hit show that it is. He hope he can entice her to play
another role in another Salmon Arm Actors Studio produc-tion.
ELAINE HOLMES IS A STAR!

SALMON ARMS RONA WILL BECOME A LOWESLowes, a major home
renovation company in the US, is
buying Canadas Rona. Three years ago Lowes and Rona talked but
the deal did not go through. Canadas Rona is a similar company with
500 stores. Our dollars were at par three years ago. This month,
after Ronas three years of upgrading its stores, including the one
in Salmon Arm, negotiations were completed and an announcement was
made on Feb. 2 that Lowes will buy Rona for $3.2 billion. But now
our dollar is 72 cents to the American dollar. Lowes Canada will
keep Ronas head office in Quebec for now. The purchase needs
shareholder approval.
THE IMAM FROM VERNONS MOSQUESPOKE TO AN ARMSTRONG COMMUNITY
MEETINGA refugee meeting had an interesting program in an
Armstrong school theatre on Sunday afternoon, Feb. 7. About 75
people were there on Super Bowl afternoon. An Armstrong woman spoke
about the family that will be moving to Armstrong as refugees. From
the woman who speaks to him every day, she said the husband speaks
impeccable English. There isnt a date when they will arrive. A
Vernon woman spoke about a large multi-racial committee that
gathered information for a play about a Muslim family that moves
into the neigh-bourhood, and the neighbours reaction. It was
pub-lished into a book in 2014. Eight drama students por-trayed
different people as they read the first three chapters from the
book. The young imam from the Vernon mosque spoke and answered
questions for half an hour. He brought a recent English translation
of the Bible and an English translation of the Koran, the Islamic
sacred book, believed to be the word of God as dictated to the
prophet Muhammad by the archangel Gabriel and written in Arabic in
the 9th century. The imam read a few similarities in the two holy
books.
SECRETS OF A HIGH-FUNCTIONING ALCOHOLICA woman in the U.S. who
was an alcoholic for 10
years, lived a double life. She was a bank supervisor, wife, a
mother of three children, and a soccer mom. She had a dark secret
that nearly destroyed her family. Finally she told her husband she
was going for treat-ment, and why. When she was fully recovered,
she was on Dr. Ozs TV program. Watch the riveting three-min-ute
segments. In the third, her husband is with her. In the fourth, a
psychologist joins them. To see it, go to www.doctoroz.com and
click on former episodes. Search for The secrets of a
high-functioning alcohol-ic.
NEW MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT STOPS DRINKINGAfter an intervention for
Seamus ORegan by friends
and family, the newly-elected MP for St. Johns South-Mount Pearl
went into a wellness program to adopt an alcohol free lifestyle.
His husband expressed his sup-port shortly after the announcement
was made online. Seamus was back before Parliament resumed. If you
are reading this and wish to stop drinking, search the inter-net
for Alcohol Treatment Centres BC.
NEVER ALLOW A WEBSITE TO USE YOUR LOCATIONI was searching the
internet for Ardene, a box opened
on top of its home page and asked if this website could use my
location. I clicked on No. One time I clicked on Yes, and for a
while each time I went on some websites, I got an ad from Podollan
Inns on the right side. Thats how Google makes money. It can target
an audience far better than advertising in other media.

MARCH AGAINST MONSANTOOn May 21, 2016, activists around the
world will,
once again, unite to March Against Monsanto. Search the websites
and Facebook for locations. Research stud-ies have shown that
Monsantos genetically-modified foods can lead to serious health
conditions such as the development of cancer tumors, infertility
and birth defects such as small heads and brains.
IS THE ZIKA VIRUS A SCAM? PERHAPSA subscriber to this column
sent information that
Monsantos herbicide Roundup, not a mosquito, is one of the
causes babies in Brazil are being born with small heads and brains.
It is distributed by Jon Rappoport on nomorefakenews.com. He quotes

Jasper the dog has had a tough week. He reached the inevitable
age when he was to face the knife and finally get neutered. The
worst of it is he had no clue it was coming; despite the Junior
Bean Counters efforts to explain to him what was around the corner.
However, like most good dogs, Jasper just wagged his tail and
licked his face in appreciation of the attention.
I was given the honour of taking him to the vet. You must
realize Jasper is nervous when he comes into new situations. I mean
a red wash bucket will throw him for a loop if he hasnt seen it
before.
So we got there bright and early. He loved the car ride
downtown, but once we got out of the vehicle and walked to the door
of the building he put the brakes on. No amount of coaxing was
convincing him to go thru the door.
Eventually, I had to pick him up and carry him in, but as soon
as I put him back down he tried to bolt for the door. I can see why
they require your pet to be on leash.
As we waited for our turn, he was shivering excessively despite
my attempts to calm him down. Perhaps some of the Junior Bean
Counters words were beginning to sink in and he realized what was
going to happen behind door #1.
The vet was fantastic and after a short discus-sion I left him
to face the music.
My wife picked him up and we arrived home
around the same time that evening. He was excited to see the
boys, but then came the Cone of Shame.
Any amount of enthusiasm was quickly squashed after we put the
cone around his head. The vet had said the wound had to stay dry
for a week, so on went the cone.
For the next three days all the dog did was pout and hang his
head. The first night he liter-ally sat for an hour on our door mat
staring at the floor and not moving. The boys tried lying on the
floor and sticking their heads in the cone to try and perk him up,
but nothing seemed to work.
Periodically we would remove the cone to feed him and allow him
to go to the bathroom. During these brief moments of freedom, he
would race around happy as can be. Unfortunately, these moments
were brief as we would have to put the cone back on and watch him
again pout for another couple hours.
The Junior Bean Counter and his little brother kept telling
Jasper that the cone wasnt necessary if he would stop licking the
wound, but Jasper couldnt seem to resist the temptation whenever
the cone was removed.
So it was a long week of watching him stare at the wall, hang
his head and pout. However, as my wife put it, Hell get it over it
you did!

Smile Day was a day of no-cost dental hygiene services provided
for people who otherwise cannot access this important maintenance
service.
Smile Day is our own initiative. The first Smile Day was held in
December 2009.
Starting in February 2010, a National effort called Gift From
The Heart was held by independent dental hygiene practitioners
throughout Canada, and we partici-pated in that for the past 6
years, always around Valentines day. This year, people in Ottawa
decided to move GFTH to April, to coincide with dental week.
Meanwhile, here in the Shuswap, things continue to be dire, it is
cold and people are not seeing economic improvement. We notice the
Coldest Night of the Year is happening in February also, this
coming Saturday. Therefore, we decided to carry on with the
Valentines day as well as the Smile Day tradition here.
Smile Day was a success; several people were treated to dental
hygiene services. Some will be returning for Interim Stabilization
Therapy to repair teeth at risk, reducing pain, and preserving
tooth structure until such time as the cli-ent can see a dentist
for more per-manent repairs.
To date, the Smile People dental hygiene clinic has treated over
200 people through no cost events like GFTH, Smile Day, the Senior
Smile Program, and the Childrens Oral Health Initiative. We are
grateful for all our regular clients whose loyalty helps to support
these events.
The next Smile Day will be held on Saturday, February 11,
2017.

By Jill GowardIt may not be noticeable to the casual pass-
er-by, but Notch Hill Town Hall has a shiny new roof. Work began
last September and was completed in an amazing two weeks.
President Alan Cook and Vice President Bruce Hlina oversaw the
project, starting with the demolition stage; removing the old roof
(with its fifty hornets nests), stripping the cracked and crumbling
ceiling, and removing outdated electrical wiring and fixtures, etc.
All of these have been replaced according to code and are now
performing well!
So many other members and friends were involved in the project
including Bruces son Wilson, helper Chris, Ben Fecht, Budd Brazier,
Dewy, Irwin and Ian Walters, Zane of Winkler Trucking, Apex
Roofing, Salmon Arm Truss, Spooner Electric, Dave Soucy, L. Turner
Excavating, and many more. It took over 500 volunteer hours to
complete the re-roofing.
It has to be said that considerable help came in the form of
snacks and lunches from the tireless cooks and ladies of Notch Hill
Hall a most welcome and generous treat.
Past and present members of the Association have, over the
years, worked hard to arrive at this point. Together with countless
fundraising projects such as plant sales, pancake break-fasts,
trade shows, bake sales, raffles, and so much more, this
achievement was for the most part made possible because of grants
from the Provincial Government (MLA Greg Kyllo) and Columbia
Shuswap Regional District (Area C Director Paul Demenok). These two
politicians have given of their time and means and they continue to
support this community in its efforts to maintain a vibrant centre
for local activities. This kind of support ensures that the hall
will still be there for local residents for their weddings,
meetings, leisure activities, coffee houses, kids parties, and so
on for years to come. With the new comfy chairs, furnace,
decorating, air-conditioning, and better acous-tics, its going to
be a popular place to rent from now on.
Thank you for all the support; right down to a cash-on-the-spot
donation from a retired gen-tleman who stopped to rest in the
gazebo and admired the devotion going into the roofing project. It
will all be appreciated forever.

Opening our eyes Face-to-face: How we look, and why we hideBy
Nan Dickie
Mental illnesses, especially mood disor-ders, are invisible
ill-nesses. We (and I include myself as one who has lived with
clinical depression since her teens) dont develop a rash, wear a
cast, or sport a DD for I have a depres-sive disorder on our
foreheads. When we are well, we look as healthy, happy, and fit as
you.
You have probably heard of Clara Hughes, the only Canadian
Olympian to win mul-tiple medals in the summer and winter Olympic
Games; she is a true Canadian icon. In 2010, Clara publicly
disclosed the fact that she struggled through two years of clinical
depression after the 1996 Olympics. Since 2010, she has been a
spokes-
person for those who live with clinical depression and bi-po-lar
disorder. She has worked with Bells Lets Talk, a multi-year program
designed to break the silence around mental illness and support
mental health all across Canada.
Not long ago, Clara had a very candid and revealing TV
inter-view with George Stroumboulopoulos in which she spoke very
frankly about her years of depression. I was in inescapable
despair; I felt helpless; I thought I was a com-plete and utter
failure, and had to fix myself before I came back into the world.
And, she added, I thought it was all my fault. I thought I was
never going to feel better; it was only going to get worse and
worse and worse.
Although this was Claras reality when she was ill, when you look
at a photo of her, or hear her speak, would you guess that she has
mental disor-der, a mental illness? Not one bit. She looks
perfectly healthy. And so it is with many of us with mood disorders
when we are enjoying good mental health.
Often people with mood disorders are shocked by the onset of
symptoms, which may appear literally overnight. That is the case
with me. We may deny that symptoms are occurring because we want
desperately for them not to. This denial may lead us to pretend
that we are not on the downward slip-pery slope. Pretending to be
well, the strug-gling person will do her utmost to appear well, to
wear a Im fine facade. She may
reason, If I pretend I am well, maybe I can will myself into
being well. This is wishful thinking and, unfortu-nately, not
achievable. He may rationalize, If I pretend Im fine, no one will
see how weak I am, because depres-sion is a weakness. Depression is
not a weakness. Clinical depression and bi-po-lar disorder are
illness-es, and it takes a great deal of courage to live through
multiple epi-sodes of them. She may think, If I pre-tend Im well,
no one will bug me with their ideas of what I should do to feel
better. Sadly, pretending is not helping her case.
Pretending is a form of hiding. It is not pro-ductive. However,
its understandable why many depressed peo-ple choose this face.
What is our typical image of a person who
is depressed? It may well be of a person looking drawn, eyes
lowered, a blank expression at best, being by herself or
uncomfortably with others. This is quite a different picture than
when one is well.
Looking like how we feel when were depressed is the only thing
many of us can do. We dont have the energy to do other-wise. But,
in being and looking as we are, we are also hiding. We withdraw. We
dont let others in. We become mute.
Why is this so? We make self-judgments. He thinks, I have to
hide the fact Im depressed because I shouldnt be depressed. Its all
my fault. Of course, we know now that it is not his fault; he has
an illness. She decides, I have to hide so that others
dont see how rotten and useless I am. This is the disorder
speak-ing. During an epi-sode, she is still a worthwhile, valuable
human being.
So, whatever face we wear when were ill, we are hiding. How can
we help depressed people realize they dont need to pretend or
withdraw? We can say to him, I know how youre feeling is terrible.
But I want you to know that I really care for you as much as ever.
We can tell her, You are very important to me, whether you believe
it or not. I know that is difficult for you to believe now, but Im
telling you the truth.
What will ultimately help people who hide (i.e., pretend or
with-draw) is a big chal-lenge for each, and all, of us. We need to
reduce the stigma of
mental illness. You can do that now by speaking compassion-ately
with someone who is depressed. (I made suggestions about this last
week.) I will write an article on stigma in a few weeks as part of
this series.

SPORTS & LEISUREThere is a local lacrosse association and
theyre
good and getting better! 2016 is the 20th year that the Shuswap
Minor Lacrosse Association (SMLA) has been based out of Salmon Arm
and Enderby. With players coming from every direction; Chase,
Sicamous, Enderby, Salmon Arm, and Blind Bay all coming together to
form our Shuswap team. Last year both our Box Lacrosse Midget and
Bantam teams went to their BCLA Provincial tour-nament- the Bantams
placed second in the Province!
2015 was an exciting year for another reason, SMLA expanded to
include Field Lacrosse, September to November 2015. Our first year
for the U11, was really a first year. This young team, combined of
players 7 to 11 years of age who had never played field lacrosse
before, finished 3rd in the Interior. Our U15 team combined kids
15-12 years of age, all players showed amazing growth throughout
the season. Every game was stronger and well matched - starting the
season with over 50% new players, you would not have been able to
tell at the end of the season!
As we roll into Spring 2016, Box Lacrosse reg-istration has
started and so have Drop-In practices. Lacrosse is a sport played
by both girls and boys, dont believe the rumours its just for boys.
Come watch our girls, they are amazing players, and the
opportunities to play womens lacrosse are out-standing down the
road.
Box Lacrosse is a fantastic complement to winter hockey-it is
inexpensive to equip lacrosse players as most hockey equipment can
be used in lacrosse. Gretzky, Tavares, Shanahan, and Stamkos are
just some of the NHL players who have been vocal in their support
of lacrosse. A player can learn to play both offensive and
defensive positions and make a quick transition from defence to
offence and vice versa. Lacrosse reinforces the importance of
quick-ness and agility around the net as well as increased hand-eye
coordination when stick handling.
Lacrosse teaches players to play with their head up and to be
more aware of their surroundings.
Come out and try Lacrosse. Most important thing is a great
attitude and a willingness to try something new. To kick start the
season, FREE drop-in sessions will be held: Wednesdays at the SASCU
Indoor Sports Complex for Novice/ PeeWee (2008-2004) 7:30-8:30p.m.
and Bantam/ Midget (2003- 2000) 8:30-9:30p.m. Fridays are for the
younger kidsBastion Elementary for players Mini-Tyke/ Tyke/Novice
(2011-2007) 6:30-7:30pm. New Player Registration Open: Feb 16 - Mar
15.
Safety equipment is required: sticks, gloves, caged helmets,
shoulder pads, and mouth guards (some might be available to
borrow). First time Drop-In requires Birth Certificate and Health
Care Card. For more information con-tact the Registrar, Mae Dodge
via e-mail [email protected] . We look forward to
seeing you soon. www.shuswapminorlacrosse.com

SPORTS & LEISURE
Nearly 90 ringette teams from BC and Alberta converged on
Kelowna for the 2016 Sweetheart Ringette Tournament during the
weekend of Feb. 5th to 7th. Shuswap Ringette was well represent-ed,
sending seven teams in divisions ranging from our youngest age
group (U8) to our oldest (18+) age group. The tournament is a
highlight of the year for the Shuswap players, both for the intense
competition and the off ice memories it provides. Adding to the
experience is the festive atmosphere at the Best Western Hotel in
Kelowna, headquarters for the Shuswap teams.
At the U14 and older levels, the ringette teams compete for
medals in a round robin format (4 games) followed by semi-final and
final playoff games. Shuswap Ringette teams played brilliant-ly,
collectively bringing home a GOLD (Open A Team), SILVER (U14B
Team), and BRONZE (U16B) medal despite the intense competition. Yet
another feather in the cap for Shuswap came when our Open A team
was featured in the pres-tigious Opening Ceremonies match. They
defeat-ed North Vancouver 3-0 to the screaming delight of the huge
and boisterous crowd.
Shuswap Open (18+) CHIX WITH STIX - GOLD MEDAL
The Shuswap Open A team started the tourna-ment Friday with a
nice 7-2 win over Kelowna Open. The second game, however, featured
a tougher Surrey White Rock team which defeated Shuswap 5-2.
Saturday morning started with an exciting game against Burnaby New
West, with Shuswap edging them out 2-1 for the win. The second game
of the day was another exciting game against North West Vancouver.
After a scoreless first half, Shuswap got down to busi-ness and put
three 3 quick goals in the net to win the game 3-0. In the
Semi-Final game, Shuswap saw Burnaby New West again, coming out on
top 4-1 and earning a spot in the gold medal game. The gold medal
game was intense, and was tied at the end of regulation time. In
the 4 on 4 over-time, Shuswaps goalie, Colleen Moorhouse, stood on
her head and Riley Pickrell made a highlight reel top corner
backhand shot to win the Gold Medal. Getting on the score board
with either a goal(s) or assist(s) throughout the tourna-ment are:
Miya Doige, Emily Ferguson, Brooklyn Hay, Alex Lipsett, Kelsey
Salt, Brenna Nakazawa, Taylor Pomponio, Jaylyn Ready, Jennell
Stanley, Chelsey Tarnow, Laurel Velardo, Megan Weatherill, and
Hannah Young.

The District of Sicamoussupports the
Anti-Bullying Campaign on February 24th
Before social media became so prevalent, instances of bullying
were somewhat easy to recognize. However, with a good majority of
children now engaged in digital networking and social media,
bullying may not end with the ringing of the school bell, and
evidence of bullying may not be so readily apparent.According to
Cyberbullying statistics from the i-SAFE foundation, more than half
of adolescents and teens have been bullied online, and about the
same number have engaged in cyberbullying. More than 80 percent of
teens use a mobile phone regularly, making it the most popular form
of technology and a common medium for repeated
cyberbullying.Cyberbullying takes place through electronic
technology and differs from traditional forms of bullying.
Cyberbullying can occur via text messaging, blogging, updates to
social media sites and/or phone conversations. What makes
cyberbullying more dif cult to detect and remedy than traditional
bullying is that sometimes this type of bullying is veiled in
secrecy.Those who engage in cyberbullying can create aliases and
accounts under false names, allowing them to covertly engage in
bullying behavior. As a result, tracking down bullies can be
challenging.Although cyberbullying is on the rise, there are some
things that parents and children can do to help put a stop to such
unfortunate instances. Parents who feel their child is not
emotionally ready for the responsibility of a digital device can
hold back on purchasing a smartphone or choose one with very
limited features. Some schools set strict limits on phone usage at
school, and children who go only from school to home and vice versa
may not have the need for an emergency phone that can open up a
window for trouble.
Adolescents and teens should feel comfortable talking with their
parents without the fear of reprimand. Otherwise, they may hide
instances of cyberbullying or not know how to broach sensitive
topics like bullying. Parents can engage in conversation with their
children often and stress that the doors of communication are
always open. Teens should be made aware that cyberbullying is a
very real occurrence and is not just other kids having fun or
joking. If behavior is repetitive and hurtful, it should be made
public and addressed. Parents can monitor and limit their childrens
personal accounts.
Some smartphone and tablet applications can be mirrored on the
main account, enabling parents to see incoming text or video
messages. A laptop or desktop computer should be placed in a shared
space so that usage can be monitored. Parents can restrict tablet
or smartphone usage to public areas. When online, children should
be advised not to share personal information. Social media sites
may be used by bullies to gather sensitive information about a
person that can be used against them at a later time. Children
should be urged to keep passwords secret and to never give
information such as birthdays, phone numbers and addresses to
people who arent close friends. Friend lists should
be restricted to only those people students interact with
frequently to minimize the chance for bullying or other
inappropriate behavior. Teens who have been bullied can keep
evidence of the bullying and may bene t from talking with a
counselor. Cyberbullying is a growing concern for educators and
parents and has far-reaching implications. Getting smart about this
phenomenon can help staunch new cases of online bullying.

Children grow and develop their personalities in various ways.
While many youngsters are teased or receive some good-natured
ribbing at some point in their school careers, some teasing can
eventually turn into bullying.The National Education Association
estimates that 160,000 children miss school every day due to fear
of attack or intimidation by other students. Furthermore, more than
70 percent of students report incidents of bullying at their
schools. Although children in lower grades have reported being in
more ghts than those in higher grades, there is a higher rate of
violent crimes in middle and high schools than in elementary
schools. According to the association Make Beats Not Beat Downs,
harassment and bullying have been linked to 75 percent of school
shooting incidents.Bullying can take many forms, and learning the
warning signs as a parent can help prevent harassment and
potentially dangerous situations.Verbal: If your child reports
being called names, being the recipient of racist, sexist or
homophobic jokes, or being spoken to in an offensive or suggestive
way, this can be a form of verbal bullying. Cyber: Social media,
email and text messaging has become a way for bullies to spread
malicious messages or photos. In the era of digital media, this
type of bullying has increased considerably.Physical: Some bullies
engage in physical attacks, including hitting, kicking, spitting,
or other forms of physical confrontation. Destroying personal
property also is considered physical bullying.
Indirect: Gossiping and spreading nasty rumours about a person
is another form of bullying. This type of bullying may go
hand-in-hand with cyber bullying.Signs your child is being
bulliedParents can recognize certain signs that their child is
being bullied at school. Bullied children frequently make excuses
to avoid going to school. While the desire to stay home is
something many children may express, those who are bullied may do
so much more frequently. Bullied children tend to avoid certain
places and may be sad, angry, withdrawn, or depressed. They may
have trouble sleeping or experience changes in appetite, and
bullied youngsters academic performance may suffer. Also, parents
may notice that children return from school missing some of their
belongings.
Signs your child is the bullyParents may not want to imagine
their children bullying other students, but bullies do exist.
Children who bully other kids have strong needs for power and
negative dominance. They may nd satisfaction in causing suffering
to others. Some signs that your child may be a bully include:
easily becoming violent with others having friends who bully others
blaming others quickly comes home with belongings
that do not belong to him or her getting in trouble with
teachers or school administrators picking on siblings not accepting
responsibility for actionsThere are ways parents can teach their
children to act properly when faced with a bully. First, parents
should explain that bullying is not the childs fault and he or she
does not deserve to be picked on. Next, parents can let children
know that being assertive but not violent with bullies may diffuse
the situation, as some bullies thrive on the fear of their victims.
If the bullying behaviour continues, the student should speak to an
adult or authority gure.Parents of bullies may need to be
especially mindful of their childrens behaviour. Counselling could
be necessary to determine what is compelling kids to bully other
students.

A BIG THANK YOU to Kelly Moores and his staff at Tim Hortons for
their most generous donation of $6,720.00 to the
Shuswap Hospital Foundation, this was the proceeds raised during
the Smile Cookie Campaign held in October. The money will go
towards the renovation of the I.C.U. (intensive care unit)
and Chemo Therapy unit at Shuswap Lake General Hospital.
shuswapoutdoors by Hank ShelleyBack in the 1960s-70s, game
wardens Don Ellis (Kelowna), Alan Frisby (Vernon), and George
Lines (Revelstoke), relied on gut feelings, instinct, and working
alone, when in a jam. Too, back into the 1980s, conservation
officers and fishery officers worked alone, on long enforcement
patrols, emergency night calls outs, game/salmon/hunter checks,
with COs. Their only help; their truck radiophone, then the cell
phone. Fortunately, in the mid 1990s, the RCMP channel was allowed,
and many of their members thoroughly enjoyed helping out with take
downs, chas-es through the bush of poachers, and arrest-ing the bad
guys. Enderby members Kerri/Gord/R. Forand (Armstrong)/Tomma helped
me out a num-ber of times at night,
when things got out of hand on the Shuswap river during salmon
season. About 2001, for health and safety
reasons, night patrols consisted of two offi-cers, which reduced
the stress level, and helped in compliance issues. Many times with
traffic stops on a bush road, during hunting season, youll see a
pick-up approaching, just as your partner activated the emergency
lights, and hunters quickly ejected rounds from
their rifles. Road blocks: we, along with National Parks
war-dens, COs, RCMP members, and Fish
and Wildlife officers, held annual checks at Rogers P a s s ,
Greenwood , and Jasper National Park. These checks resulted in a
multitude of v a r i o u s charges. Tow trucks lined up to take
vehi-cles from pro-
hibited drivers. Contraband and/or drugs were seized on
consensual searches.Salmon, crab, and oys-ters were taken on
over-limits. It was an estimated 3-4 tons of sockeye alone, headed
to Alberta on a sum-mer weekend. So now, we go from the serious
nature of the enforce-ment aspect of road checks, to a humorous
roadside check, down in the US of A. I hope youll enjoy a good
chuckle on this one, although a bit bizarre. An Arizona patrol
offi-cer pulled over a Harley rider for going over the posted
speed. The officer asked the rider for his name,-Fred, he replied.
The officer then said,Fred who? Just Fred the biker replies. The
offi-cer, being in a good mood, thought he just might give Fred a
warning ticket, if he can get the guys last name. The officer once
again asks Fred for his last name, now think-ing he may have a nut
case on his hands. So, Fred, let me have your last name. So Fred
says, its a long story, so stay with me and Ill explain. The
offi-cer settled back on his patrol motorcycle, let down the kick
stand, and began to adhere to Freds story. I was born Fred Johnson.
All
through school, I got real good grades, and upon graduation from
high school, wanted to become a doctor. Went to college, medical
school, internship, and residency and got my degree. I was now Fred
Johnson, MD. Got bored at being a doctor, so enrolled into a school
of dentistry, which was now my dream. Went all the way through
school, graduated, and began a dental practice. I was now Fred
Johnson, MD DDS. Got tired of looking into peoples mouths, working
with drills, and all that stuff, but my assistant was a pretty
younger thing, so started to fool around with her. Oh, now, it was
bad news. She gave me VD. So now Im Fred Johnson MD DDS with VD. It
wasnt long, before the AMA found out about my VD and took away my
MD. Now, the ADA was very con-
Road blocks and traffic stops
cerned about my VD and took away my DDS so I was left just Fred
Johnson, with VD. Then the VD took away my Johnson so now my name
is just Fred! The officer doubled over in laugh-ter, tears running
down his face. Hed heard some hilarious stories and excuses from
driv-ers hed stopped over time, but he just couldnt wait to tell
Freds story to the other officers at their police station.
Here and There in The Shuswap
Another great turn out happened last Saturday night, the 13th,
for the Salmon Arm fish and game fundraiser, dinner, and dance. The
proceeds going to enhancing wildlife projects through out the
Shuswap region. In combination with the
Chase fish and game club, its possible enhancement work will be
done on Cedar creek, to remove the beaver dam and brush out the
walking trail along the creek. Working with DFO come spring, to
place regulation signs at launch sites on Mara, Big Shuswap, Little
Shuswap, Shuswap river, and S. Thompson rivers explaining to
anglers bait bans, bar-bless hooks and catch retentions. Remember,
a land fit for wildlife is a land fit for people, so keep a sharp
eye out for polluters, those who dump garbage on side roads, and
who are fish hogs on the ice or out on the water!
Letters to the EditorOur practice was recently informed of the
article entitled Whiplash in the Lakeshore News on
January 29th. We feel that the physiotherapy profession has been
misrepresented and would like to respond. The article leads the
reader to believe that the referenced study from 2004 published in
the Journal of Whiplash and Associated Disorders was comparing
chiropractic treatments to physiother-apy treatments and the
authors take-home message was that the study supported the use of
chiro-practic spinal adjustments in the treatment of whiplash. In
fact, the study was completed entirely by physiotherapists and was
designed to compare different types of physiotherapy treatment.
Furthermore, due to design flaws and year of publication, the
article is now considered dated and of relative low quality.
Research has come a long way in 12 years, and physiotherapy
treatment has progressed with it. All health care providers are
professionally and ethically responsible to provide treatment based
on the best available evidence to date. A recent Cochrane Review
(2015) of 51 studies supports active rehabilitation for patients
with neck pain, and in particular, neck and shoulder strengthening
exercises. However, the most successful treatment protocol
generally involves a num-ber of techniques and approaches used in
combination. To summarize the current high quality research,
optimal treatments for managing neck pain and whiplash injuries
should involve a progres-sive strengthening program with a short
course of manual therapy such as mobilizations, manipula-tions and
soft-tissue release techniques as well as well-timed, accurate
patient education.
We often share in the treatment of patients with chiropractors
and other health professionals in town and value the relationship
we have with them. It should never be a question of which
individ-ual health profession is better, but rather what is the
best care plan for each individual patient. We believe that the
best quality care involves a multidisciplinary approach where all
team members work in communication to provide the most up-to-date
treatment available.
We are more than happy to provide references to the most current
research on request and any questions may be directed to us at Live
Well Physiotherapy.

WHIPLASH: EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENT
In the February 7th edition of the Lakeshore News, a letter to
the Editor column, a J. Muir of Canoe tells us how the left leaning
media are in bed with the federal Liberals. All we ever hear is how
bad the Conservatives were and are? The words from J. Muir are the
absolute truth and it is encouraging to hear from the clear
thinkers around the Shuswap. The local media are out of control. We
need to hear the truth from people like J. Muir to remind us we are
not always told the truth by the media. Many have asked over the
years why the Lakeshore News and other newspapers do not have any
right of center
