Rick MunroSpecial to Midweek

On June 9, 40 beautiful sailboats will race into Comox harbour completing the second leg of the

2013 Black Press Van Isle 360 International Yacht Race.

These sail racing machines – some 70 feet in length – are easily seen from the marina boardwalk

and may be visited on the docks once safely moored. They are a sight to behold under sail and great fun to see up close – and the public is invited.

This international

race has been run since 1999 and developed from the crazy idea of a few rabid catamaran sailors to what is clearly one of the most respected and exciting yacht races on the entire west coast of North America.

The race starts on June 8 in Nanaimo and circumnavigates the whole of Vancouver Island over 14 days, stopping at 10 ports in the process. The city fathers, along with the residents of each port of call, most often organize a reception for the nearly 400 sailors and support crew whose arrival times are somewhat spread out through the afternoon; but prize-giving and welcoming speeches are usually at

6 p.m.Leg 3, June 10

runs from Comox to Campbell River, starting at 9 a.m. The awards presentation will be in or near the Rip Tide Pub in Campbell River at 6:45 p.m.

Leg 4, June 11 goes from Deepwater Bay just north of Campbell River to Hardwicke Island.

Leg 5, June 12 takes sailors to Telegraph Cove. Awards will be on the boardwalk near the whale museum at 6:45 p.m.

Leg 6, June 13 leads from Telegraph Cove to Hardy Bay off the government dock in downtown Port Hardy.

Leg 7, June 14 takes sailors from Port Hardy to Winter Harbour.

For many years, the reception in the Comox Marina was organized by the Comox Valley Yacht Club, but this year that honour has fallen to the Comox Bay Sailing Club and their team is hard at work in preparation. Commodore Andrew Walther said, “No major problems have been encountered,” and that the most significant item, that of finding moorage for 40 large sailing vessels in an otherwise full marina, has been resolved.

Reception committee member and CBSC activist, Rick Tae, has negotiated that all the racing vessels will be together in the private

marina – located just below where the Edgewater once stood, and that the gates will be open to welcome visitors.

With more and larger racing boats competing each year, the competition becomes keener and the level of community participation and mutual support gets higher.

An interesting example of such participation is occurring in the Comox Valley with the arrival of the fleet this year: the private marina is donating the proceeds of the moorage fees to the Children’s Hospital Foundation. Private marina owners

Opportunity to Comment On BC Ferries’ Proposal For New Vessels

The British Columbia Ferry Commission, the independent regulator of BC Ferry Services Inc., is seeking public comment on BC Ferries’ proposal to replace vessels on Route 9 (Tsawwassen – Southern Gulf Islands) and Route 17 (Powell River-Little River/Comox).

BC Ferries has submitted an application under Section 55 of the Coastal Ferry Act seeking the commissioner’s approval of the major capital expenditure necessary to acquire three new vessels to replace the Queen of Burnaby and the Queen of Nanaimo both of which are near the end of their service lives and are scheduled for retirement in fiscal 2017.

Under Section 55 of the Act, the commissioner may approve a major capital expenditure if the proposed expenditure is reasonable, prudent, and consistent with the current Coastal Ferry Services Contract, and any long term capital plan established by the ferry operator.

Click on “What’s New” at www.bcferrycommission.com for a copy of BC Ferries’ application and Section 55 Application Guidelines established by the commissioner.

Comments or submissions can be sent by email to [email protected] or by mail to BC Ferry Commission, PO Box 9279 Stn Prov Govt, Victoria BC, V8W9J7.

Deadline for public comments is June 17, 2013. Comments submitted to the commission may be published on our website.

It is time to dispel some medical myths that I find myself clarifying in my practice on a daily basis.

n Myth: Flaxoil provides EPA and DHA essential fatty acids.

Flaxoil is a plant-based oil that contains

alpha linolenic acid, a type of omega 3 essential fatty acid, but it does not contain EPA and DHA essential fatty acids. The body does convert alpha linolenic acid into EPA and DHA but this is very inefficient and one tablespoon

of Flaxoil may yield the production of about 300 mg of EPA and DHA. The only way to get the 3,000 mg of EPA and DHA that is required for its protective effects into your diet every day is to take a fish oil supplement by the tablespoon or to

eat fish five days per week. The advantage of fish oil is that the good brands have been purified of dioxins, PCB’s and mercury.

n Myth: Elevated serum B12 levels in the blood are harmful.

Blood testing is not an accurate evaluation of B12 status. I like

to see serum B12 levels at 600 or more. It is a water soluble vitamin and is always prescribed along with a complete B complex. The best way to evaluate B12 status is through the cerebral spinal fluid and this is obviously not done. So continue to take your B12 if you are getting benefit from it. I find it is great for sleep, memory, vertigo, neuropathy, fatigue.

n Myth: Soy is harmful for those who have or have had breast cancer because it contains estrogen.

In 2011, data from the Women’s Healthy Eating and Living study (WHEL) were used to examine the effect of soy intake on breast cancer prognosis

in 3,088 breast cancer patients who were followed for 7.3 years. As soy isoflavone intake increased,

the risk of breast cancer-related death decreased. This is the third epidemiologic study to report: no adverse effects of soy on the prognosis

of breast cancer: it does not counteract with the effects of tamoxifen and it may in fact provide potential benefits in decreasing risk of recurrence or death from cancer. I recommend non GM and organic soy to avoid exposure to herbicides and pesticides. Isoflavones are “estrogen-like” molecules that are 400 times weaker than

the estrogen hormone made in the body. It can weakly modify estrogen receptors and that is why some women find it helpful for hot flushes. Certainly some people have allergies to soy and thus it should be avoided. Its ingestion by young children should also be avoided.

n Myth: Vitamin E increases my risk of death from all causes.

The vitamin E used in the study was alpha-tocopherol and did not contain the important gamma tocopherol and other tocopherols that are found in the natural vitamin E molecule that provides the health benefits for the cardiovascular system.

Scott Stanfield Black Press

CUMBERLAND — Gwyn Sproule is on her “second incarnation” as a teacher after spending about two decades planting trees in various corners of B.C.

The Cumberland councillor started out as a Grade 1 teacher in Sheffield, England, but decided to put teaching on hold when she heard about treeplanting in Canada. Backed by a “romantic image” of earning a living in the forests of B.C., she and a friend packed their bags and moved overseas.

Her first home was a cabin in Likely in the Interior, where she landed her first treeplanting job. The year was 1977.

Treeplanting is a combination of hard work and precision. Workers face fines if there are too many or too few trees in a plot, or if trees are planted out of line.

“That can be discouraging when you’ve already worked hard,” Sproule said. “Morale just plummets …you have to be tough.”

Barring a serious injury, treeplanters have to carry on, regardless of weather conditions.

“There’s no shelter from the storm,” she said, recalling wilted sandwiches and rain falling into her thermos of tea during lunch breaks.

After her time in Likely, Sproule worked in the Canim Lake area near 100 Mile House where she met her husband Jamie, who was the camp cook. The couple later moved to Cumberland. They live near Camp Road, which is something of a magnet for retired treeplanters.

“A good chunk of Camp Road is connected with treeplanting,” said Sproule, who guesses about half the Cumberland

population came to the village through treeplanting.

She recalls an influx of planters in the ‘70s and each decade thereafter.

“We are part of that first wave of the ‘70s,” Sproule said.

Back then, Camp Road houses sold for $15,000.

Years later, some of the children of Camp Road planters would purchase property and remain in the neighbourhood.

The Sproules lived the treeplanting life about 20 years, raising their children in places like Revelstoke and Golden, both of which are grizzly bear country.

Some camps had day care.

“I used to say it’s like school without the teachers,” Sproule said. “I’d definitely say it was a tribal way of life, and you get to know people well in those camps.”

Decades back, workers were expected to plant at least 1,000 trees a day. These days it’s 2,000 or 3,000.

Sproule planted in and around Cumberland, as well as Mount Washington and Union Bay, where she was once surrounded by a wolf pack.

“Whenever there’s clearcut logging around Cumberland

it’s good for tree planters because then they can get to work close to home,” she said, recalling a crew that would land contracts from Hancock or Comox Timber.

The coastal tree plant season runs from about February to late-April, which can be wet and miserable. Planters then move to the Interior in May or June and work through the summer until it gets too hot. While Interior terrain is rolling with some logging debris, coastal planters deal with steep terrain covered in slash.

“It’s a healthy

lifestyle,” Sproule said. “And they can’t find machines to do the work.

“We’ve always worked in treeplanting and raised our kids. It was a lot of fun for them, really. I think kids ultimately like tribal life. They had lots of uncles and aunties.”

At 40, Sproule called it quits on her treeplanting career and returned to teaching. Her hiatus from the classroom might have been a “break” from children, but even her worst day as a teacher on call is not as challenging as her worst day of treeplanting.

email: [email protected] As we get closer to June some nice size salmon are coming in from Campbell River. The � shing hasn’t come easy but the � shing guides are catching � sh close to 21 pounds. Andrew Dartez hooked into a 17.4 lb salmon, Joshua Towsend 18.9 lb, Philip Blondel 20.8 lb and Kerry Williams 20.6 lb. South of Campbell River, the waters at Bates Beach and Kitty Coleman are producing some nice catches of salmon. Locals have also � shed Miracle Beach with success. When new � shing products come out do they catch more � shermen than � sh? L.E.D. lures have been out in this area for about a year and anglers who try new lures are reporting good catches of halibut, ling cod, red snapper and

rock cod. The lethal weapon is made of rubber and anglers who have � shed this lure reported good

catches of ling cod. When a small freshwater lake gets 10 boats midweek, some good � shing is being had. Spider lake is shallow and trout and bass can be caught on any given day. Try trolling a black � y and � sh to 13 inches can be landed on light tackle. Last year at the Perry Assu and Charlie Henderson Memorial Trout Derby, some � sh came in close to 3 pounds. The trout derby is held this year at Buttle and the Upper Campbell Lake on June 8th and 9th. Stocked Lake Behind Echo Lake

Helps to activate naturally millions of stem cells from our own bone marrow. Theincrease in stem cells released from the bone marrow into the blood stream have the potential tobecome other types of tissue cells with specialized function. Stem cells will multiply and are ableto become heart cells, liver cells or any other organ. Located everywhere in our body, stem cellsare even under our skin layered between the epidermis and dermis. This is why an increase instem cells under our skin may help to create a more youthful cell that would replenish elastinand collagen and thus may make us look younger. If our bone marrow does not produce enoughstem cells this can result in many illnesses, especially a weak heart, kidneys, liver, pancreas, infact all healthy functions of our body are decreased. Sufficient stem cells in our body have agreat potential of self-repair and the ability to rejuvenate tissues. <Women looking for anti-aging help! We all want to slow down aging. After using a bottle of Bell Stem Cell Activator#63 my skin seemed smoother and brighter. My hair looked healthier. It seems to have acleansing effect. I’m delighted. Leona McCormick, 50, Clgary, AB < All around healingeffect! The first thing I noticed after starting Bell Stem Cell Activator #63 was that my skin feelsfirmer and stronger.

The entrepreneurial spirit runs through Yana Hempler.

She has sold products through a multi-level marketing company, competed online in a national great ideas and mentorship contest and recently graduated with a bachelor of commerce degree – specializing in entrepreneurship and marketing – from the Peter B. Gustavson School of Business at the University of Victoria, earning four straight Black Press business scholarships along the way.

A late-March post on her Twitter account (@yhempler) gives a glimpse into her outlook on life: “When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe that’s when you will be successful.”

She’s a fan of

Canadian entrepreneur and Dragon’s Den regular panelist W. Brett Wilson, as well as Donald Trump.

But don’t let the apparent focus on business fool you. It’s fitness, health and community that hold her heart.

She’ll combine all three in Run for Their Lives, a 495-kilometre run from Port Hardy to Victoria in aid of three Greater Victoria charities.

“I like to challenge myself, and running and fitness are my biggest passions,” says the 23-year-old Saanich resident, who is a certified trainer and blogs on health and fitness. “There’s nothing more rewarding than knowing that I can help people at the same time.”

Hempler, a 2008

graduate of North Island Secondary School in Port McNeill, plans to start the run there May 20. She hopes to run a marathon a day, about 42 km, for two or three days straight, rest for a day, then resume her pace.

“I’m thankful to be able to run 40 kilometres at a time,” she says.

Last weekend, she peeled off a 30-km training run, a regimen she plans to ease back on soon, as she is also training for the May 5 BMO Vancouver Marathon. Last fall, she ran her first GoodLife Fitness Victoria Marathon.

“The biggest thing with distance running is to be patient and not increase the distance too quickly,” she says.

CLASS SLOP

is no sudden crazy idea. Hempler has been thinking about tackling a major run for a few years.

Her running background goes back much further. Distance training was a daily routine at school in her hometown of Novgorod, Russia. She

began competing in track upon moving to Alberta in Grade 5. She developed into a top high school runner in northern Alberta before moving to the North Island.

She counts Terry Fox as a major inspiration, having discovered the Terry Fox Run during her

school days in Alberta. Even then she liked the idea that she could help a charity while working on her running skills.

“I kind of missed out on the deadline for the GoodLife Fitness Marathon charity (program),” she says, explaining her desire to make her Island

run a fundraiser. She has a connection to all three charities: she has volunteered for the Mustard Seed food bank, a roommate volunteered with the B.C. SPCA and a classmate was a summer intern at Recreation Integration Victoria.

Doug Nutting,

executive director for RIV, said his organization is “thrilled” to be one of the charities Hempler targeted.

“Given the economy and what it’s like to be a non-profit, anytime we can generate some extra revenue, it’s greatly appreciated,” Nutting

said.Money provided

from the run will allow RIV to send children and youth to summer day camps, provide one-on-one support for children who need specialized help to engage in recreational activities, and defray the cost of training volunteers, he added.

Hempler is soliciting corporate sponsorships, as well as encouraging individual donations.

Individuals can donate Hempler’s cause through her page at Canada Helps. Corporate sponsors may contact her directly at [email protected].

Riding a bike all the way from Vancouver to Banff – 1200

kilometres in nine days in the GearUp 4 CF (cystic fibrosis) is

ambitious.You might wonder

why anyone would undertake this challenge. Krista Houston, 30-year-old helicopter pilot for Grizzly Helicopters is determined to complete this ride. She is doing it to help her friend Kim Wood (Black) who has cystic fibrosis.

“I watch Kim struggle everyday to breathe, to survive and I know the incredible courage and strength she has – I want to make a difference in her life and for all those children and young adults who have CF. I know I will have to dig deep to find the strength and stamina to complete the ride. It is only for nine days - Kim finds the strength to fight CF everyday!”

Houston will be joining 21 other riders also participating

in this great Cystic Fibrosis Canada fundraising event which begins June 22.

Houston says, “I am counting on the support of friends, family and even

strangers to help me raise as much money as possible so we can find a cure or better treatments for CF. I want nothing more than for my friend, Kim to have the same quality of life that you and I enjoy.

By raising funds for

the GearUp I can help make this happen. By making a donation to my ride you can help too.”

Cystic Fibrosis is the most common fatal genetic disease affecting Canadian children and young adults. There is no cure for CF. It causes a build up of thick mucus in the lungs leading to severe respiratory problems which can make breathing difficult. Meanwhile, mucus and protein build-up in the digestive tract results in extreme difficulty digesting and absorbing adequate nutrients from food. The effects of cystic fibrosis are most devastating in the lungs.

Wood and others who have CF must endure hours of physiotherapy and inhaled medications daily to help clear the secretions from their lungs and keep

a lid on chronic lung infections. Wood also has CF related diabetes and uses an insulin pump and strict dietary controls. She takes about 60 pills a day to help her body absorb the nutrition required to fight her illness.

“It would mean the world to me to see a cure or control for this disease,” said Houston.

Joining Houston for the first few days will be her husband Daryl Barnes. Also on the ride will be Michael Hamilton, 25, who has cystic fibrosis. Hamilton grew up in Campbell River and along with his father Neal, volunteers for Cystic Fibrosis Canada’s Campbell River Chapter.

To help sponsor Houston or Hamilton, donations to Cystic Fibrosis Canada can be dropped off at Outdoor Addictions or online at www.cfvancouver.ca and follow the links for Gearup4CF 2013.

PROCESS

Most mattresses out there are made from foams, chemicals and other synthetic materials that can really compromise your health. Many manufacturers of "Natural" mattresses still include harmful foam fillers and chemical fire retardants in their

beds, which can off-gas toxic petrochemicals and funky odors. You are literally breathing in poison while your body is trying to rejuvenate.

At Sprout we prefer to make superior long lasting mattresses from all natural components, without the use of any foam fillers or harmful chemicals . Natural means materials that come from nature, from the earth. So you can rest comfortably knowing
